@@HMTWNHERO510 Not true. The lawsuits were dismissed for lack of evidence, not because they were proven false. There is a huge difference between the two. I'm not saying he was guilty or innocent. I don't know one way or the other. But many people, including longtime supporters, think he is guilty. Therefore, the home is a crime scene and should not be turned into a tourist attraction. That's morbid.
Neverland was such a beautiful place. So sad what these money hungry criminals did to MJ and his beloved sanctuary. God bless you Michael. Truly one of a kind human being. 😢❤
Neverland had Michael's soul. He said he would never sell Neverland. No matter what happens this place will never be the same again, it died with him. I would had loved to have even a glimpse of Neverland at it's peak, but now this a dream forever gone 😢
I actually got to enjoy 5 days at Neverland in 2002 and wrote all about it, so let me know if you want me to paste the 10 chapters. EDIT: I don't know why I wasn't allowed to paste all 10 chapters in the replies. There must be something peculiar about that person's presence on this site. I'll email the whole thing if someone asks for it. But here are the first three: PART ONE: It all actually started a few months before Neverland (in March 2002). By that point, I'd known Chris Tucker for about a decade and we'd been working together to get some of his ideas down on paper for about a year. To say that Chris (CT) is spontaneous would be an understatement for the ages, so I was already accustomed to just bouncing with him at a moment's notice. One morning, I got a call to go to an airport in Van Nuys. Two hours later, I was on a private jet (CT and I being the only two passengers) to NY. It's kinda weird to think about it now, but I didn't ask any questions. CT's life was so much different by that point in comparison to what it was when we first became friends (almost getting kicked out of movie theatres for having popcorn fights and him coming to my parents' house to go jogging with me) that I was just focused on what we were working on and whatever we were doing when we were together. If he had a reason to be in NY and he wanted to work on ideas in and around that, so be it. When we got to NY, we checked into suites on different floors in the Palace Hotel. After going downstairs for dinner in the lobby restaurant, I have to admit that it was more than a bit strange that the only people in there (outside of the staff) were us... and former president Bill Clinton (with his secret service detail). I knew that he and CT were friends, so I didn't think that it was a coincidence, but... still kinda weird to meet a former president and shake his hand as he says, "Hi. I'm Bill" lol. CT even joked that I would have to be his security if anything crazy jumped off because I was all he had... So I assured him that if that happened, his goose was cooked - because I'd be running in the opposite direction of whichever way he went lol. Clinton finished eating first and left, and then we did. As we headed towards the elevators, I assumed that we were just going back to our own suites for the night, but CT stopped me from getting off on my floor, and then we didn’t get off on his either. Next thing I knew, we were getting off on the top floor and then we were in Michael Jackson's suite, and CT HAD NOT WARNED ME AT ALL! Bill Clinton was also in there and I WAS SHOOK. TOTALLY SHOOK! I was the only person with no business being in that room and just getting air into my lungs had become a problem. I was introduced, and I'm sure I mumbled something, but I just wanted to escape.

That story is important because I had my wits about me by the time we got to Neverland, and I don't want anyone to think that I was calm, cool, and collected (despite having met tons of famous folks growing up in and around the industry in L.A. by that point) in my first MJ encounter lol. PART TWO: Nothing MJ-related happened between that trip to NY and some day in June when, out of the blue, CT said: "Let's get away from everything and go to Mike's for the weekend." (Now, I obviously knew that CT and MJ were friends, but I'd also been around from the days when CT and I were both just huge fans. For a stretch in the 90's, I was his go-to "date" for some "Hollywood" stuff because he knew that I wouldn't embarrass him by fangirling on anybody - and also because we were so firmly in the friend zone that I wouldn't read anything into it and think I was going to end up being Mrs. Tucker. When Magic Johnson opened his theatre, there was a huge party - not that either one of us expected it to be a big deal because we regretted stuffing our faces with Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles earlier that day (the food at the party was insane and we just didn’t have room to partake of any of it; those Roscoe's waffles really do swell up like sponges lol) before changing clothes (sexy girly stuff and no more combat boots for me lol; I'm straight and don't mind that look on occasion. It just isn't particularly comfortable day in/day out) and meeting back up. And the security was ridonkulous. CT had to show his ID THREE different times before we even got out of the car (I was just his +1, so nobody cared about mine lol). We joked that they