to my dear little boy....
just remember, when mommy dies, I want an all natural burial... I want a betula negra planted on me so I become the tree so you can sit under me and I can protect you forever. my branch arms will always be there to hold you no matter how old you get...
A lovely sentiment amidst such darkness.
❤ right back at ya, lamont... stay safe out there :)
@@katfishkobain8809 awww thank you! I came from the earth, and want to give back to the earth.... have a good day:)
Yeah then they can chop you down and use you for firewood
This is really beautiful ❤
This place is beyond saving. The person who lets this place deteriorate ought to be ashamed.
Ashamed? They should be criminally charged!
I'm surprised at the Board of Health hasn't moved in to do something about it yet.
But they dead
The person or the autorities?
@@martinhurst4653 what the what the hell nn
The fact there’s fresh flowers means family members still visit this place and have to continue seeing these conditions 💔
Plastic flowers
@@eugeneqmil artificial flowers do get old and start to change colors. Those flowers were recently placed on those graves.
Where's this at, West Virginia?
@@jonburrows2684 Pennsylvania . Btw I thought you were Dead?
@@shonchon588 no, I faked my death for reasons like this here.
I can’t imagine how it would feel going to pay respect to my loved one and seeing them leaking out.
This is unbelievable.
It's sick
@@_west33... Lamont clearly has no respect for the dead because he spit on a dead persons grave
I’m not going to leak my fluids out. I’m getting cremated.
Yup I’m getting burned to a crisp and be thrown in a lake or planted to become a tree 🌳
I like how you mention the “sweet smell” because it’s true. I work in a funeral home and I remember this man was in refrigeration for about 7 months before he could be properly cremated. It was a coroner case too so the body was autopsied and decomposed faster. The family did a witness cremation and the man looked like rotten pulled beef and while it smelled gross, there was a sweet scent to it. Let’s just say I no longer eat barbecue ribs- or blueberry muffins for that matter.
When I was younger there was a family tomb from the early 1800s and it was out in the middle of nowhere, just abandoned farm land on the NH/Maine border. I didn't take anything or disrespect the vault in any way regardless everything was pretty well decomposed all the caskets and remains because it was open to the elements. It actually smelled really good like wood and rich earth with an underlying sweetness that could only be human decomposition.
It makes me wonder , when I visit my families cemetery it always smelled kinda like fresh flowers ! It's like now that I think about it ! Plastic flowers don't have a smell too them ! 😮 My wife and , I will be beside her , are under the shade and smell of a MAGNOLIA TREE ! 🎉
It's weird you mention that because that smell always reminded Me of some kind of rubber or polymer I remember they used to make toy wrestlers out of. I only make that connection because when I did smell that smell you're speaking of it triggered that memory in My subconscious regarding the a smell I forgot even existed.
Human meat is quite sweet - we have a high blood sugar content, because our brains use lots and lots of it.
Horse meat is sweet as well. Many people don’t like it for that reason, plus the arbitrary ethics standpoint….
The sweet smell of death in a natural death usually occurs 2 weeks to a month before passing. I work in Hospice and have become immune to the smell.
This is precisely why I want no grave at all.
They are all forgotten in the end.
My family should spend that money on something that gives them joy.
I agree.
Hence why I said to toss me in the fireplace then put in a plastic tub and placed in the bathroom since I like the bathroom. My funeral is already taken care of anyway. So it'll be easy for my family when I die and I'm only 38. They also won't have to worry about the house either as it's paid off. So aside from basic utilities, my family is taken care of with all the Bills.
Xactly.
Cremation cost for 4000 to 7000 and once the service fees are done it could cost as much as a funeral.
@@DEOTMBD I did one cremation for a thousand in queens, ny. I don’t want people staring at me when I’m dead.
It's amazing how quickly a deceased person is forgotten, as though they never existed at all. You would be shocked to learn how many people die and have NO ONE show up at their memorial. In this case, a staff member of the funeral home usually attends so there is at least someone there to pay respects to the deceased.
trust me, when we die we won't know if anyone will come to our grave. it doesn't matter
@@soulless_mermaid666 did the deceased tell you this?🤣
@@xxUkiyo no , actually I'm a ghost myself
Well somebody was there. There are flowers!
This is why people should donate their bodies to science and be cremated. Saving bodies in boxes is silly. Nothing lasts forever.
This is gonna happen to EVERY. DAMN. CEMETERY in the world in a manner of centuries. I will never allow myself to be placed in a "dead man's drawer", as Funeral Directors jokingly call Mausoleums....
I'm gonna pay to have my body sent into the sun or some shit. That'd be rad

If there is black mold outside you can only imagine how much is in the walls, underneath the building.
