Fake History Porn

Welcome to /c/fakehistoryporn@lemmy.world , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.
The name is a reference to the fact that the pictures should be worth marveling at. This is NOT a place for hardcore pornography. Tasteful nudity is fine as long as it fits within the context of the post (please mark it as NSFW).

That appears to be the Elephant's foot in Chernobyl. When it was first discovered it apparently could cause radiation poisoning within 4 minutes.
That being said, the half life decay of the elephant's foot has been going on for awhile. Artur Korneyev, who took photographs appears to be alive to this day.
