"Maybe, but the only lifeforms that can survive a nuclear Holocaust are cockroaches."
That's not true humans can and most likely survive a nuclear holocaust simply bc unless you are caught with in 50 miles of a nuclear bomb or something of that nature you will most likely survive. For how long depends on how much radiation is left in the atmosphere and the full extent of the holocaust.
(EDIT BY: LEFCOJ) fruit flies can withstand up to 100,000 rads! that's 100 times more than a human cockroaches can only survive about 50,000 rads. if you are caught within six miles of the blast radius we will die. but...there is hope if you are about 10 miles from the blast you still want to take procautionary measures(because you might get the fallout!!!!) if you have a basement under or more than six inches below the ground HIDE IN THERE!!!! THAT IS YOUR BEST CHANCE!!!!! radiation can only go six inches under the ground. if you don't have a basement and it is safe to go outside if there is no fallout, wear boots and cover up with warm clothes that you will need to dispose of right after use, because its gonna be cold!!! that's why its called nuclear winter it will be just like winter in Alaska. you will want to dig six inches of the soil in your yard and dispose of it. but you better get a gun because once the blast is over, its gonna be hell. there will be rrobbers and looters trying to steal, or maybe kill you to get your supplies. stay in the safest place with food and water. for more information, go to www.YouTube.com and type in "Protect and Survive Videos" these vids were issued to Britain in the 1970s and80s, when the nuclear threat was very high. so be safe, stock up, and LIVE!!!!!
eventually the cockroaches will die of hunger.
You forgot two major lifeforms that will also survive: most forms of groundworms and waterbears.
I saw an episode of Family Guy that proved that humans can survive a nuclear holocaust. whats up alex
Oh, dude, you're worried about the Twinkies now? Well, technically, Twinkies have a long shelf life due to all the preservatives in them, so they might survive a nuclear blast, but I wouldn't recommend eating them afterwards. Like, who knows what kind of mutant Twinkie you'd be consuming. But hey, if you're into that kind of thing, go for it!
A nuclear bomb contains a radioactive element that is caused to react at a certain time, so technically no.
I have no idea what you are talking about, so I couldn't possibly even guess at an answer.

Hide behind anything cause either you'll be so close you'll die, or you'll survive from the shock wave shattering all windows.
because the bomb was designed to make it so.
The atomic bomb ended the war with Japan quickly and changed modern warfare.
Proliferation of nuclear weapons refers to the spread of nuclear weapons amongst different countries. First the U.S. had a nuclear bomb; then the Soviet Union had a nuclear bomb, followed by other countries such as the United Kingdom, France, China, India, and so on.
No Idea! But I heard they can survive an atomic bomb.
Most people think so.
An atomic bomb is a nuclear weapon. A nuclear fusion bomb, (hydrogen, is usually much stronger than a nuclear fission bomb (uranium or plutonium). The weapons detonated in Japan during WWII measured about 15 kilotons equivalent of TNT. Today, most nuclear weapons are measured by megaton (1000X kiloton) equivalents up to a bomb built by the Russians with a possible yield of 100 megatons.
well the bomb probably didn't and nuclear weapons don't help but nuclear technology has made several things better in industry, medicine and so forth.
