Initial fireball size

Have you still been thinking that Hiroshima and Nagasaki are still the worst nuclear warheads ever detonated. Then you are left with the same info. I had an hour ago. The fact is that Tsar Bumba, Russian for "we'll show you" weighing 27000Kg is the worlds most gigantic nuclear bomb ever detonated at the Mityushika Nuclear testing site. It produce a total energy of 50 Megatons of TNT which is 14 times the amount of energy released from both Hiroshima and Nagasaki detonations combined. The impact was so huge that glass window panes of houses nearly 90Km cracked and broke. The Blast radius was 9Km and the smoke rose to a height of 10Km. The image on the right depicts the initial fireball radium comparison.
