Go Inside a $25 million doomsday bunker built in 1974 

As Swiss citizen I confirm

I used to live near Zurich in the 1980's. We had a shelter in our basement. We used it to keep our wine and beer. Almost all houses built after 1960 had an atomic bomb shelter in them. The whole country could live in the mountain shelters.

wüki ? hani nöt gwüsst. Mir sind scho voll parat für alles hahaha.

We also have a famour RU-vidr in Geneva. He made a video about one of the biggest bunker in Switzerland (Lucerne) . Unfortunately, it's only in french : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k4baN9SdCTI.html

@@OmDesk Smartass. Not everyone knows about swiss bunkers.

They will never allow You to see it

In about 30-50 years maybe after they retire the new ones

Maybe not this special army unit .. but you can see some airbases inside the mountains .. here on youtube

This is quite a small bunker. In Switzerland there are some hollowed out mountains. Some for tanks, some for jetplanes, even gigantic command centers.

they gonna show you ,but than they're gonna kill you dough:)

Thousands!

In Norway alone there is about 600 government/public bunkers. With civilian/private(inkluding public buildings and private buildings) bunkers there are 20 000 bunkers with room for about 2 500 000 people. Some are rented to different organisations(gun range, car clubs etc) to keep them maintained.

Relics of the cold war.

@@Outland9000 Well the cold War is back now in full swing. Perfect time to dust off the old bunkers and build new ones!

there whole cities under ground, in america there is a huge under ground rail road used for u.s army to transport secretes...

You got that right

Yep it’s a maze let alone only half or so finished test needs some works

You won't be there by yourself. You are going to have handpicked mechanics, machinists, medical staff, cooks, armorers, engineers, supply staff, security, etc. 180 people, but probably about 1/3 of them have support functions. Back in the Cold War days the US FPS and FPA/FEMA had whole courses in shelter management and people that specialized in that arena.

@@kenibnanak5554 You will still have to train them too?????

You would need an AI house manager like Tony Stark has in his house. You just tell the computer what you want and it makes it happen. If you really tried to ride out world war 3 in this bunker you would need at least a 12-man security team . You would want each one of them to have a partner one big rule no swapping partners. Two dozen people locked up underground for up to a year is a stressed environment. You don't want to be the only guy without a girlfriend or cause problems between couples. It's bad for the security of the bunker. After a yr you could send out drones to see what's happening. You could outfit them with radiation detectors as well as the standard cameras and microphones. You could even rig infrared or a thermal viewing.

I think the best method is to build them way above ground level, inside some mountain and not some place in water logged South Dakota underground in the plains. Yea those go to shit over decades.

@@tomking2030 water still come down from mountain

@@onlythewise1Sure, but that's so much more preferrable and easier to deal with then when you're below the water table. I grew up just 3 streets from a massive NATO communication bunker which was built during the Cold War and decommissioned somewhere around 2000, and taken fully out of government care half a decade or so back. Up until the late 2010's although it had been decommisioned for some time the government still maintained it all very well and kept the electricity on and the pumps running. But when they took it fully offline water seeped in FAST, as it was built 10 meters underground in a part of the country below sea level. It was evemtually put up for auction and no one ended up buying it, so the municipality, who had it thrown in their leap, ended up giving it away for free basically, the local amateur radio club now has access to and uses it. When last october they gave guided tours around the complex I inmediately took the opportunity and had a look. It's a 2 story complex meant for up to 100 or men, with bathrooms, showers, a cafetaria, a recreation room, a kitchen, and of course the communications rooms, but sadly the lowest floor was half submerged for quite some time and had it not been for the local amateur radio club the first floor would have completely disappeared under water. Instead they tried to restore it to its former glory and started with clearing out the water by running pumps, by the time the guided tours happened the bottom level was walkable again (though only in wellies), but the air was thick with mould and it was clear the entire bottom floor was a write off and the top floor wasn't that far from it either. Such a shame, it would have had a lot of potential, if only someone would have kept the pumps running after they took the complex offline....

Yes the Swiss take security seriously

??? Don't they have open borders to migrants

You don't invade your banker.

@@sd906238 Yes. However, the Plan did exist. The only problem is that the Swiss turned their country into an impenetrable fortress and the Nazis would've been hard pressed to complete their operation. It was Hitler's Generals that pointed this put to him. In fact, many German and Allied aircraft were either forced down or shot down during World War II. The Swiss didn't discriminate.

In complete fairness, Switzerland was not the only country to build itself into the mountains. Germany itself has bunkers all throughout the country that many people don't know about. I do because I was stationed there in the military. It was actually fascinating to be taken on certain tours and given the ability to see some of the Subterranean and into the Mountain built bunkers. There are certain areas where one could be driving down the highway and not realize that there was a facade next to them that would suddenly be capable of opening up and the tanks would start rolling out. That's one of the reasons that Germany was so difficult to take on during WWII. Their assets were hidden in mountains which method could not be destroyed quite as easily. The secrets of WWII have never been completely totaled for obvious reasons. If countries know of how Germany concealed their assets and if they knew we knew how they concealed their assets they would find other ways of doing it. So let's just say that everyone knows the secrets that everyone says they don't know. LOL.

