I’ve always wanted to visit here, but this video definitely confirmed that I’m too claustrophobic to do this particular tour. Loved the deer! Thanks for taking us along.
I love Mammoth Cave. We’ve done all the tours except the spelunking tour. We used to live in Kentucky back in the day and we used to also visit Guntown Mountain which was right down the road. I miss those places.
Hello again from rural New Hampshire. Thank you for bringing my wonderful memories back of Mammoth Cave and Kentucky. My friend and I fished, Green River. Thank you, peace and be safe.
Enjoyed this very much. Interesting to see how many places are closed... kind of sad really to see that no one cares about nostalgic places.... the world changes too much, and not always for the better!
I watched a movie with my husband the other night called , " As Above So Below " . Just watching that movie made me feel claustrophobic . When I was younger it didn't bother me , but now I don't think I could walk through a cave . Just watching you Jacob made me take a few breaths . LOL!! I have never seen a car ferry just for a flooded road before and I've never seen water in a carton . You learn something new everyday . Thanks Jacob for another great video !! Oh and BTW I love watching Kristy's campfire live stream. She's so sweet !! Hope you all have great 4th of July !!!!
Went to Mammoth Cave last year with a coworker when we were in the area... I LOVED it. I think the biggest thing you have to take into consideration is that everything was created by nature's hands. Other than the Saltpeter mine, and few remnants of bygone human activity, it's truly a wonder to behold when you realize that it took millions of years to be carved out.
I'm glad you finally did Mammoth Cave. The other Mammoth Cave tours are totally different from each other. I did the four hour Grand Avenue tour with my six year old a couple of weeks ago. You get to see the two bathrooms, the snowball dining room, and the elevator. Any of the tours where you see the frozen niagra are pretty spectacular.
my heart raced as it got more narrow (super claustrophobic) but that's why i'm grateful for your videos! thanks for going to awesome places like this that i don't think i could go see myself 😊 great video jacob!
Me and a couple of friends did the historic tour about a month ago. My first time there, though I've lived about an hour away for the past 25 yrs.. only part I didn't like was climbing the firetower steps at the end of the cave tour, due to acrophobia. Looking forward to going back to some of the other tourist traps in cave city.
Very nice. I went to Mammoth Cave as a kid back in the mid 70's on a family vacation. I wouldn't go back because I am very claustrophobic now as an adult. I've also been across the Valley View ferry just outside of Lexington, KY and yes, it's a weird thing because you are stopped in your car, but the scenery starts moving. I've lived in Central KY for 53 years. Thanks for making a video about our beautiful land.
Have you ever been on the Lost Sea Adventure glass bottom boat tour? I went on a field trip there in the 70s and it was the coolest thing ever! Oh yeah, it's in Sweetwater Tn.
I love caves and that kind of thing. We toured Marvel Cave at Silver Dollar City last weekend. I'm hoping to take the family to Carlsbad Caverns next month.
Fantastic caves! Only thing that spooked me is that "No guns allowed" sign. No a sight we see in England. Love that CB is so caring bout the animals - only what we expect from kind Jacob. Lovely lush green country. Mrs JM xxx
I remember going to mammoth cave when I was little. My oldest brother was 13 years older than me. He held me over the endless pit thinking it was funny! Scared the holy shit out of me! That had to have been in the early 70s. I can't remember anything else about the cave!
We enjoyed the cave. We did maybe four tours. My favorite was the lantern tour. We carried lanterns and they would tell spocky story's . I bought a book with ghost stories from the cave and read it to the kids in bed. They loved it. We also went horse back riding and went to some cemeterys that were old.
You should have went to the dinosaur park down the road from there it was amazingly fun! Also, when we were there last there were some teepee hotel things which looked pretty cool. We are going to go back one day and check those out.
Cool. I have no idea where your going in Cave City ! lol Can't wait to see what you see. They sure did change the looks of Huckleberry Hills. I had a lot of clean up to do here. We got hit by 80 mile per hour winds on Thursday night.
Oh my lanta! I love caves but that’d send me into a bad panic attack! I can’t do crowds NOR tight spaces! If I feel I can’t escape then I freak... I’m glad you were okay though! And thank you for sharing. This was quite interesting!
Hi Jacob, Yes Raven's Cross Haunted Village is a seasonal haunt, we are open the last weekend of Sept and every weekend in October. Do come back for a visit!
Awesome! We hope to see you this fall. Raven's Cross Haunted Village is themed in the 1300's during the time of the Black Death. We have an amazing team of actors that will take you through the time period. Also, we will be opening our first Escape Room in 2 weeks, just in time for Labor day weekend. Come see us now.
Another great video Jacob! Made me a little happy for a bit, because my mom lives less than 15 minutes from the main entrance and it brought back a lot of memories! Thank you Sir!! I cannot believe how many places have closed in Cave City! Was it because of weather or was it permanent closures? Between you and Adam the Woo, my wife and I are planning our around the country trip and which attractions to see!
Mammoth Cave is not for the fluffy! Especially the section that's called fat man's misery. My husband got me to go down there even though I thought it was on the New Madrid fault line. He told me no, but it was! That staircase was as tall as a forest ranger's tower.
Oh.. wow. I live in Glasgow,ky. I'm like 20 min from there lol. It's a beautiful park. That's my go to place to just spend the day and relax. A lot of trails to walk. It's so pretty especially during the fall! But they have a tour that goes a quarter of mile in its like 5 bucks. They other tours that last like 6 hrs and that's intermediate tho. But the cave stays cool yr round. Also, you can see all the deer and turkeys. I recommend anyone who is in the area to go to mammoth cave. 😊❤
Jacob, you are only a stone's throw away! You need to come to Paducah KY aka Quilt City USA (Yes it even has a festival and a museum, and we are only about 15 minuets from Metropolis IL, The home of Superman!
After you crossed the ferry, you keep going. Follow the signs to the “horse camping area”. 2 left turns to go past the horse camp. Then the the road turns to gravel and winds through the woods of Mammoth Cave. It takes you to the second ferry across the Green River (also free), past the high school and dead ends into a Dairy Queen! Turn left to get back to park entrance/interstate. You missed it! Do not miss Kentucky Down Under
It kind of looks like the road washed out a long time ago, and for some reason they decided the car ferry was cheaper than building a bridge. That has to be the easiest yet most boring job ever.
Wow... I have to say the audio pickup ability of that camera is rather impressive; I could hear every word the guide was saying even in the cave, which is hardly the ideal acoustic environment... pretty dark, though; couldn't see much. Still looks like fun, though. 👍 Bands used to advertise with graffiti in 1855?! That's actually pretty interesting, particularly as graffiti is generally thought of as a modern phenomenon... Aw, the deer nursing in the road! I love deer; they're my favorite animal. That was so sweet! ❤️ You think that ferry felt strange? Try the Englishtown Ferry here; that thing ROCKS something fierce, particularly on a windy day... That Outlaw Tours van looked genuinely dilapidated... the rear tire looks a little flat... 😬 Whoa... cloudburst...
Family day trips, school field trips and church outings took me to Mammoth Cave so many times as a youth and young adult that I felt like I could lead a group on the historic tour just as well as any of the paid guides. The first time I went through Fat Man's Misery I was a skinny kid. The last time I was a "mature' adult and had to go through sideways. The rocks are highly polished on either side of that path and I think I added to the shine my last time through. lol
I’ve been in a mine, and I am very claustrophobic. I’m much worse about anything having to do with heights lol. This video made me start thinking about the movie My Bloody Valentine, but you don’t really watch movies, so you were probably fine. Lol
Uh I’m sure u seen but in general area there is corvette museum an Australia Zoo. Lincoln birthplace. - fantastic and boyhood home. That cool go to mammoth
There's no stalagmites or stalagtites until you get to the end of the 5 mile tour. I'd rather go to Meremec Caverns or Onondoga Cave in Missouri. Tons of cool formations.
Was it hot in there with all those people ? I was in a cave one year in Thailand and that was pretty hot, but that of course was in Thailand which is a hot country. The ZORB ride was originated in New Zealand
I’ve always wanted to visit here, but this video definitely confirmed that I’m too claustrophobic to do this particular tour. Loved the deer! Thanks for taking us along.
Remember - don't pay the Ferryman, don't even set a price, don't pay the Ferryman, till he gets you to the other side.
I love Mammoth Cave. We’ve done all the tours except the spelunking tour. We used to live in Kentucky back in the day and we used to also visit Guntown Mountain which was right down the road. I miss those places.
That one is the best!
Claustrophobia.......I would need several glasses of wine before going in.
I never knew claustrophbia could be felt over the computer but YEP it can. I'm going back out the way I came in (at 4:29) Hope you had a good time.
Hello again from rural New Hampshire. Thank you for bringing my wonderful memories back of Mammoth Cave and Kentucky. My friend and I fished, Green River. Thank you, peace and be safe.
This video had me laughing the whole way thru. Thank you for being claustrophobic for me. I am going to skip this cave lol.
Mammoth cave is sooo big, that there's still so much undiscovered.
Enjoyed this very much. Interesting to see how many places are closed... kind of sad really to see that no one cares about nostalgic places.... the world changes too much, and not always for the better!

