    I've been in the building trades for 50 yrs & I'm absolutely amazed with the material used, the amount of labor, & the lack of foresight. The planning I'm sure worked out good & the structure itself if built above ground may be a well built idea but this is a waste of money & effort considering the material available today that could be used. In ten years this thing may be there but it's going to rot & decay making it a death trap for the fool hardy. This is an absolute disaster in the making. Has anyone there ever thought about what happens to raw wood buried in the ground? It rots from moisture & this will suck up every ounce of water around it. Mold & mildew will take over this palace first. The rest will be downhill from there. One heavy rain & you may even have an underground pond. You'll say I'm to critical or call me an a** but I have seen this before & sadly in 2024, I'm seeing it again.

    Issue number one, being in a low area it will flood, no amount of drainage can handle four inches of rain in ten minutes, issue two any form of wood utilization is a guarantee of rot. Just buy a container, raise it at least four feet above ground on a poured concrete foundation with cables attaching to the ground on all sides.

      It seems that they had a ready supply of nice lumber. Also, they didn't have to pay for someone to deliver a shipping container. This cellar/shelter will be good for generations. Also, an underground steel shipping container would have to be reinforced on the top and sides to withstand the distributed force of the ground around and above it. Shipping containers are designed to take most of the forces at the corners, not against the entire side walls and roof.
