I was aware that a handful of people were able to survive one of the bombings by either being far enough from the blast wave or by managing to find shelter on dense materials, there are even some reports that might be true or merely rumors that some people survived the first blast and perished at the second one.
But never have I heard about a person that had survived the 2 events and lived to tell the story until now, apparently he died from stomach cancer early this year, 2010, which makes a person who survived 2 nuclear attacks to die with 93 years of age.

or unluckiest man alive? for fuck sakes, how you can manage to get into two nuclear attacks few days apart...
Well, as the story goes, apparently he was a Nagasaki resident that worked at Mitsubishi Motors at the time, on 6th of August 1945, the day of the first nuclear attack, he was at a Mitsubishi factory in Hiroshima, he survived with some 3rd degree burns and loss audition to one of the hears, he was treated in some hospital near Hiroshima and sent home to Nagasaki late on 8th of August and presented himself to work early on the 9th of August (the day when of the 2nd attack) at the Mitsubishi affiliate on Nagasaki, apparently he was describing to his manager how Hiroshima was nuked just 3 days earlier to his manager at Mitsubishi when the bomb fell over Nagasaki.
He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither
