Consider supporting the channel by becoming a Patron www.patreon.com/HeyHistorically KZbin FUN FACT: It was so insanely hard to not get this video demonetized. We had to reupload the video with small adjustments (I kid you not) 14 times! On top of that we had no clue what triggered it, as it was so inconsistent per our testing and KZbin didn't give us any feedback what was wrong with it.... It's actually not so much of a fun fact D:

Corrections: The letter to FDR was actually written by Leo Szilard; Germany never made nukes because Werner Heisenberg calculated the critical mass wrong, and was convinced that nukes are impossible to make.

Ehh, and the map… First Slovak Republic has not borders as they are shown on the map. Czechoslovakia was divided into 4 “lands” - Bohemia, Moravia-Silesia, Slovakia and Carpathian Ruthenia (which is not a very good translation for what they have called now the region, better translation would be Subcarpathian Rus/Russia/Ruthenia). As should all of us know, in 1938 were territories with german-majority within Czechoslovakia were annexed by the Third Reich and were incorporated into its land, but also “lands” Slovakia and Carpathian Ruthenia weren’t untouched - entire “land” of Carpathian Ruthenia was annexed Hungary after of declaration of Republic Carpatho-Ukraine (that happened in 1939), a small bite of Northern Slovakia was annexed by Poland and it took also Zaolzie. In 1939, before the occupation of Czech-Slovakia, (I couldn't find any proper translation so here it is in czech/slovakian, Česko-Slovensko, and yes it was changed from (Second Republic of) Czechoslovakia to that) Slovakian Ultranationalist declared autonomous state within Czechoslovakia, and pushed Czechoslovakian government to quickly recognize it, government it recognized and after that they have changed its name, as I mentioned it earlier. After the occupation, “lands” of leftovers from “lands” of Bohemia and Moravia-Silesia were transformed into the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, and the autonomous Slovak State was given independence. When the Slovak Republic helped the Third Reich to invade Poland, it got back the re-annexed region from Poland, but not Zaolzie. And good to mention, that the Protectorate was a de facto sovereign state, but only on paper, so that you haven’t included the Protectorate on the map is rather your decision than a historical mistake.

[@jakej2680]

Szilard wrote the letter but he asked Einstein to sign it so that they were more likely to get the attention of FDR.

Still leaves our question unanswered though. Did he do it intentionally to waste resources? Or just fail atomic maths-

[@tilleyhat-man6128]

Another factor may have been Telemark, and the raid in the heavy water facility there. Heavy water (D2O) is a poorer neutron regulator, than what other (modern) reactors use graphite, but the British helped the Norwegian resistance bomb the facility, this caused the Germans to think they were getting close with using Heavy water, and thus out more finances into rather than pursuing Graphite.

[@ShieldAre]

The important part of fissionable materials is not that they create just one neutron when split by a neutron, which is what the illustration in the video unwittingly implies, it is that they can create multiple neutrons! This way 1 neutron splitting 1 atom releases for example 3 neutrons, which split 3 atoms releasing 9 neutrons, splitting 9 atoms releasing 27, and so on. The reaction is not just self-prepetuating at a constant rate, it is growing exponentially. Usually many neutrons fly away without reacting, however, so the speed of this growth can be manipulated by the density of the material and the neutrons. The reactions go on, until the neutrons can no longer find enough new fissionable atoms to react with. In nuclear reactors, they do this using absorbing material, for example water. The reaction is allowed to grow slowly until it reaches the desired power output, after which enough absorbing material is added so that 1 reaction on average leads to about 1 new reaction, causing the reactor to keep going, but without dying, or growing too fast, which could cause a meltdown. (Nuclear explosions require special explosive methods to momentarily massive increase the reaction speed, which is why nuclear reactors cannot explode like nuclear bombs) Another possibility is that so much fissionable atoms undergo fission that the density of fissionable material grows too small, so the neutrons can't cause enough new neutrons to be released, and the reaction dies out. Basically, a reactor that runs out of fuel. In nuclear bombs, carefully timed explosions cause the atoms and neutrons to concentrate into an extremely high density sphere, where momentarily an absolutely insane amount of reactions can happen with far fewer neutrons lost before they cause a new reaction. The energy rises extremely high, and atoms gain so much energy that they get flung in every direction, so that the density goes down and the reaction stops. But before that, a lot of reactions have happened in a very short time, releasing an insane amount of energy, with said energy showing itself as a nuclear explosion.

[@user-yj9vw3en5j]

2:43 The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that the product of the standard deviations of particular pairs of measurements such as energy and time or position and momentum must be at least ħ/2. In other words, you cannot measure something perfectly unless you know nothing about another quantity.

[@mikhailryzhov9419]

If splitting a Uranium atom produced only one neutron there would have been no bomb. We call it chain reaction, but it’s actually branching chain reaction, so the number of split nuclei increases exponentially. This allowed nuclear weapons.

[@thatguyoversea]

Goddamn I love this artstyle. It just feels so smooth!

[@megamonster5754]

IS THAT KINO DER TOTEN

[@aaronator4d633]

6:35 another reason is Norwegian commandos and British paratroopers sabotaged the heavy water production plant in Norway which was supplying heavy water to the project which needed heavy water to enrich uranium and which completely halted heavy water production till the end of the war. Another mention goes to the British for helping smuggle Neils Bohr (another giant in the physics) out of occupied Denmark with the Danish Resistance. This lead to Bohr being on the Manhattan Project and contributing massively to the race for the bomb. (Just some additional facts onto why the Germans lost the race to the bomb not trying to undermine the video)

[@caninepals]

Another video, historically you're spoiling us 😂

[@rhetoric5173]

Historically inaccurate. Leo Szilard is the one that realized the immediate danger. He was an acquaintance of Einstein, who was already famous at the time, having no way to contact the President Szilard used Einstein’s fame to have the letter of warning deliver to FDR. The letter was written by both Szilard (who informed Einstein about the danger) and Einstein who provided his signature The letter shows how little was known at the time as they expected the main danger being that tonnes of uranium maybe used to destroy a harbor (by being carried on a ship).

[@WelcomeToDERPLAND]

This video should have mentioned Operation Gunnerside- which sabotaged Germany's heavy water facilities in Norway which basically made it impossible for Germany to ever develop a nuclear bomb- since Germany used un-enriched uranium, meaning they needed heavy water to trigger the nuclear fission needed to create a nuclear bomb.

[@alexsv1938]

You can't make a nuclear bomb out of un-enriched uranium and heavy water, that's a reactor. The reactor could technically breed plutonium for a bomb but the Germans were not really interested in that path like the Americans. They pursued uranium enrichment through centrifuge and electromagnetic separation, plus other methods with less interest. Also, IG Farben had its own heavy water production plant so at no point were the Germans out of heavy water.

A very VERY important thing to note which Historically skipped over; Nazi engineers did in fact dream big ideas for weapons and technology, but more often than not those technologies were either drenched in sudoscience, were unfeasible or were literally there to drain the Nazi government of money by large corporations (the only good time they did that if you ask me). And when some of these projects did actually get past prototyping and got into field testing they were very usually impractical and a stupid idea to begin with.
