More and more Americans are afraid of an attack, and are having “panic rooms”, ultra-secure rooms, built in their homes. The wealthiest people built residences that looked like impregnable citadels.
From now on, the new fad of the ultra-rich fits into just four walls. These are called “panic rooms”, ultra-resistant rooms in the house to be able to hide in the event of an attack. In Dallas (United States), Eva Michelle, customer manager at Fortified Estate, agreed to show France Télévisions the latest installation carried out by her company in a home. Against all expectations, inside this ultra-secure room, there is a simple dressing room. The place should definitely not resemble a vault so as not to arouse the suspicion of potential intruders.
Titanic projects
In some cases, the projects of billionaires have no limits. Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, Kim Kardashian and even Tom Cruise are all in the process of having giant survival rooms built. France Télévisions was able to access one of these titanic construction sites, with a ban on revealing the location or the name of the owner. A swinging bridge could in particular block access to the house. The owner of the future house, who testifies anonymously, says he is preparing for all scenarios, including a global attack of electromagnetic waves which would cut off electricity.
