Detailed tour of a 30 MILLION dollar bunker

My first thought was "How the hell do you spend 30 mill on a bunker" but after watching this I'm like "How the HELL did that ONLY cost 30 mill to build??!!" - Amazing bunker, amazing piece of work, wow.. Just stunning

[@wiphaweetabjannaracha7041]

£30 Billion rather

[@kingjamesgorden3]

Looks great. I still wonder how a 100k powers that whole thing. That doesn’t add up to me…

[@yolandria]

30 mil was the upgrades/fix's. The main construction was paid by the US tax payer.

[@kingjamesgorden3]

What he spent is somewhat equivalent to 1960’s dollars in the USAFs cost to build it. The Atlas silo cost about 1.5m to build in the 60’s, which about 12m today. Add 3m for the missile itself, that’s 24m today for 36m total in today’s dollars. Buying these silos is relatively cheap depending on the model, because the government rarely ever worries about turning any sort of profit. So his 30m was absolutely spent almost in its entirety on the upgrades. Believe me, having seen what the DoD does with discarded or surplus gear that cost an arm and a leg to build or contract out, I am keenly aware of how much is wasted. However, these silos are actually quite affordable.

[@kingjamesgorden3]

My personal opinion is that 1. ALL these sites are known about by the government, so that’s a huge negative. 2. The big question is, will you even make it there? I mean, if SHTF, are you sure your private helicopter is functioning, and if it’s not, you really trusting your safety to the roads, where everyone and their mother will be headed to the same region to their own bunkers? Which leads to 3. Once the word is out there are bunkers, everyone along your planned route to “safety” will be either trying to join you or figure out a way to take your place. Which is why if you’re going this route, it would be way better to go into a community like they have in places like SD or MT. They have old weapons shelters that you can buy for 50k, and outfit as you like. But EVERYONE there has to contribute something with regards to employment to the community, and they have their own security (not just two guys at a gate). The biggest concern to me for one of these shelters is the air. They built systems to filter the air, but these were never built to repel ground assaults. Unless he has made significant improvements to that ventilation system, not just for fallout but to camouflage it from folks who can clearly see the giant bunker right there. If they can’t get in, they may try and force you out. Given the amount he spent, I would imagine alternate air supplies have probably been put in place.

As an hvac engineer, i dont know much about a bunker of this type, but common sense would tell me, you should have overflow pans under your air handlers, and your condensate lines should be run into a water treatment still so the moisture that your air conditioning pull from the air can be recovered and recycled. There should be no waste in a facility like this. Curious where you have placed your condensor s also, as thermal transfer can also be used in creative ways to heat or cool space without wasting energy.

Those inside the bunkers calmly watched happy in the knowledge that they were safe and sound inside their perfect little community with all the creature comforts they required, and then some!

I think a lot of people are just curious about this because everyone thinks about this scenario. I think its perfectly legitimate to talk about what people would do if they had that themselves and put themselves in that postion. What do you do when you have a pharmacy, a dentist office, and a doctors office with no pharmacist, dentist, or doctor. The pharmacist may not be so important but to get the drugs in there since they are certified you would need one working there so they probably just have some otc drugs and antibiotics. Its possible they arent telling people everything but he sounded pretty honest when he said the place is basicaly staffed by a couple building managers. I know he said that there are owners that can fill these roles but that relies on everyone making it there. Theres a ton of variables that could be an issue that people enjoy thinking through but obviously it would be aweseom to own a unit regardless. But without discussing the pros and cons how to people start making their own plans. I can afford a unit theoretically but Id still lean on getting my own at home eventually. Im open minded but that requires thinking about these things.

Yup. These things are nothing but scams aimed at naive paranoid rich people. Bunkers are literally the place where people die right after the disaster event. Hollywood movies have warped the minds of so many people that they have no clue how reality works. Even the rich owner would just jump on a plane or helicopter and fly to a place that is safer. That's only if they survive the initial event, considering these people do not regularly live in this bunker, they would be long dead before they would have time to get to the bunker. So stupid.
