10 Ghost Towns that Could Absolutely Kill You 

He's supposed to stop saying Interim. I'm guessing it's habit by now.

​@@ToptenzNettop10 is this to be taken as confirmation he is the sole host for this channel moving forward? 🥳🥳

​@@ToptenzNettop10you did ask me to share if I was enjoying the content. I said I would. I wish the team all the best in the new year.

At this stage he's earned the title of Presenter, but knowing Karl he's probably still saying at as some kind of defence mechanism against critical Simon fans.

10 years from now, Karl will still be saying he's the interim host. He'll be like Brian Johnson who was the interim singer for AC/DC for decades after Bon Scott died.

Holy jeez, dude! That sounds terrifying!

@@ToptenzNettop10 the things we do for a paycheck!

@@ToptenzNettop10 google us magnesium pollution. You may want to add it to a future story.

That sounds illegal. Like, how is that legal?

Yikes and I got bronchospasm from simply using fuming HCl . Murrica fuq yeah?!?!

He has written some scripts for Simon, so yes he did escape the basement and channel murder Simon.

@Chalky. O . O Simon should make a Casual Criminalist vid about how he was murdered! Simon: "How is this guy so charming?"

I am used to Karl from FF and Simon from TT and a bunch of other works. Love seeing them both here on TT

He rewrote this one too. His writing is on POINT!

@@ToptenzNettop10 yessir

If this does well, we'll do a part 2.

I used to hitchhike, emphasis on the hike, through Hoboken any time I crossed between Barstow and Bakersfield, eerie site, I want to say that where I found a sign that said something to the effect of “The Uranium killed everyone” I can’t remember verbatim but something along those lines

Don't worry.

I've been watching FF for years mate, love your stuff. Own the mispronunciations as you've done in the past. Any excuse for a friendly have a laugh rant must be grabbed and expleted.

nobody cares

That's why we love ya K

Have you heard Simon's mispronunciations?? We're already immune to the cringe ;)

Thanks for the sub! Welcome aboard!

I'll drink to that.

Is that actual trivia?

Yup! They wanted to figure out a way to hide loading new sections of the city and took inspiration from the smoke that Centralia is constantly covered in. That's how we got the iconic ashen fog.

A superfund site I believe.

@@jaded_gerManic Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh! That makes so much more sense lol. Cheers

Part 2?

@ToptenzNettop10 Definitely please!

Using a global database of contaminated sites, toxic hotspots in eight former Soviet countries were analyzed to identify the prevalence, types and sources of toxic pollution, as well as their associated potential public health impacts. For this analysis, polluted sites in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan were compiled and analyzed. The levels of contamination of seven key pollutants were assessed in each country. 424 contaminated sites were identified using data from Blacksmith Institute. Pesticides, lead (Pb), radioactive metals, arsenic (As), mercury (Hg), chromium (Cr), and cadmium (Cd) were the most commonly identified key pollutants. Collectively, these sites pose health risks to an estimated 6.2 million residents. The existing data on toxic hotspots in former Soviet countries likely captures only a small percentage of actual contaminated sites, but suggests potentially severe public health consequences. Additional assessments are needed to understand the risks posed by toxic pollution in the region. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26796744/

Yes, but it's also really, really, really obvious. I'm guessing they wanted to pick some lesser known ones this time around.

@@ToptenzNettop10 Fair enough. I would have thought it would make the top ten of any list though. But if this is actually “ten randomly picked dangerous ghost towns” and not “the top ten dangerous ghost towns”, well, then I can see picking some less well known places.

Not returning. Simon and the channel owner amicably parted ways months ago.

Simon has moved on. You should to.😊❤
