This. He is Swedish and bought a real bunker with ventilation systems, death bridges and enough space to drive ATVs. He is restoring it. Some claim he is a poker millionaire. Nobody knows.

Some bomb shelters have that as a requirement.

Except it's in the form of easily breakable wall (bricks) and some ground that you can easily dig through (gravel) with tools you have inside the bunker. Basically, dig an escape tunnel and fill it with gravel.

From outside it will be completely camouflaged etc. if anything grows on the gravel...or if the gravel is covered by normal dirt, whichever you like more.

This is a very large facility, it has numerous entrances from human to truck sized doors. Each "cavity" in the bunker always have at least two ways of exit, in case of fire, enemies, etc. And if I'm missing a path inside, I get the concrete chainsaw and make one.

All my entrances are fortified, built to withstand a direct 2.4mt hit and blast wave/radiation/debris. So nothing you break easily.

Can only speak for my facility which is not at the foot of the mountain. Most of the pumping is done downhill (especially sewage). The ventilation is quite inexpensive, large fans that run on low wattage for high efficiency air volume, got my own built dehumidification system (went from army's 70kw down to ~2kw).

As for flood control, about 1000 gallons per day through various rock fissures that goes to one of the three pump stations, which a normal sump pump can handle. However, if one fails you get;

Tho I've installed a main french drain system that runs throughout, so it can't really flood now. Getting control of water management took me almost three months, two months just spending pumping water around various places.

I do get "military tourists" and urban explorers, which I take on a small tour around the complex at the best of my ability. People appreciate it and I get to have my fence not cut in pieces.

Well, as it was a military base which was active for ~50 years it of course had utility lines. The transformer is for around 2MW, dual fed in a ring from two power substations. But at the moment I just have a small civilian transformer running, so the bill is no more than for a larger house, roughly. It's out in nowhere, as it was a secret installation, the military didn't want anyone to snoop around. The people who worked at it did not know themselves where it was as the buses that drove personnel in had no windows and took different routes to throw off pursuers or anyone trying to count turns. The farms that are along the route were taught and drilled by army intelligence to report any activity outside the norm (especially black cars for some reason).

Or to see how good you are at bullshitting. I went to a required class three times in a semester, instead I stayed home and fed my alcoholism. I told the prof that the re-tarring of the roof gave me severe migraines. He was very understanding and emailed me all of my homework. Thug life.

I do also love the GPA system. People get mad when they don't get an A. An A is supposed to be well above average. I remember I had a couple profs who actually did it the right way and they had so many students drop their classes and bitch and accuse them of favoritism and racism.

Exactly what it is. With $15K, I could just place a down payment on a house, and work towards the mortgage payments with a 5/1 ARM mortgage plan. Hell, if I wanted to feel "productive", I'd apply to work at a factory near by, or at least withina few miles away.

Not to mention they prefer hiring full time to avoid as much employee cycles within all the day shifts.

Bunkers are for when you're important enough to be directly targetted. They're much harder to build.

What sort of background and technical skill does bunkeranon have? What does one need to know in order to construct, renovate, or run a bunker? Or a castle/fort?

A friend of my family owns a valley out innawoods and this spring he plans to begin construction of an off-the-grid little village for his family and friends, completely energy and food independent, perhaps selling electricity from its wind farm and food from its gardens and greenhouses for a net profit on which to afford the materials they need to sustain themselves long-term, like spare parts, and university educations for the kids.
