For Sale: Apocalypse Bunker, Can Withstand 20 Kiloton Nuclear Blast; Furnished: Asking $17,500,000

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Earlier this week we presented the Oppidium: a concept doomsday shelter which would be located in the Czech Republic, catering exclusively to billionaires who could watch mushroom clouds wrap the earth in a radioactive glow just the way they like it: in posh opulence, as the following proposed images suggested:

Interior bedroom of bunker

Bunker swimming pool and garden using artificial lighting

Underground bunker wine cellar

And the bottom line:

 

Upon some further recollection three things emerged: the Oppidium bunker is completely useless because i) it was all style over substance; ii) it was a marketing gimmick for its designer/seller, and iii) it doesn't even exist yet and furthermore its completion cost further billions.

But perhaps most importantly, the bunker was located in Europe, somewhere in the Czech heartland, and as such would be largely useless to the targeted customer base: uber-wealthy Americans with a penchant for if not immortality then outliving everyone else, and who would hardly have the time to reach it as the "Apocalypse-level" event unfolded.

Addressing all of these concerns is an underground facility and bunker dubbed “The Facility” in Southeast Georgia, located two hours from Savannah, which just hit the market for a far more modest $17.5 million, and which most importantly, is in "move-in ready" shape.

As BizJournals reports, the property (which is exclusively listed by Sister Hood of Harry Norman, Realtors Buckhead Office), was built in 1969 and fully renovated to government standards in 2012. Its address is undisclosed.

According to Harry Norman, it is the only hardened and privately owned underground bunker of its kind in the United States. The property features a commercial 3-Phase power plant, in addition to its own 8Kw new solar backup system. The facility is also equipped with a $100,000 CCTV security system.

“Above ground, The Facility offers 2,000 square feet of commercial space, a renovated 1,000-square-foot caretaker’s home and below ground the facility offers 14,000-square-feet of living and working space,” the company reported. “The Facility is 45 feet underground and certified to withstand a 20K ton nuclear blast.

The Facility stands on 32 acres and has two levels of underground living space.

Level two has four luxury apartments that are about 600-square-feet. The apartments are totally self-contained and have two full bedrooms, a kitchen and dining area, a living room with TV and internet and a large bathroom in addition to its own security, a HVAC system and environmental monitoring sensors. Level one of the underground facility has common areas similar to a luxury hotel, the company said.

“Guests can enjoy the large home theater with seating for 15, a commercial grade kitchen, a recreation area, library and TV room,” Harry Norman reported. “The Facility is equipped with a full workshop, a separate business and conference center and fully equipped medical room.”

In other words, unlike the Czech pipe dream, the Atlanta bunker can not only withstand a direct nuclear blast, but is move in ready right now - a key selling point which no other "concept" apocalypse shelters have as of this moment.

Here is the full listing:

 

And here is what $17,500,000 (price is negotiable) gets you.

Blast from the Past with Christopher Walken

CALVIN
(with arms spread)
Home sweet home!

HELEN
To you maybe.

Calvin flicks a wall switch and we HEAR A SERIES OF
LIGHTS COMING ON. The echoes of the sounds suggest a
large, cavernous space. All we can see is the cinder
block wall behind them and the hatch door, which Calvin
begins to shut by putting his body into it.

Just then there is a TREMENDOUS DOUBLE EXPLOSION FROM
ABOVE which knocks them to the floor. (Note: Helen hangs
on to the roast, trying her best not to drop it.) The
LADDER, CORRUGATED TUBE, ROOF, AND LOTS OR DIRT AND ROCK
BEGIN TO CRASH DOWN INTO THE ANTEROOM. Calvin struggles
to his feet and gets the vault door shut just in the nick
of time.

HELEN
What was that?!

CALVIN
Are you all right?!

Hanging on to the roast she nods vigorously, trying to be
brave.

HELEN
Yes, I think so.

Calvin hurries to a bright RED METAL BOX on the wall.
Next to the box is a LARGE THERMOMETER OR GAUGE that's
labeled "Radiation Count." There are OTHER GAUGES that
are dropping to zero.

CALVIN
Oh, no! It's happened! Look at that
heat!! All my surface indicators are
knocked out! Oh, my Lord...it's
actually happened!!

I would rather suffocate to death in a poison gas cloud than choose to spend the rest of my life isolated in a concrete box buried under the surface of the earth. After 3 months of living like that I would be trying the synthesis cyanide.

Raising kids in this bunker is a fate worse than death. What becomes of them?

Better to give everyone a hug and a kiss and pray for a quick death. Save yourself the $17m and buy a beachfront villa in California where you can make some memories and enjoy what life you have.

That's a rip off, 20 Kilotons is nothing...  There are 500 Kiloton bombs out there.

Then again probably would be outside the blast zone.

 

I always imagined blowing the doors off one these bunkers with military surplus gear after the zombie apocalypse and seeing what's left inside after the rich turn on each other.

