You know, other survivors might actually be the bigger issue. In most zombie lore I've read, zombies sort of fade into the background as one more dangerous thing in the world. They are predictable and hence manageable. They can be deceived, tripped up, captured and dealt with. They have a single motivation, and that is to feed. They make no plans. Most of them, at least. People, on the other hand, make plans, and that makes them infinitely more dangerous. And people able to survive the first period of an outbreak will no doubt be more ferocious, more aggressive, tenacious and straight up more dangerous than 90% of the ones that ended up as walking dead. The zombie outbreaks distills the badassery of human kind to 90% proof.
The first house is actually a brilliant idea for seasonal homes, although with a bit less concrete and steel, it’s sort of storm shutters on steroids. If you build a home/cabin in a largely vacation community, that will sit empty most of the year, a feature like this would be great. Think about it, at the end of the season, you shut everything down than turn a key and watch as concrete slabs cover all the windows and doors, thus protecting them not only from intruders but also from Mother Nature. Maybe include a solar panel powered ventilator on the roof to move a small, but constant amount of air through the structure to keep it from getting stale and the odor soaking into the fabrics used around the house. The reason I saw have that solar powered is firstly it wouldn’t be needed during the winter, at least in northern climates, but also because that would allow you to completely shutdown the power to the home, while a panel or small array would provide plenty of power to move some air when it’s sunny out, and your only electrical concern could be isolated on the roof, and made in such a way that even if the entire circuit fried and melted it wouldn’t catch the main structure on fire.
The tiny house on the island was built and owned by a sheep farmer and his wife a long time ago (60s-70s I think), it has electricity via generator too. Bjork does own it but I can't speak to whether or not she lives there. I got to visit the island when I went to Iceland a few years ago, we were able to look at the house from a short distance but couldn't go inside or get too close.
It's still smarter than all the people putting tremendous amounts of thought into a "bugout bag"... and spending money building a "bugout vehicle"... and yet, have given zero consideration to "where they will 'bugout' to".
A little off the topic but you hear a lot of folks say "I'll just go to the woods to hide out and live off the land". Those woods are going to be mighty crowded and there isn't enough game to support all those people. It would take at least one growing season if you plant crops and then you you're dependent on the weather. "Bug out bags" and "bugout vehicles" are only good for getting you home from work. The ideal situation (besides not needing it) is to fortify your home. Stock up on food, have large containers of water, have a way to purify water and have solar/wind generators and industrial batteries. Your home also has to be secure, because if you have it, and others don't they'll try to take it eventually. In about 90 days, things will have shaken out. If you're lucky, you'll have some neighbors who are like minded and you can work together. Strength in numbers.
I'd make a house on Alcatraz Island. Plenty of space to farm, great strong structure, multiple ways to escape by boat or helicopter, can fish right from home, have guard towers to pick off whatever zombie may have gotten onto the island which is very doubtful. Seems like the perfect spot.
Anyone who can afford to build a house like the one in #15, will have also considered the food supply situation. And yes… I would still want to survive, no matter the apocalyptic situation that might occur. Of course, that’s just me…and as long as I have my dog for company, I’m cool with no people being around. Much less drama that way. 😊
2:17 is Keilder water valve tower, which sits in a man made reservoir (Keilder Water) so there are no sea views and it certainly wasn't built by any conspiracy nut! It was built in the 1970's, I abseiled the inside of it in 1995.
4:40 Bjork's music can be described in many more words, like other worldly, experimental, and complex. She also has an extraordinary, unique singing style. Her swan dress is wonderful! I can see other people think so too.
I feel awkward when the narrator mispronounces more words than I do. And has so many errors in the script. This was a great idea but you need to have someone proofread your content and check the pronounciations before releasing the episode.
