"guys i am making this video becouse of the things peaple have been saying about me and my last video and i realized that i am become death, the destroyer of worlds"
I spent an evening with Dr. Edward Teller and he didn't regret it (his role with the Manhattan project and as inventor of the more powerful fusion bomb). He felt it was definitely going to happen and if it wasn't America, it could have been the end of humanity.
Scott Hirsch Ahh, another righteous American, I presume? No matter how you try to justify wmd’s, its always utterly wrong. One evil deed does not cancel out the other.
Exactly, because it might saved millions of lives indirectly by giving countries a damn good reason to not try anything funny but, what if someone actually tries it?
For context, Prince Arjuna's "duty" which "he should do" is to protect the land he administrates from an invading people who include his own kin, peers and mentors. I feel like this passage had already been resonating with Oppenheimer before the famous line would take on new meaning to him.
Oppenheimer thought of this line as he watched the trinity test. When he actually saw that he succeeded in creating a weapon of mass genocide and knew that it was going to be used on innocents, it was his way of convincing himself that it was his duty and that this must happen to ensure peace.
I think a lot of people misinterpret what he is saying. He knew he had to make this bomb before the Nazis and I would even bet if he had to go back in time, he would do it again. However, having the burden to carry out this “duty” to be the one that has to create something so terrifying had to destroy him.
Every time I see this quote being used is in the context of someone drunk on power, triumphant, when in reality, it is said with the most defeated, burdened, sad gaze I've ever seen in a man's eyes
@@duydo7614 Yeah I know. He quotes from the Hindu sacred text, the Bhagavad-Gita. But the context in which he says this quote is important. Its original meaning is different. The scripture is about a warrior prince, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu. Arjuna seeks advice from Krishna as he is torn if he should go into battle against an army comprised of friends and family, to which Krishna responds - transforming into his collosal true from - with what Oppenheimer is quoting here. But Sanskrit scripture is really tricky to translate, and this isn't the only way to translate it. Kirshna teaches Arjuna the philosophy of Dharma, which is the "holy duty". And the word death, can also be translated into "world-destroying time". It's complicated to explain because you have to get into Hindu beliefs of life and death. It's a whole thing. However the meaning Oppenheimer gives to this quote is a lot more literal. This is another quote from him, after the Trinity Test: "In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatements can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin, and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.” It's obvious the burden he was carrying at seeing his creation be used to eradicate innocent lives.
@@phantasmagorics Your comment implies that when people use that quote they are often using it wrong, as they aren't using it as Oppenheimer is. However, i merely pointed out that due to Oppenheimer not being the person/thing that originally came up with the quoted referenced, your comment is not valid.
The best example of “he was so focused on whether he could, he never thought if he should”. Or well, not until it was too late. I respect him for not asking for forgiveness. He probably knew no one could forgive such a thing, it’s literally above any one man’s (or one country’s) pay grade.
Nah bro. Seems like his life is ruined. The atomic bomb was the pinnacle of his achievements. The glory behind it all doesn’t last long, but the guilt behind the killing of hundreds of thousands of people does.
Now everyone want's to be the 2nd mouse not the first. Why? The 2nd mouse get's the cheese. Edit... My thought process on the statement above. Blah blah blah bomb sad blah MICE 🐭 Me: OMG I love mice,🐭🤗🐭 There are so many cool books from my childhood with mice. Samuel Whiskers, Brambily Hedge. And oh yeah that Terry Prachet book. Oh crap what did the mouse in that book say about war and traps...... Then I wrote the comment. To all the ppl reading the original comment now and want to say something after 3 month's. Please resist. There is no hidden meaning. Just the advice a mouse who I believe was called Dangerous Beans. . . Merry Christmas.
Ironic, given that fact that Einstein's research is what lead to the bombs creation. He never expressed any true remorse for this; in fact, he stated on numerous occasions that it was the right thing to do at the time. He was truly evil.
Maybe because Rats do not have nations with millions of innocent people relying on their armed forces to fight foreign enemies for dominance and peace Seriously nothing against Einstein but what a retarded analogy, Nuclear weapons has ushered in the most peaceful time in humanity since major nations can no longer go in direct conflict with each other
He’s not special. If it wasn’t him it would have been someone else. There’s billions of us. 1 year later and a billion idiots have replied and some smart people that read deeper into the ludicrous statement I made. The original statement is about regrets and not about making a bomb or being smart. I can’t lead you anymore by the hand to explain it further. His regrets are no greater than any of ours. Tragic for the people who have died to the use of nuclear weapons. But humans have killed each other much more intimately through time with rocks, swords arrows and our bare hands. There is no scale for regret. This world does not end at the hand of a man.
@@reesespuff939 eventually someone would have invented the atomic bomb, maybe not as fast, maybe not him, but someone else would have invented it. The physics theory for making this possible were there since einstein and they were well known around the world. Any country with enough money, ressources and time could have developed the atomic bomb. Actually the first to split uranium atoms were 3 german chemists in berlin. But there are still technical difficulties to make it a weapon. Einstein heard about this and send a warning letter to president roosevelt. This lead to the manhatten project, because they feared germany might build the bomb before them. Germany was far from building a functioning one, but with more time, they probably would have succeeded in doing so.
After this, Oppenheimer fell into a coma while the two greatest country powers of the moment threatened to destroy each other, and died thinking that he had destroyed the world...
