50 Hours Inside the Most Radioactive Place on Earth

As you can see, we decided to not add any sponsors or plugs on this story so we could focus on the story-telling and visual experience. But making a video of this complexity without sponsor is definitely not easy, the support from Seek Discomfort is largely how we're able to create stories like this one. It took us several months get the edit to this place and a few days of filming. I'm super proud of how the video came out and hope you enjoy it. Watch it on a TV for full experience :) See you next week - Thomas

The fact that we get free documentaries on YouTube by Yes Theory is truly a gift.

- "Why did you return to the village?" - "Motherland" Babushkas don't mess around

I hope grandma is keeping safe during these trying times :'(

This has to feel surreal for Thomas right now, considering Russia just took over Chernobyl. Wishing safety for those in Chernobyl and the rest of Ukraine. 💔

"She's insistent on feeding us." It's safe to say that grandmas of all cultures are the same. They love cooking a meal for others. Very wholesome. <3

"She wants you to drink the whole bottle and eat all the food- -but it's impossible."

Here after the announcement that the city of Chernobyl is now under attack. My heart is hurting for those in this video that are now under attack. I seriously can’t stop thinking of them.

I am so sad at what is happening in Ukraine ...brought me back to this video. my heart and prayers go out to all the locals. this is heartbreaking....

My Dad was one of the bus drivers that was evacuating the city of Pripyat. Two years later I was born I remember my medical history book had this radioactive symbol on it. During the summers growing up I would get state paid camping vacations.

Its so surreal to see that everything was used and all of a sudden abandoned

Great documentary 🙌🏼

I flew to Chernobyl in November just because of this video and it was such a eye opening experience. I am extremely grateful that i made the decision to go see it. It hurts even more now to see what’s happening there, when you met all the kind people. Hoping this will end soon.

Grandmothers are the greatest people on this planet. No.2 goes to members of Yes Theory

The creepiest part of it is how untouched most of it seems. Normally after a place is abandoned, it would be totally looted and picked over. Here though it’s as if they everyone got up and left just yesterday, you could even see what the kids were studying the day they left

February 24 2022 I’m thinking and praying for these beautiful souls. I hope they were able to get out before it was taken over. 🙏🏾

I hope the locals in this video are okay, the mere possibility of anything bad having happened to these wonderful people makes my heart crumble 🥺

She's 88 years old, amazing how she can live alone in such an environment.

Can we just take a minute to appreciate how warm and genuine these people are. Real people not a selfish bones in their bodies.

After binge watching your channel for the past week I have learned 2 things: humanity is resilient and hope is the best medicine for the soul. Everywhere you go that from the outside just seems desolate and depressing, you find people with overwhelming amounts of optimism and kindness. Your channel shows the light that lives in humans all over the world. Thank you for filming your experiences around the world and showing the beauty and likeness in humans everywhere❤
