The world is one minute away from the start of a hydrogen war.
At 12:01 North Europe time.
A blazing unidentified missile-like object appears on a foreign sky-search TV screen.
Origin unknown.
Countdown on their hunter-type rocket.
This rocket is designed to track, find, destroy.
Strelia!
The terrible object has been diverted into an orbit by the explosion.
It streaks across the northern curve of the Earth at an altitude of only five miles.
A wild missile loose on the surface of the
Earth, Burning a track five miles wide below it.
It is morning in New York.
A busy spring morning.
In suburban New York is the Great Havenbrook Atomic Laboratory.
Top military research is conducted here.
A 5 billion-volt atom smasher is the heart of Havenbrook.
This is Joe, a solid fuel rocket built to carry a
hydrogen warhead, mightiest weapon in the world.
Job is not yet completed.
Final detail on the warhead is still to be done.
The man responsible for the warhead, David Loring.
His assistant, Joan Wood, this is their wedding day.
Oh, honey, Jove is almost finished.
Wouldn't you rather wait?
I'd rather have a wedding than lunch any day.
A lunch hour isn't very romantic.
David, every time we set a date, a new project comes along.
First, they were the nuclear vectors.
Then we had to perfect the new metal for the third stage of Joe.
Now a hydrogen warhead.
You know how important it is?
Yes, I have.
I know.
But so were we.
Oh, David.
Couldn't we stop thinking about all this for just a little bit?
Beats me how a girl's so used to facts and a work.
Can't get used to them in a private life.
Look at us.
We fall in love over coffee at midnight.
We work 12 hours a day, seven days a week.
David.
I meant it when I said we get married today or not at all.
Well, good thing we got machines to do some work around here.
You got the figures in the warhead ready, Dave?
They sure are.
Look, kids, I hate to do this, but I can't get away now.
Oh.
How can we get married without a best man?
We'll be back in an hour.
We're serving sandwiches on the way back.
The big brass from the Pentagon are in with the boss right now.
Where are the figures, David?
Well, here they are.
You'll have to explain them yourself.
Joan hasn't had a chance to make up a report yet.
They're just out of the computer.
And we're getting out of here right now.
Good luck, kids.
Thanks, Joe.
Oh, by the way, the third stage of Joe was completed this morning.
I don't know how the way Joe looks, doesn't he ever sleep?
He's working too hard.
Maybe when his child is born, he'll take a vacation.
Come, let's hurry.
Command to fire missiles is halted.
Computer's top urgency report indicates object not from any American base,
but its origin is still unknown.
The wild missile boils across the Bering Sea toward the North American continent.
Continental Air Defense Command called Kornan.
This is the center of the security and defense of
the United States against attack from air or space.
The eyes of American Continental Defense are radar eyes.
They search for a thousand miles or more from Texas towers anchored far out in the
Atlantic, from radar planes on Pacific Patrol, from picket ships on continuous duty.
The farthest outposts of Conad's watching eyes are the North Canada radar stations
called Dew Line, distant early warning line.
As cold as ever outside, How's it going?
Oh, it's quiet.
Hey, what the heck is this?
Scandinavian Airlines Flight 576, isn't it?
That's flight 576, he's 90 degrees off course.
I've ever called the patrol plane in check.
This is Keyhole Advance to SpyGlass 7.
Come in, Spyglass 7.
Spyglass 7 to Keyhole Advance.
Come in.
You've got a UFO at 90 degrees.
west on your course.
Investigate.
This is no Scandinavian Airlines flight.
What do you mean?
This thing's traveling at 4,000 miles an hour.
4,000!
Call Spyglass 7 to haven't got all his television camera.
Keyhole advance to Spyglass 7.
Transmit UFO on your television.
camera over this is spy glass seven transmitter ready get the still camera
connev want some pictures of this i'm
online with a tv camera the sky's getting bright he has it on interception course
get that picture now come in spy glass seven come in
Buy that picture to Conad and hurry.
Yes, sir.
Red ball to Conad.
UFO 400 miles from due line.
Keyhole advance.
Latitude, 64 degrees, 22 minutes.
Longitude, 148 degrees and 15 minutes.
Altitude, less than five miles.
Speed?
Over 4,000 miles per hour.
Repeat, over 4,000 miles per hour.
picture will be transmitted to you immediately.
