I'm unsure if he's still alive.

Several people I know owe their lives and limbs to these people. The good ones are at a level where the art and science of medicine are one and the same. Seriously, one of them actually did rocket surgery.

Khanstant posted:Sorry, still digging around the old thread archive. This came up in the context of chemical carrying truck disasters. I was just wanting to see if anyone had any examples or links to these incidents? A lazy google just brings up general russian theft lifestyle and issues with soviet nuke stuff. How does one even go about heating a home or cooking a potato once you've stolen some rad material? Just toss a hunk into the oven? If someone doesn’t beat me to it, I’ll dig up the IAEA accident reports on those incidents when I get to a real computer. Those are some fun reads I don’t remember what the dying skelly version of that smilie is

I don’t think this one is on that list, but I could be mistaken. At any rate, this poor bastard looked directly into the beam of a particle accelerator. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoli_Bugorski quote:Bugorski was leaning over the equipment when he stuck his head in the path of the 76 GeV proton beam. Reportedly, he saw a flash "brighter than a thousand suns" but did not feel any pain.[1] quote:However, Bugorski survived and even completed his Ph.D. There was virtually no damage to his intellectual capacity, but the fatigue of mental work increased markedly.[2] Bugorski completely lost hearing in the left ear, replaced by a form of tinnitus.[4] The left half of his face was paralyzed due to the destruction of nerves.[1] He was able to function well, except for the fact that he had occasional complex partial seizures and rare tonic-clonic seizures.
