The Soldier Who Single-Handedly Stopped WWIII (Stanislav Petrov)

September 26, 1983. Soviet early warning systems detect five American nuclear missiles inbound. Protocol demands immediate retaliation. Launch everything. Mutual assured destruction. One man, Lieutenant Colonel Stanislav Petrov, has five minutes to decide: trust the computer and start World War III, or trust his gut that something is wrong. He chose doubt. And saved 3 billion lives. Then the world forgot him, and he died in poverty. 🔍 IN THIS VIDEO: The closest we've ever come to nuclear war (and you never heard about it) How one Soviet officer's decision saved the world Why the alarm was false (sunlight reflecting off clouds) What happened to Petrov after (spoiler: nothing good) The other close calls we don't know about Why nuclear weapons are still the biggest threat to humanity This isn't just history.
