One thing about the scene I don't know if I like or not, is how long it takes for the sound of the bomb to catch up. Thought it was a bit too long but I get it.
@@flurstyxIf I remember correctly Oppenheimer in the launch bunker was 15 miles away which is 24140 Meters, at the speed of sound of 343m/s thats ~70 seconds until you hear the blast. I'm pretty sure they left exactly 70 seconds of silence from detonation to explosion, as they should. Im not sure how far away they were exactly because they mentioned multiple distances in the movie and I didnt time the silence so I dont know how accurate my numbers are but assuming 15 miles and 70 seconds silence in the movie they did it perfectly
The fast forwards and rewinds in the timeline of events could have been limited. This may be one of those movies where you have to watch it four or five times to appreciate it more. Unfortunately, it's time in the theaters won't be as enjoyable because of all the back and forth in the plot.
crazy to watch this now knowing how dangerous it is to be that close to a nuclear blast. Also frighttening to think of how long ago this was, and how much more powerful our technology has become.
I’m sure one could make one that could destroy the planet, but for war purposes, large thermonuclear weapons are expensive, cumbersome, high collateral, “insert here negative”, compared to the use of several, small yield, and much more accurate weapons.
Nolan did an amazing job capturing the excitement,anxiety and dread leading to the bomb exploding. I have watched hundreds of horror movies and I have not felt dread and anxiety like the secene leading up too the bomb my heart was racin and plams sweating I can’t even imagine being there for it!

The bomb pushed Japan into surrender and literally gave the momentum for Indonesia to fight back and declare its independency.

We worked night shift at Surry with a guy who got sucked into containment under power when the escape hatch blew and the negative pressure sucked his shoes off, then sucked him into the reactor building through a 24" escape hatch. What stopped him from getting sucked into the cavity, was him grabbing the cavity guardrail. 37 years is a long time to do this stuff on the road.

"Miles away, a young girl blind from birth saw the flash". This gave me chills on how powerful the bomb was at that time. Now imagine how strong the bomb is right now. About more than 1000 times right
The way Christopher Nolan handled this scene cemented my respect for him. I think it was perfectly done. What an experience in IMAX. He is a one of a kind director.
@samholland5375 Absolutely. I sat up a bit to take in what was happening. Right when I was thinking, "There has to be a shockwave," it came with a mighty WHOOMPH. Pushed me back in my seat. Great stuff.
Did we watch the same movie? Did we watch the same RUclips video? Nolan butchered the nuke’s explosion and subsequent visuals. It was a small gasoline fire at best. I’ll ask again, did we just watch the same Trinity test footage? Do you see the sheer scale of that thing? Where was that exactly in Nolan’s take? What’s wrong with these people in the comments section, the nuke was supposed to be massive, but Nolan refrained from making it true to from due to some snobby take against CGI, yet everyone seems to be riding his dick like he’s flawless. He made Batman 15 years ago, and this was the worst of his work.
In the early days of nuclear weapons testing, very little or no notice was given to people living or working nearby. It has long been speculated that the legendary actor, John Wayne, contracted cancer and died as a result of the fallout from a bomb test in Nevada, 100 miles downwind from where he was making a film about Genghis Khan, The Conqueror, in 1954. His sons Patrick and Michael battled and survived their own cancer scares. By 1980, 91 of the 220-strong cast and crew had contracted or died of various forms of cancer, including actors Susan Hayward, Agnes Moorehead, and the director Dick Powell. That's way too many cancer deaths in a fairly small group to not be related in some way. However, there are others who say that many of the rest of "The Conqueror’s" cast and crew were also heavy smokers. So there's that.
Regarding John Wayne I will share a story about genetics. A friend's father died of cancer at 72YO. My friend, who was a party guy (cigarettes from 14YO, alcohol and a host of recreational drugs) died of cancer at 62YO. His sister who never smoked a single cigarette, drank 1 drop of alcohol and never did a recreational drug died of cancer at 59YO. A lot of who we are and what we suffer from is genetic.
Yeah, there’s actually no reason to believe that. The rate of cancer among that crew was determined to be ~41%. That was frightening at first, considering it’s significantly higher than the ~31% cancer rate for the average person at the time, but it turns out that if you factor in the heavy smoking and their age, the expected rate is about 40%. Completely normal rate of cancer. The area certainly was contaminated with radioactive waste, but radiation-induced cancer is usually linked to prolonged exposure to low levels of radiation. They were exposed for a fairly short amount of time.