The fluids on the floor look like embalming fluid, and fluids from the bodies. Dude carry a mask all the time from now on. Your videos are wonderful you show so much respect. Please dont hurt yourself for our entertainment. Take care of you too.

@@deleqtronica8733 If covid is so dangerous there would be piles of dead homeless in the streets! They have low immunity and yet it's mostly people who got the safe vax that are dying...weird. Last year NO mention of the seasonal flu? It's like it totally took the year off...unlike the previous years prior! Virologists in labs wear FULL pressure suits, to stay safe when working with deadly viruses, but a clothe mask is suppose to 'protect' the rest of us? Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s bad enough that the place isn’t properly taken care of but the audacity of people just coming and dumping their garbage is awful. I don’t know how people can be so disrespectful
This world we live in is NOT what we've been led to believe. Money is first & anything else is secondary. This video makes my statement factual!!!
I applaud Lamont for making all of us aware of this.

Anne.....well it's not disrespectful to the ones buried there......it's disrespectful to the remaining families.
@@johnbuckles3300 now you know that’s who I was talking about
Annie, you just never have worked with the public. I’ve had people shit in fitting rooms, dump personal garbage in our dumpsters, wet their pants and continue to try on clothes…. People are disgusting!
You mentioned the record keeping for defunct cemeteries, but I want to let you know, that where I live in North Carolina, there’s a large cemetery my dad was buried in, and about 30-40yrs prior, my grandma had purchased four plots there. Well, the plans showing the plots were old and hard to read. Go figure. They put my dad in the ground, and had to take him back out to move him again, because they read the plans upside down and buried him in the wrong spot the first time. This is a very well up-kept cemetery, with lots of people buried there, it was traumatic to me. I had just turned 18 the month before and I went through literal hell. Probably didn’t help that he died because he took his own life and I found him. But that’s been 20yrs ago now, the pain and heartache has never gone away, I’ve just learned how to live my life with the pain. 😢
I’m sorry for your loss, I hope you can find peace in life ❤
I am so deeply sorry.
It’s absolutely ridiculous that people would let this happen. Thanks for bringing attention to this.
I couldn't imagine somebody scraping up the money to bury their loved ones and the cemetery ends up being condemned with nobody keeping up with it and not having enough money to transfer their loved one.
It happens alot, and Lamont has covered them. This is a great commercial for CREMATION.
@@stellarocquie7957 You're spot on, that's what will happen with my remains! Makes sense. Who knows what will happen inthe future unless your are buried. with the entertainment industry stars, or you are a vet or spouse of a vet.
I couldn't give two s**** about what happens to my body I want it to be as inexpensive as possible to get rid of it but this is absolutely appalling!
@@lectornox I feel the same way. I don't give a damn what happens to my body. Bury it in a forest somewhere for all I care
Free yo Grandma!!!!!!
Mausoleums usually give this vibe of peace and and tranquility that invites you to meditate about your life.... that is if you're there during the day!
In Mansfield,Texas there's a cemetery in a shopping center.
Back in 2005 when the devopers were building the Mansfield Towne Crossing center they found an anbondrd cemetery.
They built a fence around it and it sits between On The Border and Olive.Garddn.😅😊
Where I live, there’s a Best Buy with a whole cemetery right behind it. It’s strange bc it’s such a busy shopping center
There's one in greenville north carolina in the mall parking lot.
I live in the Mansfield, TX area I was so shocked to know that was a cemetery. I thought it was a mini park or something at 1st until I ran across the history
Surely this is completely illegal to let this happen to people who trusted the burial officials.
The sad thing is the people responsible for this are allowing it just to cut upkeep costs. It's extremely disrespectful and sacrilegious to the departed as well as to their families. And don't call me Shirley.
They probably died too.
deends on how old the bodies are ik after 20 years i bleieve rules are diffarent
@@NickyD Yeh after 20 yeats dead body has less rights than b4. Most of it is rotted away so no rix of it becoming vengeful zombie.
They're croaked so going to be hard to prosecute them.
Yes, bodies leak when they’re decomposing, right through the caskets. In a mausoleum, under each casket, there is a trough that tilts to the back where all of the chambers are connected to a drain pipe that empties into a septic tank; there is also a small stack pipe that draws fresh air in to keep things flowing and lessens decomposition odors. If the stack pipe isn’t maintained by pulling out leaves and debris, it plugs up and the drains won’t work at all, causing fluid to build up, which is a combo of rehydrated body liquids and condensation(there’s a LOT of condensation) and will drip out and down the front.
