10:43 and in Chernobyl too, but they didn't bother to do that in Bryanskaya oblast (it's in Belarus, I think). It's a neighboring region that got affected by fallout, so local rural area inhabitants have to grow potatoes to the "full" cycle (where potato skin becomes very thick) and peel it really well. And even then there's a lot more radiation than in "standard" potato. Still edible afaik.
Bryanskaya oblast is in Russia and it's not neighboring region of Chernobyl. Maybe you meant Gomel Oblast? It's neighboriing Chernobyl and is in Belorus
Thank you for this info. As a boomer when I was younger, there was no internet so it was harder to find answers. But the biggest road block was all of society. Friends and family would usually discourage you from finding answers to radiation questions. People were afraid if we talked about it then it might happen. So, nobody talked about it. Again thanks.

Sunflowers are proven to pull radiation from soil. So plant sunflowers in former garden areas then move 10 ft of topsoil from area you need to use now in mean time
you would think that in radiocative areas like chernobyl, there would be nothing left alive due to the radiation, but in chernobyl particulourly wildlife is actually thriving, there are bears, wolves, lynx, deer, moose, beavers, foxes, badgers, wild boar, raccoons, dogs, the rare russian buffalo, and more than 200 species of birds that have formed their own ecosystem within the Chernobyl disaster area.
If you look at the river monster episode based in chernobyl you actually see that the underwater poplation appears to be heavily affected. It is mainly due to the absence of humans that animals are thriving, but they are all several generations later. This would give them time to develop immunity because natural selection would become 'literally anyone without this mutation dies' instead of 'this one is slightly better. give it a few million years'
The thing that most bothers me about the Fallout series however is that it's been over 200 years since the nuclear exchange. And while things might not be perfectly safe, most of the radiation and fallout from the Great War will have long since been removed from the environment. Nuclear scientists believe that strontium-90 is one of the most dangerous isotopes created from a nuclear explosion, and that has a half life of 29 years. By the time of Fallout 4, 7.2 half lives have passed. That means that 99.7% of the strontium has decayed into zirconium. Radiation shouldn't be an issue really at all by that point.
Some isotopes are still really dangerous like plutonium-239 which has a half life of 24,100 years. So no it could be plutonium-239 (unless it is stated in the fallout wiki or the game that it is strontium-90 or another isotope with a short half life) so I might not be strontium-90 which has a half life of 29 years like you said.
Cole Camara Well the big concern with strontium 90 is that it acts chemically just like calcium so it gets deposited in our bones and teeth. And continues to emit radiation for decades. Everyone on earth today has at least some strontium 90 in their bones and teeth
I think it should be clear that Fallout is everything but scientifically accurate. The whole franchise was based on the idea to combine Fantasy RPG elements with a Post-apocalyptic setting. Super mutants are the orcs, ghoules are zombies, Brotherhood of Steel are the knights and so on. The first Fallout game even had dwarfs.

Has there been a IRL equivelant situation? Common sense may indicate it's improbability but what does the science say?

He could extend it to talking about surviving on one single food alone, talk about that guy that ate only mcdonalds for months as an experiment, the girl who only eats chicken nuggets and now gets sick if she eats anything else, and what the effect of only eating one food source has on the body. They could even look into what, if any, single food would be best to survive on if you could only eat one thing. Who knows maybe it will be bacon grease, nothing would surprise me with this show anymore.

