Finally a sure, fast way to destroy this planet? ;)

I barely remember that nuclear fusion could not be stopped easily, 
unlike conventional nuclear fission reactors.

Is a nuclear fusion reactor safe?

Unlike a fission reaction, loss of control mechanisms in a fusion 
reactor (heat and pressure) will not result in a runaway nuclear chain 
reaction.  Fusion reactions cannot sustain themselves without that 
incredible amount of heat and pressure but fission reactions will 
continue to occur long after you lose control or power in a fission reactor.

How do you stop the Sun's nuclear fusion from burning?

I don't know how powerful and safe the magnetic field used in containing 
the fusion core. All we need is a electricity failure? By hackers? :)

BTW. why not we do an experiment to prove that? Let a fusion reactor 
fail and we will know the results!! It's very scientific! :)
