Mark Zuckerberg has addressed rumours of a huge ‘doomsday bunker’ supposedly hidden below his $270,000,000 compound.

Speculations had swirled around social media that the Facebook co-founder had installed a 5,000 square foot bunker underneath his home in Hawaii.

With Zuckerberg being the third richest person on Earth, many shared how they weren’t exactly surprised that someone with so much wealth would build a bunker.

On Reddit, one user wrote: “I would too if I was him. You know why? Because unlike the rest of us, he can afford to do this and be wrong. So the world doesn’t go to s***, big deal, you spent a small percentage of your fortune. But if it does, you’ll be fine while the rest of us fight over toilet paper.”

Another said: “Let’s be f***ing honest. Every rich billionaire in the world already has a bunker and fully prepped for the society to end. Zucks in the only idiot who did it in Hawaii and got caught.”

And a third person joked: “Maybe he’s just a really big Lost fan and he’s recreating Desmond’s bunker.”

However, while Zuckerberg has since addressed these rumors, he didn’t completely dismiss them.

Instead, he said that the building work was more of a ‘little shelter’ rather than a doomsday bunker.

Speaking to Bloomberg, the Meta boss explained what he is building underneath his 1,400 acre home in Kauai.

He said: “No, I think that’s just like a little shelter. It’s like a basement.”

Zuckerberg has an enormous net worth of around $215 billion and last year, it was revealed that he was in the process of building a compound.

This included an underground shelter and over a dozen buildings with around 30 bedrooms and bathrooms.

There will reportedly be two mansions that are connected by a tunnel that can also take them to the underground shelter.

The compound produces its own food with cattle, horses, a nursery, an organic ginger farm and a nearby turmeric farm.

It even has its own water supply with a water tank and a pump system, according to planning documents obtained by WIRED.

Local journalist Allan Parachini wrote a critical op-ed about Zuckerberg in 2016 for the Garden Island where he criticized the tech mogul’s decision to erect ‘a rock wall in front of his 700-acre oceanfront property’.

He encouraged locals to ‘tell Zuckerberg that abusing his stewardship of public beaches as if we are just another batch of Facebook victims is unacceptable’.
