- City 40, or what is today known as Ozersk, is a closed city in Russia that the Soviet Union created during the Cold War. City 40 didn't appear on any maps until 1991, allowed no outsiders to enter, and for a long time, no insiders were allowed out. It wasn't until very recently that the Western world has even become aware of Ozersk, and it took a brave documentary crew sneaking cameras through the heavily guarded gates for any footage of the city to escape.

This is the only narrator I want to hear on this channel NGL
Seriously! I will turn the video off if I don't hear his voice 😂
the woman from their other channel WHF is ok
Oh my favorite narrator is back!
It's clearly as bad or worse than Chernobyl. The primary difference being time/era. Chernobyl, despite so many soviet attempts, couldn't be hidden. All the horrors of Mayak date back to a time when a lot more could be concealed and was.
In mother Russia, city lives on you!
Special Disease sounds like the name of a goth metal band.
"special operation"
Please Bring Back Timeline!
People keep asking and its not gonna come back for a long time I'd figure
We have to wait for the 2010s to enter the cultural zeitgeist via nostalgia. They're not cool yet, it's the mid to late 2000s which is cool right now.

Why not the 1960s?
@@fannyphlapps 1960s works just as well as the 2000s
Haha! I loved the Plutonium joke. It even had a touch of Arnold's.
The confidence that you laid into the into PLUUUUU…..TOOOOO……NIUMMMMMM joke is the best thing I’ve heard in weeks. lol
Went to high school 60 miles from Hanford and we used to joke we had 60 seconds to live if it exploded. I also was invited as science enrichment to a couple of tours of the place. Wonder if I would recognize any of Ozersk? This was great info.

Really great video!
That part about Richland, WA was a surprise!
This town's situation and history is just really sad. The disregard for human life and the environment...so shit
All of the native Americans residing within the hanford site area have severe and debilitating ailments resulting from the US’s limited means of controlling what they created. There are zero efforts to help these people beyond BS state funding for eclectic pursuits.
Well, as you ask for subjects for new videos, here goes one: the true history of how the idea for the Original Kung Fu TV series *was not* stolen from Bruce Lee. Yup, there were different degrees of racism involved in the events, but the chronology of how Spielman-Friedlander wrote the first script for a film feature and it ended up as a TV series starring David Carradine because he was a better actor for that role is well documented in Matthew Polly's "Bruce Lee: A Life," and even in Wikipedia. It's a quite interesting story.
Not just drought lowered the water level. Radiolysis breaks the water into hydrogen and oxygen.
What about doing one on Oak Ridge in TN our own secret town.
"Welcome. Welcome to City 40.
You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining urban centers..."
was on my mind the entire time!
I mean there was some inspiration there
My thoughts exactly when he said City 40.
And I thought "who names a city City 17?!"... Wasn't too far from reality I see.
Instead of getting served a memory wiping drink when arrive you get served polonium tea if you speak up against the government.
A+ video!
Fascinating topic and video!
Fun Fact: We Built This City by Starship is on the radio station Los Santos Rock Radio in GTA V
The residents are happy in their city . . . . . Or else.
Really interesting video!
4:57 Sounds like a place Captain Planet's Duke Nukem can retire from villainy!
12:20 HEEEEEEEEEELL NAW! No way!
And still, we have no flyin' cars.
You do,they're called helicopters
@@thecrippledone3325 you know a funny word? Naugahyde..that's a fun one to chew.
Because Dante wouldn't sacrifice himself
The world is too fixated on its regular car industry to consider flying alternatives
Not yet 😂
Great one
Do a Hunter s Thompson video
Are you guys, "first" fighting? 🤔😂
I know, this "First" thing is starting to get old at this point. 🙄
I live 100 East of Richland WA and you said it "was" of Hanford. That's wrong as it's not tense. It "is" home of Hanford. Many people work and live there. The old sign and post tense wording questions the creditability of this
Thank you for this! ☢
I'd really like you guys to do a video on Kenau from the dutch city of Haarlem.
Don't worry i only been asking this for 3 years.
Jebus!!😂 we built this city on Plutonium ❤😂 this is why I love your channel and your sister channel with "The Crazy Chicken Man" keep up that humor!!
best Starship cover ever !
This place reminds me of the podcast "Welcome to Nightvale"
I would have enjoyed real footage from the city. Must have been a really depressing dump. Soviets managed to create shit from whatever they touched.
Soviet city 1984 - -colorized-
Eating ANOTHER Weird History meal!
Eating Reese's Puffs*† cereal...while watching this Weird History video!
* From the Weird History Food video "Why The 80s were the Golden Age of Cereal"
† The cereal reminds me of E.T. eating the Reese's Pieces in the film E.T. (1982).
Something to be proud of 😂😂... loser
@@Dave-bj3pq You're too slow, you never get first but around 2nd or 3rd at best.
You have to have better instincts!
Will never be 1st.. I have a life, not everyone is pathetic like yourself
@@Dave-bj3pq You're just a sore loser.
I did in 1977, when I read about it in new scientist.
The USSR atomic bomb development program was started in Arzamas-16 ( Sarov USSR) not this place. Sarov was the USSRs Los Alamos.

There are no town that has more Toxic than Call of Duty's Nuke Town.
Love it

Another settlement needs your help. I’ll mark it on your map.
the 3 worst nuclear event was the Semipalatynsk incident?
50!!
Cool
Second. Better than first in this instance.
If available what can you tell us about North Korea's rockets? Scary country. 😮
That building said Kacca lol ca ca😂poop😅
Learn Cyrillic. C is an S.
How's about an A.I. boom town? Or would that be fake?
I won a see about the ship Orang Medan
Our families dodgeball team name is the " gloden salamanders"..... weird!!! We always tooK FIRST
We ain’t right!
I DO live in a nuclear boom town.
I find it fascinating that Hitler has become the generic dictator in the media while people like JS feel like there only talked about when it's directly about history. Hitler probably has more animated versions of him then any dictator from what I've seen.
BANG CHUNG TONIGHT!
Churches? Praying for God other than Stalin is usually frowned upon, or jailed.

Interesting wtf russia again;
Well wtf elite anywhere anyway
I am going to watch the video:

Your stock footage of a black guy going as he pleases is sort of dumb when talking about Russia.

In communist Russia, video comments on you😂😂😂😂
Last 😮
Thirty sixth!!
Love the channel so gotta keep it real-The new thumbs really suck !
Thats just me tho
Кыштым is more pronounced Keeshteem. There is no English equivalent to ы its a long E sound in the back of your mouth.
Anyone who says "first" is getting reported for spam. Guys, I meant this comment doesn't count as me saying first, so chill TF out😭😭😭😭😭
Before second
FIST
After zero
Hell yeah!

Really bad B roll and jokes. The narrator sounds like he should be working on a sports channel or something.
VO sounds like a whiny evil conspirator in a '50s grade B movie. ... nope.
You must be new here
Communism, which we all know has never been tried, sounds awesome.
Yeah this video just kinda sucked. Boring and not too interesting. I just really want more Timeline..
Yeah that's probably not gonna happen in a while
Plutonium joke sucked bro 🤦🏻♂️
It wasn’t even “it’s funny because it’s not funny” material 😑👎🏻
