But this is true! Everything except lead is radioactive in some capacity. Pretty sure us humans cannot live on lead alone.

Incidentally, astute readers that have picked up on the fact that Pb has Z=82 which is larger than 66 should pat themselves on the back and note that the 4 isotopes all have a yet-to-be-observed decay to mercury, with half life of >1.4×10^20 years for 204 and experimental lower bounds of >10^21 for the other 3. Theoretically, 208 takes >10^124, which means 207 is "more" stable.
