“Mankind invented the atomic bomb, but no mouse would ever construct a mousetrap.” Albert Einstein
A man with beautiful speech
I dont get it... Someone plz explain
@Michael Somes they can’t but that’s not the point, the point is that if they could they would still not do it.
@@jotarokujo9587 who says that really ?
@@solinvictus2045 I’m kinda saying the wisdom is not really true since a rat doesn’t have the intellect to make a mousetrap
I used to work with a guy who was one of those 2000 marines that got to witness those 1957 tests up close and personal. I will never forget the way he used to describe just how astonishingly beautiful they were to watch. Just bursts of color and light that the films never did justice to. The way he talked about them was haunting. Needless to say he passed away in the late 80's suffering from pretty much every form of cancer known to medicine. Describing the beauty in those bombs to the end.
Yeah, and my dogs friend from down the street knew a guy that landed on the moon. Nukes are absolute deception...
@@flatearth6057 🤡
Whoa, I would love to watch one explode. In a field of nothing around, of course.
@@6rendomadeit Shut up!!
Programmed to speak positively about the nukes despite the searing pain and devastation he suffered as a result of the exposure. Brain washed.
I worked for an old marine who was there at the Hood test. He said he could see his hand bones through his closed eyes.
damn that's eerie
Fuckin riddle me that!!!! 😳😳😳
Lol
Did it bend his *boner?*
Thats alot of radiation
“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” - Albert Einstein
In Africa many battles are fought with sticks and stones to this day, and always will be because of about a 70 iq on the higher end
Sasha Williams: Still a higher IQ than you.
Deep but true
Dan K woe. If you think about what he said... that’s crazy
Sasha Williams they use AK-47 and stuff since 1950's the fuck are you talking about
"Hey Cletus how ya wanna mine down here?" "Let's use a fucking nuke"
you made my day
LMAO.
The USSR experimented with using nukes to drill for oil. The crazy transcends geography and race.
They used a nuke to make a lake.
YUP >:(
There's something horrifically beautiful about watching nuclear explosions.
I would love to have the power to... wonder if I use or not. It may depend on MY HUMOR in regards to the rest of the world. What a nice thing to have! You can't blame them...!!!
+ Artyom Chyornyj If you look at yourself deep enough you wouldn'1t blame them
its becuse of the power,the furnace of our sun, molded by our hands,to our petty needs,a astronomic level of energy,used in such a futile way,its awe lays in the power and the absurd of such creation
Definitely. I would loved to of watched one live, from a safe distance of course. Like the Baker shot from Operation Crossroads.
But I never want to see them used on anyone. Just the thought that if a 50 megaton bomb is dropped in the right spot 1 - 2 million people will be killed in like 15 - 30 seconds. At least 500,000 will be vaporized in 3 seconds.
Yes there is.
I worked in the Marshall Islands for several years. Dove Bikini Lagoon in 91 & stood on the deck of the USS Saratoga. Rode my skateboard down the Dome on Runit Island in 93. Coconuts at these test sites still contained lethal doses of Strodium 90 even 50 years after the tests.
People are still affected by that to this day. Especially in the Marshalls. Karma will get its turn👌🏽
@@derekbryant1172 Lmao. Who will get this karma?
@@kerel4417 well well well...
@@kerel4417 the World
Strontium, not "Strodium".
The madness of humanity how we've lasted this long is a miracle.
There are two things not discussed in the video.
1. The fallout is not localized. When radioactive dust goes high enough it gets into a "global" jetstream and spreads over large sections of the planet.
2. The planet is a magnet, the EMP produced affects the ionophere and the magnetosphere, and the damage could be permanent and cumulative.
FALLOUT is named not for any reason. Radiation that is not gamma, particles, FALL TO THE GROUND WITH THE ADVENT OF GRAVITY. It is not a smoke which compensates the atmospheric weight and spreads through like that... noooo
No one cares.
it's crazy seeing the nukes in their "true" form when detonated from high altitude... we mostly see mushrooms clouds, but the sphere is crucial.
Thank the sun for that perfect circle shape.
@@flatearth6057 Thank the Sun? The Sun is a nearly perfect sphere for different reasons than these nuclear explosions are if that's what you're saying.
So much energy released from a so small particles like atoms.....amazing
Tolis Pap no thats not amazing if they drop one of the biggest nucleair we are dead then Lets see if you call iT than amazing

Yup they radioactived the sea but SpongeBob is still alive somehow and I hope there is no world War 3 because WAR IS HELLLL
And many of the people there getting acute radiation sickness
**These videos often fail to give a proper sense of the TRUE SCALE of the bombs power because they are usually recorded in large featureless areas with no points of reference. I wish in some of these tests, they placed large every day objects around the test site, such as tower blocks , football fields and houses etc so we could get a true scale sense of the size of the blasts **
There's one where they surround the area with out-of-service, or captured ships of various sizes (and submarines, which you can't see, of course) but the blast makes them look like toys.
Check out the water detonations in the Pacific with ships around it being snapped in half like toothpicks. It's an awesome, yet scary power.
Search for “Baker shot”
Best view for relative scale.
And even that comparatively smaller yield bomb still created a huge column/ cloud.

