hahahha thats what i thought, similar at least, i was like "those two asking each other if they have enough oxygen is like 2 ppl on a sinking boat asking each other if theyre sinking or not 💀"
And backup headlamps. Not just O2 monitor, but one that detects dangerous gases, as well. There might be enough oxygen, but also some gases that will knock you unconscious in a very short period of time, and then you die.
Miner here, please for the love of all things holy invest in the bare minimum of O2 and CO detectors. Even in active mines with working ventilation you can have pockets of CO that you will walk into and never walk out of. And that's ignoring the stability of the rock and infrastructure.
I always find it fascinating what the view of the expert is against the view of the non-expert. We see rock tunnels. Maybe some dead air. But your a miner. What must you see when you look at the tunnels and the mountain. How much like children who are surviving purely on luck alone do we look like?
If you ever explore abandoned mines like this, watch out for stagnant water. If it is stagnant, it can absorb toxic gases released by mining of some types of minerals. when you step in that water, or disturb it, it will un-trap those toxic gases and release them into the tunnel. Worst thing about this is that you won't know for sure if you released/inhaled those toxic gases until you start getting symptoms. Luckily in your case most of the mine water was flowing somewhere, which means there is less chance for gases to get trapped. Just watch out for those puddles that aren't moving whatsoever. Also, absolutely do not under any circumstance swim in the cave water. You and your buddies are extremely brave to do something like this, It's honestly really impressive.
@@raiden72 Lmao I don't know how they survived that! It's crazy enough to go swimming in toxic mine water, but toxic, and radiation contaminated water is a whole other level!
@@ilhamtlam5250 It depends on the location. Some mines aren't as hazardous, some are very hazardous. Miners use gas masks in some mines for this particular reason. Some of the toxic gases won't kill you instantly, they might just screw something up with your body. The gases in these abandoned mines can be poisonous. If they are not, the lack of oxygen from those gases filling the tunnels could suffocate you over time, and some gases can even be accidentally ignited. There are LOTS of dangers regarding the gases within mines.

Bro, you have done all this traveling and exploring and shit, yet you don't even carry a basic lockpicking set with you? That lock on the mine at the end is like the most simple of simple locks. In fact, you could have got that lock off just by hitting it with a rock or something. But because you do not want to do any damage, etc, that is why I bring up a simple lockpicking set. You could unlock it and lock it back when you're done that way, and no one would ever be the wiser. Plus, if you are ever in a hairy situation, it could give you a different outlet of escape.
What's scary is they are climbable until they suddenly and catastrophically are not. That's a no from me dog. I would love to go on allot of the adventures they go on, the journey inside Chernobyl count me in, looked amazing, but climbing rusted wet ladders up strait shafts in a unknown mine, hell no.
@@brianritchie75 Surprise! Kind of random, but I just happen to be a antique weapons dealer, so I am a bit of a steel nerd. This is such a weird myth my dude. Steel technology has actually improved since then and there is much better steel alloys today compared to the pre 1970s, both in purity, tensile strength and toughness. Recycled steel looses no properties from being recycled and is 100% as strong as new steel smelted from iron ore. I guarantee you modern structural steel like on a ladder is going to be just as good or better today than it was in the 1970s or before. The only odd thing is pre 1940s steel was different because modern steel is more radioactive due to nuclear weapons. Doesn't really effect strength but it is kind of mind blowing that virtually all steel since the nuclear bomb was invented has elevated radioactivity. Anyways, I'm always here if anyone wants any more random steel facts lol.
@@-Zevin- What a wonderful contribution of information you have made! So what's the possibility that this metal didn't give in to them climbing all those stairs? I really thought it was dangerous
I have never commented on this Channels content before.. But after watching 3 minutes of this video I had to express my concern..My uncle is a retired coal miner that worked 4 miles underground for 35 yrs..He was just beginning to think about his retirement when one afternoon a wall that was secured by the safety guidelines of ACMA came crashing down on top of him..When they finally dug him out and he was airlifted to the closest hospital he was rushed into surgery.. Let's just say he is lucky to be alive because the surgeon told my aunt that the edge of the wall missed his heart by only 2 centimeters ..It took him a good 6 months of healing and therapy to be able to return to work..He had been back.on the job for 3 weeks when another accident happened this time he lost over half of his ring finger . That was it for him and he put in for his retirement..I am not here judging anyone but I literally got chill bumps watching all of you climbing around in a mine that is unstable and should never have ppl crawling or climbing around in .I know this will either be laughed at or ignored probably both due to the age group that follows this TH-camr..This is scary stuff and hopefully it will not be attempted again..I am not attacking or putting anybody down what I have shared is done out of concern.. Let's just say I could share many stories about mines due to growing up in a mining town.. However,I decided not to and I will leave like this .Take care and be blessed..
Totally agree. People die in even the best maintained mines, old ones like this are deathtraps. Add to that the twattish irresponsibility of Matt, and it's a miracle they all got out in one piece.
yeah I agree with you completely. This was by far the most dangerous stunt Shiey has ever done. If he keeps this going to caves like this, he will die. Hell, it was a miracle nobody died on *this* expedition. It's seriously so dangerous I'm not sure if this should be on youtube. If anyone sees this with slightest curiosity for caving, please don't.
This is the only video from shiey that made a lot of us worried same goes with shiey. This was really thrilling. I hope if ever they explore mine caves again, they should bring gears that could help them and study the cave first before exploring it. Be safe guys!
