@johngaltline9933 It's a risk to someone. Nuclear fuel doesn't just grow legs and walk off. Someone had to have handled it, thus exposed themselves and others to radiation. Maybe in the future, it'll get a rating when someone finds the stuff in the attic of their parents' house.
Me seeing this video: ah it'll probably be a deep dive on like two or three accidental exposures while the sarcophagus was being built, nothing crazy. Me 8 and a half minutes in: Christ alive is this place cursed?
It seems to me that the Soviets had so much hubris when it came to there nuclear energy programs. They were so hellbent on being seen as the leader in it that they were willing to ignore so many safety protocols. It's amazing that they did not cause more disasters like unit 4. They looked at human beings as expendable for the cause of the state.
I've heard enough, we're now calling this plant Clownoble. I dont make the rules. Has the IAEA opened a detachment office directly on the premises yet? 'Cause they need one.
Dana Durnford does his almost daily nite Melt stream on Fukushima. The first 10 minutes usually sets the mood. Far for being cursed, everywhere outside is Fuked in some way by way of this ongoing ecocide
How in the world did the oversight board not shut it down earlier? I work for an electric coop so i understand supply and demand for power but dang. If we had this many issues regardless of severity i think our oversight board would just move their office right into our building 🤣🤣 do other nuclear plants have this many issues???
Well, its sister plant at Leningrad has quite a long list of accidents and incidents in its Wikipedia page. And this power plant is still up and running btw 😂 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leningrad_Nuclear_Power_Plant
@tanelimp the beauty of that advanced soviet union/Russia nuclear technology and best human minds and standards. If these happened in USA I can not even imagine the outrage🤣🤣
I felt kinda bad how we operated our plant regarding safety standards, but we were a first world expensive car engine plant. Hearing how they had so little regard for safety with such critical equipment (like a shitton of critical uranium for example) sounds insane to me. We had a kinda lax approach to strict safety rules, but this is a whole other order of magnitude (but the core issue is ironically similar - I was able to identify so mamy similar trains of thought of why to ignore safety standards in xyz situation)
When I served in HECU marines we had little known outbreak that we were sent to stop due to resonance cascade incident by some scientist. This experience helped me later in my solo career.
Yes, a new video! And I swear that [insert deity of choice] did not have just one angel watching over this particular station, but an entire fleet of them. Holy cow, it really never could catch a break, it seems. And I can already see it happen with the missing fuel. Wife; "What's that? Did you really have to bring your work home with you?!?" Husband; *Looks guility at the floor
Watching the video what popped in my head halfway through is I wonder how many accidents there was with all the other RBMK reactors how many were built and what was their actual safety rating did one run with absolutely no problems
Potential idea for a future video - what would the consequences of Chernobyl be if there was no cleanup? TV shows like HBO claim that all of Europe was somehow at risk but this is very hard to believe. They operated the other units after the disaster so they had to clean up but what if they didn't? How much of a hazard would Chernobyl be outside of a few km if it was never cleaned up
11:28 hey i just wanted to ask that refueling machine remodel in Chernobyl Unit 3 is from that one remodel game right? (and it is going to get added to the main game right?)
I was living in West Germany when this happened. I remember the PX system stopped buying local milks and had to bring it all in from the US. Everybody figured we had fallout on us, but what can you do?
Let´s hope that the missing fuel rods at 9:30 didn't get into terrorist´s hands ... the 1990s (especially 1993-1998) were an ultra corrupt time in former Soviet republics
Fuel rods are harmless. Not even close to enriched enough for a bomb, at best someone like iran has to run its enrichment a little shorter. Absolutely useless without a reactor
@@jackradzelovage6961 NaBrO, fatal history is not a joke. It's discussion needs rigour, otherwise we'll keep getting stuck in the hamsterwheel where one misapprehended history is used to incite another crime or cause another tragic circumstance.
Worker: "Anyone seen a pair of missing fuel elements?"
Me: *starts chewing faster*
Everything else there has been nicked or repurposed so I'm surprised there is anything in any cupboard when they go looking for it.

