This is snake oil selling at its finest. Showing these suits protect against radiation and sending to Japan. They had a cadmium source and they put a layer of this suit against it on FOX News. Showing the source was about 1000 CPM on contact with GM probe. Then with suit over source its only 100 cpm.
Yeah it cut the radiation by 10 times these people are heroes why aren't the Nuke Plants in the USA using these was the question ask.
Number 1 GM probe only one percent efficent for Gamma.
Number 2 it basically just shielded the Beta.
These people need to go to Nuke Jail or go to basic rad class. I vote nuke jail, if they sell this crap they should know it is useless.
More here Saying what heroes these people are!!!

Here is a video as silly as this suit. Nukeproof Suit!!

OOOoooooh! Think we could get them on ebay???? ROFL

I don't think the Rad class will help these people. I vote Nuke jail.

And yes you can buy it on EBAY for 1500 dollars!!!!! Here you go people Demeron nukeproof suits on EBAY!!!

Why does Demeron rhyme with Moron??
Because its named after the people who will buy them is my answer.
When I was in the Army I believe a tank had 90 percent shielding. Thats about the best nukeproof suit I know. Drive the Japan People up to the area in M-1Tanks. Do what you need to do and jump back into your tank. Then get the hell out. Even armored personnel carrier had about 80 percent shielding and can carry more people and needed items.

an M-1 tank had about 1.5 tenth-thickness of attentuation factor, as per the chart:
(http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/library/policy/army/fm/3-3-1_2/tab6-1.gif)
Extra credit question: Why does the M48 tank have a lower transmission factor (i.e. more attenuation) than the M1 abrams? ;)
-
I am so ashamed, A squid out nuked me with his chart. 90 percent just being conservative. OK I will attempt Question though,
M48 has more shielding because its armor is mostly metal versus a composite armor for M-1.
I was thinking not being a squid and all could the Japanese navy grounded one of their war ships and used the pumps on ship to pour water into the reactor.
Squids and rad workers stay in ship for shielding, just need hose.
Please I need a squid reply!!!

No problem here you go.
[spank] Go Navy Beat Army [spank]
[devious] Wait they have done that for the last 9 years. [devious]
[Flamer] Navy now leads the all-time series with a record of 55 wins, 49 losses, and seven ties. [Flamer]

This reminds me of the shields for the cell phones and computer screens.

This whaling ship has a much more awesome firesquirting apparatus up front than the standard setup on a surface combatant, since the whalers use these to keep protestors at bay:

Considering that after some time of hosing down the reactors, the highly contaminated debris will be in the water near the ship, being sucked into the intakes. Better buy the boat cheap, because it's not going in green trash when it is done >:(

that thing is AWESOME! :D
Whats going on at the bottom of the ship? It looks like its running over a surfaced submarine O.o

Now you know why they would have had you riding in the thin aluminum M577 carrier ;)
Correct on the M-1 composite armor for the lower attenuation factor.
If you want a modern tank with good steel armor for attenuation during personnel transport, I'd suggest the Merkava III.

I have tested a piece of Demron and it is worthless for shielding cesium and cobalt gamma. However it did create a big black square on the viewing screen when it went though the xray machine.
I think the best application for the stuff is underwear and bras for frequent fliers :D
