Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plains?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
I love this so much. Most youtubers focus on what went wrong or make adventure of fascination of city falling apart. You present side that is very much overlooked aside from surface level...the side of potential if disaster never happened. The side of how city could thrive today. It is amazing and unique lookout on the city. Seeing city fall apart more and more makes me sad. I know that for few years there was still hope, government would still keep up city maintanence up even keeping heating up to prevent structural problems from frozen pipes and such. Even though city was empty hope was there, potential wasn't overlooked. But yea that hope soon went away as Ukraine struggled financially too much sadly. They stopped maintaining city...turned heating off... it all went down after. Thing is city aside from invasion and buildings falling apart is actually quite safe. What I mean is radiation wise. The main contributor for radiation got toned down that much over those decates. Only few pockets would need to marked down and protected from general public and city would be mostly livable today. I'm not sure for permanent residency but at least for tourists who aren't there 365 day per year it would be perfectly safe since radiation risk comes from combination of radiation level X time of exposure. Nowadays it's super low radiation in most places. I find it shame they didn't preserve it, missed opportunity. They shouldn't give up. There were actually more district planned for future before disaster strook. So yeahh all this would be super interesting. I'm fascinated by future that it could be. You're giving this rare insight that i'm most fascinated about. Thank you!
I see this more from the proespective of if Chornobyl could be made safer in the near future. It would mean moving heaven and earth, but to think what a future Pripyat could be like. Sadly unless we find a way to invert the radiation process to clean up the city.
As a little boy I always thought this city was amazing and wanted to visit it before the accident. The buildings just seemed so interesting and unique.
Thank you! I agree with you. It's just entertaining content. But there are videos here related to the current situation. And when we kick out the occupier, we'll rebuild the destroyed cities.

Great job, love the idea and the research you did. You've earned a sub!
Thanks! Welcome to the channel :)
Very nice work!
amazing video
Wow this is so cool
Excellent work!

After we liberate the country from the occupiers - come for a tour.
It’s amazing but There’s 1 huge problem though:
The invadion of Ukraine makes it harder and Ukraine needs to repair itself first
I blog about the current situation in Ukraine on instagram. About Pripyat, it's more entertainment content
chernobyl wont be fixed mate its just a concept
Fantastic work! Absolutely loved it, this is true ART as well!

Beautiful video about a city, as it should have been kept up. Thank you.
Thank you for being active. It's very important to me right now
Excelent job!
Good job 👍 are you planning to restore the swimming pool and hotel areas?
Thanks! The next video will most likely be an amusement park.
Awesome work!!