Shiey, im telling you this as someone who has watched you since you made this channel. I come from a long line of coal miners, we've been in it since it was done. I was also born and raised and live in west Virginia. One of the places which host some of the worst disasters in mining history. My great great grandfather lost his arm, his leg, and an eye in a collapse and narrowly survived after days, my great granfather lost 3 inches of bone in his left leg due to beinh crushed and was stuck in a mine for a month with letters of condolence already being sent out, my other great great grandfather died in the 1964 pond gap mining disaster with my uncle (one of his sons) and my current grandfather survived the upper big branch mine disaster. These places are dangerous and lethal. Gas ranging from CO, methane, H2s, can all be present. A lack of oxygen can exist in these places, explosive coal dust can remain is some cases, and they are unkept and havent been maintained for decades. You stay out of these places or YOU WILL DIE. Don't let complacency be the writer of your fate.
yea as a person who never train surf or do caving i more likely choose surfing if i had, coz its i this least dangerous (still im not gonna do it in near future)
Shiey doesn’t monetise his videos, he never did. That’s the main difference. Whatever people say, most people just want to make money from their videos. Showy kept it real since day 1. Hence why I respect the guy
@@KHos73climbing with Americans , especially insecure boys like Matt who kinda ruined the vibe in this video, is the most dangerous part. I feel bad for the other friend who was clearly pushing his comfort zone. I’m glad Shiey is a legend who sticks with him for safety and also make sure you keep each other in check. If one wants to tap out, they should be able to do that, and trustworthy friends will not leave you behind so you feel trapped.
@@namenl2205L take. it doesnt have anything to do with being american. im american and i went exploring in an abandoned building with an Albanian dude and he was loud and dumb and almost got us caught. Doesnt mean all Albanians are loud and dumb. Also doesnt mean he is insecure. where tf you get that from?
@@namenl2205 Yeah, honestly Matt running off and leaving everyone behind was fucked up. When they caught up to him at the end and he was like "I was just about to go back for you guys" I was thinking "the fuck you were." I wonder how long it had been since they'd been separated. 30 minutes? An hour? How long were you gonna wait, dude? I saw that guy in previous videos and always got a weird feeling about him but just ignored it because there wasn't really any reason for it that I could see. But now...if I were Shiey I wouldn't be doing any dangerous shit with that guy anymore. Either something bad happens to you and he's not around to help because he ran off by himself, or he speeds off ahead and gets himself hurt out of stupidity or lack of caution and you can't find him because he's unconscious or whatever. I wouldn't take chances on that dude.
the moment Matt disappeared - is no joke. The sound in cave - works in a very small distance, so this is a very bad shit for you and others. It is super easy to get lost just around the corner, no joke. And if someone get hurt badly - 95% he will end his life there. Isn't a fun place to be.
PSA: ROE about going into rickety mines 1. don't touch the ceiling and supports. If you have to crawl through bat sh!t as your only option to not touch either of those, you go for the bat sh!t and you enjoy it. 2. if the sound of your voice becomes muffled, that's danger zone. That means the area is unstable. Get out or be extremely careful. 3. should bring an oxygen meter, even if it's a sh!tty one. Trust me on this. In mines, carbon monoxide poisoning is the least of your concerns. 4. TNT sticks. Don't play with them. I've seen several TNT sticks that had been inside mines for decades if not almost 100 years still explode (when triggered with a device). Several videos in fact, exist on this. Short of them being waterlogged, assume they're dangerous, best to leave them be. 5. last, but not least, consider all floors are false floors. You never know when you're on rock solid ground, a thin layer of rock from another level or cut bellow or just plain false floor on top of old rotten wooden supports and planks. This means, don't stomp in mines. Walk like a cat that's about to eat the chicken from the owner's plate because they weren't paying attention. You're stealth incarnate in a mine. Just saying these because there's been more and more videos of mine exploration lately, and not all people (not saying Shiey and friends) are aware of the dangers in mines. I've personally fallen 4 meters through a false floor once and it's not a pleasant experience. Mines are fun, but they're also just about the most dangerous place on planet earth short of walking through a minefield blindfolded and on metal stilts. Mines suffer no fools and a lot of people die in them post factum. One last thing for any intrepid explorer, if you happen upon an old, old mine and you see cool stuff... don't ruin it. Some pretty amazing things lie hidden inside them, like 100+ yo hobnail boot prints from mines probably younger than a good percentage of the viewership or as young. That's all, just wanted to say this, nothing more. Have a nice day!
TNT sticks have the especially interesting property of the explosive leeching out over time, forming sensitive crystals on the outside of the stick, which may go off and blow up the entire stick if you disturb the stick and break the crystals. So, to reiterate: DO NOT TOUCH OR MOVE THE OLD TNT STICKS IN MINES!
This is one of those videos that gives anxiety. An ever narrowing tunnel that appears to have no end. Rusty, brittle ladders threatening to either give way at any moment or give you tetanus. A companion that scarpers and leaves you wondering if he fell down a hole to his death, wandered off down one of the off shoots, or just decided to abandon you in the depths of a dangerous cave system.
Matt is that insecure child you should not go climbing with. I hope Shiey, makes wise decisions in the future about the people who he does these things with. People like Gifgas would never run off to look cool with his dad little camera
Right? I usually eat while watching shiey vids because of how chill they are since even with all the climbing shiey is in control, but this one is making my heart sink because even with all his experience there's nothing shiey can do if something goes wrong, and things tend to go wrong in caves and abandoned mines, especially during rain.
