The damage from a nuclear bomb depends upon how close you are to the point of detonation and the yield of the bomb. For a 1 Megaton bomb, the immediate effects are:
- Instantaneous death: 2.5 Km
- Immediate immersion in whole-body fire: 10 Km
- Third degree burns: 12 Km
- Second degree burns: 15 Km
- First degree burns: 19 Km
There are also intermediate term effects due to radiation exposure, and long term effects due to radioactive fallout.
