Starting to look like Godzilla for real

[AMCRambler]

right, because exploding hydrogen bombs in Bikini Atoll didn't put 1,000,000 times more contamination into the Pacific than this and failed to create a godzilla thing

Alrighty then you eat the fish from Japan. I'm gonna play it safe.

I'm sure there is nothing to worry about.

I found the entry for godzilla in wikipedia interesting:

The opening scene of the Bingo Maru being obliterated by Godzilla's first attack and later scenes of survivors of other attacks being found with radiation burns, were inspired by the U.S. testing of a hydrogen bomb on Bikini Atoll. A real Japanese fishing ship, the Lucky Dragon 5, was overwhelmed when the U.S. Castle Bravo nuclear test had a yield of 15 megatons rather than the planned 6 megatons. Military personnel, island natives and several Lucky Dragon 5 crew members, persons believed to be in a zone of safety, suffered from radiation sickness and at least one died six months later. This created widespread fear of uncontrolled and unpredictable nuclear weapons, which the film makers symbolized with Gojira. The actual event played a major role in drawing attention to the hazards of nuclear fallout, and concerns were widespread about radioactively contaminated fish affecting the Japanese food supply.

Don't you know history?

The tests at Bikini produced intelligent life on the seafloor.
Sometime in the future, you'll be seing these guys down there:

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

I threw a smoke detector into a swimming pool once. Then, I had 7000 gallons of radioactive water.


OMG RADIOACTIVE WATER makes great headlines, but how radioactive? What isotopes?

You'll kill us all!

Unless the homeopathy folks are right, in which case we're all screwed.

The way it supposedly "works" is that very dilute concentrations treat what they cause known as the "law of similars", plus the more dilute the solution the more potent it is.

So we all know radiation cause cancer, but with that level of dilution you really should be thanking the Japanese, and see a rapid falloff of cancer rates on the Western Seaboard.

No one is worried about the Sydney Opera House...
