@@hikingwithjackieboy Thanks Kevin, great insight on many levels here from the movie filmed here to the daily life all those men had here in prison. Thanks for stopping by..
You did a wonderful job filming and taking us around. That place must have been horrible to be in but it was prison. Thank you for sharing this saw that movie twice. 👍😊
@@missbabbett9086 Thank you so much.. it was kind of surreal being there knowing everything that went on in that place and thinking about it.. and seeing where the movie was filmed. I watched the movie again that evening just to compare what I saw that day.. Thanks for your comment..
That cell @6:00 was not for inmates. That was the range control room that the guard used to open and close all the doors at the same time. It used a hand crank mechanism that you can see to the right side by the door. Also there was a 110 volt wall outlet in that room, there were no wall outlets in the inmate cells. Don't ask how I know these things.
I appreciate the comment and it does make sense.. seeing the gate before the rest of the inmate cells also gives you an idea that that cell was used for a control room of sorts.. I was trying to take it all in and shoot the video to really realize what I was seeing. Never have been in a prison before either so it was an experience seeing everything and the history here..
@@AdventureAwaits83 Yep I spent a year there as a (guest), shall we say, by the State of Ohio. 1985 to 1986. Then I was sent to Lebanon, then to Chllicothe, then to Ross correctional. Each time they moved you it was to better place as you got closer to you release date. That's if you just did your time, minded your business and stayed out of trouble within the system. But Mansfield was the initial armpit place to go. And it wasn't much better back then than it is now. The paint wasn't all peeled off however.
@@GEFanuc21t Well I'm glad you made it through the system and were released! I'm sure with a lot of stories... Appreciate the comments and insight to this place..
Wow, pretty cool. It reminds me of an old prison in Boston that they fixed up and turned into a restaurant and a little hotel. I made a video about it a while back, but it was kind of the same thing.
Cool Thanks.
@@davidkimmel5153 Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very cool, I’m gonna have to watch some of it so I can see the difference between the way it looked then and now.
@@TheVineyardFarmhouse Yes, rewatch the movie, I did to see what it looked like back then.. Very interesting place for sure..
Very interesting tour. Thank you, Chris, for taking us along.

@@desert-walker That sounds cool, what is the title of your video so I could look it?
