The Doomsday Bunker For Billionaires

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Two months ago we went inside the Fed's "doomsday" bunker: a 135,000 square foot facility built in 1969, and nestled inside Mount Pony, east of Culpeper, Virginia that housed some $4 billion in hard currency as well as the central hub of FedWire, the computer network which allows the nation’s banks to communicate and transfer funds.

It was meant to ensure that the US banking system could still function in the event there were still any banks left in the post-apocalyptic world, Culpeper Switch (officially the Federal Reserve System’s Communications and Records Center) was equipped with everything a Fed official would need to survive in the wake of a nuclear holocaust.

And yet, it was in a word, "spartan" even by 1970s standards. After all who wants to greet the post-nuclear holocaust world surrounded by sterile plastic, a Fed spreadsheet (which caused the nuclear holocaust in the first place) and all the cash in the world, especially since the only currency accepted is silver, gold and of course, lead (not to mention a bunker-full of voodoo economists).

 

Then along came Vivos, a company which specializes in creating the ultimate in luxurious Doomsday bunkers which, however, are not only for the world's richest, but also for those who Vivos founder, California entrepreneuer Robert Vicino, deems worthy: anyone can apply for a spot in the post-apocalypse world but only a select few will be admitted.

Until recently, the company's only community shelter product was Vivos Indiana, a shelter "strategically located in midwestern America", which the company describes as "one of the most fortified, nuclear hardened shelters within our network, located within a one-day drive from anywhere in the Midwest and the Eastern seaboard of America.  Built during the Cold War to withstand a 20 megaton blast, within just a few miles, this impervious underground complex accommodates up to 80 people, for a minimum of one year of fully autonomous survival, without needing to return to the surface."

Like a very comfortable 4-Star hotel, this massive shelter is tastefully and comfortably furnished and decorated, completely outfitted, fully stocked with food, toiletries, linens, medical supplies, a one year supply of fuel, a deep water well, NBC filtration systems, geothermal heating and cooling, bedroom suites, full size showers and bathrooms, a theater area, dining area, lounge area, exercise equipment, kennels, a garden area for fresh vegetables, laundry area, abundant storage areas, ATV's, bicycles, tools, a workshop, security devices; and, just about everything else that may be needed to ride out virtually any catastrophic event.  You only need to bring your personal clothing and medications.  We've thought of everything else! 

 

Far from any known nuclear targets, this shelter is also strategically located a safe distance away from the New Madrid fault line, the Mississippi River, and all oceans that might cause submersion as a result of a tsunami-type event.  The site is also surrounded by excellent farming, fishing, hunting and water resources.

As the images and video below show, the Vivos Indiana complex indeed has thought of not only every contingency but presents it in utmost luxury.

Below is the video Vivos has created to showcase its Genesis tour:

The company's marketing is solid, if somewhat morbid:

The Vivos network of underground shelters is very real. Watch this video tour of one of the massive shelters built to withstand a 20 megaton blast from just 2 miles. This is one of the smallest Vivos shelters, with accommodations for just 80 people for up to one year of autonomous underground survival. The largest provides shelter for over 2,000 people. At complete build out Vivos will save about 6,000 people - 1 in every 1 million people on Earth in these impervious shelters.

 

Something is coming. Vivos is prepared for all of the predicted risks, whenever they may occur. Vivos is the only co-ownership community shelter network on the planet. Limited space is still available for those that qualify. Members are now boarding. Don't be left on the other side of the door!

Some more snapshots of the Indiana facility:

 

Of course, greeing the post-doomsday sun in a 5-star hotel is not cheap. Here is the price list from the company's website.

 

Still, when it comes to billionaires, $35,000 is a joke. They would much rather spend a whole lot more just to stand out among their equally showy peers.

It is for them, as well as for Europe's billionaires, where should a Grexit indeed take place and things quickly escalate, culminating in a way that nobody can anticipate, that Vivos has just opened its second major ultra-luxury bunker: Vivos Europa One, dubbed "The Elite Shelter for the Privileged Few", which in addition to everything else even has what Vivos calls the "only private human DNA vault on Earth", which offers donors the opportunity to collocate their DNA not in just one place but two: in both the United States and Europe. "Both deep underground shelters offer virtually impervious protection in their hermetically sealed vaults." 

Whether stored for years, decades or more than a century, the Vivos Global Genome Vault pool will be a perpetual depository, preserving life on Earth as we know it.

Or rather, the DNA stored will be of those billionaires who are not only rich but megalomaniacal enough to believe they are worthy to be the template material of all future humans. Which means all of them.