I saw a documentary about this somewhere om RUclips. Its crazy how all the Nuclear Fallout reached St. George, UT (where the film was recorded) & actually infected all those cast members without them knowing about it.
I read a book on the Nevada testing and everyone who was born from 1950 to about 1980 have some amount of radioactivity from the fallout. No matter where you lived, you absorbed some amount of fallout either from direct contact or from food that was contaminated by the fallout. Those who lived within a few hundred miles of the testing site were impacted the most, with more possibly dying from cancer than Hiroshima. We detonated over 100 bombs from the early 1950s until 1963. Even if you lived on the east coast at the time, you probably got some exposure to fallout. I always wondered if our health issues today are tied to being children of the testing.
@@manusaini13 easily, people move, and have children with people living in other places, and a lot of food and dairy came from the areas with crops and grass covered in Radioactive Fallout and it gets shipped across the US which people would eat and pass it to there children. The world has been fucking up humans, but the USA did a lot of damage to Americans from late 40s to the 80s and it could defiantly have some long terms effects that we might not know about. But hey, at least they let the photograph company Kodak know about these tests :))))
I watched "Oppenheimer" at the weekend. I was waiting for that scene and was anxious af leading up to it! The sound design was terryfying af! Imagine what it must have been in real life in the 1940s! Christopher Nolan and his love for practical effects never disappoints! Well done to the cast and everyone who worked on the film behind the scenes! "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. (Bhagavad-Gita)". Scary!
@@_tarnished_ That was probably the coolest part, the protracted silence, the incredible visuals, the way the scenes jump and move between characters and their different reactions, it drew you in so well, created this quiet, contemplative moment, that when the boom came it was truly like an explosion.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but there was so much hype for the practical nuclear blast in Oppenheimer, that I was actually a little disappointed by what we got, the suspense beforehand was out of this world, I just felt like there was too much hype for what we actually got visually, I did watch the standard version and not the IMAX version so maybe that had a little bit to do with it? I can’t imagine it making that big of a difference.
It is up to the individual to get excited about the images of this atomic bomb. Imagine 400 people aged 6-12 "present" at a nearby school that was blown to ashes in one second by this explosion. A massacre against children was carried out immediately after the experiment. I don't think such genocide should be viewed with such glee.
I cant explain how terrifying the bomb explosion footage is, showing how far it is and still how large the explosion reaches. Christopher Nolan done a incredible job recreating this scene in Oppenheimer
Just watched oppenheimer yesterday, this footage really resembles a lot in the film. It was a masterpiece though. the movie end with audience standing and clapping in my imax cinema.
I went to Trinity just to check off a bucket list item. Oh, when Truman mentioned the device to Stalin, he was surprised at the latter’s nonchalant reaction. That’s because Stalin already knew what was happening at Los Alamos
Stalin felt Truman was out of his depth, and really played him. Stalin had a lifetime of experience manipulating people and I think Truman was more of a straight shooter.

3:32 my father was in the TR-5 Spectographic and Photographic Group at Trinity. He was one of three GIs along with civilian team lead, Julian Mack, responsible for documenting everything at the site, base camp, and the McDonald ranch house. He took tons of stills, movie footage, and high-speed photography created just for the test. A couple days later, he and Mack were in this airplane to capture movies and stills of the crater and blast zone. I grew up with the photo of the blast zone on our basement wall.
@fightiny8624 Yes, there was. I don't remember how long they stayed away from the crater before going in and looking at the results. It was eventually bulldozed to minimize the amount. The site is open twice a year with higher than normal levels, but safe enough for visitors.
@@ajarivas72 Yes. You can search for footage for both the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings. Each mission had multiple planes with one designated for photography. My father was a photographer for the 3rd drop, but Japan surrendered before it was needed.
I'm trying to imagine being one of those closest to this test and witnessing it. Stunned probably doesn't even come close. I don't think words even exist to capture how they must have felt.
the music with the narration, as though its a documentary for how hot dogs are made, and not the single most devastating weapon of mass destruction ever conceived
I am intrigued by stock footage of nuclear explosions in which the sight and sound of the explosions are simultaneous. Given the distance at which they are filmed, that is impossible. This film seemed accurate. I often wonder why documentary films alter that.
