Saw that...I think I am more shocked by the giant butt kid and the kid with the weird long legs.
 
I read the timeline of how the "accident" ocurred, it almost sounds like the plot of a really bad B movie, but i actually happened.
They ignored a lot of safety issues and warnings just go foward with experiment.
At the end, the guy in charge was covered in radiation and had to be buried in a lead coffin!!!:eek:

Yep and the Soviet Government did not release the reactor blew for three whole days...then they released some small article buried in page 10 acting like it was nothing, held a parade in an irradiated area. That Soviet Government was so inept back then, not much better now I am afraid.
 
Whoever did the layout for that site was an idiot. Deadly obnoxious.

I did not think so:confused: how so...I found it very easy to navigate.
 
I didn't say it was difficult, just obnoxious.
Anyway, yes, those kids are f***ed up, the U.S.S.R. was f***ed up.

That wasn't his butt, it was more like a flesh fannypack that's holding his kidneys.
 
I have to get ready for class so I couldn't watch all of it, but I watched about half....that was so sad :( :( I can't imagine having to take care of those children.

Thats a more apt description I suppose.

Yeah it really is something. I hope those politicians who didn't mention a thing about the incident for a full week can see this:mad: :(
 
This is unbelievable. What's worse is that I've never even heard of this incident.
 
I'm disappointed.

There are no three breasted women. :(

Leave it you to make a tasteless joke in light of a tragedy.
