Bikini nuclear test

Where the fuck is that awesome background music from its so perfect

I wish I could see some if these videos in HD, that would be nice.. ;)

just hated that US used ships from japan and germany at that time for the tests.... a nice way they found to humiliate more the countries...

btw a side note: IJN Nagato survided the 1st nuclear test, only went down on the 2nd test :>

the music couldn't be more appropriate

why in the world would navy boats want to be where the blast is

They were used for the test. Nobody was on them

Its a test, they used old ships (some captured from the Germans and Japanese) from World War 2 to see the effects of a nuclear blast at sea.

Umm... No, Hirohito wanted to surrender after the first one. It was hideki tojo who had more power than him, and thus, overruled him. After the second bomb, the military counsul couldn't reach a agreement so they brought it to hirohito and went with whatever he said. Hirohito did not have absolute control over Japan, even though he was the emporer.
