So it's August 6, 1945. Tsutomu Yamaguchi is on a business trip to Hiroshima. He suffers serious burns after the city gets nuked. Spends a day there getting treated, and returns home to Nagasaki right before Nagasaki is nuked.

Now at age 93, Tsutomu Yamaguchi has been listed by the Japanese government as the only known person to survive both nuclear bombings.

He's either incredibly lucky, or incredibly unlucky. All he suffered were burns. No cancer or anything.

War is not a necessity. If only any country would stop producing or purchasing weapons, it might convince neighbouring countries to do the same thing. Next would be the continent, and eventually, whole world?
