I don't know what it is with people and fearing bombs, guns and wars. Oh, these things are quite common these days. While this might not be a bomb-proof bathtub, it is certainly something that is likely to protect you a lot better in case World War III breaks out anytime soon. Radius Engineering Intl. has built a cool new shelter called Earthcom model that can accommodate 200 people. It's quite an expensive affair at $1.6 million worth of fiberglass arches, a septic system, a communications package with high-tech radio equipment, and a food and fuel package, among other amenities. Apparently, to maintain this baby it will cost about $3,296,100 and some $100k more to make it comfortable. Of course, this shelter is for the big guns, if you want something a little less expensive they offer bomb shelters starting from $14k.
