- If there is something you don’t want to go wrong, it’s nuclear tests. But, sadly, they have gone wrong. And, when they do, things get super serious super-fast. These are nuclear tests that went horribly wrong!

Humanity is mad.
The Castle Bravo bomb wasn't dropped as is stated here. It was huge, 23.000 pounds, and housed in a structure on the ground. Come on, do some better research!
Exactly
@@richardscathouse They need less snark and more research
And the part on Chernobyl was completely wrong also! They knew damn well what they were being told to do was dangerous, but no one was willing to get fired or sent to the gulag by questioning the crazy guy who was in charge! There was no design flaw other then the lack of a containment building. They had to shut off multiple safety systems designed to scram the reactor in order to cause the accident. And the area wasn’t abandoned the other 3 reactors continued to operate for years after the accident!
@@Trump985 Well, yes and no. Dyatlov knew that there was some danger to what he was doing, but he believed that there was actually a guaranteed fail-safe available - the AZ-5 scram button.
Because of three factors - the HUGE size of the RBMK reactor, the negative void coefficient (water bubbles, caused by heat, would increase the reaction rate, causing more heat, etc., etc), and the fact that the control rods had graphite at the ends, trying to scram the reactor caused the graphite ends of the control rods to be inserted in the bottom section of the reactor. This caused a runaway power excursion, causing a massive steam explosion, which blew the reactor up.
If the AZ-5 scram button was fast (not 18 seconds as designed), if the ends of the control rods were not a moderator (which speeds up the reaction by slowing down the neutrons), a scram would have successfully shut down the reactor.
The shortcomings of the AZ-5 scram were a state secret, and were not disseminated to all the engineers who needed to know them.

Very frustrating. I dont think more than 5 minutes of actual research went into any of the incidents. Hell, half weren't even tests at all, and most of those didn't "go horribly wrong". Even Castle Bravo, an ACTUAL TEST with an unexpected result was described as the army have "made and dropped" a bomb much larger than expected. Need trick when the bomb was the size of a house, built in place and being too effective because of unknown reactions with lithium material. You know, the reason you DO testing.
Another few minutes of study would have taught the writer that no airborne bombs are NOT "1 small mistake can allow a bomb to go off" no, it simply can't.
"size of a house." Guess it depends on where you're from. In Dixie, a house is bigger than all of those bombs...
@@654Crossman he could be homeless... so, a house is the size of a refrigerator box. gah, don't be so insensitive to the yankees...
@@salvadordollyparton666 I was homeless. Lived in a 1994 Dakota for a few months. It was still bigger than most theses bombs. 😂
what the hell is that last sentence supposed to say? and the reason you perform tests, is to see how your implementation of whatever idea has gone in the real world... it's physics, so there was a pretty good idea what would happen. it's nowhere near guess work and just see how it goes. but then, atomic tests weren't exactly tests anyway... they were demonstrations... some had testing elements at times, but mostly just a big show for our enemies. and maybe a chance to horribly torture and murder innocent people, if they'd always gotten their way. cough: project chariot :cough and the aftermath of the bombs in japan, letting those with radiation poisoning die slowly to study the effects.
the tzar bomba was supposed to be 100 megatons...but russian scientists concluded that much of the force of the bomb would be lost into space...so they settled for about half that....still almost brought down the plane that dropped it....
The 5 guys standing beneath the nuclear explosion were Air Force volunteers. But it wasn’t a bomb, it was the “Genie” nuclear air to air rocket, designed to take out soviet bombers en masse if they were headed our way. This was before ICBM’s when bombers were still the main threat and interceptors were the best way to take them down with stand off air to air weapons. The Genie, incidentally wasn’t guided, its yield was large enough that guidance wasn’t deemed necessary.
And the men underneath didn't get cancer. Not even 20 years after the test. They were followed medically for a long time. The research before this video was made seems... too little. They were there to show that the weapon could be used over US soil with no danger to people on the ground. And why would you protect yourself against a nuclear weapon by detonating one over your own country? I'm not even going to finish this video...
A device that explodes IS a bomb.
Fun fact: the cod map, nuke town, is based off of this incident
Volunteers?? Rii-iight. 😬
I doubt that somehow. 🙅🏻♂️
So if Russia had flown over here, the plan was to nuke their nukes? I mean what could go wrong there? Government intelligence, biggest contradiction ever js
Detonating a bomb underground which unexpectedly spewed lots of debris into the atmosphere was considerably worse than an atmospheric test, especially a high altitude test. BTW, most of these "tests" didn't go wrong or weren't tests at all.
One of the Goldsborough North Carolina bombs was never recovered. It went down into what was essentially quicksand-like soil. The AF guarded the site for years, and there is a memorial plaque marking the site.
Because they still could go off anytime.
Look what they found ... a lost nuke. Can we keep it?

