Just watched Chernobyl. What other vidya besides STALKER deals with Pripyat?

There was a racing game with a chernobyl track in nintendo ds. It was kinda meh to be honest.

Is the guy still alive?

>When this photo was taken, 10 years after the disaster, the Elephant’s Foot was only emitting one-tenth of the radiation it once had. Still, merely 500 seconds of exposure at this level would bring on mild radiation sickness, and a little over an hour of exposure would prove fatal. The Elephant’s Foot is still dangerous, but human curiosity and attempts to contain our mistakes keep us coming back to it.

Still somewhat deadly, but yes, it apparently will last 100 years more.

Yeah your right not thousands try 20 of thousands

i don't know, i read about it back in 2014 and the guy was 65 then and working with the all the people involved with building the nsc. he was retired due to health problems from exposure but it was stuff like bad eyesight and he was no longer allowed near the really hot areas of the plant anymore.

Back in 1986 it would give you a lethal dose of radiation within 5 minutes of standing next to it. Now it's more like an hour for a lethal dose.

Can arma be by gf? can arma be my onahole? can i sail on a warship and just delete anyone

When this lump was peak-level radioactive, how exactly would you die? I understand what’s been said over the years but I’ve never been able to imagine/picture dying by standing next to something like that.
Would you just get cooked alive, like in a microwave? Would your cells just liquify and bubble and melt? I don’t get it

Yes.

So does that mean you would be able to touch it?

Yes, legends-- i mean, science-- say the ghosts still haunt it today
oooOOOoooOOOooOoooO

Radiation damages DNA within cells, either outright destroying them or mutating them so they develop into cancerous cells. You see cancer ravage a person over many years of their life? Imagine that but all condensed within the span of a couple days. You're literally being broken apart at the cellular level: bone marrow, organ tissue, skin, hair etc. decaying. Eventually something essential would probably rupture or the brain would just shut off.

>Would you just get cooked alive, like in a microwave? Would your cells just liquefy and bubble and melt?
Yes, and Yes.

No, in 1996 it was an hour for a lethal dose. It's been 23 years snce then.

radiation affects you at the cellular level and its starts a chain reaction in your body. cells can't replicate any more or it starts rampant mutation (cancer) throughout your body. your body reacts with vomiting, diarhea, hair loss, massive bleeding, etc. etc. some isotopes get "stuck" in your body because things like your thyroid absorb and hold them.

I'm retarded and don't get why plutonium and uranium are so good, or why they're even radioactive.
I do get that fusion (used in today's nuclear weapons) is literally what happens on the sun though.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_radiation_syndrome
Basically seizures, vomiting and death.

That guy got every kind of cancer and died.

You could always touch it, it's just incredibly hot and radioactive, to the point where you'd probably want to leave the area if you even managed to get close due to feeling sick.

So what causes the ghost?

There is nothing wrong with the elephant's foot. It's completely safe. Our-...the place where it's located is a fun tourist destination too! Thousands visit annually!

Seizures, aren't lethal, and neither is vomiting. What is the mechanism of death? Cardiac arrest? Hyperthermia? Diabetes?

Is that a mop?

Look up "Hisashi Ouchi", a guy who survived radiation exposure the longest. A word of warning though, the guy suffered a lot.

The radiation is causing him to phase between dimensions.

Why we still dont get a propper survival horror game in Chernobyl? It would be kino to be running away from mutant animals and radiation.

No, it is far worse than that.

unbelievable-facts.com/2016/12/hisashi-ouchi.html

It's less scary when you read that it's only slightly warmer than room temperature at this point.

Better question how radioactive is the shit around it. Like how radioactive is that mop

the first photographs of it had to be taken with mirrors since it destroyed the first camera they rolled near it

Could be many things. Radiation literally destroys the DNA in your cells, causing them to break down. Eventually the wrong clump of cells gives in and one of your organ ruptures, a connection is severed, etc

I wish the CNPP was scary and spooky instead of tedious and infuriating. Fuck the Monolith.

