How big are humanities nukes?

[Mr.Interceptor]

Made this in 5 minutes.  Huehuehuehue

Not big enough.

[Skyfrost]

even if you threw that into the deepest part of the ocean, not only would it be bad for the wildlife, as i just realized from this example, the blowout would still be catastrophic

[Raeyok]

so the hiroshima nuke was that big, didnt it blow up 2 japanese cities if im not mistaken

The bomb dropped on Hiroshima, nicknamed, "Little Boy," destroyed most of Hiroshima. The other city you're thinking of, Nagasaki, had a bomb dropped on it nicknamed, "Fat Man." "Little Boy" was a uranium bomb, while "Fat Man" was a plutonium bomb.

The best place to test something that huge would be the moon really because no matter where you go, it WILL BE loving CATASTROPHIC

Yes, blow up the thing that controls our tides.

[Roknrollwill]

It gets hit by massive rocks.  Lets do eet.

...

massive rocks =/= enormous 50 megaton nuclear explosion

[Nepthan]

Not big enough.

It had to be done.

[Titanium]

I hope that I am preaching to the choir.

This graph is nothing more than a illustration of how large each detonation was in terms of explosive power.  The mushroom cloud images do not accurately portray the width and height of one cloud relative to another since the X and Y axes do not label a measure of distance.  

It's just a visual aid.  It might as well be a bar chart.

No, look that camera was WAY to close to get the tsar bomb in action.

Even bigger.

Ohai physics dumbass.

A massive rock hurling through space at 50,000 MPH has much more energy then a bomb.

[The Russian]

Made this in 5 minutes.  Huehuehuehue

The original Tsar bomb was 100 megatons, making it bigger than your Planet Buster.

[Sarge]

Made this in 5 minutes.  Huehuehuehue

You guys clearly don't understand that the sizes of those explosions are only relevant to the scale on how many megatons of TNT are in them not rather then the explosion size.
