Storytime : This is a true story about a man named Hisashi Ouchi or better known as ''The ouchi Man'' he was one of three employees of the Tokaimura nuclear plant to be heavily impacted by the accident on 30 September 1999 he suffered a huge tragedy. Outside of major nuclear events such as the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the meltdowns of nuclear facilities such as nuclear power plants, the effect of radiation on humans could not be tested. As such after the 1999 Tokaimura nuclear accident, many scientists jumped at the opportunity to study the victims of such a high amount of explosion to radiation. Out of all the victims of the disaster, the case of Hisashi Ouchi stands out. . Leading up to the 30th of the month the staff at the Tokaimura nuclear plant were in charge of looking after the process of dissolving and mixing enriched uranium oxide with nitric acid to produce uranyl nitrate, a product which the bosses of the nuclear plant wanted to have ready by the 28th. Basically he and 2 other employes where in charge of this major radiation chemical. Due to short time that they had they made some changes to the chemical mixture ,So becuase they had short time they mixed a DEADLY MIXTURE that would cause there FATUAL DEATH the inexperienced technicians added SEVEN TIMESS the recommended amount of the compound to the mixture leading to an UNCONTROLLABLE chain reaction being started in the solution. As soon as the Gamma radiation alarms sounded the three technicians knew THEY MADE A MISTAKE. All three were exposed to deadly levels of radiation, more specifically Ouchi receiving 17 Sv of radiation due to his proximity to the reaction, Shinohara 10 Sv and Yokokawa 3 Sv due to his placement at a desk several meters away from the accidents. When being exposed to radiation it is said that anything over 10 Sv is deadly, this would prove to be true in this instance.
