And our footprint mostly did damage. look at what happened to Chernobyl and how nature fought back and persisted. Despite its damage, there even appeared more birds. Nature doesn’t need us, we’re destroying it rather than letting it bloom. Separating humans from nature even though we should be a part of it. The only reason things will get worse at first is because of the things we build for our sake.
So if you ever find yourself as the only human left on earth your goal is to make it to Las Vegas as quickly as you can, not only would there be electricity to keep things like refrigerators, phones, and various other necessities charged. But depending on the longevity of satellites and internet towers you might even be able to connect to the internet for around a year after everyone is gone
Nah bro, if i am the only human left, what's the point in surviving till death. I would feel so lonely. I would rather choose to die, i can get guns for free, less painful way to die.
One of the very few tangible inventions of man that cannot be degraded. But with the growing years it has become a nuisance for ecology. Wished that plastic wastes are thrown out into outer space.
I absolutely love this! As a biology teacher who recently retired after 31 years of both direct and subversive attempts to teach about conservation, biodiversity, evolution, and the resilience of life, I always reminded my students that extinction is an inevitable consequence of being alive in an evolving world,. So while one day we, like all of the life that preceded us, will fade into life's history, living things will persist and be just fine even if we are not.
Except humans as intelligent beings have literally saw no need to physically evolve when we could just create tools to adapt and even change the environment. We will not go extinct. Humanity will Ascend.
This is my only issue with this otherwise fantastic video. Im no expert but I've read the same thing and I've watched other videos covering this hypothesis and none mentioned nuclear reactors exploding.
One thing you didn't mention was learned behaviour. The ingress of wild species might take a few generations, and species that learned to fear humans gradually return. Nuclear reactors will eventually 'scram' and go cold, not explode. Degradation of houses would take considerably longer, there are plenty of real world abandoned examples. Highly doubt any plastic would last more than 100,000 years, let alone 100 Million. Rushmore would have eroded long before this. I really enjoyed this video, thank you.
It's interesting what you said about the nuclear power plants. I was wondering they will explode after not been cared of. There must be some kind of ssafety device so they don't just 'exlode', isn't there?
@@kuroimae-ashihorbuch-kanal6537 after Chernobyl, Three Mile Island and Fukushima, while popular media was cultivating fear of nuclear technologies for decades? Newer ones just can't explode, while the older ones... I can't say anything concrete about them
Goes to show us that we could have had many iterations of human civilization that started, grew and ended and restarted all over again. Mother Nature just reclaiming the earth before humans start again.
@@shmeediddy. No it hasn't. We would find more stuff than some stone structures/sculptures and simple tools, there would be high tech stuff that would be found but still nothing.
You may want to rethink the whole “diesel generators being stored in cool water tanks” thing. The diesel generators run pumps that keep the radioactive fuel rods stored in cool water. And without this cool water the fuel rods will heat up to the point of melt down. Also diesel generators can’t run without air sooooo idk how you expect them to run “stored in water” .
I would love a video on how life on earth would be like as another species with your take on it. It would really be interesting because if we look around the animal kingdom, there are a lot of contestants who would qualify as the next 'human' species.
it's always comforting to me thinking about how the world would fare without us. the only thing that made me sad about this video is probably our pets being alone thinking where we've been. but yea, they (the rest of the world) are all still better off without us.
Because the luxuries of today’s society are built on an incredibly complex and fragile foundation. Doesn’t take much for said foundation to come undone.
We control almost everything. The time will come that we control everything on this planet: even the weather. Next step to take is controlling other planets, stars, the galaxy. It all comes down to the question: will we as humans make it?
Genuinely I think any aliens that visit when the only evidence of us is fossils, plastic, and mouth Rushmore they would just think Mount Rushmore was some weird rock formation.
Great video! One thing though, I am pretty sure that responsibly maintained reactors are designed to fail safely. That doesn't mean that all of them would just calmly turn themselves off, but I think there is pretty much no chance that every single nuclear reactor in the world will just overheat and explode in 10 days. I would be shocked if the majority did not have various backup generators and dead man's switches to shut down in a sustained period of no human input. Do you have a citation for that part of the analysis?
