Gotta ask my friend again for a link for it. But, it was awesome couple folks did a ride through Cherynoble on their motorcycles. They couldn't stop put feet on ground because well you know. I was like whoa how f'd up would that be to break down in a nuclear wasteland!

I'll ask him to e-mail it to me and I'll link it up here.

Yeah, she's awesome. 
Nuking her ovaries and facing lung cancer (etc.) from not wearing a respirator... to bring us sweet photographs.
Course, there are squatters living there.  Oh well. 




My wife grew up close to there.  Not exactly Pripyat, but close enough to remember the black rain afterward.  With the isotopic iodine fallout.  One of her friends died from playing in it. 

Look up the Elephant's Foot.  It's so hot, they estimate that you'd live about 9 seconds after exposure.  Or the flows beneath the cooling jacket surrounding the core.  Or the "glowing forest" around the site.  Or the pictures of the early responders putting out fires on the tar roof, wearing only white cotton overalls and paper masks. 
And what it took to contain it. 
Pretty intense stuff.

Course, if you wanna see something REALLY intense, look up the "Chernobyl children".  It's basically a small subculture of Eastern Europe; kids exposed to the radiation with incredibly severe developmental problems.  Mutation out of the ying yang. 
There's film footage of them floating around somewhere, can't remember the site.
