Now that the dust has settled, can we all accept that he was stitched up by the government and the KGB, that he was simply following instructions and wasn't informed of the fact the RBMK reactor had significant design flaw, and that ultimately, he did nothing wrong?

>wasn’t informed of the rbmk having design flaws
Neither was just about everyone else involved. This is the USSR user, and it was trying to show the potential future it had planned starting with Chernobyl as quickly as possible.
>did nothing wrong
Highly debatable, he decided to go ahead with the test without the failsafes or even proper procedure after all the warnings were made about doing so. Regardless he was playing with fire and got burned in the process.

They were so far out of the parameters of the test that even if it had worked they'd have had to re-run it anyway. Should have just said "fuck it we'll run it tomorrow when those fuckwits from Kiev aren't whining about power levels."

He decided to go ahead with the tests because of pressure from higher ups and the fact he was expressly assured that it was impossible for an RBMK reactor to explode. He would clearly have acted differently had he known such an event was possible.

>Akimov knew shit was dangerous
>D'atlov forced him to proceed anyway, until boomboom
>Akimov died while repairing damages
>D'atlov wrote book on how he dindunuffin and how the reactor was akshually inherently flawed

>he was a cowardly little bitch who wouldn't take responsibility
Yeah, that about sums it up

In Dyatlov's mind he had two choices:

1. Move the test and get scapegoated by higher ups and possibly shitcanned
2. Do the test and present bad data

There were literally no downsides to option 2 in his mind because he wasn't informed that his doing so could cause the reactor to explode. How is that his fucking fault that the system was insanely corrupt?

He did plenty of shit wrong but the designers of the nuclear reactor didn't do their job by making it idiot proof

Either way you don’t fuck around with a potential nuclear bomb right next to you when it's clearly violating the safety rules.

>potential nuclear bomb
Literally nobody perceived it as such.

This is ultimately the only right take after the last episode. Dyatlov is obviously not blameless, as he tried to do a test that had failed multiple times before with a bunch of green boys who told him time after time that they had no idea what they were doing. But at the same time, he was the most experienced person working there that night, though he could manage everything, and if shit hits the fan, he still had AZ-5 at the end of the day. Except he didn't.

The faulty reactors are much more at fault than Dyatlov.

Was the test carried out successfully on all other rmbk reactors?

At least he didn't die of meme radiation like a little bitch

>leaves reactor running on low power for ten hours
>doesn't think of xenon poisoning
>doesn't recognize xenon poisoning when it happens
>doesn't realize having 200 output with all rods out isn't highly irregular
>runs test anyway
He did his part pushing the reactor to the brink.

Every nuclear reactor on earth is designed explicitly not to explode even when pushed to the brink. Blame him for fucking up the reaction but you can't blame him for an explosion which shouldn't have any reason to occur in a properly designed nuclear architecture.

>t. Anatoly Stepanovich

Where did you guys get the idea dyatlov was blamed for the accident? He was only sentenced to 10 years. Someone responsible for thousands of deaths due to negligence would get life or death in the soviet union

>Nuclear bomb
But RBMK reactors can't explode

I don't think so. Bryukhanov was so hellbent on doing the test just because of the implications it would have for all reactors in the country. That's why Fomin says that if the test goes well, they'll probably promote him and bring him to Moscow.

You mean 31 deaths, comrade.
You're treading on dangerous ground.

I destroyed the soviet union, you're welcome.

I've just realized that series shows him refusing to cooperate or provide any helpful information to Khomyuk while in reality he was the one who saved computer data from the power plant before everybody left control room. They really did him dirty in the series.

He was just a product of the Soviet authoritarian system of might makes right.

>D'atlov wrote book
Is it translated to English?

I like how everybody is an expert after episode 5

The real life Dyatlov saw graphite on the ground not once, but TWICE, and still insisted to crews and higher ups that the core was intact.
