  • This is the world's most popular video about the hydrogen bomb!
    On 22 November 1955, the Soviet Union conducted its first hydrogen bomb test, code-named RDS-37, at the Semipalatinsk Test Site. The RDS-37 was dropped from a Tupolev Tu-16 bomber and detonated at an altitude of 1550 m with a yield of 1.6 Megatons.

      Instead of one big bomb you have multiple smaller warheads that probably have a similar payload to the one in the video falling on separate targets simultaneously.

      Certainly a lot of improvements to the systems of delivering these things. They're all ICBMs now.
      Dunno if anyone is motivated to keep making the explosions bigger. Almost would be making more sense to make them smaller to spread the plutonium across more warheads. That could hit more intentional targets.
      USA hitting a big Japanese city with a nuke was very effective when it was one-sided. In a conflict where both sides have nuke I wonder if they still just bomb cities.. Not like the other side would give up over that, they would just do the exact same thing in return. Mass elimination of military and industry targets would seem more like the winning move, as much as anyone could "win" after nukes start flying everywhere.

    RDS-37 is not a Tsar bomba! RDS-37 was the Soviet Union's first two-stage hydrogen bomb, first tested on 22 November 1955. The weapon had a nominal yield of approximately 3 megatons. It was scaled down to 1.6 megatons for the live test. The weapon was air-dropped at Semipalatinsk Test Site, Kazakhstan, making it the first air-dropped two-stage thermonuclear test.

These explosions from the 1960's are in megatons, nukes today are in kilotons, this is NOT an achievement, the whole point of MAD was that a nuclear war was unwinnable, well now all ICBMs are basically long range tactical weapons, we no longer have the power to level cities, and that's something to be afraid of, because now more than ever, nuclear war is winnable, and it shouldn't be.

      @user-lv7ph7hs7l 21 день назад

      You can tell them apart easily, Tsar is towards the right of the frame, the camera aim was a little off, RDS 37 is in the middle. Otherwise they do look quite similar, though one was much bigger. Probably has to do with the atmospheric conditions in the test area, they make it look way more terrifying than the dry desert air in US tests. All that humidity in the air makes the spectacular clouds.

    Fun Fact: The Mushroom Cloud from the Tsar Bomba was taller than Mount Everest, and shattered windows all the way in Norway. The bomb was also HALF the yield that the Soviets originally wanted to use.
    Edit because I keep getting notifications from people trying to correct me: I'm well aware that the bomb depicted in this particular video is *not* the Tsar Bomba; my original comment was made so that I could share information about the highest yield nuclear device ever detonated by humanity (as of the date of this edit) to people who were unaware of said information. I did so because I wanted to spark interest in the subject, hoping people would research the subject, because I personally believe that people should be aware the destructive capabilities of weapons capable of causing the extinction of our species. Also, I'm a bit of a history nerd and just wanted to share it because to me personally, reading about the history of two superpowers competing to see who can make the biggest explosion as part of a wider dxxx-measuring contest is interesting.

    Interesting fact, the sound of the blast is synced up in post production. If you were an observer standing where the camera was, you'd hear very little until the blast wave hit around the 1 minute mark. Of course, this would look odd so at some point someone brought the blast sound forward to occur at the same time as the detonation.

      I wish they would use realistic sound. It would actually be more impressive if you saw the flash in utter silence and the noise came later.
      I once saw a TV mock-up of what actually happens in a nuclear explosion if you're some miles from the hypocentre. There was a burning bright light and people ran around on fire and screaming. The building didn't actually get blown apart until the blast struck more than 10 seconds later. I was about 12 years old when I watched this in the early 80s and it's stuck in my head ever since.

      The USA and Russia both only “officially” use a few megaton yield bombs with a ton of kiloton tactical weapons. The Russian Tsar Bomba could have been 100 megatons but it was only 50, ironically the pilots almost didn’t escape the testing zone. There was a hypothetical “bigger bomb” than the Hydrogen Bomb that our guys wanted to make but they ruled it would be too crazy.

    • @Uktarget67
      @Uktarget67 5 лет назад +20

      I think the us still mount a 1 megaton warhead on the minute man missiles but for the most part warheads are typically in the 450 kiloton range allowing a missile to carry more, China used to have a 25 mt ICBM. These day with precision MIRV's with missiles carrying 8-10 warheads it makes the use of multi megaton munitions redundant though they would still be used as an EMP strike as a precursor to a nuclear assault to try and blind the enemies radar tracking and communications.

      R-36M (SS-18) series of missiles would be the most fearsome Russian variants in my memory banks. In MIRV mode it carries 10 independent warheads beteen 5 to 700 Kilotons, or a single warhead of 20 Megaton. The U.S had a version with 300K warheads that is currently decomissioned.
      Currently the Russians have 46 of the type 15A18M that can carry up to 20 warheads, each independent. It is pretty much bye bye if they hit the switch.

      They detonated about 2 miles above the atmosphere for Max damage on the ground though it wouldn't of done as much more damage then the ones dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima by Americans. Why is this the bomb is a thousand times more stronger how?
      It's too powerful and I guess the power that comes out in the Shockwave prevents a lot of the power from flowing down. It blew up and kind of created a safety net or like a fabric of space-time if you will lol!
      You would have to blow it up much closer to the ground which makes it
      easily interceptable, but BOY IS IT SWEET TO WATCH AND SEE THE NUMBERS LOL!

      And of course just having military power doesn't mean that you can overcome everything just for example:- take USSR which was the strongest military power mankind has ever known in the entire history of it's existence and with the largest and most sophisticated nuclear arsanal consisting of the most dangerous and destructive weapons imaginable still broke apart into 15 republics without a single shot fired and at that time neither it's world stongest military nor it's nucler arsenal was able to prevent that from happening.
