A visit to ground zero of the biggest atomic weapon test in Australia. 56 years later we take a look at the wreckage left by Britain's race to become a nuclear super power and keep an eye on our geiger counter while we're at it.
But it's not all mayhem, unless you count that we met up with Rob from the @TheCruisingKiwis and he gives a Troy a few tips on unconventional spear fishing techniques.
