This has to be one of the most heart rending documentary I’ve watched. These people have been poisoned lied to experimented on Relocated and treated in the most in humane way. I wish I could turn back time so these beautiful people could live their lives the way they have done So for so long it’s truly sickening what has happened to these people and their homeland. My words are easy to write here. There life love and circumstance is as far away from my words as I could ever imagine

Guess where they did the rest of these experiments until the 1990's? The entire United States got an even bigger dose, for longer. Then it was passed around the world because the U.S. is the bread basket of most of the world. Look into what else thesr Molac worshiping elites are up to.

Ever since man discovered fire he has never stopped being a pyromaniac throughout time leading to what we see here. Just the sight of the explosion and how it interacts with the elements as it rises and spreads a shockwave devastating everything in its path is both mesmerizing and absolutely terrifying. How man has used his praised intelligence to shape his destiny by waging war one against the other is disappointing for us who understand the value of human life anf the value of our Earth. We must seem as a very stupid species to aliens watching the shit we do to each other and to our home.

I am not a Bikinian but as a Marshallese myself, I feel for them. Most of the newer generations call them people of Kili rather than Bikini. In fact I thought the people of Enewetak (another atoll in the Marshalls) were the ones relocated from Bikini. These people don’t have a permanent land to call home and soon we all will have just a passport to call home.

My father was in the US Navy at this time. He and his group of sailors were invited to witness a nuclear bomb test from a neighboring island. The " protection" given to them consisted of a pair of sunglasses.

Mantle Cell lymphoma is what your dad died from and my dad died from in 2012. My dad's dad was still running his saddle shop at age 89. My dad's 2nd oldest brother lived until 92 and I believe a botched surgery on the wrong body part ended his life early at 92. So I guess I'm trying to say the men have longevity in my dad's family and in 2012 he died at just 72 years old. He only got 7 short years with his grandson who would almost die from meningitis just months after Dad passed. My dad was a genius. He even participated in a government sponsored think tank for a short time. When mom took Dad to one of his cancer treatments the nurse told her the hospital was robbing them. She said dad had no bone marrow at all in his bones and they were just stealing their money.From the time he found out and he seemed normal, just a few months later he became a dependent, helpless, confused, sick person that I didn't recognize and couldn't hardly stand to be around. I lived 5 hours away and am subservient to a 7 days a week job. I never saw my dad alive again and my sister who did at home hospice for him said he wanted to see me in the month he died in August. I'm so ashamed I didn't go. I should've been there for him more. On the night he died I was videoing my son acting goofy in the kitchen. When I reviewed the video an orb floated around us in the kitchen. I have a shoebox full of those tapes that I recorded my son's life on. Two dozen or so. This is the only tape and only scene where there's an orb floating on the video. It was the night my father died! I'm 100% sure that was his last visit to see Brodey and I before moving onto his next life. Dad didn't spend much time with me growing up as he was always working. But to have seen him with my son Brodey was to witness perfection! The love that they shared was a beautiful thing to see. I raised my son in a single parent household until he was 15 years old after his freshmen year in highschool cut short because Covid hit. The following summer I would become the victim of Cancel Culture and Targeted Parental Alienation from his demonic mother. My son will be 19 years old in a few months. I'm going on my 4th Christmas without so much as a pathetic text from him. I told him everyday of his life I loved him. I busted my ass for him on Christmas providing everything a traditional Christmas day celebration includes. I video taped all of his Christmas's.I can tell you I will never again set up another Christmas tree in my lifetime. I may go to church on Christmas Eve and wish Jesus a happy birthday but other than that Christmas is forever dead to me. I'm sorry to hear about your father and I didn't mean to hijack your post. I've never been able to stop once I start making a comment. It ends up part of my story and that's a selfish thing to do, I apologize. May your father as well as mine RIP.