@@namenl2205 especially since gifgas even scolds people who do unsafe things on trains, e.g. going under the waggons. I personally doubt he would set foot that deep into a mine
@nikostalk5730 Dwdw, I do urbex exploring myself.. I'm not hyping it up.. I'm just happy bcs he's still alive.. and I know you can die from this stuff.. and tbh.. i think he should be more carefull.. but who am I to say he should be that..
As someone who's lost friends to the mining accidents, I'm not digging this one too much. Very dangerous to go into collapsed mines without first letting other people knowing where you are--especially in unsafe conditions like collapsed mines, and flooded mines. I did a lot of caving in my youth, and we had lots of close calls doing stuff like this. Adventure and exploration is cool, but please, oh please, use your heads a little. You're lucky that you didn't have a tragedy take place. I have confidence that Shiey has experience, wisdom and common sense, but Matt taking off on his own in an unfamiliar, dangerous place like this is really not too bright. Excitement or not, you have to show more common sense, Matt. You gotta think of your friends as well. It's important to stick together. Before going into any cave or mine, you also need to be damn sure you have good lights, back-up lights, and extra batteries and bulbs. Impromptu situations like this can end up disastrous. You guys are so, so lucky. We all make mistakes, but please learn from this one. I know that a big thrill of these adventures is living on the edge. Been there, done that. Just use your heads, and work together to stay as safe as you can, guys.
I’m glad I’m not the only one really pissed off at Matt, insecure little boy with his camera. He really thought he was impressing Shiey and the other friend. Great job looking like an insecure wank
The boy behind Shiey asked for Shiey to wait, was literally no fun. You can clearly see he was less experienced, in these situations you need to be able to trust your friends, I’m glad as expected Shiey is a reliable friend. Matt would leave that guy behind to fall down. That’s literally what the dude would’ve end up doing in this case
Out of all your videos, this is the only one I couldn't watch all the way through. Those mines are so dangerous and I've come to regard you as a friend I've never met. I don't want to lose you for the sake of making a cool video. Please be safe Bro.
not to be a downer, but personally i think these videos are most enjoyable when they strike a balance between risk and precaution. this just felt like a complete hazard. not in the typical ‘cool exploration’ way i’m used to on this channel. the ignorance was just frustrating. an abandoned mine is a death trap. you’ve got unstable structures, dangerous gases, and weather conditions adding to the mix. get your hands on an o2 monitor or something as a bare minimum. it could be a literal lifesaver. as for your exploration buddy… i’m sure he’s a great guy who got caught up in adrenaline but in this particular situation, running off is not just a minor inconvenience; it's a legitimate safety concern. i love your content and how much you enjoy doing what you do, but please remember safety should always be a priority. we don’t want to see you die for something as stupid as poor planning which could’ve been easily avoided
Completely agree. Matt is so unreliable and I don’t like the fact Shiey mentioned he’d talked to him about how he acts ‘in the future’. I do not trust him at all. Shiey has done some borderline stupid shit which I get is part of his brand and what people enjoy watching but this was painful to sit through. I hope they realise how lucky they are to be alive and don’t try that stuff again without better conditions and equipment (and preferably no Matt but…)
i stopped watching the video and i'm not going to finish it. if this is the direction shiey is taking his content, i am unsubbing. i wont cheer on someones suicide
@@scarlettgarner4711lmao who are you? Nobody gives a fuck who you trust or not shiey obviously does and his opinion is the only one that matters cause he is the one that knows the true ins and outs of his explorations. Fuck off and just watch the video.
16:50 WOW, if you didn’t show this frame i would never have guessed where you guys were. I live about 30 miles from there and i’ve seen those places a few times passing by. That’s quite a “touristic” road that lead up in the mountains of the area so i won’t disclose the location since you can easily find info online. Down the road there’s another mine complex that’s been riqualified to a family adventure park where they do mine tours and they teach you about the dangers of those places. Pretty cool to see this, thanks Shiey
That guy leaving the group could have started a rescue search mission, going in the wrong direction and causing panic from there. Super bad behavior. It ended good this time, but a thing like that can start a chain reaction leading straight to de*th.. very disturbing
It's mindblowing to think that someone has actually carried and installed all those ladders and pipes inside the narrow tunnels. That must have been really tough work.
This gave me so much anxiety once you realized Matt was gone, such a dangerous adventure. Thankful that you recorded this so I can experience this from my couch and not first person. Caves are now a no-go for me
This is so dangerous. Professional miners would cringe at this stuff. They know how many ways this could go real bad real fast. Life underground becomes death underground so suddenly.
I love your content and your willingness to take risks Shiey, but at this point it feels like you're just rolling the dice with luck. I guess every member of this group has done some crazy things and got away with them, but that does lead to a false sense of invincibility, which is a very dangerous thing. I promise I don't mean anything negative towards your content or anyone in your group, but I genuinely worry that one day the luck is going to run out. Stay safe guys, and keep those risks calculated. Best wishes.
@@Anonymous-8080 No, the point is calculated risk. What they did here is kinda dumb. The channel wouldn't really do well if Shiey and others were dead, would it?!
@@infiniteirish I do make sense. Learn about calculated risk, and come back to me. Shiey is clearly adept at climbing towers, and any mistake he makes are his own. Entering old mines isn't calculated risk especially without safety equipment, as there's dangerous situations that can happen regardless of how much this group takes care. Not the same thing!
There are some moments in your videos where I get a bit thrilled just watching, but this freaked me out a bit. That was genuinely dangerous. Amazing content though!
