You wouldn’t suffer any long term effects from the blast at that distance.
You may want to wear sunglasses though

You either want to be close enough for instant death or far enough to be mostly unaffected. The middle ground where you die slowly from cancer or get crushed by debris or something would suck
YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH@infosec.pub 11 months ago
The burns and your body turning into soup from radiation is the real terrible part.
GladiusB@lemmy.world 11 months ago
slush
InfiniWheel@lemmy.one 11 months ago
Well, getting instantly vaporized is safer than getting hit by debris or getting all types of cancer at once.
clb92@feddit.dk 11 months ago
You and I define “safer” differently.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 months ago
If you’re vaporized, bits of you have no chance of hurting anyone else.
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 11 months ago
you have to stay 9 feet away as the shockwave expands. That’s the trick
PopcornTin@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The shockwave will help keep you safe by moving you another 500 away from the epicenter.
Blackmist@feddit.uk 11 months ago
In many different directions.
HopFlop@discuss.tchncs.de 11 months ago
Would that actual save you? Because, I thought the radiation also kills peoples far outside of the shockwave range…
blusterydayve26@midwest.social 11 months ago
That’s the thing: people wouldn’t survive that. The only thing that could survive it is some sort of glassified sand immediately beneath the explosion. So sand dgaf, I guess?

Google’s featured snippet thing is not only a bad feature, it’s actively causing harm. It’s extremely unreliable, but people who aren’t tech literate, which is most people, think “well it’s Google, so it must be right.” Sometimes it’s obviously wrong in a funny way, but more often, it’s doing something like parroting dangerous medical misinformation. To make things worse, it’s very likely to answer a question, which is the search form preferred by the technologically illiterate, with a yes. I would go so far as to say they should be sued for criminal negligence for implementing it.

It’s going to be more and more unreliable as the results it’s snipping from are increasingly machine-generated.
ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
This is true.
But this screenshot is old if even real. I googled it and the snippet was much more realistic and detailed.
DaCrazyJamez@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Yes, but what is the distance from the blast to perfectly cook a frozen pizza?
MeatPilot@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Sometimes you can find instructions for different ways to cook a pizza on the back of the box. For example I checked mine and underneath airfrier instructions there were “nuclear blast”…
Nuclear Blast
Remove pizza from all packaging and shrink wrap. Be sure to remove and discard the cardboard tray.
Place pizza on metal baking tray within a clear path of the blast source. Do not use glass cookware as it might shatter.
About 5 miles out from the blast source. Find a sturdy structure, like a rock deeply embedded into the ground.
Place pizza on the tray and tilt tray to a 45 degree angle on the rock. Angling toward the blast to evenly cook.
Bake for 5secs for 15 kiloton yield atomic bombs or until pizza is golden brown. Grab pizza and run to shelter before the shockwave hits. If the shockwave hits your pizza it will disintegrate.
All atomic bombs cook differently, so be sure to keep an eye on your pizza as it cooks. Pizza is done when the cheese is melted and edges are golden brown.
AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Damn, my nuclear bomb is only 8 kiloton and I never know how to convert.
GreenSkree@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Pretty sure this isn’t real guys. There’s no “Do not thaw pizza” clause.

I was told that when you see a nuclear explosion then you should carefully observe it because you’ll never see anything like it again in your life.

Sarah Connor already told us how to prepare:
“Anybody not wearing two million sunblock is gonna have a real bad day”
Contramuffin@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well for what it’s worth, it didn’t specify that it’s 9 feet from the blast center. If we define the blast by its radius of safety, then staying that distance plus 9 feet will, in fact, keep you safe
init@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
I mean, maybe if it’s a really, really small nuclear explosion

Wait, does it have to be exactly 9 feet?
The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 11 months ago
Of course. An inch in either direction would be extremely dangerous.
MxM111@kbin.social 11 months ago
No. The second option is 9.31 feet.
MxM111@kbin.social 11 months ago
Ok, 9 feet and 3.72 inches.
Kase@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I’m gonna need that in feet and inches my friend. This ain’t the metric system, and I don’t feel like doing math :/

It got confused by all the American measuring units. Probably meant 9 chinchillas.
