  • The part 3 is missing, I only find part 1, 2, 4 and 5, but this videos are exellent, Thank you

  • great job this really helped me for school cause learn about somthing that not many people know about and this video helped me alot

  • I WATCHED THE 5 PARTS... AND I I JUST WANT TO SAY: CONGRATS !! WELL DONE.

  • @Geheimbert1 Thank you! appreciate it :)

  • Hmm.. your videos are showing the sad reality of this place today.

    This is something to reflect about and ask ourselves, is this our future?... the future of humanity?...

  • Amazing videos - one just wonders about Japan now. Thanks for uploading.

  • thanks for uploading this. i just watched all 5 parts begining to end. very nicely done. its a shame something like this ever happened.so many lives were affected.

  • @pfun41 Youre welcome.

  • @firesuite amazing too see how much nature has reclamed the land...very weedly area

  • Awesome footage- and a really good feeling for the soundtrack! Thnx for sharing!!

  • @Kobradelta1000 youre welcome :)

  • I would like to THANK YOU very much for showing on YouTube this richful job of yours, with plenty of things we dont see in ordinary documentaries. It is interesting to observ that despite the effects of time and wild environment, things should not be so destroyed as they are. This, I believe, is an evidence of hard vandalism throught times, which proves some humans have absolute no respect for structures and things. Its sad things arent close of how they were left at.

  • |...2 || I then enjoy the oportunity to ask you how is the visiting system. I mean, you were allowed to visit the places being followed by a guide. But before the visits were open(back in time), when the whole area was abandoned, vandalism took place, huh? Real sad. To see the things near of how they were left would cause an impression much more realistic. About the rest, I wonder what you felt there.

  • |...3|| I mean, to see with your own eyes the entire devastation humankind can cause to themselves and the planet. Ghost towns(I've seen one in USA, once) are something that make us think about the actions that could lead us to our own extinction. I've read around internet and books this whole area will remain contaminated for over 70 to 100 years still(if not more), which will make of Chernobyl a time capsule and a memory for future generations. Once again, THANK YOU very much for sharing! ;)

  • @DerAdventurer Thanks for your kind words :)

  • @firesuite ;)

  • Thank you so much for uploading this videos for all of us to see. Very eye opening and a very personal experience to share.

  • @avengersoul Thank you :)

  • Did you feel anything bad during or after this visit? I'm considering going there but I want to know the effects on your body.

  • @guliosh Was scanned after we left and nothing, no ill effects and ive been there twice now, 2008 and 2009.

  • at 2:42 is that asbestos on the well how dangerous is that. radioactive asbestos.

  • There´s a mous at 3:26 to 3:28 on the floor near by the woodbar on the floor ;-)

  • @lFABIANl2090 well spotted, didnt see it myself until back home editing few weeks later.

  • Jesus christ, that thing was up on 12... I'd think it would be lower nowadays but 12 is quite alot if you plan on just standing around there

    Was it measuring roentgens or something else?

  • @vassatiny went up to 13 micro sieverts, still relatively low but you don't hang around for long. if its in millli-sieverts 1msv = 1000 micro sv then you need to really worry.

  • @firesuite Yeah I can imagine staying there isn't good for your health no matter how little or much radiation :P

  • @vassatiny The half-life period is extremely long. It will be lower in a thousand years.

  • nowadays there are idiots planning to build more nuclear plants

  • Thank you for sharing this my friend.

    I would be intrested in visiting Chernobyl and Pripyat but it still seems dangerous, and quite a bit of a hassle..

    Were you able to visit Duga 3 too? I would love to see that aswell, should I ever go..

    Thank you for sharing this with the world

  • @thomm030 Thanks, appreciate it :) we couldnt get the zone administration to agree to Duga 3, its supposedly still guarded by a private security firm so its a lot tougher to get in there, although ive seen others on the net who have, We did get to see Yanov station and reactors 5 and 6 which we had to get permission to visit, theyre not part of the normal bus tour.

  • @firesuite whats duga 3?