@kamenpower i kinda know wut you mean man...and i agree with ya in this one...nuclear bombs has nothing to do with race indians have em...Americans...north korea...russia or any other country idk...i was just just confused when you said they changed their skin color... Like seriously WUT DA PHUCK ????
He begged the government not to use it after witnessing its incredible destructive power. The government branded him a communist and destroyed his reputation.
+arnold jayeola Who says they're never going to use it again. Yea. The human race will probably never use it against themselves, but what about in the future? Whose to say we won't use it on another civilization? We are "the destroyer(s) of worlds," after all.
+Kristofer Loy there will always be a proverbial boon to any civilization. I like to think that the looming threat of something happening like nuclear war which is unlikely ,for one no one wants to nuke anyone because as soon as one is set off everyone else will launch counter measures to intercept the bogie and also send all the shit theyve been stocking since the cold war then the whole world blows up. Also the scientific knowledge gained from learning how to split atoms was pretty paramount but still nothing compared to the threats that lie In future tech. just look at any sci-fi content it sounds ridiculous but look at history. tons of sci-fi things have become real life. I don't doubt one bit that a world breaking weapon either already exist somewhere else or will exist in the future. anything is possible man.
+Guts The Berserker Scientists never have a say how their work is used. I can develop a novel way of harnessing the energy of the sun for electric power, but the government/corporate sponsors will make a heat ray out of it. How is that my fault??
+Guts The Berserker "After that thing went off, after it was sure america could wipe out a city with a single bomb, a scientist turned to father and said 'science has now known sin'. And you know what father said? Father said 'what is sin?'" -Kurt Vanguard
His hauntingly lifeless gaze and voice really speak volumes about the crushing weight of guilt he had to endure until his eventual death and even in death he couldn't be at peace... He died thinking that he destroyed the world
He was a generally a happy guy, too. He and another dude that worked in the Manhattan Project were like polar opposites. Rob was super happy and greeted everyone with a smile while the other dude was like ‘smile and die’
I dont think he realized how many lives he saved. Without him the coldwar would have been ww3 and without him what we think of war would have been so brutal.
I really wished they had put this clip in the Oppenheimer movie , before the credits so it would really sink in with the audience the true gravity of his words.
@@sayandebhalder1618Spoiler: It only twice. The first time happened when he had sex with Jean Tatlock and because she asked about a book with Sanskreet letter and the second time happened after the bomb testing.
@@dwaynethemineraljohnson412 If you think everyone goes into the biggest movie of the year with full knowledge of the full Oppenheimer story then you're naive as shit. I'd guess at most 5% know it well.
When you see the quote “I am become death” it sounds like someone is becoming a master But when you HEAR the actual man saying it you can see how regretful and ashamed he is for creating something powerful
Robert Oppenheimer was a polymath, with interests and knowledge in various fields, including literature, art, philosophy, and Eastern mysticism, which contributed to his unique approach to problem-solving in physics.
A guy that literally created a weapon that rivals the hand of Big Bird and burns hotter than the surface of the sun has a better apology video than most people in only 53 seconds.
You all saying he's lifeless, but you aren't seeing his lip tremble. That man is on the verge of crying. His creation was perverted to the most destructive possible outcome.
Honestly, the fact that he didn't just commit suicide shows that he has some of the toughest guts in the world. I imagine being responsible for the death of hundreds of thousands of lives wouldn't exactly help your mental health.
Humans have enough firepower to literally destroy the world about 10 times over. If we wanted to, we could legitimately destroy jupiter. Edit: I have now decided to totally pretend that this was hyperbole and sarcasm. Sure. Yep. combined
Canyoneer there’s no possible way to destroy Jupiter with our power. Do you even realize how big Jupiter is? Not to mention the guy’s original comment is retarded to begin with.
Worst actor ever. It’s clear he’s reading an idiot sheet or some sort of teleprompter, you can see his eyes darting left and right track the text. Also the script is incredibly lame. “Some people laughed, some people cried”. So you have a joyous and melancholic reaction to the same event. Was the room populated by a group of bipolar disorder patients? It sounds like something made up for a bad 1950’s cheeseball TV melodrama. I don’t believe the reaction went down at all like this, and this “recounting” of events was made up after the event.
What pains me is that this man died in the height of the cold war. He fell into a coma seeing how two nations were threatening each other and the world with his creation and very well believed that war would break out. He died believing that he had ended the world.
Give it time and he may still have done so. Until Humans colonize another world, we dont have a snowball's chance in hell at surviving on earth long term. Think of how many people in the world believe fervently in an afterlife. Who see this world as a meaningless test of faith. Give men like that the A bomb and see what happens.
@fox tun he was the main scientist in the manhattan project, who created the first atomic bombs. Latter on, in the cold war, killing a bunch of people.
the atom bomb is just a beginning on atomic fissions, back at that age, countries deliver bombs using strategic bomber, and nuclear bombs were first tested on rocket supported weapons, if humans invest more on similar projects, we can make greater weapons of mass destruction