Lookout Mountain Ruby Falls is probably my favorite of what I have seen. Thanks for taking us down there in Mammoth Caves!
Love the Ferry! You don't see many like that anymore.
Jacov you hace a very good mix of rarely filmed places very cool!
Went to Mammoth Cave last year with a coworker when we were in the area... I LOVED it. I think the biggest thing you have to take into consideration is that everything was created by nature's hands. Other than the Saltpeter mine, and few remnants of bygone human activity, it's truly a wonder to behold when you realize that it took millions of years to be carved out.
The momma deer and her babies were precious! And the ferry was different. I wonder how long it’s been there?
I'm glad you finally did Mammoth Cave. The other Mammoth Cave tours are totally different from each other. I did the four hour Grand Avenue tour with my six year old a couple of weeks ago. You get to see the two bathrooms, the snowball dining room, and the elevator. Any of the tours where you see the frozen niagra are pretty spectacular.
OMG.........my family visited Mammoth Cave decades ago on our way to Disneyworld. That place was AWESOME!!!!!
awesome video jc
I agree with you on touring caves. And I agree with you about boxed water the paper idea is good but make it round
my heart raced as it got more narrow (super claustrophobic) but that's why i'm grateful for your videos! thanks for going to awesome places like this that i don't think i could go see myself 😊 great video jacob!

