There is a surprising amount of work to rebuild and maintain a nuclear warhead on a regular basis for it to work as designed. If Russia hasn't maintained their warheads, then they might only give fission yields (like Hiroshima), not H bomb yields. At worst, it may not even be fissile and just end up being a dirty bomb.

I'm betting China is doing a better job of maintaining their warheads.

You really need to be at ground zero to get that effect. Tv over dramatizes the effect.

I want to be vaporized quickly.
