I re-watched Chernobyl again and I was so furious at Anatoly in the first episode that I stopped watching and googled his name just to "make sure justice was served", this is how I found out the truth, and now I feel sad for him. Thankfully, I can keep watching the show now knowing that his character is pure fiction.
You know I'm not taking sides here. But the men are only as good as the instituations that train them, the men that lead them, and the countries that harbor them. The sad part is that no one there could have done anything differently. They had their data and their orders and would have been killed or imprisoned if they didn't follow. I mean they had the guards come to force the one guy to look into the core and report back.
this series did a wonderful job to make someone the villain even though he wasnt .... his orders help reactor 3 to be safe .... or else it wouldnt have been unit 4 but unit 3and 4 .... after seeing his interview ..... i was very clear of the fact that he knew what he was doing ..... u cant do something which u dont know ....the safety manual never mentioned about the az5 leading to a atom bomb which noone had expected ... RIP to all the victims of chernobyl
Exactly. I was just about to write about this. I understand making him the bad guy in the series helped to the audience to better understand the cause, however, in reality, Djatlov was no villain. He worked hard to get to his position with an expert understanding of nuclear plant reactors. He was hard, yes. But the show, at least, shows the audience that he actually did not know about AZ-5 reaction consequences because it was just hired to him. That makes him actually a victim of the regime. So at the end the audience understands it was not his fault. At least technically not.
Yes, it wasn't entirely his fault as he did not know about the critical flaw of the reactor but there were several points in this test which he, as an chief engineer should take as a warning and cancel the test. He did not. He persisted to complete the test, despite unfavorable and even dangerous conditions
@@Analena30but here ego was not of one physicist there were many people's ego also it is true this was the first of his kind explosions so there was no scientific logic and couldn't understand what was happening hence resulted they were denying because of their fear.
Diatlov was only one screw in the whole clock. It was a matter of time before this catastrophe occurred, tests of this kind were performed before and surely if Diatlov was successful those tests surely executed in the future. The whole system of nuclear reactor safety practices was inadequate at that time.
@@valentinaselektrikas Ironically, the test was to determine how safe the reactor was doing shut down. Unfortunately, the safety systems got in the way of them doing the test. So they disabled them.
@@neilkurzman4907 Safety systems were not in the way of test. If I remember correctly INSAG reported even with safety systems in place outcome of Chernobyl disaster possibly is still the same. It was not the key for disaster, its construction of reactor itself plus its systems allowing too much control of the reactor and many more reasons. I recommend watching MIT lecture about Chernobyl disaster.
The real Diatlov was not like what you see in the show. He was just as bamboozled and confused when the reactor exploded. The real Diatlov did everything by the book, its just that the book was wrong.
This why having Dyatlov toxic boss/leadership is a life and death situation. Literally why the Soviet Union failed because people like him however this case he was not like that
The test had already failed. Which meant that he would’ve had to report in the morning that he wasn’t able to complete the test. So he tried to see if he could complete the test. Sorry, but his workers were following his instructions. It doesn’t matter that he left the room. And if it was such a Critical time, then he should’ve a border to test or not left the room.
I think they made him it that way for the plot. so that the viewer has someone to hate. after reading Dyatlov's book, it becomes clear to me that he is sincerely trying to show the truth about the disaster. it is a pity that he died unjustified. such a sad fate
@@emreiz-ukraine he did say in his interview that people wanted to leave the job because people found him intimidating but he did that for certain jobs some of it intentionally and sometimes not
@@nuclearRAT_ he probably has a difficult character by nature, or maybe he became so after the grief he experienced, namely after the death of his son. Not everyone can be the same after this.
Many people say that he made the Soviet Union to collapse but i think he didn't do anything wrong because he didn't know that nuclear would collapse nor leonid The one who pushed AZ.5 I think the one who wrong was KGB (USSR government ) because they were in war with USA and they USSR were jealous after they went space( apollo) 3:27 He doesn't deserve prison or death I think he wasn't guilty at all
Dyatlov never should've been anywhere near chernobyl that night. His screaming incompetence had already caused 2 meltdowns on nuclear subs when he worked as a nuclear engineer for the soviet navy, one of which resulted in the death of his son from leukaemia. With a record like that anywhere else in the world he'd have been sweeping floors at a dollar store, but because the communist system rewarded incompetence he was allowed to continue his career.
But somehow you assume that in the capitalist system that he couldn’t have also survived and thrived. People who cut corners get things done. Higher ups like that. When something bad happens, the same people will try and see who they can pass the blame down to.
@@Hammerhead547 So if you’re trying to say, is you never work for a large corporation before? They do stupid stuff all the time. It’s why some of them fail so spectacularly. No, sometimes being the best and brightest, doesn’t rise you to the top and capitalism. It’s the willingness to crush and destroy anybody who gets in your way. Being willing to screw anybody over, and break any law. It off and works until it doesn’t. Try not to put human factors into your story about communism. Capitalism has its own set of problems.

thanks for the comment, it is very useful for me, because this is my first video in this format. I also think that in some moments it was necessary to make the music a little quieter

Ukraine represents Dyatlov...not Russia its been presented world over...when people get low like J'LO and Kardashian family ppl they come to their state. But not country...
Unlikely. The scale and nature of what happened made it impossible for anyone in western Europe to ignore. And it happened on the soviet bloc. (admittedly the radiation did travel to western Europe). Moscow would eventuality not have a choice. Someone with a big enough mouth would eventually demand a straight god damn answer from Russia because of the random Alarming radiation coming from the east. Let's say Moscow did the opposite and kept tight lipped about it...Right-o. Send up the black birds or what ever latest and greatest fastest thing they have. Or turn every god damn satellite on the soviet union and eastern block. They would eventually find out themselves. Which in theory would be an even worse outcome for Moscow and one giant propaganda win for the west. "oh look what Moscow tried to keep quiet when asked several times about what the hell was going on" Not enough to start a full blown war. And if it did...well... Mutually assured destruction would mean chernobyl is no longer a concern.

Dyatlov represented the Soviet Union in this show.

Around 3:29 or 3:30 I like the specks in the film like what happens in a real highly radioactive environment.

The problem is they should not have even needed the az5 for a routine safety test. But yes, not just his fault
