New Top Gear Episode - Did they take it too far?

Watched the new Top Gear episode where they take three compact cars on a trip to the Ukraine. Did they take it too far at the end? I will take precaution and add the spoiler warning before explaining what they did.
*Spoiler Below*
They end the trip with which car can run out of gas fastest before reaching Chernobyl. When they arrive, the majority of the camera crew refuse to go in and they are left with a skeleton crew. I've read a few articles that compared this to them taking a road trip that ends at Auschwitz or Ground Zero. Thoughts?

Not comparable.
Chernobyl was a tragic accident. Many Ukrainians look at Chernobyl as a reminder of how bad things were under the Soviets. Nothing like Auschwitz or Ground Zero.

no. In terms of being offensive Chernobyl doesn't even register on the scale of Holocaust or 9/11.

Where did you watch this?
They have only aired 2 new episodes on BBC America thus far.

GZ is a memorial these days so no big deal driving up to it. Not sure about Aushwetiz
