A YouTuber explores the Chernobyl zone in 2013, takes a gamma spectrum of a hot reactor fuel fragment, and jokes about a radioactive ant bite. It is a hands-on amateur look at radiation in the exclusion zone.

Cited as an example of Chernobyl YouTuber content and of casual handling of radioactive material.

I wonder why there aren't more pictures and videos of Fukushima. For Chernobyl, we even have youtubers now! ▶ this video link

Genuine question from someone that doesn't understand. Is she exposing herself to more radiation than is safe? Is there a very high likelihood she's going to make herself sick? I watched this one ▶ this video and she seems to be pretty callous with that hot particle.