must be expecting the president, which is kinda ironic since Clinton was the president at the time lol. Anyhoo, we eventually figured out that the security was because MJ was stashed in one of the 16 or so theatres - and CT was determined to find him. We started poking our heads here and there, but we came up empty. When MJ finally emerged at some point to join Magic and say a few words, CT grabbed my wrist and dragged me through the crowd saying, "I've got to see this MF up close" lol. So it was still kinda odd to go from that to the quote about where to spend the weekend.) I took it in stride when CT made the suggestion because, as I said, his plans could change with no warning at all - and he also told me that I couldn't tell anybody - so I tried not to think about it too much. When the day finally came, he just told me to meet him at his house and that we'd go from there. I still wasn't believing it 100%, but off I went. When I got to CT's house, there was a huge bus parked in front of it (like a band tour bus), so it was starting to get more real; I knew we were going SOMEWHERE within driving distance. Inside CT's house, I was surprised to find three kids: Davellin, 16, Gavin, 13, and Star, 12. I had no idea who these kids were to CT or why he was taking them with us to Neverland, but I'd find out soon enough. (Fyi, these were the kids that ultimately put MJ on trial in 2005, so that’s a story also.) CT's assistant and his assistant's little brother were going too. I was kinda in my own world for the almost 3 hour drive to the Santa Ynez Valley, and kinda dumbstruck when we finally pulled through the gates of Neverland. I was actually there. I saw my first J-5 concert when I was 4 years old, saw the Jacksons and MJ multiple times after that (even flew home from college in TN TWICE for the Bad tour because MJ got sick in November and the last two dates were rescheduled for January) - and I was about to be the man's houseguest. Holy Fuck!!! PART THREE: Once inside the gates, there was some business to attend to before we got anywhere near the house (or the amusement park, theatre, zoo, or anything else Neverland was famous for). Someone from the guard station boarded the bus. Anyone (including CT) over 18 needed to sign an NDA before being allowed any further onto the property. Needless to say, I didn’t actually read it (who would under the circumstances? lol) so I’m just left to believe that I wasn’t supposed to talk to anyone (especially the press) about my time there (especially if anything would paint MJ in a bad light). After that, the bus went up the looooooong driveway (if you can call it that because it was more like a road) until it made a right. MJ’s house was then on the left, the guest cottages were on the right, and a fountain was right in front of us. Davellin was my roommate (we were the only two females) and everybody else bunked-in (nobody had their own room - including CT) to the rest of the cottages. In our room, Davellin (Davie) told me how they came to be on that trip with us (and I’ll try to condense it as much as possible). They met CT when they participated in a comedy workshop for kids at the Laugh Factory on the Sunset Strip. Not long after, Gavin was diagnosed with a particularly nasty form of kidney cancer and the doctors thought it would kill him. His “Make a Wish” was to meet MJ, so he did. While I personally believe that CT and MJ would have met each other eventually on their own, Gavin was the one who orchestrated their introduction, so MJ and CT’s relationship was mixed up with the Arvizos from the start; that’s why they were on that trip with us. When Gavin MIRACULOUSLY recovered (and I’m not being hyperbolic in saying that; the kid really was at death’s door), he credited his friendships with MJ and CT for giving him the strength to keep fighting. So that’s that. It turned out that MJ wasn’t in town when we arrived, and since we were only supposed to be staying for a couple days, he wouldn’t be there by the time we left either. But Prince and Paris were there, and Bigi (Blanket) too - but the world didn’t know about him yet.

He worked really hard for his fortune and was a generous giver, so he deserved to spend as much as he wanted, but some of these purchases though. A golden Oscar? Why? 😭😭😭😭
he did enjoy his life and his wealth. he was a really smart man. he knows how to use all those money to himself, his family, the people around him and to the world. i really admire this man, no one will ever stop me. luv u most.
He had to learn how to get used to his wealth because it was extraordinary in the 1980s. He should have entrusted his money to both Dick Gregory and Johnnie Cochran.
I want to express my support for ‘the detail.’ Your content is of such high quality, well-narrated, and well-put-together. Not only are you able to strike a balance between being entertaining and informative, but as a fan of ‘the artist,’ I also appreciate your journalistic integrity and objectivity. It sets you apart and makes your videos very intriguing.
@@mimimi169 No, it's an honest channel that provides a more realistic depiction of who the subject is. The truth is a hard pill to swallow, but it is always for your good. Truth heals, and there are seven boys/men out there that need healing.
