Nuclear Test Film Highlights - Restored Footage, New Films, Epic Explosions

Much of the first half of this video is newly declassified material, recently released. The second half progresses toward lesser-known sequences, finishing off with footage that has been in the hands of the original videographer for decades. Many of these films were scratched, dusty, and exhibited significant color fading. Those have been restored to the best of my (admittedly novice) ability. Enjoy the disturbingly lovely kilotonnage. Something cool: If you pause the video at ~:26 and watch the first second or two of Tumbler-Snapper Able at 1/4 speed, you can actually see the air-dropped device falling before it detonates. Thank you to Gregory Walker of the Trinity Atomic website for his assistance in identifying nuclear test shots and for his advice. If you are interested in information about nuclear weapons I highly recommend checking out his website, http://www.abomb1.org
Nuclear testing ended over 20 years ago but the legacy of the test areas still remains and will do for hundreds or thousands of years. 8 countries have actively tested nuclear weapons, some in their own backyard if it was big enough like the Soviet Union and the US but they also used others peoples backyards in the Pacific, the British and French did this.
