Nagasaki Bombing Story | Tour around the Hypocenter

What exactly happened after the bomb was dropped? Hiroshima came first. 3 days later, Nagasaki — a plutonium based atomic weapon dropped and detonated at 11:02 destroying Nagasaki and Urakami Valley is also the last atomic weapon used in war. I visited Nagasaki, toured the hypocenter and met with survivors who shared their experience after the bomb was dropped. It’s an important message on the 80th anniversary as first hand voices of survivors gradually leave us. Their message is that we don’t repeat what happened to them.

Thank you to Yokohama-san, Ujihara-san, Mine-san and the good people at Nihon Hidankyo, the survivor’s group for the help to produce this episode. They won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2024 for their work of spreading peace through sharing their experience.