Idiots used a big ass flash camera on it

What's so dangerous about radioactive materials lmao. Like nigga, just walk away lmaoooo

So third degree burns and multi-organ failure. Fun.

i guess you can say he got a big ouchi

Fuck I shouldn't have laughed at that.

Your cells would basically stop performing the functions required to keep you alive. What kills you in the end just depends on which vital organ fails the fastest.

Damn, sounds like a radical way to go.

>Upon arrival at the Mito hospital, Ouchi’s skin was red and puffy but he showed few other outward signs of his condition. Then doctors began tested his chromosomes. They had “shattered like glass.” They could not be identified or arranged. Without chromosomes, his cells could not regenerate and his body could not heal. His white blood cell count was 0.
What in the actual fuck

Like this, probably.

Im sure they would have to make a whole new category for the burns he got. His skin liquified and his muscle started to fall off the bone.

at peak radiation you would experience a combination of disorientation/burning/pain before you were boiled to death

the doctor's keeping him alive should have been put to death. Preferably through strangling. Fucking soulless Nip fucks

>cells literally breaking apart
>lol lets try saving him

I mean I can see some attempts but after a week or two they should've thrown in the towel and just put the man out of his misery.

How did the 3 divers survive going to turn the valves?

Yeah, radiation is a bitch when it comes to over-exposure.

oh sure i love videogames discussion here

NOT

They werent trying to save him, user. They were keeping him alive so they could study what happens at that level of radiation expisure.

Did you know without radiation, there wouldn't be video games?

It's not great, but it's not terrible either.

Radiation damage is an entire field of medicine that we know nothing about. Ouchi was an idiot who did something he shouldn't have, damning everyone around him.

Hell, did you know that most of our trauma knowledge is thanks to the hundreds of crusaders who were inspected after their deaths? The same goes for most diseases. We *need* this knowledge.

No Hiroshima, no anime, no JRPGs, no Yea Forums.

Organ failure. Your cells are dying like crazy, eventually your organs will just stop working.

Are there some form of protection like hazmat suits or something that can somewhat negate radiation and save you from getting microwaved?

fusion is actually when atoms squeeze together so tight that they annihilate and release most of their potential energy, it's something that hasn't been achieved on earth (yet) but happens all the time in the form of stars

fission is when a molecule slams into another molecule and breaks it apart,

the reason why plutonium and uranium are so good at this is they have highly unstable atoms that are easy to break apart, when you cause a deliberate chain reaction of fission it cascades into an explosion. under controlled circumstances with slightly less radioactive material you get a nuclear power plant, but if it isn't maintained properly you get meltdown, like chernobyl or the damaged fukushima plant

The picture is not Ouchi but the story is legit.

Is chernobyl posting the new cave posting?

So is STALKER a good game or what?

Then where is that pic from?

The water flooding the basement had earlier been drained by firefighters. Some remained, but at its deepest it was only about knee-high. Three men, Ananenko, Baranov, and Bezpalov, entered the basement in order to find the valves that would allow for the draining of the reservoir. They would become known as the famous Chernobyl divers, however perhaps more surprisingly, they would survive.

All three ‘divers’ wore two dosimeters, the valves were found relatively quickly, and they retreated unharmed, for the most part. There are images of two of the divers in hospital, but they do not look particularly ill according to Leatherbarrow. Leatherbarrow said that two are likely still alive, though the third died in 2005 following heart problems.

Whats the point of studying that when only .1% of the population will ever experience that much exposure

How horrifying. Hopefully they learned something useful enough to justify that level of suffering.

Unfortunately, no. If you ever wondered why we still have international discussions over the ethics of nuclear weapons, it's because they're capable of doing things like this to people.

That user is lying, it actually is Ouchi.

Not even nuclear weapons can do this to somebody, user. The amount of radiation Ouchi received was equivalent to standing right next to the Hiroshima bomb when it went off. He received 17 Sieverts of radiation. The fatal dose is 8. You can't even get that much radiation from modern nukes.

Oh i see. I thought they had died.

And he would probably have preferred to be right next to Hiroshima since they were basically vaporized.

Awesome, let me know when someone dies from a seizure.

