Coming up are 10 weird things found in Chernobyl. On April 26th 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant reactor number 4 blew up after a cooling test. It was the most devastating nuclear accident in human history. It was unexpected disaster and nobody knew what the destructive reach and consequences of the radiation would be in the long run. When it was safe for people to enter Chernobyl again they discovered the weirdest things you couldn't ever imagine.
10. MUTATED ANIMALS
Immediately following the Chernobyl incident alot of mutated animals were found. In all the nearby regions surrounding the power station animals were being born with the most devastating mutations as a result of the massive amounts of radiation. These animals didn't live very long and also were unable to reproduce putting alot of local species in danger but it was only when some scientists went back to the immediate areas around the station that they discovered the most severe cases. What scientists discovered in Chernobyl shocked the whole world. These are cow calves with parallel legs growing out of their neck, others have been born without an upper jaw and unable to eat.
9. THRIVING WILDLIFE
As crazy as this might sound, the Chernobyl area today has very healthy and prolific wildlife. Even before the accident when humans were living there. With the exclusion zone which covers an area of approximately one square mile in Ukraine, immediately surrounding Chernobyl nuclear plant there hasn't been any Huma activity or presence since April 1968 which means that now the radiation is longer lethal, the wild animals can live there at their leisure without fear of being hunted or killed by people. There is also the fact that their habitats are not in danger of disappearing by construction of buildings and not only wildlife, nature is also thriving. The trees and plants are incredibly healthy.
8. AN ABANDONED CARNIVAL
There is still an abandoned carnival within the exclusion zone. The park was a brand new construction that was supposed to have it's grand opening on May 1st 1986 just in time for May day celebrations. For obvious reasons this never happened so not only is this carnival in one of the most lethal places on earth, it actually never opened. It's to this date completely virgin nobody has ever been on these rides. The park has actually massive and abandoned ferris wheel. That attraction would've brought so much joy and food memories for all the families but never had a chance to do so. Today the entire park has been reclaimed by nature with trees and plants growing everywhere. The area under the ferris wheel actually has one of the highest levels of radiation in entire the exclusion zone.
To know about the others, watch till the end.
