Kostin's visit to Chernobyl was not legal or approved by the authorities. The incident's news was largely hidden.

However, Kostin was later given permission to photograph the disaster site, the evacuation of residents in Pripyat, and the 30 km zone around the power plant.

Despite his closeness to the site, Kostin did not receive deadly amounts of radiation. 

He died in a car crash in 2015 when he was 78.