  • @pfun41 just google "Russian Woodpecker" that will tell you everything about it ;)

  • one of the best documentaries of Chernobyl and Prypiat on youtube. Thanks so much - I cant wait to go there again in April

  • @turbochrissie Thank you :)

  • @turbochrissie

    did you drive to pripyat?

  • @ReneStahmann no our guide did, only zone staff can drive around in there

  • ur awsome mate, did u get tio see the labs? there was a factry where i live and when that got shut down they left everything including a lab, me and my friends broke in a few months after and everything was still there was a cool time in my life...

  • @VividGraffiti done similar things to that as a kid myself, im sure thats when i caught the bug for this sort of thing.

  • Beside the terrible architecture, the whole case of Chernobyl also is a good example of human naivity and irrationality. We build huge power plants based on technology and procedures which are critical to handle and rather dangerous. And for what price? Well, the answer lies in Prypiat and its environs.

    98% of electricity in Norway is comming from hydropower. Only Norway could replace 60 European nuclear power reactors by hydropower. But again, men are still foolish. There is only little hope.

  • @AirSimming You now why the reactor blew up?

  • To be honest: Prypiat of course does not look beautiful these days but it also never did before. It's a characteristical Eastern bloc city with an architecture of terrible concrete block construction, built overnight only for a nuclear power reactor. You could find such terrible architecture also in Berlin when eastern Germany, i.e. the German Democratic Republic was under Russian leadership until 1990. I always wonder why people like to live at such disgusting concrete block places.

  • @AirSimming I think that you're from USA. In Poland, you must wait up to 7 years to get a flat in such an ugly cocrete block, when everyone wanted them back in PRL. Hard times. If you don't like it you could live in even worse conditions. Not much choice. My grandfather have had 150 square meter suburban home built in 1960s and a blue Volga GAZ M24, a luxurious one back then, but he was mid-ranking communist PZPR party member, a "somebody". If there was a line in the shop, he would be first.

  • such a quiet place.

    I'd like to visit it sometime.

    thanks for filming and uploading these videos.

  • I have that dosimeter just to let you know, if you set the threshold to 0.00 then it alarm at 1000 micro. However the dosimeter wont shut of periodically with that threshold.

  • why are there tanks in chernobyl are somebody coud still them

  • @dikkefuck123456789 All of the metal things (Tanks, Choppers, Trucks) have absorbed a lot of radiation and are highly dangerous to be around. No one would want to be near those tanks let alone inside one or use the metal for anything.

  • Comment removed

  • @dikkefuck123456789: some people have stolen parts of the vehicles - but i am pretty sure anyone who did that was only able to do it it once... (-;

    Because how much radiation you recieve depends on how long you are exposed to it. If you just go there to look around and then leave - it's not so bad, but if you where to steal something and take it with you, you would be taking the radiation with you and if you are exposed to it long enough...

  • Is radiation still high to be rebuild and occupied?

  • 3:46 - russian woodpecker

  • This is great, thanks for the Chernobyl actual "city" footage. Never seen any of it.

  • Comment removed

  • I think this is sad/interesting.. what can happen to a city the size of Prypiat when no one is around to take care of it.

    So is the water in the area still have very high radiation?

  • Very good videos. All parts.

  • Otherworldly to see everything just left, just stopped in time - like everyone simply vanished.

    Very good filming and editing, very good music. You should consider a career in films, hollywood needs some creative blood - this was more interesting to watch than most films out now. Thank you.

  • Awesome videos shame it was looted and not left as a proper memorial to those who died and will die young saving us from something even worse.

  • Thank you for have post that video, how feel the staff now ?

  • brilliant vid mate 10/10

  • is that a rodent at 3:27?

  • I will never forget this nuclear accident. horrible...

  • Thanks for sharing your video, i really like it and have wondered about Chernobyl for years.

  • i saw a mouse !!! bleh !!! on the floor at 3:23

  • @harvesmoon oo yes, really at 3:25 :-D

  • show me if someone "find" any skull...

  • Question...What about the city or town of Chernobyl, other than prypiat ? Is there any footage of that ? Maybe I missed it..greetings.

  • Yes from 4:00 up until about 6:50 is all in or around the City of Chernobyl.

