- Not sure of the history of this fall out shelter, but it is well built and solid. This would be the place to hide during a nuclear war. If I was going to build a do it yourself bunker, I would make it much like this one. This video is rather long but I wanted to show as many details as possible. The bunker is located in cottage country, far away from any city. The cottage was recently built, and many construction materials were left in here.
I would clean it out. Free bunker dude.
It’s been 9 years, sometimes I wonder how people are doing
Same
This is a government design by Agency for Civil Defense, Atomic Energy Commission, which could be built for about $10K in 1960. It would provide blast overpressure protection to 15 psi, gamma ray attenuation greater than 100-fold relative to dose rates outdoors on the surface, and hooded, filtered air inlet and air exhaust to minimize introduction of small particles suspended in outdoor air during first hours or days after attack. Videographer observes crank for air pump. Enough supplies to allow four people to stay at least two weeks, when radiation declines enough to permit walk-out evacuation from the fallout zone. The rim of a chemical toilet is visible inside, but things really would have stunk pretty quick anyway. Conduits bring electricity and phone in event utilities survive. Pipe for insertion of surface sampling probe so that radiation levels can be measured before exit is also seen. (Note how beds avoid shaft area, where those levels are highest.)
Unfortunately, we have design faults here: Debris atop hatch might trap occupants; the entry shaft is supposed to have jackstands beneath the hatch so it can be levered open against several thousand pounds. Hatch was to be located as far from nearest building as that building is tall to limit impingement of rubble and fire. There should also be a sump for floodwater at base of shaft, with floor grading toward it from beds. Possibly, site drainage or sealing wasn’t adequately addressed or has deteriorated. Must cap entrance with reinforced concrete once supervision ceases; else that hatch is gonna rust or come unseated and, concealed by leaves and dirt, make a pitfall in waiting. Squeaks of videographer’s gear are curiously reminiscent of a clicking Geiger counter.
Simpler variations on this theme are in “Family Shelter Design,” DOD, 1962. See also Glasstone & Dolan, “The Effects of Nuclear Weapons,” DOD, 1957, 1964, 1977; Chester & Zimmerman, “Civil Defense Shelters: A State-of-the-Art Assessment,” FEMA 1986; Monteyne, “Fallout Shelter: Designing for Civil Defense,” U. Minnesota, 2011.
Fascinating. Thank you!
Very cool!
Verner Hornung nerd alert
I wonder if there is any asbestos or lead paint in this 1960s cocoon?
Thost gamma rays are gonna kill u
Bet there's some scrap metal and wonderglue down there.
Can't forget the Sunset Sparsilla
Frankie Ross oh and the nukacolo
Sphere723 and a ghoul :P
And a Fatman
mcturtlegameing ; LOL
Coming from that fake snapchat ad talking about this, so I can avoid them flooding my phone with ads and unnecessary false accusations
SaltyToad I thought I was the only one 😭
Same.
clean it up and make it a fallout themed game room
I would do that
YESSS
good idea
Man cave...
PERFECT THEME
I would eat a ham sandwich down there
I would eat a fruit loop lol
+Gd Player I have not met you but I don't like you no afence
wait, Brandon, which one of us don't you like......I just want to eat a ham sandwich down there
i am binge watching bunker videos for some odd reason, and i see you saying this in the comments in every video!
You eat ham sandwiches everywhere, dont you?
Forget about radiation! Now you'll get lead poisoning from the paint :)
+Paul Sop That probably is lead paint for the 1950s....Thanks for watching.
was thinking the same thing.lol im a Painter.
Bunkers intrigue me. That looks the perfect place for a criminal to hide for years at a time. Maybe Michael Jackson lives in one of these things. lol.
SCHIZOPHRENlC I would not want to hide out in this thing for more than a couple of days. Much too small for an extended stay!!
Yeah, there's definitely bigger ones out there. But the older/bigger they are, the more it's gonna cost to clean it up. I'm sure.
I would clean all that shit out put up some posters add a couple cushions some speakers and make it a chill spot, smoke some budda down there and you got the perfecttttt bake out room
Hell yeaaaa cept for the fact you'd need to get a vent or some shit so you don't smoke your self out lmfao
Hahahaha true just make a backwards fan (impeller) to suck.all the smoke out when you cant see
Hot box it
dead life
this comments are so funny :D
This room versus nuclear bomb blast? Give me a minute.......