Anything that's on its own island sounds good to me. Personally, I've been thinking about zombie defense ever since I saw the 'Night of the Living Dead' remake as a kid in the '90s. ✌❤
Some people referred to other humans in an end of the world scenario “zombies” because you’ll have to consider everyone hostile if you want to live very long.
ever since I saw pictures of the Bjork islands before they even had that name, I thought of how to self sustain them. islands like that truly are the best potential long term homes. Needs a LOT of work to get it there tho. 1: underground storage, lots of it. storing seeds, solar panels/batteries, general repair equipment for electronic/plumbing needs. food preservation area. animal husbandry equipment, and agricultural equipment of course a small armory and fishing gear. green house equipment for year round agriculture needs as well as planting things that normally wouldn't grow there. 2: stock island with fruit trees and basic livestock for sustained food sources and all nutritional needs. 3: books and entertainment area preferably built underground 4: lower the living quarters underground. by the looks of the island you could have 3-4 stories underground before hitting the water table even at high tide. 5: someone wealthy enough could even build the James Bond villains type of secret entrance for boats to get on and off the island.
Where do you get your information from? The structure at 2:24 is actually a VALVE TOWER for a reservoir and dam in Northern England. It is not a zombie proof house built by some millionaire. It was built by Northumberland Water in the early 1980s. It does not have sea views as it is at least 30 miles from the sea. You need to get yourself a new researcher.
Live in a underground coal mine. Hydropnics grows the food. buried iso tank containers hold the spring water thru a triple distiller into a "clean" iso tank. With a couple iso tanks in basement for sewage. Falcons with go pros for survalence. Couple of Nat gas wells for fuel.
The house on the island can be hooked up with utilities: solar for electric, rain collection for water, compost for solid waste, liquid waste used for crops.
The hobbit house looks cool but I’d feel a lil crazy and claustrophobic being underground completely with no real sunlight or windows or fresh air I’d prol end up freaking out and looking at a fake outdoor scenery painted on the wall all the time would just make me feel worse lol
4:56 That's a puffin hunting lodge, though you did get the island right. Bjork also was in the negotiation to buy an island of the same name, but dropped out.
The home thought to be bjorks is not. Its an old fishing cabin owned by a private family. It was supposed to be a fishing/hunting island and port. But never happened
Id want to live in the seed vault. I have always wanted all the best foods plants from around the world in one garden with the best fish, game and farm animal varieties. Save trees of value too and then let people see it as a tour of what is worth saving in our world. Though I would say if I had to live in an apartment complex again having one made from scrubbing concrete that purified the air and hand edible landscaping and an internal fishery would be an easy sell too.
Bjorks house is the best one. Secluded, tall enough that storms and rising seas wont effect it and would prevent others trying to escape from getting to it, has plenty of land to raise animals and have crops, Can build rain water collection and install solar panels and youd have everything you need. You could even just hang out outside and enjoy the weather when its nice.
I like the abandoned military box homes in the middle of the ocean.Reinforce.Renovate the last 3 good ones. Solar panels. Make one of the boxes the a green house/garden, solar panels, water processing center, so you're self sustaining.
Quick question, for number 15; if they had no electricity, how they gonna get out of the house? Judging from the looks, looks like it’s all connected to a power source that controls when he opens them and closes the walls
The seed vault is great temporarily and to get seeds but unless you have renewable power and grow lights you aren't growing much if you stay there. The skyscraper with trees isn't keeping zombies out unless you need to climb to access the building. The zombies will enter the same way that humans enter any high rise...
I'd either want the vertical forest because it is purpose-built to allow for agriculture--ie. a steady food source--or the maunsell forts after a major restoration project because their design and location doubles their inaccessibility, plus there's the opportunity to convert specific buildings to specific needs, including a survivalist garden.
The vertical forest would be a shriveled waste after electricity/water became in short supply. The forts would be about 120' below water level if the land ice melted.
I just saw a terrible idea the green waste management and maintenance 10 stories high fall constantly having windows grown over big problem with security anyone who can climb a tree can be at your window this idea will fail
Don't underestimate plant roots. They even eat away through bricks and concrete over time and will break through roofs and such, and they will breed insects and other creatures that find shelters in trees, so this vertical garden plan is honestly unfeasible in the long term. Unless you're fully enshrouded in an equally tall and wide glass structure that functions as a green house, your wide open vertical garden apartment will only invite more tenants than just yourself.
@@MichaelsGuns I didn't catch which way they opened, inwards or outwards. If inwards, then perhaps there is the possibility of a mussel-powered mechanical mechanism that would open a several-ton door. If outwards, then debris could prevent that. Either way, "sure" is not a term I'd use. But perhaps.
