Post other Chernobyl kino here.
Vid related is a great documentary on the liquidators and how fucked they were in the aftermath. Sheds light on how bullshit the claim is that only 50 or so people ever died as a result of the explosion and its fallout.

In Soviet Russia, you have no choice. A lot of people died during clean-up. Even soldiers were brought to help. A year in Afghanistan or a month cleaning up Chernobyl, many chose the shorter job without knowing what entailed.

also parts were filmed in capital Vilnius

Not until you vomit or your skin starts coming off.

Texas believes a lot of things but one shouldn't take them at face value. On the flip side, one of the bro-est Americans I ever met was a dude named Austin that came from Dallas.

Like a sunburn that goes through your entire body, including bones
It tastes like metal too, which is why they said so twice

Old enough to read

severe radiation exposure can cause a metallic taste in your mouth
nuclear reactors have control rods that, when inserted into the reactor, slow the reaction down or outright stop it. they work by absorbing/slowing the neutrons down so they don't hit other fissile fuel atoms. this inhibits the nuclear chain reaction

You can taste it apparently, radioactive iodine

metallic taste
tingling on the skin

but thats only when its extreme levels

>I know it blew up but I want to know the specifics of what is going on with the metalic taste and the rods and everything. I feel like a brainlet watching this
metallic taste is is from exposure to radiation, people who get radiation treatment from mouth cancers experience the same thing, to a lesser degree of course. the show portrays the firefighters experiencing it because we as the viewer know its a sign of exposure, but they're oblivious to it because they don't know what's really happened.

Some user told me that most liquidators didn't actually died in the following month/years and instead has somewhat early death but nothing major like the other people who were present but didn't do anything so dangerous, was he right?

Can you rephrase that

Rome, Venice, the Alpes, Tuscany, Sicilia, etc... Plus the best food in the world, and the most kino language too; I wouldn't mind being Italian even if it meant having to watch Chernobyl kino a month later.

I thought most of the liquidators must have died very soon after the event, but that user told me it wasn't the case at all and many of them got to live lengthy lives

Hmm, so it just vanished? Never landed anywhere in rainfall or anything?

The photographs of the Elephants Foot are from 10 years after the incident, you'd need quite a bit more exposure to receive a fatal dose at that point.

With that said, plenty of men were sent to their deaths just to deliver reports on what was happening, not to mention all the firefighters.

thats a crazy looking fleshlight

Padova/Rovigo?

A nuclear bomb caries a tiny fraction of the radioactive material contained in an ordinary nuclear reactor. This doesn't make nuclear reactors inherently dangerous, but the radiation fallout is certainly much higher if they do explode.

Was this good? I want to watch it but only if it is historically accurate

Well the initial blast area is certainly radioactive for a while but if it just exploded and didn't cause a massive crater then yeah it just vanishes pretty fast.

Well everyone speaks english so there's that. Other than that it's pretty good.

>according to the UN
lmao, watch this documentary, it's way higher than that among the liquidators who were working at ground zero. The government never even kept track of or checked in with the hundreds of thousands of exposed workers after their job was done.

'Long-term health impacts of atomic bombs are NOT as dire as we think, claim scientists '
'Average lifespan of survivors was reduced by only a few months'

It seems decently accurate so far.

So the 'nukes' didn't explode?

You think HBO subscribers would watch somehting with subtitles in 2019? Kinda annoying that they have a mix of british and russian accents though.

What else could they claim? We experimented on civilians, sowwy? Cancer skyrocketed in the region.

>yeah it just vanishes pretty fast.
Almost like they used normal explosives then?

user, countless studies from all over the world have made all sorts of mortality and cancer incidence comparisons, but the evidence simply isn't there.

I watch this shit with subtitles anyway, sometimes accents are too thick or sound mixing is too shitty to understand what actors are saying. Or maybe my ears just suck.

*causes World War 2 with the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact and the support of the Spartacist rebellion*

>I think those two nukes exploded way above ground
and they were both less than 100kg of radioactive materials, chernobyl was hundred of tons that was spread over a vast distance and contained different isotopes with a MJCH longer life which is why nuclear waste has to be buried and sealed in a way where it can't leak or anything for ages.

I don't know why but everybody seems incredibly ignorant in it to make the good guys seem more intelligent or righteous. Other than that it's great.

