Guys this is a re-upload. After nearly 2 years and 2 million views UA-cam's algorithm decided that showing a hand igniting a pile of gunpower was displaying a dangerous act, like making an explosive, and so they killed the video. I tried to appeal it but a human agreed with the AI. I hate uploading old stuff but this was some of my most popular work, so I didn't want to waste it. My apologies if you lost a comment or an interesting thread but there was literally nothing I could do about it. Rest assured I'm working on some new content at the moment!
I appreciate the re-upload. This is one of your most compelling and informative pieces of content and I know I've recommended it to many people. It's certainly not your fault you've had to re-upload "old stuff" and I, along with many others, wont judge you negatively for it. Thank you for creating this documentary in the first place.
Yeah Styropyro was on a panel recently where they mentioned how ridiculous that is, like making a laser that could literally fry your eyes out or a gas that's deadly with a single breath is fine, but fire and explosives are instantly nuked off the site, no pun intended.

Whenever something is removed your safe in assuming it was youtube policy. Free speech and thought is consistently under attack. There is a case currently in the Supreme court regarding gov't (biden's) censorship on social media. I have conflicting notions. On one hand free speech should be protected as the highest priority under a liberal democracy. On the other hand people are stupid and misinformation abounds. There is one primary and unassailable issue with the gov't censorship side. The gov't are only people, too. People shouldn't be able to control what other people say and think. That is the definition of authoritarianism. Classic liberalism is consistently under attack as well. Even by people who call themselves 'liberals'. Which makes zero sense. Changing and shifting the definition of words is a slick, underhanded, and covert way of confusing and programming a populace. The revolution having previously failed on its own merits uses covert, underhanded, and insidious means of furthering its goals. Demoralized and radicalized, you shall be.
Additionally tritium has around a decade of half-life, much like night sights lose brightness over the years, you lose the tritium in a thermonuclear device. Normal corrosion itself also affects the core. Plutonium is a metal and it oxidizes.
This video could be the basis of a graduate level course on the topic. I have been studying the history and science of nuclear weapons for about fifty years (ever since I came across an NSF report titled "The Long Term Effects of Multiple Nuclear Weapon detonations) This is by far the most thoroughly researched, scientifically accurate presentation on this topic. My sincerest compliments!
If you've been "studying" this topic and found this video to be the most comprehensive explanation you've come across, then you're not really studying it.
@@Martingray7875 Five minutes in and seeing one error after another, some of them elementary: 4:46 "This process converts all of the solid to a gas." No it doesn't, and the previously shown chemical equation itself shows that it doesn't, and any kid who ever made black powder knows that it doesn't. This is the sort of video I give up on, and it's a pity. With the increase of TTS robot narrators and AI-gathering of stills, video-clips, and text-generation, it's refreshing to hear actual people.