@@dalnim4294 Interviewer: “…even the shape of your face has changed.” MJ: “No, I have had no plastic surgery. Just my nose. It helped me breathe better so I can hit higher notes.” Interviewer: “But are you Michael? Are you honestly saying that you’ve only ever had one operation?” MJ: “Two!! Interviewer: “Two?” MJ: “As I can remember…yah..just two” The autopsy revealed surgical scars that suggested he had likely undergone more than 10 cosmetic surgeries on his face. I was 13 when I watched the interview online and could already sense the deceit. As I grew older, his persona became less convincing. From Tatum O'Neill denying any advances towards him to many other things, I realized that if I wanted the truth about Michael, I wouldn't get it from Michael.
@@dalnim4294 Interviewer: “…even the shape of your face has changed.” MJ: “No, I have had no plastic surgery. Just my nose. It helped me breathe better so I can hit higher notes.” Interviewer: “But are you Michael? Are you honestly saying that you’ve only ever had one operation?” MJ: “Two!! Interviewer: “Two?” MJ: “As far as I can remember.” The autopsy revealed that he had surgical scars that suggest he may have had more than ten surgeries. To truly understand Michael, we must stop seeing him as a "god" or even "god-like." The man was flawed. As a former stan, I sense the reverence 'the detail' has for Michael. We can't continue to dismiss objective assessments and harass those who make them. That’s a very unhealthy worldview to have.
Yh what happened to 1972. My mate told me it got uploaded as we love MJ. I went to watch it and it wasn’t available ?🤔 he watched it before it got taken down for some reason.
@@thedetail. I put a little snippet of a mj rehearsal that you could have added in your last vid of a MJ rehearsal if anyone wants to see it aswell. You may have seen it already probably
I get why he would build such a lavish ranch. At a level of fame like his, you can't just decide to go somewhere like Disneyland for a day and hope you won't be spotted, because you definitely will and will absolutely be SWARMED. For the sake of his safety, he couldn't go, and he had the money to build his own, so why not?
I love to visit Neverland ranch and I will go there once in my life for sure sure 💯💯💯 That place is not just a ordinary place but it's a pilgrimage to The Michael's fan's ❣️❣️❣️❣️ Miss u Michael 😢😢😢 Lovvveeeddd you Michael forever 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 💞💞💞 Long live the King 👑❤️🙏
Today, in 2024, almost all high-performance athletes use hyperbaric chambers. Back then, Michael was a visionary. but the tabloids, particularly the British ones, used that to show him as a weirdo.
It would be interesting to watch the video from the hangar where Michael's things were taken again. I saw those cars there that you showed in that video❤
I will admit that a lot of his art pieces look concerning, but I’m sure they looked for finger prints on the statue genitals, and evidently didn’t find anything. As for the ‘adult magazines’ mentioned, they probably depicted adult women in them, otherwise the court would have given it more attention. Michael’s artistic taste in his statues was obviously really disagreeable but it really reiterates the fact that he literally had a solid subconscious belief that he was a child
He had a huge obsession w returning to a young boy again, man I understand his trauma, but the world we live in isn't a place that fits people w this mindset yk? I am not saying he is weird, but his thoughts just doesn't fit our world
He actually brought the chamber for a hospital while on tour and wanted to test it out n a couple of photos were taken he e ded up buying the chamber from the hospital when they upgraded Justin Bieber actually has one a d uses it in he's most recent documentary on youtube
I always wanna visit that place when Michael was still alive. And now too, if I had a chance to go to US, I think I'll visit Neverland. Just to remember everything about Michael that might still linger.

Fact 7: the doorknob isn’t two little boys kissing. It’s a male and a female - commonly identified as Romeo and Juliet. You can find it on various websites.
This one definitely looks like two children kissing. I just googled victorian + doorknob + kissing. The ones I see on google images actually look like adult heads. This one seems to depict 2 children kissing. Not the same.
@@Smither-Hands one of them definitely looks like a little boy’s head and I would have guessed the other one that got a hooked nose is male too though it’s hard to see. What do you see?
@@KlMMl I see what all the others depict of the same design: a man and a woman, and this was confirmed by Allan Scanlan who worked at Neverland. Unless there’s proof that it’s a variant of two men kissing or that it’s indeed depicting children, we can only speculate and nothing more.
@@Smither-Hands the photographer who took the pic described it as “two boys kissing” that’s why the narrator says so. I believe they’re actually cherubs that are made to look like 2 boys. In any case, it definitely doesn’t depict a man and woman.
@@Meaniewinnie You just watched the same exact video as I did, showcasing his ridiculous and extravagant purchases. If it wasn't my business then it wasn't yours either! And yet here you are.
