What's even wilder is, that at some point I had the "pleasure" to meet someone who was a self proclaimed "expert on radioactivity". This man walked around with a stick waving it around and then measuring radioactivity in percent. He then proceeded to bury a bowl in the field to trap all sorts of radiation in there and cleanse all radioactivity from the nearby area in it. It was god damn awful to see my parents paying actual money for this man.
