archosman Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 I've got a high quality color video of the Baker test. If I can easily dig it up I'll post it. That dark shadow inside the column on the right is the USS Arkansas riding vertically in the column of water. Baker was detonated 90 feet underwater. I'm impressed with this one as well as the Einstein pic you posted.
Grahame Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 There's lots of nuclear money shots in "Trinity and Beyond", now available on Blu-Ray, etc 1
Knuckledragger Posted September 3, 2012 Author Report Posted September 3, 2012 ...and now another installment of Unnecessarily Large GIF Theatre:
archosman Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) There's lots of nuclear money shots in "Trinity and Beyond", now available on Blu-Ray, etc Got it when it came out. A little disappointed that Kuran took 4x3 content and zoomed in to fill a 16x9 image. I understand why and he is definitely the man when it comes to this pristine footage, but I would have preferred it in it's native format. I'm more pissed about Chronos being reformatted than this... And if anyone's interested here's a fascinating but depressing documentary on Bikini. Hard to find. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c14uudVDG8 Edited September 4, 2012 by archosman

Knuckledragger Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Posted September 4, 2012 WTF, Norway? NSWF. There's a whole series of these.
Wmcmanus Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 I can't remember if I posted this before. Irish commentary on Olympic sailing. http://www.thatvideosite.com/v/5852
Wmcmanus Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 ^ The first thing you see is a Redneck Santa and his young lady friend in her rebel flag bikini. But when you look a little closer, you see that they charge admission (wrist tags).
Knuckledragger Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Posted September 4, 2012 Sharp eyes, Wayne. It's almost like you've worked in the industry.
Voltron Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 ^ The first thing you see is a Redneck Santa and his young lady friend in her rebel flag bikini. But when you look a little closer, you see that they charge admission (wrist tags). Why would anyone pay to jump into a diarrhea pond?
nikongod Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 The wrist bands are for drinking, methinks. Not everyone has them on. I am ashamed to admit that I did not see the girl Only Santa.

Wmcmanus Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 Can't vouch for its authenticity. Wonder if it's real... http://www.funnieststuff.net/viewmovie.php?id=2998