I thought once they are embalmed that decomposition stops?
@@bridgetbright6258 Hi there. Embalming only slows down decomposition for a little while; just enough so they don’t smell during time before burial. The embalming fluid also is tinted so the body looks more natural after the blood is drained. Placing the body in the refrigeration unit after it’s prepared(embalming, clothing, makeup and hair) does most of the work at slowing decomposition before the wake and burial 💕
I wondered how burial locations like this worked in terms of decomposition- thank you for explaining!
…And this fulfills my “you learn something new every day” quota. Thank you.
Oooh ok! Thanks for the lesson! I never knew....so let me ask something else...how do some bodies stay pristine after years being under ground? I believe Medger Evers body was in that condition when they went to unearth him...thanks again 😀
Why is it the families have not sued whoever is or are responsible for this! It’s is creepy and heartbreaking to see!
That's OUTRAGEOUS. Thanks for posting this and bringing it to light.
As a mother who has to go visit her son at a cemetery I'm just beyond heartbroken for them. I hope this place can get some love because no one deserves a resting place like this.
You call it rest the soul and spirit ain't there no more
@@herbertamaya2215 Absent from the body, present with the Lord.
I’m so sorry you have to visit your son in a cemetery :( praying for your peace
so sorry for the loss of your son. No mother should ever half to bury her son. as a mother of an only child whom happens to be a son, my heart hurts for you. You said it so well. Honestly, no one deserves this and in my mind a good old fashioned green burial would be better than this.
So sorry for the loss of your Son..
When I die, take the parts you need & burn the rest. My Body is a Shell that holds my Soul for a little while.
I won’t need it where I’m going 🙏🏼
Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust
Oh there was a place, they took peoples bones and even whole bodies if you chose to be cremated. The put pvc pipe in you to look like you still have your bones and limbs for the viewing. They also burned whatever and put those ashes in the urn and gave it to your family. They took your parts and sold them on the black market.
No thank you. Why people want their bodies burned to ashes is beyond me.
@@stanstanly3812 I’d rather have my ashes blown away with the wind. The thought of my lifeless body decomposing in a box doesn’t sit well. Each to their own I suppose.
@@stanstanly3812 why keep your remains in a box? What is the purpose of that? To me burials and mosaleams are a total waste of real estate. It's not like new land is being made.
@@Ryan-re1rs I’m dead. I Don’t care.
There will be No Viewing for me.
This is happening at my grandparents' mausoleum as well. The owners essentially abandoning it and it has been locked down while waiting for someone else to buy the mausoleum.
God Bless you Lamont for bringing this sad cemetery to light.
So disrespectful! I feel so bad for the families and the deceased.
Hello gorgeous how are you doing today
@@lambrtaustin3125Bro got straight to the point lmao
Dude, don't go into places like that without a mask! Protect yourself.
Yeah I agree put that mask on Lamont At Large please!!
Yeah exactly because of mold and other bad stuff abandoned places have in the environment.
Without supplied air.
And gloves....a HAZMAT uniform needed!
Yes!! Idk why I held my breathe while he was inside 🤣🤣
Thank you so much for covering this story, Lamont. It's yet another good example of why mausoleums are not a good idea for burial. There are more and more mausoleums all over the US falling into disrepair and abandonment.. because sooner or later the money for perpetual care runs out or is embezzled. Besides, buildings don't last forever. Aquamation for me! And I've told my family I will come back and haunt them if they don't respect my wishes. I will too!
That’s awful! So disrespectful and disgusting for people to dump trash in a cemetery that still has people in it. Someone needs to care for it and save the remains of those left behind in the buildings. 😢🙏🙏❤️
Oh, how sad. This is disgusting and a travesty to the memories of these decedents! Thanks Lamont for exposing this - maybe now something will be done about it!
Doubtful
Are you kidding? This place has been known about for years. Everyone is giving the story of "It's not my/our responsibility!" Some of the families with family members interred here have about given up!
Exactly
@@misszsazsa6288 That's a shame.
This is just gross
Someone needs to be held accountable for this! I feel terrible for the families who's loved ones are interred here!
I feel u but...Do u see some of those dates. Once upon a time someone kept it together, but time goes by and they die also. We just never know, years and years have gone by. I don't think it's anyone's fault.
They're Dead, They Don't Lnow The Difference! lol
@@TheEarl666 not a damn soul lol
I think they’re righ as time goes by you care less. My dad died in 92 and I’m lucky to visit once a year. Sounds terrible but it’s just reality.
Government should buy the land and rescue those poor souls in the concrete lockers and give them a proper soil burial!