Love ❤️ Caves
If your ever in Central PA check out Penn’s Cave, you tour it by boat. The Ferry was awesome👍🏻
Have you ever been on the Lost Sea Adventure glass bottom boat tour? I went on a field trip there in the 70s and it was the coolest thing ever! Oh yeah, it's in Sweetwater Tn.
I love caves and that kind of thing. We toured Marvel Cave at Silver Dollar City last weekend. I'm hoping to take the family to Carlsbad Caverns next month.
Carlsbad is great! I went there when I was a kid in Middle School.
My kids middle school from Michigan takes a nearly 7th grade trip there.
I've always wanted to go there! Thank you for the video!! Way too many people on the tour at one time!
Went to Skyline Caverns in VA decades ago.
This is my fave nature related Vacation spot! Been several times and love it every time! It rocks 😊
Fantastic caves! Only thing that spooked me is that "No guns allowed" sign. No a sight we see in England. Love that CB is so caring bout the animals - only what we expect from kind Jacob. Lovely lush green country. Mrs JM xxx
That looked pretty cool but not very tourist friendly lol. x
Ive always wanted to do the ferry that crosses the Mississippi River near Charleston,Mo .
Well I certainly won't be heading that way...won't fit! Thanks for the video though!
It was funny how everyone went ooooooh at darkness. Did they do the same when the lights came back on lol
Try Blanchard Spring Cave in Mountain View Arkansas, or The Bonne Terre Mine and underwater Broat ride in Bonne Terre Missouri. Super Cool!
This is Awesome We were at Mammoth Cave on Friday
hey i live bout 1 /12 hrs away from Mammoth Cave !!! awesome place ive been all thru it... even places u cant get on tours !!!
I noticed the ferry was on Green River. Is that the same Green River that the serial killer would dump the bodies?
Well, if when he was riding it he felt like something bumped into the ferry... we know what it was.
Nope that one is in Washington state! We do have our share of serial killers though!
No
How bout the "Green River" in the CCR song then?
Different Green River
I love your channel and awww baby deer😍🤗
That ferry was cool! What did it cost to go across?
I remember going to mammoth cave when I was little. My oldest brother was 13 years older than me. He held me over the endless pit thinking it was funny! Scared the holy shit out of me! That had to have been in the early 70s. I can't remember anything else about the cave!
This is where I went on my first field trip in 1st grade. If all those low hanging ceilings bother you, stay away from Lost River in BG
We enjoyed the cave. We did maybe four tours. My favorite was the lantern tour. We carried lanterns and they would tell spocky story's . I bought a book with ghost stories from the cave and read it to the kids in bed. They loved it. We also went horse back riding and went to some cemeterys that were old.

Thanks for going in for me because I’m claustrophobic. I’m surprised no hard hat
Also you should go to horse cave ky! The town is apparently built over a huge cave! My grandma was from there!
Cool. I have no idea where your going in Cave City ! lol Can't wait to see what you see. They sure did change the looks of Huckleberry Hills. I had a lot of clean up to do here. We got hit by 80 mile per hour winds on Thursday night.
Nice man ! It's the biggest cave system in the world lol shout out from Louisville KY.
Oh my lanta! I love caves but that’d send me into a bad panic attack! I can’t do crowds NOR tight spaces! If I feel I can’t escape then I freak... I’m glad you were okay though!
And thank you for sharing. This was quite interesting!
wow so cool have you been to branson,mo silver dollar city cave's ???
Hi Jacob, Yes Raven's Cross Haunted Village is a seasonal haunt, we are open the last weekend of Sept and every weekend in October. Do come back for a visit!
I’d love too!

