Good point. You die of suffocation, if their isn't an independent source of air, should the main entrance be blocked. Secondly, you would have to dig your way out, from the shelter, from under what might be 4-10 feet of dirt. Not cool dude.
@@tomriggle3217 That is why you need either a battery system, or a generator of some kind. If it is a "gas" powered, better have lots of gas because, depending on the catastrophy, it might be many many months or years to get the grid back up.
@@brianrichard8310 It would be pretty tough. To survive in there if you didn't have electricity., you'd have no ventilation., No lights. Common Sense tells us it would be kind of tough.
@@tomriggle3217 my point exactly, my friend. It becomes a tomb, instead of a womb. Backup power supplies are becoming commonplace now. What with the advent of new battery formulas, the future looks very promising when looking for a tertiary power supply. In 6 months, maybe a year from now, graphene solid state batteries will deliver three times the power for the same weight of Lithium Ion batteries. A "true" bunker will have at least three sources of power, and a means to recharge said batteries.
Why not use 12 volt lighting , refrigerator rather than 110 and 220? You could put some solar panels up top and they could feed pawer to you as long as they are not damaged or covered. Possible you could after an event - suit up, take panels out and place them then come back in and shower . Feed to batteries in bunker. much smaller gas generator and much less fuel. No washer, dryer, dishwasher doing it that way but I think you could do that by hand. Run small Gen set if you want to run microwave/ need to charge batteries. Do you run a radio Antena out to receive /send signal? I would have shower in entrance way. You come thru a change shower room on the way into the bunker is how I think that should be set up.
Although I cannot afford a bunker, I did notice a few things. 1) First and foremost, only one way in and only way out? Both doors open to the outside = if you piss me off and don't let me in, I will just blockade your door and let you die in your expensive coffin. 2) Did not see much storage space. A stockpile of survival food takes up a lot of space. 3) A lot of unnecessary luxuries, a dishwasher, seriously? I think SHTF you have plenty of free time to save energy and do your own dishes. 4) Was not mentioned, but how much safe water storage do they have outside and is it secure and free from possible contamination? 5) Was not mentioned, power source? You are using 220V that is a huge drain on a battery bank. Are they planning on SHTF always having grid tied power? 6) Was not mentioned, air circulation is not good without air removal as well. What kind of exhaust system is designed into the bunker? CO2 builds up and doesn't matter how much clean air you "try" to pump in if there is nowhere for the old air (CO2) to leave the bunker. 7) Was not mentioned, maybe the most important, waste removal? Did see a flushing toilet, but that is human waste, what about common trash? Are you planning on leaving the bunker every 2 or 3 days to remove trash build up? If so, see #1.
On the subject of a dishwasher its much better to use a dishwasher to conserve on water most people will waste an ass ton of water washing dishes by hand where as a cheap and I mean the 200 dollar cheap ass dishwasher only uses about 5 to 6 gallons of water to do 4 to 6 days worth of dishes and as for the power if you do not run the heat cycle a dishwasher hardly uses power.. Also try as you might you nor any person will NEVER get a dish as clean and sanitary as a dishwasher can do using 160 degree water witch is the temp used to sanitize on any dishwasher. If they can afford that big of a bunker I am sure the guy made sure they know they need a generator and battery bank so when the gen is running to charge battery's is when you would do your dishes and wash your cloths and heat the water. dont get me wrong I could be wrong about the gen but god i hope not and they do not just think there will always be power otherwise they are going to die fast lol
These folks clearly have many tens (even hundreds) of thousands of dollars to spend on batteries and power generation for all that electrical equipment. Maybe they are shelling out for hydrogen electrolysis? Why do they always put the filter inside the shelter? Now the fallout is building up in a metal box next to the bunks!
@@ZR195M ....and where are they gonna keep the fuel (oil,propane,kerosene,etc.) to keep that generator going? I'm quite wet-behind-the-ears when it comes to all this "mechanical" stuff but has anyone designed a generator that doesn't run on 'fossil' fuel? If there's a need for a bomb-shelter and you only have electrical power from a generator,how's that gonna play out? Ya need something to power the generator,don't you?? We have a fairly new dishwasher (4-5 yrs. old) and on the 'energy-efficient & water saving cycle' it takes/uses 3 X 5 gal. buckets of water (that's 15 gallons of water each time)!! How do I know this,you may ask (?) - we've never had any of our 3 dishwashers 'piped in & out' due to possible leaks. When we have a full load, we attach the hoses (water going in and draining out) to the faucet via a "portable dishwasher attachment" and we wanted to find out just how much water it would 'consume' on the short cycle....hence the 5 gallon buckets! :-)
You made a point to comment on the locks of the door into the bunker, that they lock if drilled out but you did not show or comment on the hinges. The hinges surprisingly were facing out instead of on the inside. I hope those are not simple hinges. Even if they are not, they are vulnerable and would be the week link to the door. That is where I would attack to get in.
