Fact for those interested. The Tsar bomba is already pretty much at the border of how much yield a nuke can have in terms of damage caused per kiloton of power. Above it , you get decremental results , because most of the energy from the explosion gets sent into space and wasted. So if you think a 500 megaton explosion, 10 times the tsar bomb , would have 10 times the destructive radius, that’s not how it works. The actual destructive radius on earth would be maybe a few more kilometers while 90% of the energy would get blasted into space. Detonated at enough height the fireball would be huge and have a huge radius where it burns people and buildings. Dropping 10 tsar bombs would have a way way larger impact than 1 single 500megaton bomb. But even this is ridiculous and unnecessary, the last several megaton USA bomb , the B53 with 9 megatons of power was disassembled in 2011 and now the b83 is the largest one active with 1.2 megaton. Accuracy is much more dangerous and useful than sheer explosion size. People worry about how bigger bombs can be now days. They are much smaller. Modern dangers are more the sheer accuracy or speed. Like Chinese supersonic missiles that are impossible to stop.
@@tninkhtr actually they are absolutely stoppable. They have been for decades. If you shoot down a nuke it won’t explode, they only explode if the activation system is detonated and it’s working correctly, otherwise it’s only danger is the radioactive waste they leave, but no explosion. The issue with Nukes was never stopping them. It was that if they launch 1,000 of them and a single one slips, the tragedy is still massive. That’s why Chinese hypersonic missiles. Those can’t be stopped.
The Tsar Bomba was the point at which everyone said "Okay, lets not. We'll certainly send mankind back to the Stone Age if we continue with this route, if not wipe ourselves out completely"
@ArlxGaming my point is those 2 nuclear bombs were the last time they were used in anger, the tzar bomb is just another threat, just as those made before were.
Fun fact: the Tsar bomb is actually a Hydrogen Bomb and the Russian scientists had to test the bomb on 50 megatons instead of 100 so they didn’t kill anyone

You mixed that up with the trinity test, at the time of the tsar bomba no one was scared that it might incinerate the whole earth. What you mean was that the head researcher was scared that it might change the orbit of the earth around the sun, but obviously that was completely unfounded. Even if you detonated all of pure uranium on earth on one spot, it wouldn’t change the orbit one bit. And also, that’s not how scaling works, the explosion wouldn’t exactly have doubled, the bigger the explosion gets, the more you need to put in to get it to double. 100MT wouldn’t have been as much bigger as you think, of course bigger, but still within the same league
The Tsar Bomba was equally impressive and utterly terrifying. The facts about it are cool. The story of the bomber crew who dropped it is mind blowing. It's disheartening that you have to tell people it was never used in combat. Of the massive amount of nuclear bombs built on earth, only 2 were used in combat... in 1945.
fun fact the developer of the Tsar bomba went against his orders. so he cut the yield down. because he was scared that the original yield would be way to dangerous
no, the yield of 100 megatons would have been useless and not interesting for testing since the energy would've breached the atmosphere, rendering the explosive way weaker edit: the wording was a little bit off on my comment, I apologize since English isn't my main language, what I meant was that the 100 megaton explosion would have been barely stronger than the 50 megatons one since the energy would have breached the atmosphere, that is a fact

To avoid the massive fallout the regular tamper was replaced, cutting the force by HALF. The blast wave circled the earth several times and reached the Earth's crust.
I am not even kidding I was drinking juice and then saw this. Cracked up to this joke but somehow managed to keep the stuffs inside my mouth 💀 good one
Fun Fact: the Tsar Bomba is 1,573 times more powerful than the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs combined. And it was 10 times more powerful than ALL the explosives used in WWII.
nothing since it has a 2 megaton warhead and in any case even if it had 100, water is the best thing to contain the explosions and in any case to make the tsunami more powerful that of 2004 in Indonesia to create waves 10 meters high they have been calculated that it would have taken not 10 not 100, but rather 56,000 megatons very far from 2 megatons of the poseidon torpedo which needs to be seen if it exists, and if it exists in what state it is seen that even the burevestnik the nuclear propelled cruise missile flew only for a few km and nuclear propulsion didn't even happen, indeed in another test it exploded killing 6 famous Russian scientists in the field of nuclear weapons in Archangel oblast.

How insane is it that some guy can think: “I’m so mad at you that I am going to destroy everything over there knowing that you are going to destroy everything over here. Mankind must stop these lunatics before they hurt someone.
That bomb at half of it's power can destroy a Tu-95 dozen of kilometers away, create a mushroom cloud 7 times higher than Mt.Everest. At it's full power it can destroy 90% Tokyo - biggest city in the world in 1 go, give ozon layer a hole big enough to give anything under that hole a free skin cancer. Tell me, what kind of bomb can be more powerful than this?
20 KT leveled most of Hiroshima. After that, it goes up by the 2/3rds power of the blast. 150 MT would have leveled most of the Island of Great Britain. Read Herman Kahn’s Thinking The Unthinkable for dispassionate discussion.
We should’ve stopped making nukes more powerful after the atom bomb. We should let the fat man and little boy be the only weapons of mass destruction ever used in warfare.
Big bombs are less destructive than many smaller bombs, though, so the big ones only make sense to split asteroids the size of Texas. There is a reason that the largest devices in the USA arsenal are about one half megaton or less, especially in the good old days of nine thousand warheads or more.
Imagine how the world would be different now if everyone spent the money on helping people and building homes and living in peace instead of building weapons that can end mankind
What's even more daunting is that because of concerns about the literal fallout that could have resulted, the Soviets stopped at 50 Megatons instead of the upper limit of 100.
Nah, it's too inconvenient to use in real combat. They claim to have Poseidon torpedos now armed with 200 MT nukes, far stronger than this one. A 'Tsunami' from the blue, if you may.
Could you imagine if Strategic Air Command actually said to the American military industrial complex that they wanted their version of it? It would have made the TB look like a minor firecracker.
It was not a warning but a technological competition. The West (USA)succeeded before the Soviets in making a thermonuclear bomb, but it was not a bomb but a device the size of a building. The Soviets were the first to make a practical device that an airplane can carry and throw.
Tsar was designed because Soviet missiles lacked accuracy compared to US warheads. So if the Soviets couldn't compete in accuracy, it could make up for it with yield size.
@@TheJTcreate missiles? warheads? Do you even know what this is about? During the 50's and 60's there were no nuclear warheads or nuclear missiles. First high-yield thermonuclear weapon test were conducted by the USA and it name was Castle Bravo. It was a huge device mounted on ground and activated remotely. In order for the Soviets to show that they are not late with technology, they made an even stronger bomb, but now more compact and portable. Just nuclear race.

