How to stage a mock nuke blast on live TV
 
this is really cool

Prague - Recently the guerilla-art group Ztohoven caused an "explosion" on the social and media scene with their sophisticated act of Czech TV broadcast intrusion.
The group made it look as if a nuclear explosion had taken place in the village of Černý Důl in the Krkonoše Mountains area while the vieweers had been watching.

Wow.

Let's nuke the Today show. I never watch the show, but today I have it on in the background. I am hearing ridiculous "advice."

This, regarding the economy:

1. Parents shouldn't have to tell their kids that they can't go to Harvard next year because their parents can't afford it.

2. Before next year, people should save up a whole year's living expenses right now. Okay, tell me how you do that exactly on a monthly salary, with prices rising all the time?

On our "lifestyle":

3. Our kids are too stressed out. They're stressed out "for success," and they should go to stress management classes. Um, how about just letting them play more and not worry so much about getting into Harvard. Oh, and kids need coping strategies because the world is a stressful place. Um, no shit!

4. Oh, and the stress is the parents' fault. Do ya think?! How is this news?

here CBS Radio made something similar, but with some two-bit actor narrating a fake news broadcast of an invasion that wasn't happening. everyone thought it was. it was longer ago than what you're talking about.

Critics suspect new weapons were used in Afghanistan

The Uranium Medical Research Centre says: "Independent monitoring of the weapon types and delivery systems indicate that radioactive, toxic uranium alloys and hard-target uranium warheads were being used by the coalition forces."
...
[The UMRC reports], "Without exception, every person donating urine specimens tested positive for uranium internal contamination."
...
Dr Durakovic said he was "stunned" by the results he had found, which are to be published shortly in several scientific journals.

He told BBC News Online: "In Afghanistan there were no oil fires, no pesticides, nobody had been vaccinated - all explanations suggested for the Gulf veterans' condition.
"But people had exactly the same symptoms. I'm certainly not saying Afghanistan was a vast experiment with new uranium weapons. But use your common sense."

depleted uranium has been used in armor piercing rounds for a very long time.

fuck .50 calibres and paveway bombs, I need megatons before I can rule the wasteland.

DEPLETED URANIUM IN BUNKER BOMBS
However, as long as the questions focused on such anti-tank penetrators, they dealt with rounds whose maximum weight was five kilos for a 120mm round. The DU explosive charges in the guided bomb systems used in Afghanistan can weigh as much as one and a half metric tons (as in Raytheon’s Bunker Buster — GBU-28)

Depleted Uranium - Far Worse Than 9/11
Public Health Disaster For The People Of Iraq and Afghanistan


...Marion Falk, a retired chemical physicist who built nuclear bombs for more than 20 years at Lawrence Livermore Lab, was asked if he thought that DU weapons operate in a similar manner as a dirty bomb.
"That's exactly what they are. They fit the description of a dirty bomb in every way."
According to Falk, more than 30 percent of the DU fired from the cannons of U.S. tanks is reduced to particles one-tenth of a micron (one millionth of a meter) in size or smaller on impact. "The larger the bang" the greater the amount of DU that is dispersed into the atmosphere, Falk said. With the larger missiles and bombs, nearly 100 percent of the DU is reduced to radioactive dust particles of the "micron size" or smaller, he said.
