One of those "They'd never let someone write this in a movie - nobody would believe it" moments. As a young naval lieutenant, Jimmy Carter was part of a team that dismantled a nuclear reactor in Chalk River after a partial meltdown. Radiation levels were so high that they worked in ninety second shifts - ad in each shift absorbed more than a year's worth of radiation. His urine was still radioactive six months later.
