Chernobyl: Hour by Hour | Full Film

“50,000 people used to live here; now it’s a ghost town.”

[@TiborRoussou]

I remember when this happened; I was 17. Only 8.7 half lives to go before the cesium 137 is negligible; same for strontium 90. Hell of a mess Chernobyl is.

[@lsudx479]

How long is the half life?

[@TiborRoussou]

@@lsudx479 30 years for cesium 137; just under 30 for strontium 90.

[@TiborRoussou]

@@lsudx479 Cesium 137 has a half life of 30 years; Strontium 90 has a half life of 28.8 years.

I was in college in '86. Preparing to graduate and realizing after I was almost killed in a car crash, my fiancée was killed in a different crash by a drunk driver that $hit can get real at any time. Realizing this while 20 miles from my house was Rancho Seco NPP. Glad it closed.

[@TiborRoussou]

@@phantomf4747 It was closed by public vote in June of 89; two years after Chernobyl.

[@SherryXLynn-zl7zz]

Its a good way to explain to people what can happen. Dont let "feelings" get in the way of education.

[@steveprocter6241]

An excellent narrative provided by Dr. Blacker - informative, engaging and poetic

[@leoa4c]

It is definitely engaging but it is also incorrect. You can read my main comment for clarification.

[@jbar19]

There are much better documentaries on chernobyl than this one.

[@non-fictionaltoughguy1208]

Go watch those then?

[@jbar19]

@@non-fictionaltoughguy1208 Hey, I give the guy credit. He made a nice video. But there are whole channels devoted to Chernobyl and a few of them are run by Russian people with access to resources no one else has. So, props to the guy who made the video, but.....

[@non-fictionaltoughguy1208]

@@jbar19 I feel that, what are some of the best you’d say? I like Chernobyl Guy he goes into depth on every incident

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

they just had to make it even more eerie and grey and spooky and grim and what I call "drama horror" then it already was ☠

[@cerealkiller193]

This is an unnecessarily slow burn.

[@OCuinn1981]

3 commercial breaks in the first 11 minutes?

[@novascotiawoods_goproryan]

i hate that with a fashion

It's why I pay for premium. The ads drive me bonkers.

ublock origin folks!

[@garethjohnstone9282]

There's loads of incorrect information in this video.

[@Hackdaplanet-lp1ex]

Good video ,but I don't think I see everything happening hour by hour,I only saw 50 minutes the most on Chernobyl,,,

[@lihnmahr6505]

Facts!

[@lihnmahr6505]

I’m afraid to watch the minute by minute!😂

[@streamer_services]

Guys.......adds every 5 damn mins??.....cmon man....thats just ridiculous and what happened to the sound at the end?......got to be more professional if you goin put these docs on your channel

[@CarlosIowa]

I understand, now. Thank You. THIS was the real beginning of the end of CCCP.

[@lihnmahr6505]

No moment by moment of what happened , I still appreciate the backstory but definitely not hour by hour.

[@MontanaMedic13]

Sounds like not much has changed when it comes to ti Russian government versus tbe old Soviet style way of doing things.

[@chrisvig123]

In many ways it’s worse with Putin…him and his oligarchy are just stealing Russia blind

[@piotrmalik4908]

But several accidents in other than nuckear branches of industry have led to bigger numbers of victims. For instance Bhopal in India.

[@marveloussoftware4914]

I hope they get a good paycheck being forced to wear those silly hats.

[@Brock_Landers]

The reaction of the Russian government to the Chernobyl incident reminds me ALOT of the sinking of the Kursk on August 12th, 2000. Always concerned with their country's image, never wanting to admit that they need help, never wanting to look weak, and facilitating the deaths of their OWN countrymen in an attempt to save face. I have absolutely nothing against the Russians (because most of you have been unwittingly brainwashed by your leaders), but your government is insane to refuse international assistance! Needing and accepting help doesn't make you weak. If your country has had an accident and another country offers you their assistance to either help clean up a nuclear accident, or to help rescue your countrymen in an unknown accident, then accept it and recover your men! Nobody will look down on you for needing help, it's when you attempt to cover things up and refusing help that tends to make others look down on you. This also reminds me of when Genndiy Ossopovitch was ordered to shoot down Korean Airlines Flight 007 over the Kamchatka Peninsula because the USSR believed that it was a US spy plane. The Russians covered it up, denied responsibility, but when Boris Yeltsin took office he offered the recovered cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder from KAL007 to the Americans. It's just sad that the Russian government is so proud that it won't ever accept international aid under ANY circumstances.

[@deathbycheese850]

Being patronising doesn't help your case.

[@marveloussoftware4914]

Thats russia for ya. You are right not to dislike the russians. Some are cool and dont hate us. Some, like you said are brainwashed. Some say they hate us but really dont care about us, they say that and the government pays them no mind. Thats how you stay safe in russia.

[@alincirstescu4732]

What went wrong??EVERYTHING !!!!

[@marcfield1234]

It wasn't a mistake. It was down right criminal.

[@MyklEnigma]

I feel like I have seen this before..like a year or 2 ago...I was 21 in 86'

[@leoa4c]

16:25 Associating Stalinistic methods and tendencies do Gorbachev's USSR is a mistake. The Chernobyl disaster happened in 1986, not 1952. So, a lot of what this gentleman is saying is pure, absolute and complete nonsense. For instance, many of the efforts to slowdown the spread of radiation at the destroyed reactor were done, purely and simply, out of empathy, not out of any Patriotic War era heroism. 1945 to 1986 is a massive jump to be making such fundamental comparisons on the workings of the Soviet people and the Soviet administration alike.

[@brianw612]

They let the Jeannie out of the bottle...

[@BloodSoilandSoul]

Genie just btw ✌️

[@mightymode]

Yeah, um, the footage and the narrative are not at all connected

[@agcrisbp]

2:42 - what was that?

[@lsudx479]

He cleared his throat before beginning the narration and they forgot to edit it out. 🤣

[@laceneil4570]

In Soviet Russia, nuclear power owns you.

[@barrysims9906]

Soviet aggression toward Ukrane? could not actually drop one on them. But....did they just build a big bomb in there country and then let it rip?

[@FenderBender5150]

I don't think so. The Soviet Union had a culture of secrecy and cover ups. There ware problems with every one of those reactors @ chernobyl. But they ware just covered up, and so the scientists working on that particular reactor thought that everything was just all honkey dorey, and even if there was an problem you can just hit the AZ-5 button and the rods get re-inserted bringing everything under control.

[@deathbycheese850]

Are you talking about Tsar Bomba? Because that was years and years ago.

[@deathbycheese850]

​@@FenderBender5150I'm glad someone actually knows what they are talking about.

[@richardclark2854]
