I work in the nuclear field, and I just wanted to say that this video is EXCEPTIONAL.
The information given is almost spot on what we're trained to do to prevent the spread of contamination.
God forbid we ever have to face this scenario, but I'm glad you guys are putting out such solid, reliable info.
Almost? So what was different?
@@babybluehashyo the video probably doesn't contain all of the information as what is taught in the nuclear field
Prove it. Can’t just make such claims and expect people to believe it.
@Sneakyhub While what you are saying about it being hard to believe ppl these days I understand for sure but I’m afraid you gon have to take the man’s word on it like how tf you expect proof of his work exactly ?

"The survivors (of a nuclear war) would envy the dead." - Nikita Khrushchev
It must never happen, but what can we do about it? Basically nothing.
It must be taken as an opportunity to plant a seed of the new society based on compassion and love for each other, instead of greed and violence. We truly are doomed, but this would be my only reason to survive an apocalypse.
I'll take my chances
Not me. I’m taking over.
So true
In 1971 I was 16 years old at a drive-in theater in northern New Jersey. About 10:00 at night the sky got so bright no one could see the movie. We turned towards New York and saw a great mushroom cloud with an orange ball of light! The entire crowd at the drive-in movie theater stood and waited for the shock +blast surely to come. Being 1971 we were in the middle of the Cold War and fully expected a Russian attack at any moment!
What had happened was a giant gasoline storage tank in Exxon oil refinery blew! The top of the giant tank supposedly was blown 300 ft in the air. Windows were shattered up to 10 miles away. When we counted all the way up to 60 and no one died we all realized it wasn't a nuclear attack. But for those 60 Seconds, you can imagine our thoughts! True story, ask anyone from the area in that era!
That was actually Dec. 6, 1970.
WoW!!! Holy cow that was probably Soooo intense!!!
My family lives one town over and told me about this since I was born about 15yrs after this happened. They thought the worst as well.
Are you talking about the Drive in theatre in Warwick, NY
Crazy story mate. I'm glad you all are alive to help us understand that well made point. It's a crazy idea to have to phathom, but that story eloquently put it in perspective. Last 60 seconds. I would have died by my thoughts alone 😩😩🥺
“The nuclear arms race is like two sworn enemies standing waist deep in gasoline, one with three matches, the other with five.” - Carl Sagan
Non of us would survive nobody could do this to our buitifull planet make peace it's not 1939 no nukes its 2023 thousand of them
It's all stupidity it could throw us into a ice age send Trump no war
As an 80s child, I find it very disturbing that we are watching 'informertials' showing us how to survive a nuclear attack. Again.
*To be fair this **_is_** the **_Infographics Show_*
The introduction of nuclear weaponry made it clear as day that a complete annhiliation of humanity wasn't a question of "if" anymore, but rather "when". No human with a rationally functioning brain could've honestly expected those in possession of these WMDs to be responsible to begin with. It's only a question of time until those weapons are put to use.
*Fallout theme music starts*
Yeah it's better for people to be uninformed and ill prepared for disaster... Because it makes you uncomfortable to face reality lol. Evil, violence, and weapons of great destruction will always exist. It doesn't have to be nukes. Knowledge is power. Power is survival, or at least increased probability.
Infomercial*
As a Cold War kid, I asked my dad ( military) why they had us tuck our head under our desk during a nuclear drill. He told me "So all the ashes are in one spot. If you can see the blast, your too close and won't make it" His words stuck with me, so never moved to a city as an adult
I saw an actual photo shown to me by the man who took it, of the atom bomb explosion near Christmas Island in Australia in the fifties. Ray Ward was a member of the RAN aboard a ship that you can research yourself. I met him whilst working at Groote Eylandt manganese mine, the photo was a huge mushroom and I mean huge. He took the photo. He told me that the entire crew was on board and were told to turn their backs until they felt the pressure wave pass then look. He took a photo that should be in a museum. ... yes, they are more powerful now but still.....
I’d rather die in the initial blast than live through a nuclear apocalypse.
@@tamara_diamonds422 city living will keep you broke. Not that country people necessarily have a lot of money laying around either but there is far less expense (other than fuel to drive further to work) depending on where you live, maybe start with trying to find a small lot somewhere to buy first, then tiny house ..just a suggestion, I wish you well in getting out of the city
I definitely need to get out of the city.
