I'm stoked that you do the legwork to produce a story, and communicate something of value. It's refreshing.
The love child of Huell Howser & Indiana Jones with your own hip urban flair. Love your videos Tom! Stay explorin'
Hi. I started boxing at 14 at the LAYAC (The Old Jail). That ring you just saw was were I fought my ass off. I won my first amateur fight there. No one was going to beat me that day. I sparred countless times in that ring. Going up to the 5th florr everyday was crazy, I would take the stairs mostly. The elevator was always a risk. A trainer plunged to his death once. The elevator never showed up.
Great times.
gotta say that i always get excited when i see a new tom video on my feed. its always great to see how much history my city has. and as a fellow urban explorer , its always fun for me to go to these places and see for myself. once again thank you. and a suggestion you should go and see the Ranchos Los Amigos abandoned hospital. there are a few buildings , its easy to get into just watch out for the cops when jumping the fence. after that you guys should be good the buildings should cover you. its best to go on Sunday if you need any more info on in let me know.
ChrisFreeRunning Is it better to go during the day or night?
The one In downey? Yup I've been there. That place is gnarly at night lol
ChrisFreeRunning yeah night is better
ChrisFreeRunning I did a bunch of photoshoots at Rancho Los Amigos back in the day before they fenced everything up. They use to have the fence open and you can walk right in. And Yes Sunday was the best time to go. Last time I went back they had security driving around it. I want to go back because there is Soo Much to explore there, its unbelievable.
Just went there today! It was crazy we sounded the alarm so be-careful guys.
+Stephany Gomez How did you get in?
how did you get in??
firme touch with that sunny and the sunliners at the start
This is one of my favorite episodes. We love you Tom. You have an ability to render a time period with such vivacity. Thanks for offering a transcendental experience!
Talk about great timing for dramatically effect! Nothing like getting all Shawshank and do a prison break... Awesome video guys!
Tom, you have to keep making videos like this about the real face and history of LA. Fuckin brilliant! I adore all your films, so please keep em coming!! So good if you love LA. Keep up the good work Tom and his fabulous team.
BEST. EPISODE. YET.
these videos are so so great! they're making appreciate this city more. thank you!
Awesome video!! Love watchin your Vids Tom. Keep up the good work!
You should try and check out the abandoned Downey asylum. There is a lot to explore in there.
Been there
This reminded me of The Proper People's abandoned Steel Mill Exploration where they also got sealed inside. Great content!
Another great episode! Great job!
Glad you made it out! Great video
Loved this episode! Sad to see the walls covered and literally everything covered in graffiti
Another great documentary! Hopefully one day my little girls videos exploring LA will be as good as yours! Keep it up!
Another really nice video guys. You're showing a history and face of L.A. most don't see and certainly not in any tourist brochures. People must really be into tagging round L.A. though, because that spray paint was way OTT and erased so much history. A real shame, and in that respect it's a good thing the place was re-sealed. Keep the videos coming!
Such a good video. Scott is a great human.
Love your videos thanks for risking your lives to document these amazing places so we don't have to
Another great video!
Awesome video!
Good stuff man love the fact that I saw myself up but a lot of great artist keep it up
Damn... changed my whole perspective on tagging! Great video
There's more to the jail... developers have wanted to convert it into something useful for years (residential, commercial, mixed-use, etc.) but it's REALLY polluted with oils and other industrial chemicals. All slowly seeping into the LA river, and hence into the ocean. Someone has to pay for the cleanup before developing, so right now it's a stalemate between the city and would-be developers as to who will foot the bill. Which will cost millions and millions, btw.
thanks you for this video
Beautiful video as always, but I feel like you weren't there very long or that we weren't able to see much of the prison before you guys felt like you needed to try to find a way out of there (understandably so, but I wish we could have seen more). Thanks for what you were able to get!
I'm posting videos of each floor. Coming soon.
i know scott. yay! makes me so happy top see him with you guys.
What a great episode! Nice job Tom. Do you have an instagram?
i believe you guys, i have been outside of it. never inside but this is a crazy cool episode. love it.
Something about the old jail makes me deeply sad. I honestly dont know what but it really vibes with me in a sad way
Excellent
loved this
great music
awesome stuff -- btw Tom how about applying to be on Survivor - who knew you had jedi skillz?
Nice! Heard they filmed a Resident Evil 2 commercial here years ago
I'm glad I got into the old Georgia Street LAPD station, back in the 80s, right before they tore it down. It was located where the Staples Center property is now.
Nice job by the camera man, Jordan Black. I could hear your voice, JT.
HOPES !
Where were the stairs located to go to the 2 floor and up ??
Are people still able to get into the jail?
question have you gone to the Mojave desert to find the hidden hot tub ???
How did you get in?
PARTS OF THE FIRST ROCKY MOVIE WAS ALSO FILMED THERE ,THAT WAS MY BOXING GYM
Is there any way to still get in? Is it even worth it any more?
It's all closed down I tried last week to get in but no luck
+Jason Lee scott damn
Can you still get in it?
I'm the first person to ever tag that roof top! I grew up there in that boxing gym called l.a.y.a.c that was my kingdom......
Stop playing
What's the name of the intro song?
i need to go to that place anyone know if there's a way in?
tom, u think the prison still accesable?
NO
whats the guys name at 7:10 i met him at conquer la
the workers didnt hear you inside? That place echoes, im sure they would have hear something
What happened to Sybil Bran Women’s jail?
PROPER DOS- HARDTIMES WAS ALSO SHOT HERE 1993
I want to say that this video is 100% true. The part where they got sealed in did happen as I was there as well. I was the one who put that bar across the door so no one would enter. My friend and I also got sealed in.
Laaates
But to be honest with you that was a real video they did get sealed in. So did I and some white Bitch I use to tuck her name was Annie Wrate. from Highland Park. I was fucking her inside when we got sealed in
Good luck they have cameras and a security on site
LMAO try...and expect getting a FAT ticket. Security patrols it 24/7
I gotta come show me a way in