The problem with attacking a bunker with people in it, is that they can hear you. You start drilling, and you catch steel penetrator rounds filling that little 8 square foot space.
Gordon Waite They know this, it is for the Police to nab a "bunker owning suspect" because if the bunker is too secure, what would prevent the owner from barracading himself in his bunker to avoid arrest?
@SCP 096 Thosebshelters need to have a heavy duty air exchanger, especially if you intend to cram 5 to 6 people into one. The air would last maybe an hour at the most. Those bunkers are only for a week or two at the most. If you want something that is good for longer, they would have to be 4 times the size, and include a lot of different things than these "weekender" type shelters, don't have.
@@brianrichard8310 And if it's for only a week or two I would argue that the dishwasher (maybe even the washer/dryer) is a complete waste of space. I don't even get the bunk beds considering they had two bedrooms. Honestly I don't even get the whole radiation bunker idea. If it get that bad I don't think I want to be here anymore. If you're going to have a bunker for more then a few hours (like a tornado shelter) I would probably build a seperate utility room with all that noisy equipment. And btw that toilet seem to have a pretty weak outlet. It's not going to flush out a big dump very well.
Why do people think you'll never leave your bunker? You can totally walk outside during pretty much any disaster, outside of nuclear fallout, and that's good after a few days.
No hand crank for air filter so if something goes wrong with it or no power. Plus that thing is loud as hell. I like the ones atlas build with the Swiss made air filters
I've seen several bunker/underground shelter videos and all of them show almost anything you can think of. Color me simple but what if someone is injured while getting down there who eventually succumbs to their wounds. where is their body going? are we hanging pine tree air fresheners from them and setting them at the kitchen table? Just a thought
What kitchen table? Why have a washing machine with no linens, towels, clothing storage? no food storage, nowhere to just relax, read a book, play a board game. What are 8 people going to do down there all day? Sleep, shower, and eat? I'd use one of those rooms for food storage, have a folding table and chairs, and use the other room for an indoor vertical garden with led grow lights. Need place to exercise. He says installing cameras on trees, but no location of where those images will be viewed from inside. And as always, where is the water coming from? Where is the electricity coming from? where is the air coming from?
Yep and be greeted by a few rounds of hurt. But if it was my design, I'd make sure there are like 3 sets of L-shaped brackets on the door and adjacent wall (use them for coat hangers when not trying to stop the zombies). First sign of intruders, you lay your steel/wooden beams in these brackets. Door isn't going anywhere.
why would they place the bathroom in the middle where everyone walks threw? There is also no common area or kitchen table area? I would have placed bathroom in extension room and placed all sleeping areas at back with secondary escape hatch. Just my opinion
An escape hatch could also give away the location of the shelter or give access for someone to break in. It’s better to have one door to guard then have two. I’m sure there’s plenty of room to have a kitchen table if they want.
So....... Aside from end of the world, zombie apocalypse stuff... something like this would be a great guest room/gaming room. Some place your buddies can crash when the party went to long. Some place your brother can stay, and you guys can hang out. A real Man Cave. You could build two, and make them join-able. and put one of those Home Depot big home sheds over the top... so hey, you just built a small house in which most all of your stuff is protected from serious storms, and is rather energy efficient on your heating bill. I'm sure with a certain amount of effort, one could do this up nicely.
Nice body storage bunks. You might want to have the door open in and the hinges not on the outside genius. A gas water heater=bomb. Is there an outlet blast valve for airflow??? You put any door closing off from the air source. Hopefully as I write this their still alive
In the event of a storm or disasters how would you tell the outside world that you are in there if you found you could not get out. Do you have something that could sound on the outside .
I know this is a few years old but can anyone tell me if this style bunker would work after an EMP? Seem’s like an awful lot of electricity required to save this family... so what if an EMP occurs, do they have 6-12 months supply of fuel for a generator? Just curious.
tealosophy Consumer Reports did a test years ago and found that it takes less energy and water to use a dishwasher than to wash dishes in hot water by hand, provided the drying cycle is not used (dry by hand). The newer energy saver dishwashers make that even more efficient. The dishwasher here will actually save energy and water if run only when full.
Because staying clean means staying healthy. That many people in that small of a space need to stay as clean as possible not to mention the psychological issues with being stuck in a hole with the stink of ass everywhere.