  • Wow !! Great video !! Never forget this disaster for many many years... But what is the risk for your health about this travel ??

  • This is the best shot footage of the Chernobyl zone so far, great job !! I absolutely want to go there sometime. Its exiting and chilling at the same time...thanks for posting.

  • why is the ships (boats) destroyd, what happened with them ? send message back if you know .

  • Many boats were used to bring in the massive amounts of sand used to drop on the reactor. They would have been too radioactive to be taken away to be used again. Like the many trucks, fire engines, bulldozers, the boats simply couldn't ever be saved.

  • Absolutely a great video series!!! There's something magical about Prypiat, and these videos capture that well. Please post any additional footage from your trips.

  • Great Job on the video. Some day i want to go there

  • is that 13 rontgen an hour that meter was reading in the red forest?

  • Truly some of the best stuff on YouTube. Thank you very much - I hope to visit some day.

  • Thanks a lot for this :D...I watched all the vids and they are really nice although they make you a bit sad....

  • in the beg when the thing is beeping how many rads is that ? When it reached its highest ?

  • Thank you

  • gracias que buena serie

  • Thank you!

  • Did you spot the rodent scurrying along the wall at 3:25? :D

    Brillant footage about Prypiat and the surrounding area, BTW. Incredibly nicely documented.

  • @darkhoodness yea i see him but only after i got back home and was editing the video, nice little surprise..

  • give me that panzer !!!!

  • Was that village evacuated as well? i noticed you wrote "mostly"

  • @paullypaully18 It was fully evacuated back in 86 however a month or two later a lot of the residents crept back into the zone and back to their old homes, they are know as samosely.

  • awesome vids. ty much.

  • good job great vids

  • Wonderful documentation.

    What are the risks from radiation around the area?

  • @FelixTheHouseFreak

    Minimal, if you get a chance check out my website, it goes into a lot more detail on there, link in 'more info'

  • thanks for the vids very good work

  • well thx for sharing this with us :) this was really awesome to watch .. and think abaut the history of the place. this is so sad that noone was warned in time abaut what really happend. i live in hungary and hungary was only warned from these thinks abat 2-3 weaks later :( (hungary is next to Ukraine)

  • i bet there isnt a single living creature in any body of water there. or maybe a few fish with 5 heads..

  • there are fishes, and yes, some of them are mutated and can be like extremely long..

  • actually, lots of fish are in the river pripyat, and there is a larger concentration of russian wild boar and red deer in chernobyl/pripyat then there are in the surronding areas

  • absolutely stunning video! REALLY does make me want to visit the area someday

  • AMAZING!!:') oh my... GREAT VIDEO THANKS TO SHARING US!!!

    I LOVE PRIPYAT!! the history....people amazing reality!I want one trip in this place :(

    Kisses from Portugal

  • amazing video footage. This is truely a modern day ghost city and quite a tragety at the same time...lets pray we've learned from our mistakes and never let this happen again.

  • we wont. we never do

  • Best Video Footage in Highest Quality on Youtube and complete Internet!

    Thanks so much for sharing this to the World!!!

  • Thanks :)

  • @tonstrom303 Thank you, appreciate the words :)

  • a mouse 3.26

  • Well spotted :) didnt notice it myself until I was home editing.

  • You mention "almost abandonned".. are there actually people living there??

  • Yes some people crept back into the zone and back to their homes a few months after the accident. Before the explosion there were 4000 people in the village of illintsi, now there are only a handful.

  • interesting :)

  • the village in the first part seems very similar to the discovery channel vid on the animals returning to the area.

  • Hi m8 that's 1 touching piece of footage..It bring back some worrying memories for sure..Luckily the wind blew N/E before it got to England....Not saying i didn't feel for the rest of Europe...1 thing I will add is that it should be a reminder for all man kind,,,,that if wee get things wrong it can cost us dearly........On the up side,, I could hear animals(BIRDS)..coming back into the area...So are great planet has her way of fixing thing.....( Mother Nature )Good Job An all....

  • @Kingflicker tell me about it, i was in poland and that shit passed right through krakow, some scary shit i tell you, one experience ill never forget.