Near Tybee Island, Georgia USA
AMATEUR DIVERS FIND LONG-LOST NUCLEAR WARHEAD
February 12th, 2015 | by Barbara Johnson
Savannah, GA: A couple of tourists from London, Ontario in Canada made a surprising discovery while scuba diving in Wassaw Sound recently, a small bay located off the southern shores of Typee Island, GA. Jason Sutter and Christina Murray were admiring the marine life of the area when they stumbled upon a Mark 15 thermonuclear bomb that had been lost by the United States Air Force more than 64 years ago.
The couple from London, Ontario, was on a two-week vacation in Georgia and Florida to practice their favorite hobby, scuba diving when they decided to dive near the shores of Tybee Island. While admiring the plants and fishes near the seafloor, they noticed a large cylindrical item partially covered by sand. They investigated the object and found out that it was actually a sort of bomb or missile, so they decided to contact the authorities.
“I noticed an object that looked like a large metal cylinder, which I thought was an oil barrel” says Jason Sutter. “When I dug it up a bit, I noticed that it was actually a lot bigger and that there was some writing on the side. When I saw the inscription saying that it was an Mk-15 nuclear bomb, I totally freaked out. I caught Christina by the arm and made signs to tell her we had to leave. We made an emergency ascent, went back to shore and then we called 911.”
The couple is still shocked after their frightening discovery and say they will avoid diving for the rest of their trip.
Rapidly understanding the gravity of the situation, the 911 operator contacted every possible emergency service, including the coast guard and the military, leading to the deployment of more than 20 ships and 1500 men in the area. Using the GPS coordinates given by the couple, they rapidly located the powerful 3.8 megaton bomb.
An unmanned submarine was sent to determine the condition of the bomb before explosive experts were sent to disarm it. Fortunately, the thermonuclear weapon produced in 1955 seemed in sufficiently good shape for a team of Navy seals to try to defuse it. They successfully deactivated the warhead after hours of strenuous work, allowing the rest of the bomb to be removed.
The delicate recovery operation took more than 48 hours, but the bomb was finally recovered and transported to Mayport Naval Station in Florida. A full set of tests and analyses will now be performed on the warhead to evaluate its actual state and the possible ecological and health hazard that its presence in the bay for 64 years could represent.
Navy explosive ordnance Disposal technicians spent nearly five hours working on the warhead before they were able to extract the detonator and the uranium core of the weapon, allowing the fuselage to be moved.
The federal and state authorities were well-aware that a nuclear warhead had been lost in the area in the 1950′s and had never been recovered, but no efforts had been done for years to recover it. It was lost on the night of February 5, 1958, when a B-47B Stratojet bomber assigned to Homestead AFB, FL carrying the 7,600-pound hydrogen bomb on a simulated combat mission at 36,000 feet altitude off the coast of Georgia collided with an F-86L-50 Saberjet fighter assigned to the 444th FIS, Charleston AFB, SC.
The radar scope on the F-86L fighter was defective and did not show the B-47B bomber on its screen causing the pilot Lt. Clarence A. Stewart, to ascend directly into Richardson's aircraft. The collision ripped the left wing off the F-86H and severely damaged the starboard wing of the B-47B bomber, tearing off the starboard fuel tank and leaving its number six engine partially dislodged.
The bomber’s pilot, Maj. Howard Richardson was instructed by the Homestead Air Force Base in Florida to jettison the H-bomb before attempting to land. Richardson dropped the bomb into the shallow waters of Wassaw Sound, near the mouth of the Savannah River, where he believed the bomb would be swiftly recovered.
The crew of the B-47B bomber was pilot, Maj. Howard Richardson; co-pilot, 1/Lt. Robert J. Lagerstrom and radar navigator, Capt. Leland Woolard. Richardson's cool thinking in the cockpit helped prevent a possible catastrophic crash of the plane.
Major Richardson was instructed to make an emergency landing at the nearest SAC base, Hunter AFB, in Savannah, Georgia. He made a single approach at high speed to keep the dangling engine pod from dragging on the runway, touching down at ~180 knots. Brakes were applied and the braking chute deployed. The plane skipped off the runway, then settled. The airframe was written off.
Lieutenant Stewart ejected from the F-86L at altitude, experiencing a 20-minute descent before landing in a swamp near Estill, SC, suffering from frostbite and exposure before being rescued four hours later. He spent several weeks recovering in a hospital in Charleston, S.C. The fuselage of the F-86L-50 impacted near Sylvania, Georgia.
For the following six weeks, the Air Force looked for the bomb without success. Underwater divers scoured the depths, troops tromped through nearby salt marshes, and a USN blimp hovered over the area attempting to spot a hole or crater in the beach or swamp. The search was finally abandoned and the bomb remained hidden for more than 64 years until recently when the (unlucky) couple stumbled upon it.
@@richardscathouse yes indeed, living close to Goldsborough I have small piece of the casing from that bomb. I keep it just for historic reasons, as accidents can happen.
Wouldn't be irradiated?
My mother and sister were living in Goldsboro at the time those bombs were dropped.
Starfish Prime is the dopest transformer it resembles patrick from spongebob!
no bomb bigger than the Taco Bell porcelain throne bomb
a little bit of research before making these videos will help to lessen the amount of garbage and misinformation out there (to which this video clearly belongs in this state)
Crimes against humanity
I'm so glad you have the Goldsboro story I love in Durham and the thought of that has always haunted me
I was born in 1953. I remember being told when I was a kid in the winter not to eat the snow from the first snowfall. It could possibly contain radioactive particles from nuclear tests. I was so freaked out I don't think I ate any from the 2nd snowfall either. They "Cold War" was a very scary time especially the "Cuba Missile Crisis". Stressful even as a kid. I also lived in a town that was listed as one of the many " Ground Zero's" because of Fort Detrick. The home of Biological Warfare.
Born in 53 as well and definitely remember the warnings about eating the snow.
I still tell my kids that to this day just to keep the shared stuff going , lol i never knew thats why they told us not to , thank you for info
I told my kids about the Cold War in 2010 & they were horrified, as they should be.
Governments can be nuts with this stuff.
Damn scary. 😲🙈
That radiation still exists and is still deadly in the snow on both the Arctic and Antarctic snowcaps...and everywhere in between.
The story surrounding The Demon core is much more interesting and incredible than explained in those 2 minutes in the video. I urge everyone to dig a little deeper. It's fascinating..
He did do hollywood deep voice on it a few times
Especially since the scene depicted in "Fat Man and Little Boy" didn't occur during the tests for the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The incident where the core was manipulated and everybody got irradiated happened well after the bombs were dropped.
Yes, there is more to this story, and it is interesting and a little sad.
The video from Kyle Hill on this topic is excellent
One of them got deathly ill
plainly difficult has a couple of good vids on that topic. his channel is basically what this video is. lots of nuclear disasters covered in detail.
From a scientific and engineering point of view, CASTLE BRAVO was a very important test. We learned a great deal about Lithium 6 and Lithium 7 under high energy conditions which has led to a better understanding of cosmology.
I seriously believe there is a much better way of understanding cosmology other than detonating a nuke just to prove that the nuke test was very important.
@@jacksparro3150 SIGH! The atomic weapon was not detonated to provide a better understanding of cosmology. After years of going over the data from CASTLE BRAVO someone realized that some of the information could be used to further our understanding of cosmology.
As for detonating the atomic devices of that time period, you need to view how the world was THEN. It is simply AMAZING that the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty was signed in 1963.
BTW No scientist or engineer that is associated with Nuclear Energy and/or Atomic Devices believes any war could be survived if weapons were detonated. This is not new. Everyone knew that in the early 70s.
BTW why not slam the US for dropping bombs on Japan?
Why is it we have to learn everything the hard way. I'm worried about the thousands over educated minds we have creating that share your priorities.
@@donkeyearrs I have no idea what you are talking about. BTW what is your opinion on little Tony Fauci saying to lockdown the economy while his good friend Gavin Newsome had parties at the French Laundry?
Yeah, they learned that L7 wasn't as inert as they thought. Ooops.
Fun fact: The blue glow in the reenacted demon core footage is real. It's called cherenkov radiotion, caused by particles passing through a medium faster than light (in that medium. But slower than the speed of light in a vacuum of course, since that is impossible) and it is absolutely beautiful! Buuut if it's not happening in a huge pool full of water: RUN!
#1 The nuclear test that awakened Godzilla
Castle Bravo was not "launched" or "dropped". It was detonated on the island, in the building you showed in the video clip. It was America's first test with a dry fuel hydrogen device and the country wanted to record as much data from the detonation as possible. Plus, it was 1954 (at least you got that right). we were still a decent ways away from ICBM deliverable warheads. Also, a nuclear bomb and an atom/atomic bomb are the same thing. No need to spell both of them out.
Thank you for your knowledge, I appreciate you letting us know as well. You are my new knowledge for today. Peace on Earth. Goodwill to all by all.

