REAL home security...

For those who want to keep their coins at home, this would be the ultimate design. I do it for much less, but almost as effective. Cheers, RickO

    add some ground impact sensors and good radar intercept on the roof and you're good to go

    I guess one could pay for it by renting it out to the local gendarmes for SWAT training.

    Col. Jeff Cooper's house at Gunsite was almost as secure as this one, and he was not a coin collector. Cheers, RickO

    Call me a cynic, but I'm confident that should the zombie apocolypse come to pass the primary concern will be fending off the survivors, not the zombies.

    However this abode certainly seems like a viable defense for the coming Redhead Apocalypse

    My home security is a trained killer dog. It is trained to kill to anyone who enters my home other than family. It goes straight for the throat. Warning image not for the faint of heart....

    Fivecents.... they are super alarm systems... have the best hearing of any dogs and are sure loud. Cheers, RickO

    Very true Ricko. Sometimes the best deterrent is a loud barking dog making lots of noise.

    Wow -- that home is funny & depressing at the same time.

    Cool but I think a really clever zombie would have no problem cutting his/her way into that roll up metal door.

    While I'm thinking of it, given the penchant of apocolyptical zombies for figuring stuff out, that home really out to sit on a solid marble base thats 20 feet off the ground with a 200 yard, beach sand clearing around the house that is devoid of everything except "automatically renewable" land mines!

    Just forget about UPS deliveries though.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    MacCrimmon... you should get his book and see what his house is like. (Jeff passed away a couple of years ago, but his wife still lives there). Even designed slotted shooting windows into the second floor... quite interesting.

    Ricko, This is great. I have some experience with anti-terrorist security measures and there are lots of things about this house that make me chuckle and laugh and then say "hmmmmmmmm." What's the name of the book? BTW, are you a Gunsite veteran? I'm thinking about taking one of the pistol classes. --Jerry

    I just leave a few blast-white 100-year old silver coins near the front door. Naturally the intruder would break in, see those coins, say "Pfft, those obviously aren't orginal" - and just leave.

    One word...EARTHQUAKE!!!

    Also, what happens if your pet tiger gets out of it's cage when the the home is all buttoned-up...or if an invited guest suddenly goes into a phychopathic rage...ain't no escaping the place either!

    Super safe residences tend to become more dangerous in many aspects.
  • Billet7Billet7 Posts: 4,923 ✭✭✭
    BTW which is more likely, earthquake or zombie attack?

    Unless the architect totally screwed up, this would be one of the safest places to be during an earthquake. It is located in poland, not really noted for seismic activity anyway. --Jerry

    God bless the individual who breaks in and is looking to steal or harm.
