There’s a monster hunter international book where they explain it was dropped to destroy a monster gateway. Lol.

Should have just sent Holly in to tell them off.
Tsar Bomba: Is the Tsar Bomba still the most powerful nuclear weapon?
Russia's invasion of Ukraine has led to a sense of panic around the world, with many harbouring memories of the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba and the impact this had back on October 30
www.marca.com
However, the Soviet Union developed three AN602 physics packages at 101.5 megatons (Mt) and these are more powerful than the Tsar Bomba, which was downscaled to 51 Mt before being used RDS-220 Vanya.
The remaining two AN602 packages were used in the 8F117 warheads, and these were set to be placed on top of the UR-500 Gerkules ICBM.
The UR-500 ICBM was successfully tested but never deployed, with it being further developed into the famous Proton rocket.
Therefore, Russia has a weapon that is almost twice as deadly as the Tsar Bomba, as well as an ICBM to use it.
Created yes, utilized not yet.
Rather ironic, the background music for this bomb video, Lux Aeterna, is also ingeniously used in 2001.
Are we in the beginning, or the end?

Russia declassifies footage of 'Tsar Bomba' — the most powerful nuclear bomb in history
The blast was more powerful than 50 million tons of TNT, and was felt hundreds of miles away.
www.livescience.com
"Though the bomb detonated nearly 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) above ground, the resulting shockwave stripped the island as bare and flat as a skating rink. Onlookers saw the flash more than 600 miles (965 km) away, and felt its incredible heat within 160 miles (250 km) of Ground Zero. The bomb's gargantuan mushroom cloud climbed to just below the edge of space."
@NKD I wonder how this jives with the info you added above. I think it's all academic, though... should that thing drop on Raleigh we're all f***ed.
Not sure. Just got the info off NukeMaps website.
Yeah we'd all be effed for sure, lol.

Depends on how close you are.
Personally I’d just shrug it off and go about my day. No biggie.
