I get so lost in looking at miniature scenes. I could stare for hours ! Thanks for sharing!
I always loved seeing the circus train come in and park. It was always where I'd pass it every day on my way to work. Those trains were really cool too!
The last year the circus performed,their train pulled up behind where we lived and stayed overnight while they performed down the road. It was so cool to get a picture.
Thanks Jacob. I’m going down memory lane. I saw the train and the museum years ago.
My father in law lives next door to the art museum he used to work there also!
Love your new intro Jacob. They've always been great but the newest ones for Halloween/Christmas/in general are so perfect.
Hey Jacob! I just want to say that I enjoy your videos so much! They are so entertaining and relaxing to watch and each video is always filled with super interesting content, so much so that I never get bored watching any of your videos, keep up the stellar content!
I've seen that model and the detail is just astounding.
BTW- at 20:32 you mention John "Ripley", which is fine since you understandably spend a lot of time at Ripley attractions. :)
I had won a contest to be "Prince" of the circus back in 1978. Ringling brothers had their show down in St.Pete Florida and Dick Van Dyke was hosting the circus. I got to meet him and ride around with him in a submarine car under the big top. It was a great memory.😁👍
Ca ‘d Zan was the filming location for Great Expectations with Gweneth Paltrow and Ethan Hawke as well ❤️ the marble dock was where she stood at the end with her daughter looking off into the Bay when Ethan walked up, some was filmed on the grounds and outside shots.
22:40 Whatever you do DON'T BLINK!!!!! Great video!
Oh yes!
Nah. If being "touched by an angel" means I get to go back in time and live a happy life (which is all that happens when a Weeping Angel touches you---Ooh, so scary! 🙄), they can touch me.
That bird really was enjoying the” wind beneath his wings “ Jacob 🤣, loved the miniature circus and the Ripleys mansion, wow, thankyou x
I love this !! I miss the circus. I remember seeing the trains heading into Atlanta every year . It was a sight to see . I remember as a little girl getting to go to the circus and I loved all of the beautiful colorful costumes they wore . Thank you for sharing this awesome video !!
What a delightful place. My late grandpa always took me to the circus when I was a kid. I wish I still had the souvenirs.
So cool. I would love to visit one day. Thanks for doing such a great video!
I live in Sarasota. The clown standing by himself is Lou Jacobs with the pointy hat. My Mom made one of his costumes.
One of my childhood memories that always stuck with me was going to see the circus. I had won a coloring contest and got free tickets for my whole family. It was during the farewell tour for Gunther Gebel-Williams, who was the animal trainer for the Ringling Bros. Circus from 1968 to 1990.
That circus miniature was spectacular. The detail was incredible. Those gardens are beautiful , but the house is amazing. I hope you got to see the inside it must have been so wonderful to see. If the outside was that splendid I can't imagine the inside. Thank you I really enjoyed this. Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
I love Ringling Brothers circus I miss Ringling Brothers circus so much
Sad it shut down, I have a certificate I've had pretty much since birth for a free show at any time during my life that will never get used now
This reminds me of Tinkertown in New Mexico. Quirky but a lot of fun and obviously a labor of love
Very cool 😎. Lots of work and time put into that circus 🎪. Cool visit .
Neat! I went to New College, so I am familiar with this wonderful little museum, but haven't been there in years! Thanks Jacob!
That place looks epic. My mom use to take me to the circus when I was a kid. I wish I could have gotten to attend a performance of The Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus. It is very sad that the greatest show on earth is gone for ever.
Love this video .... in the circus heyday . When a big circus came to your area . It was the equivalent of Disneyland coming to your town .
The art museum is everything.
Thanks Jacob!
I totally want to go here now 😀 it’s right up my alley 🤩
Great video😁 I loved the circus when I was a kid, me and my mom would go..I miss the circus sometimes. Keep up the good work 🤘
Cool
I love your visits.
One of my favorite places. Ever.
I was in the movie parker and we filmed a huge scene at Ca d'Zan out back of the mansion on the water.
