I'm Building a Backyard BUNKER Part 1 - THE BIG TUBE

You need to watch Collin Furze, who built a custom bunker. Crazy insanely good video, its 2.5 hours long, but one of the most entertaining videos I ever watched. I'm sure he's got some ideas you could use for your bunker.

Oh, all-in on this project. Already wondering if I can get a 5000 SF warehouse underground in my back yard since I can't find one close to me.

This is going to be an amazing project! I want a sleepover pls.

Make sure that there is enough soil above the tubes so that your grass does not die at the slightest dry spell.

I have watched Colin Furze build a Bunker, I Can't wait to watch your Bunker build. This is going to be epic.

Will the bunker scratch at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7?

This is the content I still come to YouTube for. Drainage, outside and inside the structure is paramount. Airflow and humidity control as well.

Can’t get enough of underground building content, so glad that you and Colin Furze have those going on so I won’t run out for a while 👌🏼

It feels like yesterday when you planted those fruit trees! Very excited to see how this project comes along.

Water infiltration is your biggest enemy, be sure you are bedding, draining, and sealing properly. I’m enjoying all your content, have a great day!

The main thing that I would do differently here is to add in a second subfloor along with strategically located access hatches to make a huge underfloor storage area. Having that large storage area means that in the event that you do actually want to use this bunker as a long term shelter then you can store a lot of food and other supplies in there while still maximising the available living space for the inhabitants (very important for the longterm mental health). You want that second subfloor in there to help protect your storage from any water ingress that will pool at the very bottom (along with any potential longterm condensation) and because it is much easier to store and access supplies on a flat surface. Something else you could do is to add a large bladder underneath that subfloor and use that for bulk water storage. This would likely need to be a custom design (i.e. expensive) so that you utilise the entire area while going around the floor supports.

I love underground content. Been watching that other guys tunnel videos and really wish it was as easy as yall make it look. I am glad you are doing running total, and hope you would include machine rental in it. Look forward to this series, and think the culvert pipe is ingenious

You need to start selling tickets to see this in person. I’d be first in line. Incredible project!

Collin Furze, has been doing this on a scale much larger in complexity! Really epic what all he's been able to do so far and mind blowing how he is expanding it. Excited to see how this turns out!

Incredible video, I love how you kept it short but still was able to condense so much of your thought process into it! A great spin pn Colin Furze's bunker!

Wanted to do something like this all my life. Can't wait to see how it turns out. We install this professionally for stormwater all the time.

This project is certainly bigger than the hummer! I've previously made plans to dig out a crawlspace in my home. It must be to fulfill the childhood dreams of digging to the bottom of the sandbox.

“How many projects can you do at the same time?” Jerry : Yes

Been following for years, love seeing everything you have done over the years. This is gunna be an awesome project to following and get tips from

Love the enthusiasm. This build reminds of Colin Furze bunker project from several years back. I followed that with a lot of interest and look forward to going on this journey with you.
