- Today we are exploring the hundreds of abandoned JDM cars located in the fukushima disaster zone.
with me I was joined with @2swag.productions
I would also like to shout out @ExploringtheUnbeatenPath whom inspired me as a child to one day check out the cars located here. his footage is included in my video. check out his channel as he makes some of the best content I've ever seen!
"look at that cool volvo guys," completely disreguards the only Jdm car throughout the entire video lmao.
Tbh i don't like jdm I like American muscle. I just know a lot of people do like jdm hence why I made this video
Technically it's jdm spec
its all JDM in this video, i dont think any of these cars got imported back in the day
@@bramv7611jdm means Japanese domestic market so that means car like Nissans, Toyota, Subaru, Mitsubishi, etc.. Ik there were multiple Volkswagens which are NOT jdm they are German.
@ domestic market means made for that market. Every car delivered new for the japanese market is JDM.
He doesn’t know a damn thing about jdm cars😂
True
Yea I think the worst one was the Lexus LS as a Camry still a cool video tho
@@porsche928s4 right
@@porsche928s4 in the us its a LS400 in Japan its the Toyota Celsior.
Toyota Camry 💀
bro getting radiation poisoning and he just laughs it off XD
Because there is no radiation danger.
Yes there is@@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk
you dumb=
The little red car that you uncovered is a Nissan March AK11 for the Japanese market or a Nissan Micra K11 for the European market. Sad to see it sat there as I am an enthusiast for them. Poor little thing
6:19 "I forgot my geiger counter to save weight..."
Bro Im literally dying right now
And so is he
@@Hiiliandsavu I dont believe he could die from radiation. Its just funny how short the fleeting moment of carrying weight is compared to the eternity that is radiation
@@Maybe1Someday I don't know that much about radiation
@@Maybe1Someday considering he was kicking up radio active dust with no mask on I’d think again.
@@drizzydragon Do you wear a dust mask everyday? All objects and all dust that has ever existed on the planet has always been radioactive.
They're not radioactive, they just have auras like in Initial D.
Underrated comment
Dang that S600 v12 got me wanting to risk it all😅
That rx-4 at 3:32 broke my fucking heart. I hope there aren't to many more rotary powered cars going to waste there smfh.
I remember reading a speedhunters article about the abandoned cars here. If theyre not too radioactive, its a shame that its so difficult to re register any of these again. There was a r32 vspec ii, 64 impala, multiple hakosuka skylines, and tons of other dream cars.
bro called a prado land cruiser a 4runner😭🙏
5:26 Honda something 😭
That's a 5th Gen Civic Hatchback
YES CIVIC EG6
17:26 nice 2000s Lexus ls430 and a ford excursion for some reason
19:28 mazda 6
20:36 volkswagen scirocco
i too was confused about the excursion 😂😂
you can see the scirocco early at 2:48
14:26 Toyota ractis
14:41 toyota noah
16:18 Toyota voxy (“sporty” noah)
12:53 Toyota Land Cruiser prado
13:09 Nissan elgrand
13:25 Nissan x-trail
13:56 Toyota caldina
14:00 100 series Toyota Land Cruiser
The Ford excursion is so big it definitely was not practical in Japan
You guys honestly do crazy first hand work. Hope your channel blows up like it deserves. Hard to find content like yours.
Much appreciated!
u pointed at a lot of very normal cars calling them sports cars and that was a good chuckle 🤣
A lot of red cars red must equal sports car
@@Taco1567playzmcpesounds like something an insurance company would say 😂
Cars amd Motorcycles are Awesome! And so are you! 👊 Thank you for sharing the story.
Thanks for watching!

a chaser ? yeah whatever that is WDYMMMMMM
He doesn’t seem to be a car guy so a GX80/ X80 Chaser maybe doesn’t appeal or he doesn’t realise the rarity lol
For real. "There's a supra, does anyone know what that is?"
