1294 Scenes of two nuclear detonation tests on Bikini Atoll, one on the ground, another slightly submerged below the water. Much is made of the various preparations, talking about the cameras used to film the event, the planes taking aerial photos, etc. The second test is probably the more spectacular, showing a mammoth cloud of radioactive seawater steam spreading across a wide area. Animals such as goats and pigs are tied to some of the unmanned test ships berthed close to ground zero; fortunately the film doesn't show us what happens to them. Beautiful, terrifying explosion footage Lewis Payne 2003-02-12 15:53:35 2003-02-12 15:53:35 3 7950 A fairly interesting piece about the Bikini Atoll nuke bomb tests, One above the water and the other in. Various test ships are moored down. Unsurprisingly, most are reduced to rubble. Also, there are pigs and goats left on the ship, used to test the effects of the bomb on them. Since nothing is mentioned after that about their fate, we can only guess it was buh-bye! Best Moment: A US official goes to the Island of Bikini to offer King Midas 'gifts'. Make your own joke there. What happened to the goats? Spuzz 2003-12-09 13:31:58 2003-12-09 13:31:58 4 34429 gmm gmm Jah Gussi 2005-03-10 03:35:07 2005-03-10 03:35:07 5 3 4.00
