The Chernobyl nuclear accident is one that haunted many of the survivors until their painful deaths from radiation poisoning. Just what went wrong that day at the nuclear facility that would change the lives of so many? Check out today’s epic new video that breaks down the events that led to one of the biggest nuclear accidents in history!

Question, if you cant catch radiation form a cleaned person, then why the zinc casket?
3:15 Legasov's explanation in Ep5 of Chernobyl series, on how the RBMK reactor works is just beautiful, clear, simple and easy to understand.
The plates didn't bounce though. Also Respect for those who's lives were taken by radiation… it is a very dangerous thing and unfortunately we learned it the hard way
I heard the radiation levels were only 3.6 roentgen. Not good, not terrible.
Is it weird to say that when I think of Chernobyl I wanna play fallout?
I still remember Trump saying only one person has ever died from nuclear energy
Vnemanye, Vnemanye!
Love this chanel !
Bro the deaths from ars what the worst
Where's the movie about the Chernobyl suicide squad???????
The thing people don't realize is that the suicide squad, The miners, are literal heroes. It doesn't matter if those who started it deny it. The man who went in to do that basically saved the rest of the world by stopping the radiation from hitting the rest of the world.
Good thing the guys at three mile island had better equipment and protocols
tf is hour 0??? 💀
But where is Khodemchuk?
One thing that isn't making sense is how they say that the wife couldn't get radiation from her husband who was already cleaned. If that is so, why did they say he was still radioactive and buried him in a zinc coffin?
Sorry, but your research seems to be from nothing but the tv show. This is riddled with inaccuracies.
every government is the same….
One key thing that is rarely mentioned in any of these documentaries is that in the USSR/Russia (unlike in the West) nuclear reactors do not have a containment vessel. The reactor has shielding around it but no concrete containment vessel. This meant that the explosion, once it occurred, allowed radioactive material and gasses to immediately escape into the open air. The arrogant Russians thought their RBMK reactor flawless – no accident could happen. The Three Mile Island reactor did have a containment vessel and therefore there was extremely limited release of radioactivity.
Bros teaching the better than my 1 hour science class 😂
Great video! Thank you ^^
And I couldn't help but recommend the book Midnight in Chernobyl by Adam Higginbotham, it's a very interesting read, full of information but easy to digest, when I was reading it I literally couldn't stop, it also contains some photos and schematics, not the most important part but it's always nice, and I found myself turning pages back and forth to consult the RBMK-1000 schematic while reading the book. I'm not the best at describing stuff but honestly if you have some time and a little money to spare buy the book, it's truly amazing and also heartbreaking.
scary
Idk why I'm so obsessed with chernobyl even it wasn't very nice
The Chernobl Nuclear disaster should be your selling point as to why all countries across the world should decomission their nuclear weapons programs.
It is clear that the operators were very poorly trained in handling emergencies.
Not great, not terrible…
This is ukraine's fault
At 14:00 or so, what qualifies the creator of the video to spout that opinion?
