I am nearing the end of a 6-week road trip filming for an Australian TV show called Catalyst (abc.net.au/catalyst). Along with co-presenters Anja and Simon, I have travelled from Perth towards our destination, Melbourne, picking up all the interesting science stories along the way.
Since we have been working long days I haven't had time to make any new Veritasium material. Instead I thought I'd share some things I have done for this show in the past, including narrating short 'factoid' segments like this one. Hope everyone is having a great holiday season and I look forward to getting back to Veritasium stuff in a few weeks.

What this video is actually talking about is what could survive the RADIATION that results from an atomic bomb. The actual explosion, however, would be extremely hard to resist. Chances are that the fungi and cockroaches would only be able to survive on the very edge of the bomb's explosive radius, and then spread back inward over time.

Well, I'm a fun guy, so I'll be okay. I can decompose all night and sunbathe all day. I will sit on dead trees to eat my lunch and on Wednesdays I will go scraping and have buttered mold for tea. Alas I can not reproduce asexually. I just can not get my Celia to fragment no matter how hard I rub it, and my penchant for cross dressing as a mushroom and hanging around compost piles is not helping; all the spores just choke me up and the wild flowers are really depressing. I was thinking of going to a laboratory, but I do not want to become known as the only puffball in the village. So I guess I will just have to settle for being a closet meiotic Fun Guy and not the fully imperfect Fun Guy I feel I should have evolved to be.

+Mason Mckenrick Depends on where you're from, I don't believe there is an english institution that decides on every pronounciation for everyone. Going by etymology his pronounciation is better.

Upper vacuum ultraviolet is ionizing actually. Lower UV isn't typically, but if too much UV radiation can cause skin cancer, quite obviously there has to be some ionizing going on

What about bacteria? Radioactive bacteria have probably evolved to exploit the abundance of radiation deeper underground, such as in underground caverns where radon gas might accumulate.

It actually does, natural selection would contribute to most of the bacteria being wiped out, but due to radiation (the cause of the extinctions of bacteria) they might develop an immunity to radiation.

Well, in the Chernobyl area there is a very low digest rate compared to the rest of the world (fallen leaves that do not digest and dead trees that don't rot). This is mainly caused by the fact that a lot of bacteria actually cannot handle the high doses of radiation and die.

I do not know if this is a new idea, but we could build non explosive rockets with fungal spores inside of it. So when it hits the drown the spores are released and progressively the fungus will be growing and absorbing the radiation, sunflower also can be used to reduce the radiation amounts on places like Chernobyl. It could be awesome, to make a study about that and analyze the positive impact .

The question was: What can survive an atomic bomb? He did answer the question by describing the organisms that have been found to survive such conditions. So, while he might not have listed every possible survivor, he still answered the question and went beyond what was asked by explaining what would happen to the fungi.

So this explains the bulborbs in Pikmin.. The bulborbs (And many other species of animal/plant/fungi on Earth) started out as normal plant/fungi/animal, but then either absorbed the rads and evolved in the thermonucular disaster (Mushrooms=bulborbs or Puffstools, Plants=pikmin), or they died out (Humans, obviously), or they mutated (ALMOST EVERY BOSS OR ENEMY), or just stayed the same and somehow survived the disaster (The dweevils, the wogpoles, the wollywogs, the spectralids, ETC).
