  • In the last shot the black shape in the right of the water column is the USS Arkansas, a 500ft battleship standing vertically on its bow.

  • @draconey: there is absolutely nothing cool about atomic bombs. and the ones who planned this an forced the bikini natives to leave their home are just fucking basterds.

  • holy s**t

  • @kristopher0815 hippie detected, releasing pot smelling dogs

  • a couple hundred animals were harmed in the making of this film. cry yorself to sleep PETA and hippies.

  • @LawfulTots And without the research into atomic bombs we would not be where we are in terms of nuclear power plants and research today, one of the only true solutions to our energy problems.

  • @kristopher0815 So you find nothing interesting about mankind learning how to unlock the huge amounts of stored energy inside a small amount of matter? Nothing cool about successfully engineering the release of vast quantities of light and sound from something miniscule in size?

    True, the removal of natives and the destructive uses of atomic research are unfortunate. But you cannot discredit the scientists and engineers for their incredible leaps in technology.

  • coool

  • @Evocatorum

    Totally agree.

  • @kristopher0815

    Kris, it is not cool the destructive power that the bomb holds, what is cool, is the eminent power that the atom holds.

  • @MarkFitzx

    I like you.

  • @kristopher0815

    I apologize for saying it was 'cool'. Seeing the power that the atom has is cool, but understanding the effects is not.
