Japanese Company Building Personal Noah’s Arks

A Japanese company is building tsunami survival pods.

It looks like one giant tennis ball, but a Japanese company says its yellow capsule could be the key to survival if the country gets hit by another powerful earthquake and tsunami.

Dubbing its survival shelter Noah, Cosmo Power describes it as a modern, miniature version of Noah’s Ark. The pod is large enough to hold four adults, floats in water and is made of enhanced fiberglass, which the company says is strong enough to withstand tsunamis, earthquakes, even hurricanes. Breathing holes on top  and a small lookout window add to the comfort.

 ”The more people know about it, the more they will be able to obtain this product according to their needs,” company President Shoji Tanaka told the Associated Press. “This is the only shelter that guarantees protection from any natural disaster.”
