Absolutely fascinating video. Could not have explained it better. I love how you are able to explain everything in detail with all parts linked together perfectly, and still in a reasonable short amount of time. Hope you guys continue making videos this good
Im all for nuclear power but why were they allowed to build a nuclear power plant in one of the most earthquake/tsunami prone places on earth? Not to mention putting their generators underground instead of higher up..
It's Japan. Look back in history and you would see what kind of a country this is. If I remember it right, Russia had an explosion and they shut down the plant since then. But Japan? No. Just ask US for backing and spent 70 billions on online public relations.
So Japan shouldnt have clean reliable power? Onagawa was closer to the epicenter of the earthquake and suffered less damage than Fukushima Daiichi. It had nothing to do with earthquakes or tsunamis but money or pride. Onagawa was told to build a higher wall, they did and haven't been damaged. Fukushima was warned, ignored the warnings, and had an accident. Its like people who ignore problems with their car but then get in serious accidents. No one should be allowed to have cars using your logic.
@@RaheelPervaiz123 Do you mean for nuclear plants? Thats what diesel/gas generators are for (for any power plant, hospital or business). Batteries are unreliable and only last as long as they can hold a charge (less than a week. Think about how often you have to charge your phone and how little youre actually doing. Power plants, hospitals, etc are doing a lot more than you. There will never be a battery powerful enough to provide reliable backup but even if there was it wouldnt be practical). Worst case scenario is a diesel generator could run on used vegetable oil or maybe kitchen grease.
That was a really well presented video on what happened at Fokushima. It is worring that the Japanese Government are allowing radio active water to be pumped into the ocean. I also hope they never build so many plants in one area.
The level of radiation being released is 1/4 of what any of the reactor in China releases on a DAILY basis. This is such an unnecessary reaction fostered by CCP propaganda.
China's nuclear power plants are infinitely more dangerous than Japan's The Chinese government controls information Chinese people are pretty racist and ugly.
1-why do you want Japan to not have clean, reliable energy 2-please explain why dumping the "radioactive" water is a bad thing. Please explain everything about tritium (what the water consists of).
I agree with Japan in releasing radioactive water into the ocean, as long as the rate of dumbing water is slow enough to make the added radioactive level less than the natural Tritium level in the sea water. As long as they don’t dump too much radioactive water into the ocean at once, it should be fine.
Amazing how there was no blaming in this video. Every video I've seen about this accident has been mixed with blaming TEPCO and the Japanese Government. But this video just focused on the event cycle and facts ❤
The list of "most Powerfull Earthquakes" is weird. Ignoring pre 1900 Earthquakes because of the lack of Recording, the strongest Quakes known are actually: 1960, Chile, 9.5 (9.4-9.6) 1964, Alaska, 9.2 2004, Indonesia, 9.1 (9.1-9.3) 2011, Japan, 9.1 1952, Russia, 9.0 [...] Going with the List by USGS the Türkiye-Syria Quake this Year sits at Place 211 since 1900 with the famous 1906 San Francisco Earthquake (M7.9), the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake the 2010 Chile Earthquake but also 17 other Quakes in Japan being stronger.
Untrue. TEPCO did not follow modern practices for nuclear power plant safety. For example, the seawater pumps for the cooling system should have been better protected. It's normal practice to ensure that connections and containment for key systems are watertight, but they never did that. It's also obvious from the geologic and historical record that tsunamis could easily overtop the sea wall.
Did no-one watch any of the Godzilla movies? If they had they would have known the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant was just an accident waiting to happen... :P
Hello, I hope you are well. I filled out the form you published for editor and I see myself as suitable for this position, but since I haven't received an answer yet, I wanted to write here.
2011 was not a great year for Japan. There the 9.1 magnitude earthquake that killed thousands and caused some nuclear reactors to be in a disastrous nuclear meltdown. Fukushima was a disaster due to TEMCO's making of poor safety of nuclear energy.
In my oppinion they handled it far worse then the Soviets. The Soviets "moved mountains" to prevent further catastrophe, while Japanees seem not to be bothered to do much.
What should they have done? Chernobyl had no roof over the reactor. It was like a volcano spewing radioactive material. Fukushima had a containment building. What else should Fukushima have done that they hadnt?

@@namename9998 The accident was preventable. Not sure what they could have done better after the accident, but there are numerous best-practices TEPCO did not follow for the facility. Key power systems and infrastructure should have been watertight, and the pumps should have been better protected (with backups for all of the above). Furthermore, the historical (and geologic) record pointed to tsunamis that could easily overtop the sea wall.