I am a Koeraean and we live next door to the Marshall Islands and I strongly believe that these nuclear testing should be revisited or reinvestigated for its hidden daimages to those other islands. There have been lots or many Micronesians died from cancerous diseases. The fall out from those testings can travel for miles and miles depending on the direction and the strength of the wind and these testing should be banned for humanity....

The tragedy of the Bikini Atoll is a silent one. A mundane one.

Nobody, today knows this place existed. The people affected are so few the world can't bring itself to care. The people still exists, yet their culture is dying. A culture no one knew existed, a culture no one will miss.

Even the people affected seem to have accepted this to some extent.

Couple of factual errors. The 1949 Soviet bomb was a fission bomb, not a "hydrogen" or fusion bomb. The Castle Bravo bomb was the most powerful bomb up to that time but was far exceeded by the Soviet Tsar bomb at 50Mt

LAYER CAKE.

That's another name for the Russian fission bomb.

Thing is, at the time, as US intelligence had to calculate the yield from seismographic information & atmospheric particle collection, they reasonably but wrongly concluded the Russians had detonated a small hydrogen bomb.

seeknord

The power of the "Tsar-bomb" corresponded to the calculations, the power of Castle Bravo was the result of a misunderstanding of the physics of the process.
Also, Castle Bravo wasn't a «bomb», it was a “device”.

First of all sound does not travel at the speed of light. Very few documentaries about nuclear tests get this right, they always mix in an artificial explosion sound that is not even remotely representative of what such an explosion would sound like. Second, at 14:57 they are inexplicably mixing in a video clip from the Baker shot (the more famous one from Operation Crossroads, exploded from under the water) before returning to the Able videos. (an airdrop)
Either way the horrific fact is that Operation Crossroads happened because of a piss fight between the US Army (then still in control of all nuclear weapons) and the US Navy. (which tried to prove that its fleet was not vulnerable to such weapons) It wasn't even yet about the even more horrific piss fight with the Soviets!

I hate to say it but nuclear testing didn't cause your dad's liver cirrhosis. Although, it very well may have been caused by some chemical they had him working with if he was military or a scientist. Radiation causes a very particular cellular damage and attacks multiple systems by mutating genes. If it had caused his cirrhosis, he would have also been dealing with several other significant maladies simultaneously, not just a failing liver.

I'm truly sorry about your dad. My dad also has non alcoholic liver cirrhosis and it's a very difficult disease to deal with. I work in the medical and despite his doctors knowing that, they still treat him like he's dumb and can't find out the truth of what they're telling him by simply asking me. Healthcare should never be the fight some medical professionals turn it into.

Shows how important it is to choose people who truly care about all life to represent us and make important decisions, if only those in charge had been better men those people would not have suffered. They could have waited till the wind was blowing in the opposite direction as people but they didnt and people died, suffering and not old and satisfied with days. No one should suffer from a choice of another. I want to live in a world where good loving wise men and women of the absolute highest standards Lead.

Have you ever read the book about the beginning of Greenpeace? A small sailing yacht tried to block a French nuclear test. The wind was a problem, the French army had waited for weeks. Then the wind turned and oops, there was that Greenpeace yacht. Time became a problem, they really wanted that test happening. Sometimes, wrong winds really result in stress. Imagine how many ships and how many people are waiting. Then just okay wind could trigger the test. That's how it goes. In the Greenpeace case, they arranged an "accident" and the damaged yacht was towed away. BANG!

@BluesBoy 1955 Honest answer to a good question... No...and Hell no! Scientists aren`t movie stars.. They were more likely Atomic "technicians".

Nah, that bomb contained Lithium. And the scientists disagreed on how Lithium would behave during the explosion. How many neutrons would it give free? The outcome was a surprise, the nuclear reaction was much stronger than expected. Such things happened, those days. But this bang was really dangerous for the men in the bunker close by.