Lol! Hardcire
The most overlooked problem is a ventilation. It's nice to seal your windows with a duck-tape, but you still need to breath for a week. This depends heavily on number of people inside, and volume of your shelter. You can't just seal air-tight (or even close to air-tight) your house. Also the ventilation, or outside air conditioning might be still running and pulling irradiated dust inside your shelter. Having water is important, but having air is more important.
maybe having lots of plants help a bit
@@alf3071 Plants consume oxygen as well, but they do generate net oxygen. But it depends on leaf illumination. During nuclear apocalypse sun won't be exactly in abundance. So the plants will actually consume more oxygen than generate.
I worked in HVAC, the outdoor portion of your a/c, otherwise known as the compressor unit, does not pull air from outside, it compresses the freon in your system and pushes it through a "choke-pont" inside the line, converting the liquid freon into vapor, and in the process causing it to cool rapidly. Think of any time a compressed can of anything, when rapidly decompressed cools extremely fast and even freezes. Anyway, this vaporized freon is then moving through the coils of the indoor unit, otherwise known as the air handler, and the blower of the air handler pulls your indoor air through the indoor filter and blows your now cooled indoor air, through the vents. Do with this information, what you will. That's the most basic rundown of what's going on, and how it works the air. That says nothing about the control system, electrical components, thermostats....I'm out. Peace be with you
@@AcornEmbrio Agreed, but consider that in Europe people mostly just window without any ventilation, or have just air vents, only rarely they have HVAC. In US this might be probably less of an issue for most of the people. Still unaccounted ventilation might prove to be a unforeseen problem. I, for example, have an air vent that is going from my bathroom directly up to the roof. It's good to know these things and act on them, otherwise you risk contamination. That was my point, windows are one thing, but not a whole picture. It's good to have this solved beforehand, or at least be aware of air flow in your particular house. In a panic, you might not be able to think about such things. Of course I hope, this won't be needed. Ever.
N95 masks. They are everything
I have many relatives that live in southern Utah. Many died of cancer because of the fallout from the nuclear tests in Nevada in the 50's. The ground is still radioactive. Not nearly as much,but it still is.
Bro I live in Ogden Utah.
@@hyperv1016 Too far north for radiation. I was born in Mt Pleasant. Family in Provo, Ogden, American Fork, Spanish Fork, Summit, Cedar City and Saint George. Lost many from Summit, Cedar and St George.
Is it even possible for your family to sue? That’s crazy.
It's still radoactive because they did underground tests, and that contaminates for centuries. Furthermore they did several hundreds tests in that area if I recall well.
@@Dick_Trady Tests that caused the fallout were done above ground and the winds carried the fallout to southern Utah !
my wife and I had a discussion about this situation a while ago. She wanted us to die in the blast instead of suffering the horror afterwards. (And the long and painful death from radiation poisoning.) At first I was kind of shocked, but honestly I kind of have to agree that life will not be good for those that survive the initial stages of a nuclear holocaust. Dying in the blast would be a mercy.
I myself have decided that if fate is kind to me I will be one of the first to die from a nuclear blast. I see how animalistic our culture has become and don't want to try to comprehend the brutality that will come from trying to survive what will be left to us. FOR WHAT?
Yikes........ That is honestly pathetic. Not to be mean but it is. It shows how weak humans have become.
Get it over with. Get a smoke and a can of beer
I completely agree. Ever watch ‘threads’?
But Japan stayed a better place for the survivors after a double A attack. So you never know.
If you’re going to shower and this is very very important! Do not under any circumstances use conditioner! It will bond the radiation to you! DONT USE CONDITIONER!!
I've always told myself that I would accept my fate, but wouldn't accept it without a fight.
Even if you make it, you'll have to survive raider drug addicts, ghouls and death claws.
LOL the first time I took rad-x, I got addicted. Was so mad.
Nuka cola
You forgot to mention one important thing in this video. if that ever happens look out for other people because they will turn violent and scavenge what they can. so you should probably have weapons with you as well to protect your stuff and yourself.
COMPLETELY TRUE AND THE MOST TERRIFYING
Yep. The girl in the thumbnail would regret she chose that outfit.
I need you help, he says that you should use a shirt that is wet. How would you avoid like breathing in or drinking the contaminated water that captured the radiation molecules. I’m pretty dumb sorry.
actually in disaster situations people will generally co-operate, we're a social species, the violent raider myth is just the capitalist media twisting peacefully grabbing supplies from stores into violent looting because of a few broken windows.