Creepy as fuck.Suits nuclear
horror theme quite well 👌
@@sundiatakeitadude2177 how can it be countless minutes when you know how many minutes it was?
People use to go to Vegas and watch them in the distance.
They did?? They weren't all secret, like "nothing to see here, move along people.." *unbelievably massive explosion in background*
I was driving on Las Vegas Blvd. S. one time during an explosion at the test site, supposedly 90 miles away - an underground test, after the treaty was signed banning above ground tests and the light poles were swaying back and forth, I'll never forget that.
Now THAT was a huge gamble! ;)
I was in Vegas in august a few years back and we got to see one and feel it lol. Not much a little rumble. The same day they blew up an old hotel out there. We were across the street maybe a half a block. Just the dynamite they used was an Intense shockwave
@@ryanyoung9290 whatever you saw/felt the first time wasn't a nuclear test, haven't been any of those since the 80's, maybe early 90's.
wtffffff the high-altitude one looked like a sun growing
fucking terrifying
Well, the sun is basically a fusion reactor in zero-G.
I'm glad the the internet has made these detonations visible again. Between about 1975 and 2000, too many people were ignorant about nuclear burst effects. I think a healthy fear of nuclear war is a good thing.
Mr president I don’t think we need these islands.
President: get me the case
The scary thing is, beirut's explosion was nothing compared to the yield of these nuclear bombs.
Bruh...Russia has a bomb that is bigger then this 100 times....lol...go research.

Yawn... fell out of my cradle at that
When I was a kid in the late 1940's, these nuclear explosions were shown live on TV around 5 a.m. I used to get up early just to watch them.
I thought castle bravo was cool....
Jesus Christ! Really?
Crazy, really. But in a strange way, it'd be similar to watching a shuttle launch on TV, in that it's a demonstration of national tech capabilities. Interestingly, you could also visit Vegas in those days, and if "you were lucky" you could see test detonations across the mountains on a clear day. This was a Vegas "tourism feature". Eek!
FOREVER KNIGHT i call bullshit
Tell me more about how you watched the than classified tests on TV (which only really took of after WW2) in the 1940s. Especially since the first nuclear bomb test was only conducted 1945 (trinity).
we wonder why cancer spiked starting in the 50s
surely it isn't because everyone started getting desk jobs and ate deep fried spam and white bread sandwiches.
Yes and it's still rising it might take 100 years or more for the area not to show radiation but people forget there is still poison all around the trees the soil the freshwater lakes & it's spreads all over the world. it might not be showing the radiation in the scanners. But it's still around the poison it's just spread out. That's why cancer is still rising from all those nukes
Our maybe it is because every since then we have been better at detecting it
The music made this haunting and terrifying...
What is the name of this song.
I absolutely agree, it is hauntingly enchanting
*channel's name checks out*
hauntingly annoying.
obscured by writing.
I don't know why, but the sight of these giant explosions always just make me... sad. It's sad that humanity was pushed into making these, and it's even sadder that we HAVE used them against ourselves.
Fear and mind control. Nothing more...
@@flatearth6057 I really don't want to hear it from someone who thinks the earth is flat. Seriously. Go away. Begone. Shoo. Go jump off the edge of the world or something.
I was born in the 50's so I grew up with this, doing the "duck and cover" drills in school (as if a 1/2 inch thick plywood desktop would protect us from a nuclear bomb). Our teachers extolled the wonders of nuclear power, and how someday it would replace dirty, inefficient fossil fuels and power a clean planet, and life would be all unicorns and rainbows. Didn't work out that way though.
Great detailed video! Keep up the great work :)
"TRINITY and BEYOND" is the DEFINITIVE atomic bomb movie. it has dozens of atomic bomb detonations and its soundtrack is unreal
indeed. especially the very last one with the chinese
Sea Hawks One of my all time favourite documentaries!
And Captain Kirk narrated it. Great movie.
The Soviet "Tsar Bomba" hydrogen fusion bomb was the largest one humans have ever tested at around 50MTons, even they got scared from its awesome power and never tested another one as large, only about half its size.
@@BillAnt ok but do somebody asked about tsar bomba???
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
huh, you know this was actually made to be used on other human beings. can you imagine? it's actually madness
The one dropped in Japan is 1/20 of the biggest one right now, and I’ll bet we have secret bigger ones
Still have about 4000 of em pointed at us, ready to go, at a seconds notice..
Not if you were attempting to beat the Nazis to the end result. People NEVER seem to factor that into the reason the nuclear bomb was developed. BTW - the scientists brought the bomb to the government. The government didn't bring the bomb to the scientists.
Great footage. I've been watching way too many nuclear bomb test videos lately..
There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
And frogs in the pools, singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white,
Robins will wear their feathery fire,
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,
If mankind perished utterly;
And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.

