VIDEOS: The Most Spectacular And Destructive Atomic Bombs In History http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/05/the-most-spectacular-and-destructive-atomic-bombs-in-history/Here are the most spectacular and destructive atomic bombs, from the United States, the Soviet Union, and China. Most of them are in crispy HD thanks to the folks at Atom Central, one of my favourite sites. It just boggles my mind how much energy, intelligence, and resources humanity has wasted in these terrifying devices.

 Editor’s note: Yes, we know that “atomic” is a misnomer. These are actually nuclear weapons, since the destructive force comes from the fission of rather than the collision of atoms. If you want to get technical, even a stick of TNT is an “atomic” weapon.
