Texans, fearing nuclear war, are spending up big on bunkers

DOOMSDAY DUNGEONS/ (PICTURES) Inside the nuclear bomb shelters being installed throughout Texas as residents prepare for global apocalypse. The bunkers range from £31,000 to £6.6million THE SUN, BY SAM WEBB 2nd February 2017

AMERICANS fearing that society is going to collapse or President Trump will spark a nuclear war have been investing in bunkers to ride out the apocalypse.

Sales of the mini-fortresses have spiked since the divisive billionaire took the reins – and terrified families are taking steps to survive Armageddon……..

Depending on the model, the shelters can offer basic amenities like a bed, kitchen, toilet and shower to an underground mansion with dozens of separate apartments, garden rooms for growing fresh fruit and veg, a games room, sauna, pool, power generator and gym…….

In recent months sales of the most luxurious bunkers have jumped 700 per cent.

A growing phenomenon in the US is ‘prepping’, where people worried about the end of the world prepare for the chaos by undergoing survival and military training, stockpiling weapons and preparing bolt-holes in remote locations.https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2769421/inside-the-nuclear-bomb-shelters-being-installed-throughout-texas-as-residents-prepare-for-global-apocalypse
