Yamaguchi: survives a nuke
US: Drops another one

Yamaguchi: "Can you please stop trying to kill me, for *5 fucking minutes?!"*

Weird to think that I technically qualify for this list...I’ve experienced the 1989 San Francisco earthquake (as a baby), the 2011 Tohoku earthquake (living in Tokyo, Japan), and the 2011 Joplin tornado (staying with my mom in Carterville near Joplin after my University brought me home early after the Japan Earthquake).

I wouldn't dare set foot on another ship if I survived a shipwreck once, let alone 3-4 times

In 2016, Bolivian Erwin Tumiri, survived a plane crash that killed 71 people from a Brazilian soccer team and, in 2021, he survived a bus crash that claimed 20 lives.

Long time ago, one of my high school teachers stopped teaching for a moment, and started to brag about how a lot of people around her had horrible misfortunes. Her story was long and weird.. she described how often untimely natural deaths have occurred all around her. Then she said 'maybe it's me?' That was not even close to Halloween, and everyone in the classroom kind of got freaked. Then she said how she always believed she was a Spanish maiden who fell in love with a sailor in her 'PAST LIFE'..(???) Then everyone was like 'What is wrong with this woman?' Watching this video about how some people survived multiple disasters made me think about that woman from the early 90s. Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!!

Anyone who has survived living in SoCal through various fires, earthquakes, droughts and mudslides deserves an honorable mention

Normally, the no. 2 entry - ms. Unsinkable - would be hands down no. 1 surviving 3 shipwrecks. But man, being there for 2 out of the only 2 Atomic Bomb detonations on a populated location is such a very hard "achievement" to top

Death Reaper: I'm taking you today


People from this list : Not today death try harder next time

[TheCommenterDragon]

From what i read, Yamaguchi died of Stomach Cancer and i wouldn't have been surprised if his stomach cancer was caused by the radation from the bombings, because you know the radiation was said to causes diseases like Cancer and Leukemia later on and all that.

Their guardian angels are working over time.

[davidgraham]

the lifeboat was chopped to pieces by the propeller killing everyone on board except her so she survived 3 sinkings

[tenshiangelina]

Yamaguchi fought all his life to be officially recognized as double hibakusha, which seems he achieved. I honestly would be surprised if someone else got 1st place on this list.

[datsapaddlin]

They would make the Top 10 people not to go anywhere with lists too.

I suffered two consecutive Hurricanes, Irma and Maria, a series of earthquakes and now the pandemic. From Puerto Rico.

Fun fact about Violet Jessop: all three ships she was on were sister ships. I believe that Olympic and Titanic were actually built at the same time (or at least close too it).

[davidchism]

Titanic was filmed and distributed by 20TH Century Fox, but due to financial difficulties during filming, had to sell North American distribution to Paramount.

[kaychanpion]

Joseph Joestar survived quite a lot of airplane crashes as well
