I survive 24 hours underground without coming out. I have to build my way out of this mess. I build a bed, shelves, and cook meals in the spider hole in this epic survival challenge.
Free delivery and free installation for power kit purchases (not including orders with 400W rigid solar panels). Payment Installment plans are available.
Kevin of Modern Self Reliance digs deep, using the EcoFlow to power his jackhammer, blasting through clay and rock to clear out thousands of pounds of dirt and build a 10 x 10' hidden room underground!
Using the EcoFllow to power his drill and tools, Kevin is able to secure his underground bunker safely, building a wooden frame to add stability and style: his underground bunker feels like home thanks to EcoFlow!
Underground lighting to work safely is no problem, with EcoFlow portable power.
I build an authentic Japanese military spider fox hole with just a few basic tools including a small army shovel, some metal buckets, and some rough saw timbers to help create a safe place to sleep overnight in case of impending war.
A spider hole is mirrors the hole created by a trapdoor spider who will tunnel and then cover the top of the door to conceal itself.
A spider hole is usually shoulder-deep, and round, protective enough to camouflaged lid a solder from attack. A soldier will be able to stand upright and then fire a weapon without being overly exposed. A spider hole is different than a foxhole in that a foxhole is usually deeper and designed to hide or conceal a fighter.
A spider hole is usually hastily dug, whereas a foxhole is done with more care.
Spider holes were used during World War II by Japanese. Saddam Hussein during the Iraq war was captured hiding in a spider hole.

"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. - บันเทิง

@Hondad95 good question, Murphy's law expect the unexpected
I found a full working toilet seat with a lid that sits on top of a 5 gallon bucket at Walmart in America. I think you're in Canada that you can probably go to Walmart online or find one somewhere else bro. Believe me it makes a difference when sitting down on a 5 gallon bucket to do your number two
Paint the bottom of the light silver it'd look like a ufo
Did you make TH-cam mad? The algo hasn’t recommended the newest 4 videos…
ever think about what you would do if a tree falls on the hatch?
I think your spider hole is definitely the coolest project you've shown us. It's every boys dream to build a hidden bunker! At least every boy here in Kentucky ;)
Missouri isn’t much different!
You mean child molestor and rapist dream that’s crazy idk any kids that like that…
Weirdos
@@MaxGolden Neither is Australia 😂
And Girls 👏👏 Glued to this channel for a long time now. Kevin and Don's projects are nothing short of genius!!! My mind goes into overdrive after one!
I read the entire Ryan’s th-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans and was able to make a shed plan. Using Ryan’s Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is great. Where I wish I knew more is with respect to ground preparation and foundations. Maybe that's beyond the scope of Ryan’s Shed Plans.
I'd buy a silica dehumidifier tub, they use them in boats/yachts to keep air moisture down. They're also good for small basement rooms.
To save on space if you wanted since you have wood on all your walls, you could set up a hammock for your bed then just unhook one side when you're not sleeping
Idk, the fear of your own weight accidentally pulling/breaking one of the corner beams and possibly caving in the room would fill me with fear. The bed is fine where it is for now.
@@zzzdarkcloudzzz4233 if you built it that weak you already fkd up.
Make it hinged to the wall so it can fold up flat against the wall out of the way. It can be supported by chains or, perhaps better, legs that fold down so you don’t have to worry about it pulling off the wall. Oo, a double fold down! The padding and bedding on a flat sheet (held in place by a loose bungee cargo net) folds up against the wall leaving a table. But the table can also fold up over the bedding layer out of the way when you need extra floor space! I’ve got a cabin half built in my mind already. Maybe next year I’ll make a video. Thanks for the inspiration!
Jesus loves you alot trust in His death 4 salvation and be saved from eternal hell
You could do just a thick wood pole buried in the ground close to wall. Two on each side attach hooks for hammock. Nothing attached to wall
Wow I just started digging my own spider hole for SILENT meditation and found your videos... but reading the comments I noticed this video was uploaded yesterday! What timing! Great minds think alike!
Be sure to check out part 1 and part 2
I think this is one of the greatest ideas you've ever had, this has been an amazing series and I don't think you're done with it yet. I think there is plenty of room for expansion and building an underground mansion. The way the world is going I think this is genius. I'd like to see just how big you can actually make it. How many rooms, how deep you can go, great working environment during the winter and the summer. Keep up the good work, hey where's Don??
Please be careful…..cave ins are a thing. Scary.
Inb4 Don starts becoming a dwemer.
