You wouldn't suffer any long term effects from the blast at that distance.

You either want to be close enough for instant death or far enough to be mostly unaffected. The middle ground where you die slowly from cancer or get crushed by debris or something would suck
The burns and your body turning into soup from radiation is the real terrible part.
slush
you have to stay 9 feet away as the shockwave expands. That's the trick
The shockwave will help keep you safe by moving you another 500 away from the epicenter.
In many different directions.
Would that actual save you? Because, I thought the radiation also kills peoples far outside of the shockwave range...

Well, getting instantly vaporized is safer than getting hit by debris or getting all types of cancer at once.
You and I define "safer" differently.
If you're vaporized, bits of you have no chance of hurting anyone else like they could if you were hit by debris and simply exploded into chunks.
Call me selfish, but I'm worrying more about what's safe for me.
Also, If I'm at a distance where I'm exploded into chunks, then the people who could be hurt by those chunks are likely to not be doing so great themselves either.

Google's featured snippet thing is not only a bad feature, it's actively causing harm. It's extremely unreliable, but people who aren't tech literate, which is most people, think "well it's Google, so it must be right." Sometimes it's obviously wrong in a funny way, but more often, it's doing something like parroting dangerous medical misinformation. To make things worse, it's very likely to answer a question, which is the search form preferred by the technologically illiterate, with a yes. I would go so far as to say they should be sued for gross negligence for implementing it. It's killed people, when antivaxxers say they "did their own research", there's a good chance it was a Google featured snippet reinforcing their claim.
It's going to be more and more unreliable as the results it's snipping from are increasingly machine-generated.
oh no, I only have 2 feet
Same, guess we'll die.
Is this A"I"?
I was told that when you see a nuclear explosion then you should carefully observe it because you'll never see anything like it again in your life.
This must be the "dangerous misinformation" I keep hearing about.
Sarah Connor already told us how to prepare:
"Anybody not wearing two million sunblock is gonna have a real bad day"
I mean, maybe if it's a really, really small nuclear explosion
Nah. There are now three sets of imperial units: UK, US, and U235.
Well for what it's worth, it didn't specify that it's 9 feet from the blast center. If we define the blast by its radius of safety, then staying that distance plus 9 feet will, in fact, keep you safe
Time is relative so this is technically true
"The ~~goggles~~ sunglasses, they do nothing!"
Thanks ChatGPT
Wait, does it have to be exactly 9 feet?
Of course. An inch in either direction would be extremely dangerous.
Or hide in a fridge.
Whose feet, JFC! :O
Jersey Fried Chicken?
One letter seems to be missing...
It's their meme, hence they're not in it.
Been eating paint chips all my life for this moment
It got confused by all the American measuring units. Probably meant 9 chinchillas.
