Before the corona lockdown in Italy we went there to visit an impressive abandoned NATO command bunker which was built during the cold war and got abandoned in the mid 90's.
It's one of the coolest underground locations we've been to.

I was stationed at the USAF base at Comiso, Sicily, Italy from 1987 to 1989. The base is listed on the big status board at 23:48, lower left, in yellow. The "GLCM" means it was a ground launched cruise missile base. I worked in Comms. Great video, brought back some memories!
I wonder if it shows unknown active place
@@peterzingler6221 It very well could have, since that was a controlled access facility.
What about Coronavirus? Nato know something? Talk please, people are dying cause of this shit.
La Davil Le Rusher There is no misteryes about Cov 2, the origin is the same of all flu virus we fight every year whit vaccination campaigns. The problem is that people move around the world in hours, is a virus hard to fight by the body, and we dont have any cure at the moment. So-> Stay home, clean hands and avoid to touch your face. To be calm is the strongest thing we can do 👍
@@thisnameisalreadyful Don't know about other places, but for Turkey the map seems to be very accurately pointing to places well kept even today. So I guess they are active even today for sure.
Wow what a place! Great episode!
You guys need to go back to Europe, hopefully by next Summer after all this COVID-19 madness dies down.
ครับผม ติดตามพวกคุณนะครับ
Thanks guys ! Also waiting for borders to open? :)
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath Hey, is there anyway its possiple to send a private message to you guys? :D

The white crystals on the ground is saltpeter aka Potassium Nitrate. Common food preservative.
Also grows through concrete structures in the presence of moisture.
Cyber Cat isn’t that one of the major components of gunpowder also?
Cyber cat it's also called efflorescence
@@dennishudson9723 yes
Yes it is.
Most production on the previous era is by pissing on a spot of ground and filtering the contents.
Thanks, I was wondering. I have something similar growing in my garage
Thank you, nice video, as an Italian signal corps specialist when I was 19yrs old in 1984 ,i was stationed nearby and knew that base, those were the times when we still expected an invasion from the Warsaw pacts forces, we were really on the front line.
ciao, ma scusa ma dove si trova quella base? mi piacerebbe molto entrarci ed esplorarla
@@allycat-gk5zt Non se può dire,perché ce sta il rischio che qualche malintenzionato ci vada per fa vandalismo.Pure vicino a dove vivo io ce ne sta uno,però evito di parlarne.

@@mariom1950 Almeno qui é il segreto di pulcinella, ho un sacco di amici che l'anno visitata (me compreso, non tutta)
@@psyber1130 uooo grazie grandissimo ora vado a farci softaire XDDDD
Never understood why people make such an effort to get into these places and then trash them. Imagine how much more we could have learned if they were the first in.
This has a really strong Metro 2033 vibe... love it !
It's quite reckless to enter a place like this without oxygen sensors. With all that rust around you can might as well walk in to an area with low oxygen and never walk out of it. Quite common safety hazard inside non-ventilated areas on ships, but can occur even inside buildings. The biggest danger is that while human body can recognize high CO2, it will not recognize low oxygen.
Tbh I would be more scared about random claymores or mines left inside the bunker.
@@dieterbohm9700why would there be claymores in a bunker that wasnt in a warzone?
@@kernobil8162people leave traps in abandoned buildings all the time, just yesterday i saw a claymore in a microwave
I almost developed claustrophobia watching them in that under floor. Great video
Wow! This is really high quality exploring! Never seen anything of this hard core level on youtube before. You deserve many compliments for your expertise and value!
I used to live 20 minutes from this place and my uncle when was in the military used to work there for few months. The base it is called "NATO Proto Base", in the Caserta area, south of Italy.
google maps, 41.216374, 13.958394
Do you know if there a replacement for the base ?
I 'worked' at Proto in the 90's. That video brought back memories.
@@juandenz2008 It's all moved to Lago Patria I believe.
