Can you imagine having four people in this pod for hours or even days? Where's the food and water? But people are buying them :shock:

How about hopping in it and having a f-4 or 5 tornado pick you up and take you for a ride, kinda looks like it has size limits to would need a xx large in the U.S.
Can't see vary good, hearing is bad, computer skills suck and, my grammer and spelling are piss poor, I guess I'm just screwed.

That could be kinda fun as long as it held together, it would be like a maned version of that thing (Dorothy) from the movie Twister.

I didnt see any way to get air.If it's watertight,it's airtight too.It would really suck to survive the disaster,but die becouse you ran out of air.
I'd much rather have one of the baby concrete Monolithic domes,that can be brought in on a flatbed.

I want to die in my sleep just like my Grandpa,not yelling and screaming like the passengers in his car. ""I'm the one you go to when something absolutely has to go"Kaaboommm"!!!!""

I think its dumb to have the door at the side too. They say its self righting in the water so when you open the hatch, water rushes in, better take a good long breath. I think they could have put the hatch toward the top without problem.

I don't think my 6'3" frame would fit very comfortably in there, with my wife and kids...I'll take my chances in my truck!
