Why can you live in Hiroshima but not in Chernobyl?

Having grown up in Hiroshima, it’s a weird video to watch. Imagine someone telling you that your home was thought uninhabitable, but it’s just a city…

[@iamjayprakash]

Take. Care and god bless you 💝 i have read so much about it from childhood

[@lefantomer]

@@iamjayprakash Some years ago I found a "chamber of commerce" brochure in an ephemera lot at an auction showing the recovery of Hiroshima by 1948!

[@nikitaw1982]

Hpw does this relate to areas around fukushima. I have to pay attention. What's radiation at ground zero Hiroshima vs around fukushima..

[@EpicMathTime]

cherynobl = DoT hiroshima = instant damage got it

[@Higgsinophysics]

lol the whole video explained in 5 words for gamers

[@victorfabro107]

Epic Math Time Burst damage* get your gamer vocabulary right 🙃

[@victorfabro107]

@Marc Archibald Lol you dummy I was referring to the "instant damage". Ofc I know what DoT is :) I played wow too Edit: spelling

[@victorfabro107]

Marc Archibald Not at all, I just pointed out your remark which was pretty stupid 🙂🙂

[@cloudygor8948]

Hiroshima = AOE Cherynbol = Buff DD

[@rock3tcatU233]

An additional reason as to why Little Boy's fallout was less dangerous than Chernobyl is that only 2% of the U-235 actually fissioned.

[@Higgsinophysics]

Nice! I did not think of that, but the number checks out. You are right.

[@METALSCAVENGER78]

Asw opposed to 3.5 ± 0.5% of radioactive fuel escaping to the environment in Chernobyl accident

[@jonathanwilliams1065]

Wouldn’t that mean more got dispersed as fallout?

[@krashd]

@@jonathanwilliams1065 That would be my belief as well, 2% fission would mean 98% dirty bomb, that would be an enormous amount of fallout.

[@doyouevengame9869]

I have been eagerly waiting for another video, and it was well worth the wait!

[@Higgsinophysics]

Glad to hear that mate - I hope you also got the notification on the video collaboration with Zap Physics

[@Warhawk76]

Thanks. I was always curious about the differences between the two

[@soviet_union1936]

Hiroshima wasn't a disaster it was a attack

[@bradearthman8332]

Like Pearl Harbor was an attack.

[@Marc816]

When the Little Boy exploded at Hiroshima, it did that a bit more than a 1/4 mile up. It did release a huge amount of radioactivity, but in only a small fraction of a second. The fireball did not touch the ground. If it had, a vast amount of radioactive debris would have been created. But at Chernobyl, when the reactor split open, it released a gigantic amount of radioactive material directly onto & into the ground. And it did that over several days. That is why the amount of radiation let go at Hiroshima is nothing compared to what got out at Chernobyl.

[@MeargleSchmeargle]

So essentially, Nuclear Warheads wouldn't make an area completely uninhabitable for centuries due to radiation because the amount of radioactive materials in the bomb are relatively low, and the bomb is designed with the intent of burning through all of that radioactive material instantly to unleash all of the explosive energy at once, so the radiation doesn't last nearly as long (in fact, about 80% of the radioactive products in a nuclear warhead detonation would have already decayed within the 1st hour). What makes nuclear power plant disasters much worse from a long-term radiation exposure perspective is that you need a lot more fuel for it over a significantly longer period of time that isn't burned through instantly for one massive energy release like warheads. There's huge stores of radioactive material that don't get immediately used up, which is what actually allows the unhealthy radiation levels to linger for so long. Aside from the obvious hazard that is flattening an entire city, this actually makes nuclear warheads quite a bit less scary for me than I originally thought they were. My biggest fear when it came to nukes initially was the idea that the radiation would linger for multiple lifetimes and render the place where the detonation happened uninhabitable for hundreds of years unless you wanted to develop every form of cancer imaginable. Now that I know that the vast majority of the radiation from the blast would decay within hours, the city may be destroyed, but there's still the prospect of rebuilding and making the area habitable again within a significantly shorter time frame than I assumed would be the case initially.

[@rohithkumarsp]

I was just wondering about that, why does your video only have 817 views? Edit wtf was that ending lol

[@metroplexgrimlock7089]

Of course you can't live in chernobyl, it's a nuclear reactor. However, prior to 1986 , and after 1970, you could have lived in Pryp'yat'( or Prypyat).

[@wemakecookie]

“Wind carries the radioactive fallout away” what happens to that radioactive fallout that’s carried away? Or, how is the radioactive fallout removed?

[@Higgsinophysics]

It just get's randomly spread out by the wind.. diluted

[@BobBarker-ky6fi]

It travels in the wind and comes in your window buddy

[@GeneRauXxX]

Perfect, i was just looking for this video. Thanks a ton.

[@edilbertorivera3467]

That huge mushroom cloud... So scary...

[@Tensho_C]

I hope you'd show us the animations you made longer, it was kind of quick and hard to catch. Nothing is wrong with your face, I just felt like if the entire video was animation, it would suit the theme and atmosphere of your video better. Cutting between these are kind of distracting

[@Higgsinophysics]

YasashiFPV thanks for the feedback, I’ll keep that in mind for the next video. Maybe work on the flow or gave less “face-time”

[@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk]

You didn't mention Fukushima. No radiation deaths. Lot of deaths at Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

[@Higgsinophysics]

I thought about adding the radiation death in Hiroshima. You are right

[@mikeball1397]

Great video!!

[@toadamine]

So nuclear war isn't really all that bad as long as you don't get blown up by the actual bomb... everywhere that's ever been bombed built back and is doing just fine... just dont live near a nuclear power plant! Haha

[@workaholic4587]

Bomb that blew up deathstar was pretty big.

[@ilyaselekci]

As i was watching video this idea just came out of my mind. After hearing differences between theese two incidents,instead of making a covarage to Chernobyl,isn't it possible to put that rest material in a chain reaction like an atomic bomb to let it vaporised in air ? Ps : i'm not a engineer,scientist or etc. just a person who is sitting near you at the park who even does not care about wtf is going on around.

[@krashd]

No, bombs require highly enriched uranium, reactors don't, so it would be impossible to turn the remains of reactor #4 into a bomb without enriching all of the damaged debris - which would be dangerous, costly and time consuming, and probably not even possible with current technology (robots, processes, etc).

[@borntoclimb7116]

[@Higgsinophysics]

I find these differences fun to explore. Could you explain these difference in radiation levels before watching?

[@MoparAdventure]

Yes I can, but comparing chernobyl to Hiroshima is like comparing an apple seed to an apple

[@EpicMathTime]

About fkn time dude shit

[@PinoSilvestreOriginal]

but THERE IS people and animals living in CHERNOBYL RADIATION ZONE since always... lets say... in fact you can watch a video dedicated to the CHERNOBYL DOGS that were born and lived there all their lives. AND OF COURSE THE WELL KNOWN CASE OF THE LADY (WHO MUST BE ABOUT 90 YEARS OLD NOW) WHO NEVER LEFT THE PLACE. there is many videos on KZbin about that two things a mentioned here...