Ok, CO/O2 meter(s) are essential. In addition you may - at least - wanna remember: 1. If there is stagnant water DO NOT disturb it. 2. If your voice sounds muted rather than echoey, DO NOT proceed. That means the rock is more likely to be weak (like it's powdered up). 3. ALWAYS ensure there's emergency backup. Like: you don't get out of this place in a few hours, someone gets someone out to find you. No kidding, man. I know you do sketchy stuff, but old mines are next-level dangerous; it's your life, but: these kinds of places kill people real easy...
Perfect example of how one of the men in the group can do something that gets the other men killed or lost. Shiey did the right thing by staying calm and letting logic dictate keep climbing until you can't climb anymore looking for signs of side paths until you reach the top but many people might think 'oh no he wouldn't have kept climbing or oh no he couldn't been fast enough to be all the way at the top already' which then makes them head in other directions searching until something bad happens like bad air, collapse, fatigue etc
Shiey should dump Matt for his videos. The other friend (behind Shiey) clearly wasn’t that experienced as Shiey, I felt bad for the guy when asked Shiey to not leave him 😕 Matt is not a friend. I’m glad Shiey stuck around and helped him
Dude you should absolutely get a drone! We would love to see how those old mine complexes look froom above and it would make for some of the sickest shots ever!
Just want to say, good job remaining calm and keeping together after having one go missing. This could've gone a lot worse. In future take a rucksack of chemlights, crack one and drop it to make a trail back. People get turned around in caves easily and staying calm is never a given.
4:30 "Next person should come up" *fist sized rocks fall down 10 meter drop directly where you would have been* "Okay- Next person should come up" I wouldn't be taking his advice ever again lmfao..... jesus
loved the second mine. Had the abandoned mine processing plant with it. Loved the mine exploration video its a different style than usual and it was fun to watch.
5 seconds in, a guy points at a thing. he says "we need to get up this thing". I'm then completely hooked and invested in this video. Such great work shared with us. thanks for this.
Honestly beside Matt going off and you going into a mine you should have researched about the mine while there was flowing water you should have always be careful of potential stagnant water with can contain highly dangerous gases or resolved metals which can create highly poisonous fumes or even create acid.
The only time I've been this nervous watching Shiey was when he went through the bunker ventilation tube that had a baffle in the middle. Love this channel, but don't risk your life for us. Same goes for Matt!
Awesome. I've seen some other TH-camrs videos checking out that site, but no one pushed the limit like you. Your videos are insane. It is worth waiting every single day until you release a new one. Matt's behavior in the mine was somehow uncool. I don't want that this lost place thing gets more public attention as it already has. Especially in Europe. Seriously injured or even dead explorers wouldn't help. Stay save my friend!
Getting an oxygen monitor and a helmet would be great for the future, also when exploring mines, rule of left, always explore left first and then go back for the right side that way you never get lost
lol no concern for safety in this video, going into a mine like that with no gas monitor is dumb asf. There lucky they didn't die. I know Shiey isn't afraid of death, but we want him to keep making these vids man
beyond the major scary vibes of getting stuck in the labyrinth of mines goddamn that place is pretty with the bright red buildings and pipes in the vibrant green forest... cool shit.
5:50 I love that not they did just to keep the ladders together, also this is the type of work I did in Boston. We would dig like 10 feet holes sometimes 20 and we would have to build staging for the other two stand on and we would just dig dirt all by hand to repair the foundations under buildings. They would be held up by rotten wooden piles. We would have to pump out the water. We would have to work during low tide sometimes. Obviously we’re not in a cave, but I’m just saying it’s similar to this. Using a ladder and a stage and then just keep going. Every 4 feet we put in more planks to show up the walls.
Dude Shiey, I love your adventures so much. This wasnt smart and if there wasn't a way out at the top of those ladders I dont know what would have happened
Next Shiey will explore an abandoned Soviet launch pad, accidentally activate a space ship, steer it to Neptune where he will explore the cavernous icy depths of the deepest crevices of Neptune for all of us to type here how amazing our lives aren’t. He will be fine. Respect.
Took a massive risk with this one boys. I recommend everyone watches the movie 13 lives. It tells the true story about a bunch of kids getting stuck in a cave in Thailand during a monsoon. The rain from the mountain poured straight into the cave and trapped them for weeks.
That was just a few years ago, no? That's not that long ago (okay maybe almost 10 years). But I suppose I might watch it if they include mah boi Elon sperging out and calling one of the volunteer rescuers a pedophile out of hurt fee fees when they rejected his proposed tube for being wildly impractical (though they were admittedly harsh in the rejection).
I have been watching since the early days. Soviet bunkers and suspension bridges. This. This was freaking scary. Dude. This was amazing. Also congrats on the music. Keep up the excellent work!
Out of all your adventures this one kept me on the edge of my seat. Got some balls sir. I was seriously worried you might get lost or something bad happening. Well done great video
i really enjoyed that mine exploration video :) it was pretty fun doing math along with you guys. i love how both of them rushed to catch you without any hesitation. i am so accustomed to see you climbing some weird stuff that seeing you on the things that are specifically made to do that (like the climbing wall) feels almost.. a bit odd? ^^
Two people asking each other if they feel oxygen deprived is like 2 mates asking each other if they look high lmao

Recycled steel looses no properties from being recycled and is 100% as strong as new steel smelted from iron ore. I guarantee you modern structural steel like on a ladder is going to be just as good or better today than it was in the 1970s or before.
The only odd thing is pre 1940s steel was different because modern steel is more radioactive due to nuclear weapons. Doesn't really effect strength but it is kind of mind blowing that virtually all steel since the nuclear bomb was invented has elevated radioactivity.
Anyways, I'm always here if anyone wants any more random steel facts lol.
