These clips are from shot Grable, the Atomic Cannon test in 1953 showing the initial burst and shockwave. Identified also are the various vehicles on the desert floor which are very, very tiny compared to the fireball of the blast. There are cars, jeeps, buses and tanks under the blast area. I have put a title over a frozen frame to be able to see the positions of the vehicles. Can anyone find the bird?

People Watching Nuclear Bomb Test Explosions
There was always audience when exploding atomic bombs. The video is also high definition. The footage of the Operation Dominic Sunset is especially pretty (0:57), also Dominic Charma (1:26, 1:37). Greenhouse Item is seen twice (0:00, 0:48), Plumbbob Hood (1:13), Upshot-Knothole Grable (0:13), Ranger Able (0:07).
