AnswerI believe the question is did any one person survive both attacks. If so, then the answer is yes. There is one, officially recognized Survivor of both attacks.

A young engineer named Tsutomu Yamaguchi was just finishing a three month long business trip in the city of Hiroshima. The young oil tanker designer was on his way to the train station to go home when an atomic bomb exploded overhead, throwing him to the ground and burning him badly. He was lucky enough to be evacuated from the city by train the next nay back to his hometown of... Nagasaki.

On August 9th, Yamaguchi was back at work at the Mistubishi plant, his burns covered in bandages, explaining to his coworkers about what had happened in Hiroshima, and how the entire city had been destroyed by a single bomb. His boss began yelling at him telling him he must have sustained brain damage because no bomb was that powerful, and that his story bordered on treason. At that moment the skies over Nagasaki erupted in the second atomic detonation on earth. Though most of the Mitsubishi plant was destroyed, a steel stairwell sheltered Yamaguchi's office and he became the only person to survive both atomic bomb blasts.

Tsutomu Yamaguchi , the luckiest, or perhaps unluckiest, man alive died January 4th, 2009, at the age of 93.
