Seriously, this bomb is responsible for 25% of the total fallout caused by nuclear testing.

I found this on the site the video came from.
"One second after detonation, the fireball was over 4 miles wide. Despite the high altitude of the test, the fireball swelled down to the Earth’s surface almost licking the ground. The shockwave of the blast almost killed the crew of the Tu-95 that dropped the plane as the fireball almost reached the height of the release plane. Despite cloudy skies, the flash of light was clearly visible 1,600 miles away. The shockwave destroyed buildings and tore roofs off of homes hundreds of miles from ground zero. Windows in Norway and Finland were shattered. The scientific settelment on the Matochkin Strait called Severney, some 35 miles south of the explosion, was devastated. The thermal pulse of the blast was felt 500 miles from the epicenter. Radio communications were knocked out for an hour and no word of the safety of the Tu-95 and its crew could be reported for some time."
The total area the bomb covered was about 40 miles, I think.
