Obviously, this led to an absolute horrendous situation but fuck me is that quote just awesome. I remember when they used it for a trailer for the reboot of Godzilla and it was also awesome. Cool picture too, op. Thanks!

I want to stick a quick plug in here. One of the best books I have on the development of the Bomb was by Richard Rodes, "The Making of the Atomic Bomb". After reading the book, I look at pictures like this very differently.
