You actually save a ton of money in the long run by buying a bunker. Just build one under your backyard, then sell the house and secretly live in the bunker rent free.
No, the backyard part of the house property, so legally bunker also part of the house... You can advertise sale house comes with bunker, but defeats purpose of a secret bunker...
Best for me is , if there will be some serious thing happening , is wont be days , weeks , months this will be YEARS , Nuclear war those people in bunker as fucked , how long they will have power , supply ? top 2 years , and then what ? , and there is also think , that other people will knew that this bunker exist , and 100% they will do anything to get in , basically those millions are just wasted .

Perhaps if you have inexhaustible wealth and a willingness to see the world you knew turned to skeletons and musculature. Those old European families who happen to survive didn’t let their lineage exist with honor.
Why would you get a bunker over a house? It would have less room, sunlight, and airflow. It would be less convenient and less aesthetically pleasing while being more expensive. The only pro is that it would be temporarily safer in the unlikely chance of societal collapse. You would still need to do things outside like farming if you hope to survive long-term - which would expose your bunker location to other people.

Well, now, I am really thinking about bunkers. But only in US there are companies like this that design and build bunkers. It would be really difficult to design something like this with all of those life support systems in EU.
The reason why they are not for sale in the EU is because nobody is so crazy to buy one. In case a real scenario happens, a bunker won't help. In case something mild happens (like covid) you dont need a bunker. Conclusion: bunkers are pointless.
@@dirkudo1075 Actually, Atlas shelters has a plant in Poland and more are opening across EU and supposedly the demand is high enough to open more shelter makers.
@m i dont think it is every house but instead there was at one point enough shelter capacity to hold every citizen in public bunkers and the like but its a bit more relaxed now, to be fare they had good reason to want to prepare for an invasion given the neighborhood at the time
I was wondering that too. I didn’t see any wells or septic systems. Also, where is all the life support systems and how are they powered? It seems like an add-on to your house instead of a separate self-sustaining unit.
Some of the preppers have water supplies for X amount of time. Some have water collection depending on their climates. It’s a fascinating world, and I’m thankful I’m not too worried to join it
A commercially-sized, properly maintained septic tank can last a lifetime or longer for a single family. As for water, there are systems that can convert urine and other waste-water to clean water (like on the ISS), and others that tap into well water and filter it through an RO system, not to mention that anyone can buy bottled water by the truckload and it only takes 1/4gal per adult to wash and rinse with a sponge bath. It's also important to note that radiation or civil conflict wouldn't prevent you from surfacing unless you were near a direct hit of a nuclear explosion or in a densely populated area; in which case you've built your bunker in the wrong place. They should be built near a natural well, far away from any metropolitan areas. And let's be real, a hole in the ground (single entrance, single exit) is not sufficient for safety, so you would either need a series of connected bunkers with multiple entrances and exits with some concealed OR build the entrance to the bunker inside of a secured house inside of a secured compound. A real sense of security is expensive, but even with all of that, a major military power could turn your secure compound/home/bunker into a crater from an unmanned drone by pressing a button.
THAT is a very important topic. Every place has a different method, depending on the designer of the bunker. I myself, dug a hole and built my own with sand bags and barbed wire. My septic is planned to be a methane digester. That's the wisest way to use those nutrients. It turns to compost at some point. I'm thinking of using a sleep number bed for a gas bladder to store the methane. It's a work in progress. Its money that stop all forward movement. Semper Fidelis
If you Plan to build a Bunker underground then don't build it underneath a heavy house because if a bomb is thrown on there the house collapses and block the dor from the other side and then you can't get out anymore if your bunker is also out of metal you can't communicate to the outside they don't know where you are so they can't help and you will die alone in your bunker also if war is over or so because you can't get out anymore
@@unbekanntunbekant4587 there are many entrance/exit options including tank door 25/50 ton jacks which let you escape a flipped tank. If you have to money for a fake house, you're probably going to have a plan b exit tunnel built in as well which ideally has a lead doors built to withstand a tank blast and radiation
@@noahnoah2747 ones with the big lead doors also can be equipped with thermal lances and hydro cutting systems that can cut through over a foot of solid lead. Some bunkers even have escape pods that can blow debris away from overhead while blasting into the air. Some of these are also designed to work underwater to resurface from below. Current tech has the best bunker systems set up to survive 500-800 years easily in terms of working systems I've heard of
Actually there are many people such as doctors and lawyers in the preparedness community gun community and other such community’s because it’s so damn expensive I mean a good rifle can cost $2000 a single automatic weapon cost 30,000 licenses to manufacture automatic weapons cost hundreds of dollars a month
@@jeremiasrobinson okay simplified version professions that make a lot of money also sometimes get into groups that cost a lot of money such as preparedness or firearms there is that better?

