Which is the biggest accident in the world?
The immediate death-toll of the Chernobyl explosion was 31 people (Wikipedia claims 30) — 2 killed by debris and 29 killed by acute radiation sickness. A sad day for sure for many families, but pales in comparison to the 2,259 deaths that occurred and were registered immediately after the Bhopal leak.30 people

There is consensus that a total of approximately 30 people died from immediate blast trauma and acute radiation syndrome (ARS) in the seconds to months after the disaster, respectively, with 60 in total in the decades since, inclusive of later radiation induced cancer.The Fukushima event has been rated 7 on the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale, the same level as the 1986 Chernobyl accident. Even so, Japanese authorities estimate that radiation released at Fukushima is only 10 percent of the amount released from the Ukrainian plant.

Is Chernobyl still a dead zone : The zone has become a thriving sanctuary with natural flora and fauna with some of the highest biodiversity and thickest forests in all of Ukraine. This is due to the lack of human activity in the Exclusion Zone and is despite the radiation.

Is it safe to go to Chernobyl now

Is Chernobyl safe to visit Chernobyl is now safe to visit, with very low radiation levels similar to those on a trans-Atlantic flight, but it is subject to very strict regulations. It is only possible to visit the Exclusion Zone with an official Chernobyl guide.

How many Chernobyl survivors are still alive : Currently, there are few left – only 120-130 people. People who lived in Chornobyl before April 26, 1986 were evacuated and now live in many cities of all Ukraine.

Notably, the reactor designs are completely different and to date, the public health consequences at Fukushima are much less severe. Although some damage to the uranium fuel is expected at Fukushima Daiichi, there have not been releases of radiation into the atmosphere at the levels seen during the Chernobyl accident.

"Compared with other nuclear events: The Chernobyl explosion put 400 times more radioactive material into the Earth's atmosphere than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima; atomic weapons tests conducted in the 1950s and 1960s all together are estimated to have put some 100 to 1,000 times more radioactive material into …

Is it illegal to go to Chernobyl

Chernobyl is now safe to visit, with very low radiation levels similar to those on a trans-Atlantic flight, but it is subject to very strict regulations. It is only possible to visit the Exclusion Zone with an official Chernobyl guide.Experts warn that the land surrounding Chernobyl is so toxic that the radiation will not decay for thousands of years. This area, called the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ), is a 2,634 square-kilometer circle that is now hostile to the life it once fostered.Visiting Chornobyl in 2024

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, the Chornobyl zone is still closed to regular visitors and tourists.

Illegal access to the Exclusion Zone is prohibited and will entail administrative and criminal liability! It is forbidden to deviate from safe routes, deliberately lag behind the group and ignore the guidance of the guide. Our official routes are safely considered and tourists can visit the Exclusion Zone.

Did anyone in reactor 4 survive : Alexander Yuvchenko was on duty at Chernobyl's reactor number 4 the night it exploded on 26 April 1986. He is one of the few working there that night to have survived.

Is Chernobyl safe now : Chernobyl will be habitable again in about 20,000 years due to the long-lasting effects of ground absorption of radiation. Visiting Chernobyl is now considered safe, but there are still risks associated with touring due to the structural instability of the ruins.

How many died in Fukushima

Nobody died

Did anyone die as a result of the Fukushima accident Nobody died as a direct result of the Fukushima nuclear disaster. However, in 2018 one worker in charge of measuring radiation at the plant died of lung cancer caused by radiation exposure. In addition, there have been more than 2,000 disaster-related deaths.

Areas to the north-west of the reactor plant received high levels of contamination, especially in the prefecture of Fukushima. Almost no foodstuffs in Japan are still contaminated today, with wild boar being one exception. Radioactive material continues to enter the water used to cool the Fukushima reactors.The Fukushima event has been rated 7 on the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale, the same level as the 1986 Chernobyl accident. Even so, Japanese authorities estimate that radiation released at Fukushima is only 10 percent of the amount released from the Ukrainian plant.

Is Hiroshima safe now : Today, the city of Hiroshima explains on its website, the city's level of radiation is “on a par with the extremely low levels of background radiation (natural radioactivity) present anywhere on Earth” and has no effect on humans (here).
