Mortician here! The picture of the baby shaving was distributed by the funeral company, because before there were funeral directors, the people in charge of funerals were called "Barber-Surgeons". They were the local Barbers as well as Surgeons. They handled embalming and funerals. Also, just an interesting fact, people that used to be Carpenters started making coffins to make money from the increasing number of deaths. There were no such thing as Casketmakers at that time.
Me 2 ..Clinton township is where my house is and I am bummed I didn't know he was going here again...he did it early on and I thought once was enough but I guess not
Jacob, since you are “in the north “ have you considered stopping in Kenosha Wisconsin? You could visit 4 museums within walking distance (Kenosha Historical Society, Civil War Museum, Kenosha Museum and the Dinosaur Museum. In addition taking a electric trolley ride around town. Just an idea from the State where you were born. Thanks for all the videos!
Hi Jacob the Carpetbagger! Please don't feel pressure to respond to this if you are busy. We just want you to know that we watch you every single day as a family and you bring us so much joy. We know you have a lot on the agenda, so don't feel bad if you cant make it up here, but we just wanted to let you know about a hidden gem here in MI. We have a city here called Traverse City, and we thought you might be interested in some of the things up there. TC has arcades, the abandoned Tc State mental hospital (just google the name for info) a mall, and TC'S Cherry fest is going on right now! Just a thought if you are still in MI or if you ever need suggestions. Keep up the great work! We love you!💙😁🐔👍👍
What a cool museum, where you are put on ice before your last journey. i especially like how it presents factual information, without too much creepyness. It is good to regularly consider on what happens after your soul is gone and your body is degrading, and how or why that happens. My skull headcount ends at 102 with an estimated standarddeviation of 10.
my grandfather was a odd fellow and a free mason and I just wanted to let everyone know that Wilmington nc does a great Halloween parade around Halloween every year happy travels
Love the small sample coffins ⚰️ you could use them for doll funerals. At a cemetery not far from where I live, every now and then there's a funeral that hires a horse drawn hearse. I watched the apple 🍏 shrunken head video 😸
i also watched the apple shrunken head video, but maybe i forgot to like it. i seem to remember the video was ok, but Vincent Price's kit did not very much appeal to me.
Something else you could use sample coffins for (if you're a bit... strange, like me) is a desktop pen-and-pencil case. I mean, some people use empty coffee containers or plastic cups. 🙂
We own an old Oddfellows skeleton, and as it was told to me- they would use her in initiation rituals by blindfolding them, then saying something along the lines " to join us, you have to stare DEATH in the face!" And rip off your blindfold with you now nose to nose with our skeleton 😂💀
Love your vids! So much fun to watch!! Such a positive and welcoming vibe and love seeing the world with you! As a night shift ER nurse, always watch your most recent vid for some positive vibes before I head to bed for the day! Thanks again for all you do 😊
I remember that Niagara Falls museum with the mummies & it was several stories tall. My Aunt would take us on vacation there as kids & I think the last time I saw it was in my 20’s. I was always fascinated by the mummies under glass because the 1 male had red hair which now I know was not natural but caused over time & the female had lots of little braids. If memory serves it was located near the tram that goes over the whirlpool in the river downstream from the Falls.
We watched the "Shrunken Head" one ! They sure added to their museum. We allso had the owners of the "Eyegore's Curiosities & Monster Museum in Cawker City, Kansas" here a few weeks ago. They told me they had added a lot of new stuff since you stopped by their place .....
I watched your apple video!. Alos Batesville Casket Company is close to my hometown area. I grew up seeing those trucks on the highways.they make vaults to protect your loved ones from the elements I believe.
Just a note, that was really cool that you received gifts, but just to let you know your description of embalming was quite gruesome. They don’t mash up your insides, they drain all the fluids from your body and replace all of the fluids with and preservatives. I sure was glad I didn’t have any kids watching.
I heard about Michael Rockerfeller, although there is film of the tribe coming to meet a ship on their canoes, and there is a white man with them rowing. Some people believe that was Rockerfeller, assimilated into the tribe......maybe they ate him at a later date.
