I actully found that a few days ago since a game was based off what happened there.

That website had some creepy pictures though,the town looks normal enough. But knowing all that radiation is there chills me to the bone.

That was amazing. I've never even heard about it before.
Absolutely Chilling to say the least.
I'd love to go there tho.

A brilliant read... the desolation of that place and the hypocrisy of the government are brought out brilliant photos and her subtle, dry humour. Good find Mr Mass...

An aid worker once came to my school - I cannot remember if it was primary or secondary - and said that working in the Chernobyl area was a terrible experience: So lonely. They said that sometimes, they were unable to help people when levels became too high and they simply had to walk away. They couldn't explain to the children, but they just had to leave them...

So sad.. the pictures at the end were very disturbing.

Yes, brilliant, but really spooky... and quite disturbing, thinking about it. But thanks for posting. I found it very interesting.

There was something on the History Channel the other night about Chernobyl but I barely even recognised it as being the same disaster. They really seemed to play it down.
None of the devastation came across.

I think this girl has been there a few too many times

She seems to enjoy the high radiation levels a lil too much. I don't know, but if it were me I think I would just stay away.

Although, I can see the allure to it in terms of the ghost town feel to it. I mean, me with my late night cemetery and other haunted places visits and everything

_RED_ stuff
