Hostilities escalate. Hoarding has begun, and people are already fleeing the city. One aside: the people lined up at the phone booth are a stark reminder of what life was like in the days before cell phones.

  • Nuclear war is useless, it's a loose loose situation. Almost all grocery shelves would be cleared within less then a week. That's if you could even get money to pay for it as most banks will have closed along with ATM's.

    And that's before the shit hits the fan or the 2 year long winter.

  • @poodtang1 This is assuming there was a week's warning. 

  • @poodtang1 i'm pretty sure money currency would be useless.

  • @Freepepsi42 It would. In the aftermath of a nuclear conflict, the barter system would again become prevalent; food and fuel would truly be worth their weight in gold.

  • This is so strange! Why do all the characters seem so nonchalante about things "The Russians have invaded West Germany" and they carry on as normal. I'd be shitting myself. Hell even the Kosovo War in 1999 got people more bothered than these people are about World War 3!

  • @shahideurope Denial? Simply refusing to believe they would actually through with it and really push all the buttons?

  • Why were those people even paying for all that food? If it was me, I would have loaded up a shopping cart and then busted out a window.

  • @citchyruzz You've got that right! LOL

  • guttenburg playing a steven...hmm

  • Mahoney!!!!!!!!

  • 7:38 The guys kids on the camping trip probably faired way better then their Dad did.

  • 3:58. its funny because oil in the middle east is an issue today.

  • Shows like this are like a time machine. No cell phones, no text messaging, heck even a beeper was rare in those days. It illustrates how much things have changed in 30 years.

  • lothartheterrible, at 6:27 the two-tone signal of the Emergency Broadcast System is activated replacing the newscast on the radio. Would this have been a localized Kansas City metro activation of the EBS or a national EBS activation? Back in the EBS days, the script that would have to be followed for a national EBS activation started with "we interrupt our programming, this is a national emergency, important instructions will follow", followed by the EBS tone and emergency info that follows.

  • THIS CAN REALLY HAPPIN