Nukes are hoax. Not real. Russia is defeated cant even make a fist in ukrain. Remember east ukrain choose russia at first nobody fought them. Were ukranians fight, russian don't get a meter further, just die or turn arround! The Ukraian flagg polish flaggs nato USA German flaggs baltic finnish will be on top in the burning cities of moscow, minsk st petersburg etc etc. Putin is walking in a trap. Russian bla bla military economic power publicly debunkt. Nuclear bombs are always have been a hoax never existed by the way ;-)
@@blackwaterinc.7305 Oh look at you, trying to be a troll. Bless your heart.
@Harley Lee Bradford We dropped nuclear weapons on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They were atomic (or nuclear) bombs. Compared to Hydrogen (or thermo-nuclear) weapons atomic bombs don't have as much fallout. It also depends on how close to the ground they are detonated.
Amongst everything else you got wrong, Novaya Zemlya is not a 'city', it is a couple of large islands in the Arctic Ocean, north of Siberia. They are part of Russia, and are (roughly) comparable in size to New Zealand. They are very sparsely populated, but that's probably not much comfort for those who actually _do_ live there, having hosted so many nuclear tests (and continuing to do so, if your video can be trusted on _that_ point!) Novaya Zemlya isn't even the place in the former Soviet Union that has hosted the most nuclear tests, that honour going to the area near the town of Semipalatansk, now Semey, in Eastern Kasakhstan. (Thanks Wikipedia!) Hell, even Nevada has probably hosted more tests, many of them visible from Las Vegas, where civilians would come out to watch, in the manner of an Apollo launch!
Btw, as a grown up, I do not _'SMASH'_ *like* or *subscribe* buttons, centipedes notwithstanding.
I was born in 1951. I remember my mom listening to the fall-out radiation of each day broadcast on the radio and TV in the Chicago area before she would let me go out to play.
In San Francisco, if it wasn't radiation from the Pacific Ocean tests. It was Biological warfare testing..just an extra case of the flu a couple of times a year,. For 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲😷
FORMIDULOSUS cerasus...I love watching your videos! Keep going!
Now we should all know why cancer is so HIGH these days.
I knew that before I graduated from High School. The teachers said "oh no you're wrong". I might add that our elected and military leaders in charge of these tests were, and probably still are crazy as bedbugs. As far as the radioactive lake is concerned NO FISHING. I can hear Burl Ives now, "Go Little Glow Worm, Glimmer Glimmer". (It's an old song from the 60's).
Most of these tests didn’t go “horribly wrong” they went exactly as planned. There is a reason they tested them in the middle of the desert or on an island in the middle of the ocean! If they knew exactly what was going to happen in a test they wouldn’t need to do the test now would they.