This is two years ago, so I wonder what the latest news is on this place.
Just criminal, a shame and so disrespectful to let it get to this degree of decay.
WOW, who would think that only 7 years of being closed down, that so much deterioration would happen! Lamont, you have some really cool content that you share! Love your channel! From L.A. Cali.
Black mold is nothing to play with, it can make you very sick. Stay safe!
Not all black molds are toxic...
@@TheSkete Better to be safe than sorry until one knows what type of mold it is... I wish Lamont hadn't gone inside or at minimum wore a N95 mask.
It can kill you actually
@@lookingforwyatteearp3137 Is that actual? Wow. I must google this.
@@SuperTamig It sure can.
It’s unbelievable that the state hasn’t stepped in and helped. So sad.
They couldn't care less.
But it’s not even their fault tho stop blaming the states for this we don’t pay taxes for a bunch of dead ppl 💀💀😐
@@Camaro2ssboy no we pay taxes to abunch of Alive people that wants you dead
They gotta give that tax payer money to the Billionare's fuck the peasants.
They are dead
I used to stay on the next street over and was told to not walk over there and now know why !!! This video made me discover Lamonts videos and love of Cemeteries.
Thank you for showing this! Hopefully Someone can help the desceased find a better resting place! How sad for the loved ones to see their friends, families, and lovers in this state!
Imagine the amount of money it costs to have your loved one interred only to end up in an abandoned building. Were the families reimbursed at least? Edit: the deceased should be relocated at no extra cost to the surviving members the family.
Technically all buildings will some day be abandoned buildings. I agree though once the mausoleum has been condemned the owner should be forced to move the bodies at their expense. If someone really did get tricked into buying a graveyard and they thought it was a house I can see them not wanting to front the bill. But once all that gets worked out whoever owns the graveyard you have to pay to have the bodies either exhumed and a new mausoleum built or just move somewhere else.
My thoughts exactly man..
This makes me think back to what happened with the Memorial Mound in Alabama, and I thought that was sad enough.
Your burial plot in England is only guaranteed for 100 years after which they have the rights to remove bodies from their graves & relocate them or add other bodies on top of the original coffin..a big waste of money really as your burial plot isn’t permanent.
@@sallybutton6237 kill pp
Chris Yanaitis, of the Yanaitis Funeral Home, has made it his mission to remove bodies from the mausoleum. 1 By forgoing any profit for his funeral home, he has been able to keep the cost around $3,000 for each court action, removal, and cremation involving a past funeral home client. Since 2014, Yanaitis has been able to remove 15 individuals.
What I want to know,is what the family of the person buried in 2008 was thinking?
The place was already condemned and on the way down in the early 2000's,but they still chose to be buried there?
@@richiefranklin76 Many people have burial plans, as we know. So, their arrangements are as they saw fit at the time. That doesn't imply that the family of the deceased maintain the plot. Some people actually bury family members and never have a thought about it again. It's a "good riddance" type of thing
@@richiefranklin76 yeah the person or people who buried that person in 2008 most likely hated them
@@BlackHammerJeff what 😂
@@Isnt_She_Lovely_ or maybe it wasn't in that state in 2008 🤔🙃
God bless the deceased and shame on whoever let this place fall into disarray, so sad.
This is so sad. Cannot believe the state would allow this and not hold someone accountable! It’s disgraceful! 😡
You really don't have to risk your health in order to entertain and educate us Lamont. You go above and beyond the call of duty for us. You are greatly appreciated.

Yeah it disrespectful
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, I agree ❤️ so very sad and heartbreaking
Boo f-ing good!
I advise you to follow Dr. Zakir Naik.
From what I understand about the leaky stuff on the floor and out of the wall IS actually body fluid from the caskets. Embalming fluid and blood, and just the body breaking down. All mausoleums leak, but newer ones have drainage pipes when the coffin "burps" the fluid. That's what they call it. I have a friend in the funeral home business. It's really gross and not to mention how it makes the people visiting their loved ones feel. Thank you for reporting. It is interesting seeing these! Oh yeah, I'd definitely change my shoes.
You're correct about the embalming fluid leaking on the floor and walls, however morticians clear blood, and bag organs from the deceased to slow decomposition and mottling of skin tissue for viewings. However this does not stop moisture from affecting the gases from causing the remains to liquify so to speak. If the "burp" chambers aren't properly cared for, this is the result! It is an absolute shame and disgrace when cemeteries and mausoleums are outright abandoned like this!
You have taken me to doany fascinating places with you, my knees are gone, can't walk much going with you and your well researched stories is wonderful ,thanks so much my friend.
