Never-before-seen footage of Chernobyl’s infamous “Elephant’s Foot” reveals one of the most dangerous remnants of the 1986 nuclear disaster.

Its cracked, wrinkled surface gave it its eerie nickname—and this rare glimpse offers a haunting look at the lasting scars of one of history’s worst nuclear accidents.
