Thanks user.
Just broke a small tritium vial, and got a good deep breath in directly adjacent to it
>Will I die?
Depends on how you look at it.
So you're saying there is a good chance I could get super powers?
If by "super powers" you mean cancer then yes. Yes you could.
There's a latency period following exposure to ionizing radiation in quantities significant enough to increase your risk of cancer.
But there is also evidence that low doses, even in addition to nominal background levels, can yield health benefits, and decrease rates of local cancer occurrence
You were not exposed to enough ionizing radiation to cause any increase in cancer risk.
Tritium is the lowest-energy beta emitter, with a maximum range of less than 5mm in air.
Biological half life is only 10 days anyway, and if you're really worried, just drink more water than you would typically to flush it out more quickly.
If the tumor grows around the ventral tegmental area in the right spot, it will cause your brain to constantly release dopamine which will make you high and happy all the time until you die. But all the other 99,9999% outcomes of getting cancer will give you a painful and slow death with slowly shutting down your systems.

I heard something like that too. It's like body is getting used to radiation to defend a higher dose later on. I haven't seen any evidence or know exactly how it works though. But since cancer is something that the body creates due to DNA damage(atleast in most cases) it might be true.
I suggest you write your will op
Thanks