This is so incredibly sad.😥 I hope someone comes in and relocates the remaining bodies to someplace better.
Please be safe, Lamont. That type of residue is a potential disaster.
Lisa Knox yes but please is unneeded it’s very very annoying
Heartbreaking. Do you know the thousands of dollars they charge for burials should be covering the upkeep? 😢. Probably squatters trashing the area.
Very sad. I would hate the thought of my loved ones resting place to be like this. Probably family don't have the money to move them. But in my eyes it should either be the owner of the property or the utharity . Thanks for sharing this it was interesting. Love from West Yorkshire UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Wow, my 13 year old Son Julien is in a "Public Mausoleum" at Memory Gardens in Lake Worth, FL - where you were at about the "Killer Clown" unsolved mystery - and seeing this horrifies me - it's supposed to be cared for by law in Florida at least for at least 100 years. I actually get nervous that something like this could happen to my Son's mausoleum when I go and visit with him...
What happened to your son, he died so young.
That’s correct Perpetual care is at least for 100 years. I grew up next to a cemetery in Washington DC named Glenwood Cemetery. I could look out of my bedroom window and see a large portion of the graveyard. It’s beautiful and very well maintained. I hope you do not have to endure this! This is so damn sad!
So young. My condolences to you and your family.
I'm so so sorry for your loss and I hope and pray your son's mausoleum is well kept
I also lost my daughter at 3 yrs old. I had her interred but would love to move closer to me. 5-6000 is the price.
Sorry for your loss.
As a former funeral service advisor, you can do what you want, but personally I would never entomb any loved one in a mausoleum. This type of thing goes on frequently, especially if the cemetery cheaps out and purchases a mausoleum that doesn't have the proper ventilation, and casket trays are supposed to be placed underneath and are missing.
How long does a body stay intact in a mausoleum
@@dlamininikiwe8107 yea I wanna know that too.
@@dlamininikiwe8107 Define intact. Embalming will help keep decay away for give or take a week but things will start breaking down after that regardless of burial choice.
@@kangaroomommy4457 once there is decay isn't there smell? I am confused how it works cause with dust to dust the flesh turns into dust what happens to a body in a tomb?
@@dlamininikiwe8107 Ask A Mortician has a lot of videos about this if you want more in depth information but yes, there's a smell. Unless you are cremated with fire or alkaline hydrolysis there will be decay and smell. A crypt burial is very similar to a ground burial as far as the breakdown of the body. A good, maintained crypt will have drains, vents, and fans behind the scenes to reduce the smell. However, depending how the corpse drains in a crypt the body may somewhat mummify, preserving bone and skin a little longer than a ground burial. In 20 years most of the decomposition is usually done. Hope that helps.
So glad you were able to get this video hope that the cemetery will be kept up better maybe someday somebody will take care of it again!
Oh my God...I live down here in Hanover Twp..but lived on Jumper Road..I never seen this place. My heart goes out to all who have to lay at rest under these circumstances 😪 💔..Someone needs to be held accountable for this!!
This story brought me to tears. My Granddaughter is interned in a Mausoleum. I can’t begin to think this could happen. I pray the city /state steps in and helps the relatives relocate their precious departed.
❤️
Mona, my son is also in a Mausoleum as well and I would be horrified if this happened. Like you I just can't imagine how this could happen. These poor people. I pray they can all find another resting place so they can Rest in Peace.
💙
I'm sorry
@@frandistabile4723 I'm sorry
I live 10 minutes from this cemetery & it's a shame what has happened there. A few years back, a group of volunteers went & cleaned the grounds up. I know it was also tied up in litigation for a while with multiple lawsuit. The whole situation is sad!

It doesn’t take too many generations before you are forgotten. There is a new cemetery near us that is just a field of wildflowers. No grave markers, just big rocks placed on walking paths with names engraved on them. You can be cremated or buried without embalming, in a linen sack, cardboard casket or wicker casket. I like the idea.
@Lamont At Large I too have come up on unattended cemetery and it has not had a keeper since 1970 fifty plots and the ones that are buried their tops of their graves are opening cause of trees growing through disheartening
Even King Tut was messed with. Cremation for me.
Yup, KT was definitely a victim of incest! Sad!
Natural burial for me. No CO2 emissions baby
The state needs to step in at this point and move those remains. I am absolutely sickened.

Wow this is so sad considering that those people did not pass terribly long ago, meaning that a lot of them aren’t forgotten. Very depressing
Honestly, if I had the $$, I wouldn't think twice about moving all of the deceased to a better place. Such a shame. 😔
I hear you Heidi. 🙏🏻🙌🏻
If I remember correctly from watching a video awhile ago someone else made back when all the court stuff was going on there was a funeral home that was willing to move the bodies not for free but at a very reduced cost. But between the courts and just not being any living family this is where it is at. The first video I saw of this place had a lot more bodies still in place.
