How he survived Chernobyl. Content Warning.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Sasha Yuvchenko, and I want to share my firsthand account of surviving one of the most catastrophic man-made disasters in history: the Chernobyl nuclear explosion. On April 25th, 1986, while working at the heart of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the No. 4 reactor suddenly exploded, unleashing devastation on an unimaginable scale. The blast itself was massive, instantly vaporizing one of my colleagues.
