If you bought a Bunker and never had to use it for SHTF, you could always use it as a tomb and fill it with all your favorite thinks like the Egyptian Kings. A thousand years from now you might be on National Geographic or in a museum.
Who knows, maybe in 1000 years, even you may be worth something ! - Rene Belloq to Indiana Jones, Raiders of the Lost Ark
You need to market this as ' tiny home living underground' rich hipsters will flock to this
Instead of a THOW (tiny home on wheels), now it's a THUG (tiny home under ground). I can get behind that...
I want three or 4 underground storage containers, I've been thinking of this for a LONG time...I'm renting a decent sized house, but I hardly use most of it...
FUCK HIPSTERS
If we do see a Boogaloo or SHTF scenario, hopefully those dumbshits are purged like the rest of the scum.
I'm not a hipster and I'd do it. I'd get a shed on the surface where on regular days I'd hang up my coat and leave my shoes, then head on in. Almost everybody in my family is a bit weird in one way or another(most of them have issues of one kind or another which is probably why), and almost all of them have kids. Most of them would think the bunker itself is cool, but that I'm weird for living in one. But whether I'm weird or not doesn't matter. Whether or not I'm ready for WW3 matters. If you live in one, the chances of you being in one when it does, and therefore your chances of survival, skyrockets.
Letting my grandson see my shelter was the biggest mistake as he within the week told the neighbors who told the whole block! So IDK if letting the grandkids or kids use it much less know about it is a good idea.
Quick tip, ...during installation of similar "bunkers", ...magnetic vehicle signs that read "Septic Service" and/or "Septic Tank Installers" goes a long way toward satiating the curiosity of onlookers, passersby, and nosey neighbors. Be creative for what suits your location.
And just as a mention. We have vetted Atlas once in the past and again as recently as May. Completely legit in all aspects. We've never done business with them as of yet. But open to it in the future.
Wait wait wait, you're telling me I probably shouldn't publish a classified ad in the local paper for a "bunker-warming" party for friends, family, colleagues and neighbors?
Great idea.
I think most people are bright enough to know what a septic tank is supposed to look like.
@@4TheRecord You give "most people" too much credit. They are called sheeple for a reason.
Weeeeellll...I'm NOT a man, I'm an 82 year old WOMAN and, I've ALWAYS wanted a secret room/rooms in MY house. Thank you, CP for the interview with Ron. Now, you'll have to excuse me as I'm going to click on over to Atlas Survival Shelters to check them out. Thanks again.... :-D
Please buy it for your kids/grandkids/great-grandkids.
You're 82. 💀
we use galvanized steel all the time in roofing penetrations. we also have to protect the galvanized steel from standing water with a liquid membrane otherwise it'll rust out in ten years. also when you have a non porous object in the ground, water tends to pool around that object. I've taken out underground steel heating oil tanks where they were rusted at the water level, the bottom, also where ever something hard like a rock was pressed against the tank even with a protective coating.
I seriously think this was a great two parter. Great to hear from an expert. I learned a lot! Thank you. Being where i am from it tells me my preps are very sufficient. Would be cool to see a vid of you doing a tour of their factories.
No one could be seen in this video due to both of them wearing camouflage.
Excellent! We done CP. Some very thought provoking information in this vid. It had displaced some misnomers about bunkers. Thanks to your guest as well.
Great stuff. My friends dad back in 1960 had a corrugated bunker under his house. We weren't allowed to play there, but could occasionally visit. Coolest place ever. Access was via a ladder with a nautical type hatch hidden in a closet. Air system was hand cranked as was electric. Fold down bunks. I remember the simplicity of food storage he utilized. He simply stacked cans in the valleys of the corrugated wall. That way they took up no usable space.
Awesome job as always. One little correction is his statement pertaining to radiation exposure to those in Las Vargas. They were not the "down winders ". St. George Utah was. Many documented cases of high levels child leukemia from down wind exposure. Otherwise, I love everything you have done with your channel.
Really interesting and informative interview! I sure hope to have one of these one day.