>I don't know why but everybody seems incredibly ignorant in it
Pretty sure that's because everyone was very ignorant about it. They entire situation got handled the way it was because most higher ups severely underestimated what was happening until it was too late.

>*causes World War 2 with the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact
I'm pretty sure WW2 was caused by Britain declaring war on Germany.

Did America send troops in to sift through radioactive debris? The fucking Russians closed off the city, lied, still held outdoor parades as not to "cause a panic" and did not inform other nations. Nations in western Europe the fucking radiation cloud blew over. The entire fucking incident happened because the state is not responsible for jack shit so no one cared about safety and the workers were fucking inept. This entire disaster was 100 percent avoidable and yet millions of fucking innocent people were affected by radiation. Also what the fuck does anyone else have to do with this? If you killed someone would you go tot he cops and say oh oh buy that guy over there killed someone too so how can you be mad at me?

Why did the guys skin turn read after her looks into the fire? Why did the fire fighters hand burn AFTER he dropped the graphite and if it wasnt even hot?

How is it that if the place is so dangerous you can still go there. People have been going there every year since the disaster. They built a giant conrecet sarcophgaous around it ffs, they even kept the other reactors working for years after! People still live there and they recently built another sarcphgaus. Theres countless videos of people going there. Theres even photographs of people standing next to the elephants foot.

Where did you get this transcript?

good job not even reading the post you faggot. No one is defending anything the two things are simply incomparable. But if you want an explanation as to how the bomb ended the war faster you would have to educate yourself on the fanaticism of Japanese soldiers during the war. There were common slogans like "100 million dead before surrender" Some Japanese soldiers did not surrender until 30 years after the war ended. There were mass suicides etc etc. I can't really see how you are comparing a bomb used in war time to a shitty reactor that should never have existed and multiple mistakes leading to huge clouds of radiation being released over mainland europe for essentially no reason. You keep bringing up america but it has nothing to to with this incident. I assume in response to this you will mention america again somehow.

Extreme levels of radioactivity can be "felt inside" as you're basically struck with tons of ionizing energy.

But otherwise, no you can't feel it, you can taste radioactive iodine if present in the air in sufficient concentration though.

Oh and you can also smell ozone, there's so much ionizing radiation emitted that oxygen starts oxidating itself, creating O3, ozone, which is extremely corrosive on its own and can be tasted and smelled.

>Why did the guys skin turn read after her looks into the fire?
Erythema (redness) is one of the first signs of high-level radiation exposure.
>Why did the fire fighters hand burn AFTER he dropped the graphite and if it wasnt even hot?
That's how strong radiation works. It damages flesh on contact, behaving similarly to a chemical or thermal burn.
>How is it that if the place is so dangerous you can still go there.
The radiation levels actually dropped pretty quickly. Most of the radioactive material released during the disaster has a short half-life, so it fell apart within days to weeks, depending on the material. The wind also swept a lot of the radioactive ash away from the reactor, making the Chernobyl plant area less radioactive than some other places further away.

He was there.

Yeah but WHAT ACTUALLY CAUSES IT. WHY DOES IT HAPPEN. I would have thought he'd start blistering and melting. Nup just some flushing shit happens.

It is dose dependent. Also some of them had other injuries resulting from the steam explosion making it more than just radiation damage.

Nukes are an actual nuclear explosion, reactors are usually hydrogen explosions that just spread bits of the reactor over the area where a nuke is like 1kg of plutonium total

There are fewer molecules in ambient gas to become irradiated in comparison to dense metal.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_activation
> Neutron activation is the process in which neutron radiation induces radioactivity in materials, and occurs when atomic nuclei capture free neutrons, becoming heavier and entering excited states.

In soviet russia why would a doctor whos job is to induce labour need to know? In soviet russia reactors dont explode. You need to start thinking like a russian.

Also is that how slavic women give birth? They just propr them up on high chairs and leave them there to squirm through labour?

you understand that those explosions didn't spread the radioactive dust and dirt and whatever so much because they didn't explode on the ground?
an airburst explosion of the same size using conventional explosives also wouldn't kick up as much dirt and shit as a ground impact explosion. None of it would be radioactive in that case.

also, you CAN just take a trip to the Chernobyl/Pripyat area with a geiger counter, you're saying like it's an impossible proposition. Or watch a Youtube video of a person doing it.

What made you type up this post?

>and they were both less than 100kg of radioactive materials

>> Neutron activation is the process in which neutron radiation induces radioactivity in materials, and occurs when atomic nuclei capture free neutrons, becoming heavier and entering excited states.