Living in Germany, i can understand why our country has shut down all their nuclear power houses since 2021. But was it a smart decision? After 2022 Germany is facing crisis due to not being dependent on russian gas and are watching the neighbour country line France building even more nuclear power houses. I feel stupid.

Underground is the best place for them. They need to be close to the plant and protected. Yes, now they know should be able to waterproof the bunker, but 100ft+ waves aren't very common or likely. We learned and now we improve.
i think the dumping of the treated radioactive water is perfectly fine given the standards of treatment and dilution performed/proposed by japan. it turns out to be way safer than what other reactors around the world are doing. the numbers (sieverts and bq levels) and perspectives (how much more radioactive it is compared to other countries and typical everyday items) have to be presented accurately when talking about this. from what i gather, the treated water would be marginally more radioactive than a kilo of coffee. and that will be diluted even more when it's released into the ocean
I dont know about how radioactive it would be compared to coffee but the amount of tritium in all the water is a mere 3g. Theres more sugar in a 12oz can of soda than there is tritium in all the water. "It is estimated that approximately 706 million gallons of waste oil enter the ocean every year, with over half coming from land drainage and waste disposal; for example, from the improper disposal of used motor oil."
The statement "radioactive waste water" is not a good term to describe the tritium water that is released without explanation. It is water which has had as much radioactive materials removed already but because tritium water HTO is so similar to H2O, makes it near impossible to remove those. What concerns me more are the neighbouring countries like China and Korea, as well as countries that uses nuclear power, like France and U.K., are releasing amounts with much higher radioactivity than this, into the ocean. Everyone is happy to point at Japan but not at themselves. So what should we do about it? Go back to burning coal and fossil fuel?
As it looks like, Fukushima reactors have no true safety containment. It is like with Tschernobyl reactor. There also only a normal Metall construction is given as outer wall. In normal western nuclear reactors the entire radiactive part is contained in a bunkerlike concrete ball with around 2 m wall thickness and perhaps 50 - 80 m diameter. The EPR goes one step further. Also a complete core melting cannot penetrate the shielding bunker construction. And it is really hazarous to build an NOT-BUNKERED nuclear power station on the sea side when Tsunami occurence is well known. This proofs not the impossibility of nuclear power, like German Politicians claim, but the madness of building offices in Japan.
@@wolfgangrenner4152 This video clearly shows tsunami protection walls were built in the sea. So why wouldn't the constructors of the power plant not have been informed?
@@Apollorion They were not informed about the magnitude of japanese tsunanis. The wall was to small. More over the nuclear core part was not completely bunkert, like it is generally done in modern nuclear power stations. It is really open like the Tschernobyl facility.

10:23 "A 2013 WHO report also stated that a certain subset of populations living inside the Fukushima Prefecture had a substantially higher chance of developing thyroid cancer in their lifetime." Cherry picking data doesnt make it true. From a 2021 article from Reuters "VIENNA (Reuters) - A U.N. scientific panel on Tuesday confirmed a previous finding that radiation from the 2011 Fukushima disaster in Japan was unlikely to raise cancer rates discernibly, and said a jump in thyroid cancer in children was due to “ultrasensitive” screening methods. In a first round between 2011 and 2015, more than 300,000 people aged 18 and under in the Fukushima area were screened for thyroid cancer using highly sensitive ultrasound equipment, UNSCEAR said, revealing 116 cases of actual or suspected cancer. A study using equivalent equipment in three prefectures not exposed to radiation from Fukushima found rates of thyroid cysts and nodules - possible indications of cancer - as high as those in the Fukushima screening, UNSCEAR added. “On the balance of available evidence, the large increase ... in the number of thyroid cancers detected among exposed children is not the result of radiation exposure,” UNSCEAR said. “Rather, they are the result of ultrasensitive screening procedures that have revealed the prevalence of thyroid abnormalities in the population not previously detected.”" From a 2012 scientific paper "The thyroid examination program started mainly by requests from psychological and social demands, and the most important and troublesome task is how to explain the results of the examination to patients, families and to the public. Many children were already found to have small cysts and/or nodules, and most of them will have no clinical thyroid diseases in their lives. Thyroid radiation doses less than the intervention level were obtained from only 1,000 children; therefore, it is impossible to determine radiation-induced from nonradiation-induced thyroid cancer."
All of this is because the USA refused to develop nuclear reactors that DIDN'T have the power of developing bombs. Their thirst for weapons caused reactors of poor design to be implemented globally. I'm of the belief that this is essentially the 2nd time the USA has caused nuclear damage in Japan. I'm just glad modern reactors are built with passive systems in place.
