if i remember correctly people thought that the evactuation was temporary so that they left a lot of their things untouched behind and never came back for them

A civilian asks an officer why they are wearing gas masks and hazardous material suits. The officers tell the man "It is a training exercise, move along." to avoid spreading panic.

Such an amazing city, such a horrifying loss. The crown Jewel of Soviet Ukraine, Hell, maybe the entire Soviet Union. My eternal respect for those who lost their homes, lives, and loved ones.

HUMAN IS DEAD

Ordenary people dont die for their duty. Or for others.

Guys, the firemen and all the people who helped this disaster are not hero's. just ordinary people who did what they knew they had to do not just for them, but to help others.

@Furizah you are so right....

@TheFuckthisshit Under these circumstances, yes in my opinion. As I previously said: we all have different views and opinions but I consider these individuals heroes. We don't have to agree on that, but that's my view on the matter. And since you brought Japan up - the very same definition of hero can be applied to that personnel (firemen, nuclear plant workers etc) as well.

"Hero: a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. A role model "
The workers simply were military reservists that were taken to the place and had to go there by military rules.
If someone is forced to do something that sacrifices him and helps others, then the guy who was forced to kill himself is a hero in your eyes ?
A hero does something heroic by his free will and not by force of a 3rd party.
Fits better to the firemen in tokyo...
Huge respects for the people who helped clean this mess; as much as it could be cleaned at the time. Many people laid their lives to give us a better future, I know that is a debt that I as an individual or we as a nation can never pay back. Best way perhaps is making sure that this never happens again, and if it does I'll be proud to give my life as those brave warriors in 1986. To me they'll never be bio-robots, they were remarkable human beings who bought us a brighter future with their blood