@@elderlypoodle9181 with your subscribers chipping in. $2 we could do it!
Great thought, with every subscriber chipping in a buck or 2...Heidi, your dream could easily be realized. Just think of that...I will be one of the generous ones who will donate. Please let me who will step. up to spearhead such a "drive"?
That is such a sweet idea! You have a beautiful soul.
I love how the plant was growing from the muck on the floor. Circle of life. Little bits of us go on forever. We are never really gone , just different.
This one is so true
Lamont, I grew up around there. I see the name Tommy Van Scoy, Sr along the bottom left row. His wife Elizabeth is near him. Tommy Van Scoy was a famous jeweler in the area. He even sponsored an annual car race at Pocono. His son, Tom Jr. was also a rescue care driver.
I wonder if that is him?
So obviously you come across some pretty strange things on your adventures.
Have you ever had times where something unusual or unexplainable happens when you visit these places ?
Not saying things have to be wrote off as paranormal or such, but just odd or simply can't be defined.
If so, a video highlighting such events would be neat.
As always, great work 👍
I will always be skeptical of above ground burials. This is just confirmation on why. Give me back to the earth once I have finished my journey here on earth. six feet under is the safest way.
Unless you are in a casket inside a concrete vault. Then you are definitely not returning to the earth.
@@bigbluegpr not to mention all your body fluids are replaced with preservatives so a body can literally stay intact for a very long time.
@@Michelle-ce1qh Embalming is an optional service and isn't required for burial. In natural burials, no chemicals are used and you can simply be wrapped in a cloth shroud. There is a county in my state where you can be cremated outdoors on a pyre, whicn is my preference.
Cremation and scattered Ashes.
I'm currently getting my associates degree in mortuary science and yes that sweet smell is decomp. Dead bodies give off a distinctive, sickly-sweet odour that's immediately recognisable and hard to forget. This is very disturbing to see. Unprofessional and Disrespectful is an understatement. Wow. Thank you for the video Lamont
Don’t they embalm the bodies?
I was a surgical nurse- I will never forget the smell of burnt flesh
@@Ramos.ermalinda maybe the embalming fluid? Plus, fat melts after time
Yes and even some people don't wish to be embalmed or they weren't embalmed properly
Embalming only slows the process. It doesn’t stop the decomp
Cremation avoids situations like this. Cheaper, & you’ll be closer to your loved ones…….that’s the route I’m going.
A lot of people are going that route now
Give your friends a place to come see you my friend got cremated and they wouldn’t give out any ashes
D G23 where? You're just in a ground and not all family members want tot share their loved ones' ashes.
Me too, and situations like this, just helps me make my decision to be cremated more secure.
@@cheetahlover156 people can love your family member as much as you do
You'd think they can apply grout to each resting place compartment to seal them off. But it's too late for that now for this property. I love to see your videos Lamonte, very well done.
What’s even more shameful is that legally, at least in Missouri, after like 40 years of abandonment, a person can buy the property and level it to build whatever they want on top of it.
This is so sad, a true breach of promise. The State should re-inter these people.
The State says that it is the responsibility of the county. The county doesn't want to get stuck with another abandoned property.
Wouldn't that be considered a bio Hazzard?
@@darleneshriver3270 I think most people would consider it a Biohazard.
It would be really nice if some other funeral homes, cemetery/moseleum owners and community would come together to clean this up the best they can for the deceased and families 💔
Sorry but this is beyond saving
I agree and donate spaces for these poor people to be reinterred somewhere or even cleanup the cemetery ground for them to be reinterred there so very sad and heartbreaking
Ummm... Businesses need to help their own business. This is a competitive field.
@@davidpalmer7175 yes I know that but this is also about respect and dignity not just money
This place needs to be razed!!!
Great video. Thank you for uploading this. I’m surprised that door into the building is open.
As tragic as this is to the families... it makes me wonder, why is it that the shattering of the illusion of ignoring decay bothers us so much so? The fluids, the mold, the rot, it all happens whether we see it or not. All things return to dust, to be born anew in another form, take solace in that. The ugliness of decay is no different than the beauty of growth.
I agree. I see so many who want to believe they can protect their loved one from decomposition, but it happens and that’s okay.
After going in there I would clean your shoes really good. That fluid was from inside those caskets. There was possibly fluid from the bodies on that floor and it's on your shoes.