Bunkers aside, I do think it's a good idea to be prepared to survive in an emergency for a few days. Storms and weather can knockout power, after all. If I lived in hurricane/typhoon regions I'd be prepared for more, just in case. Hell, if I lived in tornado country then I might think about a small shelter, just in case I can't run in time.
idk how my grandma grew up in kansas lol she said it was often they were rushed into the cellar xD meanwhile my ass gets a little nervous when theres strong wind that might knock out the power lol... although to be fair that did happen and we went 9 days no power and snowed in and i got pneumonia and thought i was ganna die cause thats what kills everyone else with cerebral palsy i knew lol
@@kpsiex Yeah as if anything significant is going to happen though... Either Russia doesnt invade, or they do and destroy western ukraine while nato sits by and sanctions them.
They’re a sham lol. You can break into most with a toolkit. The only useful bunkers are for natural disasters like hurricanes and tornadoes. Nuclear bunkers are stupid. In a post nuclear world, military grade explosives will be easy to access, so even the most advanced of bunkers will be broken into with relative ease. Ironically enough, these loonies building shelters won’t survive long in a post apocalyptic world. Everyone and their mother will be after their holes in the ground filled to the brim with ammunition, food, purified water and weaponry. They’re a big target. They’re genuinely dumbasses if they think they’re going to be able to use up their 2 year or god knows how long supply of food and water before someone breaks into that bunker. They’re just glorified coffins
If the hydrogen bomb is detonated literally on top of the nuclear bunker no, but if it’s in a remote area or anywhere away from the center of the explosion, it will most likely survive. It best to have nuclear bunkers if you live in the countryside, away from any military installations and etc.
If you studied nuclear warfare, you’ll know that one bomb may not be just enough to eliminate an ICBM military post, in old Soviet declassified files, you’ll see more then 5 nukes invested in taking one military post, due to just how well bunkered and spread out the missiles are.
You seem to think that the Chinese and Russians are going to waste hydrogen bombs to *surface* *detonate* every boogaloo hideout, when it’s far from it.
You dont know who he is or where the bunker is though....so thats not an issue. The problem is that he invites friends and family to tour..... who do they tell?
@@Rich-yj4ub That's not actually true if you aren't too near the centre of a blast (and presumably if you are you probably didn't survive long enough to worry anyway), it's certainly true that the contamination in some areas that are directly hit would still be detectable for centuries but the initial radiation would drop to an 'increased risk of developing cancer in the long term but nonetheless very survivable level' very quickly (radiation levels would be 90% lower than the moment of the blast after about 24 hours or thereabouts and 99% lower after just 72 hours- thereafter you are unlikely to get sick from just going outside at least in the short term), and even at the blast zone itself the radiation levels would only be directly dangerous for a matter of weeks. The real threat after the first few days would be contaminated water supplies/food supplies, which if eaten really would still kill you. The caveats are of course that it does depend on the type/size of bomb that was used/wind direction/whether they blew it in the air before it hit the ground or not/how many were used overall but generally speaking you have a pretty good chance of surviving if you can make it to some sort of shelter to ride out those first few days + secure clean food and water. Also I do recommend you go and look this stuff up, it's quite interesting to read about.
I love how almost no bunkers I see involve greenhouses or anything... Hell, most don't have any water supplies that aren't connected to existing utility lines. It's nice to plan 1 month in advance & all that, but how relevant is that swimming pool going to be if there's a complete societal collapse or widespread nuclear fallout contaminating all your surroundings for years?