@@OMG_BeCkY well babe the difference between you and me is that I am not pushing my face into his money or how he went bankrupt or not. Just for fun It's called entertainment industry after all, not my or your business how celebrities spend their money unless they spend their money on weapons that harm you or your people
Because he was with the wrong people around him. He earned 25 million per year for doing nothing in his last years. So many bad advisors who just wanna a piece of a cake
Neverland was MJ'S sanctuary, and his true home. It should be a museum like Graceland. Great video from the detail. Long live the king of pop. 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it
Yes! It should be turned into a museum!
That's one way to look at it. But it's also a crime scene if you choose to believe any of the many accusers.
@@jm7804they’ve all been proven false
@@HMTWNHERO510 Not true. The lawsuits were dismissed for lack of evidence, not because they were proven false. There is a huge difference between the two. I'm not saying he was guilty or innocent.

The most wonderful thing about Neverland? It was the fact that Michael shared that place with so many in hopes of brightening their lives a bit.

Know what was the worst thing about Neverland?
The fact that many children were raped there.

EDIT: I don't know why I wasn't allowed to paste all 10 chapters in the replies. There must be something peculiar about that person's presence on this site. I'll email the whole thing if someone asks for it. But here are the first three: PART ONE: It all actually started a few months before Neverland (in March 2002). By that point, I'd known Chris Tucker for about a decade and we'd been working together to get some of his ideas down on paper for about a year. To say that Chris (CT) is spontaneous would be an understatement for the ages, so I was already accustomed to just bouncing with him at a moment's notice. One morning, I got a call to go to an airport in Van Nuys. Two hours later, I was on a private jet (CT and I being the only two passengers) to NY. It's kinda weird to think about it now, but I didn't ask any questions. CT's life was so much different by that point in comparison to what it was when we first became friends (almost getting kicked out of movie theatres for having popcorn fights and him coming to my parents' house to go jogging with me) that I was just focused on what we were working on and whatever we were doing when we were together. If he had a reason to be in NY and he wanted to work on ideas in and around that, so be it. When we got to NY, we checked into suites on different floors in the Palace Hotel. After going downstairs for dinner in the lobby restaurant, I have to admit that it was more than a bit strange that the only people in there (outside of the staff) were us... and former president Bill Clinton (with his secret service detail). I knew that he and CT were friends, so I didn't think that it was a coincidence, but... still kinda weird to meet a former president and shake his hand as he says, "Hi. I'm Bill" lol. CT even joked that I would have to be his security if anything crazy jumped off because I was all he had... So I assured him that if that happened, his goose was cooked - because I'd be running in the opposite direction of whichever way he went lol. Clinton finished eating first and left, and then we did. As we headed towards the elevators, I assumed that we were just going back to our own suites for the night, but CT stopped me from getting off on my floor, and then we didn’t get off on his either. Next thing I knew, we were getting off on the top floor and then we were in Michael Jackson's suite, and CT HAD NOT WARNED ME AT ALL! Bill Clinton was also in there and I WAS SHOOK. TOTALLY SHOOK! I was the only person with no business being in that room and just getting air into my lungs had become a problem. I was introduced, and I'm sure I mumbled something, but I just wanted to escape. When the three of them started doing impersonations of each other, I made up some reason to leave (that I don't even remember) and BOLTED! So... That story is important because I had my wits about me by the time we got to Neverland, and I don't want anyone to think that I was calm, cool, and collected (despite having met tons of famous folks growing up in and around the industry in L.A. by that point) in my first MJ encounter lol.
