Are you capable of surviving in a shelter long term?
Depends on what we encounter:
- Gamma Ray Bursts: If we get a direct hit from a gamma ray burst, if you are not well protected chances are you will not survive.
- Solar Storms / Solar Flares: 11 years cycles which hits a minimum and a maximum activity. See NOAA - Space Environement Center
- Super Volcano: This would depend on how close you are to the eruption and/or if you have supplies. See Yellowstone Super Volcano
- Nuclear War: This once again would depend on how many were released, how far away, and how long you have made preparations to stay in your shelter.
Building a new house is the perfect time to incorporate a shelter underneath your home or you can build a short distance away. Have the best of both worlds and be ready for almost anything. The shelters are built of steel and concrete.
You have a good chance of surviving if you have these things:
- It takes a strong minded, mentally sound, and physically fit person. Being that people under estimate claustrophobic, size makes a difference.
- The person that is prepared and has lived in a shelter before a disaster will have a better chance to survive longer then others, as they are use to the environment and operations of a shelter.
- You must have supplies and the right amenities as well as wisdom, knowledge, and God on your side.
- You or someone in your shelter must be mechanically inclined; the more mechanically inclined the better your chance of survival. Examples: electrical knowledge, building knowledge, water resources and much more. You must be able to improvise and adapt as needed. You could plan on multiple people/families in a shelter to share costs and have multiple areas of expertise.
I know first hand of being in a disaster called Hurricane Rita. When the lights go out the crime starts; it's a free for all even in a small disaster zone. If something bigger happens in the U.S. there will not be enough Johnny Law to protect everyone and everything.
The way people are talking about the end coming in 2012, may not be so far-fetched if you take into consideration all the factors such as; increase in earthquakes, volcano eruptions, changing weather patterns as well as, solar flares predicted for 2013; all of which we cannot control that can alter our way of living. As an example, do a little research on Yellowstone Caldera. Disasters aside, shelters are excellent protection against high winds, tornados and other weather related storms.
If a major disaster occurs, money won't help you as much after the fact. Money can help you get ready now by building a shelter, buying storage food, and stocking up on everyday things we take for granted right now.
To build a shelter - LOCATION could increase your odds - if the ground ever shook below your area in the past - this is probably NOT the place to build a shelter. You also must be a great deal above sea level. To find out about your state go to http://www.usgs.gov/, scroll down to "science in your back yard" and choose your state. This site has a wealth of information for the person that wants to learn.
To build a Super Shelter is not cheap; costs could be a million plus depending on location, size and choice of bells and whistles in the shelter. The more you can put into it, financially and emotionally, increases your odds of survival. All jobs are cost plus.
If we build you a shelter, we will keep this information as confidential as possible; but you must know with all the planes and satellites complete secrecy is almost impossible. The best person to build your shelter is one that already has a shelter so they aren't beating on your door when the warning comes of an impending disaster. When all is said and done, your shelter may be your tomb. Your shelter enables you to have a choice of when, where, and how to die. To me, this is priceless.
Before contacting our company, look at other shelters and do the research for what you are looking for. Serious inquires only; a letter of intent from your bank can qualify you.
Our shelters are engineered and designed by Welders On Wheels Inc.®
