Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to go travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling, and we didn’t want to stop after just one year! After achieving our new goal of 100 countries and then all 7 continents (check out our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY , we had no plans to slow down, until 2020 decided to force us to ;) which is when we bought a converted Sprinter van to start exploring our own country for the first time. #Vanlife was a major adjustment and so different than flying every week like we were used to, but we are incredibly thankful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎

You should go to Sioux Falls South Dakota
This video aged like fine wine
Wouldnt take long before your neighbours decide if they kill you off they can have your food!
In case you haven't heard, we're staring down the barrel of a nuclear war right now lol this video aged perfectly
@@GlorifiedGremlin Lol so whats the plan hide in your bunker until your neighbours decide to eat your food? or you decide to eat your neighbours?
Then come outside to a desolate short lived life?
Dang 35k for a bunker sounding kinda good vs 15 to 30 year mortgage
@Fredpool Rogers It’s a hardened home worst case. Bullet resistant for sure.
not including actually making it into a home
He lied though, reality is vivos picked up that land for next to nothing (cost per acre out there is vary low, and the bunkers lower it even more). Its kinda a scam because if you read into their "membership" details. Its 35k for membership then 1k a year under a lease with additional 100 month in HOA fee's (for "security" or some shit). If you really want to live in the middle of no where, you can pickup 40 to 60 acre lots all over the country for 35 to 100k. When you buy a house most of that cost is not the house it self, its the land its on and where its located.
Scam, I checked his website and its 45,000 thousand
That is such a miss representation should be criminal, Those are not bunkers, they are magazines for storage.
I like how the guide doesn't seem like a crazy doomsday prepper like you would see on TV. It seems like he just enjoys the process of making the bunkers, building them, giving them a second life, basically a glorified man cave, and the end of the world scenarios is an afterthought.
Most preppers are not even close to what the media props them up to be.
@@willowgrove9288 I agree, nothing wrong with being prepared. Even if it’s basic like having some flashlights or extra water if the power goes out for a few days, such as the winter storm that hit Texas abit ago
@@willowgrove9288 A lot of what the media tells you isn't true, or is only partially true. Also, a lot of what is true, the media wont speak about it.
Its easier to treat us doomsday people with more respect, now that the threshold of the apocalypses has come and gone. :-) Now its just a matter of managing it.
A lot of the shows are type casting. They are looking for the ones that seem crazy. Most preppers can’t even afford to go to this extreme. Bug out bag and full tank of is enough in most cases.
This was really fun to watch. In my experience the prepper/off-grid people I've met have actually been really interesting and not crazy at all. Just normal people who like to use and test their skills to survive without all the crap we've come to rely on. I wish I was able to build things and have the electrical know-how to maintain alternate power systems. And imagine -- these people have almost no monthly bills?
Not crazy at all... lmfao 🤣🤣
@@JimSeward92 Most preppers/survivalists I know do it just as a hobby, they find it fun and engaging.
Jim seems like the kind of person who'd be violently banging at someone's bunker and demand they let him in when shit actually hits the fan, lmao.
Everyone has monthly bills I'm sure they pay property tax LOL and they eat
It's 1100 a year + the base cost of the echo chamber. 1 video said 35 another said 45. Then materials and labor. Then furnishings Monthly is probably only cell phone Internet fuel and grocery. Not bad at all. And I'm sure it's only going to get better.
The most appealing thing to this whole video was it “seems” like it could be a very safe neighborhood to live in. The potential is definitely unlimited
I appreciate that you approach any topic with the utmost respect, and willingness to learn and understand. You truly humanized people who others might be so quick to judge.
Totally agree !
Yes 100%.
People don't know the power of understanding and open-mindedness nowadays. It's SO refreshing to see.
I appreciate it, too. I was half-expecting an unfair, judgmental portrayal of people who just want to be responsible for their futures, but they both showed a willingness to suspend their views and listened to the people living there.
Here here!
“If you’ve never heard of a VPN before, you’ve probably never watched our channel.” Lol
🤣🤷🏻♀️
y
Kara more of a man than nate
@@Kallavs Theres enough negativity. You don't need to unnecessary compare people. Watch what you say, irrespective of who it is. Be kind to people
@@KaraandNate hiii I love you guys so much!!
