  • Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -4/+67I can't wait to reach the first part of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
  • TheBritishGuy1, on 10/12/2007, -4/+59In the 10th picture the once leaking reactor core is encased in tons of concrete and is aptly named The Sarcophagus. Man, I can't wait until I reach that area in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
  • drouk1556, on 10/12/2007, -9/+58I'm terribly sorry. Bury me.
  • nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -11/+59you guys, help me out. I think I have a S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
  • Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -14/+59I can't wait until drouk1556 finds out when dgblackout finds out what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is.
  • HunterTV, on 10/12/2007, -0/+37But you're not dead yet.
  • Pix869, on 10/12/2007, -7/+39I think I'll join the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Bandwagon.
  • kennymiller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+29I want to go to Chernobyl.
  • skyanathema, on 10/12/2007, -2/+26people need to stop linking wordpress articles... its pretty apparent that wordpress can't handle digg!
  • coheedcollapse, on 10/12/2007, -4/+16Ok don't rape my face with destruction or anything, but I don't care if these pictures are HDR, they're all pretty mediocre - even for pics of Chernobyl.

    I bet it was an awesome experience though. That's seriously one of my life goals, to take some pictures there.

    Well, can you hang around a couple of minutes? He won't be long.
  • richlizard24, on 10/12/2007, -6/+15Their serve must be in Chernobyl.
  • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8If you like these kinds of pics you probably would like urban exploration.
    Most, if not all explorers of abandonments find the decay of uninhabited spaces to be beautiful; many of these explorers are also photographers.

    And you may have seen an ad for Infiltration in 2600: http://infiltration.org/
    You can see great videos of people walking around the French catacombs, sewers, and abandoned buildings on this NSV (Winamp) stream: http://urbexation.com/tv/
  • Hindu_Wardrobe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Seconded, I've always been fascinated with that place.
  • sillywampa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7"working mirror"
    works so well, it mirrored the Wordpress error too!!
  • Hindu_Wardrobe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I doubt it's because of Chernobyl... you could be, you know, naturally still growing?
    Just a thought, you know...

  • VaporBro, on 10/26/2007, -3/+9With all this talk about S.T.A.L.K.E.R. I completely forgot to read about what I was supposed to be reading about in the first place.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Pripyat reminds me of Detroit, only safer and without graffiti.

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6so i've had the game for a few days, and been playing it for a while, but still.. what the hell does S.T.A.L.K.E.R. stand for?
  • Splitt3rxx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3damn, those graphics are INSANE, i need a new video card so i can run S.T.A.L.K.E.R at highest settings.
  • sven007, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6yep, 48 diggs and it's already down. time for a server upgrade.
  • triscuitbiscuit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3No work.
  • Endies, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6WordPress = Rosie O'Donnell. Useless. Except for those Koosh balls. They were cool

  • Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Same here. I once saw this photographic journey of Chernobyl. It was actually quite touching. I think I'll have to find it.

  • mindsnare, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2man, I didn't think I've ever be keen to go to Russia, but things like this, along with all the stuff from englishrussia.com just make the place so damn interesting and scary at the same time.
  • popltree2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuvB7j9n-II

    Bring out your dead!
  • m00dy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2You S.T.A.L.K.E.R come here, lets have a chat!
  • sfmman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It worked a few minutes ago... sorry!
  • tpv2066, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2maybe you should check it works first.
  • krunk4ever, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3coral's not loading for me either...
  • spookyttws, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Looks like the Chernobyl server wasn't able to handle the load we put into it.
  • Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@CalipsoII

    I think that's it. Thanks.
  • affanjam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It gave me a error at first then i refreshed and got in. can handle enough mysql calls
  • manova, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You should maybe consider blurring your passport in the first picture. You can make out a good deal of the info, especially all of the stuff at the bottom.
  • dattaway, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1At least this tour did not expose us to barium-133.
  • kg4gyt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Turns out I wasn't using the mirror at all, I just happened to catch it at just the right time.
  • flexiverse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hmmmm.... some pics on his flickr page, his blog seems digged to death.
