Chernobyl's catastrophe was just a big big human mistake.
everyone gangsta till the control rods start jumping
i would´ve just jumped on that fcker so atleast my life ends quickly. xD
The control rods never jumped during the incident
Infact they were locked in place
Dyatlov: I lowered the control rods from the other panel
Akimov: They are still up.. they are only a third of the way in and I do not know why... I already sent the trainees to lower them manually...
This was in the miniseries
Highlithing the fact that the tips of the control rods (graphite) were locked in place after the explosion which meant that the control rods only worsened the situation as barely any boron touched the core and mostly just graphite touched it. Thus the core heated... and heated... and heated....
@@DanksterPaws ok so what were the things that were jumping then?
They were very heavy metal that weighed hundreds of kilograms...

My grandfather was one of the people who were cleaning the rooftop of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor from the radioactive materials.
He was brought with another group of people on December 19-th, 1986. And the radiation was so high that they were allowed to spend only one minute on the roof.
After that he was helping in the civilian areas for another month...
My grandfather never told me this story, after he died I found documents of the USSR thanking him for his service and documents acknowledging his bravery in cleaning the roof from the radioactive materials. His name was Nikolay Zhuchenko. I miss him ❤😔
Edit: for all wondering, he was a builder in his daily life... So he was probably helping in the civilian areas with something related to that

Tom Scott did a video about this exact problem; how to bury radioactive waste so that it can never be found and uncovered, even 100,000 years from now.
The people who toiled to contain this disaster after being told they would die if the did so were absolute heroes and should be remembered for saving life as we know it across Europe in a yearly memorial day. Their bravery and self sacrifice was awe inspiring
Yes! Also, do you think any of the radiation spread to other continents or just europe? Africa, Americas? What about Fukushima?

@@bradleywoodie9219 that's highly unlikely Fukushima wasn't as badly as Chernobyl i think....

RIP Valery Legasov. Told the truth, was silenced, left his memories on tape before commiting suicide 2 years after the desaster.
Explain?
@@AirborneIH He was the brain at the side of the man in charge sent to the site by the government. In the first hours and days, the KGB kept the desaster under the cover to preserve the national image, delaying evacuation and even holding annual festivities normally to not raise suspicion. A police robot they got from Germany failed immediately upon trying to push radioactive rubble from the roof, because the level of radiation was drastically understated. Many in the hazard zone were not informed until the next day, they rather got the news from international research personnel who quickly detected the severity of radiation and located the source of the nuclear incident. When the three persons responsible for the catastrophe were tried in court, Legasov told the exact truth, even confessing having covered up information about the real risks of russian RMBK reactor types in a document in order to preserve the nation's image. His direct criticism on the tyranny of the KGB led to him being suspended from his job (while keeping his title, again to avoid suspicion), and commiting suicide two years later, with his memoirs recorded on several audio tapes. His suicide then drew much attention to the desaster again, with his memoirs being thoroughly examined by many scientists and shedding light on the real slip-ups that led to the tragedy. Many other similar RMBK reactors were subsequently shut down or modified to avoid the same catastrophe in the future.
Legasov was a very accomplished man, having earned all national honor medals but one, which he would've earned by common sense for his engagement at the site but was denied to him multiple times in fear of spreading the wrong message.
@@MrSaemichlaus damn he's a real hero. Perhaps his own sacrifice may have prevented even more nuclear disasters with those reactors all over Russia.
@@MrSaemichlaus Also if you read Leagsovs tapes then he says that the evacuation was decided on the evening of the 26th (the same day as the accident) and executed on the next day even though the measurements showed radiation between one and tens of milliroentgen per hours which was within allowable limits according to regulation. 75 was the upper limit that was allowed without evacuation. According to his tapes the soviets did not delay evacuation.
Worker at home 3 miles away from chernobyl: Sees huge explosion
Also the worker: Oh no, Anyways. *Returns to work next day*
One of the main problems with Chernobyls reactor is it was designed with a positive temperature coefficient of reactivity meaning as the reactor got hotter, the fission would speed up, leading to a snowball effect. Most reactors now have a negative tcr meaning as it gets hotter, the power goes down making it naturally stable.
Thank you for this.When I watched HBO Chernobyl series,in the last series it said that it had a positive tcr,and i didnt understood that,so again thank you.
Apparently the reason for that was they could use less enrich fuel which is cheaper

There’s a giant crane on the inside of the New Confinement Arch that’s used to pick up and dismantle the sarcophagus and reactor itself. There’s a special kind of train that it would be dumped into to take it away. The arch also has huge dehumidifiers to put air into the arch because the moisture would cause the metal in the arch to rust and then make it collapse, so it lasts way longer