Probably because many people would call in to the station showing it about the sound not being synced up with the video so to avoid the possibly thousands of calls or emails they just sync it themselves. Not anything official, just why i think they do it
the closest observation of the bomb I read it was about 7km from the explosion, so the sound arrived like 20 seconds later than bright explosion. In the film it seems accurate
@@jorgeestefania3184 Yes I wrote that this one seemed accurate. My question was, why in so many other films do they sync the video and the sound to be simultaneous? It seems dishonest in documentary films.
Nolan did a great build up to the nuke drop in Oppenheimer but god damn the ACTUAL nuke explosion in the movie was really underwhelming. Very disappointing. I went to IMAX to have my mind blown away from that scene and everything leading up to that scene was done SO well I got even more excited and then the bomb dropped and I was like....wtf that's it?? No sense of awe. No sense of the huge scale. No sense of the destructive power on the nuke. Was it bright?? cool yeah it was. But UGHHH it looked more like a giant gasoline explosion than it did a nuke. I mean damn look at @2:36 in this video. Now THAT's crazy!! THAT's scary! THAT's a fukkin NUKE! Nolan should have used VFX more for that sequence. That was supposed to be the big money shot. Felt more like pocket change. Great acting by everyone in the movie! Great storytelling by Nolan, as per usual, but damn man that nuke drop was a big disappointment. Fuuuuck, Nolann!! Whyyyyy!!??
I went to Trinity with my daughter about 10 years ago. We got to go inside the ranch house and stand on ground 0. I picked up some trinitite and still have it in a little bottle ❤
@@DeShark88 I picked it up from some locals who were selling it. The had a really big sign on the road. I don't think that they were too worried about it ♥
Eh, “downwinders” don’t seem to be real cases of radiation-induced cancer. Very specific cancers, such as leukemia, are associated with the type of radiation you get exposed to from nuclear fallout. Downwinders typically have the same rate of leukemia as the average person, so there doesn’t seem to be a real connection. They’re not getting radiation sickness either.
At 1:39 the guy wearing sunglasses is Lois Slotin who died an excruciating death after a deliberate accident in bikini Atol testing facility. And was one of the main engineers of the bomb.
I think the guy at the back staring directly towards the camera is Harry Daghlian who died a year earlier than Slotin after an accident involving the same core. You would have thought Slotin would have been more careful after witnessing that. Daghlian is also the guy on the right carrying the core in the first few seconds of the video.
This scene in Oppenheimer was lackluster. While the decision to keep the sound of the real explosion was great, it's clearly a gasoline explosion. You can only see the mushroom cloud if you actually eat a mushroom, which is a shame. It also was really small compared to the real footage.
May be I am jaded having watched too many atomic explosion videos but I don't think Nolan exactly displayed how powerful the shockwaves were. and the scene directly cut to actors congratulating. The mushroom cloud after the explosion didn't get any screen time it deserved after the epic wait time.
What those scientists unleashed that day held the promise of clean energy and fuel for interstellar travel as well as the portents of our own destruction.
In the movie, there was a short time after the explosion, when I wanted one of the scientists to look back at the fading mushroom cloud, , but Nolan decided not to show that perspective. I wish he had, because the initial fireball and shockwave were impressive.
The ones shown in Oppenheimer 2023 movie wasn't as menacing as the actual footage, instead it looks more like fuel air bomb. But he nailed the sound design, the flashes and fireball comes first, then some moments later followed by the sounds and shockwaves.
The Atomic Energy Commission oversaw the ANFO shots conducted near Trinity Site in the 70's. There were a series of them and our company provided the documentary photo services for the government. South southeast of Trinity Site was Holloman A.F.B. where my radio maintenance shop was. We'd listen to the Range countdown then count the seconds it took for us to hear it from T-0. We also saw it and felt it. The shots were equivalency tests and there were instrumented buildings vehicles and other test items at distances away from ground zero.hh
They specifically avoided major population centers, cultural sites, and historical sites. Both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were home to major military production factories.
