Balls of steel these people. I myself am a man of Aviation and what they did, to fly into those radioactive skies in their Mi-8s and Mi-26s and control the situation is such a daring task. I salute to these Pilots and give them my upmost respect.
search for video: The Battle of Chernobyl - Full Documentary at 36:35 in video you will see that 600 pilots are fatally contaminated with radiation and all of them will die later.
Onore per questi grandi piloti..E tutti coloro che hanno lavorato nell'inferno di chernobyl...Se non fosse stato per il loro sacrificio il danno sarebbe stato enorme..un saluto dall'Italia
So many young people on those helicopters. You know many did not survive the massive dose of radiation they received. This has to be one of the saddest videos I've watched.
I cannot imagine going from the hell of the Afghan war to coming home to get volunteered to do this. The suffering these men must have endured, but the world thanks them for it!
I guess they were forced to fly over cnpp from Afghanistan. Government took best pilots I heard. And I think they didn't know it was that risky like most of people
That poor group of guys whos chopper hit the crane wires wow. If any of them survived the crash they were dumped on top of hot graphite. They were double fucked.
They don't teach this stuff in school. I graduated in 2008 and they never once mentioned anything about Chernobyl. Hell I think some of the text books we had were older than 1986. I learned about Chernobyl and all the brave souls that sacrificed their lives to damn near save the world through TV and TH-cam.
It's Valeriy Starodumov. He wasn't a pilot. He was a liquidator who, judging by other videos, worked heavily on clearing the roofs at the plant. There is a video of him watching himself and his work crew clean up one of the roofs.
3:27 so the reason the reactor exploded was through cutting costs and using graphite on the cooling rods...so here they are again after the disaster...cutting costs...
I think I might have found something in the US National Library of Medicine. In the video he didn't give a first name, so I can't be sure. But it if it's the same guy he was being treated for tumors in his kidneys and urinary tract sometime before 1993. I couldn't find the book it references, so this was all I could find. "Samsonov VA. Tumours of the kidneys and the urinary tract. In: Kraevskii NA, Smoliannikov AV, Sarkisov DS, editors. Pathologo-anatomic diagnostics of human tumors. Vol. 3. Meditsina; Moscow: 1993. pp. 137-161.

I wished the Russian conversations, would be translated properly.. and not literally.. Im pausing, rewinding, all the time to try and understand what they are talking about. Some sentences are disappearing after 1 second, which also doesn't help :(. This stuff is so important, Everyone should know about this, it deserves proper translations. Unfortunately , I don't speak russian, else I would have rewritten it. (ingots, never heard of them.. call them bars, or blocks) Edit, Using google auto translate, I get better translations )
Chernobyl should serve as a warning for us never to use nuclear plants. Yes, its ok if used properly, but when it becomes common use, or normal, you know eventually some country is going to not take it seriously and cut costs on the plant construction and this will happen again. Chernobyl could have been much worse. It took the sacrifice of these young soldiers, who didn't even know what the consequences were. Just blindly unaware. The nuclear power should always be treated with respect, because when accidents happen, many lifes will be lost
You do know that we aren’t in the ussr in the 1980s right? Nuclear is the safest energy and produces a fraction of the CO2 that other sources do. Would you rather we dump waste in the atmosphere from fossil fuels or bury it a mile underground in a vault big enough to store 100 years of spent fuel? France gets 75% of their power from nuclear and there hasn’t been any major accidents. Stop this nuclear fearmongering and look at actual data

RIP
it should
They all received a theoretically deadly dose. Every single one of them. It’s easy to calculate. Incredible heroism.
search for video: The Battle of Chernobyl - Full Documentary
at 36:35 in video you will see that 600 pilots are fatally contaminated with radiation and all of them will die later.
How can you assess what dose they received?
Salute these brave men
"The healthy part of the nation". Wise words

One pilot its alive and living in Spain, speaking about for spanish television few months ago.
you talk about Nikolai Melnik
he die from cancer in 2013 it was the last one of the Chernobyl helicopter pilots.
True Heroes!
Thank you so much for the footage,i always wanted to know what liquid the helicopters sprayed
Long long, ever glory to these men
Very brave flying into radioactive sky everyone of these pilots hero’s
Heroic work of Soviet people
I wonder what happened to pilot Samsonov(?) and the other pilots.
@Raft Grumpy Yes probably. First year workers and those in Belorussia who lived in contaminated areas apparently didn't live long after.
Almost all died. Every single turn was about 10-20 roentgen, sometimes more. They did more than 50 flights each. It’s deadly.
They were killed by KGB! EVERYONE OF THEM!

Anyone know if yuri semelenko is still living?
Telecon Studio - can you ask Mr. Starodumov if Yuri Samoylenko is still alive? I know he was there the night of the accident so it's unlikely
so many different english spellings sorry
I think that he was ok as of mid 2010s
It seems you're right - there is a recent interview with him here th-cam.com/video/9wzxGK-tNOE/w-d-xo.html
No. Of course he was killed by KGB!
What a very poor equipment they had. These young pilots seem to come from the WW 1. In any case : balls of steel . Bye from Italy 🇮🇹
What do you mean by poor equipment? The mi-8s still remain State of the art helicopters .
So Boris had a life as pilot before he immersed himself in British politics!
Amazing images I never saw before!
Who is talking please? Was he a helicopter pilot?
Thanks!

Low Budget Feelings I wrote to the UN to make it a world cultural heritage. It must get the status.