I feel as though most people won't be too dangerous, being most definitely sick with radiation and the like
*Fun fact:* There are two TV movies from the 1980s called "The Day After" and "Threads", which accurately depict what life would be like during a nuclear winter. Those two movies are so disturbing and depressing that they make you think that taking refuge in a bunker is like getting into a radioactive chamber, as both things only serve to give you a long and painful death. Believe me, surviving a nuclear war is something no one should be proud of, as all you get out of it is a life worse than death.
Threads is even worse. That movie makes The Day After look tame in comparison.
I bet your a great drunk at places with beer bongs. "Bro dont6yoj think we could die of alcohol poisoning or even more likely., drowning?"
@@Dayman90 I watched it and it changed my whole point of view completely! I wish every leader of a country owning nuclear weapons would have to watch this movie before getting access to the nuclear arsenal
@@Blaubeerschorle If Putin watched "Threads", I am sure his reaction would be this:
"OH NO...Anyway" *Pushes nuclear button*
@@derrekvanee4567 I bet all your friends must think you're so cool
Thanks for the info and the nonchalant way of planting a seed in our minds. That we may need to actually know this information one day. Its no surprise to me the amount of people living with anxiety these days.
This is perfect information given for what our world is going through right now… pretty sure this scenario isn’t that far off
I wish the situation weren't so bad that we have to see videos like this.
You don`t have to see them,and they`re nonsense anyway.😁😆😅🤣😂
The situation is not so bad. Stop watching msm.
this is what the government wants you to be scared of, so they can do whatever they want if the time comes. they knew of the taliban threatening American before 9/11 but did nothing to stop it. we have a weak leader, and hes letting anyone come into our country. there have been 42 suspected terrorists caught coming into America since he took office. now imagine how many more people made it through? they could be slowly gathering materials to make a nuclear weapon. these people are not afraid to die to please their leaders. if its built here in America, nobody would even know before its too late
Mutually assured destruction is a great preventative measure. Let's hope and pray cooler heads prevail amongst world leaders. Most of them have family and children too.
@@a-dutch-z7351 hopefully senses come to all the world leaders
I'll never understand humanity. We allow a few individuals to have this level of control over are species. There is no reason to have weapons like this. When will humanity stand up as one and demand the end of this. What greatness we as a species could reach if we stopped racism, hunger and disease all working together as one.
The world ISNT in an of itself "evil" it's just a REALLY, really big inanimate object in space with an unfathomable amount of living things on it. An NEITHER is humanity as a whole inherently one way or the other either. MOST off what both of you advocate am say is speculation or just not possible. At least not likely to ever happen probably even in our grandchildrens life times an definitely not ours. The closest thing we can hope for best case scenario is to peacefully more or less coexist to varying extents an have plenty of plans an provisions for the many, MANY things of every conceivable scenario that can an will go on an go from there.
Exactly, it's like we're just trying to wipe out the human race by hand. We are going to be the main cause for our extinction and it's just sad. Who really wins in these wars anyways? There's no winners in war, violence and destruction is the only outcome.
I agree with you on the part that it doesn't make sense for some individuals to have so much power. A society should be able to think for themselves.
Nuclear weapon or not, humanity is headed for enormous trouble. Short sightedness is endemic to humanity.
Because access to nuclear weapons for only a few individuals is safer than access to them by everyone. The best (and impossible) way is if no one had nuclear weaponry
I appreciate the video. Yet, it shows life as usual - water and electricity available, calm and friendly people around, having plenty of spare cloths in the office you got trapped in, having water and food for 2weeks, having bags, having duck tapes, having shops normally selling water and food and ppl behaving normally, and banks workig so that you can use the credit card...
I think it would mainly be a total chaos, total pain, many of bad and worse choices, like if you let in somebody highly exposed, like if you immediately go to fight into the supermarket for water and food, you may need to fight for your shelter, seek help, protect your animals, go searching for your kids or parents...
Dang bro love your videos. You seem to paint what could happen or what have happened very clearly. 👍🏼
It's not a nuclear attack. It's a "special atomic offensive."
Won't be laughing when you burst into flames and your eyes melt out of your head.
😂
@Tony Putin, is that you?
@Tony Atomic = Nuclear. H bomb = thermonuclear
@Tony in American term Special military operation doesn’t require a bunch of regiments and battalions. L
I have had dreams just about everynight for a couple weeks about surviving a Nuclear attack and just walking through the post apocalyptic wasteland and it is so terrifying.