The flash was later calculated to be brighter than a thousand suns 2010 Linkin Park released a concept album called a thousand suns dealing with human fears such as nuclear warfare. Also featuring Robert Oppenheimer's " now I am become death " speech
Yes! Its my favourite Linkin Park album and that's where I remember originally hearing Oppenheimers quote! Ive been listening to A Thousand Suns on repeat for a while now
The Oppenheimer movie was outstanding except for the recreation of the Trinity test explosion which looked nothing like the actual footage shown here, no cgi was used and they tried recreating it with black powder and gasoline, no mushroom cloud and too small scale.
@@garryiglesias4074 well obviously, its called Oppenheimer for a reason. It's about Oppenheimer not just Los Alamos or the Trinity Test. If you want that then go watch Little Boy and Fat Man.
Nice outro.. consider the knock on effects of that "bully" like behaviour.. the inability to reign in our own ego is the collective slowing of our shared evolution. The right choice is always to try and make the world a better place for everyone, so enemies become more a thing of the past. This is what we try to do.. and we are sometimes taking a step backwards before a few steps forward. We started as single cells, multi cells, and simple organisms. Eons later.. we are able to communicate globally with rich data. Hell on Earth has been a potential outcome for 3/4 of a century.. So to quote a great leader... I remember that which matters most... *WE ARE STILL HERE*
If thats the actual footage of the explosion, then Oppenheimer really didn’t portray it well. It looked like an average Michael bay explosion in slow motion

@@thomas5714 1986, I remember guys talking about how that had happened. It was a famous story, one we always told to new guys. We worked night shift at Surry with a guy who got sucked into containment under power when the escape hatch blew and the negative pressure sucked his shoes off, then sucked him into the reactor building through a 24" escape hatch. What stopped him from getting sucked into the cavity, was him grabbing the cavity guardrail. 37 years is a long time to do this stuff on the road.
3 days? Thirty wouldn't be enough.
@@nsbchannel1 37 years! Oofta. I walked out 10-03-2013 after 32 - I had enough. Never did Surry or North Anna - ya think you've met everyone and heard the stories about em - but. Anyway, it's possible we know each other - that's my mug in 2010. Me & the guy who handed me my first check in the biz @ St. Lucie went to Trinity 04-01 - with meters. Got more mag readings on the tower rebar than CPM - it's open the 3rd Saturday in Oct. You should go.
"Miles away, a young girl blind from birth saw the flash".
This gave me chills on how powerful the bomb was at that time.
Now imagine how strong the bomb is right now. About more than 1000 times right
I think the flash she saw is running back in time to reverse the damage
Like why wouldn’t she be able to see the flash
Image what the humans in Hiroshima and Nagasaki saw!!
Now even deadmen in the grave must stood up from that blast!
In the middle of hippocentre, they probably saw nothing!
The way Christopher Nolan handled this scene cemented my respect for him. I think it was perfectly done. What an experience in IMAX. He is a one of a kind director.
That shockwave blast in IMAX was insane!
@samholland5375 Absolutely. I sat up a bit to take in what was happening. Right when I was thinking, "There has to be a shockwave," it came with a mighty WHOOMPH. Pushed me back in my seat. Great stuff.
Did we watch the same movie? Did we watch the same RUclips video? Nolan butchered the nuke’s explosion and subsequent visuals. It was a small gasoline fire at best.
I’ll ask again, did we just watch the same Trinity test footage? Do you see the sheer scale of that thing? Where was that exactly in Nolan’s take?
What’s wrong with these people in the comments section, the nuke was supposed to be massive, but Nolan refrained from making it true to from due to some snobby take against CGI, yet everyone seems to be riding his dick like he’s flawless.
He made Batman 15 years ago, and this was the worst of his work.
@@Accelerate55 Yes and yes. I'm sorry you have that opinion. You won't change mine. Moving on.
@@34LOLWTF why reply
After seeing Oppenheimer Nolan Truly Knocked this scene of the trinity test out of the park bravo Nolan
In the early days of nuclear weapons testing, very little or no notice was given to people living or working nearby. It has long been speculated that the legendary actor, John Wayne, contracted cancer and died as a result of the fallout from a bomb test in Nevada, 100 miles downwind from where he was making a film about Genghis Khan, The Conqueror, in 1954.
