Surviving An Asteroid
- If an asteroid the size of Chicxulub hit earth on the same spot in Mexico, one could get killed in Texas, be deaf in New York, and lose the car window panes at Buenos Aires (Argentina).
- If a resulting tsunami doesn’t get you, you might have a better chance near the ocean to survive. It is also a good idea to hide in a cave, shielding from the impact of trillions of shattered glass bullets(which in large quantities cause firestorms in the air).
- Surviving the resulting heat is tricky, and a large tropical island might be the safest place to be. Another option is to find a mountainous region with a livable temperature, deep caves and less rainfall. One can eat the plants and animals (carefully) to survive.
