5 Places where you can survive in event of a Nuclear Holocaust

Nuclear war could be devastating and even contemplating about it is a frightful issue as you just won’t escape resulting radiation. Look what two atom bombs did to Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that was years ago and today nuclear technology has advanced far enough to make ‘little boy’ literally a little atom bomb in terms of modern day nuclear warheads.

But!! On a more positive note, while direct targets may be wiped out, there are places in the world you could be safe in event of an impending nuclear attack. Such areas provide natural sanctuaries against the inevitable nuclear apocalypse. Here are ten places safe from nuclear war.

Easter Island

Lying a thousand some odd miles off the coast of South America, Easter Island is a haven in the Pacific Ocean. The island is famous for its mysterious Moai monolithic statues and lies under the authority of Chile. Easter Island is populated by just 6000 people and is well away from the danger zone so make a rush for it as because it would definitely be every man for himself.

Antarctica

What better place on earth to escape a nuclear holocaust than the icy wasteland of Antarctica. The Antarctic treaty establishes this as a peace zone and you can spend time on the Amundsen –Scott South Pole station which is a facility operated by the USA. You can get to Antarctica from South America or New Zealand.
