But what really happened? And why did it send shockwaves throughout the world?

  1. 1986 yeah yeah what can it be Mabey it is a rock star beat boom! boom! YEAH!!!!! This is 1986 very much!!!!!! But what can it mean????? People say it means a power of ROCK STAR BEAT WHAT CAN IT MEAN ohhhhhhhhhhhhh noooooooooooo there back for the war ? hope you loved the song

  2. I knew of a tv show on Netflix that had this story in it, it was full of towns that was contaminated by nuclear waster and had to be evacuated

  3. I've been to Chernobyl and know people firsthand who've died from the nuclear fallout. People still live in the exclusion zone, and wildlife now flourishes there. However, official maps of the area showing the radiation fallout conveniently show Kiev as having not been irradiated, but this is absolutely false and beggars belief, especially when taking into account virtually all areas around the city were irradiated, and given the high prevalence of many rare and aggressive cancers found in people of all ages there to this day. This report is not entirely accurate and missing a lot of context.

  4. Unfortunately, genocidal thermonuclear WW3 is not too far away, please follow the latest news at "Countdown World News" page of RKK Book website. At the website you can purchase the book which tells about the kind of events which are heading our way if greed and ego-centrism in the world affairs continue their reign. Humankind has been playing with nuclear fire since 1945, and the bottom line is, if we continue doing so, this fire will consume us one day. Now is the time to turn to God-given wisdom and make the only right step as it might be too late to do so tomorrow. We have responsibility to take a good care of our children and ensure they have a future.

ECO 92 Earth Charter"]-> statement – "The present vast overpopulation now far beyond the World carrying capacity cannot be answered by future reductions in the birthrate due to contraception, sterilization, and abortion, but must be met by the reduction of numbers presently existing. This must be done by *whatever means necessary." 3 Mile Island; Chernobyl was not an accident; neither Fukushima. And now China 2021 ?? Mark 11:22

  6. Very sorry but wouldn't common Sense say to take super cooled tankers or trains and fill up them with the radioactive material and bury it very very deep where they got it from?

  7. Too much radiation we have to go around. There’s a packet of radiation all-over this area. Absorb too much, you’re a dead man.

    I’m here because of Call of Duty 4 All Ghillied up mission. Sad story Chernobyl ?

  8. Just reported today…fission reactions have increased in an inaccessible chamber by 40% and could lead to another runaway reaction…

  9. Thanks to the firefighters and army who participated, Save the People. Thank you so much. May God have mercy on them, Khaled Al-Otaibi, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
