It’s still safer than a meth lab.

Oh, from the sounds of it, the guy was running a meth lab and consuming his own product.

Sounds like a subcritical assembly using Americium as an alpha source to generate fast neutrons from beryllium

I watched a story about a kid who took apart smoke detectors and other things to get enough material to make a small nuclear reactor. The government took everything away after he got sick . Wonder if it’s the same kid. Can’t be too many people doing that.
