Chernobyl- Radiophobia

[aleks070777]

He's said about 600-700 Roentgen (or 6-7 Sv) In Fucushima plant radiation level higher - till 10 Sv like the level inside Chernobyl Sarcophagus now

[miragef19]

where the hell did al the buttons meters etc go ?

[OXLordiOX]

It's amazing building

[dikkefuck123456789]

want to die ? do that

[MrIhatehomework76]

That place is heratbreaking, close your eyes and u would see in a line Dyatlov, Akimov, Toptunov, Perevovchenko, etc awaiting death, for ones it will come in matter of days and weeks, but others would have to agonize years....R.I.P. Chernobyl, an once beautiful plant I would never forget the golden years (1970-1986)

P.D.: I used to have an old newspaper dated april 27 1986 depicting the gaping hole.

[MegaUtubeking]

if u liked this watch battle for chermpbyl on how they stoped the fire and built the container over the reactor

[J0hannski]

A day in life for Homer Simpson.

[teo829]

Touching radioactive fuel like that.......*facepalm facepalm* FACE FUCKING PALM***

[ConoTube]

wow, the impressive Skala computer! I wonder if the АЗ-5 button still exists.

[NEEDCARS]

@ConoTube you mean AZ-5

[ConoTube]

@NEEDCARS Yes, i just wrote it as it really called "аз-5". З is "Z"!

Heat salt up to 500celsius with a big lens,pump it through a heat transfer device,heat the water to1200 deg far.Spin turbine=spin generator=clean,safe,and abundant solution!!

[supadeedoopavids]

but then no more salf for a our fish and chips XD

[angelicsnoww]

the control room

[ingodidoubt]

for me, the risks nuclear waste are just as deadly as a power plant. we are lulled into thinking that managing nuclear waste will be easy. i believe it will leave a legacy of devastation. the risks are just too high.

[lordofthelefthand777]

The plan is to construct a dome over the entire reactor. Let the people of the future deal with that shit is what they are thinking.

[swiftdragoness88]

Wtf the with the noise! sorry people to the 'WTF' okay is it me or is anyone else scared of this vid?

[arbitar222]

im subing cause i like this vid for the info it gives me

[abeldodd]

Notice on the fuel rod display in the control room that 90% of the fuel rods where engaged. And the pannels that control them ripped out? notice that afgahnistan is only 200klm from pripyat. middle of the cold war. it wasnt the russians, their soil. Mabey the taliban knows who did it. Why does america want the taliban wiped of the planet???

[OK2BCK]

sad, sad place!

[cowtippingrocks]

Looks like that control panel has been harvested. Scary thought that people went in there to get parts off of it.

[bennyboots]

Why someone would want pull those panels out of there is beyond me...

[cowtippingrocks]

They didnt shut the other reactors down untill later. The last one came off line in 2000. They probably used it for spare parts. Its scary that they didnt care about the safety of the employees harvesting parts.

[soylentgreenb]

"They didnt shut the other reactors down untill later. The last one came off line in 2000."

The employes of the still functioning reactors protested actually protested against their closure.

"They probably used it for spare parts. Its scary that they didnt care about the safety of the employees harvesting parts."

I think it's more likely that they wanted to determine if the instrumentation was functioning correctly at the night of the accident in reactor 4.

[cowtippingrocks]

Its amazing that they kept other reactors running for years after the accadent. If nuclear operators over there make the same kind of money as they do here in canada, (and the states too I imagine) the lure of the good money for them must outweigh the risk. But if you ask me, they should have shut that whole place down right away. Good jobs must be hard to find over there. I wonder how they went about training their new employees after the accadent..

[soylentgreenb]

If the don't do it, millions of people have to get their electricity from oil, gas or coal; which are far more expensive than an already built nuclear plant.

They also kill more people even than Chernobyl(the EPA numbers from the US are about 30 000 deaths per year from coal particulates and 40 000 from vehicle fuel particulates, largely due to the closer proximity of vehicles to people).

[cowtippingrocks]

I dunno. I work in a coal power plant and a lot of that information comes from politicians that dont know what they are talking about. They have ways of making coal clean nowadays, I dont know why these dirty plants arent upgraded.

[soylentgreenb]

"I dunno. I work in a coal power plant and a lot of that information comes from politicians that dont know what they are talking about."

Those are EPA numbers. The EPA attributes most of the deaths from coal particulates in the US to the grandfathered plants from the 50's and 60's.

Do you think a country so strapped for cash that it won't shut down a nuclear reactor located right next to the biggest nuclear disaster in history would go for cheap and dirty or expensive and clean coal?

[Chips95]

Most of the fuel has hardened and dom give away even nearly as much radiation as it did

the first months after the accident

[BlazerLT]

Wrong, most of it is very active and is molten under the reactor still.

[contentlocked99]

mm mm mmm look at all that tasty radioactive waste

[marocpom223MR]

Hey at 3:05 the guy picking up a fuel rod is that live nuclear fuel spewing out of it?!?!?!

[zsvdkhnorc]

Nuclear fuel is solid metal. Assuming that was a fragment of a fuel rod (unlikely, as the whole core was supposed to have liquefied), then I have no idea what was pouring off of it.

[soylentgreenb]

"Nuclear fuel is solid metal."

Nuclear fuel in civilian reactors is almost always in the form of uranium dioxide ceramic pellets inside zirconium tubes.

[zsvdkhnorc]

You are correct, though my point stands. What was spilling off of the fragment was light-colored or clear fluid; uranium dioxide is a black powder.

I also am not sure how my comment got separated from that which I was commenting on:

marocpom223MR's "Hey at 3:05 the guy picking up a fuel rod is that live nuclear fuel spewing out of it?!?!?! "

[soylentgreenb]

"What was spilling off of the fragment was light-colored or clear fluid."

Yes, that would be water.

The tube seen at 3:05 appears to be an RBMK fuel rod holder(which contains 36 zirconium clad fuel pins arranged into two bunches stacked lengthwise. The fuel pins contain a bunch of 15 mm long, 11.5 mm diameter uranium oxide fuel pellets.).

[laurstelistul]

ARE YOU STILL ALIVE :o:o:o OMG MAN YOU ARE SO FUCKING CRAZY .... MAN.... X( X( YOU REALLY DONT HAVE FAMILIES X( YOU DONT HAVE KIDS....

[skyeez]

Around 1 min on this tape is it from Reactor 4 control panel ?

[klipsch21]

yea, cause the control panel for reactors 1,2,and 3 would still be functional because they werent decomissioned yet

[melamia71]

Wow, why does it appear that they are wearing minimal protective gear?

[jacko39]

wow. that is so scary.

[Brokejuggler]

Darkest corner of the Earth...Terrifying.

[CrazyKraut19]

you have some great videos on your account when i first heard of the liquidators and the way they where sacrifised i was 8 years old and it has torn my childish image of mankind apart forever

[MrIhatehomework76]

@CrazyKraut19 I've heardof this at the same age, then I understood that in the world, the hypocresy and money are the basis of all evil
