Declassified Footage - An Atomic Bomb Too Big to Actually Use
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 10. 2020
- The Tsar Bomba's explosion was unparalleled in power. With a 50 megaton capacity, this nuclear test was estimated to be 3,800 times the strength of the Hiroshima atomic bomb.
And although short video clips and photos previously proved its existence, this 40-minute propaganda film detailing the bomb's history and specifications was unseen until now...
The documentary, presenting unparalleled footage of the largest nuclear explosion ever on earth, was released to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Soviet Union's nuclear industry. It was posted on the Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation's CZcams Channel.
The images offer a new and fascinating glimpse into the powerful Cold War nuclear test of October 30, 1961. It's also a great reminder of the power the Soviets wielded during its staredown with America...

His delivery is designed to get you to listen, and you did. He stays factual all the way through and when he's done he stops talking. I really like that best of all. One of the few channels I listen through to the end.
I think it’s because they are hammering videos out so quickly. The older DarkDocs videos he does speak much more slowly.

“Declassified” basically means “we took out everything we don’t want you to see”
or is sh!t we already know about if we do a little research.
No, it means or says: it was SO TRUE that it must have been classified before. (It contains only a dozen or so short - a few second - clips.) Propaganda works nowadays in such ways.
That’s the scary part, we don’t know what they kept classified.

You know a full power test was too dangerous when even the Soviets were too scared to test it
We were not afraid )))

@@sergeigarbar1948 They were plans for a 100 megaton bomb if im not mistaken but the plane that threw the bomb would not survive so you could say that they were scared in a way
@@raimundohott9716 They would probably make a bigger plane, but I think they were scared of the fallout that would be caused.
@@comrademeerkat1733 I dont ment that the plane couldnt carry it while there might be problem with that it should be relatively easy to deal with that what i meant is that the plane wouldnt go fast enough for them to avoid getting hit once the nuke explodes thus dying
So if they had this back in the 60's I could only imagine what there is today .
Nothing like it, really. Not that they couldn't make it, but they made the boring but pragmatic decision to have thousands of smaller nukes.
You know it’s really dangerous when even the Soviets say “This is too dangerous.”
Also, having to move a huge nuclear weapon via steam locomotive is the perfect metaphor for why the Soviet Union failed.
Soviet Union never failed. When Boris Yeltsin and Vladimir Putin pulled Russia out of it, it ceased to exist.

I’m pretty sure at this point we could make a bomb that destroys a continent
The US seems to have settled on an optimal size of 0.75 MTons for most things. The Russians may have something this large in their arsenal, built into something like a torpedo. Tsar B. is a nice demonstration that the Teller-suman design is arbitrarily scalable. Later, in the 90’s, Teller published about MUCH larger explosive devices for use in planetary defense for blowing up asteroids up to and including the size of Pluto.

@@supertruckertom The russians actually have a nuclear bomb that was designed not too long ago to destroy an area the size of france. france is the same size as texas if that puts things into perspective for you
@@supertruckertom These are not what would worry me. Two things that worry me that came out of the Cold War and Soviet Union specifically, were the Deadhand system and Cobalt Bombs. Cobalt Bombs are Thermonuclear weapons with a cobalt 59 lining. When detonated and fused the cobalt-59 changes to cobalt-60 , then falls to the earth as horrifically longer lasting and substantially more intense radiation. This makes waiting in shelter for the fallout to decay to safe levels unattainable. Cobalt bombs were considered to be the ultimate area denial "Doomsday" weapons. Even worse than Cobalt Bombs is the Deadhand system. The Soviet Union claimed to have developed and implemented a system that could recognize a nuclear detonation anywhere on Soviet soil. The system would then automatically launch a full Nuclear strike using the last updated list of pre-selected targets without any further human input. It was claimed that the reason for the system was that even in the event of a surprise attack, taking out all Soviet command and control mutual destruction would be assured. There were supposedly several close calls with the system nearly registering false detonations. There are rumors and speculation that Russia may have reactivated an updated version of this system.

The equivalent of the B-29
@@Mgl1206 Not really the "equivalent" of the B-29. While it is true that the Tu-95 is a result of the Soviets reverse engineering the Boeing B-29, it's a very different beast and far superior to the B-29. For starters, the B-29 used 4 radial piston engine with one prop for each engine. The Tu-95 uses turbo-props which uses turbines, and each of the four engines has a pair of counter-rotating props. The B-29 had straight wings while the Tu-95 uses swept wings for better aerodynamics. And since the Tu-95 has remained the Soviet/Russian Federation's primary strategic bomber all this time it has been updated with much more modern technology and avionics over the years. The Tu-95 still remains the fastest prop-driven aircraft ever made.
"3800 Times the size of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima".....Try and wrap your head around that!.......
My head isn’t big enough to even wrap around the Little boy of Hiroshima.
@@flyingcow1343 Its completely mental!...No wonder they stopped the tests afterwards.....
Nuke Map does a good job at helping one understand the size of different nuclear detonations. It gives rough calculations of the prompt radiation, thermal burns, pressure of the shockwave, crater, fireball, and rough understanding of fallout.
My favorite metric to use is try to see how much far the nuke can reliably break windows. Turns out it can be quite difficult to break all the windows in a state or a European country even with a shit ton of nukes.
@@josephburchanowski4636 My fav fact about the bombs is only one person had the smarts to watch the first test of an atomic bomb with his bare eyes.....Richard P Feynman knew that a certain kind of light would make you go blind, so he got in a car/van and watched it behind glass, as he knew that the glass would stop that light from rendering him sightless......Very not sure that would have worked with this huge monster!.......
@@exsappermadman25055 "Richard P Feynman knew that a certain kind of light would make you go blind,"
Probably infrared, as large parts of the infrared spectrum are absorbed by glass and in large nukes it is the second most damaging thing after the shockwave. It mostly just heats things up, but it turns out our eyes are very vulnerable to direct heating. Often the immense infrared radiation produce by a nuke is known as the thermal pulse, depending on the nukes size and distance it can catch wood of fire, give third degree burns to any exposed skin, and of course cause flash blindness to an insane distance if you decide to look at the nuke.
Random side note about infrared light. Some of those powerful green lasers when too cold will stop emitting in green, and emit entirely in infrared. If it doesn't have a good filter on it to block the infrared light, you can have a powerful, invisible, and eye damaging beam. Many people have gotten permanent eye damage thinking their laser was broken and trying to see what was wrong with it.

