Considering I'm on the 9th floor, there's no way I'm fighting past everyone else in the building on the stairs lol. Even if I did get out, the highway would be totally jammed by the time I did.

Think I'll raid the fridge for all the sodas, kick my feet up, look out the Eastern window to see if I can spot it approaching, and see how much I can chug before it hits lol.

If I'm the only one who knows, I could probably gun it for the highway in time. If everyone knows, I doubt the roads would be clear enough to even have a chance of making it.

Youd have to be in an underground bunker to survive a missile aimed directly at you.

You could always try to escape.

A quick Google search informs me that your chance of death reaches 50% at about 8km (5mi), if it's a 1 MT bomb.

Radius of instant destruction due to blast?
Radius of radiation poisoning?
20 minutes is 20 miles if you drive at 60 mph. A little more if faster.

Get drunk as fast as possible in those 20 minutes. Climb on to the roof with another bottle of hard alcohol completely naked, fire up the fattest cigar possible, put on sunglasses, blast some hard rock and give it the middle finger with a big smile on my face seconds before it hits.

I live close to a mountain park so I could be on the other side of the mountain in 10 minutes of driving. So unless its a Tsar Bomba or something, could have a reasonable chance of survival.

If everyone knows about it, I would probably throw my bike in the back of my truck to ride the rest of the way if I hit traffic (and bring my gun so if someone tries to steal it, theyre getting capped)

The Sun Is Burning

The sun is burning in the sky
Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
In the park the lazy breeze
Are joining in the flowers, among the trees
And the sun burns in the sky

Now the sun is in the West
Little kids go home to take their rest
And the couples in the park
Are holdin' hands and waitin' for the dark
And the sun is in the West

Now the sun is sinking low
Children playin' know it's time to go

High above a spot appears
A little blossom blooms and then draws near
And the sun is sinking low

Now the sun has come to Earth
Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
Death comes in a blinding flash
Of hellish heat and leaves a smear of ash
And the sun has come to Earth

Now the sun has disappeared
All is darkness, anger, pain and fear
Twisted, sightless wrecks of men
Go groping on their knees and cry in pain
And the sun has disappeared

We are not the sons of God
We are not His chosen people now
We have crossed the path He trod
We will feel the pain of His beginning

Shadow fingers rise above
Iron fingers stab the desert sky
Oh, behold the power of man
On its tower, ready for the fall

Knocking hands together well
Raise a city to build a living hell
Join the race to suicide
Listen for the tolling of the bell

Out of the universe
A strange love is born
Unholy union
Trinity reformed

Yellow sun, its evil twin
In the black, the wings deliver him
We will split our souls within
Atom seed to nuclear dust is riven

Out of the universe
A strange love is born
Unholy union
Trinity reformed

Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns

Bury your morals and bury your dead
Bury your head in the sand
E = mc squared, you can relate
How we made God with our hands

Whatever would Robert have said to his God
About how we made war with the Sun?
E = mc squared, you can relate
How we made God with our hands

All nations are rising
Through acid veils of love and hate
Chain letters of Satan
Uncertainty led us all to this

All nations are rising
Through acid veils of love and hate
Cold fusion and fury

Divide and conquer while ye may
Others preach and others fall and pray
In the bunkers, where we'll die
Where the executioners, they lie

Bombers launch with no recall
Minute warning of the missile fall
Take a look at your last sky
Guessing you won't have the time to cry

Out of the universe
A strange love is born
Unholy union
Trinity reformed

Out of the darkness
Out of the darkness
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns

Holy Father, we have sinned

The biggest current yield in the US arsenal is the B-83. You'll want to be at least 15 kilometers away from it to avoid 3rd degree burns. Optimally you'll want to be 21 kilometers away from it. And you'll want to keep moving to avoid the fallout koffing.

What's the point of even out running it? All your shit will be completely obliterated so you would essentially just be homeless. Not to mention insurance will most likely tell you to fuck off if it's a nuclear bomb, plus there will be so many claims that you won't get much, and your actually stuff won't be insured. Those video games you have been collecting since you were a kid? Gone. Good luck buying all of them again. That fancy tv or expensive consoles/PC you game on? Gone. Sure you will survive, but that's all you will do. Afterwards you won't really be able to live.
