"YOU MADE A BOMB THAT COULD DESTROY ENTIRE CITIES??" "Don't worry, it's just precautionary, it's not like they'll actually use it." *Explosion sound in the distance* "...that could be anyone's bomb."
Phone: Mr. Oppenheimer, the bomb you made that could destroy entire cities just got sent to Japan and destroyed- Oppenheimer: oh, god, they blew up one of the biggest cities in Japan. Phone...Not just *one*...
dear internet stranger, this was so funny that i decided to show this comment to my wife's boyfriend, he was so amused that he decided to give me a few more hours on the nintentoe switch, thank you, have my reddit gold kind stranger
So let me get this straight... I'm somewhere out in the desert... I'm seeing freaking explosions, and, oh yeah, I'm talking to the secretary of defence. That's something I do now.
''Well, at least the Enola is still straight, right?'' - Oppenheimer reluctantly asks after hearing the news about the bomb being misused to kill people
Actually you want Burning in the Skies playing, the song after The Radiance where they quote Oppenheimer. Learn your Linkin Park you absolute philistines! We knew the world would not be the same. Few people laughed, few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.
Sounds like that one dude who survived the explosion in Hiroshima, then dragged himself onto a train the following morning to get to his job in Nagasaki, only to be caught in that explosion as well, which he also survived.
@@anaveragegamingchannel1843man the Japanese with ethic is insane because I'm sorry if I survived a nuclear explosion in not working another day in my life
"And the final and most *important rule* when handling an atom bomb. DO. NOT. DROP IT!" "Yeahhhh about that..." "Oh God, you didn't drop one did you?" "No sir! We didn't drop......one" *"HOW DO YOU ACCIDENTALLY DROP MULTIPLE BOMBS!?"* "Well Mr Heimer, it wasn't exactly an accident" "So you were just testing them again?" "Correct sir!" "Hopefully in a safe and remote location. Right? "..............." "RIGHT?"
Oppenheimers Wife: “YOU BUILT A BOMB THAT CAN DESTROY A CITY!!!” Oppenhiemer “… No of course not, that would be very irresponsible” *Delivery guy walks in* Delivery guy: “Hey Oppenheimer I got you that plutonium you asked for, for the bomb. With this much it should easily be able to take out a city” Oppenhiemer: “… okay so I can explain”
Shut the fuck up charles. You can’t blame me for eating five donuts. I get to the damn office at seven every morning. Opp rolls in at ten forty five and expects them to be around. It’s FIRST come FIRST serve!
The original goal was to blow up a test bomb in the desert in front of japanese officials as a threat, but instead they decided to test to bomb directly on the japanese
I saw Robert Oppenheimer at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Trueman: "And this is the plane we will use, the Enola Gay" *Everyone in the room snickers and tries not to laugh* Trueman: "What's so funny" Oppenheimer: "N-nothing, nothing at all *snicker* Please, Continue!"
The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Fuck and Suck".
"Man I sure love being a communist! Thank goodness there are no FBI agents here" (Hard cut to fbi agent tapping his foot behind Oppenheimer) "He’s right behind me… isn’t he?"
In October 2001, an elderly Doctor Oppenheimer met with the families of 9/11 victims. After a brief interview in which he expressed his condolences and hope for closure, he reportedly burst out laughing and made airplane noises and mimicked two planes crashing. He then picked up the child of a deceased victim and whispered into her ear "Your dad's dead, bitch", and proceeded to put on a pair of sunglasses and unleash a barrage of martial arts attack on the small child. She was rushed to the hospital where she was pronounced dead due to extreme trauma. When asked later about the incident, Oppenheimer became visibly sexually aroused and repeated the same attack on the reporter.

