  • We pay TRIBUTE to the Fallen Heroes of the Titan 1 724/A Underground Missile Complex who died during construction in 1961. Four brothers recount the passing of their fathers and their own version of events as they meet for the very first time.
    It’s Been 2 YEARS Living At Our Nuclear Bunker. It’s our 2 Year anniversary episode and we teleport you back to DAY 1. Get ready as this episode is a long one.
    At ‘Nuclear Bunker Living’ we appreciate all your support as this journey will culminate in the acquisition and rehab of several bunker complexes across the Southwest.
    The 'Nuclear Bunker Living' You Tube series documents Nik's acquisition, exploration and renovation of America's largest and most hardened underground Nuclear Military Bunkers.

    Boy that’s a well done tearjerker. Great to see one of the mostly unknown casualties of the Cold War brought to the light of modern day.

      This was great that Nik and the crew have been so supportive of telling all of the history of the Titan. This may be a difficult story to tell, but nonetheless, it is still a part. They have become an important champion of keeping their memories alive, lest we forget.

      Having the truth finally revealed and to walk and witness where the accident happened was very important to the brothers. That they have been willing to walk this journey has shown a depth of character that can't be expressed in words. It was the honoring of their father

    its always sad looking back at memorials, and seeing how many people have died... and how young they were, they didnt even get to live out the entirety of their lives and its so heartbreaking that so many people today just forget and never think about all the freedoms they have had the cost of so many peoples lives. I get it, its burdensome to think about all the time.. but every time im reminded.. it just hurts a little bit more.

      But my father lived life to the fullest and would be very proud of his children and the fruitful lives we have lived. It the same with the Jasper's. Even though our fathers weren't there, they left an indelible mark on our hearts that still thrives today. They were both great men.

      I know, i don't mean to be pessimistic, it just hurts my heart. as a father myself, i couldnt imagine leaving my family alone, i want to be there to support them, and watch them grow... But I guess thats selfish of me

    • @buggyapp
      @buggyapp Před rokem +2

      @@thomasjay975 Not st all. You are not being selfish, you are being a good father. Speak into their hearts every day. My father died 9 days before his 30th birthday. My 30th was the most important to me. Same with my children. My son's and I have lived to see what my father didn't. That has been a great gift in the life I have lived. Strange thing that during the week he died, they started building the Berlin Wall. The week of my 30th the Berlin Wall fell.
