Developer: Human race depends on world’s largest doomsday RV park in Kansas

awesome

A California entrepreneur says that the future of the human race could depend on a doomsday shelter RV park that his company is building in Kansas.

Vivos founder and CEO Robert Vicino doesn’t know if the apocalypse will come by way of nuclear war, meteorites or some other catastrophe but he’s pretty sure the Vivos Survival Shelter and Resort he’s building in 100-year-old man-made caves near Atchison will be the best place to survive.

...

The resort will include a bowling alley, a swimming pool with water slide, underground golf, archery, paintball, tennis and skateboard park and more.

But it all comes at a price. Customers will have to pay $1,000 per linear foot for their vehicle, plus $1,500 per person to cover one year worth of supplies. So a family of two adults and four children with a 27-foot RV would have to pay around $33,000.

In all, the resort will be able to hold around 1,000 RVs and 5,000 people. Construction is scheduled to begin in late August.

What will the NSA do when it comes across their screens?

Maybe that is why the NSA is spying? So that can tell when the end is near?

Will they tell all of us or keep it secret? How long can they keep it a secret?

Will Obama demand to be told?

What if it is a false alarm?

Can the NSA decipher a false alarm from the real thing?

The NSA is there to protect us, will they?

like from somebody sneaking in their bitten loved one, it is going to be a big plugged up hole full of zombies that is going to be a pain for the rest of us to have to open up and clean out.

Seriously though if one person was infected with some contagious disease or virus it would wipe out the entire lot.

1000 RVs with six people @ $33,000 equals $33,000,000. Divide by ten it comes to $3,300,000 a piece.

Fools and their money ...

the cockles of my heart to know that 5,000 people will be happily bowling, swimming, paintballing, golfing, and skateboarding while the world above them dies.

So I discovered on the video that they'll be able to survive at least a year down there. They had better hope that whatever hits doesn't go on longer than that, or else they'll be screwed big time.
