Newly uncovered footage from the Russian state media archive shows the brave men dubbed as "the bio robots" attempting to tackle the nuclear meltdown at Chernobyl in April 1986. The men shown in this rare clip would all perish soon after due to the intense levels of radiation to which they were exposed.

They were dubbed "bio" robots, because they are biological beings, given to do a robot's job.

The real robot's electrical and mechanical systems malfunctioned from the massive amounts of radiation they were exposed to, so these men courageously volunteered to do the robot's job.

  • This exact sort of thing happened just recently in Japan. The workers were irradiated with extreme doses to be able to work and secure the damaged reactor. This is what is called national pride. Those are the words that the Russian men used in the interviews years after they volunteered. The same words were used by the Japanese men to explain to the reporter what they were doing and why.

    It's things like this that make me wonder if generation Xbox would consider national pride if needed.

  • @NOXXism That's a hard question to answer, those people were very brave, they literally sacrifised themselves for the rest of the world, not knowing they would die or live, but they still did it. Either because they all had nothing to lose or they someone out there worth protecting with their lives. Either way, it's thanks to them i'm alive.
