It’s theoretically possible, some experts think no level of radiation is “safe”. Yet, it’s so improbable that the risk of developing cancer from a single banana is indistinguishable from background noise. You get a far higher dose of radiation just from living on earth.
This fun infographic from xkcd shows a comparison of doses, and just how low a banana ranks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_equivalent_dose#/media/File:Radiation_Dose_Chart_by_Xkcd.png
It would have to be the “perfect shot” of a particle hitting a cell to cause DNA damage that wasn’t repairable. And you would need to be extremely immunocompromised.
If you were in such a position to get cancer from eating a single banana, you would likely already get it from living life.


I remember the “bleach and ammonia diamonds”. Fucked up


PTFE and some others are considered chemically inert. Other PFAS are mostly chemically inert.
Carbon-fluorine bonds are extremely strong. If these weren’t mostly chemically inert, they wouldn’t be “forever” chemicals. They would readily degrade and it wouldn’t be an issue.


Asbestos is chemically inert, as are PFAS, but both are understood to be pretty bad for you
All that is required is reflexes faster than ours to make them insanely difficult to hit.
Better aim, stabilization while moving, incredible hivemind-esque team coordination.
It’s not even going to be fair.
Society wasn’t even ready for a waymo to kill a cat