Vishnu took on his armed form(destroyer of worlds) because of an unjust war wich was started against arjunas kingdom in wich the king didnt want to participate because it was his own family wich started the war against his kingdom, and by vishnu (the caretaker of the universe or balancer of good and evil in hindu teachings) becoming the destroyer of worlds he showed arjuna that it is nessary to participate in fighting so his innocent people wont get murderd anymore. So he clearly knew that what he did was absolutley nessesary by reffering to that line from the gita, even tough knowing that the device he build with his own hands killed so many people was probably still haunting him to some extent he knew it was a good thing to save more lives in the long run. Thats ofcourse not adjusted for the insane war hungry and spiritually def times we live in now but i hope you get the point to what he was actually reffering to😅
"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds" is what this speech is remembered for, but I think "A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent" is the most chilling part of it. Poor man. I hope he found peace.
@@SlizMaster Some people like to watch the world burn. Also laughter is caused by surprise a joke is always funniest the first time and being shocked can cause laughter. Imagine working on such advance science in a critical time period and actually solving it I would be dumbfounded.
@@SlizMaster there’s often a weird reaction of laughter where there is no reaction, people are so conflicted with there emotions that they don’t know what to do so their body just tells them to laugh. Not that anything was funny about it but because it was so unfunny they didn’t know what to do.
"A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent" Theres something about that quote, including the delivery, thats really chilling. Haunting stuff.
the ones that laughed saw an end to madness the ones that cried saw the end of life the ones that were silent saw what should have never been recreated
@@_esyel9121 That's like me saying cars did more good than harm, and you replying, tell that to the families of car crash victims. No one's denying it resulted in deaths.
Nobody could have foreseen his weapon of mass destruction which could potentially put the planet in danger would in fact turn out to be a weapon of mass destruction putting the planet in a constant state of danger
Oppenheimer after going through all of the processes of creating a weapon of mass destruction when it turns out the weapon might potentially be dangerous: :o
@@erikeriks he always knew it would be dangerous and wasn't surprised. But he had to finish or the enemies would because they were planning to. So he finished out of pressure but never would have wanted that if he could have chosen
@@benlhyenethehyena9947 except he could have chosen and he chose poorly. On top of that although it may be true Oppenheimer got caught up in a political mess of an arms race we should still not be playing the blame game here to justify the creation of the nuclear weapons of all things. Yes, it was necessary to build a counter weapon to Germany's plans in order to stop the Nazi's from building up their own nuclear arsenal, but in the end it's fighting fire with fire and both sides of the same coin. There is no justification, what the US has done in 1945 to both Japan and the world will always remain a deed of pure evil.
Am i the only one that whem he says "I have become death, destroyer of worlds." That gets chills. That line is such a terrifying and true line due to hiw true it is.
@@lenarratorsocietyofsuperio2731 Not who you were responding to, but the song they're talking about is an interlude (unless I'm just being r/wooooshed here)
He realized that it the nuclear bomb would likely be used in WW2, but I think that his anxiety came from the realization that one day all major countries would possess nuclear weapons.
Well... I got bad news for you: thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/current-time/ As of the 23rd of January 2020 (i.e., before COVID-19 as well as before the end of a bunch of treaties.), The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists' Doomsday Clock has 1⅔ minutes (100 seconds) left to the midnight of human obliteration by annihilation via climate change and/or nuclear war. Last time it got as close to midnight? Never.
That's the most lifeless, joyless, hopeless pair of eyes that ever existed. The eyes of a man that's been broken from the inside. He really felt all the weight of his deeds towards mankind.
@@Gnadab Germany during Nazi occupation was working on a similar Atomic bomb. The U.S. pushed for this bomb and this man stepped up to meet the demands of the U.S. military to compete and create deterrence with Germany. If he didn't do it, someone else will and it keeps going. It was inevitable.
@@FREEDOM_OR_DEATH_ You don't think Hitler would've tried to rule the world? He wanted to and he was looking at every way that could be possible, if he started nuking before the US the world would look very different cause he would've dropped more than 2
Oppenheimer wanted to make a weapon so devastating that war would become an impossibility. But he never could have imagined where humanity’s stubbornness and self destructive nature would lead
"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another." - J. Robert Oppenheimer
I read a book on the Manhattan Project once... once the scientists who helped create the bomb felt joy, relief, and horror when the bomb worked. The book said (not word-to-word): the men cheered, but realization dawned upon them in horror that they used their love for physics to create the worst weapon humankind has ever known." Oppenheimer perfectly described that feeling of horror.
Mankind has a way of creating terrible things out of good intentions. We don't get to feel regret or feel sorry for ourselves though, as we caused it. I do feel for the other creatures of this planet, that have coexisted relatively peacefully for millions of years, only to meet man, the great destroyer.
The look on his face. The pain in his eyes. It’s haunting. I can’t imagine the feeling of being the man who built the weapon that could take lives by the millions in a nanosecond. It’s like his soul was ripped out.
Oh poor him 😭 …no I’m joking. He knew what he was working on. Was he being forced to work on it at gunpoint? No, he wasn’t. In fact he worked on it very willingly. I spit on anyone who works on weapons of murder, let alone him. He was working on a weapon of mass-destruction and he knew it very well. There is no conceivable way that he can be absolved of blame, I even did some research on him seeing this comment section filled with sympathisers and yeah, it’s on him. If it was me, I would sooner die than be responsible for so many deaths. He wasn’t even forced to work on it at all. Edit: the amount of replies from people with no empathy or people who don’t know what they’re talking about is hilarious. Keep talking guys, I’m enjoying reading these.

