Atomic Bomb Test; Operation Cue from 1955 (Original version)

[Joseph565112]

@ImtheDesertFox the greater question is...why didnt your daddy pull out?

Seriously - small nuclear weapon + steel and concrete = survival, retard

[27yrs]

they probably set the cameras miles away. then put very high powered lens on them.

[ImtheDesertFox]

How did these cameras survive?

[MrJimijoe]

@ImtheDesertFox Not only how did the camera's survive but they don't even move... Anyone know what they were housed in???

[endimion17]

@MrJimijoe Thick concrete bunkers with small, thick windows.

[Joseph565112]

That's not just smoke....that's the fuckin paint vaporizing off the face of the buildings

[aKILLAfromAPK]

crazy that this was almost the ending for back to the future

[zvoneACDCrak]

@0:00 say cheez

[fokinmatt]

this is going to happen now thanks to the japs assholes

[justsuper9]

Chuck Norris sneezed.

[cdude100]

how did those cameras survive?

[vejet]

@cdude100 Whats even more impressive is that they barely moved when the blast wave hit. They must of been placed behind concrete bunkers.

[zibbledy]

yippee!! A great way to mow the lawn!

[creepbehindyourback2]

imagine being marturbating on to that same old room 

[Laughosity]

this is amazing and scary.

[usukker]

nothing happened to cement house :P

[abstract8moldova]

reptilians do this not people ... everyone who thinks this is funny gonna burn in hell and will be fucked in the asshole by the devill eternally

[jeffsandychelsea]

Maybe we should design our buildings more like power substations... 0:15

[StarWarsFan786]

1955? So the atomic bomb test in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystall Skull" is based on a real event?

[triggerdance]

@StarWarsFan786 indies is 1957

[1337Ravage]

@StarWarsFan786 they tested a ton of bombs back then. but im sorry to say you won't survive an atom bomb by hiding in a fridge though :P

[crowtservo]

OMGZ! A nuclear blast! I need to hurry up and hide in a fridge!

[mvillasanac]

Which atomic bomb was this? Trinity, Fat man or little boy?

[paramedic90emt]

@mvillasanac None of the above.

[kearneymarc]

cool shit

[chimross]

0:38!! i notice it! white horse! yea! w/ wings!!!!

[7blueblood]

did any1 else notice the unicorn at 0:37 ?

[grimm61111]

right before these things get pulverized, you can see the superheat burning everything

[TheNp42]

@grimm61111

It's called "heat radiation" in the form of gamma rays, not "superheat".

[DrOetker14]

fake footage!

if they were filming a bomb with the power to do that, then why is it the camera stayed perfectly still in the middle of the shock wave

[eagerbeaver53]

@DrOetker14 um if its bolted down it aint gonna move jack ass did the power plant move no and how would they have faked it exactly and what would be the point

[DrOetker14]

@eagerbeaver53 i was only suggesting the possibility of fake footage, there's no need to randomly insult me

[eagerbeaver53]

@DrOetker14 i was high and intergetic sorry just wanted to say somethin

[MrJDazz1230]

I wanna see 0:24-0:29 in slow motion.

Actually wait....never mind.

The whole thing.

[l337m0x]

dammmmmmmmmmn!

[penna420]

it's from the film Terminator, don't know witch one.

[mrantihippie]

@penna420 lol...dumbass.

[NarratorJRJenkins]

what i wonder is how the hell did they get cameras that suvived the blastt!!!

[G4MEnM0VI3T3ASERS]

if u notice the camera cuts out as soon as the smoke retreats back so i think it was destroyed and they just had whatever footage was before

[NarratorJRJenkins]

@G4MEnM0VI3T3ASERS but how did they manage to save the film?

[jacko5592]

I think this footage was used in the movie, "The Day After"

[LilAsianXGster203]

see they test it first

[DrunkenAsparagus]

And to think only a few pounds of material did all that 0_0

[olivers125]

man....i feel the power

[Theluiscalderon86]

how did the cameras survive the blast? Why didn't they gidder move or anything??? How was this filmed?