That's a nice old fallout shelter! For about $3,000 you could REALLY clean up and make improvements to it and make it VERY serviceable! I have some recommendations.
1. Check with a company called "American Bomb Shelters" (google it). They have a decent NBC air filter that you could probably pretty easily retrofit onto that pipe (after you clean all that crap out of it first, of course). Also, save that wood stove! Those bad boys are hard to find and quite handy!
2. Clean-up: Rent a bobcat front loader and 1. push all that dead wood away, as that will attract snakes and rats. 2. Dig down around that entrance so it's not sitting right at ground level and pour you about a four inch sloped pad around the entrance You may even consider getting a welder to attach about a 1' extension on the entrance pipe. and 3. Using an angle grinder with a cup brush on it and a sandblaster and get that old paint and rust off (wear a good mask, N95 or better, gloves, and goggles) and repaint with a latex based primer and then a white or other bright colored paint.
3. If you do have a welder put on an extension to the entrance, you may want to have him custom build a new hatch door.
Just few suggestions from a guy who built his own shelter. It's a lot of work, but very much worth it! It's very rewarding once it's done!
Unfortunately this is not on my property. It is actually 2,000KM away from my house. I would like to build one just like it in my backyard however.
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew I wanted to build one my entire childhood and adult life until I finally could an did. Check with my friends at Utah Shelter Systems, again, Google it. They are good folks and helped me build mine.
thats a top class shagging pad.lock in an start rocking .
After a few meals of canned beans someone would be really cranking on that fresh air crank ventilator, or they would just say screw it and go topside and take their chances with nukes.
AZBYCXDWE SMIT is this a fart joke? XD
Everybody's mentioning the obvious fact that dying in a hole from radiation poisoning would suck ass but that doesn't make this gem worthless by any means. It would make one hell of a tornado shelter or clandestine storage space/hide out. Provided it isn't in a flood zone and you remain able bodied to access it. I would love that in my back yard!
Not a nuclear bunker, it has too many disadvantages:
1. not deep enough. Should at least be 5-10 m deep.
2. No sanitary facilities.
3. No double door system
4. Crappy ventilation system.
5. Ventilation system should be manually driven by using your legs like on a bicycle and not your hands. Reason: Legs are stronger and have a longer endurance.
6. Lack of a gym machine. The human body can't sit for hours still, it wants to have activity. That's why a gym machine is a important requirement in a modern nuclear bunker.
7. Not big enough to sit down there for at least 3 months.
8. No food and water supplies. If the ICBM starts you won't have the time to fill the bunker with food or water supplies. That's why it must be filled all the time.
9. It's filled with useless crap.
It might be probably better than nothing to survive a nuclear blast in a distance of hundred of miles away but it isn't capable to be used for weeks. The latter is necessary because of the high initial radiation at the beginning after the bombs fell.
nerd
OpenGL4ever It probably is more for keeping up public moral during the cold war than for being really useful....Thanks for watching...
The Young Blood Phoenix hes right, the cool kids will all die he'll still be here lol
***** yep, all truth, the government was never in place to make the public at large safe, i dunno how ppl dont fucking get that
Jacob Hoffman
Because not everyone is an American. Why should i know your problems?
I was here to clarify that this is not a nuclear bunker, that was all. If your government lies on you and tell you, that such a hole is enough, then it is our problem. But it is rather stupid to not listen.
My country was at least honest enough, we said that building enough real nuclear bunkers is too expensive and worked with the tools of diplomacy for a world of peace.
0:19 +4 RAD/SEC
Fallout references
TheSalcakes lol I'm a hardcore fallout fan, good to see a funny joke about it.
if i was you, id get that bunk in "stand by" ready...winter is coming
Mat Bledski I sure wish it was in my backyard. Unfortunately it is very far away.
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew i know right!
Thanks for the insightful narrative Skippy.
+BLACKMONGOOSE13 Your welcome......Thanks for watching.
I'm amazed at how much junk found its way into the bunker over the years, haha. Thanks for sharing!
first thing to do is build a concrete base around it and install at least a shack to protect the elements and add another level of security, install some decent airflow into the shack and down. be a good project cellar for the owner of the land, or perhaps they can give you access and use for making it "usable"| thanks for the shots. rock on.
+Kriswixx I sure would like to fix it up. But since it is 2000km away there is no way I can....Thanks for watching.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew you have a backyard of 2000km?
my grandfather built a bomb shelter in the basement. He dug down another level through the basement floor.