And speaking of everything else, there is a lot. As the Mail reports, the Vivos Europa One shelter is located in Rothenstein, Germany and is one of the most fortified and massive underground survival shelters on Earth. Its 6000 inhabitants can live up to a year without leaving the luxury premises.

 

According to Forbes, the bunker was "originally built by the Soviets during the Cold War, this shelter was a fortress for military equipment and munitions. After the DDR was merged with Germany, the German government inherited this relic and intended to use it for the same purpose of weapons storage. However, due to a law prohibiting the storage of ammunition near a major highway, the German Government soon realized they could not continue with their plans and decided to auction this 76 acre complex. A wealthy investor purchased the entire property, along with all of its improvements, both above and below ground."

That investor was Vivos' founder Robert Vicino whose "billionaire bunkers" are now on both continents, and who says “We are proud to bring this epic project forward in these increasingly dangerous times.”

The bunkers consists of a planned survival complex that is comparable to billionaire's mega-yacht or mansion - "but much bigger."

It boasts swimming pools, theaters, gyms, restaurants, custom apartments, outdoor space and helicopter service. And as one would expect, the bunker can withstand a nuclear blast, chemical agents, earthquakes, tsunamis, or another disaster. Unlike the Indiana complex where the cost is a relatively cheap $35,000 one time charge for adults, the Europea price list is still secret, although with the property valued at $1.1 billion, it is likely that the final price will be much higher. Underground shelter is currently in 'turnkey operational condition.'

Most importantly, in addition to paying a lot of money for the privilege of reserving a key for the luxurious doomsday bunker, residents will be accepted based on their 'skills' and 'talents.' It is unclear just which billionaire skills Vicinio deems critical for perpetuating humanity: being a legendary insider trader who pays off the government with Picasso painting, being the world's greatest crony capitalist, creating a criminal bank enterprise while scolding people for not being "rich enough", and so forth.

Some more details: the complex includes over 21,108 square meters (227,904 square feet) of secured, blast proof living areas and, an additional 4,079 square meters (43,906 square feet) of above-ground office and warehouse buildings, including a train servicing depot.

The typical chamber area is 5 meters wide (16.40 feet), by 6 meters tall (19.68 feet) and 85 meters (278.87 feet) long. Collectively there are over 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) of continuous tunnel chambers (equivalent to 71 Boeing 747’s fuselages stretched end to end). All shelter areas are located behind 3 separate nuclear blast and radiation proof vehicle entrances, and a number of other passages for access by people only. Each of the three main tunnel entrances includes an outer security door system, followed by a 40 ton hydraulic truck access door with hardened steel rods which expand into the surrounding encasement, and a second set of massive steel doors providing an airtight seal shut, protecting against chemical, biological and gas intrusion.

The underground main traffic corridors are large enough to allow mechanical transportation of heavy equipment to almost any point within the complex.

Each family in the complex will be provided with a private 2,500-square-foot apartment, which they can design and build to their own specifications. They may decide to add a pool, a theater or a deluxe bathroom. They will also have access to a hospital area, several restaurants and a bakery.

Other common area amenities will include roadways, a wine cellar, prayer rooms, classrooms, a television station and a detention center.

Once each member’s private accommodations are completed, furnished and fully outfitted, their respective quarters will be locked and secured, limiting access to their families and staff prior to lockdown; while Vivos will operate and maintain all common areas (under and above-ground) pending a catastrophic event.

Members will arrive at their own discretion, prior to lockdown, landing their private planes at nearby airports. Vivos helicopters will then be deployed to rendezvous with each member group, and safely fly them back to the shelter compound, behind the sealed gates from the general public. Members will then enter the shelter and access their private quarters. Each family will pay a base amount for their respective living quarter’s area, along with their fair share of the ongoing stand-by costs for operational management, staffing, taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities, and restocking as needed.

In short: a complete turnkey operation that every zombie in the post-apocalypse world will desperately try to penetrate and feast on the inhabitants.

And now, without further ado, here is how the world's richest will live in the real world version of the Walking Dead:

 

With its rolling heels and stunning woodland, the village of Rothenstein looks like an unlikely location for the bunker

 

The survival bunker can apparently withstand a nuclear blast, chemical agents, earthquakes, tsunamis - and virtually any other disaster. Above, this photo shows a drive-thru blast-proof door at the complex, which will likely be available only to the super-rich.

 

The Rothenstein facility also boasts 43,906 square feet of above-ground space. Above, an outdoor power station

Vivos Europa One shelter also features its own railway and helicopter service, which picks up residents from nearby airports

 

Each family in the complex will be provided with a private 2,500-square-foot apartment. Above, a personnel entry door

 

The luxury shelter was originally built by the Soviets in the Cold War as a fortress for military equipment. Above, its engine room.