They are designed to shut down and even if they did explode we saw that in Fukushima and guess what it wasn’t that violent yes we did vent some gases but all that did was save the 2 buildings that didn’t explode then look at how the fall out in Chernobyl(exploded due to a design flaw) the nature has survived and there are dogs and other animals that roam and are fine nuclear power has dangers but this was not accurate to those dangers and these types of inaccurate and misleading information about nuclear power is part of why we didn’t start using it more that and blame metropolitan Edison for their public handling of three mile island and we rely on fossil fuels not the cleaner safer more efficient nuclear
You saw what happened in Fukushima; the reactors did shut down but the failure of the diesel water pumps meant that the coolant water gradually overheated from residual heat until the hydrogen produced blew the top off the containment building and exposed the cores. There'd be no tsunami to knock out the generators in this scenario but the backup diesel store would only last a few days.
@@Error6503 they were tiny explosions not nearly enough to do a fraction of what happened and it was because the reactor had to cool before it was safe and lost water being pumped in because the generators got flooded if we were gone the generators are automatic and the reactor would cool down and nothing would happen you understand you put control rods in the temperature it was at doesnt magically disappear but when it dissipates because there isn’t neutrons flowing and keeping the reaction going but getting absorbed by the control rods there wouldn’t be a heat issue or a hydrogen build up a reactor can be safely shut down and once it’s cooled down it won’t be hot enough to boil the water again orphan sources are the example they are warm to the touch but will not boil water and those have more of a reaction going inside them than a reactor that has been shut down. You look at instances of failure as if it’s the common place you learn barely about it then try to use it as it’s gonna happen maybe one reactor out of all if they all shut down would run into a problem and the resulting explosion would be so minor that it wouldn’t even be noticed Fukushima was also 10 years ago be have made a lot of strides with technology since then also and have learned from the Fukushima disaster I don’t think someone who can’t understand that the heat will dissipate and be a non issue due to the stopping of the reaction is a great source compared to the scientists who designed the systems and have had so much scrutiny on them from the minuscule amount of failures they have had over the years but hey most nuclear disasters happened due to human error not the automated systems hell there was evidence of a reactor happening in nature in a cave that didn’t cause an explosion or any issues but again get the bunker ready am I right.
@@thesilkygamer7332 Talk to the Asian countries currently objecting to the release of waste water from Fukushima whether they think it was a "tiny explosion" ! The control rods stop the neutron chain reaction but don't stop the heat from nuclear decay (about 6% of the total heat). According to Scientific America "NRC regulatory requirements for emergency power supplies is that they be available on the order of a month. You can render a plant in an acceptable condition within a few hours. However, heat is still being generated. If you had to stop, at any point, carrying away that heat, it would start building up again. Emergency cooling systems have to be available for weeks". And I doubt many can operate for weeks with absolutely zero human interaction. The average age of nuclear power plants in the US is 40, although I'm sure lessons were learned from Fukushima it is too late to make drastic changes to how most of those plants operate.
@@Error6503 you really don’t understand the heat of 6% isn’t enough to boil water it takes a lot of energy to boil water I even said hot to the touch but hot to humans is 110 plus it’s around 160 that it’s scalding to humans 212 is boiling the heat is generated from the reaction which never is really turned off the rods just absorb the neutrons limiting the amount the reaction cascades into which generates the heat that boils the water then the steam is used to turn turbines but when you shut down the reactor the water that is in the containment chamber won’t boil off or leave the chamber once it is cooled down meaning it won’t do anything but sit there it’s why spent fuel which is still radioactive can be placed in water it doesn’t boil it and the water absorbs the radiation. Fukushima was a tiny explosion it just was basically a dirty bomb because of how the containment chamber cracked in the meltdown so the run off went into the ground water and also into the ocean I’m not saying it wasn’t a disaster I’m saying it wasn’t a big explosion it was a dirty tiny explosion just because people remember this whole thing is people are gone the wildlife have been successful in living in irradiated places just like we would the thing is you are thinking about the quality of their lives that don’t matter because those animals won’t care about the radiation you would why we have a longer lifespan than alot of animals that means more radiation that means more mutations which means cancer and a shorter lifespan dogs cats other animals have a shorter lifespan meaning less radiation less mutations maybe cutting their life shorter by a year or 2 not 30 years like us 30 years has significance 2 doesn’t and again there might be one reactor that doesn’t shutdown and get to a safe equilibrium where the reaction doesn’t deplete the water source that is inside of the containment vessel reactors have those redundancies that as long as that pump gets the reactor cool after it shuts down the heat generated will not boil the water and the water will stay in the containment chamber meaning no explosion no danger it would take decades if not centuries for the concrete to deteriorate due to its thickness by the way lifespan matters for operating temps which won’t be an issue as it’s shut down there is a chance that something can go wrong but it’s soooo small that if it happens it would happen to one plant and that is minuscule scale matters one explosion hasn’t darkened our clouds and put a black mist on every thing like the video states meaning it’s factually inaccurate it’s possible but the chances realistically are so slim you could do something meaningful with your existence has a better chance of happening which rn seems practically impossible to me it must be shitty to live life where everything is such a tiny scope and always a shitty outlook humans were not first on this planet and we won’t be last animals are resistent and nuclear power isn’t doom and gloom there are less deaths because of nuclear disasters than there are people who have died to mining our other ways of creating power and I said disasters don’t start bringing up the native people of the atolls or Hiroshima there are alot of nuclear reactors in this world and very few disasters
I can't get over the very weird sound artifact on the high spectrums on all of your videos that I watched. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan, and I'm guessin its the result of a noise removal from a macbook. Have you tried izotope RX10? There is a button called "Spectral Restoration". Oh just curious, what software do you use for the compressor? The presence of your voice, the volume and dynamics are very well mastered. The volume especially is super optimal, compared to other videos I watch.
