Balestrino is no mistery. Why are you posting random ideas without even fact checking first your information? Balestrino was inhabited until 1953, earthquakes, landslides and instability caused people to flee. The town dates back to 11th century A.D. It is believed that the town was owned by the Benedictine abbey of San Pietro dei. I visited the town 2 years ago and the only structure remaining is the castle. For God’s sake please read and research before you post all this garbage on TH-cam.
There is also mention of Battleship Island being 16 acres, which it is, and thus being comparable to the size of Manhattan--which is over 20 square miles..... WTF????
That's what people are good for here in the world making the world look like a junkyard they seem to know how to scatter all his junk all over the world to make it look like shit
>15 largest abandoned cities! >gets to second one on list "Fortunately, there ARE people living in this city..." And more importantly, absolutely NO mention of Mayan cities which are ALL abandoned, and are older and larger than most of these examples. They are still there, just look under the jungle!
This kind of mini documentaries are very interesting if the facts were accurate. The Italian city Balestrino is inhabitable due to too many earthquakes in the regions that give a grand instability to the ground. People left in 1950 for safety, it was only 400 people back then, the maximum habitants that Balestrino has know was around 800. And that's why it's not opened to the public. The idea behind this video was great, make sure you know your stories though
Just so you know, Varosha isn't closed to the public, because when I was 14 I was one of the first people amongst a line of about 400 to enter the city after 26 years of it being abandoned. We went on a tour around the city, and it's creepy as hell, many buildings are riddled with bullet holes, plates remain on restaurant tables, plants grow out of the hotels etc, it was an amazing experience.
Yeah, the amount of background music makes it really annoying to watch. Managed to get through the whole video, but not gonna watch any more due to how distracting the music is.
For what I know, the 'old' Balestrino borgo ( little village ) was abandoned for continuous landslides and ground instability... The community moved down the valley in safer places, and yup, the area of the old Balestrino is closed to anyone, just for the hazard it poses to improvised tourists and explorers...so, no mistery behind it...
Lol, I agree. Good video, bad narration and shotty facts. Great Pete’s think alike. On a more serious note, check out this site for independent updates on the human condition. 153news.net
Do you think this guy finished editing this video and thought how great it will be and all the likes that will pile up only to learn he failed. Seriously?!? Coral!?! Yep Coral is two syllables and he definitely says coral. Is there even suck a thing of coral mining
Well the island in the beginning with a COAL mining town/city not coral like the narrator mentions more than once, please get your facts right before you post... Just saying
Hey you need to get your facts straight before posting a video. You said "that the island is around 16 acres in total mass making it only slightly larger than the island of Manhattan"... Manhattan is 14,478 acres, which is exponentially larger.
could be an error reading the comma as decimal... which is very common in Europe... I (as a Belgian) would read it as '14 comma 478 acres' which is slightly smaller than 16 :) ofc I know Manhattan is larger and (from my point of view) Americains are weird (no offense intended) and therefore notice it has to be '14 thousand 478 acres' :) I don't know where he's from tho, but it's the only reason I can think of why he'd make such a mistake...
1:29 "Coral Mines?" I really hate it when absolutely NO research is done, but yet purvey their lack of knowledge as if they actually had a clue! Hashima Island was a COAL MINE, not a CORAL MINE! Get your facts straight, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashima_Island
@@zuulhax954 man...Coral isn't a ore, it's a form of life and lives under the ocean. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS *CORAL* *MINE* IN THIS WHOLE DAMNED WORLD
He also claimed manhattan was less then 16 acres in “volume”. Not quite sure what that means but the surface area is over 14,400 acres. It’s fairly obvious the research for the video was absent at best.
Bozo's Playhouse That should be obvious to everyone since I believe that coral is the remains of some sort of sea creature and only found in sea water. Or maybe they are living colonies of sea creatures. I am vague on all the biology of coral, but I know one doesn't dig it out of the ground and I've never heard of its use for fuel.
Probably only 2 of the whole list are actually ghost town. btw, Tianducheng is not a city, but a large community built by a real estate company where there are very few job opportunities.
The French town is a museum, not a ghost town! You got it right in the beginning but then said it was an ghost town. Like you said, they chose not to rebuild the town as a living monument to the horror of war! And the Japanese Island was repopulated as a prison island during WWII as a last resort to mine coal to support the need to power its ships. People were forced to work there and were so miserable that some dove to their death off the cliffs. That's how horrible it was. And the Indian location is a true representation of a ghost town as it's very haunted...by ghosts.

