Now....always have been, this video from 1986 is probably before most readers and viewers were even born. Exception being myself, born in 70s of course, and those older than I. 🇺🇲 United We Stand, The Rest Is, Not An Option!
Looks like something you'd see playing on a display TV inside a department store window in Robocop...after it cuts into an "I'll buy that for a dollar!" commercial.
I was involved with the Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness program from 1999 to 2013. FEMA prepared several video presentations of this type to help train Emergency Responders and Emergency Managers understand how an event would escalate, and how response should be done. FEMA also created a multi-day video exercise involving the Columbia River Dams, with an initial failure of Grand Coolie Dam, and the events that would unfold downstream. I was also invited to the Nevada Test Site in October 2020, where the preparations for Municipal response to the event shown could be practiced by local, County, and State teams. Management Teams have to understand how an Event might look, so that planning, preparations and exercises are realistic.
Thank you for your help. I hate it when conspiracy theorists go off about why these things are created. Nevertheless, these are fun and fascinating to listen to and write about as speculative fiction.
In terms of fear factor, this pales next to Threads, but it reminds me of the truly amazing special feature from the Dawn of the Dead remake - a live broadcast as the zombie apocalypse unfolds. It's surely the greatest special feature of all time.
As funny as the loss of life wouldn’t be, this was hilariously bad. The acting, the nearly indiscernible speech of the helicopter reporter, the constant unrealistic pondering of the anchor. Referring to a radio connection as a microwave connection. I may not have alive in 86’, but I doubt the news was this corny and poorly conceived.
This isn’t the first exercise that’s done this type of thing. There’s always a background component called “the road to war”. Tells the whole story. This wasn’t intended to deceive the public.
@@JOEY-xj4ds Yeah, me too. If they'd spent a fortune on special effects and production value, I'd be less ok with it, but it's ok once in a while for the govt to do something cheesy, like FEMA's zombie apocalypse pamphlet.
Most people don't know but this is when parallel universe was created by the shadow government to avoid this tragedy. And no one will be leave me till like 60 years from now when I die chocking on not released yet NyQuil flavoured hot pocket.
Midwestern city...heart of America...psychological terror to hit the homeland so deep while also hitting a city big enough to make a statement in regards to death toll w/o effecting financial centers like Wall Street.
@@libertylivesin1776 I can't remember exactly what the video was saying but your explanation makes very good sense. I guess maybe I just wondered why, of all places available, that the video chose that city.
@@lesliekendall5668in the late 80s it was one of the fastest growing cities in the country. Also even today the Defense Finance and Accounting Service is located at Fort Benjamin Harrison on the city’s northeast side. All DoD personnel paychecks flow through that site as well as retired DoD and major payment to any DoD Contractors such as Boeing and Raytheon. Even if only the immediate downtown were destroyed as Ft Harrison lies several miles away the fallout that would ensue would shut that down and cause massive economic chaos. That’s why if a nuclear war ever broke out Indianapolis would most likely be a primary target
As the internet live streaming ability there is 6-10 second delay on live stream from city 260miles over hard cellular so video link of 1986 would have been since those day it fancy microwave from helicopter it unknown if was that slower or possible? as for shock wave: history reading been clock at 160 mph if they outside metro area DT timing off 🤔
John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

Bro even the government is making analogue horror now
Bro? Oh, it is to laugh.

United We Stand, The Rest Is, Not An Option!
This is like a cutscene from a 90’s RTS
Looks like something you'd see playing on a display TV inside a department store window in Robocop...after it cuts into an "I'll buy that for a dollar!" commercial.
Bro saw a whole ass mushroom cloud and didn’t even stutter
Very cheesy and very 80's. I love it.
Enough cheese to launch a thousand pizzas. 😊

Do you know where to find more of these?
why did u work for them? doesn't that make u a traitor
@@chownful What a bizarre comment this is.

This is absolutely terrifying especially considering i literally live in Indiana

Threads was absolute garbage.
@@kingduckford are you serious? It’s a must-watch for everyone. Grim as fuck.
@@eccremocarpusscaber5159Threads was. F*ckin nightmare that was really well done.
If you haven't seen "Special Bulletin," I *highly* recommend it.
@@kingduckfordyou gotta be the only account I’ve ever read that’s said Threads was garbage
When the world was analog, what is now called "analog horror" was just "horror".
This can be a analog horror video *ANYTIME* .
RIP chooper 9
The reporters response to Anne’s demise as pretty nonchalant
Jeff Schwartz: “That was Ann Miller, who just got vaporized by a nuclear explosion.”
Dude looks and sounds EXACTLY like Ron Bugendy!😊
He actually reminds me of a cheesy Porn Star from the 1970’s
Stay Classy Indianapolis!!
Matt Novak's upload of teh whole thing has more views than the Gizmodo video
Obviously won’t be getting a daytime Emmy award
Countdown to Looking Glass and Special Bulletin did it better
countdown to looking glass is really good
Agreed 😊
Since the radio broadcast of War of the Worlds in the 30s anything is possible..
As funny as the loss of life wouldn’t be, this was hilariously bad.

@@mcelravys Exactly - the audience for this presentation was Federal, State, and Local Emergency Personnel and Managers.
Im ron burgundy? Stay safe Indianapolis
😅
Nice to know what our taxes are being used for
I’m surprisingly okay with this
@@JOEY-xj4ds Yeah, me too. If they'd spent a fortune on special effects and production value, I'd be less ok with it, but it's ok once in a while for the govt to do something cheesy, like FEMA's zombie apocalypse pamphlet.
Somehow, even doing this, they seemed less prepared than japanese news stations.
“Special Bulletin” that TV movie wasn’t too far off after all.
This really messes with me.
Its not april 1st yet
As fake as the Will Smith slap. LOL!
Finally, someone who agrees that the slap was fake!!
Special Bulletin is still hands down a great movie
The bad acting skills... The terrific mustache... Only one detail missing and he could ve been the greatest 80s porn star.
bad acting, or playing "mediocre daytime TV news anchor" really well?
Mandela Effect.
Makes ya wonder about a time-line split
The real question is, why would any power waste a nuke on Indianapolis? It's a shithole already.
Why wouldn’t you?
This mans mustache has won more awards than him
His hair didn’t survive
Although legend has it that there is a disembodied mustache still floating around the streets of Downtown Indianapolis to this very day...
Someone watched Special Bulletin.
Most people don't know but this is when parallel universe was created by the shadow government to avoid this tragedy. And no one will be leave me till like 60 years from now when I die chocking on not released yet NyQuil flavoured hot pocket.
Or we could just watch a hollywood movie.
Indianapolis?? You can't be serious.

I could see "white supremacists" pulling off a stunt like this.
Setting off a nuclear bomb? You think they're that sophisticated?

wow this is beautiful I am probably going to watch this everyday-
"Special Report" did it better.

Dont force religious propaganda onto people
@@slvtfordice100it ain’t propaganda it literally is a verse in the Bible that he seem to fit. Not deception
I am *so* glad your delusions keep you warm, safe, fed and comfortable at night.
