AS POLITICAL TENSIONS RISE AROUND the world some doomsday preppers are preparing for the fallout of a nuclear war. None of them, however, are as prepared as Bruce Beach, who has created a massive subterranean shelter out of 42 recycled school buses, topped with layers of concrete and soil, in an attempt to save humanity from armageddon.
The Ark Two Shelter is located in Horning Mills, Canada, and covers about 10,000 square feet of land. Beach, who believes that nuclear war will inevitably occur in the coming years, began constructing the shelter in the early 1980s and has cumulatively spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on construction equipment and legal fees to build what he views as a necessity for the future of the human race.
After entering the shelter through a small above-ground portal, survivors of a nuclear attack would descend 14 feet below ground to access the matrix of interconnected school buses that make up Ark Two. The underground complex includes dozens of fully functional rooms into the school bus shells, including two kitchens, a radio communications center, a doctor’s office, an exercise area, and even a laundry room.
