But it won't. Radioactive fearmongering is much more popular.

Worst case scenario, people nearby the plant will have to take iodine pills and it will take some time to clean up.

No, worst case scenario is that we never build another nuclear plant again. Instead we build a huge number of coal plants that belch more radioactive material into the atmosphere every day compared to to the current and likely release from the failed nuclear plant.

No, the worst case scenario is Tokyo being ground zero for a Nal'garrian near-C planet cracker.

Seriously. No sense of scale whatsoever.

I should probably have my head checked, because I find myself in complete agreement with Nikov.

The worst case scenario involves the fallout turning the Japanese into super mutants, triggering a mutant invasion similar to a WWII alt history comic.

So yea, what Nikov said. No sense of scale.

The worst case scenario is that on some small scale, something happening in Japan is visible in space. Aliens with hyper advanced sensors detect this and fly on over to shit lasers onto us.

But that's okay, because Gojira will turn up to fry those aliens before taking the slaughter to the rest of the Earth.

The worst case scenario is that the energys given off from these plants exploding are felt by Cthulhu, and he comes and pays us a visit.

The worst case is exactly half the proton in all of earth decaying simultaneously converting the entire thing into pure energy and roasting half the galaxy.

And this is why we shouldn't have nuclear power plants.

First of all, what? No, seriously, What? Jeeze...

Second, converting 100% of the earth's mass to energy will 'only' kill everything from here to Alpha Centauri. (We got bored in IRC once) That is, the blast wave has an energy of about 6kg of tnt per square meter of surface area by the time it reaches AC.

Hey, quick question. If the sun could convert tiny amounts of matter to huge amounts of energy, then is it possible to convert huge amounts of energy to matter?
