I’ve been on TH-cam since 2006 and this is by far one of the coolest channels I’ve ever found. Love how you take us to random places and show us something historical about it.
At 8:05 what does that woman say?? We’re you alone, was it a ghost or the wind!? Does She say “we’ve all been looking for you” or “we WILL be looking for you”?? mind blown
my favorite YT channel! No ANNOYING intros, logos, ads, dopey music, etc. THANK YOU.
I agree with you
straight to the point no BS.
Unlike you I actually enjoy all the intros and logos, a lot of editing goes into those type of videos.
Dopey music lol. Some of the editing on TH-cam channels can be good or terrible. The music is often annoying more than anything. Intro or outro music is ok but I hate when it’s in the background the whole time
@@notanindianscammer7594 A lot of editing does not mean that it is good. Most of what I see is just a mish-mash. But I guess it is just a learning experience for young beginners. That is trying to find a positive side.
No one asked my opinion. But love your work with Lamont. Thanks
I live just 5 minutes from here and always thought it would be the perfect place for you to check out, loved exploring those same bunkers. So amazing to see your coverage of it, thank you 📖
Cool area to live around!
Are you in Atlantic Highlands or Sea Bright? My brother lived in SB right on Ocean Ave until Sandy.
@@MobileInstinct hey man, after re-watching your Johnstown Flood video for the umpteenth time, that actually got me interested enough to actually take the trip out there for myself, which i'll be doing next Wednesday. which works out for me somewhat, as a friend of mine lives out that way and promised to show me around (that's if I can actually try to get in contact with him before my actual train ride out there
Wasn’t “Sandy Hook” where a teenager went into a school and shot a bunch of kids and a couple of teachers ?
At 8:05 what does that woman say?? We’re you alone, was it a ghost or the wind!? Does She say “we’ve all been looking for you” or “we WILL be looking for you”?? mind blown
That room you found down the small passageway was the generator room. The electrical lines would have run through the cutouts in the floor.

@@gmdhargreaveswow nice catch
Another little adventure and thanks for taking us along and till the time we meet again. That got me bunker built in 1885 which is 20 years after Lincoln died.
You always explore the coolest places. One of the biggest reasons I love your channel! I wouldn't know about these places existing if it wasn't for you. I just want to say thank you so much. Safe travels and look forward to the next adventure. 🙂
What's amazing is that those old WW2 bunkers extend down the entire coastline all the way to Cape May. Many of them are still intact.
Yes. Fort Miles 223 across the Bay into Delaware. Once they got that far they knew they were good being so close to Norfolk they could take care of themselves.
That big pit at 15:00 was a mortar pit. There would be four mortar cannons, each one in the middle of those rings where they would rotate. Purpose was to hit the deck of a ship which would have the least armor.
Well done, Chris, as cool and informative, as always! :)
Thank you, Chris!❤
Awesome editing as well as the video and the history as well.
You are awesome Chris ! TFS with us!
I was hoping that you would take us to that beach!
😂
Awesome video as always
Thanks for the tour 😎👍
Love the video, thanks for taking me there. Love the comment about hitting the beach.
Great video! I enjoyed it!
Exploring the old coastal forts in Washington state was always a fun avtivity for the sons. Thanks for sharing this one on an eastern shore.
Awesome videos bro
Great to see u back
It would be fun to go paint-balling there.
Awesome explore. So cool to see this.
You’re the best bro, you’re the best 🙏🏽
Your videos are always interesting and entertaining
Very cool and fascinating, Chris! Be safe. ☮️
Thanks for letting us go along with you very interesting thanks for the video
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for your videos!
Another fantastic exploration
Thanks for sharing - I live near Cape Henlopen State Park across the bay in Delaware. There is one of these bunkers completely restored, gun and all, and an attached museum here at the old Fort Miles. It's awesome. Also some cool stuff in the woods, if you know where to look ; )
Another great adventure, and very informative. Really enjoy your site Chris.
Thanks!
@@MobileInstinct No problem!
Open to public

I have been there so many times I had no clue that the stuff was there. Thanks for sharing
I love your adventures you are so informative. You teach me so much and I see things I was not sure existed. Thank you so much
That's great to hear!