Funny how we "lost" the technology to go to the moon which we had in the 1970's, but we can still destroy the planet with technology we gained in the 1940's. Shows our priorities as a species
tf are you talking about, "lost" the technology to go to the moon? what the fuck? shut the fuck up. you don't know what you're talking about. we can still go to the moon. we just choose not to. you know why? because there's nothing there. there's no reason to go there anymore. been there, done that. it's a fucking rock with nothing on it, so why waste tens of millions of dollars to go there? fucking idiot.
We never lost the tech to go... There is just no reason or justification for us to go back to the Moon at this current time. There are several ongoing studies looking for resources to be mined and extracted from the moon such as Helium 3, Gold, and Platinum but until deposits are found and mapped out there is just no reason to spend billions flying off to jump around on a dead rock.
When you say "Lost" i believe you are actually referring to the lost NASA footage from several of the Moon Landings in the 60's and 70's. However, many of the tapes were in fact not lost but had been reused and had new video recorded over it.
I agree that we are a pretty messed up species and this only seems to be worsening as time goes on. It will get to a point where Humans will either grow past the need for warfare and violence or we will eradicate ourselves in the pursuit of it.
Sharpie
NASA said we " Lost the technology" to go to the moon. Referencing how we build spacecraft ; 1/16" aluminum skin that doesn't protect astronauts outside the ionosphere (540 miles above earth ) from deadly cosmic radiation .
Too many big words for you, Dullie ?
Nuclear bombs are only theoretical devices. They work on paper, but not in reality. Videos show regular explosions with heavy compositing and editing. Some are more obvious than others. For example, the image at 6:00 is just the sun with the picture's colors reversed.
Think of the better world we could've had instead of letting all that money go up in radioactive smoke.
Nikola Tesla and free energy comes to mind. We lost a whole century.
One of the most naive things I’ve read in a while.
Right, smh
Yes but if it weren’t for nukes we would already have had world war III and maybe even IV

yes but that will not happen & all the people dying of cancer & it's still growing all those nukes I'll take a thousand years for it to get back to normal. it might take a bit more then 100 years for the area not to show signs of radiation, but that's because it's just spread out. now you me your family without thinking are just hoping we don't hear that bad news.

That's awesome my great uncle was recently telling me about the test that he was at that failed and then he was at the next one and he is still happy healthy and driving his RV around the country. This is a really cool video thank you very much
Was surprised the Starfish Prime test wasn't mentioned. That being the first and only time we detonated a nuclear device in space.
Jacob Hodges And looked pretty cool.
it created a circle of radioactive material which orbited the earth for 5years. Also the emp shockwave destoryed tons of satellites-
So ... a nuclear bomb in space would be today in a time of communication extremely effective in terms of tactical conditions.
... Didn't do shit? It permanently scared our atmosphere and magnetosphere. it was the single most impactful thing humans have literally ever done to our planet. Damn, the edge lords are riding hard in this comment section.

Lol yeah
Max Berndt I'm not gonna lie but it would be cool if they shrunk it down using modern munitions technology and fit it into a ground launched artillery rocket
they have had those for over 50 years google the atomic cannon .........and although the US and NATO will never admit it we have used small squad based tactical nukes ( we also have had them almost 50 years) in the mountains of Afghanistan and and depleted uranium ( still highly radioactive) all throughout Iraq...... If you are ever in Albuquerque visit the Nuclear Museum you can see both the Atomic Cannon and squad nukes for yourself.

Haunting video. All those animals killed in those tests is something that struck me. Poisoning the ocean and killing millions of sea creatures god knows how deep down.
DaveKraft400 nothing compared to what fukushima will do
But it's better to test them before actually using them.
Corpus That was the stupidest thing I've read all week.
Ray of Lyte This is what I meant: Would you rather have nukes dropped on a city before we know how powerful they are? Or test them in a deserted area with few animals killed?
how about we not use them or develop them at all? Seriously stupid and if we ever get a lack of nuclear scientist in the military area we face the potential of having 15,000 nuclear weapons degrading and becoming a hazard or going off and nuking everything along with it.
NEAT!

