I was moving nuclear fuel into the spent fuel pool with a guy with dentures. He sneezed, ejecting his dentures into his potentially contaminated gloves. He simply jammed them back into his mouth. He wasn’t happy when I had the technician frisk and swab his mouth. Luckily they found nothing but I’m still surprised they didn’t check for internal contamination.

Of course, this was before they changed it to sneezing into your elbow!
