  • Excellent. And The United States just can't figure out why there is an increase in cancers. We are so stupid.

  • I gotta wonder if 2000 nukes would have went off if there was ever a real nuclear war?
    Hopefully we'd smarten up after a couple dozen.
    Hopefully.

    • Hopefully all that radiation was blown out into the pacific ocean.
      Europe and Asia seems fucked, though, the radiation had nowhere to go but over populated areas.

    • I think they were thinking someone's getting extremely rich off lighting these firecrackers off.
      How much do you figure a nuclear test costs in cash ... and who gets the money?
      We really are all victims of a great crime here.

    • Yep. Trillions zillions of dollars.
      Every good cop follows the money.

  • Interesting that neither France nor the U.K. tested on home soil.

  • Y'know whats funny is that except for India and Pakistan, every country, in some instance, used other nations territory to carry out the tests - I found that amusingly pathetic.
    Its bad enough that your spewing radiation everywhere - but then you spew it upon people's that have nothing to do with you; I wonder how all these explosions in the pacific affected Global thermohaline circulation- otherwise known as the global water current!

  • Kinda laughing at the Russian bomb map though. Their distribution makes it look like they already got hit nice and thoroughly. And they did it to themselves, LOL.

  • Seems strange that there had to be so much testing. Now Im no Albert Einstein, but after the ones went off in Japan I would pretty much now what they could do. Almost seems like the biggest dick contest really.
    America You Win.! hahahah

    • Well that's always been the fear since this devil's inception, horizontal proliferation. Two nations with hundreds of bombs each is kinda controllable ... kinda.
      A hundred nations with a few nukes each?
      Fucking impossible to control.

    Definitely a fascinating video, I'm guessing they started testing them all inside the US because of the Castle Bravo test.