@@-Zevin- What a wonderful contribution of information you have made! So what's the possibility that this metal didn't give in to them climbing all those stairs? I really thought it was dangerous
@@-Zevin- People love regurgitating dumb myths they've read on reddit which were created to make class divides
I have never commented on this Channels content before.. But after watching 3 minutes of this video I had to express my concern..My uncle is a retired coal miner that worked 4 miles underground for 35 yrs..He was just beginning to think about his retirement when one afternoon a wall that was secured by the safety guidelines of ACMA came crashing down on top of him..When they finally dug him out and he was airlifted to the closest hospital he was rushed into surgery.. Let's just say he is lucky to be alive because the surgeon told my aunt that the edge of the wall missed his heart by only 2 centimeters ..It took him a good 6 months of healing and therapy to be able to return to work..He had been back.on the job for 3 weeks when another accident happened this time he lost over half of his ring finger
. That was it for him and he put in for his retirement..I am not here judging anyone but I literally got chill bumps watching all of you climbing around in a mine that is unstable and should never have ppl crawling or climbing around in .I know this will either be laughed at or ignored probably both due to the age group that follows this TH-camr..This is scary stuff and hopefully it will not be attempted again..I am not attacking or putting anybody down what I have shared is done out of concern.. Let's just say I could share many stories about mines due to growing up in a mining town.. However,I decided not to and I will leave like this .Take care and be blessed..
Wise words.
Any ridicule will only come from childish idiots.
Yeah my anxiety for them was through the roof
100%. Get caught out on private property? Maybe get a fine or a night in the cells. Caught out in a mineshaft? Too easy to die
Totally agree. People die in even the best maintained mines, old ones like this are deathtraps. Add to that the twattish irresponsibility of Matt, and it's a miracle they all got out in one piece.
yeah I agree with you completely. This was by far the most dangerous stunt Shiey has ever done. If he keeps this going to caves like this, he will die. Hell, it was a miracle nobody died on *this* expedition. It's seriously so dangerous I'm not sure if this should be on youtube. If anyone sees this with slightest curiosity for caving, please don't.
This is the only video from shiey that made a lot of us worried same goes with shiey. This was really thrilling. I hope if ever they explore mine caves again, they should bring gears that could help them and study the cave first before exploring it. Be safe guys!
Shiey, im telling you this as someone who has watched you since you made this channel. I come from a long line of coal miners, we've been in it since it was done. I was also born and raised and live in west Virginia. One of the places which host some of the worst disasters in mining history. My great great grandfather lost his arm, his leg, and an eye in a collapse and narrowly survived after days, my great granfather lost 3 inches of bone in his left leg due to beinh crushed and was stuck in a mine for a month with letters of condolence already being sent out, my other great great grandfather died in the 1964 pond gap mining disaster with my uncle (one of his sons) and my current grandfather survived the upper big branch mine disaster. These places are dangerous and lethal. Gas ranging from CO, methane, H2s, can all be present. A lack of oxygen can exist in these places, explosive coal dust can remain is some cases, and they are unkept and havent been maintained for decades. You stay out of these places or YOU WILL DIE. Don't let complacency be the writer of your fate.
yea as a person who never train surf or do caving i more likely choose surfing if i had, coz its i this least dangerous (still im not gonna do it in near future)
There aren't many youtuber that can always upload thrilling content, but shiey does it somehow, love his content (also goddamn caving looks dangerous)
8 years
it is very very dangerous.
Caving in general is much safer than mine exploration as the cave support itself by design, the mine need human support and after time it degrade
Shiey doesn’t monetise his videos, he never did. That’s the main difference. Whatever people say, most people just want to make money from their videos. Showy kept it real since day 1. Hence why I respect the guy
Not only “looks” its VERY dangerous dude😅
This is so insanely dangerous, glad everyone's safe
Yeah, it’s ok until something bad happens..
@@KHos73climbing with Americans , especially insecure boys like Matt who kinda ruined the vibe in this video, is the most dangerous part. I feel bad for the other friend who was clearly pushing his comfort zone. I’m glad Shiey is a legend who sticks with him for safety and also make sure you keep each other in check. If one wants to tap out, they should be able to do that, and trustworthy friends will not leave you behind so you feel trapped.
@@namenl2205 ?
@@namenl2205L take. it doesnt have anything to do with being american. im american and i went exploring in an abandoned building with an Albanian dude and he was loud and dumb and almost got us caught. Doesnt mean all Albanians are loud and dumb. Also doesnt mean he is insecure. where tf you get that from?
@@namenl2205 Yeah, honestly Matt running off and leaving everyone behind was fucked up. When they caught up to him at the end and he was like "I was just about to go back for you guys" I was thinking "the fuck you were." I wonder how long it had been since they'd been separated. 30 minutes? An hour? How long were you gonna wait, dude?
I saw that guy in previous videos and always got a weird feeling about him but just ignored it because there wasn't really any reason for it that I could see. But now...if I were Shiey I wouldn't be doing any dangerous shit with that guy anymore. Either something bad happens to you and he's not around to help because he ran off by himself, or he speeds off ahead and gets himself hurt out of stupidity or lack of caution and you can't find him because he's unconscious or whatever.
I wouldn't take chances on that dude.
One day you are going to record the coolest adventure that we will never see. Just keep that in mind.
Dying peacefully in your sleep is quite an adventure.
