	Was this the luckiest man ever? Tsutomu Yamaguchi was on a business trip to Hiroshima on the 6th of August 1945. He managed to survive and return home to Negasaki; only to survive a second nuclear holocast three days later. His wife survived the attack on Nagasaki by sheltering in a tunnel whilst fetching bandages to treat her husbands wounds from Hiroshima. He went on to live a fairly normal life until he died in 2010. http://www.history.com/news/the-man-who-survived-two-atomic-bombs
