This must have scared a ton of people. (The video footage, of course, is not original. It’s the audio you should pay attention to.)
From the video’s creator:
While browsing Wikipedia, I came across this link, a recording of WOWO-AM in Ft. Wayne, IN participating in the Emergency Broadcast System, when the EBS was inadvertently activated for a national emergency.

I decided to create a video of what it was like when people thought they were about to be nuked, only to find out…”This is only a test”