There is a seperate video on that H-bomb that contained a lot of Lithium. They had no idea what the Lithium would do. To their surprise, it had a huge impact. So the men in the measuring bunker were shocked. Six yards of concrete moving, like it was cardboard. Get out of there. And they sent... a helicopter. Great, in highly radioactive dust, they sent a helicopter. Bad idea. How about a truck?

This is yet another group negatively impacted by American arrogance.

Only those at the very tippy top of the military know the true motives of their actions. For most enlisted men, they are lied or misled in believing that what is being done is for some good cause. In many ways they too are victims since many enlist to serve and protect their nations. I’d hate to be one of these men who come to the realization they unknowingly created such suffrage on others.

Growing up in the 80s, we never knew what evil acts are done by world governments on innocent people who don't matter. Everyone matters. Since the internet age we can have knowledge of everything that ever happened past, present or future. I never even heard of the Marshall Islands. Governments are there to govern. They are put in power by the people. Please world governments we only have one home we all share. Our mother earth is our paradise. Why would we want distruction. Earth is home to all living things, innocent animals have just as much right to live as we have people in power need to know that they will be judged. We have beautiful planet earth 🌍 harmony and peace not war,greed or power. Century after century it's the same, humans should have learnt by now. Maybe it's time we did leave and give back the planet to all GODS innocent creatures.

This document has a number of falsities. But there are a number of concepts and facts that are true. The wrecks on Bikini are not 160m deep, they are 50m deep. The Nagato was not in the attack on Pearl Harbour but was in Tokyo. Admiral Yamamoto gave the command to start the attack on Pearl Harbour from the Nagato. There are others but these are a few.

Yes, and they didn't point out what the original targets were--- Kyoto, and Kokura---- Kyoto was spared due to it's cultural aspects, being the old capital--

7:03 'The russians have already detonated a hydrogen bomb.' This was a mis-edit. (and you can see the guy's later comments in the video to verify this)
Operation Crossroads was executed in 1946. Russia detonated Joe-1 (fission weapon) in 1949. Russia's first thermonuclear weapon was tested in 1953, the year after Ivy Mike.

Maybe the editors of this documentary mixed in the guy talking about Operation Castle (1954) instead at the wrong place in this documentary?
Sadly the real reason behind Operation Crossroads in 1946 was a piss fight between the US Army and the Navy. You can look up the actual history.

At see 5:32 mark, immediately after Truman gives the speech about having to drop the bomb - he took a noticeable gulp. Now, couple that with the look on his face you can Cleary see that he was not at all comfortable in that moment. I can't tell if he's uncomfortable with giving thanks to God for allowing him to b o m b millions of people or if he's uncomfortable with the fact that he doesn't personally agree that Japans actions warranted k I l l I N g millions of innocent people...

The bomb was justified and no doubt brought a rapid end to the war and a just payback for the murder of thousand of Chinese and the cruel treatment of the US prisoners who suffer hell at their hands.

The worst evils have been visited on humanity "for the good of mankind". You forgot to mention that on the ships that weren't sunk, there were animals that died agonising deaths so the military could see the effect of radiation on mammalian life. Man's wickedness knows no bounds.
30:44 The beautiful ship, Rainbow Warrior was sunk in Auckland Harbour NZ (a Nuclear-Free, peace-loving country) by agents of the french government (killing one person) to prevent it from protesting the french nuclear testing in the Pacific. How cowardly are the nuclear powers. The USA knew of this murderous plot, but refused to warn its allies, New Zealand, because it was frightened of NZs anti-nuclear stance. How craven is the USA in refusing to take a moral stance on sovereignty.

Japan surredered, but NOT fully.
They kept their emperor as a stipulation to surrender.
Multiple, similar offers to end the war were made by japan, but the US never cared.
After the atomic bombs, japan, again, offered surrender (keeping their emperor).
The US, then, accepted.
Wierd.
The only logic I make of this is that the US knew it was over and they won.
Suddenly, the emperor meant nothing.
