Best Answer

You can survive a nuclear explosion if you are far enough away from it for the initial heat and blast to have little or no effect on you.

You then need to be deep enough underground or in a well-built shelter to avoid the radioactive fallout that would occur for days and weeks after the explosion.

If you are far enough away, deep enough into a shelter, and have enough food, water, sanitation, medicine and luck, you would survive.

To what end, who knows? But you'd be alive.

Can you survive in an nuclear explosion while in an refrigerator?

no, you cannot survive IN a nuclear explosion at all. everything INSIDE the explosion itself, which is roughly 1,000,000 C, is vaporized to an ionized plasma! everything including ALL metals!one can survive near a nuclear explosion, but it requires some combination of luck and preparation. i suggest reading Dean Ing's novel: Pulling Through. not only is it a good story, but it is well researched and includes appendices with detailed instructions on how to make and use the various devices the characters in the story used to improve their survival chances.
