No matter what people say about these guys being unsafe, not having the right boots/masks, walking on the roof ... their videos are some of the best content on RUclips.
I know this is two years old now but I just watched this video for the first time. I want to point out to you guys one of the most dangerous things you did in this video. I'm not talking about the sketchy stairs, ladders or holes. I'm telling you NEVER trust the roof, especially on an abandoned building. They commonly have a rubber or tarred membrane surface applied over corrugated sheet metal. The sheet metal can be rotted away under what looks like a solid roof. Even if it is concrete slabs sections under the water tight material, they also can crumble or be compromised. Those roofs are incredibly dangerous. You could fall through so fast. Be very careful and avoid walking on them if possible.
These guys are basically teenagers so you're wasting your time. They wear fng sneakers instead of boots while exploring hazardous areas and complain about why places smell. lol. It smells terrible but let's not leave because of it.
@@_DrDrakeRamoray They do not have the correct clothing or gear. Those bad smells, were hazardous fumes that damaged their bodies, lol. Ignorance is bliss!
Idk about everyone else but exploring in the winter is so much better because all the vegetation is dead and adds such an dead/apocalyptic feel. Awesome location
It's really sad that there aren't a lot of channels like this that don't consist of explores who are really loud, obnoxious, disrespectful and have really clickbait titles. (also, buy steel toe cap boots, they're life savers.)
Why use respirators? Protect against: Dust fine dust molds spores bacteria viruses asbestos (They loved using asbestos back in the day) fiber glass chemicals varies gasses etc, etc,etc
Just a heads up to you guys... be careful for rusted out stairs/ladders. To avoid breaking through rusted out rungs, step as close as you can to the wall of the ladder, as far from the middle as possible, where you have the least leverage to break both the rungs and the welds.
@@wf6951 yeah I'm waiting for them to get jammed up bad one day! I hope it doesn't happen but the way they don't seem to learn it may be inevitable. Keep your fingers crossed 😘
I think there tag line should be "they know just enough to be dangerous to themselves" hope they don't get hurt real bad one day! There's another explorer I was following that just stopped putting video up on YT I don't know if he got arrested, fell off a bridge, trapped in a tunnel or got shot by a gang banger while sneaking into abandoned NYC tunnels, he just fell off the face of the Earth!
Thank you for showing us a very interesting place, and also showing that young people can be doing this kind of thing without laughing, screaming and being idiots. Thanks, keep up the good work!
I’ve been here before! This is in Tennessee. Me and a couple friends explored recently, the basement area is way more flooded now but not by as much as I’d expect for 2 years. It smells awful. And it’s creepy at night 😂. The big area with the fans in the ceiling (I can’t think of what it’s actually called) is terrifying at night because it’s completely pitch black, we also heard a noise in there and that when we left. I’m also sad we didn’t get to see it like this. It’s much more vandalized now and some of the areas you went into we couldn’t get into because people had piled stuff on door ways.
The s* stench was likely decomposed feed that remained in the building. I worked on a much smaller feed facility that was converted into a commercial building. Even after being thoroughly cleaned, the stench would return to areas that had no airflow, as if the smell was absorbed by the structure.
Not to mention the addition of bat guano, which stinks, and is also not good for the lungs... As well as the fact that older buildings have asbestos, and other molds and mildews that are possibly as harmful!!! Please, please, please get some proper breathing equipment!!! We would like to continue seeing your videos, so stay healthy and safe while exploring!!!
twogreatguitars I'd recommend they use a Four-head personal monitor which monitors methane, oxygen, H2S, and carbon monoxide. Would be pretty great to have in some locations that lack proper ventilation and may contain H2S
21:09 This is the most beautiful abandoned place I've seen so far. It looks like the spots where light shines through are stars and the echo is amazing
This is definitely my favorite of your urbex videos. :-D Here's some general information about this old beaut. The factory "is" or rather was called the Central Soya Plant. It opened in 1955 and is located in Chattanooga. They started to demolish it in November 2019 and I don't really know how much of it that is still standing today. About 5,000 yards of concrete were used to construct the 38 silos that were each 110 feet high. These could store 2½ million bushels and were arranged in a U shape. The plant closed in 1991. Thank you kindly for this video, guys!