@@BrokenLifeCycle sadly I'm not really. The US was developing a reactor based off Thorium reactions, and even had a working proof of concept in the 60's. But since the Thorium reqction didn't produce plutonium which the government wanted to make bombs with, they completely scrapped the project for it to only be recently revived by other countries, namely China, India, and some Canadian experts are helping with them to make their LFTRs (Liquid Flouride Thorium Reactor) which provide power with VERY little waste produced, as the waste can be burned in breeder reactors to continue producing power. So yea, the USA's thirst for nuclear weapon fuel altered the direction they went for nuclear reactors, stunting LFTR reactor designs by over 50 years.
@@Fenthule Commercial reactors (the ones that power houses) are different than military/govt reactors. And just because a reactor can do something doesnt mean it has to. And "Nuclear weapons require fissile materials, that is certain isotopes of uranium and plutonium, to sustain explosive fission chain reactions. Plutonium for weapons is normally obtained by reprocessing. Reprocessing is the separation of plutonium from irradiated uranium, often in the spent fuel from a nuclear reactor." It has nothing to do with what reactors were used. France reprocesses their fuel and look theyre not known for their nuclear weapons. And "Plutonium-239 is used to make nuclear weapons." "Plutonium-239 is primarily used as a fuel to power nuclear reactors. In fact, it enters into the composition of MOX fuel - mixed uranium and plutonium oxide. By combining the Pu 239 produced by nuclear reactors with depleted uranium, MOX can be used to fabricate one new fuel assembly from every 8 used fuel assemblies." "Plutonium-239 present in reactor fuel can absorb neutrons and fission just as uranium-235 can. Since plutonium-239 is constantly being created in the reactor core during operation, the use of plutonium-239 as nuclear fuel in power plants can occur without reprocessing of spent fuel; the plutonium-239 is fissioned in the same fuel rods in which it is produced. Fissioning of plutonium-239 provides more than one-third of the total energy produced in a typical commercial nuclear power plant." "Plutonium-239 gathered from dismounted nuclear weapons as well as from nuclear reactors is an important source of energy to generate electricity. Almost around 10 million kilowatt-hours of electricity are produced by one kilogram of Pu-239."
@@Fenthule You've got your facts completely wrong. Westinghouse was not at fault in any way. The blame lies solely on TEPCO for their design deficiencies.
So one of the lessons learned from Fukushima is that a huge amount of nuclear power can be struck by the largest earthquake and tsunami ever recorded, and nobody gets harmed by nuclear radiation. Another lesson learned is that an evacuation order issued too hastily did harm and kill people.
Sooo the guy tells the press the plant is vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes and 4 days later there's a random tsunami... how thick are you? Did you pass second grade? Did you make note of the last three years on earth or were you at daycare? xP

Cherry picking data doesnt make it true.
From a 2021 article from Reuters
"VIENNA (Reuters) - A U.N. scientific panel on Tuesday confirmed a previous finding that radiation from the 2011 Fukushima disaster in Japan was unlikely to raise cancer rates discernibly, and said a jump in thyroid cancer in children was due to “ultrasensitive” screening methods.
In a first round between 2011 and 2015, more than 300,000 people aged 18 and under in the Fukushima area were screened for thyroid cancer using highly sensitive ultrasound equipment, UNSCEAR said, revealing 116 cases of actual or suspected cancer.
A study using equivalent equipment in three prefectures not exposed to radiation from Fukushima found rates of thyroid cysts and nodules - possible indications of cancer - as high as those in the Fukushima screening, UNSCEAR added.
“On the balance of available evidence, the large increase ... in the number of thyroid cancers detected among exposed children is not the result of radiation exposure,” UNSCEAR said.
“Rather, they are the result of ultrasensitive screening procedures that have revealed the prevalence of thyroid abnormalities in the population not previously detected.”"
From a 2012 scientific paper
"The thyroid examination program started mainly by requests from psychological and social demands, and the most important and troublesome task is how to explain the results of the examination to patients, families and to the public. Many children were already found to have small cysts and/or nodules, and most of them will have no clinical thyroid diseases in their lives. Thyroid radiation doses less than the intervention level were obtained from only 1,000 children; therefore, it is impossible to determine radiation-induced from nonradiation-induced thyroid cancer."
Ok video but total bullshit at the end . 3-4 reactors went into the atmosphere. And the tanks are full of air ha
6:00 should be 'run' by.
All of this is because the USA refused to develop nuclear reactors that DIDN'T have the power of developing bombs. Their thirst for weapons caused reactors of poor design to be implemented globally. I'm of the belief that this is essentially the 2nd time the USA has caused nuclear damage in Japan. I'm just glad modern reactors are built with passive systems in place.