Yeah I've seen quite a good amount on MIchael and nothing was ever conclusive. Although the tribe has been stated to have parts of his skeleton I didn't see anything to prove who's they each had parts of.
Michael Rockefeller's official cause of death was drowning. Who really knows how he died since we have no body to go off. This place is interesting to say the least
I believe that kind of museum will become more valuable as time passes, due to the fact that more and more people are choosing to be cremated. Personally it is my choice.
I want the Jacob Museum NOW! Should start collecting trinkets, oddities and whatnot from your travels. That could be your museum... Just cool stuff and YOUR stories.
You have a great start for a museum in the bunker. It would be great for you to have your own museum one day. You could probably, use the items you buy as tax write offs,too.❤
Jacob I love your channel!!! I’m from Grand Rapids, Michigan but currently live in Baton Rouge, LA. I would love to meet you someday. Keep posting your travels. I love them all
The carpetbagger museum is a must Do endeavor , in the future ! All your Travel hilighlights and moments all for Display under one roof ! Start planning All these years of travel and whimsy. They can have a purpose !
Noooooo you were so close to me again! that’s my friend and her friends museum she sells her photography prints there and uses artifacts from the museum in here photo shoots.
Another masterpiece film , but also still am amazed all the cool places you've been over the years Out of all the places, which one is your favorite place, and would really want to revisit!?
Something occurs to me... if the Odd Fellows ordered plastic skeletons in bulk and kept them in storage somewhere, they could save a lot of time *making* skeletons from paper mache, or whatever it is. 😀
The music that is playing in the background makes the museum more mysterious and scary like l would love to visit that looks like things that u don’t see often the way funerals are displayed have changed a lot over the years very interesting 🤔
My father is a funeral director and my family owned a funeral home in Pinellas Co for over 20 yrs. Idk about that home imbalming kit. There's a lot of blood that needs to go somewhere and you need pressure to get the imbalming fluid back into the body and circulating. We used a little pump. We never cut up people's clothes or used special shoes. We used what the family gave us and dressed them head to toe like they would have been in life. Shoes, underwear, everything. You mentioned the coins on the eyes a few weeks ago. I bet that was to keep the eyelids shut. We used plastic caps that looked like giant contacts. They had little teeth on them so you'd pop them in, and pull the eyelids up, out, and over. The teeth would keep the lids in place. 🪦
I remember those eye caps. Caitlin talked about 'em on Ask A Mortician. She also described the Thread Maneuver (my unofficial name for it) used to keep the jaw shut. 😀
My daughter is almost 20 now but when we would have her birthday parties when she was young she always wanted a spooky theme...I remember when she was turning 8 n I had to scour our small town to find a coffin to rent for her party....I found one n rented it n she had an amazing party n we took a ton of pics with her friends in that coffin lol...fog machines n anything macabre u can think of...guess I couldn't expect anything less from the girl who used to go to sleep watching Coraline every night 🖤🖤
Jacob, since you are “in the north “ have you considered stopping in Sussex, NJ? you could visit Space Farms: Zoo & Museum and then you could visit Northlandz in Flemington, NJ
I find this kind of thing fascinating 🤩 I even thought about becoming a mortician at one time ⚰️ This place has an amazing collection 🌟 I watched Your Vincent Price shrunken apple head video Jacob and it was really fun ❣️🙌😄 Thank You, as always, for bringing Us along with You 🙏💝😻
I am so creeped out.....Yes yet again another museum I love to hate.!!!! You don't always want to look but you just have too.....Nice one Jacob keeping it super interesting and amazing experiences XX
Suggestion for the future Carpet bagger museum one item from each and every other museum you ever visited. Hopefully there would be donations since that could get costly.
From what I’ve read, they use the skeletons to show the shortness of life and human mortality. I know there’s more to this but I can’t remember all of it
When my Dad died on Dec 30,2013..my Mom wanted him to where a suit but my brother convinced her that because the viewer was just going to see the top half of Dad, he’d only need his double breasted suit coat. So Dad was buried with no trousers on. I thought that was wrong to do.