"Oh chernobyl guy made a new video! What's that? Modern accidents? Can't be too lo-"
*checks video lengh*
"Oh"
It feels like Plainly Difficult Omnibus Day
Chernobyl: We lost some of our fuel from storage and have no idea where it could be.
IAEA: That's fine.
IAEA is suspiciously similar to IKEA.
@Flumphinator Swedish meatballs with every rated nuclear accident.
I mean, you cant expose people to radiological material that's not there, can you? Missing bits of a fuel assembly pose no risk to plant employees.

And here is why I say Chernobyl is cursed
Just mismanaged, as usual with anything nuclear...
@@ruxxxo there are over 400 reactors in operation...
many of them have not had accidents...

@@ruxxxoNuclear is statistically one of the safest forms of power generation - your generalisation is grossly inaccurate.
@@deezelfairy no it is not safe, just watch some more documentaries about uranium mining, nuclear waste and nuclear accidents.
Dude remembered he had a channel!
Chernobyl was indeed a pain in the ass
Damn, guess the stalker series nailed it with the anomalies, whole place is cursed
Super good topic and i will update the chernobyl accident in wikipedia
Did they blame Dyatlov for all these accidents as well? (lol)
Of course not!
He was on the toilet....
Every single time.
Welcome back king
Interesting video, your videos always make me rethink facts about Chernobyl
Very cool video; I did not know of any of these incidents, thank you!
its unbelievable that the power station was restarted again after the unit 4 disaster for over 10 years
No not really, they needed the power. Only reason it got shut down was because the EU payed for it.
IAEA could've picked a better name, guess the acronym guy had a day off 😂 "Aye ey ee ay" is such a tongue twister.
*cat spins*
Every video is getting better than the other! 🔥
Yay that Chernobyl guy posted a new video (but TH-cam betrayed me by recommending it 3 days after it was posted)
The eletrical wiring at chernobyl must've been a mess most of these accidents were caused by short circuit or wires melting
and its not like a military force would start fighting nearby
Awesome video, right up there with your top five.

@@wysiwyg2006 My ass is heavy
You should do one for Chernobyl PRIOR to 1986. There has to have been more than just the 82 and 84 one.
Difficult to imagine a world without the openness and transparency of the IAEA. 😇
finally! a video from the legend himself!

love the vids
Definitely a jinxed location. I went here in 2008 but wasn't aware about most of these events

There basically was no cleanup outside a radius of a few kilometers. The cleanup just let them restart the other reactors.
So that's why people say: " Love the nineties"!
tbf a lot of these happened immediately after the restart of reactors 1 and 2
11:22 for those who came for the peek
11:28 hey i just wanted to ask that refueling machine remodel in Chernobyl Unit 3 is from that one remodel game right? (and it is going to get added to the main game right?)
oh yeah and that other stuff (like that guy in the window) will be added with that but i just noticed him now when i wanted to write this comment
I was living in West Germany when this happened. I remember the PX system stopped buying local milks and had to bring it all in from the US. Everybody figured we had fallout on us, but what can you do?
no wonder reactor 4 exploded, they had this many accidents.
i ate the fuel
how tf do u loose fuel rods

Unluckiest Nuclear Power Plant in the world. Chernobyl is cursed
1:00 a level 1 is ten times worse then a 0
Was the last image Olkiluoto 1 and 2 or am I seeing things??
5:15 But I've been told fire can't make steel beams weaken 🤔 /s
we nows da troof
Steel retains 100% strength right up to the point it becomes liquid - I thought this was common knowledge 🤔
We not supposed to say that out loud 😂
Chernobyl is built on ancient burial ground.
Awesome!
20:20 prob bc the ukranian state didn't have much money as the lithuanian SSR or Russian SFSR, that resulted in lower quality models and equipement.
Hope you dont mention my last toilet breaks
I hope someday I can be upgraded to INES 1... sigh...
naw bro that power plant is damned
who is the real scapegoat of chernobyl? Anatoly Aleksandrov? or Nikolai Dollezhal? heck, the whole union?
Sources bro?
Official INES reports as compiled by LAKA.
heck at this point do we need sources for this? basically make something up and theres a 100% chance either chernobyl or quagmire has done it

yessss
So many problems
Tell us in the next video about Chernobyl after the Russian army
October 1991 the worst
I've been watching all of these videos. Maybe over a year now. Why do they wear the funny white hats what is the significance
what are they doing there they should close that power plant down before these clowns cause another disastrous accident
The last reactor was shut down in 2000.
