From Hill to Archie, there are a few famous Bunkers. But today we’re going to talk about a different kind of bunker: the underground type that’s meant to save its occupants from the apocalypse. Colin Furze has a most unusual resumé — inventor, stuntman, plumber — and he’s recently added bunker builder to the list.
As part of a promotion for the TV show You, Me, & the Apocalypse, Furze decided that his plan — were he to know that the world would end in just over a month — would be to build an underground shelter where he could ride out the disaster, as well as the mounting hysteria leading up to it.
Over several YouTube videos, you can watch his bunker take shape. First, he starts with a plan (which looks remarkably similar to a child’s rendering of a bunker), which is basically to clear out the garden behind his house, dig a big hole, make a room, then create a tunnel leading from the room to a shaft with a shed on top.
The video series is only halfway done at this point. It took a digger to create a rectangle extending over 11 feet into the ground. Once that was done, it was time to start constructing the bunker, with a steel floor, walls, and roof. And let’s just say it wouldn’t be fun to have Furze as a neighbor; the entire process is pretty loud.
The next three episodes, airing in November, will show the two-month project coming to an end, along with showing how Furze and some friends fare when spending a night in the bunker. His initial plan for the bunker was quite rudimentary, and there wasn’t a bathroom included, so a night is probably all anyone could stand down there.
Outdoor security cameras are not always practical if you live in an apartment or rental. Drilling into an exterior wall may be off-limits, while pointing a regular indoor camera through a window can create another problem once reflections start showing up after dark.
Baseus is trying to solve both issues with the new PrimeSentinel W1, a $69.99 security camera designed specifically to monitor the outdoors through glass. It mounts directly to a window without drilling and uses a 4K Starlight sensor with an F1.0 aperture for full-color monitoring during the day and at night.

Technology evolves every day, transforming how we live and work. Our devices are becoming more than tools we use. They are increasingly capable companions that help streamline day-to-day routines and spark creative ideas. If you have been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tech setup, the Discover Samsung Shopping Event offers an opportunity to explore what connected, AI-powered living can look like.
With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.
Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
