+Will Drucker LOL, no...but I and many of my mates would be trotted off to the local Buster Brown shoe store to get quality shoes ( and they were). We would stand at a 'foot X-Ray machine, insert our feet, and could look through a 'peering-slot' and wiggle our toes and see our foot bones, this was done, per the mfg. in order to show the kids and the parents that our feet were getting a 'proper fit' with their shoes. Just LOL, truthfully, the 1st time I ever had seen a geiger counter was when a storm-of-a-Hellaballu in the consumer watch-dogs concerning the safety of this machine on the feet of children. So, in order to combat the 'vile' things being said by consumer protectionist, Ever store had a geiger counter to wave over the feet of said 'little' customers, in order to comfort the fears that the parents might have. Hell, me and some of my buddies would spend some time ever chance we could get, to insert our feet into the machine, just to watch our toes 'wiggle'. Also, do you, or any one else out there remember when in the early 60's some mfgs. were using a Blast of Radiation on kitchen tableware, and office items, during there manufacturing process, in order to permanentely stablize the paint or color application. In 1968, had a tour of an IBM exhibit that 'Touted' the 'Safe Use & Application' of Radiation 'zapping' for everything from #2 yellow pencils, to Meats and Vegetables in order to pro-long their shelf life..Dude, like today's Marketers, they did some 'crazy shit'.

You do know that granite rock and seawater are both radioactive, right? People in New Hampshire live on top of a bunch of granite, and it doesn't hurt them. Even better, everyone who lives in Denver Colorado gets twice as much radiation exposure every year as someone living at sea level, because Denver has 5000 feet less air between it and the cosmic rays. "Just enough to detect with a geiger counter" is a very small amount, since it will respond to the background radiation that's all around us.

Using trace radioisotopes is a common medical procedure for all sorts of tests, done millions of times a year to millions of people, why should anyone be shocked that it was done to one volunteer, one time, for a scientific purpose, and at even LOWER intensity (and it WAS lower, much lower, probably by a factor of hundreds or thousands, if it only barely was detected by a geiger counter, whereas in medical imaging it must be concentrated enough to not just spill out a single gamma ray here and there but actually make a visible image on a photographic plate). Frankly I find the implication of the title and description to be unforgivably ignorant. Almost as bad as those simpletons who think cellphones will give you cancer and think it's irresponsible to let a child use one. Frankly this commercial gives me a higher opinion of the people in the 1950s than today, because the viability of this advertisement means people weren't just frightened little ignorant sheep back then. Meanwhile, back in present day, I look at these comments and they're all just a bunch of mindless scientifically illiterate cavemen. Do you simpletons even understand that you are exposed to radiation constantly, that comes in through the atmosphere from cosmic rays, and up from the ground in natural radioactivity that is all around you? Do you have any idea how little radiation it is, if it is just barely enough to be detected with a geiger counter? You can walk around with a geiger counter and find radioactivity all over the place. The radioisotope doped dirt that she used to clean off with this cream was probably not even that one woman's biggest exposure to nuclear radiation that day! It probably amounted to one hour's worth of average natural exposure.

It was fun going from my nuclear stress test to my friend's and asking him to check me out with his Geiger counter. As he approached, he said it must not have been working right because he got a reading already quite a distance away, until he realized, no, that was for real, from the technetium-99m in me. But then, he also likes detecting the potassium-40 in a banana. Could there be some slight danger in this? Sure, but definitely worth it to find out how my coronary circulation's doing.

For instance, did you ask around in the 50s if people thought radioactive material glow green in the dark? My guess, the hitrate of "yes" would be far greater back then.

Years later the cast went down with cancer.

Missy Finley I'm quite serious. Everyone living on the planet gets an annual dose of something like 100 millirems of ionizing radiation. People in New Hampshire get more because there's lots of granite there and granite is radioactive. People living on the coast get more because seawater is radioactive. People living in Denver get twice as much because there are five thousand fewer feet of air between them and whatever's coming in from outer space. Airline pilots, especially ones on the polar routes, can get quite high doses during flight. In fact it's remarkable that airline pilots are the only industrial workers exposed to significant radiation who don't have to wear a film badge at work to record their exposure history -- and at the same time their routine exposure levels are far higher than people receive working in nuclear power plants, for example. Geiger counters are extremely sensitive. Every time you hear one click, it means a single alpha or beta particle, or gamma ray, passed through the thin membrane of the window at the end of the tube and slightly ionized some of the rarefied gas inside the tube, so that it conducted electricity for a moment.

This commercial would have low advertising value today because people are scared of radiation (with good reason), but even if that test really happened as described, the model wouldn't *necessarily* have been harmed. Even in the 1950s, radiation detectors were already sensitive enough to detect radiation several orders of magnitude lower than harmful levels. It's for no other reason that nuclear medicine examinations are performed - sometimes with radioisotopes that are *chemically* toxic regardless of their radioactivity (like thallium or technetium, for example), but the dose needed to detect their radiation is so low that it's not a concern.

Goytá F. Villela Jr. Knowing the way advertisements are filmed, it probably didn't happen just once. But, you're right, she *probably* didn't suffer any harmful effects, even over multiple takes for an advertisement, or line of advertisements. My point was simply that, over an extended time, "just radioactive enough to register on a Geiger counter" necessarily =!= harmless. On the whole, though, you're absolutely correct. But, believe me, I'd like to pretend that I don't think a corporation would deliberately subject an employee to harm, but the "radium girls" we mentioned earlier were told that the paint was safe...

We -loved- radioactivity in the 1950s. Kids could look at the bones in their feet using an x-ray-fluoroscope, found in almost every show store. The girls who worked painting luminous watch dials had fun using the paint for glow-in-the-dark makeup. Some of us lived.

Cosmetic companies have preyed upon women's vanity forever. Still, women will spend $350 for an oz of La Mer, even though the body of science, and dermatologists especially trained in aging skin, say a thin film of olive or coconut oil is just as effective. Even petrolatum performed as well as La Mer. Yet, I see a new eye cream or anti-aging cream every couple months or so. It helps if they have a French or Italian name. (L'Oreal, Princess Marcella Borghesa....)

This was on TV last week. Women painting watch dials with a radioactive paint so the dials would glow in the dark got poisoning. Their teeth started to fall out (they licked the brush tips for a sharper point) and then they died from systemic radioactive poisoning. There was a lawsuit and some got a lot of money, but what good was it to them when their bodies rotted away?

It wasn't the cold cream that was made radioactive, it was the models face -to show how well the cold cream worked. Only problem was they did not do a second scan with the geiger counter after she cleansed her face. I find it surprising how many commenting here mis-listened to the commercial. Makes me wonder how much else we think we listen to that we get wrong?