Tsar bomba chan
@@ShOxCooking lol
What i find even scarier than this is the fact that the tsar bomb was only 1/3rd of its original planned size. The Russians actually discovered how to indefinitely increase the power of an explosion, and had planned to test the Tsar bomb 3 times more powerful than what was dropped. However, scientists last minute concluded that an explosion of that power would literally destroy the Earth, so they toned it down. And what's even more crazy is that the Tsar bomb is nothing compared to the explosive power of the cosmos. Explosions can be truly staggering
We destroyed the planet we used to live on in this way. The planet has a consciousness. Now we have bad karma.

@@jamesrichardson8379 he definitely smoked some meth.
There is something about how the Tsar bomba was originally built as a 3 stage bomb with a much higher yield, but at the last minute someone decided that one of the stages would be inert (packed with lead I believe), making it a 2 stage H bomb.
It was nerfed! and still did 50MT
when additives enter the blast, it is a dirty bomb - if those non explosives are an isolate, the material compounds in various ways, usually with flash, and depending on the element or compound used, the particles can super charge, hold for days, increase luminance, poison clouds, spread out fast, resist melting & create hot hail - plus, with any or some of those in the air, if the spiked warhead also hits the ground (or very close to it), the magnify aspect, radioactive soil, and strong downward thrust (appx 400-500ft), will float the soil & tainted, radical ions more level across the zone, leaving low hanging matter to permeate every alcove and penetrate bunkers & cellars.. just the release of one detonated warhead (15 to 20meg) is considered no less than the full industrial output of a medium sized nation, all at once; as they continually laid out with 'untargeted' nukes, for data, in underground & low to high stratos conditions, we are seeing the major contributing factor responsible for atmospherically permanent expansions of the density our sky has become over time, which is contacting more stellar winds than it's ever been bombarded with - this excites ions with far more energy, which, in turn blankets our outer sphere, creates friction, bringing electron flood & mixing with expansive gases & causing an exacerbation of global heat.. at the rate of secret testing that we hear of later, we're not only gonna lose on keeping our natural gas or petroleum to operate mechanical devices, we at this stage must (or should) plan, accordingly, remove guber managements for 'we the people' so this can be controlled more efficiently (main science has been letting it slide to polity punks).. if the appointed and elected are unwilling or insufficiently prepared (or use it as a money hole), the unity of the able citizens can draw on veritable resources, without red-tape, gubers, or consultants - because unity for a dire cause only happens when focused on the pertinent task (a weakness of capitol hill) and diligent with organized completion of that task (through proper understanding); gubers must exploit it for more pork bills & professors just move way too slow as their requests & experiments do not fight hard nor are they diligent..!!
you want a heavy tamper to contain the fusion for a few 10-20 ns more for maximum fusion, so Pb208 is ok. Non-fissile U238 is very heavy, and fissions under fast neutrons, which is what fusion makes, so you get a full 50 MT from U238... almost 6000 pounds of it: that's a lot of fall out.

The cold war era had to be the scariest time to be live. The thing that makes me uncomfortable is there is a reason these bombs still exist. The only changes we've made in the field is to make them deadlier.

As a descendant of two people who met at Los Alamos during the Manhattan Project, I am both morbidly fascinated by atomic/nuclear weapons and terrified that they will ever be used again.

He had it right the first time. Read it to yourself with your own eyeballs. “When you are turtle heading but you...”
The Tzar Bomba, when it was planned to be tested, the Soviets feared its destruction so they toned it down to HALF intensity. Even at half its potential power, it was still the largest man-made explosion ever created
The problem in that era with the technology, physics and maths available is that they really found it difficult to actually scale the detonation.
The US test Bravo was suppose to yield 15 megatons but it went much higher than that and probably was at the scale of the Tsar.
It was realized in the US that the super large detonations were not practical as a weapons system as they were so large and so heavy that there was no real means of delivery.
That is why they focused on smaller scale actuate systems hence why half the US arsenal today is low yield systems that have a very high likelihood of reaching their intended target.

not at all. the best we have right now is 1.8 megatons. Which is very much less than the tsar bomb as you see here.
There have been news reports of a Russian 100-megaton torpedo. If used in some future war to sink just one ship such as an oil tanker in the open ocean, the future use by the Russians of such a 100-megaton nuclear topedo to sink just one ship could arguably be considered to be a case of nuclear overkill.
However, the Russians are most likely thinking that such a powerful torpedo during some future war could sink every ship docked in an enemy port city, and at the same time exhibit collateral damage in the form of making an anti-Russian port city region such as New York City or Los Angeles too radioactive for people to live in for a century or so afterward.
Some people say that the Cold War between Russia and America never really ended, meaning that the nuclear arms race could very easily still be going on between the two superpowers. Now in the year 2021, who really knows what ghastly nuclear weapons have been created by the superpowers? My guess is that even the leaders of the two superpowers have not been told by their own military men about entire classes of various Cold War weapons systems of various sorts, Cold War weapons systems invented perhaps many decades ago that only the military men and the weapons manufacturers know about.