What is gained by being buried? Wouldn't it be equally or more effective if it was set above ground and then surrounded by 40+ inches of earth & concrete? If it was set above ground you would have excellent visibility, more escape options, no dampness issues, plenty of fresh air, and so on.
I see an easy solution if the first barrier is compromised. Since it's what 16ft down to next level. Some where along stair case have several outlets where water can enter the area. Fill that compartment with water. Of course you would need to have drain to remove water later and have a seal on the door but if you are going to spend that much money on a shelter a couple thousand more bucks shouldn't matter. [I think have each step with screened outlets so that they can't be plugged to prevent water from entering area. Have the screen go almost the full length and height of each step. Expanded metal]
Why don't you use sliding doors on the inside. Will last longer than the folding doors. You can put a sliding door between panels and it will look much better.
ok so.... what happens after the nukes take out all the electrical. Don't anyone ever thought about "after" surviving???? If it's that bad what exactly are you surviving for... like really. I suppose the family will equip the bunker with WI-FI too??
They are only 16 feet underground. If a nuke hits, their shelter is just an expensive coffin. If they survive the blast, they die from fallout with their air pump and water supply.
we have a home made shelter one thing I've learned any shelter can be penetrated all shelters have a weekness you need to come up with a system for you customers so where if there system or shelter is taken over by a breach they can eliminate the problem mist shelters can be madE vacant by opening a propane canister by the air intake
Dishwasher really? If you are down there I think you would have plenty of time to wash a few dishes by hand. That space would be better used for food, medicine in my opinion.
There are eight beds..so the minimal capacity suggested is eight persons... It is clear that installation does not fit enough resources like hot water or energy for cooking and washing machine. It is supposed were are talking about a real fallout and all the consequences that brings, so where will be gotten the energy needed for sustaining the lifestyle as it is considered in this shelter? This implies also fresh clean water, sooner or later even having a big tank, the reserve will exhaust, and any mechanism considered for a recycling properly filtered and put again into the tank will need energy...and so the problem continues. I think in the best case, this shelter could help for a few days of protection like tornadoes, or another short term natural disaster, but for bigger events like a nuclear fallout, I fear this shelter only can delay the end for the refugees into it, unless a miraculous appearing of "the cavalry" (i.e. government troops , National Guard, Police, etc etc) to send those people to a bigger shelter with long term resources.
Does that air filter make that noise 24/7? Where is the generator and how does that work? How long can a family live down there if they had to in case of an emergency situation? There’s not a lot of cabinet space so where would someone store food and supplies? I only saw one way in and one way out, shouldn’t there be an emergency exit at the other end of the bunker?
with all the polar shift / magnetic thing going on these days, what if a watertight bunker goes under water for 1 to 2 months I wonder how do you get fresh air from that?
Like anything, the filter wouldn't necessarily have to run constantly. Rather, it would be used to cycle periodically. A timer would be nice, to auto cycle.
And where are you storing the used compost at for 8 people? lol or the replacement coconut husks or peet or what ever your going to use in the toilet? Too bad we ran out of food because we ran out of room but we got plenty of room your human shit haha.
where does the water come from for the sink and bathroom? if power goes out does the water still work ? how does the toilet and spetic work? does it have its own septic system
I dont see a blast valve any where so If there is an explosion the shock wave will just destroy your bunker and everything it, i would also have a submarine door rate after the hatch making a mudroom also making the bunker gas tight and water tight. I would look at a really well made shelter by some real professionals like Ron from atlas survival shelters and take some notes and you would be able to actually say that your bunkers are safe

what would happen if an earthquake or anything else would cave ONLY the steps to get down and people were already in the bunker? how could they get out?
who says he can't put another bunker above ground hooked up to it but main reason undergrounds is its say same temp all year round so don't have keep sucking power didn't you here him say it was 90 outside 60 in there they have cameras they will see everything only way you going find them is if you out metal detecting haha its like a fort for adults
A dishwasher? For a bunker...really!?? I get making the place cozy, but that’s a bit ridiculous. The owner could’ve added a useful cabinet or a wine rack in that spot!
The filter will eventually expire. And why don't you put gas masks in there because you might want to go outside for some reason, or something on the inside might fail
LOL If the world went to shit bad enough you're in a nuclear bunker and there's a dude with a working compressor and jackhamer and truck and to somehow know where this bunker is than that dude is a FUCKING LEGEND.
Be Lieve The last big panic was in the 1950's and many older homes still have water filled bunkers! That's the biggest problem with these metal prefab bunkers.....water seepage.
Didn't this guy filming this get busted by the.law and end up in prison? Also heard his bunker business went belly up and bankrupted him. Not sure if this is true, just asking if anyone else heard this story?