His sons Patrick and Michael battled and survived their own cancer scares.
By 1980, 91 of the 220-strong cast and crew had contracted or died of various forms of cancer, including actors Susan Hayward, Agnes Moorehead, and the director Dick Powell.
That's way too many cancer deaths in a fairly small group to not be related in some way.
However, there are others who say that many of the rest of "The Conqueror’s" cast and crew were also heavy smokers. So there's that.
Regarding John Wayne I will share a story about genetics. A friend's father died of cancer at 72YO. My friend, who was a party guy (cigarettes from 14YO, alcohol and a host of recreational drugs) died of cancer at 62YO. His sister who never smoked a single cigarette, drank 1 drop of alcohol and never did a recreational drug died of cancer at 59YO. A lot of who we are and what we suffer from is genetic.
Yea his smoking habit had nothing to do with it.
Yeah, there’s actually no reason to believe that. The rate of cancer among that crew was determined to be ~41%. That was frightening at first, considering it’s significantly higher than the ~31% cancer rate for the average person at the time, but it turns out that if you factor in the heavy smoking and their age, the expected rate is about 40%. Completely normal rate of cancer. The area certainly was contaminated with radioactive waste, but radiation-induced cancer is usually linked to prolonged exposure to low levels of radiation. They were exposed for a fairly short amount of time.
I saw a documentary about this somewhere om RUclips. Its crazy how all the Nuclear Fallout reached St. George, UT (where the film was recorded) & actually infected all those cast members without them knowing about it.
Pretty much the single biggest risk factor for cancer is old age.
I read a book on the Nevada testing and everyone who was born from 1950 to about 1980 have some amount of radioactivity from the fallout. No matter where you lived, you absorbed some amount of fallout either from direct contact or from food that was contaminated by the fallout. Those who lived within a few hundred miles of the testing site were impacted the most, with more possibly dying from cancer than Hiroshima. We detonated over 100 bombs from the early 1950s until 1963. Even if you lived on the east coast at the time, you probably got some exposure to fallout. I always wondered if our health issues today are tied to being children of the testing.
How would people living on the East Coast be affected?
@@manusaini13 easily, people move, and have children with people living in other places, and a lot of food and dairy came from the areas with crops and grass covered in
Radioactive Fallout and it gets shipped across the US which people would eat and pass it to there children. The world has been fucking up humans, but the USA did a lot of damage to Americans from late 40s to the 80s and it could defiantly have some long terms effects that we might not know about. But hey, at least they let the photograph company Kodak know about these tests :))))
Our health issues today? Which ones
no shit
@@lars7747Is that even a serious question?
I watched "Oppenheimer" at the weekend. I was waiting for that scene and was anxious af leading up to it! The sound design was terryfying af! Imagine what it must have been in real life in the 1940s! Christopher Nolan and his love for practical effects never disappoints! Well done to the cast and everyone who worked on the film behind the scenes! "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. (Bhagavad-Gita)". Scary!
I almost jumped out my seat when the explosion sound hit you. It was quiet for so long it made you forget it was coming
@@_tarnished_ That was probably the coolest part, the protracted silence, the incredible visuals, the way the scenes jump and move between characters and their different reactions, it drew you in so well, created this quiet, contemplative moment, that when the boom came it was truly like an explosion.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but there was so much hype for the practical nuclear blast in Oppenheimer, that I was actually a little disappointed by what we got, the suspense beforehand was out of this world, I just felt like there was too much hype for what we actually got visually, I did watch the standard version and not the IMAX version so maybe that had a little bit to do with it? I can’t imagine it making that big of a difference.
And I absolutely loved the movie, I just found it funny that the visuals of the blast itself to me were the weakest part of the movie
It is up to the individual to get excited about the images of this atomic bomb.
Imagine 400 people aged 6-12 "present" at a nearby school that was blown to ashes in one second by this explosion.
A massacre against children was carried out immediately after the experiment. I don't think such genocide should be viewed with such glee.
thanks to nolan, he just made us to feel this moment.
This was portrayed so well in Oppenheimer, all without CGI too!
"Now I am become Death. The Destroyer Of Worlds."
