'I was the last person in Chernobyl's control room and will never get over what I saw'Oleksiy Breus entered Chernobyl's control room hours after the 1986 disaster and witnessed colleagues dying from radiation as his own skin turned brown like a suntan. ‌The 67 year old, who began his employment at the facility in 1982, was the last man to be in the control room after reactor No 4 malfunctioned during a safety examination. ‌He informed the BBC that the acclaimed drama series Chernobyl didn't overstate the devastating, swift and observable impact on human physiology that the blast inflicted. He stated: "For example, that useless secrecy, which became one of the reasons behind the Chernobyl disaster. When the operators pushed the red button, the reactor didn't stop but exploded."
