Where the fuck/what the fuck had Dyatlov been in that he'd such shit before and worse?

whats worse feed water or sneed water?

i feel you.
This show beat the shitty new season of GoT

He was in denial.

Same could be said for any WWII movie, yet nor I nor anyone will be complaining whenever there's some war kino out there.

i think irl he was working on a nuclear sub and he fucked up there as well and got irradiated for his troubles

Someone posted in one of threads that he'd worked on subs or something like that and had been radiated prior to Chernobyl

Neat. So was the graphite super ultra radioactive and that's why the dude was burned right off the bat or was it actually that hot?

Many did.

well, pic related did, for a start. He died of a heart attack in 1995 iirc

It was the radiation that gave him a nice tan.

THERES NO GRAPHITE TO CLEAN UP

I was talking about the fire fighter and his hand melting off. I kinda figured it was rads but i didn't think it's do it that quick

And those chuckle fucks were ordered to look directly at it.

Clearly that's impossible, I suggest you go take a look yourself.

from what I gathered they didn't think the reactor didn't meltdown beacuse "ussr stronk" but because they literally thought it was impossible (obviously it was very possible, especially with the MORONIC decision to pull out all but five control rods)

The disaster itself is caused by human stupidity and negligence, the aftermath and disaster management is where the gommies covered everything up

A bit outside of this show's scope, the test being conducted was designed to check if the station will continue to function without external power source (used for water pumps).

SOMEBODY GET THIS HOTHEAD OUTTA HERE

Only 31 people died. Had some potato kids they are trying to pin on the incident and some cancer, but the rate depends what source you use.

It's extremely inaccurate.

Black smoke wasn't constantly pouring out like that, it was more like a stream of steam, especially after the first day when they began an operation to suppress the fire with sand.

yeah thats what always gets me about chernobyl

the whole literal reason the catastrophe happened is because they were testing security measures so that a catastrophe like that never happened - literally nothing would have occured if they just did the usual power plant thing instead of memeing stupid shit (or getting dabbed on by KGB if user is right)

also why were they doing a security test like that in the middle of the fucking night? one would assume such tests are done in the most controlled environment possible, instead we get a couple of night shift chucklefucks going for a security test to whittle away the nights boredom

31 is as high as the meter goes...

The limitations of the RBMK reactors were kept secret from the operators, because it was considered a state secret - so while the "just add more water" guy was obviously wreckless, he also wasn't properly trained on the weaknesses. Most of the operators were just procedure followers, rather than actual engineers. They had a very limited understanding of what was going on.

I don't know for sure, but I imagine they did the test at night because the power grid draw was less.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the nurse that asked for the iodine pills is going to be a mary sue.

I agree, lack of quips truly did the show a disfavor.

The main reason Chernobyl happened was not because of the testing. They did the testing before multiple times. It's the basic design of the plant that what was inferior from the start. Like that sarcophagus they built after catastrophie was meant to be build in the first place during the construction of the plant.

They didn even have those right G-M meters

Correct. They were not following procedure. But they didn't know why the procedures existed or how important they were. They just knew there were procedures. They were also told that the reactor could never explode, and their poor education on some level led them to believe that.

I don't mind that, it's the quote that perplexes me.

Hands down one of the most awesome scenes in television. Don’t get me wrong I do think this show is getting shilled here but that scene made me completely freeze in fear. And I mean awesome like the original meaning, when I don’t know what the inside of a reactor looks like and nobody but those couple of ding dongs actually do, fucking terrifying.

Friendly reminder to enjoy this show before this happens.

>The biggest and most artificial contrivance is the creation of a fictional character, a Belarusian scientist played by Emily Watson who takes a suspicious radiation reading in Minsk and magically, preposterously takes over the story. She’s everywhere at the same time, forcing herself onto the investigatory commission, sitting in on meetings with Gorbachev, raiding government archives, interviewing engineers in their hospital beds, single-handedly uncovering the secret history of the faulty reactor. (If Mazin wanted a prominent female character to leaven a story dominated by men, why did he leave out Maria Protsenko, the architect who designed Pripyat and supervised its evacuation?)

Nah...it was human error. They fucked up in multiple ways to get the reactor into such an incredibly unstable condition. I posted this in another thread...

