watch part one first here: • Secret Tunnels Under C... in part 2 we explore even more tunnels and a few more buildings including an old Laboratory! for even more backrooms check out: • Backrooms Level Found ...
I worked in tunnels just like these for year at a military base. It's crazy to think how much concrete was used to build these tunnels not to mention the thickness of these walls.
@@BreezeLive98 When was this? The stone age? people have been calculating their constructions for thousands of years. Are you talking about a stone hovel?
Ive been living in an abandoned area of a large government building for 7 months. Even managed to turn on the power and made a hidden pull cord to unlock and open the door to my area. I have a full on sewing shop and computer studio in here, a full kitchen and living area. 2 months ago I found the room for the water pump and breaker panel for the water heater and was able to get the washrooms working and a shower assembled with drainage. 90GB cell plan and I pretty much figured out free rent/electricity. SO far caught by security 4 times but never when I was already in my spot, and they didnt seem to care as I'm not a junky and thought I was just exploring. Really makes me wonder what other epic areas people have found and made their own.
We met a guy with pants made of like 50 different scraps of other fabrics and he said he made a home under this tree by the riverbank that had roots that formed a shelter. He was kicked out of there but he climbed up into a billboard and it had a power receptical up there so he was able to charge his laptop and live up there for a good while
7:55 this one, this one is the place that has the most Backrooms vibes. It's not just an empty abandoned place, but the way it was built gives you the feeling that this is out of place.
It's like you entered the lobby of an abandoned hotel. It's familiar, you've been in hotels a lot of times, and obviously there's a door that leads to outside. But then you know that you're underground. Also the windows make it even more unsettling because it shows that there's an entire network of hallways and a bunch of other rooms. This big, expansive space gives you the illusion of being free from tight hallways and gives a sense of freedom, but you're still underground, probably nowhere near freedom
Having done inspections in facilities like this when they're still in tact, always think twice about sitting in wheel chairs. 100% chance they have been defecated in.
blows my mind that facilities like the ones they explored are just abandoned one day. They didn't even bother to sell or remove most items. It really makes me realize that if things went south tomorrow everything is going to be like this place in the blink of an eye. Also reminds me that even the most sophisticated equipment isn't worth anything if there isn't a use or anyone knowledgeable to use it around anymore. Couldn't help but be a little sad seeing all that amazing laboratory equipment/supplies just rotting in that plant... (Also scared the shit out of me when they started messing with that igniter... they could have easily started a fire (or worse) if any volatile chemicals or gases had been leaking from any of those supplies. Those sparks are thousands of degrees from that igniter and if they land on anything soaked in fuel or if any flammable gas is around they will ignite it) For sure someone could have made good use out of all that equipment. There was some very expensive equipment in that manufacturing plant just slowly turning back into dust...
Yea, i see several buildings like this ,basicly abandoned here in my city. Leaving equipment ,furnishings,items etc. inside . My theory is it will cost to demolish and haul away because a few have become hazardous because of toxic materials used in building structures and maintenance back then. Maybe it will eventually become less toxic if its just left standing instead of filling a landfill and contaminating an area or possibly ground water over time?
@@jajajajenny6428 Yea i noticed a bottle that was opened and the guy sort of sniffed /inhaled by his nose. Not knowing what type of chemical and contents, thats dangerous to do. I'v never handled that amount of mercury . And seems with a bottle or many bottles laying around like that ,with anybody access in that building , it could be an accidental or deliberate contaminated area by someone not careful there.
This is something very American that I never heard of here in Germany: A whole factory, just abandoned with all the stuff still inside, even with a working power connection. Crazy!
German here. We have a lot of abandoned factorys and coal mines and even old nuclear power plans. With machines and documents in them. Just look up some german youtubers doing lost places.
This is the most backrooms thing ive ever seen. Just fresh clothes surrounded by what looks like a giant room with windows in the walls and lights way up in the ceiling.
We have tunnels under the University of Texas here in Austin, but all the well-known exits have been blocked off for years now. There is an old collection of photos from the tunnels, and they seem extensive, and beautiful. One day I might work up the courage, or I’ll find out about another entrance.
Try maintenance buildings they will have the last remaining entrances I work for a University in Michigan as a grounds keeper we have tunnels like this under our campus. They carry, electric, gas, network and in the past they served as steam tunnels, the steam was used to heat buildings. Our tunnels still get used to run networking lines and for maintenance staff to move freely during busy hours and bad weather. Almost every building can be reached underground and I never need a coat in January. Word of caution the voltage present on some of these lines can be lethal and we will press charges for trespass if you are caught. I'm assuming your staff would do the same.
