J. Robert Oppenheimer: "I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
The profound moment when science met conscience. Step into the mind of the excellent physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who spoke these haunting words after witnessing the first successful test of the atomic bomb.
Subscribe to Plenilune Pictures: kzhead.info...
In a 1965 television broadcast discussing the aftermath of the Trinity Test, J. Robert Oppenheimer said, "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent." Recalling a verse from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita, where Vishnu assumes his multi-armed form to impress upon the price the gravity of his duty, stating, "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds. I suppose we all thought that, one way or another."
The quote derives from the Bhagavad Gita, an ancient Hindu text containing 700 verses, dating back to the first millennium BCE. The scripture revolves around a conversation between Prince Arjuna and Lord Krishna, an incarnation o the deity Vishnu. Arjuna grapples with reluctance to engage in a concept without an exact English equivalent. At one juncture in the scripture, Arjuna implores Krishna to reveal his divine form, often described as a "multi-armed form."
One translation of this moment in the text portrays what Arjuna witnesses as follows: "If hundreds of thousands of suns rose up at once into the sky, they might resemble the effulgence of the Supreme Person in that universal form."
This vision of the suns going up into the sky helps understand why it may create thoughts of witnessing a nuclear explosion.

Man legit invented not only a city level weapon, but invented the first apology video and did it better than anyone to come after it.
if he made the bomb in 2022 he would be rubbing his head saying "sorry... to the families of the ones that was lost"
Still better than Travis Scott's apology
"guys i am making this video becouse of the things peaple have been saying about me and my last video and i realized that i am become death, the destroyer of worlds"
That’s such a fucked up joke and I love it in every way
Tbf he was director of los alamos, I think his team invented it.
This is not a video of a man apologizing, it is a video of a man who never slept peacefully for the rest of his life.

The best example of “he was so focused on whether he could, he never thought if he should”. Or well, not until it was too late. I respect him for not asking for forgiveness. He probably knew no one could forgive such a thing, it’s literally above any one man’s (or one country’s) pay grade.

After this, Oppenheimer fell into a coma while the two greatest country powers of the moment threatened to destroy each other, and died thinking that he had destroyed the world...

A unique example of a person who changed the whole history of humanity and was able to tell about it. When you think about other inventions, you can just read about it. In the other hand, you have Oppenheimer speaking about the thing that can both rescue and destroy the world
Watching "Oppenheimer" was a depressing experience for me. Even after years of studying history, the moral quandaries and ethical dilemmas felt too impossible to glean any kind of good out of it. When they talked about that worst-case scenario where the entire atmosphere would ignite, I ended up leaving the cinema wishing that that outcome had happened back in 1944 and just made an end of us for good and all. It felt preferable to the present we're currently living in.

“Humans invented the atomic bomb but no mouse would ever build a mouse trap” - Albert Einstein
Now everyone want's to be the 2nd mouse not the first. Why? The 2nd mouse get's the cheese. Edit... My thought process on the statement above. Blah blah blah bomb sad blah MICE 🐭 Me: OMG I love mice,🐭🤗🐭 There are so many cool books from my childhood with mice. Samuel Whiskers, Brambily Hedge. And oh yeah that Terry Prachet book. Oh crap what did the mouse in that book say about war and traps...... Then I wrote the comment. To all the ppl reading the original comment now and want to say something after 3 month's. Please resist. There is no hidden meaning. Just the advice a mouse who I believe was called Dangerous Beans. . . Merry Christmas.
@Ankit Chandola it was a joke mate. But yeah defs radio active cheddar.
Ironic, given that fact that Einstein's research is what lead to the bombs creation. He never expressed any true remorse for this; in fact, he stated on numerous occasions that it was the right thing to do at the time. He was truly evil.
Einstein said this ? He was so smart why did he develop the Atomic Bomb
Maybe because Rats do not have nations with millions of innocent people relying on their armed forces to fight foreign enemies for dominance and peace Seriously nothing against Einstein but what a retarded analogy, Nuclear weapons has ushered in the most peaceful time in humanity since major nations can no longer go in direct conflict with each other
When you see the quote “I am become death” it sounds like someone is becoming a master But when you HEAR the actual man saying it you can see how regretful and ashamed he is for creating something powerful

