You wouldn’t? Surviving those blasts and living to 93 years old? I would say he was VERY LUCKY.

The guy is lucky. He suffered burns and most likely radiation sickness from the explosions.

He was 93 and they want to speculate that his cancer was caused by the atom bombs?

age of 93... Mr Yamaguchi died on Monday morning from stomach cancer, according to Japanese newspapers. It is not clear if the cancer is related to his exposure to radiation...
Hmmm. He was 93 and August 1945 was over 64 years ago.
Maybe he was a smoker and that's what caused it.../s

I used to work for Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. I've been to both the factory in Hiroshima and the shipyards in Nagasaki. The shipyards at Nagasaki built most of the fleet which attacked Pearl Harbor and were the primary target. But as luck would have it, they were shrouded in fog and the other side of the bay, which contained the secondary target, the Mitsubishi Steel Works, was clear.
The Nagasaki bomb was, sadly, unnecessary. The Japanese had passed their intentions to capitulate through their supposedly neutral intermediary, the Soviet Union. The Russians sat on this information long enough to declare war on Japan and help themselves to some major spoils.

It makes you wonder what he thought about when arrived home in Nagasaki, after surviving the Hiroshima blast: “Thank goodness I am back home. It might be boring here in Dullsville Nagasaki, but at least nothing like THAT ever happens around these parts!!”.

He outlived, by quite a few years, his cousin “Chicken” Teriyaki, a kamikazi pilot who flew over 50 missions.

Thanks bogusname.

Of course, he almost starved for years afterward, because no one wanted to risk getting too close to him.
