@Tellacost Radiation protection suits aren't a thing, the closest you can get are X-Ray lead vests, but they do nothing to shield from gamma emitters. What they wear in these videos are contamination suits, which stop the person underneath getting contaminated. The dose you recieve would be the same then or now, so no safer.
the radiation levels there are drastically lower than they used to be, only showing on average 27 R/h which is only about 0.23 gray/h, and that's pushing it, since they are putting the dosimeter really close to the graphite blocks and control rods. (thats the only radiation reading i could find) Lethal dose for humans is around 4.4 gray/h or 500 R/h (roentgens per hour), so no, it isnt really as dangerous there anymore, you do the math idk
As far as I know, yes, both Alexander Kupnyi and Sergey Koshelev are both still alive. Kupnyi has a youtube channel that he regularly posts to and sometimes livestreams. Fantastic channel.
@@Chernobyl-Reuploads thanks for the answer, so the statement that the time you are exposed to radiation is the best method of protection is actually true.
@_IstorX_ Yes, they limited their time inside the reactor to 40 minutes at absolute max, and after the dosimeters stay time alarm went off, they would leave. So yes, keeping a good eye on time and trying to keep your total accumulated dose as low as possible is the best method. Very courageous indeed!
@MetroCop2077 Yes, of course it is still dangerous, but when they went inside the reactor it was much less dangerous compared to when the event just happened.
1:54 No. 2 module, what was that for? 7:40 Stalactites 7:42 Was the edge of that floor corium or another material? 10:18 The Lower Heap, the one at ground floor. Extremely radioactive object and should be regarded similarly to the Elephant's Foot.
1:33 just casually filming the reactor lid 😊😊😊
1:52 bro is touching it😊😊
Still have to see this magic molten corium once in a while:)
2:42 YOU DIDNT SEE GRAPHITE🤬😡
I doubt that camera man lasted very long after getting that close to the melted raidiated rods
Sergey Koshelev, the camera man, and Alexander Kupnyi, also in the video, are both still alive and well.
Our radioactive protection suits are way better now. Though I still wouldn't spend lots of time in there .

2:45 they are not graphite because they are not
Search up “chernobyl graphite blocks” and you’ll see it is graphite.

Its 50% of death
The letal dose is 10gy
its still uninhabitable as if you stayed for a few hours you would surely get cancer or a lethal dose
@@Lotsof_FPS to get a lethal dose you at minimum have to stay there for 20+ hours
Are the guys still alive? Damn. I've never seen someone more courageous than them...

@@Chernobyl-Reuploads are graphite bricks and rods still dangerous? Is it even sage to go under reactor ? Where the Water was?
@MetroCop2077 Yes, of course it is still dangerous, but when they went inside the reactor it was much less dangerous compared to when the event just happened.
1:54 No. 2 module, what was that for?
7:40 Stalactites

10:18 The Lower Heap, the one at ground floor. Extremely radioactive object and should be regarded similarly to the Elephant's Foot.
What were the units on the dosimeter?
I think Roentgen per hour.
@@Nameisnotimportant Yes R/h most of the time. Most areas inside of the reactor hall varied between a few mR/h to hundreds of R/h
What do they say ?
You had needed to add subtitles
they are just cursing and telling each other stuff, regarding how to move through the area. Nothing informational for the viewer, basically
Anybody got to think how somebody took that photo to the elephant foot?
What scale did the dosimeter show? I can't read the radiation level correctly?
21.8 Roentgens per hour
Are you delusional? Tell me how an RBMK reactor core explodes.
IT WENT BOOM DYATLOV
This Series Fucked everything up about the History of chernobyl
wish i knew wtf they were saying!
4:00 the chair wtf
Nobody knows. Many people recognized it.