Its so frustrating that I have no idea what this means. Ive tried to research the topic but it just leads to rabbit hole. In order to understand how a reactor works you need to know this that, how that worls, why this occurs. Fuck me dead I hate being stupid. Usually I can become an expert on a topic due to me curious autism but usually its involving historical events not nuclear fission.

Like what and why are control rods? What is the graphite used for? How does lowering them into the grphite slow or stop or cool it. I thought the uranium reacts with the graphite cuasding heat, boiling water this steam thus power. But apparently its the opposite. Why does the air and water turn blue?

I've seen pictures of wild horses there.

since i was properly educated theirs 3 types of radiation alpha, beta and gamma

alpha can be stopped by the human body and walls etc thats what caused the skin going red etc when he got a nice dose of it

gamma can i believe go a little further past the skin level maybe through walls it causes internal damage

then theirs good all gamma which only lead walls can stop this just spreads out and can cut through nuclei and dna causing cancer and shit like that

think the sort of shit that can cut through a woman's ovary cells and cause them to function abnormally which is why they had kids with two heads and shit like that

Iran, go away.

It's the same mechanism as sunburn: the skin cells are damaged to fuck and the body starts an inflammation response and also starts to kill off the damaged cells

Can't make this shit up

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_burn
>Acute radiodermatitis occurs when an "erythema dose" of ionizing radiation is given to the skin, after which visible erythema appears up to 24 hours after.
>"Beta burns" are shallow surface burns, usually of skin and less often of lungs or gastrointestinal tract, caused by beta particles, typically from hot particles or dissolved radionuclides that came to direct contact with or close proximity to the body. They can appear similar to sunburn. Unlike gamma rays, beta emissions are stopped much more effectively by materials and therefore deposit all their energy in only a shallow layer of tissue, causing more intense but more localized damage.
TL;DR: You don't melt from radiation. Even in strong doses, the reaction only resembles a bad sunburn at first. Beta particle burns are worse, but you actively have to touch strongly irradiated stuff for it.

If it is cheap and you have a lot of it, why not?

This is so fascinating. I wish I paid more attention in school, Thing is the way they teach it makes so boring. If they sat us down and said 'today your gona larn how radiation kills you' I would have paid attention.

Yeah. And as a note, sunburn is an indicator that you've fucked up and overexposed yourself to sun -- but at least it indicates that your cells are committing apoptosis and not allowing themselves to become evil rogue cancer assholes.

No way this post was sincere. Noone on this site can be THAT stupid

No they didnt they used uranium. He even says say on the trailer.
I dont understand though, burns are caused by heat. How can atoms burn you? Like I said the guy picks up the graphite and holds it and it doesnt sear him. Then ten minutes later his hand is fucked.

learning about this and chernobyl in school made me against nuclear power plants

not worth the bother

guys in chernobyl doing the clean up did i think 10 minute shifts in that time they would recieve a lifetime's dose of radiation but that will probably be seen later in the show

let me put it this way those firefighters their all fucked

>A nuclear bomb caries a tiny fraction of the radioactive material contained in an ordinary nuclear reactor.

An RBMK has 1,8% enriched uranium
A nuke has 80-95% enriched plutonium which is more deadly to living beings as it emits alpha particles, swallowing a microgram of plutonium is enough to kill you.

+ the supercritical state emits astronomic quantities of neutrons which, via neutron activation, will turn other materials radioactive

Don't understimate quantities, especially in nuclear physics.

See what I mean. Their skin is exposed, most of their body is not protected with lead. How did they not die on the spot?

google ionising radiation

>soldiers
And when you read this you must understand, all civilian men served in army and reservist soldiers. So they are basically civilians who were enlisted to clean up that mess.

lol

>let me put it this way those firefighters their all fucked
Yeah Im aware of the events and how they unfolded in regards to the response workers. But thats the thing how is it the firemen died immediately but the liquidators didnt.

>burns are caused by heat
user, sunburns are cause by SUNLIGHT not by heat. You can go to Everest where it's cold as fuck and get sunburned after 10 minutes without a mask

we did this in year 12 physics

They took shifts.

Plenty of them died of leukemia within a few decades, though.

>made me against nuclear power plants
Retard. This is most safest and based energy.

now it's a ghost town

>No they didnt they used uranium. He even says say on the trailer.

