These “Ukrainians” at 5:25 getting their iodine “pills” are speaking a perfect Polish. The kids are getting their iodine SYRUP. Everything else is doubtful, too. There is not enough facts. It seems they had just a few pictures of Chernobyl and news information. The rest is propaganda. All the “people of Chernobyl” are probably taken from documentary Slavonic movies of that period so they have “Russian” faces and cloths. In general what they did is a good example of … a Soviet-like blunder ;-)
this video sounds more like unti soviet russia ...from the begining to the end ,soviet russia ,soviet union ,soviet union did this and soviet russia did that...
@vic320 I agree. Instead of objective description of accident, it is full of bullshit about how Soviet Union and russian (ukarinian etc.) people were "bad"... Isn't this document made by american documentarists? :-) I don't believe everything I can see on TV, mostly it lies and mystificates people... I read various books about Chernobyl accident instead - they are more close to truth, though nobody knows, how exactly the accident happend.
RBMK...a flawed design with no containment. This may not have happened if those stupid operators KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING. You don't ignore a ptoblem in a nuclear reactor.
ScandalB52 you need to brush up on some world history, or our highschools need to teach better. Either way ukraine was apart of the USSR. Considering this was only 25 years ago how can people be so ignorant.
a politically colored documentary. and this said by a western european citizen. the US just narrowly escaped the same fate at three miles island. they just got a lucky break with the hydrogen bubble.
Thats not a fair statement. the common Russian individual was more intellectual then some give credit. If anything, it was the Russian government that was stupid, isolating the people from the outside because of jealousy forming between Russia itself and the Americas. So yes, some Russians were stupid (government wise) but public wise, they had no idea. In the end, the statement "stupid Russians" applies credit to where it is due but no where else.
@carlisleboi27 the gov. was not in that place people were and the job they did speaks for itself i would not defend these people it was stupid and not smart and really stupid and criminal
It was not the russians, but the communist system. Also please notive that the liqudators were the soviet heroes, to whom we may thank that we can live safely now.
this is an incredibly sad story, and to think that that if the USSR had evacuated people sooner, there wouldn't have been as many fatalities as there were
this is why we listen and learn, to realize the actual facts of certain situations. And the glad i am not there. why? it could happen here too oh well
Very vague and innacurate

They didn't explain why the insertion of the rods prompted an increase in power. The rods were tipped with graphite, which caused the power surge.
