Due to the explosion at Fukushima Daiichi's, a manager ordered an evacuation. But 50 brave men stayed behind to try to fix the power plant. They stayed behind knowing it was dangerous, knowing they would be exposed to the radiation and even then they are still working hard to try and fix it. They are said to be exposed to high doses of radiation, and even though they are wearing protective clothing they will still face some negative effects. I heard in the news that the men that stayed behind were not young men, but old men. They said these men were volunteered for their age becuase they believed they wouldn't die becuase of the harmful effects. Because it takes 10 to 20 years for the effects to kick in they believe they would die before they began to suffer.
