The Zenvo review was disappointing, SIARPC wasn't that good, but the Ukraine road trip was the highlight of the episode.
I didn't know Chernobyl is still in radioactivity (apologies for living in a cave), as well as a place where tourists are allowed! So creepy!

Admit it, you laughed really hard when the Zenvo started burning to the ground.
And the Ukraine trip was very entertaining.

I now want to drive a car at redline for hours on end.
Probably the MOST hilarious is when he is waiting while the cop talks to the camera crew and just redlines the car the whole time.

IIRC, tourists are most certainly NOT allowed in Chernobyl. But maybe the Googles will tell otherwise.

Nope. I sighed in disappointment.
I chuckled a bit when he said "the orange paint became even more orange."

For some reason I died laughing. I've been having a lot of conversations on mid engined cooling, so that's probably why.

TG were hyping it up, but really it's not that radioactive anywhere except right by the accident site.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl…
You wouldn't want to live there, but short visits carry the same sort of radiation exposure as a long flight. The workers on the new sarcophagus are carefully monitored, but aren't required to wear protective suits or anything - although the sarcophagus is being built a few hundred metres away, and then will be slid into position by remote control because the reactor core itself is still very radioactive.
If I remember rightly, there are plenty of places on the planet that are naturally as radioactive as most of the exclusion zone.

This was by far the best episode in this 21st series yet.Laughed hard several times,especially at that moment in the news with Hammond.

I mean my ISP sent me a postcard saying "Hey, das bad, don't do that"

Oh,then that's bad anyway,it means they are not afraid of admitting that they are watching you(I'm sure I'm being watched too but I never got such notices).

Well the way it works is that the BBC or whatever hires someone to keep a lookout for IPs that are known to be part of a torrent network or something like that and if they notice any activity they send out something to the ISP that the IP belongs to, and then the ISP has to send out a warning. It's kinda bullcrap because people can be unfairly accused.

Hmm,thankfully,the guys in my country don't really give a s*** about these things.Here,it's illegal only if I burn it on a dvd and sell it after downloading.

I'm really surprised they actually went to Chernobyl. Not gonna lie, that was pretty creepy.
