But then again there's the question of why haven't the Volturi already destroyed any nuclear bombs they could find if they truly thought there was a legitimate threat. They did it with the Children of the moon. They would do it to any other considerable threat to the vampire population (which there is none). This leads me to believe that the Volturi leaders know there is no threat of human weapons to vampires, which is further backed up by the many similar statements in the Official Guide. But truthfully, the only way to know if a nuke could kill a vampire would be if one was detonated near a vampire. Which most likely wouldn't happen. It's hard to believe any living being could survive a nuclear blast, especially the fireball, but then again twilight vampires are the closest things to indestructible one could imagine, stated by Bella. But still, I stand by my belief that a vampire would be hurt or even killed in close proximity to a powerful nuclear blast.
