      There's lots of items since people where told not to take anything because the objects had radiation, and the filmmakers probably decide to film mostly the dolls to show decay and isolation in a dark tone, since dolls have already a creepy reputation in films.

    • @norbertfleck812

      Protective gear only avoids incorporation of radioactive particles (which is the most dangerous type of exposure).
      The protective gear does NOT protect against (gamma) radiation. The only protection against gamma radiation is to keep exposure time short
      However, having radioactive material directly on your unprotected skin (so alpha and beta rays can reach live tissues) is also not a smart idea. I would at least wear gloves.

      You are fine as long as you have short periods of exposure. The only really dangerous places are the Hospital Basement, inside and directly around the plant, and in any places where debris landed from the initial explosion.
      The Hospital Basement is where the Firefighters dropped all their gear after trying to fight the fire. I do believe a concrete wall was built around the internal reactor bits (I don't know much about reactors). This keeps people from going in. Samples of radioactive material were chipped off with rifle shots in order to eliminate exposure time.
      Chernobyl and Pripyat are fairly safe. I mean, people do live there and thousands probably visit every two or three years so, he's probably fine.

    I would be interested to find studies done on Hanford Reach, USA. While no catastrophic events have occurred, during the earlier years there was a plethora of unmarked radioactive dump sites, and tons of radioactive material buried in the ground. Most of it was from the era they were making weapons grade plutonium. There have been rabbits caught and found to be 'hot' with radiation. Bird nests knocked down on site, and workers told to avoid the area as their droppings were hot as well. But it also has some of the best thriving elk populations, with higher calving rates and survival rates, probably due to lack of hunting but it would be interesting to find if the area has any impact on it.

      @ponypaw 8 ปีที่แล้ว +379

      +Hollow Marthon An X-ray test actually gives more radiation to you than you standing in the edge of Chernobyl for 4-5 hours. Radiation is measured in micro sieverts and 1 banana has about 0.1 microsieverts, so 45 microsieverts per hour (at the edge of Chernobyl) isn't too much for him to wear a suit. Also, it takes about 2 million microsieverts, or 2 sieverts for a person to be fatally injured by radiation damage, so he won't need a suit unless he tries to experiment at the center of the incident, where it could reach to a number of maybe 5000 microsieverts per hour.