Wire wheel, and some rustolum oil base paint and that thing will be as good as new. Pretty cool!
What I think this actually is is a cold war era Fallout reporting shelter called NDFRS. there were/are hundreds of these built across the land in Canada and were installed as monitoring stations. In the event of a nuclear attack, these stations were to measure on the levels of fallout radiation in the immediate area and then the data would be reported back to Ottawa or a centralized regional control center where the data could be processed and disseminated as needed. It would show areas of severe contamination as well as monitor where the atmosphere was still transporting contamination. They are very interesting and some of them were even built in the middle of nowhere in the northern bush country.
Interesting.....Thanks for the info!!
This is a fallout shelter, not a bunker designed to resist a direct or even nearby nuclear strike. You wouldn't survive for long in this, it has no sanitary facilities and even with one occupant food & water storage would be very limited, perhaps a few weeks worth. For an idea of what would be needed for months of survival, look at what food you buy for a month and multiply it, just storage would be the main problem. Each person would need about 2ltrs of water per day, thats 60 ltrs per month, 360 ltrs for 6 months, which would have to be kept fresh.. And that would also be discharged, in addition to solid excreta. Per person! And months of survival would be very optimistic after a major nuclear exchange.
Even the huge blast proof shelters that the government built for themselves would only allow limited survival time, with hundreds of occupants to provide for.
And this is underground dwelling remember, humans don't do too well in such conditions, so mental and physiological health would quickly become serious issues.
This would have been perfectly fine outside an urban area. Unless you lived near a silo, you would not be any where near the blast. Shock wave and the like diminishes by the square of the distance, and the radiation is only airborne until it rains.
You would survive off the land for as long as needed and probably go back to living in you house pretty quickly.
The danger is from other survivors and long term radiation exposure from the environment. There is no shelter for the later
Now, supposedly in the old police station in my town, there's an old shelter that was used as a shooting range until they moved out of that building and onto a larger facility.
Awesome find. Definitely do not let it go to waste!
That'd be one of the coolest things to find of all if you ask me
You could rent it out to 50 illegal immigrants, 6 month rent in advance, then park a truck on the entrance hole, job done.
:/
wait a month or so, hire some more to clean out the mess, park truck, rinse and repeat
joshua43214 Great idea, it's not like you would run out of tenants, shame we can't connect it to the tunnel that runs from Calais to England.
Del Lawrence You got to do a lot better than that to take me away
Thats sooo awesome. You have a built in storm shelter. Sweet
Looks like someone was working on building a new kitchen :P
If you clean it all out you can put like survival kits,water,food,blankets and beds, and furniture just Incase something happens like a war or a tornado
Would make a great tornado shelter
The cheapest Underground Bunker you could get would be around 40k. The best ones to hire would be "Allas survival shelters" or Rising Company. It's hard to decide with those two, Allas is effecient and has had a lot of praises by several companies but it's small enough for one family, It's also very easy and friendly and gives you options for installments. While "Rising Company" is so big and can hold like five families. But you have to install the electricity yourself maybe. It's really cool you should look both of these Companies out. It's hard for me to decide which one better lol
They UK is full of cool bunkers, there is a nuclear bunker not far from me either, an that's awesome
We rented a house in Oak Cliff, Dallas TX. That had one of these in the back yard. It had a major pad lock on the hatch. It drove me crazy not being able to go in and look around.
+geofbrit59 That would really bug me too.....thanks for watching.
Will be very useful for when the zombie apocalypse arrives.
+Undead Nightorc It would be if only it was not 2000 km away from my place.....I have a pair of videos I posted 2 months ago that show the place we really will go to hide out....Thanks for watching.
Great Video and thank you for showing.
+Explomanie Your welcome.....Thanks for watching.
Грамотно все сделано, сколько времени прошло а еще все работает. Хорошо что этот кошмар уже не повторится.
+Сергей Комар Это хорошее качество бункер, который был построен еще в 1950-х годах. Как вы упомянули, все еще, кажется, в хорошем состоянии. Надеемся, это никогда не будет использоваться по своему прямому назначению ........ Спасибо за просмотр, пожалуйста, извините мой перевод.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew не знал что вы Русский:-)
+Mr. Twister Я получил большое количество помощи от моего друга Мистер Google
Man i want to have a place like this looks peaceful
Very cool! A piece of history - to bad all that junk got thrown in there
That would make one awesome storm shelter but leave out any electrical AC power for lightning to follow inside while occupied.
