How to launch a nuclear missile.
Google: you should not launch a nuclear missile

"I thought you'll never ask."
Not even true.
If this is declassified technology, imagine what they are hiding now
in this chase, showing insides into what you already came up with and are now whiling to show (as it may be outdated), will even provoke more fear and wonder of what you already did as of now and could in the future come up with.
Making the deterrent even stronger than before whilst also ensuring that you don't just take it lightly and are properly ensuring that you are not wanting to have it happen by accident (and also in general)
Nuklear ICBMs serve their purpose best when they don't get launched. And that's the best way to use them.
Wow even getting 3 upvotes is more than i ever expected to reach this comment, in my eyes, you ain't no less than heroes
this is nothing special tbh
If you want to see some crazy scary missiles lookup hypersonic glide missiles or Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRV) or Fractional Orbital Bombardment System (FOBS).
@@BILL_BO_jangles America possibly does have metal rods in space that can be dropped as and when
I visited the Titan Missile Museum, which is where this video was filmed, myself some time after watching it. I didn't get to turn the key, but still, the whole tour was something else. You learn not only how this missile could have been launched and what it was used for, but also what the life of someone doing a shift at the launch facility was like.
Also, this video does not do the missile's size justice; I can guarantee that it is much bigger than you'd expect in person. It's humbling, for lack of a better word.
Crewmember duty was great!!!!
just got my thermonuclear missile and I can say that this video is highly helpful, I couldn't figure it out before but the problem was that I was trying to do it by myself and I need 2 people. thanks for the instructional video. subbed
Underrated 😅🤣

oh dude i can be your co-commander just say station adress
Just got some top notch korean missiles,any advice?
@@angelszmyes. When activating the missiles make sure that you ignite before opening the doors, with those missiles that causes the issue of the missile falling back in and killing everyone within a mile radius of the silo

You wear a hardhats because the place is made of concrete and steel and a million corners and sharp edges...even the floors are steel plates. You move in, under and around moving doors, hatches, and climb ladders between the levels surrounded by steel supports you literally have to duck under . One look at the hardhats on a shelf, and you see the bangs, dings and gouges that someone's head didn't have to experience.
@@broper5280 ik but its just a joke

And what’s scary is for two decades all of the minuteman silos had launch codes of eight zeros.
“So that’s it. We just ended all life of Earth?”
“As we know it.”
That gave me chills man.
"War... War never changes..."
As ‘you’ know it. Get it right dumbfuck
@@shawnpagel170 😐
It was meant to give you chills
He could have said "You get used to it." since he probably ended the world as we know it at least once a week. However, when the order comes i'd trust that guy more than some people who have nothing to loose and don't mind taking the world with them.
I'm impressed with his on camera demeanor; no drama, no "oh wow", no foolishness. This is a well done, respectful and informative presentation. Extremely rare on CZcams.
what about 2:19 ?
wouldn't you call that drama ? but you gotta say, they absolutely had to pull that badass lines
@@Em.P14 that's professional acting not just throwing craziness around right?
I don't think this is the place where ou would act with drama. The background is to dark to act childish in such a place on or off camera.
Quite right. That's why @veritasium has 11.6M subscribers! ;-)
@@Em.P14 5:47 and this one. Those lines just give so dramatical, idiotic narration like straight from some kid's cartoons
The silo guy could read the phone book to me and I’d be intrigued. Great story teller.
Who is watching this after Putin put nuclear weapons on standby?
Yeah. I wonder what the soviet procedures are and if it is any easier to launch for them.
@@wyqtor With the Russian military's ineptitude, either they'll be unable to launch their nuclear missiles (+1,000 of them aimed and ready to fire), or accidentally send them on their way, terminating all life on Earth as we know it (including the human species... we'll be the first to go). The Earth will simply revert to being one of billions of lifeless rocks floating through the galaxy, just as it had begun.
Not only on standby, but actively hinting that their use by him is entirely plausible, justifiable and definitely "on the table." Christiana Amanpour interviewed Putin's deputy yesterday, who stated that it would be no problem for Russia to employ nuclear weapons if an "existential threat" existed. Are the Russians simply saber-rattling? In fact, for Putin to be dethroned means certain death or imprisonment, so in his calculation there may be nothing more to lose by launching a nuclear armageddon, since he already sees the "writing on the wall," so to speak. All cult leader Jim Jones could do at the end of his rope was to tell his flock to 'drink the kool-aid.' The one's who refused were shot. In Putin's case, he may not care if +7-billion humans are incinerated in a nuclear Holocaust, since he faces an otherwise bleak future otherwise. Putin's greatest self-acknowledged fear as a dictator was seeing how his peers Saddam Hussain and Moamar Khadafi met their fate, and doesn't want his life to end as theirs horribly did. As a result, he will attempt to hold onto power until the bitter end, yet hopefully not at the cost of the rest of humanity. So buckle up!
@@michaelmeichtry316 So basically our only hope is to assasinate him?
"So that's it? We just basically just ended life on Earth??"
This line is soo good, to remind everyone that Nuclear War is no joke..
Well, You can't end all life on earth. There will always be someone or something which will live. Come on It's so hard to kill those pesky mosquitoes.
That line gave me the chills
By the way, according to Kurzgesagt there are enough nukes in the world to bomb every city with a population of more than 100,000
THREE TIMES OVER
@@Happy-xi9hl But nothing more complicated than small bacteria and viruses deep in the ocean or underground. Cockroaches might live but they're only tolerant to the fallout, not the massive blast itself.

