Boiling water nuclear reactors. The most insane folly of man ever. Even more insane than the Atom bomb. In the event of a real disaster then everyone of these reactors is a ticking dirty bomb set to go off within a few days. You can’t just switch them off and walk away.
Looks like they are APR1400 reactors, which are pressurized water type.
The French have used GE boiling water reactors for years, and I don’t recall them having anything catastrophic happen.
Uh, no, those aren’t the most insane folly of man ever.
That would be the *AIR-COOLED* nuclear reactors the British thought were a good idea. There literally is no way to prevent a nuclear accident with that design.

This air cooled reactor design is dirty as hell and the fuel cartridges getting stuck or not making it into the collection pond is (as it turns out) impossible to prevent.
