| What Would Happen if....Vancouver Gets Nuked?
...or any where else in the world? As they say on this site, Quote:
Just enter the address of that boss, colleague or loved one. If you can find it in Google Maps, you can nuke it.

Holy shit the damage done by one Tsar Bomb would reach pass Langley if dropped in the heart of the downtown. Crazy ass stuff.

Does anyone know what those different colour indicates? There' no legend. And I'm trying to see what it all means. I mean is that last light orange circle indicate the maximum damage or is there more damage after that circle?
I'm just looking at the "Little Boy" nuke, and although it is pretty damn big for a "bomb", I've always pictured it being more like a Tsar Bomb. Cause when you nuke Vancouver with the "Little Boy", according to the lighter orange circle, it's not really "THAT" much damage, relatively. I always thought the nukes dropped in Japan took out the ENTIRE city, either that, or Vancouver's just a big city relative to Japan cities back in WWII.

But you'd die shortly afterwards from the radiation...
That or the crazies going around looking to eat you.
