>Tsutomu Tamaguchi, an engineer with Mitsubishi, was on a business trip to Hiroshima when the bomb was dropped on August 6th. He had been walking to the train station about 1.5 miles from ground zero. He suffered ruptured eardrums, radiation burns, temporary blindness, and numerous body injuries. He managed to find his colleagues Akira Iwanaga and Kuniyoshi Sato, who had also survived, and they spent the night in an air raid shelter. He managed to return with them to his hometown, received medical attention for his injuries, and returned from his trip to work at his office on August 9th. He was trying to explain to his boss what happened in Hiroshima, but his boss could not believe that one bomb could destroy a whole city, and Japanese authorities had suppressed the news to avoid destroying morale. As he was arguing with his boss at the office -- in Nagasaki -- the second bomb was dropped about 2 miles away, and Tsutomu saw the flash through the office windows. He received his second dose of radiation, leading to many days of radiation sickness, but escaped additional serious injuries. Although he had long-term skin issues, he went on to lead a relatively healthy life for nearly 65 years, raising three children, before being diagnosed with leukemia and dying of stomach cancer.
I cam across this and thought I would share it. Unluckiest man alive.
