Chelyabinsk is much like Russia's Oak Ridge, a huge part of their nuclear complex is based there.
Most of the videos you see on YouTube include people shouting, wondering if a war had just started. Chelyabinsk is one of the first places we would attack if WW3 ever started (Gary Powers was shot down trying to fly over it, for example) . There's a video of the inside of a school and teachers are losing their minds, they think the end of the world has come. There's some blood curdling true fear and horror in some of those videos.
More than anything, that's my lasting impression of this. I hope someday we don't have an event like this that doesn't bring the fear of nuclear holocaust with it, no matter how briefly.
