   "This is Tokyo. Once a city of six million people. What has happened   
   here was caused by a force which up until a few days ago was entirely   
   beyond the scope of Man's imagination. Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to   
   the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and   
   could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else   
   in the world. There were once many people here who could've told of   
   what they saw... now there are only a few. My name is Steve Martin. I   
   am a foreign correspondent for United World News. I was headed for an   
   assignment in Cairo, when I stopped off in Tokyo for a social; but it   
   turned out to be a visit to the living HELL of another world."
