Oh, definitely those antenna tunnels sound exciting. Watched a guy use his gas a mask's drinking tube to drag on a cigarette once. Make sure those things are fit tested and check the positive and negative pressure. Good masks, especially handy being able to swap the filters for firearms if you're a lefty like me. The fuller visor is definitely the way to go for visibility.

Thanks Nik. That was a really interesting video. I have been inside the air shafts at later Titan I sites but not an early one like yours. I would have been slightly dubious climbing through those blast valves given they are under big spring pressure. It is great that you are documenting every corner of the place and I cant wait to see more of silo 3 when its pumped down. Cheers!

This is incredible footage. Exit, amazing drone footage, brother! Absolutely gorgeous flythrough! Those blast valves are massive. Best I could figure from the drawings and plans for the facility is that the powerdome intake and exhaust blast valves were around 6ft (1.83m) in diameter. My guestimation seems to have been very close! Some of these facilities have a ladder to the surface that is welded to the vertical corrugated metal shaft on the intake building. I wonder if the rungs of yours is still intact! 568A's ladder was partially removed after about 20ft down. I'll have to order some filters for my mask before I come down. They should fit my Israeli mask. Also spent most of the day working on the launcher platforms and started work on the elevator and cribbing structure. The Titan one missles themselves are shaping up nicely. Wild seeing them towering over the silo doors. Gives me chills haha. Cheers everyone! Glad to be back at it!

Great to explore new parts of that place that have probably never been seen since it was built .. and that was one of them !! A few questions if you don't mind ... I noticed that when you got behind the valve it just looked like metal against metal to seal it ... is/ would it be some kind of rubber seals around it ?? Lastly, If THEM vents did shut during an attack would they use the same oxygen system that they use for the missile? Surly with them MASSIVE engines running that air wouldn't last 5 minutes !!

Good observation. I’m sure there was a seal. If they blast valves were shut due to nuclear detonation, oxygen will be depleted.

Could you guys do a graphic of a scale drawing from above of an Atlas-F site compared to a T1 site to a T2 site to a Minuteman site? I feel that I have a pretty good perspective as to how big the T1 sites are compared to other missile systems, but I bet a lot of viewers would be helped in their T1 understanding by that graphic. Just a thought.

@@NuclearBunkerLiving Outstanding! I really find that profoundly fascinating. As a former Strategic Air Command officer, I was only involved with bombers. It amazes me how important the strategic missile program was through the Cold War and how little attention it actually got. I think that’s a great part of the appeal of this channel. It is truly addressing, literally firsthand, a huge part of American military history that almost no one knows anything about. An episode on this evolution up until today would be fascinating showing how the T1s are the “big grandpa” of the MM3s of this very day.

Hello nick,pat and the team. Great vid again,the drone footage is CGI quality. I'm surprised the blast doors aren't just spring loaded,and using air or hydraulics to hold the doors open. As for other things to see,more explores into every pipe and chamber and 3d mapping of the complex with an overlay of how it was when it was operational so that viewers could compare. Also I had an idea that the exhaust port could be an easier access for removing the debris from the generator hall, with it's own goods lift/hoist/crane! Stay safe,have fun.looking forward to the next part of your adventure.

We don’t have Missile silos here but we do have the Diefenbunker, a bunker that is built out side of the capitol city Ottawa, during prime minister Diefenbakers term. It is now decommissioned and has been turned into a museum. Many of the furnishings that were sold off for surplus have been returned.

Do those Mira masks have intake-channeling so the air that comes-in keeps your lenses and faceplate dry so you don't get your breath condensing-out and fogging-up the inside of the mask? They're really expensive but I could definitely use one - and of note, I visited their website and their CBRN cartridges are mondo expensive, but they have a line of cheaper cartridges that are much more in my price range. And as I'm not overly worried about CBRN - mostly just fine particulates, like smoke and paint fumes - they'd be a much better deal. May have to get me one of those... Thanks - and I can see why you'd want them for exploring the exhaust silo!!!