I've had a dream about my city getting bombed before, It's scary af
Do your dreams usually come true?
Да, that has been a recurring nightmare for me.. that and SCP-001 when day breaks
Whow! You must think of nuclear war a lot to dream of it always.
I had a dream about a nuke doomsday but a bit weirder because the survivors were talking cars but i got something in that dream that was deep because on a part the cars found a big truck thar also lived but he had a crisis because he shouted questions about what is his purpose or company , that part means that without any people and surviving a world wide catastrophe one would feel lost since your life as you know ended.
I'm 70 and went through these short " infomercials" when i was 10 in the Cuban missile crisis. It was in the news and papers, many believed it was going to happen. Fallout shelter signs everywhere even if they were not real shelters , a placebo shelter, basements, old buildings.
My father was in charge of a large portion of nuclear arms as a military commander in the US Army years ago. He always said that if you see mushroom clouds rising, run towards them. You don’t want to survive the initial blast.
Right.i have always thought why would anyone want to survive a nuclear blast to now live in a radioactive wasteland.
That's idiotic. If you see mushroom clouds, you've already survived the initial blast. The only thing you'll accomplish by going towards them is increasing the chance of encountering fallout... and acute radiation syndrome is NOT the way you want to go out - it's long and slow and horrible.
The US Air Force is in charge of ICBM force on land in the US. What part was your Dad in charge of?
Most people will survive and won’t be affected. They also won’t be living in a wasteland. If you have enough food and water, and can survive the first 3-6 months, you can check the land for safety, grow your own food, and get together with other survivors and live on!
Lol. Everyone will probably die! You have not a clue the damage a Nuclear will have. If you would survive they won’t be able to survive the after effects
I remember as a kid in the early
1960s having school drills in preparation for the day this happened. In our locker each student had a jar of peanut butter, a wool blanket and a can of HiC. We lined up in the halls facing the walls with our heads tucked between our knees and arms above our head. What scares me the most today however is the very poor leadership which Americans have elected to office. American leaders of the 1960s were far more competent.
Neat
School drills are against gun attacks now.
The dude wasn't elected. Also the kids of the 60s is apart of the reason of why we have such terrible politicians
A waste of time and I figured it out in 5th grade school.

10 miles from MacDill Tampa FL..we don't have to worry about what is after the flash...and that is the way we want it.

It is a doomsday machine not to be used.
I hope that this never happens, peace for all the countries...love from Egypt
Amen. Thank you. Love from the US
Agreed. It’s sad most of us in the world are just civilians trying to just live our lives, and those lives are at stake for the whims of powerful people whose motives we typically don’t even care much about or have anything to do with.
Nice bedtime story! Goodnight y’all ☺️
it's freaking horror living in a nuclear war
How disturbingly sad that this is what we are doing, because we the people don't actually have a say in what happens to us. We depend on the choices of some who, if or when this were to happen, will be safely ducked away with their families with all the comforts and provisions necessary. This is the perfect example for us that they really don't care about us, as long as they are getting THEIR point across to their enemies. I didn't ask for this and neither did you. So how fair is it that we should have to end up dealing with the full scope of it. This makes me so angry 😡
All Putin has to do is stop invading and leave Ukraine and it's over.
That's why you vote for someone competent and presidential, not Trump or DeSantis. Romney is an example of a Republican that would be fine. 🙂

Yes, it does.
I grew up in a house with 1 of 2 fallout shelters in my state. Our childhood home was owned by a doomsday prepper before we moved in which meant it was crazy cool. We had a secondary basement with a full sized blast door that is airtight. The door weighs a lot. There's also lots of air filtration systems.
Lucky you. What's your address by the way?
Fantastic!
I hope you (whoever lived there in 2019-20) prepped well before the Covid fun.
I thought preppers were silly until I saw why they do it in South Africa, and American preppers saying that even a blackout could lead to troubles.
Then 2020 happened and we all learned a lot.
"Fun" in this case being boring and death and loneliness. So, not at all fun.

Really!!!
Never assume help is coming always assume the worst and don't attract attention even from other survivors as you don't know their intentions.
Help is coming ... sure , sure. Let's Go Brandon, FJB !!
Good observation, reminiscent of the scenario in The Day Of The Triffids.
Man, sometimes I wonder if it's worse to be a survivor or an insant fatality in this situation.
EMP isn’t as catastrophic as this makes out for modern electronics - because it is shielded for RFI protection.