WOW this was awesome!!! Always enjoy your commentary on places like this!!! So educational & fun 👍✌❤🙂
Amazing!
Cool
Hi and thanks for another great video. My family actually knows someone who is a clown in the museum.
Love your new start..
That is some amazing handiwork of craftsmanship! Trying to imagine the patience it would take!
Even if I'm a German,when I see these wonderfull pictures, I get a little bit homesickness.We miss Florida very much.🇺🇸👍
Hey!! Born and raised in Sarasota, awesome to see it represented on your channel!
Your comment on "sweeping up horse turds" reminds me of the old joke: Bill had told his friends since he was a kid he was going to run away from home and go into show business. One day he did just that and his friends back home didn't see him for years. One day the Circus came to town and they had the big parade with the animals and horses and elephants. There at the back of the parade they saw Bill with a cart with a big bucket, a broom, and shovel, cleaning up the horse and elephant sh&t on the street. They hollered at him and said "Bill! Come on back home! You don't need to be doing that job!" "What??" Bill replied? "And give up show business????".
I remember going to circus world in '76BC. (before carpetbagger). I was owned by Ringling Bros. Great memories.
Near my neck of the woods. Awesome place! I love making a whole day of it whenever I go.
I really wish I was in Florida and not doing online school right now 😔😂
What if you go to a school in florida?
You'l win on both sides
@@Mr_Fancypants no because then you’ll wish you lived in another city. (or state, country, or continent)
I have to go to school 😞
Ahh I remember your channel Quartz you used to upload full Steven universe episodes!
@@kermitdefrog.8332 yeah😄
thank you so much for posting this video, watching it in Ireland,
beautiful museum That locomotives at 1:42 was used in the 1952 moive The greatest show on Earth. it pulled the
the first section of the circus train. May Ringling Brothers rest in peace
The Circus needs to bring back the animals. It's not a Circus without the exotic animals.
I agree with you
I love seeing circus elephant and tiger
Lions and tigers and bears oh my!
Good one
We were just there over the holiday break. It's an amazing place 🙂
What a great place to visit.Thank you for sharing it..
I always wanted to go to this museum!! Amazing video!! Thank you..
thank you Jacob.
The next time you're in Jersey, visit Northlandz. It's a model train museum. It's HUGE. It puts that circus to shame. But make sure you give me a heads up. I'll go too, and pretend im a bystander, so I can meet you.
This is a place I definitely want to check out someday
I live here as well! Used to go to the Ringling growing up!
The miniature circus display used to tour. I saw it at the Cincinnati Museum Center in the early 90's.
hey man , just wanted you to know , I really love your videos. It almost feels like i am in person, visiting these locations. It's been a while since I've been to a museum , let alone a museum , i haven't stepped out since like March 2020. watching your videos kinda make up for that void . It's really cool man 👍👍. Keep it up👍👍
love this. would love to visit there
Beautiful home and grounds and lots of patience creating the largest minature circus.
I've wanted to go here for sooooo long!
I just thought of this. You should go ( well not right now, maybe in the summer) to Washington DC. They have so many museums and interesting sites. Maybe do a whole week there. Or Williamsburg lots of history and interesting things.
You should go to the car museum right across the Street.
Stay healthy Carpetbagger!
Wow u are here.. I live downtown Sarasota. Be sure to check out downtown too
This is a spectacular video. I loved this. Thanks Carpetbagger.
Hi bro Happy New Year, huge fan of ur Channel. Just love the places u visit, this is definitely my bucket list to one day have a holiday in the U.S. God Bless on ur journey🙏😊
Hi Jacob awesome vlog at the Ringling Brothers Museum. Stay well and safe 👍🏻😺
Seeing the miniature tents makes me wanna watch Todd Browning’s “Freaks” which I’m gonna do immediately after your video ends
I love the new intro!
WOW, someone went to a lot of work putting all those miniatures' together but it is interesting.
