| Caption | “A-bomb experience of a 13-year-old boy” Artist: Seigo Nishioka After the heat rays, I was hit by a very powerful blast. It lifted my body up a few centimeters off of the ground, and threw me sideways along with roof tiles, tree branches and window frames. I thrashed my legs trying to reposition my body, but it didn’t help at all. |