Edited: just like everyone has been saying in the comments. You should've put on a respirator before you went in there because it will ruin your lungs since there is a lot of mold in there.
Need to throw them shoes in the trash
@@louisegross3886 yeah honestly
Ever think of becoming a detective?
Nasty why would you go in there
You need a respirator to go in there cause its very harmful on your lungs
That's terrible that graves are being left in that condition. Couldn't the mayor of the city hire a couple of gardeners to trim the grass and give it a tidy up?
It’s really a waste of time those ppl families forget about them 😂😂😂
Yes. He could
As I look on, I'm just devestated. I just hope that this place can get some love and respect, because no one deserves such a resting place.I don't know how people can be so disrespectful. I'm watching it from Chicago.
What's leaking out is rain water.
The roof has an issue with keeping the rain water out and water gets into. In 90% of the cases these what happens.
It is unlikelly that decomposing body material would escape. Since it would also have to go through the coffin.
With coffins being still intact it would not be likelly that body material would be washed out with rain water. However the water will get painted by contacting rust, dust or other materials.
It is quite common for the embalming fluids to escape as a result of poor embalming practice and unconditioned spaces without adequate air movement. The coffin seals and are no match for an “exploding” corpse.

Be safe Lamont. That looks like ☣ biohazard and very unsafe. That's so sad to see a cemetery not kept. I hope something changes for the better there. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, crazy! Thanks for sharing!!
What a shame. This should constitute abuse of a corpse if this was done simply out neglected without a legitimate explanation. Seeing people's loved ones resting places be neglected to such an extent. Especially considering these peoples families or themselves paid for a service. A final service. Considering it is illegal to damage a grave site, neglecting one to this extent should also be illegal.
It's unfortunate that someone can't restore the mausoleums and mow the grass. It looks like a beautiful piece of land, and that stained glass in one mausoleum is beautiful.
I wouldn’t go in unless I’m in a class A suit with supplied air.
I thought the same thing! This would be a great opportunity for some TH-cam channel that showcases renovations, etc.. They'd get viewers while doing something really meaningful. They could do "Mausoleum Makeover" (not trying to be funny) because, Lord have mercy,, this place needs some divine intervention!
I think the stained glass is worth saving from the whole structure.
This is absolutely heartbreaking. I hope someone with a big heart could donate time or funds to facilitate the removal and reburial of these people who meant so much to someone in life. Everyone deserves to Rest In Peace.
If the building is so unsafe, why is it OPEN TO THE PUBLIC? That makes no sense. The person that was buried in 2008 probably didn't have a family or something and they just decided to put them there. Sad. There's no decorations or flowers on their casket. Did anyone else pause the video like I did to read the names and the dates of the people there? It's heartbreaking to have their caskets in that state. Should have been treated with more respect. Rest in peace 🙏 I'm glad that you went to visit them at least. The part that I found captivating was the potted plant that was starting to grow... With a place surrounded by so much heartbreak, neglect and death it was interesting to also see death coming together with new life...
The people who condemned it don't care.
Hey lamont!! Great video. Any update on the deceased being moved? Did they finally find a permanent burial place? Is the mausoleum still standing? Take care.
That stained glass amazing! It's sad when cemeteries get abandoned.
I hope it's saved and relocated
Seems like the only thing NOT in disrepair.😲
I'm surprised some kids haven't busted it up with rocks.
Sad.😢
💔
🤘
It looks like it was probably a nice place at one time. :(
Its a beautiful stained glass piece
Agreed
Abandoned cemeteries and mausoleums should fall to the responsibility of the city or county government to maintain. This is deplorable!
It is not like we have The Pyramids or some historical civilization that the public sector kicks in to maintain.
it's not the citys fault
@@imzackson then what solution do you have? Obviously the owners of the property won’t be fixing this.
@@ThePursuitofHappiness1988 1 ST and fore most make better death plans. in this case it's the relatives problem to deal with it's a bit assassin to think you can live in a above ground tomb FOREVER for the meager price paid . But no mater the end result it is not the govt job to take care of them with tax payer dollars.
I agree exactly but ppl are assholes they dgaf now days
Part of me was like "maybe some of that stuff running off the walls is dirt from the rain", but then I thought about it and so much damage and deterioration happened the pressure in those vaults (dont know the actual term) got messed up and the bodies popped. It happens when not sealed correctly.