PART TWO: Nothing MJ-related happened between that trip to NY and some day in June when, out of the blue, CT said: "Let's get away from everything and go to Mike's for the weekend." (Now, I obviously knew that CT and MJ were friends, but I'd also been around from the days when CT and I were both just huge fans. For a stretch in the 90's, I was his go-to "date" for some "Hollywood" stuff because he knew that I wouldn't embarrass him by fangirling on anybody - and also because we were so firmly in the friend zone that I wouldn't read anything into it and think I was going to end up being Mrs. Tucker. When Magic Johnson opened his theatre, there was a huge party - not that either one of us expected it to be a big deal because we regretted stuffing our faces with Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles earlier that day (the food at the party was insane and we just didn’t have room to partake of any of it; those Roscoe's waffles really do swell up like sponges lol) before changing clothes (sexy girly stuff and no more combat boots for me lol; I'm straight and don't mind that look on occasion. It just isn't particularly comfortable day in/day out) and meeting back up. And the security was ridonkulous. CT had to show his ID THREE different times before we even got out of the car (I was just his +1, so nobody cared about mine lol). We joked that they must be expecting the president, which is kinda ironic since Clinton was the president at the time lol. Anyhoo, we eventually figured out that the security was because MJ was stashed in one of the 16 or so theatres - and CT was determined to find him. We started poking our heads here and there, but we came up empty. When MJ finally emerged at some point to join Magic and say a few words, CT grabbed my wrist and dragged me through the crowd saying, "I've got to see this MF up close" lol. So it was still kinda odd to go from that to the quote about where to spend the weekend.) I took it in stride when CT made the suggestion because, as I said, his plans could change with no warning at all - and he also told me that I couldn't tell anybody - so I tried not to think about it too much. When the day finally came, he just told me to meet him at his house and that we'd go from there. I still wasn't believing it 100%, but off I went. When I got to CT's house, there was a huge bus parked in front of it (like a band tour bus), so it was starting to get more real; I knew we were going SOMEWHERE within driving distance. Inside CT's house, I was surprised to find three kids: Davellin, 16, Gavin, 13, and Star, 12. I had no idea who these kids were to CT or why he was taking them with us to Neverland, but I'd find out soon enough. (Fyi, these were the kids that ultimately put MJ on trial in 2005, so that’s a story also.) CT's assistant and his assistant's little brother were going too. I was kinda in my own world for the almost 3 hour drive to the Santa Ynez Valley, and kinda dumbstruck when we finally pulled through the gates of Neverland. I was actually there. I saw my first J-5 concert when I was 4 years old, saw the Jacksons and MJ multiple times after that (even flew home from college in TN TWICE for the Bad tour because MJ got sick in November and the last two dates were rescheduled for January) - and I was about to be the man's houseguest. Holy Fuck!!!
PART THREE: Once inside the gates, there was some business to attend to before we got anywhere near the house (or the amusement park, theatre, zoo, or anything else Neverland was famous for). Someone from the guard station boarded the bus. Anyone (including CT) over 18 needed to sign an NDA before being allowed any further onto the property. Needless to say, I didn’t actually read it (who would under the circumstances? lol) so I’m just left to believe that I wasn’t supposed to talk to anyone (especially the press) about my time there (especially if anything would paint MJ in a bad light). After that, the bus went up the looooooong driveway (if you can call it that because it was more like a road) until it made a right. MJ’s house was then on the left, the guest cottages were on the right, and a fountain was right in front of us. Davellin was my roommate (we were the only two females) and everybody else bunked-in (nobody had their own room - including CT) to the rest of the cottages. In our room, Davellin (Davie) told me how they came to be on that trip with us (and I’ll try to condense it as much as possible). They met CT when they participated in a comedy workshop for kids at the Laugh Factory on the Sunset Strip. Not long after, Gavin was diagnosed with a particularly nasty form of kidney cancer and the doctors thought it would kill him. His “Make a Wish” was to meet MJ, so he did. While I personally believe that CT and MJ would have met each other eventually on their own, Gavin was the one who orchestrated their introduction, so MJ and CT’s relationship was mixed up with the Arvizos from the start; that’s why they were on that trip with us. When Gavin MIRACULOUSLY recovered (and I’m not being hyperbolic in saying that; the kid really was at death’s door), he credited his friendships with MJ and CT for giving him the strength to keep fighting. So that’s that. It turned out that MJ wasn’t in town when we arrived, and since we were only supposed to be staying for a couple days, he wouldn’t be there by the time we left either. But Prince and Paris were there, and Bigi (Blanket) too - but the world didn’t know about him yet.