Fun fact, a year after Chernobyl, farmers in Wales reported that their newborn sheep were glowing, purely because of the wind-swept fall-out from Chernobyl.
Honestly, if I was to pick one place to live out the Zombie apocalypse, It would be Alaska. Why? Well, for one thing, Alaska only has around 700k people living in it, making it one of the emptiest states in America, so the chances of an extremely fast spread of the virus would be very very low. The terrain in Alaska is also very beneficial when it comes to surviving the Zombie Apocolypse. Frozen water, in the form of glacier ice, covers some 16,000 square miles (41,000 km2) of Alaska's surface, which would hinder Zombies ability to roam free. Alaska also has 39 mountain regions, splitting up the land which also makes it hard for the Zombies to get from one place to another quickly. And the Zombies would have a lot of land to cover! Alaska is the largest American state in terms of landmass, containing over 100,000 sq miles of area, so the chances of having your state swarming in Zombies is a lot smaller than if you tried hiding out in, say, Rhode Island. Another reason I would choose Alaska of all places is the weather. Average summer temperatures range from 40°F to 60°F (4° - 15°C). Winter temperatures in Alaska range from 0°F / -18°C to -30°F / -35°C from November to March. That is insanely cold weather, especially for humans. Our bodies basically shut down at around 21 C, and Zombies probably won't be going around wearing thick woolen overcoats. Whether or not they're dead or infected, the Zombies are still, at some level, human. If they tried attacking people that were living in the cold environment of Alaska, their bodies would essentially stop working for them due to the cold. Frostbite and exposure would quickly take down most if not all of the infected, leaving the humans who all this time have been holed up safe in their bunkers and igloos completely safe from the undead. So, you make the call. Feel free to meet up with me when the apocalypse begins, so we can make the trip in numbers and hopefully wait until all of the Zombies either can't infect enough people, deteriorate due to cold and exposure, or practically shatter their bodies falling off of a mountain or getting crushed by a glacier. And who knows? Maybe we can bring MatPat along so we can better understand our undead enemies! (I guess MatPat'll be headed to Ontario, Canada instead of us, but we'll show him!)
One minor point is if someone who was wearing a coat gets bit it's unlikely the zombie would take off the coat, so some could be wearing thick coats. Though they would definitely die of exposure eventually.
@@rosewhipple9923 Good point, and while some Zombies could be wearing snow gear, let's not forget that there are still weapons lying around that can deal with such instances!
I'd love to see some food theory on food mold! The difference in edible mold, inedible molds, and just how invisible it can be in food. I have a topical allergy to most molds so I'd be curious to see what you come up with for which food molds affect you more just being in the same room as them.
Nah fam the biggest issue is the winter, which is why I clicked on this video. I did learn a lot about the radiation issue for farming which I'm very thankful for but I still think that the winter is gonna be the hardest part since the avg global temperature will drop anywhere between 5 and 30 degrees Celcius, sources vary wildly.
@@WhiffleWaffles yeah, radiation actually tapers off pretty quickly. In order for an atom to emit gamma rays et. al, it has to decay, aka, loose energy. The more radioactive something is, the faster it decays into stable (i.e. non-radioactive) isotopes. Even just a few decades would be enough to leave everything mostly fine, and the fallout games all take place centuries after the fact.
Fun fact: They actually defined the reason for the glow of Nuka-Cola Quantum is Strontium-90. That means that in real life, Nuka-Cola Quantum would literally liquefy your bones. EDIT: Corrected my typo, I originally said Strontium-19.

Exactly what I was thinking. Like you could plant Sunflowers first and let them grow before planting crops. There must be enough canned foods left so that you won't starve
Yes and no. The amount of time it would take and the amount of times having to replant them would make it pointless. Plus as the plants die you have to immediately remove them from the ground to keep it from leaking back in.. We're talking 50 years plus and thats only 100 miles or more from the blast area... Any closer would take thousands of years...