That “crazy prepper” guy was extremely level headed and rational…love it!
The media loves to portray preppers as crazy doomsday people. I think that people would be better off not being so totally dependent upon "the system". I'm sure that there is great satisfaction in knowing that you can live without all of that. I'll bet that the community there in Bunkerville is the best thing about living there. Think of the aggregate skillsets residing in that rather small area. Need an electrician, plumber, doctor, carpenter? They are probably your nearby neighbors.
I think in a situation that would actually require bunkers, in a complex that large, one or more of your neighbors will eventually start breaking into and raiding other bunkers.
Yup. That wouldn’t be pretty. You know it would happen too as soon as someone runs out of supplies.
Why people equate being prepared with being crazy is beyond me. It's more accurate to describe people who aren't prepared as crazy.
The same reason atheists associate true believers with American Christianity.
@@ArielCotton *blink*
Look at it this way. That guy in the orange shirt, with that gun strapped on his waist. Why is it there? Like, does he think the youtuber is going to try to kill him or something? Does he have to be armed standing in his own bunker? He is crazy. Virtually all preppers are delusional and have bizarre end-of-the-world fantasies. That's what makes them into preppers in the first place.
@@MrCharliebbarkin lol I'm praying this is sarcasm. Cause it's ridiculous.
@@OriginalMusic1983 No, really. You go to tour some guy's bunker, and he has a gun strapped to his waist, and you think he's A-OK in the head? No one thinks that.
"Trying to keep your jeep as clean as possible" "Haha Goodluck!" 😂😂
Right!!!! Love your channel, Sarah
Hey, y'know, some people might think it strange but it looks awesome out there and they can make their own spaces and be responsible for their own lives and it's great!
Might want to ask what was stored in them before buying. At the Umatilla Chemical Weapons Depot in Eastern Oregon, many of the bunkers held VX nerve agents and mustard gas. Many of the bombs that contained them leaked as well. I had the opportunity to work out there when the place was being decommissioned but didn't figure the risk of exposure was worth the compensation.
Canisters of agents were used in specially designed private residences, I discovered also. Maybe they won't tell you even when asked as part of a "that's for me to know and you to find out" scheme.
I don't remember who said it: you can ignore reality but you can't ignore the consequences of ignoring reality.
Ayn Rand
Wise words.
Well said friend.
Sun Tzu
"Travelling... allows you to interact with people who may see the world a bit differently than you do"... God knows how much we need that in our polarised world & times!
Interesting. I'd be as much interested in something like this as a potential for utilizing a preexisting building and rehabbing it into homes and public spaces. But I do agree with Kara and Nate that Sound Deadening material would have to be on the top of the list, at least in room with the natural con curved roof. I suspect a good bit of thermal insulation also needs to be included in the planning.
I will never stop watching the world through you guys!! Thank you for the wholesome content day in and out 💓🌍💓
This is such a good example of 'to each their own'. If the apocalypse hits, I'm not so fussed about surviving if it means living a different kind of life. I'll be in the city drinking cocktails if it all goes down, but I totally appreciate what they're building here and how it works for them.
Thank you
Great attitude!
You say that without thinking about your loved ones.
@@alejandrotapia5800 What if their loved ones aren’t alive right now? If I were his loved ones, I wouldn’t want to survive age an apocalypse knowing that everyone else would have passed away.
@@alejandrotapia5800 "to each their own"
the best part of this video was when they asked they guy what kind of scenarios he could envision, he was like 'i try not to worry about it, i just worry about building the great stuff we've got here'. Really good response.
what kind of scenarios he could envision
The 1st answer would be "Becoming a sect leader" and having a harem
Did Rael do that already ?
Looks like an amazing place for a home base while not traveling, lots of nice, skills people. And a good place for wind generators for power and heating.
Dante called it right. We're in the middle of some crazy international tension right now and it's terrifying.
Glad you painted these people for who they are, kind people, with a good sense of humor, with a strong sense of what has real value in life and what's just consumed.
Most preppers are like this, not every one lives in a container fort in the Arizonan desert, most just live ordinary life, but are hell bent on not being dependent on corporations and the government.
Any one not having a little bit of the prepper inside awakened after last years empty shelves, lockdowns, rising food and fuel prices and the coming recession: don't knock on my door.
That greet visitors with sidearms?