@@justanotherguy3850 I too am aware of Germany's of their mountains that they've used as fortresses and hideaways. They were notorious for it. Especially in their use of building their "Wunderwaffes" ("Wonder Weapons") and slave labor facilities duringWorldWarII. However, Switzerland has continued to use their mountains for an integral part of their National Defense Policy even to this date. If I had the monies, I'd be doing the same thing. It's much better than having a bunker built and installed.

@@southtexasprepper1837 :: yes, the infrastructure history of World War II is fascinating as well as unique. I was a military policeman and I was assigned to a particular facility we're all of the leaders of countries belonging to Nato could gather for safety. Of course I can't give specifics but the facility could withstand a direct nuclear strike and not be affected. We were essentially the rapid response force that protected the facility inside and out. It was interesting duty to say the least and because of the security clearance I had it is a lifetime of silence. More to the point, the fact they built such intricate facilities is amazing. It's good to see that technology used in building some of those facilities have been incorporated into the atlas shelters.

@@supercarakita1148 Switserland is the only country in eu who has gun laws as in some of your states,.. i my country,.. we can not have guns at all and believe me, the dont sell all bunkers,.. there are millatry airbasis inside the mountains and streets around it are landing strips under geneva and zurich the are realy big bunkers and bunkervaults .. and the millatry in switserland is well organise, in a critical situation the have there army in a few hours strengthens up with 50 thousends men ,.. and in a day with 100.000. and most of the soldiers nows were to go what to defend and how .. this is because beside the proff. army the have also a army duty for every men,.. from 18 years till about 40 .. an the are verry patriotic in the suisse

@@loekweekers Its a common misconception that almost all European countries have banned guns. Plenty of countries have easy gun laws in Europe. Italy, Spain, Portugal, Norway, Czech, Finland, France. All these countries its very easy for citizens to get a gun license and most of these countries even foreigners that live in the country can get a gun license.

@@Shifisu i said ..that the gun laws from suisse almost the same as some of your states .. as far as i know you can not carry a gun in all of the other countries . You can have them .. go to shooting range ( in a case)or go hunting .. but not carry in public,

@@loekweekers Ahh I misunderstood then, my bad. I thought you ment Switserland was the only country in EU to be able to own a gun

@@Shifisu its ok .. my englisch is not verry good..

You sound rich … you need a husband ?

@@Mr.Helper. sorry, married.

They are selling it. Can't find a buyer if you don't advertise it somehow.

Se salvarán los más listos

There is one major Achilles heal to all bunkers? What is it .?

Pls dont compare it with swiss stuff. Swiss is another level but the costs are ridiculous XD

@@OmDesk I was being sarcastic because rising S bunkers are absolute shit they don’t last and they’re under ground.

@@leatherneckprepper4477 i have heard that. Is just that like risingS are like c tier bunker vs a swiss S++ bunker hahaha

it's not the cooler temp its the lack of fluctuation. bunker building guy doesn't know about thermal stability lol

Yeah I had a laugh when they said that was a 180 man kitchen xD You'd be pushing it for a smaller restaurant if things were busy.

I remember doing the dick and cover when I was in elementary school. I don't think it would of saved my life when the school was in Mountain View California right across the freeway was Moffitt field Navy base. Silicone valley. I used to see the U2 spy plane take off . It was loud. You couldn't hear the teacher talk. Had to wait till it was way gone before you could hear the teacher. She also had to wait to be heard. Now the base is shut down and I think Google is leasing it now. In case of emergency they don't tell you where to go if a missile is barring down on you just like hear on Hawaii when on the news they said a missile was launched heading straight to Hawaii and it said it was no test it was really happening. Nothing came on the TV saying where to go to be protected. So I just closed my windows and sat there waiting and watching to see what's coming first more news or a missile bringing everyone a bad day. Finally after over 30 minutes the new came on and said false alarm someone hit the wrong switch. I thought how can something like that get through United States of America's defense. I thought we were bad ass the news has to be wrong. It wasn't done on April 1st. That would of been a really bad joke but it's better then the real thing.

I used to live in El Cajon. can you share the location?

@@skipstreetIf you remember the old Buck Knives building on Weld, looks like Moell Machine and some other there now, it was next to it to the east. It was hard to see anything other than the ventilation stacks sticking up above the ground, you had to go around to the far side to gain entry.

Does anyone find it interesting that our governments build their survival bunkers with the funding from it's citizens yet they get to sell it and do you suppose the people will ever see any benefit from this US vs. THEM attitude!! I got mine. Get yours!

I was amazed at how many bunker and anti-tank constructions you can see just by driving on public roads in Swizerland. especially in the Cantons Uri, Schwyu and Unterwalden ( Nidwalden) You actually drive over covered up parts of those anti tank walls on a few of the roads, leaving me to think they can just build them back in any time it is required. And you can clearly see concrete buildings on mountain sides leading into critical strategic points like mountain passes. And if you can see so many stuff as a normal tourist ( they don't mind you seing it), what do you think the modern bunkers look like...

