Hi, I’m Tyler, welcome to my channel!
TL;DR
☢️nuclear nerd
⁉️debunking common misconceptions
🖥reacting to your favorite movies, shows & games
I am a nuclear engineer with a little over 10 years of experience in the nuclear power industry from engineering to operations to maintenance to emergency response to large capital projects. I don’t claim to know everything Nuclear, but I can certainly share some knowledge.

The first video is a prime example of useless content made by people who read one Wikipedia page and think their insight is at all relevant to put out into the world, with brainless movie clips to try and boost people’s attention since he knows he’s full of it/too d**b to know better, and nobody’s paying attention to him anyways
Weather forecast? Jojo reference!!!
Love you so much ❤❤
I've also heard of Gold in seawater. But, again, the cost of recovering it makes that unlikely. I wonder if used fracking waste water could have substantial amounts of Uranium & Thorium in it. It frequently has disturbingly high amount of Radium in it, so Uranium is likely part of it. But, it also has Arsenic & Barium in it.
could you review the last week tonight episode about nuclear waste please? kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKuNlKdpmM2tpbg.html
INPO approved!
"Using nuclear reactors for large scale alchemy." You heard it here first folks
Dyatlov in Chernobyl is another one who thought the "more power" route works and looks what happened there!!!
Another issue people didn't pick up on is that the missiles aren't launched by firing the rocket motor, that happens well after they leave the sub.
11:38 Let's see how long it lasts now. If it keeps up the tradition, it shouldn't be whole by 2100, if we are still around by then :D
TikToks raise MY risk of cancer. Primarily brain cancer.
I agree with the idea of teaching math concepts with diagrams. I'm a huge proponent of teaching math using software like something like Vpython. You learn the concepts, learn to build it, and can visualise the concept.
Well, you're close to the use of gold in terms of "keeping things still", gold is actually biologically inert, meaning it doesn't react with anything like stomach acid, blood cells, anything that the body might do to cause things to move around or destroy it. So it allows whatever is put in there, to simply stay there, so long as nothing external causes it to shake loose or whatever.
I think this lock is meant as a reusable seal. If you pick a LOTO lock, you don't leave any obvious evidence so they made it as hard as possible to pick it. Destruction in any way leaves clear evidence that the device it was securing was tampered with.
How about licking the trinitite? Without cracking it. Would that be okay?
There is no spoon.
Yeah he lost me at the nuclear winter part. I was hoping he was going down the topic the indefinite burning of say the black and boreal forests where it would just be impossible to snuff out that it would be devastating for Europe at least and Asia.
37:54 to explain that sanding segment the most likely answer is oxidation. When he scrubbed the top layer off the heat from the rubbing immediately caused the next layer to oxidize again leaving behind that silverly aluminum oxide
How high of a CPM would be dangerous regardless of the type of radiation
The type is the most important characteristics. CPM is only useful for knowing its a low count overall (non-hazardous).
So does a high CPM still tell us anything about the radiation in general? Genuine question
Great question! CPM mainly just tells you if there is radiation there or not. CPM is useful for seeing if a surface is contaminated with radioactive particles. It is also less expensive using detectors that only measure in CPM, so this is would be useful in surveying a large area just to see where the hot spots are.
What's the scenario control room fire ever real?
I 100% support the use of nuclear energy. With that being said, I doubt I’ll ever keep around a radioactive battery 😭😭 no matter how safe
you can eat gold leaf :) don't need to eat the gold bar :)
I owe my passing grade in chemistry because of nilered
Sir Issac Newton is orange guy
I have gazed straight into the core of a reactor (through a very thick lead-infused glass window.) There was Cherenkow radiation lighting up the entire coolant pool… Respect the power of nuclear reactions!
16:43 Yeah, this is how it works in game rn. Quick flashing Slow flashing - Press ACk
The fallout TV series confirmed that Vault-Tec PLANNED to drop nukes themselves if nothing happened. It still hasn't been revealed if they actually did it or not.
What is more realistic? RBWR - roblox, or this?) For me, idk why, but RBWR looks more realistic
Supercritical co2 is also used in miscible flooding for an oil reservoir. This can change the properties of the fluids (interfacial tensions and viscosity mostly) such raise the amount of oil that can be recovered. It's also nice because pretty much nobody is opposed to putting co2 in the ground vs other chemicals like surfactants etc.
