Officials: "President Putin, did you have this guy killed?" Putin: "No." Officials: "Ok, thanks. Couldn't have been you, then."

Before his death, Litvinenko said: "You may succeed in silencing one man but the howl of protest from around the world, Mr. Putin, will reverberate in your ears for the rest of your life." This seems to be coming true. What happened to him was horrible, but this gives a little hope.

I work in medical imaging and I remember learning about this case in school. Po-210 emits alpha radiation (essentially a helium atom), which really doesn't need the kind of shielding you'd think it does. In fact, Po-210 in particular can't penetrate skin from the outside. It wouldn't have set off any detectors because a plastic vial would be enough to shield it. Once ingested, the body itself serves as adequate shielding (which is probably why the doctors didn't catch it until right before he died) while causing massive internal damage to soft tissues and wiping out white blood cells. It's not a pleasant way to go.

Need to clear up some stuff on radiation poisoning around 09:12-- Polonium 210 is a radioisotope that undergoes alpha decay. Alpha particles themselves are relatively harmless because they're physically massive and don't travel well through dense material; they slow down (use up their energy) before they can really go anywhere. In that way, you can hold Polonium 210 in your hand because your skin is thick enough to stop alpha particles (and a handshake would be no issue for the same reason). Alpha radiation becomes problematic when ingested because--similarly to how it can't pass skin from the outside--it can't leave the inside of the body once consumed. It's a high energy particle, so all that energy is now on the inside, ripping electrons from its environment (in this case, the cells of the body).

@HashtagCarlyBlaugher

5 жыл бұрын

The particle has a charge, in the case of alpha radiation, it's positive (specifically the nucleus of a helium atom). Positive attracts negative, and because alpha particles are of unbalanced positive charge, they rapidly combine (by pulling from other atoms) with negative charges to create helium. The atoms the alpha particle pulls electrons from lose two electrons to balance the charge; for organic systems this causes significant damage.

Kinda funny looking back that they said "the UK govt wouldn't do that, all they have is the people" when the govt literally refused to give free school meals to children a week ago :/

Update: Dmitri Kovtun died in 2022 of COVID in a hospital, so now only Andrey Lugovoy remains at large

For some reason the idea of the spies calling the restaurant to ask the cook for help is hilarious to me. "Hello, I would like you to put this expensive poison in some tea." ... "Hello?" ... "Hellooo?"

"You've never wanted to just see... The universe just..." "... Implode?" "Yeah..." Is such raw dialogue, I love it

20:25 - "I guess I know where I'm *Putin* my money on this one.. " Can't believe Ryan didn't catch that 🤦🏻

Ryan doesn’t like the idea of isolation. *Nervously chuckles in quarantine.*

I lived right near where Litvinenko lived during his poisoning. I was 7 at the time, and my dad picked me up from school, but we came across multiple TV vans, police, people in hazmat suits and even a helicopter on our way home. We switched on the TV and saw my dad’s car on the screen and we soon figured out it was a spy poisoning. The house was blocked off by a tent and then something else for the next 4 years, with a note from the court beside the door ordering prohibition on trespassing the radioactive house. Since then it was only occupied for a year or two, but ended up empty most of the time. Spooky.

For Postmortem (or just anyone that might read this comment): there's different kinds of radiation, Polonium is specifically an alpha radioactive particle and has limited penetrative capabilities, it can only go as far as a piece of paper. However, when ingested, its metabolism by the body leads to the irradiation of all cells in it's path and that is what leads to illness. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that all those 700+ people exposed to polonium did not fall ill as they did not ingest it, they were protected by their clothes basically stopping the radioactive particles from entering their bodies Fun Fact: 1g of Polonium is enough to kill 50 million people and injure 50 million more but only when ingested

An interesting question (I'm not a health physicist, so take my words with a grain of salt). I'd say unless it's a very very deep cut, you still have many (relatively) thick layers of skin in the way that would prohibit the radiation from an alpha particle to penetrate the body.

Technically it’s the FSB, though the KGB technically exists in Belarus so you’re not 100% wrong. They’re a strong ally of Russia so they could, in theory, kill them because Russia could suggest they do that. That is of course, if Russia did poising Litvinenko. Poor guy either way. What a nasty way to go.

This it the most solved “Unsolved” ever

In my radiochemistry class, we had a homework assignment which involved comparing the radiation dose he had absorbed with the background dose experienced by the average person and the deadly dose. It is astonishing. Also note how heavy metal toxicity wasn’t mentioned. I’d hazard a guess that he would not be alive even if we took the damaging effects of that high a dose of radiation out of the equation.

I honestly can't believe Lugovoy and Kovtun are still at large seriously they should be on watch list in the world with a massive bounty on their heads

I learnt about this case in physics! We were learning about the three types of radiation. Polonium 210 emits alpha radiation that can't pass through paper and definitely not skin however once it gets inside of the body it's ridiculously dangerous becuase it can't get out and alpha radiation is the most ionising so it slowly destroyed his insides over time with no way to remove it.
