Thank you for clearing up the myths about the divers. As of 2019, two of the three were still alive, and they are indeed absolute heroes. Luckily, there were several liquidators there to decontaminate the divers immediately upon their egress from the flooded basement. The water wasn’t drained right after they opened the drainage gate however. Several hoses had to be dripped down through the gate to pump the water out, which from what I have read took several days. The first hoses inserted even broke shortly after and had to be quickly replaced. There are a lot of great books out there. One of my favorites is called “Ablaze,” written by Piers Paul Read.

There is town of Chernobyl and town of Pripyat. And the power plant Chernobyl. Pripyat is few kilometrin away to North from the plant, and the town Chernobyl about 25 kilometers south from power plant
koolest kid you’re right, not many know that fact. It amazes me how we called it Chernobyl, as Chernobyl is a small town located downriver from the power plant. I’m confused on how we didn’t just call the power plant the Pripyat power plant.

They did not have pump lights actually, that was made up in the HBO series. No joke they actually managed to do the task in complete darkness after the lights went off. But it was not realistic for the series, sometimes truth is stranger than fiction
Actually it would not have been a problem if not for human error, in fact nuclear power is the safest form of power, and yes that's right, that includes, solar, wind, and hydroelectric, yet just like planes when it goes wrong it goes very wrong, but it is very rare
"It took hours to totally put that raging fire out". Hours To put out a blaze being fueled by an out of control nuclear reaction? Ok seems logical, It took more like 10 days for the fire to be completely smothered
It’s worth noting that a nuclear power station will never, ever, ever explode like a nuclear bomb. It cannot happen. The reason for this is because the nuclear fuel is nowhere near enriched enough. Which is exactly what you want. You don’t want all your fuel releasing its energy in a split second. You want it to release its energy over as long of a period as possible, and for it to only release as much energy as is required to boil water and turn it into steam, that’s all. The quoted potential explosion would have been a steam explosion, nothing more. Power reactors do not go off like nukes, and that’ll never happen. This seems to be a common misconception of nuclear power.
DreamyWolf umm, no? It was decidedly not a nuclear explosion. It was a steam explosion. It is literally against the laws of physics for a nuclear power station to go off like a nuclear bomb. They are two completely different animals.
Theres a movie on Netflix called “Pandora” and it has the ending the guys described as “too depressing for Hollywood” ABSOLUTELY recommend though! its Korean but its BREATHTAKING
How they decided who goes for the pipe valve. Who here as kids raise your hands? Alright who here as a wife? Alright you 4 have to go One of the guys "nah man I left my oven on" Alright you three poor souls
Well had they not volunteered, usually how situations that involve the containment or some means of lessening a radiation leak goes like this: The old and or dieing are the first to go in, the younger people who have more of life to go through are the last to go in.
“This ain’t Hollywood, this is real life” cannot describe how horrific this event was. These men put themselves last to save Modern Europe. Words cannot express how heroically brave these men were.

There is a man named vlad living in the latgale in latvia..he is a friend of my dad and he worked in chernobyl reactor on a pickup thingy car? I'm soon gonna meet him and vlad is 89 years old
This is a very sad story man. 3 brave suicide squad members had the guts to do this dangerous task of tackling this radiation issue that caused casualties. I was surprised by this because yes I heard about the radiation incident on the internet that was talking about one of the 80's nuclear disaster but I never knew these 3 men from the suicide squad put their lives on the frickin line!!!!! It was like going to war and putting your life at risk for potential dangers coming their way, real talk!!!!!😞😞😞😠😠😠 But great video Infographics show I actually learned something today.
@@Titano_Tarocco I know but think about it, it was like going to war to protect your country. Well in this case protecting people as many as possible but some people died due to the exposure of radiation. Also some people were disabled at least what the Infographics show was talking about. Yes it was an honor for those men to do what they did but I personally don't think I would risk my life for something like that. It takes unique people to do this sort of thing though.
Riccardo Pietracito they actually didn’t, they all died and the infographics show made it sound like they were prepared, they were killed from radiation
DreamyWolf the infographics show actually isn’t right about most things, in their Air Force pilot video an actual pilot debunked the video, and a lot of what they said was wrong, this included. Those men died of radiation poisoning as there is no possible way they could have survived
I remember hearing about this....🥺 I remember a girl, who was on a t.v. show, was bald. She suffered from radiation. I was so sad. And, those men are so brave...
@@Scroggit perhaps reading a but on the subject would help you out. Pripyat was built in the 70s and was built for the workers families. Chernobyl was founded in the 1100s and has been constantly populated since then. That is why you see different population figures. Chernobyl = 14,000 and Pripyat = 50,000. As someone who has visited Chernobyl and Pripyat, I'm pretty sure they're 2 separate places.

Your right, there's a floating car

It’s worth noting that a nuclear power station will never, ever, ever explode like a nuclear bomb. It cannot happen. The reason for this is because the nuclear fuel is nowhere near enriched enough. Which is exactly what you want. You don’t want all your fuel releasing its energy in a split second.

The quoted potential explosion would have been a steam explosion, nothing more. Power reactors do not go off like nukes, and that’ll never happen. This seems to be a common misconception of nuclear power.
No, but when water comes in contact, it will blow up because it is in an enclosed space.
A 3-5 megaton steam explosion
But go off
The latest study from the Swedish researchers shows that the first of the two Chernobyl explosions was indeed nuclear in nature.