I used to explore this plant when I was in high school! Now I work with someone who worked there when it was operational in the 70's and could tell me what all the weird equipment was.
@@cherenkovsradiation4990 This plant made vegetable oil and animal feeds from soybeans. There also used to be a co-located hydrogenation plant that was torn down before this video was filmed.
It's a running thing on this channel. What especially irks me is when they just casually touch surfaces and object in abandoned hospitals without any gloves. Not wearing even the simplest respirator. Also, no head protection in badly deteriorating buildings. In some other video he said "well, part of ceiling just collapsed before I've clicked record" or something of sort. And they just proceed without even a hat, nevermind a helmet of sort.
Watching this video gave me so much anxiety because of the stairs, the flooded basement, the holes on the floors, the flooded roof top that could have caved in, that random gear on the stairs, the obvious erosion of everything in that building. Please be safe ya'll.
I want to thank you for this video. Growing up, we had a very similar grain silo on the edge of town. I was obsessed with it as a kid. Still am, I've been back to photograph it a few times. But this- getting in there and giving us the tour, you do not know how grateful I am. Thank you.

Finally a video with a theme song that seems pretty fitting and isn't overly corny or annoying. About the right length of an intro too. Good job! Excellent production on that, whoever made those decisions needs a pat on the back.
I like your videos. But, you need to be more careful using those old stairs. They could give away at any moment. Be more careful so you can do more great videos in the future.
This reminds me of an adventure I had about 25 years ago. We explored the abandoned grain silos along the canal in Buffalo, NY. The only access to the roof was an exterior iron stair, much like the one in your trip. Someone long ago had chucked an enormous steel beam from the roof and it wiped out one entire flight of stairs maybe 6 or 8 stories up. I remember scrambling up the ironwork from landing-to-landing to get to the top. And you're right about those holes everywhere... they're literally everywhere and incredibly deep. Be safe!
check out "gazometer" Techno Parties :) It's nutz. They happened back then in an huge Gas-silo. The Sound was just sick - ruclips.net/video/3M224s7SJL0/видео.html
Calling this place a deathtrap is an understatement. You're lucky one of you didn't fall to your death. Even when operational this place would have been fined millions for all these safety violations.
ice44567 it's 17 years abandoned... it's not a death trap I've been places much worse. places like this aren't being held together by a thread it's a lot more structurally sound than people think
it would have been a death trap even when it was in operation. A single spark from the equipment if not grounded right would have blown the place up with all the dust that would have been in the air. Fertilizer is just as if not more dangerous and the fertilizer plant explosion incident in Texas back in 2011 /2012 is one hell of an example.
I don't know why and I am pretty certain that I will never have to use it, but when you went down into that flooded basement I thought that this would be a great place to get rid of a body, no one would ever go into that water.
I would think poop would stop smelling bad long before 16 years had passed. My guess is that it's the food that they were processing, completely decayed.
The Proper People checklist: Christmas decorations, a posed scene, mould, intact glass, records/documents, evidence of previous explorers (a visitor list, graffiti, etc.), a live animal of some kind, and old food.
It always surprises me the length and trouble, and the effort it must take to get into a place like this, just to tag it with spray paint! I mean, WHO DOES THAT?!! Thanks for another interesting video, Proper People!!

MetaKnight964 At least she gets laid, and has enough slickness to get a guy. I doubt many guys are willing to get with Ann Coulter. She's nasty to everyone, about everything.
looks like that was an old Daniels Midland plant. 4:48 those file sorters have names of city's with Daniels Midland plants in them. I've been to Decatur Illinois enough times to know how rank soybean processing smells. You can smell that plant for miles.
I cannot believe you did that at 20:40, it's obviously a hole under. The most dangerous thing I've seen on your videos. I watched that part terrified. Anyway, since is the first time I write you, I want to say your explorations are breathtaking and amazing, I love your videos and I envy you :D
20:41 This is like the most comforting sound I've ever heard. It's like you're hearing your moms heartbeat from inside the womb.. or some alien language.
Y’all should get a 4 gas monitor. Fire departments use them. Great for Co2, O2, and H2S. It also calculates explosive gasses. All stuff to be concerned about.
The "elevator" is called a Beltman Lift. They are mainly used in tall production facilities (such as this with the tall grain elevator type storages) but mainly in mines. And that level of stair case that is blocked was probably and more than likely no longer being used as the new ladder you passed by was the means to get to that level.