You can tell that quote truly bothered him. He almost cried when he was about to say it.
Every time I see this quote being used is in the context of someone drunk on power, triumphant, when in reality, it is said with the most defeated, burdened, sad gaze I've ever seen in a man's eyes
Well said!!!
Good point
The quote didn't come from this man though. He's quoting from a book
@@duydo7614 Yeah I know. He quotes from the Hindu sacred text, the Bhagavad-Gita. But the context in which he says this quote is important. Its original meaning is different. The scripture is about a warrior prince, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu. Arjuna seeks advice from Krishna as he is torn if he should go into battle against an army comprised of friends and family, to which Krishna responds - transforming into his collosal true from - with what Oppenheimer is quoting here. But Sanskrit scripture is really tricky to translate, and this isn't the only way to translate it. Kirshna teaches Arjuna the philosophy of Dharma, which is the "holy duty". And the word death, can also be translated into "world-destroying time". It's complicated to explain because you have to get into Hindu beliefs of life and death. It's a whole thing. However the meaning Oppenheimer gives to this quote is a lot more literal. This is another quote from him, after the Trinity Test: "In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatements can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin, and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.” It's obvious the burden he was carrying at seeing his creation be used to eradicate innocent lives.
@@gentlefires Your comment implies that when people use that quote they are often using it wrong, as they aren't using it as Oppenheimer is. However, i merely pointed out that due to Oppenheimer not being the person/thing that originally came up with the quoted referenced, your comment is not valid.
Robert Oppenheimer has been immortalized, but his eyes have long been dead.
Haha im first reply
Bruh that reply tho
@Simping for Tatsumaki lmao stfu weeb
He was a generally a happy guy, too. He and another dude that worked in the Manhattan Project were like polar opposites. Rob was super happy and greeted everyone with a smile while the other dude was like ‘smile and die’
I dont think he realized how many lives he saved. Without him the coldwar would have been ww3 and without him what we think of war would have been so brutal.
One of the reasons you can not call a man neither evil or good
Robert Oppenheimer was a polymath, with interests and knowledge in various fields, including literature, art, philosophy, and Eastern mysticism, which contributed to his unique approach to problem-solving in physics.

Nah bro. Seems like his life is ruined. The atomic bomb was the pinnacle of his achievements. The glory behind it all doesn’t last long, but the guilt behind the killing of hundreds of thousands of people does.
No one can deny the fact that the number of people died in Japan cannot be justified and it's nerve wrecking to think about what those people would have gone through but seeing the extent of the atomic bomb in action, every nation thinks twice to rage a war. In a way, he did end all war in a way. It takes a lot of courage to go through that kind of emotional damage and public humiliation and still take the responsibility of his actions. Respect to Oppenheimer and all the scientists that were passionate enough.

It absolutely can be justified, and to say it can't displays a total misunderstanding of the Japanese empire in that period. The alternative to the nukes was a full on land invasion, which strategists at the time estimated millions of people on both sides would die in. American soldiers, Japanese soldiers, and Japanese civilians. At the time, the Japanese military was training women and children how to make and use improvised weapons such as spears in order to kill as many GIs as possible. The Japanese didn't surrender, ever. They hoped to die for the emperor. They fought to the very last man, and booby trapped their own bodies to take out soldiers after death. Dropping the nukes was the most humane way to end the war. After the first bomb was dropped, there was talk about surrender in the Japanese government. This was met with a full military coup consisting of nearly half of the military, with the purpose of continuing in with the war. Hirohitos unconditional surrender took place secretly, on a secret location, at a secret time, because of this. If you don't think that the nuke was justified, ask yourself why it took a second bomb for them to surrender?

Tbh he wasnt the originator of the bomb. It were the refugee scientists from Europe that had the foresight and saw the consequences of splitting the atom. And they also brought the theory and were instrumental in finding out the way to do it before the Nazi's could. Oppenheimer was a scientist but he wasnt a keyplayer in that aspect of making the bomb. He was the link between the scientists and the brass/politics being able to talk to both... overseeing the project, getting resources, manpower. Etc He did feel some type of way about the bomb though...having doubts. I think he lost his position also cause his criticism..But that bomb would've been build without him also. Sooner or later.

