The episode i watched earlier today was insane. This guy spent nearly $200K on a prefab drop-in-ground bunker, made out of corrugated steel piping coated with a zinc oxide enamel. It was the size of a small submarine, and the finished interior of it was incredible. It looked like the inside of an A class RV, except without the benefit of windows for a view. Because of the cylindrical shape of it they were able to bury it a lot deeper underground than, say, a shipping container which are generaly square and rectangular and thus can't support as much weight.
I swear I could live in one of these things though. it had a beautiful floor, under which was enough room to store a ton of provisions. There was a beautiful kitchen and dining area, a nice bedroom area, a computerized command center with surface cameras and a ham radio. A fully working shower and toilet, ligting and appliances, a microwave, and all of it run independant of any outside service. There was a system at the back end of the thing that filters incoming air completely in the all 3 ways of major concern. There was also a large flatscreen tv and entertainment center. Not a square inch of space was wasted, yet there was still a lot of livable room.
The main hachway entrance was at one end and was quite secure with laser-cut perfectly sealed and very thick metal doors, impervious to gas or fire attacks. But at the other end they also included a well hidden emergency exit hatch. The guy could go up through there at any time and take out anyone attacking his main entrance.
The guy who manufactures this thing operates out of California. I tell you if any of you start going the way of a hardcore prepper this custom bunker would be like your ultimate prepping orgasm.
