I build an overnight bomb proof shelter in just 12 hours with some pretty basic materials in this Armageddon preparation scenario. Being ready for an end-of-the-world even, like the zombie apocalypse, a bomb, or pandemic is always a good thing. Other emergencies also warrant a plan such as floods, EMP, hurricanes, tornadoes, strong winds, fire, and more. Always have bug-out plans in place, ensure you have enough food and water supplies, lighters and matches, clothing, food and medical kit.
What if you were facing imminent doom, what would you do, are you ready, do you have your bad day bag ready? In this test of skill, we have just 12 hours to build a safe and secure underground preppers bunker or fall out shelter. We need to make sure the walls are thick enough to withstand the blast, or have enough dirt to insulate from the blast. Also, chemicals or radiation may persist, so it's important to have a way to filter air, and block harmful agents.
This shelter is modeled after early sod houses, but reinforced with steel protection and feet of soil and a metal door. To be ready, you always need to be sure to have all the amenities, like way to cook, water, bed, lighting, etc.

"Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. This channel will approach self reliance from a modern perspective. and will focus on various build projects using modern amenities, and tools to build a completely self reliant lifestyle.

The author does like to from scratch, kzread.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Let's give a round of applause to Rachel for putting up with this guy's adventures.

You asked what is in my bug out bag: Medical Supplies - A big first aid kit, burn gel, several Israeli bandages, some gun shot/deep wound kits, extra gaze, bandages, saline. Survival Supplies - A Knife, 2 lamps, a flashlight, a small saw, compass, a multi-tool, small tent, emergency blankets, poncho, paracord, lighter. Other Supplies - 2 Small power supplies with USB and Phone connections for charging, batteries for a week or two for the lights. Food Supplies - 10 Bottles of Water, Trail Mix, Granola Bars, Tuna Packets, Mayo, Crackers, Chips. Everything is inside of a large military duffle bag that uses a molle system. I made this bag, and keep it supplied when I can, about 5-6 years ago. Our power went out, my Grandfather was slightly injured, and we couldn't leave the house because of downed power lines. Always good to be prepared, since then this bag helped save my Grandmother's life from a very deep injury she sustained, as well as having water after flooding.
My younger brother loved Tang. When he drank so much that his urine turned orange he was so freaked out the he will not drink it to this day (45 years later).

Air intake pipe filter should be inside. Also air intake pipe needs to be in the shape of a candy cane to prevent water from entering. And you need alot more airflow than a 1 inch tube. Especially if u have alot of ppl and candles. Also concrete is alot better than dirt. Aside from that its a pretty good idea

You should consult the Atlas Bunker guys videos. He has a lot of advise on how much soil you need to keep out radiation the 90° angles etc. Air cleaners etc.. For nuclear hardened. Love to see you build a hardened bunker out of junk or found items. Just show ideas!!! Just a safety note you need an air in and an air out and something to move the air if you ever make that bunker air tight you would not have enough fresh air exchange.
i am not too sure about how good that door would be when it counts and i am not too sure about how well the air flow would be with that filter over the air hole. Might be a carbon monoxide issue.

Seriously. I have purchased a 5 x 5 x 4 dog kennel. I'm gonna use boxes with huge trashbags to hold water mixed with boric acid. To build up the outer wall then fill in between the kennel and the boxes with 2 gallon bags of water with boric acid. I'm also gonna build up the roof with basically borated water. It's not a lot of room but it's enough for us to lie down. Potty, food and water supplies at least for 72 hours. Then I'll go out for brief things in the house but my son will have to stay in there for a while. The science of it seems sound. We'll be shielded primarily by 24in of borated water. It's not as good as being underground but it might be good enough to prevent serious problems. I have Apple pectin and potassium iodide tablets.
Having beans in an enclosed space? You really do believe in living dangerously.

It would also make it harder for someone to mess with it with the filter being inside. Atlas survival shelters makes shelters & thinks about things to do for a nuclear fallout situation.

Hey neighbor! Man did you hit on a subject that my family thinks I'm crazy for!(they don't think I'm that bad anymore because I was prepared for the pandemic and they weren't) I have so many tips for you! Crayons can be candles for 30 minutes (leave the wrapper on) Put the flashlight under/next to the water bottle and you have a light bottle. Put your electronics on cardboard or styrofoam and your shelter becomes a faraday cage I'm not a huge advocate of actual weapons because if you don't know how to use them then they can be used against you. Therefore, finding weapons in every day items is key. The dowel is perfect because it can be a stick, a wrench, an umbrella, etc... You may need money so in your bag keep a roll of quarters. Hold them in your fist when you punch for extra strength and if you add some heavy rings onto your fingers now you have "brass knuckles". I know you will have socks so put your soap, a rock, a handful of change, or anything else that is hard and use it as a weapon. If it gets down to hand to hand there are a few simple things I teach everyone * if they can't see they can't follow, go for the eyes with a thumb and gouge it out *if they can't breathe they can't follow, punch the throat, even if you don't punch really hard their trachea will start to swell and close the airway eventually. *if they can't walk they can't follow, take the knee out by kicking it from either side * if they aren't awake they can't follow, hit the side of the neck with a swift stiff knife hand chop and they will pass out. Even an old lady can hit a muscle man with her forearm or cane and he will drop. If you wish to avoid physical contact invite them to dinner and exchange the oregano with foxglove or any other indigenous poisonous plant. For running away get a high decibel keyring thing or home defense item for windows and use the flashing mode on your flashlight. This will disorient them enough for you to run. Osage orange is a good hedge to have around your property. I know several booby traps you can make. I know every day chemicals you can mix. There's so much I could teach you but you are probably thinking I'm crazy at this point. Which you're not far off! Ex military, taekwondo, nurse, and prepper. You pick stuff up along the way ya know what I mean? I'm glad you made a shelter, it's a wise thing to do. Although I think Don was more comfortable in the root cellar because he had a cot! I think Rachel was a good sport for sleeping in it with you and your daughter and the dog and was the chicken still there? 🤔😂 You definitely have a wonderful woman to face the end of the world with!

