Original Note:
This is not footage of the Tsar nuclear test. This is footage of RDS-37 - a 1955 Soviet nuclear test whose footage is often confused with that of the Tsar test. It had a yield of 1.6 megatons. Actual footage of the Tsar test can be found here: https://youtu.be/YtCTzbh4mNQ?si=6yRg0-RSLcqgSgiV Sources: https://youtu.be/EHRLEMTsLyA?si=LdtPmbpiWQyrR-69 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDS-37 https://ahf.nuclearmuseum.org/ahf/history/tsar-bomba/
