Nuclear Exclusion Zone Day Trip 13 Years Later | Fukushima

On March 11th, 2011, a devastating 9.0-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Japan, triggering a massive tsunami that forever changed Fukushima. 14 years later, I revisit the events of that tragic day, the ongoing impact on local communities, and the progress made in rebuilding and recovery.

  1. Sorry for the delay in uploading the video. But trust me, this one's worth the wait. I rode a helicopter, stepped into a nuclear power plant, and had some mind-blowing sushi. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

  2. Thank you for this video, Ryotaro. In a Youtube world of games and challenges, sometimes it is good to reflect on the past and the lessons we can learn from it. I wish the rest of the world had a bit more reverence for the state of our planet and communities.

  3. Thanks Ryotaro! I have an academic interest in Fukushima because I'm a Certified Health Physicist and a personal interest because I lived three years south of Tokyo and my Japanese friends asked me for advice during the initial accident.

  4. I can't believe it's already been 14 years.
    Back then I was doing Japanese Studies in university.
    I went to Japan for a month in 2010 and it was every bit as awesome as I'd imagined, and I hope I'll get to come back someday.

    Every time I see footage of the tsunami it still sends shivers down my spine.
    Good to see some of the locals are in high spirits.

  5. Huh I thought Christ would do this documentary due he did one with the actor.. but truth knowing your from Japan I think it’s good soo you get know your home “Japan” better in times like that.. you get that unification you always talk about that Japan has when you “yourself” lean about a deferent prefecture..

  6. This is well timed, I'm going on a tour of the plant and cleanup area this week. Really interesting to see the local community aspect as well.

  7. Sheesh not only do I very direly need some Chansey tea cups, but I feel genuine sorrow for the shop owner and everyone who experienced that disaster, I hope one day they will be able to reclaim their homes and shops. God bless those workers who tried to hold out the reactors till the very end, they knew what was going to happen.

  8. Brilliant. I stayed in Iwaki and Tomioka last October for a few days. Also went to Futaba specially to go to the school. If you're visiting Japan and can make it work, please visit the area. The people are so nice and humble. If possible, even more so than other parts of the country.

  9. This was amazing ryotaro!!! Deserves way more likes and attention. I loved the presentation style, I appreciate the MORE local approach that you can give because you are japanese and speak the language natively and all the conversations and everything you were showing about the disasters was eye opening and I felt that I learned more compared to other videos ive seen on this in the past including chris's video. Hoping to see more content like this from you in the future!
