    Majoring in nuclear mechanical engineering, and our teacher also mentioned another great one: Man removing control rod has to insert it a bit first, causes prompt criticality, and literally gets pinned to the ceiling, with only 1 of the 3 workers NOT immediately dying due to the superheated gas and metal being sprayed, instead dying shortly after responders arrived.

    well maybe instead we could try piling on reflectors one at a time, so that it can't just go promptcritical from a screwdriver slippin- wait what do you mean you tried that already? Oh.
