  1. I call dibs to use this clip for my Hollywood movies. International skies means whoever calls dibs gets it.

  4. This is a crazy video. Imagine flying close to that.

  5. That transition is due to them being two-stage rockets I’m guessing. An atmospheric exit probably isn’t that abrupt, unless it’s some sort of layer they’re passing through.

  6. I can’t believe how quickly the world collapsed to shit. I wonder if this is how it felt in the 30s when things really started ramping up to WW2

  7. Definitely not the kind of sunrise I’d want to see from my airplane.

  9. *plays “Can You Hear The Music” from Oppenheimer*

  10. Ok, this is like watching a game of Missile Strike in real life. Absolutely terrifying.

  11. Whats that at 1.25 and 1.05, do these rockets have multiple stages?

  12. Duuuuude the footage from this shit is insane already

  13. Insane footage. I didn’t realize they went up that high after launch

  14. I think this is the Iranian regime burning through their BM stockpile as quickly as possible. Might as well inflict maximum damage before going down.

  15. It is both beautiful and chilling. Death chases across the sky…

  18. this is basically what the start of a nuclear war will look like, right?

  19. Jeff Wayne’s War Of The Worlds is rather accurate:

    “And that’s how it was for the next ten ~~nights~~ minutes
    A flare, spurting out from ~~Mars~~ Iran
    Bright ~~green~~ white, drawing a ~~green~~ white mist behind it
    **A beautiful, but somehow disturbing sight**”

  20. And here I am a regular peasant watching this in awe 🫢.

  21. Uhhhhhhhh, this is your captain speaking, uhhhh, if you look to your right you’ll see some, uhhhhhh, Iranian BMs en route to, uuhhh, Israel.

  22. I’d legit be sitting there thinking the nukes of WWIII had just been launched.

  23. What’s their travel time from launch to target here?

  24. Never thought I would see this in my lifetime (movies don’t count), but here we are. Yes Russia had launched some towards Ukraine, but very little and we only had limited impact footage. I suppose for Iran’s current leadership this is “live or die” kind of a situation? But how long the stockpiles will last? And what then?
