Visiting Chernobyl

In E 25 Alan recalls a trip to Chernobyl in the Ukraine, formerly the Soviet Union which was the site of the worlds biggest nuclear disaster. A place that fascinated him as a child, this story describes what it is like to stand 20 metres from the Reactor, ramble through radiated forests, the ghost town of Pripyat and stand beneath the towering Woodpecker early warning system. It also contains some cold war history and an Insane clown Posse quote....what more do you want? The Youtube version also has a ton of photos and videos filmed on the trip!