Graphite you nounce. Graphite is made of carbon juste like coal, has a crystal structure close to coal, it burns like coal

Graphite is literally a form of coal and burns when exposed to both oxygen and heat, that's what it did at Chernobyl.

Because using graphite as a moderator in a boiling water reactor creates a positive void coefficient : the more steam -> the more power generated -> the more steam generated -> the more power

And that's how you get a runaway situation and an exploding reactor core.

Control rods have material that absorb neutrons, so there's less neutrons flying about causing more fission events.
The graphite slows down fast neutrons, neutrons that are too energetic to cause a fission event. Most reactors use water, which functions similarly.
In Chernobyl the control rods were tipped with graphite, so when they got inserted they actually increased the reactivity and caused even more of a power spike leading to the explosion.

That makes sensenow. Wow this is so scary yet so cool. Imagine being being burned inside and out.

they wore special personal protective equipment and worked in shifts

the firefighters were out their for hours and in direct contact with irradiated debris with no ppe for this type of thing

>If they sat us down and said 'today your gona larn how radiation kills you' I would have paid attention.
I would prefer this way of teaching as well but it's too traumatizing for kids with a weaker stomach.

based aussie

Heat is a fancy name we gave to the reception of energy that can be felt by our body.

Heat = energy received
X-rays, gamma rays, infrareds and UVs can burn your skin as they trade some energy.

>burns are caused by heat. How can atoms burn you?
lmao
I dunno, how do atoms do anything? Maybe they're fire atoms. Or chili atoms.

Literally browse wikipedia, you inbred mong.

Ever heard of chemical burns? You don't need heat for tissue damage; hell, sunburn is actually also a type of radiation burn, caused by ultra-violet radiation. You can basically imagine radiation burns shown in the show as a particularly powerful sunburn. It can't kill you quickly, but a day or two later you will be properly fucked.

Really activated my atoms.

if it goes wrong you just lost a piece of land in your own country for 1000+ years

all these guys saying you can go visit and shit

all those people who visit sign waivers due to the radiation they will be exposed too and anyone going into the core is still wearing ppe and getting a proper dose

honestly more hyped for this than GoT finale

I didnt do physics i was literally too dumb. But Im bet I'll now more about it in a few days then anyone in my school did in a year.
Yeah but thats what I mean. Once your exposed your exposed. You cant wash it off, the particles flow through you and damage you at a molecular level. Everyone knows this.
Yeah but why? People have been working there for deacdes building the sarcophagus.
HE LITERALLY SAYS 'Every atom of Uranium is like a bullet' IN THE TRAILER. And from researching just quickly yes they did use uranium control rods.
>Because using graphite as a moderator in a boiling water reactor creates a positive void coefficient : the more steam -> the more power generated -> the more steam generated -> the more power

And that's how you get a runaway situation and an exploding reactor core.
Why would they design it that way?
What are neutrons, what exactly is fission events? I thought that raidation needed or was caused by unstable or fast moving particles?

i hated the fact in the end the guy was forced to have a look down

he's already told them the core has exploded what do they expect him to say after having a second look

change his mind?

how did they decide he would be trustworthy after saying its already exploded

>Yeah but why? People have been working there for deacdes building the sarcophagus.

they're referencing a famous line from cod 4 modern warfare

>Yeah but thats what I mean. Once your exposed your exposed. You cant wash it off, the particles flow through you and damage you at a molecular level. Everyone knows this.

Exposure is a metric based on strength and time. If you're cuddling up to a big chunk of uranium sure, you'll probably die in a few days. If you're working around it off and on for 30 minutes at a time slowly over a week, you have enough time to recoup your defenses and heal up before you get irreversible carcinogenic damage.

So your telling me that a small lead coat and a carpenters respitraotr is good enough for one to go out into radiation for 5-10 minutes and not die on the spot?
Ahuh
Have sex
Yeah but a chemical por acid burn will cause a clear and obvious reaction. Youll feel it, itll hurt like hell, it will sear and causing blistering. That guy picked up a brick off the ground with no ill effect then 10 mins later had a 3rd degree burn on his hand.

pretty horrifying
the constant relaying of misinformation would be hilarious if you wanted to play it as a comedy, but here it's just sheer terror

All I know is the guy with the fucked up Doc brown haircut has a freally gay voice.

>Why would they design it that way?