For what it's worth, he was put into a medically-induced coma well before his intestines started to melt, and the barrage of heart failures one month into the nightmare meant he was effectively retarded.

Ionizing radiation has enough energy to knock electrons out of your atoms, this causes all sorts of things to happen to you and one of the them is your particles are now vibrating much faster which is how heat works.

What happens if you just took a bite out of the elephant's foot and wallowed it

The Chernobyl plant was a disaster waiting to happen.
>The reactor's coolant was also its primary neutron absorber, which meant that if the machine got too hot and the coolant started boiling, the reaction would just go even faster
>The control rods had neutron-absorbing boron in the middle, but had neutron-moderating graphite at the tips, which meant that the reaction would actually speed up when initially inserting the control rods
>The control rod channels also had a fluid damper (i.e. the shit that makes hinged doors close slowly), meaning that it took a whole 20 fucking seconds to actually insert a control rod fully
>And the fluid used as a fluid damper was also a neutron absorber, which meant that as you inserted the control rods, the fluid was displaced, speeding up the reaction even further

The elephants foot is a mix of multiple melted materials one of which is actual nuclear fuel. Nuclear materials are extremely toxic to the point that breathing in relatively small amounts of them can immediate death.

You would probably experience convulsions of various intensity before death

>Ouchi
what an unfortunate name for that situation

*chuckle*

>Even those cities became places you could live in pretty damn quickly.
relatively speaking those bombs used very little nuclear material and being airbursts the radiation was spread over a massive area very quickly. they used less than 200 pounds of nuclear material and were also very inefficient; only a fraction of it actually underwent fission. chernobyl was hundreds of tons of it burning nonstop for a week and spewing radiation into the atmopshere and among that was very long lived isotopes not present in the bombs.

My father used to work with Sources and he told me about how something like this happened to a guy he knew when they were handling... I want to say Cesium-137? Could've been Cobalt-60, but the point is they dropped the Source and it slapped his hand. He lost his fingers just like that.

liver failure and maybe a heart attack, your blood stream will clog with dead cells

I wish humanity would have advanced further than fission reactors and developed fusion reactors already.

It's true that the operators went full retard (e.g. removed every control rod, even the 10 emergency control rods that were never supposed to be removed), but the reactor's design was equally as retarded.

The reactor building is, yes. But there's 2 separate containment buildings constructed around it at this point, they just finished the second one recently, it's a huge dome.
There's still a lot of toxic shit in the soil though, so it's not good for humans to live there for prolonged periods of time and breathe in disturbed ground and water contaminants.

As far as the reactor corium, one formation of it pictured there in OP, it's still highly radioactive and will be for a long time. Corium basically acts like a very slow moving lava, kept in a shifting state by radioactivity, rather than geothermal heat like volcanic lava, and the corium at Chernobyl has been developing a crystaline structure on it's surface that's slowing down it's radioactive decay, so it could be much longer than predicted before the material inside the reactor building is safe, the containment dome might need to be maintained for hundreds of years.

So what are you asking in first point then? It's like saying "it's not the radiation that killed you, it's the seizures". You asked what the mechanism directly leading to death was. Hypovolemia due to a gunshot wound is a cause of death.
But whatever mr "did cardiac arrest kill him"

Actually it is tasteable. If you suddenly experience a metallic taste despite not having anything in your mouth, it's probably radiation.

>fish, birds, insects with compound eyes and fucking deer can see ionizing radition

what the fuck for nigga? how the fuck was this useful to you?

What?

ionization

Is that lava in the picture?? Can i get damaged from looking at this picture wtf

Don't blame me, that's how pathologists write the "mechanism of death" in the report. At least someone here gets it. Also, cardiac arrest is not the legal definition of death, brain death is, to whatever retard tried to correct me on that.