@@skyjuiceification An armed society is a polite society.
@@skyjuiceification Knowing what you do about the world, why wouldn't you be prepared to defend yourself and your family?
@@skyjuiceification I don't know this guy, but I carry myself. I'd bet a cup of coffee that him carrying a gun had 0% to do with greeting visitors or anyone else. He probably puts his gun on with his pants, and doesn't think any different about it than he would his keys, wallet, phone, and pocket knife. Just part of being ready for what the day may bring.
They’re still out of their minds.
As a community they should look into buying that flat unused land across from the bunkers to build multiple greenhouses and fruit and nut orchards, maybe even build a massive man made pond or lake and stock it with fish! 🙂
Wow now that’s a great idea! I was wondering if they would be tornado proof!
One problem...
Nuclear fallout 🤪
@@godsbeautifulflatearth I was referring to getting what they can and preserving it as they have time. Fresh food is 1,000 times better than prepared with tons of preservatives.
How would you continue the power going if you don't have sunlight. Power should be used on in emergencies in my mind.
@@leahtaylor7322 Again I was talking about harvesting resources before you had to go underground, but solar for power, geothermal for heating and cooling and if you could make those greenhouse's aquaponic 3x yield.
I like everything beside the vetting process…Something just seems off about that process…one of the coolest things I’ve ever saw
Love this. Everything theyre doing, im here for it ❤️ I'd love to buy one of those or have one of those here in my country.
I had no idea these existed! Thanks for showing us the hidden parts of the world!
Neither did we!
@@KaraandNate how’d you find it?
Yes!!!!
As Igloo is known to any West River person it is not "a hidden" part of the world.
Kara and Nate in 2030: where going to space 😀😀
To an unexplored planet that wasn’t on anyone’s radar!
🤞
I love this comment
I believe that this community should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing Kara and Nate on the Moon and returning them safely to the Earth.
@@KaraandNate hi, you need to buddy up with Elon 🤪.
35k is amazing Nate and Kara and I really love the size of the bunker it really could be a amazing inside . Really enjoying the video
“International tensions could be a concern in the future.”
Understatement of the century my friend.
I bet that guy HAS driven 2 hours to get a Wendy's Frosty, at least once.
The sadness in his eyes
I buy 4 large Frosty's at a time (the interior size of my cooler) and put them in the freezer when I get home. That'll usually last me from 3-4 weeks. It's just not worth it to drive 1.5 hours round-trip to the Wendy's otherwise. And if you HAVE SOMETHING you don't *CRAVE* it, so that sense of wanting it goes away.
There's a Wendy's 2 minutes away from me, you couldn't pay me to eat their awful, cold, moldy food
They need convert one of the bomb storage Bunker's into a Wendy's
I bet that guy has driven 6 or 7 hours to get a Five Guys or Shake Shack burger!
I'd say preppers are possibly the most optimistic people. To do everything they can to survive a SHTF scenario takes a lot of optimism.
Has an engineer I think the same. Those 'Bunkers'' are nothing better than a normal concrete house with a basement. They are not even underground, i can see clearly water filtration issues which means radiation will leak in. But anyways radiation will leak in anyways because the air sistem has no scrubbing system or have powersources.
I would take my chances in my concrete house basement.
Real bunkers are made near aquifers, o dams. That way you have a giant batery next to you. And have MASIVE industrial scrubbers.
without a farm you are up a creek eventually anyways...
The old man was so proud of everything in that bunker, absolute g
Build year round greenhouses on some of them and put the produce in one bunker to be used as a local food store but for free to support the community.
As long as I could get internet and have a really good 4 wheel drive then I would live in one of these. I had a house in a small town in the middle of the desert once, the skies without lights truly are a beautiful thing to see and the super quiet.
Same...for 35k? Those things are pretty spacious. Definitely need my internet though lol. Kinda sucks that you have to go 2 hours to the nearest wendy's though :P
With Starlink, internet is no longer a concern.
@@murc111 starlink is not available to everyone yet, eventually.
i've been watching you both for two years now and the thing only thing i just can't believe is how you don't have a netflix show yet !
Very true
netflix is dumb, they would support the hype house over this
Because netflix probably couldn't afford their content. I wouldn't be surprised if they made more off youtube than what netflix would offer.
