Pripyat, Russia

Some of you guys have watched too many sci-fi movies. Its all been in the open for years what happened. There are no Scuds. It wasn't a military installation.

Wow. Per the video, the Soviets claimed a few dozen people died, but estimates could be as high as 400,000. Quite a large range. I saw the KiddofSpeed site years ago when it first came out, the pics of the radioactive slag are downright creepy.

Maybe trenches where the graphite blocks thrown out from the explosion were buried? I've heard they were buried but I have no idea where.

I've heard horror stories of the chopper pilots that dropped concrete, boron, and lead on the burning pile in the early days of the disaster knowing they would be dead men.

a tour of the chernobyl 'facility' followed by a pickled toad and vodka lunch and then straight home on the 'vomit comet'-possibly more fun than a vasectomy,with similar effect.
