anybody else have phases where they just binge watch this channel?
I freaking love this channel. One of the most relaxing ones on youtube, it's so nice to just feel like he's carrying you around showing you random cool stuff

Looks like Carpetbagger forgot to blur the swastika. Because as we all know that The Nazi Swastika is the symbol of evil, which original came from India until Hitler stole the swastika and used as his own symbol.
@@soso-mx8nb looks like Carpetbagger forgot to blur The Nazi Swastika because as we all know that The Nazi Swastika is still the symbol of evil. Which originally came from India until Adolf Hitler stole it and used it as his own symbol.

It pains me how underrated this channel is
Is it really underrated when you have nearly 400k subs though?
@@Mossfaerie when jake paul has millions, yes
But 400k is better than 400 subs and I’m starting to love this channel
@@-.Springtrap.- I’ve. Been watching this channel for 2 years
Ah yes, my favorite world leader: Velociraptor.
Watch out President Obama!
President velociraptor 4 more years
finally, a politcal candidate I can get behind.
Velociraptor 2024
Amazing how many votes it got last election 🗳 ;)
It is nice to know that wax figure artists with visual impairments are still able to get work, seemingly up to the point of total blindness.
lmfaoooo
So, the scene with Maculay Culkin, it's supposed to represent the fact that being a child star, he fell into a really bad drug addiction as he grew up for years, but after that, he really sobered up and is now doing a lot better and even has a son with Brenda Song, the woman who played London Tipton on The Suite Life Of Zack & Cody.
They have a kid? I didn't know that. I thought they were just dating
@@Jaheartsjonas Yup!
I had a feeling it was something to do with drugs, like a real life horror type thing
Oh I thought it was a scene from some D-grade horror movie where the kid yells "PANCAKES!" and bites someone's leg. I can't remember the name.

Me: Mom, can we see Johnny Cash?
Mom: We have Johnny Cash at home.
Johnny Cash at home:
That's Marlon Brando playing Johnny Cash.
“I don’t like that he was a nazi sympathizer but I feel bad that someone killed his baby”
I totally agree. I may not agree with some people but their kids don’t deserve to die!
100% agree
I don’t think he was killed on purpose, the kidnapper dropped him from the ladder.
I find it so incredibly funny that despite filming this exact museum three times, it hasn't changed a single bit in those years. No matter how long the Carpetbagger channel goes on, this museum will be there as it was from the very beginning haha
Aren’t all wax museums scary
Also it’s funny how horror ones are cool but ones based off of people are the scary ones
This comment almost read "off people", or people that are off, and that would be scary.
How wild would it be to be locked in that basement alone overnight?
@@paulscarth6949 and if Blumhouse produced it then that would be awesome
Lol I would be jamming out to the dead silence theme lol since I'm very brave
It would remake fnaf
imagine walking through the horror exhibit on mushrooms
@@tactical-funky9565 after the first animatronic scare you would be done💀
This is exactly what I want from all wax museums. Everything just feels, well, _off._ The visible immersion-breaking joints in the mannequins arms, and the surprising number of hands facing the wrong way with their palms up in the air, the oddly incorrect hairstyles, etc. I'd wager my own parents that these models shudder to a grim parody of life at night in order to venerate their dark master.
As someone who is petrified of wax figues, I don't think I'd be too happy seeing them in the dark😶
And they're not behind anything to prevent us from touching them! My automatonophobia says "no thank you" 😖
"Don't like that he was a Nazi sympathizer but felt bad that someone murdered his baby."
What a RIDE
LOL!!! :D To be fair to Charles Lindbergh, lots of folks did NOT KNOW how Bad Hitler was BEFORE WW2. He put on a good front to the world. He believed in Animal rights, he was an Environmentalist and he was a staunch anti communist. Only with the benefit of hindsight (and knowledge from people who were THERE in the Third Reich) what a madman he was. Remember that Franklin Delano Roosevelt refused to believe that the Holocaust was real in 1942 (even when 200 rabbis were protesting on the steps of the Capitol building). Only AFTER the war, when they documented the atrocities with filmmakers and eye witness accounts did even the most ardent skeptics admit that the Nazis were crazy/evil and monstrous.