i wonder if the water was polluted
@@mccoy786
Ya think
How can it go exactly as planned when Oppenheimer himself had no clue.
Black Swan. They didn't know what they didn't know. Now we know a lot.., mostly because of these tests.., and a few accidents.
In my line of work a plumbob is the weight on the end of my gaugeline. It weight about 16oz and is made of brass. It’s pointed at the end to pierce the thick settlement that is common at the bottle of a stock tank (oil).
and just how many chippies and other tradie apprentices now days would know what a "plump-bob" was or how to use it? (apprentice...oh f**k, I forgot to put the auto-leveller on recharge...)
Been a carpenter for 7 years, only ever needed to use a plumbob maybe twice. Most useless item in my bosses truck.
What I don't appreciate is the looping of random footage of explosions that are NOT from the incident being discussed. For everyone, nukes don't detonate on impact, so an unarmed bomb hitting the ground has never resulted in a detonation.
Well, that's jolly nice. More luck than judgement. I think you'll find that 3 of 4 'safety' devices failed on the crash in Carolina. I forget megatonnage,but 15 plus at least.
@@dominicseanmccann6300 More uninformed fluff.
@@thatguyinelnorte what me or the video....😆
@@dominicseanmccann6300it was 6 out of 7 safety features that failed if I'm not mistaken.
You made no mention of the lost Mk-15 H-Bomb in Wassaw Sound, near Tybee Island, Savannah Georgia in 1958. That is another one which was never recovered.
yeah, that's the one I was thinking of....always like to remind my carload of passengers as we roll down I-95 and the sea comes into view that there's an unexploded h-bomb out there somewhere.....
My Dad was present for the two Bikini Atoll tests in July/August 1946. He walked on the atoll barefoot with Geiger counters that were going crazy afterwards, but fortunately never suffered any ill effects.
Bikini Atoll was dynamited and the records forged.
My dad was also at Bikini for the Able and Baker tests as a crew member of U.S.S. Hughes which they had sailed from San Francisco on and was in the target fleet. It survived both tests fairly intact despite being hurled over seven hundred feet skyward in the lagoon burst in the vertical collum of water and landed upright and afloat after it was taken all the way back to Bremerton, Wash. where it was finally sunk as a target for TBF Avenger navy bombers. Quite a tough little ironed hulled destroyer!
@@markredgrave6282 Very cool, the Hughes participated heavily in the S. Pacific, I know you are proud.
There was another nuclear melt-down like Three Mile Island and in some ways worse, but seldom discussed. My father worked there at the time. The locations was the Santa Susana Mountaintop, near the residential San Fernando Valley, approx 35 miles from Los Angeles. It had no containment structure and the accident got no publicity because it was not a commercial power plant, but rather a "research" nuclear power plant in a facility whose research activities were top secret at that time. I believe the company operating the facility at the time was either Atomics International or Rocketdyne, but I could be mistaken about the names as those aerospace companies at that time were always merging with each other or splitting apart, and as a young child I really paid no attention. It's claimed the sewers there still glows with radiation. And in the past ten or so years they have closed off parts or all of Chatsworth Park (a large, beautiful park on the edge of the mountains) with a high chain link fence and they cut down the large, old oak trees because of the contamination.
There have been several law suits put together by near-by residential neighborhoods but to my knowledge nothing has become of the law suits. At the time there was No sense of health or safety. I remember my father bringing home various strange things to play with, including quart containers of mercury.
Whenever they tested a rocket engine on the mountaintop, it could be heard across the entire valley for 5 to 15 minutes at a time.
The last time I drove up there just to check out the area, the facility was still in operation but most of the buildings have been demolished and removed.
For more information, just search Santa Susana Research facility in the San Fernando Valley, California.
wiki has a good in-depth article on what was going on there. here's the link if YT doesn't remove it:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Susana_Field_Laboratory
YES, thank you!!! Whenever I see videos about 3 mile island and how it was America’s worst nuclear power accident I correct it. The Santa Susana field lab was much worse.
Good job I was going to mention this exact thing. I remember when it was all over the news.
Santa Susana Field Laboratory - good one. It was also known as Rocketdyne which moved out to the Mohave Desert. There were so many.
It was kept hush hush because of .... Yes you guessed it MONEY!
Property values would plummet. Residents would flee leading to short term panic, looting, and crime followed by a long term ghost town. What mayor wants to "kill" a city? So they went SWEEP SWEEP the news under the rug so all the people on top could continue the status quo - getting their money.
No doubt those rich people in the know relocated their own families.
Always watch the 1% when they do something, move somewhere, it means something. PAY ATTENTION.
Under a bomb, the officers were offered protection, but not the cameraman.
You missed the British nuclear tests in Maralinga South Australia
And the meltdown at the plant in Surrey. Windscale? Still leaking 800 liters a day straight into the Atlantic Ocean.
According to this creator, anything related to anything nuclear whatsoever is considered a nuclear test
And gone horribly wrong
I'd pay to stand under an exploding nuke 😁 But right after it i'd get in an isolated car and drive... Fast 😅
In history of inventing things sometimes you have to take risks and that's why things are tested
It would be interesting to hear a straightforward account of these incidents however, the glib tone of this video makes it not worth the time.
I've seen a time lapse video showing a map and detonation locations. It's insane how many bombs humans set off on this planet. I'm surprised we're not all radiated mutants
what makes you think that we aren't.
