Fun fact. Polonium is actually used in industrial anti dust devices. The reason is, that the radioactivity ionizes a part of the devices wich attracts the dust, thereby removing it from the process. Another use of radioactive materials is Americium in fire alarms.
Very interesting! Sounds like another thing I'll study today :D
Fun fact #1 about your fun fact: There's a tiny button approximately 5/16" which holds a tinier piece of metal foil plated with Americium 241...the element that actually "smells" the smoke.
Fun fact #2 about your fun fact: It is in fact illegal to remove said button from smoke detectors. Why?? (See FF #3)*. It's also illegal to dispose of smoke detectors in the trash. They are radioactive due to the Am-241-therefore a hazardous material.
Fun fact #3 about your fun fact: A teen Boy Scout named David Hahn wanted an Atomic Energy badge for Scouts , so he built his own nuclear reactor in his own back yard using Am-241 buttons from smoke detectors and gas lanterns (old lantern mantles contain Thorium-another radioactive element). His story was published into a book titled "The Radioactive Boy Scout".
*The removal of the buttons are obviously illegal to prevent anything like this from happening again.
Fun fact #4 about your fun fact: Americium-241 is the only man-made radioactive element that can be readily purchased at any hardware store.
Let's just say, "DO NOT spread either on your toast."
I read in a book about radioactive materials that polonium is an extremely difficult element to produce.
@@bigverybadtom United States Nuclear Regulary Commision: "Polonium-210 is a radioactive isotope that occurs in small amounts in nature and can be made in a nuclear reactor. It has limited uses, mainly in static eliminators. In recent years, polonium made the news because of its use as a poison. Polonium was blamed for the Nov. 23, 2006, death in London of the Russian Alexander Litvinenko. It has also been mentioned as a possible cause of Yassar Arafat's death.
Polonium was discovered by Marie Curie in 1898; she later named it for her homeland of Poland. Though rare, it is found in tobacco, and in the soil and air. For industrial purposes, it is produced in milligram amounts in nuclear reactors. Only about 100 grams (a little more than 3 ounces) is believed to be produced worldwide each year. Licensed distributors import a very small amount of polonium-210 into the U.S. each year." It is a good description, and interesting, that such a little ammount is produced.
And there is also a UA-cam video, where a polonium source is used to demonstrate Alpha radiation.
"Let's hope they use that power responsibly," might be the scariest phrase I encountered today 😅🤣

PSA: Please please PLEASE do NOT use poisons for rodent control, particularly not in residential areas. Poisoned living or dead pests get eaten by predators, who subsequently get poisoned themselves. This kills people's pets. This kills endangered birds of prey. Don't use rodent poisons if you're mitigating rodents that can be accessed by predators of any kind.
Yes I wouldn't want any of my chickens to accidentally eat rat poison!
This is true and has a cascading 2ffect
Good point! I usually use traps or cats
This is true; it has become a HUGE problem.
One of the reasons I dislike rat poison, I just use my air rifle for killing rats.
P.s if your going to use rat, mice, or glue traps then use them in a room with bait and close the door, maybe even put a warning on the door. rat traps can break small animals paws and legs.
I got food poisoning from bad hotdogs that ended up being botulinum toxin. I was in the hospital for almost 4 weeks was semi paralyzed but luckily made it out with no long term ill effects. I was told by DR's that if treated early with anti-toxin the chances of living are 90% or better..

You can actually buy brushes meant for taking the static off of music records that have a very tiny amount of Polonium in them. The alpha radiation from the Polonium sort of neutralizes the static and makes it to where you can clean them easier. Firestone also used to put Polonium in spark plugs back in the early 1940's. I have a collection of those, but with a half life of less than a year, you can even detect any radiation from them anymore. Your older smoke detectors also have Americium in them as the detection source.
I remember the old Dustmaster record brushes from the early 70's. They were junk, just like the old DiscWasher brushes that claimed to reduce static charges on vinyl through humidity control.
If none of these are from ww2, historians are gonna cry
Dropping a duece, after eating day old Taco Bell, is pretty deadly.
I'm kinda confused by the use of a radioactive substance as number 1. Radioactivity is weird and the deadliness of it is a balance between intensity and duration. Shorter halflives being dangerous because they output a LOT of energy VERY quickly, but they also transmute to other things very quickly and so don't stick around. If the daughter elements are less radioactive, they don't get long to do their thing. Longer half-lives aren't quite as violently radioactive, but they stick around much longer and can continue to do damage for a long time.
Meaning that Polonium (Which isotope? 210 I assume, but Polonium has 42 isotopes and all have different half-lives) is certainly deadly but this opens the list up to countless other elements. Polonium 210 definitely is in that range where it emits absurd amounts of radiation while also sticking around for quite a while, but there are other isotopes and even other elements that decay faster and thus produce more radiation in certain time scales. This is why we have an amusing number of units involved in describing the level of radioactivity a certain thing has!
A little known fact is that there is polonium (and lead-210 with decays to bismuth which decay to polonium) in tobacco, causing smokers to inhale small radioactive traces that emit alpha radiation in the lungs. This is the main cause for lung cancer.
So, sadly, there are actually a lot of people that get exposed to polonium on a daily basis.
It should also be noted that this isn't naturally in tobacco, but a result of phosphate fertilizers.
tetrodotoxin is one of the ingredients used in the zombie powder used in Haiti to make, well, zombies. Imagine appearing dead, but being awake and able to see and hear everything... being put in a coffin, buried... and all the other fun things that happens in zombification.... don't sound like much fun to me.

