6.8 Earthquake Simulated by Underground Nuclear Explosion!

w1ndex says...

This is a 5 megaton bomb, which is a baby compared to some of the other bombs that have been tested. Rather scary.

If You Detonated a Nuclear Bomb In The Marianas Trench

Lambozo says...

You all are right to call BS on this video. Its trash.

The earthquake that caused the 2004 tsunami in Sumatra released a total of 9 600 000 megatons of energy....that's a bit more than 50 megatons. I don't know though, I'm not a math major.

This earthquake didn't make new continents, nor did it cause an ice age by pushing earth a significant distance away from the sun. So I'm going to guess that neither would this bomb.

The portion of the 2004 earthquake's total energy that was released on the surface of the sea floor was only 26 megatons and it was released a lot less quickly than the detonation of the Tsar bomba, I'll give ya that.

Probably generate a Tsunami, but not a large one. Large natural tsunamis, like those in 2004 and 2011, are generated by very sudden movement of the ocean floor over a large area; the 2004 Sumatra quake lifted the sea floor several meters, very rapidly, along a 1600 km long section of fault, displacing a total of 30 cubic kilometers of water. Google "what does a cubic kilometer look like". Its a lot of water.

Not sure if the bomb can move that much water at a single site; I don't think it replicates the right "mechanics" of large scale tsunami generation....

Declassified Nuclear Test

Mookal says...

Incredible that those yields are paltry in comparison to modern capabilities. Just one example being the US fleet of ~15 Ohio class subs, each capable of carrying 20 Trident missiles, with up to 14 475kt warheads per.

And that's just part of the mobile capability, let alone ICBM's over the megaton range.

I'm calling my Vault-tec rep right now.

43 kilotons. the largest of the teapot tests. Ahh it was a series at the nevada test site during the 50s. LIttle boy being 13 kt and fat man being only 21 kt.

DEATH GRIPS - HUSTLE BONES

Give a fuck whatchya heard
Yeah fuck whatchya heard

Hustle bones comin' out my mouth [repeat]

That hot lic a shot
Never not strapped
Wit a Glock tongue cocked
Run it back
That knock a cop off unconscious Molotov
Cocktailin' sound bomb a snitch
Flat line of chalk drawn round the clock
Too many marks dropped ta count the stiffs

Stuck on the fence
How does it feel
It don't make sense
Nothing is

That rip you a new one trick I'm the true one,
And only never know me never will no son
Leave ya laid out ta fade out
Show a cunt the door
Hit and run
Hustle bones comin' out my mouth

Hustle bones comin' out my mouth [repeat]

That can't wait ta blast
Blood stained knuckle brass gives a fuck sick wit it flav on
That ex con
Hard to da bone
Darkness from the zone
Mastered and pushed far beyond

Eons beyond the line never crossed,
By dem punks livin' soft while I ride that bomb
Dr. Strangelove
Into the sun
Look no hands megatons
Rode like man we can't lose
No shit, no shit

That hit it till it drip wit
Da blood of the raw way
It was fore dem forgot
Why doin' dirt, make slang sound tough gong original
fuck da wrong way
Only one real way to work
That shit out da
Beat street spit
Über freaked heat lit
Hell flame to your brain
Blood thirst
What what...
Run it back, run it

Run up bitch ta da death get gripped my steeze is ballin' out

The only scene in Skyline worth watching - nuking the aliens

morelenmir says...

I enjoyed it well enough. It was nice to see an alien/current-day-human confrontation end the way it would in reality. I'm sure I'll enjoy the sequel too.

That was clearly a multi-megaton device though - so the American government had already written off LA.

Massive Underwater Nuclear Test

Bachmann runs from prior gay stmts-Anderson Cooper reports

Stormsinger says...

>> ^harpom:

As a Canadian, I can not fathom how this woman is getting any media attention what so ever.
She is bat shit crazy and her views are myopic at best.
It really scares me sometimes being so close to a Country that has such a willingness to go to war, and to imagine a person as stupid as this in charge of the United States.


Being close doesn't put you any more at risk...our military-industrial complex can deliver multiple megatons of destruction anywhere on the globe. All for the low, low price of just a few billion dollars a week.

Antihydrogen produced and trapped at CERN

GeeSussFreeK says...

From wiki:

The reaction of 1 kg of antimatter with 1 kg of matter would produce 1.8×10^17 J (180 petajoules) of energy (by the mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc²), or the rough equivalent of 43 megatons of TNT.

Countdown to Zero

NordlichReiter says...

This is one of those, "Say one thing but do another," situations.

http://www.brookings.edu/projects/archive/nucweapons/50.aspx

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapons_and_the_United_States#Accidents

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W87

The one consider that one Minuteman III missile can carry up to 12 of those W87 warheads, which were originally meant for the Peacekeeper Missile system. The W87 does about 400 KT of damage. According to the Ground Zero Map http://www.carloslabs.com/projects/200712B/GroundZero.html that can be, roughly, a radius of 6.5 miles of damage in all directions from the epicenter. Now the Minuteman can carry 12 400 KT warheads. Math? Heh, that's a 4800 Kilotons per Minuteman or 4.8 Megatons. How many Minutemen does the US have in stockpile, after SORT? 1,050 land based ICBMs. More math?

