While everyone talks about big nuclear explosions, it turns out that there are plenty of small ones, either from small weapons, failed tests that fizzled, or 'safety tests' that went critical.

And yes, it caught my attention that the record for biggest explosion in a movie had an energy content equivalent to about 60 tons of TNT making it 3x bigger than the US W54 warhead on its lowest yield configuration.

Find many more historic films of nuclear tests at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory - great footage, shame they had so many fizzles.