@@lovepeace9727 he rejected the idea of nuclear gunboat diplomacy, one of his quotes is "The purposes of this country in the field of foreign policy", he wrote, "cannot in any real or enduring way be achieved by coercion". Which I partially disagree with, but you can see, that he either was, or turned pacifist after Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings.
@@ximono They began producing the atomic bomb because they saw that Hitler showed no signs of stopping his warpath across Europe, and thought it prudent to have a weapon capable of stopping him. Oppenheimer, as a Jew, was probably pretty unnerved seeing as his people were being genocided at the time. What’s more, any effort to be made to stop Hitler developing his *own* nuclear weaponry was a prime objective, as you typically don’t want genocidal dictators to have access to weapons of mass destruction. It wasn’t until Hitler unalived himself, and they had already sunk billions of dollars into development, that Truman ultimately decided to drop the bombs on Japan. But it’s not like he had the capacity to say “hey guys Hitler is dead we can stop production now” and the US government was going to go “oh okay!”
That's all true. I understand the justifications for beating ze nazis to it. And I suppose it would most likely be achieved somewhere sometime anyway. But he chose to take it upon him, and to live with it for the rest of his life. I think most people would have said no to that prospect. And yes, I think Truman's actual use of the bomb was more morally problematic.
@@Duskets Another reason that a lot of people don't think about is that Japan litterally massacred entire towns of people and killed around 30 Million civilians they had entire units of scientists dedicated to torturting babies and mothers they tested plagues on living humans so much they were ready to drop a plague bomb on the coastal cities of the united states people somehow know every war crime the nazi's commited but not the millions more the japanese killed and tortured I would have rather been a jew in a concentration camp than a chinese civilian living in Unit 731 which if you didn't know is the reason we know about 40% of the things about our bodies such as how much water is in our bodies or how cold can a person get before they die which they all got from torturing people (they were never charged by the US btw they actually covered up the Japanese war crimes so the USSR wouldn't get the research and then let the scientists walk free)
The line 'few laughed, few cried, the majority stayed silent' really is such a deep sentiment to put forward on the subject Some idealists will cheer, some realists will cry, the rest of the world will stay silent.
Actually this is reference to "draupadi vastraharana" meaning disrobing draupadi. Which is the reason for the greatest war in mahabharat. Context: when draupadi(pandavas wife) was being disrobed or stripped, the people striping her were laughing and the pandavas side were crying/sad. But most of the people in that court which were powerfull, influential and intellectual were all remained silent. If they really really wanted they could have stopped it.
@@Bea-hp3se They felt good about finishing their work so they cheered. Their idea had been made a reality without consideration for the repercussions and they were ecstatic. I think they did.
@@yash1140 , it was in the middle of the war. Arjuna was in a significant moral/ existential crisis as he was about to fight his cousins in the war. His chariot rider was Lord Vishnu in his Lord Krishna Avatar. And when he had this existential crisis, Krishna slowed/paused time and showed Arjuna his "Virata" form i.e the entire Collective consciousness or you can say the Universe.