It would be good for that too......Thanks for watching.
Rather cool. But it is not like this is the first time the bunker was abandoned. Cheap people / kids tried to clean it up with a plastic snow shovel. Still rather cool. I would clean it out and paint it white inside and make it into a old fashioned root cellar! Grow veggy's above and around it and can it! Good food that you grew yourself!
Totally awesome! I would love to find something like this in my backyard
My father bought 22 acres in 1957 directly after we became citizens of USA & he went straight to work building a bomb shelter 30 feet below grade,it's a 3 room shelter with hand pump well ,manual & electric filtered ventilation, it has a 19 X 30 ft living area ,a bedroom that's 20 X 19 with 2 full size frames & 8 single flooding wall cots ,the 3rd room is a combination washroom & toilet ,the toilet system is a dry sump system where the waste falls down 8 feet into a concrete resivor sloped at a steep angle ,it requires dusting the feces & urine with LIE before opening the dump valve ,the system has dual vents to fresh air so no odor comes thru when flushing, my dad wired all lighting with 120 volt and 120 volt wall plugs every 8 feet on its own 100 amp supply feed ,he also wired in emergency 12 volt lighting in every room that runs off deep cycle batterys, he finished the shelter in 1961 & the inspector signed off on it to qualify for a state grant that paid for 80% of its costs, the federal grant required my father make the shelter available for the general public 300 days a year for 10 years to inspire others to build fallout or bomb shelters ,the day our 10 year commitment was over my father started building his retirement home over top the shelter .
The basement in the home had 2 25kw diesel generators and 2 500 gallon diesel fuel holding tanks full of fuel for decades ,he built a 3,200 sq foot ranch home over the shelter which is 3 levels deep ,after I inherited the home I removed the now illegal diesel holding tanks ,we sold the mint condition generators & replaced them with propane fired jennys, we've remodeled & now use the main living area as a home theater/ listening room for 1 of our hifi systems ,we replaced all the bedding ,we've just finished installing two external propane pigs for the Jenny's ,we have enough food to feed our 15 person family for a year as well as emergency bottled water should the well become sour ,we've spent 30 years growing shrubs & thickets all along the 6 ft high earth burm around the property to help shield the home from a blast, we have 3 weapons lockers with 5 Marine corps veterans to defend the shelter .
All we really have to do in a shit bit the can scenario now is to string concertina razor wire around the property to have an easily defensible shelter against all but military.
Interesting property you have......Thanks for watching.
COOL. maybe storm shelter. Or for Forest Fire if you can't get out of area.
Fist up, Fight for Truth.
Superb bit of history
Man aren't you lucky to have a bunker all ready.
:D the bucket loocked like a army helmet
A Deep clean coat of paint nice fixer upper
it's even recently used like "playground", or sellar. have a clear look at the stuff inside.
Would make an awesome wine cellar.
Systems It would certainly keep the wine at a nice cool temperature.....Thanks for watching.
I would definitely use that if I found it in my back yard. :)
repaint it withlead free paint, and it could be habitable as a storm shelter. it's well enough below the surface of the ground and is solid steel with reinforcement, no tornado will get u if ur in there lol.
Still useful today more than ever. Do you own it? The problem with these was drainage of the soil around it...lack of. It's like a big tank that keeps the water out from the outside but if the steel remains wet it rots. The second problem is if they have been opened and exposed to the humid air the walls condense the water and rot. The best design is to make it part of the basement of the house and accessible through it. This way it can be maintained, dehumidified, and even used for storage and space.
+eddie telleed Unfortunately we do not own it, and it is 2000 km away from us. I would expect the floor to rust through eventually and then it will flood with water. A modern all plastic septic tank type structure would be better for this purpose.....Thanks for watching.
perfect gaming room, dark, private, just put a ventilation way so u can breathe, and probably an a/c, because it's gonna get hot in there.
And sandblast them repaint with lead free paint so you don't die of lead poisoning
Get it up and running! Hire it out to film and TV!
