END OF THE WORLD! What If We Detonated All Nuclear Bombs at Once? (REACTION!!!) Kurzgesagt

What's up Sauce Gang and welcome back to the Hot Sauce Beats channel here with an explosive and educational

reaction

for you. We're dipping back into the channel in a nutshell. A couple of episodes ago, they posted one about

nuclear

weapons and you guys highly recommended that look,

what

would happen if we

detonated

all the

nuclear

bombs

at

once

? Now fair warning, this will probably give us nightmares all night and it's a terrible thing that I don't even want to think about, but let's find out, but before we do, can you show some love by subscribing to our family of channels?

We're trying to reach a quarter of a million subscribers, so if you haven't already, hit that subscribe button and join the S Gang family, but enough talking, let's start reacting and rolling that great intro SAU beats finally it's here hot sauce beats it's finally here eat sleep make beats eat sleep make beat hotu be Wait, wait a minute, I have to get some education on it, many of our viewers have asked us a very serious question:

what

would happen if we did a big pile of

bombs

and explode all the nuclear weapons in the

world

at

once

?

Oddly enough, we couldn't find a good source to answer this question to our satisfaction, so we rounded up some scientists. To calculate what would happen and find an answer to this extremely important scientific problem once and for all, there are currently 15,000 nuclear weapons on Earth, the United States and Russia have around 7,000, while France, China, the United Kingdom, Pakistan India, Israel and North Korea possess around 1,000 between them, but how much destructive power is this? Let's try to put these numbers in perspective. The entire Earth, like the Little Big Bang theory. The earth. Big Earth Bang. Big Bang.

Theory of the Earth. On Earth there are around 4,500 cities or urban areas with at least 100,000 inhabitants. some are larger than others, so we will assume that, on average, we need three nuclear bombs to completely eliminate a city. This means we could destroy every city on planet Earth with our nuclear arsenal killing over 3 billion people, about half of humanity in an instant and we would still have 1,500 nuclear weapons left, Jesus that's what one expert would call Overkill, so we can say with confidence that we have many nuclear weapons and they can cause a lot of damage, but what if we make a huge pile of 15,000 bombs and pull the trigger, let's drop our nuclear pile in the middle of the Amazon jungle alone to show nature whose boss our warheads fit in a small I don't care if you make it rain, I will rain us Warhead has the power of 200,000 tons of TNT, so 15,000 warheads would be the equivalent of 3 billion tons of TNT to scale.

This is enough to rebuild the entire island of Manhattan with every building and skyscraper using stacks of TNT. figure it out friend, how do you calculate that fact? What we can compare to the energy gathered here is a volcano. One of the deadliest volcanic eruptions in recorded history took place in 1883 on the island of Katoa. The eruption was so powerful that 70% of the island and the surrounding archipelago were destroyed killing tens of thousands of people. Its effects were felt around the

world

for days after the event. Our nuclear pile contains 15 times the energy of the Kat volcanic eruption, so let's finally press the 3 2 1 button in one second.

A fireball 50 km in diameter vaporizes everything in its path and creates a shock wave that destroys 3,000 square kilometers of forest. All living things within a 250 km radius will begin to burn. Many explosions will be heard literally around the world as the pressure wave circles the Earth dozens of times over the next few weeks millions of tons of incinerated material are catapulted into the atmosphere the mushroom cloud reaches the outer reaches of the stratosphere pushing against space itself after things have calmed down a small crater about 10 km in diameter remains in the center of The worst FS world the planet has seen in millennia spreads across South America burning forests and cities equally and now the unpleasant part begins.

The extremely radioactive material will kill living things very quickly and a large area of ​​several kilometers around the crater is now uninhabitable. Everywhere, for hundreds of kilometers downwind, much of the fallout is carried high into the atmosphere by the mushroom cloud and carried around the planet. The amount of radioactive material in the environment is doubling worldwide, which is not yet the end of civilization, but we may see more cancer in the future. While some of the particles will fly to the edge of space for years and cause a nuclear winter that could reduce global temperatures by a few degrees for a few years, this explosion was quite serious if you are in southern South America and especially Brazil.

The Amazon rainforest is practically history, which is no big deal, but human life will continue. We need oxygen, okay, but what if we explode more nuclear weapons? Suppose humanity decided to extract all the uranium on Earth and build as many nuclear bombs as possible. In current use, it is estimated that there are about 35 million tons of uranium in the Earth's crust, enough to fuel human civilization for more than 2,000 years or to build millions of nuclear warheads. For the sake of argument, let's say we create a stack with a return of 10 billion. Hiroshima bombs forming a 3 km high cube containing about the energy of the asteroid impact that ended the age of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, except it's also nuclear three, except it's also worse if our pile explodes into a shootable expanse that extends so high into the sky that it is visible from half of South America with such force that the ground simply splashes like water forming a crater 100 km from Bedrock on the scale of entire mountain ranges. vaporizes in an instant as thousands of tons of material are catapulted at such speed that it is ejected into space, some leaving Earth forever, while most falls as rain in the form of hot, burning debris that heats the atmosphere to similar temperatures. to those of a furnace, most large animals and cause firestorms around the world, the Earth's crust rings like a bell rung. by Global earthquakes stronger than anything in recorded history decimate cities around the world as hurricane-force winds crush every tree in South America and forest fires consume the continent every tree the abundance of hydrocarbons in the Amazon burned to form Ashes are thrown into the atmosphere throwing the sky and preventing sunlight from reaching the surface causing temperatures to drop to near freezing around the world, the terrifying CH the resulting global winter can last for decades and results in the extinction of all large animal species, including humans, we could also mention that every corner of the planet is covered in radioactive fallout, but at this point it doesn't matter much anymore, this is the extinction event of humanity, the astronauts aboard the International Space Station can enjoy a Great sight for a while, but it's not unlikely that exploding rocks in orbit will destroy the station for those lucky enough to be in bunkers or submarines deep beneath the ocean's surface.

They may survive longer before they exhaust their food supplies and have to venture out to find more. They will find the world to be a frozen, charred radioactive wasteland. I was on the planet itself. It doesn't matter down there, after a few million years the wounds from the explosions have healed and life is thriving, possibly even more so than when humans existed, if intelligent life emerges again we might be able to figure out what happened when they study geology. They will find a strange, very thin layer of rock that covers the entire world enriched in radioactive elements like uranium and other nasty things mixed with rare metals and plastics that humans used.

They would probably be very, very confused about what happened. Videos like this. take over 12200 hours to finish over the years we put more and more effort into research conversations with illustration and animation experts bro okay let me bring you let me bring you to the chat buddy in a nutshell bring out some pretty crazy things to think about you and it's absolutely terrifying man, like it's not, I just don't even like thoughts like that being in my head, I don't want to know, I don't want to think about the day of more nukes. it's fading but it's good to know what's going to happen and that's goodbye friends see you later friend alligator that last one literally blew up over half the continent just like that and they said there was so much pressure everyone would like to leave like that .

It's a wave so I don't know, let me know what you guys think. I also love watching this channel. Let me know some other videos you want me to check out, but in the meantime, can you pop in and show some love by subscribing? to our channel and our family trying to reach a quarter of a million subscribers, so if you haven't already, hit the subscribe button and join the SAU Gang family, enjoy the rest, you're even a member of the air, it's eat, sleep, make beats and, as always, be kind. each other that's all I have boom I'm out I don't have nightmares I have a love G peace out chat boy
