He was Pastor Tolsen. This was produced in 1963 or 1964.

I remember seeing his fallout shelter signs allowed in the 90s. When I was told that means it's a public fallout shelter and noticed that my Elementary School basement had 1 at the top of the stair well. I remember seeing dusty boxes stacked up in a closet. By the end of the school year in 1999 when I was leaving for middle school they were tossing it all out.

He’s incorrect. If there is 2.5 gallons of water per person, for a 14-day period, that means 2.85714 cups of water per person per day, or 2 and 3/4 (approximately). That works out to just slightly over half a quart, not over a full quart as the narrator announced. That is also WAY below dehydration levels. I thought they already knew that people needed a minimum of a gallon of water per day. I can’t imagine how the government could get away with setting up shelters, and call them “ready” when the quantity of available water is that short! They’re basically providing 1/6 of the recommended MINIMUM for survival! On top of that, the “food” rations for many of those shelters were a minimal few nabisco crackers per day. No variety, no flavor, nothing else. The toilet facilities were basically a shower curtain in the corner. No privacy for odor or sound. There was no way to silence people’s habitual sounds, particularly children. People would get bored, stir-crazy, would be too self-conscious to wash much, would be constipated terribly, from being too shy to poop in public. I suspect many people would come out of the shelters changed, and not for the better. No matter how civil people tried to be, it would be an incredibly traumatic experience for everyone involved!

Actually that "gallon a day" rule comes with some caveats-it's the amount a normally active adult needs every day on a long term basis, and includes liquid from all sources, including what's in the food you're eating. For a limited time (and two weeks falls into that category) a sedentary adult can actually survive on less than a liter per day. In extreme circumstances, you can actually do with less-after the explosion on Apollo 13, the crew survived nearly four days on six ounces per day each. While living two weeks on 3/4ths of a quart of water per day doesn't sound pleasant, it's doable. And you can always stock up with more-they're talking about _minimum_ amounts.. Once nice thing about your "too shy to poop" scenario-feces contains a fair amount of water, so that actually stretches how long you can go with the water supply :-)

The reason the video states 2 weeks is that in studying fallout in a book it says the radiation is 100 percent day 1.As days progress the half life of radiation decreases until safe (maybe) in 2 weeks.Thats barring no more detonations and wind conditions in the area.

The public fallout shelter in this video needs the following items and amenities: 1. A 50 or 60 inch flatscreen TV posted on the wall next to the shelter entrance door. (For entertainment, weather reports during the fallout conditions, news updates, and fallout monitoring) 2. A computer (Dell, HP) and laptop and charge ports throughout the basement for the occupants phones and tablets. (The computer and laptop will be for the shelter manager and his staff so they can monitor fallout radiation readings, check the status of the shelter, watch news updates from civil defense, and keep in touch with command and emergency operators) 3. Bathtubs and showers and toilets (5 each) for the occupants. The water will be recyclable throughout the shelter as the main pumps may be damaged or contaminated by fallout. Toilet water will also be recyclable, but with iodine sanitation. 4. Water fountains with the same principle as the tubs and showers. 5. EMP Shield. (Protects the entire shelter's electrical systems and telecommunications and water systems from EMP and power surges) 6. Robot assistants like WALL-E, R2-D2, C-3PO, Roomba, and 2-MB. 7. Two drones outside the shelter to monitor radiation levels and bring back data to the shelter staff. 8. Bunk beds for extra space in the basement. 9. A medical bay with X-Ray, surgery, relaxation for stress, and decontamination. 10. A study room and chapel.

They need to bring these back now more than ever with the current situation, every country should do this

I think it’s come out that no place was ever really all that prepared for a nuclear attack aside from the govt itself. They had a fully stocked and maintained shelter in WVa, but the most I ever heard as far as preparedness for the public was larger building being declared suitable as shelters and maybe some supplies. The civil defense budget was never big enough to support the type of shelters these videos talk about. They kinda just hoped local govts covered everything themselves.

I learned when you go to the public shelter? It's best to just bring a few things. Sensible things. 4:00 or so ...

In the event of a nuclear exchange, most of the radioactive isotopes decay after a few weeks, except iodine-137 and Strontium-90, which have half lives of over 30 years. The main problem with nuclear war is not the blast and fallout effects, but the global famine by the total collapse of all supply chains. Literally billions of human beings would starve to death from this.