MatPat: Is eating food that's been hit by radiation safe? Microwave: *starts to sweat* Edit: guys ik that microwaves emit non-ionizing radiation, I'm just joking. Also, the next person who hates on Tristan Dreemurr is gonna catch these hands. Don't be mean to the memes.
Honestly if the topsoil is any concern to you, I’d recommend going into a basement of a nearby home (assuming you live in a place that allows basements) with a pickaxe and break that concrete flooring and doing any semblance of farming down there, and if light is a concern of yours. No worries there either, there are lights that will work to help cultivate plans within the confines of your home
It kinda makes sense that ionising radiation is safe to “cook” food but dangerous to humans since fire is dangerous to humans but safe to cook food with.
Except that fire mostly emits infrared and visible light, which are both non-ionising. Personally, I'd say that plants, growing in sunlight high in UV radiation, which is ionising, are a better example. Just wanted to make clear that fire is totally safe from a radiation standpoint :) Unless some scholar is about to school me. I tried to look it up but I can only find that fire emits thermal radiation, which is warmth.
Tsukote Amie You’re definitely right, but I think the point of the original comment was to bring up a good comparison (that isn’t one to one as you proved) for people that still didn’t really get it. (Like me)
@@greyham181 Yes, I know that that was the point, but I was afraid that if it was meant for people who didn't get it yet it might cause misconceptions about the radiation coming off of fire.
I was in Germany when Chernobyl had its meltdown, so I got exposed to a lot of fallout (as did we all over there) and didn't even get superpowers! I feel cheated.
what about rain? doesn't rainwater let fallout particles seep deeper into the soil? ^^ apologies if thats a dumb question, it just bugged me and i was too lazy to google :P
They emit non ionising radiation so it wouldn't be a fair comparison. You could talk about us eating plants which have gotten hit by ionising radiation emitted by the sun.
microwave is non ionizing along with infrared and radio waves, it emits frequencies lower than light and you dont see light hurting you so... you get the idea.
@@erinstacyamoin6442 If i recall correctly it isn't dangerous because radiation, but rather dangerous because the frequencies that microwaves emit have a tendency to boil water, and because humans have quite a bit of water, _they don't pair well_ , and also microwaves are tuned to have a higher like energy that does the danger part, otherwise at low energies it would be safe I could be wrong but thats what i think at least
A microwave is literally just A LOT more powerful WIFI (2.4GHz electromagnetic radiation), it isn't dangerous unless you put 1,5KW of it in a 10dm^3 box
@Latatod ah, well, in that case, thanks for the correction. So then it would mean environmental hazard is more likely rather than the microwave oven cooking you?

I have an idea, what if you started a mini-farm in a ziplock bag? We did this for a school project once, you put a damp paper towel in a ziplock, put a seed in there with it, steel it, tape it to a window(for sunlight), and it'll start to grow, I think it would work.
I really love MatPat’s videos on all his channels, but I *really* wish they had captions. Not only are the auto-generated ones absolutely horrid, but sometimes they’re not available! It just makes it a lot harder :((((
that's because youtube removed community captions (fans can make captions for the video) so only the uploader (Team Theorists) can add their captions and they are already too busy.
@@TheGameChallenger I know it’s just, as someone hard of hearing, even with headphones on and the volume up it can be really hard to figure out what they’re saying. The visuals usually help it’s just a lot harder.
That would take knowing how much gas you have for the back-up generators for the freezers. you could put fresh food in there for a year but then after that it comes down to expiration of canned items. 1-2 years, 4-5 if you don't mind some poisoning. If you chose a superstore type location you could use the garden equipment stores of mulch to start composting to produced safe soil to start producing your own food from seeds in the store.
Honestly this is a loaded question because due to panicking in a death situation superstores would be the first targets to hoarding so they’d do doubt be sucked dry from its food and necessities in a few days tops. What the comment above stated though if the superstore has gardening equipment you’d be able to get good crops from the amount of fertilizer and maybe a green house if you’re lucky
That would depend on how large the store is and what percent of items in that store can be eaten. Even then, some foods may last longer than others/have more servings. Also, does the store have anything you can cook with? Raw meat doesn’t taste great. Ideally, you would want to eat things that spoil the fastest first. If I had to take a guess based off of my local Fred Mayer’s, I would say... Maybe 5 or 6 years if all the coolants and things stayed on inside the store, and maybe like a year or 2 if everything stopped working in there.
@@mariomeza3514 No? That would be absolutely ludicrous if Putin dropped nukes anywhere. USA would immediately fire back, and then it would be the end of the world. No winners, everyone loses. And no one wants that, not even Putin
Most radioactive debris has a half life in minutes hours or days. Its the basis for the rule of 7. The primary concern is the bio-volatile fission product daughters radioiodine and radiocesium that are the most likely byproducts of fission of Uranium 235, they are what you were talking about at the roughly 8 min 30 second mark These isotopes have half lifes long enough that it takes roughly 30-40 years to fully decay. In the Pripyat area for example the only place there is any RS and RC left is in some mycellium, they no longer find it in the fish and animals. So have non perishable stores, use aquaponics indoor, store bags of pre fertilized soil, and make sure you can make it 40 years and it stops being a problem.
It's a miracle the Sole Survivor and like, 90% of the inhabitants of Vault 111 weren't blinded considering they looked straight at the bombs that exploded in Boston
use the plants, grow them, remove the plants to a storage/hole you dug and you've removed some radiation from a location. ( only if you want to remove very small amounts of radiation after scraping)
You could also use sunflowers since they accumulate the radiation and store it in their bodies so you can pull them out when they die and remove even more radiation from the soil
I feel like an important part of growing crops was overlooked - water, or more specifically rain. During the time we are waiting for the fallout dust to settle rain will have time to fall on the ground and "help" that radioactive dust to seep in deeper into the ground, and depending on how big the explosion was and how close you are it might take years for you to be able to go outside, and by that time there will be no saving that farm land (not to mention that rain in general will be radioactive and will constantly fall on the top of the soil over and over again which will not help the crops we are trying to grow) The only solution that I could think of was using per-packaged soil from shops or factories and stuff, soil that has not been outside and was irradiated, and then growing food indoors where the rain cant fall on it (also using seeds from packages and not from wild fruits and vegetables).
Water is not gonna make the dust seep in much deeper than it would naturally get. 15 inches of the top is a lot of soil. Also rain will actually make the dust settle faster and get it out of the air which means after a few rainfalls the rain wont be radioactive anymore simply cause the dust has settled.
@@ruukinen unless it's fallout 4 with the glowing sea anyway. If that were the case, why not have an inside farm? We already do it and it adds the possibility of making a multi tiered farm.
Partially right. That's why most will recommend removing the first 18-24 inches of topsoil. However the bigger issue comes from uncovered water wells or any way for the fallout to enter the water table. Once that happens, you're done.