Netflix is not good enough for Kara and Nate. Lol
Well they do use VPN to watch other Netflix content lol
If you guys haven't been to Michigan, visit West Michigan! We have some amazing beaches; especially during the Summer!
The dude blasting "Don't Stay" by Linkin Park @ 5:50 earns my respect more so than he already did for renovating these cool ass bunkers!
Kara, I maintain that teaching and caring for children is an essential skill. Imagine a scenario when families are gathered. They would need care and education for the children. You have those essential skills!
Haha you’re so right! Great thought
@@KaraandNate in such communities the role of a teacher for kids and all around 'morale officer' is the most important for the survival of the whole colony.
And caring for other adults too, healthy or sick. Plus, cleaning is important for food safety and public health, not just aesthetics.
At first this seems a little nuts but I have to admit this is pretty cool 😂
I wish I was as prepared! They will be the ones calling us nuts when they have supplies and we are dying....
Div and Benny commented!!!
If you're a rich guy, you need one of these in your real estate portfolio just in case.
Look at some of the vetting questions. In a "shit hit the fan" scenario, they think beauticians and RELIGIONS are going to help them pull through.
Preppers are mentally insane. If "the world as we know it" ends, this is not where civilization will go to rebuild itself.
@@locutusofborg2880 thanks for telling the truth.
Good luck to them. As for myself i'd like to go quickly with a beer in one hand and a ciggie in the other.😂
I like how the tour guide that was planning for the apocalypse was one of the most mellow people i've ever seen. it makes sense i just wasn't expecting it
I really applaud you guys for keeping an open mind. Too many say they do, but then ridicule ideas that are different. Thank You!!
Kara and Nate were polite when visiting, but I got the sense they think the bunker people are nuts.
Hi Kara and nate me and my mom are doing vanlife soon our high top can not be done bcuz all of the snow it is to hard but on the good hand I get to listen to ROCK !!!!!!!! Love you guys peace ✌🏽 ❤
Saw this on Atlas Survival Shelters here on TH-cam he did a tour of it all, pretty cool. Atlas company can make you a bunker any size at their facility out of Texas that you can place on your own land.
I especially loved the second half of this - meeting some of the other people living there. With how intense my job can be, I can't imagine having to take even more time out of my day to do all the chores that being on the grid allows me to never think about. Props to the guys who live there and do it daily! 🙌
Yes!!!
tom teleworked there for almost all of 2020 during covid. Wifi indoors worked great for him!
We didn’t even know these existed now we might actually get one 😂 so cool 😎
Dontai and Kaory, you are awesome!
Why the fuck would you get a bunker lmao😂😂
@@JouwMoeder geeze calm down
@@JouwMoeder why not? It’s not so expensive.
@@JouwMoeder your reaction is very odd
Considering some people already live there, prior to any apocalypse, they should probably set up some community center with maybe something like Trees or another to make it feel homey until the end happens. That way they can use that space for growing and fresh canned food.
Lol “until the end happens”. Ok
If i were skeptical about buying a bunker 5 years ago I'd definitely be seriously thinking about buying one now.
Hi, Kara and Nate! I'm Daisy from Mumbai, India. We are again in a lockdown as the covid pandemic has caused a lot of stress here. It is your videos that help me get rid of the stress and relax! I've been binge watching from the start! Just wanted to say thank you! HOPE TO MEET YOU SOME DAYYYY!❤ TAKE CARE!
Stay safe Daisy, I’ve heard India is going through horrible covid cases right now.
Praying you all are safe in India!
Praying for you Daisy
Daisy - Praying for safety and good health for you and your family!
Daisy--I'm so sorry to hear about what India is experiencing right now. Sending my positive thoughts your way, and hoping things improve soon.
I'm a bit of a worrier by nature, I find your optimism so helpful! It's especially comforting during these most challenging of times we live in! Thank you so much!
I think if they want to ensure that it's safe for fallout protection they should add underground tunnels connecting the seperate bunkers so it's safer.
so interesting. i wonder what it would be like in summer...kind of want to see people growing their own veg, or have hydroponics, solar power etc
I have a friend who built a cool log home with all the modern conveniences, yet they live completely off grid. Self sufficiency isn’t such a bad thing, goodness the majority of us are sooo dependent & not as independent as we’d like to think we are.
