World'd first Elephant's Foot (Chernobyl)

Chernobyl power plant control room in 1986 and now.

I feel like I’m getting radiation just from watching this

Here’s @grok on Elephant’s foot (Chernobyl): The Elephant's Foot at Chernobyl is a massive, lava-like blob of radioactive material that was formed after the nuclear disaster in 1986. It is a chilling reminder of the catastrophic meltdown of the reactor No. 4 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant near Pripyat, Ukraine. The Elephant's Foot was created when molten nuclear fuel, sand, and concrete fused together, creating a deadly mixture that is still highly radioactive to this day. This eerie formation was named for its shape and color, resembling the foot of an elephant. It is located in the basement of the facility and has been a subject of fascination and study for researchers worldwide. Despite the passage of time, the Elephant's Foot continues to release extremely high levels of radiation. The composition of the Elephant's Foot is a mixture of just a small percentage of nuclear fuel and mostly sand, melted concrete, and uranium. The Elephant's Foot is a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of a nuclear disaster, and it serves as a symbol of the ongoing efforts to understand and mitigate the effects of such catastrophes.

They all died minutes/hours later.

Jesus. I feel like I got radiation exposure from just watching this

Gave their lives for science

...can't be that bad...

The music is scary

I don't know what the fuck I just saw.
