== Films == * Footage from a Soviet documentary about the bomb is featured in ''[[Trinity and Beyond]]: The Atomic Bomb Movie'' (Visual Concept Entertainment, 1995), where it is referred to as the ''Russian monster bomb''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/News/VCE.html |title=Trinity and Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie |publisher=Nuclear Weapon Archive |date=15 August 1999}}</ref> The video has a few issues regarding incorrect facts: It states that the ''Tsar Bomba'' project broke the voluntary [[Moratorium (law)|moratorium]] on nuclear tests. In fact, the Soviets had restarted their test program and broken the unilateral voluntary moratorium 30 days before ''Tsar Bomba'', testing 45 times in that month. Since the moratorium was unilateral there was no legal obstacle. The US had declared their own one-year unilateral moratorium on nuclear tests and, as that year had expired, the US had already announced that it considered itself free to resume testing without further notice. Later it was stated that the US had not resumed testing at the time of the ''Tsar Bomba'' test.<ref name="Sherman, Robert 2008">{{cite web |last=Sherman |first=Robert |url=https://fas.org/nuke/control/ctbt/chron1.htm |title=Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Chronology |publisher=[[Federation of American Scientists]] |date=30 May 2008}}</ref> That was incorrect, as the US had in fact tested five times under [[Operation Nougat]] between the USSR's ending of the moratorium on 1 October and the Tsar Bomba test on 30 October. * "World's Biggest Bomb", a 2011 episode of the [[PBS]] documentary series ''[[Secrets of the Dead#Season 10 (2010β2011)|Secrets of the Dead]]'' produced by Blink Films & [[WNET]], chronicles the events leading to the detonations of [[Castle Bravo]] and the Tsar Bomba. * In connection with the celebration of 75 years of nuclear industry, [[Rosatom]] released a declassified Russian language documentary video of the Tsar Bomba test on [[YouTube]] in August 2020.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/security/2020/08/rosatom-releases-previously-classified-documentary-video-50-mt-novaya-zemlya-test |title=Rosatom releases previously classified documentary video of Tsar Bomba nuke test |first=Thomas |last=Nilsen |date=22 August 2020 |access-date=23 August 2020 |publisher=The Barents Observer}}</ref>
