Ah yes, you are correct there, but that was the middle of an otherwise pair of solid hemispheres of plutonium. They are not thin-walled shells. They were pressed tightly together during manufacture.
 
The incident happened when someone was holding a neutron reflector hemisphere over the top of the core with just a screwdriver, instead of two wedges. They slipped and the neutron reflector fell over the core and it started going critical. Thankfully the guy got the reflector off before it went supercritical, but he’d already gained many, many times a lethal dose (his body did shield others in the room from a lethal dose).

Was it? I thought the early plutonium cores were hollow and a small beryllium-polonium neutron emitter was placed in the center during assembly.

IIRC it’s from a horror movie (about cannibals I think). It has been captioned in every way possible.
 
Unfortunately I can’t find a source for this, I only keep finding this image with different captions, but no fact checks.

Do make sure to warn for stuff like this. Also, to my knowledge, that image is wrongly linked to radiation when it’s actually a burn victim.

No clue. The demon core itself was two solid hemispheres of plutonium. They were sandwiched together with a ring to keep them just far enough apart to remain subcritical. The screwdriver was used to hold a neutron reflector from closing fully around the sphere. The video is a bit odd in that it only shows the neutron reflector, not the actual demon core.

Was just reading about the Tokaimura accident the other day, and going to hell because I laughed at the guy’s name.

Well not much left on that list after 10 years now, please carry on…