You should clean it out. People are probably going to need it in the not too distant future
I'm betting the rust and water problem are coming from the seal on the lid or lack of one. Get some sort of tight foam rubber seal around there and that will be the end of that bro!!
it would be cool as hell to find one of these in my back yard or something
thats a great find, is it in your back yard, i'd love to find something like that where i live, a little tlc and a clean up n re paint and that would make a great storm shelter, bring down a chem toilet and your set for a while, not sure it would be big enough for a nuke bunker cos you'd have to be down there so much longer, not sure theres enough space for supplies and air filters water etc etc plus youd get mighty claustrophobic in there after a while, but hell, as a short term shelter and back yard bug out den, its awsome, thanks for sharing,
Colonelchimp, Bushcraft, Survival and Prepping Unfortunately this is 2000 km away from my back yard. I did just post a couple videos about an abandoned mine that could be used as a survival bunker that is half an hour away from my back yard. With some TLC it would be suitable for or needs......Thanks for watching....
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew mines can be very useful, especially copper mines as they shield you from a great deal of nasty stuff, and the rock is more stable if memory serves me right, shame that little one isnt closer to home, maybe you could get it dug up and re burried at your house, now that would be an interesting video, cheers dave
If I found something like this on my property I wouldn't just clean and rehab it, I would cut into the side, expand and modernize it with all the proper safety features. It would make for a great man cave until the real use it was built for happens.
cool, we also find a secret bunker!
Looking at this I don't think it was meant to be a fallout shelter. This looks more reminiscent of a storm shelter then anything. For example you would have to have room for at least six months of provisions and i'm not seeing that. I also don't see any facilities for handing human waste. You would also need about six feet of dirt or more above it to keep out zoomies. And the filtration on that is rather crude, i'm not sure it would be a long term solution for fallout since you would have to leave the shelter to replace it.
Yeah, my money is on a storm shelter of sorts.
Not if it's in the UK, we don't get storms like that.
How do you know where to go looking for stuff like this? You see all these types of videos online, but I just can't comprehend how you actually manage to pick the right place to search.
i lucked out on this one. I joked with a resident of the house about how the septic tank lid looked like an entrance to a bunker, and i was told no, the bunker is over there.....thanks for watching.
lol thats what i was thinking, not a place i would go for any type of shelter in any attack. its really cool to have, theres a few houses for saler here in michigan that have something similar to this, i just went to check them out. the sales rep was trying to tell me you could survive a nuke, and im like um no. lol
You need to do yourself a great service and clean that thing out. Get it decent enough to live in and stock that bitch up with everything you would need to survive anything. Then you need to really camouflage the entrance so nobody, I mean nobody would be able to figure out that is the entrance to an underground bunker. Only after all that, you, my friend, should be allowed a very good nights sleep. I would work on that and get that done asap. Your life might be counting on it.
skyym3 I wish I could. However it is 2000 km away. When the SHTF it will be too far away to be of any use....Thanks for watching...
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew I'm sorry, I thought when I was watching the video, it was in your back yard. I then read some posts and found out it was so far from you. To bad, but maybe you can take some ideas and construct one similar. I would like to dig a giant trench and put a shipping container in it and concrete ii in place with a main entrance and an escape hatch. Thanks for replying and the video. God Bless
For me its 3000 km away lol
skyym3 Neat idea. I would call it my "wine cellar", lol
You wont survive nuclear fallout
Dude you could have a secret grow op down there!
+Jesus Would not hold enough to be worth it......Thanks for watching.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew Mushrooms would work. Cheap. No need for light. You can use this idea.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew hehehe ;)
+Nathan Schilling no
+Robert I I like mushrooms they make me high
The toy airplane he kept passing would have given some indication when it was put down there.
It is not a bunker but a final resting place or an unmarked grave in the event of a nuclear war. Looks much more like a catacomb for the interior design.
+maxlol0 It would make a good unmarked grave if the house next to the entrance were to collapse on top of the entrance hatch and trap people inside. This shows the importance of having two entrances that are protected from getting blocked by falling debris......Thanks for watching.
Oooh sinister. No one can hear you scream.....in The Bunker.
Sweet grow room
Its a nice storm shelter put food and water and babam you have a storm shelter
I would never enter a confined space like that without a spotter, especially if it was underground. All too often people are asphyxiated by poisonous or oxygen deficient gases. Can't smell them, can't see them, can't breathe them.
+Bill D - yeah especially if its that old you would never know if there was any kind of dangerous gases stored in or near it that could have leaked.
Man when i first saw your dog i thought it was a freakn bear what are you feeding it lol
Ironically it looks like a bomb hit it. What a mess. Would make a great gaming room.
How would you run Internet in?
