To bad they did not tell the soldiers they would be apart of the experiment as well.

It seems like all these atomic test videos are spiced together...some from Cue, Annie, Grable and others.

@TheVariantstrain

Could you possibly help me in naming the shot names filmed at 1:22 1:29 1:42 & 1:17 and is it just me or is the footage here purposely converted to black and white? I've seen some of this footage like that at 1:22 in colour before.

there was a group of people that were sent into the blast sight with inproper clothing for there kind of work and all died of radioactive poisoning. apperently US sent them in there to test the side efects on human beings......... thats a douche bag move >:(

these tests wernt for finding out how your parents could survive, they were to see the damage inflicted on population centres wether it be an enemy or an ally and how powerful the effects were, how much damage could be done and how effective salting methods were for creating a larger long term toxic area.

nikos4free - These tests were so your parents could survive a nuclear attack and they could eventually have an ignorant and uneducated child.

What a waste of money, waste of resources, waste of man effort and DESTRUCTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT. It is pathetic and stupid. I cannot understand you people.

[wiley207]

This was done back in 1955 just to test how bad the effects of an atomic explosion would be. This was called "Operation Cue," if I'm not mistaken

Man is part of the environment.
