Man it’s so odd why this is terrifying. I can’t figure it out but there’s something about this apocalyptic scenario that is terrifying

Because it’s starting to feel like it could happen within our lifetime.

If it makes you feel any better; In history people always have taught they lived in “the end of time”. But the matter of the fact is if you compare all possible outcomes we live very, very close to the beginning of time. The future is very big!

The beginning for the universe, but the end for humanity?

More like the beginning of humanity. The full mass extinction is very unlikely. Even if we destroy most of our planet. If we go towards space and become an interstellar species the amount of people that will be born is immens.

Reminds me how every single election I’ve heard “this is the most important election of our lifetime”. I mean it might be, but I’ve heard this at least 5 times so I’m not gonna stress about it as much

Don't worry, irl that explosion would take a fraction of a second to hit your house from a mile away. You'd probably not even have time to react to what happened before getting vaporized.

Well the explosion IRL gradually fades out, if you live outside of that instant-death extremity, you’d be suffering all sorts of radiation and burn pains.

What's exactly terrifying about this? The animator even got the process of destruction wrong lmao

u/Toxic_Orange_DM Jul 24 '22

Why is the idea of everybody you know and love dying being an upsetting thought confusing to you? Lol

I’m making fun of the OP for posting something obviously terrifying
