If you're even _thinking_ about building your own bunker underground, watch this first!! In this video, I'm sharing with you some of the major mistakes I made when I was building my underground bunker.
This DIY bunker is really cool if I do say so myself, and I wanted it to be perfect... but the truth is, I made some big mistakes that ultimately cost me a lot of money and time. I kind of schemed this build a bit by watching doomsday preppers here on YouTube. Even though I think it would definitely be valuable as a doomsday bunker, my main intention for this underground bunker was simply for it to be a tornado shelter for my family to feel safe in during bad weather.
This video is for anyone who is thinking about constructing an underground bunker – whether you're a beginner or an experienced builder. I'll share with you the mistakes I made so you can avoid them and build your bunker with confidence!
