VBS - MISSILE SILO HOMES

Head on over to VBS today to watch our

exploration of repurposed missile silos

across the American west. Way back when, the good ol' US of A got in a kerfuffle with the USSR and we built a whole load of massive, winding underground labyrinths stuffed to the brim with nuclear warheads. Nowadays, the American military's busy fighting

hotter, deadlier wars throughout the Middle East

so the government's selling off the abandoned silos at auction. Which means weirdo begeirdos of every stripe have been converting these structures into houses, UFO research HQs, SCUBA training grounds, you name it. Take a tour of these incredible structures with our intrepid team as they wade through the rusty, flooded military installations of yesteryear.
