**Title:** Simulated Nuclear Bombing of a Virtual New York City
**Summary:**
* A narrator drops a virtual nuclear bomb on a simulated New York City, where a million villagers were previously given time to build and settle.
* The explosion's devastating effects are observed in real-time, with the narrator providing commentary on the destruction, including:
+ Immediate annihilation of those near the blast site
+ Widespread fires, melting objects, and destruction of buildings
+ A massive shockwave and mushroom cloud
+ Firestorms, black rain, and radiation poisoning affecting survivors
+ Blocked roads and destroyed hospitals hindering rescue efforts
* A small group of survivors bands together, escapes the city, and builds a shelter, but ultimately, most of them succumb to radiation poisoning.
* The simulation ends with the last survivor dying of cancer in a graveyard, providing a bleak conclusion to the experiment.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text, excluding opinions, with each fact numbered and in short sentence form:
**Warning: Some of these facts may be disturbing or graphic in nature, as they relate to a simulated nuclear bomb scenario.**
1. A simulated nuclear bomb is dropped on a virtual village with approximately a million villagers.
2. The villagers were initially unaware of the impending disaster and went about their daily activities.
3. The explosion created a massive wave of light that caused instant destruction.
4. Everything within the blast radius was instantly destroyed, with no survivors in the immediate area.
5. The initial explosion was followed by a massive shockwave that tore apart buildings in its path.
6. Trees within the affected area were first burned and then snapped like toothpicks due to the intense heat and subsequent shockwave.
7. Plastic objects, such as park benches, melted due to the extreme temperatures.
8. Characters within the simulation who looked directly at the explosion were blinded.
9. A mushroom cloud formed after the explosion, pulling in fresh air and exacerbating fires.
10. The influx of oxygen into the affected area added fuel to the fires, causing further destruction.
11. Gas stations within the area blew up, causing additional fires.
12. Roads into the city were completely blocked, preventing potential rescue efforts.
13. Helicopters were unable to land due to the firestorms and mushroom cloud.
14. Survivors (if any) were left without access to medical aid, as hospitals were destroyed.
15. There were no surviving medical personnel to provide aid.
16. Survivors faced a lack of water, electricity, and communication with the outside world.
17. A "black rain" (likely radioactive fallout) infected survivors, posing additional health risks.
18. Some survivors managed to escape the city by working together and finding alternative routes.
19. Despite initial success in escaping, many survivors eventually succumbed to radiation poisoning.
20. The simulation ended with the last surviving character dying from cancer, implied to be a result of radiation exposure.
