C’était quand même impressionnant, du point de vue d'un village à 70 km de l'épicentre et l'onde de choc avait encore assez de puissance pour arriver en rafale de vent.

Ce test a vu la mort de deux personnes, un soldat dont la tranchée s'est effondrée sur lui et une petite fille dont le bâtiment s'est effondré à 65 km.

Regardez bien les key citadin c'est des bombes comme ça qui risquent de vous tomber dessus.

"RDS-37 was detonated at the Semipalatinsk test site on 22 November 1955. Despite this reduction in yield, much of its shock wave was focused back downward at the ground unexpectedly because the weapon detonated under an inversion layer, causing a trench to collapse on a group of soldiers, killing one. It also caused a building in Kurchatov, 65 km (40 mi) away, to collapse killing a young girl.[14] A group of forty two individuals in Kurchatov were also recorded as having been injured from glass fragments caused by the explosion.[15] A scientist in Andrei Sakharov's theoretical lab recalled the test in a collective book of memoirs. He witnessed the RDS-37 test from a viewing station thirty-two kilometers (20 miles) away from the hypocenter. As the countdown reached zero, the first impression he had "was of almost intolerable heat, as if [his head] had been placed into an open oven for several seconds." The shock wave of dust and debris caused by the explosion could be seen and heard approaching and reached the viewing station roughly ninety seconds after the thermonuclear detonation. All viewers were forced to fall down on their faces with their feet pointed toward the explosion to help avoid injury from flying debris. After the shock wave passed, all the viewers stood up and started cheering their success, the Soviet Union became the first to successfully air deliver a two-stage thermonuclear weapon.[2] The measured energy yield of the device was equivalent to that of 1.6 megatons of TNT.[7]"
