[00:00:00]What would happen if every nuclear weapon on Earth exploded at the same time? Within minutes, thousands of missiles rise into the sky. Then, the first cities disappear. Blinding flashes hotter than the surface of the sun ignite entire continents. Shock waves flatten everything for miles. In the first hour, modern civilization collapses.

[00:00:22]Day one, massive firestorms consume cities across the planet. The power grid fails. Satellites go dark. The internet disappears forever. Day two, [music] survivors emerge into a silent world. No governments, no communication, only smoke and ash. Day three, the skies turn black. Sunlight can barely reach Earth.

[00:00:44]Temperatures begin falling worldwide.

[00:00:46]Crops start dying. Week one, nuclear winter begins. Millions who survived the explosions >> [music] >> now face starvation and radiation.

[00:00:55]The explosions were only the beginning.

[00:00:57][music] Months later, entire cities become frozen radioactive ruins.

[00:01:02]Humanity survives only in isolated pockets underground. And after all of it, Earth remains. But civilization is gone.
