57 million megaton
The most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated was the Russian "Tsar Bomba" in 1961. (50 Megatons) It had a yield of 100 megatons of TNT, but was reduced to avoid fallout. People 100 km away would have gotten third degree burns from the heat of the explosion.
Nuclear bombs have the potential to create extremely large explosions, depending on their size and design. The most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, had an explosive yield of about 50 megatons (equivalent to 50 million tons of TNT) and created a blast radius of over 20 miles.
No. Hydrogen Bombs have been detonated that make the atomic bomb look small in comparison. The Atomic Bombs dropped on Japan in WW2 were 25 Kton (equivilent to 25000 tons of dynamite), while H bombs can be as big as several hundred Megaton (million tons of dynamite)
The range of a nuclear explosion can vary greatly depending on the size of the bomb and the environment in which it detonates. For example, a large nuclear bomb like the Tsar Bomba could have a range of over 50 miles for severe destruction, while smaller bombs may have a more limited range. The blast, heat, and radiation effects of a nuclear explosion can cause damage and casualties over a wide area.
The largest nuclear weapon ever tested, the Tsar Bomba by the Soviet Union in 1961, had a blast radius of over 7 miles. The fireball created by the explosion measured around 2 miles in diameter and the shockwave was felt over 400 miles away.
Tsar Bomba by the Soviets
The world's strongest bomb is the Tsar Bomba (AN-602) or the King of Bombs. Tsar Bomba is also known as the King of Bombs. It is a thermonuclear-hydrogen bomb. It was tested in 1961 by the Russians. The original design of the Tsar Bomba was equivalent to 100,000,000 tonnes of TNT, but because there was some technical difficulties detonating 100,000,000 tonnes of TNT, so the design was scaled down to 57,000,000 tonnes of TNT. The explosion is so powerful that it can still give three degree burns from hundreds of kilometers away. The Tsar Bomba is so destructive that there is one and ever will be one of them in history and the world. The radius of the explosion of the Tsar Bomba is approximately 35 kilometers. The largest explosion ever in mankind. The explosion is so devastating that it barely touched the plane that released it. POWERFUL, EH?

no it is a hygeagon bomb
The Tsar Bomba is the nickname given to the Russian A602 hydrogen bomb. It was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated, with the October 30, 1961 test remaining as the most powerful artificial explosion in human history. Its blast yield had an equivalency of 50 to 58 megatons of TNT (or 210 to 240 Petajoules).
The Tsar Bomba, Soviet Union.
The best nuclear bomb is the Tsar bomba
The Tsar Bomba by USSR or Russia.
Tsar Bomba was a hydrogen bomb which was actually detonated and not dropped. The test was held on October 30,1961. Tsar Bomba was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated.
On the island Novaya Zemlya in the USSR above the Arctic Circle in 1961. It was called Tsar Bomba (King of bombs) and had a yield of 52 MTons to 58 MTons, depending on how it was measured. The design (AN602) had a potential yield of 100 MTons, if they had wanted to go all the way.
