[[File:Castle Bravo Blast.jpg|thumb|316px|Nuclear weapon test Bravo (yield 15 Mt) on Bikini Atoll. The test was part of the Operation Castle. The Bravo event was an experimental thermonuclear device surface event.]]'''Castle Bravo''' was a hydrogen bomb test by the Americans during the [[Cold War]] in Bikini Atoll and first of the operation castle nuclear tests.

Initially, the bomb, known as the 'shrimp' device was set to explode at 6000 kilotons, however it was unexpected that the bomb would explode at 15000 kilotons, which is more than twice as expected and also a thousand times more powerful than the atomic bomb that exploded over Hiroshima during [[World War II]].

What makes this deadly is that there was a massive fallout that poisoned Bikini Atoll inhabitants and a Japanese fishing boat, with the people afflicted by radiation sickness, and eventually leading to one of the Japanese fisherman to 

succumb to his illness.

This had caused widespread anger among the Japanese as this is not the first time they had suffered a nuclear attack.

This event also served as the inspiration for the film ''Godzilla'' probably to protest against nuclear weapons testing.