1,050 Land Base Nuclear Devices
12 Warheads per device
400 KT per Warhead

Total warheads per weapon 12,600. Did I mention that those warheads can be guided to different targets? That's, roughly, 5.04 Gigatons of TNT. Those are just the land based missile systems. That's not counting the Airborne nukes, or the Ohio Class Nuclear subs.

5.04 Giga, fuck, tons of TNT. When they say they are getting rid of their nukes, I chortle.

My numbers may be off I'm by no means an expert, also note that I would assume all 1,050 Minuteman ICBMs cannot be launched at the same time. I just really like large numbers and who gets to write Giga fuck tons of TNT every day?

I heard a couple of these from my butler Wadsworth at my villa in Megaton, just before I shot him.

Japanese Animation of the Hiroshima A-Bomb

NordlichReiter says...

>> ^Memorare:
American Cowards, American Babykillers.
If there is a god and a hell i pray that the crew of the Enola Gay writhes in screaming agony for all eternity.
9/11 is just the first installment on the Payback for the unspeakable abominations that you have inflicted on the world over the last 200+ years.
The world will cheer at your demise.


Firstly there is no god, only the tyranny of evil men.

Secondly I agree with joe dirt, the Allies will always try to cover their asses for such a dasterdly use of the bomb to show stalin their true power.

Which russia would take steps further to drop the worlds largest nuke called the tsar bomba - King Bomb with 50 megatons.

Lets put it into perspective.

Little boy was 13 - 18 kilotons
fat man was 21 kilotons

Tsar bomba was 50 Megatons. the two little ones don't even come close to the big one.

The bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima were little compared to the monstrosities that we have stocked up today.

What was it for? Its all a waste.

The Disco Just Got 100 Times Eviler Man! (Dark Talk Post)

Crosswords says...

Disco isn't dead it's just twisted, bitter and a tad psychotic, idling his time away in his lair, plotting, and piecing together his 200 megaton atomic disco ball...

What were we doing here again? Oh yeah congrats on 100 stars!!

GZA - Liquid Swords

MrFisk says...

When the MC's came, to live our their name
And to perform (forrrrm)
Some had, to snort cocaine (caiiinnne) to act insane (sannne)
with before Pete Rock-ed it on, now gone
that the mental plane (plaaanne) to spark the brain (brainnn)
with the building to be born
Yo RZA flip the track with the what to guy
Check em check chicka icka etta UHH

Fake niggaz get blitzed
and mic bites I swing swords and cut clowns
Shit is too swift to bite you record and write it down
I flow like the blood on a murder scene, like a syringe
on some loud howl shit, to insert a fiend
But it was yo ock, the shop stolen heart
Catch a swollen heart from not rollin smart
I put mad pressure, on phony wack rhymes that get hurt
Shit's played, like zodiac signs on sweatshirt
That's minimum, and feminine like sandals
My minimum table stacks a verse on a gamble
Energy is felt once the cards are dealt
With the impact of roundhouse kicks from black belts
that attack, the mic-fones like cyclones or typhoon
I represent from midnight to high noon
I don't waste ink, nigga I think
I drop megaton BOMBS more faster than you blink
Cause rhyme thoughts travel at a tremendous speed
Clouds of smoke, of natural blends of weed
Only under one circumstance is if I'm blunted
Turn that shit up, my clan in da front want it

I'm on a Mission, that niggaz say is Impossible
But when I swing my swords they all choppable
I be the body dropper, the heartbeat stopper
Child educator, plus head amputator
Cause niggaz styles are old like Mark 5 sneakers
Lyrics are weak, like clock radio speakers
Don't even stop in my station and attack
while your plan failed, hit the rail, like Amtrak
What the fuck for? Down by law, I make law
I be justice, I sentence that ass two to four
round the clock, that state pen time check it
With the pens I be stickin but you can't stick to crime
Came through with the Wu, slid off on the DL
I'm low-key like seashells, I rock these bells
Now come aboard, it's Medina bound
Into the chamber, and it's a whole different sound
It's a wide entrance, small exit like a funnel
So deep it's picked up on radios in tunnels
Niggaz are fascinated how the shit begin
Get vaccinated, my logo is branded in your skin

Daily Show - Debt to America!

rychan says...

1 food calorie is really a kilo-calorie of chemistry persuasion, each of which is 4.184 joules.

An explosion equivalent to 1 megaton (a small hydrogen bomb) is equivalent to 4.184×10^15 Joules (source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT_equivalent )

So, 4.184×10^15 / (170 * 1000 * 4.184) = 5.8824 x 10^9 Ranchero Chicken Soft Tacos. (i.e. 6 billion, i.e. one delicious taco for everyone on Earth.)

A Tzar Bomba, at 50 megatons, would be 50 tacos for everyone on Earth. And an epidemic of scurvy.

Wikipedia notes that carbohydrates have higher energy density than TNT, so if you actually measured nuclear explosions in mega-tons of tacos, it would be a smaller number than mega-tons of TNT.

Fallout 3 Gameplay Demo (Released Aug 29/08)

Xax says...

There are quite a few little things that have bothered me about Fallout 3 along the way. The crab people were certainly surprising, and not in a good way. The super mart video was pretty bleh in particular. But despite my reservations, I can see myself having a great time with the game. Megaton and the quest to nuke it were pretty killer. It's the only game I can think of that I'm actually anticipating for the rest of the year.