Mmmm, "building a secret tunnel bunker" and making a youtube series out of it is truly one of the greatest and most original ideas ever
@@TheAcer4666 his take is different and being done for different reasons then others. (I think I know of which series you are referring to)
@@speedy01247 Doesn't stop him using a clickbait title to ride on the coattails of someone else's success
That’s quite the hidden room you’ve made there maybe you need a auger like used for moving grain down the shaft to get dirt out so you can just keep digging now you need to run wires up along a tree to some solar panels to recharge your Ecoflow battery. Keep the videos coming love them .
he could build a mini pumped hydro system
Thats a really good idea! I was pondering " how the hell would you get the dirt out"... thanks!
stick an old shed on top of it. then you'd have some camo for ventilation wifi etc..
@@correctpolitically4784 Wouldn't be so well-hidden though!
@@roxxram9151 yea but do you really want that ? I'd rather have some focal point that wasn't me. Like 50 ft away in what would be my kill zone .Or you could just bury pvc pipe and put the vent anywhere.
Just replace the rubber seal inside the spigot of your water jug, they can wear out over time. However 20+ years is really good for something you’ve used so much. Also goes to show how durable things used to be
So since you hit sand, buy a driven well point, they are easy to drive in sand. You could actually make a driver for the rotary hammer. Since you are so far down already, just the point and one section of well pipe may be enough
If you don’t get the sand point. It would be best to line your well so it doesn’t collapse.
hi
Jesus loves you alot trust in His death 4 salvation and be saved from eternal hell
@@Fit4C that had nothing to do with the previous conversation and nothing provoked it, maybe seek some help Incase it is a regular thing.
Not about the relegious background, but that you throw it in without any context could be a sign of psychosis, got a few People in my surroundings that show similar patterns when they have psychotic phases.
Number two should be easy to do
I'd love to see you keep digging, put a bunch of rooms in there . To me that would be epic!
A tunnel running to all of his other projects!
yes he could dig until he has a nice underground fortress.
I'd love to see this!
What about the ventilation, though?
I'm curious on three things if you have time? 1.Have you waterproofed the hole? 2.Have you checked to see if light shine's through while standing outside the hole? 3.Is similar to question 2, but with sound. You don't want to get wet, be seen or heard.
I'd use a smaller stump for the fresh air intake... you can wire a 3v fan for the duct Also for circulation... this project keeps getting better... a well inside the bomb shelter/spider hole? That's awesome...
When you talked about being possibly bored in a shelter I thought that was spot on. Because like you said we are always busy doing this or that. But you have great ideas to pass the time as you said expanding is an idea. Lots of things to do I'm sure. I like your ceiling lighting idea that is sweet. Maybe you could put a couple of wireless camera's outside you shelter to alert you to any visitors and just to see out.
You need to set a trail cam overlooking the hole that connects to the TV so you can see who's outside from in the hole
I agree
Exactly
like the entrance to the rust train tunnels. I like it
Packing quilts make really warm blankets. I love the way you built the bunker. I plan on building mine very soon, cause the SHTF is about to go down. One good thing about being under ground, is that you can stay cool in the summer, and stay warm in the winter. Also will protect you from nuclear fall out. Great job bud!! I also used to build houses for a living so this will be no problem for me. God bless you and your family!!!✝️👈🏼❤️🔥🙏👍🏼
there was a picture in my training booklet of a NVA tunnel where they hid their air vents with mock ant/termite mounds. The log you used is decent but kind of conspicuous if someone were to notice it's hollow and not a naturally growing stump. Maybe try upgrading it with a more natural-looking stump?
I think, for the ceiling light, you should have screwed the screws in until they poke out the other side. That way, once you get it in position, you won't need to hold it for so long before the 1st screw penetrates. Also, those screws won't hold more than a few months since all the weight is on the heads. Eventually, it will start to slide down until it falls. You need something that will allow it to rely on horizontal support, distribute the weight to some brackets on the outer rim or inside behind the wheel.
19:41 "End of times, I think is going to be extremely boring! & I don't know if everybody realizes that... Modern life has made it so people aren't bored anymore. There's never any boredom." - Kevin
This is why I love @Modern Self Reliance
🥰 & my love for Bean!!! What a good dog!!🐶
Well you made quite the dug out for yourself. Looks nice down there. I like your light you put up. Amazes me how you come up with all these ideas. Does your wife ever wonder who she married. Thinking what Kevin up to today. O, he's digging a hole in the ground. Thanks for sharing Can't wait to see what you do next.
