I don't know if Thiele did it on purpose or not, but the way the base/stadium/head shaped it looks a lot like mushroom cloud of an atom bomb, considering Ted's fighter pilot legacy during WWII, it's quite possible this was Thiele's intent as those bombs ended the war, and if so, really?!?! 150,000 people died (estimate) during Hiroshima and Nagasaki, including women and children (half dying on day 1, the rest through long ordeals via side effects, cancer, etc).
Maybe I'm a bit sensitive, but c'mon.