* Test to see if latent steam in turbines could power water pumps in the 45s gap between grid power loss and diesel generator takeover.
* The test required a specific power output.
* They were supposed to power down the reactor to test levels slowly.
* Electrical grid needed power so they kept it running high, then dropped it fast to stay on schedule.
* The result was Xenon poisoning and the power output dropped way too low.
* Rather than abort the test they disabled safeties and pulled the control rods.
* The Xenon poisoning was severe so they pulled damn near ALL the control rods and the power output was still low.
* Rather than abort the test they proceeded AGAIN.
* RBMK reactors have a positive coefficient of reactivity. This means water coolant is a control and as water is lost reactivity increases.
* They cut grid power to the pumps.
* Water pumps spinning but slowing down.
* Steam voids forming in core as water flow decreases.
* Feedback loop: Reactivity increases > Xenon burn and more steam > reactivity increases.
* Somebody scrams the reactor.
* Here's the real WTF moment: RBMK reactors have GRAPHITE TIPS on the control rods. Graphite being a FUCKING MODERATOR and not a control.
* As control rods drop REACTIVITY INCREASES EVEN MORE. Remember the feedback loop above.
* There's enough heat to deform the control rod channels so they stop 1/3rd of the way.
* Xenon burned off, there's nothing but steam in the core, and graphite is stuck a third of the way in = literal fission bomb.
* There were two explosions. Evidence indicates that one was literally a fissile event. The core blew itself apart, blew the top biological shield off, and once oxygen rushed in anything that could burn did burn.

Not an expert on radiation, but I did a bit of quick research.
First, since I can't find a radiation chart in roentgens, we'll convert it to sieverts. 1 roentgen an hour is 2.7 sieverts a second, which is about 9,720 sieverts an hour. As you can see in this chart, just 8 sieverts guarantees death, with the destroyed core putting about 50 sieverts every 10 minutes.
But obviously nobody was standing next to the core, so let's look at the radiation levels listed for different rooms on the wikipedia page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster
The control room was the most safely secured, so people like Dyatlov only got about .04 sieverts per hour. Most other places only gave off around 10-50 sieverts per hour, meaning everyone else is pretty much fucked. Fuel fragments give off roughly 150-200 sieverts, which is why the guy who grabbed the graphite got his hand fucked so fast.
Might've fudged the numbers a bit, but wikipedia also has the same dose levels in roentgen. Everything I've mentioned so far is 3-5, 500-5,000, and 15,000-20,000 r/h respectively, with 500 roentgens usually being lethal.

I do wonder why they didn't include the fourth guy.

Apparently there was an older man with the two interns who, like Dyatlov, had experience from his time as a submariner, and he realized right away that the three of them were fucked. When they left, instead of just bolting down the hallway and abandoning the one who had been holding the door open like they do on the show, apparently the one on door duty wanted to go have a look too, but the submarine guy stopped him from going, thus saving his life since he apparently survives to this day.

same but with my only friend. he thinks he is super smart but has no taste in anything. didn't even watched the trailer said hmmm sounds boring, and thats with 90% of shit i recommend him. FML I can't socialize and my only friend is a fucking autist I met 15 years ago in school.

Ahaha. There's a very obvious tell (you can't really call it an error, since it would have been way more expensive to green-screen this) when you look at the commieblocks in the distance. Though you won't notice it unless you grew up in one back in the bad old days.

You weren't allowed to enclose your balcony back then. It ruined the uniformity.

Testosterone isn't his issue at all, memes aside. He just hates his work so fucking much, and is in constant pain from his arthritis, that anything that makes him think upsets him. He numbs himself with shit.

Legit good cinematography.

Good memes.

Based and redpilled

He explained all of this in his book. They lacked the proper documentation about the reactor, they weren't told about the reactor being unstable at low power so what he deemed safe and logical (pumping tons of water in the reactor while removing the rods) was in this case, a deadly mistake. Also the test was ordered by Fomin, Dyatlov had to apply the orders, that's how it worked in the USSR, even if you claim something is unsafe, no one would believe you unless an accident happens.

Many physicists later said that Dyatlov was simply a scapegoat for the soviet authorities. The Russians were absolutely proud of their RBMKs that they simply couldn't acknowledge they had an absolute trash reactor design.

In fact, the RBMKs were designed in such a way that they could even be scaled up.

Yeah, they planned on making even bigger RBMKs as they simply had to stack more graphite on top of the existing cores to make them bigger (RBMKs still are to this day the biggest and most unsafe reactors in operation)

>interns
lol, I meant trainees. Dunno what happened there.

Sure but what does it matter if all the buttons are accurate when a fanfiction woman character is there to show all the pesky men how to run her nuclear facility

thats more than likely not whats going to happen comrade

Your clearly delusional Comrade. RBMK's cannot explode.

He saw things you people wouldn't believe.

Dyatlov wanted it done because he thought it would be his ticket back into grace (he had previously fucked up a sub reactor, and his son died of radiation-accelerated leukemia).

I am so ready for it to happen though. I thought the nurse was a spy which would have been interesting but instead these articles make it out to be that she's just the genius good samaritan who takes down USSR all by herself.

