Hiroshima

I saw three documentaries and all of them were about Hiroshima.

In the first movie, which is embedded, you can feel the fear everybody in Hiroshima felt, you can get angry about what those people (Oppenheimer and the Manhattan project) did, but you won't be able to change the past.



If you want to see it with commentaries, you can click here and see the same but longer film. In this second video, you understand what happened that day and the reason for for doing it.


But that wasn't the end. After the bombing, all there was left in Hiroshima was chaos and debris . In this video you can see what happened to the people after their hometown was destroyed.


But, was that the end? No, it wasn't and the world was getting prepared for the next attempt . In only three seconds, this second bomb killed more than 70, 000 people and more than 80, 000 people suffered diseases caused by radioactivity.

Nowadays, goverments are working on it and trying to avoid another disaster and to protect the world from them.

In my opinion this post is really well done because the videos give you more details about the task and make it more interesting and enjoyable. It is about violence so it is a little bit sad but you should look at it because i'm sure that you will enjoy it