Great video..thank you!👍

Great video thank you
Great video, had no idea these existed.
Great video! For decades this garrison has been locked tight now it looks very accessible.
thank you for sharing my friend real interesting 🤔 history a lot of secret behind those concrete Walls
So Interesting! Thank you!
Great video, awesome....
Wasn’t this explore a bit creepy alone? Neat spot though! 👍🏻👍🏻
I've seen it and still can't believe you crawled in that tunnel, my claustrophobia went trough the roof
Great Channel💯
Awesome video
There are similar bunkers along the English coast. My mother grew up near Newcastle Upon Tyne, and after the war, those bunkers were converted into shops, restroom facilities, and picnic shelters. The same could be done with these bunkers you're investigating.
Very interesting I never knew this was out there? Thanks bringing it to our attention.
Very interesting, thank you
We've got batteries like this on the California coast too, they're super cool. But they're definitely an attraction as they're right along numerous hiking trails, at least north of San Francisco. Last time I was in one the gun emplacement was dug out and was basically a big pond, and had lots of salamanders and tadpoles
OMG- was waiting on this one for awhile! Haven’t been to Sandy Hook in years- what a beautiful view at the coastline. I loved the drive down Navsesink River Rd- lots of memories.
Woodbridge NJ Girl ❤❤❤
Thanks Chris,i didn't know any of this.
Another good one Chris, I could spend more than a day there,
and there's none of that too often seen boring tags or graffiti art, just the good ole fashioned legible juvenile style!
Yep! 🤠👍
That's so interesting. The military has used Sandy Hook since the 1800's but I had no idea of the scope of the bunker systems.
We were in Oahu on vacation and we went on a tour of the gun emplacements above Waikiki. Neat !
Hope you got to check out Twin Lights, the lighthouse in Highlands. Trivia tip: the architect was a chess freak so he made one a queen & the other a king. The last time we were out there my son looked for remnants of the old RR that went out that way. Earle Ammunition Depot juts out into Horseshoe Cove.
It's been a while since I stopped by the channel. Thanks for the tour Chris!
Thanks for stopping by!
Wow 😮Chris!! You’re absolutely amazing 💙🙏🏻🌟You find the best and most interesting things! The best channel on all TH-cam 🌟🙏🏻💙
I love how nature starts to take back over in time
Stinky sure seemed to get around a lot. 😆
My heart was racing and anxiety is a 10 with every turn!
Great content tho!!!
There are bunkers outside of Millville Airport, too. I used to fly over them.
Those 2 batteries are so much fun to explore. Haven’t been there in a few years. They stay very cool in the summer and they are spooky!
It was amazing in there
That passage you crawled through looks like a ventilation tunnel maybe for the generator?
I was stationed at Ft. Monmouth in the late 80s. A friend of mine had an MOS of "Nuclear Safety Officer". One thing he did was go out to Sandy Hook every so often to check for radiation. The reason is because during and right after WW2 they did atomic research in there... be careful where you go. It may be safe by now... maybe.
I'm a sucker for abandoned military installations 😊
But I wish you'd had a brighter light panel in there 😅
This complex is looks so much like and is the same era as Fort Casey on Whidbey Island Washington. Really enjoyable to see another historic coastal protection of our country. Thank you again Chirs.
In the 1970's, Fort Casey had a few more structures not present today. One was a square concrete communications bunker (allegedly). One way in/out, no windows. Inside was one pitch black narrow walkway surrounding a single, large center room. Go left, 4 right turns back to exit. Go right, 4 lefts. No flashlight? One would use their hands to find the path...or an oncoming person! Good times. Good times indeed!
We had those very structures in Panama when I was stationed at Ft. Sherman with the JOTC there. It was pretty wild. You should go down there and do a video on Ft San Lorenzo.
There's a BUNCH of this stuff at Fort Worden in WA. Fort Casey across the water is pretty neat, too.
Interesting! Thanks
That style of exterior gun/cannon was used a lot. I'm only familiar with it being used for the 16" radar directed cannons.