yeah the British did many in Australia and the Pacific Xmas island.but the Radiation clouds drifted over New Zealand and the Dust and rain fell on NZ farms.Cattle,Cows Sheep ate grass.we had radiated milk .it was turned in to Butter and Cheese for export.but all school kid's were given a half pint (500 mls) of milk each school day.
Man plans .... God laugh's...
Only God can destroy this Earth..
And one day Soon... He will.
YET, results may vary, but we all live on a very small planet!
@@edwardtelles1956 any chance that the thing you call God is a woman? Cause she'll have a waaaaaaaay better chance of clapping mankind's existence. 😂
It breaks my heart knowing all the innocent people who suffered, so severely, over another fucking bomb test.
You didn’t mention the lost hydrogen bomb that still lies offshore near Tybee Island, Georgia.
Was hoping to hear something about the 'underground' nuclear test site that North Korea used to use inside of that old mountain of theirs(heard that things went pretty bad there which caused them to stop using it?).
derp. do you think there's any footage or information available out of north korea?
Surface to air defenses with nuclear tipped missiles, Nike Ajax and later Hercules SAM-A-25 and MIM 14 missles tipped with a W31 nuclear warhead were common in the USA (265 in the USA alone) they started to disappear in the 1960s. I lived near one as a kid in the Ohio Twp, PA area. 1/2 the missile base still exist in Ohio Twp as a communication military base today off of Gas Run Rd. The other 1/2 of the base, the missile silos part off of Joseph's Lane, were removed in the mid 1960's and are now a housing project directly across from the current Avonworth High School system built in 1970. That decom. missile silo base was a great place to hunt doves and grouse when I was in high school! Most people back then didn't have a clue that those bases were loaded with both nuke and conventional tipped missiles.
You know you need to worry when governments and scientists start off by saying "Hold my beer!"
This was OUT-OF-CONTROL
"Manifest Destiny". Go West young man....If POSSIBLE!
This represents mostly US and Soviet testing and accidents with the exception of Fukushima but there were quite the array of British and French testing and god knows about things in N Korea, also the incident in Idaho with the SL-1 and the Titan 2 lighting up in Arkansas
The North Koreans accidentally collapsed their test mountain.
Castle bravo was not dropped it was a stationary device on the island.
Just like the Japanese fishermen were not "infected" with radiation
Over 4,000 detonated U.S. atomic bombs, and only a handful went wrong...what are we smoking? I worked as a contractor to NASA and the Livermore Laboratories (operated by the U.S. government, the AEC, Univ. of California), and Three Mile Island was horrific. Also,the Dept. of Veterans Affairs, waited until 2009 to cover Veterans exposed to U.S. nuclear devices for treatment and approval of radiation related diseases (cancer). The VA did what it does so well - waited until 99% of those exposed were DEAD, and then decided to cover them for treatment. U.S. military personnel always questioned - later - why they were always offered as test guinea pigs. Remember "Bert the Turtle" speaking on behalf of the AEC and the Civil Defense Dept. with their famous quote, "Duck and cover?" Either the government of the United States was that dumb or they thought people would believe whatever they were told - just like today, nothing has changed.
Atomic propaganda videos (then 16MM movies) were distributed throughout U.S. public schools during the 1950's. One such film announced that there were four things involved with a detonation, fire, wind, heat, and radiation. A man with a nice voice would tell the children and faculty that the the one item you did NOT have to worry about was RADIATION.
Beginning in the late 1960s to early 1970s we had the Hanford site in Washington state commence leaking radiation waste out of the containment storage into the Columbia River,
and so many more. The government was stupid. They thought we can just put these facilities a few miles away from "population centers at the time,' and nothing will go wrong or we can use our national network of defense department owned stations, CBS, NBC, ABC, to handle the cover up while downplaying the destruction.
The astronauts were extremely worried that they would be vaporized in an atomic test in the upper atmosphere
Chernobyl was not a “test”, it was a power plant!
in which they were doing a test , which went wrong
It was a test they were performing on the reactor that led to the disaster at Chernobyl.
And the only test that got wrong was castle bravo. They assumed only one isotope of lithium would react. But both did... Making it way stronger and causing huge damage. All other tests went exactly as expected, that's why they were tests...
WRONG ! Many other nuke tests went wrong. IVY MIKE, the 1st Thermo-nuke test was far underestimated, just like Castle-Bravo. Several tests MISFIRED and someone had to go out to the tower and DISCONNECT the detonation system from the bomb so it could be checked over and either re-connected or taken down and back to the assembly area for further study. Several of the underground tests leaked massive amounts of radioactive fallout into the air and drifted off site. The SMOKEY Test went badly and worse was the HARRY Test, ( aka, " DIRTY HARRY " ) as the mushroom cloud drifted east towards UTAH and severely contaminated St. George and other surrounding towns resulting in a spike in cancers and leukemia plus still births ! A full listing of nuke tests having negative results and deadly consequences needs to be made public since the AEC and Dept of Energy doesn't want to show the facts !
I usually don't like this much narration however, yours was pleasant to listen to.
I've got my dad's documentation in 1956 testing the 13 hydrogen bombs. He's got two certificates. In fact he was on ship 65 I do believe, backed up fantail the fantail on trying to sink the ship test. For a man went over on a plane and try to sweep and mop the metal, while my dad was sitting on the fantail smoking a cigarette. He lived 79 years old.
The documentation of the Marshall Islands, Hiroshima and Nagasaki explosions were purely fraud, why not all of it? Like COVID?
270 meters is 295 yards. 400 kilometers is 248.5 miles. 6.2 kilograms is 13.5 lbs.. 89 millimeters is 3.5 inches. 300 meters is 328 yards.
"This time we will go in depth with the Marshal islands"

