It's hard for me to watch this series, I'm already a very impressionable person, and when I realize that all this really happened, that this is not a made-up story, but what happened to real people, I feel creepy and scared. But despite this, I want to watch the rest of it, because the series is really well shot. Emotions and excitement, fear and chaos are transmitted, even the faces of the characters, who, by the way, play great, convey this relentlessly. I would like to feel and see the chronology of this disaster in a high-quality artistic form. There are a lot of decent documentaries on this topic, but there are very few (frankly good) feature films. I hope this one won't disappoint me.

I watched the episode with my dad, who was a liquidator at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, he said that a lot of things are shown very plausibly.

Almost nothing is known about the feat of the three divers so far, only some left-wing sources. With the explosion of 2 MT, they clearly overreacted. In any case, the divers did not immediately die, at least in 2018 Poroshenko awarded Ananenko. And of course, the goosebumps from the fact that in Frankfurt children are not allowed to play outside, and in Pripyat people walk in the open air.. Rough
