Exploring Chernobyl: A Stalker's Unseen Journey Inside The Exclusion Zone

[@gw1652]

Not sure why this hasn’t more views. You have a pleasant voice and are a fascinating storyteller.

[@caseydrahota4871]

I did the same stalker trip as you did in Sep 2019. It was an amazing journey, when I left the exclusion zone I was already planning to go back. Who would have ever thought that the Russian invasion would screw that up. Great video!

Would it be dangerous to go after the war? Like mines and stuff

[@stickyman3786]

@@GeneralRaam-0 placing mines is a war crime

[@MrEd8846]

​@@stickyman3786 not really. its a part of war. you can place mines you just need to mark the area and record them for later removal. that being said. there are uncleared areas of the zone and they have found tripwires and mines in and around the abandoned city. so yes its probably going to be dangerous for reasons other than radiation for a long time. and wouldnt recommend going there now because every once in a while they get reports of some military personnel trying to sneak into Ukraine from the exclusion zone.

So good to have you back posting again!

[@UweRaff]

Eines der besten Stalker Videos meiner Meinung nach auf KZbin 👌 Warum hat das nur so wenig likes? Vielen Dank das du uns auf so eine spannende Reise mitgenommen hast 👍

[@kathylockwood377]

really interesting to watch this film thanks for sharing

[@FabienWhite]

What a journey! I'm sure Pripyat served in many minds as a point of fascination (Call of Duty), but it was epic to see some of the scenes outside of the normal touristy areas. Would love to go there some day as well. Fantastic quality and production as always, Nick. Even if it wasn't the Isle of Wight ;)

[@CallOfTheDarkVideo]

Brilliant video! Glad to see you back

[@bethechange2024]

With the volume on low, I could well feel the tension and unsettling unease which I remembering feeling while watching the film by Tarkovsky I saw in my youth. Very well and brilliantly done!

[@Supersonic90444]

The legend has woken, and made THIS AMAZING VIDEO!!

[@stephhedgehogg]

Well this was definitely worth the 5 year wait! I remember reading Ben's 28DL report back in 2019 and hoping you'd make a video of your adventure. It's so interesting seeing all the forgotten details that most people will never get to see, the hut full of documents looked particularly interesting. I'm curious, did you use the geiger counter to get an idea if the water you were drinking had elevated levels of radiation?

[@jasonskerrett3826]

Im curious were there any lasting effects from the radiation?

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Great question, thank you! So far, I've had no issues, but it's true that any potential impacts might not be clear for years. Despite careful water filtration, the risk from even minimal particle ingestion exists. Before entering I considered these risks thoroughly, fully aware of the dangers, taking all possible precautions, so hopefully nothing to come 🤞

[@justsomeguy9700]

Except for really hot spots most of the zone is safely visitable but not livable

[@BhartiyaRailJunction]

Nice Presentation - Love from India 😊

[@moonie1980]

amazing video, haunting place...very similar to the island 😁

[@pashasoro]

This isn’t the isle of wight… 😂

[@ianandrewhay]

It looks like Wroxall.

[@MrWightHD]

​@@ianandrewhayDefinitely somewhere south of Newport.

[@theshamanarchist5441]

Just as run down.

[@ThePleb]

Could be Ventnor if anymore landslips cut it off

[@darklordmattman7704]

Im from south Newport and the water looks the same for sure @@MrWightHD

[@darklordmattman7704]

Spotlessly amazing nick such an amazing video thankyou for making it

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Cheers mate, glad you liked it, was expecting a “is this the catacombs video” from you 😂

[@darklordmattman7704]

Wait what is this not the catacombs video? i thought Chernobyl was under Paris. @@AbandonedIsleofWight

[@nk3241]

Good to see you back

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Cheers buddy!

[@slackybeatz]

very good video and narration!

[@Philljag]

Shiey went there in the winter walking through the same water he didn’t complain as much as you 😂

[@Waldo777]

This was the comment I came here for!

[@spacebear916]

I very much appreciated this docu!

[@pauldavidmurray6531]

Brilliant video many thanks 🙏 my friend Nicola from the Isle of Wight recommended you to me.

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!

[@oliverm2077]

Hey! Are you planning on making any more content from the island? Love the vids! ​@@AbandonedIsleofWight

[@camlegs2423]

You have come along way from the days of exploring IoW. I found your documentary far more exciting than any BBC propaganda documentary and not dumb down for the idiots who watch word government controlled entertainment. Thank you, take care and carry on!

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Thank you. I really do appreciate the kind comments and I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@torbjrnvrebekk3178]

Great video! I always wanted to go to the zone, it seems like such an amazing place to explore and photograph. If the war in Ukraine ever ends I will go there for sure (in which case it will have even more history to tell).

[@GrievyMassacre]

Bloody brilliant Nick

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Thanks so much for watching and really glad you enjoyed it mate!

[@rolandcarlile9568]

Great to watch,would love to visit.

[@Doybruh2]

No wonder you hadn’t uploaded for a while!!!

[@Gingeman0209]

Are you going to do more videos on the island or are you doing more worldwide now?

[@davidstepeck2644]

Excellent video guys, however I feel bad for your 25 mile/40km hike. Why not get dropped off at the train station the walk in. Or just take the tour bus to Pripyat? You can’t explore too much at night anyway as your flashlights will give you away.

[@silverbackbacon5]

absolutely brilliant

[@detroitdieselseries5071]

Would it be possible to enter the Chernobyl zone as a stalker? Maybe not in 2024

[@YUNGSLEEVES]

im wondering same thing

[@stickyman3786]

it is but i imagine it would be difficult

[@bena3963]

Welcome back!!

[@Srki99Production]

YOO such a good video! Greetings from Serbia!

[@tonyglazier8161]

I thought this would have been made by my friend Eugene!

[@peterchapman3740]

is this owen jones ?

[@YUNGSLEEVES]

Such an amazing video! i hope to god russia stops and ukraine can go back to normal some day i wont die happy if i havent been here on a stalker tour!❤

[@jackryanmiller]

Any more IOW vids coming soon? Please?? 😂

[@AbandonedIsleofWight]

Maybe... I do have some that I've kept back and I've been out visiting sites, but the issue that stopped me uploading IOW bits was everything was getting trashed. Ryde Theatre was a sad example of this; I'd waited until the building had been secured before putting anything up and within a matter of weeks it had sadly been smashed to bits. Would this have happened anyway without my video? Maybe, but I hate the thought that I'd given someone the idea to go ahead and disrespect the location.

[@ozmond2600]

Explore the ocean Hotel in sandown, it's already been smashed to bits.

[@peterchapman3740]

OMG bald been here with a bag of shopping

[@astro7366]

[@jordijordi6846]

So, you trespassed?

[@johndeer6674]

Das blöde gelatsche die ganze Zeit und die Untertitel versauen das ganze Video. Und dann noch nicht mal in deutsch

[@spannaspinna]

I thought most Germans had a pretty good handle on the English language ?

[@Countrystock]

You tell a great story........ 🐂💩