Man you are a wonderful person to watch. Seriously I don’t have to worry about the content if my grandson walks through. Thanks for being a professional.
Actually mentioned this to one of my buds with kids "This dude's extremely kid-friendly in terms of language, could even watch it with your kid!"
Sure, hotels might have showers, but I’m sure given enough time your hole will have one too.
It’ll be interesting to see what it’s like in Winter, especially since you seem to still have winters. Here in the UK it’d fill with rain.
I loved the comments made when you were trying to put the lights on the ceiling. “How’d you get squashed by a giant cylinder, Kev?” “ Oh, I don’t know”😂
I would love to see more digging down and outward and for you to keep expanding it. Also upgrades like a way to deal with water drainage (to deal with rain coming in).
This Is the Town Where People Live Underground - Coober Pedy
th-cam.com/video/ywBwXyF1UuI/w-d-xo.html
I read something from an american marine veteren , he said they would dig a hole a foot or more deep in a corner of the foxhole for drainage. something like that could help maybe
@@endurance8910 where do you think he's going to store his feces?
That’s pretty cool thing you got there, I would put a cedar floor in, it will help keep the bugs away and it will smell nice
Pine is anti rot as well 👀
As a 14yr old boy my friends and I made an 'underground' camp. We did minimal digging because we used a tree's root system where it had carved out a hollow when it blew over during the Oct 1987 storm in the UK.
I watch a lot of these shelter builds on youtube. I'm super happy to see someone finally think of ventilation. Lots of people digging holes and starting fires with nothing but a chimney. You need combustible air, yo.
Nooo...no dugout for you...let's take EVERYTHING underground :) I love it!! The one suggestion (and I've made the same to Chris) I have is get a basic ham radio license (here in the states, the level is Technician) and set up a radio in your place, with an antenna way way up in the trees! In a true SHTF scenario, amateur radio is going to be THE means of communication!
i hope that there a future plans to expand this spider hole into something more like an underground bunker, with dedicated rooms for sleeping, bathroom, supply storage, kitchen, that kinda stuff, it's be really interesting to see.
You forgot to mention he needs an armory too
books & cards help pass time... I just LOVE Bean... she is so awesome... I had 3 poodles ... My girls were my kids (before I had kids). You could get a few water bricks A a tub of freeze dried meals... you would be set...lol... thanks for the video
I love this project, I agree with all, totally keep going with this, now you’ve got fresh water so you can make it work. I would love to do this in my back yard and have a shtf bunker. Keep up the great videos,
So long as your crawl space is separate room from the rest of your space, you can dig a little trench moat to catch the rain fall in and just put some flat garden stones in the center to stand on to keep your feet dry, etc. Think like a toilet plumbing, derekuyu and Cappadocia, Turkey. They built the entranced to their underground towns to catch the water and recycle it for crops and air flow during the flood of moses or enoch or whatever...
So was rain water an issue? You didn't mention it in the morning. Very interesting thread. Just a beautiful job of construction.
I’ve been watching you since your first project. I’m blown away with how much you’ve built and how cool your property is.
Bucket Toilet:
2 Lids.
One is cut with a hole in the middle, and some padding added. Other is left normal. Swap the lids as needed ;)
id also suggest another tunnel off the entrance shaft for said bucket ;)
imagine you go exploring and then feel a wooden plank underneath your foot when you take a step. You move the brush and pine needles to find a trap door! you open the door and come across a spider hole. that would sure be cool!
Bean Rules !
And you're right, bored is just another word for not motivated, get busy living or suffer the alternative.
Thanks for feedback
Expect more videos soon
Contact the number above, i have something special for you^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^🎁
Kevin I agree end times will be difficult for some on several levels and letting things do for us is cool but its important to have skills to survive.
Hello Kev! Pretty cool bunker. Little bit claustrophobic watching you enter the dugout 😬. I love how you always manage to add your signature circular motif. Very clever and functional to boot. Keep those vids rolling!
I think it's a little dangerous to be under there for a long time. the bad air you breathe out is heavier than the good one so sooner or later the room will fill up. you need an active circulation system that pushes the bad air away and throws the good one in (the good one I think comes naturally from the ceiling boards so it doesn't need to be active). besides that I think it's really cool
Such an awesome idea!! Love it!! Keep on keeping on!! I’m so jealous!!! A person could learn so much from you!! So glad I found yours and Chris’s channels y’all are awesome!!!