i've watched a ton of aperture's videos and never noticed any weird artifacts, it could be an issue on your end. either that or i just haven't payed close enough attention to it lol
Real ones know this wasn't the original vid. Jokes aside, my faith in humanity is always restored when you post. Thank you for keeping these videos coming, Aperture!
A power failure at a nuclear power plant would not result in explosion , it would be a meltdown for the core , the issue is if the moderator rods would automatically activate and the quality of the concrete containment building for the used fuel cooling pond , it would be a meltdown , the world outside would not really notice
Yeah I would think they have safety features that would shut the reactors down automatically without regular human intervention. Kind of like driver vigilance systems on trains.
This is exactly why there is absolutely no doubt in my mind, that there have been countless of other civilisations, or even races, living here on this planet, before us.

@@fredjimbob2962 keep in mind that Humans becoming intelligent species was basically just luck in the entire history of earth, never has there ever been any other civilization before us, so it's possible it would be extremely rare foe a new intelligent species to replace us, humans evolved to be intelligent because of the harsh environment that pushed us to do so, while chimps have stayed pretty much the same for years because their environment is perfect.
@@bluruckuscrx8124 It hard to know how lucky we were, I don't think either of us knows for sure. Maybe we could have evolved earlier or a few million years later. Things like the dinosaurs going extinct, leaving an ecological gap for the mammals could be seen as lucky but if it hadn't of happened then, maybe it would have happened 100 million years later or maybe mammals would have out competed dinosaurs eventually anyway, it's impossible to say. While you can look back at events and say "that was luck", there could have been many other alternative ways that intelligent life could have evolved on Earth even if it would have taken perhaps a lot longer. With sample size of only one, it hard to say what the chances of intelligent life evolving once life has started. What we can say is that Earth has been a pretty much an ideal environment for life for a long time. >while chimps have stayed pretty much the same for years because their environment is perfect. For years yes, but who knows what could happen in millions of (or even a billion) years on a Earth with no humans.
Amazing to think that in millions of years there would hardly be any trace of our existence! I have no doubt this will happen at some point and I pity any sole survivors in the initial stages!
The nuclear power plants would have shut down automatically, not literally all gone into meltdown They aren't all (even back then) the junkheap that Chernobyl had

Hey Mike, I hope you're taking suggestions for topics for your videos. I have some cool ideas. I want to learn them from your Videography. 1. CLONING: Human Cloning, it's applications, it's dangers, it's misusage, Political interests, National security and so on. 2.Any concepts of PSEUDOSCIENCE. I hope you'd consider it. Do take the philosophical approach, but also more scientific approach. It would really help with my research. Need a comprehensive view on the topics.
The nuclear explanation was a little wonky. Maybe it's the way he worded it, but that's not entirely accurate. The generators won't overheat and explode. The generators come online when there is a loss of grid power. The reactors will go in to shutdown mode and the generators will keep the pumps going, which cools the reactors. Eventually, the generators will run out of fuel, which stops the water from pumping, which makes the reactors overheat. Even then, most reactors probably wouldn't explode, they would melt down, causing the fuel to burn through their containment vessels and into the ground beneath the plant. This has many other horrible ramifications, but it wouldn't happen all at the same time, as there are several different kinds of reactors and containment systems which would behave differently.