Great to see this video back. How can one of the best researched and informative videos be taken down by YT considering the absolute other crap that populates much of the YT universe. Keep it up mate. Your vids are absolutely top class.
I'll tell you why, because he produced this excellent documentary independent of the big players and on his own dime. The 'system' doesn't reward people that play outside of it.
Thank you for reuploading this! This is the finest documentary made on the topic of nuclear weapons I have ever seen in my entire life. Densely packed with highly researched information and yet still explaining in layman's terms. This video is the gold standard that all others should be judged against.
Ah... I see why the algorithm recommended me this (excellent) video 👍 we're ll on a list, each list is called a cohorte and we can be in more than 1 cohorte
Dude thank you for re-uploading this! I've been wishing I could rewatch it for months and months now, and had no idea why it disappeared from your channel!
The thing about a fizzle is that it can still be devastating. If the expected yield was 500 kt but it only achieved 80 kt that's still more than enough to devastate a good sized portion of a major city. If say the target was an airbase just outside city limits that city is gonna have a bad day regardless. Fizzles matter from a military pov but from a societal pov any nuke that goes above 1 kt in heavily populated areas and above 100 kts in sparsely populated ones is gonna leave a large bodycount. If your goal in a nuke war is societal destruction fizzles aren't that big of a problem.
There's a huge difference between "everyone in the city is dead within a week" and "half the city will die within a year or two, but thousands will die much sooner." There's also the idea that you could have made three (or more) times as many weapons with the same material instead of overbuilding a design that will likely fizzle, why destroy one city when you could instead destroy three, or destroy one and still hold the threat of destroying two more. Yes, a fizzle is still a nuclear explosion which is bad, but it's also enormously wasteful even compared to efficient nuclear weapons.
You haven’t released a video I haven’t gleefully watched at least twice. Your Amazing attention to historical/technical detail and clear, unbiased delivery is appreciated and needed
I’m so happy this is back. By far my favorite video you’ve ever made and the one that got me into your content. Incredibly well made and deserving of all the views it had
Excellent presentation. My father attended the A-bomb tests in Operation Crossroads in 1946. The Able test, an air burst, resulted in little radioactive contamination of the test vessels in the lagoon. The underwater Baker test constrained fission products in water droplets that fell back into the lagoon, resulting in far more contamination of the test vessels and the waters of the lagoon itself. Hulls and seawater systems of vessels that entered the lagoon following the test also became contaminated. This at a time when safety precautions and radiation monitoring procedures were not well established, and some servicemen entering the lagoon following Baker were quite unaware of the risks.
I have downloaded this video and will Inshallah download the other videos later as well. You make excellent, excellent EXCELLENT content. No one has managed to deliver on topics with such professionalism and ease. It is a shame why certain videos get taken down.
And how could this knowledge possibly be a bad thing? There is absolutely no gratuitously violent, obscene, or otherwise inappropriate content in this video, and the subject is relevant to everyone on earth.
Ive watched it thru about 4x. Its truly one of the best basic nuke doc ive ever seen. Outstanding job my friend. As well as being entertaining, accessible and fun. Thanks.
I want to take a moment to express my admiration for your scientific videos, which have a calming, informative effect on me. I am particularly fond of your previous dissections of the atomic theory, which I find highly engaging and informative. I strongly appreciate your voice; that Aussie narration in the video creates a sort of exotic intimacy, which adds to my enjoyment of the content. Additionally, I am grateful for your videos on the Pacific military operations, which were fascinating. I think your style is outstanding with the quality of the videos, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to watch them for free. Thank you for making these videos while naturally making the very most informative pieces about these amazing underlying subjects.
I just love the first moments of this video. Apparently before the first test, the nuclear device almost fell to its own destruction but ‘disaster was averted’.
Minor correction, the little boy bomb contained more than 2 critical masses of U235. The target was sub 1 mass, while the hollow "bullet" was actually closer to 1.5 masses or so, but due to its physical shape (a stack of Uranium rings) it couldn't actually sustain a chain reaction.
Outstanding video! One minor correction. At 29:00 - "KGB" was created in 1954 well after 1949 Soviet nuclear test. Claus Fuchs and co passed information to NKVD and MGB.
It's back!!! I've never been so excited to see a history lesson about nuclear weapons, one which I have already watched at least 6 times. I am waiting for your final Iraq War installment like it's Christmas, btw.
This is a really good video. I don't think I'd seen it before the reupload. You've done a fantastic job of covering pretty much every single point that it's important for an ordinary person to understand about nuclear weapons, to just the level of depth required in each case. If I ever have to recommend one single video to someone who wants to have a working understanding of the entirety of the subject, it'll be this one.
Fantastic to see this back, it is without equal & one of the best most well researched video's on this topic out there & is esential viewing for those into all things nuclear.
This was the video YT recommended to me that ended upnserving as a gateway to the rest of your channel. Rewatching and commenting for the algo. Keep doing your thing
This is by FAR the best and deepest vide about nuclear weapons on UA-cam! I am verry Happy i found you, and i will share your amacing content with my friends!

After making an ultimate guide to nuclear weapons and for chemical weapons, you should make an ultimate guide to biological weapons. Thank for you great work.
Thank you for uploading this again....a few months ago I was trying to find it and couldn't believe it disappeared. IMHO this is the best nuclear documentary out there....and I have seen most of them....from Trinity...and beyond...pun intended :)
This is legit pro content. I'm sorry you had to re-upload, but without that it might not have appeared in my suggestions, and now you have a new sub. Hi from Brisbane.
Thank you for the re upload. I love this and fall asleep regularly to it. I searched and search for this video and thought I was crazy, Or that it was lost forever.
Soviet tanks used high-hydrogen polymers, like polyester, to shield the crew from neutron bombs. This shielding was tested and deemed successful at protecting a large enough percentage of the tanks to expect a mass tank attack to succeed regardless.
thank you for this, as it contains the detailed physical and engineering aspects of these weapons that typically are glossed over by others. Clearly you have put a lot of effort into this.
Guy your narration is straight up golden! Thank you for the great line up of Australian perspective WW2 historical Australian transcripts within the videos! 🇦🇺
I just watched this amazing documentary last night. Despite having read many books about nuclear weapons development, allied historical material, and having worked in the field of radiation physics, without doubt this is one of the finest lectures on the subject I have viewed. The author provides the most coherent, logical and comprehensive description for the reasons nuclear energy is far more potent than conventional chemical explosives, and then moves on to an even more exhaustive, but engaging history of weapons development, focusing on miniaturization, with the pros and cons of “tactical” versus “strategic” devices made quite clear. At the end, he explains why “mutually assured destruction” actually made the world safer for a time. My only comment is that MAD works when adversaries feel they have something to lose. That rationale may not apply to terrorists, whose bestial acts have dominated the 21st century. I urge anyone who wishes to gain greater understanding of this complex subject to watch this video. While I enjoyed the recent movie “Oppenheimer,” I felt it was the treatment of the science behind nuclear weaponry that could have used a bit of “beefing up,” and a video such as this one would have provided a superb resource for such material. Bravo to this content maker!
