Interesting question: could you survive swallowing a 1mL plutonium ball? Because the LD50 of a 200lb/91kg human is about that amount of caffeine (20g).

- danieltillett 10y agoWhy we don't have any human data on the LD50 of plutonium, it is not likely to be any more toxic than uranium which has a LD50 of around 5g for the soluble salts. A 20g plutonium ball should be harmless if swallowed. 20g of caffeine on the other hand won't be pleasant.
