Doomsday preppers rush to ‘nuclear-proof’ valuables with metal that ‘can survive almost anything’ amid WW3 fears

As tensions throughout the world increase and concerns about World War 3 grow, DOOMSDAY preppers are scrambling to save their assets.

As the conflict between Russia and Ukraine enters its third year and negotiations for a ceasefire accord between Israel and Hamas have stagnated, Google searches for ways to survive a nuclear explosion have surged in recent days.

Armageddon preppers can utilize this list of the top nuclear-proof storage boxes created by Sarah Day, a Storage Solutions specialist from Pay Less for Storage, to properly safeguard possessions.

“Keeping your important possessions safe from a nuclear blast means you’re going to need to store them in something made from a material that can withstand extreme heat, massive amounts of pressure, and, of course, radiation,” Day stated.

“Some materials have a higher chance of withstanding a nuclear explosion if they are farther out, even though nothing at the blast’s epicenter is actually likely to survive.

“These are your best bet for ensuring that your passport, Pok mon cards, or whatever it is you hold most dear is likely to make it.”

‘NUCLEAR-PROOF’ MATERIAL

Tungsten is ranked top on Day’s list because the expert believes it to be the “most hardy.”

“This dense metal can survive almost anything you throw at it,” Day stated.

“Its extremely high melting point (over 3400 C) and resistance to radiation make it the ideal material for a safe or security box.”

If, however, you are unable to obtain tungsten, do not be alarmed.

Day ranked the “lightweight and durable” titanium at number two.

“Titanium is great if you want something blast-proof and portable,” according to the specialist.

“It’s resistant to heat, corrosion, and chemical attacks, making it a strong choice for nuclear-proof containers.”

Ceramic comes in third on the list because, according to Day, it is “incredibly heat resistant and won’t melt.”

“In fact, ceramic pots have been found intact at Pompeii,” Day stated.

Additionally, it is resistant to radiation and will not deteriorate or disintegrate.

“However, it’s not as hardy in extreme cold conditions and may not make it through a nuclear winter that follows the blast.”

Regular stainless steel comes in at number four; although it isn’t as strong as titanium or tungsten, the expert says it’s a “solid choice and easier to source.”

“Ready-made stainless steel safes and lockboxes can be purchased cheaply and easily online or in hardware stores,” Day stated.

“Its high melting point gives it a decent chance of keeping your valuables safe.”

Lead is at the bottom of the list.

According to the expert, “Lead is excellent at withstanding radiation,”

However, it needs to be sufficiently thick to provide adequate protection.

“Unfortunately, it melts at a relatively low temperature, so you’ll want to combine it with another material and use it as a lead lining for additional radiation shielding.”
