Bruce Campbell lives in a retired 727 located in the forests outside Portland, Oregon.
No, really.
In the category of THINGS THAT ARE AWESOME, Bruce Campbell decided to move into a Boeing 727, rather than build a traditional home.
I originally found him on YouTube, but he has a website dedicated to his home here.
His dream is that rather than allowing aircrafts to be scrapped, we turn them into homes. Â As he says in the following video, he believes if aliens exist, they would find it silly that we destroy old airplanes rather than use them as homes.
A tour of his 727 home is here:
Bruce Campbell is a retired electrical engineer. Â According to Digital Trends, he purchased the craft for $100,000. Â He put $120,000 into the renovations.
According to Bored Panda, he only lives in this structure six months out of the year. Â He is looking to purchase a 747 in Japan, where he lives the other half of the year.
I kind of expected the inside to look more…uh…”finished” given what he invested in it. Like those houses made from shipping containers.
I think a lot of the cost went into the plumbing, not the design!
The primitive shower and existing toilets? He doesn’t even have a rug! Though I know he is surviving in what seems to be the middle of nowhere.
A rug would really tie the room together.