Yes please make your own museum in some years . Your collection is always growing. I would love to take a visit 🙇♀️
OMFG YOU WERE TEN MINUTES FROM MY HOUSE IN GOING TO CRY
Right??? Same!!!!!
Me 2 ..Clinton township is where my house is and I am bummed I didn't know he was going here again...he did it early on and I thought once was enough but I guess not
What a baby!
@@AlexanderGarcia-cy3kmhope your joking
Omg boy far from me eather 😭😭
Man, the music at that place really adds to that creepy atmosphere. Another awesome video Jacob!
Omg you were 10 mins from my Sparks Pinball Museum!
Ooh! The Carpetbagger Museum! I LOVE that idea! It should also have a dark ride...designed by YOU! I'd pay to go on that. :D
67.5 💀s…is what I got.
This was very cool!
Mutter Museum in Philly. Super amazing in same vein...
I 2nd this!!

I watched your “shrunken head” video, Jacob. Your apple head was truly a masterpiece! 😁👍
You were on my neck of the woods! When I watched your other MI videos, this week, I knew you'd go to the death museum in Mt. Clemens!!
Love the small sample coffins ⚰️ you could use them for doll funerals.
At a cemetery not far from where I live, every now and then there's a funeral that hires a horse drawn hearse.

You should make your own museum with the stuff from the bunker. That is a very interesting place Jake! Hope you have a great time!
I agree! If he makes a museum it will be a very popular attractionㅇ
I counted 47 skulls! I probably missed a few but that's still a lot of skulls!
We own an old Oddfellows skeleton, and as it was told to me- they would use her in initiation rituals by blindfolding them, then saying something along the lines " to join us, you have to stare DEATH in the face!" And rip off your blindfold with you now nose to nose with our skeleton 😂💀

You were just near my house again! I always look for you when I pass by this lol
I enjoy macabre museums Thank you for another great video Jacob I hope you will do more like this one in the future

Omg I live 10 minutes away I would have absolutely died if I had just been driving by and saw you on the side of the road !!!!!!! This is wild !!!!!
Morticians used to make house calls. Who knew?
Pipe dreams are the best dreams! I would totally visit the carpetbagger museum! I bet it would have the BEST gift shop!
While in Michigan I highly recommend experiencing
Turtle Lake Resort 3:16
I could spend DAYS in there! Fascinating!
Yes, Carpetbagger, you should have your own museum someday ❤
We watched the "Shrunken Head" one ! They sure added to their museum. We allso had the owners of the "Eyegore's Curiosities & Monster Museum in Cawker City, Kansas" here a few weeks ago. They told me they had added a lot of new stuff since you stopped by their place .....
You sure put the 'fun' into funeral there Jacob. Another fascinating video.
I love interesting stuff and learning new things. This video has both, and The Carpet Bagger!!! Friggin' sweeeet!
Check out the Area 52 Diner in Owosso MI.
28:37
Had this video in my "Watch Later" collection. Glad I was cleaning up my TH-cam and found it. Another well done vid Jacob. Thank you for sharing.😊
Hope you enjoy your time in Michigan! Great Lakes State welcomes you dude!
Hi Jacob… you met me in Seattle years ago…
Letting you know that there is a Death Museum in Seattle, Wa.
TH-camr- Urban Historian
I watched your apple video!. Alos Batesville Casket Company is close to my hometown area. I grew up seeing those trucks on the highways.they make vaults to protect your loved ones from the elements I believe.

I'd love to see you go visit the Mutter Museum
Im going to Marvin’s marvelous mechanical museum tomorrow! Love your vids stay safe 👍
Michael Rockefeller's official cause of death was drowning. Who really knows how he died since we have no body to go off. This place is interesting to say the least
Boy, you'd have to be in the right frame of mind to walk round that museum. GULP. Thanks....I think 😶
I believe that kind of museum will become more valuable as time passes, due to the fact that more and more people are choosing to be cremated. Personally it is my choice.
I want the Jacob Museum NOW! Should start collecting trinkets, oddities and whatnot from your travels. That could be your museum... Just cool stuff and YOUR stories.
Jacob, your demonstration of the siphon tool made me a bit nauseous. Personally, I would have graciously declined that gift. 😂
Hi Jacob 🙋🏽. I'M sorry I missed you At GREENFIELD VILLAGE. 👍🏽😃
Good to see another video of Jacob the Carpetbagger, good morning 🌞🤓📸 stay safe.
Renting a kids coffin, probably the most morbid thing I have heard of
Hey Jacob, you were in my home town, Mount Clemens, Michigan!
~ Gary at the PostcardShack
You have a great start for a museum in the bunker. It would be great for you to have your own museum one day. You could probably, use the items you buy as tax write offs,too.❤
Maybe a rollercoaster ride in his backyard
I wonder if all the skulls, minus the head hunter skulls, were from cadavers.
I hope to see you back in Tennessee Gatlinburg.
Love the channel Jacob, wish i could travel like you do!
Same... And I like your name!
Jacob I love your channel!!! I’m from Grand Rapids, Michigan but currently live in Baton Rouge, LA. I would love to meet you someday. Keep posting your travels. I love them all
The carpetbagger museum is a must
Do endeavor , in the future ! All your
Travel hilighlights and moments all for
Display under one roof ! Start planning
All these years of travel and whimsy.
They can have a purpose !
Awesome video, Jacob
Noooooo you were so close to me again! that’s my friend and her friends museum she sells her photography prints there and uses artifacts from the museum in here photo shoots.
My profile picture is from the museum as well
Another masterpiece film , but also still am amazed all the cool places you've been over the years Out of all the places, which one is your favorite place, and would really want to revisit!?
Creepy but really interesting at the same time
I had no idea this even existed!
Something occurs to me... if the Odd Fellows ordered plastic skeletons in bulk and kept them in storage somewhere, they could save a lot of time *making* skeletons from paper mache, or whatever it is. 😀
lololololol HOW DO YOU FIND THESE PLACES!!!!! i find them very interesting .... love the crazy weird places you take us .. keep them coming..
I'd come see the museum
I looked for Jacob's civil war wound museum video and couldn't find it.😢
The music that is playing in the background makes the museum more mysterious and scary like l would love to visit that looks like things that u don’t see often the way funerals are displayed have changed a lot over the years very interesting 🤔

