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 weapons are very powerful.
Tsar Bomba (King of bombs) is the nickname for the AN602 hydrogen bomb, the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated on October 30, 1961 over the Mityushikha Bay nuclear testing range, Novaya Zemlya Island in the Arctic Sea. It yielded 50 Megatons, equivalent to 50 million tonnes of TNT, though was originally designed to be a 100 Megaton bomb. Despite it's power, it's use was impractical, since it could not easily be delivered to a far off target area. It was mainly built to display Russia's power during the cold war. A 50MTon bomb detonated at optimal airburst altitude has a blast radius of 60 miles. But I believe the Tzar Bomba was detonated low to minimize damage zone.
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?
tsar bomba
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.
The Tsar Bomba; that was made by the Soviet Union (Russia)
yes, both
no, the only two recorded bombs launched on a country were in ww1
