Georgia underground bunker hits the market for $17.5 million

Certified to withstand a 20,000 ton nuclear blast...
I would assume those certifying it will not be there to ensure the certification.
If their certification is incorrect, the folks in the bunker would not be there to collect.
Do you get a laminated piece of paper with this certification?

Tifton is just east of where I grew up, in the coastal plain. There are VERY few basements in the area due to the high ground water levels. How they keep this dry would be interesting to see. Good luck on the sale.

So then the attorney said: "I don't understand the problem...every other surveyor has had no qualms about signing this certification"

No elevator. I guess it's not a big deal since you only go down the stairs once in a couple hundred millions years?

I didn't see an indoor garden.
$175,000,000 dollar home and your stuck eating MRE's for the rest of your life.

Prime example of more money than brains.

Weapons room was awful small.

I think if your in the bunker every rooms becomes a weapons room. I agree they didnt really plan ahead.

That's one certification not worth the paper it's printed on, but I suppose if it makes someone with $17.5 million to burn feel better ...
Looks like a fancy subterranean mausoleum to me. Without a completely self contained life support system, pretty much worthless, otherwise you have the half life of Uranium 232, about 70 years, to go bonkers.

Not nearly big enough to address the mine shaft gap!

A little interweb research leads one to believe that the original use of the bunker was part of the AT&T longlines system that was hardened to survive a Soviet first strike. Ah, the old family business....my father was one of the managers at the Defense Nuclear Agency for the project.

Is that you, Buck?

Which floor is the "Finished Basement"?

It was awfully nice of them to show pictures of the outside along with the property location. Now when the Zombie apocalypse hits I know where I can go for shelter. Especially knowing that they have a "Weapons Room".
