Tale of the Radioactive Boy Scout

"When David’s Geiger counter began picking up radiation five doors from his mom’s house, he decided that he had “too much radioactive stuff in one place” and began to disassemble the reactor. He hid some of the material in his mother’s house, left some in the shed, and packed most of the rest into the trunk of his Pontiac. Of his exposure to radioactivity he says, “I don’t believe I took more than five years off my life.”

Only in America. Don’t know if it’s true or not, but it’s quite a laugh.