The Russian SIOP for Georgia includes weapons in the multi-MEGATON range scattered like daisies over the Eastern half of Georgia to insure maximum damage to the many military bases.

Fort Stewart most likely gets a 10 megaton to share with Huner Army Airfield.

Kings Bay Submarine base would draw at least two 20 megaton weapons since it is such a high priority target.

This silly bunker is just an expensive way to get buried alive.

Shock Wave Dissipation.

I know math is not always a cherished skill around here, but how about economics?  The lifecycle costs of ICBMa are over $1 billion each.  Now while it is conceivable for a government to waste that much nominal money to wipe aout a prepper and his family, a military isn't going to forgoe the three facilities you mentioned plus Albany Marine Corps Logistics Base, Atlanta Naval Air Station, Camp Merrill, Coast Guard Air Station Savannah, Fort Benning, Dobbins Air Reserve Base, Fort Gordon, Moody Air Force Base, Robins Air Force Base, and Souther Field in order to do so.

That looks like an airbase in the top corner of the picture  (a little blurry, might hust be a yokels airstrip, and that hummer, and considering its probably a repurposed missile silo). If it is adjacent to a military base it's a part of that target.

Still, I'm going to buy a powerball ticket!

and pray for a quick death...

 

And to who(m) is this "prayer" being addressed to?  Since we all will be experiencing this eventual fate with or without the aforementioned “apocalyptic" scenario, modern now-a-day-go-go folks are way too cool to believe in the Judeo-Christian teachings of being held accountable for one’s conduct while orbiting the sun our ~70-80times.

The fact remains, those breathing in the 1800’s are no longer breathing here, and the likelihood that even if one were to survive until AD-(cme), 2200, would you really still want to be here?

 

Give me the Christian canon of scripture and its logical / rational explanation of physical existence on the earth anytime.

You clearly are unaware that Christians count on NOT being held accountable for personal conduct, so I'm going to ignore much of what you wrote. As for the request for an explanation of physical existence, I wonder if you've paid any attention to all the suppositions about our living in a simulation. So I suppose you'll have to define exactly what you mean by 'physical existence', as it may not mean what you think.

And this assertion is based on what?  If you were able to provide even a modicum of comfort, assurance and / or peace as I take my final breath, I’d place my trust / faith in your words.  The zombie won’t need to rise from the dead, He’s already done so.  That’s the fact I’ll continue to rely on in lieu of the vaporous allegation having less backing than an frn you attempt to pass off as valuable.

Logic, rationality and history are the foundation of faith, not a pie in the sky attempt to discredit the greatest truth from the objects of the Creator’s mercy.

Yeah.  And at the worst, spending your life down there is better than spending it in prison, which a veritable shitload of citizens are doing right now.  A couple brace of dancing girls of reproductive age goes a long way.  No one to complain if you have to belt them around a little to keep them in line, either.

Life, mate.  Hang onto it.  Won't come around again.

20kt is tactical - albeit right at the top of what's considered tactical - and can be carried by, well, "almost anything".

I might be more inclined to "buy" (Ha, Ha) if the facility could withstand your average city-killer (150 - 180kt), but I'll still stick with my "plan" -

http://karbonsan.com.tr/resimler/lpg_bobtail_tankers_3.jpg

For those who want a little extra space (but still want mobility) - try the "His'n'Hers"  (with an extra "guest" room) - available via Kleenheat Australia -

http://www.cem-int.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/WKG-Triple-Road-Train.jpg. :-)  :-)

450PSI burst pressure = more than 450PSI overpressure; that is almost in the league of "surviability" for a major (Mt scale) detonation within 1 km, provided your LPG tank has been carefully secured. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_nuclear_explosions

The performance specs. on these tanks are such that they would REALLY make an effective blast shelter. All-metal construction = EMP shielded, thick, quality steel walls so good radiation shielding, and pre-installed plumbing connections so fitting an air filtration system may be (relatively) simple.

One has to wonder if the "Prepper" Community have had thoughts along these lines. There are Commercial ideas ( http://www.atlassurvivalshelters.com/ ) but nothing LPG tank shaped.

Or air / helium mix! At least your final hours would be entertaining (providing the other family members are Donald Duck fans!).

If people can build bomb shelters out of prefabricated septic tanks (http://www.refinedguy.com/2012/08/22/9-survival-bomb-shelters-you-can-actually-buy/) I'd have thought a physically MUCH stronger LPG road tank would be a better deal, especially since older ones (that have maybe seen better days) are available on the second-hand market. Even second hand ("failed Pressure Test") would be better than galvanised sheet tube systems.

My Grandparents had a "new" Septic Tank installed in their property many decades ago - a massive GRP construction from Conder Plastics, 'cause they were not on the mains drainage system. Just one year after installation the local Council decided to extend the mains system, so Grandfather (ever resourceful) had the tank pumped and steam - cleaned (we got through a LOT of Domestos!), then put in flooring, power, bookshelves, table, chairs. It was his little "hidey-hole" which he retreated to when the Grandkids (us) were getting on his nerves . . . :-)

Probably have got photos somewhere back in the UK. When Grandmother sold the house (after he died), the new owners were very keen to keep "The Bunker" since that was in the 1980's, when WW3 was imminent, and "having your own private fallout shelter" was quite a selling point (even though they lived in The Wolds, far from any nuke target!)