I cant explain how terrifying the bomb explosion footage is, showing how far it is and still how large the explosion reaches. Christopher Nolan done a incredible job recreating this scene in Oppenheimer
Except for the actual explosion lol
Inb4 “bUt hE diDnT uSe cGi!!”
Use it next time.
Just watched oppenheimer yesterday, this footage really resembles a lot in the film. It was a masterpiece though. the movie end with audience standing and clapping in my imax cinema.
I went to Trinity just to check off a bucket list item. Oh, when Truman mentioned the device to Stalin, he was surprised at the latter’s nonchalant reaction. That’s because Stalin already knew what was happening at Los Alamos
I went there this, believe it or not, April 1st. My Q is: How is it the McDonald farm house didn't get so much as singed? Weird. You an ex nuke too?
Stalin felt Truman was out of his depth, and really played him. Stalin had a lifetime of experience manipulating people and I think Truman was more of a straight shooter.
@@RommelsAsparagus Stalin probably felt that way about everybody he couldn't have Beria murder at the snap of his fingers.
well truman also didn't really explain it well. he just said that we have a new powerful weapon and that was it
That device is now the mere detonation device for our current weapons 1000s of times more powerful.
Truly horrifying.
Humanity is doomed its inevitable...
@@monojitchatterjee3185 as a USAF 2W2, it really isn't. For a host of reasons.
Plus, we have other methods (non-nuclear) now that are as deadly on a global level that are more quickly deployed.

3:32 my father was in the TR-5 Spectographic and Photographic Group at Trinity. He was one of three GIs along with civilian team lead, Julian Mack, responsible for documenting everything at the site, base camp, and the McDonald ranch house. He took tons of stills, movie footage, and high-speed photography created just for the test. A couple days later, he and Mack were in this airplane to capture movies and stills of the crater and blast zone. I grew up with the photo of the blast zone on our basement wall.
@fightiny8624 Yes, there was. I don't remember how long they stayed away from the crater before going in and looking at the results. It was eventually bulldozed to minimize the amount. The site is open twice a year with higher than normal levels, but safe enough for visitors.
@@feeberizer
Are there photographs and videos of the explosions on Hiroshima or Nagasaki?
Was a second plane ✈️ sent to document the events?
@@ajarivas72 Yes. You can search for footage for both the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings. Each mission had multiple planes with one designated for photography. My father was a photographer for the 3rd drop, but Japan surrendered before it was needed.
@@feeberizer thanks a lot for the replay. Very interesting telling us about your father.
That’s crazy they could see the flash over 200 miles away in Los Alamos

It should be who is here before they were making a movie about Oppenheimer
Saw it last night 👍

@@caroteminofficial3633 I watched it on Peacock.. unless that's something different.
I love how this audio sounds. Always reminds me of when I was in school
3:37 The music sounds just like when you finish a game and is shown credits lol
Haha yeah it’s really random but nifty
How accurate OPPENHEIMER was....!
Hatsoff to Christopher Nolan... The exact scene is seen in the movie
Stalin smoking a cigarette "Yeah Yeah I got a guy on the inside"
I thought this was stock footage but realized at 3:35 it’s an early 90s computer game.
What game?
Just saw Oppenheimer. Truly incredible.
70mm IMAX was worth it. Sound was 👏👏
I'm trying to imagine being one of those closest to this test and witnessing it. Stunned probably doesn't even come close. I don't think words even exist to capture how they must have felt.
There are videos on RUclips
About the hydrogen bombs tested at the Bikini Atoll islands
And the soldiers who were the
"Human Tests"
Remember seeing the scene in theaters everybody was so quiet then once it happened we were shocked
"miles away, a young girl, blind from birth, saw the flash". Christopher Nolan did an unbelievable job potraying this scene in Oppenheimer.
This movie was awesome, especially the bomb scene.
I was born and raised in Alamogordo and my people go back 150 years there so seeing this movie it was just amazing
'The flash was later calculated to be brighter than thousand suns'😱
Ya because we are very far away from sun.
Did anyone see a face at 2:59? So eerie!
thats a fireball
I saw
Looks like a combination of Einstein and Newton
3:01 to be exact
It's that Hindu God oppenheimer talked about. The bringer of death.
The explosion in Nolans Oppenheimer looked underwhelming compared to this.