@@Frankie2012channel I doubt even that was enough, considering how many Holocaust deniers are around to this day.
They look like they can move at any movement and im not having it
This is what I tell people when they ask why I'm scared of statues lol
Same. Definitely when it comes to the basement. As soon as I can't see the figures without using a flashlight I'm out.
@@ashleypetrini4627 righhtt the religious room was probably the scariest
“Hey Ronnie, looks like you need a haircut.” 😂🤣
'Blessed are the meek.'
'Awe I'm glad they are getting something. They've had a hell of a time.'
Nice Life of Brian quote.
@@socialmoth4974 Thank you.
I never knew Reagan had an illegitimate lovechild with Bob Odenkirk
Rob Rodenkirk
LOVE the Simpsons reference! 7:25 Also did anyone else think Johnny Cash looked more like Biff from "Back to the Future?"
I was thinking chevy chase in younger days. But totally agree that he did not look like johnny cash.
Funny as 😂, the wigs, the faces your narration the heavy breathing,hilarious thankyou x 😁👍🏻
The guy who was next to his drag character is Flip Wilson. The female character was Geraldine. He had a show in the early 70s.
The Flip Wilson show.
I just got to say you have saved my life during this pandemic all of your backlogged videos and your new videos I used to travel all over and see stuff like this all the time you are amazing keep doing great work
Literally just watched your recent videos of you traversing almost every haunt in the country and this is BY FAR the scariest.
I can’t disagree
Some of the figures looked nothing like the people they're meant to be. The chamber of horror wasn't the only scary thing there.
Totally agree, some are very accurate, others not so much!
Most are not accurate at all from the pictures I’ve seen of these Americans.
I can see why they put them behind fences. You wouldn't want to meet any of them in a dark alley! Do they really need such a big horror section considering that some of the lights don't work?
This place is amazing. I'm not a big fan of the more modern flashy wax museums, but this place I love.
Thank you Jacob, for touring this wax museum, so I don't have to😅 honestly, I wouldn't have made it past that clown on those steps. I guess my Automatonophobia is more serious than I thought!
I've been here before and it has such an un-easy energy about it. Major backroom vibes. I felt like I was entering another timeline where I'm about to star in my own horror movie and I may never get out.
10/10
I’m going to St. Louis in a few days and I was gonna visit this wax museum, until I watched this video. Thank you for warning me of the pure terror that lies within its walls lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wish I had heard of this as the world's scariest wax museum before i went, because I showed up completely unprepared for such a terrifying experience
Damn, that horror section is neverrrrrr ending!
The military guy in the ww2 room is General Douglas Mcarther. He was a famous general stationed in the Pacific islands during the war.
@@craigbrigode4930 Ooh well done, aren’t you clever👏🏻
@@craigbrigode4930 it’s MacArthur actually...
"I Shall Return"
Kevin from Home Alone is in the Chamber of Horrors because he essentially tortured Harry and Marv. He transformed his house to be his own torture chamber.
No he is in the chambers of horror because of the movie the good son lmao
Wow even some of the non-horror figures were pretty scary looking. LOL!!
Scarier !
I’d get up to the top of those stairs and see that clown and turn right back around. 😅
“And some other royal figures”, it’s just the Queen and her husband but never mind😂
In America we don’t care about kings and queens. Sorry
@@sevinstorey4365 And?
Yeah this guy doesn't know history, politics, or movies at all. Or religion lol
I wish I didn't know who the queen was. 😒
i’m also confused about the room of kids in the horror section but honestly it seems like plenty of adults are TERRIFIED by the prospect of teens hanging out together so idk maybe it’s scary for older folks
The Joker looks more insane than ever.
That's MISTER Captain Spaulding to you, sir!
Wow, they really did johnny cash dirty on that one
Yeah the whole country music section was Louis Tussaud's level of bad even though the other figures were pretty good (except Lady Diana and the baby)
Lived here 10 years. So much history in those buildings on The Landing. Have driven by, walked, and even been in the lobby there. Never passed that point. Live 2 miles south of there. Thanks for sharing. Could show you lots of cool things here in STL.