[TehKazangsta]

the heat that bomb produces must be unreal, for paint to be blown off a wall from miles a way.

[halobignoob]

why does it implode?

[joshbarber89]

@halobignoob Does not implode. When the atomic bomb reaches it's hypocenter and explodes, alot of energy is released in a full 360 degrees, hence shockwave. The suction occurs to counter balance all the "energy" that was lost from the detonation hypocenter, hence why the explosion cloud grows to over 100 stories.

[ricericebabyx]

i'm guessing the random unicorn in the middle of the blast is the "slightly edited" part? xD xD

[per5on1]

really cool but really scary :)

[CuteNekoKid]

whoa, that's crazy. It's so frightening o.o

[hotelmario510]

0:07-0:16

What happens when God lights a fart.

[joerisoldier]

@hotelmario510 LOL XD

[hotelmario510]

@joerisoldier LOL

[hansfraj]

Hell machine.

[wileyk209zback]

Some of the clips used here were also used in "The Day After" in 1983 when Kansas City is blown up by the nukes.

[sinXcrossfire]

yeh i all so tht unicorn,. damn wierd

[csakesz182]

reconstruction

[FoolThrottleRacing]

How do the cameras not get blown to pieces?.....

[dandynood]

Maybe its god's home made camera

[wileyk209zback]

The cameras get destroyed, but the film in them does not. After the explosion, they recover the damaged cameras, remove the film from it, develop any usable film (i.e. film that isn't torn or damaged) and show that.

[FoolThrottleRacing]

Sounds like we need to make suits out of that film!........ Nuke proof movies....huh. Go hollywood!

[SickXXenD]

ROFL@ wileyk209zback ARE U SERIOUS? you need to come to the dramatic conclusion that the government is lying to you and that was some really fake ass shit.

[wileyk209zback]

No, I just know how cameras work.

[SickXXenD]

Ahh I see and i'm sure you're an expert on nuclear blasts as well eh?

[SickXXenD]

I'm really not trying to be mean man. You just need to understand that the footage is faked it's all 1950's crappy movie magic to make you think you're looking at a nuclear blast when you're not. take a look at some other video's of the same supposed event look at the items supposedly placed near the blast and examine the supposed effects carefully you should eventually come to find you have been deceived.

[BCOLES100]

I'm not entirely sure you know what you are talking about.

Notice that the paint on the houses starts to char.

Then the blast wave, now called a mach wave, hits the house. It is called a mach wave because it is traveling at approximately 940 mph.

(Think a category 2 Hurricane then multiply it by about 10) overpressure is about 50 psi.

That will knock down a house for sure.

This is real footage and it doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

Do some research before posting anything else. OK

[persian88]

yeah thats bad

[Aqwsed90]

Atomic bomb vs house equals no more house!

[ProjektPete]

atomic bomb vs major city equals no more major city...

[09011994]

i love how before the shockwave, you can see the paint and outer part of the building burn off.

[Intransitman]

The great stuff that has taken place in Area 51.

[DjHardaFasta]

no actually it was taken in new mexico!

[TheImpactor]

WICKED! 0:38. the smoke just below the power lines turns into a horse with wings!

[TWJ8305]

i see it! WTF!

[JouninKS]

Dude I see it too. Thats fuckin sick!!! Its a Unicorn. Without the horn of course

[Psychotic0Strawberry]

A unicorn with out a horn is a horse.

[JouninKS]

A Horse Doesn't have wings. Therefore its a Unicorn. Just a Unicorn without a Horn because it was sawed off and sold for money in the same way people sell Elephant Tusks

So its a Unicorn :D

[02WRXsuby]

you mean a peaguses?

[jmartinezlp]

@JouninKS haha I guess a unicorn without a horn but with wings is a pegasus? :D

[rosswoof]

pegasus!? nicely spotted

[DNAngelnut]

holy hell that is wierd

[TacticalForceUSA]

@TheImpactor ..... Wow, how did you catch that, you got a good eye.

