We found a way into the underground nuclear aircraft laboratory. We never expected to see this once inside. part one of this explore can be found here: • Underground Nuclear Ai... Our second channel @ActionAdventureClips
Oh cool, you're at the GNARL, or Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory. This operated in the 40s up to the 60s (if I recall), the land was purchased by the city of Atlanta with plans to turn it into an airport. Currently, its a wildlife preserve with several remains like that entrance and a couple other exposed structures, including the "hotcell" building mentioned in a couple other comments. At one point, the bunker went down seven floors, now all flooded due to the areas high water table. Some areas are still slightly radioactive, but it's monitored by state and federal officials. There's also a cave on the property that evidence of past inhabitants living there. Really, a cool place with a ton of history.
thanks for the sharing the location it really gets on my nerves when ppl tht make these vids act all pretentious, like it's good enough for them to visit but won't tell other ppl the location because they seem to think we're all going to trash the places, too many urban explorers on yt are like this when most of us just want to read about the history of the places. And even if ppl did go there... what exactly can they do? trash the place!? these vids tell a story, like a history capsule... we'll show you an old cool bunker but wont tell you where it is or anything else about it because we're special.
When you were looking at the old fuse/conduit boxes at 7:00 mark the creepiness kicked in when I realized the rust level like 3 feet higher than the current water level, so it definitely gets higher when it rains.
@@Willppyro And what about he handprints on the wall? Did nobody notice that? Could've been the other rafters getting stuck from flooding and pleading for their lives...
As someone stated earlier, this place is a real life S.T.A.L.K.E.R game laboratory location. Everything about this place just screams - "you probably shouldn't be here - if you want to live". I was half expecting an electro-phantasms to start chucking wooden crates at you!
Nothing better than trekking out in to unknown areas and discovering ruins or abandoned facilities..would be incredible to get ahold of a few pumps and drain that place out..set up camp nearby to keep everything running. Would love to see how far down it goes. I wonder how long it’s been flooded for.
It's below the local water table, the lab operated pumps when it was active to keep it from flooding, you could not feasibly pump it out unfortunately.
It’s right next to a river. Water table is relatively high there. I’m sure there are schematics or maps. A freedom of info act request might turn up some interesting info.
So my friends dad worked for a naferious secret company known for off the grid laboratories like this one. He said it looks like a class 4 lab that they use for bio weapons virus creations. The deepest levels contain specimens, creatures and possible humanoid cloning test subjects. They always build them below the water table so when they abandon them they simple just flood the lower levels to cover evidence. Bottom floor probably has tons of skeletons. The fact that someone covered up the other entrance with rocks indicates they are still trying to cover up the evidence. 💀
That's usually what water in places underground look like since the water stays undisturbed for so long that silicone and other crap settles. Now they've gone through on kayaks it'll most likely be stirred up again. It's the same thing with cave diving, after diving the water gets stirred up again
@@cheetobambito9724 i think i saw a short video, bro used a gas mask instead of a diving mask and got covered in likely very radioactive water, he was speed running how to get every cancer known to man
If this was a tabletop RPG, I'd be rolling my eyes at all the stuff like the giant rat & deflated raft... stereotype tropes. Or the start of a horror movie or bad dream. But this is real. Real scary.
Hey guys! I just wanted to share some news with you. I have joined the local caving grotto in my area and my group is getting access to a huge cave that nobody has been in about a 2 or maybe 3 years, Because the cave is gated off. I'm just super excited about it and all the other huge caves I will now have access to in the future. I just wanted to let you and everybody else know how much you have inspired me with your videos to become the explorer/ caver I am now. But as always, awesome video! And stay safe bros.
It was rusty brown, real blood dries like that...kinda concerning. I’m just hoping somebody cut their hand on a piece of metal and was like “let’s scare the next people and leave handprints all over the place”
Water level rises and lowers enough to occasionally circulate and flush the air. Just remember every time it floods, slightly radiated air is being pumped into the atmosphere.
I don’t think the change in water level will flush heavy gases unless the water occasionally pours out the top. Heavy gases settle in low points, like near the surface of the water. Maybe I’m missing something and they’re totally safe but since the consequences of being wrong are death I’m going to steer clear.
@@seabeepirate that's a very good point, I may have said that all gasses would have been vented but I could be wrong. But I don't think I would be to bad of an issue with how long it's been abandoned and repeatedly flooded.
This sort of thing is the reason I love eastern europe. Usually they have bases like this *_everywhere_* and usually they *_aren't_* flooded, usually they're still jam packed full of the original equipment and misc. objects that littered the halls and rooms. One on a channel called Shiey actually had CARS leftover in it, including a Chevrolet that shouldn't have existed in a soviet era bunker. Some even had power in them too, which is totally mental. These should be preserved as relics from a (hopefully) bygone era to serve as an interactive history lesson. This one being flooded is depressing in its own right.
I literally thought this was some kind of crazy realistic cgi pool rooms thing, and was waiting for a jumpscare or for you to get sealed in up until the last second of the video. Everything about this is to creepy to be real. I'm kind of in disbelief that this actually exists.
Yeah no. It's a kind of narrow building, 3 stories deep with a small garage and a tunnel leading to a separate exit that they could drive into. There were no jeeps left underground. All of this guy's made up "we believe..." answers are just exaggerations. This isn't even the reactor area like he keeps claiming. It is a very popular place with a ton of info available online.
