The man who survived the explosion of two atomic bombs

On August 6 and 9, 1945, the United States detonated two nuclear bombs over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki respectively. About 90,000 people died as a result of the explosions and the radiation they subsequently caused, according to official figures. In 2009, the Japanese government reported that there was one person who had been in both cities on the days of the explosions and had survived the two atomic attacks.

On August 6, 1945, Tsutomu Yamaguchi was in Hiroshima on a business trip. Here is what he told the British press:

"As I was walking, I heard the sound of an airplane. I looked at the sky and saw a B-29 plane dropping something on its parachutes. I looked up into the sky at them, and suddenly...it was like a flash of ignited magnesium, a strong flash in the sky, and I fell." Fortunately, Yamaguchi managed to survive.