This gentleman right there explained in such a clear way why nuclear weapons are still owned by governments and why nuclear programs and persued by dictatorships.
That was surreal, I knew the basic concept of launching sequences but actually seeing it done gave me chills, especially the comment about ending life as we know it
You created such an atmosphere at the moment before launch, an atmosphere so scary that it gave me goose bump...
+MaNu5755 because it is exactly what it is like on the real launch. you can't underestimate the pressure of killing someone.
+Fathin Luqman Tantowi "someone" is and understatement, m8.
+Windy blower more like everyone
+MaNu5755 I feel that.
+Joakim Brodén The music helps a lot.
The only thing scarier, than the Titan-2, is the voice of the old man from the silo.
Honestly the Titan II is far from the scariest nuclear weapon, so it'd be placed further down the list. Scarier nuclear weapons, such as the largest nuclear bomb ever tested, the "Tsar Bomba", or MIRVed ICBMs such as the R-36 "Satan" missile that carry multiple warheads and has the longest range, exist, and some are still operational today. The Titan series of ICBMs are actually rather simple nuclear weapons in terms of both payload, cruise speed, and special capabilities. Within the US nuclear arsenal, it was eclipsed by far by the Minuteman, which could travel at about 7.9 kilometres per second. So I'd put it somewhere behind more modern ICBMs as well as standalone payloads, but you're definitely right about the old man's voice.

0:56 to 2:09 This section is like the best scene of a movie ever. The way he spoke, opened the door, worded what he said, the way he said it.
Or like a Metal Gear cutscene
The keys being the main problem.
@@A-B101 Oh my you're right xD
Yea good acting too.
Yeah and the subtle background music contributes so much to the scene
Maybe not the best time to recommend this CZcams.
What you see here is a Fiebinger developed underground ICBM silo, the first very similar one was built in Nazi Germany during late 1944 by MAKO near Arnstadt where the Germans started a large Skoda V101 (V4) 3 stage solid fuel rocket sucessfully from such a silo called Polte 2. (16.03.1945) Unarmed test flight went from Arnstadt to North Polar region radio guided.
This was very helpful, thanks. Kept forgetting to hold the keys in place.

PART 5! THE STALEMATE BUTTON!
***** On MW2 its only 25
Targets were 3 pre-assigned locations in the Soviet Union. One of these would be selected during launch and all trajectory and flight calculations would be preprogrammed.
rich Nope they wouldn't, Russians almost fire nuclear Missiles because of a false alarm but thanks to a russian officier Stanislav Petrov, they didn't
***** There was a very close call once and this guy was smart enough to save us from WW3 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanislav_Petrov
rich I'm sorry what?! "OH GOSH DARNIT! They nuked us! Get them on the phone, I'm going to have some harsh words with them." Said nobody ever, in ANY timeline.... Not even in timelines where we did break these bad boys out and start using them.
***** Nah, but after launch there would be proabaly a formal declarion of war:
*_JOINT RESOLUTION Declaring that a state of war exists between the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the Government and the people of the United States and making provisions to prosecute the same._*
_WHEREAS, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics has committed an act of war against the Government and the people of the United States of America; therefore, that the state of war between the United States and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics which has thus been thrust upon the United States is hereby formally declared; and the President is hereby authorized and directed to employ the entire nuclear arsenal of the United States and the resources of the Government to carry on war against the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics; and, to bring the conflict to a successful termination, all the resources of the country are hereby pledged by the Congress of the United States._
Veritasium so, lets say the Soviet Union isnt´t the enemy here, but the chinese. Could the pre-assigned Locations changed or would the Missile be useles against the chinese? Would like to know more about the targeting-system.
I moved to Arizona back in 2005 and I went to the Titan Missile Museum. I was really impressed opening that main entrance door to the control room.
Thank you for this tutorial!
Whoops! Forgot to take the warhead out.
Lol, the worst possible way to extinct humanity
Prime Ninja, Humans will never be extinct, Chuck Norris will save human extinction!
Wyles Malibiran Are we still doing Chuck Norris?
CuriousMoth Don't worry, it expired in 1997.
CuriousMoth that actually happened a few times. Like one time some airport noticed after more than 12 hours they had a nuke sitting on the runway. and the us actually accidentally dropped armed nukes on the USA and due to a malfunction they didn't blow.
The thought that humanity could be ended just by two people turning keys is terrifying
I think it actually required 4 people ( 2 separate crews in the same complex)
Ra ra rasputin!
two guys and the necesary things that have to happen that they get the code to arm the missile
@@paulmaggs3212 from what I know it was a 5 man crew separate from each other. The missile required at least two keys to launch
@@AllTheguillerub2001 Do you have a reference for that? I had understand that in the US, it required 2 separate crews to turn the keys (4 crewmen) to stop a single rogue crew from launching. On the subs I had understood it required Captain,XO + 2 Others (Probably the Weapons Officer ). The Soviet Union may have been different.
As you can appreciate, much of this is still cloaked in secrecy, though there are some good books out there that shed some light on procedures.
Thanks for the tutorial!
Super cool and incredibly intriguing video. Your videos always manage to put my entire life into a new paradigm; It's much appreciated!