That's only six minutes from here.
We can have it sized down for you in less than two hours.
David, do you like it?
Very nice.
There was one other here that I liked.
Honey, for Pete's sake, just get one that fits.
It isn't very important.
It isn't very important.
Sweetheart, I didn't mean that way it sounded.
David, I just don't seem to understand you.
What's so important at the lab that we can't?
and take a few extra minutes and go to another store and find a ring that fits.
There's really nothing as important to you as your work, is there?
Believe me, you are as important to me as my work.
David, you win.
We're not getting married today.
All right, if you say so, but we've also got to get back to work.
Don't you even care?
Of course I care.
And you're also a scientist.
Yes, and I'm a woman.
Are you misinterpreting everything I say?
Well, am I?
We decide to miss lunch and get married, fine.
But all you can think about is a hydrogen warhead.
Well, I'm sick of it.
I guess I was expecting you to insist to drag
me off to the church, not back to the lap.
Well, marry your hydrogen warhead.
But I'm quitting my job, David.
You'll have to find somebody else for both marriages.
I'll take the ring.
She seemed a little upset.
Yeah, she sure was.
At Conad reports from Deuline take precedence over all else.
So there's a confirmed report of a UFO with the characteristics of a missile.
Check the Canadian defense officer.
Give me the Canadian defense officer.
We have confirmed report of the UFO characteristics of a guided missile.
Royal Canadian Air Force jets are ordered into the sky to intercept.
Fighters have not intercepted rockets since the defense of London in World War II.
The missile is only five miles up, but these
flyers do not know of its million degree heat.
Got any more figures?
Yes, sir.
Speed 4078 miles per hour, altitude 24 ,200, vector unchanged.
The photo is on its way, sir.
The UFO is definitely a missile.
Photo is on its way.
That's about all.
I hope you can stop it.
I figure we've got about...
Put me through the keyhole advance.
Victor unchanged.
Speed remains static, 4078 miles per hour.
Keyhole advance doesn't respond, sir.
Thank God there was a keyhole advance doesn't respond, sir.
Predicted course over Great Slave Lake, west shore of Hudson Bay, passed to
Ottawa, latitude, 38 degrees, longitude 75
degrees, directly over metropolitan New York.
Conat to the Pentagon.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff are called to an emergency meeting.
The first responsibility of these men is 175 million American lives.
They have a second responsibility to advise the president.
in the event of war.
Pentagon puts all America forces on yellow alert and get ready for red alert.
Dave.
Dave.
How about it, Joe?
Hotline, just opened to the Pentagon.
Red hot, situation yellow.
Anybody know why?
Why?
Whoever knows why or what?
Your section is to keep an open line to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Now, there are about 10 sections at the lab on that open line.
What's wrong?
Joan.
Oh, I forgot.
Congratulations.
Where is the Bronx?
She decided I was in love with a hydrogen warhead, not a woman.
No wedding, no lunch.
Doesn't she understand?
Doesn't she know we're in a boat headed for
Niagara Falls and you're trying to stop us?
She knows.
But she doesn't want to believe.
Who does?
Joe, what happened?
The honeymoon express got derailed, Joe.
I heard.
Practice drill again?
Maybe not.
That's the alert to drown the atomic pile.
It must be practice drill.
I've got to get to my station.
Joe, let me say something about David.
It's the job.
It gets all of us.
We have no weather life.
Maybe we want no other life.
I don't know.
Oh, look at me.
My wife is having a baby.
It's due today.
I should be at her side.
I think they can't do without me here for a day.
Well, can't they?
It's crazy.
I don't know anymore whether I should be with my wife or my job.
Go home, Joe.
Ellen needs you.
Listen to that bell.
And I don't think it's practice.
Joe's never seen this bed jacket.
I wouldn't wear it until after a room.
Where is Joe?
He should be here by now.
Oh, don't worry about Joe, Mama.
He's always on time.
He'll be here.
Drive me to the hospital and... Oh, darling.
Sit down to you.
Five minutes apart.
I just hope he isn't held up in traffic.
I'll call Havenbrook and see what time he left.
I'm afraid there aren't many minutes left.
David.
Is it war?
I don't know.
We're alerted to drown the atomic pile on two minutes
notice and I've got to disassemble the jove warhead.
There are two things at Havenbrook that could wipe out 10 square miles of New York.