This looks like it could be a level of the backrooms. Especially when he shone a light down that dark corridor at 8:42 gives you the feeling as if the building extends indefinitely. Great video!
i'm not suited to this, i'd bring a large backpack and loot all of those stuff like in escape from tarkov, search every drawer and cabinet and eventually get caught for trespassing and burglary.
It’s was crazy to see the building. I’m in the Army it’s so easy to recognize abandoned gov facilities. The Army here in the States certainly has a “just build a new one” attitude
Timestamps For the Locations: 0:00 Pipe Dreams 3:32 Boiler room 4:05 Flooded Basement 7:15 Abandoned Hospital 8:02 Liminal Hotel 8:35 Dark Hallway 10:43 Hotel Window 11:38 Library Edit: Thanks for those likes
Also all that clothing in the rack in that specific portion, not to mention the room with clean children toys and table, something is definitely going on
Yeah... All this time has passed and no clarification has been made on WTF that was... They were walking in a abandoned place, tunnels, factory looking sht and then, all of the sudden, they open a portal to another place. A clean hallway, lights are on, air-conditioned is on too, you have many rooms.... and they just leave.
@@CeceliPS3 yeah and there was a fire extinguisher on the wall when they walked into the fully lit and pristine hallway, I was screaming at my screen for them to check the dates on the card on the fire extinguisher because they are supposed to be checked several times per year, if the date was recent then it would have been clear if it was a building still in use.
Possibly exposing the room to combustable fumes/ maybe coming across a room thats already flooded with them + picking up the think that makes giant sparks = a possible big surprise for everyone
This place is amazing. So incredible to see the inside. I managed find out where it is and did some reading and the place has quite the colourful backstory as a lunatic asylum. A very long backstory I hasten to add dating to the mid 1800's. Its incredible the amount of things left perfectly in tact. A not so fun fact is that on the total former estate, there are thousands of unmarked graves where they buried the countless mentally ill patients they served over the years.
It would be good if some one made a video explaining everything, conspiracy, history and cover ups, I want the dirt. Leaves way to much mystery needing solving...
It was a state prison and hospital complex that mostly closed in 2008. If you watch in the first video you can find enough info to find out exactly what this place is. Some parts have buildings that have been remodeled and repurposed as medical facilities, food banks and nursing homes. Much of it is abandoned. I didn't see anything particularly weird about it. Looks like a few attempts to use the space for something (clothing donations) and lot of neglect from the state government of old buildings that would be too expensive (asbestos, lead paint, ADA) to clean up or tear down. An awesome explore though!
Fell down a rabbit hole trying to find when that bottle of Double Cola at 2:48 may be from. It looks like Double Cola came in that style of bottle in the 1950s, meaning that bottle may have been sitting there for 70 years or so. Which likely dates those tunnels and adjacent buildings to that era or before. I could certainly be mistaken, but that's what my brief foray into the world of vintage soda bottles revealed. Oh, and that bottle is worth about $20 on eBay. Edit: Dr. Pepper can at 5:19 is probably 1965-1975 and worth about $10. I tried to find a date for something in the vending machine at 11:25 but didn't manage to get anything. If anyone has more success, let me know.
That's really cool! I'm from the UK but find anything like that fascinating despite zero chance of ever being in the same country! We didn't get 'double cola' here but the Dr Pepper can was instantly recognisable. Awesome!
The vending machine stuff was pretty recent. I saw on the bottom one item called “Big Texas,” which is a large cinnamon roll. They’re relatively recent.
There is a monastery that was rebuilt in 1921 I believe. It is located in Spokane Washington, and there are alot of tunnels & room's under it. I explored it when I was a kid, but was afraid of getting lost. I would love to go back.
I wonder where that is. I know there's a lot of tunnels downtown and a lot are filled in or blocked off. The Steam Plant has/had a map of underground tunnels. Not sure if it's still there.
That large room at 7:55 is the common area, or "rec room" where the insane/incarcerated people can wonder or roll around like zombies. Notice the segmentation (tall walls). That is to separate the "patients". (perhaps higher risk/lower risk or male/female) All the windows on all floors surrounding it on all sides are hallways with rooms (cells really) opposite the indoor windows. The different floors likely housed "patients" of different medical needs/temperaments/sex. There is probably a floor dedicated to medical care. The reinforcements on the interior facing windows speaks volumes. This facility could likely "house" hundreds of "patients". The room with the flasks and mercury is very curious. I, as well as other people in the comments would have loved a more thorough examination of the rooms/paperwork/books etc. However I can believe I can confidently say this particular facility is meant for long-term/permanent care of insane people, perhaps not criminally, and perhaps including experimentation.