Imagine a guy with a really high powered machinegun shooting special bullets that pierce shit phenomenally well, and he's peppering a city from a hill. The buildings are your cells and the people in it are your strands of DNA. Now he's not really going to do very much damage outright, because even though he's shooting a lot of bullets it's not very likely he'll hit someone. Getting a serious enough dose of radiation, however, is like having thousands upon thousands of these guys all firing into the city. Sure, some people will get shot, but that's small potatoes compared to what we're talking about here with something like the Elephant's Foot. Imagine people getting shot while driving, and crashing into other people as well as buildings. Imagine some buildings getting shot so much that they simply start to collapse, killing more people and felling more buildings in the process. Imagine the fires caused by gas leaks and subsequent explosions, the prison breaks normally kept in check by guards, the severed phone lines and networks that simply stop working. Imagine the riots full of people who are just trying to keep everything under control and protect what they can. Imagine the complete chaos.
That's how radiation kills you. It doesn't melt or burn like fire, it just rips you apart at a cellular level until eventually you either cause your own destruction or just fall apart.

At least that's the layman's way to describe it, the precise medical shit that happens is far more horrifying.

isotopes with the longest half lives are usually the safest to come into contact with, as long as it's not ingested and exposure is limited

It's something called "Corium," an alloy unique to nuclear meltdowns.

or brain cancer

>he looked without wearing safety goggles
I'm so sorry user, it was good knowing you.

Nope. Just look up Elephant's Foot

It's both. Irreversible cessation of circulatory function, or irreversible cessation of brain activity

Actually, every state recognizes cardiac arrest as legally dead, but only 44 states recognize brain death as legally dead.

Melted concrete and metal.

Sometimes, sulphur sticks to surfaces, and you have no way of knowing it happened. Imagine that you are walking through the forest and decide to take a break sitting on a log. A couple minutes later, and the sulphur is already eating through your pants and flesh.

This kind of accident is somewhat common.

Pretty sure that was the fuel and reactor bits being tossed into the air and not actually the taste of radiation

Nah, I've heard it's pretty miserable. Pays good, but the job is boring as shit and the training to get it is incredibly difficult. Oh, and if you fuck up, everyone nearby dies.

Haha what if you stuck your dick into it while pretending it was a giantess' foot stepping on you haha

Where is this fucking common, nigga?

Nope, other victims of radiation poisoning have described the same metallic taste.

They basically had total cell death throughout their GI tract, and this would cause all the blood vessels in your body to expand in reaction to the trauma, to send more white blood cells there, and you'd die of low blood pressure.
There are faster ways to die of radiation, but victims at chernobyl weren't receiving enough sieverts to experience them. It's hypothesized that some people at Hiroshima may have died this way, but if your body takes in 50-100 sieverts you can experience massive cell death in your heart and lungs, and nervous system and just die near instantly, within a minute.

Your dick would literally melt off.

No it's a different kind. All of it is electromagnetic but the very high frequency ionizing radiatiom is the really harmful stuff.

Thankfully for some reactions, they don't last long.

The ice sun turns into a water sun and feeds the nearby grass sun.

I mean the sun is basically a constant explosion that puts the entire of humanity's energy output to shame on a daily basis and there's a countless amount of similar stars out there, some of them so large they rival my disgust.

So really, its amazing water doesn't explode spontaneously and we're not all permanently on fire from all the oxygen.

God damn it why did I laugh at this

Pretty accurate. The otherbreason you use isotopes of uranium and plutonium is that the binding energy that holds the protons and neutrons together in cells is on a bell curve.
I.e. hydrogen is super low and after peaking at iron it drops off. Therefore when you split the heavy elements you get a net gain in energy

>made me wonder what's the point of having those suits if they do nothing
Because there's a big difference between getting critical doses of gamma radiation which gives you cancer in three years, and breathing in alpha particles which liquefies your intestines. The hazmat suits can't stop the radiation, but it can stop some of it.

You're so cute trying to bring in half life into this but wording everything in a way that its clear that you don't understand what exactly half life is.
I'll give you a tip, "life" is only a part of this term.
I'll give you another one, if you reduce a 100 life sentences of a serial killer to 50, he still ain't getting out alive. And even if you reduce it to 25.

I think we're going to get the body horror in the next two episodes.

the good guys all dying of a slow agonizing death while the higher ups laugh their asses off.