I can remember going to Florida when I was a kid and going to Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bailey Circus museum it was great, and as you say that was the performers home base. So if some of the performers were not on the road they had daily performances there. I still have my old pennant from there. Is or was there another place as well down there in Florida?
That was interesting to see. I didn't like seeing animals dressed as other animals though. I don't like seeing them in cages either but, they had to have a way to transport them from show to show and keep them somewhere between performances. I'm sure they did the best they could. Circus life is hard for everybody involved.
Non-humans, outside of maybe dogs, house cats, and horses, should have never been in circuses to begin with.
Thank you for providing us all with quality content to enjoy while locked in our boxes.
Hi carpetbagger I’m a huge fan and I’m also going to Florida in a week. I was wondering how long you are going to be in Florida?
6:11 A Sea Elephant is also known as an Elephant Seal.
8:06 got me cracking up so much. youre so funny ngl lol
Twenty years ago, at wee five years of age, I saw the circus elephants bathing in the river here, in Portugal.
I'm not really a big fan of any circus, but I will give some credit for the modle built one.
I miss the side shows they used to have at the York Fair in York Pennsylvania. They stopped around 2012. Very disappointed.
I was there a few years ago. I liked their huge collection of circus wagons and artwork (Posters)
Carpetbagger there will need to be another ' NO POLITICS' edition of the extended chat this week.
Wow! That's a big circus right there. I would like to go to this place and learn about the history of the Circus. I saw this documentary on Netflix about circuses. It was a PBS documentary talking about the history of the Circus and how it ended. The Circus industry ended because we had movies and TV shows. We no longer needed the circus. We had other types of entertainment. Still, I wish we still had them. I would have them without the exotic animals though because I don't want to take animals out of their natural habitat. Only domestic animals will do. Well, thanks for sharing! Have a great day! Oh, and Happy New Year!
I was intrigued by the Knoxville references so I looked it up. The mini circus was first shown to the public at the 1982 worlds fair, although I don't know if he had any connection to the city. The white lily flour sign is a little bit of a deep cut Knoxville reference.
I love circus and sideshow freak and the rodeo
Did a little google search on 17:39. George and Willie Muse, called Eko and Iko, also referred to as Ambassadors from Mars. Yeah, that's a rough story. Kidnapped it is believed and forced into shows.
I went there four years ago it was so stunning
I remember going to a Ringling amusement - like park in or near Orlando back in the 1980’s. Wonder what happened to that?
1980s* Apostrophes aren't used for plurals.
I know this is a really late reply but since no one answered yet... the park closed in the mid 80's, they built a baseball stadium on the site which was used until the early 2000's, then everything was demolished and now there's a bunch of retail stores.
I was hopeing you entered and the Grestest Show would be blasting at you as you entered. Lol
There's 2 university's directly adjacent to this place and the parties are INSANE.
First, it's "universities." Second, apostrophes aren't used to make plurals.
The circus 🎪 brilliant some work in this the size of it well set out never seen a model so big 👌
Best model !
Amazing miniature circus!!
Many of the acts displayed in the miniature big top are based on real Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey acts as depicted in te movie "the Greatest Show on Earth" starring Charleton Heston.
Good to know the pee trough hasn't gone out of fashion. Things change but men will always love peeing into a trough. Idky, dont ask lmao
Hey Jacob, I live in the Tampa bay area and I really hope while you were there you went and seen the Ringling house as well. If you get the opportunity you need to see the "Coral Castle". Love watching all your videos. Stay safe out there. 🌴😎🌴
Here after the live stream 😂
Have you ever been to the Royal Drumheller Museum in Alberta Canada?
It was a fun 🤩 circus 🎪 back in the day
That ZITTTT tho...🤣
I didn't realize until this morning, I was not subscribe to your channel anymore.
This has been happening alot.
I lose the channels I'm subscribed to and they are replaced with other channels I did not subscribe too.
I hate the world....
The museums in Washington are all free.
That mansion is beautiful is it still in the Ringling family or just used as tourist attraction?
Is that the same model that used to be displayed at the Citrus Tower?