That is my ultimate goal for my husband & I once we get this last kid out of our house 😂 sell away my suburban life & move AWAY from other humans!
@@sherryyyberryyy235
And never see your children or grandchildren again?
Or rarely at the most?
You're a very different person than I am. More power to ya.
He can stay there 4 years... First of all, a bunker must be 1000 feet underground. Furthermore, after a breakdown or an impact, you will have to move after a few days because everything will be contaminated, INCLUDING YOUR "BUNKER"! You know that, didn't you?
@@sherryyyberryyy235 My goal as well...Like I told My Son, Sure there are bad people, but for the most part, people as individuals are not that bad....people as a large group....they are/can be like herd animals. They will panic, flee, and do the most stupid things possible, when they should remain calm and think.
So as I said, I want to be far from the masses.
@@johnniewoodard648 I very much agree! My friend was murdered 3yrs ago because of the color of her skin. Mass church shooting & needless to say ever since I have a new found fear of people in general. If going to church is no longer safe then what is?
When I was a kid, I would spend summers with my grandparents near Edgemont. I visited this place a few times. It always had a ghostly feel to it. There's a lot of interesting places in this region south of the Black Hills. It's nice to see people reusing this place.
Galveston Texas has a ghostly feel and it's ghost infested.
ppl may be living here if WW3 breaks out and it becomes nuclear armagedon
With edgemont at least you didn’t need a hot water heater lol. I used to live in Pringle
“If you didn’t chop your wood…” bro what wood? You’re in SOUTH DAKOTA😂 great video. That made me laugh
Good vid. Nice job. This bunker stuff is pretty interesting. Best wishes on your journey.
I visited there from Denver and was absolutely floored by how beautiful the night sky looks. Living in a city with light pollution you forget that there are more than a dozen stars in the sky! It's strange to say that I've met all of the residents that were interviewed here and they really are genuinely nice, kind hearted people who love thing in that community.
I’m an introvert and this just seems like heaven to me 😂
I was thinking the exact same thing 😂 This is what introverts dreams are made of
I agree.. I would be FINE there.
I agree 😂🤷🏾♀️
Same, I'd do something like this
I would want more light
Very cool! if i were to buy one, i'd probably build some kind of look out tower on top of it.
Also plant some tree's, as they can absorb all kinds of stuff, besides, who doesnt like more green...
"so this is my pride and joy"
*Zooms in on his sidearm* 😂
Me living 20 miles away from this and had no idea they existed🤦♀️
It's possibly more needed than ever if this nation breaks out .
Maybe you visit there or you find work there
thats kinda the point of a hidden bunker area... being ... hidden
I don't think these are meant for the public.
There's Hope for you!😎❤️
Bunker? Those are Explosives Magazines. Everything from bullets to bombs and missiles were stored in those. Also, they are not "underground", they are earth covered. Big difference. Signed US Navy Veteran who was an Aviation Ordnancemen for 20 years.
Preach it brother IYAOYAS!!! Corbetta magazine and they are not designed for what they are being portrayed to be lol. No air supply, no running water so not sure how it works. Nothing against the Tubers but it's very misleading in my eyes.
@@robertwebsterii3099 Once I saw these, I knew this was a scam. It clearly isn't even plumbed and wired so you have to install everything. It's no bargain. I wouldn't pay these fraudsters a penny.
that is a great idea, you get safety from doomsday and when it settles a bit, the massive community can build a settlement
The potential to make an "Anchor Point" for personal sustainability, then work from that to build your dream House is incredible. I would love to see underground tunnels linking them, with shops, restaurants and entertainment venues to support the community. You could also build glass structures over the tops, to have plants to help recycle air quality and possibly add reflective vents for inner sunlight, you could even use glass technology, using variable glazing, to Screen out UV Light in a way similar to welding masks, especially if you're still worried about "Armageddon"!?!!
Far from doomsday preppers, but it's kind of fascinating to see how they prepare for scenarios.
💯
@@KaraandNate you make the best videos I’ve ever seen please never stop
Detour Duo commented!!! Fangirling
What do you mean, far from peppers?
I watched about two episodes of that show....I think the producers went out of their way to find the most eccentric people they could....will not call them crazy, but a real prepper does not advertise.