I'm fairly confident that is a misunderstanding. 

If the circuit is open, the EMP should not damage the system. You probably wouldn't be running the backup power before the attack, so as long as you only throw the breaker (closing the circuit) and turn on the generator after the bombing stops, it should be fine.

Would be nice if they clarified; is that one 20 kiloton direct hit bunker buster, or at 2000 feet overhead, or 20 Km away?

"Where's the brewery?"

Down the road.  After you've escaped, using the Escape Tunnel(s), which is not shown on any of these places.  Talk about having tunnel-vision that lacks a Tunnel Vision.

How much you wanna bet that these fixated 'genuises' don't have an Escape Tunnel.  Bet ya that < 10% of them do.  That's good for the rest of us, who will simply close their air vents and bury their Entrance (with bulldozers) for a few weeks or months.

p.s. First rule of investment and relationships (that your parents, friends and CFP's won't tell you): "Never get into anything costly or dangerous, that you don't know how to get out of -- at acceptable risk and cost".  This is true for personal as well as business relationships.

Should a nuclear war start, the owner of this bomb shelter can expect a visit by the Atlanta Police Department, which will claim the shelter was bought with laundered drug money and, under asset forfeiture, the cops take over the property.  The owner at gunpoint gets evicted, the cops move in with their hookers and their Police Property Room blow and its party time at the end of the world.

True, but what nation is going to drop a 2 megaton warhead on a private bunker? I think the point is that it could survive multiple, large detonations that occurred within a mile or two of its location, which considering its location, is still a nearly impossible scenario.

What a waste of money, hiding in a fixed hole.  Do what guys like Larry Ellison do:  buy a large, livable island...

He owns > 98 % of the Hawaiian island of Lanai (where Bill Gates went for his honey moon), with his famous $650 million deal in 2012.  Since then, Ellison, has acquired ~ 9 more homes near the Four Seasons Resorts Lanai at Manele Bay for more than $41 million.  No wonder he bought the airline Island Air, which provides inter-island commuter trips.  Lanai City has ~ 3200 residents, which makes for a nice workforce to run the plantations, hotels, services, infrastructure, etc.

If a person had millions of dollars to burn on a 'bunker', you'd be far better off to do what most millionaires and billionaires do:  Have multiple (luxurious) homes around the world, and your own way of getting there (jet or yacht).  Hell, even if you had a few million, you'd be better off to have a Bugout place in the Southern Hemisphere, which you visit at least once a year, than stay put as a hostage/serf to your government.  Duh!

I'm not sure how practical it is to own an island away from where you mainly live. Flying in a jet or even traveling in a yacht shortly after global nuclear war might be a bit difficult.

Bear in mind that the truly rich HNWI (worth tens of millions or more) don't stay put, the way we do.  They travel a lot, and love globe-trotting.  

The US sun-belt millionaries wouldn't even have to go far, if they sensed danger.  They'd be in their nearest resort place (Carribean, Cozumel or Cabo) before you can bat an eye, just to hedge their bets. If it looks like there is another "Cuban Missile Crisis" event looming, they will be gone long before the 1st missiles fly.  Wouldn't you?

I'd even bet that even LoP has a Bugout place somewhere way down south of his Texas spread (as his Plan B or C).  He'd be a poor risk manager, if he didn't.

At 17M it's not that expensive.  The cost per FT2 of building a structure like that is astronomical (structural as well as electrical/plumbing/HVAC engineering).  

You can buy a perfectly acceptable interior door at home depot for a couple hundred dollars, but for a fire and security rated (not even blast rated) interior door - prices start around $5000.  When you move from the simple exposed 2" PVC pipe that is for make up air intake and only costs a few cents per liner foot to a redundant steel blast valves weighting thousands of pounds and each requiring their own heavilly reinforced concrete housings, the exponential cost increase is even greater.

But no one is going to use a nuke to target a private residence on Pinetta Road in Ocilla, so the distance from the nearest probable target is a significant variable.

Even if that bunker can withstand blast damage from a small nuke---and that's a very big if---it can't protect anyone from nuclear winter or levels of cobalt-60 that would remain lethal for decades to come.

That's no bomb shelter. That's an overpriced tomb.

how are the real estate taxes calculated for a bunker lol? I mean technically its liveable space and counts towards square footage, but depending on elevation of the structure a lot of the square footage could probably be discounted.

Just me wondering how people know when to get inside. Most important, when do you leave your villa and start driving (assuming car still works) towards the shelter? 

Its not like they will annonce a nuclear war much in advance.

For a civil, or well nuclear war also id rather have a nice little tropical island. Just build an armed hous with an external weaponsystem that can reach most of the island if needed. If they even nuke small islands there wont be anything left of earth.
