There are many people who believe they can survive a Nuclear War, but in reality it's just psychological Propaganda. Unless you're in an underground, self-sustaining shelter or in a submarine at sea, it's a losing battle from the outset, and even if you're in either one, you can't stay there forever. A limited battle, probably, but multiple high yield detonations will produce quite a bit of Alpha and Beta contamination that will eventually contaminate the food and water supply. We know from experience that the above ground tests conducted many years ago contaminated food sources (e.g., milk with Strontium 90), which is one of the primary reasons that above ground testing was banned as part of the NTBT in 1963.
Even if you survive the initial blasts, long term contamination or radiation exposure will eventually get you. The psychological effects cannot be underestimated either. Many of us in the submarine force, knowing we would likely survive a nuclear war, weren't thrilled at the prospect of surviving, knowing what kind of world would await us.
