god bless your liquidators of Chernobyl and fukishima god rest your sole, these are the real heroes who deserve honour and tears not vagina’s like rat face Justin beiber
So fucking wierd how you can just be walking around one day feeling fine, and something invisible that's penetrating your body and fucking up your DNA kills you in a slow horrible death.
me and some firends we will be like them....THEY SACRIFICE FOR ALL OF US CHILDREN ADULTS ALL OF US....AND NOW MORE DONT RESPECT THEM......il sacrifice mylsef again to save us....respect them....
i will be one of them.....THEY SACRIFICE FOR ALL OF US AND MORE THEY DONT RESPECT THEM.....THEY SAVE US FROM DEATH....il sacrifice myself if its needed....
I believe they are heroes the govt is to blame for keeping it hidden but without the liquidators all of Europe would be radioactive. I have so much respect for these people.
i respect them, but not heroes because of their ignorance to the danger, dont praise them to much for stupidity knowing risks at the time, and anyone can be a hero this tragedy is horrible hopefully man learns from mistakes and moves forward.
@clintff29 they may not of know but they risk there lives and saved much of Europe so they are heroes would you like to have been there doing that not being told the risks buy the goverment it was kept from them and no one really new the tru extent of the disaster the goverment hid it and most were told they had to do it commies
I use footage like this to motivate me in my factory job. I work in a paint plant. I'll be running around all day and feel like shit and think of liquidators grinding at it in the radiation and think to myself "It's time to man the fuck up!"
AHHH, the Liquidators - most of them haven´t got a "hero" factor. Most of them did not even know in what they are going to.They wanted money, and soviet union gave a lot of them for people which went to clean up the mess.
@fallfromgrave Then I dont fucking know why they were wearing a lot of equipment against radiation and they got a medal for each one... OR MAYBE they were weeks cleaning withouth feeling like they were dying and KEEPING cleaning without reason and nobody was escaping for that... nobody tried to go out of the place... I dont know men... you think the money can buy a life... the liquidators were heros... and you are wrong.