@@KB-xp6dq how awesome OMG yes please ❤
@@RiiJaay-f4g PART ONE: It all actually started a few months before Neverland (in March 2002). By that point, I'd known Chris Tucker for about a decade and we'd been working together to get some of his ideas down on paper for about a year. To say that Chris (CT) is spontaneous would be an understatement for the ages, so I was already accustomed to just bouncing with him at a moment's notice. One morning, I got a call to go to an airport in Van Nuys. Two hours later, I was on a private jet (CT and I being the only two passengers) to NY. It's kinda weird to think about it now, but I didn't ask any questions. CT's life was so much different by that point in comparison to what it was when we first became friends (almost getting kicked out of movie theatres for having popcorn fights and him coming to my parents' house to go jogging with me) that I was just focused on what we were working on and whatever we were doing when we were together. If he had a reason to be in NY and he wanted to work on ideas in and around that, so be it. When we got to NY, we checked into suites on different floors in the Palace Hotel. After going downstairs for dinner in the lobby restaurant, I have to admit that it was more than a bit strange that the only people in there (outside of the staff) were us... and former president Bill Clinton (with his secret service detail). I knew that he and CT were friends, so I didn't think that it was a coincidence, but... still kinda weird to meet a former president and shake his hand as he says, "Hi. I'm Bill" lol. CT even joked that I would have to be his security if anything crazy jumped off because I was all he had... So I assured him that if that happened, his goose was cooked - because I'd be running in the opposite direction of whichever way he went lol. Clinton finished eating first and left, and then we did. As we headed towards the elevators, I assumed that we were just going back to our own suites for the night, but CT stopped me from getting off on my floor, and then we didn’t get off on his either. Next thing I knew, we were getting off on the top floor and then we were in Michael Jackson's suite, and CT HAD NOT WARNED ME AT ALL! Bill Clinton was also in there and I WAS SHOOK. TOTALLY SHOOK! I was the only person with no business being in that room and just getting air into my lungs had become a problem. I was introduced, and I'm sure I mumbled something, but I just wanted to escape. When the three of them started doing impersonations of each other, I made up some reason to leave (that I don't even remember) and BOLTED! So... That story is important because I had my wits about me by the time we got to Neverland, and I don't want anyone to think that I was calm, cool, and collected (despite having met tons of famous folks growing up in and around the industry in L.A. by that point) in my first MJ encounter lol.
@@RiiJaay-f4g PART TWO: Nothing MJ-related happened between that trip to NY and some day in June when, out of the blue, CT said: "Let's get away from everything and go to Mike's for the weekend." (Now, I obviously knew that CT and MJ were friends, but I'd also been around from the days when CT and I were both just huge fans. For a stretch in the 90's, I was his go-to "date" for some "Hollywood" stuff because he knew that I wouldn't embarrass him by fangirling on anybody - and also because we were so firmly in the friend zone that I wouldn't read anything into it and think I was going to end up being Mrs. Tucker. When Magic Johnson opened his theatre, there was a huge party - not that either one of us expected it to be a big deal because we regretted stuffing our faces with Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles earlier that day (the food at the party was insane and we just didn’t have room to partake of any of it; those Roscoe's waffles really do swell up like sponges lol) before changing clothes (sexy girly stuff and no more combat boots for me lol; I'm straight and don't mind that look on occasion. It just isn't particularly comfortable day in/day out) and meeting back up. And the security was ridonkulous. CT had to show his ID THREE different times before we even got out of the car (I was just his +1, so nobody cared about mine lol). We joked that they must be expecting the president, which is kinda ironic since Clinton was the president at the time lol. Anyhoo, we eventually figured out that the security was because MJ was stashed in one of the 16 or so theatres - and CT was determined to find him. We started poking our heads here and there, but we came up empty. When MJ finally emerged at some point to join Magic and say a few words, CT grabbed my wrist and dragged me through the crowd saying, "I've got to see this MF up close" lol. So it was still kinda odd to go from that to the quote about where to spend the weekend.)

He worked really hard for his fortune and was a generous giver, so he deserved to spend as much as he wanted, but some of these purchases though. A golden Oscar? Why? 😭😭😭😭
he did enjoy his life and his wealth. he was a really smart man. he knows how to use all those money to himself, his family, the people around him and to the world. i really admire this man, no one will ever stop me. luv u most.
He had to learn how to get used to his wealth because it was extraordinary in the 1980s. He should have entrusted his money to both Dick Gregory and Johnnie Cochran.
I'm so pleased this video used the word iconic more than once.
Michael: "Neverland is me"
❤
I actually have a cousin who got to visit neverland he said it was the most beautiful place anyone could see
I love your videos! You’ve helped me learn so much about MJ! ❤😊
I'm so glad!
And then in 2003 after the police raid his home, he said "Neverland is not home anymore".. and he stopped living there until he passed away 😔
I want to express my support for ‘the detail.’ Your content is of such high quality, well-narrated, and well-put-together. Not only are you able to strike a balance between being entertaining and informative, but as a fan of ‘the artist,’ I also appreciate your journalistic integrity and objectivity. It sets you apart and makes your videos very intriguing.
Glad you enjoy it!
lol what it’s a hater channel.
