The thing was only supposed to be 6 megatons but ended up being about 15 and it gave off insane amounts of fallout.

The plane taking that footage was over 60 miles away from the explosion.

At least it created Spongebob. So theres that.

Castle Bravo was the direct inspiration for Godzilla as well.

Or rather the fallout reaching a Japanese fishing vessel was.

This was like Jurassic Park levels of not being in control. The blast radius was two and a half times what they thought it would be and the winds, which they didn't account for, carried nuclear fallout further than they could have anticipated.

Contaminated fish were sold at market. Many got sick. And, eventually, a few people died from it.
