This wacko actually has a business building these shelters for other wackos. |
Another lady was certain that an underwater volcano would erupt and flood the entire east coast. She had a 3 year supply of food, water, and toilet paper among other things stashed in her basement. Her intended course of action was to throw everything in inflatable rafts and paddle to high ground when the tsunamis hit.
In both cases, the subjects of the show had large families helping them. My first question is, how do their family members not stop them from behaving like lunatics? Secondly, what if the apocalypse doesn't come when they expect it to? What if it strikes tomorrow and they aren't ready yet? What if it doesn't occur for 300 years, and all their preparations have long since gone to waste? I'd be really annoyed if I dedicated my entire life to getting ready for something that I never got to see actually happen.
But my biggest issue with the "doomsday preppers" is, what if they are prepping for the wrong doomsday? How much would it suck to have your shelter fully stocked, with your bullet and rum making systems in place and ready to go; then have it all rendered useless by the floods.
