My thought on reading and watching it was.
It's so simple why wasn't it invented before now. Duh! I could have been RICH!
My wife hates ugly storage buildings I could build it in the front yard and disguise it as a boulder, she'd love it! LMAO

Gabby that would add a whole new facet to the old question, "have you been living under a rock?"

Bill that was great I really did LOL.
As long as I'm dry and relatively comfortable, I'd do just that!
Don't take a whole lot to keep me happy.  ;D

That is a pretty good idea.  Maybe someone could subsidize a number of these for Haiti.  Seems like it would be better than what they have now (in some places).

I would think Japan would have some uses for them too. Any place that's had catastrophic damage to their structures. Great for temporary shelter of any kind if it fits store it. or live in it.
Imagine, if they could link several of these together with free form hallways, you could house a complete family (5 or more people) with bedrooms etc. More imagination at work.
I'll bet the military are looking at them!

That is bloody awesome.
There is a distributor in the usa, click on About US at the top then on 6.2 Global Activity there you will find the distributors.

Merlin,
Was that the Cave outfit in Virginia? It was listed as a distributor but when I went to their site there was no mention of the concrete tent and a search of their site gave no result.
Do you have a better link?
