I have an idea where you've been. Not sure how much research you've done but there are 2 types of such shelters: BGS (bomb, gas, shrapnel) and BGSA (bomb, gas, shrapnel, nuclear). These were made for civilians, labourers, etc, not for military. These were built after WW2 and were quite well maintained until 1990. There are hundreds of them, hence the very first timestamp (map of shelters).

Thanks very much for translating everything!!

[@SauceBossN]

Thank you for talking about breathing protection while exploring and demonstrating how you do it! We see a lot of explorers in youtube who do not care as much!

[@bwturbex]

Yes, this is a big issue. It seems like most explorers are unaware of the great risks inside these places. Thanks for your comment!

I love that you explore things no one else does. Theres so many exploration channels now but you always show us something so different than we would ever have seen normally. Theres a bunch of bunker videos but this one has such a touch of danger and excitement that really sets you out from everyone. I love watching all your uploads and please never stop showing me these incredible places i dream of seeing with my own eyes. Best exploration channel in existence!

[@peterihrke9819]

Der 3.weltkrieg kommt näher und wir haben keine Bunker mehr für die zivilbevölkerung😢😢😢

[@lindamesa5122]

Guys, ur pushing ur luck in this toxic hell hole! Warm moist air breding more toxic mold! Ur clotes will be saturated ! All this waste infuriatiets me!! I was a child during the cold war!! Even gere in tfe States it was so scary! People building underground bunkers in their back garden!! The viles in that kit, one of them was iodine for consumption if infected by radiation!!! That operation room looks like something out of Saw seies!! Great video guys !!!🤯🤯🤯

[@bwturbex]

You're absolutely right - this place truly is a toxic hellhole, and we're always trying to be careful in such environments. The waste and decay were both fascinating and infuriating. Thank you for your support, and we'll keep pushing to bring you these incredible (and careful!) explorations.

[@verahartmann7072]

Das war so spannend, vielen Dank und passt gut auf euch auf lg

[@bwturbex]

Danke fürs Zuschauen! Hast du Lust auf mehr Bunker-Videos?

[@verahartmann7072]

@bwturbex naja schon, aber am liebsten mag ich schlösser und burgen

[@autisticrobotdragon17]

This bunker is such a beautiful example of natural decay, a true gem. Thank you for sharing it with us. Please post more of these, they are fascinating. I look forward to the next video!

[@martinmo2789]

The visuals of these locations are great, but what makes yout videos exceptional is your sound design. The best voice from Marco in urbex , ogether with great fx and music. All the best.

[@bwturbex]

Thanks a bunch, we really appreciate your comment! But I think you're mixing up the names of Till and me (Marco). Till is the narrator of our episodes.

Much appreciate it! Are you considering to grab a bundle yourself?

[@derrenleepoole]

Sick explore lads. Stay safe.

[@bwturbex]

Cheers, buddy. We wanted to go there for over a year. So happy to have finally explored it!

[@patriciahadley2374]

What a nightmare of a place! It's awful how all those man-made objects, in certain conditions, could become so disgusting, truly revolting. And that mould...oh, boy! It's a pity you didn't take an example of it to have it analyzed. It might have been a cure for some rare disease. Joking! Thankfully these hide-aways were never needed. Actually, I don't think either side would have pressed the red button, they were just testing each other out.Thanks for showing us these tomb-like structures, though I do think that sometimes you are taking a lot of risks. Anyway, top job as always. 🤩👍👍👍

[@bwturbex]

Seeing how man-made objects can decay and transform in such conditions is both fascinating and revolting. That mold was something else, and who knows, maybe it did have some hidden medical potential!

[@rainscratch]

It is all a giant chess game to create division, fear and control.

[@justarandomkid3275]

Great video , prolonged decay is eerily beautiful, unlike beautiful architecture made by man, time is something we have no control over, it’s rare to be able to see sights like this

[@Sh3rubii]

So glad you guys are back ♥ Happy Holidays~! ☃

[@henkduit4225]

Thanks again for this amzing footage. I didn't know there where bunkers like these in Hungary. Thanks guys!

[@bwturbex]

In fact, in that particular area, there are countless of these structures. Of course, most of them are underground. You won't believe how many Cold War shelters there are hidden under common residential houses in the Budapest area. We explored some of them - and one bunkers even was an underground radiation lab, with carpets in the underground corridors!

[@boblloyd75]

Good video, amazing how moisture and nature reclaims it's space.

[@bwturbex]

It's not just amazing - it's a bit scary too, especially with the structural instability and potential hazards creeping in. Nature's resilience can be both beautiful and a little unsettling.

[@LarryKaiser-x3c]

WOW!! incredible video,you guy's are top notch!! alot of credit for entering under/those conditions,good job!!