Because they wanted lots of power for cheap + a way of making metric shit tons of plutonium for their nukes
Safety wasn't a concern for the commies.

>HE LITERALLY SAYS 'Every atom of Uranium is like a bullet' IN THE TRAILER.

I hope English is not your first language, otherwise I'll have to call you a potato. You didn't understand at all what he said.

>And from researching just quickly yes they did use uranium control rods.

No they used uranium fuel rods, 1,8% enriched U-235 to be more precise
Control rods were made of boron carbide and graphite water displacers. Putting fuel in a control rod would be the most retarded idea ever.

Radiation is killing you at the atomic level so you won't feel it unless it's so intense you'd be dead in a few minutes anyway

Reminder that the only alternative to liberal democracy is some form of Stalinist despotism and that nuclear power is bad. Stop complaining.

Yes, this can already be seen in EP1 at the end when they are discussing the future and one guy claims 'the official state stance is that a world disaster level nuclear incident is not possible in the ussr'

It's probably only one brainlet who keeps asking the same questions

>You didn't understand at all what he said.

literally, i say again LITERALLY says uranium in the trailer. Check your hearing.

>And that's how you get a runaway situation and an exploding reactor core.

i can't remember how nuclear power plants work but if the fuel rods aren't cooled they will continue to do fission and with now way to cool them down they get hot

Much of the "heat" you feel around hot objects is actually thermal radiation.

Yes he said uranium, you caught that well Cletus. Now what about the context and the meaning of his sentence instead of extrapolating like a spurdo ?

Fuel rods, control roads point is theres uranium in there. Was.
>1,8% enriched U-235 to be more precise
Meaning?
>Control rods were made of boron carbide and graphite water displacers. Putting fuel in a control rod would be the most retarded idea ever.
Why and you just said they were made of uranium now your saying theyre made of boron carbide.

When he picked up the brick, all the cells in his hand got irradiated and started breaking down. 10 minutes later we see the effect.

at least he's curious and wants to learn something and didn't get the opportunity in highschool or higher learning

so good old 4channel can fill in the gaps with experts like you

Idiot.

This has to be some kind of elaborated troll or someone stole a third chromosome.

Why would he talk about uranium if it wasnt relevant. You even admitted there was uranium in the fuel rods. Dont the fuel rods get lowerd into the graphite causing fission and thus heat? Am i way off the mark here?

chernobyl is fine lad just come down for a quick visit and get a few snaps at the wildlife

>what are neutrons
jesus
they're one of the 3 components of atoms, the others being protons and electrons. the neutrons and protons are in the center (nucleus) and the electrons orbit the nucleus. protons have positive electric charge, electrons have negative charge. neutrons have no electrical charge.
neutron radiation means that there are free neutrons whizzing about and slamming into shit. when a neutron of sort-of average speed hits/gets absorbed by an atom of fuel (uranium or plutonium), that atom then fissions, splitting into two different elements (that have a lot of energy because splitting atoms releases energy) and other neutrons. those neutrons then hit other atoms and continue the chain reaction

>doesnt understand nuclear physics
>must be a retard

I guess I am then, not even mad about it. Now answer my questions.

I trust it will be it's HBO and sky

>neutron radiation means that there are free neutrons whizzing about and slamming into shit.
Ok. How does that happen if theyre inside an atom?

ftr the last part made sense, about fission. Im getting there now.

>Yeah but a chemical por acid burn will cause a clear and obvious reaction. Youll feel it, itll hurt like hell, it will sear and causing blistering. That guy picked up a brick off the ground with no ill effect then 10 mins later had a 3rd degree burn on his hand.
Radiation burns happen because your skin/flesh gets damaged by radiation rays or particles. With sunburn, it's the UV radiation emitted by the sun. With the burns in Chernobyl, you have gamma radiation (created by radioactive decay of atomic nuclei) or beta particles (electrons emitted during radioactive decay). With radiation burns, it takes some time for the damage to show because it damages the cells from the inside - how long depends on the intensity.

They got paid, it was volunteer but they wernt informed of the risks and many men did multiple shifts they wernt supposed to do so they could earn what was excellent money for the time and work.
Of course these men died. If they had been informed of the risks no one would have volunteered.

based everything is only ever worth doing if you're getting paid!!!!

That line in the trailer is nonsense. Don’t even think about it.

Like, 3 trillion atoms? As if that’s a lot? Come the fuck on.

