Default Nuclear Explosion

Was playing on youtube, found this. Such a scary thought

its simply mind blowing how it starts with one tiny atom 1000000times smaller than a really really small thing spliting in half.

90% is real actuall recordings, was part of the documentary made on hiroshmia i think?

i read something like anything which is not stone or metal in the center 10miles just gets vaporised into carbon dust. they found outlines of people on concrete and stone steps where the 4000c heat just made them vanish! you see this at 2:13mins

musics pretty cool, lets just hope ww3 never happens.

A quote buy Albert Einstein on the subject

"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

Look for a film called "Threads", pretty sure that will be on YouTube

First aired in the early 80's on TV, it tells the story of a nuclear attack on Sheffield. Still pretty horrific 25 years on!

I had nightmares that night! (I was 13)

Was banned from TV after 1 showing IIRC

It's a good video, but 90% real actual recordings? Was that the 90% that wasn't computer generated, or modeal recreations?