The atomic pile and the warhead for this missile.
It's a safety precaution.
Safety precaution?
Against what?
Against being hit by something.
I'm going to...
the warhead room please stay by the phone david i'm sorry i behaved the way i did i
don't know how much time there is and i can't even phone her well joe you've got
to get to her she's waiting for me to bring the car to take her to the hospital
she doesn't trust anyone else to take her and the place is frozen who would have
thought a thing like this could happen on a day like this nothing
comes in dinner goes out of Havenbrook and no phone calls.
Let me try.
This is priority call Joan Woods, X27 section.
David Lauren's assistant.
I tried that.
The general has called me Mr. Freed, but I couldn't get through.
Dr. Freed's wife is due to have her baby today.
She's waiting for her husband.
Anne.
Anne.
Look, I know it's a violation, but, well,
Dr. Freed's wife is due to have her baby today.
I explained that.
It didn't do any good.
Joe?
Good girl.
Okay.
Ella?
Uh-huh.
Oh, Ella?
Oh, darling, please hurry.
Tell your mother.
Ella.
Ella, can you hear me?
Joe!
Joe!
I was talking to...
Hello.
Yeah, this is Joffre.
Yes, sir.
Mother, we were cut off.
I thought you'd be with Ella.
The building's frozen.
I got a rush call to get over here.
What is it?
I don't know.
I was called from the hot lab, something big.
Gentlemen, these are seconds of utter urgency.
This is Scrambler's circuit sage, Sage, an object now over Canada headed for New York.
This photograph was taken five minutes ago.
Speed, 4,200 miles an hour.
Altitude slightly under five miles.
It would burn up.
It hasn't.
Looks like atomic, a hydrogen drive.
We believe it to be hydrogen.
It would make a temperature of over one million degrees.
That's impossible.
A high-order magnetic field can be projected from such
a missile without any damage to itself from the heat.
At this moment, groups in every rocket and
atomic installation are looking at this picture.
Out of this combined knowledge we recommend to the president, our guess.
Our information is that the Soviet designs are highly different.
I've never seen this direction of design before.
It's nothing like ours.
Any contradictions?
Mr.
President, the Havenbrook's staff cannot identify design.
You men will be evacuated at once.
We cannot afford to lose you.
This rocket will pass over New York in 63 minutes.
Destroying it.
War today means two things.
Immediate defense, immediate retaliation.
A war may last only an hour.
In that hour, 30 million people could be killed.
SAC, the Strategic Air Command.
The world's mightiest aircraft.
Based in England, Spain, North Africa, Greenland, and the United States.
Seven minutes since the first flash from Conad.
After Pearl Harbor, it took us months to get ready for war.
Against attack by missiles, we have only minutes.
There may be no tomorrow.
There may be no this afternoon.
Eight minutes now since the first alarm.
Hundreds of radar stations around the curve of the
earth are searching for additional flying objects.
Contact is being made with all foreign powers
to identify the source of the wild missile.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Secretary of State's
press conference for today has been canceled.
No, no questions, ladies.
I'm terribly sorry.
Thank you very much for coming, but no questions.
John, I said no questions, young.
In 15 minutes, I go on the network.
30 million people watch me.
What do I tell them?
No comment.
I have requested the president to wait 15 minutes until
replies from the other nations have been received.
Any report on additional missiles?
No, Mr. Secretary.
Any report from CIA on sudden military activity
on the part of European or Asian nations?
No, Mr. Secretary.
A missile over Alaska.
And I must give the President the recommendation of
the State Department on immediate retaliatory action.
What's the danger?
What?
That's what I want to know.
I said no comment.
I'm going to tell the whole country that 10 million people are going to die.
If you use one word of what you just said, just one
word, I can promise you won't stay in Washington.
These are from London and Peking, sir, received four minutes ago.
We're still decoding Paris and Tokyo.
You should have them in three.
minutes.
Well, the foreign ministries deny any hostile action.
All of them disclaim knowledge of the UFO, now over Canada.
What about Russia?
Scramble secretary to the ambassador at Moscow.
Yes?
Yes, Mr. President.
It's the president, sir.
Yes, Mr. President, sir.
Yes, Mr. President.
Mr. President, I'm waiting to hear from our ambassador in Moscow, Mr. President.
