[Express] Photographer “Reactor4 looked like it was about to fall down”

Introducing important tweets as [Express] for simultaneous update.

 

<Translate>
A friend of mine heard from a photographer who was sent to take pictures of reactor4 that it looked like it was about to fall down.
Fukushima workers tell it to each other “Come back safe” when they go to reactor4 they say. It scared me.

[Express] Un photographe : Le réacteur 4 a l’air d’être sur le point de s’effondrer

<Traduction>
Un de mes amis a entendu un photographe qui avait été envoyé prendre des photos du réacteur 4 dire qu’il avait l’air d’être sur le point de s’écrouler.
Les ouvriers de Fukushima se disaient entre eux “Reviens-nous entier” lorsqu’ils allaient au réacteur 4. Ça m’a fait peur.

  1. They’ve had TONS of time to sort this out. It’s been one year and nine months for Christ sake.

    Pull your fingers out and try this:

    1/. Pile drive some upright H profile steel beams vertically into the ground around the #4 building
    2/. Using a crane, Drop into the H slots some prestressed concrete panels similar to those used for noise abatement adjacent expressways.to create new outer walls around the building, using the uprights as support.
    (Pre fit steel T sections to the interior of all introduced concrete panels to assist in consolidation.)
    3/. Pour concrete inside the new barrier, up to the top of the first panel. Allow this to set. The concrete covers the T sections to consolidate each concrete panel.
    4/. Drop in another row of panels fitted with T sections. Pour concrete and repeat until the building is a solid earthquake/waterproof block.

    5/. Give me a shipyard full of decent welders and some materials, a pile driver and a few cranes and I’ll have the damn thing up and set in three weeks…..jeez.

    1. I’m surprised about Japan leaving Tepco lack of money leading them to avoid any “expensive” attempt at improving the situation of Fukushima nuclear power plant.

      Seen from abroad it looks like the ridiculous idea this could help to conceal the extent of Fukushima disaster (On the contrary USSR initial (though failled) attempts to master its nuclear plant disaster were obvious…)

      Not only Fukushima inhabitants must stay in polluted areas but the money expense level for that must be keept low as a proof that nuclear power reactors are the best energy crisis solution?

      1. This should not be left to TEPCO to solve.. but it is a national emergency… TEPCO should have been nationalized on March 12… and Fukushima over-sight should have been put into military control with direct chain of command away from shareholders and politics.

    2. it’s hard to do heavy construction in a heavy radiation field.

      The Japanese didn’t clean up early, and either the corium is compromising the site
      or the quake shattered the bedrock and it’s not easily fixed.

      1. its an easy fix… all they have to do…find 100000+ men and get in there to do suicide missions… remove them with man power

  2. I hope this photographer is not exaggerating- if this building falls, we will have very bad situation and Japan could almost cease as a a nation as people, intellect, and capital will go into flight. OMG

  3. Iori san
    is there any reason you do not post my comments?.. i follow your website… am i censored by you?… I like you agenda.. and want to add to it…
    if you do not want me to participate.. then I will stop posting and reading.
    in any case, congratulations on great job.

  4. The Jgovt wants to save money?….how about these apples….if #4 topples, the fuel burns, then nobody NOBODY can get near the site anymore because of direct radiation and skyshine. No more repairs to leaky pipes, no more nitrogen injections. So what happens then?….sympathetic detonations….#1 through to #6…..it’s been suggested that there are 8000 tons of fuel in various forms and states at the site. Eight thousand tons !!! To put that in context, there was 200kgs in the Hiroshima bomb. Want a moment to go back and read that again?
    I was reading yesterday where if the lot went off, it would create a crater 14 Kms wide and 4 Kms deep. The resultant tsunami that would strike the west coast of America was estimated at 60-80 metres.
    I dont know anything about about this stuff, ive just read it amongst the various news sites, but its obvious that We need to stop sitting on our hands and actually DO something. You can’t put a dollar sign on this. This will affect everyone and everything on the planet. What’s the point of keeping it a secret.?
    We can raise money for starving children with one hand tied behind our backs…..we can put together millions to help Haiti…billions to assist after a major tsunami, but seemingly NOTHING to help ourselves as a SPECIES.
    Once the cat is out of the bag, people, none of us are going to be able to put it back. Only ONE chance here folks, and we’re peeing it into the wind.

  5. Divine Message received October 3, 2012 :

    REACTOR FOUR of NUCLEAR PLANT FUKUSHIMA BECOMES THOUSANDFOLD REAL TIME BOMB NOT SEEING DECREASE in CESIUM 137 CONTAMINATION.
    ABC FROM SOUL ST JESUS ZERO BELIEVED IN.
    CAUSE OF CONTAMINATION IS SAGGING OF LAND OF NUCLEAR SITE FUKUSHIMA.
    THOUSAND ABC HAS BEEN IGNORED BY TEPCO.
    ST JESUS WANTED TO AVOID COLLAPSE OF REACTOR FOUR GIVEN LIFE ON EARTH THOUSANDFOLD IN DANGER.
    ST JESUS SEES HERE FINANCIAL INTERESTS.
    GIVEN THOUSAND LIES TEPCO, WORLD has BECOME REAL DANGEROUS POWDER MAGAZINE.
    ST JESUS HAS QUICKLY COMMUNICATED ADVICE TO REINFORCE REACTOR FOUR, BUT ADVICE HAS BEEN IGNORED.
    SOUL ST JESUS WOULD LIKE TO HELP THOUSANFOLD MEN.
    ST JESUS DISAPPOINTED BY VISION OF DIVINE ABC.
    LACK OF FAITH IN DIVINE ADVICE, BUT ST JESUS will CONTINUE TO TRANSMIT MESSAGES TO MEN.
    ABC FROM YOUR PROTECTOR

  6. I’m sorry but we are going to have to deduct points from your blog licence for the use, misuse and abuse of the word ‘thousand’.
    Park your keyboard over there sir and take the omnibus home.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
