Also learning a bit of Russian ( they speak Russian, not Ukrainian, in Dnepropetrovsk ) would be awesome. I guess vodka is cheap over there because from what I've seen they drink a royal f*** ton of the stuff. 12/10 sounds like a bit of alright, who knows?!?!

I'd love to go - but would be packing my tinfoil undies and staying firmly on the beaten path! I'm picking they are not as strict with exposure as some of the other nuclear installations around...

In fact, isn't "vodka" is russian for water or something similar? You going to drive a tank? Think this was a new interview about an industrial accident caused by booze at work and the guy is saying that they don't have a problem with booze or something.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLDerwaXZDg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm picking they are not as strict with exposure as some of the other nuclear installations around... Lots of old people still live in the region and grow their own crops and say they are perfectly fine.. but as you probably know some pretty horrible stuff has happened to children who parents were exposed to the radiation before they were born From the videos I've seen you seem to safe walking around the city and other areas as long as you stay the hell away from trees and long grass etc.. radiation sticks to plants like sh*t to a blanket. It's pretty much 100% safe as long as you on roads / in buildings The people who work on repairing the huge concrete cover they dropped on the reactor ( which was meant to last only a few years, but it's still there over 20 years later ) work 10 days on 10 days off or something like that... awesome job huh? Bit of a flick on it Awesome photos of the place.. http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featu...-then-now/14634 Edited November 10, 2009 by Mark247 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Top Secret 2 Report post Posted November 10, 2009 One of my alltime want-to-go places is Chernobyl. I've watched so many videos and read up so much about it, such a hugely fascinating place. For anyone that wants a good read/picture viewing, go onto this site: Kidd Of Speed. It's very interesting. Soviet era stuff is just so cool Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mark247 39 Report post Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Well im off there tomorrow. I have just spent the last week exploring Vienna, ended up going to a university protest, and a cool little town called Steyr (which has a massive bmw factory which makes the majority of BMW's engines... and its not even in Germany.) I took a photo of it from the train, but it just looks like a train yard.. haha. Yesterday I took the train to Bratislava where I managed to get lost trying to walk back to the train station from the centre of town at night. Luckly people are friendly there and I asked some chicked where to go and she told me where to go on a map and gave me her bus ticket!! I happily didn't ended up reenacting the Hostel movie.. Flying to Dnepropetrovsk tomorrow, I think I'm in for a shock.. I found Slovakia pretty alien and it's even part of the EU! Here are some photo in no order ha. Cool cars I've seen are - E30 vert with flaired guards - Latest VW Golf murdered out and slammed on stealies with white walls in Bratislava ( my personal favorate ) - E30 coupe with wood piled on top of it with roof racks - Heaps of manual e60 and e90s, automatics are unheard of here - and of course all the aston martins and porsches which seem to be normal around here.. and the only Ducati I've seen was a Desmosedici Edited November 20, 2009 by Mark247 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