At first, the Soviet Union wanted to increase its power to 100,000 megatons, but it ended up being a 50,000 megaton bomb.
It was meant to be 150 MEGA tons, not kilo...
Ended up being between 60 and 70 MT actually.

It's a megaton three layer hydrogen bomb. Fission fusion in technical term
Tsar bombs also known as the most powerful weapon ever human made on earth
Fun Fact: the Tsar Bomba is 1,573 times more powerful than the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs combined. And it was 10 times more powerful than ALL the explosives used in WWII.
Now imagine what Russian nuclear torpedo can do.
nothing since it has a 2 megaton warhead and in any case even if it had 100, water is the best thing to contain the explosions and in any case to make the tsunami more powerful that of 2004 in Indonesia to create waves 10 meters high they have been calculated that it would have taken not 10 not 100, but rather 56,000 megatons very far from 2 megatons of the poseidon torpedo which needs to be seen if it exists, and if it exists in what state it is seen that even the burevestnik the nuclear propelled cruise missile flew only for a few km and nuclear propulsion didn't even happen, indeed in another test it exploded killing 6 famous Russian scientists in the field of nuclear weapons in Archangel oblast.
it's simple math and physics poseidon can't create tsunami it doesn't have the power.

And now world has numerous advanced thermonuclear bombs
That bomb at half of it's power can destroy a Tu-95 dozen of kilometers away, create a mushroom cloud 7 times higher than Mt.Everest. At it's full power it can destroy 90% Tokyo - biggest city in the world in 1 go, give ozon layer a hole big enough to give anything under that hole a free skin cancer. Tell me, what kind of bomb can be more powerful than this?
100 MT levels an entire city. 1 MT levels an entire neighborhood. 10 KT levels an entire residential area. Nukes are bad.
20 KT leveled most of Hiroshima. After that, it goes up by the 2/3rds power of the blast. 150 MT would have leveled most of the Island of Great Britain. Read Herman Kahn’s Thinking The Unthinkable for dispassionate discussion.

We had the most amazing sunsets in the 60s!
The problem with H-bombs is that they are too easy to build big.
We should’ve stopped making nukes more powerful after the atom bomb. We should let the fat man and little boy be the only weapons of mass destruction ever used in warfare.
Big bombs are less destructive than many smaller bombs, though, so the big ones only make sense to split asteroids the size of Texas. There is a reason that the largest devices in the USA arsenal are about one half megaton or less, especially in the good old days of nine thousand warheads or more.
I left it play repeatedly while reading comments.
Lol, same here
Imagine how the world would be different now if everyone spent the money on helping people and building homes and living in peace instead of building weapons that can end mankind
It would be the same because the majority of people don't help themselves in the first place. The world would be worse.
What's even more daunting is that because of concerns about the literal fallout that could have resulted, the Soviets stopped at 50 Megatons instead of the upper limit of 100.
Mutually assured annihilation ! Need I say more ?
Allegedly it was designed to be 100 megatons but was dialled back

Nah, it's too inconvenient to use in real combat. They claim to have Poseidon torpedos now armed with 200 MT nukes, far stronger than this one. A 'Tsunami' from the blue, if you may.
Could you imagine if Strategic Air Command actually said to the American military industrial complex that they wanted their version of it? It would have made the TB look like a minor firecracker.
Russians create more powerful weapons than Americans
It was not a warning but a technological competition. The West (USA)succeeded before the Soviets in making a thermonuclear bomb, but it was not a bomb but a device the size of a building. The Soviets were the first to make a practical device that an airplane can carry and throw.
8 meters is not the site of a building
Tsar was designed because Soviet missiles lacked accuracy compared to US warheads. So if the Soviets couldn't compete in accuracy, it could make up for it with yield size.
@@TheJTcreate missiles? warheads? Do you even know what this is about? During the 50's and 60's there were no nuclear warheads or nuclear missiles.
First high-yield thermonuclear weapon test were conducted by the USA and it name was Castle Bravo. It was a huge device mounted on ground and activated remotely. In order for the Soviets to show that they are not late with technology, they made an even stronger bomb, but now more compact and portable.
Just nuclear race.
A lot of this should be prepared for NATO in case of world war.

I think it may be quite possible you have a parasitic worm in your brain, no human could be that stupid otherwise.
The power of the bomb was cut in half because they feared it would reach into space
No they feared it would destroy the earth

Which means "leader". We could've "tsared" them back, but what's the point??

I love how the video does not explain how the bomb works at all.

Well, now it is used on the poseidon torpedo, but with its real yield (100Mt) not the one of the test (~53Mt).
