On May 21, 1946, physicist Louis Slotin was performing a high stakes experiment known as “tickling the dragons tail” at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. Slotin was using a 6.2 kilogram plutonium core, later known as the Demon Core, to establish the exact point of criticality. He was manually lowering a beryllium tamper over the core using only the blade of a flathead screwdriver to maintain a tiny gap that allowed neutrons to escape. The horror began when the screwdriver slipped

These thieves broke into my car. I set up hidden cameras to record them when they discover the package they stole is actually my new brand new Exploding Glitter Bomb trap. Merry Christmas ya filthy animals! | Mark Rober

Vêtu de noir et cagoulé, son visage est invisible, ne laissant entrevoir que ses yeux. Son intelligence est évidente, ayant tout prévu, même nos questions. #HumanBomb #Menace #Explosifs #Intelligence #Tension | Loyalty Business Center | Facebook

CIA Targeter: "We first talked about what they call the invisible bomb in the newsletter. It was Al-Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula, the branch in Yemen, and they were basically showing it off. The video got taken down right away, and I think most people in the U.S. didn't even see it. So, like TSA completely ignored putting out the actual piece of the video that mattered. And the big piece of the video is teaching terrorists how to make a bomb that goes through a magnetometer." #crime #truecrime #c

Explicación: En 1946, el físico Louis Slotin trabajaba en Los Alamos con un núcleo de plutonio llamado "el núcleo del demonio". Para medir su punto crítico ( ), usaba dos semiesferas de berilio que envolvían el material, separadas apenas por un destornillador. Durante el experimento, la herramienta resbaló y las esferas se cerraron. Un destello azul llenó la sala: el plutonio había alcanzado la criticidad. Slotin logró abrirlas ensequida, salvando a los demás, pero recibió una dosis letal de rad
