Preparing for the worst by setting yourself up with only the best.
As CBS 2′s Maurice DuBois reported Thursday, luxurious kitchens, swimming pools, even gyms are being added to bunkers built just in case of an emergency.
Bomb shelters were a common site in backyards in the Cold War 1950s.
But as one bunker promotional video shows, today’s backyard survival bunker looks more like a five-star resort, equipped with everything from an indoor pool and state of the art movie theater, to a dog run and even an interactive classroom — all underground.
“The overall scope of the project was to create a wow experience for the homeowner. So that they could live here and enjoy the facility and not just survive,” said luxury bunker creator.
Survive whatever may come in comfort, whether it be a natural disaster or a future terror attack.
“It was part of the selling point. You want to make it as comfortable for the psychology,” said Ralph Henrich, who bought a bunker.
Henrich, of New Jersey, paid to reserve space in an underground luxury bunker for himself, his wife, and their three kids.
The cost was $50,000 per adult and $35,000 for children under the age of 16....

I would barely notice it for the first few months, except for the loss of the internet.
Your luxury bunker will do you no good if you’re alive during the Tribulation.
I remember back in the 70s National Lampoon had an article, “The Playboy Fallout Shelter”. What was satire then is reality now.
The shelters have enough food, fuel, etc to last one year.
Good Lord.......
“Complete with a dog run.”
A Boy and His Dog, underground. Hmmm. Now where have I read about that before?
What’s he going to do with the cars in an apocalyptic world and he doesn’t have access to gasoline?
In the event that he really needs it, Henrich is going to show up to the bunker and discover that the people tasked with letting his family in have already filled it with their own families, and Henrich will be wondering where to lodge his complaint.
Then what? If you are the type that needs a luxury shelter most likely you would not be able to survive long away from that type of life.
I’m not much on underground bunkers, however I do hope to close on a nice homestead in rural TN next week from which I can wave at the armored vehicles as they travel between major population centers.
Do you know how stupid that statement is?
Or do you assume that all wealthy people inherited their wealth? Or that once you've tasted caviar, you would never lower yourself to eat a hot dog?
Your class envy is showing, how very unFR of you.
Myself, if I could afford such a level of secure protection for my family, I damned sure would, or something similar.
I can survive just fine without all the luxury. No issues with the rich but most of these clowns have no idea how to survive.
Not a whisper of the Achiles heels of the entire enterprise.
Assured supply of water and oxygen. Ventilation; waste disposal. Power for lighting and temperature control.
Automatic machine guns?
I was also thinking, as I was typing it, that watching movies under this condition could put you at risk of being detected or it could interfere with your ability to hear any possible intruders.
“Cyberbunker”, the clandestine web hosting company, has enough fuel to run their datacenter for 10 years if authorities shut power. An entire level of the bunker is fuel tanks. They host any website and nobody has been able to break in to serve a court order. Even SWAT attempted to get in with no luck.
I am not a lawyer nor an LEO.
But I have been around a long time and there are a few things I know.
First, the cops do not have to gain entry to serve a warrant or summons.
All they have to do is encounter the person on whom it is to be served in a situation where they can serve it.
That is usually very easy. The officers of that company are not going to stay in the cave for 10 years.
Also, unless the crime is a serious felony crime involving danger to the accused or others such as murder, suicide, etc., a summons by both registered and certified mail is legal in most jurisdictions.
So I am surprised at the statement that no one has been able to break in to serve a court order, since breaking in is not required.