As for Bjork’s house on the little green island, perhaps the real abode is built underneath the tiny dwelling that sits on the hillside, with no electricity, nor running water.
@@chriscowey7464 this guy copied someone elses video 10 zombie proof houses. in one of the homes he is showing the interior of an entirely different house!
Yep that is Kielder. I go up it twice a year. There is only two rooms The lift motor room & the stop log crane room. I did however actually say it would be the perfect zombie getaway. You drive under the dam to it. It looks like something out of battlestar gallactica when you drive through the tunnel. The height is about 52 meters from base of tunnel to the top room.
got anymore info or links on tony zhangzhou's home? i would like to read more about it. IMO, human forest would've been better if it grew vegetables and edibles instead of trees.
This doesnt make sense...remember in land of the dead when the zombies walked into the water and came up on the other side to attack and eat the ones in the rich condos...well i guess nothings perfect.
Exactly...now they think we are going to become zombies if we get the shot...another concept from the corona dead...just another crappy movie by independent producers...go figure.
For that matter,not even a movie...just scenes from some of the worse rip off zombie apocalypse films out there...just another hype to confuse the masses.
I actually watched a UA-cam vid about Bjork's house where a guy sailed to the island to check it out. The dude that lives there showed him around. The guy also nearly fell off the cliff when he was climbing up it. Beautiful, but scary.
The "urban vertical forest". I like the common sense idea. I just hope they follow through and make sure the buildings can handle the additional weight of so many plants, trees and tons of wet/damp soil. Italy is prone to earthquakes, especially near its volcanos. I'd hate for it to just be more death raining down.
Milan is a fairly safe city from an earthquake point of view, it is located in the middle of the Po Valley whose subsoil is sandy / clayey, this type of soil softens and absorbs earthquakes, and their propagation waves . As for volcanoes, the closest active volcano is located in Naples at about 800 km. (500 miles) far away.
Thinking that a urban "forest" could sustain you is stupid, most crops yield once or twice a year an that balcony garden is not going to feed you trough the year.
@@HakkaDakka I don't think the idea is total self-sufficiency, but being able to take on a a lot of their own needs to lower the cost of living there. It's going to be an expensive place to live unless they produce a lot of their own food. Free fruits, nuts and veggies can ease a budget quite a bit.
When most people say zombies they are talking about unprepared people when SHTF starving sick and possibly injuried fighting for their lives zombies will look like a joke compared to people whom see their children starving
The house of „bjork“ is actually a house for bird scientists. And there are 2 houses on that island. Besides that it has running water and everything you need to life.
Anyone that grew up during the cold war and especially the dark days of the Cuban missile crisis (or isn't completely ignorant of history) understands the reason for house #6.
I love that last one... number 1. it's not really that expensive considering the housing market today. It looks rural, so can grow food after the zombies are gone.. LOL..
Not really because most are not self sustainable (creates it's own food, energy, water, climate). Most of these Houses would be SOL in a power outage or without a mode of transportation. They turn into coffins. Money doesn't do much in cyber, biological or energy attack. Zombies would be easier.
If you have ever run across any Methhead, You would believe in Zombies too. My son was a hair's breath away from picking up a machete during one of his meth trips and going on a killing spree. The paranoia is terrifying with Meth, and anything could set someone off on a bad trip and if they have access to things like machete's or guns, ya, it could happen. More often though. They just can't seem to make any sense of what they are doing. To them it makes perfect sense, but, to the outside view, it is not apparent
Is it just me or is it because of todays housing market that the costs of these places are way too cheap. I've seen basic two story houses go for $1.9-$2.5mill and not be in some crazy city.
I love the Adirondack house. THAT is pretty close to my dream home. The NIKE battery is dead on as well. Now all I need to do is move the two together someplace...
This narrator officially broke me at 12:53 when he called the seed vault with seeds for over 930,000 varieties of edible crops “over 13,000 [maybe square feet since he didn’t complete the thought/statement] of architectural history” instead of AGRICULTURAL history.
In a zombie apocalypse, I would be more concerned with survivors trying to break into my house, rather than zombies. A satchel charge on one of those thin concrete walls and they're in. Very poor designs.