 

Underground, the bunker features countless tunnel chambers, each with their own security system and blast-proof doors

 

The personnel entry corridor inside the shelter contains an array of white hard hats, with steel pipes running across the ceiling

 

Water treatment plant: It also has its own self-contained water and power generation system, as well as climate and ventilation systems

 

This photo depicts 'typical living quarters' in the shelter. It remains unclear how much each family will have to pay

When the time comes to emerge from their bunker, they will find a large, unlit yellow chute beyond the door with scuffed-off warnings about keeping their limbs away from the feed cogs and rotating blades. On the floor, there will be a huge, freshly-painted arrow pointing forward with the single instruction, "This way out"

I don't even think it would get that far.

When you are this rich, you are used to everyone doing things for you.  You need little people to make your meals, do the laundry, clean the bathrooms, etc. - the very people that Tyler Durden makes mention of in Fight Club.

If the zombie/asteroid/nuclear apocalypse has truly occurred, are you going to show up for work, baking pastries for 100 bunker billionaires?  Because of all the money they're paying you?  That you'll then get to spend at the company store, Apocalypse Outfitters?

Once the little people are gone, the indolent billionaires won't even be able to tie their own shoes.

Aaaa, how cute, rich people trying to build their own Shangri-la. Maybe the billionaires forgot that the whole concept of Shangri-la was that people of their kind didn't live there, or maybe no one told them there was a reason Shangri-la never existed in the first place.

These people could of course have hired their own crue of survival expert to make them masters of survival in the wild, but I guess life just ain't worth living if you can't take hump your mexican maid in front of your personal coral reef whenever you feel like doing so (and by the way how many serfs do you need just to maintain that little aquarium for a while?).

taking care of me and mine is the only thing i would care about, but happy hunting, i suppose. if things ever get that bad, most plebs will either be dead, or fighting each other for survival. Those smart enough to prepare for an event like this are also(hopefully) smart enough to keep a low profile rather than wasting time on those dipshits.

 

Also, if something happens that actually requires them to spend that full year in there(and lets be realistic, what looks like a year of supplies on paper seldom lasts that long) they will emerge into a much harder world than the one they left, one which they are not equiped to survive.

Very true carl, for like minded folks like many of us, but there will be legions of those that if, this place was found out to be housing uber rich folks and was known for having such resources at said folks disposal, would almost surely find a way in to that place, or force some type of breach. I am pretty sure the true elite and thier ilk will not be staying here, there are other places they have in place that will never be made known.

What baffles me is what type of safeguards are in place should something actually explode on or near this compound, assuming said explosion did not exceed ratings, that would assure the intakes/exhaust of the gensets were not damaged beyond use? Same for the compound air and exhaust........gensets are a HUGE achilles heel it seems.

Yes, the Lamb:

"He was oppressed and afflicted,

yet he did not open his mouth;

he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,

and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,

so he did not open his mouth.

8By oppressiona and judgment he was taken away.

Yet who of his generation protested?

For he was cut off from the land of the living;

for the transgression of my people he was punished.b

9He was assigned a grave with the wicked,

and with the rich in his death,

though he had done no violence,

nor was any deceit in his mouth."

5This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from allb sin.

8If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us."

- 1 John 1-10

Seek_Truth,

Much of what you say is true and correct.

Some of it is also foolishness; for example, your arrogant dismissal of the other commentator just now.

The One True Path is not owned by any one person or religion. To whatever an extent an individual religion or individual entity follows the One True Path, it is good and righteous, and to whatever extent it departs, it is evil.

Your religion is just as obsolete as his. Reject arrogance, and embrace truth, wherever it is found, and you will find your way to the new religion that is arising from the ashes of the world of old.

In the 1927 Fritz Lang classic 'Metropolis', a futuristic dystopia has the downtrodden workers living deep within the earth. Why should these mole-people be treated otherwise?

Absolutely! No matter how nice all this is, it is still just a burial ground for the lizards.

Is it not fitting that these bastards spend their final days closer to their master, and final resting place deep within the earth.

I think the "bunkers for billionaires" bunch have got their psychic signals mixed up.  In the end it will be the vision of the 99 percent that will overtake the vision of the very few billionaires and the doomsday that they are fearing is that they will all become poor.  The key here is that the 99 percent have to utilize their active imagination to imagine these scummy billionaires losing their shirts.....it's not hard to see that it is already starting to happen.