I remember seeing a picture of the pile of 20,000 Ton Pile of TNT they detonated to have a standard to measure against these first bombs. It was huge.
I wonder if they detonated 500,000 tons of TNT to measure the Tsar Bomba.
the music with the narration, as though its a documentary for how hot dogs are made, and not the single most devastating weapon of mass destruction ever conceived
I am intrigued by stock footage of nuclear explosions in which the sight and sound of the explosions are simultaneous. Given the distance at which they are filmed, that is impossible. This film seemed accurate. I often wonder why documentary films alter that.
Probably because many people would call in to the station showing it about the sound not being synced up with the video so to avoid the possibly thousands of calls or emails they just sync it themselves. Not anything official, just why i think they do it
@@tardisman4210 You're probably right. It is unfortunate that we may be teaching bad science instead of it being a teaching moment.
the closest observation of the bomb I read it was about 7km from the explosion, so the sound arrived like 20 seconds later than bright explosion. In the film it seems accurate
From what I have read, there was no sound recording of the Trinity test.
@@jorgeestefania3184 Yes I wrote that this one seemed accurate. My question was, why in so many other films do they sync the video and the sound to be simultaneous? It seems dishonest in documentary films.
Nolan did a great build up to the nuke drop in Oppenheimer but god damn the ACTUAL nuke explosion in the movie was really underwhelming. Very disappointing. I went to IMAX to have my mind blown away from that scene and everything leading up to that scene was done SO well I got even more excited and then the bomb dropped and I was like....wtf that's it?? No sense of awe. No sense of the huge scale. No sense of the destructive power on the nuke. Was it bright?? cool yeah it was. But UGHHH it looked more like a giant gasoline explosion than it did a nuke. I mean damn look at @2:36 in this video. Now THAT's crazy!! THAT's scary! THAT's a fukkin NUKE! Nolan should have used VFX more for that sequence. That was supposed to be the big money shot. Felt more like pocket change. Great acting by everyone in the movie! Great storytelling by Nolan, as per usual, but damn man that nuke drop was a big disappointment. Fuuuuck, Nolann!! Whyyyyy!!??
Exactly how I felt.
Who's here after watching Oppenheimer?
Everyone
I went to Trinity with my daughter about 10 years ago. We got to go inside the ranch house and stand on ground 0. I picked up some trinitite and still have it in a little bottle ❤
Isn't that illegal to remove anything from the site? I'd have done the same though
Theft of trinitite can be punished by fines and even jail time. I'd keep that on the down low if I was you.
@@DeShark88 I picked it up from some locals who were selling it. The had a really big sign on the road. I don't think that they were too worried about it ♥
@@andred3299 Yes, 2 days a year. Make sure and put one in your calendar :)
The cover story was that an ammo dump had exploded. But the first Downwinders were in New Mexico.
Eh, “downwinders” don’t seem to be real cases of radiation-induced cancer. Very specific cancers, such as leukemia, are associated with the type of radiation you get exposed to from nuclear fallout. Downwinders typically have the same rate of leukemia as the average person, so there doesn’t seem to be a real connection. They’re not getting radiation sickness either.
@@Notlordstark if u dont think that the nukes in the 50s-70s caused cancer to thousands of people you're wrong
At 1:39 the guy wearing sunglasses is Lois Slotin who died an excruciating death after a deliberate accident in bikini Atol testing facility. And was one of the main engineers of the bomb.
Interesting story. Louis Slotin. Thx.
@@sirwinston2368 anytime 👍
I think the guy at the back staring directly towards the camera is Harry Daghlian who died a year earlier than Slotin after an accident involving the same core. You would have thought Slotin would have been more careful after witnessing that. Daghlian is also the guy on the right carrying the core in the first few seconds of the video.
A deliberate accident, you mean he was murdered.
This scene in Oppenheimer was lackluster. While the decision to keep the sound of the real explosion was great, it's clearly a gasoline explosion. You can only see the mushroom cloud if you actually eat a mushroom, which is a shame. It also was really small compared to the real footage.
Brilliant. Thanks for posting.
May be I am jaded having watched too many atomic explosion videos but I don't think Nolan exactly displayed how powerful the shockwaves were. and the scene directly cut to actors congratulating. The mushroom cloud after the explosion didn't get any screen time it deserved after the epic wait time.
