I agree, but the A-Bomb would've been released too high for them to notice the plane... More conventional bombers did do a lot of damage to Japan and would've been a lot lower...this one even lower. I think they probably knew it was going to happen symbolically on that special remembrance day. Still, it looks odd to us today... 👍

And the bombs dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki are nothing compared to the ones they made later. If something similar was to happen now, six years later the people wouldn’t have picked up and recovered in the way Japan did in the post war period. It would be more horrific than anything the world has seen except for the only other time nuclear weapons have been used against a civilian population.

@@golem7492false. Their entire population was radicalized and trained to resist until death.

Only after their god emperor ordered them did the population not resist in force.
Very little. The airburst nature of the detonation ment most of the radioactive particles were blown away and spread globally as opposed to a ground burst where radioactive particles are trapped and bound with the dust, soil and mud of the land's surface.
Next to none above the ordinary. A-bomb contains only lower tens of kilograms of nuclear material. A nuclear powerplant on the other hand can hold tons of nuclear material and that is why Hiroshima is back at its finest and Chernobyl (Prypiat) is a ghost town.
of course pre-bomb imperial Japan never did any war crimes to its 17 neighboring countries 🇯🇵😇 (pays sexual slavey victims to shut up, denies massacres and human experimentation, convinces people that they were the biggest victims of the war instead of...you know)

That’s not how it works. It’s not like in the movies and TV shows where a nuclear weapon will leave an irradiated wasteland. After the first week the amount of radiation that was at the very centre of the explosion had dropped to 1/1000,000th of what it was when the bomb dropped. Long lasting radioactive areas come from disasters like Chernobyl where there are particles constantly admitting radiation still to this day.
It blew above the ground 1650 ft up - It was mainly in the air. They removed the top soil and its basically just normal background radiation levels there.
What people do not realise is, that in a A-bomb there are only lower tens of kilograms of nuclear material, unlike in a powerplant, where there are tons of nuclear fuel. Compare Hiroshima to Chernobyl, for instance.
Because the Hiroshima and nagasaki bombs were detonated in the air it didn't produce much fall out. Had it detonated upon impact there'd have been major fallout and radiation issues
Consider a people, a culture, who can create a story like Godzilla in the wake of unimaginable travesty! First Godzilla movie came out in 1955. Just 10 years after! Beautiful culture!
You are severely misinformed. Nowhere near millions. 100,00 is the real number. They attacked the U.S. at Pearl Harbor, and just wouldn't stop with the raping (Rape of NanKing China) amongst many other atrocities. The A-bomb ended the war and SAVED countless more Japanese that would have not survived the war continuing. The Japanese people have come a long way, but were most certainly a disrespectful unruly people.
A tragedy that it had to happen, but no it was not a bad decision. It’s like a 25 to 1 ratio in favor of lives saved. Roughly 200,000 died between both bombs. Millions and millions more would have died invading Japan and the Japanese would not have agreed to surrender unless utterly defeated and occupied. The reason they surrendered was the they realized they would not be able to cause casualties to the allies. That meant they could not hope to cause enough casualties to cause the allies to agree to a lesser defeat that allowed the Japanese to keep their empire and military leadership. And we would then have fought another war or they would be on the side of China/North Korea today. We killed the least number of people necessary, occupied the country, rebuilt their country, and now they are our strongest ally in the Pacific we created a Pax Americana that lasted for 85 years and is only now deteriorating. Pretty damn good outcome if you ask me or any other rational person.
I read books about it and I understand the concept of the end of the war and all that but I could never understand why they couldn't just drop the bomb on uninhabited place, close to a city in Japan. Everybody would have got the concept😢
One of the senior Japanese admirals, even after the first bomb fell, said in a cabinet meeting "would it not be beautiful for the nation of Japan to be destroyed like cherry blossom in frost". Japan's leadership didn't feel like"prompt nuclear destruction" was a good reason to end the war. It took the emperor himself to call for surrender, and even then there was a coup attempt to continue the war. I can't help but feel that this justified the decision. Against conventional warfare the Japanese would have happily fought for every street, watched every city burn in conventional bombing. Considering that they didn't initially take a city being destroyed seriously, I think destroying an uninhabited place would have gone completely unnoticed.
@@shanemathews4177well it would have been noticed obviously but they would have seen the “warning shot” as evidence that the Americans were too weak to actually destroy cities and therefore the war could continue and they might cause enough casualties to get better terms and not have to actually surrender or allow occupation.
Sexual slavery, human experimentation, massacres, forced labor. China, Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Cambodia, Laos, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Myanmar, New Guinea, Guam, East Timor, and Nauru. From my country alone, during Japanese occupation "suffered great loss of life and tremendous physical destruction by the time the war was over. An estimated 527,000, both military and civilians, had been killed from all causes; of these between 131,000 and 164,000 were killed in seventy-two war crime events." Seventy two war crime events. From Imperial Japan. Oh but poor them.
