Nuclear bomb detonation videos

Underground nuclear explosion

Most people are familiar with the image of a surface explosion of a nuclear bomb, the mushroom explosion cloud and Shockwave force effect.

Now, in this video will see the visual effect of a nuclear bomb exploding hundred of meters underground, while a ground explosion produced a crater as the top layers of soil are vaporized and such of the energy will be directed upwards.

The crater produced by an underground nuclear explosion produces an even huge crater as some of the energy is trapped in the soil and rocks above, forcing the energy to be directed downwards.

The earth beneath the bomb will be compressed, while the soil above will be displaced by the force of the blast causing the soil in the surface to collapse, resulting into a Subsidence crater".