Man! OK!, that black water was freak-y! I would not like to see either of you (anyone!) fall in there. I would absolutely lose it. Something about flooded lower levels/basements that just scares me beyond reason. You guys have a beautiful friendship ... I love how Michael looks after you, Bryan. and I'm positive that goes both ways. Anyway, it's just nice to see. *EXCELLENT* Video, but you really worried me in this one. darn!
The Proper People me and my friend (who i think might have have recommended this factory) went there in the early morning last week and it was really easy in/out
Holy Tetanus! Cool video - the way the sound travels captures the magnitude of the spaces you're in. Sounds like you're in a deep canyon. You guys put out some amazing material!!!

@@realname3538 I think my favourite part of being a European is not dying of preventable diseases due to expensive as fuck health insurance vs eating and having a home.
@@JimmyCrawford The United States offers better healthcare quality than any other country in the world. If you have cancer your mortality rate is lower if you are treated in the United States, you have double the risk of dying of cancer in countries with single-payer health insurance. You are 4 times more likely to die in a #1 rated UK hospital than you are in the United States, and If you have a terminal illness it can go all the way up to 7 times more likely to die. The United States is #1 in the world of creating new lifesaving drugs and publications of medical research papers.
You guys should come to Royersford, PA. There is an abandoned Whiskey Distillery. Linfield Industrial Park spans 196 acres in Limerick, about 35 miles north-west of Philadelphia. For over 100 years, this land was home to various companies, most notably Kinseys Distillery. It has stood vacant since 1986. Though there are cameras and security that go there too. I went there once and was lucky enough to not get caught.
Reminds me a lot of Half-Life 2. Searching through all those abandoned buildings, crawling through ventilation shafts, seeing brief glimpses of G-man in the corner of your eye..
That1Dewd what? That makes no sense. If you're attempting to make a sexist joke, you suck at it. And just because I was anxious doesn't mean I didn't like it.
moto lyfe was thinking the same thing. I’m pretty sure these building were here before call of duty. And whoever built these building was t copying call of duty. Just a dumb statement 😂😂. How old are you?
Randoms fandoms 19. Old enough to not be scared to drop my age. You gotta be pretty young to see some abandoned building and think of call of duty. Go anything else to say? You seem worked up 😁
The Conical things were Cone Silos. The Lab would have been quality control. The "Control room" would have been for Processing Machinery (Long since removed) to combine/mix ingredients, or possibly to remotely select or communicate which silos ended up with what train loads of whatever they were dealing with. The webs were a result of Shit (Nutrient rich) water breeding tons of bugs there by feeding tons of spiders. The Staircase "modifications" were I would wager the result of later retrofitting made as the silo building was re-purposed. The broken Pipes, though many the result of numerous vandals over the years, combined with the obvious impromptu ramshackle retrofits would lead me to suspect that the most recent operators of the building were more focused on production then absolutely anything else, which would be why there was spilled ingredient (Presumably), all over. Silos are rarely exactly "Air tight" constructions anyway and are generally known for "leakage" to some degree or another even as designed. Once you start punching holes in them to accommodate change, or deferring maintenance, this only gets worse. Imagine a concert in that big empty area.... alas the insurance alone would destroy any possibility of an audience. That said I had no idea the centers of big silo complex's like that could be not full of more Silos.... So thank you for exploring that place! -Raevenon
I love exploring abandoned structures. Though I would not go in factories without steel toed shoes/boots with the plate along the inside of the sole, respirator, puncture-proof gloves, protective eye wear, hard hat. Just because there is so much in abandoned buildings, especially factorues, that can make you sick and hurt you.
My anxiety level intensified the longer I watched this. This was some hella reckless exploration and I'm glad ya'll didn't get caught in that death trap cuz holy hell. I woulda noped the F outta there before any footage would've even started. 😲🤦🏻♂️
Some of the coolest echoes I've ever personally discovered were inside the pulping vat of an abandoned paper mill in northern Massachusetts. I crawled in through an open maintenance hatch at the bottom. The echoes seemed to go on forever because they had nowhere else to go. Weird.
The worst danger I imagine when exploring abandoned places like this would be people. I suppose if this place smells so bad then that danger is diminished. Still, you'd have to be very cautious.
