#47 Are there Ghosts and a Secret Bunker at Remac Mine?

- Опубликовано: 12 апр 2017
- Down a 1,000 ft shaft to explore claims of a secret underground bunker and Ghosts. A place very few have been able to reach in this 3,000 ft deep mine! The Remac was a large Zinc and Lead mine that sunk a 3000 foot shaft that went under a river right next to the USA border. The mine closed in the early 70s and the buildings in the town were sold at auction and hauled away.

You've got balls of granite to explore and film this mine by your self. Thank you for taking us on an interesting journey.
If I were you, I would bring a walking stick with me to the flooded mines so you can test for holes under cloudy water. Plus, it's a walking stick, all it can do is make things easier.
I'm addicted to this channel I just happened to stumble across it and now I'm binge watching it. Great content!
This brought back many memories for my husband and he was able to explain to me where you were, and what some of the things were and what he did for a living when we were first married. Many memories!
That is great to hear. Nothing makes me happier than being able to produce films that bring these wonderful places to generations in the future long after they are collapsed and caved in. It would be great to produce a film that is narrated by someone who actually worked there.
Amazing to see a place that hadn't been vandalized
Marilyn Neil bless him he was so courageous xxx
Amazing. What these miners had to deal with every day is beyond belief xxx
How lovely😊. I've connected with my dad over me being obsessed with these vids and him being an ex miner(coal-UK-Kent-Snowdown Colliery).
All very brave souls. X
We lived in Remac , moved there in 1948. My dad was the cook and for the first while we lived in a tar paper shack down on the river. Moved up to the mai townsite after the the first bunch of houses were built. Left in probably 52 or 53 when it first started to play out. Years later dad cooked in a tent camp across the river for a diamond drilling crew working in the Redbird. I used to spend weekends with him and went underground with the crew one day. Very strange feeling for a fourteen year old.
Is the Redbird accessed by a vertical shaft or is there a portal?
You must be 70 something
Try more like 83 or 84....
I can’t believe you went down 1000 feet alone! Talk about coconuts! Respect! 👍🏼👍🏼
Ghosts aside isn’t that dangerous? Or
I watch many mine investigation channels and yours is the best. You take risks and go into places others would turn away from. That makes you and your channel A+ in my opinion. Keep up the good work, and I hope RUclips gets back to paying creators the amount of money that they should be getting.
I think it is a pretty good system, the more viewers you have the more you get paid so it is a good incentive. Mind you $150 a month doesn't go too far!
I swear Frank, your like the Steve Erwin of holes in the ground. And i'll be right here to watch every adventure. Thank you for the hours of dedication and the effort you put into filming and editing and keeping out the creepy pasta BS that my mind would make up if i were down there too.
Love your mine exploration video's frank, and I'm saying this while currently 3200 feet underground in a mine at my office computer haha.
You're 💯% hardcore Frank! To go 1000" down a shaft that even search and rescue had said no too haha! I love it your vids are simply the best. Whenever I watch other mine exploration videos all I think is "Frank would have gone through that gap or down that ladder" when you said you were alone down there my jaw hit the floor!
Ha ha so true thanks!
He is the difference between knowing what you are doing and not knowing.
Thank you for taking us your journey on the tour of this mine.
Wow another great video .... Thanks !
I love these videos. The scenery is stunning.
Awesome that you were able to get down into what is essentially a virgin mine in exploring terms... I doubt there are many people that will follow you down there in the future either given the logistics of descending 1,000 feet of rope! Thanks for taking us down there. I'm glad the drone got away with only minor damage!
Frankly given the challenges and dangers of going that far down I think most people would conclude it isn't worth going down there!
Haha, well, I suppose that is what separates crazy mine explorers like us from most everyone else...
You give Frankly a new meaning.
What a great mine to explore. 1000 feet straight down will deter just about anyone, though I'm surprised you did it with a single rope. For something that deep, I think I'd want a surface team on main and belay. :)
You can't get too worked up about the thousand feet it is just one step at a time.
just went down there yesterday, it was awesome. Even without any rope just exploring the upper area accessible by foot is mindblowing.
I wanna explore there. Not sure how to get there though.
@@timsawchuk8441 yeah, best to go with someone who knows it. I went through salmo, down pretty much right to the border then drove down the pend d'oreille road for maybe 15 minutes? Been a while now. Eventually we took a right and followed that road further up, and that takes you to the mine.
Good luck! Keep asking, I bet a local would know better than I do
That ghost scared the shit out of me! Good job catching it on camera Frank!
It wasn't moving too fast!
Thanks Frank...Be safe, as you can.
Wonderful Exploration!! Many Thanks!
Great one
You are a braver man then I will ever be. I would never go down into a mine a thousand feet deep down. Thanks for the great videos too.
this is amazingly beautiful!
Thanks so much for sharing! I love exploring the Remac mines. It would be so cool to go down as far as you have been!