The amount of water in there is honestly kinda scary to me, like if a lower level ceiling came down it might create a sudden suction and pull tons of water down, unless the entire building is flooded like that, i can't even imagine how long it would take to pump the water out
It probably wouldn't take as long as you think. Could probably dewater it in one to three days with a couple 4-6" pumps. Main thing would be running the hose long enough to get water away from the pumping site.
Went down a missile silo out in the farm fields in WA. Winding stairs down and around a old elevator with creepy long tunnels way underground and the missile bays were filled with water. To think there were probably nukes down there at one time is crazy
That definitely looks like an elevator shaft to me. It's very interesting how they removed the elevator and most of the doors when they abandoned this place. It seems like they knew that it would flood, and they didn't want any areas to remain intact.
I watched some other urbex dudes explore this whole building, but when they got to the flooded stairwell they had to turn around bc they had no water equipment. It’s cool to see the rest of it now
@16:54 Looks like a service elevator shaft. The way the doorways are framed and have a metal ledger on the edge of the first level to protect the corner of the concrete.
16:00 that room is a cargo shaft, the roof are doors that open to surface level and it allows equipment and supplies to be dropped in on pallets with a crane
When you lower the camera in water, twist the rope a little bit so the camera does a pirouette in water. Excellent to get extra footage. One simple way to make sure it happens right is to hold the rope with one hand at the water level, then pinch the rope with the other hand and use the palm of your hand to hold the rope as you rotate it. Each few twists, you back away the hand and give it space to coil, but still hold it firmly so it doesn't coil up. Once you get enough rotations, release the bottom hand and bam, the camera will rotate evenly, and slowly.
17:19 right before the GoPro hits the bottom, you can see another GoPro straight ahead on the floor , to the left of the door frame. Someone must’ve dropped it trying to see what is down there.
You have made a new fan for life. I never would’ve thought the algorithm would lead me to a random video of a couple duders dropping a GoPro down a pipe, which would subsequently lead me to just possibly the best content on this platform. Much love and safe wishes to you dudes.
I once had a very vivid nightmare involving a partially submerged stairwell that looked almost identical to the one at the very beginning of the video, so needles to say, the rest of this video should be VERY fun for me
It wasn’t the dark ages. But when we did stuff like this nobody but our moms or girlfriends knew about it! Legends got born about places like this. Halogen lights, but my Petzl Duo, the original, worked super good enough. 😂 No cameras though. Those were strictly film.
@@madmatt2024 They also have a geiger counter with them, and while they do mention early in the video the radiation level is elevated, the clicking doesn't sound like Danger Zone Popcorn Clicking.
@@andydufresne1947 it’s water table water and rain water with zero flow, interacting with office materials and scientific lab materials, to include radioactive elements. That makes for a stagnant toxic stew.
How come every time any other group of people referring to themselves as "Ghosthunters" enter a place like this they bust out their "ghost devices" and they beep and blip and blop and it makes it seem like there are ghosts and ghouls everywhere, but when you guys go into places it seems so peacefull and serene.?
Next time you guys should definitely try with a proper boat, nothing special, but something that actually floats, and something that won't break and can carry all of you - like a wider and shallow kayak or a long canoe. Really cool to see all the old equipment and the eerie layout of what once was.
When your lowering the go pro down you should twist the rope when lifting it back up from the bottom because the go pro will spin in a circle and you'll get a 360 view of the area unless it's facing straight down
If you guys ever happen to be in or around northeast Pennsylvania I just found a huge number of cave entrances today one of them is substantially large and the rest of them I didn't get too close because frankly I didn't want to get mauled by a bobcat or bear LOL but if you're ever up this way look me up and I'd be more than happy to guide you there
I had the biggest sigh of relief when you said y'all are wearing masks lol, people like you are my favorite kind of people and unfortunately often times the most beautifully adventurous people just don't care to protect themselves, I'm glad you do :)) no judgement to those who do not, it usually comes from hurt and many of my loved ones are that way lol
Masks are stupid and useless unless you are somewhere dusty or with smoke or paint, and even then, you need the proper kind of respirator, not a paper mask. They are useless, especially for microbe sized fungi.
‘Other Exploring People, ”doesn’t go in to the water and gives up at the start” ,The Twins, “goes in flooded tunnels that fill when it rains with pop-able rafts and full battery’s NOT TO MENTION touching exposed WIRES” I think I made my point of who is the best adventure RU-vidr’s
15:15 , its an old elavator shaft, they had in these days steel elevators. probably goes like 3-4 levels down, i can bet , if you dive there, you will find for sure ww2 stuff :)
@Mike Rice Apparently it is 6 or 7 stories deep, so I don't think anyone will be doing that anytime soon ;) And you would probably have to keep it doing it 24/7 to hold back the groundwater that seeps in, just like some mines.
Idk could try to get the Government on board to preserve it as a historic site or something (I doubt they would they probably would shut everyone out) but it could do some real convincing maybe cause this isn’t that decrepit
If in fact this was an abandoned/decommissioned nuclear lab, or worse yet had an experimental reactor - now way in hell I'd be in there without a geiger counter or radiation meter! ☢️☠️💀☠️☢️
It is a decommissioned nuclear lab. It originally started out where a nuclear powered aircraft was attempted to be developed. After that didn’t happen, it was used to test the effects of radiation on objects.