@@BillyCrystal-hc5jp Also of note is the thickness of that center dividing wall in the center "rec" room. It's very wide so it's probably an enclosed corridor from one side to the other
makes you wonder how many huge empty buildings are out there that you pass by in your life. secret abandoned spaces just out of sight. these places always capture stories, and I love to see architecture like that. 1950s design beautifully preserved. for sure that place would have been supremely creepy if the lights weren't on though.
I know in Greensboro NC there's a HUGE empty textile mill that's popular with urban explorers. I know a few years back they were working on gradually subdividing and renovating it for residential, commercial, and office space. I know at the time must of the place was still empty, I don't know how much progress they've made with the plans
@@ExtremeHardcoreGamer they aren't electric lights, they are transparent plastic coverings, or frosted/ slightly transparent glass coverings and light is diffused through it.
My thought exactly on the backrooms - cheers! PS - the books were part of the law library - every prison is supposed to have one so inmates can pursue their cases, etc. And no doubt someone mentioned the tunnels are mainly for steam pipes: all those old places were heated with steam, hence the huge boilers where the tunnels started. Imagine the size of the fuel bill for that complex in winter!
The elite rich people who own these places or did don't have to pay for things like normal people. They work together like some hive of evil creatures. Make people pay for electricity when it is free in the atmosphere and they know and have a bunch of tech
Well done! Enjoyed your video! You checked off the whole checklist! [ ✓ ] No hard hats or other PPE [ ✓ ] Faces reasonably visible for future identification. [ ✓ ] Open random chemical containers bare-handed. (possibly mercury - good stuff!) [ ✓ ] Climb rusty ladders and scamper atop rusty dubious catwalks. [ ✓ ] Play with the fire-starter (gas torch igniter) [ ✓ ] Enter areas with possible lead paint and asbestos [ ✓ ] Touch everything.
@@agentk3388 For now. I love these guys, but we'll probably be seeing them on Mr. Ballen's Places You Can't Go and the People Who Went Anyway in the coming years.🤷♂
This is probably the closest to the Backrooms we're ever going to get in real life. Only thing missing was some Xori or Instupendo playing softly in the background.
DUDE! You guys are living my dream! I love to go just explore random abandoned places but i can’t find that many in my area. You guys keep giving me inspiration and an endless supply of day dreams about what could be under my feet. Thanks for the vid!
Me too. I have spent a lot of time looking for this kind of stuff. Plus the unique salvage. No way I wouldn't have grabbed that mercury and the laboratory glassware just sitting there abandoned.
Right? I'm like I don't care about your wheelies. A library or something? Oh what is this place I have no way of knowing. I'll just crawl over these books and look for some clues.
I paused the video and saw Annals of Internal Medicine and annual scientific journals spanning over a decade. A biochemical lab or biochemical production facility I'd eager.
I have a chronic phobia of spiderwebs. Not the look of them per-say, but the idea of being near them and the chance of being touched by them. You are doing whats normally impossible for me.
@@rocketg4360 It's not a lab nor is it for a bunsen burner. It's a water treatment testing facility within the boiler plant for the boiler water treatment. No water has to be heated up to test for those chemicals. The ignitor is for a ox/acet torch to solder or cut metal.
WOWWW, i was so excited for this second part and it did not disappoint at all. i loved it as always ! also oh my god we got the cameraman on camera !! yessss ! love y'all
The problem with tunnels, they are often filled with methane, C02 ,etc. A plumbing issue can fill them instantly with sewage, grey water, natural gas, etc.
@@bayersbluebayoubioweapon8477 If you both are thinking about Detroit, it's maybe because of the strangers, like french people. Here in France, as I explore new buldings every weeks, everything is destroyed, absolutely every window is broken, as for lightbulbs, every interesting objects are stolen and walls painted with dicks or stupid things
I wanna know what was going on in the building that had the lights and AC still on in part one. I would of atleast explored quitely until I heard sounds of activity. It was strange watching them go from those tunnels to that clean white hallway with the lights on. Probably some secrets to be discovered there.