[@bwturbex]

Thanks! These working conditions were tough... We couldn't really breathe, it was super warm with these clothes, it was pitch-black, etc.

[@opheliaschlegel1725]

I just watched the video on the train ride home. After the first few minutes I had to put away my snacks and after the video I felt the need to wash my hands 😄 A really haunting and atmospheric video, hats off to you! Marco, maybe in the future you'll pack some gloves for Till, just in case 😇

[@bwturbex]

It's always great to hear that the video left such an impression - though I hope you got back to enjoying your snacks afterward! 😄 And you're not the first to suggest I should pack gloves for Till - seems like I need to start adding them to the essentials list! By the way, we just sent you a text on Patreon.

[@tomahzo]

Fantastic work! Very interesting site! I'd love to see more from eastern Europe for sure, so much stuff you never see otherwise!

[@bitkarek]

bunkers and cold war era is very cool topic! more pls! :)

[@bwturbex]

Cheers! So far, we have mostly explored NATO bunkers and other shelters from the West. It's so cool to step into the old bunkers from the other side of the Iron Curtain!

[@Sandjan90]

I am a little claustrophobic so I would not do so well down there with the mask on. Very interesting place, I am surprised it wasn’t all destroyed after its last use. Stay safe out there!

[@ericj.w.ruijssenaars3421]

Almost unimaginable that places like this do exist and are simply left to slowly decay. Imagine the time, energy and money used to build and equip them in the first place 😮. Thank you for taking us along on your explorations!

[@luisv7117]

You guys are the best the voice of the narrative make the film very interesting and video spectacular, thank you for uploading

Schön, eine andere Sichtweise zu sehen. Den gleichen Bunker sah ich schon bei jemand anderes, aber in die stark geruchsbildenden Bereiche sind die dann doch nicht rein, ob des Schimmels.Da sind auf jeden Fall Bilder für den Kalender 26 bei.

[@bwturbex]

Danke fürs Zusehen! Ja, tatsächlich hatten wir überlegt, diese Location im aktuellen Kalender abzudrucken! Die Fotos waren in der engeren Auswahl, aber dann haben wir uns doch für die anderen entschieden. Aber vielleicht wirklich dann 2026!

[@swifty_tube]

Eventually, these structures will likely collapse as the steel in the concrete decays, which destroys its structural capabilities. How long this would take depends on too many unknown variables. It's so damn cool to see this stuff before it's lost to time!

[@2zero660]

I believe that the decontamination kit you showed was for chemical blister agents such as mustard gas , it's contents are similar to an American version holding two liquids in fluid suspension. Don't be tempted to open them as the contents are hazardous if incorrectly applied

[@tracyb8193]

More bunkers please!

[@bwturbex]

Alright. ✅️

[@psychopoison]

Perfect setting for a new Metro Game

Amazing how much money was spent during the cold war for all these things to be left to rot

[@judiwilson7]

The ceilings seem quite low. And all that m9ld… so gross. I’d want to decontaminate all the gear, clothes, backpacks, everything. Scary place! But great images. Loved the early images of the Cold War face masks and clothes.

[@bwturbex]

You have to consider that the three of us are tall guys, with around 190 cm (75 in) each. And also the wide angle from the action cam distorts the depiction of the ceiling. Thanks for watching, Judi! It's great to have you.

[@DavidDavis-Photography]

Nach aktuellem Kenntnisstand handelt es sich um Gießkannenschimmel (Aspergillus fumigatus). Diese Pilzart ist als gesundheitsschädlich einzustufen und weist eine hohe Resistenz auf. Zudem wird er auf der FPPL-Liste (Fungal Priority Pathogens Liste) geführt. Der Bunker bietet ideale Lebensbedingungen für den Pilz, da er warm und feucht ist. Bitte seid vorsichtig!

[@rainscratch]

in such a toxic environment consider full body protection. Toxic spores etc can enter through eyes and skin.

[@bwturbex]

Yes, thank you! We have thought about that, too!

[@bitkarek]

actually some good quality FP2 masks can be very close of even as good as FP3, just not certified as such, coz the certification costs more money.

[@bwturbex]

Alright, but it's really important that the masks can handle asbestos and other hazards. With FFP3, you can be sure, and our health is worth the investment, I'd say.

[@kosfireandbushcraft]

i can help you translate any hungarian stuff. how do i go about it?

like something straight out of Fallout...

We thought the same! Or maybe a scene from Metro.

I don't think one mask is enough, would need another mask AND hazmat suit as well!! 😷🤮 11:20 - I thought you're going to say still water as you all were walking on top of boxes to avoid that 😀

Du hast recht, aber auch in Schlössern, Herrenhäuser, etc. sind wir schon über übelsten Schimmel gestolpert - oder sogar Asbest. Diese Gefahren können überall lauern. Darum kommen wir immer vorbereitet.
