Talk:Alex Mercer vs Lucy/@comment-31961081-20181001172241/@comment-26036704-20181001195638

“Even if alex didn’t tank the full force kf the blast that’s still more rhen enough tonsurcive her island busting attack.”

Just gonna type this again

Even if he was closer he wasn’t point blank on it... which is required for thr full 8 megatons.

also somebody actually did a calc on it here it was

(note: I didn’t do it but i Don’t know who did.)

Radius of the explosion = 5.637km

Mercer was over the center of the bomb since he dropped it from the chopper, which has a top speed of 222mph.

At 5:01 he starts to take off from being over the bomb and flying back to NYC. The bomb catches him at 5:11, that's 10 seconds. 222mph = 99.2429m/s times 10 = 992.429m.

I = (8159621.44 Tons of TNT) / 4π((992.429m)^2) = 0.6593*0.68m^2 = 0.44 tons durability 8-C