Is the Lincoln Heights jail area safe to visit / take photos? I'm too much of a pussy to go inside, just wanted photos of the outside and surrounding buildings, wasn't sure if homeless or people hang around that area
The city should auction that place instead of letting it rott away
What if there was an "art wall" constructed just for the tag artists? Their art is good, but it's actually vandalism. No one ever gets to see their great works, hidden away in rotting places. Why do they waste their talents in places like that? I have often enjoyed the street art in our town, it is confined to a space where they have permission, mainly, behind an old theater that is used for concerts and youth recreation. Good video. Very cool to escape the jail. had to sub you, as I was born in Los Angeles, but never lived there. I bet my dad was in that jail a few times. haha
Leisa Irwin Just consider this; the legal tagging that looks good, is probably a result of illegal practicing.
Jon Bartolo
I can agree with that.
Leisa Irwin I literally had that idea when I was younger. definitely seems like something that could be beneficial to the cultural essence of los angeles and even other cities.
They filmed the movie penitentiary and colors there
Does anybody know how to get in as of this time ?
Jesus Hernandez planning a visit soon, but haven't found a way in just yet.
Go try...and expect a fat ticket.
Ojromero 88 almost did, but we were able to talk ourselves out of it.
I want to go, anybody planing on going and getting inside pls let me know
LOl Good luck.
zach wetcher is my film teacher wtf
sucks they tagged all over it and fuckd the place up...
my tagg stays rocking
Love your stuff Tom. One of my fav TH-camrs Casey Neistat has mentioned a few times in his Vlogs he has talked about moving to LA. I would love to see what kinda videos he makes here prob of the same quality as yours Toms.

EASTSIDE SMW GANGSTERS

+TheWincking you guys down to go? I think I might know a way in. Add me on ig @calsabs or email me sal.cabezas27@gmail.com.
Salvador Cabezas followed you on insta brah
Salvador Cabezas did you find a way in? I was there this past Sunday and seen a security guard posted up inside the gate. So we walked around the back in the train yard and still couldn't find a way in.
Hey guys I’m a fan of nightmare on elm street I really would like to get in pls anybody interested on going there let me know
Is it just me or is your voice more montone and drony than it was in the first season? I love the show but it's a lot better when you sound interested in what you're talking about like in the old LA zoo or LA's steepest street episode.
Tom, I love your videos, but there is no such thing as "Art Deco" architecture. The building is Streamline Moderne.