I shall inform our ambassador, Mr. President.
The Premier of the Soviet Union has just phoned the President.
Origin of the giant missile is unknown.
Are you all right?
I was just praying.
Praying that these are honorable.
100,000 people go about their everyday business.
100,000 people go about their everyday business.

The evacuation of the city begins.
Joe, what are you doing, home?
There isn't much time.
and fill the bathtub, the sink, and every pot you've got with water.
And if you hear a siren, turn the current to the house off of the main switch.
Yeah, Millie.
Well, I don't know what it's all about, but
maybe we'd better hurry over at the supermarket.
Goodbye, Millie.
And keep off of the phone.
No calls, no loading up at the supermarket.
Stay in the house and keep the radio going.
Yes, Jimmy.
Why'd you have to call me, you know?
No, I always sleep late.
What?
Yes!
Yes, dear.
Well, yes, right away.
What's going on?
Steven, go get Danny and hurry.
What for?
Don't ask her for.
Yeah, but... Don't the air, but just go!
LaGuardia Airport stops all commercial and private air activity.
LaGuardia Tower to all aircraft.
All incoming flights are rerouted to Philadelphia.
LaGuardia Tower to all aircraft.
All flights are temporarily canceled.
All flights are temporarily canceled.
Civil defense measures take priority all over the city.
These men started an ordinary day's work.
They are no longer employees of the wrecking company.
They are soldiers and officers of civil defense.
Theirs is the most important job of any right now.
Red Cross blood banks have been notified that areas surrounding New York City will
need an estimated 4 million pints of blood.
I've never seen anything like it on the scope before.
This is Greenline.
A UFO looking like the lost missile has appeared on the radar scope at this station.
Canadian jets are within 250 miles of interception.
Don't forget to take these, darling.
Number three cars ready, sir.
But there's no priority for Miss Wood.
And there's no priority for me.
Come ahead, Dr. Loring.
I'm staying.
David, even Joe Freed on the day his baby may be born, has no choice.
Joe Freed's baby.
Are you...
We can use Joe.
Joe's not ready.
Except for the warhead, Job is ready.
That would take 10 days we've got less than an hour.
I can put it together in 20 minutes and get to the base and 20 more.
David, get in your car.
I can use a baby warhead.
A baby warhead?
Use just the trigger atomic fuse.
Sir, it's the only missile we've got that can get through that heat fast enough and
at least have a chance with an atomic explosion.
David, there is a chance.
Take these I'm staying here.
You're right.
Joe can search it out with its own guiding device at 5,000 miles and out.
Canadian jets are two minutes from interception.
90 seconds to interception.
They are 30 miles apart.
It's burned them out of the sky.
Report negative.
There's no radar trace of the Canadian jets.
Bandit missile continues on previous vector.
What do the computers say?
Predicted course is vector.
Short on the map, please.
On the map.
It is followed a course across northern Canada, past the Great Slave Lake,
the Copper Mine River, along the southern shore of Hudson's Bay.
Its course lies directly through Ottawa, the Adirondacks, and into New York City.
All I can give you, David, is command support.
Let's go, let me get no one.
Found this man trying to hide.
He belongs in car number five.
I won't be any good anymore anyway, General.
My wife's having a baby today.
All right, Gart, pass this man outside.
I'll start the countdown and clear you through.
Yes, sir.
Ottawa is on a red alert.
police and civil defense officers.
Take shelter.
All persons will proceed to evacuation areas wherever possible.
Take shelter.
I repeat, take shelter.
Obey your civil defense warden.
Obey your civil defense ward.
Ottawa is on a red alert.
As of now, I'm putting the East Coast on red alert.
Issue the orders.
Air Force Command.
A lot as soon as possible, it flies.
Red alert.
Scramble interceptors for attack on enemy missile.
Instruct pilots, stay a minimum of five miles distance.
Utilize full firepower.
Sage is notified.
From here go the orders to the fighter squadrons that
will take to the air against the missile from hell.
Give me the radio room.
This city is in the path of a runaway missile.
In two minutes, the governor of the state will be on
every TV and radio station to declare martial law.
You men know what to do in Situation Red.
This is Situation Red.
Eight million people go underground.
New Yorkers have been conditioned by practice alerts.
They know what to do.
Turn off your electricity and gas, fill pots and pans with water.
