In this brand new series I go back to Fukushima (Japan) with Frederik to visit the nuclear exclusion zone and show you how this zone looks today and we explore the last abandoned buildings before everything is demolished.
In this episode I check a potential looking store in the late evening and we return later to film.
It turns out be some kind of construction store with many expensive items.

50yrs ago; What use to be Woolworth General Stores etc in the States. This reminds me of what you are exploring. General Stores carried a little bit of everything. The way Japan culture is set up is like general stores... Mom&Pop... Also can remember KMart use to carry paneling & other wood, it was fazed out late 1970's. Now KMart is no longer. I remember some 5&10 stores that carried more stuff over the yrs before going under.

Be careful stirring up dust. 1 small spec of radioactive dust in your lungs can cause cancer. My grand dad worked in a furnace room of a now closed Hospital and all of the pipes were coated in Asbestos. He ended up getting cancer which spread throughout most of his major organs. He did not make it to retirement age. 😢

@RealKansasMan Жыл бұрын

To be honest I don't know much about radiation, but that stuff should've been packed up and taken out of that store to be sold and not just left to go to waste. I understand leaving food items behind in fear of radiation poisoning, but hardware items and regular household items are a completely different story. They should've came back there to pack up all of the stores in that town the very moment they knew they were not going to ever return again. I hate seeing this waste, it's truly disgusting to look at, but at the same time it's fascinating to see what happens to things left abandoned for years.

You call them thieves. Did it come to your mind it could be the owner. Or in the worst case, locals who lost everything due to the event. Or just poor people that can't buy a product they need and see no other option than taking something thats going to be garbage anyway. Even when it is not theirs to take, someone probably "aquired" this or that for some reason. Thieves are like locust.... As long there is something to get,they will come back.