“Now I have become death, the destroyer of worlds” is a line from the Bhagavad Gita, a Hindu scripture written in Sanskrit. In the scripture, Vishnu says the line to impress a prince to do his duty, taking on his multiarmed form. The line is in the 32nd verse of the 11th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita.
For those who are watching this confused, he basically was the director of the Manhattan project. Which was where the atomic bombs for Nagasaki and Hiroshima were originally thought of and later manufactured.

Incredibly British The project for atomic bombs was almost ready, the plant for research and then production (that didn't happen) was mainly in Norway, but allies stole everything when they invaded Norway that was then occupied by German army. They destroyed the plant and stole the projects and kidnapped the scientists, obviously there weren't just german scientists working for the NS movement, there were from places including Hungary, Czechslovakia, and there were also Russians that were fighting for Germany. I know that cause my grandfather served in a Swedish SS division, in baltic missions and winter war in Finland against bolsheviks that tried to invade Finland, but he also fought against allies in Norway's coast

@Chris Russellthese scriptures sometimes make me speechless , just how something that was written thousands of years ago still tells us so much about today's world so accurately . Wow just wow.
Tbh he wasnt the originator of the bomb. It were the refugee scientists from Europe that had the foresight and saw the consequences of splitting the atom. And they also brought the theory and were instrumental in finding out the way to do it before the Nazi's could. Oppenheimer was a scientist but he wasnt a keyplayer in that aspect of making the bomb. He was the link between the scientists and the brass/politics being able to talk to both... overseeing the project, getting resources, manpower. Etc He did feel some type of way about the bomb though...having doubts. I think he lost his position also cause his criticism..But that bomb would've been build without him also. Sooner or later.
Man look at his eyes, like they look souless and lifeless, fully emotionless stare, maybe because of the regret he has after he made the first atomic bomb

@Extravagant Baboon I could be wrong, but isn't China having problems with inflation or something? One of my past history teachers said that China's economy was like a balloon and that sooner or later, it was going to pop. Plus, they've got serious pollution problems over there.
Extravagant Baboon China's economy is imploding, you must live under a rock. Pollution is significant for two reasons: 1 It's literally killing them 2 Assuming they keep their word about combatting global warming they would need to reduce the amount of pollution they produce by such an extreme amount that doing so would reduce them to less than a 3rd world country.
@Extravagant Baboon China is not a threat. Not nearly capitalistic enough to make efficient use of their resources. If china where to adopt a half decent economic model then they would truly be a threat. But as of now, their economy is a bubble at best.
Well one of the google engineers did say a weight was lifted off his soul once he leaked the censorship tactics of the youtube algorithm. It must have been killing him inside
Not only did he feel regret for what had just happened, he knew with a morbid certainty that we would never leave the grasp of atomic weapons from that point

"We knew the world would not the the same....Few people Laughed, Few people Cried, Most people were Silent." I came back after watching Oppenheimer, It was truly iconic
A direct reference to the bombing at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he had just realised his creations were used on the Japanese by the time he spoke the quotes
Imagine spending your life creating something so amazingly powerful, the enthusiasm of venturing to a place no one has seen, the pride of making something no one else has only to see the results and feel nothing but dread, this man is the living embodiment of "I won, But at what cost"
Man legit invented not only a city level weapon, but invented the first apology video and did it better than anyone to come after it.