No way I would ever crawl through such a small concrete tunnel! Impressive that these guys make such an effort!
Have been waiting for this episode for few days. Awesome explore, thanks for sharing! Also, please be safe :)
So glad to see you taking PPE seriously....honestly so much asbestos was used in a lot of these military places and old soviet place too it makes common sense.
Амбер Amber in these old military places and old soviet places? It’s an old American base and asbestos was used all over the world!
yes the hat is important
The thing isn't so much useful if they dosen't know how to use them.
and Hanta
Not much use the suit if your not wearing gloves or shoe protectors either 🤷♂️
Thanks for bringing us along on this fantastic adventure! It was so interesting but I could never have crawled that way you did through the narrow space!!!! I could have been in trouble claustrophobia is obviously not a problem with any of you!! Awesome video content!!!
Those tunnels you crawled through where the wires used to run would frighten me too much, you are all very brave!!!
Only people with balls can do urbex, you are not one of them
I was stationed in Naples at the Nato Base. I spent many weeks here we called it Proto over a 6 year period. man the memories. I worked in the Crypto Vault
Yep that video sure did! I worked at Medical.
Wow! Incredible video guys! Thank you for brining us along to see this cool place.
This kind of stuff is on my bucket list. I'd love to do this stuff 1 time in my life. I love old places that have been left behind. I love the history. Keep up the great work.
Great to see the full length of the explore, I had no idea this place was this big! Epic!
It's huge. If you do some more reading/watching: There is a giant underground water tank where an echo lasts for minutes. And there is an elevator shaft where noone can reach the lower level because it's blocked by the elevator. Who knows what still lurks down there :)
Awesome!!! Great video to watch tonight :-D
Pretty awesome that you guys make your own hard cover books! Best merch ive ever seen a channel promote, Good job!
How are you not as famous as the proper people, I mean yall do more dangerous stuff then they do and go to some very interesting places..
i think mostly because they only recently started doing their episodes in english
It's all about the badass intro
Fantastic video gents, but there's no way in hell you'd get me through that entrance tunnel.
Funny looking Hedgehog Fungus, hahaha!
It just amazes me the amount of money these countries invested into nuclear weapons and defense against nuclear weapons. Imagine the infrastructure that could have been had instead :|
There wouldnt be nuclear power without the weapons programs and without those. In turn we might have never started to look at fusion, which we still havent cracked, but inching closer. Fusion = Borderline "free" none environmental impact power. Aka the holy grail in context of fixing global warming.
@@Lobos222 still wrong dude ;) as you see in the video its ill invested money, they would have done sience on nuclear fission anyway with way more money if not spend on such things like bunkers etc ! maybe we would even have fusion rn if we wouldnt had spend all that money on concrete buried below ground ! ;) but its indded really nice for yt videos tbh thumps up for that
@@Lobos222 Or making even more powerful weapons without radioactivity this time. The destructive power would be many, many times more powerful than the largest hydrogen bombs. You would be looking at gigatons!!!
It's so sad that no matter how many years pass, it seems like there will never be peace...
@@Amplexius That's super naive. It's doubtful _any_ real research into nuclear power would've happened without the weapons programs. I mean, _why_ would they have bothered?!
I am Italian and in my area there are numerous similar bunkers also dating back to the fascist era, below the historical center of my city (also under my house) there are military tunnels.
I think I will visit this base in the future.
Di dove sei?
What's your city??
Sai dove si trova il bunker del video?
@@annamariamiciotto5616 credo sia quello di la spezia
@@scrambler1650 grazie, sono una appassionata di storia e questo posto sembra fantastico!
You guys got the best videos!!
Amazing place and an amazing explore. Thank you for sharing. Best wishes Paul
New subscriber here just wanted to say that this was a great video and I'm going to binge watch some more while quarantined! Great content stay safe and healthy!