A further bunch of notes: The satellites wouldn't fall out of the sky because of a lack of battery power. They use solar panels. They would fall out of the sky because all satellites have slowly degrading orbits. Some have fuel onboard to boost their orbits to prevent this. Eventually, they would all run dry and come back to Earth. Some satellites and the ISS would burn up within a decade, but many satellites are in higher orbits that degrade much more slowly. This would most likely take centuries, not decades. Rivets are used in some bridge construction, but not all. It's more likely that the concrete bridges would fail first. The Eiffel Tower is NOT made of steel. It's made of wrought iron, which is a very different alloy of iron. The Statue of Liberty has a wrought iron core paneled with copper sheets. Mt. Rushmore is maintained constantly. It's unlikely it would last more than a few hundred years without human intervention. Cracks in the granite have to be filled to prevent water from entering and cracking the rock during winters.
The reactors would only overheat if they didn’t go into shutdown the reason they even produce heat is the chain reaction is exothermic if your logic about it was correct how would they be able to use cooling tanks for the “spent fuel” they are still radioactive but without the chain reaction there is minimal heat maybe enough to feel warm but not even close to boiling water orphan sources are how you can verify my point btw the people who have found them get radiation burns after they leave them they don’t get physically burned from the heat which would be the case if they were able to boil water in a more dormant state
@@thesilkygamer7332Right, my point was that the reactors wouldn't overheat and explode because they would go in to shutdown due to the generators and automated safety systems.
@@doggonemess1 Yeah the vast majority of reactors would automatically safely enter some kind of shutdown phase, though over the months and years the elements (particularly due to fires or natural disasters) would degrade the containment systems eventually leading to groundwater and air contamination in those areas from partial or total meltdowns. Even those that did explode it wouldn't be like a nuclear detonation- the steam pressure and hydrogen explosions would just fracture the containment shell releasing radioactive gasses. This is an interesting video but it does have some illogical areas based on how science and engineering works.
This is truly going to happen one day. As we see human society is degenerating and degrading day by day. The day will come when very few will remain alive to see the earth and nature turn around.
Great vid as usual. But I'll ask the question we all really want answered: How long until the UA-cam ads stop interrupting the videos? [In your scenario we won't be there to notice, but just curious.]
I'm glad you're still narrating your stuff but that title screams clit bait. I feel like if this was a prior video of yours it would have just been a What if? not a , Here's What if. You were always asking the question not giving us the answer. hopefully the new writing team you have doesn't trend to far away from your OG content. always been a fan. I hope you only see this as constructive criticism .
Have you guys seen the tv series "Y The last man". In that series only men die, women lived. In that, there was a struggle for humans to reproduce. Eventually going extinct in few years. This idea is not new and I think all of us have many time imagined what will happen if there were no humans on Earth. Humans are just one type of ignorant animal who think world is built for them mainly because of the biblical description of the human origin. They don't see it doesn't matter if you live or die. Keeping safe what you have is the only thing that matters. Otherwise it is a possibility that humans may evaporated from the face of the Earth. And everything is possible.
Humans wouldn't go extinct if all men died, women can reproduce between themselves with in vitro fertilization. There would be a society of only women.
the fact that after 300years every building falls apart from the ancient buildings like the pyramids speaks alot about ancient civilization . nice video

This is so optimistic, I cannot wait for this to happen; of course I will not be here to see it😏. Seriously though, This planet deserves something better than humans.
There would not be a nuclear meltdown, once human input stops the safety mechanisms of all the nuclear power plants will kick in which will stop the nuclear reaction within 6 hours of the last human interaction. Once the control rods of Boron are fully inserted into the reaction chamber of the reactor the reaction stops, and the fuel for the diesel generators is sufficient for the cooling period of the reactor without an ongoing reaction in the chamber. It is a lay myth that without human intervention nuclear reactions will lead to meltdowns, this is not the case as there have always been safety mechanisms to prevent the reaction from running out of control, these controls were strengthened after the Chonobol disaster. Yes, there would be pockets of radioactivity where the reactors (or nuclear weapons were) but this would be localised and the decay would follow a well-established path course some issues as the buildings eventually degrade but not the disaster implied by this video.
In reality, the Earth doesn't even know nor care that we exist on its surface. Since its formation billions of years ago it has undergone and survived countless catastrophic events to reach the point it has today. We're merely a temporary virus on its surface, a skin rash, if you will. It'll continue it's journey through the galaxy for a few more billion years and that'll be that.
