What do you think of Doomsday Preppers? I’m not taking about the show, but real people who do it.

@DareToSayIT I think they would stay under for sure. If they were really smart about it, the bunker would be below the garage floor, not outside where most of them put them. The other thing is, look at how tight and small those bunkers are. You're telling me 3 or 4 people are gonna stay in there 95% of the time?? I don't think so. It's so unrealistic. No beds, where does everyone sleep? They didn't even think of that.

The only thing these preppers think about is, oh boy, I got myself 10 years of food and batteries and supplies!! 40 years later all that stuff has already expired and they don't even know it. I'd love to see them do a test run of getting into their bunkers and then realizing, "well shoot, we really don't have the space in this thing, but at least I got supplies" and then looking over and seeing all the expiration dates lmao.

And.... imagine you are a family, husband, wife with 3 kids aged, 2, 4 and 8 and an infant. Good luck is all I have to say. I mean really, like how do you get formula for the baby? Diapers? Wet wipes? Even if you did stock up on those things, eventually they'll run out. And then what do they do? These preppers think they're ahead of the game, but they didn't think of any of this stuff.

@twiigss Also let’s not forget the sewage and garbage disposal. If the bunker doesn’t have toilets that can flush into the main sewage(which is most probably blocked or flooded due to the catastrophe, I can see the pressure of fluid flooding the bunker. The designs of these things are not very well thought through unless it’s some guy like the dad from “blast from the past”, but hard to imagine any of the peepers to be that smart.

@DareToSayIT Oh absolutely!! Yeah the whole thing is just not well thought out at all. All they see is, I have stuff for 10 years. Like, okay but what about all the other things you would need to worry about? <crickets>

@Matt85 yes, they can.

@Colonelmustardseed yeah, probably some portion of humanity would rely on them if we hit a global catastrophe.

@DareToSayIT I think most of them who aren’t extreme (who end up on those shows) don’t let anyone know that they’re prepping. 😬 They don’t want hysterical people coming for their supplies or shelter.

@DareToSayIT absolutely

@chickiegirl95 you are a good soul.

@DareToSayIT thank you

@FishBotDimwit oh yes, preppers are ok, the violent nuts are not.

@Beautyinbroken yes, too much work and you literally stop living worrying about something that may never happen.
