- Fly over the mansion William Randolph Hearst built and George Bernard Shaw deemed, "The place God would've built if he had the money."
From the Show: Aerial America: California bit.ly/2yrnkjB
Hearst Castle and the grounds are so beautiful. The drive down from Monterey is spectacular. I'm so thrilled I was able to see such a wonderful place.
I've lived on the other side of the Ring of Fire since 1980 and still have yet to go. Now closed due to Covid I may be able to at least fly safely around the grounds without any problems. I guess that's one positive from a negative.
my kindergarten class at my school in Compton called Little Ben we visited this castle on a school trip event. I'm 53 now and when I saw this video it was like time was frozen. GOD is amazing. REMEMBER the TIME. Memories!!!
Is gorgeous; the weather, the castle, the guest houses, is an enchanted mountain 🏔
This is the first video I've seen that shows the castle in its surrounding landscape. The closeup of the pool and all that is nice, but the setting of the castle in the mountains and ocean is amazing.
"What shall it profit a man if he should gain the whole world but lose his soul?"
The world exists. The soul unlikely exists.
Gammareign, I pray that you will believe on the LORD Jesus Christ.
@@Jemalacane0 you should listen to Ian mc cormick NDE
In his last years, Hearst boosted Billy Graham's career by leaning on his newspapers to write about him.
@@Jemalacane0 Well, soul can also possibly be a metaphor,r meaning life.
The people die, their houses live forever to tell their storys to the visitors. I love houses, especially old ones with a history!
Incredible! Time and time again the powerful build this great castles or palaces and they hardly ever end up living there, and if they do just like William Randolph Hearst died before it is completed
If you're in the San Simeon area of California, it's well worth the stop to take the tour.
I when there like 5 years ago .is very beautiful
I love the history of it all and the beautiful mansion .
Me and my wife absolutely love this place
Wish I could swim in that pool
I agree
Incognito Vape reviews the staff does once a year ..my two kids got too because their friends dad worked there
I do too Jose Guerrero, I have been on 3 of the tours on 3 different occasions! That pool was built to hang into a concrete hole. The architect was named Julia and she was so intelligent that she built the pool so it could sway during an earthquake and it has a Ancient Grecian look. Hearst went to Europe and bought 1/3 of the world's antiquities and brought to his castle!! There is another pool indoors and it has lapis blue and gold small tiles. Everywhere you see gold at Hearst Castle, it is REAL gold!!!.
That's what I was thinking also
I stood on a hot summer's day, looking at the pool; I asked the tour guide what if I 'accidently' fell into the poo. He replied I would go to jail. I pondered it for a few moments and... almost...
It would be amazing if someone had the $ for a private party and invite inner city children and feed them all . Maybe someday places like this can help people heal just by the beauty of the sea and tranquility of the gardens . Imagine the creativity that could be sparked in a child if this was donated as a home for homeless or abandoned children . I know it'll never happen but I think it's a nice thought . ❤️
Why would you assume "inner city" children want to go there? Stop being PC what you mean is ",poor blk and brown" children. Believe it or not it is not the goal of every poor black and brown persons goal to be where white people are. Get over your white savior complex already.
I am going to buy this one day.
No thx. Go buy castles in India. Leave American homes to Americans.
No working class person can ever make this much money. Don't delude yourself into thinking this economic system has upward mobility.
I got to go inside yesterday
Hearst Castle is so enormous, we had to take to the skies to appreciate its grandeur.
Enjoy this tour from Aerial America: California bit.ly/1v5LtBx
Gee... I just watched this :)
My local radio station had a comedian who's married to Lydia Hearst and I'm fascinated with that family now, like if the Kardashians didn't have a reality show I'd probably be fascinated with them too😂
Are you referring to Chris Hardwick?
Saw it yesterday. It was truly a sight to see
While Hearst Castle is impressive in terms of architecture and location, the interior and furnishings came off as a monument to excess and a lack of any real taste; the random acquisition of things for the sake of owning them. The haphazardness with which treasures are deployed at the mansion suggest no real style or concept. Just a kind of gluttony for the sake of gluttony that says nothing more profound than, "Look what I could by with a lot of money!" The ornate grounds and structures, designed by someone OTHER thant W.R. Hearst, were much more pleasing to a tasteful eye than the clunkily-deposited riches inside the home.