I DO think +Atlas Survival Shelters was being a bit optimistic about the worst case scenarios when speaking of how long someone may need to spend in the bunker. What about the case of an ongoing conflict? Imagine Europe during WWII. Or how about a pandemic? Or, in highly populated areas, an economic collapse? I just don't think its "crazy" to shoot for 30+ days if possible.
I agree with you
And even for nuclear wars, it may go on for more than a year just to finish the tens of thousands of nuclear bombs US and Soviet made in the 80s... I think what Ron means is that a fallout shelter is designed to be used for less than a month, and if you do want a long term underground structure, it's probably fortress or something.
I like how neither of them discussed the potential of nuclear winter... like... what??? It may be theoretical, but for all we know it could last for over a decade.
I did the math by kg weight you would need 4x40ft shipping containers to hold enough supplies for 1 person, for 25 years. This if for dried food goods. Loo roll, hygeine, water purification (but not the water itself), etc everything i would need down to individual 30g dried veg portions at 10 portions of fruit/veg a day (vitamins and minerals are essential for health) as well as protein, fats and carbs. So to include a living space you would need at least 40x50ft bunker.
This guest is so fun to listen to. Learned alot from him
If I had enough money:
1: drill a hole deep enough that water would boil and turn into steam. and turn a steam generator to make lifetimes of energy.
2:drill a second hole to collect ground water. With this I can run said steam generator; and water for every day use.
3: build a bunker.
4: in that bunker, have an area for a hydroponic farm. And it may help with oxygen ass well.
With this, and a massvie amount bake up parts, I could last for a very long time.
What do you think?
It's totally untrue that the maximum time is 30 days that an individual needs to spend in either a fallout shelter or bomb shelter in order to avoid a lethal dose of gamma radiation from a nuclear attack. 30 days max is only true with an airburst high enough up that the blast doesn't draw up soil, debris or small particles into the mushroom cloud. And if you think that a nuclear war isn't going to include hundreds of ground strikes than you're a fool. Making that statement is a big red flag that you really don't know what you're talking about.
The Russians have nuclear tipped missiles designed to strike U.S. underground bases, airfields, hydroelectric dams and ICBM sites. ALL of those are ground strikes that will cause MASSIVE amounts of lethal fallout as far as 300 miles downwind for periods of time extending well past 30 days. 90 days would be a good minimum. And after 90 days you'd still want to limit your above ground exposure and always sleep in your shelter.
Finally, all shelters should be supplied with radiation detectors and dosimeters and the instruction manuals. That way there's no guessing as to how many rads per hour you are being exposed to. When the outside radiation level drops to 1/2 R per hour you're good to go for 8 hours per day of exposure. Remember radiation exposure is cumulative. Anything over 450 rads received in a short period of time can kill you. And right after a nuclear bomb goes off the fallout probably will be producing 1000 rads per hour. That means only 1/2 hour exposure and you're dead. Airbursts' fallout decays very rapidly, but not a ground burst. You can learn how to tell the difference between an airburst and a groundburst by the appearance of the mushroom clouds. Just do your homework.
I am so impressed with your rebuttal. It is so informative. Glad that you watch The Canadian Prepper.
Nuclear bombs are a hoax? Sounds like a flat earther. Russia isn't going to target you personally they will target an area a city, a airport or a military target. The shelters is temporary you can leave the shelter and return at night, this this the most likely scenario. I myself will be placings my shelter 1 hour from my home or 3/4 of a days walk near a national forest
Texas Underground Castles can build a underground house for about $60K for a 30X30 room. Most of their homes are 4 30x30 rooms. About 300 K for an underground home and also serves as a bunker.
Two great men I've been following for years. Great to see you two come together. Awesome interview.
One other thing to mention in regards to bunker life. A very very important item to have is plenty of reading and research material, movie downloads and games. You can only read cereal and ammo boxes so many time. Prepper channels never seem to give mention to this.
Awesome you need interview more people get some of the special forces guys see what there thoughts are on preparing.
Why would Special Forces guys have any more insight int0 prepping than anyone else? Their just overly trained Soldiers. Most could not live any longer after SHTF than anyone else. The Gov gives then everything they need to complete their missions. Their not going out there with nothing.
