20 tons of TNT Flanders & Swann Probably written in 60s or 70s Flanders & Swann write “There are three thousand million people living on this earth” The lyrics state that “stocked piled mass destruction of the nuclear powers that be, equals for each man or woman, 20 tons of TNT”
The population since then has at least doubled and no doubt there has been an adjustment in stock piled mass destruction. So for each man or woman, what would be the amount of TNT today?
Just wondering because a soloist sang this at our choir concert
