@Joey A -- You're not getting it, are you? It's the fact that you should feel and appreciate what you see for what it is. Not to force you into it. If something is worth appreciating, it's worth appreciating without post-processing effects. Your answer tells me you can't appreciate something by yourself but instead you need to be spoon-fed with superficiality. Great job. Hope you're proud of yourself.
@Anakin12 I don't think it's that, more so that different news firms go for different styles, and this is one. Other places have journalism organizations that do work just like this one, so lack of serious attitude is kind of out of the theory..
As I said, "Other places have journalism organizations that do work just like this one," I guess how some news organizations work, even ones all across the globe, represent the culture, nature, aptitude and intelligence of a continent? If you go about judging continents this way, then everyone is, "uncultured, childish, ignorant and rather idiotic." Unless you meant the United States of America if you are not trying to bottle up the whole continent which many people end up indirectly doing because of ignorance.
I was one of the people at Fukushima at the time I was 6 my mom wasn’t home neither my dad they got killed they worked there it was only me and my older brother who was 13 when we got out of the house all I saw was people running from there homes and then the earthquake happened we hideded under tables we were about 6 miles away from the power plant and then that happed the thing that killed my parents sided and other family members and also 1000 or more people died after 2 days I got ptsd and I was so scared of going outside that I didn’t go anywhere or eat for 6 days after I wasn’t afraid of coming outside because I missed my brother so 6 years later me and my brother made a tradition every year we pray and celebrate what our parents have done to us and me and my brother made a vow we never leave each other even if it involves death.

If they had built it near the city and a earthquake happened it would've been way worse
GE actually warned them that the emergency generators weren't placed on a good spot and they ignored it. But why didn't they make a higher tsunami wall.
Hey, Watch these clips from the real Japanese people. ua-cam.com/video/Hwn1PU6GiPQ/v-deo.html This shows the real voice of farmers in Fukushima. ua-cam.com/video/NHtbi1Q4aZ8/v-deo.html This shows the real voice of Japanese journalists. ua-cam.com/video/z4RKKjhO5rA/v-deo.html This is testimony of a local mayor in the Futaba town.