For context, Prince Arjuna's "duty" which "he should do" is to protect the land he administrates from an invading people who include his own kin, peers and mentors. I feel like this passage had already been resonating with Oppenheimer before the famous line would take on new meaning to him.
Oppenheimer thought of this line as he watched the trinity test. When he actually saw that he succeeded in creating a weapon of mass genocide and knew that it was going to be used on innocents, it was his way of convincing himself that it was his duty and that this must happen to ensure peace.
I think a lot of people misinterpret what he is saying. He knew he had to make this bomb before the Nazis and I would even bet if he had to go back in time, he would do it again. However, having the burden to carry out this “duty” to be the one that has to create something so terrifying had to destroy him.
Since Arjuna was warrior (Kṣatriya), his duty was to fight, whether on the offensive or defensive. This is what Krishna told him.
Every time I see this quote being used is in the context of someone drunk on power, triumphant, when in reality, it is said with the most defeated, burdened, sad gaze I've ever seen in a man's eyes
Well said!!!
Good point
The quote didn't come from this man though. He's quoting from a book
@@duydo7614 Yeah I know. He quotes from the Hindu sacred text, the Bhagavad-Gita. But the context in which he says this quote is important. Its original meaning is different. The scripture is about a warrior prince, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu. Arjuna seeks advice from Krishna as he is torn if he should go into battle against an army comprised of friends and family, to which Krishna responds - transforming into his collosal true from - with what Oppenheimer is quoting here. But Sanskrit scripture is really tricky to translate, and this isn't the only way to translate it. Kirshna teaches Arjuna the philosophy of Dharma, which is the "holy duty". And the word death, can also be translated into "world-destroying time". It's complicated to explain because you have to get into Hindu beliefs of life and death. It's a whole thing. However the meaning Oppenheimer gives to this quote is a lot more literal. This is another quote from him, after the Trinity Test:
"In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatements can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin, and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.”
It's obvious the burden he was carrying at seeing his creation be used to eradicate innocent lives.
@@phantasmagorics Your comment implies that when people use that quote they are often using it wrong, as they aren't using it as Oppenheimer is. However, i merely pointed out that due to Oppenheimer not being the person/thing that originally came up with the quoted referenced, your comment is not valid.

Ironic, given that fact that Einstein's research is what lead to the bombs creation. He never expressed any true remorse for this; in fact, he stated on numerous occasions that it was the right thing to do at the time. He was truly evil.
Einstein said this ? He was so smart why did he develop the Atomic Bomb
Maybe because Rats do not have nations with millions of innocent people relying on their armed forces to fight foreign enemies for dominance and peace
Seriously nothing against Einstein but what a retarded analogy, Nuclear weapons has ushered in the most peaceful time in humanity since major nations can no longer go in direct conflict with each other
If you ever have regrets, just imagine being this man.
He’s not special. If it wasn’t him it would have been someone else. There’s billions of us.
1 year later and a billion idiots have replied and some smart people that read deeper into the ludicrous statement I made. The original statement is about regrets and not about making a bomb or being smart. I can’t lead you anymore by the hand to explain it further. His regrets are no greater than any of ours. Tragic for the people who have died to the use of nuclear weapons. But humans have killed each other much more intimately through time with rocks, swords arrows and our bare hands. There is no scale for regret. This world does not end at the hand of a man.
@@Wild-Eye what
Or the creator of Crazy Frog
@@reesespuff939 eventually someone would have invented the atomic bomb, maybe not as fast, maybe not him, but someone else would have invented it. The physics theory for making this possible were there since einstein and they were well known around the world. Any country with enough money, ressources and time could have developed the atomic bomb. Actually the first to split uranium atoms were 3 german chemists in berlin. But there are still technical difficulties to make it a weapon. Einstein heard about this and send a warning letter to president roosevelt. This lead to the manhatten project, because they feared germany might build the bomb before them. Germany was far from building a functioning one, but with more time, they probably would have succeeded in doing so.