@@mimimi169 No, it's an honest channel that provides a more realistic depiction of who the subject is. The truth is a hard pill to swallow, but it is always for your good. Truth heals, and there are seven boys/men out there that need healing.
@@dalnim4294
Interviewer: “…even the shape of your face has changed.”
MJ: “No, I have had no plastic surgery. Just my nose. It helped me breathe better so I can hit higher notes.”
Interviewer: “But are you Michael? Are you honestly saying that you’ve only ever had one operation?”
MJ: “Two!!
Interviewer: “Two?”
MJ: “As I can remember…yah..just two”
The autopsy revealed surgical scars that suggested he had likely undergone more than 10 cosmetic surgeries on his face. I was 13 when I watched the interview online and could already sense the deceit. As I grew older, his persona became less convincing. From Tatum O'Neill denying any advances towards him to many other things, I realized that if I wanted the truth about Michael, I wouldn't get it from Michael.
@@dalnim4294 Interviewer: “…even the shape of your face has changed.”

MJ: “As far as I can remember.”
The autopsy revealed that he had surgical scars that suggest he may have had more than ten surgeries. To truly understand Michael, we must stop seeing him as a "god" or even "god-like." The man was flawed. As a former stan, I sense the reverence 'the detail' has for Michael. We can't continue to dismiss objective assessments and harass those who make them. That’s a very unhealthy worldview to have.
Insane facts indeed 😅 it was his home his money so he could do whatever he wanted! Great job "the detail" 👍
Yes! Thank you!
We need 1972 Year in Review
Next week!
Thanks for these facts, it helps us to understand what Neverland really was
Yall busters removed the other video. Yall aint slick. Put it back
Yh what happened to 1972. My mate told me it got uploaded as we love MJ. I went to watch it and it wasn’t available ?🤔 he watched it before it got taken down for some reason.
That’s next week’s video, my bad! 😬
@@thedetail.Okay, I was worried it was blocked or something. No worries. Keep up your good work mate 👍
@@thedetail. I put a little snippet of a mj rehearsal that you could have added in your last vid of a MJ rehearsal if anyone wants to see it aswell. You may have seen it already probably
@@thedetail. i was in the middle of it when it just stopped. Might as well release it.
5:41 Michael's silhouette in the right on the bushes and window XD
I get why he would build such a lavish ranch. At a level of fame like his, you can't just decide to go somewhere like Disneyland for a day and hope you won't be spotted, because you definitely will and will absolutely be SWARMED. For the sake of his safety, he couldn't go, and he had the money to build his own, so why not?
Don't you think he wants to leave a normal life. Please reason otherwise
Great job my friend. Greeting from Dominican Republic.
I love to visit Neverland ranch and I will go there once in my life for sure sure 💯💯💯
That place is not just a ordinary place but it's a pilgrimage to The Michael's fan's ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Miss u Michael 😢😢😢
Lovvveeeddd you Michael forever 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
💞💞💞
Long live the King 👑❤️🙏
Today, in 2024, almost all high-performance athletes use hyperbaric chambers. Back then, Michael was a visionary. but the tabloids, particularly the British ones, used that to show him as a weirdo.
Love Michael Jackson Michael Jackson❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My brother visited the ranch long time ago, he actually played one of the games with Michael in the arcade
Cool
I hope I get to visit Neverland when I visit LA. Manifesting this!!!
It’s long gone now it sold a few years ago. The animals are gone the trains removed not the same
Michael Jackson is the number one king of pop music, I love him very much, he is in my heart❤️
Me too
In my opinon, Neverland should be a museum were they offer tours. The place it's too iconic to be left to be dusted.
Michael is King.
Show this video to the rappers. 😂😂
It would be interesting to watch the video from the hangar where Michael's things were taken again. I saw those cars there that you showed in that video❤
The MOST WONDERFUL AND COOLEST HOME OF MICHAEL JACKSON. 🏡🏡🗺️🗺️💖💖💞💞❤️❤️💓💓👑👑💎💎🌟🌟🌈🌈✨✨
❤❤❤ love your videos 😍
He was a big kid ❤❤❤
RIP Michael we all love and miss you 😞😞😞
I will admit that a lot of his art pieces look concerning, but I’m sure they looked for finger prints on the statue genitals, and evidently didn’t find anything. As for the ‘adult magazines’ mentioned, they probably depicted adult women in them, otherwise the court would have given it more attention. Michael’s artistic taste in his statues was obviously really disagreeable but it really reiterates the fact that he literally had a solid subconscious belief that he was a child
They were adult magazines of women
Most of those are pieces you can find at a museum. And it's already been stated he had adult magazines of nude women
@@thedetail. yeah, that’s what I said
@@mechajay3358 yes I know, I wasn’t suggesting the magazines had anything else in them
He had a huge obsession w returning to a young boy again, man I understand his trauma, but the world we live in isn't a place that fits people w this mindset yk? I am not saying he is weird, but his thoughts just doesn't fit our world
I love Neverland very much 🍀✨🌿💚🍀✨🦋🌿💚🍀✨🌿💚🍀✨🦋🌿💚
I always want to go to Neverland but I never get my chances at it.