Well he had no other choice than to build it. Either he built it, another scientist did or the nazis did. He quite clearly felt extreme guilt over building it, and seeing it actually being used wasn’t exactly thrilling. He was against the bombing of nagasaki, and told the president he felt there was «blood on his hands»
@@oneshinyboi3083 building it is one thing, using it is another. Oppenheimer was on the target selection committee for the first bomb, and he was selecting targets after the Nazis had surrendered and all those other threats were a non-factor. Anything the bombs supposedly achieved in ending the war could have been accomplished by detonating it in some field in front of reporters as a threat to Japan, but Oppenheimer shot this down, not even because he didn't think it would work but because he believed it would be "a waste." He's right that there was blood on his hands, and it was his own damn fault.
@@GeneralGrievous-1138 Oppenheimer had no say in where to drop the nuke, Truman was the one who sent out the order. Oppenheimer was heavily against the use of a second nuke, seeing the destruction it caused. Truman didn’t listen, and called Oppenheimer a «cry baby scientist» for feeling the blood was on his hands. Oppenheimer was forced to make the weapon, but Truman was the one who used it willingly.
@@oneshinyboi3083 He was on the fucking target selection committee and is repeatedly mentioned by name in the declassified minutes of the target selection committee. Truman gave the order to drop it, but the target, Hiroshima, had already been selected by a team that included Oppenheimer.
>An entire city is obliterated, tens of thousands killed in an instant, thousands still in horrifying agony, dying from radiation Stereotypical token black character: _"DAYUM!"_
I love how everyone interprets Oppenheimer realising the gravity of what he's just achieved as him actually being completely oblivious and naïve to the fact that bombs are made to kill people. It really brings a certain amount of levity to an otherwise bleak historical situation.
You're being coy. Of course he knew that bombs kill people. He knew that the atom bomb would kill a lot of people. But his naivete was not realizing "the gravity of what he had achieved" beforehand. That's what everyone is laughing about. "Big bomb which kills lots of people and is an existential threat to humanity is... bad?!? I am acting to create... Evil?!? Woe is me!" Meanwhile millions had died in WW2 through conventional means. There was plenty of blood on everyone's hands. And yet here little Opie was, suddenly having a crisis of conscience because now *his* hands had blood on them too. His public, over the top display of guilt was self-aggrandizing in that way, indirectly implying that *his* contribution to the evil done in WW2 was "most important"

"I am become Death... the destroyer of worlds" "Ok maybe not like ACTUAL death or anything like with the big black cloak and the scythe, it's kind of more like a metaphor"
I absolutely loved the scene where he said "I'm going to open my heimers" right before heimering all over the place. Truly one of the scenes of all time
A decade ago I was unwillingly subjected to listening to Gangnam Style. I thought those were minutes of my life that I couldn't get back and information that I didn't need. Fast forward to now and I couldn't be more grateful I heard that song to get this masterpiece of a video.
“Oppenheimer when he went into Truman's Office with Dean Acheson said to the latter, wringing his hands: ‘I have blood on my hands’. Truman later said to Acheson: ‘Never bring that fucking cretin in here again. He didn't drop the bomb. I did. That kind of weepiness makes me sick.’” Source: Jean-Jacques Salomon Science et Politique (1970) - * History in Quotations, Page 882

@@chromicm6686 don't get me wrong I think if Oppenheimer had a problem with making a massive bomb he obviously shouldn't have made one. I just think Truman sounds like a retard here

Oppenheimer might just seem like your ordinary scientist, but once he gets recruited for the Manhattan Project, his life is about to get flipped upside down. Along with a zany cast of characters and his pet demon core, he's about to find out that building a bomb to kill millions of people and irradiate the landscape for two decades might not be as easy as he thought.
They find out the Russians have the bomb and they say “now remember the spy could be any one of us” the camera goes around the table til it reaches a guy wearing an ushanka with a star on it a grey coat and drinking a comically large bottle of vodka and he says “I think he did it”
"I am become death... destroyer of worlds." ... "That sounded better in my head 😅😣" [The bomb utterly wipes out Hiroshima] Well, that just happened... 😅
"Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds..." "Ummm... don't you mean I HAVE become death...?" starts making screw loose gesture Oppenheimer facepalms "Now THAT was embarrassing!"
So what did you guys think of the movie? I really liked the scene at the end where just before Little Boy is about to burn Hiroshima to a crisp, Dr. Oppenheimer jumps right into its path and reveals to have perfected the "Magnum" look, causing the bomb to harmlessly fall to the ground. Truly subversive filmmaking from Nolan
I love when Oppenheimer face the final boss and turn into camera and said "it's Oppenheimering time" and proceed to stoppenheimer the final boss with his signature move after eating a whoppenheimer, although i would consider the scene was a little sloppenheimer, since it contains a sequel bait for upcoming "Oppenheimer 2: I Accidentally Oppenheimered All Over You"