Not even Russian.

I think her response is one lots of people will have “ugh boring history shit about a boring nuclear plant no thanks” but when you look at it more closely you see the human drama as well as how freaky radiation is to deal with and its just cool. Plus we both really like dark shit and this feels pretty dark to start off.

Any examples of Russian butthurt? Gotta check the rutracker comments.

because there's a new generation of idiots who think that soviet times were great and there were no problems

They were committed to their duty.

Our resident russian patriot, for a start . The man has been with us since thread #1

Haven't rewatched it but it's been on my mind a lot.

Because it's a show about Russian failure, not Ukrainian. The Russians know that in the USSR they gave the other states a shafting, and that the bureaucratic failings were from people who were mostly Russian.

um sweedy ukraine is make pretend country
we annex now

The second explosion was basically a fuel-air bomb caused by hydrogen bursting out of the reactor vessel and reaching self-detonation concentration with the outside air. Remember that all the remaining water inside got thermochemically converted into hydrogen and oxygen when the reactor pulsed.

Great post

Believe it or not at least one of the other reactors was operational until 2000. So yes, they kept the non damaged ones running.

nice try hohol

Are Ukrainian prostitutes really that great?

...

Slavshit that was born in USSR here

You forgot the perfect sets, clothes, cars. Even the mannerism of the clapping scene was perfect.

It's unironically true.

this is a /pol/ colony now

hell they even nailed that control room perfectly

Absolutely based.

I'm Ukrainian and I have no idea. The good ones probably all emigrated.

Do you have any cute twink boys I could import?

I don't believe you.

link where?

seriously how are you cucks THIS triggered about this show? You spend literally all of your time talking shit about everyone else but one thing comes out about your ex-government and suddenly all you cucks start losing your minds.

based

Supposedly the ranking by total number in Europe is Ukrainian > Romanian > the rest. Don't know how any of them are since I would never pay for it.

All cute twinks getting killed in donbass, sorry

post pictures of your tits faggot

> No diverse cast
> No main characters oppressed people can look up to

Why bother watching this

No worries, man. If you ever get a change to talk to a farmer from the eastern bloc countries that operated during the USSR, do so. They have a lot of stories.

All the reason to hurry!

Not everyone is as dumb as you can’t learn multiple languages.

Never heard anything about Romanian hookers. I thought Czechs were a big deal?

I'm from the former RSR and I sometimes forget that not everyone is used to this shit. It almost "normal" sometimes.

Stories about them getting intimate with farm animals? Wtf are you even trying to say here?

most of the clocks are Elektronika 7 brand too and at the beginning the car you see the KGB watching Legasov from is one of those ones designed to look like a regular GAZ but has a souped up V8 engine in the front

But EVERYONE was oppressed in USSR

Whats the weather like in Nizhny Novgorod this time of year? Wait, dont answer, I already know it sucks.

You forgot something though

>turning down free benzos to watch kino on

Why get mad all of s sudden fagmo? It was 28C and mostly sunny today.

that is shit from india to the world?

Yeah one thing I noticed immediately was how genuine all of the furnishings and household items looked. It just looks sad. Depressing, cheap, boring and sad. So THIS is is the power of communism.

No. That the USSR sucked the eastern bloc countries dry of their resources, and used them to increase the standard of living of Russia. Farmers had their land seized, and if they refused, were imprisoned. The point I am trying to make is that they plonked this piece of shit reactor down in Ukraine because they didn't care about the people there, and they covered it up to save face because they knew they were demoralised by their unrelenting destruction of their pride.

nigger you realize that this board is literally lousy with Russian LARPs right?

No that would be this one

The experiment that was approved was fine. It was they way it was executed that was not. The technicians were really fucking around with the reactor to try and reach experiment parameters, when they should have admitted "nope we missed our window".

They're pretty popular all over West Europe. The Express published this in January this year: Police so swamped with Romanian trafficked prostitutes they close 'one brothel a week in one London borough'. I think Czechs are more into making porn than prostitution.

Because I know what you are.

They filmed it in Lithuania so it holds the atmosphere pretty well.

Lol that imaginary oppression what butthurt belters always cry about.

>he point I am trying to make is that they plonked this piece of shit reactor down in Ukraine because they didn't care about the people there
They plunked the same reactor near Leningrad, you fucking mongoloid.

That's a tsunami map and his Fukushima map is fake as well.

nah, that was all private initiative

Well I don't care, get mad all you want bitch.

When you have to give everyone the same thing, you won't be giving them Rolls Royce.

Shit tsunami you mean.

>fact
Was it a fact tho?

