Can’t believe it’s been 9 years since this video first aired. Time flies. Very relevant this month with the release of Oppenheimer. I will be forever grateful for your work Michael!
I came back to this video specifically because I just saw Oppenheimer, to see if there was anything I might see in a new light after the movie and after several years of personal growth. Clearly I'm not the only one, pretty cool
im not even a movie fan so aint gonna watch it, glad it came back into my reccomended though, vsauce is 100% in the top creators in youtube just for how timeless and amazing his videos are, i still rewatch the ones i watched as a kid
Michael doesn’t age one bit
I think YT recommended me this vid, again, by coincidence..
@@atc_nth the visual of the nuclear bomb was kind of underwhelming it looked like you know your normal Hollywood explosion, but the movie is not about the bomb it's about Oppenheimer

Imagine hearing a plane just, loitering above your city for an hour, then later finding out one of your neighbors cities gets nuked
And that you were supposed to be killed but the clouds had a funky day

A great full length video instead of those silly "shorts" for the short attention span folks. lol By the way, at 4:04 it's hard to believe that they never found the uranium rich secondary. I would think that a Geiger would have gone off the scale even buried in the ground. Scary stuff.
@@billant2 I'd believe it was shielded so well in the combination with the soil covering it, it was not possible to find. In time as the shielding decays it will be found, I would hope they installed some permanent Geiger detectors around the possible vicinity of its location.

From this episode i figured Michael's dad had him when he was 25
This is a very weird research but ok
weird to think my dad was born only two years after his yet i'm only 19. get your game up, father.
Isn’t that kind of old for an infant?
mmmmm I tought his mother gave birth to him.
Thats normal
I just saw Oppenheimer, and I am dismayed at the ramifications of the bomb that movie points out. The fact that only a little over 1% of the Uranium 235 in Little Boy blew up just points out how unfathomable the destruction of a nuclear weapon is, and how dangerous it is for humanity to have it.
and yet they are infinitely better than a world without nuclear weapons because we would have obliterated ourselves as the cold war would have gone hot as fuck
Just wait till you learn about hydrogen bombs
What is this new to you? Almost everyone alive today has lived in the shadow of the bomb. It dictated 70 years of Cold War across the planet. And the bombs in Oppenheimer are incredibly small in comparison to the thermonuclear weapons we have today. Learn some history. Nuclear weapons are still a terrifying reality in modern conflict and we’re only getting close to a point where a country like India or Israel will use one.
Someone should make a movie out of this.
And they did it.

And to think, a good portion of the citizens of Kokura probably woke up that morning thinking, "Damn, wish it was a clear day today."

David: "I like smoke detectors"
*SNORT*
@Mike Hunt He needed the small amount of radioactive material that is located in smoke detectors
@Mike Hunt Anything radioactive can be used either as a reactor or a bomb. A radium nuke is possible, and a copernicium reactor is possible; the only thing you're seeking for to make a nuclear bomb is something unleashing heat from radiation, slowing it down and extracting energy out of it (by using turbines for example) makes it a energy producing device that technically works using radiation, = nuclear plant/reactor.
Vsauce is just one of those channels that will remain locked in the memory of youtube forever

How to survive a Nuclear Bomb:

"The enemy has, for the first time, used cruel bombs."

And so so very very sad. Especially because they are very real
Honestly, knowing unit 731 existed and was significantly overseen by Hirohito himself at the time, those words sound quite hypocritical nowadays
@@quepacho64 yeah, never forget that Japan was the aggressor in that war, and commited unspeakable crimes against humanity in China and other places on par with Nazi Germany. You cant naturally assume that all Japanese civilians were okay with this (though there also werent any significant resistance movements like in Germany), but if you would have been okay with nuking Nazi Germany, you have to also be okay with the nukes on Japan. In the end, these bombs ironically probably saved millions of American, Japanese and maybe Soviet lives
Cruel even for war
As always, the USA tries to justify the murder of civilians.
At that time saying that it was necessary to end the war, and now cataloging civilians as "unarmed combatants."

That along with the story of Kokura and how it was spared, and the classic old Micheal ramblings turning into a cohesive narrative complemented beautifully by Jake Chudnow makes this video an absolute mind joy to watch

How powerful is a Creeper explosion??
Why has almost every U tube video got a Minecraft reference...? I swear grown men make many of these comments and give away their infantile secret lives. Personally I get my fix watching Rainbow with Zippy and Bungle!!!
Well considering that uppon death creepers drop 0 to 2 gun powder, and by knowing that one TNT block requires 5 of those, we can simply calculate it. To know how much tnt is in a single block we need to have a rough estimate of how much sticks are there, and how big are they. So we take a TNT block, look at its texture and we get a number. 16 sticks. By knowing how big is a Minecraft block (1 m), we have a estimate that there are 16 tnt sticks that each are 1x0.25x0.25 meters big.
So a very, VERY rough estimate on my part would be that one creeper explosion is an equivalent to the explosion of 1 to 6 sticks of TNT that are 1x0.25x0.25 meters big. How much that is in Newtons or in explosion radius I have no idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

hoi4 gang, what is your favourite division template out there, no paritcular requirements. Mine is 19 infantry and 1 heavy tank/modern tank. The armour you get is ridiculous and against an enemy with little hard attack, it is hilariously effective as a 40 width infanty, if a little costly.
This video has become very relevant as of the release of Oppenheimer
Anyone came here after Oppenheimer?
Yes

"One in a million happens eight times a day in New York City," -- Penn Gillette.
That is the dumbest quote I've ever read.
Theres is a rogue wave so big that it crushed huge ships like chop sticks, people believed it was a legend told by generations, not long ago they found proof of it. Chance of this wave is like one in 10 trillion, but in so many waves as we have in oceans it happens almost all the time
@@whishiwhooshi5783 How is it dumb?
Suzy Lu's Forehead as dumb as your profile picture
9 out of 10 times, a 1 in a million possibility happens.
i appreciate thunderstorms a little bit more now
Just imagine. One day, there were two guys looking out their windows and complained about the weather. One was a citizen of Kokura, who was hoping for a sunny day, the other one was Charles Sweeney, who had to make a detour to drop his damn bomb.
Also the guy enjoying the nice weather over Nagasaki.
Damn.
Thunderstorms are actually very beautiful, and perhaps crucial for life...
@@surrealsupercell7217 I'm scared shitless of thunderstorms. Always have been for years now.
@@ethanbrown4656 I LOOOOVE thunderstorms. So beautiful and majestic, honestly one of my favorite of God's creations.
@@katzenware what are you talking about tornadoes are beautiful? It's a shame that they destroy but really anything in the universe can kill an destroy...
Christopher Nolan's outchere takin notes.

[Kokura news anchor]: Alright guys. Today is going to be a bit cloudy, with lows in the mid 60s and highs in the mid 80s.
[Citizen]: God damn it, another gloomy day...
That was fuckin hilarious you should get top coent
MusicMixxer i dont get it im retarted
Malik Ogletree It's basically a joke about how the people of Kokura are complaining about cloudy weather but that cloudy weather is what saved their lives
MusicMixxer [Nagasaki news anchor]: Todays forecast is hot and shitty, with continued bouts of hot and shitty, and a pissy weather front moving in from the north. And highs in the mid 15 millions.
[Citizen]: God damn it, the gloomiest day...
Hahaha. 15 millions I get it ;)
