Final 3 minutes.

With nuclear war between the US and North Korea that will most likely escalate into a global thermonuclear exchange (Missiles from Russia only take 3 minutes to reach the UK) imminent what do you plan to do with those last 3 minutes?

If I'm at home I'm going to start posting on here to try and be the last person to do so as you guys won't be topping that feat any time soon what with being bombed back to the stone age and all. If I'm at work I'll just walk out and just enjoy my last few minutes of life by seeing how far I can walk before being incinerated.

It's the ultimate 'Quick, to GRcade!' moment.

There's no other option for any true member of this forum.

I'd strip naked and hide in my garage. So long as you aren't wearing any clothes and are inside you're quite likely to survive a nuclear strike that's anything other than a direct hit.

I do live right by Gatwick though so that's probably a key infrastructure target :(

I live about 0.8 miles from The Atomic Weapons Establishment in Aldermaston - where they build and distribute the Trident missiles for our subs.

I'm a strawberry floating goner. It's either they blow it up, or spetznaz soldiers are going to parachute in and ruin my day.

I guess it's because the clothes will melt onto your skin and cause more damage than the actual explosion will already.

I wonder if me being an active swimmer may help me survive?
I'm pretty sure Biggleswade isn't on anyone's target list unless they hate towns without a McDonalds or Cinema and I can maybe avoid any heat issues by swimming underwater at the moment of impact I just have to hope the building doesn't collapse.

Actually, would diving into the sewers be a viable tactic?

Knowing my luck I'll be stuck behind some banana split in a rover doing 30 in the 60 zone when it happens.

On the other hand maybe you'll get lucky and the Russians and Chinese will be so confident the other will target you that nobody will and you'll be the last place left alive. They all you have to do is survive a global nuclear winter that may last 5 to 10 years while trying to avoid radiation.

I think the idea is you remove all your clothing after the blast and get rid because it will be full of radiation.

I'm not sure how effective getting naked in your garage is for surviving the actual blast. Pretty sure you're meant to get in a fridge actually.
