inside Chernobyl's sarcophagus - the turbine hall & ventilation stack (chimney)

Ғылым және технология

so, where's Chernobyl's old iconic chimney now, after they've dismantled it?
well, we shall find it... in the mighty hall of turbogenerators.
this trip was a joint venture with Carl Willis, be sure to check out his youtube channel for more Chernobyl & radiation-related videos: / thallium208

    I'd wear a filtration mask going into ANY ex-Soviet power plant. The reason being, you just have no idea what you're be walking into. About 25 years ago I was shown around a (gas-fired thermal) power plant in St Petersburg to find absolutely everything coated in a snow of asbestos. Their method of removing the heavy asbestos cladding around all the turbines and steam pipes was to drag it off in chunks and pile it into wooden carts. The place was a death trap without being a place of nuclear disaster. The situation has not improved much. Asbestos in Russia is simply ignored as a problem. The scale of lung cancer this causes and will continue to cause may be judged from the situation in the UK, where even now 2,500 people die of mesothelioma every year (decades after legislation largely stopped its use). Russian health and safety = oxymoron.

There are a few exceptions at chernobyl but those areas are off limits to the public and in many cases very tightly controlled even for workers. The average yearly dose to a pack a day smoker is more than what is legally allowed for a radiation worker in the US for occupational dose.

That's called fundamental attribution error - that how he talks in a segment of a 5 minute video is his entire outlook on life. Like how dare some random guy study a field and try to be smart after growing up in some shitty backwater place. Oh and since he's in a video and is near something super dangerous and is acting kinda casual, there's some hostile attribution bias going on - which is when people think someone's being an asshole when they're being chill because of some external shit. Then you get this one guy who's all No true Scottsman saying what reactor operators or technicians can and can't do based on his exacting specifications what a cope Hoes mad they can't set foot in Chernobyl.

    The dust could contain radioactive particles that once inhaled, would emit radiation continuously inside the body. The type of radiation emitted by the particles would be one major factor in how damaging that would be to the lungs. Gamma radiation escapes the body and very little is absorbed, but all alpha and beta emissions would be contained and absorbed by the body. Much worse in the long term. Obviously inhaling radioactive particles is bad and all steps should be taken to avoid unnecessary exposure. Radiation exposure is cumulative across your entire lifespan.
