Check out the video above for one of the “higher end” models sold by Atlas. For example, they have a complex that holds 80 to 90 people. What’s interesting about the Atlas system is that multiple tubes can be connected together to make much bigger complexes. Finally, any exterior components, such as the lid of the escape tube and solar panels, are hidden and nearly impossible to see unless you know what you’re looking for. The tube, which has its own air filtration system and is powered by solar panels, protects the inhabitants from bomb blasts, and nuclear, chemical and biological disasters. It has one bedroom plus extra bunks, a washroom with a shower, and there is storage under the floor so you can store up to a year’s worth of food. The pipe is 32-by-10-feet and it can comfortably house three or four people. Atlas Survival Shelter’s Galvanized Corrugated Pipe bomb shelter starts at about $49,000. To start off, we thought we’d go with the working person’s luxury bomb shelter. Because there are so many ways humanity could end on any given day, some people have built, or are in the process of building, some amazing bunkers and fallout shelters. We could also be killed off by disease, environmental problems, and asteroids, just to name a few extinction level events.

It’s a nightmarish scenario, and just one way humanity could be doomed. Unlucky survivors would die slowly from radiation or in nuclear winter. If all out nuclear war happened, many places in the world could be wiped off the face of the Earth in the blasts.
