Hitler Is Appointed Chancellor of Germany (1933)
Hitler's rise to power began long before 1933, with his development of the Nazi party in the early 1920s and the widespread release of his book, Mein Kampf, in 1925. After the Nazi party lost seats in Germany's November 1932 parliamentary elections, leading businessmen and political figures appealed to Germany's president to appoint Hitler chancellor. As chancellor, Hitler quickly moved to eliminate his rivals and consolidate his power.

Hydrogen Bomb Lost in the Ocean (1958)

The Tybee Bomb is a 7,600-lb (3,500-kg) hydrogen bomb containing 400 lb (180 kg) of conventional high explosives and highly enriched uranium. During a simulated combat mission, the B-47 bomber carrying it collided with an F-86 fighter plane and the bomb was jettisoned and lost.

I guess the same happened to the people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August the 6th and 9th, but they had no chance to post it. Though this is an extreme case, in January 1966 the same happened in southern Spain when a B-52 crashed with a KC-135 during refueling over Palomares in Almería. Nobody knows why they [the bombs] did not blow up!!!
The area is still affected by radiation. That´s fact.

Hey folks, none of this is making me feel any better. Up until now, I've been primarily concerned with the meteor that will eventually hit us. Gee, 'ignorance is bliss.'

That´s why we try to keep on topic!!!
But don´t worry: if such a meteor hit us, the off topic issue won´t be an issue anymore!

Well, my legitimate question would be, is there a real danger of these super-weapons being disturb and somehow becoming active.