I looked around Google maps near the prison they were at (saw the name of the prison in a frame) and there are several buildings around that are likely suspects. Georgia state veterans home being one of them, the probation offices another. Theres also a nursing home nearby but I don't think that's as likely as the others
@@ThePopopotatoes The thing is though, no one was there. They did look around a bit but no one else was around. Plus its like right in the middle of/between all these broken down buildings. City probably keeps a little part of it/that specific building with power and maybe some staff to make sure people dont come through? Cause yeah, the floors were VERY clean compared to the rest. Could be a number of reasons tbh.
the emergency exits all worked and I saw at least one fire extinguisher intact on the wall, it was definitely some kind of facility still in use. Tripped me out the first time I saw part one when they ended up in there I'm like ok they just went through a wormhole^.^
“Alright nothing much going up there so we’re back on the first floor” *3 rugged explorers emerge in the most stylish 2 piece suit jackets humanity has ever seen*
I don't know about the hospital in this part, but the prison in part 1--which also used to be part of the hospital--is actually an available location to lease for filming. if you look up Rivers South Prison you can see it is listed by the Georgia Film Office (note that georgia has a robust tv/movie industry)
@@SeeYouSpaceCowboy---. Yeah, you’re stealing a lot of our film location money from here in Hollywood. That’s California’s fault though… The Democrats here have destroyed the state. In REALITY, California went for TRUMP in 2020, as did most places…
I'd love to go exploring with these guys ,I'd love to go to these underground areas finding hidden underground old homes long forgotten, I live in Halifax NS and I don't have anything like this here ,I'd love to go to old cities underground
Always amazes me with places like that that it looks like one day everyone was like yup never returning and everything that is there will be there forever.
naw, they don't find out jack chit..................just run around, spin around so you cannot see anything.......I mean, crappers, just put the camera on a rope and twirl it around your head...
Hahaha, The Walking Dead, my thoughts exactly! Super cool exploration of the tunnels and the dilapidated building. Your cameras capture wide angles and all surrounding areas quite clearly. I love this! Awesome, guys!
I used to explore abandoned buildings and drainage tunnels all the time when I was younger. I was always coming home covered in dust and cobwebs. Good times.
the sparky thing yall were playing with is used for igniting a cutting Torch.its a Flint spark.verry cool video guys I would love to Explore places like this.
that place is HUGE!!!! I would love to explore. Funny you mentioned the walking dead I was thinking the same thing. What a cool place. I wonder what it was all used for?
This was my question as well. All of a sudden they go from underground passageways to into huge open rooms and they edited it all out. No sense of transitioning. I got confused how they went from an industrial site to a hospital.
Really enjoyed this! I’ve welded steam pipe in tunnels under chapel hill university in NC that we’re from the 1930’s it was a cool experience although it was summertime and one million degrees in there lol
Pretty sure the building that you got into the tunnels from was probably like the local steam heating plant. Making steam for use in the connected building for heating water and heating in general.
Total mental hospital vibes in the last location. Doesn't the flooded facility look like a water treatment facility or maybe a power facility? Some of those boiler were more than two stories tall!
Guessing from other comments its an ex psych ward. Could be that they used the facility after for storage? Many of the old buildings that still run electricity and arent in use are repurposed and used as general storage or for telecommunication. Seems like they either used the space for donation clothing, or its the clothing that was used on patients, or its from dead patients.
Are these places just abandoned? Weird that such large complexes become completely useless after awhile. Interesting to watch to say the least. Keep up the good work man!
that lab room had probably thousands of dollars of perfectly good lab-grade glass just sitting there. and if they're having trouble lifting the mercury, that bottle has to be over 5 pounds, so that's like $1k retail at least.
Make sure y’all wear some sort of filtration device when inside those areas. As you said brother it looked like asbestos on the ceilings and y’all found hella mold. Just be safe guys 🙏 thanks for the upload
This is amazing! Wish you read the book titles though and showed more clothes. One person should have a camera with an extremely wide Zero-D lens like a 6mm. It'd be nice to see more of the spaces.
I almost screamed when it cut to guy just sparking up after opening a beaker that was “fuming” and girl just walks around doing it. It was like the best horror movie but it was real so i hated it😂
10:44 that footage belongs in a liminal space video lmao. what a cool place, i wonder what it used to look like when it was in buisness. at first i thought it was some kind of mall or thrift store area.
I wouldn't mind tagging along with you all on one of these explorations one day. I like seeing old industrial equipment in person rather than just reading about it. Makes one really see how no matter what the time period is human beings can create what they need to get the job done. Big huge machines to make massive quantities of things as simple as cookware to things as huge as a tankers propeller. Now machines are tiny enough to fit in our own homes and we can 3D print plastics, laser edge metals, etc... It's awesome to see stuff like these time capsule places.
@@Strype13 it was for sure mercury. we only estimated the bottles weight. it would have been neat to be able to weigh it to see how much it actually was. it wasn't reflective when we first opened the bottle because accumulated vapors were covering the liquid metal. not sure if the vapors were mercury or some other chemical maybe water
@@ActionAdventureTwins Interesting. Neither water, nor mercury would produce any sort of vapor that you guys would be able to smell. There are other dense and/or metallic heavy liquids that actually would produce chemical vapors, however. Some more potentially harmful than others -- thankfully you guys seem to have made it out okay :-)
