More recently, the network has a very unusual about strange things Canadian, who 50 years ago began to acquire and dig into the ground... old school buses. Many think that this is just a crazy eccentric, but as it turned out, for this strange act has a good reason and noble motives, which we now describe.
This is a strange story began in the 60s of the last century, at the height of the Cold War, when even Presidents of the Great Powers urged people to stock up on food and basic necessities in the event of nuclear war. Because of this situation, forcing the hysteria started, many people over the construction of various shelters, which were to save their family from imminent death, as previously reported in the pages of Novate. Ru. I was no exception and Bruce Beach (Bruce Beach), who lived at that time in Chicago and worked as an electrical engineer in a large company.
Fearing that soon the cold war turn into a real reality, the man I sold all that he had, and moved to a small village, in a two-hour drive from Toronto (Canada). But he did not stop, Bruce bought a large plot of land and started construction of a big bunker, which should save them from nuclear apocalypse about 350 people.
After going through a bunch of ways to create such a large shelter, he stopped for a very original solution - just bury a certain number of buses are now creating shelter and storage for food storage power.
It took a few years to buy 42 old school buses and prepare a huge pit area of 1000 square meters. meters. When all was ready, Bruce Beach with a few volunteers, who supported him in such a noble and right case, set the machine in a certain order, then filled the entire area with concrete and covered with 4-meter layer land.
Then work began on the creation of comfortable living conditions in such an unusual place. A few decades has gone out to connect buses together, organizing all the necessary services, ranging from lighting and ventilation, sewage works and ending with registration of all necessary for comfortable living areas a large number of people under ground.
For the convenience of residence he shared the "living space" for male and female halves. The underground "hostel" has a seating area, beds, kitchen, toilets, storage, working room, medical room with all kinds of equipment (which is already hopelessly out of date!) and even game rooms for children. To ensure the work of all utilities and systems were installed generator power generation, and even laid a telephone line.
Bruce his creation called "The second ark» (Ark Two), which has really helped not one family to ride out dangerous times in the event of a nuclear attack. By the end of the last century all the work on improvement of the silo has been completed, but the owner is so unusual apartments continues to refine them, and to maintain in proper condition.
He has several times completely changed the supply of food, because canned food and cereals tend to deteriorate, and engineering facilities in such an environment are beginning to unravel.
At the moment, this unique building is the biggest private haven in North America, which, though inferior in luxury and introduction of new-fangled life-support systems of some other private air-raid shelter, but it can save many more lives of ordinary people.
Bruce Beach is a great believer in not only support in full combat readiness, but also defends the right to its existence. After all, local authorities have repeatedly tried to close this facility, referring to the threat to public safety, but the owner and some caring people so far managed to defend it.
Such obsessions to save their lives from all sorts of misfortunes visited people around the world. For example, thanks to convincing invented media zombie apocalypse, some originals seriously preparing for this crazy event.