It actually IS a stretch to say it was the most dangerous place to be in the world. Even limiting it to just nuclear, there were and are far worse. At the time there was Lake Karachay. This wasn't a nuclear disaster, it was an intentional dumping of nuclear waste from weapons research which is far more radioactive, making the lake fatal to even stand on the shore of. In the last decade it has been filled in and sealed.
Chernobyl was the worst nuclear energy disaster, but nuclear weapons research did much worse and much more often. The two lakes in Russia, northern England and the US all had massive areas of contamination from nuclear weapons development, and numerous places had far worse contamination from testing. Kodak was able to determine where the plume of each nuclear test blew from it contaminating the water at different film factories more than a thousand miles east.
The "400x the radioactive material as Hiroshima" sounds scary, but it's worth remembering that 95% of the nuclear fuel never left the reactor and the majority of the radioactive cloud's emissions were from short lived isotopes such as xenon-135 (which was what poisoned the reaction in the first place, leading to the fatal decision to remove the control rods). Certainly a disaster that never should be repeated, but comparing it to a nuclear weapon is irresponsible. The persistent danger is bioaccumulative isotopes like strontium-90 and iodine-135 that have half-lives in the 30 year range and would significantly increase your risk of cancer if you lived there long-term. (There is also cesium-137 but it doesn't bioaccumulate so it is a risk, but a lower risk than strontium-90 and iodine-135.)
Also - Before someone comments about the invasion, the digging, burning and heavy vehicles did stir up radioactive dust, but the concentrations in those areas were low enough that it's less dangerous than smoking - granted, both that and smoking are stupid risks to take, but that's the order of risk it's on. There is a claim that one Russian safety officer broke into a nuclear waste storage and held cobalt-60 in his bare hands and that's the only one reported to have done anything that would get anything close to radiation sickness. Cobalt-60 is very dangerous, but it has a much shorter half life and not much of it was in the fallout. It's mostly used as a radiation source for things like testing detectors, though some would naturally form in the reactor as well.
The problem with overinflating the fear of nuclear energy the way Greenwashpeace and others have done, is that it carelessly stokes the fears that prevent action against climate change. These ill-informed panics like that in the wake of Fukishima caused countries like Germany to INCREASE greenhouse gas emissions by taking safe nuclear reactors offline and switching to natural gas instead. While it would be nice if we could just flip a switch and have everything on solar and wind with battery systems to manage variable generation, we can't. Lithium has supply chain issues and its own ecological impact is being questioned now.
Nuclear, even including the Chernobyl disaster, has killed fewer people per terrawatt hour than wind. And that's without considering the impact of toxins dumped into the environment from developing the battery systems. Don't get me wrong, battery beats the hell out of fossil fuels, and we expect the process to improve, but while we produced 250 kilotons of high level nuclear waste in the last 70 years (not all of it from energy) that will remain dangerous on the order of 100,000 years...toxic waste doesn't have a half life. So dumping 12 kiloliters of antimony and arsenic contaminated water per minute from just one lithium mine in normal operation should get at least as much concern as a nearly 40 year old reactor disaster. We should be using a diverse set of alternatives to get off the known worst offender (fossil fuels) and be working to make those as safe and sustainable as possible before we start fearmongering about literally one of the safest forms of energy.

I'm not sure what you were attempting to imply here? First, no, radiation is not the sole cause of cancer, nor is it a direct cause. Cancer (simplified) is a random mutation that can occur in certain cells that cause them to reproduce uncontrollably. These mutations happen constantly in your body, but it usually manages to detect the mistake and correct it. Occasionally your body misses and let's a mutation through. Radiation can accelerate the rate of these mutations and make it more likely they get through and become cancer. We treat cancer with concentrated doses of radiation, in order to attempt to target and destroy groups of cancerous cells.
@@Ryan-44 It's a reference to the show
@@Ryan-44 What? You sure as hell can get cancer from ionizing radiation exposure.
@@amorag59 The exposure itself would not give you cancer. It would drastically increase your chance at getting cancer.

I think there's actually a pretty good argument to be made that the total dollar amount of damage caused by the Chernobyl disaster is immeasurable. It's one thing to calculate the cost of cleanup and mitigation, infrastructure damages, economic losses, and healthcare costs; however there is a case to be made that Chernobyl was among the (if not the) leading factor in the collapse of the Soviet Union because it brought to bear some of the serious flaws in the Soviet government at a time when hardliners where fighting against a Soviet population desperate for modernization. If this is the case, the actual dollar amount could easily reach into the trillions if it could be calculated at all. After all, how do you calculate economic costs of the collapse of several nations simultaneously?

