The "oops" shot was Castle Bravo- it was supposed to yield 6 megatons but due to miscalculation (read about it on the nuclearweaponarchive) it resulted in an 18 megaton shot. One of my high school shop teachers was in the atmospheric test program and was present. Also met two other weapons engineers when I was in the service (working on nukes) who were present at the same event.

Yours, Mike