@@gawpsthe fact its a 2,5 aswell thats a 1JZ if im not mistaken
I worried u guys were going to get caught but greatful and great footage! keep it up... look fwd to the next one.
crazy how your trying to showcase "radioactive jdm cars," but yet the only true jdm car that was worth mentioning you didn't even acknowledge it. Theres a jzx90 right infront of the volvo at 15:01 and you barely even turned the camera towards it. I dont understand how you got the title for this video when all you could identify was mini vans.
watch exploring the unbeaten paths video, there’s more cars shown and he knows what cars he is talking about
I mean he doesn't sound like he knows much about cars sooo
Most of these are most likely japanese domestic market wich makes them JDM
That’s the Jzx90? I thought it was the Nissan S14 Sylvia
@infantbruhh7154
JZX90で間違いありません
グレードはグランデ2.5かと思われます
blud called the Land Cruiser a 4runner 😭
"oh yea its not too bad"
almost 1k CPM
4:01 bro really exposed me 😭 Anyways fire video bro, this is sick 🔥
Thanks bro
Seeing all the radioactive dust and knowing no one else has been there since worries me of your health. You may have kicked up a lot of radioactive dust and breathed it in without masks or even having a PRD. Inhaling radioactive particles is a death sentence. Please get seen.
and spreading everywhere they go when they leave sorry just a fact
So you can see that the dust is radioactive?
@@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk if they’re actually at the Fukushima radiation zone then yes I’m concerned very concerned. You ever watched Kyle Hills Half-Life series. This shit is no joke.
@@drizzydragon And Kyle doesn't fear monger it like you are. Scientists have clearly stated no exclusion zones should have ever been created in Fukushima.
@@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk just cause he doesn’t fear it doesn’t mean he shouldn’t respect it. And his Geiger counter shows why it should still be a quarantine zone. Plus his counter goes at its highest when next to the radioactive particles….
9:00 the JDM car you uncovered was a 1998 nissan micra 😭 nice try though
Actually it’s Nissan March cause that’s what they were called in Japan
An absolute weapon 😅
@@Koloczit’s still a Nissan micra 😂
"The red sports car"
Oh damn, Via Google:
Low doses:
Normal background radiation exposure is considered safe and falls under a few millisieverts per year.
Moderate doses:
A dose around 100 mSv could increase the risk of cancer, but is not immediately life-threatening.
High doses:
A dose exceeding 500 mSv can cause acute radiation sickness with symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and potential death depending on the severity of exposure.
i LOVE the sounds of the crickets, birds, etc in the background, reminds me of Neon Genesis
Bro called an ls400 a camry....
Great video!!!
Those cars though 😳
😎👍🏻👍🏻
6:44 those are some Celsior wheels, I need those for my LS400 lol. 5:40 is a Toyota Celsior JDM Lexus LS400 I had a 91 Toyota Celsior imported from Japan to California. 17:28 is another Celsior also a Lexus LS430 in the US.
3rd Gen Celsior/Lexus LS430
Toyota Avalon in the states if it’s still branded under Toyota
@@infantbruhh7154no thats not a Lexus thats just a Toyota, and in Japan it was a Toyota Pronard.
@@LSnium I never said it was a Lexus .
@@infantbruhh7154Its not an Avalon either.
Lmao 2swags smelly radiation suit at the end 😭🙏
Imagine how many cars got secretly resold into the used car market in japan. Probably not many of the $10k vans or hatches, but i could see the more valuable cars being sold. Nobody thinks "let me check the radioactivity" when buying a car.
That's American thinking.
Doubt it
If I was looking at buying a JDM vehicle,I would probably invest in a Geiger counter to be on the safe side.
It happend. A lot of radioactive cars were sold to Russia and china. It happend just after the disaster. You can find some articles about it
Japan is a country filled with clean freaks. So I doubt any nuke cars made there way to any japanese auction/sold anywhere else.
hopefully they open the zone soon enough but keep the ultra radioactive places closed, would love to see some of those cars on the road again
I’ve been watching you since bohemian, and only got one or two notifications staying you’ve uploaded.
Strange
Fun game to play while watching. Take a drink every time he says "overgrown".
24:14 PRETTY SURE that machine is surrounded by about 5 feet of concrete and 5 in of steel, it also wasn't totally the fault of workers and such.. it was the tsunami that cut power, so water couldn't be pumped to cool the reactors and they got wayyy too hot
And he says "they exploded".. obviously not.