@@johnd4348 special forces are meant to go into countries hostile to yours, gather locals dissatisfied with the government and train them to fight their own government so that you don't have to fight an actual war against it with your regular troops. I think people specifically trained to live in hiding know a thing or two about survival.
Back in 7th grade we would have those exercises where each table/team had to list the survival items they would take into their survival bunker during a nuclear attack. There was an M1 carbine on the list. Everyone thought it was for hunting. That's when the teacher would tell us it was to shoot our unprepared neighbors that were trying to get in the bunker otherwise our supplies would not last.
Amigo, that was an awesome interview.
Thank you both for all your hard work.
Way to go Canadian Prepper....great vid and interview. Information was a plus
You don’t have to be a prepper to enjoy the information in this video... I’ve always been fascinated in building/construction so the process to build these bunkers is really cool.
The fallout will decay and you will be safe not to get cooked. The issue is that although alpha and beta radiation is quite harmless outside of the body, it is the most dangerous inside of the body.
Alpha radiation is a helium atom being fired off with millions of electron volts of energy and a single atom has the potential obliterate the DNA of a cell and cause cancer, although most cells will simply die. The vast amount of nuclear material from a nuclear reactor meltdown and longer half-life is an issue. You don't get cooked alive from the gamma radiation, but there will be so much material that can kill you if it gets into your body and that material is quite long lived. These materials also tend to be extremely chemically toxic.
Radioactive fallout was responsible for 340,000 to 690,000 American deaths from 1951 to 1973. I don't think anybody has fully calculated the death toll till the end of time. Losing an average of 2-3 persons per year to it over a billion years is still a death count in the billions. It isn't going to stop human life, but that is a lot of people who died as a result.
Just remember the importance of at least dust masks and the correct kind of water filtration long after a nuclear detonation.
Awesome info.
*citation needed
What kind of water filtration ?
@Erich kempka I was speaking in terms of MOPP(Mission Oriented Protective Posture) with protective gear. Beta is not very penetrating. A 'mudroom' for a bunker should function for decontamination at the entrance with the bunker having positive air pressure.
@slaytanic921
The military found that ion-exchange membranes were the best at filtering out radioactive material. To prevent clogging use prefiltration to remove turbidity / suspended solids, particularly clay minerals.
www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/408968.pdf
If you are on a shoestring budget rig up a sand and activated carbon pre filter systems. You can get activated carbon for fish tank filtration for a low cost in bulk. A zero water filter uses ion-exchange, but have not been tested for fallout. Set it up to filter slowly by not putting too much water pressure behind it and use their tester only accept 0.0 or run it again. Using UV light to prevent algae growth in the filter would be good. You will know if you got algae from a fishy smell/taste. Drying or swapping filters can also prevent the issue.
A good yet expensive pro system will have UV and a system to flush the filter with saltwater to extend the lifetime of the filter.
Alpha particles are a danger precisely because they are so easy to block. Sure it’s easy to prevent them from getting in through your skin. But if you eat or inhale alpha, your cells/skin prevent them from getting OUT. So that alpha-emitting material stays in your body a long time, doing damage.
I'll stay in one of your Bunker's for one month . Let's really do this I'm up for this
I'll live UNDERGROUND for two months what better way to see if anyone can handle it alone. No cellphone no contact with anyone. LETS DO THIS
I'll live in mine for 5yrs if I have to...screw it..seriously
@@AllStar4261 haha obviously you commented that before covid
Learned something today, the difference of the shelters. Thank you guys...Las Vegas
He mentioned stored water, possible external water tank, and possible dedicated well....but Their bunkers have sinks and bathrooms, where does that water come from? How is that plumbed? does it have its own septic?
I plan on asking a lot more questions the next time I see Ron for sure
@@CanadianPrepper great, Thanks! Love your channel btw!
I'm in Dallas, whenever you're in town for that tour we should hang out and get a cup of coffee.....
I am so glad I watched this. Thank you 😊
FYI: Marshall is pretty much stealing the show. Good Dog!
"no one needs to stay in the bunker for more than 30 days" Problem is; what if another bomb detonates and you dont know it? Need meter with cable leading outside to monitor rads in the area. That is the most significant criteria for when one can leave the bunker.
