Is Chernobyl STILL killing us? Four times deadlier than Hiroshima, the radiation from it continues to affect us 33 years on — and may even be responsible for the rise in cancers and auto-immune diseases.
Kate Brown spent four years investigating the worst atomic disaster in human history for a gripping new book (pictured inset). The Chernobyl nuclear power plant explosion which took place in Ukraine's Pripyat (pictured right) during 1986 was the equivalent of four Hiroshimas. Kate estimates the death toll of the disaster could be up to 150,000 in Ukraine alone over the past 30 years. The author speculates how the spread of radiation poisoning, not only from Chernobyl but from numerous other nuclear leaks could be contributing to the rising incidences of cancer and auto-immune diseases. 😱

Video shows the actor hightailing it out if the hotel under the cover of darkness, with a man who looked similar to Spacey's lawyer Jay Barron directing the car as it pulled into traffic. Not joining Spacey however was his constant companion Evan Lowenstein, with the actor driving off into West Hollywood by himself on Wednesday.
