Speaking about a general bomb:

The fireball does not exist irl. Yo get killed by the shockwave that smash your organs, at small distance the wave will remove some limbs from you. Further away, the debris the bomb throws around can hit and kill you. Last, you get buried by a collapsing building maybe.

That’s it for the common bomb.

Then there are anti people bombs, that are specialized into making shrapnels (the bomb contains thousand of bullet sized metal pieces, they fly around like an omnidirectional shotgun)