For a bucket toilet with a bag, it's always best to have a bag of cat litter handy, scented preferably and a box of baking soda. Do your business, then cover it with a layer of litter and a sprinkling of baking soda. It definitely helps with the smell and don't let it get more than half full of offal and litter.
Had to go without reliable water for awhile and this was our method.
It appears you survived in a somewhat stylish manner! That's quite the hole you've dug yourself, as my mom always told me, but yours is cool. Great project to add on to, for future content I'm sure. Love what you're doing ❤️
When I saw how well you were setup., I thought that I'd much prefer spending a night in that hole over a night at t he hotel! I do not know if you have kids or nephews/nieces, but I'm ready to bet a coffee that they'd have a ball in there!!! Bravo !!!
Seeing that "beach sand" as you described it under neath a gravel layer usually mans that you have found the areas water table, nice find, thats easy fresh water for you.
That was amazing!!! I always wanted as a kid to have a fort underground! You definitely went the extra mile!! Great video as always Kevin!! Take care and stay safe my friend
You need a dirt vacuum system that sucks the dirt up and spits it out.
The idea came to me when I saw that infinite stairwell on the plateau of giza, egypt.
No matter how hard they try and dig this stairwell back up, the sand storms FILL IT BACK IN. XD
sand is much lighter than this mud you diggin in though, so you need a system that separates and dries the dirt as it moves it, just maybe?
Absolutely love this channel !!! My suggestion would be to add one of those shower rooms with the showers where you can put water in like a tank or something and take showers that way and a compost toilet
Thank you for posting these videos. I have enjoyed watching them. I wish that i had the ability to build one of these. I would love to surprise my father with one of these. Thanks again and enjoy.
22:59 That is an Italian coffee maker, also called "Moka". I love them. They make great coffee really fast. The lower chamber works kind of like a pressure cooker, which is why it has a valve to avoid explosion.
I would really enjoy having a bedroom underground where it would actually be quiet and dark at night which is what I need to sleep. It would also be cool on those long August nights when it's hot at 10:00 at night.
Yes! That would be ideal, quiet, dark and 60 degrees! I keep telling my husband we need to have underground rooms or a cave!
I would have put a tarp above the wood to deflect the water to the side.
I do think you could easily add a real mattress or bed to the place, there are fairly cheap bedrolls and stuff. (like I am currently sleeping on a $100 piece of foam and its worked well so far)
Okay Kevin, not gonna lie, I was wondering where you were and then I remembered the tunnel and said oh oh! It's looking rather cozy I must say and I especially loved the circle light! Great job! (Did miss Don...so say hi)
It's really cool. You did an amazing job. I always wanted to build something like this. I would really urge you to make a secondary escape route, though. Any unforseen event could happen and trap you in. From a tree falling over your entrance to some evil prankster sealing the entrance and ripping out your cell connection.
Your little dog was watching you take things into the hole and probably thinking - My human digs holes too! This is awesome! lol BTW, toilet tip: use cat litter. It clumps up on number 1 and 2, and it's scented so your place won't smell as bad.
as others have said it would be interesting if you kept expanding this spider hole so you can turn it into some sort of underground compound.
All right boys let's take in what we've learned and start our tunnel from Nova Scotia to the UK. Collin will be on the other side. In the year 2025 the tunnels will finally connect
Don't give him any ideas.
All the global TH-camr tunnelers should link up..like some crazy spiderweb
Really enjoyed this one 🙌. Had me cracking up when you were putting up the overhead lighting
This guy (me to btw) cant sit still and now digs a hole in his pre made hole. I literally love the way you made it!
This is one of the coolest projects I've seen. I hope you contine and build more rooms and build on to it.
I really like those Skillet Meals. They have lots of different ones.
Your series has definitely inspired me to build something like this if I get the property I am trying to. I was going to build several things, but definitely a spider hole project like this is high on the list now.
Wow, this is an amazing video, probably the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time. Great job
This project can't end yet, it should be big enough for Kev and at least 1 other person! So at least 1 other room, hopefully another bedroom and a bathroom
my favorite part was when you couldn't resist turning the "leaky water spout" back to it's proper position while talking about getting a new one.😂
Bean is such a a good girl. Waits as long as she can to do her business.
Fantastic! And so smart of you to bring your Canary, I mean Bean 🐾😊 very interested to know how it holds up to rain and winter! Is there a water source to MacGyver something from the dig? Great light💡more updates plz
I have been enjoying your channel for a long time. I’m glad I could accept the invite to come in your hole and talk about polish your rocks! Best channel on TH-cam!
