I though't I might need my tin hat on after that PM,. . . what with me being responsible for some of those in the Pacific and at Maralinga. . .I did go there once and apologise to Gaia. . . . Dunno if she believed me. . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarly Gnu Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Some residual radiation is good - indeed essential - for human health; the actual amount has not been agreed upon however. This may be little more than necessary - Five men agree to stand directly underneath a nuclear detonation: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacesailor Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 My favorite star " John Wayne" watched quite a few of the N test's, and payed the price, riddled with cancer. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarly Gnu Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 70 Years Ago, the U.S. Military Set Off a Nuke Underwater, And It Went Very Badly Then they tried it four more times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDMUekfOR-E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Perry Posted July 30, 2016 Author Share Posted July 30, 2016 I found this handy little simulation prog a while back. . . NUKE your own town. You even get to choose the yield of the device, ground or airburst etc. . .. http://nuclearsecrecy.com/nuke... > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Very interesting. I wonder if the kids of today would be interested in it, spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be little more than necessary - Five men agree to stand directly underneath a nuclear detonation: Thanks for that Gnarly. . . .That was a fascinating story, A friend looked up the following comments on this movie. The Camera Man George Yoshitake (the cameraman, not seen) is still alive. Don Lutrel — I think this is a misspelling of "Luttrell." There is a Donald D. Luttrell in the DVA database, US Army CPL, born 1924, died 1987 (age 63) Seems like a possibility.Maj. Norman Bodinger — unclear (not listed in the database), he may still be alive? Maj. John Hughes — very common name, but I'm guessing he is Maj. John W. Hughes II (born 191 9, same as the above) — died in 1990 (age 71) Lt. Col. Frank P. Ball — died in 2003 (age 83) Col. Sidney C. Bruce — died in 2005 (age 86) So. . . . .it appears that standing underneath a detonating Nuke did not seem to affect these chaps living quite long lives ? ? Phil.
