10 Most Insanely Protected Homes On Earth

6. Maximum Security Mansion

From the air, the wonderfully titled "Maximum Security Mansion" in Evergreen, Colorado looks like something from Beauty & The Beast rather than a real house. Bizarrely literal name or not though, the place is real, and it's one of the most heavily-protected buildings one could imagine.

The mansion's security system is worth $6 million alone, and it patrols the 32 acres of land around the house as well as the central building; interestingly, anyone with an iPhone can log into the building's security network and have a look around the CCTV system. All you'd need is permission from the mansion's security team.

It's a pretty weird idea, especially considering how security-conscious the complex appears to be.

By far the most impressive piece of security is a world-class thermal imaging suite that can isolate and trace individual fingerprints within 20 minutes. That means anyone who does decide to roam around unauthorised would struggle to get out of sight before being headhunted.