I feel like MOST zombie-proof houses are missing two essential-for-survival aspects: One is a solar grid. These houses that lockdown are awesome, but they're essentially ovens with no air circulation. Solar panels or a solar grid are vital. Then there's the absolute need for a MASSIVE propane tank.
Well, food is the most crucial thing in the apocalyptic events. Without food, there will be a fight between inhabitants even in the most secured bunkers or shelters, especially when during drought or summer season which some crops almost impossible to grow. Also, any place which devoid of vegetation.
From an engineering perspective (it's a curse being one sometimes) What are you going to do about the root growth through the walls and structure once those trees get a certain size? You can't dig them up, trim the roots and replant. Nice concept but the amount of problems this will cause idk is sustainable. Time will tell.
The house on the island if i remember correctly was built from some group for the artist bjork? its built on a puffin or some time of birds sanctuary type thing. They turned it down cause of where it was and other this. Now its used by researchers when they stay on the island.
the problem with the seed vault, is it continuously has to be refilled with seeds. seeds don't just last forever. they go bad just like everything else. not to mention they take a while to grow and its located in a place inhospitable for most plant growth. the vault isn't meant as a shelter for people. its meant as an archive of sorts that as doubles as a way to keep edible plant species from dying out.
I seen a bunch or zombies over the summer.. a mostly peaceful protest. The ones in Portland were most disturbing, the purple and blue hair with all those hooks in their face looking like the hell raiser
I saw a bunch of zombies that were not peaceful. It was back on January 6th. They stormed the Capital, while killing a few officers. Luckily, chamber security forces kept them at bay.
@@MrJedi5150 I think it's you that need to get your facts straight because it seems that you're a little bit butt hurt at my statement. Don't give me that garbage about him dying of a condition afterwards. What brought on his condition? You already know what it was. If you can stand here and say that it was not an insurrection and that they were responsible for the deaths of police officers, then you are everything that is wrong with America. They all deserve to get the Ashley treatment in my opinion. I'm an Air Force veteran as well. She decided to participate in buffoonery and treason. She DESERVED that shot in the head. It amazes me how people like you try to make excuses for killing capital police officers and then want us to feel sorry for a TRAITOR who decided to turn ON her government. Maybe I need to become capital police and uphold what we cherish the most in this country. I guarantee you wouldn't be storming that building on my watch.
I'm a sailor and been out on boats for weeks at a time. On a boat, you are very limited as far as supplies and everything breaks on boats. You are really tied to the next port for parts to repair what broke on the last passage. That plus in a SHTF situation, every other boat will be short on supplies and looking to pirate other boats so be ready to defend. Long term, it's not viable but for 3-6 weeks it might be fine if the turmoil settles in that time. Get way offshore, turn off your AIS, take down your radar reflector and hope all the power boats burn up all their fuel.
Imagine thinking your about to survive the apocalypse only for something to go extremely wrong, now your locked in & stranded in your own creation 🤦🏾♀️
Hands up who’s home has been invaded by a zombie. Hands up who’s home has been invaded by a burglar (human) ? So there’s an obvious answer as to what kind of security you spend your hard earned on.
The Adirondoack House could be the Home of the first Warpship and i think i would love to live in one of these Army Forts , after i stabilized it with ne Concrete and Metal. Didn`t somebody use the Underground Hideout in Vegas for filming "The Blast from the Past" with Brendan Fraser? But WHY do these "Forest"-Towers "need" a "Window-Cleaner"-Elevatorcrane like normal Glas-Covered Buildings ???
Is that because it depends on electricity which then would not be avaliable in post apocalyptic era because all power plants would shut down and probably leak radiation
Bjorks house is am attenpyed at a settlement by a few families that didn't work out and is now a privately owned puffin hunting cabin and vacation house owned by the same few families. Totally false on this guys account.

I'd either want the vertical forest because it is purpose-built to allow for agriculture--ie. a steady food source--or the maunsell forts after a major restoration project because their design and location doubles their inaccessibility, plus there's the opportunity to convert specific buildings to specific needs, including a survivalist garden.
The vertical forest would be a shriveled waste after electricity/water became in short supply.
The forts would be about 120' below water level if the land ice melted.