Run a conduit and cable down an air vent if it was in my back yard.
war, war never change
Don't know why, but I'd restore it and transform it in... I don't know, but I'd love to do that!
Game room right there
It´s actually the Dream of every Urbexer to find something like that in the Forest´s ;)
I'd play Donald Fagen's New Frontier in the background.
I use to think all the junk in fallout is not realistic and from this video it is!!!
+changeitonem All that junk did fall out from somewhere and landed in the bunker.....Thanks for watching.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew Fallout the game. duh.
If you are going to live underground for 20 years ... you're gonna need a bigger underground building.
That does it I'm making me one of those.
You can tell it's from the cold war due to the snow shovel ;) That a hand crank air filter?
That is a hand cranked air filter. It seems rather small for the job though. It may require excessive time cranking to get proper ventilation.....Thanks for watching.
Congrats! Bloeski's answered
Agreed, I would not want a hand crank being the final point of failure! Love the location though!
Dang that's awesome is that in your backyard?
That looked like a pretty modern shovel to me
no...no...no those ware around for thousands of years
If you live far away then i would go there once a week and clean it and use it for storage or camp outs
Cool deze bunker Underground
Why can't I find one of those. Been looking for a property that I can buy with one of those already installed.
All the best
Dave
+Navy Davy Same here. Too bad I can't move this thing to my backyard.....Thanks for watching.
FOG IT OUT WITH SOME CHRONIC ALREADY!!!!
That is a problem where this is located. If the house next to it collapses due to fire or blast damage you would definitely be trapped inside. Escape may be impossible......
Good place to go from tornados.
I sure wish that was in my backyard.....Unfortunately it is far away.
Cool stuff, much like a film I saw years ago from west of Stuttgart. The Nazis had built a half moon shaped steel bunker into a hill side, hidden away and almost impossible to see from the surrounding forest. It had several gun sites in the front, bunks, kitchen, storage in the back, with two escape shafts lined with steel and cement. The stores still had canned foods, guns and ammo. Would the property owner own the bunker or the govt?
SJ Bobkins The government did build this, but then sold off the land. So the property owner owns it.
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew the government didn't build this you crack head... This is one of those 1960's DIY bunker kits you bury in the ground.
TwistingBitches The government really did build it. The land was a site of a post office, and the shelter was built for the postal workers. Later the post office closed and the land was sold off.
thats really cool i would clear that out and use it what it was made for
If it was next to my house I would definitely clear it out and make it usable.
Imagine going down there and it was all fixed up, brand new, and all white, literally, all white, and there was tools down there and high technology and we find out it was a former CIA black site, now that would be an interesting video.
All I would do is fix it up to what it would originally look like, remove all the gunk, at lighting and keep it there to show to your friend and family every now and then. Or keep it for when we get nuked!
Cherry B0mbz That is what I would do if it was in my backyard. Unfortunately it is very far away.
Bloeski's Wrecking Crew Everybody else sounds like they would turn a historical place and turn it into a sex dungeon XD
id turn it into my personal gaming room xD
Cherry B0mbz If we get Nuked there will BE no survivors....underground or not. This isn't the "olden" days anymore.
Looks like a bomb went off in there!
I see what you did there lol
I thought that back then all you had to do was hide under a wooden desk or something? Lol
Seriously though, that thing looks in amazingly good shape considering how old it is. I wonder if you could just bead blast the paint and rust off... give it a new paint job and call it a day?
I'm curious if you ever found any hidden storage under the floor? Maybe that was the hollow sound you heard.
101perspective The whole thing appears to be prefabricated welded steel. I doubt there is hidden storage under the floor. Most likely the hollow sound is rust, moisture, and shifting ground under neath creating a small void.....Thanks for watching.
No Question In My Mind The Chamber Is Covered In Lead Paint.
I Would Bring In A De-Con Contractor Prior To Spending Any Real Time Inside.
ianrsigel It probably is covered in lead paint. It is the right age for that.
Looks like it needs to be cleaned out, sandblasted and repainted.
how long could or was someone expected to be in that little bunker? where's the bathroom?
You were expected to stay until the radiation was reduced to a safe level. For a bathroom you would have brought in a bucket and used it......Thanks for watching.
+Bloeski's Wrecking Crew ...so I guess someone could be in their a month if had to be?
2 weeks Is the minimum period to wait for dispersal of radioactive material. A chemical toilet is shown in the corner.
Perfekt grow spot