@xxfallout1 They are moving the strongly radioactive debris and graphite into the reactor. They could only be 40 seconds on the roof until they had to leave beacause of the high radiation.
@MaksimovLugansk What would you do? Working for hours and hours - not allowed to sit down, because everythin is irradiated? What would you do, not able to leave the area, because the cars drove away, because fearing radiation away after letting more liquidators out . What would you do, when the specialists increased the scale on the radiation mesurement tools, and saying: Now it's o.k. I'ev got this information from a ukrainian liquidator. His book is called "Special Battalion 731".
@Tekknorg I can not literally understand what you mean, I'm using online translator. I live in Ukraine, not far from this place. At the station, never throwing the workers, each working no more than three hours on the object and then they were sent home and never bring up the station ... Not like in Japan now 50 people are more than a month at the station ... they are 100% received a lethal dose of radiation. ((
FOr Mislia: Я не знаю, откуда у тебя такая информация, практически все ликвидаторы имели представление, куда и для чего они едут и в каких условиях им придется работать... Все эти разговоры, по поводу, того, что мол мы не знали куда мы едим - это сказки. ТОгда существовало такое понятие как долг и честь. А то, что ты там изучил пообщавшись с Литовцами, так это еще ничего не значит, они никогда не любили СССР, и объективной информации предоставить не могут!
these guys became heroes without any wish of it. I made monitoring of newspapers' that were released in Lithuania (former part of Soviet Union) after the catastrophe in three months regarding messages about Chernobyl. No one of volunteers (other part of Liquidators were sent by army) wasn't informed about danger and risk tht is waiting for them in area of Chernobyl, they went there as for kinda "ordinary job" and payed with their lives and health. Damn nuclear power and damn government.
Basically they have risked their lifes in order to save many others. Obviously many of them were forced to do that, but nonetheless many voluntarily joined liquidators.
Years passed by and many of them have died, others suffer from various illnesses.
My father was picked to be liquidator as well, but because he and my mom married he kind of evaded it.
Wait, "not forget" is just bad grammar. "Not Forgive"? what, the don't forgive the morons that ran and built the plant that lied about its main safety features not being installed so they'd look good to the Russian government? Yeah, maybe 'Not Forgive' them, but then again, they died really quickly after this incident, considering they were on site during the catastrophe...
@TheUSA1945 STFU pussy, just cuz you were bullied and beaten up every day of your child hood does not mean that all people who swear are poorly raised. JAG OFF
At 3:08 those liquidators that turn up on the bus with a look of despair to personify "Lambs to the Slaughter". Those Poor Buggers had to give away so much but By Gee they were brave.
Im surprised everyone just blames nuclear power and dont mention the soviet union as it was very poor management at the plant which caused this disaster.
@purplehazenilsp it's not that much foult of nuclear power even though it had it flaws, neither foult of government. it was foult of stupid experiement which should never been made and chief for doing that was Anatoli Dyatlov. Managment wasn't the best but people go evacuated. Most people who died there were ones who tryed to fix problems. There was no way to avoid losses and there was little time to fix things before they went out of hand.
@deviantan021 Because you obviously don't know anything about why the disaster happened back then. The accident occurred during an experiment scheduled to test a potential safety emergency core cooling feature, which took place during the normal shutdown procedure. The experiment wasn't necessary at all. The other blocks even ran until year 2000 without any problems and where shut down then.
Yet here we are today, having learned nothing, facing another nuclear diaster where people risk their lives in a battle to save the rest of us. They can say or not say, what ever they want about what is going on in Japan, but we are not so stupid not to know the risks and and dangers. There is good reason that cases of cancer have risen since the nuclear age. These brave men and women DID know the dangers. watch?v=ccnMJCVaaVY
men who went in there they did not know which is the case! they were not told about radiation, and they were wearing normal suits. Hundreds of men came back to Estonia, and then they were dropped out of the head, hair, teeth, and it was no longer in the mouth. who are still alive today are told that it actually happened!
I am born American and don't see too much to admire with our political system. Please don't confuse Americans with our politicians and what hollywood portrays.
I would like to think that we would have the courage to do what the liquidators do here, but sadly, I'm not sure we would. We first would have to hear from thousands of self interest groups and legislate. By the time our system did something, the 100,000 year radioactive period might have ended.
Respect to these brave men but it does annoy me that this incident is used as a reason to avoid nuclear power. Far more lives are lost every year (possibly every week) in the course of generating coal power than have ever been lost in the entire history of nuclear power. Considering how much safer modern reactors are than these 50+ year old reactors I don't personally have any problem with new reactors being built... I'd happily live next to 1 if they weren't so ugly.
These men were and are heroes and americans are stupid. The reason: american soldiers were looking at the beautiful nuclear bombs in the deserts of nevada. How stupid is that!!!
compatriots do not know how to read. Moderate level of English grammar among 24% of americans is lower then mine. And if you think you can tell something like you said about Russia or former USSR countries,then i owe you a congratulation on april first-fools day as your professional.
@SuperFoOnT Sadly you are mostly right my friend... I feel somewhat shamefull when I see what has become of america. But there is still hope as not everybody are selfish ignorant fat slobs, and see through the lies of their TV and have a lot of admiration for your people.
Only problem is population of your type - noncontributing superselfconfident bastards,who can insult other countries patriotic feelings without any reason or fact. You are very easy to be brainwashed.When i was in DC i got aquainted with couple dudes of your type.They were proving me that World War 2 tnden only because brave american soldiers killed Hitler and then you "smacked these fucking jap's all over the island with nuckes".I laughed very much it appeared than high level of your compa
And do not try to blame me in USA hatred.Your country has a lot of good,decent, tolerant and highly educated people,who are welcomed everywhere.I have some mates at list at 5 big cities on Eastern coast of Atlantic.And they realize that Russia and all countries of former USSR are people too and most of them are not brown bears carrying "ushanka" and drinking vodka.And i respect them for their wideness of thoughts.
I think that it as only a matter of time for such misunderstanding like modern USA would stop existing.You consider your soldiers a heroes?Why is that?maybe because they defend interests of big oil companies?Or killing barely defenseless arab soldiers and peaceful civilians?Who are not from Al Quaida,you hate so much.everyone all over the world when hearing the word "American" imagine fat arrogant and ignorant bastard with a fake smile on his face.