I wanna see someone blowing up Chernobyl and see the aftermath
1:51 “PRICE, Hide me behind the Ferris wheel and get into a good sniping position!”
If this is what damage can be wreaked by an accident inside power plant,it's utterly terrifying what a nuclear conflict would result in.the finish of humanity almost a certainty
"forever"? The new containment is only expected to last 100 yrs.
he said for the next century
Yup! So then it will someone else's problam. The thing is though, and many people may not agree, but the biggest threat to life on the planet, is Life on this ppanet!! Chernobyl, in all honesty, is probably the best example. Some random person in Milwaukee or Germany or where ever, can doing research on Nucular Power, get one part of an equation wrong, and then --- BOOM!! No more earth! No more life.
well yeah after that all of our generations will be too dead to complain if they don't do another one.
100 years is enough to remove the contamination and put it in the ground.. or even the sea.. turn it green 🤢
@@carlb1056 Smart logic they have there. Take the contamination from the area and go contaminate somewhere else. It would be smart to just let it decay where it sits.
There must me a lot of rad roaches in there
Hopefully the feral ghouls took care of those!
Everyone gangsta till the fish grow legs
It's actually really cool if you'd like to know more there is a moive on Hulu about it or you can research on UA-cam I've heard there's something about this topic on Netflix but I haven't seen it yet

- Chernobyl, 2019
Kinda crazy to think future civilizations will find the still irradiated Chernobyl and open it up
Chernobyl: Yay! I’m a growing town in the Soviet Union!
Reactor four: well yes but actually no
That growing town was Pripyat, not Chernobyl. Chernobyl was just a neighboring village.
Lame
Lame joke
Sammy Watkins your prob just jealous you don’t have a nearly 100 like comment on UA-cam
davvid true, it’s a joke comment, not a historical meme
Me: 2020 can’t get any worse
May: (sarcophagus and new safe confinement falls apart)
Can you explain to me how an RBMK sarcophagus explodes?!
@landon5583 Idk, but with all the things happening in the world right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened lol

As a once wise soldier said:

Are you daft? stay out of the radioactive areas.
Im pretty sure its supposed to be “as a wise soldier once said” but ig what you said works too lol
Cheers I’m drunk to that bro
Literally no one:

Everyone: ChErNoByL bOi

God, this joke is so lame now
@@SonofTiamat It always was. Doesn't make sense.
You are delusional, get your ass to infirmary
So I guess it's safe to say that the sarcophagus has the apocalypse inside it
Nobody:
Coyote Peterson: Im about to enter the radiation zone in the Chernobyl sarcophagus.
Nah, he's just selling toys now
Coyote: AAaahhhh! AAAHH!!! AAaaahhhhh!
Cameraman: Can you feel your cells melting? Should I be worried?
Coyote : Screaming in pain
Cameraman: dUdE aRe U oKaY?
Damn, future generations are not going to like this...
I doubt current generations are fans either
Hans Günther lol what do you mean
Preston Ak do you think the majority of humanity will be here in a century?
Ant Six Oh, probably because of the people that think global warming is a HOAX, for real though we would survive a century well just destroy earth if we don't take global warming seriously
Preston Ak what about biochemical/nuclear warfare? Exponential growth of our population with finite resources? Waning source of anti-biotics while people are herding cities... etc
I wonder if Dyatlov ever felt guilty for his role in this accident.
HBO produced a sort of companion documentary called “Chernobyl: The Lost Tapes”. It’s well worth watching. Lots of original footage shot by the Soviet government during the cleanup efforts in 1986 and contemporary interviews with survivors of the event.
"Chernobyl series in HBO got me inspired!"
*Laughs in STALKER*

There is actually an unrecovered body of one of the plant workers still entombed under that reactor building. Our children or even grandchildren may hear on the news one day about that guy's bones finally being recovered and given a proper burial. Really a chilling thought.
I’m assuming that you’re referring to Valery Khodemchuk, the man who’s often referred to as being the first person to die from Chernobyl; and his body being recovered depends upon the thought that his body can be recovered, and didn’t get vaporised with the explosion or crumbled in the years following the disaster.
Oh, I didn’t even know he was sick.
Thank you for sharing
We should probably put a warning saying “WARNING DO NOT OPEN DANGEROUS RADIATION INSIDE” or someone in the future is gonna try to open it
Me:**Stops working in order to rest a bit**

Thank you for consistently saying “nuclear” instead of “nucular”, and thank you for including metric measurements next to the imperial ones. You are a legend!
He is clueless, thats what he is. But if the following he has considers spelling nuclear right, as being a scientist, I can see how he gets away with it.
Ed MartinezDJ take your butthurt elsewhere. The smell is too much.
@@Martoto94 What smells is the massive empty space inside your brain.
Ed MartinezDJ xD surely you can do better than that. Guess not.
@@Martoto94 So your point is because this loser has followers he must be good. But someone that knows better than him but is not spending his time doing a youtube channel must not know. This is a bit like learning science on cereal boxes don't you think?
