A man snuck into Fukushima's Exclusion Zone

Be prepared to load pictures... website at the bottom

Never seen before photo of the fukushima exclusion zone. When i enter the red zone, i can feel a burning sensation in my eyes and thick chemical smell in the air. before i went there the authority told me that i need a special permit to visit this town and it take 3-4 weeks to get the approval from the local council,, well too much bureaucracy bullshit for me..so i just sneak in the forest to avoid cops on the road ...AND IT WAS AMAZING !!!!!, I still remember what is like to only have a GPS and google map walking in the wood at 2am in the morning to get into the town of okuma,futaba and namie.
Have you ever wonder what is like in fukushima exclusion zone now ??? . to feel what is like to be the only person walking in the town when you have 100% full access to every shop and explore??. when i was young i always had a dream like this, If i'm alone in a supermarket i will eat all the chocolate up XD ....
everything is exactly where it is after the earthquake struck this town . the reident started to evacuate the town when tsunami warning came in ....hours later the fukushima daichi power plant exploded that lead to harmful radiation leaked.
The radiation level is still very high in the red zone. not many people seen this town for the last 5 years...is like it vanished ... i can find food,money,gold,laptop and other valuable in the red zone....I'm amaze that nobody looted this town clean. unlike chernobyl the entire town is been looted clean. this is the difference between chernobyl disaster and the fukushima disaster

Hope he had a guiger counter with him

 

[DEEZUZ]

thats fucking awesome.. I love that type of shit...

I understand that the resperators will help with the dust in the air but seriously shorts and sometimes no gloves??

Your body can absorb radiation through exposed skin

Risky move to get some awesome shots though. Wonder what levels of radiation are floating around there though. Would be interesting to compare it to the likes of Chernobyl

I was thinking the same thing. SHORTS?!?! Aren't you supposed to remove and destroy clothing after being in a radiation zone? I don't think this dude is going to be sitting in his tub with a filet knife removing the skin from his legs. Then again having skin on his legs might be the least of his problems.

Fucking B-I-N-G-O

You can do a quick decon with rinsing and what not, but that wont stop the absorption that already occurred. Plus if he had any small cuts on his skin that just increased his chances of absorption and contamination.

Well that can't be good. Might as well wear shorts and a hoodie.

He popped some iodine pills shortly after, it's all cool brahs, lol.

Follow up story... Man pukes up blood and dies.

...or

Follow up story... Man's wife has three headed child.

The iodine only protects your thyroid, and it doesn't do you any good to take them after you have been exposed either. lol

man i coulda mailed the dude some MOP gear

 

[Mebot]

Dudes got some weird ass feet. Why would you walk around a contaminated area in shorts and sandals?

 

[smokiechicago]

man i coulda mailed the dude some MOP gear

MOP gear is expensive and I still wouldn't go there I think even with MOP gear.
Would you?

 

[Rent Free]

in full MOP yup it would be worth it.

 

[03GTGreen]

Cant believe its been 5yrs already

 

[Spivitz]

I'd be concerned walking around any contaminated zone in full gear let alone shorts.
Cool pictures though

I'd be more worried about the actual level of radiation in the general area. Even if it was a couple hundred mR/HR (which is quite a bit) he'd have to be there a pretty long time for it to kill him or have adverse effects on his body.

I believe OSHA allows 5000mR/Yr and Astronauts usually get over 20,000mR per space shuttle mission, there's a lot of radiation out in space.

Kind of expected this to be a pokemon go story.

That is pretty cool for what it is. I've seen a ton of pictures of Chernobyl, but it takes a little different path when you see an abandoned city that hasn't been wiped clean of any of it's contents (aside from the people)

 

[Chet Donnelly]

Looks better than half the neighborhoods in Chicago!

Only 19,995 years to go. Buy now to get ahead of the rush.

From what I've seen the exclusion zone isn't a radioactive wasteland by any means...it really depends where he was. I'm with most people, probably wouldn't go through in shorts and sandals, but as long as you're watching where you are going, it should be fairly safe...hell, they are letting journalists basically up to the Chernobyl site now...I'm sure there are localized "hot spots" but it's not a blanket zone of death like some would make you think.

 

[rdsnake]

Where is that Google Earth picture that showed how much leaked into the Ocean?

 

[Flyn]

That is one scary picture.

Shows how any kind of large scale atomic attack would contaminate the planet.

Let me get that bottom, second from the left magazine.