@ 04;05 The diesel generators aren't stored in cold water tanks. The used fuel rods are stored in tanks - the diesel generators circulate the water to keep the fuel rods cool (amongst other things) in the event of electrical outage. The rods won't explode per-se, but they will boil off the water (which also acts as a radiation shield) and then with no cooling water will burst into flame. And if there are no humans around, this happening won't occur in 'Human history' as there is no one left to record this.
This is beautiful. We humans think we've conquered our world but the reality is we are as fragile and insignificant as we were 100,000 years ago. Earth will continue on, with or without us, until our star engulfs it in its final stages of life. That we aren't focused on this inevitability, blows my mind. Imagine what humans could accomplish if we weren't so focused on our own tiny lives. For me, the focus of our species should be solidly on making sure we survive as long as possible, to see what is possible. That will require moving on from this planet. I'd love to say we are working in that direction, but, it would be a lie. We're so quagmired in superficial, ignorant, short-sighted, illogical, apathetic, delusionary concepts that it is hard to see us surviving for much longer, in the grand sceme of time. If we aren't smart enough to realize this, so be it. Let's make room for the next species to try.
What are you talking about lmao? Space exploration is taking big leaps recently. The sun is expected to explode in another 10 billion years. The main issue we are facing right now is climate change and global warming which people are starting to take actions to try and resolve. Not everyone can be focusing on these things because the world still needs to function and most of the jobs people are doing are necessary for that.

Oh happy time
4:40 my guy have u heard of a fail safe? Nuclear reactors have those, they woulnt just explode bc a lack of humans.
''a fail safe''.
To an extent, but all of these would would fail at some point.
they are way safer then u think
failsafes dont last forever.
This is my only issue with this otherwise fantastic video. Im no expert but I've read the same thing and I've watched other videos covering this hypothesis and none mentioned nuclear reactors exploding.
Now we need a part two of what would happen if everyone reappeared
There would be enough energy for the resurgence of the celestial to happen
Yes after 1m years humans should reappear.
@@mishazakra eternals reference?
Guess I don't wanna happen that
Or world without men
One thing you didn't mention was learned behaviour. The ingress of wild species might take a few generations, and species that learned to fear humans gradually return. Nuclear reactors will eventually 'scram' and go cold, not explode. Degradation of houses would take considerably longer, there are plenty of real world abandoned examples. Highly doubt any plastic would last more than 100,000 years, let alone 100 Million. Rushmore would have eroded long before this. I really enjoyed this video, thank you.
It's interesting what you said about the nuclear power plants. I was wondering they will explode after not been cared of. There must be some kind of ssafety device so they don't just 'exlode', isn't there?

@@shmeediddy. No it hasn't. We would find more stuff than some stone structures/sculptures and simple tools, there would be high tech stuff that would be found but still nothing.
You may want to rethink the whole “diesel generators being stored in cool water tanks” thing. The diesel generators run pumps that keep the radioactive fuel rods stored in cool water. And without this cool water the fuel rods will heat up to the point of melt down. Also diesel generators can’t run without air sooooo idk how you expect them to run “stored in water” .
There was a series a few years ago called Life after People. It covered all this and a lot more. Definitely worth checking out!

I would love a video on how life on earth would be like as another species with your take on it. It would really be interesting because if we look around the animal kingdom, there are a lot of contestants who would qualify as the next 'human' species.

Such a fascinating and existentially inspiring video - I love it 💯
This video makes me really question if we as humans are living harmoniously? How can some much destruction come after just 10 days... 😯
Because the luxuries of today’s society are built on an incredibly complex and fragile foundation. Doesn’t take much for said foundation to come undone.
We control almost everything. The time will come that we control everything on this planet: even the weather. Next step to take is controlling other planets, stars, the galaxy. It all comes down to the question: will we as humans make it?
You're only questioning that now? No, humans are not living "harmoniously" with the earth.
Humans are parasites to earth. Have you ever owned a pet with fleas ? Within 2 days the pet heals up quickly. Like earth if we were all gone
Humans and the Earth are living so harmoniously that the Earth needs humans in order to avoid such destruction in such a short time frame.
Genuinely I think any aliens that visit when the only evidence of us is fossils, plastic, and mouth Rushmore they would just think Mount Rushmore was some weird rock formation.
Sounds back!
How interesting! I'd take issue with a few of your time assessments, but it was extremely thought-provoking.
