Inside a Nuclear Missile Silo

The US government had to convince Russia that this wasn't a live warhead. Russia has a satellite fly over the silo making sure the IBM is disabled.

The silo is near Tucson, Arizona

"Silo 7" (1988) was filmed here

why does the us have to convince russia its not a live missile its obvious russia has nuclear wepeans so why dont they let us have them

[homidog11]

@elmoskater we do have nuclear weapons. they are just on a smaller scale compared to this silo.

I'm just wondering, but is it not illegal to photograph the inside of a silo? Would that not be considered a security risk? - If I asked to go into the local nuclear power plant to take photos, they would have me in cuffs before I had the camera out of my bag.. -no employees at the nuk power plants are allowed to have cameras when at work. for security reasons, why is this on Youtube?

[homidog11]

@Crpetersena That is a good point. Prier to filming this I asked the people in charge if I was allowed to film. I'm not sure under what circumstances though.

I wonder if one of these silos super indestructable could with stand direct hit from an asteroid the like kind that killed dinosaurs 65 million years ago?

[homidog11]

@deltaalphaone1 it would probably be destroyed, considering asteroids that size leave mile deep holes

[homidog11]

@profsat5 thats a pretty heavy price to pay for something like that. i'm surprised they haven't filled it, knowing how much the government likes covering things up.

@homidog11 Don't get me wrong, it is an extremely interesting video.

[elmoskater]

@homidog11 its obvious us has nuclear bombs that are over 20mt it wouldnt suprise me if they serectly have something more powerfull then the tsar bomb hidden somewere

[Stokich]

@Crpetersena Because it is declassified and disarmed silo. That isn't a working sight anymore

@deltaalphaone1 It would be incinerated, probably by an asteroid no smaller then a 5 story building. A house size asteroid made a 3/4 mile crater about 50 million years ago.