Retard. Chernobyl is literally a tourist attraction these days.

So in other words a person could receive a full lethal dose of radiation and in a sense not even know about it until its too late.

If you are looking for more chernobyl kino to tide you over here is a documentary which covers basically what the next episode will. Its old ruski footage and chock full of atmosphere.

Dude calm down. Go read a damn book if you are really curious instead of shitposting.

Three mile island was made known to reporters and the general population as soon as it happened. The soviets suppressed knowledge of Chernobyl, even among the soviet population, for two days until radiation was detected in Scandinavia giving it away, and even then they downplayed it.

That's the difference between the West and the commushits.

How did they manage tofilm all that if it was so dangerous? Also you see guys take their masks off and stand outside on the roofs and not die. Some explain this.

Which shithole are you from ?

What's hard to understand ?

He said "uranium atoms are like individual bullets" to explain the dangers of radioactivity to retards, remember that Legassov was the head of the scientific delegation and had to explain as simply yet detailed as possible to the party members.

The fuel rods don't move, only the control rods (boron carbide which absorbs neutrons) do to accelerate or stop the reaction

pic related, it's from an RBMK reactor scheme, you can see that when the control rods are inserted, the neutron flux (which causes the fission reaction) gets blocked by the rods more and more to slow down the nuclear reaction

Attached: picture116.jpg (840x560, 63K)

Yes, that's how it usually happens. You generally have to receive a dose fatal multiple times over to feel the effects instantly, although some people have survived that too.

You should pirate Chemistry for Dummies and read the chapter on nuclear stuff.

Splitting the atom means it's not inside it anymore.

It's not about not understanding reactor and nuclear physics, it's about you not understanding anything at all, even simple sentences.

new bread this one is auto saging

Nobody dies from radiation instantly, user. Tissue damage takes days or even weeks to show, and that's not mentioning the fact that most people in Chernobyl did not receive a fatal dose. Only about 50 people did.

Im not from a shithole country. I just didnt learn jack shit in school because Im probably an autist. I learn more from places like this. I ask specific questions and get specific answers. I dont need or want to know the bullshit. I fill in the gaps in my own time with my own reserach not what the asshole teachers tells me to read in a text book written by some other moron who was probably a commie in uni. Curriclums dont teach shit. Kids who do well in school aren't smart, they can just regurgitate bullshit in tests and aren't scared of failing. I wasn't that socially developed in HS. Moving on.
>What's hard to understand ?
All of it. Ill have a look at your pic and get back to you.

kek

Sufficiently acute radiation exposure shows symptoms in minutes.

So whats all the hype then? It obviously isnt that dangerous.

go to this thread this one will be deleted soon.

So like do they harvest atom for neutrons and then gather them all up and let them smash into each other or something?

>t. Dunning Kruger

hurr durr im pretending to be a moron on the internet hehehe tehehehehe

>Why did the guy who propped up the door start bleeding everywhere while the other two guys who actually went in didnt.

He was physically pressing his body against a structure that had absorbed an enormous amount amount of radiation.

>Nobody dies from radiation instantly, user.

You theoretically can if you receive colossal amounts of it, your central nervous system gets shredded by beta particles and neutrons or at least gamma rays, you fall into a coma and die very very soon after.

Though it would probably require more than 20x the lethal dose in an extremely short amount of time

+ have to remember that your body doesn't absorb 100% of the radiation it's exposed to, it really depends on what parts are exposed and the kind of protection you got.

I don't think standing close to an active fuel rod (emit more than 20 000 Sv/hr) would simply make you vomit.

People exposed to more than 15 Sv in a very short amount of time typically lose consciousness minutes after.

Then if the radiation is so intense you'll just burn as the quantities of energy received are are high enough to generate heat (that's what happens inside reactor cores)

Correct, but the user was asking why they stood outside and didn't die. The answer is that you can't die from manmade sources of radiation that fast, even if you hug a plutonium core (although you will faint pretty quickly in that case).

I could be wrong here but I believe if the radiation is strong enough you just pass out more or less straight away and at that point you are effectively dead, if not biologically dead. You pass out and then the organ melt down occurs.

yeah you'd become a soup very soon as the proteins making your cells membrane get damaged.

Radioactive Ebola on Steroids.

i feel like the death tolls are actually much higher but ussr successfully covered up more than the 31

They stopped counting mid-may 1986 so very likely the reports are complete bullshit
