You wouldn't need a radiation suit to pick up triuranium octooxide (ie yellowcake) in real life, a pair of thick gloves is sufficient. It's not fuel-grade uranium you're handling here, it's stuff that's almost entirely U-238 with a half-life of 4 billion years, and thus extremely low radioactivity.

Also don't watch Chernobyl, it's got a lot of alarmist nonsense in it.
