Madness - USSR '61 

Well both have a sense of arousal men look for . So no difference

Too much to ask for both?

@@bhutochakrabarti4173 real men want the big bomba

Tsar Bomba

Boobamba

goverment wanted a 100 MT bomb but scientist know was too much, so they reduce to almost half the power

Some of this footage was only declassified and released last year I think.

@@countsmyth yep, late August 2020

Could be wrong but I always assumed the Tsar bomb was more of a stunt and "proof" of Soviet scientific genius than a practical weapon of war. I'm not even sure they could develop a delivery system for the weapon especially since ICBMs and ultimately multiple-warhead missiles would come to dominate both sides of the Cold War.

@@sonofccn since it's a nuclear released from a plane, I think it was never designed for combat or bombing other countries since you know, Anti Air and aircraft interceptors exist.

some random windows in Helsinki.

@@OmnistarEast Found him in the wild

It ain't much, but it's honest work

Some might even say a little too much trolling

@British Pride It's called they did a little trolling

@@conordwyer1553 Not too much trolling , the fact that we are alive today shows that they just did the right amount of trolling

some tomfoolery was perpetrated indeed

Me too, thanks for watching.

@@MajorSamm wait what?

@@cpeezy3119 he's grateful that xeap discovered this channel

Cool profile picture

@@Thomas-tc7hp thanks man uwu

It's a good one, glad you like it too.

Just heard one of the lines of the song "fly to Hiroshima" and now I'm like 😐

@@tennisyn6493 same

It ain't over til'' it's over

The game of deterrence.

Mutually assured destruction prevents it.

Arguably, them just sitting in depots is exactly the way they were meant to be used. A nuclear armed world is a diplomatic world

Humans never had major wars ever since the nukes were made

Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it.

I second this, the combo "interesting topic"+"images well chosen"+"incredible related song" makes everything

Never a disappointment.

I'm fucking shredded

@@MajorSamm Just found your channel MajorSamm. It's not hurting my philosophy at all, but man o man it's not helping my PTSD one bit. Thanks for your content.

In 1961 there were some signs of the downfall. In 1956,10 days after Khrushchev ruled the country and start insulting Stalin's legacy, a uprising went off in Tiflis, Gruzia. In 1957, Khrushchev start the "coming back progress" for minor ethnics that be moved violently in the late of WW2 to their old hometown, but the fact is this action increased the conflicts between the minor and the Russian (because the Russian moved to the old house and farm of the minor and used them when the minor was moving), and facilities in a lot of villages in Central Asia were thown away. From 1957, after decades without any great economic crysis, the economy of USSR was slowly go down, started with its food production, because of some shitty policies of Khrushchev. From 1961 to its ending, USSR became more and more depent on oil and gas, and had to import cereals from its allies and even the West, although it was one of the most mechanized food production system in the world. What a weird.

@@mrmakhno3030 "stalin's legacy" stfu

Yee Yee ? Stalin had a legacy, After all he was one of the main founders of the USSR.

@@serbianmonkeyclub1146 and that's a good thing?

Yee Yee Well, It is. Love the Soviet Union or not, They had the most power out of any country in the world until the 1970s.

Why fight a nation when you can disrupt a market

I still think to this day that the arms race are the only thing that kept the world from another all blown out world war(until the soviet collapses of course)

@@sruicruicplox9803 Well yes that's a well established theory of international security studies

For now.

Until 4 days ago.

Glad you liked it, it's one of my favourites.

@@MajorSammU are one gem for someone like me who is interested in geo politics and cold war. As a pol science student these videos are once in rare soothing feeling .

I hope to god that its something like this and not us killing each other.

We sure could use a SpaceX montage (might be too recent). I'm having trouble finding inspiring mainstream stories that give hope to humanity's potential, and that indeed is a troubling find ^^ :/ But maybe blowing our world to hell with nukes/ preventing wars, deserves more attention than anything else.

@Porridge Man, God bless everyone (and you too)

MajorSamm has been using footage from as recent as 2015 so it's not a stretch someone who watches this channel may appear in one of his videos one day. Imagine seeing yourself in a MajorSamm thing

"Capitol Riots - USA '21"

I think it was lower than that, because even with the tsar Bomba being dropped from so high and it's parachute giving them more time, it might still not have been enough time to leave the blast zone, but they made it out, thankfully

They were initially told they would not survive, then when they reduced the yield I think they said 20% chance. The point being the pilots were willing to die for their countries pride.

@@tomsoki5738 Besides, their plane and them would dissolve into particles too small to be seen by the naked eye in a flash, you wouldn't feel anything, at most maybe a small pinch and extreme heat for like 2 miliseconds, and their plane would crash, killing anyone left near-instantly

No, they've been dropped with a little parachute, so pilot had enough time to pull the gas to full to escape. And those planes have extra metal plates on the pilot's back to block hazard rays.

Pretty sure we wouldn't have footage of the flight if it killed them

It looks like they are applying the paint at 1:26.

@@Gerle71 yep they are

It was almost blown out of the sky by the blast

When it was back it was scorched

Anti-Flash White. The brits used it a lot as well.