Elaborate please, because I feel like you're omitting some details here.
@@BrokenLifeCycle sadly I'm not really. The US was developing a reactor based off Thorium reactions, and even had a working proof of concept in the 60's. But since the Thorium reqction didn't produce plutonium which the government wanted to make bombs with, they completely scrapped the project for it to only be recently revived by other countries, namely China, India, and some Canadian experts are helping with them to make their LFTRs (Liquid Flouride Thorium Reactor) which provide power with VERY little waste produced, as the waste can be burned in breeder reactors to continue producing power.
So yea, the USA's thirst for nuclear weapon fuel altered the direction they went for nuclear reactors, stunting LFTR reactor designs by over 50 years.
@@Fenthule Commercial reactors (the ones that power houses) are different than military/govt reactors. And just because a reactor can do something doesnt mean it has to. And
"Nuclear weapons require fissile materials, that is certain isotopes of uranium and plutonium, to sustain explosive fission chain reactions. Plutonium for weapons is normally obtained by reprocessing.
Reprocessing is the separation of plutonium from irradiated uranium, often in the spent fuel from a nuclear reactor."
It has nothing to do with what reactors were used. France reprocesses their fuel and look theyre not known for their nuclear weapons. And
"Plutonium-239 is used to make nuclear weapons."
"Plutonium-239 is primarily used as a fuel to power nuclear reactors. In fact, it enters into the composition of MOX fuel - mixed uranium and plutonium oxide. By combining the Pu 239 produced by nuclear reactors with depleted uranium, MOX can be used to fabricate one new fuel assembly from every 8 used fuel assemblies."
"Plutonium-239 present in reactor fuel can absorb neutrons and fission just as uranium-235 can. Since plutonium-239 is constantly being created in the reactor core during operation, the use of plutonium-239 as nuclear fuel in power plants can occur without reprocessing of spent fuel; the plutonium-239 is fissioned in the same fuel rods in which it is produced. Fissioning of plutonium-239 provides more than one-third of the total energy produced in a typical commercial nuclear power plant."
"Plutonium-239 gathered from dismounted nuclear weapons as well as from nuclear reactors is an important source of energy to generate electricity. Almost around 10 million kilowatt-hours of electricity are produced by one kilogram of Pu-239."
@@Fenthule You've got your facts completely wrong. Westinghouse was not at fault in any way. The blame lies solely on TEPCO for their design deficiencies.
So one of the lessons learned from Fukushima is that a huge amount of nuclear power can be struck by the largest earthquake and tsunami ever recorded, and nobody gets harmed by nuclear radiation.
Another lesson learned is that an evacuation order issued too hastily did harm and kill people.
An the oceans are screwed.
It's been twelve years and there has been NO change whatsoever in the marine life surrounding Japan. But yeah, keep telling yourself that, nutjob.
Just after the disaster, many ghosts were seen in Japan; but if Marx was so right about evolution, how is this?
It shouldn't have built
Sooo the guy tells the press the plant is vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes and 4 days later there's a random tsunami... how thick are you? Did you pass second grade? Did you make note of the last three years on earth or were you at daycare? xP
I really like Japan, it's my second favourite country after my home country Finland and it's funny I've never visited in Japan. Reasons why I love Japan are because, im interested of Japan's history with Samurais, japanese langue is amazing, japanese foods like ramen and Sushi are really tasty, Japan's nature with Sakura trees and Fuji volcano is so beautiful and being a huge videogame nerd and animefan I really wan't to visit in Japan once in my lifetime. Fukushima's nuclear bomb explosion is one of world's most terryfying catastrophies in history and I really hope it won't happened again, United States stuppied thing theyre ever maded was when theyre shooted a nuclearbomb in Japan's Fukushima, there is still dangerous nuclear radition in Fukushima today. I wish no one even North-Korea will not launch nuclear bombs in Japan, i've readed and heared news where North-Korea have been flyed Nuclear bombs through Japan's air space what's really scary, world's have to protect and support that beautiful country of the rising sun. That video was so interesting piece of Japan's history. 🌏🌊🗻☀️🗼🏭⛩️🏯🥷🏻🇯🇵
I used to like Japan too and I had visited Japan in the past. Now this is the country I condemn most. Even before this very selfish act, I had learned about the dark history of Japan and the various war crimes that they had committed, then and now.
Japan has options. Paying 70 billion on online public relations should never be one of them.
Please provide sources that there was a nuclear bomb explosion at Fukushima.
