Rosatom releases previously classified documentary video of Tsar Bomba nuke test
Watching this film, if you turn off the narrator, you see the same guys as our guys, doing their jobs, making the same preparations (down to the anti-flash white paint on the aircraft), executing the same commands -- all just normal people who were caught up in a terrible arms race.   Some of them out of duty, others out of ambition.<p>Makes you think about how, in the age where technological achievement can so quickly outpace the control of individuals, yet also relies on those same individuals to make it happen -- how important it will be for us to somehow find a way for the people at the top to not lead everyone else down a wrong path.<p>It&#x27;s no profoundly new sentiment, but in some ways we need to overcome our caveman instincts when we&#x27;re stocked with nuclear weapons.
