Flatholm Island 5 miles between England and Wales FULL EXPLORE 

This is one of your best explores, really interesting and something not many people have ever done, well done Matt the boat is coming into very good use to make content like this. 😉👍

Blimey Matt I was gripped at the end of that...Jess was like a mermaid at the front 😂🧜‍♀️

You’ve definitely pushed the boat out on this one Matt, what a beautiful little island. Really nice to see the old homes and other buildings. The drone footage is of excellent quality love that zoom lens it’s so good zooming in as it’s flying. Glad you made it back to shore mate keep up your excellent work you do to entertain your viewers 🇬🇧🛸👍👍👍👍

Superb Drone footage and accompanying music Ten out Ten Sir.

Nice adventure 👊 Interesting seeing inside the fog horn

The flat area of concrete at 1:13:40 is rainwater collection to provide fresh water. There is one visible at Hartland Point.

I grew up fishing those waters, your crazy going that far with a little rib like that. Impressive 🤣

Well that was awesome Exploration for sure lots of golden gems for sure .Thanks Matt Secret Vault

Awww man! Wish i was there!

Had a hole Sunday watching "Matthew Williams" bliss baby.....

Looks like Jess got the brunt of the sea she looked a bit damp hair wise lol great video as always well done 👌

Epic Matt, just Epic.

I wondered, if you didn't have so many folk on the boat that there could have been serious problems. An excellent walkabout on Flat holm Island. Aerial view is amazing. Thank you.

Matt That Was Cool As Sheit You Are Stepping It Up Kudos To All!!

Oooo I've always wondered what that island was ❤️ thanks for sharing matt hope your well

Matt I Love your videos! Your drone footage is amazing. Glad the trip ended safely, see ya on the next one!

Some of those paths has been mowed..

Matt your a Big Kid Now Nice Big Boat better than Dora the Expora Yeah I was Working watching now!!!; )really great video Ian would have definitely got Excited over those Golden Gems on the Island!!!; )

What an amazing explore ! I have lived in the area all my life and have spent countless hours gazing out into the channel looking at the islands . Always wondered what was on them . Keep up the good work Matt . 👍

I remember the foghorn all throughout my childhood..... I was born 71. always use to wonder what the noise was. Sometimes it use to scare me. But as I grew into my early teens.... it was comforting sound. Then I heard it wasn’t used any more... I was so sad. Years past. I was working out at wick st Lawrence, delivering paper. In 2002. I swear on my life I heard that familiar sound......... then it could of been a big ship going up the Severn. Yes I do miss it terribly.

Loooov'd it! Two or three of my childhood fantasies and memories all jammed into one explore! The tramping around in fields of flowers on a sunny day, interesting places to poke around, good bits of history for context and a rockin good time on the boat. What's not to love? Well done😎👍

Loved this one! I grew up seeing Flat Holm out in the channel so it was fantastic to see what's it's like over there. What a wonderful place. Caught a glimpse of lovely Clevedon in the distance too!

fantastic explore ...and hi from Ipswich ...nice to see something good came out of Ipswich.

Looks like a good day Matt

That island is amazing, that is so cool how those guns operated being spring loaded. This was an awesome explore my friend.

Wow top day out and you had a hitchhiker coming back

Great Explores,a lot of history to them Islands,great vid.

Another successful mission of the HMS "What, me worry?". But seriously, what was that awesome music playing on the drone footage? Great explore, Matt!

High quality production Matt. Breathtaking scenery and serene music .well done ...

Matt is the music in the drone footage matt? Some really awesome footage. Love your videos as well as the ones with Ian and Chris. Keep up the amazing work you do. Top notch

Fun and games and a bit bumpy at the end on the...."Secret Launch"

Brilliant footage - great boat trip and seeing the sights of Flatholm - not sure about those tides though!! Glad you got the engine going again. 👍

Another great video Matt!love all the content,especially the bunker videos,wish some were closer to me in Ceredigion,i would be straight in em,still some good roc posts around here to explore👌keep the good work up💪

Does tv license people know there’s someone living on flatholm. They be over to check

Good explore Matt

Cool Thanks!

Brilliant vid, always wondered what was on there, cool drone shots too,

Amazing video as always and the articulate narration of facts about your explores are greatly enjoyed and appreciated.

And I use to look from Weston-Super-Mare when on a day trip. Great drone footage. Thumbs up!

Fantastic explore Matt , Keep up the good work , Well done to all , Thanks.

Great video as always Matt, love your drone footage and music too 😉👍🏻

Amazing as always! Been binge watching your channel all day

Fantastic drone work..the whole explore is amazing!! Thanks so much Matt and crew :)!!

I used to work in a starter motor repair shop and I`ve seen the ones on the generators before for hospital back up generators.

Amazing explore ! Loved it, really interesting, lovely scenery ! Smashed it !

Epic work as ever

Serious concentration on your face at the end skipper cracking job keeping it together and getting back safe.

The Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, Canada is well known for its highest tidal bore. The tide comes in so fast that it creates a wake that surfers ride on :) EDIT: Just like Sully Island, also in the Bay of Fundy is an Island called Moose Island. You too can walk out there when the tide is out. If you get stuck there, no problem at all. The people there had built a little cabin for just the occasion :) While you are stuck out there, you may as well go searching for their well-known deposits of amethyst :)

When you guys were inside that Gun Pit . You heard the Gulls squawking outside . For a second I thought Jess was being attacked out there . Happy it was just the Birds .

