The B-52 on a low level insertion would turn it's tail to the blast and run like Hell. If possible it would duck behind those mountains, anything to get away from the initial blast. B-52s of the era were the naturla aluminum color to reflect some of the flash
I kinda doubt the plane made it out of the area in time. I don't know the speed of the bomb run, but if they were doing 500 knots, that would only get them a couple of miles out (presuming the time from drop to impact was real time...16 seconds)...not far enough given the size of the bomb. The Enola Gay was 11 miles from Hiroshima and still got knocked around pretty good...plus they were at higher altitude and undamaged, unlike Maj. Kong's plane.
stanley kubrick is the best film maker of all time,even better than spielberg in my opinion. just watch his three major films: full metal jacket, clockwork orange and dr.strangelove
nagasaki was bombed, though they planned bombing another area,
But it was To cloudy, And Nagasaki Nearly Missed, Barely Wiping it out
(still causing a Huge Death rate of 50k)
And After the bombing, Russia Was about to declare war on Japan, And Japan Prime ministers suggest to Surrender, But the General Disagrees,
The prime ministers said that tokyo Was to be Bombed to, but they surrendered, And The General Killed himself with his Inherited katana, As an apology...
@ProductionsHead From what i've heard the bombs they dropped on nagasaki and hiroshima were the last two bombs the united states had. In trinity they had three bombs, the first one is the one they tested and the last two they used.
very good movie but the nukes we have today are so much more powerful these nukes are little baby bombs. nukes will be the end of all life on this planet
BP CEO Tony Hayward could ride one down to put out the oil spill from that gushing ruptured deep-sea wellhead in the Gulf of Mexico ...what do you think?
What makes you so sure Slim wouldn't/couldn't survive? I believe he could! I also believe in evolution, global warming, JFK was a great president and the tooth fairy. Was Dr Strangelove made by National Geographic? It's a fine documentary!
what is with people not know that when you have to vowels together it is not a epic -- it is AN epic, AN easy way, AN action, AN opinion -- educate people - EDUCATE
@oldmanwithers1 Only thing cooler would be detonating a nuke, and using the heat from the explosion and a mirror to light a cigarette. Then you get swallowed by the explosion. Be kinda like sinking with the ship, and a final FUCK YOU to humanity, and death himself.
Assuming you are talking about Slim Pickens (the cowboy) riding the nuke down as it falls and acting all happy about it.
He had to fix the bomb doors which were malfunctioning but right when he does they are over the target so he does'nt have a chance to get off the nuke before it drops.
So what does he do? Well what can he do?
He goes to his death yelling and screaming in wild jubilation for it's ALWAYS better to face certain death proud and defiant than weak and trembling.
He did'nt know they were exactly right above the target therefore he did'nt scrabble to get off the bomb because he did'nt realize it was about to drop just 5 seconds after he got the bomb doors to work.
@WhirlingWolves Bit of trivia: originally Peter Sellers was cast in the Slim Pickens role but he injured himself and couldn't play it, along with the three other roles he DOES play in the movie, so Slim was cast instead.
@WhirlingWolves Nobody really cares how a man spends his last 3 seconds. In a movie, like this, it's cool, but in real life, it's really not important. Stand defiant and die, or tramble and die, both are the same.
@WhirlingWolves I heard a story that the cowboy actually intended to die. Whether he knew about the bomb to go down or that he hated his job and wanted to end it all. So when the bomb dropped he was happy as hell that he was done.
Kubrik was making this a serious movie until Fail Safe came out; so he made it into a comedy. Peter Sellers was great, imho, but so were all of the actors.
Slim Pickens was a great actor, every movie he was in he made watchable and entertaining. Very under rated by hollywood but adored by fans. This is a graet movie because of the fantastic actors in it. Hollywood could NEVER redo this one, there are not enough good actors left to staff it/