Do you Know that the half of your country already belongs to chinese,who are wery glad to support your wars?
Have you ever noticed that your nation has no native language?Instead of it you are speaking native language of country you were struggle against?do you know that every war,you provide for,at least,15 years is war on the other countries territory?Have you ever thought about why America is pulled out of the deep shit by one genius,while all the country eating and having coitus?For example Alfred Marshal,JFK...
Do you know that compared with your young generation ours are professors and geniuses?Because simply our 6-7 year old boy allready knows multiplication table,instead of knowing new song of Snoop Dog or Beyonce.Do you know,that history of America,compared to history of normal countries is nothing?Do you know that your country is a bunch of fat retard,thinking only about food and coitus?
i live in Kiev and i'm not completely agree.Collapse of the Soviet Union is the fault of unfortunate complex of reasons. I agree that Chernobyl is the one of the biggest.
But Soviet Union had enough power to handle at least two more accidents like this.it collapsed because of Gorbachev with his "glasnost" and his "innovative" american styled ways of managing this giant and remarkable country.
There are so many idiots in america to this day who think that ronald reagan brought down the Berlin wall and the Soviet Union. NO it was this disaster ! In my opinion. Do any Ukranians or Russians or anyone anywhere near Chernobyl disagree?
As a layman, I don't think these guys didn't know what they were doing and what was the potential risk. Just thinking of wearing a mask with high potection stuff on your body and with people measuring something around you. They were the one we called HEROS.....
Radiation will hit the west coast turning people into zombies that will march towards the East eating everyone they can! Zombie Apocalypse starts now! Load up on ammo
"its quite sad that the liquidators had no choice but to do the clean up work because of the communist regime and the fear of being killed"
what the fuck do you know about the "communist regime" of those days? did u grow up there, or were you conscripted to go to Chernobyl? if any of these men didn't know what and why they were doing it, you wouldn't see them working like that in this video. you'd expect them to be fighting the regime. think of it you moron!
@nazirdjon telling from your name you're clearly quite the gay nazi boy. Anyways, how the fuck can you fight back against communism you dumbass. They would have been shot and killed on the spot you jew mother fucker. They worked that hard becasue they were in the fucking military dumbass, something you gay faggety american neonazis dont know shit about. Do you really think they were given the fucking option to go work up there? Yur one stupid fucker. No go fuck yur mom you manure eating hilbilly
@susupoosa may i just say that in the comment i am replying on, you are cussing yourself out,, and not the person who you were refering to. Oh btw: good point in your first original comment, your right, they didnt have a choice, too bad some people dont understand that.
to @bietis2, there were no soldiers who gave their lives. russians didn't send their people. they sent us. lithuanians, baltarusians, latvians, estonians. i am from lithuania. my people were sent there to work not knowing what are they dealing with. some of them burned insied after few minutes, others came back with deformed organs. none of them survived. they all died. it's a pink storry which are told to the world from russia. and we are not enemy with russian people.but russian politics were.
@kokobedima You have to understand ; allot of these people didnt know the true risks of radiation as they where simple firemen, farmers, army grunts and whatnot, also the goverment was verry hush-hush about it so no one knew exactley HOW radioactive the area was.
i'm not sure anyone's skin melted there....but the fragile capilaries and mucous membranes certainly showed the damage very shortly ater irradiation...in fact, the time it took to get those guys to Pripjat was enough (well below 1 hr) to tell the doctors there that they weren't recieving patients...rather people who'd die within a few days regardless of treatment
A fatal dose of radiation doesn't make your skin melt right way. Many fatally-dosed people seem in good health for perhaps hours afterward. Later on very bad things happen. It's quite possible people thought they were fine as they left the site, only to die days or weeks later.
The cameraman died a couple weeks later. He had no idea of the danger he was in. I suspect that was the same situation for many of the early "liquidators" on scene.
after 30 minutes of showeling, the soldiers (expandable soviet workforce) would fall from total exhaustion, bleading from practically every imaginable location on their body...after seeing that picture, another would put on the fallen's protective led vest and go to certain death....being born 80 miles from that place 2.5 years after the disaster, now, watching these videos, really makes me think just how much of my existance i owe to these heroes....rip
@eretromicin I believe they started 1 hour shifts. When the soldiers started dying, they reduced it to 30 minutes shifts. Engineers and scientists in the military were sent straight into ground zero to help with the cleanup. Those in command knew that at the very least the radiation would make these men sterile. Soldiers without children were exempt. Engineers who already had children did not have a choice. Somewhat ironic, and very sad.
@twidgetfitch what you believe is what you've heard...what i stated was what my dad's colegues, he worked as a doctor in zhitomir at tbat time, had to deal with... most of the chunks those soldiers were cleaning up, ommited radiation of over 5000 r/hr..lethal dose 500r/hr..there has been a lot of effort put into showing that the "authorities" cared..when in reality, they refuse to even tell just how many people died of those liquidators...those facts you stated are not real
@eretromicin I beg to differ. My uncle was called in as a liquidator. He traveled the distance from Leningrad. He arrived on the outskirts of Chernobyl, knowing well that he was facing almost certain death. He was a biochemical engineer. Upon arrival, they asked those who have had children to step forward and sent the rest of the group home. This could have been simply the decision of the group's commander and not a widespread thing. But this is what happened and my uncle's life was spared.
I saw a greenpeace video that said the were 1,000,000 liquidators. The man on it said out his group of 32 only 4 were still alive. Very sad, very brave men, even if they didn't know it.
the whole reason this tragedy was to begin with- GOVERNMENT.
the people who ordered to build this power plant in a hurry for their own selfish imperialistic wishes, caused the genral engineer who designed the Chernobyl reactor, to make a mistake in the design. this whole plant was a time bomb on earth.
and thts exactly what happened in japan right now. capitalistic powerful man in japan wanted their factories and industry to sky high in a short time,
It's unbelievable how brave or how ignorant these poor heroes were, taking thousands or Roentgens of radiation each second.
The russians first tried to send drones to do the job, but their circuits couldn't stand the exposure and all of them failed.
The guy a 1:44 is showing the symptoms of overexposure: headaches, fatigue and probably reported the typical skin burns and the particular taste in mouth of ionized saliva, sure signs that they were living their last hours.
Looks like some brave Japanese are going through the same thing right now at Fukushima. Yet another explosion and another fire put out. Damn hope it doesn't get any worse there...
Such a shame. The majority of the liquidators you see on the roof throwing over highly contaminated graphite, among other things, died shortly after. Within days, usually less than a week, and during that time...they died a painful slow death in hospitals in a plastic confinement. These people couldn't even hug their wifes and children before perishing. Some had a slight idea as to what they were signing up for, but most did not. None of them knew they would be dying within hours. God bless them
Those men are the physical definition of Selflessness and Sacrifice.