Just thought you might want consider, the phrase is, "I saw this..." not, "I seen this..." it's important when posting online. You're content is important and well done. I just think you should watch that one language quirk. We all have them. 👍🏻
Those fun liquids are what’s called human soup. Putrefaction occurs as part of the decomposition process, and when a body is left in a sealed casket the lack of oxygen combined with a dozen other factors causes the soft tissue to liquify. As the body decomposes, gasses build up and eventually the expanding gas will cause the tissue to rupture and explode, and eventually the gas will fill the casket and the pressure will cause the gasket to pop and the casket will leak. You don’t notice it in a ground burial and a properly maintained mausoleum with a properly maintained drainage system won’t ever show these signs either.
The real problem here with moving remaining bodies is going to be the numerous biohazards the bodies present. Don’t forget that not only are we talking about human soup in ruptured caskets but whoever does the cleanup is contending with untold gallons of formalin which is heavily carcinogenic. The bodies at this point will also probably need to be cremated unless they haven’t liquified yet, though I wouldn’t put a lot of money on that being much of a possibility. At this point it’s probably better to seal the whole thing up so the formalin doesn’t seep into the ground or present an undue hazard to the living.
Why don't they just did holes right there and put them in ground there. Wouldn't that be smart. Honest volunteers and county hole digger machine.
Make a wall plaque with names in it.
@@susankellermann1840 c a r c i n o g e n i c. Not worth the risk.
How long does it usually take an embalmed body in a ground burial to liquify like your talking about? Just wondering.
@@imjustagirl 8-12yrs or more..the type of coffin makes a difference as well.. as it can slow the decomposition process
Funny thing is I used to work part time in a funeral home and I picked up some neat info.
Most of the time if you get embalmed youve got about 2 weeks max before decomp takes place (not including things like caskets etc.)
Also in mosoleums if the pressure changes due to not being sealed, heat etc and you bloat like stated above, when you pop you can actually blow the faceplate off the wall and now youre running down on to the floor in one big puddle.
Outrageous !! I sent this video to the Gov. of Pennsylvania, as well to the Attorney General.. They both need to take action!
Yep. I'm not much for relying on govt but this is one of those times where THEY NEED to take care of it.
finally a responsible american citizen.. i was going to make a long distance call to the American President to intervene..
They won't do anything.. unless someone is running for public office. Maybe the health department can do something..?
@@fidelcatsro6948 the president wont do shit trust me…hope this gets taken care of one day. I can feel the families pain, I dream of moving my grandmother one day different state different cemetery but similar hurt 😔
So sad. Thanks for sharing
I really hope they save those Beautiful glass windows! Thank you for talking us to see this tragedy
That is one of the most disgusting, inhumane things I have ever seen.
This is very sad, I wish I had the money to buy this cemetery & fix it all up for these souls that should be resting in peace. It could be so beautiful.
I was thinking the same
May God bless you ❣️
Someone did unknowingly buy it for 4,500 dollars. But are now stuck with codes and restrictions. The people are resting in peace. Although it is a huge mess. It probably runs a parallel of what goes on underground. These worldly things go away once we die.💜💜
I dont think the souls are there just the bodies neither the spirit
People don't worry,they are resting in peace. No noise,no live people, nature the sun, the wind, very quiet. It's only bodies...the spirit will find you if you call to it.the body is only a temporary housing for your soul and spirit.
I would totally leave my shoes in the trash after walking through this stuff. You are brave Lamont
I completely agree
Lmao but true
Stupid not brave
Oh heck yeah, I wouldn’t wear those shoes in my house
@@chocolatechipslime who wears shoes inside the house? 😬
So sad those people are not remembered in burial and their remains are not tended to regularly. Thanks for the videos Lamont.
Thanks Lamont for showing this. I hope these people all get moved to another location.
Incredibly interesting. Really good video. Well done.
That brown stuff on the carpet is moss which is formed in damp places. Since the mausoleum had so much dampness from the leaks and poor conditions, that's why it formed. The markings running down the stones of the mausoleum is simple age-related wear and tear due to being in the elements. All that being said, it is a true shame what was allowed to happen to this place. Caring about cemeteries seems to be a lost art. I can't tell you how many times I visit my loved ones graves only to see people allowing their dogs to use it as a toilet. It's so hard for these cemeteries to find workers as well so everything gets forgotten.
Yes, I guess it is. I went only once maybe to cemetary to my dads grave. I just find it unnecessary and meaningless. He's dead and I don't need to go see a stone with his name on it.
@@May04bwu Right! I feel the same way. It's not like we can go there, and say a magical spell to bring them back. My wife passed away, and when I would visit, it would just keep bringing the anguish and depression back, not letting me heal properly. Plus, I got a twin grave, and I hate seeing my name on it.
Lots of prime real estate wasted too.. Cemetery's are a huge waste of space..
You mean MOLD, not MOSS.
