This one amazed me. People paid for a bus out to watch nuclear detonations not far from Las Vegas. Apparently there were several open air tests in the early 50s.

One image shows troops only 7km from ground zero!

I haven't checked lately to see if the Van Allen radiation belt is still hot, but fish taken around Bikini Atoll are still unsafe to eat due to "environmental radiation". In short, you could live there... if you brought food & water.
