Feat

Link's bomb completely nukes a boulder.

The explosion happens at around the 1:05 mark.

Calculation

Link's sword is 34 px long and the radius of the explosion from the point where the bomb was initially placed is 256 px.

I'll assume 85 cm for Link's sword.

85 cm / 34 * 256 = 640 cm, or .0064 km.

For the airburst formula: Y = ((x/0.28)^3)/1000 Y = yield in megatons x = radius in km

(((.0064/0.28)^3)/1000)/2 = 5.9708455e-9 Megatons of TNT or 2.4982017572e7 Joules, Wall level+.