Honestly, if I was to pick one place to live out the Zombie apocalypse, It would be Alaska. Why? Well, for one thing, Alaska only has around 700k people living in it, making it one of the emptiest states in America, so the chances of an extremely fast spread of the virus would be very very low. The terrain in Alaska is also very beneficial when it comes to surviving the Zombie Apocolypse. Frozen water, in the form of glacier ice, covers some 16,000 square miles (41,000 km2) of Alaska's surface, which would hinder Zombies ability to roam free. Alaska also has 39 mountain regions, splitting up the land which also makes it hard for the Zombies to get from one place to another quickly. And the Zombies would have a lot of land to cover! Alaska is the largest American state in terms of landmass, containing over 100,000 sq miles of area, so the chances of having your state swarming in Zombies is a lot smaller than if you tried hiding out in, say, Rhode Island.
Another reason I would choose Alaska of all places is the weather. Average summer temperatures range from 40°F to 60°F (4° - 15°C). Winter temperatures in Alaska range from 0°F / -18°C to -30°F / -35°C from November to March. That is insanely cold weather, especially for humans. Our bodies basically shut down at around 21 C, and Zombies probably won't be going around wearing thick woolen overcoats. Whether or not they're dead or infected, the Zombies are still, at some level, human. If they tried attacking people that were living in the cold environment of Alaska, their bodies would essentially stop working for them due to the cold. Frostbite and exposure would quickly take down most if not all of the infected, leaving the humans who all this time have been holed up safe in their bunkers and igloos completely safe from the undead.
So, you make the call. Feel free to meet up with me when the apocalypse begins, so we can make the trip in numbers and hopefully wait until all of the Zombies either can't infect enough people, deteriorate due to cold and exposure, or practically shatter their bodies falling off of a mountain or getting crushed by a glacier. And who knows? Maybe we can bring MatPat along so we can better understand our undead enemies!
(I guess MatPat'll be headed to Ontario, Canada instead of us, but we'll show him!)
Incredible! This is like totally amazing! He should really do a video on it!
One minor point is if someone who was wearing a coat gets bit it's unlikely the zombie would take off the coat, so some could be wearing thick coats. Though they would definitely die of exposure eventually.

