What happens if you touch Weapons grade plutonium?

What would happen if you touch plutonium?
However, if you ingest plutonium, the alpha particles inside your body may causeyou cancer. But touching plutonium isn't dangerous (although if there is plutoniumdust on it you could inhale it and then it would be dangerous, but assuming there is no dust no danger is present).Apr 24, 2016

John Wayne and several actors in a cowboy movie died from radiated dust from a nuclear test 
down wind of where they were shooting a western. All you need is ONE particle of radiated dust 
from such a site to kill you within 20 years if it lodges in your lungs.