I just explored this giant old meat packing factory, I'm always scared of getting caught. Any tips to ease my mind or to not get caught? Loved this video btw!
Indeed, Sir. It's for a head pulley on a leg, which begs the question, how did it get to that point on the stairs? We used cranes from the ground for the outdoor legs, and we had a pneumatic winch for the internal leg motors, reducers, and sprockets ect. They're kind of heavy for manhandling.
@@bot_scarecrow8674 Does anyone know if it is monitored as of recent? I am planning to go with a friend or two with solid gear but we don't want to drive for hours just to be turned around. All information is useful. Such as do cops observe the area, are there security cams, etc? It doesn't seem like it due to the amount of graffiti. Also wondering the best place and time to park if it is swarmed.
This is just the average antiquated grain processing facility. Once they become too antiquated it is cheaper to let them rot than to try to update them. The rotting grain has an unmistakable smell which is compounded by the fact that when they shut off the electricity the bilge pumps in the pits (or basements) were no longer running which caused them to flood. Grain silos / bins are typically emptied from the bottom hence why they have the pits in the first place (mechanical equipment). The cob webs are so large because the grain dust collects on them making them appear larger.
No matter what people say about these guys being unsafe, not having the right boots/masks, walking on the roof ... their videos are some of the best content on RUclips.

I know this is two years old now but I just watched this video for the first time. I want to point out to you guys one of the most dangerous things you did in this video. I'm not talking about the sketchy stairs, ladders or holes. I'm telling you NEVER trust the roof, especially on an abandoned building. They commonly have a rubber or tarred membrane surface applied over corrugated sheet metal. The sheet metal can be rotted away under what looks like a solid roof. Even if it is concrete slabs sections under the water tight material, they also can crumble or be compromised. Those roofs are incredibly dangerous. You could fall through so fast. Be very careful and avoid walking on them if possible.
I was thinking the same thing, they where prob like 100 feet or more above a concrete slab.
Benserink E if the building is 15 stories, then that’s at least 150 feet

I like your videos. But, you need to be more careful using those old stairs. They could give away at any moment. Be more careful so you can do more great videos in the future.
CrossfireAmbush newer stairs wood stairs would fall 10x easier than metal
"Someone actually thought they'd find money in there?" Yea...meth is fun
I love watching about old abandoned factories and chemical plants, the architecture and graffiti is fascinating.
This reminds me of an adventure I had about 25 years ago. We explored the abandoned grain silos along the canal in Buffalo, NY. The only access to the roof was an exterior iron stair, much like the one in your trip.
Someone long ago had chucked an enormous steel beam from the roof and it wiped out one entire flight of stairs maybe 6 or 8 stories up. I remember scrambling up the ironwork from landing-to-landing to get to the top. And you're right about those holes everywhere... they're literally everywhere and incredibly deep. Be safe!
You could have a sick party in that stadium thingy.
Fuck yeah I thought the same ✌🤟🤙
Something would be better than nothing!
El Duderino haha pretty sure people did have parties in those silos. Found some bottle rockets in there too
Marco polo would be super fun...
check out "gazometer" Techno Parties :) It's nutz. They happened back then in an huge Gas-silo. The Sound was just sick - ruclips.net/video/3M224s7SJL0/видео.html
What a depressing energy coming off that structure. I'm glad it's over >< Thanks
But it's history so still cool to see
Calling this place a deathtrap is an understatement. You're lucky one of you didn't fall to your death. Even when operational this place would have been fined millions for all these safety violations.
ice44567 it's 17 years abandoned... it's not a death trap I've been places much worse. places like this aren't being held together by a thread it's a lot more structurally sound than people think
it would have been a death trap even when it was in operation. A single spark from the equipment if not grounded right would have blown the place up with all the dust that would have been in the air. Fertilizer is just as if not more dangerous and the fertilizer plant explosion incident in Texas back in 2011 /2012 is one hell of an example.
onrr1726 but this factory seems to be an old cattle feed factory. There is alot of dust but idk where you got the fertilizer part from.
Why it’s concrete and metal floors if wood I don’t know
This place is like 10 minutes from my house, I go at night, it's not that bad
I don't know why and I am pretty certain that I will never have to use it, but when you went down into that flooded basement I thought that this would be a great place to get rid of a body, no one would ever go into that water.
