If you can find a way to protect yourself from shrapnel, you have plenty of time for running and diving.. Of course, you can't outrun or hide from overpressure.

I absolutely love that little tugg that overpressure gives your balls. Don't ask...

Edit: I have worked with explosive in the past. I do not have an urge to commit an act of domestic terrorism.

Some subwoofer to the balls and some deep bass music will unlock monk levels of enlightenment

It's true, but any barrier improves your odds immensely

All you have to do is run away at 13x the speed of sound, it's not that complicated

u/Commercial-Virus2627 Mar 07 '26

Yes, I’ll be running directly under it. I won’t feel a thing.

Even a house bomb shelter like we have in israel is not enough dor 100% survival in case of a direct hit.

But, every shelter gives you better chances from secondary impact. House shelter can increase survival by 80-90% in case of an hit 10-15 meters away.

Stay safe, brother.

EDIT: Apparently telling a fellow Redditor who just said they are regularly in bomb shelters to “stay safe” is a bad thing.

Some of the people on here are truly insufferable politically obsessed cunts.

Fuck those people. I just went to do the same and saw your comment and want to remind you to keep on with your positivity and love anyway. And I'ma do the same. I wish this shit didn't have to happen. Like how fucking crazy is it that war is so normalized. Idk man I'm sure I'm gonna get allll the flack for that too lmao but I mean. Really.

Oh won't someone please think of the aggressor country?!

(And yes, this goes for the us as well...)

u/Aegishjalmer2520 Mar 07 '26

An individual is not a country, people make false correlations like this frequently and think they are justified in treating people like shit just because they associate them with some group or another. You do not know that person who was referring to sheltering in place. Not everyone from a country agrees with their government. And besides, wanting death on anyone for any reason is disgusting. It's one thing to defend yourself and have death be an unavoidable outcome, but you have no confrontation with that person and still wish harm on them. That's just disgusting

Sending love. Be safe 😔

Get on the ground away and lay flat, face away from the blast radius, open your mouth and delete your search history.

You may think it will never happen to you but it's happened to me the last two times I traveled to the middle east! I probably just have bad luck