What about Famagusta in Cyprus? Thats a big abandoned and forbidden ghost town that has been empty since 1974 and is heavily gaurded by the UN, turkish army and the cyprus army. 🤷🏼♀️
Centralia is about 2 hours from me.. I've been there so many times over the years now. Everything is so overgrown and torn down that there's not much to look at anymore. They closed down the 'graffiti highway' as well, which was the main reason a lot of people went.

8:19 This city was once temporarily inhabited by a multitude of a majorly masculine individuals, composed of a disproportionately low number of adults compared to a dominantly underage population, most of which were annoying kids who loved screaming obscenities through their headsets. Now it has once again been largely abandoned with the exception of some nostalgic adults that come to visit in remembrance of when this was a bustling city, filled with obscenity-yelling-kids.
The old village of Balestrino, now uninhabited and in ruins, also includes the Del Carretto castle. The village had serious stability problems, required by numerous landslides and by the landslide of the hill on which it resides. In 1962-1963 it was rebuilt slightly further downstream; from that moment the old village was abandoned and nowadays it is in an advanced state of ruin and has acquired the charm of a ghost town. [15] In 2013, access to the old village was forbidden to the public through the habit of three heavy workers canceling a cause of the dangers of collapses and crime episodes that took place inside.

Dude, I saw the one building where price shot zakaev from and I was like, "omg, that's the building!" In started thinking like, " that's the street zakaev was shot!, That's where the helicopter crashed! That's where the building blew up!" Also, loved the "50,000 people used to live here, now it's a ghost town"
Je suis désolé, mais pour appeler un endroit abandonné et le mettre sur votre liste, il ne peut y avoir de gens qui y vivent. Certains des endroits que vous mentionnez ont des milliers de personnes qui y vivent, ce qui les disqualifie entièrement.
Homelessness was never about lack of homes but the distribution. If you move every single homeless somewhere else you could "give them homes", but that would not solve any problem. The abandoned homes are in places where people don't want to live whereas homeless are where people do want to live. TO solve homelessness you need to have enough homes in places where people want to be living, which usually run at premium.
1:07 Hashima was a hardcore 95% humidity coal mining plant and probably would have been like mortal kombat from 1890-1930... after that using stricter POW labour until 1950.

i love how it said that the population of Centrailia, Pennsylvania was around 2,000 people in the year 1890!!!! Uh...that's way freaking wrong the correct year that he was trying to quote was 1980. i know this because i had family that lived there until the Government bought them out in the mid 1990's and not to mention i live less than 1/2 hr away. Please get your facts straight before you make a video...the same goes for the island in Japan it wasn't "coral mining" it was "COAL MINING" that was done there!!!
The first island was used as labor camps by Imperial Japan. Most of the residents were Koreans forcefully drafted by Japan and had to work until their death under horrible conditions. Early 20th century was very grim.
I'm convinced that this guy thought if he added a sound clip of someone calling it a ghost town that it would be considered one of largest abandoned cities in the world...

The good thing about ghost cities is that there is no traffic🤐
I liked it. I enjoyed it. And yep, I'm bored with the sheltering. Loved the comments, as always.
I’m here alone because of the MODERN WARFARE reference!!!! You rock dude!!!!!
This is really cool! I have some ideas about these ghost cities.
Would you mind sharing some? I'm genuinely curious.
@@user-nx2vw3du3o Sure what are you curious about?
@@TrendingTenz By "ideas," do you mean theories about what happened?
Watching this in quarantine just makes these "ghost cities" look normal. Ain't nobody going outside these days
Solution for Ordos Kangbashi: Diplomatic city. Make it a place to wow outsiders.
"although, any island is a sanctuary if humans can't step onto it, right?" Exactly.
Pretty sure I've seen more than one of these places in modern(ish) movies. Or at least parts of them.
This made my top 15 list of TH-cam clips that turned out to be poorly executed or just straight-up stupid.
People don't listen. He said ordos "Feels Abandoned" not Is Abandoned.

