Grepper you are correct, yield prediction for Castle Bravo was "only" from 4 to 6 Mt of TNT. Now decommissioned B41 with expected yield 25 Mt TNT was the largest weapon produced by US.
The most powerful explosion in the human history was the Soviet 57 Mt TNT hydrogen bomb. It was detonated over the test site Novaya Zemlya in the Arctic Ocean in a height of 4 km over the land surface. It was 27 ton monster hardly transportable by an airplane.
