Just looking at the thing made me claustrophobic. I think I would rather die than try to live in one.

I don’t think I could make myself go down one of these unless perhaps it had at least two – preferably 3 escape hatches. This is due to my claustrophobia. What if a big tree blew on top of the entrance and no one knows your there because you’ve hid it so well from the public. What a slow way to die. Just my take.

In reply to Robert. That was my thought, Robert! Fridge, Washing Machine, Lighting, security system and a huge friggin entertainment unit. That's a lot of space taken up by things that won't work if a) there's a zombie apocalypse, b) Kim and Don get nasty or c) you live in South Australia.

In reply to Susanne. Well, people in Lightning Ridge, Australia live underground. The rest of us live on top of it.

My biggest question is this: if there is a need for this and you must go underground to stay alive there will be no sources on the outside to provide tv channels to watch, drinking water, etc so what makes this an advantage for people?

In reply to joanie.

Under the floor. They are ten foot w/o the floor and 7′ ceilings w/ a floor. I watched a show on these exact shelters. They have trap doors where you can store even 55 gal drums. And the storage runs the length of the shelter. What I don’t see in this pic is the escape hatch, usually located in the main bedroom and follows a tunnel some several feet a way before surfacing.

You get “deep marine batteries” (I guess that’s what they’re called) and keep them charged up. Now HOW you do this is a mystery to me, but the air system gets a big crank and a bio/nuclear/chemical filter and so I guess cranking the battery charger could work the same way. What else do you have to do after you get sick to death of the 900 DVD’s you stored? LOL!

As long as that camera is visible and in the open that container might as well be too.
