What to do in a nuclear bomb blast near your place and you survive?

First of all, please tell me how would a survivor know that the blast was nuclear? I don't know whether my question sounds stupid, but after surviving such a blast most of the survivors won't be able to think and figure out whats going around before its too late?


Well cant we assume that the govt will let us know of the doomsday bomb about to strike us. This way, we might have few precious moments to try to safeguard ourselves. ETA for a nuclear missile to reach us is only a few minutes. And it will be difficult to let everyone know in that time.

And if you were very close to ground zero and you did survive — and a lot of folks will — the best thing for you to do is to:

A. Take immediate shelter somewhere, because fallout will rain down on you if you don't.
B. Wait an hour.
C. Then, walk about a half-dozen blocks laterally until you find intact large buildings to shelter you.
Wrong! If you are at ground zero and a nuke explodes over you, the only option you have is to:

Bend down......Put your head between your knees......and kiss your *** goodbye! :P

1. The WORST thing for someone to try to do, in the aftermath of a nuclear explosion that they survive, is to get in a car and drive away.

2. Unless you're within about a third to a half a mile radius of ground zero and the shelter options are poor, the BEST thing for someone to do is to find a stable location inside a well-built apartment or office building — the majority of which will remain standing outside that half mile radius — and stay there for 24 hours.

And if you were very close to ground zero and you did survive — and a lot of folks will — the best thing for you to do is to:

A. Take immediate shelter somewhere, because fallout will rain down on you if you don't.

B. Wait an hour.

C. Then, walk about a half-dozen blocks laterally until you find intact large buildings to shelter you.

3. The electromagnetic pulse from a ground burst will NOT, in fact, knock out all types of communication. Some? Maybe.

4. If you live in a single-family house with thin walls, your chances of surviving in the immediate aftermath of a blast and not getting cancer later are exponentially higher if you seek shelter in a bigger building, even one that might literally be next door.

5. Rescuers should NOT put on radiation protection gear if it will slow them down. So long as the fallout has stopped falling, they're best advised to turn out in their normal gear.

6. Though thousands of people will die from the blast effects, almost all — about 96 percent — of the other potential casualties could be avoided if people understood the basics of what to do in the event of mass radiation exposure.

7. Did I mention that the worst place to be in the immediate aftermath of a nuclear blast is in a car trying to get away? The so-called DFZ — the Dangerous Fallout Zone — will extend out as much as 20 miles, but it is likely to be extremely narrow. (If it's not, that means the concentration of radioactive particles will be lower.) The vector and location of this zone depends on the wind. And its size will shrink with every passing hour.

8. Penetrating trauma from broken glass is probably the largest treatable cadre of blast injuries.

I believed EMP burst kills all electronics.

All depends on Distance and yield of the bomb. Go underground. Close all the windows. Immideately store the water before it contaminants. If you are at an escaping distance, escape. Save yourself.

Today,s bomb is more powerful than 1940s... due to new compression techniques, new tech, achieving maximum output from same product in same size.. It leaves less chance to survive.
Many surviving techniques depends on distance as described by members here.. Real challenge is to save people in other areas too, from after effects. Even from contaminant water, air, river, ocean etc.

I will simply give up...I surrender..I am already tired washing clothes, paying for electricity bill, gas bill, phone bill,internet bill, calling the electrician, fixing the basin, cooking dinner, going to gym,the gigs, doctor's appointment, talking to relatives, answering silly questions like why I am not getting married etc etc..not to mention, my job.After all this, if my city gets nuked,I mean its too much man..If I still survive, I will embrace the mushroom cloud with no regrets....umm do I sound like I need a vacation?
