Note-All myths should be tested at nuclear Bomb test grounds and all myths should be viewed via video camera. We don't want any mythbusters suffering from radiation sickness. Name of Myth: Terminator Nuke Reenactment History/Background of the Myth: In the movie Terminator 2, there is a scene called Sarah's Nightmare, where Sarah and some daycare children, along with a large city, gets destroyed by an H Bomb. The scene was deleted but is shown on the DVD of the movie. Some people believe that there are problems with the scene. Hypothesis of the Test: 1 Sarah is too far away from the blast to get her skinincineratedto the bone. 2 If Sarah's skin was destroyed, her skeleton should have also. 3 The blast should have instantly killed all the citizens close to the blast, Sarah shouldn't have been able to survive for 30 seconds before the Bomb finally kills her. 4 Sarah should have gotten blinded by staring at the blast, the flash has been reported to melt the eyes out of people, according to victims of Hiroshima Atomic bombing. 5 A large city should have some kind of anti nuclear defenses, especially during a time of war. 6 The city would have had some warning before the Bomb hit. Ideal MythBuster(s) to Conduct the Test: Any, just stay away from nuclear blasts. Best Method to Conduct the Test: Send materials to the nuclear testing facility and instruct them on what to do. Determine the estimated distance between ground zero and the location ...

Fidel Castro likened Hurricane Gustav's destruction in Cuba to an Atomic explosion, saying Wednesday it could mean billions of dollars in losses for the communist government. Video images of the devastation on Cuba's Isla de la Juventud reminded Castro of "the desolation I saw when I visited Hiroshima, which was the victim of an attack of the first Atomic Bomb in August 1945," the ailing former president wrote in a column carried in government news media. Gustav reached Category 4 strength with winds of 140 mph (220 kph) when it slammed into the outlying island on Saturday, then crossed a tobacco-rich swath of the western province of Pinar del Rio on mainland Cuba before re-entering the Gulf of Mexico and continuing to the U.S. Gustav's winds were down to about 110 mph (175 kph) by the time its center hit Louisiana two days later. Cuban authorities evacuated 467,000 people ahead of the storm and reported only 19 injuries and no deaths. ...
