    10:43 and in Chernobyl too, but they didn't bother to do that in Bryanskaya oblast (it's in Belarus, I think). It's a neighboring region that got affected by fallout, so local rural area inhabitants have to grow potatoes to the "full" cycle (where potato skin becomes very thick) and peel it really well. And even then there's a lot more radiation than in "standard" potato. Still edible afaik.

It is mainly due to the absence of humans that animals are thriving, but they are all several generations later. This would give them time to develop immunity because natural selection would become 'literally anyone without this mutation dies' instead of 'this one is slightly better. give it a few million years'

    The thing that most bothers me about the Fallout series however is that it's been over 200 years since the nuclear exchange. And while things might not be perfectly safe, most of the radiation and fallout from the Great War will have long since been removed from the environment. Nuclear scientists believe that strontium-90 is one of the most dangerous isotopes created from a nuclear explosion, and that has a half life of 29 years. By the time of Fallout 4, 7.2 half lives have passed. That means that 99.7% of the strontium has decayed into zirconium. Radiation shouldn't be an issue really at all by that point.

      Some isotopes are still really dangerous like plutonium-239 which has a half life of 24,100 years. So no it could be plutonium-239 (unless it is stated in the fallout wiki or the game that it is strontium-90 or another isotope with a short half life) so I might not be strontium-90 which has a half life of 29 years like you said.

    • @VulcanTrekkie45
      @VulcanTrekkie45 4 года назад +21

      Cole Camara Well the big concern with strontium 90 is that it acts chemically just like calcium so it gets deposited in our bones and teeth. And continues to emit radiation for decades. Everyone on earth today has at least some strontium 90 in their bones and teeth

      I think it should be clear that Fallout is everything but scientifically accurate. The whole franchise was based on the idea to combine Fantasy RPG elements with a Post-apocalyptic setting. Super mutants are the orcs, ghoules are zombies, Brotherhood of Steel are the knights and so on. The first Fallout game even had dwarfs.

    In Disney's animated film Atlantis: the lost empire, the expedition team are seen eating meals comprised entirely of bacon grease as it's the only food their cook (Cookie) has to serve them on the long journey. Could the various members of the Atlantis exploration party survive for the duration of their journey eating only bacon grease and remain healthy enough to continue their journey? Has there been a IRL equivelant situation? Common sense may indicate it's improbability but what does the science say?

      Tell this to most of grandmas and grandpas. They don't get sick when they cut off a part of fruit/veggie that was directly affected by mold (I mean you can see it). Probably it's because rest of mold that is left isn't enough to cause sickness.

    @JELLIS-wq4zu 4 года назад +228

    Honestly, if I was to pick one place to live out the Zombie apocalypse, It would be Alaska. Why? Well, for one thing, Alaska only has around 700k people living in it, making it one of the emptiest states in America, so the chances of an extremely fast spread of the virus would be very very low. The terrain in Alaska is also very beneficial when it comes to surviving the Zombie Apocolypse. Frozen water, in the form of glacier ice, covers some 16,000 square miles (41,000 km2) of Alaska's surface, which would hinder Zombies ability to roam free. Alaska also has 39 mountain regions, splitting up the land which also makes it hard for the Zombies to get from one place to another quickly. And the Zombies would have a lot of land to cover! Alaska is the largest American state in terms of landmass, containing over 100,000 sq miles of area, so the chances of having your state swarming in Zombies is a lot smaller than if you tried hiding out in, say, Rhode Island.
    Another reason I would choose Alaska of all places is the weather. Average summer temperatures range from 40°F to 60°F (4° - 15°C). Winter temperatures in Alaska range from 0°F / -18°C to -30°F / -35°C from November to March. That is insanely cold weather, especially for humans. Our bodies basically shut down at around 21 C, and Zombies probably won't be going around wearing thick woolen overcoats. Whether or not they're dead or infected, the Zombies are still, at some level, human. If they tried attacking people that were living in the cold environment of Alaska, their bodies would essentially stop working for them due to the cold. Frostbite and exposure would quickly take down most if not all of the infected, leaving the humans who all this time have been holed up safe in their bunkers and igloos completely safe from the undead.
    So, you make the call. Feel free to meet up with me when the apocalypse begins, so we can make the trip in numbers and hopefully wait until all of the Zombies either can't infect enough people, deteriorate due to cold and exposure, or practically shatter their bodies falling off of a mountain or getting crushed by a glacier. And who knows? Maybe we can bring MatPat along so we can better understand our undead enemies!
    (I guess MatPat'll be headed to Ontario, Canada instead of us, but we'll show him!)

The more radioactive something is, the faster it decays into stable (i.e. non-radioactive) isotopes. Even just a few decades would be enough to leave everything mostly fine, and the fallout games all take place centuries after the fact.

      Except that fire mostly emits infrared and visible light, which are both non-ionising. Personally, I'd say that plants, growing in sunlight high in UV radiation, which is ionising, are a better example. Just wanted to make clear that fire is totally safe from a radiation standpoint :)
      Unless some scholar is about to school me. I tried to look it up but I can only find that fire emits thermal radiation, which is warmth.

    Most radioactive debris has a half life in minutes hours or days. Its the basis for the rule of 7. The primary concern is the bio-volatile fission product daughters radioiodine and radiocesium that are the most likely byproducts of fission of Uranium 235, they are what you were talking about at the roughly 8 min 30 second mark These isotopes have half lifes long enough that it takes roughly 30-40 years to fully decay. In the Pripyat area for example the only place there is any RS and RC left is in some mycellium, they no longer find it in the fish and animals.
    So have non perishable stores, use aquaponics indoor, store bags of pre fertilized soil, and make sure you can make it 40 years and it stops being a problem.

      That would take knowing how much gas you have for the back-up generators for the freezers. you could put fresh food in there for a year but then after that it comes down to expiration of canned items. 1-2 years, 4-5 if you don't mind some poisoning.

      Honestly this is a loaded question because due to panicking in a death situation superstores would be the first targets to hoarding so they’d do doubt be sucked dry from its food and necessities in a few days tops. What the comment above stated though if the superstore has gardening equipment you’d be able to get good crops from the amount of fertilizer and maybe a green house if you’re lucky

    • @PBSpiralGamer
      @PBSpiralGamer 4 года назад +4

      That would depend on how large the store is and what percent of items in that store can be eaten. Even then, some foods may last longer than others/have more servings. Also, does the store have anything you can cook with? Raw meat doesn’t taste great.
      Ideally, you would want to eat things that spoil the fastest first.
      If I had to take a guess based off of my local Fred Mayer’s, I would say... Maybe 5 or 6 years if all the coolants and things stayed on inside the store, and maybe like a year or 2 if everything stopped working in there.