He has a really good “vibe” . If he was all fear-based and militant I would be put off . But I can see the possibilities and that he would draw ppl in who you wouldn’t mind having as neighbors , friends ? Now all they need is a landscaper/visionary with an eye for HUGE projects .
Unfortunately some of these people like to think that his IS militant for no reason other than the man having a gun on his hip. In America lol
It's a doomsday bunker not a country club,
A good generator and battery combo will run 150 gallons of gas for over a year and a half. You can always just throw this in your basement, after making it sealed and 2 feet thick walls.
Now you have a bunker, the cost is extra concrete, air units and a generator/ battery and a blast door.
i'd totally get one if i'm from US. seems like a fun project to work on and spend weekends at.
Kara’s personality is so inspiring and she is so funny and makes me laugh every time I watch the videos and nate’s energy matches kara’s personality so well. Love you guys so much
Speaking of the night sky and seeing the Milky Way, you guys need to experience Big Bend...it’s such a magical place!
I like the super subtle zoom in and stay on the gun 😅
Hinges on the steal entry door are easily cut with a grinder. They should be on the inside of the door.
"The bunker can withstand the shock wave from any potential attack"...but the generator placed outside the bunker probably won't
That's why they were build far apart to avid a chain reaction, then... Riiight....
@@Johangv have you not seen the amount of munitions that they stored in 1 bunker?
or the solar panels
The proper way to set up a bunker is to have a separate room inside for the generator. If you have an external power supply, it doesn't matter how safe and secure your bunker is.
@@Skinflaps_Meatslapper
In other words.....these people have no idea what they're doing.
I'm from SD and I have been to these bunkers when I was young because my brother lived near them in a very small town and took us there. I so miss the wide open sky! Living in Mississippi with all the trees there's no open sky. 😞
Ver informative, nice editing. :)
Love the zoom in on the pistol. Like why? Buddy is being super nice and giving you a tour while you point out his piece? I'm sure you were the safest you've ever been lol
It’s called people who were raised with zero firearms presence so they are kind of shocked swing one IRL
@@thejohnhend I hear you. I'm Canadian and the only people that are allowed to walk around with firearms or cops. But whenever I go to the States it's never bothered me at all. I'm a firearms owner myself but we're just not allowed to carry. So maybe that's the difference. To me it was just an odd zoom.
This is amazing and the community seems like really nice people.
If there is something like that in Canada I would totally buy in!
He was so aware of how he had to choose his words. He did a very good job but it's sad that he has to at all.
Who?
Yep!
you can tell this guy has had time to mentally and emotionally grapple with the possibility of actually having to see these bunkers become needed for what they are prepping for
I'm not a prepper, but I live happily secluded from society. I believe in living in harmony with nature and my existence causing it no harm.
25 years ago, I learned about the thermal efficiency of bermmed 'monolithic concrete domes' and fell in love with the whole concept for off grid. No heating, no A/C, no heavy energy usage, expensive monthly bills, and minimal solar installation costs.
Just add an aquaponic greenhouse for sustainable, organic food, w/o plastics, nor transportation pollution.
BTW, you don't have to 'hide inside your bunker'. I watch the world, including the adventures of Kara and Nate, from wifi.
This would be a cool weekend getaway for just a place to have to just get away from it all for a weekend.
I love how this channel evolve from a travel channel to nate and kara does apocalyptic living.
Tis the season!
"now this can withstand any natural disaster from the outside"
Yellowstone Super Volcano" Are you sure about that?"
I was thinking the same thing ....
Large Space Rock: "What about me?"
If you go to their website, it shows how they are outside of the blast radius. Idk about the ash and ice age that would follow though
Yellowstone isn't nearly as outright destructive as people think. The massive explosion absolutely will cause damage but only locally, the real danger comes from the ash falling back down.
And the ring of fire , And a Big ass rock hitting earth . 😂
Plumbing and Sewer piping and septic tank or city sewer would be the biggest question in my mind.
Electric not so much.
Nice, plenty of bike parking and a nice ride to Sturgis.
In the event of Nuclear war I have a plan. Grab my lawn chair and a bottle of Jack, then sit in the middle of my backyard. Adios.
Love it and totally agree.
I'm so glad I get to live vicariously through your videos. I had my first child at 14 and my husband and I been together 15 years. We have 5 kids together. We are still young so when our kids are grown we will be 40 years old and we want to travel. This inspires me so much.