Just having a little fun re. the ? How long could you last.
As a former US Submariner, I'm pretty sure that I could last a very very long time.
All the best.
Very informational. Seems like a very good guy
Your dog perfectly simulated "if the ground moves" at the exact perfect time. 😂
That foot @12:00 tripped me out hahaha
Thank You for asking these questions, like well water and power, etc...
Outstanding information, thank you both!
This is very educational design projects on what's best chance to take pressure.
Since he mentioned Chernobyl ... I'm surprised that no one is talking about Fukushima anymore ... Probably because the reactor was made by General Electric(GE) ... lol
wery few nuclear pwerplants are buildt to survive a big earthquake + a 47 feet tsunami almost same time...
difference is that russland just left the area and buildt a concrete dome over it later while the japanese have workd constantly since the accident stopping the radioactivity spreading to air-earth-groundwater
Like he said it can always be used for something who wouldn't want a cool place under ground, in New Mexico Arizona they build house half way in the earth to stay cool everything should check into that. Native Americans built cities in mountain and underground it was for a reason.
Id say id last 6mos before needing to go out for IF theres fresh air. As a sesfarer were used to isolation on ships usually lasting a month before we get to next port with satellite fones as only means of communication to family.
i cant wait to have a Atlas shelter! this is another great info video!!!! canadian cool video with dude,,, perfect!!!!! thank you from Arkansas!!!!!!
Buying a Bunker is definitely on my list, thanks for this!
Factory in Los Angeles.... City Prepping lives near LA. The two of you should meet and visit the factory together.
Now that you got to go over Nuclear War would you approach surviving it differently now? In your past video you had said it wasn't survivable but has this guy changed your mind? It would be great if you made an updated video about nuclear war on how your opinions have changed or not changed and what you think is now a good plan, especially if you have some land out and away and your location isn't on the project nuclear bomb target list, like the FEMA projected nuclear war maps.
Nice and enjoyable video. I'm glad he is bringing up that you can get past nuclear war and that we can't give up and just wait to die. I like this kind of rugged individualism, also inspires me to push myself harder and further.
Very Interesting. A good place to store gold and silver too if need be.
People really don’t know how hard it is going to be to stay in a bunker with people while bombs and death is going on above you. Bunker living is not for everybody .
Wow,,,very much informed me. Thanks
Being in the confined space isn't really the challenge. I think the main challenge is knowing you can't leave. And on top of that, it is knowing that weeks down the road when you can finally leave the world you once knew will no longer be there. That you might not only have little to look forward to but that life might actually be even much worse once you do need to leave the shelter.
There is no way I am laying down 25+ grand on one of these and only stocking it with 30 or so days of provisions. If you don't have at very LEAST 90 days worst you're crazy to make such an investment. I rather sleep with everyone in 1 room and have food, water, propane, seeds, ect in the other 2 than have those type of comforts. That's who you really set yourself up to survive.
GOOD QUESTION - HOW LONG COULD A PERSON TOLERATE BEING IN AN UNDERGROUND BUNKER ? Folks with claustrophobia probably couldn't even spend 1 day there. After a week, most people would go "island crazy" due to restricted space & lack of privacy. MAYBE a good solution would be a supply of nerve pills, or sleeping pills ! If you spent most of your time sleeping, or "zoned out", then being confined in a long tube wouldn't be so bad.
Well the doors help I guess
I was on submarines in the navy, spent 2 1/2 months under water at a time, so 30 days wouldn’t be bad unless your really claustrophobic
Just don't forget to bring a volleyball. Apparently they can be good company under certain circumstances.
i was thinkin a portable dvd player and a shit ton of movies
Honestly it is the social people who will struggle the hardest. If you have access to the internet (not likely if you actually need the bunker) or a lot of video games and movies, you should be fine. I would absolutely hate to have anyone else in the bunker though, living with even your best friend in that scenario would eventually turn sour and you would get sick of each other very fast (thank you doors). Alone would be the way to rock it, with some open world games like Zelda BOTW and Red Dead 2, etc. Easy month.