Strychnine is interesting because it has been used by serial killers a lot in the 19th-20th century
Arsenic too
most familial poisonings are done with arsenic....it's much easier to get ahold of .
3:55 Strychnine doesn't work "by shutting down the nerve fibers in the spinal cord, which makes it impossible for the muscles to contract." It actually blocks the inhibitory function of the spinal cord, so as soon as any muscle is contracted, it can't STOP contracting. Strychnine is one of the most acutely painful and unpleasant ways to die because it doesn't affect the brain at all, it just makes all your muscles tighten up until you're a huge knotted cramp and either you can't breathe anymore or you die from fatigue or muscle disintegration (rhabdomyolysis).
I still can't get over how the word "coyotes" was pronounced.

Correction - apricot (and other fruit) pits do not contain cyanide as such. They contain more complex compounds, mainly amygdalin, that break down on when ingested release hydrogen cyanide.

Wait a minute, I can't tell you how many wild plum seeds I've eaten in my lifetime. Do those contain cyanide too?
Yes but you’ve almost certainly not eaten enough.
And just swallowing th seed doesn’t release the cyanide. They need to be crushed, or opened to release the cyanide.
@@bananab0ng756 well that's good to know.
Apple seeds too
@BigJohn Hansome ok? Thanks for your valuable imput.
Someone in my distant relative was making those 2 minutes noodles and god knows why they got its instant spice mix confused with rat poison(just one of the packets), actually both the packets were of same shiny silver color. Guess they made the most deadly noodles.
Reminds me of the gal (played by Lily Tomlin) in 9 to 5, when she accidentally replaced her boss's sugar substitute in his coffee with some rat poison that had a very similar packaging.
Fun fact: A human will die if they ate 150 apple seeds.
actually i think it's 8-15. Just don't eat seeds
The world record is 68

I love them, and I eat from 5 to 15 a day. Just love eating apples with seeds. It is definitely not poisonous or I should be dead

In the cyanide part, there is a correction needed:
There are two types of apricot pits: sweet (edible) and bitter.
Only the bitter pits contain cyanide.
The sweet, or non-bitter pits are perfectly fine to be consumed and are a great source of potassium.

‘Let’s hope they use that power responsibly’. I sure hope so.
The order of this list is way off, considering Tetrodotoxin TTX is about a 1000 times more potent than Cyanide when it comes to LD50. Yes, Polonium-210 is one of the most toxic substance in the world, although it still does not beat Botulinum toxin, but they are comparable in their dosages; COMPLETELY different in action.
The most confusing thing I found is that the video comparing toxins with radiation. One kills you quickly, one kills you slowly.

If Brodifacoum makes the rats blood clot, I guess it is just giving the rats a taste of their own medicine (bubonic plague reference, if you were wondering)
No, it makes it do the opposite haha
Rat's weren't the culprit for plague, it was the flea. Blaming rats is like blaming the gun that fired the bullet rather than the one who actually pulled the trigger
@@JustAnotherAccount8 But what's a bullet without something to shoot it?
@@jojo_da_poe bullets can technically fire off without a gun, but i see what you're saying. my analogy may not have been great but my point still stands
It doesn't make the blood clot, it does the opposite, it's an anti-coagulant. It's actually also a drug which is commonly prescribed by the name Warfarin. It is used to manage conditions such as atrial fibrillation. It is a drug which is being phased out slowly by more modern DOACS, but it is still odd to think that the drug which likely millions of humans worldwide still take daily was originally created as a rat poison.
These poisons are like soft drinks when you compare it to 4chan.

Polonium has been used as a neutron source in atomic bombs. When polonium comes into contact with beryllium, neutrons are emitted. These have been used to initiate and boost the chain reaction in a critical mass of U235 or Plutonium.
Tritium can be used as a boost right?
@@Milk-ml6jg Tritium combined with Deuterium have been used to boost the output of fission bombs. However, because Tritium emits a beta particle, it cannot be used to initiate a fission reaction. You need thermal neutrons to do that.
@@6NBERLS oh ok thanks
@@6NBERLS is there any other way to boost atomic bombs?
@@Milk-ml6jg A hydrogen bomb is a fission bomb boosted with Lithium Deuteride. The old method of initiating fission bombs with Polonium and Beryllium has been replaced with an electronic device that sends a burst of electrons into a target that then emits a burst of thermal neutrons. You can boost any hydrogen bomb indefinitely by adding more stages (i.e. a package containing more Lithium Deuteride with a plutonium 239 initiator core).

Apricot kernels contain amygdalin, a naturally occurring toxin that releases cyanide when it reacts with stomach enzymes.
Amygdalin is a naturally occurring compound found in certain plants like apricot pits, which when ingested by humans, is broken down by enzymes in the body to release cyanide, a highly toxic chemical; essentially, amygdalin is a precursor to cyanide, meaning it is not cyanide itself but can transform into cyanide under the right conditions.
Oh, several things that could eliminate a person. I thought the video was going to be about one deadly substance. (The most deadly one discovered.) Still very interesting though. : )

I have been telling ppl for the last 30 years that no one should die of Tetrodotoxin, and most strictly neurotoxin snake bites if they just administered rescue breathing. And now, finally someone else gets it. I have even had other big headed physicians try to negate the assertion. You understand that fentanyl toxicity can be overcome with rescue breathing as well. Take a BLS course.
I am reminded of the scene in "A Shot In The Dark" where Dreyfus says, "Give me ten men like Clouseau, and I can destroy the world."
