Japan's radiation is a serious problem. The country is still dealing with a nuclear disaster. So Osaka based swimwear company Yamamoto Corporation unveiled anti-radiation work wear in the form of a wetsuit to protect people.

It can stop nearly 100 percent of harmful beta rays. Beta particles can change the structure of molecules, leading to cancer and death. Will the clean-up crew for Fukushima be wearing this?

According to 47News, the wetsuit will be released in late November.

Yamamoto Corporation is also developing lead-based underwear to stop harmful gamma rays. It weighs 3.4 kilograms. The wetsuit is priced at 105,000 yen (US$1,072) and the underwear is 80,850 yen ($825).
