Thank you for the kind words! This is one of my first history videos. I fell down a rabbit hole when I discovered the crazy history behind this random pond!
I grew up in Akron and went to a Goodyear Middle School just across the street from this pond, I used to walk home right by it every day for 2 years. I remember hearing the stories about the train going in the pond 🤣. It always had this creepy vibe when you're around it
As a lifelong Akronite, I’m cringing at the mispronunciation of “Seiberling” in the beginning. Great video though - a piece of Akron history I’ve never heard before. Drove through Goodyear Heights earlier tonight.
Thank you! I know I should have read it myself. The AI voice sometimes pronounces things weirdly. It's funny; a few people have commented on Facebook saying the AI is actually pronouncing it correctly. lol
@@dinklifeusait would be interesting if everyone in Akron has been pronouncing it wrong for the last 100 years! Both of my parents grew up in Goodyear Heights - East High Class of ‘69 and ‘70. I sent my mom this video and she said, “I NEVER TOLD YOU ABOUT BLUE POND?” I can’t wait to hear what she has to say!
One of the best-produced informational videos I’ve ever seen, for real.
It is a nice video for sure.

Worked in Goodyears research building for years and heard many stories about Blue Pond. Great video.
Thank you! I've worked there for 14 years and heard so many great stories - it was a blast making this video.

The pond does have a creepy vibe around it!
Thank you for putting all of this together, this is fantastic, Blue Pond is my obsession.
Thank you so much! I've worked near it for many years and have heard all kinds of crazy rumors about the place. It was a lot of fun making the video!
Having grown up in Goodyear Heights...this is an excellent video
Thank you! We have lived in the area for a long time and found it interesting.
Great vid! Did you shoot that model train vid for this? 😆
@@MattRichardson thanks Matt! No I borrowed that, l should have shot my own stunts.
My favorite DinkLife video to date!
Thank you, and I appreciate the suggestion for sound effects!
This would of been a lot more enjoyable if a real human was narrating it.
@@AngeeMaree thank you for comment! I did think of voicing it, maybe next history video we will voice it.
The Original Middlebury Cemetery is on Newton St.
Very interesting, it’s wild how it’s changed.
@DinkLife That is my hometown I pass by this pond many of times.
Awesome! We work next to the pond!
@@dinklifeusa I know this area very well back of my hands.