@@sabin97 and though I'm sure it'd be little comfort in the long run his research saved an untold number of lives. A conventional invasion of japan was expected to cost over 2 million AMERICAN lives alone. That's not including the japanese who we all know would not back down in the face of an invasion on their mainland home. Their troop casualties would no doubt eclipse ours by far. Then there's the civilians to consider as well who'd be caught in the line of battle. It's a bitter pill but I honestly believe Oppenheimer saved more lives than he claimed when they made those bombs.
"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds" is what this speech is remembered for, but I think "A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent" is the most chilling part of it. Poor man. I hope he found peace.
He truly belived he had a solution that would have brought peace. And it worked ... Not the way it was intended to work
The fact that people laughed terrifies me
@@SlizMaster Some people like to watch the world burn. Also laughter is caused by surprise a joke is always funniest the first time and being shocked can cause laughter. Imagine working on such advance science in a critical time period and actually solving it I would be dumbfounded.
@@SlizMaster It could've been and very probably was nervous laughter
@@SlizMaster there’s often a weird reaction of laughter where there is no reaction, people are so conflicted with there emotions that they don’t know what to do so their body just tells them to laugh. Not that anything was funny about it but because it was so unfunny they didn’t know what to do.
I feel so bad for this poor man, he sounds so guilty. I cant understand how people look at this guy and think he did not feel a ounce of guilt for what he did. I hope he found peace in heaven.

Well... I got bad news for you: thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/current-time/ As of the 23rd of January 2020 (i.e., before COVID-19 as well as before the end of a bunch of treaties.), The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists' Doomsday Clock has 1⅔ minutes (100 seconds) left to the midnight of human obliteration by annihilation via climate change and/or nuclear war. Last time it got as close to midnight? Never.

Yes, same here. I think youtube is trying to say: The world can become worse.
When he's looking away, it feels like he's imagining in his head all the things that his creation might cause or inspire. Don't think any of us could ever begin to comprehend how it feels. I hope if there is a hereafter, he's aware that the worst has not yet happened.
I will eternally feel sorry for him.

"Now I have become death, Destroyer of Worlds." "shimmy shimmy yay shimmy yay shimmy yay"
It always annoyed me when I hear people quote this as if it were something triumphant. He didn't say this out of pride. He wanted nuclear energy to be used for the better of all nations of the world, not for mindless destruction. These words represented the absolute faith he lost in humanity.
@Peasant Scrublord no, it was in a hindu book. Still fits tho
Peasant Scrublord the original line was from a hindu scripture about a prince questioning if he should go to battle against his friends and the king taught him about time and death and he transformed and said that line.
@Peasant Scrublord It's from the Bhagavad Gita.
He was on the Manhattan project to create the Atomic bomb not nuclear energy.
john tucker I’m wondering if he thought it would be deployed in such a brutal manner, twice on civilian targets in such a brief timespan
he clearly knows what he's created, I can't imagine the mental horror of being "the father of atomic bombs,"

@@stephenmcgreevy9650 There was nothing about technology in the Gita... it was a book of following your moral paths.
@@ripkhanna wasn't Bhagvadgita an account of the passages Vishnu narrated Arjun before the war began?
@@yash1140 , it was in the middle of the war. Arjuna was in a significant moral/ existential crisis as he was about to fight his cousins in the war. His chariot rider was Lord Vishnu in his Lord Krishna Avatar. And when he had this existential crisis, Krishna slowed/paused time and showed Arjuna his "Virata" form i.e the entire Collective consciousness or you can say the Universe. What he recites to Arjuna in that passage is known as Bhagavadgita.
@@yash1140 Yes...

If this is how Oppenheimer feels about having invented the atomic bomb, I feel bad for the person who invented the KZhead comments section

Canyoneer there’s no possible way to destroy Jupiter with our power. Do you even realize how big Jupiter is? Not to mention the guy’s original comment is retarded to begin with.
Worst actor ever. It’s clear he’s reading an idiot sheet or some sort of teleprompter, you can see his eyes darting left and right track the text. Also the script is incredibly lame. “Some people laughed, some people cried”. So you have a joyous and melancholic reaction to the same event. Was the room populated by a group of bipolar disorder patients? It sounds like something made up for a bad 1950’s cheeseball TV melodrama. I don’t believe the reaction went down at all like this, and this “recounting” of events was made up after the event.
