Here are several documentaries about the Chernobyl reactor disaster.  Each of these three stories is on You Tube. As you play the first one, the next ones appear on the right side listing or on the screen itself at the end of each part.

I think it’s wise to look at these, if only for the reactions and miscommunications that facilitated the disaster.

This is a ten part documentary. It is fascinating for its exposure of new information including much, much larger death tolls. I was particularly surprised that the Soviets used thousands of miners to dig a room beneath the stricken reactor which was filled with concrete and formed a base that the melting core could not penetrate.

Here is the first part of a six part documentary.

This is a five part.
