I'm sorry but it's impossible not to acknowledge the fact that this person makes a living from people who are looking to "prepare" for disasters.

So the bias is just too great for this content to be taken seriously. Although I am worried about a possible nuclear escalation, I don't think these sort of doomsayer characters are the ones you should be listening to for warning signs.

Also... dude forgot all the things that happen before launch, like large cities are evacuated, martial law is declared, long distance phone system moves into "emergency mode," etc. Though if you're crazy enough to start a nuclear war, maybe you're crazy enough to not care about having your population annihilated.

I'm fine with someone making a living preparing for nuclear armageddon, but probably came to the same conclusion... can't take this content seriously, but mostly because it seems to be a 5 minute commercial.