Love you and your video s
Great video as always but… When are we going to get another collab with Lamont? 😁
I grew up there. there is an additional bunker near Henry Hudson High School. Battery Kingman and Battery Hill were constructed in 1941 not 1917. The bunkers further out on Sandy Hook were constructed during the first world war and earlier. I also explored the Nike missile sites before they were filled in by the Parks and Recreation. This was in 1974.
ouuuu we have those at Fort Tabor/ Fort Rodman here in New Bedford MA. it’s in a gorgeous area by the water. last time i explored it was like 2008. so cool
Low sealing areas are cable and ventilation system passages
Very very interesting 🧐
Yes this is 💯 natural and very pleasant to watch, ❤ it
Thanks good man
I think for most governments these old fortifications are just to difficult to demolish, they where designed to resist it after all. I have visited a far few of these across the UK and some in Europe, incredible when they are in this state and fully intact enough to easily explore. Nice to see the ones in the US, the rooms with the concrete pedestals after the stoopy sections look like powder handling rooms where they open the big propellant cans and take out the bags to place on a scuttle of some kind to take to the guns.
The large rails used to handle the heavy shells are absent, the propellant bags do have some weight to them but a lot less plus they are in sections so you don't need the rails to move them. Propellant are lot more volatile too, they need very careful handling so you usually see small hatches with an opening and closing mechanism to pass them through hence the double stoopy hatch.
Great explore!
Why demolish
@@nickcancelliere5638 Number of reasons, mostly related to location. In a city or town the land can be valuable, they might also attract antisocial behavior.
In parts of Europe some of the WW2 ones people just wanted them removed for emotional or practical reasons, the Berlin Flak Towers are an example of that. No-one wanted them around as reminders, they tried to demolish them but it was quickly found to be impossible so they used rubble from the City to Bury one.
VERY COOL..SAFE TRAVELS..
Those batteries remind me of the ones at Ft. Mott.
Curious, what's behind the 'Mobile Instinct' name? Love your 2 channels.
That is a really cool place
Interesting history.
I was about to say, it looks haunted as hell "then, I saw the pentagram. Yep, it's haunted.
Their is cool old castle in Edinburgh that has old canyons that you can tour through.
Thank you. The first thing that comes to my mind is. Is it for sale? How much?
Thanks again!
Ive been to the hook..did you see the osprey nests on top of the old barrack houses?
This was Ft. Hancock. One of the beaches near there was the Officer’s Beach. I went there I was very little, and then explored these old buildings
That was interesting. Wonder what we'll do now?
Very cool to see this place Im in Michigan and never heard of this place even existing. Too bad the bunker with all the rooms is destroyed so bad it would be interesting to see what all them rooms were for...there looked to be a lot of them. We have nothing like this in Mich, that Ive ever heard of. Nice find!!!
You need to use a brighter flashlight so we can actually see when you are under ground or indoors.
I have for years wondered why these places were abandoned so frequently. They could have been repurposed as training locations for reserves and national guard very economically.
New joyzeee! When the zombie apocalypse occurs, those abandoned facilities would perhaps be helpful
"They were cones!" Love that movie
Great videos for the most part but you really need to get some quality lights like maybe olight products.
The Marauder Mini flashlight from olight would be ideal for many of your situations. The light output is adjustable and it switches from a flood light to a spot light at the click of a switch.
Terrific Chris! Really quite fascinating. And it is pretty funny that the older cement is holding up much better than the WWII era cement. Thanks for your hard work and your art. All the very best!
At 8:05 what does that woman say?? We’re you alone, was it a ghost or the wind!? Does She say “we’ve all been looking for you” or “we WILL be looking for you”?? mind blown
I’ve been to Sandy Hook many times but I never knew about this before!! Love your channel, keep it up!!
How not...huge fort and abandoned military buildings..signs to get there
@@nickcancelliere5638 I only went to the shore but didn’t get to visit further down so I just never noticed
I had no idea all that military history was there! All I ever knew about Sandy Hook was the terrible tragedy at the school. That was a great tour! I kept thinking some varmint was going to pop up along in those tunnels!! Thanks for taking us along! 😊
The tragedy was in Sandy Hook Connecticut, this is New Jersey.
I didn't know we had those kinda gun emplacements and bunkers on US soil. Thx for the FYI. 😊
Hello from Sweden 🇸🇪
The gun shell battery reminds me of The movie The Time Machine, 1960 version Book by H. G. Wells still scares me to death.
