Ok, I think the use of George in this thumbnail is your best work yet. Well done.

[Looks like I am not to be trusted. :-) ] Lord knows I wouldn't have wanted to be in Hiroshima or Nagasaki, but "500,000 people about to die" (31:27) is quite off. In fact, the total population of these two cities was under 500K. I am not aware of any study that puts the number of casualties at even half that. (Yeah, I know: "*Only* 200K!") (The common comparison is to the "conventional" bombing of Tokyo five months previously, which resulted in ~100K dead in one night.) For anyone interested in quantifying hell, here's one article: https://thebulletin.org/2020/08/counting-the-dead-at-hiroshima-and-nagasaki/

These two bombs had yields equivalent to 15-20,000 tons of TNT. Some fifteen years later*, the US had thermonuclear (fusion) bombs over 500 times more powerful. (* Under sixty years after Kitty Hawk and the first airplane.) So, who is eagerly awaiting the next breakthrough in physics? :-/ (Hint: advances in biotech are probably much more concerning.)

Indeed, the wider context of the time period has to be considered: by 1945, Imperial Japan had slaughtered an estimated 14-20 million Chinese people (not to mention millions more across Southeast Asia), so 200k Japanese in the target cities barely amounted to a rounding error against the overall carnage of the Pacific War. And it can't be emphasized enough that the atomic bomb saved millions of lives on both sides. At the start of 1945, Japan began implementing a scorched-earth defensive plan named Ketsu Go in anticipation of the coming Allied invasion against Japan's home islands. The plan called for up to 20 million civilians to be thrown into the meat grinder against the invading Allied forces: "every single male age 15 to 60 and every single female age 17 to 40". https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/there-are-no-civilians-japan

When the Bomb Test was Successful, and the People Working on the Project are Joyful and Happy, I truly believe a Few of Them were Celebrating the Fact the Bomb hadn't Consumed the Whole World and They were Still Alive...

I’m enjoying these real life dramas mixed in lately (This, Big Short, Ford V Ferrari, etc) You guys should do JFK