@@Scott-ir5egso is overdosing on heroin
That's life in a nutshell. but what's funny is he more likely to get hurt just driving or taking a pharmaceutical than maybe spelunking in a tunnel
BUT thats no suprise? Thats his journey, would be a normal ending for him, he does what he love and dies by the sword kinda
That's what I was thinking while watching
Watching this one, started getting paranoid, then realized I would'nt be watching this if it ended bad.Stay safe brother.
the moment Matt disappeared - is no joke. The sound in cave - works in a very small distance, so this is a very bad shit for you and others.
It is super easy to get lost just around the corner, no joke. And if someone get hurt badly - 95% he will end his life there. Isn't a fun place to be.
Love how calm you are. In so many scenarios the ability to remain calm and not panic can save your life as well as others.
he isn't calm, he just don't know the danger behind environment.
Gosh, even the first few seconds of this video so perfectly provide so much atmosphere and immersion...awesome to see another adventure being shared.
Haha, a little too much with my speakers turned up 😅
I suppose it was inevitable, but stay smart, Shiey. Spelunking is no joke in terms of danger levels.
3xamples!

@@Tj-km7pskeyboard warrior , I bet you can’t even run 10 miles
Do you remember when he crawled and struggled thru an air valve vent into an old WW2 bunker
PSA: ROE about going into rickety mines
1. don't touch the ceiling and supports. If you have to crawl through bat sh!t as your only option to not touch either of those, you go for the bat sh!t and you enjoy it.
2. if the sound of your voice becomes muffled, that's danger zone. That means the area is unstable. Get out or be extremely careful.
3. should bring an oxygen meter, even if it's a sh!tty one. Trust me on this. In mines, carbon monoxide poisoning is the least of your concerns.
4. TNT sticks. Don't play with them. I've seen several TNT sticks that had been inside mines for decades if not almost 100 years still explode (when triggered with a device). Several videos in fact, exist on this. Short of them being waterlogged, assume they're dangerous, best to leave them be.
5. last, but not least, consider all floors are false floors. You never know when you're on rock solid ground, a thin layer of rock from another level or cut bellow or just plain false floor on top of old rotten wooden supports and planks. This means, don't stomp in mines. Walk like a cat that's about to eat the chicken from the owner's plate because they weren't paying attention. You're stealth incarnate in a mine.
Just saying these because there's been more and more videos of mine exploration lately, and not all people (not saying Shiey and friends) are aware of the dangers in mines. I've personally fallen 4 meters through a false floor once and it's not a pleasant experience.
Mines are fun, but they're also just about the most dangerous place on planet earth short of walking through a minefield blindfolded and on metal stilts. Mines suffer no fools and a lot of people die in them post factum.
One last thing for any intrepid explorer, if you happen upon an old, old mine and you see cool stuff... don't ruin it. Some pretty amazing things lie hidden inside them, like 100+ yo hobnail boot prints from mines probably younger than a good percentage of the viewership or as young.
That's all, just wanted to say this, nothing more. Have a nice day!
TNT sticks have the especially interesting property of the explosive leeching out over time, forming sensitive crystals on the outside of the stick, which may go off and blow up the entire stick if you disturb the stick and break the crystals. So, to reiterate: DO NOT TOUCH OR MOVE THE OLD TNT STICKS IN MINES!
Unbelievable. Not a single cave spider spawner.
This is one of those videos that gives anxiety. An ever narrowing tunnel that appears to have no end. Rusty, brittle ladders threatening to either give way at any moment or give you tetanus. A companion that scarpers and leaves you wondering if he fell down a hole to his death, wandered off down one of the off shoots, or just decided to abandon you in the depths of a dangerous cave system.
Matt is that insecure child you should not go climbing with. I hope Shiey, makes wise decisions in the future about the people who he does these things with. People like Gifgas would never run off to look cool with his dad little camera
Right? I usually eat while watching shiey vids because of how chill they are since even with all the climbing shiey is in control, but this one is making my heart sink because even with all his experience there's nothing shiey can do if something goes wrong, and things tend to go wrong in caves and abandoned mines, especially during rain.
a TH-camr died climbing stairs in an abandoned building... I almost had an anxiety attack watching this video.
@@namenl2205 especially since gifgas even scolds people who do unsafe things on trains, e.g. going under the waggons.
I personally doubt he would set foot that deep into a mine
@@namenl2205bro here hates Matt 😂 calm down lil bro you don’t know these folk 😂😂
Everytime when Shiey uploads again a sigh of relief goes through me because it means he's still alive 👀🥹
this video is a steep cliff, and there is no luck to stand like this again, so don't hype videos like this, it is not a game, you can die for sure.
@nikostalk5730 Dwdw, I do urbex exploring myself.. I'm not hyping it up.. I'm just happy bcs he's still alive.. and I know you can die from this stuff.. and tbh.. i think he should be more carefull.. but who am I to say he should be that..
@@Dreamz_06 "but who am I to say he should be that.." - you are the one of his friends, who really cares, and can change his mind for real
@nikostalk5730 I wish I was his friend, but I don't think he even knows I exist 🥲 if I could change his mind on doing this stuff I'd Def do it..
As someone who's lost friends to the mining accidents, I'm not digging this one too much. Very dangerous to go into collapsed mines without first letting other people knowing where you are--especially in unsafe conditions like collapsed mines, and flooded mines. I did a lot of caving in my youth, and we had lots of close calls doing stuff like this. Adventure and exploration is cool, but please, oh please, use your heads a little. You're lucky that you didn't have a tragedy take place. I have confidence that Shiey has experience, wisdom and common sense, but Matt taking off on his own in an unfamiliar, dangerous place like this is really not too bright. Excitement or not, you have to show more common sense, Matt. You gotta think of your friends as well. It's important to stick together. Before going into any cave or mine, you also need to be damn sure you have good lights, back-up lights, and extra batteries and bulbs. Impromptu situations like this can end up disastrous. You guys are so, so lucky. We all make mistakes, but please learn from this one. I know that a big thrill of these adventures is living on the edge. Been there, done that. Just use your heads, and work together to stay as safe as you can, guys.