It kinda makes sense that ionising radiation is safe to “cook” food but dangerous to humans since fire is dangerous to humans but safe to cook food with.
Except that fire mostly emits infrared and visible light, which are both non-ionising. Personally, I'd say that plants, growing in sunlight high in UV radiation, which is ionising, are a better example. Just wanted to make clear that fire is totally safe from a radiation standpoint :)
Unless some scholar is about to school me. I tried to look it up but I can only find that fire emits thermal radiation, which is warmth.

microwave is non ionizing along with infrared and radio waves, it emits frequencies lower than light and you dont see light hurting you so... you get the idea.
@@erinstacyamoin6442
If i recall correctly it isn't dangerous because radiation, but rather dangerous because the frequencies that microwaves emit have a tendency to boil water, and because humans have quite a bit of water, _they don't pair well_ , and also microwaves are tuned to have a higher like energy that does the danger part, otherwise at low energies it would be safe
I could be wrong but thats what i think at least
A microwave is literally just A LOT more powerful WIFI (2.4GHz electromagnetic radiation), it isn't dangerous unless you put 1,5KW of it in a 10dm^3 box

That would take knowing how much gas you have for the back-up generators for the freezers. you could put fresh food in there for a year but then after that it comes down to expiration of canned items. 1-2 years, 4-5 if you don't mind some poisoning. If you chose a superstore type location you could use the garden equipment stores of mulch to start composting to produced safe soil to start producing your own food from seeds in the store.
Honestly this is a loaded question because due to panicking in a death situation superstores would be the first targets to hoarding so they’d do doubt be sucked dry from its food and necessities in a few days tops. What the comment above stated though if the superstore has gardening equipment you’d be able to get good crops from the amount of fertilizer and maybe a green house if you’re lucky
That would depend on how large the store is and what percent of items in that store can be eaten. Even then, some foods may last longer than others/have more servings. Also, does the store have anything you can cook with? Raw meat doesn’t taste great.
Ideally, you would want to eat things that spoil the fastest first.
If I had to take a guess based off of my local Fred Mayer’s, I would say... Maybe 5 or 6 years if all the coolants and things stayed on inside the store, and maybe like a year or 2 if everything stopped working in there.

Most radioactive debris has a half life in minutes hours or days. Its the basis for the rule of 7. The primary concern is the bio-volatile fission product daughters radioiodine and radiocesium that are the most likely byproducts of fission of Uranium 235, they are what you were talking about at the roughly 8 min 30 second mark These isotopes have half lifes long enough that it takes roughly 30-40 years to fully decay. In the Pripyat area for example the only place there is any RS and RC left is in some mycellium, they no longer find it in the fish and animals.
So have non perishable stores, use aquaponics indoor, store bags of pre fertilized soil, and make sure you can make it 40 years and it stops being a problem.

use the plants, grow them, remove the plants to a storage/hole you dug and you've removed some radiation from a location. ( only if you want to remove very small amounts of radiation after scraping)
You could also use sunflowers since they accumulate the radiation and store it in their bodies so you can pull them out when they die and remove even more radiation from the soil
I feel like an important part of growing crops was overlooked - water, or more specifically rain. During the time we are waiting for the fallout dust to settle rain will have time to fall on the ground and "help" that radioactive dust to seep in deeper into the ground, and depending on how big the explosion was and how close you are it might take years for you to be able to go outside, and by that time there will be no saving that farm land (not to mention that rain in general will be radioactive and will constantly fall on the top of the soil over and over again which will not help the crops we are trying to grow) The only solution that I could think of was using per-packaged soil from shops or factories and stuff, soil that has not been outside and was irradiated, and then growing food indoors where the rain cant fall on it (also using seeds from packages and not from wild fruits and vegetables).
Water is not gonna make the dust seep in much deeper than it would naturally get. 15 inches of the top is a lot of soil. Also rain will actually make the dust settle faster and get it out of the air which means after a few rainfalls the rain wont be radioactive anymore simply cause the dust has settled.