Obey your civil defense portals.
This is Conoran.
Stay tuned to this station.
Is the report true, Governor?
Yes, the missile will be over Ottawa in 51 minutes.
Over New York, six minutes later.
Can we intercept it?
Two flights of Canadian rocket fighters have already been burned out of the air.
If everything else fails, I don't know.
How can we evacuate 10 million people?
Well, I don't know, but we can at least try to get the children out.
Are you going to declare martial law?
I must.
And right now.
That when my cousin says go, go, go, she really means no, no.
Excuse me.
I've just been informed that we're about to switch to a special bulletin.
Please, keep this in mind.
So long as you have your faith, you'll be alive and well.
So keep your faith.
Ladies and gentlemen, the governor of your state.
please listen carefully to ensure your safety I have declared martial law now
there is no war nor any danger of war there is however some danger from a flying
object which may approach New York City you will obey all police and civil defense
orders for your own safety as an additional precautionary measure children
will be taken from schools to protected erics i got ordered to get over as quick
as i could irving i got to be back by four to what we'll talk about it later jerry
jerry i won't let them take you away don't cry darling don't cry please let jerry
come with us no no i'm afraid i'll never see him again please don't scare the
children i'll let him come along The bus is a ball.
We're going out to the country.
Buses like this one are picking up school children all over the city.
Each driver prays that someone is doing the same for his children.
Save the young.
Walk, do not run to your nearest shelter.
It increases the danger.
At Havenbrook Laboratory, David Loring is preparing the baby warhead.
These metal fingers reach for the man-made element plutonium.
Its radiation is the deadliest known.
This warhead will be equal in destructive power to 100,000 tons of TNT.
Not so fast, Ella.
Be careful, darling.
Mrs. Freed, we thought you'd gone to the hospital already.
Her husband was supposed to come.
Come, what happened with the husband, Mrs. Freed?
On such a day, forgive me for saying, but nothing should happen.
What does it matter when he gets here?
How do we know we'll be here to greet him?
Harold, you shouldn't be so pessimistic?
Pessimistic.
I am being optimistic.
I believe this whole pile of bricks is going to be wiped out.
That's the only optimistic thought I've had since I got this job.
Did you hear anything new?
The last bulletin only repeated.
Get off the streets and go to a shelter.
For my radio, I forgot.
Now, we'll be snug as a bug in a rug here.
Why do we have to be snug as a bug here in the basement?
Mama?
Oh, Mama, the pain.
What's the matter with the lady, Mama?
She's going to have a baby.
I mean, here right now?
I think so, darling.
You stay here, and I'll go and see if I can help.
Dave!
It's all right, sir.
Keep going.
I'll catch up with you.
It's all right, Joe.
The warhead is ready.
You can't use it.
What's the matter?
I know where that thing came from.
It's more important than my wife and baby.
It's more important than the whole city.
What do you mean you know where it came from?
It's not a missile.
You saw the picture.
a fined hydrogen powered into continental missile.
Not intercontinental, Dave.
Enter planetary.
A lost missile.
That's not impossible, Joe.
But right now we've got to destroy it before it destroys us.
You can't destroy it.
It may have people in it.
It's from another planet.
We could make contact with them talk to.
Think how important that would be to science.
How important it would be to us.
I know how important it is to us right now.
I've got to stop you, Dave.
I've got to...
This is Joe base.
The countdown is 30 minutes to zero.
Now.
New York, quiet, waiting.
Minutes left.
Last line of defense, Nike missiles around New York are raised into firing position.
The computer could be wrong about the missile hitting New York.
This is one fact you've got to face.
You've got to believe it.
Millions of people, David.
I can't.
It's too terrible.
It's hard to know that maybe you're going to die within the hour.
Hard to understand.
It's got to be faced without panic, possibly with some hope.
It would have been better not to tell them.
Much, much kinder.
Let them go on just enjoying a beautiful morning in
New York and at least they'd never know what hit them.
Could Joe be right, a lost spaceship?
Certainly not impossible.
No nation on earth with fire such a missile.
It would have to be a nation of homicidal maniacs.
We built Joe with a hydrogen warhead that can rip 500 square miles out of the earth.
The job Job was built to do, it will do today.
Our wedding day.
Joe will reach maximum velocity one minute
after firing, and the shell will begin to burn.