@@Omalleyus You do realise that these anti-mask people are not "dems" or "conservatives" because their other political views are irrelevant, and that people from anywhere on that political spectrum will choose to wear masks or not. Gotta stop this ludicrous polarization, man. It's destroying politics and we're all getting shafted by it.
People paying big bucks for fully stocked, impenetrable homes "just in case", while somewhere else around the world, people's primary home has water shortage and not enough food to go around. The world is so imbalanced.
No one knows what the rich do. Be it abnormal human relations, or abuse on another level which ruins lives. Regardless, they aren’t doing anything to benefit the whole- with their inexhaustible waste of resources. They are demons.
On the surface, this level of prepping can seem ridiculous. Even more ridiculous once you climb down the ladder and see what's below the surface. $30k in guns and ammo and some Mountain Home stashed away does not a survivor make. Guys like that, it's hard to take serious. I mean, c'mon, $30k in ammo alone doesn't get you very far these days, and that stuff doesn't last forever, especially if you store it in a hastily built bunker that's not humidity controlled. But the logic behind it isn't as farfetched as a lot of folks tend to think. Since the founding of the US, we've faced a major upheaval once every 60-80 years. The Revolution, the Civil War, WWII and the Cold War, all had the potential to be existential threats. Going by the numbers, we're due for another big one, and there are a ton of candidates. As far as pandemics go, COVID was rather mild, but as more and more humans walk the earth and more and more diseases get chances to form vectors, the chances of something much worse popping up grows every year. Half the West Coast is a potential tsunami killing field. The San Andreas Fault may or may not let go with the next big one. Climate change raises the chances of more and more powerful hurricanes aimed at the East Coast with each passing season, and on top of everything else, we've got humans to deal with, the crazy bastards. Something has to give. When you take all that into account, having a bunker might not seem like such a bad idea, if you can afford it. Even if you can't afford it, some level of preparedness makes sense. I'll grant you that learning useful skills will probably get you further than living out your wildest Fallout fantasies. Even something as simple as knowing how to apply a tourniquet or splint a broken limb can dramatically increase your chances of survival in the event of a worst case scenario. But, if you've got the money and you plan to do it right, why not take extra precautions? Best case scenario, you never need it and you can pass it on to your kids when you croak. Worst case, you give them the best shot at survival you possibly can.
@@thepedrothethethe6151 Nope. Hollywood focuses too much on the event itself and misses all the really fun parts, like what happens when the water mains are cut, or when floods force people out of their homes, or when power outages spoil food, or when fuel shortages leave people stranded. Most people are basically decent, so long as they’re not desperate. In the short term, if help comes quickly enough, civility will endure. But what happens when it doesn’t? What’s more, a localized disaster can have far reaching consequences. After Hurricane Katrina, gas prices soared all up and down the East Coast as fuel became scarce. In WWII, even the US had to implement rationing to ensure vital supplies ended up where they were needed the most. Hell, we’re still seeing shortages and price hikes as a result of COVID. Our world is more interconnected than its ever been. It’s impossible to predict which local disasters can cause problems on a national or even global scale.
@@thepedrothethethe6151 a real story, in 1878 krakatoa erupted and sent shockwaves that circled the earth 4 times. It was so loud they heard it 3000 miles away.

You do it cheaper, get your $ 116k excavator, your operator and other groundwork equipment to move the earth out of the way . Personal I thought that was cheap
that’s if you can get to a bunker you have at least 8 minutes for nukes arrival, Russia’s nukes go much faster than an US nukes. RU 26.000 to 30.000 MPH. US is about 20.000 to 26.000 MPH. Russia has at least 20 minutes to get to its nuke shelters.

you probably wear a mask to stay "safe"
@@benc8747 The difference being that masks help reduce transmission of something that actually exists and is reality. Bunkers just protect against something that CAN happen, but highly unlikely.

