...a strange question...

There's stock footage everyone's seen of a wooden house being blown to bits during a nuclear test. Does anyone know the name of this footage, or at least able to point me in the right direction?

If it's what I'm thinking of it's the US nuclear tests at Mercury, Nevada from around the early 1950s... I'm in the UK but think the footage I used came from the Kobal Archive which also has US offices.

"Cell Therapy" is the song, and I think you're right.

not sure, but I remember seeing a (hydrogen??) bomb test in that stupid movie "Rodan" that was blown over by the aftershock.
