- Explore the possibility of surviving a nuclear explosion and dig into a scientifically supported plan of action in case of a detonation.
--
Nuclear weapons are some of the most powerful tools of destruction on Earth, and the full scope of a nuclear detonation is almost unimaginable. However, there is a scientifically supported plan of action that could save thousands of lives. What is this plan, and what exactly would it protect us from? Brooke Buddemeier and Jessica S. Wieder explore the possibility of surviving nuclear detonation.
Lesson by Brooke Buddemeier and Jessica S. Wieder, directed by Tom Gran & Madeleine Grossi.

Too bad most people don't really use radios anymore, except maybe your grandpa. He might still have one
Me too. Gotta listen to Three dog after the nuclear fallout
how could a radio still work if there isn't any eletricity?

“Remember kids, if the mushroom cloud is bigger than your thumb then you’re in the radiation zone!”
Is that real? I would assume that if you see the cloud you’re in the zone
@@ametsunami4070 if the mushrooms cloud is small that your thumb it mean your in the safe zone to if that is big your dead because of radiation and fallout
Depends on the thumb.
@@ametsunami4070 Nah, it isn't real (theoretically). I just knew that phrase from fallout (kinda). But in a real life scenario, if the heat or the shock wave doesn't kill you, the radiation probably will if you were that close to an atom bomb. But it really depends on the bomb tho
Conveniently I can move my thumb closer to my eye. #siense
They are so good in making animations
It's like VOX when they make videos with the Woccas.

You're from 2022 ?? I can't believe this. I am from the year 2067 and I am seeing comments from 45 years or more in the past.
Haha same tho
Same... Sitting in East Germany, trying to figure out whether the radiation from Ukraine/Russia war would affect us.
@@millyzett Hopefully Putin hasn't completely lost his mind because if he did use even a smaller tactical nuclear weapon it would open a door that we wish was not opened. With any luck he will soon start to feel pressure from within his own country as this drags on. I pray for your safety and for the safety of not only the rest of Europe but for the Russian people and that they will begin to see what he is doing and that they have been deceived.
And here we are, in the middle of covid pandemic for 3 years and on the tipping point of experiencing ww3.

It's interesting, most people probably dont have radio player in their home anymore. Our reliance on one single device for everything (our phone) may have a negative effect in this instance.
Ikr
Also radios are just really neat they can play music talk about news their just really good
@@Sirsimian. so can phones though. Phones are way better and smaller so that’s why he is saying nobody will have a radio.
@@superrooster18 well mate radios are really good fore natural disasters phones will be shut off but radio will still communicate as long as it’s in good condition
@@Sirsimian. ik, but he is saying few people will have radios.

@Euan James-Richards why you lying?
Never thought I'd seriously be looking at these kinds of videos
This video: How to survive a nuclear blast
me, a Fallout 4 player: You know I'm sort of a scientist myself.
🤣🤣🤣
Can we survive a nuclear fallout? Taking the right precautions sure we could. But as once said by Vsauce3 the real question is *would we want to* survive a nuclear fallout.
*WHERE'S FALLOUT 5, BATHESDA*
Someone needs to fight the Terminators
I wouldn't.
You're right..we would probably envy the dead if we do survive. Nuclear winter sounds terrifying. Not to mention the overwhelmed and understaffed hospitals, the famine, and the destruction everywhere around us...
Unless you're in the direct hit zone, that kind of death would not be pleasant so be prepared if at all possible.
If there is an explosion I will just enter my fridge and wait until the blast throws me away from the fallout area.. I've seen it in an Indiana Jones movie and I think it could work
haha! obviously not!
That's not a bad idea unless you run out of air and die inside the refrigerator.....
*B I L L Y*
@@boombam9611 but what if you run out of food and water or it gets spoiled? What if you're claustrophobic, what then will you do?!
*you wanna end up like billy??!?*
lol😂
ah yes lovely time to be recommended this
As ww3 crisis is rising we are coming back to this video...