Cool 😎
Oh my...you're brave! Thanks for doing all the work for me! 😳 Box water? 🤔
I love when you come to my state and explore
I would get alittle but if anxiety with barely any lights, small spaces and a lot of people around making me feel like I’m running out of oxygen
You should go to Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico!
Those deer in the road have me flashbacks lol
No No No way... omgosh. I will watch.
Love the cave.
You were right were I live and I still haven’t got to meet you dang
Another great video Jacob! Made me a little happy for a bit, because my mom lives less than 15 minutes from the main entrance and it brought back a lot of memories! Thank you Sir!! I cannot believe how many places have closed in Cave City! Was it because of weather or was it permanent closures?

Ugh, I couldn’t do it with other ppl in there

That staircase was as tall as a forest ranger's tower.
U are like 30 mins from glasgow ky there is a muesem thatis called the kentucky cultural center that i think u would enjoy
I 've been there when I was a kid
I would have enjoyed it more if my little brother hadn't slammed my hand in the door before we went in the cave.
sandra corn , oh no !! Bless your heart .
Oh.. wow. I live in Glasgow,ky. I'm like 20 min from there lol. It's a beautiful park. That's my go to place to just spend the day and relax. A lot of trails to walk.

Bad boy here I like to see you go to the Cave of the Winds in Colorado
Don’t let mammoth cave keep you from exploring others.
After you crossed the ferry, you keep going. Follow the signs to the “horse camping area”. 2 left turns to go past the horse camp. Then the the road turns to gravel and winds through the woods of Mammoth Cave. It takes you to the second ferry across the Green River (also free), past the high school and dead ends into a Dairy Queen! Turn left to get back to park entrance/interstate. You missed it! Do not miss Kentucky Down Under
Very cool!
It kind of looks like the road washed out a long time ago, and for some reason they decided the car ferry was cheaper than building a bridge.
That has to be the easiest yet most boring job ever.
you might want to honk at the deer... otherwise they wont be afraid of cars
Wow... I have to say the audio pickup ability of that camera is rather impressive; I could hear every word the guide was saying even in the cave, which is hardly the ideal acoustic environment... pretty dark, though; couldn't see much. Still looks like fun, though. 👍

Whoa... cloudburst...
11:16 welcome to the blue house
Now I have an official term for 'the Carpetbagger Hiss' :)
Great video Jacob. although the last half was a bit morbid. lol. Thanks for the tour. 🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Been there, was pretty sweet
the one car ferry is new to me
Family day trips, school field trips and church outings took me to Mammoth Cave so many times as a youth and young adult that I felt like I could lead a group on the historic tour just as well as any of the paid guides. The first time I went through Fat Man's Misery I was a skinny kid. The last time I was a "mature' adult and had to go through sideways. The rocks are highly polished on either side of that path and I think I added to the shine my last time through. lol
Nice! I live right by that :)
Now it's more like... Frankenberry... Hill?
...I got nothin'.
I’ve been in a mine, and I am very claustrophobic. I’m much worse about anything having to do with heights lol. This video made me start thinking about the movie My Bloody Valentine, but you don’t really watch movies, so you were probably fine. Lol
Jacob you were cracking up on the ferry
I've been watching this great channel for almost a year now. One question though. Why the possum for a mascote ? It's neat. Just wondering is all.
Uh I’m sure u seen but in general area there is corvette museum an Australia Zoo. Lincoln birthplace. - fantastic and boyhood home. That cool go to mammoth
Man that car farry is making me sick and I lived in Tennessee
Lol bet very little got the rosebud whisper
There's no stalagmites or stalagtites until you get to the end of the 5 mile tour. I'd rather go to Meremec Caverns or Onondoga Cave in Missouri. Tons of cool formations.
i went to the wax museum when i was a little kid
i go there a lot the caves are cool
and the paths
Was it hot in there with all those people ? I was in a cave one year in Thailand and that was pretty hot, but that of course was in Thailand which is a hot country. The ZORB ride was originated in New Zealand
I will be in Kentucky in a week or so.
I've been there two times in my life
I like your sideburns, they remind me of the sideburns CM Punk had towards the end of his wrestling career
That was a cool cave. Not as cool as the baby deer nursing in middle of road!
How long was the tour? I heard some of them give out face masks.
Go visit Blanchard springs caverns
They have a zip line there I believe
The more the merrier. Lol
