I don't know all the details, but apparently there was a 'possibility' that, when the AZ-5 button was hit, the control rods would descend but not properly enter the reactor core; rather, when they touched the edge they would cause a power surge which would cause them to jam barely half-in and not doing much good. The power surge however would cause even more problems to the rest of the atomic power station. This 'statistical possibilty' was known to the original designer and also a few big-wigs high up in the Politburo but it had been buried in an official report and not made widely available. Certainly the every day staff at Chenobyl never knew of the risk/possibility of it all going pear-shaped.

The fact that the reactor was runing for hours in a low state where it created Xenon inside the core. No one ever probably expected or thought that someone would run a reactor, on purpose, in such a state for so long.

Actually the auto-safety system would have blown it up. They had pushed it into a dangerous state that was hard to back out of. The correct solution from this point was to lower the control rods one at a time. Among the many design flaws in this reactor, lowering the control rods momentarily increases reaction rate. Normally this is not a problem, but when they've built up so many three-day isotopes and are so close to prompt critical it's deadly.

I'm sorry, but in NO way does this compare to the real chills (I got) from the HBO 5-part mini-series (though, I admit, this little clip's all I've - so far - seen of the whole film), they've done 'typical' things, i.e., have background music for this, which, in the HBO scene, there's none during this whole sequence, only the eerie silence, punctuated by an alarm, or an ominous rumble, making it just pure nail-biting torture (in the first episode, the very beginning, when it's night, and we're in the fireman's apartment, the window's in the centre, and you can tell that the central part is the reactor. When there's an instantaneous beam of incredibly bright, white light, shooting straight up, most people (watching the film, as well as those, who were AT the real area of the tragedy) are caught off-gaurd by it. A few seconds later, there's a deep, powerful rumble, and explosion does it become crystal clear; the sound and noise were only part of it. The blast of white light was the other part, and that we've just witnessed a massive disaster. I don't know what the actor's (real) name who's playing the Anatoly Dyatlov part, but, here - though hey make him (obviously) 'in-charge', in HBO's Chernobyl, Paul Ritter was ruthless, uncaring to the point that he didn't even believe the data, unless he could somehow make it conform what he thought it should be. The disaster was caused by a string of terrible coincidences, and it's much more likely that - in the Soviet Union, people were less than 'people', but, more accurately just a small part (of whatever it was that they were involved in/with), and therefore, they didn't care about the totality - only that their small part was correct/efficient, etc, and, here the Dyatlov-character seems more human, and just...stupid, but, in the HBO mini-series, he was ruthless to the point that the entire plant could drop into the pit of hell, just as long as what HE was in charge of, DID asmthey were expected, and followed EVERY rule.

Yes, I worked at a nuclear power plant in Maryland (now retired) when this disaster struck. Some time after it happened we had a meeting where the official report of what happened was read by our supervisor. From what I remember, they were trying to perform some type of test which required the reactor to be at a low level. Problem was, at that level it became unstable and was going to auto shut down. To prevent that, they disconnected the safety systems. Unexpectedly, the reaction increased rapidly to the point of the reactor exploding, so quickly it occurred - a matter of seconds - that they didn't have enough time to get the control rods inserted into the core. It was sheer stupidity on the part of the control room operators. The other problem was that the reactor building itself wasn't strong enough to contain the explosion and allowed the radioactive fire and contamination to blow out into the atmosphere.

Dyatlov, the supervisor, was the only one with any experience with nuclear reactors. The others were trained in reactor operations but that only covered routine operations. So they were fine until Dyatlov started going off script and then all they could do was whatever Dyatlov told them to do.

Me and the boys at an sleepover messing with the tv:
This why we have lot of safety systems as we do now if something were to happen like that again I think they have emergency shut off but I don’t if I’m right can any one correct me if I’m wrong

Funny thing is that the safety button worked as a detonator in this case

They did have an emergency shutoff. Problem was the reactor. A graphite-moderated water-cooled reactor with a positive void coefficient and graphite-tipped control rods and xenon-poisoned in a low power state. When the steam voids were cleared and xenon burned off, power sky-rocketed. Shutoff command was given, but neutrons were moderated by the graphite tips on the control rods before the rods could slow the reaction. Overheated cire produced hydrogen gas, ruptured the vessel, hydrogen explosion destroyed the reactor hall. We don't use graphite moderated reactors; our PWR's generally lose reactivity the hotter they get by design. Core melts can still happen, but a lot has to go wrong at once.

@@sechesin7111 well there wwas few catastrophic events. two explosions. but there was something more before those 2 explosions, breaking up fuel channels also were explosions but very small and unnoticable. fuel channels rupturing were causing hot steam to enter reactor vessel,more fuel channels break up,more steam less water when all water was gone reactor started melting but not all at once. there was separation from ELENA assembly first i.e all fuel channels shattered and reactor instantly bleed all steam to reactor vessel. first explosion is that ELENA jumped out of reactor drum,it was pushed upwards by steam. it crushed the refuelling machine crane and fell back to reactor drun on its side, then hydrogen and oxtgen go boom and destroy the reactor hall.

Yes. An employee at a nuclear power plant in Sweden got radioactive dust from Chernobyl on himself when he went outside. When he went back inside to work, he set off the radiation sensors. That's how the world outside of Russia first found out about it.

@@catonawatermelon8 one of fuel channels broke into pieces so had to be deactivated,afterend reactor was repaired and returned to fnction but just one fuel rod less. sd for turbine fire, it was not fault of turbine but cutoff switch that shorted and turbine did send back voltage to generator this killed generator and caused oil leaks because oil lines ruptured and that oil ignited due to shorting.,generator rotor windings had meltdown all reactors indeed had partial meltdowns around 1982 or 1984 , there was 3 or 5 accidents with fuel channels breaking... because of fking graphite tips on control rods. they knew that could cause some problems but truth was censored...if you entirely take away control rods from reactor and reinsert them throught az-5 button you get endless reactivity increase. .. if you only remove control rods partially not entirely and you hit scram there will be huge spike in power increase but not reactor detonation also real purpose of RBMK reactors was production of radioactive isotopes including plutonium.

Its a made for TV movie, so the quality is going to be much lower than a theater movie. Lower budget for cameras plus household TVs can only look so good.