**The Children of Atom want to know your location**
@@raymarinas2107 far harbor intensifies
*don't be homeless*
Be me, sunlight is only a dream.
I use people as my home
Or just use some other house.
In a situation like this, I would run into the first house whether I know the people or not. In a survival situation like this, you have to go somewhere.
@@Chestnutcow as if they people wouldn't kill a mad person running towards them and trying to break into their house.
Everything mentioned in this video happened to so many innocent people all over the Pacific. French Polynesia, Christmas Island, Marshall Islands, Australia... Did you know the U.S conducted 67 nuclear test in the Marshall Islands, just 1 of them called castle bravo was 1000 stronger then the ones dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that is equivalent to dropping 1 Hiroshima bomb everyday for 12 years. All I ask is that no one else has to go through what we went through, we are living proof of human destruction.
@@thelvadam8916 Did you also know that bikini bottom in Spongebob and bikini the swim suit wear are both named after one of the islands where US conducted nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands.
Yah I knew about castle bravo but thanks anyway (I watched the Vsauce vid)
@@waynekijiner8444 ...at the Bikini Atoll. The "hottest" thing around.
additionnal tips :
- store your cell phones in the microwave oven (or in aluminum foil) in case of a nuclear alert, this will protect them from the electro-magnetic pulse during the detonation of the bomb.
- close every door, window shutter and windows
- seal doors, windows, air vents with a humid cloth to prevent dust from entering your house/room.
- make a stock of drinking water in forecasts for several isolated days or even several weeks. (if you don't have bottles of water and the city water is drinkable, fill your bathtub with water before the explosion)
- if you are safe in your home, if you have plenty of water and food, stay inside as long as you can, until instructed otherwise by the authorities. (even without food, you can survive a long time with only water to drink)
*Can you survive in a basement , would that be stable enough* ???????????
*Don't forget to Cover your vents to your dryer , on top of your home .
Don't forget to turn the electronics off too.
I hope this information is true and that we never need to use it. But it doesn't hurt to be prepared. That being said, it's almost impossible to prepare for something like this but I guess it does something for us mentally/emotionally to feel like there's something we can do. Good luck everybody! See you on the other side
If this advice saves even 1% of people who follow it, it's worth it.
Ahem ahem
Putin: Allow me introduce myself
This is exactly the sane thing my high school English teacher said when we discussed the Cold War in class
You can prepare quite a bit for this. I started prepping about 10 years ago. I have quite a lot for preparation, plus what I have learned in those ten years. Don't worry about it, just do what you can, when you can!
I saw *'Nuclear'* , I had to click *play* .

Second video about nuclear recommended. I got it UA-cam, I’ll get that bunker ready

Just like getting on an active volcano whilst it’s erupting.
I believe the recent threat of nuclear war has brought this to my recommended
5 nukes are going to hit your citiy
Fallout 4 veterans: i like those odds
*Stands right where it is about to land.
Great information given the times.
I am very thankful for the video but really scared of what could happen in the next days
But the real problem is how does society and people in general live after the destruction of the bomb and it’s fallout. It seems that no one really knows how life would be affected to a realistic standard after the fallout
Unbreakable Patches hilarious....
We'll probably kill each other. I mean that's what humans have been doing for the past millions of years, am I right?
Look up how they handled Hiroshima and Nagasaki? I mean, we have two good examples right there.
No one really knows? What about the Japanese? You should learn some history.
Miranda did you know that although the bombs dropped on Japan are to this day the only ones used in a time of war, they were without a doubt some of the smallest with every new design thousands of times more destructive than the next. So we truly don’t have a idea of what it may be like if modern atomic weapons would be used today. Maybe it should be you who should learn some history.
"I've been there like 1km away from the blast, but i want to see the core so i go for it'

Just getting ready for 2022
The UA-cam algorithm knows something I don’t know..
I love Ted-ed for giving such insightful lessons with a unique style of animation every single time! Also, you cannot skip even 1 second of these videos because the videos don't waste a second by saying or showing something unnecessary. I love you Ted-ed💕
I agree except for the sponsor bits, I always skip those. Of course, that isn't irrelevant, though.
Oop- Not me preparing by watching these types of videos. 2022, stay safe y'all 💀
Really anxious about why the algorithm thought I needed to see this today
So we know this information after the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings just after WWII. American researchers learned most Japanese who survived the bombing with little or no side effects were indoors and stayed indoors afterwards. This prompted the "duck and cover" protocols during the Cold War. If you weren't vaporized stay indoors to keep away from the effects of fallout.
*These animations will make your socks **_Fallout!_*
This guy 😅
*_HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA_*
Amazing.
Sorry bob has cancer after going to tell puns autside the vault, give him some stimpaks and radaway
I guess you can say, nuclear atoms live a *Half Life*
This was an excellent way to illustrate this life-saving knowledge. Thank y'all for making this!
Probably a good time to watch these videos because there’s no hope for anyone considering Putin has moved his family into a bunker
Searched this up, because I need to be prepared if in case ww3 happens.
this makes me want to rewatch the Chernobyl series

Hi, I’m a time traveler from September 2076, I sure hope nothing bad is about to happen
Decimate means “to destroy or remove 10% of something”. It was used as a form of punishment by ancient armies. Often used to quash any attempts at rebellion. They would decimate their own army to punish the entire group. 10% of them would be executed.
Anyone else got recommended this in March 2022?
given current circumstances i would bask in the fallout and hope for death I've seen and been through enough already
This video was mind expanding and terrifying all at the same time. Thanks Ted-Ed
The profile picture and the comment are clashing
My God, I'd rather die in the blast rather than surviving the aftermath
Hello there from Ukraine!
June 2022 and getting ready. Thank you for this valuable information 🙏
I get the feeling that this video gets recommended a lot, these days. Touché, algorithm.
The instructions provided by this 5 minute video from the last decade are much better than those from the 1970s British film series of Protect and Survive (out of those 20 films, only the last one, about casualties, is really worth watching in 2022, just in case Russia declares war on us in The Americas). Thanks, Ted Ed!
Well played, algorithm. Well played. #IStandWithUkraine 💙💛
This just made me cry. I just imagined that one day, this can possibly be real.
Before 2020 : seems like fiction
Now : valuable info
The risk has been there for the last seven decades.
Bet this is gonna blow in a few days like major like 3mill views in a few days
I wonder how many views this video had before Putin threatened to nuke everyone…
probably 5
