Quoted By:
>The difficulty of preventing accidental detonation of an antimatter weapon may be contrasted with that of a nuclear weapon. Whereas nuclear weapons are 'fail-safe', antimatter weapons are inherently 'fail-dangerous': In an antimatter weapon, ANY failure of containment would immediately result in annihilation, which would damage or destroy the containment system and lead to the release of all of the antimatter material, causing the weapon to detonate entirely at full yield
So basically if your LARP was true, and you managed a breakthrough and produced a kilogram of antimatter but a single particle leaked, you'd instantly cause annihilation to occur and nuke yourself with 43 megatonnes of TNT

and if you managed to make a tonne of it, you could detonate 43 gigatonnes of TNT. wouldn't that destroy the planet instantly?