I suggest you to start travel now before it’s too late. If you’re really want it. Who knows what may happen tomorrow.
I have 5 kids and a full time career. Can't start now. Lol. But I will be 40 years young when all 5 kids are grown and gone. So we will be traveling then.
@@BrittneyLees kids never go away, they have kids, come home, use you as babysitters. Better get them straightened out asap. My Mom used to tell us 5 kids that at 18 we need to either be in college , have a job and don't even think about coming back. She said that's what her Mom told her and her many siblings. But now days that's it's a lot more difficult. Good luck.
Great idea, park the survival bunkers right next door to a huge Minuteman ICBM field in South Dakota, at the smack-center of the first-strike zone of death.
@@FinFlickstv You may be right, as they seem to have retired those I knew about in the '80s, but to quote Wikipedia, "Some 450 of the newer Minuteman III missiles are still on active duty at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, Minot AFB, North Dakota, and F. E. Warren AFB, Wyoming."
I remember when they first announced this place. The website admitted that it was for a lease of several decades and then Vivos would take it back, along with any improvements you had made. I can't find that on the website now, but i bet it is still a thing hidden in the contracts.
Ah, that kinda ruins the appeal
It's great watching these kinds of episodes. interviewing locals and their lives. There is so much to learn from other people's stories. Thank you!
it'd be cool if they could make an underground series of tunnels connecting them as well
I wonder what's under the bunkers and what the laws are on expanding your bunker. I would personally love to extend the bunker downwards (if I had that kind of money to throw around).
@@JDWonders not that I'm an expert or anything lol but i imagine if you owned the land then there shouldn't be any issue. May want to look into the mineral rights for the area too?
I'm sure it's *possible* ... but *feasible* without spending twice what the bunker *and* the re-hab cost, just to maybe have connections to, say, the 3 nearest other bunkers? It'd be *way cool* but I think that's something only the most well-off could pull off! But hey, if you win the lottery, _maybe_ ... 👌 😊
That would be good for help but wat if you have people that just dont leave yu alone and arguments start but i hate the community and the greed also All about ME so id love to live there 4 ever
@@stormhawk1625 yeah you'd need lockable doors for sure.
Honestly, they sound like stationary RVers with more space. 😅 From using office systems to needing to drive 2 hours to civilization to the pristine night skies, I can totally relate. But I prefer a bunker that moves. Maybe one day I'll settle down!

Wow that Dude is so genuine, nice, well spoken and seems to have a wonderful community growing. I would love to have a safe place to retreat to in a crisis but to have a community during that time would be priceless..
They're all libertarian SovCits. If the shit were to ever hit the fan, they'd turn on each other, lol. Why are they all armed in a place like that? It's gated, and anyone who doesn't belong there would be challenged before getting 50' from the gate.
Yay! So Happy you took my recommendation! I love this place! I went here and explored when it was still abandoned
Wow, lived south of there about 2 hours for almost 10 years in the 90s and never knew it was there
I'm relatively sure that those buildings were originally designed to not wholly contain an internal blast, rather to keep it from spreading laterally to the next structure. Essentially, the pressure of the blast was intended to shoot upward. Although these structures would offer a greater deal of safety than an average home, they are unlikely to be as strong as suggested in the video. The whole community aspect of the thing is interesting however, and it looks like the target market for such a neighborhood would figure out how to defend themselves from the filthy remnants of humanity that are sure to become roving bands of fallout pirates bent on attacking.
My little sister is your biggest fan. She watches y’all non stop! Thank you so much for taking a picture with her today. It made her entire day! She is still smiling ear to ear. 🤩🤩
Edit: 5 hours later and She is still going on and on about how she can’t believe she met you. She is so star struck. She keeps looking at the photo too. Thank you guys for making her day.
@Nagolbud envy is dangerous but having someone or someone's actions to look up to is not a bad thing.
First video I’ve found from you guys and I swear I’m in love with the whole concept of your life, channel and the dynamic between you guys is incredible. Finding a relationship like yours is my new life goal lol. You’ve got a new subscription for sure
Kara and Nate are definitely relationship goals ❤
Bunch of bunkers around Hastings,Ne also, thank you for the video.
