I seem to recall that a few old people volunteered to take the suicide mission to clean up the dangerous stuff. They lived and died of natural causes or are still alive today I think.

I'd say 0 people died from nuclear fallout or radiation sickness.

How many was it?

You are right, if a little confused.

With the Chernobyl NPP meltdown there were four people who volunteered for a suicide mission to turn valves; which was utterly critical.

All four lived.

With the Fukashima nuclear disaster, a number of temporary workers volunteered to do work, including cleanup work. All of them were monitored and reached their maximum lifetime radiation exposure before being cycled out.

One person who was monitoring radiation levels in the hottest zones died (years later) of lung cancer. After the inquest it was found that radiation had contributed to his death.

In contrast, more than 35 people died due to the evacuation.

So the official number is one. One person died of radiation related causes.

People think nuclear power plants wor the exact same way as nuclear bombs, just slower. So when one melts down they assume it's the same destructive force.

Thank you Panda. May you have the best fortune trying to work out where to stick it so you may reproduce.