8:20 Most of you haven’t played Call of Duty and it shows!
more like you haven't played stalker and it shows....
Dude, I saw the one building where price shot zakaev from and I was like, "omg, that's the building!" In started thinking like, " that's the street zakaev was shot!, That's where the helicopter crashed! That's where the building blew up!" Also, loved the "50,000 people used to live here, now it's a ghost town"
Oh boy how much I die in that town in that mission
Awesome videos....never disappointed!
"The reason for Balestrino's silence is unknown, nobody knows why it was abandoned, when or even why"
Trying to reach the word count?
Reason maybe this

So ur telling me number 10 island could only hold 5k ppl but its bigger then Manhattan..sir what
craco looks like it came straight out of a fantasy movie, it's so beautiful!
Je suis désolé, mais pour appeler un endroit abandonné et le mettre sur votre liste, il ne peut y avoir de gens qui y vivent. Certains des endroits que vous mentionnez ont des milliers de personnes qui y vivent, ce qui les disqualifie entièrement.
One day I will make sure all these place are renewed and make it a place fo peace.
Thank You! ! !
North Brother Island, NY. Reminds me of the movie "Shutter Island".
"Ferb... i know what we are gonna do."
🤣🤣🤣
This just made me realize homelessness has literally no reason to exist like wtf just turn these abandoned towns into homeless shelter's
Homelessness was never about lack of homes but the distribution. If you move every single homeless somewhere else you could "give them homes", but that would not solve any problem. The abandoned homes are in places where people don't want to live whereas homeless are where people do want to live. TO solve homelessness you need to have enough homes in places where people want to be living, which usually run at premium.
Haha :)
That’s assuming homelessness is strictly a supply issue, which it’s not lol
@@ryanjones7215 how can a homeless survive in a ghost city where there is no people for them to beg for money oh find a scrap food
Yes, Drive all the homeless people to the desert. They gonna love it there!
1:07 Hashima was a hardcore 95% humidity coal mining plant and probably would have been like mortal kombat from 1890-1930... after that using stricter POW labour until 1950.
Why i moved here?
I guess it was the weather.
I have actually swum next to Varosha's fences. Nice gazing point of the ghost town and awesome crystal-like beaches

This upsets me only because there are people that are homeless all over the world that could easily inhabit these cities.
... Why would you make a ferris wheel indoors?
Probably either a) because it's blinking cold there or b) because you can!
Or maybe they like being indoors
You could’ve given Drew Binsky & that other guy credit for using their clips..
Want no commercials? Slide red dot to end of video, let video finish, hit replay. No commercials!!!! YW
Or get an ad blocker
Looking at all these develops. I just wonder why Africa is so behind with infrastructure.
It seems like some of the best cities in the world have been abandoned because of politics.
I live about 20 minutes from Centralia, we go often to just hike. Though I don’t recommend it in the summer!
This is why aliens don't come here.
Check out “Fordlandia” in the middle of brazilian amazon.
You forgot to put in your video the city of Fordlândia, Pará, Brazil. It was a industrial city that was worthy for a cople of years!!
Vale a pena pesquisar mais!!
Great video this is very informative I love it
Can't get a house in Ireland and we're taking in 1 million more refugees by 2030, meanwhile there's other countries with massive city's that are empty 🤔
Down here in Argentina a fella build a medieval Town just for fun using disposal materials called Campanopolis and Villa Epecuen is a city abandoned after the sea flooded.
i love how it said that the population of Centrailia, Pennsylvania was around 2,000 people in the year 1890!!!! Uh...that's way freaking wrong the correct year that he was trying to quote was 1980. i know this because i had family that lived there until the Government bought them out in the mid 1990's and not to mention i live less than 1/2 hr away. Please get your facts straight before you make a video...the same goes for the island in Japan it wasn't "coral mining" it was "COAL MINING" that was done there!!!
How many people can post this same video and get away with it? About 38 so far it seems.
The first island was used as labor camps by Imperial Japan. Most of the residents were Koreans forcefully drafted by Japan and had to work until their death under horrible conditions. Early 20th century was very grim.
While they are not really abandoned they don't have nearly the population they were intended to hold. Cool video. Thank you.
I'm convinced that this guy thought if he added a sound clip of someone calling it a ghost town that it would be considered one of largest abandoned cities in the world...
Meanwhie in Manila, Philippines, siksikan kami dito.. HAHA!!