My concern is the air and filter. Hot air rises and I am sure the door is not airtight. A fan could help.
Great ideas Guys! I got the perfect hill just for one of those! Now on to finding the materials 👌
You'd need to fill in between those pieces of wood , maybe silicon caulking and steel flashing on the outside of the wood and the inside wall of wood as well. A place to to do ones business would be good to. A nice sleeping bag, pillow and thick foam for that bed/ shelf. A week's worth of food and water. A faraday box, spare batteries, ect. A cheap c/b radio as well as a super long antenna for the outside and if at all possible put it in on a giant telephone pole next to your shelter. Because you would want a lot of open space to receive any radio information. I would also suggest a signal flare gun a lighter or a magnesium stick and blade and a fire piston or something else that's easy or cheap to make fire with. You're going to want to bug out after seven days as quickly as possible so if you can have a vehicle that may not look best but can handle rough terrain maybe have 4-wheel drive or just a $300 vehicle that will get you out of the area as quickly as possible. Keep it close and under pond liner or multiple tarps. Keep the same kid of provisions in the car in the form of bug out back packs. Keep extra cans of gas safe but far and close enough to not catch anything else on fire but close enough to retrieve. Personally a hand gun and or rifle with a few boxes of ammo. I would also have a few gallons of booze and gold/silver as a way to barter since it's value will always be sustainable.
It’s good how you made the bunker small because if it is a bomb hitting it would mainly collapse if it’s a big shelter but this is good size
Longer pipe! Extra garage door panel! Solar panel for Jackery, water filtration stuff, more food and a weapon for hunting more food/protection
What are you going to relieve yourself in once you eat all those snacks and drink all that water? Love your energy man
You guys can "take a blast", right? 🤣🤣 That part was great! 🤣
Oh boy what fun. Great to watch, you made my day 😀. Please don't stop. All the best to you and yours from GB.
Very cool! Something anyone can make that has the room and materials! Sure an Atlas shelter would be "ideal" but this is a more down to earth design that normal people can afford. Would be good for lots of situations! Well done!

Without a proper air system it is a death trap. This without access to fresh water and food you will die In a nuclear disaster you have to stay underground about 30 days because yes because it will be heavy in the northern in the northern part of our planet. If it happens Research. Seriously because if you want to live through something like that?? You're gonna have to do a lot more than this
Somebody would love to live in that lil bunker full time . If I could build me a bunker it would be a lil bigger to also fit a bed and more stuff but I love you bed table setup . I would take the wood off of it and keep the door then replace the wood with thick concrete walls . But concrete is so expensive these days . My mama said that sometimes we have to work with what we have like you did . I would build some type of thick gate in front of that lil bunker to be more safer . But your lil bunker is better then nothing for protection . Its just so beautiful . I just love it . Miss . Linda ❤
When you're making a bug-out bag, don't forget your pet's food/treats/meds/blanket!
Bucket toilet with pool noodle seat. Cups. Smaller water jug to mix the tang. Needs a low cot on the one side wide enough for 2 adults. I'd have dug it into the ground deeper. Air intake needs some kind of suction to make it work and another hole with a filter for the air to get out. maybe an old shop vac?
What will you do about sealing the door? I see a LOT of light coming in, which could let in toxins?
When your daughter said to have beans for dinner my f'd up mind assumed she was talking about the dog. Ha ha...
😂 beans and tight space bunkers 👍🔥 That was fun
What a cliff hanger!! Great video once again!
🤣 this is funny but at least there is some sort of place to hunker down. I think he should just turn it into a supply room and make a separate place to have more room to sleep.
You better have an air exhaust port installed very low in the front wall! Also you need a fan for the air in pipe!
you're off with a basic good start. but there's much to improve upon. door thickness.... dirt above must be at least 28" thick packed. entrance area must be "funneled" outward, and with cover overhead. potty-jon? better long-term non contaminated air and water supply.... insulation against condensation....bunches of salt! buckets with sealable lids preferably plastic drywall buckets! more food! more wipes for hygiene, antibiotics, etc etc etc. you must have several caches because after you are safe to leave bunker, you may not be returning to your normal living arrangements for a while, and, maybe never! seeds, more food, more bottles of water, life straws, clothes and boots and coats per seasons of weather!!!! I'm glad you kept this video simple, and that you included a friend and your wonderful family! It's the reality of things that may help people to "prepare for the worst, even though we must still hope for the best! oh, and be sure that you are part of a good "tribe" should shtf!!!!! Y'all folks take care! let's pray about this and pray for one another, Brother! we must somehow come thru any possible situations "United"! Bo in North Carolina
I would caution use in the cartridge as it's used for negative air-purifying respirators. So the air in the chamber would have to be less than outside air pressure. Otherwise, it's ineffective.
I can't be the only car guy that saw him grinding away rust and immediately thought * Cylinder Hone*

Giant cylinder gone... Lol
I seen a show where the guys ears bleed because the lining of the steel around him echoed so loud it shattered his head, it was a gun going off but a load noise from the outside might cause damage to your head as well so all I’m saying is be careful because that’s a very small steel drum too.