Man , I have got to build me one of these. I love the whole concept of this.
Outstanding project. Great opportunity to think just like you did. Well done!
I’ve been here since the first video in the series, absolutely love this series, please continue.
I had to make a new TH-cam channel and haven't watched any videos in probably a year atleast, but I'm glad to see you haven't stopped and just keep outdoing yourself with every project.
Welcome back!
Dude you are so ambitious and I love it🙌🏾 It’s actually inspirational, man💯 Keep it up🤙🏾
wow what a great achievement spending a night in the spider hole and now able to drill a sand point well great job Kevin
Looking at you screwing a rake to get that huge spool up there was quite a treat !!!! Thanks for the video fellow Canadian ! dan from Montreal.
I love the way your mind works, Kevin. I totally agree we need to have boredom so our brains can create. This was fun!
"I don't know how waterproof this is..." I've been thinking about making an underground shelter with a large upside down aluminum Jon boat for a roof. It would be waterproof and already reinforced with ribs in the hull and rot-proof. Maybe a couple of super large deep freezers side by side, as a waterproof recessed floor for secure animal and bug-proof storage under the floor. They have waterproof scent-proof doors... that are load bearing in case of collapse
cool idea
@@HavNCDy no I don't think so 🤠
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing. 👍
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode! I think you should Airbnb this place! Just add a composting toilet!
Nice but, if you are building that as a "hidden" bunker, the cell signal will completely give it away. You should try taking your ham license and buy some radios that don't constantly give a signal.
Woah ! From a hole in the ground to a freekin mansion. Nice build! I need a thinking hole now.
I love a good video that has danger written all over it, nothing like living on the edge 👍🇺🇲
Once you get some 1 inch 1 and a 1/2 inch acrylic rod and stick it in the ground leave. Maybe 6 inches or so above the ground and that'll pipe some light down. Also, also, you should have some emergency switches and depending on the frequency. They know exactly where you might be under the ground if you do have a collapse. And you probably should bring some ox and thanks down there
I am just imagining some hikers coming by right as you pop your head up. The look on their face would be priceless.
Your vent needs a cap and screen to keep rain and animals out. I would have turned the hollow log on its side but drilled a hole to pull the vent through the bottom and screened it. Add living coverage, maybe brush around the ends, or a brush pile over it.
Love the light! Will it be too heavy for the ceiling plus the dirt?
Love what you did and do. I have a hard time waiting to see what you'll do next.
Love this series!
Poor doggo. That drill had to be so loud.
Excellent tip for homeowners to clear out work areas
i hope to see the spider hole expand and maybe get a few upgrades!! would be super cool!
You have accomplished one of my childhood and life long dreams, great work Kevin!
Outstanding project. Perhaps a trail cam hooked up to your system would let you know a little bit what's going on topside?
That sucks it got flooded all that work thanks for teaching us about digging a pond
Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks
Super cool build. If you spliced in extra cable could you run the cell booster up a tree for better reception? Perhaps your tree service buddy could help with that.
I'm not a hardcore prepper but I always figured having a bunch of physical media would be worth gold. And I'm sitting on 400-500 movies and shows on Blu-ray and DVD.
I'm thinking it's not complete until there is an underground, hot tub/ swimming pool fed from the underground well is complete. Might need pump to get rid of the dirty water but heck were in a drought so might as well grow some veggies with a good grow light down there to get rid of the grey water and prep for the 10,000 year wait after the above ground nuclear winter. That light is the real bomb though! Nice job. Bean is the very best dog an underground pre-prepper could ever need, What a cutie.
The coffee maker you used is a Moka-like coffee machine. The coffee it makes is not really an espresso but very similar. Also, from the size it seems like a three espresso cups machine. I'd advise against drinking all the coffe it makes in one sitting by yourself, as it is pretty concentrated.
Bean’s watching you real closely, probably so he can learn how to build his own we treat hole one day.
I asked a while back about that coffee cup!!!! and love the light!!!
Concerning DVD's: Many people, like myself, have put the DVD's on flash drives / external hard drives. I have so much stuff on hard disk that I never even watch. I have been doing this for a long time. You can always back them up on several for longevity.
Use a pool noodle to soften the top of bathroom bucket. Split length way fit over edge of bucket.
Your videos are my favorite Saturday morning routine. I can Soooo feel the PEACE OF MIND your creations bring, and your property is friggen OFF THE HOOK AWESOME. YOU BLESSED SON OF A @#$%&.
HEY BEAN.
