Orange Satan - Johnny Venom - Thankyou Petrov for not killing me and my friends and family

In the early hours of September 26th, as Lt. Col. Petrov was looking at his monitors, one of them alerted a single US missile heading towards Moscow. Petrov quickly dismissed this, as he had known that recently some of their systems were acting up. Moments later, the bank of monitors showed five more incoming ICBMs. He could not contact any early warning system because he was the early warning system!
