In this brand new series I go back to Fukushima (Japan) with Frederik to visit the nuclear exclusion zone and show you how this zone looks today and we explore the last abandoned buildings.
In this episode we drive into the mountains to see how the exclusion zone looks there today.
We bump into radioactive monkeys and visit a pottery, onsen hotels and a mountain village in the former red zone.

The letter on the shelf at 5:20 is thanking the business owner for his contributions to the neighborhood and its businesses. Dated November 1985.

O wow! Thanks for the translation

[@tallat8888]

It is so surreal to think about how this horrible accident affects so many people on a permanent basis. Thank you for sharing this.

[@DrentseRedneckOfficieel]

Imagine walking around a corner in that hotel and see monkeys sitting around a table eating some diner from plates they found.

[@Pure-Luck447]

I'd like to put objects in glass boxes and display them, like that Honda Accord, not touching one bit of decay or dust just as it was found.

[@anthonyplanas3606]

Bob I laughed like crazy when you scared Frederik.

Thank you again for sharing! It was great to see that mountain town that we visited previously with the cars removed from the streets and looking almost ready for people to return.

Radioactive monkeys? Why Cdawg would love this!

[@maxine-charliemaxcaulfield]

This is the 1st explore of yours I've watched and it was brilliant!! I follow Dan, Exploring with Fighters and that's how I heard about you. This was amazing, don't you get worried about the radiation? How do they decontaminate the area? I'm from Northern Ireland. Can't wait to watch more of your explores ☘️😉

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks Maxine, you should check out the coolest adventures playlist. We did a lot of unique locations and also made an episode about the jdm and sports cars in this exclusion zone

[@MrProvinspoul]

Ohh the fine Diatone stereo amplifier preamplifier tape and tuner, i would love to have that set.

[@juandenz2008]

Interesting video, but sad to see all those homes and businesses destroyed ! Macaque monkeys can be somtimes be aggressive, hard to know what effect that radiation could have on their behaviour. Like you, I'd be very wary of any psychotic radioactive monkeys !

A very interesting explore again, those sweet monkeys are a bit dangerous for your health if they scratch or bite, cant wait too see the next one.

Best ones I still have to upload😄Rolf. Thanks again 🙏

Greetings from Guatemala 🇬🇹

[@Kilgore0Trout]

That was really interesting, and sad. More than likely, those villages will never be inhabited again. Japan's population is shrinking rapidly, and many rural areas have already been nearly depopulated as younger generations have moved into urban areas.

[@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk]

The villages should have never been evacuated. No one died from radiation and no one would have ever even be injured by radiation if they had all immediately returned to their homes.

[@JJJustinSecondary]

​@@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk If you think thats a good idea, why dont you move there?

[@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk]

@@JJJustinSecondary Because I have a life right where I am at. Pay all my expenses and a annual salary and I will move there for you and make videos showing me eating the food, drinking the water, etc.

[@LouiesLog]

Do you think adding mushrooms and tree's would help with the decontamination? or would that just be too slow? You're very lucky to see the radio active mankeys

[@TattooedTraveler]

You had me at "radioactive monkeys"

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

The only ones in the world☝️😮 Thanks Devin🤗

[@andreaszebenyi]

Interesting to see these hotels, they have a special atmosphere even just watching your video. A bit spooky👻 Maybe that is why at 14:22 I thought at first that there was someone kneeling in the glass box on the left side. For example, the woman, Samara, from the movie The Ring😃 Thanks for sharing with us Bob!🤘

[@nebojsapoljakovic8072]

Sad to see that beautiful Honda/Acura Legend go to rot. My favorite car of all time.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Sad indeed. Did you see the other episode about all the cars in the “ exclusion zone”?

[@-r-495]

0.x mSv isn‘t too concerning at all. in a pottery workshop there can be far more radioactive spots, it just depends on the glaze and how the kiln is operated.

[@naviangel4620]

Молодцы как всегда ....Боб а как радиация спала немного или всё ещё высокий фон?

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

In the mountain area it’s still high, because most urban areas got “decontaminated”. Normal radiation levels are around 0,15 microsievert and we had around 5-6 microsievert in the mountains. (Could be even higher in some places)

1Sv is the maximum allowed radiation exposure for NASA astronauts over their career. 4-5Sv could kill a human with a 50% risk within 30 days (LD50/30), if the dose is received over a very short duration.

The really sad part is scientists have determined there should never have been an exclusion zone in Fukushima in the first place. Everyone should have been allowed to immediately return to their homes.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Non indossano nessuna protezione contro le radiazioni quelle mascherine mi fanno ridere non servono.e poi toccano tutto a mani nude ma stiate scherzando le radiazioni non pensate che scompaiano in qualche anno ci vogliono migliaia di anni per scomparire le radiazioni

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Most of the areas are cleaned bro. We have all equipment like suits and gasmasks but we don’t use it when it’s not needed. (And don’t want to dramatize it either)

[@Ganiscol]

All that is really needed is to avoid ingesting contaminated dust particles when you're just passing through - a face mask will help a little bit with that, basically better than nothing. I'd personally opt for a minimum of FFP2, though. Same as I would do if I was grinding paint off an object without knowing what kind of paint it is. 🤷🏻‍♂️