Oh yeah! It's been a min since we owned it but a lot of the things Jacob showed or walked past brought up some good memories. Oddly. 🙂🪦
My daughter is almost 20 now but when we would have her birthday parties when she was young she always wanted a spooky theme...I remember when she was turning 8 n I had to scour our small town to find a coffin to rent for her party....I found one n rented it n she had an amazing party n we took a ton of pics with her friends in that coffin lol...fog machines n anything macabre u can think of...guess I couldn't expect anything less from the girl who used to go to sleep watching Coraline every night 🖤🖤
Awesome little tour 👌🏻👍🏻
Have 😂 a great day Carpetbagger
Very informative intreasting thankyou,my last count was 51 but def loads more skulls
I hope you're heading to northern Michigan!
i never heard of a death museum before i never even know that could happen.
but you should make a museum of your own.
You were having to much fun with that trocar Jacob, lol
I watched that Vincent Price Shrunken Head video, CB. I remember you doing it.
Jacob, since you are “in the north “ have you considered stopping in Sussex, NJ? you could visit Space Farms: Zoo & Museum and then you could visit Northlandz in Flemington, NJ
I live right down the road from here, I need to go visit. Also right down the road is a good little diner called Johns, I highly recommend it.
I find this kind of thing fascinating 🤩 I even thought about becoming a mortician at one time ⚰️ This place has an amazing collection 🌟 I watched Your Vincent Price shrunken apple head video Jacob and it was really fun ❣️🙌😄 Thank You, as always, for bringing Us along with You 🙏💝😻
Thats a great idea for your retirement I would love to see everything you have accumulated over the years! I say do it
Loved this !
I would love to see you go to the mutter museum 😊
I am so creeped out.....Yes yet again another museum I love to hate.!!!! You don't always want to look but you just have too.....Nice one Jacob keeping it super interesting and amazing experiences XX
I watched the shrunken head apple video when you released it 😊
my heart drop when i see the jacob playing with the trocar, definitely haunted 🙂
YOU'VE NEVER SEEN GOODFELLAS??!?!?!?
Suggestion for the future Carpet bagger museum one item from each and every other museum you ever visited. Hopefully there would be donations since that could get costly.
Thanks for going here Jacob very interesting 🧐 I definatly would love to do a ghost investigation there no doubt has to be haunted 😊
Does anybody know what the mask is in the case at 13:15? My family has one just like it
I really need to make a trip out there! It looks amazing!
From what I’ve read, they use the skeletons to show the shortness of life and human mortality. I know there’s more to this but I can’t remember all of it
Amazing
The body bags are scratch and sniff lol
I counted 50 and one half human skulls , one feline siull , and one pig skull
Counted 55 skulls . We watched the shrunken apple when you first put it up.
When my Dad died on Dec 30,2013..my Mom wanted him to where a suit but my brother convinced her that because the viewer was just going to see the top half of Dad, he’d only need his double breasted suit coat. So Dad was buried with no trousers on. I thought that was wrong to do.
So cool
Bucket list.
22:08 I guess Pewe Herman ?
Was that the music inside the building that was really loud
I love this video BTW love this stuff
Just gonna say Henry Hill was NOT a mafia hitman.