I’m glad I’m not the only one really pissed off at Matt, insecure little boy with his camera. He really thought he was impressing Shiey and the other friend. Great job looking like an insecure wank
The boy behind Shiey asked for Shiey to wait, was literally no fun. You can clearly see he was less experienced, in these situations you need to be able to trust your friends, I’m glad as expected Shiey is a reliable friend. Matt would leave that guy behind to fall down. That’s literally what the dude would’ve end up doing in this case
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏾
Out of all your videos, this is the only one I couldn't watch all the way through. Those mines are so dangerous and I've come to regard you as a friend I've never met. I don't want to lose you for the sake of making a cool video. Please be safe Bro.
Shout out to Shiey for always sharing his adventures, definitely a privilege to view them
not to be a downer, but personally i think these videos are most enjoyable when they strike a balance between risk and precaution. this just felt like a complete hazard. not in the typical ‘cool exploration’ way i’m used to on this channel. the ignorance was just frustrating.
an abandoned mine is a death trap. you’ve got unstable structures, dangerous gases, and weather conditions adding to the mix. get your hands on an o2 monitor or something as a bare minimum. it could be a literal lifesaver.
as for your exploration buddy… i’m sure he’s a great guy who got caught up in adrenaline but in this particular situation, running off is not just a minor inconvenience; it's a legitimate safety concern.
i love your content and how much you enjoy doing what you do, but please remember safety should always be a priority. we don’t want to see you die for something as stupid as poor planning which could’ve been easily avoided
Completely agree. Matt is so unreliable and I don’t like the fact Shiey mentioned he’d talked to him about how he acts ‘in the future’. I do not trust him at all. Shiey has done some borderline stupid shit which I get is part of his brand and what people enjoy watching but this was painful to sit through. I hope they realise how lucky they are to be alive and don’t try that stuff again without better conditions and equipment (and preferably no Matt but…)
i stopped watching the video and i'm not going to finish it. if this is the direction shiey is taking his content, i am unsubbing. i wont cheer on someones suicide
his friend almost hit his head to a rock. they dont have helmets either.
agree
@@scarlettgarner4711lmao who are you? Nobody gives a fuck who you trust or not shiey obviously does and his opinion is the only one that matters cause he is the one that knows the true ins and outs of his explorations. Fuck off and just watch the video.
Love you Shiey, you have always been my favorite guy here
16:50 WOW, if you didn’t show this frame i would never have guessed where you guys were. I live about 30 miles from there and i’ve seen those places a few times passing by. That’s quite a “touristic” road that lead up in the mountains of the area so i won’t disclose the location since you can easily find info online. Down the road there’s another mine complex that’s been riqualified to a family adventure park where they do mine tours and they teach you about the dangers of those places. Pretty cool to see this, thanks Shiey
Where is it?
@@nonvertical9639 Italy
I plan to visit one day to see tit from the outside! Had this place on my list for a loong time. You live in a beautiful area.
where exactly ?
That guy leaving the group could have started a rescue search mission, going in the wrong direction and causing panic from there. Super bad behavior. It ended good this time, but a thing like that can start a chain reaction leading straight to de*th.. very disturbing
matt the typa guy to die first in a movie
Matt's the type of guy to get someone ELSE killed first. I wouldn't bring him on any more adventures.
Yeah, that's a little sketchy running off away from the group, glad no one ended up hurt or lost. Great video nonetheless, keep up the good work bro.
It's mindblowing to think that someone has actually carried and installed all those ladders and pipes inside the narrow tunnels. That must have been really tough work.
This gave me so much anxiety once you realized Matt was gone, such a dangerous adventure. Thankful that you recorded this so I can experience this from my couch and not first person. Caves are now a no-go for me
So he is still alive, good...
This is so dangerous. Professional miners would cringe at this stuff. They know how many ways this could go real bad real fast. Life underground becomes death underground so suddenly.

I love your content and your willingness to take risks Shiey, but at this point it feels like you're just rolling the dice with luck. I guess every member of this group has done some crazy things and got away with them, but that does lead to a false sense of invincibility, which is a very dangerous thing. I promise I don't mean anything negative towards your content or anyone in your group, but I genuinely worry that one day the luck is going to run out. Stay safe guys, and keep those risks calculated. Best wishes.
Well this is the point of this channel.
@@Anonymous-8080 No, the point is calculated risk. What they did here is kinda dumb. The channel wouldn't really do well if Shiey and others were dead, would it?!
@@infiniteirish I do make sense. Learn about calculated risk, and come back to me. Shiey is clearly adept at climbing towers, and any mistake he makes are his own. Entering old mines isn't calculated risk especially without safety equipment, as there's dangerous situations that can happen regardless of how much this group takes care. Not the same thing!
Glad to see Checkmate is back and doing well in this Adventure
Was he not doing well?
Ill be honest, I never want to go anywhere with Matt. Dude would leave you to die in a heartbeat cause he’d be off in his own world
Matt is one of those people that are permanently "out to lunch"
There are some moments in your videos where I get a bit thrilled just watching, but this freaked me out a bit. That was genuinely dangerous. Amazing content though!
Ok, CO/O2 meter(s) are essential.