It's amazing how poorly full scale media productions hold up against user content. There's so much more flash and breathless drama than actual content.
I think if there's any nation, that's capable to handle the containment in the best manner possible, it's absolutely Japanese. They're perfectionists, precise about everything. Of course there has been a leak into the sea within the first hours, days, before they got it contained. But you can tell from the video how they are tidious about everything, even checking every batch of fish, by uniformed officer.
The stupidity was too small seawall and backup generators below tsunami flood levels. Designers stupidity. Also storing spent rods above reactors. Stuuuupid.
1:47 ....inside the damaged reactor - there are no damaged reactors - they are DESTROYED. Nice try... 3:25 ....thousands of bags........actually there are tens of millions (could be as high as 31 million). Nice try.... 4:04 .....looking for contamination with a Geiger counter. Many isotopes can't be detected and each Geiger counter is only "sniffing" one isotope. In addition they do not detect internal radiation, so if you breath it in or swallow it, the thing is useless 7:20 ....1500 fuel rods. No, it is actually 1500 assemblies containing on average around 70 fuel rods each. Nice try.... In addition, building 4 got completely destroyed and dismantled - how can one be in such a building?
The camera guy did an amazing job, he gave hints of a first person perspective with the mask over the camera and showing him taking his covers on his shoes off.
I live on vancouver island a local scallop farm has lost 95% of its scallops, due to a spike in ph. in our local waters. this is going to effect much much more than just an increased level of radiation there are going to be major changes in our ocean that are going to happen to fast for marine life to adapt.
Double thumbs up to the beautiful Cecilia Vega and team. She and team should be awarded an Emmy for this mission. Keep up your hard work. Great regards.
Back when I was a member of the John Birch Society they had a special meeting with a man that promoted Nuclear Power and he said its no problem. Even promoted the idea of swiming in the holding pond.
What I don't understand is if these nuclear power plants are so incredibly dangerous, not to mention the waste it leaves behind even from normal operating plants, why are we not focusing on alternative power sources?
because the nuclear activists need money. If you look into Nikola Telsa, he wanted to create free energy for everyone, but the money hungry activists didn't like that. Nikola Telsa is the rightful ingenious of power that Thomas Edison should be put in jail for taking all of his fame. Good people never win.
Can somebody tell me what the suits are actually for? Afaik they won't help with radiation but they'll help with protection against radioactive particles getting on the skin and in the lungs, right?
They shut down any farms affected long ago and in the area surrounding the disaster zone the streets and trees have been cleaned and contaminated topsoil has been collected for safe storage. Any news on the notion that the Olympics, its foreign visitors, and athletes are at risk of health risks is simply poor journalism and fuel for the continuous societal fear-mongering. Many US media companies have financial ties to coal, oil and gas giants.
Get your facts straight....there is only 1 reactor that has ever exploded and that is Chernobyl reactor 4... NONE of the Fukushima cores exploded. The first 3 had a meltdown and the reactor 4 wasnt even in operational when the earthquake and tsunami happened, all of its nuclear fuel/uranium rods had been moved into spent fuel pool. The reason why there was explosion in reactor 4 building (and other buildings as well) was caused by hydrogen that was leaking from reactor 3 building into reactor 4 building...but again its important to understand that none of these hydrogen explosions damaged the cores themselves.
They seem to be suffering from similar problems that the Chernobyl liquidation squads ran into with regards to water contamination and lack of transparency. They had pieces of the core in the surrounding water. They drained the area and removed the material at the bottom. The pieces in the ocean are obviously problematic. Japan is an advanced society but it doesn’t want to panic people. The lesson that’s missing is that an informed public is a safer people. The backlash from information suppression is bad for everyone.
Right now maybe Fukushima, since it’s recent. But decontamination progress are fast and population was protected and handled quickly. There were faults in the plant for sure and right now the sea is still getting polluted. Chernobyl, on the other hand, because of lack of technology and knowledge (mostly), a big part of the population were irradiated without even knowing because the government wouldn’t act quickly enough. Hundreds of brave men had to go on top of the roof, directly above the explosion, to clean it up, and thus with barely any equipment, resulting in lots of deaths and ills. Finally, the incident of Chernobyl was cause by human negligence while Fukushima was mostly caused by a nature catastrophe. So I guess you can have an idea which is worse, but both are still terrible tragedies that could’ve been avoided..
nymfe1 We can’t know for sure what’s going on with the decontamination process, but already Fukushima’s habitants can start to come back in certain areas. But the big difference for me is that Chernobyl’s tragedy was caused by human neglect during the daily testing process while Fukushima, even though there were definitely flaws in the construction, was nature caused. And then you can also compare the difference in fatalities which are enormous. Yeah, Chernobyl is definitely older, but what happened was still really terrible and still leave an impact even though it’s been decades
@michael konstantinovich bordwell no iodine was givin out and nobody was warned @ Chernobyl. It had The most deaths, and people still keep working in the other reactors. All the protocols today makes that the worst disaster
Why is everyone complaining? It was a good documental. I enjoy it and I admired her and the team for being so brave, I wouldn’t visit that place even if they pay me a huge amount of $
The radiation detector is going off because the Gamma Radiation emitted from some of the radioactive particles is penetrating the protective plastic. Gamma rays can pass through almost anything as the object is not too thick, and also they spread out as you go further away from the gamma source.
They cannot afford it....for the love of cross, did you see how it was non-educational. They cant even afford to educate themselves before they send this journalist with no clue what she is talking about.
Lesson 2 on nuclear reactors, don't put diesel generators used in the event of power failure and cold shutdown water circulation pump power at emergency times at ground level right next to the sea, up on the roof or big hill much better, the plant would still be ok if it were not for these generators litterally flooding when the Tsunami struck.
Prevents alpha and beta. Not gamma. Also prevents radioactive particles from landing directly on you and contaminating you. Funny to see you laugh at her while you were wrong yourself.
It does. In this vid at 14:11 you can see the skin on the stomach that was covered by a thick leather belt is in much better condition than the skin covered by some fabric. But even some fabric is much better than having your skin directly exposed to the radioactive aerosols. ua-cam.com/video/b4iAbfk2ogg/v-deo.html

Those cows seems cool.. they don't give a f.. to radiation...
Bet the camera man doesn't have a protective suit.
They cannot afford it....for the love of cross, did you see how it was non-educational. They cant even afford to educate themselves before they send this journalist with no clue what she is talking about.
Is there an Elephants foot there as well?
Lesson 2 on nuclear reactors, don't put diesel generators used in the event of power failure and cold shutdown water circulation pump power at emergency times at ground level right next to the sea, up on the roof or big hill much better, the plant would still be ok if it were not for these generators litterally flooding when the Tsunami struck.
THATS ALOT OF DAMAGE
Hilarious they think that clothing prevents the radiation 🤣 nopeeee
actually it does, Beta rays
Prevents alpha and beta. Not gamma. Also prevents radioactive particles from landing directly on you and contaminating you.
Funny to see you laugh at her while you were wrong yourself.
It does. In this vid at 14:11 you can see the skin on the stomach that was covered by a thick leather belt is in much better condition than the skin covered by some fabric. But even some fabric is much better than having your skin directly exposed to the radioactive aerosols.
