So the information everyone need to get is that nuclear power is inherently safe (safer than windpower per MWH generated), unfortunately the majority thinks the opposite. The result is that we're missing out on a great, effective, safe and enviromentally friendly energy source.

It's not just Chernobyl that scared people, it's 3 mile island and all of those bomb explosions in the desert where we hand soldiers a pair of glasses and asked them to look at the light. It all adds up to public misunderstanding of the science and engineering. Last edited by aerokubectl; 06-08-2019 at 10:51 AM.. |

Show us real studies. A large number of people that lived in Pripyat are still alive today. All of these studies are inherently biased because most of the basic ones look at cancer rates amongst a certain group of people in the same area, but what is the control? If everyone was "affected" then what are you comparing to? You can't compare to another country or a different period of time because the number of variables/features(Machine Learning) are VERY large. |

Regardless, I’m well aware that many objects give off a certain amount of radiation, and can be exposed to radiation by routine activities such as flying. But I don’t confuse that exposure vs. a nuclear meltdown. You might, but I won’t. Last edited by The Libertine; 06-08-2019 at 11:17 AM.. |

Great movie in general! But he made, of course, precisely for the western audience.
In Russia, there is an expression "Развесистая клюква" in French "sous l’ombre d’un klukva majestueux" or in English (but wrong) - highbush cranberry, cranberry tree. In fact, it is an expression denoting fictions, false stereotypes, distorted ideas and absurd inventions about Russia. These are all stamps about Russia - about bears, frost, vodka, communists and others. And in this film all these stamps are at every turn: vodka, comrades, meetings, soldiers, naked miners (hee hee), strange that there were no bears... Separate respect to filmmakers for the comparison of Soviet soldiers and Nazis - very cute. Well, the most important thing that I understood from this film is that the western audience will now be almost certain that everything that happens in the film exists in Russia and now. And it should sow icy fear in the soul of the viewer |

The radiation levels are higher closer to the reactor, but there are also hot spots all over the town from the radioactive "dust" in the air falling in certain spots. It is like you can walk to your neighbors house across the street, but if you walk to your neighbor to your right you will get radiation. There is in some cases no rhyme or reason why the "dust" fell there. So many places you can now just walk through, but there are so many dangerous hot spots. They have tours and all on set paths. As long as you are on the paths you will be fine, but if you deviate from any of the paths even a little you start to hear that eerie tick tick tick tickticktick. |

Realize a lot of people (in the US as your comment is pointing out) can discern the difference from actual truth and when things get romanticized for viewership and media. The show is great as most people in here agree. The podcasts with the creators also indicate not everything is 100% accurate. Prime example being Emily Watson's character. |

Sure, but there are nuclear power plants in lots of other countries (including USA).

No. Everyone I've met thinks this is 1:1 of how it all occurred. They don't even realize the female character wasn't real...forget about the fact that the whole court thing was staged and fake AF.

You know what you should do? Go and start an online petition to HBO how they should rewrite the whole show to your truthful and perfect standards. Don't forget to go to every youtube clip about the show and voice your opinions there too. Where it matters I wish you success in your endeavor as the salt levels in your blood are laughable. Good day. |

To counterbalance your observation: I don't know anyone that watched this and didn't realize it was historical fiction. |

Binge watched it over a couple days, meh. About the most enjoyment I had out of watching it was trying to spot as many GOT actors as I could. I'm glad I read about the dog shootings here first so I could just skip those spots, that was all fantasy bullshit anyway. Why they had to make up a female character to be the hero of the story...oh never mind, yeah I do.
