WORKOUT DETAILS
The Grand Slam, this 22,000 lb bomb was the largest and most powerful conventional aerial bomb used by either side during the war. It was designed by British Aeronautical Engineer Sir Barnes Wallis, who also created the Bouncing Bomb. The bomb was originally called Tallboy Large until the term Tallboy got into the press and the code name was replaced by "Grand Slam".
WORKOUT FLOW