@purplehazenilsp it's not that much foult of nuclear power even though it had it flaws, neither foult of government. it was foult of stupid experiement which should never been made and chief for doing that was Anatoli Dyatlov. Managment wasn't the best but people go evacuated. Most people who died there were ones who tryed to fix problems. There was no way to avoid losses and there was little time to fix things before they went out of hand.

@deviantan021 Because you obviously don't know anything about why the disaster happened back then. The accident occurred during an experiment scheduled to test a potential safety emergency core cooling feature, which took place during the normal shutdown procedure. The experiment wasn't necessary at all. The other blocks even ran until year 2000 without any problems and where shut down then.

I am born American and don't see too much to admire with our political system. Please don't confuse Americans with our politicians and what hollywood portrays.
I would like to think that we would have the courage to do what the liquidators do here, but sadly, I'm not sure we would. We first would have to hear from thousands of self interest groups and legislate. By the time our system did something, the 100,000 year radioactive period might have ended.

Respect to these brave men but it does annoy me that this incident is used as a reason to avoid nuclear power. Far more lives are lost every year (possibly every week) in the course of generating coal power than have ever been lost in the entire history of nuclear power. Considering how much safer modern reactors are than these 50+ year old reactors I don't personally have any problem with new reactors being built... I'd happily live next to 1 if they weren't so ugly.

i live in Kiev and i'm not completely agree.Collapse of the Soviet Union is the fault of unfortunate complex of reasons. I agree that Chernobyl is the one of the biggest.
But Soviet Union had enough power to handle at least two more accidents like this.it collapsed because of Gorbachev with his "glasnost" and his "innovative" american styled ways of managing this giant and remarkable country.

eretromicin 10 months ago
A fatal dose of radiation doesn't make your skin melt right way. Many fatally-dosed people seem in good health for perhaps hours afterward. Later on very bad things happen. It's quite possible people thought they were fine as they left the site, only to die days or weeks later.

eretromicin 10 months ago
@eretromicin I believe they started 1 hour shifts. When the soldiers started dying, they reduced it to 30 minutes shifts. Engineers and scientists in the military were sent straight into ground zero to help with the cleanup. Those in command knew that at the very least the radiation would make these men sterile. Soldiers without children were exempt. Engineers who already had children did not have a choice. Somewhat ironic, and very sad.

eretromicin 10 months ago
@eretromicin I beg to differ. My uncle was called in as a liquidator. He traveled the distance from Leningrad. He arrived on the outskirts of Chernobyl, knowing well that he was facing almost certain death. He was a biochemical engineer. Upon arrival, they asked those who have had children to step forward and sent the rest of the group home. This could have been simply the decision of the group's commander and not a widespread thing. But this is what happened and my uncle's life was spared.