Surge arrestors are now standard fittings in most mains connected systems for lighting protection.
The blast and thermal effects would be a bigger problem.
I watched a TV movie back in 1984 called "The Day After"...possibly the best depiction of a nuclear attack. Coincidentally, our air raid sirens went on due to a glitch and rang for hours. The fear I had was unreal...
If you think that was the best depiction, try watching "Threads" from here in the UK, The Day After was a soap opera compared to Threads...
@@twocvbloke thanks for the recommendation!
Is this just coincidence that this was in 1984?

Hey,
over the last months I did a lot of research about this topic and I came to the conclusion that I wouldn´t even want to survive such an attack because of what is happening after (food crisis, temperature drops, destroyed society etc.)
Everyone should decide on his own If he wants to survive, but in my opinion living the life after a nuclear war isn´t worth it.
Just hoping it doesn´t happen
dont be a coward brother
Imagine if everyone on earth decided death was better than perseverance. Yikes.
I’ll have to survive

Be a coward. Leave the supplies for the ones who will survive😂👍🏼
Thank uu❤❤ taking notes
One bad piece of advice.... heading to a major airport. Those are targets. Any place a bomber can use as a makeshift base will be targeted in an all-out attack. Some of the other advice and weapons effects depend on the size of the weapon. Early on it was thought bigger is better, but it was realized that multiple 300-500 kiloton weapons were more effective that one larger weapon.
Also, water can get contaminated with fallout particles, but the water itself won't be contaminated. Simply running it through a water filter (even a makeshift diy one) will render it drinkable (if not spoiled from some other contamination .... don't drink pond water unless properly filtered/boiled).
Boiling water will become the norm for people who don't want dysentery. You don't know who is upstream using the water source as a toilet. It ends up being like the european middle ages again where people drank only beer and wine because all the water sources were contaminated.
@@anonydun82fgoog35 only drinking beer or wine?.... bring on the apocalypse!!!
I hope humanity takes all measures to insure nuclear devastation never happens. But probably not
It has done so this far. Even if madmen are in power, people down the command chain have the cognizance to not go ahead with this extinction-level order.
I feel 99 percent of the world understands the reprocussions of using a nuke but all it needs is one psychopath.
Sad thing is as long as nuclear weapons exist there is a 100% chance they will be used, on a long enough timescale. I'm a good 75 miles from the closest target. And prevailing winds push fallout away from us. We will have a couple days at least before radioactive clouds hit here from the southwest.
Ensure*
There is a video on the internet that gives a time lapse of every nuclear explosion that has ever occured on the planet. Watch the sped up version, it's spooky
Knowing what I do about nuclear fission inside the core of a bomb states that : The greater the yield is inversely proportional to the decay of fissile elements, while the opposite is true. If this were a "Strategic Attack" , the yield would be very high, while the fallout stage would not cause as much damage, the doctrine being to wipe out a city of millions with the blast wave while decay happens quicker, causing less after effects. This is why The Japanese attacks in WW2 were so devastating:Fat Man and Little Boy were of little yield, comparatively speaking. But the fallout was decidedly much deadlier, being a "Tactical" attack. A great idea for an Infographics episode, Strategic vs. tactical nuclear strikes.
Thx mate, good to know 😃
"The greater the yield is inversely proportional to the decay of fissile elements, while the opposite is true." This makes no sense... you'd have to have more before the period.
The japanese attacks weren't that devastating.
Also fallout isn't the stuff that comes from the fissile material. It is debris and dirt that are irradiated and thrown into the atmosphere. Radiation doesn't just magically get emitted and then disappears.
How are you this bad at everything? You pretty much were wrong on all points.
@@haraldzimmermann3274 He was wrong about almost everything he said.
I grew up in the '70s and '80s, and then spent 20 years in the Air Force (now ret.); as much as I would _like_ to complain (complaining is fun), *this vid actually did an excellent job of covering things accurately!* ❤ (Only one nitpick: prevailing winds would dictate the direction of the fallout for 300-1000 miles, they don't simply spread out in every direction; in the case of the U.S., that means broadly from the northwest to down toward Texas, and then broadly upward toward New York [other countries and continents have their own local typical wind patterns].)
Never said anything about iodine pills......
@@camsavvva6102 Nope 😞 (though they do get mentioned in another video... "Would you survive a nuclear war?"or some title to that effect).
I liked the fallout reference of putting on a pip-boy,mate! He knows a way to joke during seriousness.
