At 2:45 in the morning of August 6, 1945, an American B-29 bomber flew north from Tinian Island in the Marianas toward Japan. Three and a half hours later, over the city of Hiroshima, the Enola Gay dropped an 8,900-pound atomic weapon from its specially modified bomb bay. Two thousand feet above the ground, the bomb, dubbed "Little Boy" by its makers, detonated, leveling almost 90% of the city.


On August 9, another B-29, Bockscar, set out for the Kokura Arsenal on the southwest Japanese island of Kyushu. Foul weather, however, persuaded the pilot to proceed instead toward Nagasaki, the home of a Mitsubishi torpedo factory. Over this secondary target Bockscar dropped a larger device, code-named "Fat Man." Local geography spared Nagasaki from the near total devastation suffered by Hiroshima; only one third of the city was destroyed.

  • can anyone confirm that this is real? why was there to explosions on the first one?

  • they deserved 9/11!!!!!!!!!

  • @edwardd6681 the bombings saved many lives in the long run actually, both US and Japan. The war even ended a week later because of this. I wouldn't hate truman so much for the bombs either. He asked Japan and warned them to surrender, they didn't, war is war, simple as pie.

  • @Zabatsue hm i see at 0:10 2 mushrooms. One little in the front and a bigger one in the background. But yes you can be right.

  • @Bartdee1995 actually that was one explosion the mushroom cloud was distorted to to the camera and the window of the bomber

  • The problem is: in the first part of the Video you see 2 Explosions, but in Hiroschima and Nagasaki it was everytime only 1 Explosion. The attack of Nagasaki was many days after the first of Hiroschima. So: this video is a fake !

  • Fat man.. Thats from fallout. I guess that's where they got it from.

  • faker than fake.

  • @edwardd6681 pearl harbor was a cowardly suprise attack on on us, they had no reason to do that, and the only way they'd give up was if we did the same, if we hadnt done that they wud have cotinued kamikaze attacks on our people, but we just happened to have nukes at the time and japan didnt

  • @edwardd6681 Lol I love how you can't come up with an educated response, you just do what stupid people do, throw out profanity and discouraging words in hopes that i'll go away.