👏👏👏👏👏👏 Glad I'm not the only one to think this.
To be honest alot of super rich people back in the early 20th century also had excessive tastes in the US, Canada and the UK. Buying up alot of art and artifacts from europe middle east asia etc to then be in there houses and manors.
I think there are others that were excessive like the Ford family with Henry buying up historical buildings to then be put in Greenfeild village and Edsel ford house. Even the Vanderbilt Bitmore house that place though beautiful is excessive in size and decor.
Theres a few that wernt all that excessive like william burrell (burrell collection) the Frick collection and lightner museum. Theres also vizcaya and flager museum in Florida
went acouple days ago and man was it awesome! the mysteries..
Would Love ❤️ To Go There
W R Hearst virtually sabotaged Orson Well career.
So lovely!
This is what every hoarder house would look like if they were rich and could afford an architect
He forget the part where the zebras are still there and roam free !
I'm inclined to think that Orson Welles called it about right. Looks like a ridiculously gaudy hodge-podge of stuff, accumulated by a guy who had no qualms in starting a war in order to sell newspapers and make more money.
now this is camp: notes on fashion
Seth Tyrssen no he was actually very humble and gave to pple learn your history before you talk on a man who’s dead ty .
Sueann Valenzuela humble?? Haha. That's funny
Newspaper tycoon William Hearst called this California mansion home. Here's a fact from #AerialAmerica that puts its size into perspective: it was once half the size of Rhode Island. Check it out: bit.ly/1v5LtBx
I thought it still was. What, did it shrink or something? Or did Rhode Island expand?
Went there with my Fam. Cool place worth the visit !
Growing up, Hearst's mother called him "wasteful Willy".
Those words proved prophetic.
what would be the monthly mortgage payment for financing this???
I think I may have to work a second job to make the payments... LOL
There's a very small airport and the estate has its own fire station.
I have been here a long long time ago :)
William Randolph Hearst new worth: William Randolph Hearst was an American newspaper publisher who had a net worth equal to $30 billion at the time of his death (after adjusting for inflation).
Is very nice 👍🏻 castillo
I wish they would take this as Wayne Manor in Batman
Mag-nate
Gah! What a nice house.
I’ve been there and it’s gorgeous but I Wyandotte’s to swim in the pool
It is also interesting in a “meetoo” context. They could not refuse to go and they could not leave ...
I should live there...hmm
Patty Hearst Net Worth: Patty Hearst is an American Heiress, socialite and actress who has a net worth of $50 million. Patty Hearst has earned her net worth as a granddaughter of American publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst.
No shyt Sherlock. Everyone knows who she is. And take out the word "earned". She has "earned" NOTHING. She was GIVEN everything.
16,000 for a party!?! I would want to do that.
Something to do when this stay at home thing is over
I come from the future, and you're not gonna believe this.
When I was there I was thinking Hearst would rolling over in his grave knowing knowing me and my black family are walking around. I made it a point to sit in his dining room chair.
I will sale it
And like always, it's Orson Welles' plight but not Mankiewicz' that they talk about, even though the latter wrote the screenplay for Citizen Kane.
It is weird how the powerful Narco, build similar structures, even zoos. Too much power make people behave like gods, look at the S0r0s, R0thsch1lds, r0ckefeller. Although he was more similar to Robert Maxwell, Guislaine Maxwell's father
Nice.
16 k for a party?
im in
Yes, I am in! ;)
this monster caged a grizzly bear, a tiny little cage, Monarch stuck, in it for 22 years
David Niven said of his dinner parties wine flowed like glue😄
Like glue? 😂😂😂 That’s gross 😂😂😂
@@henrylivingstone2971 I think what he meant was the guy was a bit stingy with the pouring of the alcohol.
@@sharongill9067
😂😂😂 Ah I see 😂😂😂
No alcohol was allowed
@@dannyjones558 miserable auld git he seemed..
He goofed. He should've built magnificent hotels and resorts at the finest beaches around the world. He could've also built the biggest museum in the USA.
Nais
Starting a go fund me who’s tryna chip in on throwing a party at Hearst castle ? 😂😂
Wrong . His guest arrived by plane There is a runway on the grounds I’ve seen it.
