Would You Survive a Nuclear Bomb?

[Vapin' Joe]

I would just about be outside the effects if the North Koreans hit Fishguard town centre with an airburst device -

Though if the Russians dropped a biggy it would be good night Vienna.

That doesn't bear thinking about. If an A bomb went off over Fishguard there could be as much as a fivers worth of damage.

Imagine how much worse it would be if Pishguard Fishguard was to survive Nuclear war, I mean, I doubt anyone can really tell the difference as it is, so it stands as a terrible warning already!!



Sorry, couldn't resist.

The problem with using Nuclear weapons is the Down wind effect, before deploying even a small weapon you need to decide if it is to be a clean one or a dirty one, then in either case you need to know the weather forecast for at least 3 days. If you get the weather forecast wrong it can be very likely that you might well get your own fallout back if there is a change of wind.

I ventured into SC&P once and survived, so I'd say I'd be fine.

Happily i'm probably close enough to Faslane to be turned to smoke, as this would probably be where the first nuke would hit the uk.

Indeed, we'd be 'The lucky ones' apparently, but, I don't think I really want to be 'lucky', I want to at least see what would happen next

I'm building a fallout shelter just in case

I'd just get in a fridge. If it's good enough for Indiana Jones...

Nearly (or briefly) if the Chinese target GCHQ. Wonder if I can pedal fast enough if I know it's just occurred........ Better get training

Tell me about it. I've had farts like that.

 

[numbnuts]

I think the question should be “would you want to survive after the bomb” the aftermath would be horrendous

That was a lead lined fridge. Great money at scrapping time, when most ended their service lives in the 1970's. As for me, the minute we get to DefCon4 I'm heading for Southern Illinois, and the Shawnee National Forest, and revert to hillbillydom.
