Recorded with a Soviet potato.

WHY WOULD YOU PUT THE GEIGER COUNTER ON THE FREAKIN GROUND IF THE GROUND IS IRRADIATED!!! U STUPID OR SUMTHING!? hey good luck getting a radioactive hand, in two more weeks this guy is gonna have the firs case of hand cancer

[NickyAmerica]

@outatime1955

I wonder what Nuclear Power Plants are for?

Powering cities, You Derp.

[villainy07]

can't c the reading...2 bad

[lmaIia]

How did you get into the Zone, uploader?

[trickylev96]

@lmaIia

You can visit Chernobyl.

Its no problem.

[swoeen]

@outatime1955 Who ever said it was next to the reactor?

[Kongregater3]

"Hazardous radiation level, Protection required to pass!"

[Renpolo]

@outatime1955 Because you'll have fun there on an atomic scale ;D

[GmodRandomCollection]

@Renpolo Why don't ypu have the top rated comment??

[TheWW1doughboy]

Search it on google soviet army stuff is the link.

[TheWW1doughboy]

I am getting a Soviet ДП-5А geiger counter. For those who don't speak Russian DP-5A. Some ones used in the clean up of chernobyl and only for 70$! Here is link if you want one. =)

[sticksofury]

@TheWW1doughboy 70 BUCKS? Think again bud, here in the future there's a run on them on Ebay and prices are soaring driven by all those Californians and Oregonians dying from the fall out from Fukushima! 11/17/2012

[NickyAmerica]

@sticksofury

The fallout in California is so slight that I think the local Nuclear Reactors put out more radioactivity in the immediate area then the plant.

[barson66]

it takes just oer 400 rads to kill some one the meater barely read 1.5 rads not even a fraction of wha is needed so its veary safe to travell there now for a short period of time

[KarbineKyle]

Anything above 30uSv/h is high, esp. the longer you stay, and it's got to be reading 0.001mSv/sec, at least! All the radioactive isotope particles, Uranium, Thorium, Cesium, Barium, Strontium, Krypton, Radium, Polonium, Technetium, Radon, Lead, etc... All radioisotopes! All those particles are dangerous, Esp. if inhaled, even though it's mostly Alpha and Beta, which isn't as strong as your Neutron, Gamma or X-ray radiation. You don't want to breathe in the air around there! Nice Video! 5/5

[MASTURCHEEF001]

@KarbineKyle its not really that bad anymore, so you can breathe easy, UNLESS A WIND PICKS UP. there, wind means HOLY SHIT ITS WINDY GET THE FUCK OUT!! OH NO RADIOACTIVE DIRT!!!!!! SHIT!!!!!

[MMOGalaxy]

@MASTURCHEEF001

Rofl at that only after I read your comment and watched the video again I could hear the faint sound of wind blowing in the background XD

[MASTURCHEEF001]

@MMOGalaxy wow rly?lol

[FreakZeit]

poor geiger counter, now its self-contaminated

[jjovereats]

@FreakZeit NO U

[FiR3S4Rt3R]

and what is on the display of the counter? sorry i really cant see it

[mcBdawg]

CoD4 Anyone?

[SteveDirtyGhettoKid]

heheh u-oh

[meshkis666]

so sad..

[uranium238decay]

what kind of geiger counter is that

[barrackisastupidnig]

What would be a dangerous level and what would be normal?

[ketchup003]

i heard that around 40 it is normal. and everything above 80 is dagerous.

[barrackisastupidnig]

So 1.200 is dangerous going off the Priypat geiger counter. When I was in Priypat that is what it read. The moss on the ground was pretty contaminated

[tibor29]

lol i would run away

[PhatFarm60]

From Kiev, there are tours of Pripyat,Chernobyl, and the power plant itself. (not the interior obviously)

They are all day trips and are completely safe.

The reading you saw was in microroentgens, which meant that the dose you would be getting there is just shy of 2 m(milli)R/h: many times higher than normal background radiation, but nowhere near a dangerous level. (Although I can't say I'd suggest living there.)

[erich84502]

Write your will before going?

[RawSteelUT]

That's in microroentgens, right? Hooooly crap...

[eduardotufen]

You live near Chernobyl?
