    eek kaaaaaaaaaaaboooooooom....

    didn't really know where else to put this. It's not really jokey, and it's not very humourus.. in fact.. to me, it's just down right scary, but I thought I'd post it anyway..

    this is how the russians blew up an atomic bomb ages ago.

    Listen for the comment, about the blast being loud enough to hear - on the third pass round the earth..

    I thought the Americans were the 'bigger is better' people.

    That was just scary.

    Tiff Needell is the man behind the voice for the game, that clip, and also co-presents 5th Gear from the uk, after he and Jeremy Clarkson fell out on Top Gear..

    While on the hunt for his correct spelling of his name too (cos I'm crap like that), I found this website - http://www.finalgear.com/ that has downloads of the episodes of Top Gear and 5th Gear! woohoo for work internet!!

    Holy F*ck!! And to think Iran is engaging in study to make sure they have that sort of capability!! Oh, sorry of course it's only for 'economic' reasons.

    And Iran is that much more stable than Russia.....

    I think the yanks did the same sort of thing in the Pacific - scared themselves. they lost a whole island and an atoll. I heard one of those "urban myths" that they thought they had started a chain reaction and it wasn't gonna stop, regardless it was a way bigger bang and went on for a lot longer than they thought. Scary shit, thank fuck we took out madman hussein before he got his hands on a few of those puppies.
    I love the smell of twin V16's in the morning..

    Some more clips:
    http://media.putfile.com/Rock-Out-Wi...udio-Tribute--

    it's a bit big (I think, i just downloaded it at work), but it's got some impressive photography and fireballs in it.

    It also shows building and cars being blown away then sucked back up.
    For those who don't know, atomic bombs or nukes (can't remember which) use oxygen as an accelerant, hence why they're so deadly. It's a bit like an air version of a tsunami where it blows out, then has to suck it all back to fill the void by all the air heading upwards. So the initial blast outwards causing devastation, then the vacuum clears it all to one neat little spot and vapourises it.. or something like that..

    Dont you mean Hydrogen or Thermonuclear bombs cause atomic and nukes are the same thing.....and the accelerant is usually tritium or deuterium to make the big bang....but i stand to be corrected

    That clip was off 'The Ultimates'. It was a series they played at 2 on Sundays on TV3. It was pretty good