In addition you may - at least - wanna remember:
1. If there is stagnant water DO NOT disturb it.
2. If your voice sounds muted rather than echoey, DO NOT proceed. That means the rock is more likely to be weak (like it's powdered up).
3. ALWAYS ensure there's emergency backup. Like: you don't get out of this place in a few hours, someone gets someone out to find you.
No kidding, man. I know you do sketchy stuff, but old mines are next-level dangerous; it's your life, but: these kinds of places kill people real easy...
Hope Shiey sees this, they wouldnt notice if there is no oxygen or other hazard gase until its too late
Perfect example of how one of the men in the group can do something that gets the other men killed or lost. Shiey did the right thing by staying calm and letting logic dictate keep climbing until you can't climb anymore looking for signs of side paths until you reach the top but many people might think 'oh no he wouldn't have kept climbing or oh no he couldn't been fast enough to be all the way at the top already' which then makes them head in other directions searching until something bad happens like bad air, collapse, fatigue etc
just.. please dont die Shiey. you are a really invaluable person on this planet. awesome video btw as usual.
This is so sick. Shiey is yet the best Urban Explorer on TH-cam ❤

Very cool! Matt, you need to play by the rules and not run off...your brothas were worried!

Dude you should absolutely get a drone! We would love to see how those old mine complexes look froom above and it would make for some of the sickest shots ever!
You just want to know where this was. Drone shots of a mine lol
Just want to say, good job remaining calm and keeping together after having one go missing. This could've gone a lot worse. In future take a rucksack of chemlights, crack one and drop it to make a trail back. People get turned around in caves easily and staying calm is never a given.
Matt did the worst thing you could do in those two situations, he was an idiot for doing that.

Safe travels and safe adventures, brother!
loved the second mine. Had the abandoned mine processing plant with it. Loved the mine exploration video its a different style than usual and it was fun to watch.
5 seconds in, a guy points at a thing. he says "we need to get up this thing". I'm then completely hooked and invested in this video. Such great work shared with us. thanks for this.
Honestly beside Matt going off and you going into a mine you should have researched about the mine while there was flowing water you should have always be careful of potential stagnant water with can contain highly dangerous gases or resolved metals which can create highly poisonous fumes or even create acid.
For the ones who wonder what country this is, its Italy. The door on 16:15 says pericolo corrente elettrica
Every new shiey upload I instantly stop what I'm doing to watch it. Amazing work!
The only time I've been this nervous watching Shiey was when he went through the bunker ventilation tube that had a baffle in the middle. Love this channel, but don't risk your life for us. Same goes for Matt!
whats a baffle?
Awesome. I've seen some other TH-camrs videos checking out that site, but no one pushed the limit like you. Your videos are insane. It is worth waiting every single day until you release a new one. Matt's behavior in the mine was somehow uncool. I don't want that this lost place thing gets more public attention as it already has. Especially in Europe. Seriously injured or even dead explorers wouldn't help. Stay save my friend!

Or bear. But Im sure bear will just vibe with Shiey.
5:50 I love that not they did just to keep the ladders together, also this is the type of work I did in Boston. We would dig like 10 feet holes sometimes 20 and we would have to build staging for the other two stand on and we would just dig dirt all by hand to repair the foundations under buildings. They would be held up by rotten wooden piles. We would have to pump out the water. We would have to work during low tide sometimes. Obviously we’re not in a cave, but I’m just saying it’s similar to this. Using a ladder and a stage and then just keep going. Every 4 feet we put in more planks to show up the walls.
Shiey when faced with a hostile environment and impossible odds: "I'm a bit out of my element".
I love how you call them missions, gives them a special feel
Shiey: takes out loose handhold, puts it back in for the next person
recently rediscovered your channel and ive been watching alot of old vids, i love the Chernobyl videos, they are amazing
damn you already have 2.5 million subs dude. i recognize when you just had 70k subs and the quality of your videos were always this good. congrats
wow its insane that he rushed ahead like that and everything worked out. Super lucky
Dude Shiey, I love your adventures so much. This wasnt smart and if there wasn't a way out at the top of those ladders I dont know what would have happened
Next Shiey will explore an abandoned Soviet launch pad, accidentally activate a space ship, steer it to Neptune where he will explore the cavernous icy depths of the deepest crevices of Neptune for all of us to type here how amazing our lives aren’t. He will be fine. Respect.

just got the notification and can already tell its gonna be a good one Love the random adventures keep up the good work!
Took a massive risk with this one boys. I recommend everyone watches the movie 13 lives. It tells the true story about a bunch of kids getting stuck in a cave in Thailand during a monsoon. The rain from the mountain poured straight into the cave and trapped them for weeks.
That was just a few years ago, no? That's not that long ago (okay maybe almost 10 years). But I suppose I might watch it if they include mah boi Elon sperging out and calling one of the volunteer rescuers a pedophile out of hurt fee fees when they rejected his proposed tube for being wildly impractical (though they were admittedly harsh in the rejection).
Matt the type of MF to try and be the main character but really he’s just the doofus that dies at the beginning of a movie scene

Out of all your adventures this one kept me on the edge of my seat. Got some balls sir. I was seriously worried you might get lost or something bad happening. Well done great video
i really enjoyed that mine exploration video :) it was pretty fun doing math along with you guys. i love how both of them rushed to catch you without any hesitation. i am so accustomed to see you climbing some weird stuff that seeing you on the things that are specifically made to do that (like the climbing wall) feels almost.. a bit odd? ^^
I love mine exploration, so this one is probably my favorite video of yours. Stay safe out there!
Note to self: Dont hike with Matt.
