"I owe my soul to the company store".
4:49 Umm. That's an organ.
Why do people leave their belongings?
05:15 can't read cursive. 🙄
What a damned shame..they've got to start teaching cursive in the schools again..or these explorers years from now,Will think they're hieroglyphics..lol lol
Not being rude, but are they really not teaching cursive in schools anymore? Kids can't read cursive?
@@tamarawalker8973 no they're not; lot of under 30 people can't read it
Everything they read is on their phone. Being able to read and write cursive has no value in a capitalist society.
This guy cannot read cursive. My son-just 40-can't either. Why? Because it's not taught in all schools anymore. Too bad.
So true.
It's not that hard to learn
both the wife and I write and read cursive and my grandchildren do, cursive used in the UK?
Cursive writing is still widely taught in Western Europe. Spain, Italy, Portugal, and France have held onto the tradition. And in the UK, joined-up handwriting is still taught in English classrooms.
These houses should be fixed up for our veterans.
the biggest problem is the cost, because the gov spec on veteran housing is way above the typical rental home. Matter of fact, gov spec on low-income housing is fancier than my personal home. (privately owned by me) Everything from water to electrical and even the heights on stair-rails would need to be upgraded. Ever go into an old home and realize the stairs are steep? Yeah, that's' another thing that won't pass muster. Leaky old windows and lack of insulation is another factor. The list goes on!
I could watch vieos on ghost towns all day.
I have been in many abandoned homes over the years and it's amazing what people leave behind.... although not usually tossed around the room, which is usually vandals at a later date. Most times people take whatever they can carry (or fit in the car) and that's it. Maybe they mean to come back again but you never really know. Every case is different. BTW, no running water also means no working sewers (community septic?) so I'm betting the place emptied out quickly after the water was shut off.
Love hearing the history of places. Amazing
I don’t understand why they left all these items in the homes.
Damn, these were once nice houses.
And they are not REALLY all that old for Western PA workers housing. These being built between 1913-25. My house (IN Pittsburgh) was built in 1873!
nice in those days didn't include running water or indoor plumbing.
I live in Pa I heard of this place wasn't due to something in the water
Beautiful place. Could see myself living there. Just sad to these beautiful homes in that condition. Ccool video. 😊
These houses are full of lead paint just peeling on the walls. Be careful !
Every house built before 1978 has lead paint. I don't think these people are gonna eat the paint chips like Doritos.
@@jamesslick4790 Walking on the fallen paint chips grinds them, spewing lead elements in the air, inhaled by the walker. It floats like asbestos particles.
I go past there everyday and used to live in Worthington. I've explored those mines across the road extensively as well. I had a buddy that lived in Yellow Dog I fish Buffalo Creek all Pf Trout Season. Last time I actually drove through their was when my buddy lived there. There are mine portals behind the hunting club that you can go into also off mushroom farm road at the end of the bridge are a few old mine portals you can go explore. Even back in the mid 2000s there were a few abandoned houses in there. Who do you go see or talk to about walking up in there? As I never thought about walking in there with the gates. I haul limestone from Worthington Quarry and the New Bison underground limestone mine right next to the Mushroom Mine. I drive Mushroom farm road anywhere from 4 times a day to 17 times a day to the Armstrong Cement Plant in West Winfield at the end of Mushroom farm road. If you like to explore old mines I'd suggest going to what we call 40 foot there are dozens of old mine portals you can go into that go for miles. Some of them even go into the old Mushroom farm mines. The Mushroom Mine is not as big as it once used to be at one time it was the largest. Good video sir on of the best so far I've seen on Yellow Dog. The mining history in this area and to Bradys Bend is fascinating.
Looks like a pretty area.
So sad the Family's are gone, if i had the cash I would buy it all and invite the families to return
I was like I could live here until you said apalacia and naw I'm good.
Hidden truth somewhere here 😊
Interesting
Nice I grow up on Long Island Babylon 1964 it was nice town but left to the city 🌆 but the suburbs life is good slow nice 😊 2024 USA 🇺🇸 now Philadelphia 15 ys ❤
Love these houses! They are huge. Great history even if fairly recently occupied. Too bad about the
E Coli contamination! Would have been a peaceful place to live. The mileage to the current Grocery store might have been mentioned. Great video!
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing this history. ❤❤❤
That's ridiculous.
Your At the top of the food chain How you present your stories
Was that a ghost dog around 14:52
You should check Old Number 2 and Old Number 5.
This was a solo trip for me in July. I had the best time. The people are Wonderful and helpful! I plan on going again! Great video! Thank You!
I honestly prefer your crime documentaries to these. The research and investigation on the former is so great that the others usually turn out to be not as half exciting. Just saying.
I'm the opposite. I like his explores more and consider him one of the better ones that do them.
Wow!
You put some live footage, slowly cross fading to pictures that is not relevant from the live footage. We assume it should be the same places but I look closely and they are not. Maybe the letter boxes one is good but you take it from totaly different angle. After the letters boxes one, it's all not relevant. Just some random images. Editing is more than V.O. and random images if you want it to be "documentary".
We are shown random discarded pieces of these peoples' lives. There need not be continuity in the cross faded content. The casting into disarray of Yellow Dog by fundamental inviability of the town without an industry or benefactor - in a way the discontinuous editing is congruous with the town's fate. Let the statement be.
So you can do it better so go fucking do it and show us hoe it's done smuck.
