Hiroshima Atomic Bomb, 1945 - A Day That Shook The World [HD]. The first atom bomb to be used as a weapon, "Little Boy" (as was its codename) was dropped on to the flat terrain of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. The bomb vapourised buildings and killed nearly 70,000 people directly but by the end of 1945, nearly 100,000 had died from its protracted effects.

A Day That Shook The World is the classic series that recalls the days of the 20th century that proved to be era-defining and pivotal in the course of modern history.

  • That was a game cameraman on the ground at the playground. :)

  • @freeskierjay1233 Not other way around. Either invade or bomb. Simple as that. 

  • @kentamitchell

    Overwhelmingly whites work in banks that jews own. Therefore whites run banks

    Fuzzy logic & Kosher math is fun

  • @kentamitchell

    Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed 55 years ago, on June 19.

    Just takes one or two rotten bagels though doesn't it.

    Shalom

  • @JYangSCA I AGREE WITH YOU.

  • @ATLANTICCITY24 if only it were that simple

  • WAR IS HORRIBLE. IT SEEMS EASIER FOR NATIONS TO BUILD ATOMIC BOMBS THAN TO SHAKE HANDS WITH ONE ANOTHER & FIND PEACE ON EARTH. THE CITY OF PEOPLE DESTROYED IN A BLINK OF AN EYE. THAT MUSHROOM OF SMOKE IS ALL THE SOULS GOING STRAIGHT UP TO HEAVEN. NO ONE DESERVES THIS FATE. WAR IS NOT THE ANSWER IT IS A DEATH SENTENCE. IF WAR WERE THE SOLUTION EVERYONE WOULD BE AT PEACE. THERE IS NO VICTORY IN DEATH.

  • @kentamitchell thats kind of obvious

  • @Doneer34 Whatever. The Tsar bomb was a white elephant- a publicity stunt by Khruschchev

  • @kentamitchell not only blast radius but also radiation and it was reported that it caused 3rd degree burns from 67 miles away!