_Instruction nuclear, started World War 3_
I wonder what kind of psychological preparation the missile crews received, in order to overcome what must have been incredible stress.
Jonathan Stewart I had a friend in the Air Force who was chosen as a candidate to become an operator. He said that they gave him a whole bunch of psych tests to determine if he'd be an appropriate pick. Apparently they look for people who have less emotional responses and are more prone to follow orders no matter what. He was chosen and given a chance to become an operator but he turned it down. He said he couldn't have done it even if ordered to.
Kosh800 Wow. That's some heavy stuff. I'm not sure I'd be able to, and I guess that doubt would have disqualified me.
Smithy0013 Sounds like it would have just made it harder, knowing that at any moment, the mundane conversation gives way to ending the world.
+Jonathan Stewart Ever watch "War Games"? The intro is enlightening.
puncheex2 Not for many years. I'll have to check it out again.
5:35 that lift-off light gave me the chills
Wow... when the missile was "launched" I felt a cold shiver on my back. Good job with the video.
So this is what it takes to make Fallout a reality...

my favorite comment in this comment section
Alex Jones cmon buddy
he just needed one more guy to end the world
He forgot to say you only 6 tries with the unlocking of the scroll wheel thing with the 17million different combinations after that the silo locks itself down and you can’t be able to launch a titan 2
Thank you so much for this tutorial. It helped me a lot in my world conquest!
These videos are getting more and more relevant
"there's no oops switch"
what's that "abort" light for?
I'm sure that one turns on if the keys aren't turned at the right time or if one of the keys is released before 5 seconds is up
If there's a mechanical failure of the missile that makes it unable to launch
hackingpro Equipment failure that prevents launch. Titan II was a fairly complex liquid fueled booster with lots of potential points of failure.
Newer launch systems are all solid fuel boosters. Far less complex and error prone. Death is essentially assured.
It is for in the process of getting to the launch light once it launches there is no way to disable it unless you shoot it down

Haunting words. I really appreciate the seriousness they showed towards the topic in the video. No jokes, no witty banter. Just the somber fact that this would be the end of everything.
Back in the '80s, a really good piece of fiction was published called War Day, that described a limited nuclear war, and the effects afterwards. Really interesting read.

This sounds like some sort of action movie. That actually makes it a lot scarier than you would think.
Zaziuma I agree. The soundtrack nearly drowned out the dialogue. I think that a more neutral music score would have emphasized the clinical nature of a missile launch, which has a terrorizing component of it's own.
Andrew Timm
I was talking about the amount of silly things you had to do to launch it actually.
all the silly things, such as code verification, two keys, etc., were designed to be sure that we only launched a missile when we really wanted to.
Zaziuma Or maybe a dark comedy with Peter Sellers. Oh wait.
Zaziuma When the silo guide said "there is no oops button", I got far more chills than any of the music could artificially deliver.
Russian missile silos just have a big red button and a bottle of vodka next to it.
Уже за это хочется врезать по голове. ...Так зачем нарываться-то?
😂
Russian missiles are automatic; they need no external input to launch. If the "Dead Hand" switch system detects anything similar to an atomic blast, a cruise missile will fly over Russia on a pre-set flight path, beaming out radio signals which trigger the missiles to fire. All without the press of a button.

5:54 My man looks like he literally started a WW3
From 9/66 thru 2/69 I was assigned to the 381st Strategic Missile Wing at McConnell AFB, Wichita, Kansas. My job was maintaining the wired communications systems on the launch sites, including those speakers you heard the EWO message over, as well as the many intercom headsets used by maintenance personnel, and the various private line telephones used to control site access. I noticed that your guide was Chuck Penson. He has published a rather comprehensive book about the Titan II from the concept to the construction, the functionality, how various systems worked, all the way through to the decommissioning and destruction of the sites. Tons of pictures and diagrams. A great resource for anyone interested in the most devastating weapon system ever deployed and a walk down memory lane for us old guys who proudly wore the “pocket rocket” (Missileman badge) back in the day.
You sir are a legend who knows and told us about another legand
Thank you Sir.
I was stationed at Davis Monthan AFB from 1982-1985 assigned to the 836th Security Police Squadron which provided security to the 390th & 391st Missile Squadron at DM. The video could have explained more but it was ok. I was also there providing security and evacuation support for the deactivation of the 18 silos. Was a great, much better than working missile security for MinuteMan in Grand Forks which was my next assignment.
BMAT from the 533rd here. Even today hearing that warble tone makes my heart skip a beat.
Thanks for the tutorial
That is frightening to see the launch sequence to the end! Thank you for sharing this Sir. I truly hope this never gets engaged.
That museum is so fun to visit. They have an open house every February and they just let you wander around the entire silo, unescorted and explore. Very fun.
