There is one thing I have learned since 2019, and that is the government communicates everything that will happen before it happens.

3 steps that will happen in a nuclear strike:

1. your building turns to dust

2. You're split into millions or even billions of atoms (literally)

3. You'll be extremely lucky if a black silhouette of you is left on the pavement

"You've got this!"

These journalists are hilarious. They really think we’re stupid. Why would they waste everyone’s time sending out a PSA about nuclear attack if there were no real threats of a nuclear attack. Come on now get real. I’m about as tired of the media as I am of our incompetent government.

Well people, it was nice coexisting with you all in this time of existence in human history. Hopefully someone from a 100 years from now sees this comment.

It's not a nuclear attack. It's a "special atomic operation."

[Eric-peki]

I like how the PSA sounds like a commercial for medication or you got the job now you got to go through work place safety material.

[dannyrivera]

Gee I like the way she says don't ask me how or why. Seems to me they know something that we don't.

Preparing for a nuclear attack is like standing behind a wooden door while someone shoots a 50 caliber rifle at you.

[onsons]

Wow, how stupid these people think we are? we all know we are done in few seconds if it does happen.

NYC has a lot of old building 30-50+ years. During a nuclear attack they will all collaps, being inside means certain death.

[Wingedmagician]

How do they expect me not to have a panic attack. Just watching this video feels intolerable itself.

[sircasm]

Average size New York City apartment, 866 sq ft. Their advice, move to the center of your home. 😂😂😂

that psa was idiotic. Getting inside isnt gonna stop you from being vaporized

[ireneparides]

those that were vaccinated will be saved

As we were told in the 60s:
Bend over, and kiss ya a** goodbye ".
Nuclear war survivors hahahahaha

[lrosario]

the only thing I got out of this is this is predictive programming. True, you can’t get ready if you’re already ready, but if you know you know 👁

[normalhuman]

I'm surprised that the PSA for NY wasn't "in the event of a nuclear blast, just identify as a cockroach".

How many people actually saw this and are aware? You know what's going to happen when they see the bright light? They will take smiling selfies and videos not knowing what is happening.