Swiss, Austrian, German all basically the same people. Its not because of government. They excel everywhere they go.

That's because they don't outsource to the lowest bidder, who then outsources ALL of their materials to China, to still make an obscene profit, even as the lowest bidder.

Great video! Even the Swiss are suspicious of the Russians.

Ok 👍🏼

@Van Life and your statement shows your intelligence

@Van Life Look at the view count now 😀 genius

@Van Life huh? What do you get out of life being negative…

Yes it is .. even more, .. almost every house has a bunker, and there are also big community bunkers .. and also defense bunkers .. in mountains, on the mountains or towns .. there are also chalets and barns al over, that most people dont know its a defense bunker .. and i know under a street in zurich there is a big vault bunker .. switserland is one big defense fortress

@@loekweekers We have this type of shelters almost everywhere in Switzerland, yes!

@@kweeFilms i know i found it verry intresting when i lived in your country,.. special when i see a fighter plane cross a street (somewere between Geneva and Montreux),... i love your country,.. i worked in Geneva .. i worked at Rolex and see underground there big vaults and bunker.. impressing

@@loekweekers Yes we have a lot of them but unfortunately, they are not all accessible.. I mean, if there is an alarm and we have like 10min to hide, we can not go inside thoses bunker cause they are closed. Another solution is that we have small bunkers under our living building.. but they are not really good. It's still better than nothing.

@@kweeFilms YOU HAVE 100% MORE THEN IN THE NETHERLANDS, we dont have not bunkers at home, and i dont know about public bunkers at all

Because they all look alike?

It sounded like this bunker was in the process of being refurbished as a secure data center for servers/network equipment.

@@tonytesta3695 You're right! They use it as a "SERVER ROOM" now .. as it's "cold" inside and quiet. A lot of bunkers here in Switzerland are used like that.

It appears this is a private business that rents out high security data storage. If I had data worth anything, I would want someone armed to prevent criminals from making entry to the facility.

@@ericmattinen4728 Yes for sure. I think that it's because they have a visitor which is an American. And not everyone but most of my friends don't like the thinking of an American. So maybe this is why he has a gun with him. Switzerland is very ultra safe, I never had to worry about being killed at 3 am in the woods walking home high, listening to music with full volume. It really is a different country. I mean if something would happen they won't just let 1 ppl handle it. there gonna be a whole squad. but in this case I really think that he's a special agent. Or maybe outside there are soldier waiting for something to happen.

he could also be a private citizen. if you've ever been to a big armoury or shooting range you'll see the staff being armed - it's one of the only reason a carry permit may be issued.

Right. Like that squirrel guy who everybody hates because he murdered so many people. You know the one who recently divorced.

Having worked in one I can assure you the exact opposite. It makes you feel like your last line of defense is up. There are a few vulnerabilities as well such as a Carbon Monoxide exhaust which hangs at the very top. Anyone could do anything to it such as plugging it and you are dead.

The USA is the most peaceful country in the world!!! )))))) Hey, you need to clean you brain.

@@ratibor3000 try "reading" what I wrote. Where did I say the US wasn't?

Это всё сказки. Какие зелёные береты? В 1980-е США и СССР ограничились бы ядерными ударами. И то, если бы начали США. У СССР таких планов всерьёз не было. После этого уже никто на Швейцарию уже бы не нападал.

I bet this has been going on since the beginning of corruption. i live paycheck to paycheck, barley getting by to pay my rent well my taxes are use to keep them safe.

@@MichaelGhost You are jsut a statistic to the government. People need to take their well being into their own hands

@@Canadian_Eh_I I just now getting what people call prepping, I got some sleeping bags & 2 tents & also I take about $20 each month to buy nothing but canned food. But in reality I wouldn’t bug out. Yes I can try to escape out of the city but I don’t really haven’t gotten a clue where to go.

hehe noticed the same thing too :D

Except they are surrounded by many enemies and have had dozens of wars in Europe. USA has only been invaded once since it became a nation, by Great Britain (War of 1812). Plus the Civil War, so only two shooting wars in 250 years.

@@themoviedealers Alaska might not have been a state when it's Aleutian islands were invaded by the Japanese but it was still sovereign US soil. Pancho Villa led a raid across the border and attacked Columbus, NM. That led to the Punitive Expedition ordered by Wilson (the only good thing that commie ever did).

I would assume he is military since it's a military bunker. They carry sidearms. He is most likely their version of an MP, or just a soldier that got tour duty for the day. It still has classified info in it, so I doubt that's a real estate agent. If not classified, he should have been able to film every room, and the biometric security wouldn't be in place.

​@Robert Kaevur no, of course not, it's not like it already exists since ww2. wake up boomer p.s. what are nuclear powered TBM? self lined tunnels.. yeap.