[JulianHuxtable]

@TheImpactor nice eye dude you are totally right!

[lrishRebeI]

@TheImpactor thats sum fckd up shit

[Blazingb00mrang]

@TheImpactor "And I looked and behold, a pale horse

And his name that sat on him was Death

And Hell followed with him."

[bmwfanz]

i thing a nuclear bomb can distory half of china

[tatternuts27]

how the hell can they put cameras there?

[Intransitman]

Mirrors and bunkers.

[Meerkatguy11]

ok wouldnt those ppl be destroyed too? if ur able to see the cloud doesnt that mean ur too dam close?

[Morten9K]

You have to picture the size of this thing. At 16 times more powerful than a gun type bomb (e.g. little boy dropped over Hiroshima), this could be seen from a great distance. The observation post was about 20 miles from ground zero.

[Meerkatguy11]

but only 20 miles? i thought atomics could hit about 50

[lJavieR7l]

So much Distruction

[kungfu70]

this disaster after this looks like my messy room

[RustleXer]

... oh yeah like duck and cover can save you from that.

[fartheadedpoopface]

pimpin aint easy

[banloo29]

lol what, do you nuke yo hos when they aint gots no cash

[fartheadedpoopface]

I send my bitches to get me some beer

then I nuke their asses

[adethelemon]

I pray none of us ever get to feel the heat.

Great colour upgrade!

[Aesyr83]

WOOOOOOOOO!!

[nuclearforge3]

What the hell the shock wave recedes too??

-Poop-

[Gorbachev4Life]

Billy Mays would have one word about all this: "KABOOM!"

[acuraRule12355]

Sweet

[dissturbbed]

i bet there would be more deaths due to heat than the blast..., man that looks hot as hell

[AnAmericanIdiot05]

Um. . . If the bomb did that to the houses, then how did they campture it on tape without the camera catching on fire then being blown to NOTHING?? I dont understand

[seanmcj]

it might have been caught on those indestructible black boxes

[flyinghammer360]

a camera touched by Jesus?.......

[Kenn1965]

The cameras that caught these images were actually destroyed. They broadcast remotely to tape before the heat/blast shattered them. Best example : the film of the mannequins inside one of the houses. Just a second or so after the "flash" from outside, the film stops when the shock wave hits.

[forestrocks]

if u wer in a basement would you be safe from it

[xantemxiox]

depends how deep your basement is and how far the blast was :P

[forestrocks]

that's my biggest fear

[Ramby75]

YES!!!

[crayolamuncher]

Red horse of those 4 apocalypse horses!!!!! 0_0

[peterm3964]

MMMMM GAMMA RAYS  >>> SO WARM

[GreenConstrictors]

Is the horse at 0:38 the slightly edited part?

[ianpaul007]

what horse?

[GreenConstrictors]

At 0:38 a horse forms from the telephone pole just to the right above the house, then it gets swept away.

[ianpaul007]

omg it does!!! thats trippy haha

[AnAmericanIdiot05]

I saw it too!!! lolz

[lYesterdayAgainl]

Crazyness

[1981z28camaro]

crazy!, it looks like a horse with wings! or a fucking dragon! lol

[peterm3964]

Pause at :38 . see a white horse .

[denestud]

WoW!!! looks like a unicorn

good eye you got there lol :P

[kzuyex]

and the horse flew away also :F

[mirandaesteban]

i guess the best place to be in a nuclear explosion its in a video camera xDDDD

[WarowQ]

Uuhm... Why can a camera survive that shockwave but a house can't? >.>

[LA3226]

were those houses concrete?

[numbar2]

wow on like the third house shot if u look at the white smoke forming before the explosion above the house it looks like it forms a flying horse lol

[2011mart]

haha oh yea lol

[Rio356]

whats the black stuff that comes out of the houses and otherthings before they explode?o_O

[XBloodstar]

The Black Stuff that comes out of the house before exploding is smoke. The inside burn then the explosion makes house go BOOM!!!!