Well, now, I am really thinking about bunkers.
But only in US there are companies like this that design and build bunkers.
It would be really difficult to design something like this with all of those life support systems in EU.
The reason why they are not for sale in the EU is because nobody is so crazy to buy one. In case a real scenario happens, a bunker won't help. In case something mild happens (like covid) you dont need a bunker. Conclusion: bunkers are pointless.

@m i dont think it is every house but instead there was at one point enough shelter capacity to hold every citizen in public bunkers and the like but its a bit more relaxed now, to be fare they had good reason to want to prepare for an invasion given the neighborhood at the time
This fits between scam and legit concern.
And just hit me, sewage and water supply. How would that work... Is it connected to the regular mains.
I was wondering that too. I didn’t see any wells or septic systems. Also, where is all the life support systems and how are they powered? It seems like an add-on to your house instead of a separate self-sustaining unit.
Some of the preppers have water supplies for X amount of time. Some have water collection depending on their climates. It’s a fascinating world, and I’m thankful I’m not too worried to join it
A commercially-sized, properly maintained septic tank can last a lifetime or longer for a single family. As for water, there are systems that can convert urine and other waste-water to clean water (like on the ISS), and others that tap into well water and filter it through an RO system, not to mention that anyone can buy bottled water by the truckload and it only takes 1/4gal per adult to wash and rinse with a sponge bath. It's also important to note that radiation or civil conflict wouldn't prevent you from surfacing unless you were near a direct hit of a nuclear explosion or in a densely populated area; in which case you've built your bunker in the wrong place. They should be built near a natural well, far away from any metropolitan areas. And let's be real, a hole in the ground (single entrance, single exit) is not sufficient for safety, so you would either need a series of connected bunkers with multiple entrances and exits with some concealed OR build the entrance to the bunker inside of a secured house inside of a secured compound. A real sense of security is expensive, but even with all of that, a major military power could turn your secure compound/home/bunker into a crater from an unmanned drone by pressing a button.
THAT is a very important topic. Every place has a different method, depending on the designer of the bunker.
I myself, dug a hole and built my own with sand bags and barbed wire.
My septic is planned to be a methane digester. That's the wisest way to use those nutrients. It turns to compost at some point. I'm thinking of using a sleep number bed for a gas bladder to store the methane. It's a work in progress. Its money that stop all forward movement.

@@unbekanntunbekant4587 there are many entrance/exit options including tank door 25/50 ton jacks which let you escape a flipped tank.

Looking for this comment😂
Have these bunkers actually ever been seriously tested? Something tells me that most of these bunkers will fail in a doomsday scenario.
They’re a sham lol.
You can break into most with a toolkit. The only useful bunkers are for natural disasters like hurricanes and tornadoes. Nuclear bunkers are stupid. In a post nuclear world, military grade explosives will be easy to access, so even the most advanced of bunkers will be broken into with relative ease.
Ironically enough, these loonies building shelters won’t survive long in a post apocalyptic world. Everyone and their mother will be after their holes in the ground filled to the brim with ammunition, food, purified water and weaponry. They’re a big target. They’re genuinely dumbasses if they think they’re going to be able to use up their 2 year or god knows how long supply of food and water before someone breaks into that bunker.
They’re just glorified coffins
Maybe they should insurance their bunker to get their money back 😀
If the hydrogen bomb is detonated literally on top of the nuclear bunker no, but if it’s in a remote area or anywhere away from the center of the explosion, it will most likely survive.
It best to have nuclear bunkers if you live in the countryside, away from any military installations and etc.
If you studied nuclear warfare, you’ll know that one bomb may not be just enough to eliminate an ICBM military post, in old Soviet declassified files, you’ll see more then 5 nukes invested in taking one military post, due to just how well bunkered and spread out the missiles are.
You seem to think that the Chinese and Russians are going to waste hydrogen bombs to *surface* *detonate* every boogaloo hideout, when it’s far from it.