They forgot to mention the importance of potassium iodide or potassium iodate to protect the thyroid during the first 48 hours after the nuclear blast. If you can acquire some of this, or have it on hand already, you will increase your chances of survival.
Tell me more please
@@robbrown3941 too late
@@robbrown3941 Your Thyroid, which controls your body's hormones, needs Iodine to function. It is particularly sensitive to radioactive isotopes of Iodine that might exist after a nuclear explosion. Radioactive Iodine would cause thyroid cancer; your body's hormonal system would stop working if you don't die from the quickly spreading thyroid cancer first.
Consuming properly sealed iodide supplements would ensure that your thyroid had all the Iodine necessary to function, therefore it would not absorb the contaminated Iodine present after a nuclear attack.
or something like that I think
Dulse flakes and apple pectin as well. Apple sauce. Too
I just checked my local Natural Grocers and they have plenty.
2 minutes in. I'm so glad there are thousands of these! Hurrah! Thanks, scientists who made them.
I remember learning in another video that if you have time, when the flash goes off….not only should you look away and cover your eyes, but open your mouth. I think this helps to prevent the ear drums from being blown out by the enormous blast. If anyone knows more about this, I’d love to hear comments! Thanks.
Yes that’s correct because the shockwave is so powerful that it can shatter your eardrums and opening your mouth keeps a significant amount of that pressure from affecting your eardrums. But if you’re close enough to the shockwave for your eardrums to rupture then say hello to a long and brutal death from radiation poisoning either way 😢😢😢
That makes sense, when you consider what happens when your ears pop when you are taking off or landing on a plane. If you yawn or open your mouth wide it makes them feel better
Your correct
Plug your ears with your thumb cover your eyes with your index fingers and open your mouth.
Plugging ears will prevent blown ear drums covering eyes will prevent blindness opening mouth will prevent the pressure wave from collapsing your lungs.
😳👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Thank You for current tutorial!
Well detailed and educational with a cool soft voice that narrates every possible doomsday scenario in chilling detail, that's why the inforgraphic show is mind blowing and here to stay no matter what. The level of detail and information is phenomenal and very detailed.
I need you help, he says that you should use a shirt that is wet. How would you avoid like breathing in or drinking the contaminated water that captured the radiation molecules. I’m pretty dumb sorry.
No it is usually a bunch of wrong information that they pulled from random different places on the internet and checked nothing to make sure it is actually correct. It is just enough info that slow normies just listen and believe because it seems slick and well put together so that means it must be facts to NPCs like you.
A drawback to making your (hopefully), well stocked shelter visible to 1st responders it also makes it visible to looters/the unprepared.
right, if you're visible, you're not safe
The correct attitude in my opinion is to assume that no help is coming. I AM the help. I have to do things for myself and hopefully can help others - expecting some of them to want to hang around with me out of gratitude. If you sit around being a victim waiting for help well then yes, you will be a victim.
Small devices will probably not get destroyed by the EMP. Energy absorbed is proportional to the size of the conductors and pretty much all electronics have devices inside to protect against voltage surges. They are not put there for EMPs but for static discharges from people/things but it's basically the same effect.
dont forget about the part where we stock up on fire arms and weapons to use against looters
This is literally my worst nightmare, to be honest I wouldn’t want to live through that if it were to happen. Perhaps the centre of the blast is more merciful 😟
its not a bad way to die tbh in the explosion/fireball. Instantly just inside millions of degrees of fire. Your just vaporized instantly.
your country did it to Japan
@@miminorka i was literally just saying it would be scary mate. Last time i checked i dont work for the high up military. 💀‼️
@@vertica.l right, i get it now imagine this all is happening to you, and the country that did it is your own country
brought to Japan by the freedom forces of the US
Now this is life saving man thanks for the useful tips and facts dude, good stuff keep it up
There is no life saving with nuclear war. Stage one is the bombings, if you make it past that stage 2 is the radiation, if you make it past that stage 3 is nuclear winter, which no one survives. The warmest place on earth would be south of South America and Africa which would be at 0 degrees for 1-2 years.
I'd like to see a follow up video diving into the safest materials and practices for the first ~72 hrs
Honestly,if it does come to this "nuclear war" I'm not scared of it,but I hope and pray to God I can hold my wife tight in her arms and go together! With that said,why can't we all just get along?? Who cares if USA can beat CHINA OR RUSSIA?? We as humans only live once so why can't we just make the best of it?? God Bless us all!
