I don't know if this is the right section to post this in but I heard someone say that you need some kind of card or something if you wanna go to Russia.

I live in Canada but I'd like to take a trip to Russia. Do I need anything special ahead or time or do I just buy my ticket and fly there like I would if I was flying to say Italy.

???

There exists one lie that is the absolute worst. A lie that has successfully infiltrated many of the Western governments. This lie is Christianity, and it must be fought in every way, shape and form.

The some kind of card would probably be a visa.

Probably a better (more up to date) resource:

Hm I thought so.

Well that's fucking lame but I'll do it anyway.

Another question, can I go visit Chernobyl? I doubt I can but I'm down to sneak there with a hazmat suit on, Ive always wanted to go visit the site!

> Another question, can I go visit Chernobyl?

That is difficult.  There are, or at least there were, checkpoints on the roads leading into the area.  You have to have an official escort, wear radiation badges, etc.  The roads and buildings are no longer (very) contaminated, but if you get into the grass or forest, you will be pretty much screwed.  As crazy as it sounds, there were still a few people living in the region.  I don't know if they are still there or not.  This was all around 20 years ago.

Hmmm.

I HAVE to go there!

What happens if I go in the grass or forest? Grass is growing there?

Could I go in the grass and forest with a suit on? How do those radiation badges work anyhow, they check how much radioation your bodies absorbed?

I saw the badges in the movie PU-239

The level of radiation is much higher if you get off the roads.  Spend enough time there and you die from radiation poisoning.

> Grass is growing there?

Yes, the wildlife recovered quickly.

> Could I go in the grass and forest with a suit on?

Yes, but the suit wouldn't protect you.

> How do those radiation badges work anyhow

The most common ones use film that slowly changes color when exposed to ionizing radiation.  When you wear it, your exposure to ionizing radiation is recorded.  Too much exposure leads to radiation poisoning and a slow, painful death.

Check out:

You'd have to be pretty foolish to get a lethal dose of radiation there.  Unless you actually want to go to the reactor site.

Probably the worst part would be getting just enough to turn your badge or just enough dust on your clothes to set off the geiger counter.  Then you get to have a nice chemical shower in the cold with soldiers scrubbing you down with push brooms.

in the history channel movie, life after people, they visit a town that was in the direct path of the fallout from chernobyl, it has been abandoned for about 30 years, and now they study it...

Apparently, my cousin's uncle's wife's parents needed some sort of special permission to leave Russia to see their daughters "newborn" baby. They applied when she first got pregnant, and finally arrived when the baby was 2 years old.

I dont know if it would be the same going over, but they have some strict travel laws.

After all, it can only cost you your life, and you got that for free!

So this is how liberty dies... With thunderous applause.

there's still a few people living in the area, and you're right
about staying out of the grass and woods, also a good adea to
avoid the area (70km or so) if the forecast calls for rain
because it kicks the fallout back up into the roadways

permits to travel into the area are very restricted, it's fine
to hit most cities and you'll be more welcome in smaller
villages, avoid traveling into belarus especially alone, several
countries require and entry and exit visa so plan your itinerary
and get your visa approval well in advance

some countries will also require you to prove ability to
support, paid hotel and some form of mans of payment, you may
also be required to purchase insurance to enter, it can varry
depending on your stay, 90 to a year is usually under $100
