Well yes, in calories you are correct but in joules, one uranium atom releases 200x1.2601 joules. While a hydrogen atom releases 9059x 10^10. Divide the 2 and you get 2.827... So that means that hydrogen has 2 times the power of uranium. So that will mean that splitting about 21 atoms will destroy the earth! I did the math.

Ok I typoed my original estimate under the value I meant. I must have been seen to be making a contrary argument based on typo*. If you sat two times (and are being serious) and I tried to say five times? Fussion diets... aye frack! Way in the back of my mind I knew this was all wrong. Fission diets are better than fussion diets in this bizarro land. Some one call me out to that person who first noticed my mistake. Nom nom nom. So embarrased. Nom nom.
*but was not because argument was wonky too.

I only said hydrogen is about twice the power of uranium. Although I made a mistake. It is closer to three times the power. Because 1 calorie is 4.184 joules, our estimates aren't incorrect. Just a bit inaccurate.

I became so confused. I looked at meme once more. It agrees with poorly estimated values. World saved!
if you ate 1 gram of uranium u would gain 5,714,285.714285715 pounds or about 5,714,300 pounds if u round it to the hundreds place, which is the weight of about 13 adult blue whales!
Eating uranium would be very dangerous; if you consumed 25 milligrams of it, you'd immediately start to experience kidney damage, and anywhere past 50 milligrams could cause complete kidney failure and even death. So I wouldn't worry about the calories. You would die before even getting fat lmao