Great video! One thing though, I am pretty sure that responsibly maintained reactors are designed to fail safely. That doesn't mean that all of them would just calmly turn themselves off, but I think there is pretty much no chance that every single nuclear reactor in the world will just overheat and explode in 10 days. I would be shocked if the majority did not have various backup generators and dead man's switches to shut down in a sustained period of no human input.
Do you have a citation for that part of the analysis?
They are designed to shut down and even if they did explode we saw that in Fukushima and guess what it wasn’t that violent yes we did vent some gases but all that did was save the 2 buildings that didn’t explode then look at how the fall out in Chernobyl(exploded due to a design flaw) the nature has survived and there are dogs and other animals that roam and are fine nuclear power has dangers but this was not accurate to those dangers and these types of inaccurate and misleading information about nuclear power is part of why we didn’t start using it more that and blame metropolitan Edison for their public handling of three mile island and we rely on fossil fuels not the cleaner safer more efficient nuclear
You saw what happened in Fukushima; the reactors did shut down but the failure of the diesel water pumps meant that the coolant water gradually overheated from residual heat until the hydrogen produced blew the top off the containment building and exposed the cores. There'd be no tsunami to knock out the generators in this scenario but the backup diesel store would only last a few days.
@@Error6503 they were tiny explosions not nearly enough to do a fraction of what happened and it was because the reactor had to cool before it was safe and lost water being pumped in because the generators got flooded if we were gone the generators are automatic and the reactor would cool down and nothing would happen you understand you put control rods in the temperature it was at doesnt magically disappear but when it dissipates because there isn’t neutrons flowing and keeping the reaction going but getting absorbed by the control rods there wouldn’t be a heat issue or a hydrogen build up a reactor can be safely shut down and once it’s cooled down it won’t be hot enough to boil the water again orphan sources are the example they are warm to the touch but will not boil water and those have more of a reaction going inside them than a reactor that has been shut down. You look at instances of failure as if it’s the common place you learn barely about it then try to use it as it’s gonna happen maybe one reactor out of all if they all shut down would run into a problem and the resulting explosion would be so minor that it wouldn’t even be noticed Fukushima was also 10 years ago be have made a lot of strides with technology since then also and have learned from the Fukushima disaster I don’t think someone who can’t understand that the heat will dissipate and be a non issue due to the stopping of the reaction is a great source compared to the scientists who designed the systems and have had so much scrutiny on them from the minuscule amount of failures they have had over the years but hey most nuclear disasters happened due to human error not the automated systems hell there was evidence of a reactor happening in nature in a cave that didn’t cause an explosion or any issues but again get the bunker ready am I right.
@@thesilkygamer7332 Talk to the Asian countries currently objecting to the release of waste water from Fukushima whether they think it was a "tiny explosion" ! The control rods stop the neutron chain reaction but don't stop the heat from nuclear decay (about 6% of the total heat). According to Scientific America "NRC regulatory requirements for emergency power supplies is that they be available on the order of a month. You can render a plant in an acceptable condition within a few hours. However, heat is still being generated. If you had to stop, at any point, carrying away that heat, it would start building up again. Emergency cooling systems have to be available for weeks". And I doubt many can operate for weeks with absolutely zero human interaction. The average age of nuclear power plants in the US is 40, although I'm sure lessons were learned from Fukushima it is too late to make drastic changes to how most of those plants operate.