OMG......you mean to tell me the most famous man on the planet had a panic room in his house??????
Love mj forever
O Lord Michael Jackson is just so amazing he lived in this great place out of good choice he is perfect him self💖💖💖💖💖💖
He actually brought the chamber for a hospital while on tour and wanted to test it out n a couple of photos were taken he e ded up buying the chamber from the hospital when they upgraded Justin Bieber actually has one a d uses it in he's most recent documentary on youtube
I saw that, crazy!
Спасибо!
It's Foliage. Fo-lee-age. Foilage... 😂
What happened to Michael’s year review of 1972 the detail? My mate watched it. He sent the video to me then I couldn’t watch it?
Please do a video of the now defunct MJJ records and all the prodigies he had in the 90’s .
I wish he never would've been that generous towards the world, I wish he never opened the gates of his soul to everybody to come in....
The secret room was already there then he bought the property
Glad you changed the thumbnail cuz the original was not it.
Haha the thumbnail A/B testing proved that! Good to experiment though 😁
Can u please make a video on shana mangtal and Michael Jackson... I want to know who was she??
She is a liar.
2 videos?
Inspirational 🗝️✨
Mike ain’t even dead, he’s somewhere chillin being left alone.
1:15 it's pronounced Fo-lee-edge. I wouldn't point stuff like that out normally, but that mispronunciation is literally a joke from The Simpsons too 😅
5:40. That's MJ on the side of the building. 🤔
He was definitely innocent but those dolls look so creepy lmao
Nice video. A bit of an abrupt end though.
I have an idea for a future video
I always wanna visit that place when Michael was still alive. And now too, if I had a chance to go to US, I think I'll visit Neverland. Just to remember everything about Michael that might still linger.

Gente, o que foi aquilo no minuto 08 😮
A fan kissed his cheek when they were in a crowd 😂
Como hago Para bloquear este canal?
8:22 didnt know Michael was that dirty 😅
He was human
Nothing nothing new !!!! 07:55 it is not MJ. I know that excatly ….
Really?!? Never knew that!
And who is he?
Fact 7: the doorknob isn’t two little boys kissing. It’s a male and a female - commonly identified as Romeo and Juliet. You can find it on various websites.
This one definitely looks like two children kissing. I just googled victorian + doorknob + kissing. The ones I see on google images actually look like adult heads. This one seems to depict 2 children kissing. Not the same.
@@KlMMl It’s certainly not two boys as what’s said here, though. And there are variants of the design, but is there proof it’s depicting children?
@@Smither-Hands one of them definitely looks like a little boy’s head and I would have guessed the other one that got a hooked nose is male too though it’s hard to see. What do you see?
@@KlMMl I see what all the others depict of the same design: a man and a woman, and this was confirmed by Allan Scanlan who worked at Neverland. Unless there’s proof that it’s a variant of two men kissing or that it’s indeed depicting children, we can only speculate and nothing more.
@@Smither-Hands the photographer who took the pic described it as “two boys kissing” that’s why the narrator says so. I believe they’re actually cherubs that are made to look like 2 boys. In any case, it definitely doesn’t depict a man and woman.
Gee I wonder why he went bankrupt.
Don't need to be smug about it.
Simple answer: not your money, not your bank account, not your business ❤
@@Meaniewinnie You just watched the same exact video as I did, showcasing his ridiculous and extravagant purchases. If it wasn't my business then it wasn't yours either! And yet here you are.
@@OMG_BeCkY well babe the difference between you and me is that I am not pushing my face into his money or how he went bankrupt or not. Just for fun
It's called entertainment industry after all, not my or your business how celebrities spend their money unless they spend their money on weapons that harm you or your people
Because he was with the wrong people around him. He earned 25 million per year for doing nothing in his last years. So many bad advisors who just wanna a piece of a cake