The phone didn't have a camera, but still took the picture
What those scientists unleashed that day held the promise of clean energy and fuel for interstellar travel as well as the portents of our own destruction.
In the movie, there was a short time after the explosion, when I wanted one of the scientists to look back at the fading mushroom cloud, , but Nolan decided not to show that perspective. I wish he had, because the initial fireball and shockwave were impressive.
They were pretty lucky that lightning didn't strike the tower during the strom.
fuckk
Man.. I love what Nolan did !!!
1:58 - Oppenheimer
Yesterday i watched Oppenheimer, it was a great experience, the movie is amazing and you can feel the pressure people were living at this time
That crazy (and entirely inappropriate) music about 20 seconds before the end! 😂😂
It's like a 16bit game's mission accomplished music lol
Amazing footage, we can see Robert there.
The ones shown in Oppenheimer 2023 movie wasn't as menacing as the actual footage, instead it looks more like fuel air bomb. But he nailed the sound design, the flashes and fireball comes first, then some moments later followed by the sounds and shockwaves.
It exceeded more than expectations!😊
Did we all watch the same movie? The explosion in oppenheimer was a complete let down!
I just came here after watching Oppenheimer on my 4k HDR TV. What a movie and that was one hell of a scene depicting this moment in time.
The Atomic Energy Commission oversaw the ANFO shots conducted near Trinity Site in the 70's. There were a series of them and our company provided the documentary photo services for the government. South southeast of Trinity Site was Holloman A.F.B. where my radio maintenance shop was. We'd listen to the Range countdown then count the seconds it took for us to hear it from T-0. We also saw it and felt it. The shots were equivalency tests and there were instrumented buildings vehicles and other test items at distances away from ground zero.hh
Been to Trinity 6-7 times it’s an eerie empty field in the desert, fenced in. Open twice a year for about 6-7 hours.
I find it amusing that they chose not to drop it on Kyoto solely on the reason Henry Stimson visited there for his honeymoon.
They specifically avoided major population centers, cultural sites, and historical sites.
Both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were home to major military production factories.
That music at 3:36 !
So far from what you would expect when talking about the birth of the deadliest weapon ever.
Wow, this happened, just like in the movie Oppenheimer. 😮
Almost like they have something in common, crazy ! What a coincidence !
"They've used me. Only now do I realise what project Japslayer Megabomb was truly about." - Oppenheimer
The flash was later calculated to be brighter than a thousand suns
2010 Linkin Park released a concept album called a thousand suns dealing with human fears such as nuclear warfare. Also featuring Robert Oppenheimer's " now I am become death " speech
thnx
Yes! Its my favourite Linkin Park album and that's where I remember originally hearing Oppenheimers quote! Ive been listening to A Thousand Suns on repeat for a while now
It more depends on how close you are if it’s brighter than a thousands suns or not
The Oppenheimer movie was outstanding except for the recreation of the Trinity test explosion which looked nothing like the actual footage shown here, no cgi was used and they tried recreating it with black powder and gasoline, no mushroom cloud and too small scale.
Yeah. I honestly think that if they TRULY did not want any cgi they could have at least used the real test footage.
Can you imagine driving 200 miles with 6 kg of plutonium in your car???
not really that scary its not like its gonna randomly go off and theyre in special containers to trap radiation

Watching Oppenheimer I keep hearing Malcolm in my head. “They were so focused on whether or not they could they didn’t stop to think if they should..”

Nice outro.. consider the knock on effects of that "bully" like behaviour.. the inability to reign in our own ego is the collective slowing of our shared evolution. The right choice is always to try and make the world a better place for everyone, so enemies become more a thing of the past. This is what we try to do.. and we are sometimes taking a step backwards before a few steps forward.
We started as single cells, multi cells, and simple organisms. Eons later.. we are able to communicate globally with rich data.
Hell on Earth has been a potential outcome for 3/4 of a century.. So to quote a great leader...
I remember that which matters most... *WE ARE STILL HERE*

0:02 "Two geeks carrying their newly bought Gamecube with care, the day it was released".
If thats the actual footage of the explosion, then Oppenheimer really didn’t portray it well. It looked like an average Michael bay explosion in slow motion
The background music though...... straight out of a 90's video game