@ what do you even mean... they got way too hot and thats why they exploded... idfk what ur talking about
I love cars. But dont know about em unless their in my life
He never claimed to be a car guy
reason why some places haven't been demolished is because the demolition company needs permission from the property owner, they either said no, or they didn't get a response back yet
So they say
The cars are just chilling
I'm good friend with Bob from Exploring the unbeaten path and i saw that video too.
Sad to see a Subaru Forester XT lying just like that in the bushes... 😒😒 I'm a 2 Subaru owner, an Outback(exactly as the one is at 14:45 min) and Impreza.
Another good job from you.
That red car at 8:45 is a Nissan Micra.
Thanks! I'd like to collab with him sometime
@@StringerMedia兄弟06:08那辆GALANT mitsubishⅰ AMG 一代经典好车你应该把它拖回去修理一下作收藏之用😊
I've been waiting for you guys to focus on em
mitsuboshi or however you say it.... cmon bro.
2:28 the Hondas sitting on some rays versus campionato ss7, same wheels offered for the 2002 IS300 L-Tuned package 👍
Damn I wonder what they would do if you guys got caught in there ? Some awesome footage of some amazing cars !
The Fire Truck has English Writing on the door... Interesting.. how high can your counter go up before it becomes unsafe ?? great vid guys, your Mission was desperaley needed...
I wonder if at what point would these cars be usable again? They can't just stay radioactive forever, and it would be a shame to let them rot or scrap them entirely.
Look at Chernobyl.. everything is still radioactive there that was way before. This
Probably after the half life of the radioactive substances wear off but even then, i still wouldn’t want to drive a radioactive vehicle lol
The half life of this is likely 100-400 years, so basically, they are scrap or will rot into the ground, it is unfortunate but it’s the reality of it
All of you are full of it. There's absolutely no danger from using these cars from a radiological standpoint.
@@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunkbla bla bla, you’re probably too scraed to touch a microwave. Grow up.
Sucks to see that old Datsun Skyline rotting away😢
W
Im getting one, extra powers...
A lot of the “weird brands” you were seeing are Toyotas, Toyota used to have a lot of unique badges on the front of the car depending on the model
i didn’t bring the giger cuz we wanted to conserve weight- it’s the size of a phone
I know the white sedan you said was a Camry is actually a Lexus LS, and there are a few Honda Civics there.
It’s actually a Toyota Celsior but yeah LS400 outside Japan
The Red Forester!! 😭😭😭😭
Risking your life for cars that you aren’t even interested in is comical
LMFAO
懐かしい車が結構ある…興味深い動画ありがとう。
Thanks!
when I saw the s600 V12 I was saying (I want it to restort it) also at 8:50 its a nissan micra and the white honda is a honda civic ej I guess
It's so painful to see the Mercedes and Scirocco abandoned 🥲
Rip all the Kei trucks
I was wondering about this. I own an evo that carries a radiation warning on its true report, and the car was sold through USS Tohoku back in 2015 so I assume the previous owner lived nearby? Anyways I assume the car is fine as it clearned Canadian customs and they have monitors at the port.
16:21 that poor Pajero 💔💔
It is sad to see such Legendary cars being left to rot with no chance of being restored. It is like shutting off a gaming console and never turning it on again
You don't really know what a JDM is, right? 😂
5:41 i think its a Lexus ls 400/430?
5:53 There's the red sports car you were looking for, it looks like a Mit 3000GT/GTO, you ignored it
Yeah, I would be quite sad to see those cars just stay there for ages but they're already gone and will corrode after a while.
A customer of mine had his Toyota Century imported from Japan, bought from a shady seller for 10k € and guess what, it started corroding quite badly. He also later on died because of cancer and I'm lucky that I never was inside that car.