What pains me is that this man died in the height of the cold war. He fell into a coma seeing how two nations were threatening each other and the world with his creation and very well believed that war would break out. He died believing that he had ended the world.

@@ximonothey weren't the only ones. Werner Heisenberg, the father of quantum mechanics, was working on the same thing for the Germans.
@@ximono They began producing the atomic bomb because they saw that Hitler showed no signs of stopping his warpath across Europe, and thought it prudent to have a weapon capable of stopping him. Oppenheimer, as a Jew, was probably pretty unnerved seeing as his people were being genocided at the time. What’s more, any effort to be made to stop Hitler developing his *own* nuclear weaponry was a prime objective, as you typically don’t want genocidal dictators to have access to weapons of mass destruction.
It wasn’t until Hitler unalived himself, and they had already sunk billions of dollars into development, that Truman ultimately decided to drop the bombs on Japan. But it’s not like he had the capacity to say “hey guys Hitler is dead we can stop production now” and the US government was going to go “oh okay!”
That's all true. I understand the justifications for beating ze nazis to it. And I suppose it would most likely be achieved somewhere sometime anyway. But he chose to take it upon him, and to live with it for the rest of his life. I think most people would have said no to that prospect.
And yes, I think Truman's actual use of the bomb was more morally problematic.
@@Duskets Another reason that a lot of people don't think about is that Japan litterally massacred entire towns of people and killed around 30 Million civilians they had entire units of scientists dedicated to torturting babies and mothers they tested plagues on living humans so much they were ready to drop a plague bomb on the coastal cities of the united states people somehow know every war crime the nazi's commited but not the millions more the japanese killed and tortured I would have rather been a jew in a concentration camp than a chinese civilian living in Unit 731 which if you didn't know is the reason we know about 40% of the things about our bodies such as how much water is in our bodies or how cold can a person get before they die which they all got from torturing people (they were never charged by the US btw they actually covered up the Japanese war crimes so the USSR wouldn't get the research and then let the scientists walk free)

You got it twisted the real ones stayed silent* the rest cried
Actually this is reference to "draupadi vastraharana" meaning disrobing draupadi. Which is the reason for the greatest war in mahabharat.
Context: when draupadi(pandavas wife) was being disrobed or stripped, the people striping her were laughing and the pandavas side were crying/sad. But most of the people in that court which were powerfull, influential and intellectual were all remained silent. If they really really wanted they could have stopped it.

Both technologies stolen from Germans and developed by german scientists kidnapped by fucking allies. Also space travel
Incredibly British The project for atomic bombs was almost ready, the plant for research and then production (that didn't happen) was mainly in Norway, but allies stole everything when they invaded Norway that was then occupied by German army. They destroyed the plant and stole the projects and kidnapped the scientists, obviously there weren't just german scientists working for the NS movement, there were from places including Hungary, Czechslovakia, and there were also Russians that were fighting for Germany. I know that cause my grandfather served in a Swedish SS division, in baltic missions and winter war in Finland against bolsheviks that tried to invade Finland, but he also fought against allies in Norway's coast

He ended a war.
Sabres50 _ He did the right thing, sometimes destruction is the answer. Although I don’t blame him for regretting what he did.
Tbh he wasnt the originator of the bomb. It were the refugee scientists from Europe that had the foresight and saw the consequences of splitting the atom. And they also brought the theory and were instrumental in finding out the way to do it before the Nazi's could.
Oppenheimer was a scientist but he wasnt a keyplayer in that aspect of making the bomb. He was the link between the scientists and the brass/politics being able to talk to both... overseeing the project, getting resources, manpower. Etc
He did feel some type of way about the bomb though...having doubts. I think he lost his position also cause his criticism..But that bomb would've been build without him also. Sooner or later.
Man look at his eyes, like they look souless and lifeless, fully emotionless stare, maybe because of the regret he has after he made the first atomic bomb
You can hear the agony and sorrow in his voice. A pain that no other man may fully understand.

Extravagant Baboon China's economy is imploding, you must live under a rock. Pollution is significant for two reasons: 1 It's literally killing them 2 Assuming they keep their word about combatting global warming they would need to reduce the amount of pollution they produce by such an extreme amount that doing so would reduce them to less than a 3rd world country.
@Extravagant Baboon China is not a threat. Not nearly capitalistic enough to make efficient use of their resources. If china where to adopt a half decent economic model then they would truly be a threat. But as of now, their economy is a bubble at best.
