How would one build a refrigerator to survive a nuke?

+0
−0

It's 2016, but for some reason, the Cold War never ended. You've been inspired by your (for some inexplicable reason) favorite movie, Indiana Jones 4, to start a new business: building refrigerators. However, the market is so saturated that in order to distinguish yourself with a nice marketing campaign, you decide to make them NUKEPROOF!

The refrigerator should be:

  1. Usable as a real refrigerator would be.
  2. No bigger than standard double door refrigerator, so no room-sized walk-in refrigerator. Though, you can add some additional size for additional armor, for example, in reasonable margins, so nothing like 10 meters of iron from one side.
  3. Protect one person from up to 1.2 megatonnes of a TNT nuke at a minimum distance of 2 km from the explosion.

How are you going to design it and what materials are you going to use?