I’d risk it all for the lorinser S-class!
the terminology this guy is using and the very little knowledge is making me angry😭😭
9:36 Mitsubishi debonair, 13:01 Toyota land cruiser Prado, 13:13 left Toyota Hiace right Nissan X Trail, 13:58 toyota caldina, 14:02 Toyota Land Cruiser, 14:41 Toyota Noah, 14:53 Subaru Legacy, 15:02 Volvo V70, 15:04 Nissan Teana J32, 16:16 Nissan Presage, 16:19 Toyota Voxy, 16:27 Toyota Picnic,16:47 Toyota Estima/Previa, 17:20 Nissan Skyline V36 sedan
The red car you ask was a nissan micra
Can’t believe he called a celsor a dam camary yea with 4 more cylinders 😂
i been a few weeks ago in Namie and Fukushima and i dont find this spot. where thsi is on google map?
😮😮😮WOW 2:27
Left the Geiger because it was too much weight to hop ?! what the actual hahahah
Wow
Me omw to get a radioactive car from Fukushima (It's cheaper than to buy 3 more cars for the government):
14:01 bro casually butchered the land cruiser calling it a 4runner
guys please use every protection u can it just doesnt worth it to risk ur health
I would love one of these cars bro I’ll die happy in them
You should think about going into educational filming or voice-over work etc. Very descriptive, with deep perspective on the Japanese situation. Whether it be an earthquake or a tsunami. Also, we thought wearing short trousers was kind of a nice touch and a slap in the face of danger..
The 'American looking truck" I believe is a 4 runner, they are fairly expensive 50-60K USD if I'm not mistaken
If there was a skyline gtr34 in fukushima
i would have expect them to be more rusted, 14:00 i need that land cruiser 🤤
Was that a S14 tail end on 15:04?
no, it was JZX 90
Bro why do u keep saying 4 runner for all the toyota brand suv's , there are shara and prado suvs
That poor ls400/celsor past as a Camry noo
16:20 that's not a strange brand, that's a Toyota, a Toyota Voxy btw, see these everywhere in Paraguay
The blue hatchback you saw could be a old Honda civic
Its some nice cars there including toyota celsiors chasers cresta so sad
I could be mistaken but 3:32 might be an early Mitsubishi Galant?
S15 0:37 looks in good shape
saw tha acura lengend coupe in the thumb nail had to watch
every honda you seen is a 5 gen civic
5:31 thats a civic ek6 and a toyota chaser/lexus ls 400 i think
It’s an eg hatch Civic, and the Toyota is a Celsior JDM LS400
Wears a t shirt and no gloves 😂😂
When you were in that area of 1000+ radiation if you pay attention you can see his camera start to get little orbs of light aka radiation interferening with the camera. Surprised you didn't get sick, Potassium iodide is a good thing to take after leaving these area.
that poor 90s S600 one of very few in japan let alone world wide
People saying he doesn’t know what JDM is, everything there is JDM apart from the VW. 😭😭 it’s in Japan ffs. He just didn’t know the cars specifically but he’s not wrong
8:45 K11 Nissan Micra/Nissan March and 5:40 thats not a camry, thats a 1st gen Toyota Celsior, in the western world known as Lexus LS400
12:54 and 14:04 those are Land Cruiser Prado, not a 4Runner, thats a US only model
16:10 thats a JDM version of the 9th generation E120 Corolla wagon (in the US this gen was sold only as a sedan), the Corolla and Yaris (previously called Vitz in japan) have their own emblems on the front as a “model badge”
17:14 thats a 2nd generation Toyota Previa
17:30 3rd gen Toyota Celsior/Lexus LS, and yes it was sold in US
20:52 not a no name, thats a 2nd gen Toyots Vitz, to us known as Yaris
21:16 7th gen E100 Toyota Corolla wagon
🎉🎉🎉....bom....
those cars left behind people watching their cars get over run by radiation.
Imagine if somebody from Fukushima watches this video and recognises their car that they abandoned during evacuation.
私のFTO '97はまだそこにあり、兄のLan EVO '93はまだ通路に残っています。ただし、このビデオではそれが見えませんでした。
I really wanted to see an EVO
I wonder if insurance paid out the former owners if they survived?
From an insurance standpoint irradiation would be considered a total loss.
Would a typical insurance policy cover nuclear accidents?
@@pooksthepossum if u don't mind me asking, do u ever plan to recover it? and why hasn't it been done?