50,000 people used to live here now its a ghost town
captain mcmillan to lieutenant price
Yup best COD mission ever
Leftenant*
Templar Knight No, it's in reference to a CODMW2 mission, and in fact, is lieutenant Price.
@@andrewhuber2149 No, Price is British and the British counterpart is Leftenant
You said chernobyl is a city. It's not. It's the name of the nuclear power plant.
The name of the city is pripyat.
50.000 people used to live here... now... it's a ghost town
@@hgdeepolis nobody ever lived in chernobyl. Chernobyl is the name of the plant.
@@ryanfitch1334 i made a refrence to cod mw i know you're right
@@hgdeepolis oh my bad dude I didn't even realize it
The name of the power plant is the Vladimir Lenin nuclear power plant
I just watched this after stranger things season 3 and I was crying when I heard the name Alexei.
whts the movie name ?

How they decided who goes for the pipe valve.
Who here as kids raise your hands?
Alright who here as a wife?
Alright you 4 have to go
One of the guys "nah man I left my oven on"
Alright you three poor souls
They probably volunteered
@@tomlawrence1335 oh wow man i didn't think about that one..
@@tomlawrence1335 they did volunteer themselves
Well had they not volunteered, usually how situations that involve the containment or some means of lessening a radiation leak goes like this: The old and or dieing are the first to go in, the younger people who have more of life to go through are the last to go in.
@@Acepilot235 yes thats the joke
Dude. Excellent video. No bs, no ads for yourself (or other companies) and well animated 👍
2:09 "thousands of people used to live here, but now its a ghost town"
“This ain’t Hollywood, this is real life” cannot describe how horrific this event was. These men put themselves last to save Modern Europe. Words cannot express how heroically brave these men were.
Not even 30 secs in and they're already calling Pripyat "The City of Chernobyl" LULW
Check your facts ;) city that had 14 000 inhabitans is actually called chernobyl located around 14 km from power plant
It should be a movie. Doesn't matter how depressing it would be. It was real and should be shown to everyone. And it would become an Oscar winning movie TBH
The story was featured in the 2019 miniseries Chernobyl.
Yesterday watching BBC Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson said “The radioactive cloud is so devastating that Chernobyl remains uninhabitable for 20,000 years”.
I did not know that Clarkson has got a degree in nuclear physics...
There is a man named vlad living in the latgale in latvia..he is a friend of my dad and he worked in chernobyl reactor on a pickup thingy car? I'm soon gonna meet him and vlad is 89 years old
This is a very sad story man. 3 brave suicide squad members had the guts to do this dangerous task of tackling this radiation issue that caused casualties. I was surprised by this because yes I heard about the radiation incident on the internet that was talking about one of the 80's nuclear disaster but I never knew these 3 men from the suicide squad put their lives on the frickin line!!!!! It was like going to war and putting your life at risk for potential dangers coming their way, real talk!!!!!😞😞😞😠😠😠 But great video Infographics show I actually learned something today.
Why it is sad? All of them survived and they prevented a terrible disaster
@@Titano_Tarocco I know but think about it, it was like going to war to protect your country. Well in this case protecting people as many as possible but some people died due to the exposure of radiation. Also some people were disabled at least what the Infographics show was talking about. Yes it was an honor for those men to do what they did but I personally don't think I would risk my life for something like that. It takes unique people to do this sort of thing though.
Riccardo Pietracito they actually didn’t, they all died and the infographics show made it sound like they were prepared, they were killed from radiation
@@impetu4302 What? The narrator clearly said that all three survived; two are still alive as of 2015, and one died of a heart attack in 2005.
DreamyWolf the infographics show actually isn’t right about most things, in their Air Force pilot video an actual pilot debunked the video, and a lot of what they said was wrong, this included. Those men died of radiation poisoning as there is no possible way they could have survived
I remember hearing about this....🥺 I remember a girl, who was on a t.v. show, was bald. She suffered from radiation. I was so sad. And, those men are so brave...
12,000 people used to live here now it's a ghost town
-cpt. mc millan
Even in Germany my Father, while working, was told to go inside even if its just raining a bit
Meine Großeltern haben den Salat, der im Garten gewachsen ist weggeworfen, weil es heftig geregnet hatte.
Legends.
Yeah I'd go down there.
I mean to save an entire continent then yeah.
Speedbird 118 I would feel obligated to go as well.
The continent of Europe is no small place
They actually had Spare Torches, They were powered by Friction, it was explained in the HBO Series.
Some people might call them a suicide squad, but they are true heroes.
God I’m so grateful those guys risked their lives like that.
0:21 wait a sec
"50 thousand people used to live here"
While the joke was funny, Pripyat and Chernobyl are separate towns. The video writer/narrator got them mixed up.
@@Scroggit perhaps reading a but on the subject would help you out. Pripyat was built in the 70s and was built for the workers families. Chernobyl was founded in the 1100s and has been constantly populated since then. That is why you see different population figures. Chernobyl = 14,000 and Pripyat = 50,000. As someone who has visited Chernobyl and Pripyat, I'm pretty sure they're 2 separate places.
Hey Infographics Show, You guys should also cover the Bhopal Gas Tragedy.
Without those three men. I won’t even be BORN.
Two of those guys are still alive
modern warfare intro opens up!!
Cpt.macmillan:
Fifty thousand people used to live here now is a ghost town.
I read that both of them are still alive as of last year, when they finally got some recognition for their efforts.
I think all of us in Europe should really appreciate these guys most of us wouldn’t have been born without them
You guys are getting literally amazing at editing these videos.. bravo. Your channel is so worth the subscription, AND the Bell. (There were also the men who discovered the Elephants Foot)
yeah, they got the entire video wrong the three men lived. two are still alive today.
Ananenko, Bezpalov and Baranov. You died for millions, and millions of people will remember the 3 of you forever.
Not dead yet, at least 2 i mean
