Tolkien would still find a way to drag that out to an entire novel. There would be an entire chapter describing the explosion.
NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

And Hollywood would turn that chapter into three movies
"The Lord of the Rings: Shockwave"
"The Lord of the Rings: Mushroom Cloud"
"The Lord of the Rings: Nuclear Winter"
Chapter 1: The eagles nuke Mt Doom from orbit. It was the only way to be sure. The End
We've had one, yes
but what about second LGM-118A Peacekeeper MIRV?
for good measure
That still counts as one
Chapter 1: The eagles drop the ring into Mt Doom. The End
Chapter 2: jk the ring corrupted the eagles
Chapter 1
Eagles get the ring. Eagles fly to Mordor. Eagles get shot down because Mordor has the best air defense system in Middle Earth. Sauron has the the ring and throws a Eagle BBQ party to celebrate. The end.
Chapter 1:
Eagles get the ring
Chapter 23:
Ongoing diplomacy between Rivendell and the Eagle King about whether the eagles can be used to fly offensively into Mordor or only defensively within "Free Peoples" space, and whether carrying the ring to the Eastern marches of Gondor is proscribed as too provocative.
Well, it was stupid not to forge a ring for eagles, and ents, and maiar, etc.
Now eagles with the ring have air superiority and can use powerful cloaca lasers to wipe out anything.
Cloaca lasers? I block it with my anal shield.
Omg why is it so shinny and polished?!??
Beautiful.