Bones and Xavier wulf shot a music video here
Which video?
Hello I have a new Hearst Castle song....Greg
I swear I have seen this clip before but with a different narrator.
Went as a kid and thought it was spectacular, then recently went as a 40s adult and thought WTH he didn’t setup a trust to take care of it and wants ME to support it with a membership now?! Oh for f sake. 😂
cool
The castle
I see Mr Hearst liked his Homes like he liked his Newspapers : All style, but no substance..
William Randolph?
Yes
Xanadu
One day I will be as wealthy as Hearst trust me;)
The Pirate me too ;)
I believe in yall
It’s good to have goals in life..I bet you can .
It looks like a church 😭😂
How is this man related to Hunter Hearst Helmsley?
Imagine bringing your tinder girls here sheeesh
This is a guesthouse for Biltimore Estate?
lafkdjay no
Other way around.
@Naughtysauce Yes, I was joking. I'm very much aware that Biltmore is much larger that Hearst Castle. As a native of California though, I do have to stick up for "The Ranch". ;)
$16,000 is pretty cheap!
Rosebud.
Ah, it was just the beginning of corporate power in America.
Kangaroos?
While the subject is good there are much better videos worthy of your time.
This is just a series of drone shots.
What if it was still in the family?🤔
They own the land and has probably built something better.
humble???
Edith Lemus yes he actually was ..study the history first please
Rosebud cote
bad location... Santa Barbara would have been spot on
Noice
So is this place haunted ?
Star buono it has church idiot
@@boredpandatv1214 There are many haunted churches out there you idiot.
@@boredpandatv1214 a church doesn't mean a place can't be haunted. Vatican city has haunted areas and it's Holy
@@thepettiestpersonever6534 Indeed,,,utterly and wholly EVIL Vatican City...
The wages of evil are great.
Right you are, sir. I guess if I were Dictator of America, I'd actually recommend that this monument to greed be torn down.
Seth Tyrssen
You can't be dictator of America.
Obama already has that job.
But .. but ... I'd be so much better!
He wasn’t evil learn your history
Why would it be humble?
ill take it, you want cash or bitcoin?
bitcoin please
@@da1421 just one?
This is obscenely ostentatious and characteristic of rich people who are so out of touch with reality they start such a massive project in the twilight of their life and don't live to see it's completion. I'm sure the old coot truly believed he was immune to death because he was so wealthy.
hater
NO, I just stated a fact that I know to be true about filthy rich people. I have known many through business and believe me when I say they wouldn't bother to walk across the street and spit on you if you were on fire and screaming for help. How in the hell do you think they get to be that rich? It doesn't happen through honest hard work but through shady back room deals with crooked politicians. Randolph Hearst owned the Fox News of his day.
OutoorLifeFamily: You have no idea what you're talking about because you're completely ignorant of history. Go read the sordid story of William Randolph Hearst and you'll see another phony flip-flopper like Donald Trump type who started out pretending to be for the common man and later turned a 180 to the far right in favor of large corporations. Fortunately Americans were smart enough to see through his unsuccessful presidential bid in 1904...but people like you obviously weren't in 2016. Hearst was one of the originators of "fake news" that hurt many innocent people. Eventually Hearst died deep in debt because of stupid investments like this Hearst Castle.
OutdoorLifeFamily this man was a monster, lets put you in a tiny cage for 22 years
Oh boy, now he's talking about Trump. The whiny liberal had to figure a way to bring his current anger and hurt over his political loss into this. What a pathetic fool, but then again, what liberal isn't? Fake news?? It was the "fake news" that had you believing hillary or bernie would win the election! You CNN/MSNBC watcher, I guess you would know something about fake news. "Out of touch with reality"---whose reality?, yours? I guess I would have to claim I'm out of touch with your reality also, as I don't buy into jealousy, sour grapes, negativity, anger, bitterness towards anyone who possesses more than you, which I'm guessing would be just about everyone. Abject moron, go back to your quixotic existence laced with your unmitigated ignorance.
A hodge podge? He was like Rupert Murdoch? This is the goofiest narrative I have ever heard.
This narration is juvenile & inaccurate.
Must be from that silly Ariel America series.
Embarrassing.
Show us the giant bonez yall got down below.
