@Assi2004 Yeah because this was filmed in the mid 1940s...

[Assi2004]

@bIoodypingu they had high speed cameras back then already, but never mind

@Assi2004 That's a photo, not a video.

Oh man, thank you for this. Pretty much one of the only shots Ive never seen in 15 years of interest in nuclear weapons. Where the hell did you find this?

@philritter21 Back in 1980, my platoon sergeant told me about being at two of the "Plumbob" tests in 1957. I also knew a man who was at "Crossroads" in 1946. I have been interested in post war testing for many years, too, and it was a special treat to know these two men and hear their stories.
