The last survivors of atomic bombs so far.
“Survivors of the atomic bombs WE DROPPED ON THEM”
That sounds a bit sadistic. Who came up with that rule? “Let’s wait until there’s only one of them left, then we’ll listen!”
It means, “listen up, this is your last chance to hear their words, from their mouths.” People have been documenting their thoughts for a long time, but their time is coming to an end.
Yep, John Hersey’s “Hiroshima” scarred me for life (as well it should have) when I read it in 5th grade, especially as a Japanese American whose grandfathers fought on each side of the war.
Atomic People is a heart wrenching watch.
Any way to get it in the US? Saw that its on BBC. Some research saying they aren’t releasing it to the States (yet I guess)
Sadly I’m not surprised this isn’t released in the US…
Here are a couple of links you could try:
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x93ey2g
https://123moviesraw.com/atomic-people/2024/
If neither work, and you can’t find any others looking up “Atomic People watch full online”, my next bet would be to try a VPN.
Yeah, was going to go VPN eventually. However, the dailymotion link works just fine. Thank you!
Perfect!
Not really the last considering both the U.S. and the Soviets had their troops march into the radioactive cloud during tests to see what would happen.
Not to mention there’s got to be at least a handful of the people on pacific islands we screwed over with tests such as Castle Bravo left.
Definitely. A bunch of indigenous Pacific Islanders were exposed, as was a boat full of Japanese fishermen. The latter event was the inspiration for Godzilla.
