As the nation laid to rest former President Jimmy Carter, they remembered him for a slew of his accomplishments in office but one nuclear moment from before his presidency is sure to shock you… no pun intended.

Jimmy Carter, the late U.S. president who served only one term in office and was widely admired for his humanitarian work after leaving the White House, was remembered during his state funeral on Thursday as a man who put honesty and kindness above partisan politics.

Former President Jimmy Carter died Sunday at his home in Plains, Georgia, surrounded by family. The 100-year-old, known for his humble beginnings and unlikely road to the White House, was the longest-living American president.
