What a movie! This was a beast to edit down for a reaction, we really hope you enjoy it! And remember, full length versions of all reactions are available on our Patreon!
maybe she meant it became a recent meme in tiktok or whatever. even though it's still a meme, as in its original conception by Richard Dawkins. that quote is a meme. it's part of pop culture and it's been that way for decades so it's technically correct that it's a meme.
The “first self sustaining nuclear reaction” he went to see was a miniature nuclear power plant called the Chicago Pile. The bomb is a chain reaction where a split atom splits two more atoms causing even more atoms to split exponentially, whereas the Pile was stable reaction of one atom split per atom split.
I've been to the Trinity Site. The U.S. Army opens it to visitors twice a year. A lone obelisk stands where the test stand stood. The place has a "presence" I've never felt at any other historical site. The Spanish called the area Jornada del Muerto, the Journey of the Dead. But only a dead and ancient language can ever describe that place. It is the Land of Ceremonies, where the Shaman lived and died.
J. Edgar Hoover was not a good human professionally to say the least. One of the worst, people in charge of a civil Service to America, with a twisted moral compass.
Around the 4:05 mark the music itself starts to increase in tempo, as in the violins get faster and those horns! Wow wee, like I'm not saying the music wouldn't have been shit without them but I do strongly believe that the french horns gave the music that really powerful, heavenly feeling to it, though that's just my opinion on it all though of course haha ❤😊 Edit: which actually confuses me even to this very date because the music tells me that the scene is uplifting but yet it sounds kind of haunting or sad?!?! I'm confused but either way though, the music was absolutely phenomenal and upbeat to listen too, I absolutely loved it all. I also appreciated the other music throughout this entire amazing and beautiful film/movie 🌌❤️
Yes, everyone, eventually, built bigger. But there have been no world wars since Japan's surrender on 2 September 1945 -- less than two months after Trinity. And mutually assured destruction is discussed as far back as in ancient Chinese philosophy as a regrettably mandatory state of affairs due to human nature. For example, if the non-German and non-Japanese countries in Europe and Asia had been vigilant, well armed and united against the Nazis and the Imperial Japanese -- as the US, and thus the West, was against the Soviets in the Cold War -- there would've been no WWII. Would that it did not have to be this way. But it is what it is. There will always be H*tlers and P*tins. And the only thing their kind will ever respect is potential obliteration. “History never repeats itself. Man always does.” - Voltaire
@@alexandergrant-qq2lj I did think... And comparing Putin to Hitler is idiotic, they're not even close to being 'as evil' as eachother. That's why I commented. If you really wanted a good example it would be Kim Jong Un, who is currently the worst dictator alive, who is testing nuclear weapons, has people in labor camps,... Everything you want to illustrate. But for some reason you land Mr. wanna be dicator, Uncle Vladimir. Putin has yet to graduate the middle school of dictators. Just shows how little you know about the world I guess.
Problem is, once that peace breaks (and it _will,_ inevitably), nothing will remain. Mutually assured destruction only holds if the actor believes a retaliatory strike will come and they value self-preservation, which isn’t something that can be taken for granted anymore.
No world wars, no. But there have been so many proxy wars due to the stupid Cold War that there may as well have been. All the bombs accomplished was guaranteeing that there will never be a world war 4.
I feel in my heart there are similar conversations that go on at The Large Hadron Collider near CERN, when these microscopic and miniscule black holes are created through the release of the energy as these particles collide at 99.99% the speed of light. Guess we will all know for certain when they come out with a story that reads like....."OOPS! We didn't accou t for all the particles. Just a matter of time. Might be comforting to know that a black will devour our planet from the point of origin out. 💀👨🚀
If it's any comfort, here's how to put black holes into perspective. Assuming micro black holes are possible, none of this can happen if it's not. A black hole the size of a coin, will destroy, make un-livable, pull apart Earth quite quickly, probably not devour, black holes aren't vacuum cleaners. But keep in mind a black hole the size of a coin contains so much material, that it's equal to a mountain range or even a continent. Not something a particle collider can achieve. The other coin example is that you take the actual material of a coin and make that into a black hole. It would be insanely tiny and due to its size it would instantly wither away through Hawking radiation... very explosively. Probably in the range of Megatons of TNT. Even a coin is an unfathomable amount of material to particle collider to collide at once, orders of magnitude impossible today.
28:40 yes... 😀 .. alot is where i work ... im an astrophysicist . I work in Geneva Switzerland on the LHC... " Larde Hadron Collider " ... and i know for a 💯 that alot of wat we accomplish and our findings are forwarded to S4 and places like that .... " area 51 " .....
Never Be One like it again guys specially getting to react on this historical level by far the greatest IMAX experience of all time with my father that I took there he was in aw the whole entire time which is rare nowadays where everything is another remake or copycat of the golden era like trilogies that should be left alone and come up with new originally like this rare gem 💎 that will be rememberd forever with great writing and conclusions to a 10/10 masterpiece that held my sense of tension to guys all the way through to the phenomenal rare gem 💎 masterpiece ending making it easily the best of the decade that made you think to the world would have been a very different place if Hitler got the bomb like my grandfather who faught in WW2 to make sure that didn't happen but he always said people today don't have a clue of how close it came to a very different ending for the human race and we would be speaking German now because back in the spring of 1942 that was the true reality of the world and the axis was still gobbling up every island or continent and unstoppable on land and water and that's what makes this thought provoking in a disturbing way because you can't win a nuclear war and mankind loses and goes extinct 🦤 in the worst most horrible way imaginable like the scariest movie of all time Threads with no happy ending for humanity just a radioactive waste land where nothing can survive and gets cooked alive from the inside by a million x-rays an hour
Nature doest tell much tbh, and even if she does, we cannot comprehend it lol There is no words to describe.we can't even imagine it. we only have math that helps us understand it a lil.
31:39 cause of the reasons stated but more importantly.... no one thought there was a Russian spy in Los Alamos ...thought it IMPOSSIBLE ... American " our " hubris.....
Kind of. The science covered in chernobyl deals more with how a maintained chain reaction works like what would need in a power plant. Bombs deal more with actually compressing the material down until the chain reaction hits pretty insane levels immediately. Scott Manley has a great video about Chernobyl and a great series about the bombs.
I enjoyed watching you watching this, you are both very smart people, although as a Brit I know where you are from I just can not put my finger on it, I do not want to ruin it by checking so do you both mind... If you get the time to reply, if I guess where you are from? For Science.
Masterpiece? Maybe. I'm no film critic. I do watch a lot of movies and this one was hard to follow (at times) and I feel that the editing was disjointed. While this film is technically more accurate, I enjoyed the version with Paul Newman and Dwight Schultz called Fat Man and Little Boy more than this film.
I was totally disappointed, especially after wasting $25.00. The movie was all over the place, and very hard to keep up with, and quite confusing at times, what a failed attempt to make a good movie, just my opinion.
I felt it was an amazing retelling of the history of the whole thing, and although a bit confusing, i appreciate what was done and is my favorite historical movie thus far
