Russia is a land of tragedy.
Chernobyl is in Ukraine. Just sayin'
Luckily, Ukraine is also a land of tragedy. Well. It's not lucky for Ukrainians, I guess.

These guys were dead anyhow. I suppose it's better off they dies fast, as hero, than slowly as discarded decomposing radiation victims.
all the other helicopter pilots and crews that flew over the reactor died within a matter of weeks check out the book "voices from chernobyl" - it's an oral history of the disaster if this sort of thing interests you
You know, I can't help but feel that this accident could have been avoided.

Well, the reactor exploding might have had something to do with the danger factor.
It's really odd how I find your stating of the obvious so self-satisfied.

Holy shit - that chopper just CRUMPLED. That's terrifying.
