Oct 11, 2008 - Was the film in the camera actually melting at 1:45ish?The thing that really scares me is that modern warheads are upwards of 70 times more powerful than the ones they had back then... I'm not normally one to shy away from modern science, but I still can't reconcile the fact that human beings have this kind of power.

Oct 11, 2008 - Exactly. . . . The central axis of the terrestrial globe will rotate in 90th! The waters will invade the inhabited areas and it will reappear other, same new continents. This is the condition that will annihilate to the humanity's 3rd part!

kaktus92 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - My mother-tongue ain´t english, so I don´t know if H-bomb and nuclear bomb is the same thing, but if I remember correctly, Russia had like...I think it was 9000 or 20000 nuclears during The Cold War, or if it was now. Still, that´s A LOT more! And during the cold war, the US and Russia could have blown the whole planet apart, several times over. Spooky...

Colorado233 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - The Arms Race began after the Union Of Soviet Socalistic Republics thought the United States of America would control the world with the Atomic Bomb. During this time tens of thousands of explosives were made and tested. The H-Bomb was exploded and other nukes were exploded. One question. The USA promised the Soviets it would not build up nuculer energy but after the USSR ended we have millions of bombs and high powered machine guns.