It is a lot of work to go that far in. There are many interesting places that are much easier to get to. At least the locals will quit talking about the underground bunker!
From over The pond,,, yet again guys ACE,, keep safe lads down there
beautiful surroundings...and your place looks amazing,thanks for sharing.
Thanks yes.... we have a nice place!
Awesome videos and commentary ,, keep up the great work!!
Fascinating, many thanks from the UK.
Hello from France, what a pleasure to watch your videos, I am intrigue of Paranormal phenomena at the bottom of the mines, what courage to dig so deep, be careful to enjoy chatting with you
Thanks for this video, very good tour!
As far as I'm concerned, you are the only guy who really explores mines!!!
i enjoy watching. admire u...u brave man
The Ghost was really scary!
Awesome!
OMG THAT WAS A CLIMED & A HALF DOWN THERE FRANK BUT YOU DID A GREAT JOB AND THANK'S FOR THE TOUR BUD COULD NOT DONE IT WITH OUT YOU THUMBS UP TO YA MAN COOL .
Glad you enjoyed it Frank!
22:39 a ghost attacks
That is cool, thanks Frank.
Thanks I am glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent Frank, that mine is unbelievable, fantastic video....!
It is one of my favorite mines!
Fearless 💪💪
thank you for all your post!!
You are welcome....thanks for watching!
Oh man you are braver than 99% of people. I found an old graphite mine when i was a kid and explored 2-3 chambers and that was as far as i could go. You have a new fan here.
Your video's are fantastic Frank. I watch them regularly with interest. You are the epitome of a true explorer but I worry about you what with your plane crash, going in to mines alone and getting too close to "bottomless Pits" so continue to be very careful and I will continue to watch with great interest.
awesome video. I was soo cool seing that big old blower fan.
awesome vid as always, I think it would be interesting to see more of the adventure in as well as out
Good for you man. Way to rugged your way through that rock maze. Balls of steel.
Excellent flight skills-Sir.
Cheers!
Interesting videos. Liked seeing the old equipment and the two drum slusher and scraper seen in this one. Recall running a three-drum slusher and small scraper in tiny square set gold stopes a few years back. Looking up some of those Shrinkage Stopes brings back memories too. Not much room to work in 27" width!
Stunning video!! I am blowin away to think you were down there alone. Man Frank, ur the coolest guy on the planet!
Wow, thanks!
These mines are so cool 🍻
yes somebody should sign him up to his own TV show awesome Frank keep it up thanks for another great video
I have a pen!
Exploring Abandoned Mines In BC yes right somebody does need to sign you up your going to places that I would never go into keep up the good work be safe looking forward to more videos you're a blast to watch the Drone shots are a bonus
Never do that they would add to much drama too it like every reality show does unless you had full control of it which they never give up even tho your vids are by far the BEST
@@giantss2007 your right
So brave xxx
Another great video Frank. You are by far the most entertaining RUclips explorer I have followed. As much as I agree a tv show would be cool, the producers would most likely introduce un-needed drama, suspense or other things. We all appreciate your dedication and gritty videos. Cant wait for your summer exploring to resume!
I was there with some friends in 1989
It was fall time. We just went down to the first level. A bit spooky as in dangerous so we left safely wondering what was down there our friend Scotty had the actual map and he had a scale sized Empire State building to compare. I wish I could find that map from the mines Dept. Probably in Archives somewhere. We drove to the bottom by the river there was a large drift that was probably connected to the large main shaft. We supposed Great work by the way. I was riveted. Thank you.
Man Frank, that is nuts that you got that far down and found all that old equipment like the old train switch and all those old ore carts. And on top of that you broke the bunker hoax. Like you said the day it shut down they just grabbed what they could and ran for the hills. Ether was you are awesome for doing that and just great video.
Thanks it was quite the challenge to get to the bottom of this one!
Glad to see you going it alone. Sometimes that is just the way it is.
Epic.
Great video, my family lived in Remac when my dad worked in the mine.
Good trip.
Love your videos man, there informative and entertaining...what more could Ya ask for!
you are super brave man, wow very nice
Awesome as Always Frank. Thanks 4 Another Adventure. The Drone Footage & flying is Fricking Amazing Man...!!!
It is a great machine that does an awesome job!
The camera on the drone is amazing!
Really enjoyed the episode where you found the jeans.
Great video!
Great video u are a brave man!!!!risked your life to make this video big thumbs up dude
Exploring Abandoned Mines in BC, Thanks so much for showing this to everyone that's curious! I love BC and spent a lot of family trips in a motorhome touring around. I'm hoping to get up there now, from Northern California, with my own sons & hubby so they can see how beautiful it is! 1973 was a great year btw, and you definitely have a new subscriber! Best of luck getting your own show, it would be 110% better than most of the crap that passes as "entertainment"! Stay safe out there please! You are truly One in a Million!!
Thanks for your kind words Jen!
Your very brave.
lol@ghost🤣.
that must've been a lot of work hauling those metal fans in that far.