Better hope they're not led. Shit fucks with your natural circadian rhythm, sleep cycles, eyes & much more. Fluorescent isn't much better. Standard old-school yellow lighting is best for your eyes and body because it more mimics our sun
LIke you are really going to have electric power. I live where hurricane Michael hit. Most of the big home professional generators broke down in one or two weeks. Try to get service for that even in good times. It will be best not to survive a nuclear war.
lol super secure door... with the hinges on the outside!
I saw that to
And locks that the intruder can use to lock you in ....
Needs a secondary exit. If the first exit gets blocked that bunker becomes your tomb.
Good point. You die of suffocation, if their isn't an independent source of air, should the main entrance be blocked. Secondly, you would have to dig your way out, from the shelter, from under what might be 4-10 feet of dirt. Not cool dude.

@@tomriggle3217 That is why you need either a battery system, or a generator of some kind. If it is a "gas" powered, better have lots of gas because, depending on the catastrophy, it might be many many months or years to get the grid back up.

ok so.... what happens after the nukes take out all the electrical. Don't anyone ever thought about "after" surviving???? If it's that bad what exactly are you surviving for... like really. I suppose the family will equip the bunker with WI-FI too??
You believe you are the discoverer of EMP.
They are only 16 feet underground. If a nuke hits, their shelter is just an expensive coffin. If they survive the blast, they die from fallout with their air pump and water supply.
16 feet underground is plenty, actually. 4 feet of dirt over your head pretty well guarantees survival.
From a nuke? Ok, keep thinking that.
no, seriously it actually 3 feet of dirt over your head it of course wont stop a direct blast, but tit will certainly stop fallout
it is ok as long as you got power coming from outslde in case of black out all the appliances inside are not going to be of any use
Where's the lounge / TV room and back-up emergency exit ?
we have a home made shelter one thing I've learned any shelter can be penetrated all shelters have a weekness you need to come up with a system for you customers so where if there system or shelter is taken over by a breach they can eliminate the problem mist shelters can be madE vacant by opening a propane canister by the air intake

Dishwasher really? If you are down there I think you would have plenty of time to wash a few dishes by hand. That space would be better used for food, medicine in my opinion.
There are eight beds..so the minimal capacity suggested is eight persons... It is clear that installation does not fit enough resources like hot water or energy for cooking and washing machine. It is supposed were are talking about a real fallout and all the consequences that brings, so where will be gotten the energy needed for sustaining the lifestyle as it is considered in this shelter? This implies also fresh clean water, sooner or later even having a big tank, the reserve will exhaust, and any mechanism considered for a recycling properly filtered and put again into the tank will need energy...and so the problem continues. I think in the best case, this shelter could help for a few days of protection like tornadoes, or another short term natural disaster, but for bigger events like a nuclear fallout, I fear this shelter only can delay the end for the refugees into it, unless a miraculous appearing of "the cavalry" (i.e. government troops , National Guard, Police, etc etc) to send those people to a bigger shelter with long term resources.
Does that air filter make that noise 24/7? Where is the generator and how does that work? How long can a family live down there if they had to in case of an emergency situation? There’s not a lot of cabinet space so where would someone store food and supplies? I only saw one way in and one way out, shouldn’t there be an emergency exit at the other end of the bunker?
Nice 👌 I subscribed
If, by some circumstance, you loose power from the Municipal Services, what back-up power supply do your bunkers have?
Omfg no one can get into this heavy duty door with outward facing hinges. 😝
with all the polar shift / magnetic thing going on these days, what if a watertight bunker goes under water for 1 to 2 months I wonder how do you get fresh air from that?
filter ruined it. that loud jet noise would get old within minutes. toilet should be compost.
Like anything, the filter wouldn't necessarily have to run constantly. Rather, it would be used to cycle periodically. A timer would be nice, to auto cycle.
And where are you storing the used compost at for 8 people? lol or the replacement coconut husks or peet or what ever your going to use in the toilet? Too bad we ran out of food because we ran out of room but we got plenty of room your human shit haha.
AMERICAN LIMO x
Incinerator might be better. Does require a gas line, but nothing left.
LOL some people have too much money. How many days do they plan on staying in this bunker? A week is max I bet.
where does the water come from for the sink and bathroom? if power goes out does the water still work ? how does the toilet and spetic work? does it have its own septic system
I dont see a blast valve any where so If there is an explosion the shock wave will just destroy your bunker and everything it, i would also have a submarine door rate after the hatch making a mudroom also making the bunker gas tight and water tight. I would look at a really well made shelter by some real professionals like Ron from atlas survival shelters and take some notes and you would be able to actually say that your bunkers are safe
Anybody that needs a dishwasher in their survival bunker, simply will not survive.
