Time lapse of every nuclear explosion

Who says fallout wasn't a reality?

 

This makes me want to play Fallout again....

 

I wonder how far the nuclear arms race went towards breaking the economy of the USSR.

And what is up with France setting off so many nukes?

 

Why did they stop at 1998? The Middle East was about to go nuts.

 

Upsetting to watch.

 

Britain is like that little guy with the pistol in Harlem Nights.

Well you have to remember that half of Germany was communist controlled until near the end of that whole video. France was probably the most in danger due to them being the closest major power (re: East vs West - any 'conventional war would have most likely been played out right on top of them, also hence the development of 'tactical nukes') to the USSR, so they had to play the game as well.

And yes, the arms race was one of the major factors in finally breaking the communists' backs. Frankly, given communism's near total lack of ability to innovate and compete, it is amazing they lasted as long as they did.

 

Which one was the one that almost killed Indy Jones had he not found that lead refrigerator to hide in?

 

I agree. ****in crazy ass people living post WWII

 

LOL the US and nukes...

Screw playing Fallout, I'm gonna go watch The Hills Have Eyes, which is probably a more realistic scenario

 

I knew we did a lot of tests in the nevada test range but my goodness. i didtn expect over 500+ tests there. I thought the majority of our tests were out in remote pacific islands.

Somewhat disturbing knowing we had these tests to close to home.

 

Mutant hill creatures, not even once

 

It was aliens....

This is like Fallout if it were ever released on the Atari 2600.

Guys I discovered how climate change happened.

 

I had a history professor who thought this was the case. I haven't done enough of my own research to really confidently make a judgment one way or the other, but the way I remember him presenting it, it made sense.

Unless I'm misparaphrasing him, his assertion was that the USSR was really a paper tiger all along during the arms and space race.

 

America F YEAH

 

I'm actually surprised that we aren't still actively detonating nuclear bombs for testing. I mean we obviously have them in our arsenal in case **** hits the fan. Is this saying that we really haven't tested those weapons for over a decade?