Hanna Pffr thats what i thought :D
And I live kinda close to it too
Maybe thats why it smell like that........
I used to work at that plant, or drive a truck based out of there. This is gone now, it was finally all dismantled.
I would think poop would stop smelling bad long before 16 years had passed. My guess is that it's the food that they were processing, completely decayed.
This place is being demolished, but I'm so glad that this footage exists.... so that it can haunt my nightmares for all time!
The Proper People checklist: Christmas decorations, a posed scene, mould, intact glass, records/documents, evidence of previous explorers (a visitor list, graffiti, etc.), a live animal of some kind, and old food.
Amazing! Thanks for taking us along. I could never Handel the high places
It always surprises me the length and trouble, and the effort it must take to get into a place like this, just to tag it with spray paint! I mean, WHO DOES THAT?!! Thanks for another interesting video, Proper People!!
Wasn't expecting the personal shout-out @ 8:44 . Thanks y'all!!😹😹😹😻😻😻
Cool vid guys. That place had lots of dangerous open holes and other places to fall into. Watching you both walk around in there was a nail biter.
I just love your intro, I know it sounds crazy but I really feel like I am watching a T.V. show. Keep up the awesome work guys!
I’m guessing the “cow manure”
might of been rotting grain it smells real bad
Might HAVE (might've) been.
Just as likely offal, and yes it is as bad as that word makes it out to be.
@@wintersbattleofbands1144 Congrats.
The elevator is actually a belt manlift.
so its actually a elevator
*an
This guy..its not "an" belt manlift..worlds fulla selfrighteous r-tards nowdayz
Oh what dont wanna play now because ya realize ya sound like an idiot? Lol people like you I tell ya
Matt Jenkins I was merely sleeping. And I am sorry. I did not mean to disturb an actual mental patient.
ive personally been here at night and it is a much different/scarier experience
where is it?
Shadow Gamer21 where is it at then huh??
moto lyfe LoL you are a joke. Nobody gives a shit to prove anything to you. Like it matters if he told you where it was or not. You don’t got to believe him 😂😂
Did you wear equipment? If you ever catch someone there you should tell them to ware masks and gloves.
Why don't you guys get some Decent Equipment???? Military issue combat boots, knee pads and leather palm work gloves at the bare minimum.
This video was made 2 years ago. Since then, they have gotten better equipment.
Only pussies wear that shit
Leather gloves absorb everything your skin will absorbe. They need nitrile coated gloves
They never listen
@Noel V 🤣🤣
I went into an old Armour Meat Packing plant and that was the worst smell I have ever encountered. I smelled it through my car vents from a mile away.
Tony Stark That smell was actually Hillary Clinton's vagina.
More like Ann Coulter's.
So you're saying it smelled worse than Dell Bell?
Clinton is the filthy one.
MetaKnight964
At least she gets laid, and has enough slickness to get a guy. I doubt many guys are willing to get with Ann Coulter. She's nasty to everyone, about everything.
looks like that was an old Daniels Midland plant. 4:48 those file sorters have names of city's with Daniels Midland plants in them. I've been to Decatur Illinois enough times to know how rank soybean processing smells. You can smell that plant for miles.
I cannot believe you did that at 20:40, it's obviously a hole under. The most dangerous thing I've seen on your videos. I watched that part terrified.
Anyway, since is the first time I write you, I want to say your explorations are breathtaking and amazing, I love your videos and I envy you :D
20:41 This is like the most comforting sound I've ever heard.
It's like you're hearing your moms heartbeat from inside the womb.. or some alien language.
Amg I could seriously listen to that sound forever
Sampled
You should listen some dutch music, called Hardcore ;)
The stuff you are calling manure is most likely rotting soybeans
Jarrett Gripp keep in mind the place has been closed since 2001.
it could be rotting pig feed that had preservatives in it. Anything is possible though.
SOYBOY.
Y’all should get a 4 gas monitor. Fire departments use them. Great for Co2, O2, and H2S. It also calculates explosive gasses. All stuff to be concerned about.
Only in urbex do you hear "There's a gear in the way."
it's a sprocket!!
The "elevator" is called a Beltman Lift. They are mainly used in tall production facilities (such as this with the tall grain elevator type storages) but mainly in mines.
