Backyard Underground Bunker Tour/Update 5 years on

In 2015 I dug up the entire garden under my feet and made an

underground

bunker

. That's almost five

years

old, how is it going to keep up? You never know when you might need it. As you can see, it blends completely. If you didn't know it was here, you wouldn't know it was here. The grass is the same now, it's quite flat. I have houses behind me that I didn't have before. The solid shed is still a really solid shed. If you want to see how to do it, there is a video that shows you how to do it!

That shed actually also won shed of the year in 2017 for the

bunker

part. Everything looks pretty normal up here, let's take a look inside. It's as amazing as the day I built it! This place has stopped in time, even the tape is still stuck to the walls, the staircase, of course, being made of stainless steel, it has no corrosion, no damage or anything, the only thing I have changed in the tunnels as I like to call it, I lacquered the walls and added four vents in the floor and I'll explain why I did it shortly when I'm in the main room.

The only other thing that has happened here that hasn't happened anywhere else in the entire bunker is a bit on the wall and it sounds hollow. I assume the cement is slightly shrunk. Nowhere else in the entire bunker does it sound. as. and then to the main part. This is still one of the best things I've ever done! now room statistics; It's 24 feet long, 16 feet wide, the roof is 8 feet high in the center, the whole thing is covered with about a foot of concrete, it's a little thinner in some places, and it's a little thicker in some places. , the distance between them.

The top of the roof and surface measure just under 3 feet, about 18 inches, almost half of that is concrete and also within that concrete is a load of steel beams for added strength. now in August 2020 it will be about 5

years

old and I'm here and it doesn't look any different than the day we did it. There are even still footprints on the ceiling from when the metal sheets were still piled up on top of the hole. Now there are some other brands. I have some black soot on the ceiling here because I have a flame-throwing guitar. We filmed that video down here.

I've been blatantly throwing flames at the ceiling because you can do it down. It's a metal box and the roof doesn't catch fire. This is one of the things I really use it for. It's a pretty good setting because it's constant, the lighting is always the same, there's no road noise, there's no wind down here, the video of me with my arm-mounted rocket launchers, I filmed it down here, we can shoot fireworks down here. below. It doesn't matter, there's a burn mark on the ceiling down there from when we blew up a drone. It's great for that, so they ask me if I use it. yes, I make other films here, I've got the 3D printer down here which can run all night and won't keep anyone awake, I watched Formula One here because it has Sky TV.

Also Rick, who helps me, is in a blues band, this is the best practice room for bands! It's soundproof, it's also where I keep a lot of my projects: we have the ejector bed, the termite launcher, the hook from Assassin's Creed, Wolverine's claws, a corridor made of knives, a fire rocket launcher, a guitar that flame thrower, multiple world records, folding. metal shield, wrist-mounted flamethrower, turkey cooking machine, magnetic shoes, wrist-mounted hydraulic jaws, hydraulic scissor shoes, there's a lot of cool stuff, you should probably subscribe! What is a room like? Well, the temperature is 12 degrees all year round, the ventilation has a high level above the door and a low level in this corner.

Now it has a fan in front, but we don't really use it anymore, it circulates on its own and you never come down here, it's never damp, it never stinks, it never leaks, the walls haven't rusted. The only problem we've had is a bit of condensation in the tunnel since the bandar came in here, but it turns out that that lacquer can be resolved by putting a duvet in and then keeping all the hot air out. there. fantastic! I wouldn't do it any different if I did it again. It's a perfect size, everything shiny! now but ask on my social media channels if you have any questions and these are the most popular ones. could you live in it?

Have you ever slept down there? Do you have supplies? Well, yes, I have some food, we have water, we have various bits and bobs. I have some rolls of toilet paper but no bathroom! I slept here a couple of times when we had that heat wave. I wouldn't want to live down here, mainly because there are no windows. How much did it cost and did you need planning permission? Yes, I got the building permit. Now I bought it retrospectively which was a bit risky but it also needed building regulations so building control had to come and check if they were happy with it and in terms of costs I can't give you an exact figure.

Number because it was a sponsored project and I'm contractually obligated not to give away that sort of thing, but with it you'd buy a pretty decent family saloon. Would it ever flood? No, I live on top of a hill, so if this place floods or fills with water, many other people will have drowned. Will there be any additions? Well, at some point I would like to expand it, but I would like to have a proper bathroom, but of course we have houses behind us, it is not so easy to remove all the debris. but what I'm working on now is a gasifier so we can run wood gas engines - very apocalyptic!

Will it add value to your home? I don't know if I'll ever sell it, but a real estate agent told me I would have to sell the bunker with the house attached, instead of the house with the bunker. and there we are, after five years, as solid as the day it was built. and I encourage anyone who has the space and money to build one. It's a fantastic room, especially with things the way they are in the world right now. I am very happy to have it. Now, if I've missed anything or there's anything else you want to know, stick it in the comments, I'll do my best to answer it as much as possible, but before I go, yeah, there's one cool thing I've done. here what I need to show you.

I have a smoke machine, the vents are blocked and I'm going to keep it on continuously. Let's whitewash this place! I'm here. Okie-doke watching the following video
