Former plumber Colin Furze (pictured), 36, says he has dreamt of having his own secret lair since he was a child. So he spent two months building the 16ft x 20ft man cave underneath the garden of his modest semi-detached house in Stamford, Lincolnshire

Looks like a lot of work just to avoid having to change a diaper.

Hope it’s watertight. I have my doubts.

If I had the money I would put in a bunker too, and not just for waiting out storms or the apocalypse.

Having spent a lot of time in an underground home I can tell you, they’re great in warm weather and sleeping if you like it dark.

An expecting father has ensured he will suffer no sleepless nights when his pregnant girlfriend gives birth

If he doesn't love and respect her enough to marry her, then it shouldn't surprise me that he won't actually step up and help her with the baby.

Hmmmmm... I see neither television nor wet bar.

Not my personal notion of “greatest.”

he’s a “former plumber”. Does that mean he is not employed now? Did he build it on the dole?

No.

Great man caves have big leather chairs, wood paneling on the wall, and lights with green shades on them. Also they smell like cigar smoke and the only thing you’re allowed to drink in one is whiskey and its children.

Nope..... Not to brag, but I have the greatest man cave ever :) One end is a recording studio with instruments (including guitars, drumset etc), the other is a theater room with ceiling mounted projector and 120” screen. Complete with under counter fridge, coffee maker, theater POPCORN popper, microwave, sink, and vast collection of music :) But the guy in the article is close.... maybe :)

No worries, Colin. We won’t tell anyone — but the whole world — that there is a secret trapdoor underneath the rugs.

Mum’s the word.

You’re secret is safe.

Be sure you have a lot of video DVDs, as the TV reception may be the pitts in the apocalypse.

If you are locked away in your bunker and you suddenly see a big hairy spider, can anyone on the outside hear your scream?

How does his girlfriend feel about him describing her pregnancy as “the coming apocalypse”?