And that level of stair case that is blocked was probably and more than likely no longer being used as the new ladder you passed by was the means to get to that level.
That safe door houses a document vault - it's used in case of a fire etc.
Man! OK!, that black water was freak-y! I would not like to see either of you (anyone!) fall in there. I would absolutely lose it. Something about flooded lower levels/basements that just scares me beyond reason.
You guys have a beautiful friendship ... I love how Michael looks after you, Bryan.
and I'm positive that goes both ways.
Anyway, it's just nice to see.
*EXCELLENT* Video, but you really worried me in this one. darn!
I can't imagine the bacteria that must be in the air from the swine feces.
That was rotted grain, but that’s still not good at all I’m assuming
God you boys are brave walking round these places,I don’t like heights so couldn’t do it..that looks real high too!
Hope you guys explored that abandoned Tiki Playboy mansion while you were in the area...
It has security cameras now and a bunch of people have been arrested there
The Proper People me and my friend (who i think might have have recommended this factory) went there in the early morning last week and it was really easy in/out
kb94596 In Tennessee?
Holy Tetanus! Cool video - the way the sound travels captures the magnitude of the spaces you're in. Sounds like you're in a deep canyon. You guys put out some amazing material!!!
Have you ever explored a building with active alarms ?? Some abandoned buildings still have the alarms active.
The heights make me anxious. I'm so stressed out but intrigued now.
Amazing place, fertilizer plant, those conical round building would be the best place for a rave, can you just image the sound.
Id like to give a BIG shout out to "Katlyn Rutledge Nov 10 2016"
...i would go there just to go to those echo-dome-stadium-things and sing faded XD

> Minimum of 3000 euros in camera equipment
> not wearing a gas mask for like 50 euros
> not wearing gloves for like 10€
I don‘t get it but hey still fun to watch.
Send them equipment. You know, for equalities sake.
You can seize the means of production, no problem.
Imagine being a European
@@realname3538 I think my favourite part of being a European is not dying of preventable diseases due to expensive as fuck health insurance vs eating and having a home.
@@JimmyCrawford The United States offers better healthcare quality than any other country in the world. If you have cancer your mortality rate is lower if you are treated in the United States, you have double the risk of dying of cancer in countries with single-payer health insurance. You are 4 times more likely to die in a #1 rated UK hospital than you are in the United States, and If you have a terminal illness it can go all the way up to 7 times more likely to die. The United States is #1 in the world of creating new lifesaving drugs and publications of medical research papers.
@@realname3538 As long as you can afford the treatment, yes. I'd imagine if you can't you die at home and don't even make it into the statistics.
You guys should come to Royersford, PA. There is an abandoned Whiskey Distillery. Linfield Industrial Park spans 196 acres in Limerick, about 35 miles north-west of Philadelphia. For over 100 years, this land was home to various companies, most notably Kinseys Distillery. It has stood vacant since 1986. Though there are cameras and security that go there too. I went there once and was lucky enough to not get caught.
Reminds me a lot of Half-Life 2. Searching through all those abandoned buildings, crawling through ventilation shafts, seeing brief glimpses of G-man in the corner of your eye..
This whole video makes me anxious
Green Hellion You should change your tampon then.
That1Dewd what? That makes no sense. If you're attempting to make a sexist joke, you suck at it. And just because I was anxious doesn't mean I didn't like it.
Green Hellion It really sounds like you should change your tampon madam. #TrollNuggets
That1Dewd What does that even mean? Literally makes 0 sense whatsoever
@That1Dewd: And you should pull your butt plug.
All these places look like they were designed from call of duty.
newest bear or you know maybe call of duty got it from these places cool
moto lyfe was thinking the same thing. I’m pretty sure these building were here before call of duty. And whoever built these building was t copying call of duty. Just a dumb statement 😂😂. How old are you?
newest bear or for a movie set
Geo Vani he said “look like” meaning that they LOOK LIKE they were designed from call of duty. How old are YOU.