Yess I always love when you go to a wax museum!
@@goofyrulez7914 yeah
Dude this place is terrifying! I’m so excited you went.
I live about 100 miles south of St. Louis and I had no idea that wax museum was there! That will be a great summer destination for my hubby and me to visit!
This was absolutely delightful. 🤣 You’ve seen some wonderful wax museums in the last few months.
I didn't know that St Louis has a cool wax museum. Thanks Jacob for sharing.
This is what youtube should be honestly, this is calming and fun to watch non of that drama
I appreciate it
Carpetbagger: There’s a guy with a brain
Me: Dang, that IS weird.
Rather than The Hunchback I think that figure was supposed to be Eyegor (Marty Feldman) from Young Frankenstein.
I agree!
Richard Burton played Mark Antony in "Cleopatra". Rex Harrison played Julius Ceasar.
Imagine this being a haunted house attraction with paying actors at an amusement park. They will scare anyone who is afraid of clowns.
I just love history so much, I don’t know what It is that I love about history and the past, but I find history so fascinating.
Wax sculpting is an underrated form of art. It should be used more often.
I can recognize that Macaulay Culkin anywhere! That used to be on display at the Hollywood Wax Museum up until the late 2000's. They too used to have an excellent chamber of horrors, with lots of hidden nooks for scare actors to jump out at you. Then they had to go and auction off all their substandard figures to other museums around the country, and replace them with better crafted ones, when the Madame Tussaud's opened a block away. Now it's just an average forgettable wax museum.
I should've watched the rest of the video before commenting, but yes, those are the "wet bandits" at 24:00, also moved from the Home Alone diorama at the Hollywood Wax Museum.
I am so glad you returned to it!
The first time you went to this Wax Musuem with Adam I will never forget lol! I swear that whole vlog had me laughing. Great to see this Wax Musuem is still up and running. Its literally the World of Illusions for St Louis.
Whoever approved that Johnny Cash needs to be arrested 😂
He was looking rough lol
When I go into wax museum's I'm always wary. It's so dark and quiet in these places I half expect some weirdo to be hiding around the corner waiting to jump scare me.
Laurel was the tall skinny guy, Hardy was the short chubby fellow.
Yes, I jumped at 16:37 . I'll admit it. 18:52 - So that's what happened to the Pig Man from Seinfeld.
Awesome video! I think they should animate the eyes on the occasional figure to move and look at you. The amount of resemblance to the actual people really varies from good to looking like they remade a character to a different character. I agree with you that it is very scary, especially going through by yourself, especially as the only patron!
The soccer player is Lionel Messi. I can't believe I went to St.Louis 3 times and never visited this museum!
Some of the worst wax sculptures that I have ever seen! I love how Whoopi Goldberg’s back was turned so you couldn’t see how botched the face probably was.
Thank you! I was reading all the comments on how great these figures are, and I just don't see it. All of the figures are so rigid, the clothes don't fit correctly and the faces are not very realistic. Also, if you have to ask who some of these figures are, the wax sculptor has not done their job. Alot of the figures seem to share the same head, just dressed up differently. Not seeing what others see I guess.
The commentary is cracking me up 😂 another great video
I liked the “Judas in my mind” Fozzy reference.
This is one of my favourite waxworx you go to and here are a few things I noticed.
Madame Tussauds hand was the wrong way round.
Colour purple means he was a Roman emperor.
Lyndon Johnson waxwork looked a bit like Tom Hanks.
Franklin Roosevelt had a TV remote control in the World War II section on his desk.
I think the one with Macaulay Culkin is showing you the horrors of drug addiction & listening to Bob Marley.
Mark McGwire was the baseball player in the Cardinals uniform. Iron Michael Jordan sounds funny. You be thinking of Iron Mike Tyson.
The Salvador Dali one though 😂💀
That Babe Ruth comment was brilliant XD . Wonderful video Jacob
Love your videos carpet bagger and this one is in the bag.
