Many of the Nuclear reactors in the US are very old. Many are well beyond the lifespan that they were designed for.
Older reactors get brittle from the nuclear radiation the steel is exposed to for that time. The nuclear reactor in Palisades Michigan is the most brittle reactor in the world. A brittle reactor can fail in a very terrible way.
Here is a video from Fairwinds that shows what can happen when a reactor is brittle.
Gunderson used to be a proponent of nuclear energy. But when 3 miles Island had it's disaster and he seen the lies that were told to the public he became a nuclear energy watchdog instead.