Wow! What does something like that cost?!
Looks like a great place to be sardined up for years....and years.......and years !
Instead of the bi-fold door have you thought about using a pocket door to conserve space?
The toilet didn't flush
Hinges should be one up one down so door cannot be lifted off the hinges?
At the first part I was extremely confused if the staircase was leading up or leading down. Seriously, it looks so weird!
Where is the Butler, maid, desk clerk, postman, etc! Is that for a tornado or end of the world?
Where's the alernate exit? Don't all bunkers (or shouldn't they all) have a 2nd alertnate exit?
Damn dude I'm getting dizzy/.;
(/.;)

Couldn't the air filter be behind a wall or concealed somewhere quieter?.
what would happen if an earthquake or anything else would cave ONLY the steps to get down and people were already in the bunker? how could they get out?
Who puts hinges on the outside of the safe door? Lock the door all you want I'll pop the hinge and get in on the other side.
How about an update? Trashed or still working?
how much did that unit cost?
Styx62 Ga and I'm thinking, u buy a bunker to survive the end, but in the end money won't mean shit
Are they still around or did they go under and collapse?
The standard hinges were on the outside?? knock the pins out and walk in lol
Can u send them filters to ontario..going to build a shelter..we dont have much here
who says he can't put another bunker above ground hooked up to it but main reason undergrounds is its say same temp all year round so don't have keep sucking power didn't you here him say it was 90 outside 60 in there they have cameras they will see everything only way you going find them is if you out metal detecting haha its like a fort for adults
No the main reason it's unground is for blast and radiation protection.
Those aren’t bi fold doors tho
where is the co2 vent and blast valve.
A dishwasher? For a bunker...really!??
I get making the place cozy, but that’s a bit ridiculous. The owner could’ve added a useful cabinet or a wine rack in that spot!
which government official ordered this one ,or state
Not a good design.
Cold metal walls will be running wet water.
Exits bad, loud fan no backup
The filter will eventually expire. And why don't you put gas masks in there because you might want to go outside for some reason, or something on the inside might fail
who would want to survive the end of the world without a coffee pot?!
water supply? sewage treatment? power? This should've been shown completed before shown.
Concrete can be jackhammer if they really want to get in?
LOL If the world went to shit bad enough you're in a nuclear bunker and there's a dude with a working compressor and jackhamer and truck and to somehow know where this bunker is than that dude is a FUCKING LEGEND.
I have been look at your bunkers and how about emps what can be done to protect from EMPA
Donald Kosse faraday cage
How does this function if the power grid goes down ?
You could rent this thing out like regular house
What's their darned website? It's not in the video description or the "About" part of the channel
So when is the end of the world? I need to set my clock. In about 5 years people will be selling off these bunkers for cheap.
Be Lieve The last big panic was in the 1950's and many older homes still have water filled bunkers! That's the biggest problem with these metal prefab bunkers.....water seepage.
Wood looks nice, but invites mold/mildew.
Didn't this guy filming this get busted by the.law and end up in prison? Also heard his bunker business went belly up and bankrupted him. Not sure if this is true, just asking if anyone else heard this story?
Not like the Bunker at the end of the Woodside Road Industrial Estate Northern Ireland, which has a hotel grade kitchen.
how can a 10' × 50' add up to 920 sq. feet? that is 500 sq. ft. outside measurements.
+John Nelson they are also including the add on room and I'd imagine they add the entry way too
0:55 you can pop the pins out!
Question - are all of those LED lights or florescent?
Better hope they're not led. Shit fucks with your natural circadian rhythm, sleep cycles, eyes & much more. Fluorescent isn't much better. Standard old-school yellow lighting is best for your eyes and body because it more mimics our sun
How much would a design like this cost.
so this is in the uk
What if someone was in a wheelchair and needs to get in a underground bunker?
Cripples won't make it
could u tell me wat channel ur show is on
just don't eat Tacos before you have to go down in this for a week
Those rails are garbage. Is that door air tight?
lol that is bigger than my house!
I would like to get some literature on one of these I do not do computers please comment back
You have to get a grasp on the electric as long as the washer is not running it does not use shit for electric! Got it?
LIke you are really going to have electric power. I live where hurricane Michael hit. Most of the big home professional generators broke down in one or two weeks. Try to get service for that even in good times. It will be best not to survive a nuclear war.
where do they dump there trash or other things they don't need anymore like open cans and so on and so forth? ????????????????????
under the floor boards
The hinges on the second door ore on the outside. That is a weak point.
Where the power energy of the machine?!