Randoms fandoms 19. Old enough to not be scared to drop my age. You gotta be pretty young to see some abandoned building and think of call of duty. Go anything else to say? You seem worked up 😁
The Conical things were Cone Silos. The Lab would have been quality control. The "Control room" would have been for Processing Machinery (Long since removed) to combine/mix ingredients, or possibly to remotely select or communicate which silos ended up with what train loads of whatever they were dealing with. The webs were a result of Shit (Nutrient rich) water breeding tons of bugs there by feeding tons of spiders. The Staircase "modifications" were I would wager the result of later retrofitting made as the silo building was re-purposed.
The broken Pipes, though many the result of numerous vandals over the years, combined with the obvious impromptu ramshackle retrofits would lead me to suspect that the most recent operators of the building were more focused on production then absolutely anything else, which would be why there was spilled ingredient (Presumably), all over. Silos are rarely exactly "Air tight" constructions anyway and are generally known for "leakage" to some degree or another even as designed. Once you start punching holes in them to accommodate change, or deferring maintenance, this only gets worse.
Imagine a concert in that big empty area.... alas the insurance alone would destroy any possibility of an audience. That said I had no idea the centers of big silo complex's like that could be not full of more Silos.... So thank you for exploring that place!
-Raevenon
The center of those silos is one huge grain bin... notice the two large fill spouts hanging down over the center
can you imagine dismattling a place like that how long it would take
lmao just blow it up...
be a cool job in my next career set i would like to be a dismantling
@@lindabingham394 wrecking ball at the ready a bit like a bale off or burnout challenge
I love exploring abandoned structures. Though I would not go in factories without steel toed shoes/boots with the plate along the inside of the sole, respirator, puncture-proof gloves, protective eye wear, hard hat. Just because there is so much in abandoned buildings, especially factorues, that can make you sick and hurt you.
Now I’m not a murderer or anything but when they said how bad it smelled my first thought was “it would be the perfect place to hide a body”
My anxiety level intensified the longer I watched this. This was some hella reckless exploration and I'm glad ya'll didn't get caught in that death trap cuz holy hell. I woulda noped the F outta there before any footage would've even started. 😲🤦🏻♂️
Some of the coolest echoes I've ever personally discovered were inside the pulping vat of an abandoned paper mill in northern Massachusetts. I crawled in through an open maintenance hatch at the bottom. The echoes seemed to go on forever because they had nowhere else to go. Weird.
Being an explorer means having no boundaries. Those metal steps outside would be a boundary.
The opening credits straight up remind me of an older MTV show, like True Life or something. That's meant as a compliment btw lol.
This is the first of your videos that made my palms sweaty 😅😅😅😅 stay safe please!!!
The worst danger I imagine when exploring abandoned places like this would be people. I suppose if this place smells so bad then that danger is diminished. Still, you'd have to be very cautious.
I just explored this giant old meat packing factory, I'm always scared of getting caught. Any tips to ease my mind or to not get caught? Loved this video btw!
I've seen plenty of channels that do this, just found this one thanks to recommended. Love these guys they explore the coolest places.
That wasn't a gear on the stairs, it was a sprocket.
Indeed, Sir. It's for a head pulley on a leg, which begs the question, how did it get to that point on the stairs? We used cranes from the ground for the outdoor legs, and we had a pneumatic winch for the internal leg motors, reducers, and sprockets ect. They're kind of heavy for manhandling.
No, that was a gear
This is in Chattanooga TN.
where abouts exactly ? trying to find it on google earth
nic Amnicola Hwy behind the Pepsi plant.
@@billcockylock1843 cool found it , thank you for answering :)
I’ve been there my dude. I saw the gear when I went there too. Honestly one of the coolest places I’ve been in
@@bot_scarecrow8674 Does anyone know if it is monitored as of recent? I am planning to go with a friend or two with solid gear but we don't want to drive for hours just to be turned around. All information is useful. Such as do cops observe the area, are there security cams, etc? It doesn't seem like it due to the amount of graffiti. Also wondering the best place and time to park if it is swarmed.
This is just the average antiquated grain processing facility. Once they become too antiquated it is cheaper to let them rot than to try to update them. The rotting grain has an unmistakable smell which is compounded by the fact that when they shut off the electricity the bilge pumps in the pits (or basements) were no longer running which caused them to flood. Grain silos / bins are typically emptied from the bottom hence why they have the pits in the first place (mechanical equipment). The cob webs are so large because the grain dust collects on them making them appear larger.
just them walking around in sketchy places makes me nervous