>Jafromobile A nuclear bomb is far removed from being "neat."
Did anyone else find these strangely beautiful? Maybe it was the effect of the music, but if I'm going to be killed by radiation poisoning, I'd like to be close enough to experience the grandeur of the explosion.

9:20 i find this statement badass and somewhat crazy that it literally vaporized everything so .. easily
The coolest souvenir I have is when the director of the nuclear science museum in Albuquerque was selling his collection of trinitites, rocks that fused from the nuclear explosion at the Trinity Test Site. Tourists used to be able to collect those before the government put a stop to it in 1953.
Coolest souvenir I have is a piece of stone from the Raven Rock Mountain Complex, which was built in the early 50s as a nuclear bunker for the government in case the Cold War got hot. Had to get a bunch of clearances to go there and we had to sign a paper saying that if we saw anyone recognizable we'd keep it to ourselves (we didn't anyway, just some capitol police to make sure nobody went exploring). We were there to do some surveying-type stuff outside and so obviously didn't get a tour or anything, but our escort was telling us about it. It was built to accommodate something like 500 people for a decade (government officials ONLY, no families), it's got three underground lakes, it's some crazy distance beneath the surface, things like that. The doors were big enough to drive a bus through, and I remember one was open and it was just yellow sodium lights lining a tunnel as far as I could see. I think he told us the place is maintained but not actually used for anything nowadays. Like I said, we weren't privy to anything you can't look up on the internet, but it's still kind of cool to pick up that rock and think about how that was the very last line of defense for the United States.

Yea, you're right. That "Durrrrr humans should all die" nonsense isn't making things any better. It simply shows just how twisted their hatred has become. They now hate people instead of the 'actions' of people.

I knew a guy who died a few years back, met him late in his life, who was one of the participants in the military testing of effects on nuclear weapons on troops on a battlefield. He went in 4-6 hours later, and once even had one detonated live over them (relatively speaking) while in fortified trenches, to simulate how ground tactics & movement of soldiers in case of nuclear war (back then, they equiped small scale nukes to damn near everything thinking that's how future battles would be fought).
He fought in Vietnam, became a Navy Seal, and eventually retired working for the CIA after running missions in Germany & South America. He had signed all sorts of nondisclosure agreements, but he began sharing his stories when he knew the cancer was at a stage that death was imminent. It was insane hearing the hardship & suffering he endured, especially later in life due to so much radioactive contamination. Thankfully, they did provide payments & support to his family, which allowed him to peacefully accept the decisions he made.
"They weren't testing the bombs, they were trying to kill something unknown, we call it 'Gojira'"
Turk street in SF needs to eat one of these....
Nuclear explosions were detected by alien civilizations far away . And now they are coming . Curiosity lives in every living being
That's what Michael Rennie warned us about in 'The Day the Earth Stood Still'.
Had to watch this the second time just for the dark beauty of watching slow-motion nuclear test and that beautiful ambient music ! I got to say operation Dominic at 6:00 look so otherworldly I thought it was an experiment into another dimension !
6:00
I just want ppl to know dark 5 is one of the OG list channels, theres so many of em now
Excellent choice of music. Now I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds.
The explosions weren't exactly "caught on film," they were one of the most deliberately, and elaborately filmed events in history, never mind the hundreds of other ways they used to record the explosions.
Could you be more specific? I'm interested
@@Lootroq It's not like someone was just passing by with their smart phone and happened upon a nuclear test that they "caught on film." These were deliberately filmed from dozens of angles, with several types of cameras and measuring equipment, meticulously thought out to capture everything and anything that the technology allowed for at the time. They didn't want to miss a single moment of the blast. Everything had to be understood about these bombs and their destructive power.
After all, they intended use was to destroy everything. There's tragic irony in there.
Ahh I see. I thought the OP was implying something other than the obvious inaccuracy of the title
The word "caught" is used as a synonym for "capture." Meaning it was recorded on film and has nothing to do with a time element or happenstance occurrence. Stop being pedantic...
@@buckhorncortez I will if you will
Wow !! Some impressive Wilson clouds and condensation rings in the Pacific test. Operation Plumbob in Nevada was taking place the year I was born (1957). In fact I think one of the shots was done on my birthday.
Anybody have the audio title?
Desperately need it for a video!!
Who else is watching in VR?
Imagine what it would be like to have 100% efficiency, in a total annihilation nuclear explosion.
Nothing to imagine lol there will be nothing
Perfect music for this video
Honestly, if they put 1/1000 the effort into nuclear space propulsion rather than nuclear extinction, we would be unilaterally better off in this Universe.
npp is fucking dumb
