Size comparison: Trinity, Ivy Mike, Tsar Bomba

Описание: We all know that the nuclear explosion is enormous, but it's hard for us to grasp the real size of it. This video compares three explosions of nuclear test devices of different yields to the 443 m tall Empire State Building and a 5 km-wide part of the skyline of New York. The drawing of the New York skyline is from an illustration made in 1952. The last part of the video shows a cloud of Soviet Tsar Bomba's explosion, which rose to a height of 57 km at that moment. The video is made for educational purposes.