What I've learned.... Better to be right in the blast than any other area
From my understanding, if a nuclear attack were to happen. It would devastate the infrastructure to the extent to where help would not be on the way.
As stated in the video, that would depend on the extent of the nuclear attack. A full-scale nuclear exchange between the U.S. and Russia would be much more catastrophic than a terrorist detonating a single nuclear bomb, with the latter situation having a good chance of outside assistance.
Good clear helpful, actionable info.
The most important video anyone can watch right here. You should have 7 BILLION VIEWS!
I was going to say your first step when a nuke goes off if you're indoors is to fill your bath, but you beat me to it.
All the earlier advice to wash yourself off seems a little odd in the absence of the later suggestion to conserve water...
One thing I don't think you mentioned - if the shockwave hasn't hit yet, get the heck away from any windows. Getting hit with a face full of shattered glass will HURT. Opening your windows first would be ideal, but there probably won't be time; if you're 10km away from the explosion, that's only about 30 seconds before the shock wave hits.
Washing the radioactive dust off….
Buy a water bob to put in your tub and fill it up. They hold 100 gal & are a one time use.
All of the world leaders who threaten the use of nuclear weapons should watch these videos. They probably wouldn't give a care though.
Agree with you .
I have watched Threads. Most terrifying thing I’ve ever watched with heart pounding as soon as that blast hit.
They will be hunkered down in their bunkers with several years supply of everything they need. The rich have luxury bunkers if they get enough warning to reach them and their security people let them in.
You mentioned water in the distribution system will be safe from contamination until the surface water source is contaminated. Fact is, the water treatment plants will not be in operation hence the water in the distribution system will be isolated and if not open to atmosphere, will be relatively safe.
Also, the bombs dropped in Japan were approximately 15KiloTon bombs. Nowadays, the standard unit of measurement is in the MegaTon range so radiation levels wouldn’t return to normal for possibly 1,000’s of years.
Excellent bring it on.
I just realized that i don't want to be a survivor. I can survive. The parts that scare is that i don't know how far away from the closest city. I live in a village, luckily, but still. Putin, please don't press that red button
Depending on wind direction, when a Nuke goes off with a extended arm , thumb 👍up if thumb covers mushroom 🍄cloud you should be ok
depending on the accuracy of the missile meant for a military target or a city . If it goes mildly off target like some of the current russian missiles seem to be doing in Ukraine and raining down on russian power plants., your village might not be as safe as it otherwise could be.
I used to teach a similar class for the military. Obviously our equipment was different but the basic information is correct.
50s: dunk and cover whenever you were doing stop
Today: everything
According to those who have suffered through diabolical testing , accidents and war events it's so quick you couldn't out run it and the damage arises over time blindness at a few weeks and terminal cancers decades after , the land is radioactive and uninhabitable even when foliage returns deformities are standard in all life forms and communities are advised not to go to the danger zones .
I remember the movie "The Day After". When the nuke detonates, a woman washing dishes drops a fork and is instantly vaporized before the fork hit the floor. That scene had a big impact on me.
The makers were forced to dilute and weaken it for tv.
Dont make your shelter too conspicuous bc you can be sure clans of looters will be on the prowl. Actually don't make your shelter visible to govt agencies either as they'll force you to give them your supplies if they do manage to find you. You and whoever is with you are on your own
I need you help, he says that you should use a shirt that is wet. How would you avoid like breathing in or drinking the contaminated water that captured the radiation molecules. I’m pretty dumb sorry. But you seem smart
Very informative.
The BBC's Threads is a docu drama that shows the full horror of a limited exchange. The scariest film ever made
Tell this video to the guy who survived BOTH bombs in Japan!
Yes he survived BOTH of them!
I met a Hiroshima survivor. She was in an archive and injured by racks of ledgers collapsing on her, and protecting her.
how old is she now?
@@aquaticluv9842 She passed away about 10-15 years ago as a retired elementary teacher, and later a college professor. She had returned to Japan for secondary education before the war broke out and was forced to work at a Railroad company offices. She was ethnic Japanese but discriminated against as an American citizen.
@@tomfrazier1103 aw she seems like an awesome person, sorry for your loss.
Sounds good but in reality, just like losing a parent, no matter how much you think you're prepared or ready, it's nearly impossible to be. And very few would make it. I know that for me, I don't want to be dying slowly in agony for days or weeks. I know I wouldn't make it so really I would hope it goes off right over me.