I assume that most of the missing gold is a super fine dust embedded in the sandpaper directly. There's a reason companies that work with precious metals will incinerate that sort of stuff at yend of their useful lives.
That’s crazy, at 18:08 I was drifting off to sleep and your comment ‘drifting off to sleep’ woke me up 😂😂😂
If they “knew” this material was there a year before and stopped the tracks of the owner trying to track down said material, it then lends itself to the possibility that “they” wanted this disaster to occur, maybe to test its destructive qualities upon the “lowly” working class population who they deemed fit for such experimentation. This is my conspiracy theory. Just because something is a conspiracy theory, doesn’t mean it’s not true. I say this as allegedly.
it's not like people don't inject already fungi (penicillium). if it works it works
Ancora questa domanda ormai obsoleta… certo che sì.
More mining the sea floor distopian fantasy ........... Considering the enviromental impact of mining on land what could possibly go wrong ?
To be fair a man was at both Nagasaki and Hiroshima when the bombs dropped on both these cities.
They looked like they went off on the ground. The flash just appeared that way either because, A: The flash was coming from behind the buildings., or B: It's just a TV show and there is no real logic behind what is shown,other than spectacle, and looking cool. If the content creator watched the show he would know that Vault-tec detonated the nukes themselves. Or, at least, that's what it seemed to be implying, to me. Which doesn't jive with the show being part of the same canon as the games. As, in the games, you encounter skeletons and ghouls that were Chinese soldiers during the war. Unless the idea is that Vault-tec detonated a nuke somewhere else in the world that caused the "Reds" to launch their nukes in retaliation. Which doesn't really make sense, as we don't see any missiles or anything come in and hit the city. And planes would have been intercepted. So bombers doesn't really make sense, either. Idk... Am I wrong?
Answering your question what those 3 countries have in common - well Liberia was created by US to ship back Afro-Americas after civil war, and Myanmar was once, surprise, a British colony.
What about our fusion reactors like the arc and tokamak
"less of the timey wimeyness distortions" Not that much less! A sufficiently dense neutron or quark star would let you see a blueshifted convex sky with sidereal time running in fast motion. Fast rotating neutron stars might have time doing even stranger things.
Note that rotating Neutron stars don't always deform outwards. If they are compact enough, they may form a photon sphere. A region of space so deformed by gravity that centrifugal force inverts inside, and the star's surface is concave, while the sky is convex. A rapidly spinning star under such conditions will behave very, very strangely, with its spin actively pushing it inward instead of outward.
"I wonder what terminal velocity on that thing is like" Given that there's no dense atmosphere more than centimeters from the surface, very very high. If you meant escapes velocity, also very very high. Potentially approaching light speed.
I don't think the sub would break up very high if at all. Shockingly large and weirdly shaped iron meteorites can reenter and survive. I think the inevitability of it breaking up before impact is greatly overstated.
in regards to the unusual units of measurement section, there's a unofficial unit of measurement known as the "Dominos index." How busy a Dominos within a short distance of The Pentagon is directly correlates to how much fecal matter is currently making kinetic impact with a fan blade.
interestingly there is a theory that instead of a single singularity point there is a ring inside black holes since like the earth black holes arent perfect spheres and are slightly elongated on their equators
Hi, Tyler! I found you through your reactions to styropyro and have been binge watching your channel for the past few days. I really love your thoroughness and insight along with how you connect different fields of science together (such as you explaining the inverse square law while reacting to styropyro's laser videos). I've learned many new things by watching your videos and if I see anyone in the future have misconceptions about nuclear power/science, I will refer them to your videos! Thank you for all the work you put into your content! Cheers from Texas!
will this be another lets point out the problems and not offer any solutions?
Maybe you have visited every island, but I recently heard that one island in this world has like 20 or more clans of nomadic people that live by their own rules, and laws and do not interact in any way with what we would consider the real world. So I call bullshit to every word from your mouth. We also have not touched the ocean floor in places that would crush our best submersibles. Yet we choose to explore space, which I get because it seems like a good idea to protect our planet if we can, but much of what we explore is so far away I just shake my head and ask why the fuck man doesn't have enough asteroids that you have not even found yet. Yes, "stupid humans." comes to my mind.