Alpha particles can be blocked by a sheet of paper and beta particles can be blocked by a thin sheet of metal and lead only partially blocks gamma rays so they usually just use rubber suits as protection and avoid long periods of exposure to gamma rays

No that's a different thing. This is wave territory. Just think of it all as different frequencies on a spectrum. High frequencies can kill you near instantly or give you cancer. Lower frequencies allow this message to get to you, your screen to display it and your eyes to see it.

Radiation suits like the ones in video games don't really exist. Anything with enough shielding to protect you from really dangerous levels of external radiation would be too heavy and stiff to move in. The suits you see radiation workers, first responders, etc. wearing are there to keep radioactive dust and gases off of them. Protection from high external radiation levels is achieved through careful dose monitoring and keeping people out of areas that aren't safe to be in.

The closest real-life thing to a functional radiation suit is this thing, it protects the most radiation-sensitive areas of the body with a heavy layer of shielding. That doesn't mean you can just waltz into a hot area while wearing one, though, it's still damn risky and there's a good chance you'd still get sick, but it gives you a better chance of recovery.

PULL UP
TERRAIN

Roof guy followed by fireman, I think. Mr. Roof was breathing in those alpha particles while fireman was surrounded by gamma radiation, it's going to hit Mr. Roof faster than Fireman.

Also, spoilers because it's a real story, Fireman is giving off radiation even while he dies. His wife is allowed to see him but advised not to touch due to aforementioned radioactivity. She touches him anyway, and he irradiates their unborn child, which fucks it up and causes her to miscarriage hours after they bury him.

Fireman is already melting, they showed him collapsing

Not surprising since Bangkok smells like shit no matter where you go.

No. I killed him. My pride killed him, and now it has consumed me as well.

When you put it that way, it doesn't sound so bad. But the idea of something not just killing me, but being imprinted on my genetic code is disturbing. Maybe a couple hundred years from now mankind will harness energy like the Sun, but i'm not worried about not being alive to see the failures along the way.

But yeah he'll probably live to 80

That's the Goiania Incident. There have been a few others like it too, I know of one pretty bad one in Thailand where a medical equipment dealer left a few old teletherapy units sitting in a parking and scrap metal collectors managed to get the source out of one of them and broke it open, and you can guess where things went from there.

The first in an extremely horrifying way. Imagine meeting the only person for you, and then constantly realizing that on day one of you will die and it will be equally horrible for the survivor.
Having this love as made my anxiety worse, keeps me up at night and going on shit sites like this trying to cope. Both of us have this anxiety from it. The saddest thing I would dare never utter aloud is I sometimes wish I was alone again because I was less worried and accepted death. Now I am terrified because I know when it happens all good that I have found and made ends. Being human is truly hellish.

Is light exposure what killed it? What causes the rupture, radiation destroying the membrane?

> “The first time we came, the dogs were running around near their houses, guarding them, waiting for people to come back”, recounted Viktor Verzhikovskiy, Chairman of the Khoyniki Society of Volunteer Hunters and Fishermen. “They were happy to see us, they ran toward our voices. We shot them in the houses, and the barns, in the yards. We’d drag them out onto the street and load them onto the dump truck. It wasn’t very nice. They couldn’t understand: why are we killing them? They were easy to kill, they were household pets. They didn’t fear guns or people.”

And this is why we need to prioritize migrating to multiple planets as a species if we want to survive in the long term. The more places humans live, the higher our long term chances of survival are.

"An unstoppable, excruciating pain seethes through your body, from the skin down to your bones, and you’ll bleed from your nose, mouth and rectum. Your hair will fall out; your skin will tear easily, crack and blister, and then slowly turn black. Your bones will rot, forever destroying your ability to create new blood cells. As you near the end, your immune system will completely collapse, your lungs, heart and other internal organs will begin to disintegrate, and you’ll cough them up. Your skin will eventually break down entirely, all but guaranteeing infection. One man from Chernobyl reported that when he stood up his skin slipped down off his leg like a sock. At high doses, radiation will change the very fabric of your DNA, turning you quite literally into a person other than the one you were before. And then you’ll die, in agony."
