6.8 Magnitude Earthquake Simulated by Underground Nuclear Explosion!

[kvr13]

AWESOME!!!! and good quality, and where was it detonated anyway?

[Spionsilver]

sick freaks ..what would be the use of detonating a nuclear bomb in the underground=?

did they try to trigger some tectonic doomsday or what?dont fuck around with the planet..it may fuck you back someday..

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

dude your dumb. detonating a nuclear device underground wont cause tectonic shift. the forces released are minimal in comparison to what the rest of the earth holds. not only that but underground tests create a sort of "radiation shield" where the glasified rock contains most of the products. oh and lrn 2 science

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 how would you know what happens down there when 5+MT detonate.. didn´t you listen more than 1000 aftershocks within 30 days(which is what they told us).. now that is what i call getting seriously involved into plate business since everybody knows that the aleuts are active zone..what was the purpose of these dumb tests..exept of wastin billions and billions of money..nobody ever took serious profit out of that shit..

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

there has been more than just this underground nuclear test. maybe if you did a little research you would be a little more educated, that way your stupid remarks on scientific progression wouldn't distract from the rest of us. Perhaps instead of posting with an opinion backed on air you could actually contribute. please do some god damn research before you start making outrageous claims.

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 the fact that this wasn´t the sole underground test ever! conducted..(the US needed -1030- of nuclear test overall to get relevant data..) makes it even worse.. they wanted to know how much good ol planet earth can take..now they do.those wild firecracker days polluted our air with some 8500 pounds of plutonium..causing all that cancer and modern diseases..now thats somtehing we all can be proud of..

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

holy fuck man, you need to learn when to stop. you see this, all of you comments are just proving how stupid you really are. Go learn how plate tectonics work, learn how nuclear devices work, maybe some physics, then come back and we can talk. stop being one of those science hating freaks that bring the rest of humanity down. you are holding us all back, get a life, or better yet an EDUCATION.

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 when i am at it..there is no stop;) and what is there to learn about how a nuclear device works?..simple technology..that is why everybody is afraid of the little people having their hands on that stuff..;) must be the reason for every stupid redneck to have one atomic proof bunker in their backyards.. go ask some harrisburg kids if they think nuclear is ok..education is when you know what happens before it happens the wrong way

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

Honestly we should be teaching nuclear physics in school at younger ages. the world is evolving, and so is human intelligence. Not all forces observed as destructive are indeed destructive, simply look at dynamite; this TOOL was used to shape your very existence today. You cant tell me that recent developments in nuclear technology are bad, in fact you may wish to take a look at whats know as a Pebble Bed Reactor. stop thinking destructively, it hurts to see someone so low.

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231

sorry i need to add: a nuclear device such as a Fission or Fusion bomb is incredibly hard to make. Merely isolating enough U235 is a feat in its own, then you have to worry about handling the stuff, oh and creating the right blast that will cause the reaction, OH in if your making a fusion bomb you have to properly shield your Hydrogen source and "fuse it" with another amount of U235. by the time you do this your sitting at home dying of rad sickness with an AR up yourNose

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 yeah hard to make (in terms of a guy working on it in his garage..)

but easy to build (if you are willing to) in modern labs/facilities which are available in most industrial established countrys..even pakistan knows how to

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 nice you very much tell me that i should looke at the positive side of nuclear sience.. i would love to ..

but blasting 5MT into the ground or 10MT into a peacefull pacific atoll isn´t anything positive or helpful to look at..just a big devastation show with politics behind it..

the technology is all fine and fascinating but the side-effects are to dangerous and too unsafe for future generations to deal with..where to put all the radioactive waste later??

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

another side note, if you were paying attention, the blast filmed in this video "was the main motivating factor in the creation of the green peace organization" Mabe just mabe you should look that up.

Stop being butthut about science, when people don't know they sometimes make mistakes,and its our job, as the future of humanity, to learn from them, to know not to make them again.

Also you might want to find out how weapons grade U235 is made, its not as simple as you may think.

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231

Again i cant stress enough, how researching the topic you are about to have a debate in is critical to having any standing. i don't mean just being able to state trivial facts but a thorough understanding of the mechanics. otherwise you just make a fool of yourself.

[Spionsilver]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 of course it is not that simple ..otherwise every other stupid lunatic dictator would have built one atomic bomb of his own..

i have no problem at all with science and the need of learning..but i only know a few countrys that drove it to the edge of stupidity..politics were taking over.. ok we have a 11 MT weapon now..lets built and test a 12MT weapon..and the US leads in that stupid nuclear-show-off list close followed by them drunk ones..with their 57MT piece of shit

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@Spionsilver

The world has seen the destruction, understands the consequences of nuclear war. that's why the cold war didn't turn into Fallout.

seeing as the latest use of nuclear devices on the island is 1971 you can look forward to now, and understand that we have learned much more than merely spiting atoms. look at a periodic table, element 95 Americium, the result of years of research is now located in you own home, protecting you, saving lives.