@@Rich-yj4ub might be enough time for musk to get your ass to mars though
@@Rich-yj4ub That's not actually true if you aren't too near the centre of a blast (and presumably if you are you probably didn't survive long enough to worry anyway), it's certainly true that the contamination in some areas that are directly hit would still be detectable for centuries but the initial radiation would drop to an 'increased risk of developing cancer in the long term but nonetheless very survivable level' very quickly (radiation levels would be 90% lower than the moment of the blast after about 24 hours or thereabouts and 99% lower after just 72 hours- thereafter you are unlikely to get sick from just going outside at least in the short term), and even at the blast zone itself the radiation levels would only be directly dangerous for a matter of weeks. The real threat after the first few days would be contaminated water supplies/food supplies, which if eaten really would still kill you. The caveats are of course that it does depend on the type/size of bomb that was used/wind direction/whether they blew it in the air before it hit the ground or not/how many were used overall but generally speaking you have a pretty good chance of surviving if you can make it to some sort of shelter to ride out those first few days + secure clean food and water. Also I do recommend you go and look this stuff up, it's quite interesting to read about.

Bunker doesn't have a kitchen.... does have 30k worth of guns... priorities.
On the surface, this level of prepping can seem ridiculous. Even more ridiculous once you climb down the ladder and see what's below the surface. $30k in guns and ammo and some Mountain Home stashed away does not a survivor make. Guys like that, it's hard to take serious. I mean, c'mon, $30k in ammo alone doesn't get you very far these days, and that stuff doesn't last forever, especially if you store it in a hastily built bunker that's not humidity controlled.
But the logic behind it isn't as farfetched as a lot of folks tend to think. Since the founding of the US, we've faced a major upheaval once every 60-80 years. The Revolution, the Civil War, WWII and the Cold War, all had the potential to be existential threats. Going by the numbers, we're due for another big one, and there are a ton of candidates. As far as pandemics go, COVID was rather mild, but as more and more humans walk the earth and more and more diseases get chances to form vectors, the chances of something much worse popping up grows every year. Half the West Coast is a potential tsunami killing field. The San Andreas Fault may or may not let go with the next big one. Climate change raises the chances of more and more powerful hurricanes aimed at the East Coast with each passing season, and on top of everything else, we've got humans to deal with, the crazy bastards. Something has to give.
When you take all that into account, having a bunker might not seem like such a bad idea, if you can afford it. Even if you can't afford it, some level of preparedness makes sense. I'll grant you that learning useful skills will probably get you further than living out your wildest Fallout fantasies. Even something as simple as knowing how to apply a tourniquet or splint a broken limb can dramatically increase your chances of survival in the event of a worst case scenario. But, if you've got the money and you plan to do it right, why not take extra precautions? Best case scenario, you never need it and you can pass it on to your kids when you croak. Worst case, you give them the best shot at survival you possibly can.

Most people are basically decent, so long as they’re not desperate. In the short term, if help comes quickly enough, civility will endure. But what happens when it doesn’t?
What’s more, a localized disaster can have far reaching consequences. After Hurricane Katrina, gas prices soared all up and down the East Coast as fuel became scarce. In WWII, even the US had to implement rationing to ensure vital supplies ended up where they were needed the most. Hell, we’re still seeing shortages and price hikes as a result of COVID. Our world is more interconnected than its ever been. It’s impossible to predict which local disasters can cause problems on a national or even global scale.

that’s if you can get to a bunker you have at least 8 minutes for nukes arrival, Russia’s nukes go much faster than an US nukes.
RU 26.000 to 30.000 MPH.
US is about 20.000 to 26.000 MPH.
Russia has at least 20 minutes to get to its nuke shelters.
@@matthewxd5063 i mean there are some us nukes in europe so i dont think russians will have so much time
Most modern nukes aren’t going to differentiate much between your normal house and a bunker. Most of these bunkers are mere placebos and feel good toys.
@@Dimaz42 lol same at that point !
Can you imagine how quickly those rich people would tear each other apart inside that bunker?
I’d love a bunker! I have the yard for it, but not the money.
All you need is a shovel and determination
Interesting choice of music, almost makes it seem like it’s a joke.
Anyone who does this is a joke.
"People have a variety of fears"
And we're going to make bank on that! Yee-haw!!
ATLAS shelters actually produce and make some the best survival bunkers.
