I apologize in advance if anyone posted this, but as someone who enjoys a good storm, I'm envious of this dude. To be in the midst of a potential history making hurricane while in your home has to be a GOAT experience. I'm sure his crib is built strong enough to withstand the brunt of the storm. Then again, he might be playing with fire.
Richard Branson to ride out Hurricane Irma in wine cellar
Specifically, the billionaire Virgin founder plans to brave the worst of the powerful storm in his wine cellar.
"We are expecting to get the full force of the hurricane in around five hours' time, when we will retreat to a concrete wine cellar under the Great House," Branson
wrote Wednesday.
Branson described the eve of the storm as "a night of howling wind and rain." He added: "The atmosphere is eerie but beautiful."
Branson is not alone on Necker Island. He was joined by "a great group of young people," who played games and slept in two rooms.
"I haven't had a sleepover quite like it since I was a kid," Branson said.