This is awesome thanks.
Not going to lie. If a nuke did go off, I would rather die than live through the irradiated nightmare that would ensue, or if I did live pray I lived nowhere near the blast zone.
Wouldn’t matter, once nuclear winter starts a few weeks after you’ll be gone too just like everyone else.
Hats off to the duct tape seller, man was chilling in a radioactive fallout 🤣🤣
As a child of the 1960's my whole life has had nuclear war as a very possible "end of the world" threat hanging over our heads. I've been waiting for the end of the world my whole life.
I liked the part where the cartoon people came out of their shelter after 7 days and then strolled down to the store to pick up lots of water.
I grew up right in the middle of two primary targets. The Umatilla Weapons Depot (nerve gas) and the Hanford Nuclear Reservation (plutonium). I expected to die quick. I'll take instant death over a long slow death from radiation.
Once the EBS sounds the alert for MIRVs inbound, I will drive as close as I can to a military base (which is 10 minutes away from me), park my car, place a portable folding chair on the roof, sit on the chair, put on my shades, pop open a can of beer, and hope that the base was targeted with a high-yield warhead. A second before I get vaporized, I will thank God with a smile on my face.
Very informative
As a teenager in the late 70's early 80's this worry was a fact of life. I thought we had moved past the threat that we as kids had to put in the back of our teenage minds, going on with our normal lives but also low key knowing it was always there.
So NOW it's once again Global Thermonuclear
War FEAR 2.0.💔 🥺....
only now we have kids & grandkids for an added splash of terror to the mix. Praying that what we all believed, for a wonderful few years, our comfortable happy world doesn't go completely MAD.
tp be honest it never went away. I served on Trident missile capable, nuclear powered submarine USS Florida SSBN-728, from 1999 to 2002 (and then on nuclear powered fast attack submarine USS Asheville SSN-758, 2002-2003).
It's not classified that our main mission was "strategic deterrence" because the other side never stopped sending their boats out. Of course, at any given time, I can never confirm nor deny the presence of a nuclear warhead on the boat at that time. Florida has since been converted to SSGN (conventional tomahawk missiles replacing the Trident missile capability).
The difference was that when the Soviet Union fell, Russia was not as overtly hostile as the USSR was...but still isn't our friend and neither is China. But yeah we have been on a hair trigger against both the whole time. You can't really have a non-hair trigger if you want the ability to retaliate and stop further attacks. And now we have added possibility of non-state actors (terrorists) as well as India and Pakistan.
I never liked it, I wanted a fast attack submarine. It would be best if all the nuclear powers sat down and agreed to disable all nuclear arms in a short amount of time, within one Presidential Administration...but it's hard to see it happening 😞
"Ground" nukes are used for taking out bunkers and missle silos. For the US, most of these are concentrated around the mid-west and Washington DC. If you live generally around or to the east of these areas, you should remain indoors much longer.
They are also used to destroy agriculture with fallout
I bought a geiger counter. I'll stay in until that comes down.
At 28, I consider myself lucky to have my own fallout shelter and a 100KL tank of drinking water with shock and radiation protection. It has been seven years.
Where do you live?
@@canadianmistake2640 123 none of your business street
@@LexiLunarpaw LOL
Hahaha 🤣
Wusup friend member me?
This is good advice if there was such a thing as Nuclear Weapons 😏
In school in the 60s we told how to get under chairs and my great grandfather chief Dan said that there will be a third of the shaking of the earth we were always told of this growing up
Driving out of the city doesn't seem an option with destroyed or clogged streets from debris. Love your videos.
This is great info for sure, but also you have to take into account of the not so trustworthy civilians in the event of a nuclear war, even during hurricane katrina people were acting like society collapsed and looted and pillaged nearby houses and businesses. Make sure you are able to defend yourself from either foreign or domestic threats and learn escape routes out of the city that aren’t major roads. And i would also use this info for natural disasters too since katrina proved this one
Yeah but look at who those people were doing that looting
But all they needed to do is to put a bed in front of the painted-white windows...I love this movie. No BS treatment of a one megaton nuke detonating.
There's an old movie with Gregory Peck in it and it is called "On the Beach" and it is about nuclear winter, what people don't realize is that the nuclear radiation will circle the world. That's part of the story of this movie, as they wait on the beach in Australia, thinking they've escaped it.
In a nuclear world war there is no safe place anywhere! That humans and animals survive at all is highly unlikely !