The standing under a n atomic bomb segment fails to mention it was a low yield air to air missile designed for a single interceptor to shoot down several enemy bombers with one shot. It wasn't a full scale city busting weapon.

Those "test" are the reason we have most of our health problems to-date.

The reason you test is to verify your hypothesis. Detonating a hydrogen bomb in space showed what will happen, this is why we did it!
By that thinking we should drop a tsar bomba in New York City just to see what would happen.
Yeah, but if it wasn't for nuclear testing in the Pacific we wouldn't have SpongeBob SquarePants
I remember the Nuclear testing at Murora Atoll in the late 80s. As a kid i remember weeks of rain at the end of summer, same every year
After the testing that rainy spell went dry for years. The weather here has never been quite the same.

Nuclear bombs don’t accidentally detonate by being dropped on a hard surface. 🙄 That would just break the delicate circuitry and make the bomb useless.
we've had a lot of "broken arrows"....most of them recovered...but that one in carolina came close to detonating according to all reports....
They do if set with an impact initiator.
And the safety interlocks are off...

On one bomb 4 out of 5 triggers worked in sequence. The bomb manual got operated during the aircraft breakup for instance.
And if you do know everything that could possibly happen during a test, there’s no point in having a test.
After the discovery impacts of those "tests" an underground bunkers immediately constructed globally.
A fundamental of science it to be able to repeat your own experiment and for others to be able to replicate your results using your methodology. This was central to the nuclear scientific narrative from the lat 1950's / early 1960's to justify the continuation of "nuclear tests".
What is surprising is that in this second decade of the 21st Century, no state actor has proposed additional nuclear tests to validate computer models that have been developed over the past 4 to 5 decades which have been spruiked by vested interests to negate the need for actual physical tests...
How is it that computer modelling on one hand (nuclear detonations) is deemed precise and accurate, yet robust rigorously peer reviewed computer modelling for anthropogenic climate change is viewed with distrust and scientific scepticism

20:30 the Cold War started when Chrchill told his Fulton speech about Iron Curtain. Or if you which when USA started the Manhattan Project or dropped the atomic bomb on Japan. But not when the soviets entered the nuclear arm race as second part.
What about the PortChicago incident?
65 yrs ago, the biggest nuclear weapon in the US arsenal was accidentally dropped 5 miles south of Albuquerque, New Mexico. On May 27, 1957, a Mark 17 H-bomb was accidentally dropped from a B-36 Peacemaker on it’s way to Kirtland AFB.
lost one out of a crashed B-36 up in Canada somewhere early on...that's when they started to put together those nest teams......

