Thanks for posting this Fatty.
There are an inordinate number of threats against commercial aviation and this is just one, although very scary with its' potential. I personally am even more concerned about the RF threat especially since the Soviets had the portable transmitters and they worked beautifully. Just imagine parking off the departure end of a major airport's active runway and "shooting" a newer generation B-757, 777, Airbus A-380 as it passes 1,000' over Boston, New York, SFO, etc. No noise, no blast, no signal...just an aircraft with virtually all of it's computers neutralized. Think about that one. BTW, for those concerned about his being posted on the Internet, the entire instruction book for making the bomb that Ramzi Yousef used on Phillipine Airlines Flt # 454 was posted on the net years ago complete with part numbers and how to order the components.:eek: G'Day Mates Apparently he's heard rumors of a large scale EMP test that Russia did and the results were spectacular. I wonder if the trusty Maddog would continue flying? -Fatty |

Why is this crap even posted. It should be viewed as a threat to national security and removed the minute it shows up on the internet. There is no practical use for this video.
I am not complaining about posting it here but the fact that video ever made it to the public is horrible. |

The reason stuff like this isn't "removed" from the internet....or why we're not screened using public transportation...is because we live in America and not the Soviet Union or North Korea or Germany of the NSDAP. |
I'm calling BS. Fugly? YGBSM!
First, there are lots of breaks in the video. We don't know that the drop they showed is actually what they used. Why mix up that much just to use a drop? They used it all. Second, the guy in camouflage lighting it was a nice touch to make it look "official". Except that the Army doesn't wear the old jungle camo any more. Setup? Third, if it was this easy to use and procure, planes would be dropping out of the sky. |
Joe, I too noticed the woodland BDUs on the dude in the video...and also wondered why they mixed up so much yet only used a single drop. Noooooooo, they'd never do that for the purpose of over-dramatizing the explosive yield..
Could have changed the words at the end to read "Nuclear weapons although rare on todays world black market...should we be worried?" FEAR! OBEY! (and I'm no primary English teacher, but the grammar in that video is AWFUL) |

Where does it say in the video that this is a US military member? Perhaps this video is from overseas which might explain the bad grammar, poor music, and odd clothing. I'm skeptic too, but your arguments hold no water. -Fatty |

First off, I will say that I too was very surprised when I saw the video. It is hard to believe. But what evidence do we have to suggest that it isn't?

If it's even possible, that yield would be at the outer limit of conventional explosive chemistry. There ARE hard-and-fast energy limits...that's why they invented the a-bomb, because chemistry wouldn't go much farther. In addition to pushing the boundaries of the start-of-the-art, they ALSO Made it in a convenient binary form, suitable for field-expedient use. AND made it just sensitive enough to light with a match, but not so sensitive that it blows up when you mix it :rolleyes: You can build an airplane that goes Mach 3+ You can build one with a MGTOW > 1 Million Lbs. You can build one with a 40-hour endurance. But it would be pretty hard to build one that could do all three. Yeah Right... |
