How can you survive a nuclear explosion?
You can survive a nuclear explosion if you are far enough away from it for the initial heat and blast to have little or no effect on you. You then need to be deep enough underground or in a well-built shelter to avoid the radioactive fallout that would occur for days and weeks after the explosion. If you are far enough away, deep enough into a shelter, and have enough food, water, sanitation, medicine and luck, you would survive. To what end, who knows? But you'd be alive.
How do you die from a nuclear bomb?

Can a human survive an atomic bomb explosion?
Yes, if far enough away and with a fallout shelter to protect from the radiation from fallout that might fall distant from the explosion. If closer then a blast shelter with fallout protection would be required. But all these preparations are expensive so they would not be available to everybody, and even if available quite a few people would not have the time to get to the necessary shelters.

Can you stop nuclear fallout?
Since fallout is created when a nuclear explosion lifts dirt and debris particles into the air and irradiates them, there is no way to 'stop' nuclear fallout from occurring except by never exploding a nuclear weapon on or near the ground. You CAN stop nuclear fallout from reaching you, though, if you have a good strong shelter that is lined with enough dirt or sand (or thick walls and ceilings using many feet of metal and/or concrete), etc.
