Decades ago a known flawed reactor design was built, then it was neutron poisoned, then all the rods were pulled out and then the cooling was shut off and surprise, surprise, there was a steam explosion that was uncontained as their was no containment building - but such retarded act hasn't been repeated, but even an event that bad killed far less people than coal has and such uncontrolled ejection of radioactive material has never repeated.
