In the past 10 years, Bikini's lagoon has become a popular scuba diving spot, due to the marine life and sunken World War II naval vessels. The lagoon contains a larger amount of sea life than usual due to the lack of fishing, including sharks, increasing the fascination with the spot as an adventure spot for divers.

Only few readers will remember my first post ever. It was called 'Boom' and showed a video of the largest H-Bomb ever detonated, the so-called 'Tsar Bomba'. This huge hydrogen bomb is part of an insane Russian/Soviet tradition to build big, big, big, big things. No matter whether the population was starving to death, big prestigious building, ships and bombs had to be constructed to leave a testimonial of Soviet supremacy.
Neatorama has collected seven of the most insane Soviet projects ever. Among them is the 50 Megaton Tsar Bomba, a 335 feet high Palace of the People and the world's largest hydrofoil.