[rockmetalmanpjm5231]

@rockmetalmanpjm5231 And please don't insult the Russians their lives are equally as important as any other, they play just as large a role in scientific discovery as us all. Take knowledge from war, or those whose lives were lost, lost them in vain. what we can do now is to progress as humanity, to stop hating one another because of differences, and work together.

[HuDaFuK]

Mother nature just shat herself.

[xxgashinho17xx]

Holly Crap its only a bomb i know a huge but dammmnnnn .

[emixam101]

INSANE ! lol

[grandpameikel]

stupid americans

[maygodkillyou]

we had a 6.8 today ! still shaking !

[rono8582]

BILL SHATNER! FUCK YEA!

[420SweetCali]

What the Hell is wrong with Humanity?!? Life could have been so much better if we would have choose to Love more than hate. We destroy, pollute, or kill is the driving force behind what we invent. Instead of putting or money, resources, and Intelligence towards projects that would better Humanity we put it all towards the death of our so called "enemies". It sickens me, we should all be ashamed of what we have become!!

[jamcrane3]

@420SweetCali

Consider that we humans have possessed the ability to destroy ourselves totally for 60 years now, and we haven't done it yet. Doesn't that say something good about Humanity?

[airsoftmanic]

@jamcrane3 not really. the only reason it hasn't happened yet is because of M.A.D. only takes one crackpot leader (kim jong il or immadinnerjacket) to launch one or two nukes for everyone to crack them off. thats the reason for the near-probable future war in iran, we seriously dont want a maniac with nuclear capability.

[420SweetCali]

We just had a 6.8 earthquake in the last week or so and people think it was an underground nuclear explosion. I'm starting to believe it, considering where we had the earthquake is somewhere that rarely gets one at all!

[jamcrane3]

@TheSwissRepublic And just why are the "elite" pushing us into a war that they know very well shall destroy our entire race? That includes you folks in Switzerland, for you have to come out of those bunkers sometime.

To a nuclear winter, or a runaway greenhouse effect, and a world wide blanket of poisonous radiation.

Where did you see me say that the US would win, or that anyone else would win? I merely made the point that our enemies gave us no choice but to match or exceed their capabilities

[poppajah]

what song is this? 

[SuperFarinelli]

a stal wyparowała?

[jamcrane3]

These tests served many purpose in the development of nuclear weapons such as design tweaks for increased or variable yields, determining what damage could be expected from various combinations of yield and means of delivery, developing the ability to monitor the testing of our enemies, and developing foolproof launch or delivery protocols and triggering mechanisms to prevent unauthorized use.This extensive testing may have in fact prevented Armageddon.

[puncheex]

@jamcrane3: Ummm, actually, this weapon was a development test for a Spartan ABM warhead.

[jamcrane3]

@puncheex

I'm sure you're right. I was responding to several individuals who bemoaned the necessity of repeated nuclear testing (apparently they think one design fits all situations), and I was listing the reasons why repeated testing was necessary and why it probably prevented nuclear war.

[dravenbloodwood]

right yah lets nuc the soil just for a test nothing like sensless contamination!!!!!

[jamcrane3]

@dravenbloodwood

In short, they kept us free.

There were terrible environmental consequences yes, but it was quite necessary to fully develop these capabilities in order to convince our enemies that could be no possible winners in an all out thermonuclear war. (MAD)

We can only now hope that the human race has become fully cognizant that there is no political or religious ideology that can justify the complete destruction of our planet and our own magnificent species.

[damianw94]

the bomb was 1,6 kilometers(1miles) deep in the earth

[xbjohnson]

Aww Jeez... I told Chuck Norris he shouldn't have eaten that triple bean Burrito for breakfast... but nooooooo....

[EricCaddy]

Does anybody knows when this happened ?

[ryanvoyles1]

o dear lord

[TouringMedal2]

the music just makes this 20 times more epic

[TygrFr3d]

This can't be real... is it?

[GunsOfThePhoenix]

@TygrFr3d Yep it is, during the 60's up through the 80's we were testing to see how much damage buildings could survive from possible Soviet nuclear anti-bunker bombs.

[jamcrane3]

@TygrFr3d

Very real indeed.

[elmochilerocanadiens]

is this legit?

[Canuckcrisis]

noooooooo