Richard Burton was Marc Anthony and the guy in the purple robe was Julius Caesar
Yeah, some random guy in a purple robe, had me laugh out loud. I somehow have the idea that Jacob knew very well who that was.
During all the video, I was just thinking this museum really needs a good cleaning. 🤢
Adam the Woo hitting the open road and Carpetbagger hitting creepy wax museums.... oh man, it's a goldmine day today on YT!
Right?
Imagine everything there would come to life at night like in the film night at the museum.
Some of Laclede's sculptures are pretty bad, while certain others look real enuff to jump up & grab u as soon as u walk by! Ever see X-Files 3:14, "Grotesque," featuring gargoyle sculptures w/surprise insides? "Mystery of the Wax Museum" from 1933 is also a creepy classic.
And they deliberately move themselves around to confuse people aka that perfectly normal scene in Chamber of Horrors with the guy from Home 🏠 Alone and Harry and Marve in a separate booth.
Absolutely LOVED the horror scetion! I have the same Ghostface animatronic too!
My gosh the dwarves looked absolutely terrifying 😳
Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are classic comedians. You should check out their films.
They are my favorite comedic duo. I have DVDs of their short films and movies. And I watch them anytime I know that they are on TCM.
That Music in the Chamber Of Horrors was from Southern Comfort with Powers Boothe and Keith Carradine. Its about National Guard Troops trapped in the Bayou with Cajuns! Great Movie!
Really great work here!!
The horror section, then the next horror section… some of the figures in there were genuinely gross and scary. Like, actual nightmare inducing!
I live two hours away from St. Louis and I’ve never heard of this place before. I’ll definitely have to check it out!
I like how some figures look like flawless replicas and some look pretty terrible.
I havent been to a wax museum in years .we on stay home order .
Thanks for the adventure
Wonderful,thank you carpetbagger
This place is pretty random, they get going on a theme drop in some random things, remember what they were doing and pick back up on the theme
Yea well marijuana will do that to you lol
I KNEW YOUD COME BACK HERE LOL I WAS PREDICTING IT LOL
🔮 🧙🏼♂️
My favorite museum ‘s TH-camr ! 🔝👏🏻
Hey you all
Carpet bagger come to you liiiiive
“More specific”
New subbie here😁😁😁😁 I have started following you with "Adam the Woo" and liked you ever since☺️
Fun fact: some of these wax figures were purchased at the Hollywood Wax Museum when they had their auction. Look up Conan O'Brian (sp?) Wax Museum, and you'll see some familiar Wax figures.
Yes, a good chunk of them came from Hollywood
Awesome video carpetbagger
This is the most confusing horror of chambers I encountered....
That makes it scarier because you don't fully understand what's meant to be going on.
It’s like the person who did the wax museum figures just closed their eyes and used the force to make these characters omg it’s so bad lol hahaha
When I was a child I would go to the original San Francisco Wax Museum and so many of these figures look exactly like the ones they had. The only other wax museum that I know of to have an Anton LaVey figure. I want to go to this place! Excellent video as always!
Good video and an excellent wax museum. I definitely encourage, nay, IMPLORE you to check out more wax museums in search of finding any that could top this one. However one thing I would've liked to see is more long shots of the less familiar wax statues, because they have something to say & I feel like they need to be heard! Thank you, Mr. Bagger
The vibe of this place was so off putting and bizarre, I love it. It was truly terrifying without the intent too be. It's like troll 2, it's so bad it's good. Absolutely the best, worst lol
I’m loving your enthusiasm with the video
I'm so glad that someone else calls it Melty Clocks too
Awesome wax museum with realistic scenery
I got you, that's Pope Palpatine with Pope Bilbo Baggins 👍
You didn't know who Lionel Messi was?!?! i'm not even 2 mins in and I'm gobsmacked.
Your Simpsons references make me me do a good ole Hibbert Chuckle
I seriously love this channel
Firstly; love your 'Simpsons/Planet of the Apes'-joke. Second, unidentified figures in order:
#1; George Bush Sr. (H.W.)
#2; General Douglas MacArthur (in the WWII section)
#3: Master Chief from 'Halo' (one of the highest-selling video games of all time)
#4; Woody Allen (director)