10th like

Everyone knows that it was originally supposed to be 100 megs and that the pilots were given 50/50 odds of making it back

I'm pretty sure such a bomb would have light up the sky to some parts of Europe as well. Such a bomb could even wipe out a cluster of small nations.

At that point they'd need to either get a remote controlled plane or a missile for it

@@bryanmartinez6600 it would wipe new York city off the map literally all of the city and a fair bit of the state

The actually wanted to drop a 100mt bomb but couldn’t because the plane wouldn’t get away fast enough

@@ss-qm5hz and even with the fifty Megaton bomb they were given a 50-50 chance of making it back alive and there were two other planes trailing it to make sure that they got the footage for it and I think one of them was a mid-air refueling plane

Thanks a lot man, it's good to know the intended effect is coming across.

@OVOD.net Im pretty sure that's exactly what would happen... the eradication of not just the human race, but all life on earth.

@OVOD.net bet your fun at parties

@OVOD.net A big rock hitting earth is a bit different than a nuclear fallout caused by over 5000 nuclear missiles

Like on Chinese-Indian border

Great and famous quote, but today it isn't actual anymore.

Thank you and thanks for watching, good luck with your video too.

@@MajorSamm Of course! Thanks.

@@PrestonFrankel You've got promise, guys check his channel out... 1 video out, it's a start (y)

those footage has been published by russian around 1 year ago, before it was classified

Thanks a lot man, and thank you for watching.

@@MajorSamm RDS-220 50+MT tritium core test "bomb". It wasn't a Weapon of Destruction - It was Weapon of Peace. The saving angel that wore the mask of... Certain Death.

Я жил рядом с аэродром 20 км. Так эти ту95 каждый день, да через день и ночью летали. Низко, гул...

That's part of the song lol

@@rg4730 What is?

The Soviets are kinda like a SD80MAC, powerful and gone but not forgotten!

Madness is a maleable concept. At a galactic scale it doesn't matter what happens to us. Lets not get overly emotional.

Puts some perspective on today’s problems.

Hahaha, dear God, you must be from some first world country that never saw any war on its soil. Your calm state of mind is a true luxury in my opinion.

According to factual reality, after Biden slandered Putin as a killer and directly threatened Russia, relations between America and Russia have never been worse through the entire existence of America.

@@BigSmartArmed well they might have been worse during the Cuban Missile Crisis, or the Checkpoint Charlie standoff, or the U2 Spy Plane Crisis, or y'know, a vast period of the Cold War

@@loocat5070 "might have been" becasue back then they were reported on, yet now censorship is under such totality of tyranical control, that American public would not know if Russian tank columns already rolled through Berlin.

Basically Alaska?)

@Erozpl01 01 yea exactly

@@sgtvarenuha_viii_leg that feel when you are Alaskan

Если хотите, то это вы можете подобное увидеть где-нибудь в Мурманской области. Такой же ландшафт.

There is some weird hypnotic thing about nuclear detonations...a sense of finality perharps

Its in our deep nature to war and destroy. Its like a fire that warms the warrior spirit in us all.

No, it is rational, because these irrational bombs didn't lead to the complete annihilation of the human race and we actually managed to survive As you could probably tell, you are watching this on the internet through the comfort of your screen in the future, far far far away from the radiation or the heat- or shock-waves that came with such irrational nuclear bombs.

The footage was only declassified about a year ago.

You're welcome man, thank you for watching it.

It's pretty rad huh?

ICBM's were already around by this point. Multiple lower yeild devices are more effective in combat simulations. This is just a proof of concept at the end of the day.

@@05pittsd funny thing, strategic nukes are not meant to destroy the world. They are meant to wipe out enemy industry quickly to achieve victory faster than flying bombers over enemy territory. If a nuclear war had started the fallout would have subsided in a short time allowing people to live, but the unrest that would follow would change the entire world.

@@goforbroke4428 however we all know the mentality of many nations. If they fall they take as much with them as possible. Wouldn't doubt the largest nations having a a dead man switch that will just unleash their arsenal of missiles across the globe and some priority targets. The USSR had the Dead Hand and the US had the ERCS. In a simple form I believe it's there's no one left the computer will now take the final command use the entire nuclear and conventional arsenal. It's on the idea of mutual destruction to Guarantee no victor comes out in the end.

He's has probably put more people off war than every peace protestor in history. The easiest way to get people to despise war is to show them it in all its glory and horror.

The world is duality

Rest assured. The total number of nukes currently ready for deployment is not enough to destroy the planet or cause a nuclear winter, but it will fuck up the world as we know it. So even if Putin pushed that button, we will still get to watch the world crumbles before our eyes.

So the pilots were pretty lucky they even land intact

@@novanoir8309 i heard one of the pilots quit his job after he saw the destruction

I bet if you did that you'd be kissing your finger goodbye too

Glad you liked it, thank you.

Thanks a lot man, make sure you get some water in you and stay safe, look after yourself

@@MajorSamm Thank you, will do. The situation luckily took a rather large step towards getting resolved right after it
