Want to prepare for the end of the world in style? A Kansas developer has just the nuclear missile silo — er, make that underground luxury condo — for you.

Larry Hall has built one such abandoned Cold War-era silo in Kansas into 14 floors of plush condominium housing, replete with a pool, movie theater, library, indoor farm and — eventually — a medical center and school, AFP reported.

The hostile outside world is kept at bay with an elaborate above-ground security system involving camera, fingerprints and barbed wire.

Nine-foot-thick concrete walls protect the column of condos, and a steel and concrete core inside those protect against earthquakes.

The condos can also, of course, supply their own energy, and once the farm is operational they'll supply their own food

Reminds me of how one of the developers of the old school RPG series Wizardry who goes by the name of Cleve went crazy and built himself a fallout base in Australia or something lol. He's been working on new RPG for a while but dunno if its vaporware or not, I see on his site however that he's making an iOS game called ATOMIC WAR!, how fitting .

Wow, he is prepared for the Apocalypse, a political revolution, and war. I wonder if he also has trained staff working for him since a a medical center and school needs trained people to run it effectively.