I just saw a terrible idea the green waste management and maintenance 10 stories high fall constantly having windows grown over big problem with security anyone who can climb a tree can be at your window this idea will fail
Don't underestimate plant roots. They even eat away through bricks and concrete over time and will break through roofs and such, and they will breed insects and other creatures that find shelters in trees, so this vertical garden plan is honestly unfeasible in the long term. Unless you're fully enshrouded in an equally tall and wide glass structure that functions as a green house, your wide open vertical garden apartment will only invite more tenants than just yourself.
I think that the houses with electronically controlled concrete slabs closing on windows and doors can easily become a trap itself. :D
Yup. Without power the technical term would be "mausoleum".
@@drususmaior1641 Im sure they can be opened and closed with mechanical gears.
@@MichaelsGuns I didn't catch which way they opened, inwards or outwards. If inwards, then perhaps there is the possibility of a mussel-powered mechanical mechanism that would open a several-ton door. If outwards, then debris could prevent that.
Either way, "sure" is not a term I'd use. But perhaps.
As for Bjork’s house on the little green island, perhaps the real abode is built underneath the tiny dwelling that sits on the hillside, with no electricity, nor running water.
Hahaha, looks like the narrator just doesn't care about the pronunciations
You don't change your accent to say things. Why should english people?
All the narrator cares about is subscription money, hence the crappy content
Thats not a house, its the overspill tower at Keider Water Reservoir in Northumberland, England!
I was just about to post this, its not a house at all. Kind of makes you wonder what other parts of the video are totally made up.
@@chriscowey7464 this guy copied someone elses video 10 zombie proof houses. in one of the homes he is showing the interior of an entirely different house!
Yep that is Kielder. I go up it twice a year. There is only two rooms The lift motor room & the stop log crane room. I did however actually say it would be the perfect zombie getaway. You drive under the dam to it. It looks like something out of battlestar gallactica when you drive through the tunnel. The height is about 52 meters from base of tunnel to the top room.
Great Video!
got anymore info or links on tony zhangzhou's home? i would like to read more about it. IMO, human forest would've been better if it grew vegetables and edibles instead of trees.
This doesnt make sense...remember in land of the dead when the zombies walked into the water and came up on the other side to attack and eat the ones in the rich condos...well i guess nothings perfect.
Exactly...now they think we are going to become zombies if we get the shot...another concept from the corona dead...just another crappy movie by independent producers...go figure.
For that matter,not even a movie...just scenes from some of the worse rip off zombie apocalypse films out there...just another hype to confuse the masses.
I see three times where images form various houses by the same architect are shown like they're the same, single place.
I actually watched a UA-cam vid about Bjork's house where a guy sailed to the island to check it out. The dude that lives there showed him around. The guy also nearly fell off the cliff when he was climbing up it. Beautiful, but scary.
“When the dead rises”?? I didn’t think rise was plural.
Right!
The "urban vertical forest". I like the common sense idea. I just hope they follow through and make sure the buildings can handle the additional weight of so many plants, trees and tons of wet/damp soil. Italy is prone to earthquakes, especially near its volcanos. I'd hate for it to just be more death raining down.
Milan is a fairly safe city from an earthquake point of view, it is located in the middle of the Po Valley whose subsoil is sandy / clayey, this type of soil softens and absorbs earthquakes, and their propagation waves . As for volcanoes, the closest active volcano is located in Naples at about 800 km. (500 miles) far away.
Thinking that a urban "forest" could sustain you is stupid, most crops yield once or twice a year an that balcony garden is not going to feed you trough the year.
@@HakkaDakka I don't think the idea is total self-sufficiency, but being able to take on a a lot of their own needs to lower the cost of living there. It's going to be an expensive place to live unless they produce a lot of their own food. Free fruits, nuts and veggies can ease a budget quite a bit.
2:20 that looks like Kielder reservoir valve tower in Hexham uk
There is a much greater chance of getting harmed by other humans than zombies
When most people say zombies they are talking about unprepared people when SHTF starving sick and possibly injuried fighting for their lives zombies will look like a joke compared to people whom see their children starving
The house of „bjork“ is actually a house for bird scientists. And there are 2 houses on that island. Besides that it has running water and everything you need to life.
Anyone that grew up during the cold war and especially the dark days of the Cuban missile crisis (or isn't completely ignorant of history) understands the reason for house #6.