People be so 'tupid!
Two interesting factlets:
1) The Tsar Bomba was the USSR's reply to Castle Bravo. Kruschev basically went to Andre Sakharov and told him to build a 100 megaton bomb to shut the Western Imperialist Pigs up. In the end Sakharov bottled it and changed the final stage of the bomb to a lead shield, so it ended up with a yield of "only" 50 megatons. And it was still powerful enough to blow windows out and knock down fragile structures FIVE HUNDRED MILES AWAY.
2) The contamination of the Japanese fishing boat from the Castle Bravo detonation was the inspiration behind the original 1954 'Godzilla' movie. Since Japan was still under US control the Japanese couldn't really protest, so to get around the censors the concept of nuclear weapons was re-imagined as a giant radioactive monster.
The boat was a tuna fishing vessel called 'The Lucky Dragon'. They had to stop catching and eating Tuna or any other fish at that time around that area too
They put ships around 1 so they tested everything but if hate to be the guy with a shovel as the clean up crew lol
I am a real nuclear engineer. I hold 3 engineering degrees. I am now retired but spent my career in research the use of nuclear potential for biomedical, energy, and other uses. I was deeply involved with studies to evaluate the correlation between the different types of radiation exposures and the biological consequences or health effects. For classification reasons, the vast majority of information regarding nuclear weapons and nuclear testing is classified, and, therefore, is not available to the general public. All of the information that you referenced was obtained from highly unreliable sources and is simply wrong. The staff at the Department of Defense has very little information regarding nuclear weapons and/or nuclear weapons testing. Journalist, and the "public" are far less reliable... It's unfortunate that people with absolutely no understanding of nuclear engineering attempt to make such erroneous documentaries. They begin with assumptions and guesses made by journalists and then convert those erroneous guesses into erroneous, supposed facts. You made no attempt to determine the truth about yields and other information that remain classified. You reported everything as facts when the truth is you were/are wrong in every case. You simply puppet incorrect information that has been promoted by unreliable sources. While I do know the correct numbers and information, I am unable to provide any more information due to my security clarences. Sensationalism does sell, but the use of lies or false data is most unfortunate and destructive. There are too many errors in this video for me to address at this time. Let's begin with fundamentals. You make many false claims regarding radiation exposure. In order to correlate exposure, you need to understand the type of radiation and the level of that radiation. In the case of strategic nuclear weapons, the area where the initial radiation is "dangerous" is well within the fatal blast zone, which means that no one, who was radiated to any significant degree would survive the blast wave. Hence, if you do not die from the blast over pressure the radiation level, which is predominantly gamma, would not be hazardous. (At most you would receive a sunburn...which is still unlikely.) Also, you use adjectives regarding radiation hazards which are, in fact, incorrect. You state that the fallout from nuclear testing was extremely dangerous (to the public health), which is certainly not true. In fact, the resulting statistical analysis has proven the opposite. There is an inverse correlation between background radiation levels and cancer death. In other words, areas with the lowest background radiation levels statistically have the highest incidence of cancer deaths. While I would never suggest that anyone be intentionally exposed to radiation, your claims are simply wrong. Another obvious error is the fact that ALL US bombs (after the little boy and fat man) were designed such that they could not detonate with nuclear yield if dropped from an aircraft. (It was virtually impossible - as demonstrated in later accidents.) Your presentation on the reactor accidents is even worse. The Chernobyl reactor reactor was not primarily a "power reactor". It was designed to generate plutonium 239. In addition, it was a totally different type of reactor than is used in all Western countries. Your descriptions of the incident were totally wrong. [As a reactor expert (designing reactors to produce medical nuclear materials), I was directly involved in the post accident analysis.] This type of reactor is only used for the production of plutonium 239, and the type/ design was/is extremely unstable and should never have been built at the levels required for a power reactor. (It was a graphite moderated, fast flux reactor.) The Soviets were operating the reactor in a region of instability which is what caused the explosion. However, your description of the resulting radiation levels is absolutely wrong. The primary health concern is rare-earth toxicity and not radiation. (The Gemma-producing Is ceasium-137 and strontium-90 died out very quickly. The toxicity of the TRU elements was the actual greatest health issue after the initial decay period of the fission elements. ) The Japanese accident was caused by overt hubris on the part of the Japanese. They had been warned numerous times about the hazards associated with their specific design. After working with Doctor Edward Teller at Stanford University (Graduate School) on the 3 mile island incident, I felt compelled to communicate my concerns directly with the Japanese engineers in 1985. We were concerned for 2 reasons. 1st - it was incredibly irresponsible if not stupid to place the emergency generator in the basement of any nuclear power plant; worse yet, one located on the ocean! 2nd - It was extremely foolish to not provide a mechanism to vent the reactor pressure vessel from the over-pressure of a LOCA incident. The actual over-pressure "failure" was caused by the fact that they were unable to vent their power reactor which was the actual cause of the over-pressure explosion. (We did not have any injuries or deaths resulting from 3 mile island specifically because we were able to vent the reactor pressure vessel. It might be interesting to note that (As determined in president Carter's commission report) the only hazard to public health from 3 mile island was "anxiety caused by fallacious news reports." This is why erroneous videos such as this are dangerous to public health!!!) The Japanese had been warned numerous times but failed to act. To make matters worse, they dramatically overstated the resulting radiation hazards to obtain hundreds of millions of dollars in aid that they did not deserve. The relatively minor tritium exposure was NOT hazardous as it was barely above "background" for naturally-occurring tridium. [Tritium or heavy hydrogen (H-3) decays with a low energy Beta emission which is not hazardous at the levels experienced at the levels experienced. It decays to helium which is which is totally harmless.] The alpha "radiation" detected at the US naval vessels had nothing to do with the power reactor incident as it was caused by the forest fires and other fires that resulted from the tsunami. (The resulting naturally-occurring thorium released is common with forest fires and was the source of the radiation out at sea and had nothing to do with the reactor.) Your claim that Nazi Germany was involved with nuclear weapons research is absolute nonsense. Hitler referred to nuclear physics as "Jewish science" and did not allow any research in that area. (The incorrect reference was included in the letter from Albert Einstein to FDR solely to increase the perceived danger.) Germany did not possess the materials, the equipment, nor the reactors to enrich uranium or create plutonium. It is irresponsible to simply pass on information you obtained from unreliable sources. Finally, it was obvious to me that you have no idea as to the truth regarding Nuclear weapon's testing at NTS when you repeatedly referred to the Department of Defense or DOD as they were not involved in any testing after the creation of the atomic energy commission or AEC. I certainly agree that the need for nuclear weapons was grossly overstated, and I would certainly have preferred that they had never been developed. But, I also believe that it's most unfortunate that we have been forced to spend obscene amounts of money on policing, prisons, and the military. It's a sad reality resulting from the same level of evil in our world. However, we have historically witnessed the dangerous consequences of failing to possess a strong military and a strong Criminal Justice system. [We have recently witnessed (1) Russia's evil invasion of Ukraine (due to our failure to properly protect Ukraine per our agreement with them after they gave up their nukes), and (2) the insane numbers of murders and destruction after police departments were defunded and DA's went soft on criminals. All of the tens of thousands of deaths are the fault of the United States!] The consequences of a weak military policy and weak criminal Justice system have been obvious. One final comment is the fact to the fact that nuclear weapons whenever my primary concern big concern regarding weapons of mass destruction mass destruction as they are fairly easy to detect and trace. It's the chemical and biological weapons that concern me. They are relatively easy to create and easy to hide. My greatest concern is the reality it's a reality that they have been... and will continue to be... used by very evil people and regimes!!! Please remove this erroneous video. I thank you!
@ Rick Flores… I truly appreciate you for sharing your thoughts and concerns about this most inappropriate video. It’s clearly based on hype designed to sensationalize the content rather than the presentation of facts.
Unfortunately, modern society is more concerned with being entertained by the online insanity rather than being educated about one of the real and potentially evil forces created by mankind.
The content of your comments speaks volumes about your integrity and sincerity. The specific details clearly validates your credentials. Surely I’m not the only person to read this but it’s been posted for a month and mine is the first and only comment so far.
How can people be so infatuated with tabloid bullshit and totally ignorant of reality based upon the facts ?
Thank you for taking the time to add your input
Thank you for elaborating on the deficiencies of this lame pseudo-documentary. But be sure to check out his "The Earth is Flat" and "We Never Went to the Moon" videos!
Hi, I was going to reply in depth to your comment above, but if it's true you're the author of "The Earth Is Flat" videos like stated in one of the other replies, you lost all credibility with me. It's a well-known fact that Nazi Germany was involved in trying to put together a nuclear program, but were several years away from succeeding. I believe it was the History Channel that put together a documentary on the recovery of a ship that sunk carrying "heavy water", the first step in putting together something nuclear.
And radiation can definitely affect people long-term outside the blast zone.
What I say next I swear is the truth.
Organizations continued to monitor the survivors of the two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan for the rest of their lives. In the late '60's and very early '70's, long before the invention of personal computers, typing/word processing was done on very expensive dedicated computer/word processors only big budget organizations could possibly afford. I repaired those machines for a living. And that included some in downtown Los Angeles. And sometimes you have to read part of a document to diagnose a problem, especially an intermittent problem - software problem, software glitch, computer hardware problem, printer problem, operator typing error or not understanding how to do something, or a combination of these problems.
As I was reading an output document trying to diagnose the problem, I read the following: as a result of the radiation damage, this person had webs of skin that grew between his fingers, fingers and thumbs and between his toes. The document went on to say the person has had surgery to remove the skin but it grows back.
I don't remember the name of the organization, but I think it had a Japanese name. And I don't know how secret the document was supposed to be. But reading something like that in a company whose business it was to track that type of happening is not something a young technician ever forgets.
Your reaction is understandable, but then do consider that this video was based on the best data available to the public, with all of the real data hidden behind layers of classification. If this video contains false information (and surely it does), then this is more the fault of the P.R. people in government than the intent or irresponsibility of the maker of this video.

