    In this brand new series I go back to Fukushima (Japan) with Frederik to visit the nuclear exclusion zone and show you how this zone looks today and we explore the last abandoned buildings.
    In this episode we drive into the mountains to see how the exclusion zone looks there today.
    We bump into radioactive monkeys and visit a pottery, onsen hotels and a mountain village in the former red zone.

    The letter on the shelf at 5:20 is thanking the business owner for his contributions to the neighborhood and its businesses. Dated November 1985.

    Interesting to see these hotels, they have a special atmosphere even just watching your video. A bit spooky👻 Maybe that is why at 14:22 I thought at first that there was someone kneeling in the glass box on the left side. For example, the woman, Samara, from the movie The Ring😃

    That was really interesting, and sad. More than likely, those villages will never be inhabited again. Japan's population is shrinking rapidly, and many rural areas have already been nearly depopulated as younger generations have moved into urban areas.

    • @danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk

      The villages should have never been evacuated. No one died from radiation and no one would have ever even be injured by radiation if they had all immediately returned to their homes.

    0.x mSv isn‘t too concerning at all.
    in a pottery workshop there can be far more radioactive spots, it just depends on the glaze and how the kiln is operated.

      In the mountain area it’s still high, because most urban areas got “decontaminated”. Normal radiation levels are around 0,15 microsievert and we had around 5-6 microsievert in the mountains. (Could be even higher in some places)

      1Sv is the maximum allowed radiation exposure for NASA astronauts over their career. 4-5Sv could kill a human with a 50% risk within 30 days (LD50/30), if the dose is received over a very short duration.

      All that is really needed is to avoid ingesting contaminated dust particles when you're just passing through - a face mask will help a little bit with that, basically better than nothing. I'd personally opt for a minimum of FFP2, though. Same as I would do if I was grinding paint off an object without knowing what kind of paint it is. 🤷🏻‍♂️