They also understand that "Nike" is pronounced "Nikey", rather than the way it's spelled...
The river Thames is pronounced 'Temms' not 'Th-aims'...
I love the way he pronounces Thames, never heard that!
"When Excrement hits the room cooling device" alright I'm using that in the future when I want to say "when shit hits the fan" properly.
*Vault-Tec: Pfft... hold my Pipboy.*
haha shit...hahaha the comment was better than the video.. xD
Zombie proof but are they people proof, the real problem.
Yes - it will be locked while they are away and we can not get into it
Turrets are optional.
Urban vertical forests are so cool looking. wonder why they are not already everywhere
I love that last one... number 1. it's not really that expensive considering the housing market today. It looks rural, so can grow food after the zombies are gone.. LOL..
Post covid19 these homes make perfect sense.
Yep
Not really because most are not self sustainable (creates it's own food, energy, water, climate). Most of these Houses would be SOL in a power outage or without a mode of transportation. They turn into coffins. Money doesn't do much in cyber, biological or energy attack. Zombies would be easier.
This was awesome!!! I had not been so entertained with knowledge and laughter. Thank you!!!
I think its cool.Imagination begins in the humanhead.
If you have ever run across any Methhead, You would believe in Zombies too. My son was a hair's breath away from picking up a machete during one of his meth trips and going on a killing spree. The paranoia is terrifying with Meth, and anything could set someone off on a bad trip and if they have access to things like machete's or guns, ya, it could happen. More often though. They just can't seem to make any sense of what they are doing. To them it makes perfect sense, but, to the outside view, it is not apparent
That underground house in Vegas is listed for $18 million now!
They need to rename this video to " The Hobbies of people with more money than brains"......
These r sick!
Is it just me or is it because of todays housing market that the costs of these places are way too cheap. I've seen basic two story houses go for $1.9-$2.5mill and not be in some crazy city.
The Vegas house reminds me of the film Blast from the past with Christopher Walken and Brendan Fraser.
How can I regret not seeing something that I haven't seen?
I think it's weird and creepy when you threaten everyone for not liking or subscribing to the show ...
" Slenderman, spiders " really dude !?!?
I love the Adirondack house. THAT is pretty close to my dream home. The NIKE battery is dead on as well. Now all I need to do is move the two together someplace...
This narrator officially broke me at 12:53 when he called the seed vault with seeds for over 930,000 varieties of edible crops “over 13,000 [maybe square feet since he didn’t complete the thought/statement] of architectural history” instead of AGRICULTURAL history.
I believe it is the Pascal family that was commissioned to collect seeds.
So most of these were not houses or zombie apocalypse approved. SMH
cool houses, better than the sarcastic narrator
Glad to see vertical forests of Milano at top places in this context
the golden rule with prepping is dont let anyone know your doing it. if i knew someone that had supplies id just force them to share with me
In a zombie apocalypse, I would be more concerned with survivors trying to break into my house, rather than zombies. A satchel charge on one of those thin concrete walls and they're in. Very poor designs.
Pretty sure most of these weren't built with Zombies or people in mind.
#3 had few images of 3 completely different homes!
I feel like MOST zombie-proof houses are missing two essential-for-survival aspects: One is a solar grid. These houses that lockdown are awesome, but they're essentially ovens with no air circulation. Solar panels or a solar grid are vital. Then there's the absolute need for a MASSIVE propane tank.
except the propane tank would eventually deplete.
@@companyoflosers Yeah, but better to have it than not to.
I was a bit surprised that the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station wasn't on the list!
Well, food is the most crucial thing in the apocalyptic events. Without food, there will be a fight between inhabitants even in the most secured bunkers or shelters, especially when during drought or summer season which some crops almost impossible to grow. Also, any place which devoid of vegetation.
You only need your own safe-room. Then you can eat the others as they drop. For a while anyway.
Savage and desperate humans would definitely start a CANIBAL party.

we need this soon
There's a high school north of where I live that's built down in an old missile silo. Only a couple small structures above ground.
Survival experts have looked at some of these "crazy" people and found that they are prepared just about any kind of emergency situation
#2, the tree apartment building. I imagine the residents probably have an issue with spiders getting in their houses at an alarming rate.
