NPR - video of 5 volunteers standing below an exploding nuclear bomb
These men volunteered to stand at ground zero and film their experience before and after a nuclear bomb detonates 18,500 feet directly above them.
Big balls!

Little brains.
ETA: Probably shouldn't say that since I'm not sure if they were aware of the health risks associated with that kind of exposure.

Are they alive?
Unsure. They think they found some matches in military records.

Col. Sidney C. Bruce — died in 2005 (age 86)
Lt. Col. Frank P. Ball — died in 2003 (age 83)
Maj. John Hughes — very common name, but I'm guessing he is Maj. John W. Hughes II (born 1919, same as the above) — died in 1990 (age 71)
Maj. Norman Bodinger — unclear (not listed in the database), he may still be alive?
Don Lutrel — I think this is a misspelling of "Luttrell." There is a Donald D. Luttrell in the DVA database, US Army CPL, born 1924, died 1987 (age 63). Seems like a possibility.

Googling through the list, we quickly discovered (as did many of you) that George Yoshitake, the cameraman, was alive, at least as of two years ago. In 2010, he was interviewed in the New York Times and talked about his fellow cameramen who took pictures of atomic bombs. "Quite a few have died from cancer," he told reporter Bill Broad. "No doubt it was related to the testing." Yoshitake's nephew also wrote in and didn't mention his uncle's passing, so I'm guessing that he's now 84 years old and still with us.

That's what the hell's wrong with you.

The bomb was only 2 kilotons? That's the smallest atom bomb I have ever heard of. The yield of the Hiroshima bomb was 18 kilotons.

Probably all died of cancer.

Sure, it was a very small nuclear explosion...but to volunteer to stand at ground and wait for any size nuclear bomb to detonate overhead is absolutely crazy.