The wide flat areas, are for water catchment... The small buildings overlooking the low cliffs, were searchlights... Good video

Brilliant work once again matt. I've not watched any of your films and felt my time has been wasted. Wish you could do 3 or 4 films a week. Have you ever felt like your running out of content, interesting explores you know thats going to get viewed and liked? I do wonder how you acquire all of these locations you document for your fans entertainment. Keep it up matt!!!!!!!!!

Great videos as always. Only a slight correction... There is no such place as Amity Island in the US... There is Martha's Vineyard through where they filmed Jaws.. Keep trekking and good stuff!

Great footage interesting all the way to the end .. ⭐👍🤗

This is awesome, i use to look out at flat holm when i was a student at weston college and wonder what was on the island. Perfect.

Your footage is amazing, great shots.

Great video matt loved it

Hey Matt . Very nice . Almost looked like someone was trying to restore it at one time , but was cut short of completion .

that trip back was spoopy, almost looked liek you guys were going under the waves at points

Love the Nubbin Bro . Love thees EXP . Tks

Matt, this was excellent! I was born on an island, my ancestors come from another island, so I’m a water baby. I’m most relaxed around water: river, lake, ocean, etc. soothe me. That island was pretty, so full of explores and history, which of course you were well up on. Exciting trip back, but you got it sorted, no worries! Loved the drone footage too! Thanks for taking us with you 💕✨

Matt was amazing great video to get inside the building that housed fog horn’s as IKS would say? There’s so many Golden Gems to see in hear folks!! like the generations more than just one and seeing the pipelines and the workings equipment to make the horn work must have been brilliant hearing the sound close up and also the drone footage was fantastic see landscape below it was fascinating seeing the diagram of big massive gun that would have moved up and down on it’s firing power I’ve not see that system before until you pointed it out it just goes to show British engineering was far suburb in all of it’s equipment that was ever made and still is today 👍😊

The highest tide in the world is in Canada. The highest tides in the world can be found in Canada at the Bay of Fundy, which separates New Brunswick from Nova Scotia.

Really enjoyed this one matt, secret vault at its finest! good combination of exploring and military history plus a nice bit of banter. Your work is much appreciated! 👍👍👍👍👍

27:53 Some golden gems there folks! 1:09:00 Marconi then went on to make test transmissions between Bournemouth & Poole over to the Isle of Wight

Well done with this explore I enjoyed it.

Really interesting video

Seen this on my old account though I would watch again Nice seeing the old gang together I remember the black boat Protect the President 😂 54:00 📌 The cannons are amazing Glad you all got to land ok

Good work matt I really enjoy your adventures

1st class video to watch thank you take care kind regards from me kenneth😮💖👍

I've only recently found this Chanel and it's fascinating. Well done and sending you thanks and good wishes from West Wales!

Cracking Vid lads

the pumps are compressors to filll the tanks to produce the noise for the fog horn

Watching from barry 👍

It is also the second fastest rising tide in the world.

Matt just upset a shit load of flat earthers lol

Mat this is a fantastic video thankyou!! Like you I have lived opposite these islands all my life, I live on the top of Newport. Have always wanted to see them 😍 You didnt disappoint, and drone footage is outstanding. You have made my mother's day thankyou ❤

Thanks so much Matt, i really enjoyed that video, I have a site in Essex you may be interested in, was run by qinetiq MOD, and looks like its been shut down, a very derelict site on an island with a swing bridge for access, when i find more information about it i will e-mail you, cheers

Mmmm Kelvin K2 Diesel engines. Made in Glasgow. They make lovely narrowboat engines.

SWP stands for safe working pressure on the tanks in the foghorn house

Highest tides are in Bay of Fundy in Canada. Btw. Been to Barry in seventies when they had the locomotive graveyard.

The highest tides in the world can be found in Canada's Bay of Fundy at Burntcoat Head in Nova Scotia. Canada 🇨🇦 look it up.

Great explore. 👍🏻

I live in Burnham on sea and always wanted to check this island out. So awesome you did this. ❤️

Hollow bricks, lighter to transport maybe?

at about 1h13mins you said about the flat area. There is the same type concrete area at Hartland Point light house (North Devon) between the lighthouse and car park, I'm of to Lundy Island tomorrow but will pop down to Hartland Point as Im sure there is a sign explaining it. (I know Im 3yrs late here just blame the algorithm LOL)

yey !!! an adventure 💕defiantly heard a cat 😻 seagull bones, there must be foxes on the island🦊

That drone footage is outstanding fair play. I’ve always wondered what it’s like on these islands. Great video

surprised no ones mentioned it but this island was used as a set piece for an episode of torchwood

Hello Matt, luv your videos mate always a great watch .

What a fantastic video mate thank you for putting the effort in for this 1

Really interesting video as always

Gardner 3 LW Generators, (they do not come any better!).Reavell Compressors + Air Receivers. All top quality kit. The period between each blast identifies the location.

Good one matt enjoyed this one

Really enjoy your channel and all your exploring videos! You’ve inspired me to start my own, I’m pretty new to it and still finding my way. Keep up the great work!!

Such an awesome explore! Don't know if I missed it, but wasn't there a public slipway available?

Quite a bit of mowing done, by the look of it. All the pathways - which would otherwise be overgrown!

Just Bought the STAR Scope...as ive got a 3rd gen NIGHT vision.........THIS island would be great for Night WATCHING STAR gazing......

Time to upgrade. BIGGER BOAT

Love your videos Matt, xx

The month on them two is a disgrace . keep up the good work matt i enjoy watching your uploads and thanks for the entertainment.