>also why were they doing a security test like that in the middle of the fucking night
it was supposed to be the previous shift to do the experiment, they were running late. One of the reasons for the fuckup.

>Because I know what you are.

he's still alive and he said that the socialist radiation is the best in the world

I know you dont. You know, I almost feel bad for you. Just knowing how much better every facet of my life is than yours, about how your miserable brainwashed mind cant do anything but spout propaganda about your countries shameful adventures in Ukraine. Youre basically subhuman and will never live a fulfilling life. Like I said, I pity you.

So during the disaster did they shut down the other reactors and then re-start them once things were a little safer?

What are you asking exactly dumbass???

Unironically, probably.

>little Tsarevich crying about how they never oppressed anybody
you're right, mother Russia is the real victim, here.

One of those were supposed to be to I just trying to understand what meant by that.

Haha I bet those bloated hohols in kotyous shat out the same epic mantras before getting hit by hard lead. Stay mad worm.

The fact of autoculture in USSR.
"Peoples car" that was a cramped Fiat you could only get either by sucking up to your workplace and wait a lifetime for, or pull in every under the table favor to get it on the black market, versus even the poorest americans getting a choice in which used car to get, from imports to land yachts

Why don't you ask the butthurt belter directly then?

I was going to. That's what I meant by 'one of those was meant to be for him'. I was posting to both for context. My post could have been structured better.

So no actual facts just more propaganda? Ok.

doing tests on a night shift with less people and not the best people was a big factor IMO
I worked in a factory before the big fuck ups always happened on nights.

what propaganda?

See, this is what im talking about. Even if you kill some retarded Ukrainians its irrelevant, the simple fact here is youre parroting propaganda like a mindless drone. On top of that youre stuck in a fucking hellhole. I pity you.

Keep in mind, im not Ukrainian, I could give a fuck less about them. Im just grateful im not fucked in the head like you, and have the freedom to go live an awesome life while youre stuck in a wasteland of heroin addicts, alcoholics and brainwashed subhumans being force fed bullshit all day with no other choice but to accept.

>i pity you

yes yes well done well done you know I am something of a physics expert myself

I'm asking about the "souped up V8" in a Volga specificaly , shit for brains. I already know a licenced Fiat copy was produced in USSR.

I unironically pity most of the world, especially brainwashed slavs who've been subjected to this bullshit for nearly a century now

Well that's a hella lot of cope coming from an impartial observer who doesn't really give a fuck.

But whatever fairytales gets your ravaged ass aslepp tonight, I guess.

WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME? I'M A NUCLEAR ENGINEER, FUCKER. YOU GO UP ONTO THAT FUCKING ROOF AGAIN AND DON'T COME DOWN UNTIL YOU SEE THE CORE.

Attached: reactor.jpg (582x354, 21K)

The V8 came from V8 engines reverse engineered from Buick or Oldsmobile or what ever engines Lend Lease trucks had in them.
At the end of Soviet Union there was experimentation with rotaries, some did end up police Ladas and apparently were fast enough to keep pace with the first generation of Western Imports(80's-90's low end models
I thought you were asking about the fact of life

*shrugs*

Your pity means fuck all, just so you know. And the more you say you pity someone like a parrot the more pathetic you yourself look.

I would really like to know what was going on in his mind for him to rage and yell like that at the man he's essentially just murdered.

So there were no souped up V8 in KGB Volgas and you just farted that out just because it sounded cool?

underrated redpill

Literally probably what I typed. I honestly believe that he believes the core is still there. I know it won't be in the next episode but, I kind of hope he sends him off on a treasure hunt to find the core

The original post I replied to was the one that mentioned "Souped up" V8s
There were Volgas with V8s
I pointed out that they were only "Souped Up" relative to rest of what SU had, nothing close to what would an actual souped up V8 be like.
What is your problem?

Fairytales? I can look at statistics and pictures and know where you live is a sad shithole filled with intelectually crippled, beaten down zombies. Ukraine is irrelevant, its always been an irrelevant country, especially to someone living where I live. Unlike you, I have actual shit to enjoy instead of shitposting about Ukraine all day in topics that have nothing to do with it.
Its more directed at the fact that your people have been reduced to what they are. Alcoholics, heroin addicts, mentally retarded freaks. Your country is devoid of beauty, of decency, its a dead end. If youre born theyre youre doomed.

The bitterness of Russian posters is always so satisfying to me. It really shows with how you guys speak and act. Hell just looking at pictures of your shithole cities I can see it on the faces of your people. Its sad, and makes me love my own life in ways you will never be able to comprehend.

Oh shit!

>*shrugs*
Is this how you get your (You)s?

i used the term "souped up" cause thats what a russian friend who saw this episode described it as
