Exploring an Abandoned Neighborhood Frozen in Time (HIGH RADIATION)

I was so confused when you said this. Keep up the good work man- love the content!!

[@majorola3788]

Where are all those people??? If squirrels, raccoons and plants are thriving, it isn’t that toxic, same thing in Russia, only some people refused to leave and they’re still alive and well. Nuclear radiation isn’t what they have tried to scare people about. Something nefarious has occurred here. That’s why the guards are on patrol, don’t want the real story to get out. Think about it, if it’s safe for guards to patrol and guard shacks to be set up… Land grab in Japan???

[@silent.hills.explorations]

This place is absolutely unreal! Stuff like this is a once in a lifetime experience

[@bobbynoluck23]

Probably Namiya - 160,000 were evacuated. Funny thing is the area was green washed and the residents can return (they just don't want to due to fear of radiation) security is there to prevent access by non residents to prevent looting.

[@plektosgaming]

It's been safe for years - so, many people did get their few items that they cared about. But given Japan's outrageous fees for waste disposal (and restoring cars) , it's easier to use the excuse of "radiation" that society and the government gave them to just abandon it without any repercussions. And entire area of Akiya as it was easier to start over given the government's assistance programs. The average family of four received 90 million yen in compensation. It is slowly being converted back to farmland and usable lots, but literally a block at a time - they have to test and dispose of the topsoil a square meter at a time and it's extremely cumbersome work. 20 years from now, all that will be left is a small hot zone around the old reactor - probably build a Chernobyl type shell around it as well just to be sure.

What a creepy town. I feel sorry for the people who had to leave their homes so quickly, thanks for the tour.

[@malcolmmorin]

Those houses, especially the interiors, are in perfect condition for being abandoned 13 years. Almost as if they left yesterday. Says a lot about Japanese ingenuity compared to other countries, where structures fall apart after just a couple years without maintenance.

[@blacksilverchair3315]

The houses still look so clean and dust free. Wish i could explore these too.

[@sneakyskunk1]

Given that this is in Japan, the lack of looting and vandalism is not surprising. I've watched multiple urban exploration videos in that country and this seems to be a consistent factor across all of them. For some reason, this just does not seem to be a thing done overmuch in Japan.

[@plektosgaming]

The court system in Japan has a nearly 100% conviction rate - you are considered guilty until proven innocent, basically. If you are arrested, Japan's prison system is one of the worst on the planet. Because for anything less than murder, there is no jury. They basically extract a confession out of you or a plea of some sort ( as a non-conviction is seen as a mark on their records ) - then the judge decides what the penalty is. People comply with every single law because they legitimately fear the police's power to wreck their lives. There have been incidents of very minor things like traffic tickets getting visas revoked, even.

[@amandadepersis2226]

[@David_1977]

There is a town in the US that is in a similar situation as that one in Japan. It is St. George Utah. This town is downwind of miltary above ground testing of nuclear weapons during the 1950's. The only difference is it was never evacuated and it is still inhabited today. If St. George Utah is safe for people to live in shouldn't this town as well?

[@ForbiddTV]

Scientists have found Fukushima should have never had exclusion zones either. No one was injured by Fukushima radiation.

[@benjamtaylor6179]

It's pretty crazy after 13 years there are no real damge to these homes inside. No massive cobwebs with eerie spiders hanging around. Really impressive that they took all their photos, not a single one left behind., or that I saw

[@corvus5801]

Please make sure to check the clothes you brought back, especially the shoes. Get a meter and make sure you didn't pick up any dust. Staying there for a bit is almost harmless because exposure is limited, but you don't want to extend that exposure by wearing any irradiated clothes you may have brought back

[@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk]

There wasn't enough radiation there to do that even if they lived there the entire 13 years.

The really sad part is scientists have determined there should have never been any exclusion zones created at all. There just wasn't enough radiation to harm anyone.

[@thormod1248]

Try to convince the average person that its perfectly fine and they can go home. Now you understand why the zone exists.

[@ForbiddTV]

@@thormod1248 The zone exists because they instilled fear into their minds about radiation for the 50 years prior. The government over reacted.

just because fukushima released around 10x less radiation than chernobyl, doesn’t mean that there should not have been an exclusion zone… make sure you always fact check before posting misinformation online

[@TolerantPain]

A standard camera with no radiation protection can only receive a small amount of radiation before the image quality is so poor that no meaningful image can be seen. In a nuclear environment, such a camera would fail after short usage.

[@TolerantPain]

That’s probably why your camera was so fuzzy.

[@-KingOfKhaos]

My dude is walking around in a TShirt and shorts without any radiological biohazard suit… and the concern is the camera image quality? 😅😅😅😅😅