Regarding the lake in #16, see "heavy water." That is probably what they were actually intending to make.
Your list is confusing. First You have a test that resulted in actual human deaths lower in the list than one with pods and Second Fukushima wasn’t a test, it was a tsunami that happened to hit the worst place, at least Chernobyl was caused because of a test. Third you didn’t even cover the weapon lost in Georgia, that’s still lost today… How does loss of life not make something worse? The B-52 was a non issue compared to the Georgia incident (I mean a nuke is still missing) and while people died, they died because of a plane crash not a nuclear related issue.
Chernobyl may have been a "test" of the systems designed to prevent runaway reactions in the pile, but it wasn't a "nuclear yest per-say"

A lot of Nuclear materials have a half live of a couple million years. Meaning those areas are basically permanently radiated.
the half-lives of radioactive elements...
Uranium-238 -> Lead-206 -> 4.5 billion years
Uranium-235 -> Lead-207 -> 704 million years
Thorium-232 -> Lead-208 -> 14.0 billion years
Rubidium-87 -> Strontium-87 -> 48.8 billion years
The earth is just 4.5 billion years... and our sun is atleast a third-generation star...
Your dealing with people who are obsessed with creating ever more ingenious ways to kill as many people as possible, the environment isn't even a consideration.
Radiation output is basically a net output situation. What is really dangerous are those materials with SHORT HALF lives, so all the radioactive material releases its output very quickly. It's like the silliness that says " the Amazon forest contains the same energy as all the nuclear weapons on earth" Yes, it does. IF you can release it at once.! Released over millions of years, and its harmless. Nothing humanity does really increase radiation on the planet. All the uranium already exists slowly releasing energy for billions of years. All humans do is concentrate it, spread it around the earth and expose people to it.
Million year half lives are essentially very low levels of radiation. The naturally produced background radiation produced by the rocks on which your house is built is of more danger.
Actually the isotopes with long half-lives are way less dangerous than the ones produced immediately after a nuclear blast. The ones that have a half-life of hours to weeks. Iodine 131 for example. Those are screamingly radioactive and the most likely to do serious harm. Think about it. If you have two elements undergoing radioactive decay, one with a half-life of a billion years and one of 7 days, the one where half of it decays in 7 days, releasing all the energetic alpha and beta particles, xrays and gamma rays that come with it is MUCH worse than one that takes a billion years to do the same. Sure those areas likely also have isotopes with intermediate half-lives of decades to centuries, but they aren’t PERMANENTLY irradiated. Human settlement may not be recommended in our lifetime but eventually radiation levels won’t be too much higher than the average background level.
Cancer all over the world. What is the course? All these tests with nuclear bombs left fall-out and this has been transported by the wind all over the world. This is an important example for getting cancer.
With all the associated health issues the victims of this test endured and losing their home who also didnt know they were the subject of the test it's interesting seeing all people have to say is how excellent the video quality is.???
I watched this entire video and my only thought was.... I dropped the biggest bomb last week. Thanks Taco Bell.
Asking for likes and my subscription is what people shouldn't do anymore especially at the beginning of your video. Stop doing it because it's so annoying. Make good videos and then people like and subscribe anyways and comeback for more. Also throwing in nuclear power plants with actual nuclear bombs is misleading. Power plants are not nuclear bombs and vice versa. It just adds to the already misleading fear around power plants that helps nobody.
Nukes have always been portrayed with a comedic over the top nature. From dr strangelove to the pc game harvester. Why? Because its ridiculous. The idea of untested, unknown, and unbelievably destructive weapons used on, not our enemies, but our planet. Out of cowardice of a real firefight, or war? Not saying wars good or should be fought napolean style, but nukes are worse. Everything suffers. The fact that so many have been irradiated, servicemen, john wayne, entire villages in russian territories adds to this ridiculous, almost dark comediac angle. From homers nuclear meltdowns in the simpsons to the intro of phil colins video, nukes are dark comedy. The idea of doing this, to your planet, to your own people, its so insane, its so evil, its so over the top, it is almost funny.
Well nukes stop wars from happening in the first place, and about japan way more people would have died if and invasion had happened. The planet is fine with nukes, look at the area around chernobyl there are more animals there now that ever before, and about 800 people never left back in 1986, it really issent as bad as the media wants you to think it is.
Just like the CO2/Climate Change scare. There isn't a word of truth in the CO2 'Greenhouse Effect'. The only atmospheric change that impacts Earth's surface temperature is the degree of cloud cover.

@@dj33036 theres actually not really any significant concrete proof that it wasn't.
Considering the state of the solar system at the time of the earths formation, its entirely possible that it only took 6 days for enough mass to accumulate to form an earth sized planet and for it to adequately cool to the point of being solid or mostly solid.
So technically yes, it is possible.

I mean. When they were going to test the first Nuclear bomb they theorized that the reaction would cause every atom in the atmosphere to start a chain reaction of atom splitting and engulf the entire planet in a sheet of plasma fire, then said "We'll never know till we try" And did the test anyways.
That's bullshit. Get tired of that stupid story.
ya it was like a billion to one theory.
But was that just a theory that was proven wrong or could it actually happen?
Seems similar to the Large Hadron Collider. Very small chance of something very bad.
