One man survived both Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings.

I wouldn’t call this luck, but we also can’t call this unluck since he managed to survive. Tsutomo Yamaguchi was present in both Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings, and he managed to survive them all.

Yamaguchi moved from Hiroshima due to safety reasons, ending up in Nagasaki. However, he wasn’t safe here either, as he was present in the second bombing, which left him with burns all over his body from radioactive ash.

He’s even recognized by the Japanese government as the first and only person to have survived both the Hiroshima and the Nagasaki bombings. Unfortunately, Tsutomo Yamaguchi died of cancer a few years later.