Awesome vid guys! Keep exploring
Amazing bunker! Well it more looks like tunnels underneath the mountain XD Strange to notice that in case of fire there are several numbers... You should think there there would be one single number to dial in case of emergency. That bunker really reminds me of the faults they have in the game Fall Out :) Fun times with friends! Too bad Corona hit the globe... Looking forward to the next video :)
I still remember some of these places, thank you for the video.
I would never crawl through the tunnel at the beginning far too claustrophobic for me
I would be very careful with tunnels like that, if one of you gets stuck or gets injured, there's no way you can get out alive. It's a good idea to agree on procedures for confined spaces like those tunnels, for example, have one of you remain outside and the leading person carry an extraction rope which is also useful for moving around equipment.
@@Stoney3K That was my thought as well. Very dumb of them to bring in everyone
Yeah me either I was getting a little squirmy watching that
@@Stoney3K also good idea to have a robot - quad car with camera. Safety first
Agreed, i almost had a panic attack just watching that lol, count me out
Love your channel, keep up the amazing videos
My new fav channel - great work guys
Awesome as always Bob.
Thanks for the video.Intresting as always. I realy like your panda Hat :P
Another top notch location 👌 Keep up the good work!!
Nice episode again. Keep it up guys!
Good stuff gentlemen.
Badass as usual. Stay safe out there
Bellissimo episodio...avevo sentito parlare di questo posto...Grazie ragazzi per avercelo mostrato!😎♥️
Fantastic work,love this
Y'all always find the coolest spots
you know you're gonna have fun when you have to Crawl through a cable shaft, nice work guys!
Italy is the best country! thanks for this exploration:)
Suddenly, I think Bethesda did a really good job with it's Vault designs in their Fallout Games...
9:35 really reminded me of the place where you confront and kill Kellogg. Just inside behind there if there was more room.
@@freedomisntfreeffs Fallout makes you think back to 4? That sucks
so nice to see this adventure, this bunker is still rare among our urbexers
This is few kms away from were I live, heard so many cool stories about it . I went to highschool nearby that base, Some days we skipped school and went messing around in one of the old (walled obviously) galleries that brings into the base ; there are many, some known, some complitely hidden. also, all the entrances,exits and service galleries have been walled! Some says it actually had a sea exit.
I wish I could have played there as a teenager🤩 thanks for watching!
Ciao, posso chiederti dove si trova questo posto? :-)
@@LucioTamburini sud Italia
@@liberoverardi2496 provincia? Se vuoi dirlo altrimenti basta dare degli indizi comprensibili
@@L.Parisi al confine fra provincia di Caserta e provincia di Latina, fra l'alto casertano e il sud pontino verso il litorale Domizio. Se vuoi scrivimi in privato
Very interesting video. A few of these have been preserved and turned into museum's in the U.K. Very airy places to visit but still very interesting even for younger generations who didn't live through the cold war.
Well that was worth the effort - excellent exploration!
UAU.... Que espectacular vocês são os melhor top dos tops parabéns
impressive and beautifully filmed. i'm writing from this bunker, warn me when the virus's gone.
Awesome video quality. Steady camera work. Well done.
another dope video!
Awesome video!
Great adventure thanks for bring me along with 🤗
It is sad that thses places are left abandoned, just to rot away and disappear or for people to rip them apart. Great that you document these places before they rot for good!!
A nice way in pfft , great explore guys, was interesting.
Wow😍Top Video guys👍🏻
21:48 love the Tropospheric Scatter dishes!
either bag the shoes or wash them (in a stream...or away from your home) following... asbestos is no joke...I'd tell your friends to ditch the clothes they wore too
OMG!!!! Amazing!!!!! episode! Thank you!! it reminded me of OSTWALL BUNKER !! in Poland
How do you keep travk of the exit in those tunnels?
Must be quit the maze!
Thumbs up! Loved the vid!
Cool place! Great video!
Thanks! You should check out the most dangerous adventures playlist😎
Coolbeens. Yet another cool place and cool video
You guys are marterers for us urbex people thanks for your service and are cause
Great guys!