Contact with the lost missile somewhere over Lake Champlain.
I hope.
This is Joe Base.
Countdown is 25 minutes to zero.
Now.
Phase one.
Phase 1, negative.
Phase 2.
Phase 2.
The missile continues on its way to Ottawa.
Counter-attack by hunter-type missile.
2.
1.0.
Phase two, negative, course and speed unchanged.
Wait, was this sudden, just when the wolf
was going to eat up a little red riding hood?
I'm getting 30 children to safety, and I don't even know what's happening to my own.
Sydney, Lixandra alone Miss Chalso, I'm holding up my hand When you think it's
safe to stop Safe Who knows where it's safe I don't even know what's going on
Except New York has had it Must be at least two million children in New York I
wonder how many will get out alive Everything we've passed has been loaded
with children It's martial law No cars leaving Manhattan unless it's carrying
children Must have planned it that way Please let Joe do its job.
Oh,
hot fraud jeeps.
That one had a big boxing.
They're maniac.
There are no children in that car.
I thought only cars was children.
That's why he's burning up the road.
Self is crazy coward.
Look at him go.
Go ahead, Dave!
Go ahead!
And
now we'll give him a face.
An eye, Deuseue, whoop, a ne, and a boche.
And now he can smoke.
My man can smoke.
Oh, yes, he can.
Look, papa, look.
Jacques, what is it?
I don't know.
It's a very strong boy.
Oh, she'll be able to play with him, Mama.
Soon, my darling, very soon.
Joe will be so proud.
He always wanted a boy.
Mother, how does my bed jacket look?
Oh, it looks fine, Ella.
Just fine.
How is she?
She's all right, Joe.
A boy, Joe.
Our little boy.
To give a child minutes of life.
Mr. Freed, do you know...
A spaceship.
A lost spaceship.
Can we stop it?
Can you stop the heat from the sun?
Can you stop the tide?
Or life?
The monster will not fall.
It will go on and on until the entire planet of
Earth is burned off like an apple being peeled.
It'll be over Great Britain on its 14th revolution.
That means in three days, London will be in ashes.
Stockholm one day.
Paris, one day.
Rome, two days.
Moscow, four days.
The wild missile is now 400 miles from Ottawa.
Give me a conad.
Sir, that was Ottawa.
In seven minutes to Paso.
The city, New York City seven minutes later.
People have been sent to shelters.
Many find their shelter in God.
This junker's through.
Yeah, well, I ain't about to try walks, Bill.
We take whatever comes along.
David, be careful.
Got to go as fast as I can.
That thing in back.
It's built to take shock.
Enough plutonium to blow up all of New York.
For about four miles from the missile base.
A jeep, no less.
Come on.
The countdown is...
The army announced that an intercepting missile carrying an atomic warhead and
capable of approaching the lost missile will shortly be launched.
Stay tuned to this station.
Deadly radiation.
The lead shield of the box has been opened.
Stop!
Stop!
Please stop!
Please give us a lift.
It's urgent.
I'm from Havenbrook Atomic Research.
Our car was stolen.
Always room for a couple of more.
Thank you very much.
This is Joe Face.
The countdown is eight minutes to zero.
There's the Jeep.
Stop the car.
They've opened the box.
David.
Look, go near there.
There's radioactive material.
David, what are you doing?
What's your idea?
protects his eyes, but he has condemned himself to death.
Stay away!
Get back!
David!
David!
Please!
David, please!
Oh David!
I'm back!
Joan Wood knows what plutonium radiation means.
David Loring will die in minutes.
Ottawa waits.
A city ready to die.
Nothing more can be done.
Some may live, only to remember for the rest of their lives
the most horrible moments of destruction man has ever known.
Ottawa
is gone, boiling cauldrons of steam, molten lava, twisted girders, desolation.
New York has five minutes.
Hello, hero!
I figured you'd stay.
Got to keep the Jews going, Hamax.
Most of the guys are staying for the finish.
This is Joe Base.
The countdown is four minutes to zero.
Now.
Dr. Lowing is through the gate.
Joe Face.
The countdown is three minutes to zero.
Now.
This is Joe Face.
The countdown is two minutes to zero.
Now.
You'll never make it in time.
Not much radiation, you may not even live to try.
30
seconds to zero.
Now, 29, 28, 28, 27, 26.