@@Error6503 you really don’t understand the heat of 6% isn’t enough to boil water it takes a lot of energy to boil water I even said hot to the touch but hot to humans is 110 plus it’s around 160 that it’s scalding to humans 212 is boiling the heat is generated from the reaction which never is really turned off the rods just absorb the neutrons limiting the amount the reaction cascades into which generates the heat that boils the water then the steam is used to turn turbines but when you shut down the reactor the water that is in the containment chamber won’t boil off or leave the chamber once it is cooled down meaning it won’t do anything but sit there it’s why spent fuel which is still radioactive can be placed in water it doesn’t boil it and the water absorbs the radiation. Fukushima was a tiny explosion it just was basically a dirty bomb because of how the containment chamber cracked in the meltdown so the run off went into the ground water and also into the ocean I’m not saying it wasn’t a disaster I’m saying it wasn’t a big explosion it was a dirty tiny explosion just because people remember this whole thing is people are gone the wildlife have been successful in living in irradiated places just like we would the thing is you are thinking about the quality of their lives that don’t matter because those animals won’t care about the radiation you would why we have a longer lifespan than alot of animals that means more radiation that means more mutations which means cancer and a shorter lifespan dogs cats other animals have a shorter lifespan meaning less radiation less mutations maybe cutting their life shorter by a year or 2 not 30 years like us 30 years has significance 2 doesn’t and again there might be one reactor that doesn’t shutdown and get to a safe equilibrium where the reaction doesn’t deplete the water source that is inside of the containment vessel reactors have those redundancies that as long as that pump gets the reactor cool after it shuts down the heat generated will not boil the water and the water will stay in the containment chamber meaning no explosion no danger it would take decades if not centuries for the concrete to deteriorate due to its thickness by the way lifespan matters for operating temps which won’t be an issue as it’s shut down there is a chance that something can go wrong but it’s soooo small that if it happens it would happen to one plant and that is minuscule scale matters one explosion hasn’t darkened our clouds and put a black mist on every thing like the video states meaning it’s factually inaccurate it’s possible but the chances realistically are so slim you could do something meaningful with your existence has a better chance of happening which rn seems practically impossible to me it must be shitty to live life where everything is such a tiny scope and always a shitty outlook humans were not first on this planet and we won’t be last animals are resistent and nuclear power isn’t doom and gloom there are less deaths because of nuclear disasters than there are people who have died to mining our other ways of creating power and I said disasters don’t start bringing up the native people of the atolls or Hiroshima there are alot of nuclear reactors in this world and very few disasters

A power failure at a nuclear power plant would not result in explosion , it would be a meltdown
for the core , the issue is if the moderator rods would automatically activate and the quality of the concrete containment building
for the used fuel cooling pond , it would be a meltdown , the world outside would not really notice
Yeah I would think they have safety features that would shut the reactors down automatically without regular human intervention. Kind of like driver vigilance systems on trains.
It will take some time for the odor of human beasts to be gone forever.

@@fredjimbob2962 keep in mind that Humans becoming intelligent species was basically just luck in the entire history of earth, never has there ever been any other civilization before us, so it's possible it would be extremely rare foe a new intelligent species to replace us, humans evolved to be intelligent because of the harsh environment that pushed us to do so, while chimps have stayed pretty much the same for years because their environment is perfect.
@@bluruckuscrx8124 It hard to know how lucky we were, I don't think either of us knows for sure. Maybe we could have evolved earlier or a few million years later. Things like the dinosaurs going extinct, leaving an ecological gap for the mammals could be seen as lucky but if it hadn't of happened then, maybe it would have happened 100 million years later or maybe mammals would have out competed dinosaurs eventually anyway, it's impossible to say. While you can look back at events and say "that was luck", there could have been many other alternative ways that intelligent life could have evolved on Earth even if it would have taken perhaps a lot longer. With sample size of only one, it hard to say what the chances of intelligent life evolving once life has started. What we can say is that Earth has been a pretty much an ideal environment for life for a long time.

The nuclear explanation was a little wonky. Maybe it's the way he worded it, but that's not entirely accurate. The generators won't overheat and explode. The generators come online when there is a loss of grid power. The reactors will go in to shutdown mode and the generators will keep the pumps going, which cools the reactors. Eventually, the generators will run out of fuel, which stops the water from pumping, which makes the reactors overheat. Even then, most reactors probably wouldn't explode, they would melt down, causing the fuel to burn through their containment vessels and into the ground beneath the plant. This has many other horrible ramifications, but it wouldn't happen all at the same time, as there are several different kinds of reactors and containment systems which would behave differently.
A further bunch of notes:
The satellites wouldn't fall out of the sky because of a lack of battery power. They use solar panels. They would fall out of the sky because all satellites have slowly degrading orbits. Some have fuel onboard to boost their orbits to prevent this. Eventually, they would all run dry and come back to Earth. Some satellites and the ISS would burn up within a decade, but many satellites are in higher orbits that degrade much more slowly. This would most likely take centuries, not decades.
Rivets are used in some bridge construction, but not all. It's more likely that the concrete bridges would fail first.
The Eiffel Tower is NOT made of steel. It's made of wrought iron, which is a very different alloy of iron. The Statue of Liberty has a wrought iron core paneled with copper sheets.
Mt. Rushmore is maintained constantly. It's unlikely it would last more than a few hundred years without human intervention. Cracks in the granite have to be filled to prevent water from entering and cracking the rock during winters.
