First of all, it is important to note that many parameters are normally to be expected, including the time of day or night when the bomb explodes, the geographical configuration of the explosion site, the nuclear fallout radius, and whether the bomb explodes on the ground or in the air. But there are no quick fixes when the bomb drops. In the event of a nuclear explosion, the most important thing is to find a good place to hide and stay there with your nuclear attack kit.
If you are in the area that was hit hard by the explosion, your chances of survival are very slim. However, scientists assure you that you have some possibilities to stay alive. First of all, get inside a solid building. This is the first thing you should do, as it will only take a few seconds for the shock wave to travel several kilometres with the explosion. Next, try to get to the basement or, for want of a better word, the centre of your building.[7] This is the best way to protect yourself from the heat and from objects that could be thrown by the blast.
