Look at the piece that fell over there, that’s the problem. 500 Roentgens, and that one there, a thousand.
Let’s go. That’s enough. We need to get out of here. Let’s go, come on!
These pieces of graphite and volatile uranium rods had been _________ from the reactor during the explosion. One single piece gives of enough radioactive to kill a man in less than one hour. They absolutely have to be got rid of before the construction continues.
The radiation is very high. We can’t do it manually. We have to use robots.
Robots are sent onto the roof to shovel the little debris over the edge. But after a few days the ambient radioactivity begins to affect even the machines. Their electronic circuitry cut to hold up. They get absorbed and break down. One of them fell itself into the bridge.
Did you manage to rescue it?
On the roof robots machines are no ________ an option. Men would have to replace them. Russian soldiers ________________ biorobots for the occasion.
17 September 1986. Under the roof of block n3
This _______________ of young reservist is preparing to go upon the roof for the reactor for the first time. They are between 20, 30 years old. All are reservists called to the front for the most dangerous deadly __________ of Chernobyl. No human has ever worked in ________ as radioactive as this.
General Nicolai Tarakanovs is in commander of the operation and personally ___________ every detail. Down to the handsaw lead tubes that every soldier forced to make the night before the attack.
“On their fronts, on their backs, on their boots, they were covered in __________. A helmet, a mask to protect them against ________ _______, and a special equipment, double layers of protection on the hands. A whole uniform _____________ 26 to 30 kilos.”
Did you have your medical tests? Yes! There weren’t any problems? OK. Everything’s set them.
Comrades, you should know…that I was up on the roof two days ago with an office, and one thing for sure I can tell you that there’s nothing terrifying.
“Obviously, some people didn’t want to go. But they had to. They were ____________. They had to go. For me there was no question. I had to go to do my duty. Who was going to do it for me? Who was going to clean up this disaster and stop the spread of radioactivity all over the world? Somebody had to do it.”
“Two and half weeks of hell. But hell only ____________ 2 to 3 minutes for each soldier or sometimes even just 40 seconds when the level was too high. We were careful to calculate out the time to save as many lives as possible.”
When the signal blows the crew of anxious soldiers __________ _____ onto the roof along with an officer. The mission is simple. ____________ the radioactivity debris as quickly as possible and throw it off the roof.
Be accurate, be accurate. That’s ok.