The reactors would only overheat if they didn’t go into shutdown the reason they even produce heat is the chain reaction is exothermic if your logic about it was correct how would they be able to use cooling tanks for the “spent fuel” they are still radioactive but without the chain reaction there is minimal heat maybe enough to feel warm but not even close to boiling water orphan sources are how you can verify my point btw the people who have found them get radiation burns after they leave them they don’t get physically burned from the heat which would be the case if they were able to boil water in a more dormant state
@@thesilkygamer7332Right, my point was that the reactors wouldn't overheat and explode because they would go in to shutdown due to the generators and automated safety systems.
@@doggonemess1 Yeah the vast majority of reactors would automatically safely enter some kind of shutdown phase, though over the months and years the elements (particularly due to fires or natural disasters) would degrade the containment systems eventually leading to groundwater and air contamination in those areas from partial or total meltdowns. Even those that did explode it wouldn't be like a nuclear detonation- the steam pressure and hydrogen explosions would just fracture the containment shell releasing radioactive gasses. This is an interesting video but it does have some illogical areas based on how science and engineering works.
All great comments. Thanks for sharing

Have you guys seen the tv series "Y The last man". In that series only men die, women lived. In that, there was a struggle for humans to reproduce. Eventually going extinct in few years. This idea is not new and I think all of us have many time imagined what will happen if there were no humans on Earth. Humans are just one type of ignorant animal who think world is built for them mainly because of the biblical description of the human origin. They don't see it doesn't matter if you live or die. Keeping safe what you have is the only thing that matters. Otherwise it is a possibility that humans may evaporated from the face of the Earth. And everything is possible.
Humans wouldn't go extinct if all men died, women can reproduce between themselves with in vitro fertilization. There would be a society of only women.
The "Horrors" That Would Follow are Beyond Imagination!! I Hope This Never, Ever Happens!!

You are an animal too; you don't deserve this either.
There would not be a nuclear meltdown, once human input stops the safety mechanisms of all the nuclear power plants will kick in which will stop the nuclear reaction within 6 hours of the last human interaction. Once the control rods of Boron are fully inserted into the reaction chamber of the reactor the reaction stops, and the fuel for the diesel generators is sufficient for the cooling period of the reactor without an ongoing reaction in the chamber.
It is a lay myth that without human intervention nuclear reactions will lead to meltdowns, this is not the case as there have always been safety mechanisms to prevent the reaction from running out of control, these controls were strengthened after the Chonobol disaster. Yes, there would be pockets of radioactivity where the reactors (or nuclear weapons were) but this would be localised and the decay would follow a well-established path course some issues as the buildings eventually degrade but not the disaster implied by this video.
How lucky the Earth would be if this were to actually happen.
In reality, the Earth doesn't even know nor care that we exist on its surface. Since its formation billions of years ago it has undergone and survived countless catastrophic events to reach the point it has today. We're merely a temporary virus on its surface, a skin rash, if you will. It'll continue it's journey through the galaxy for a few more billion years and that'll be that.
Excellent video.
History Channel did an entire series on this exact summary video 14 years ago. "Life After People".
Thank you, i'll watch definitely 👍
@ 04;05 The diesel generators aren't stored in cold water tanks. The used fuel rods are stored in tanks - the diesel generators circulate the water to keep the fuel rods cool (amongst other things) in the event of electrical outage. The rods won't explode per-se, but they will boil off the water (which also acts as a radiation shield) and then with no cooling water will burst into flame.
And if there are no humans around, this happening won't occur in 'Human history' as there is no one left to record this.
This is beautiful. We humans think we've conquered our world but the reality is we are as fragile and insignificant as we were 100,000 years ago. Earth will continue on, with or without us, until our star engulfs it in its final stages of life. That we aren't focused on this inevitability, blows my mind. Imagine what humans could accomplish if we weren't so focused on our own tiny lives. For me, the focus of our species should be solidly on making sure we survive as long as possible, to see what is possible. That will require moving on from this planet. I'd love to say we are working in that direction, but, it would be a lie. We're so quagmired in superficial, ignorant, short-sighted, illogical, apathetic, delusionary concepts that it is hard to see us surviving for much longer, in the grand sceme of time. If we aren't smart enough to realize this, so be it. Let's make room for the next species to try.
It’s strangely calming
What are you talking about lmao? Space exploration is taking big leaps recently. The sun is expected to explode in another 10 billion years. The main issue we are facing right now is climate change and global warming which people are starting to take actions to try and resolve.
Not everyone can be focusing on these things because the world still needs to function and most of the jobs people are doing are necessary for that.
