he is right... the thing about a nuclear explosion is that it has more than 1 phase... first there is the imense heat... which will pretty much vaporize anything... then there is the actaul shock wave which isn't that damaging it is just really fucking loud. then the 30 km/sec(a hundred times the speed of sound in normal air) winds rushing away from the explosion... and the lack of air near the explosion creats another vacume sucking all the air back at 150 MPH (or higer). Oh and don't forget about all the radiation and long term effects... oh and the huge ass whole in the ground

i belive in an early test of a nuclear weapon they used a small unihabbitied island to test it on.. yeah it removed the island.. no i am not joking the island is gone

i have also read some cool stories about people who flew in airplanes and filmed the explosion from the air... they wear special gogles so they don't go blind.. and this guy forgot to put them on so a second before the explosion he put his hand over his eyes and when the bomb exploded the X-Rays from the explosion passed thru his hand and he could see the bones in his hand