I love the eskimo pod house! Cool.
From an engineering perspective (it's a curse being one sometimes) What are you going to do about the root growth through the walls and structure once those trees get a certain size? You can't dig them up, trim the roots and replant. Nice concept but the amount of problems this will cause idk is sustainable. Time will tell.
The house on the island if i remember correctly was built from some group for the artist bjork? its built on a puffin or some time of birds sanctuary type thing. They turned it down cause of where it was and other this. Now its used by researchers when they stay on the island.
the problem with the seed vault, is it continuously has to be refilled with seeds. seeds don't just last forever. they go bad just like everything else. not to mention they take a while to grow and its located in a place inhospitable for most plant growth. the vault isn't meant as a shelter for people. its meant as an archive of sorts that as doubles as a way to keep edible plant species from dying out.
I seen a bunch or zombies over the summer.. a mostly peaceful protest. The ones in Portland were most disturbing, the purple and blue hair with all those hooks in their face looking like the hell raiser
I saw a bunch of zombies that were not peaceful. It was back on January 6th. They stormed the Capital, while killing a few officers. Luckily, chamber security forces kept them at bay.
@@MrJedi5150 I think it's you that need to get your facts straight because it seems that you're a little bit butt hurt at my statement. Don't give me that garbage about him dying of a condition afterwards. What brought on his condition? You already know what it was. If you can stand here and say that it was not an insurrection and that they were responsible for the deaths of police officers, then you are everything that is wrong with America. They all deserve to get the Ashley treatment in my opinion. I'm an Air Force veteran as well. She decided to participate in buffoonery and treason. She DESERVED that shot in the head. It amazes me how people like you try to make excuses for killing capital police officers and then want us to feel sorry for a TRAITOR who decided to turn ON her government. Maybe I need to become capital police and uphold what we cherish the most in this country. I guarantee you wouldn't be storming that building on my watch.
How about a sailing ship? It would be a mobile home that is very hard to reach for anyone that does not have a boat or can't swim at inhuman speeds.
I'm a sailor and been out on boats for weeks at a time. On a boat, you are very limited as far as supplies and everything breaks on boats. You are really tied to the next port for parts to repair what broke on the last passage. That plus in a SHTF situation, every other boat will be short on supplies and looking to pirate other boats so be ready to defend.
Long term, it's not viable but for 3-6 weeks it might be fine if the turmoil settles in that time. Get way offshore, turn off your AIS, take down your radar reflector and hope all the power boats burn up all their fuel.
Ok, so in short, not a good idea.
Love the Dr who reference.
Haha the narration really puts this video over the top! Great job!
Imagine thinking your about to survive the apocalypse only for something to go extremely wrong, now your locked in & stranded in your own creation 🤦🏾♀️
I was thinking the same thing!!!
Hands up who’s home has been invaded by a zombie.
Hands up who’s home has been invaded by a burglar (human) ?
So there’s an obvious answer as to what kind of security you spend your hard earned on.
I really like missile silo house. I'd live there.
The Adirondoack House could be the Home of the first Warpship
and i think i would love to live in one of these Army Forts , after i stabilized it with ne Concrete and Metal.
Didn`t somebody use the Underground Hideout in Vegas for filming "The Blast from the Past" with Brendan Fraser?
But WHY do these "Forest"-Towers "need" a "Window-Cleaner"-Elevatorcrane like normal Glas-Covered Buildings ???
I think people forget the real thing to worry about if there is a zombie outbreak is who’s going to run the power plants?
first house....the roll down steel door is a serious weak spot..
Is that because it depends on electricity which then would not be avaliable in post apocalyptic era because all power plants would shut down and probably leak radiation
@@pianoman1379 no generator would fix that.i mean that door could easily be forced then theres only glass to get through.
Bjorks house is am attenpyed at a settlement by a few families that didn't work out and is now a privately owned puffin hunting cabin and vacation house owned by the same few families. Totally false on this guys account.
Puffin hunting! Now that sounds very dangerous , count me out
#3 Quadrant House is mixed into Designer Brian Fosters house in Palm Springs
That island resort looking One would be my pick. What a beautiful place to hide from the scary world!
