I though the forum software was supposed to resize big stuff?

A lot of people are forgetting the magnitudes more powerful nuclear weapons tests which occurred much more frequently for decades on end.

That reactor accident (or Chernobyl) ain't go nothing on them.

The National Resources Defense Council estimates the total yield of all nuclear weapons tests between 1945 and 1980 is around 510 megatons (Mt). Countries have exploded the equivalent of 29,000 Hiroshima size weapons in the earth’s atmosphere, a figure that does not account for surface-level, underground, and underwater testing. In Nevada alone, the US has conducted 911 nuclear tests.
See also Chernobyl 25 years later - mostly helped the wildlife and single digit increases in health problems for them

Sulfur hexafluoride, yes? So what's the context of the dive photographer getting sucked into an apparent abyss?
Exactly. As for the diver, supposedly this happened off the coast of Maui due to strong surf breaking overhead and he got out uninjured.