22:40 Man down!! 😂😂
Well I think you got more than your boot wet And another great video and if we see the video we know you got out safe
That was an awesome adventure Frank. Once again I say thank you for taking the time to film and upload this to youtube for your ever increasing subscribers to see. I always enjoy your narration, it’s insightful and interesting. You also make me laugh when you’re cussing. I look forward to your next explore. Stay safe.
Thanks Barb I enjoy your comments!
So many great relics down there. It would be a real project to get any of them up and out though. I have seen many rock bolts used in mines, and now I see them being used to try to repair the Lake Oroville Dam spillway about 30 miles from me.
I have wonderful memories of living on the mining property when I was a kid, mid sixties for five years. The guys worked so hard but rents were inexpensive with company housing. It was remote, living on top of the mountain! But beautiful - the PendOreille looked like a green snake, like Emerald Lake, in the Rockies. It was hard to move away... beautiful part of the country.
I bet it was heartbreaking to see the buildings hauled away and demolished after the mine and town closed. It is a beautiful place!
Golden ghost aye hotels are the same 😏 loved the vid frank
The scenery and narration are great 👍 and it’s 100% Canadian content 😎🍻
this mine must be massive! holy!
Nice Video ! Please stay Safe
This man is awesome 😎 good mind cowboy 🤠
22:15 in the moment i thought-never run when you are on a construction area....he runs and...plums hahaha !
Another good mine
Well done Frank great explore, you seem to have all the right kit now too, a friend of mine whos a virgin mine explorer was so interested hes persuaded me to take him underground tomoz , i did not need a lot of persuading, cheers.
Have fun!
Very cool video. My father and grandfather worked there. We spent many hours exploring the area when I was a kid.
It is a beautiful area to visit.
The water there is so clear and it shimmers against the rock.
mind blowing . thanks for risking your life for this film
For me the risk was minimal.
Perfect music
22:40 lol nice job leaving that in
Why not.....if you can't laugh at yourself
I’ve watched a few tv shows on abandoned mines and they are no where near yours you need. Your own tv show the videos are amazing and you guys are savage lol please keep safe and keep living life to the full god bless
Nobody is watching TV these days they are all on their phones!
@@exploringabandonedmines so true stick with RUclips your videos are amazing 👍
This explore was very interesting! A lot of stuff left behind, but then it was a newer one. First time I've EVER seen you fall and hopefully the LAST! Older and wiser, slow and steady! 😉
In a couple of weeks you can watch me fall on ice!
@@exploringabandonedmines Hopefully you're not hurt! 😉 Be safe out there!
thanks
be careful mister! i would love to see more video's of you exploring things (just subscribed)
No problems I am planning on being around for a while! Welcome to the channel!
russell here i relay enjoy your Chanel i find it very interesting i would like to thank you for your time and efert making these shows i hope you can keep them coming be safe and i will look forward to more episodes thank you Russell
Thanks for watching and your comments Russell!
This mine is a ridiculously good example of sublevel open stoping...I've never seen a stope that runs that deep continuously.
Its a big mine but the stope probably runs down about 800 feet from the surface at the deepest part. Pretty impressive! Below that there are stopes and crosscut levels going down thousands more feet
Great vid Frank :)
Thanks!
Truly enjoyed the exploration, I gotta say you must be very skilled with ropes if I do say so myself...
o oo o O R R: get in there, have some fun and learn whilst you do so !
Stay safe whatever route you take.
Good plan!
Amazing video! Too dangerous for me, though.
We used to have to cross the border and go to Metaline Falls and pick up a road there and take it into the tent camp then there was a cat road to the portal. The miners used to go in an old jeez station wagon. I spent days walking that old road with a single shot 22.
love you channel
Thanks for watching and your comments!
Love the videos..for the longest time I couldn't figure out who you looked like. Then it hit me....you remind me of Alex debagorski from ice road truckers.
I have heard that before.
Just got 2 the End of the Video and I've got to Say that Is 1 Of Your Best...literally should Be On National Geo...Thanks Again Frank
I think so too. Mind you I trimmed a lot of footage that I could have made another show out of......I am glad you enjoyed it!
"and all the rest, they just burnt it and bulldozed it"... mankind at its 'best' - being needlessly destructive.
1000 ft awesome ! Frank so kool to see these mines and your thoughts crack me up ! Maybe you could apply for grants like a pbs shows do , this is great mining history esp for your area ! Tv shows would probably ruin your vision ! Like they do with everything else !! Love your passion you have for this !
I haven't had any luck getting community TV stations interested in our content.
Well that’s sucks A! I find you so entertaining man ! And how did you get the boat back in the water ????
Hello Thanks for your great films , you are very brave because I cant help thinking one false move and you could fall into a deep flooded shaft and never be seen again. I also think about your poor dog and the terrible thing that happened to him.. Personally I would never have taken a dog into such dangerous places ..
