[QUOTE="farmer17, post: 2729125, member: 8389"] I build above ground concrete shelters and statistics that I have read say there has never been one person hurt or killed in any legitimate above ground shelter in any tornado. There was one old woman who died in her above ground shelter in Joplin and it showed the door was all mangled up, but later the news said she died of natural causes and the door was torn up by the fire department getting her out. There have been people killed in underground shelters. Houses can fall in on top of the shelter and catch on fire from the natural gas/propane lines, people can die from breathing dust or toxic fumes, etc. I remember hearing about the children in the Moore school basement that died of drowning, did anyone hear any details on that?