Great interview I enjoyed both parts and learned a lot.
So Wise , Thank You .
You two may think this is your video. But it's all about that GSD. It thinks this is it's show !🐾🐾💙
That is a nice idea and if someone has plenty of money to waste then they can build one on their property if they have the room.
Really a great back up.. who wouldn't want one, given an ideal location. But.. once your location has been compromised, you're a sitting duck. Perhaps with a house on top as a decoy.
Try explaining to city why you need to get a dig permit in your back yard
Those bunkers would be a gas under a large tent👍
I want two connected...the biggest ones he sells...so there's a side for sleeping/relaxing..and a side for the family/ community..utilize as much space as possible..
I want one that can double as a submarine so that when the middle of the country collapses below sea level you can still float away
Hey!!! Women like bunkers, too! By the way. Coolest thing ever.
Over under sideways down-backwards forward square and round. When will it end?
Always want to ask what everyone does with all the trash and waste
Plan on about 2weeks, but saving the last round....
Why is a covert bunker not waterproof? I want to know. If I am going to by one from Atlas.
Dude i want one so bad!!
Thanks for this video! Atte: Pedro LEON
Definitely on my list. Thx for vid!
L Ron Hubbard?
Don't ignore the dogo! LOL
Q. Why is a bunker safe?
Bombs don't hit in ground?
Earthquakes don't open?
Airflow doesn't get blocked by bomb debris piled high?
24hrs and some iodine for your throat/thyroid?
Pie are Round, Corn Bread are Square.
The pukle gun shot square bullets.
Would love one of them
contact atlas at 1-855 4-BUNKER
After full scale war who will stop the plant melting down!
Is it EMP proof?
Canadian prepper, what kind of bunker did you get for you and your family?
He mentioned in the previous video that he wants a bunker when he eventually buys property.
Better hurry up, you have 2 years maximum left of business as usual before everyone wakes up to exponential global warming which has just begun. North Pole is 20 degrees Celsius above normal right now
at Mr X - Its October 2019 and im still waiting on the Canadian prepper shows us his bunker video.
at Climate Change Preppers Facebook Group - you said we got 2 years, its already been a year, and and i kinda see us having more time than that - the sun is cooling off right now lots of sun spots,
actually i think my research has indicated a 40 year period of global warming from 2023 to 2063 that will eventually melt the icecaps... also my research is showing a cold winter with lots of Snow for the winter of 2019 to 2020 this year for here in Ohio and Pennsylvania due to grand solar minimum.. but i think that eventually the solar minimum will end and like you say Climate Change Preppers eventually we will run out of time on preparing for climate change. But you are right on this - We do need to get off the Nuclear World War 3 kick and switch to the Climate change preparing kick though. if you live in Florida you got to buy your bug out location now for when climate change creates those world wide flood times come in 50 or so years by the year 2130.
Interesting that He is building a community in California, I would like to hear His reasoning on why.
Easy access to mountain ranges, and crap load of rich people live there.
Bullet, airplanes, and subs are round for strength but mainly aerodynamics I would imagine. I don’t think that is a fair comparison.
What about if there's a pandemic like a mass flu that's killing millions of people how long should you stay down in your bunker in a situation like that compared to if there was a nuclear bomb? would you need to stay down there over 30 days and make sure you have enough food and water and air to survive down there longer than 30 days while the pandemic hopefully subsides or kills everybody else on the surface or what how would that work?
I know Canadian prepper has a bunker SOMEWHERE for his family lol..hopefully I’ll be able to get one soon..👍🏽
Store your water, hmm. So why does it have the sink and shower? When clearly if you store that's all for show? Or that's up too you to put in septic, water storage and such? Right? That's clearly why these new shelter put two round tunnels in with the extra for food storage, water, fuel, etc. water, septic, electricity is all extra.
I think I'd rather spend $30K on something like this, than to spend $30K tricking out a basement room into a man cave. This thing IS a man cave. Stripper poles FTW!
Yeah I get that you don't have to stay in your bunker for more than 30 days in the event of a nuclear bomb dropping but what if the government collapses and there's complete anarchy and it's every man for themselves type of situation? You may need to stay in your bunker for longer than 30 days.