[TommyBloxxer]

no the blast wave makes the house go BOOM!!!!

[TommyBloxxer]

the black stuff that comes out of the houses is smoke and fire. the burning material releases smoke because x-rays and gamma rays heat em up. the temperature can rais up to 1,000,000c. depends on how much is being released.

[crackerdude1]

those look like good cameras

[bhavaniputra]

IyestedayagainI give ur mom and ur your girl friend and ur sister to me, I feel like fucking them

[lYesterdayAgainl]

What up!

[happyboyy8k]

everything blow off except the camera. hahhaah

[NateCan2]

haha i see that unicorn too!!!

how did the camera's not disiegrate?

[1981z28camaro]

yeah it looks like a Unicorn "Fable creature impossible to capture" :-)

[ASmokingFly]

Should we even need troops?

[CAPTA1N1NSANO]

i just saw a unicorn at 0:38 seconds in the top right corner......OMG

-cameron and joel

[kroko102]

oh yeah its there : D

[NealTheRealDeal]

i see it lol

[Luizinhokbcao]

korea war yes!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Eddiedaclown]

no joke paste this comment to 3 more pictures and press Alt. Princess josephina will go on screen and undress

[watsucht]

so what we an do is just live inside "protective force fields", to protect ourself agaisnt atomic bombs

[knexdck1]

look at the white smoke at 0:37,

looks like a horse.

[Theneutralcool]

its a rider of the apocalypse...

whoa that is kinda creepy lol

[metalbizkit12]

cool

[greenmachine250r]

omg... at first I thought what a stupid comment, but you're absolutely right XD

[Deathblow420]

who the fuck is them?

[Deathblow420]

if the some one could POST or rply the answer to they the camera doesnt move that would be apprectiated

i think one day the world will see a more destructive wepons watching this could be like the first people seeing a machin gun unknown wepons we cant imagine and mybe on larger scales then just earth

already we mesasure wars death in thousands and millions the more humnas the more things that infect evreything around us around them.

-stoned rant

[atterocz]

I must wonder how is possible that, with all the power that can easily destroy buildings and stuff, the camera is so steady.

Does anybody know why is that possible?

Srry for any mistakes.

[mbm13213]

They deployed a protective force field around the camera.

[helloyorumcu]

FUCK AMERICA !!! FUCK ISRAEL !!! These are Terrorist....!!! ISRAEL IS TERROR STATE.

[trojanhorse1994]

calm down arab, see your the one resulting to violence not us

[S0vereignty]

Muslims are the real terrorists. Your vile religion is one of the great evils of the world.

[Invalidstyrkan]

Ignorance is the only evil.

[lYesterdayAgainl]

Wow you know how to copy and paste. Its progress. I am sure getting used to the mouse is hard too ): LICK MY ASSHOLE helloyorumcu !!!!!!

[lYesterdayAgainl]

You posted the same thing twice. YOU DON'T KNOW ENGLISH DO YOU!

[jaymzthaman]

one question...how the heck did the cameras survive?

[YouJustL0stTheGame]

GODZIRRA!

[davidfersure]

everyone in that video died is dead now from radiation poisoning lol.

[Eberflame]

Shit that strange that in the second 0:38 the smoke in the right corner leaving the wire, turn into a unicorn.

[Frexoor]

wow you´re right

[elodd87]

WOW i see that. thats pretty fd up

[timmytalks]

its Pegusus!!

[haloislife08]

Cool how the buildings light up then exploded forward and backwards.

[beertits4me]

that little pig should have made his house of brick

[JobbK]

XD whahaha

[theawesomone]

lol, he should have built a bunker instead.

[randomism123]

idk wear metallica is but im gunna agree with ya

[Ycampus]

How does the smoke come backwards after every shockwave hit to house.

[Sarsgnu]

Cuz the shockwave pushes all the air from the area and then after the shockwave it rushes back to fill the gap.

[Ycampus]

ooh i didnt know that

8-O

whats with all the smokey particles prior to the shock wave? e.g. 00:25

?
