Interactive map reveals how safe you would be if nuclear bomb hits near you with shocking results

A fascinating map allows you to see how many casualties there would be and what would be a safe distance if a nuclear bomb went off.

With global tensions an all-time high, it's normal to be curious about your potential impending doom and one website lets you see just how f**ked you would be if a nuclear bomb went off... oh goodie.

As macabre the possibility of nuclear annihilation appears, fears surrounding nuclear war are not completely unfounded right now.

It remains unclear how the skirmish between Israel and Iran will play out, despite both sides reportedly agreeing to a ceasefire.

While US President Donald Trump insisted on social media peace will befall both nations, a few hours later he snapped at both nations and argued they don’t know ‘what the f**k they’re doing’.

While Iran is not believed to currently possess nuclear weapons, their allies China and Russia do.

This uncertainty on the global stage has people fearful World War 3 could break out if the US and Iran continue to clash, with professor of atmospheric and oceanic sciences Owen Toon saying the only two places on Earth that would survive a global nuclear war are Australia and New Zealand, since only they could 'sustain agriculture'.

With this fear in mind, one website is likely getting a whole lot more traffic since it shows the potential devastation a nuke could do on any one location.

Designed by Alex Wellerstein, a science and nuclear technology historian, the website NukeMap... well, it does what it says on the tin.

It allows you to pick a location, a warhead yield and even the choice of bomb, picking from those we are aware exist or have existed before. It even highlights the estimated casualty count.

Once you’ve picked all that, click detonate and see how the nuke would play out, split into four radius’ of devastation.

Section 1- Fireball radius

This is known as the fireball radius, and like each section, can vary depending on the yield of the nuclear bomb.

The website explains it as: "Maximum size of the nuclear fireball; relevance to damage on the ground depends on the height of detonation. If it touches the ground, the amount of radioactive fallout is significantly increased. Anything inside the fireball is effectively vaporized."

Section 2 - Moderate blast damage radius

While not immediately vaporized, significant damage and destruction still occurs.

It is described as: "At 5 psi overpressure, most residential buildings collapse, injuries are universal, fatalities are widespread. The chances of a fire starting in commercial and residential damage are high, and buildings so damaged are at high risk of spreading fire.

"Often used as a benchmark for moderate damage in cities."

Section 3 - Thermal radiation radius

While you might believe yourself to be at a safer distance, this still could cause hazardous range if a nuke was to go off.

It is described as: "Third degree burns extend throughout the layers of skin, and are often painless because they destroy the pain nerves. They can cause severe scarring or disablement, and can require amputation."

Section 4 - Light blast damage radius

You stand a better chance of survival in this radius, while still being able to see the explosion.

It is described as: "At around 1 psi overpressure, glass windows can be expected to break. This can cause many injuries in a surrounding population who comes to a window after seeing the flash of a nuclear explosion (which travels faster than the pressure wave).

"Often used as a benchmark for light damage in cities."