Canadian Prepper love your videos. Ron is a very prominent builder but I’m afraid his nuclear bioscience is quite misleading. There is no viable medical assessment in Soviet Atomic Energy Ministry archives and in department of energy US that posit a “safe” continuity strategy after a mass nuclear exchange unfortunately. Most of all 20 -200 foot optimal bursts produce fissile plasma to the effect of 1000 -5000 pounds of aerosol level particulate in cesium and strontium isotopes that are well effective in RAD administered dosage at 21-50 range effectively still at 24 hour effective range but still lethal in down %83.3333 Percent ongoing with a slow decay 5 years to 25 to 50 then remaining toxic at 0.12333 onward.
Regardless of this major environmental factors are the real focus of long term survivability of these ecosystems holding up in a hermetically sealed facility for even over a year isn’t going to be the issue. High density aerosol dispersion at the level of 3000MT worldwide detonations that is considering major city infrastructure military and strategic targets nonetheless. For example a mobile missile wing arsenal of 300 topol M systems carrying live 3-6 sets of actual pits in a MERV type system are set to 50 to 100mt respectively. Covering about a city wide effective conflagration area of 5-10 miles major city. That gives you about 18,900 total Russian units in that entire command for land units. American setup is similar in the SSLBM force assessment. Given that much potential detonation radiological and geological atmospheric density would produce these tremendous winterizing effects by particulate alone, a single Castle Bravo aerosol assessment held 2400 dissolute fallout ppm in atmosphere with mesosphere sustainable high alt aerosol at similar ratio. Direct temperature drop correlation is 2-5 degrees with over effect toxicity still at 24 percent . Given the thyroid and carcinogenic studies into particulate effects and long term viability I think these things should be considered when discussing surface based survival after nuclear warfare.
He spoke of a 2nd bomb 28 days later. That is a scenario I have long thought about. The bomb explodes, EMP occurs, I am feeling good about having protected our electronics. My family and I are rebuilding our lives (in uncharted territory), when BOOM, a second one hits and we are screwed! Am I over- thinking this?
I think it's actually a military strategy to do the double tap
Canadian Prepper Yep, that second tap takes out the residual survivors of the first.
That's why military EMP testing requires 30 hits (10 per axis of direction). Sol-Ark was hit >140 times at >100KV/m.
Do they come with a hydroponic system to grow your own vegetables with solar power and your waste? Air purifiers and can you get the water system buried as well that turns air into water? Would this system be safe in way the air that goes in is purified first so that the water is safe to drink? And windmills is this an option for backup energy just in case the solar system fails? How much would this version I'm asking about cost?
did anyone ever made a weed growing room in there bunker
I really didnt appreciate how he talked to you like you dumb in my opinion, maybe that was just me and you really got him on the nuclear power plant one
Actually the strength comes from the arch not being round. It could be a arch and do the same with a flat bottom.
I dindint know submarines can go underground
Great vlog!👌👍
Here it is, July 3, 2023:how crazy the world is now. What about building a bunker for livestock to survive in?
Ron Hubbard. Wasn't that the guy who founded scientology? haha
What if the bombs go off and then the nuclear power plants melt down. I guess building it as far away as possible from any nuclear power plant and military bases also air strips over 7000 feet
That 30 days max "down"time in a bunker might be a bit short sighted. Sure his one month rule fits nicely with radiation, but what about about a superbug, ebola (incubation in rare cases is greater than 20 days) or a bioweapon?
No question that surviving the first 30 days of whatever should give you relative good long term chances.
Folterknecht yah and global warming? And shtf scenario in suburban/city life you might not want to leave your bunker for longer, and it’s about preparedness so? Could you even have enough food and water to last years?
The thing is, you're not going to go down the bunker at the first sign of ebola. And when there's first signs of ebola in your country you know that you're already more than 20 days into the pandemic.
You're probably only going down under when everyone is panicking and dozens if not hundreds are dying every day. When you go down, the disease will be at the point it is probably killing its hosts faster than it can get into contact with new ones.
Nobody ever counts on the trash accumulation...