Enjoying the videos
You found the real black mesa! Nice
This is incredible 😎👌
Excelentes exploraciones!!!!
This is so cool. I wish I could go there. But no way I would get into that tight tunnel.
topvid as Always...moet toch ongelooflijk veel speurwerk zijn om die dingen te vinden...top thx you make my day boysss
You are.really the best guys keep going
Absoluty amazing
Amazing how many abandoned structures there are. Things just forgotten.
My friend thank you and thanks your friends because you do job good
so Iam glad you took things with you to clean up, I hope you took them out with you also, no point in contaminating other things..good job
Baby wipes clean but do not really sanitize...
You are young and healthy so maybe no big deal. As someone else advised, I would change out of everything when you get out and bag it and change into uncontaminated clothing. Or wear tyvek as one of you did. Also, re-wearing the tyvek means you are carrying the contaminated suit around with you. They are really intended for single use and disposal...
You could really use a safety person on the outside, with radio links.
I realize that traveling light enables you to get in and out of some of these(maybe all?) of these sites, but I was thinking what if one of you had a medical during that crawl-in, you really didn't have a good way to rescue them and get out. It would be nice to so some more margin of safety when you are underground.
Great video, be safe.
Nice with some action. Contrast to many vanilla videos out there. Good job! Cheers.
Thanks a lot! Have you checked the playlist most dangerous adventures?
What an experience that would be!
Fantastic 🔥
Good job guys.. great memories from that bunker 😂
Chiara, su per giù mi dici dov'è? Regione o provincia se non vuoi entrare nello specifico, al resto penso io
Your videos are really good. It's almost like being there. They have a movie-like quality as well. I thought that the shot of the camera being set up on tripod to shoot the command center room's highlights was very like a time period movie opening shot, or might be an archaeological scene opening where some archaeologists were study an ancient people who allowed actual Pandas to pilot primitive airplanes painted a touch too reddish. Possibly aliens too. You sound like aliens to me (I'm American and have a bizarre accent due to living in very different States for many years) but it doesn't matter because only weird people are interesting.Your jokes about the mushrooms on the pizza juxtaposing the fungus-filled bunker were great. Keep it up.
I LOVE the cold war stuff! keep it up! :)
It would be cool to restore and boot up one of those Delta terminals
There is a lot of old classified tech that never saw the light of day, and has been scrapped and is turning into dust/rust somewhere.
u cant motherboards and all electronics is removed..its only metal case left in there
@@weareallbeingwatched4602 do you known what kind of hardware (CPU, Operating Systemsor just serial terminals) are inside?? I cant find any info in the web. Thanks
I did a quick search and apparently, this company did business primarily with NATO and the US military. There seems to be very little, if any public information on that particular type of terminal. If someone were to nick them, polish them up and try to sell them on eBay, certain people might want to know their location.
Very cool place!!!
Awesome channel
wow. Please take one of those keebs with u at home. I would kill for those keycaps(Orange Dolch looking ones at the beginning)+ switches
Watching this, I felt like I was catching a fungal disease through my screen.
This has been one video where I’m glad I wasn’t there and breathing in whatever was inside that bunker.
I kinda liked that more than the ammo factory but it was cool seeing all the machines and that rocket launcher.... Both epic sites!!!
Greetings from Florida's East Coast!
wauw wat gaaf om te zien allemaal.. Alleen die smalle tunnel brrr
That place is a mycological paradise. Never seen mold in such abundance.
Really cool
Amazing. I wonder if they would renovate the bunker if need be. Anyway Hope you guys aren't grounded for too long because of the Virus . Looking forward to the atomic shelter video now :). Stay safe out there
Would likely cost too much to be feasible unfortunately
Wow. It's amazing
Thanks for watching
Hey. Were are you from?? Iam in india
A very interesting explore
great find that
I love the bunkers
🤗thx
Vault 99. You should check your pip boy to see if there is any rads.
