A renewal of the greatest rivalry in the history of mankind... The Carpetbagger vs. Compressed Air.....
😂😂😂😂
As someone who was a scare actor for years, I have to say you were my favorite kind of victim. Screaming and laughing at the same time. Much love my friend.
I loveeee scare actors! Thanks for the frights keeps me young
@@ohmigoshness1 you are very welcome. It was the most fun I ever had on a job and I loved hearing the screams. Made me feel like they were getting their money's worth.
And his laugh is so adorable and catchy too 😍
I acted at Waverly Hills Sanitorium. Have you heard of it?
@@denisedarnell1641 Right?😂😂😂
On a very hard day for my family where we awoke to some very shocking sad news, your video is exactly what I need to remember to smile and see that life does go on , even when my heart is broken in a million pieces 💔 .
Thank you for being such a HAPPY GO LUCKY DUDE who absolutely pushes past the hard parts of life and allows all of us to giggle or laugh out loud with your antics. Things that go bump in the night dont scare you as much as compressed air blowing your way. I DONT BLAME YOU ❤❤😊
Praying for you and yours.
That haunted attraction was cool. We need more interactive type experiences like that with no actors. Just places to wander around and look at creepy stuff.
What are you talking about? That attraction had actors!
The FBI agent played multiple roles...
“OHHHH HE WAS PLAYING GOLF” I love the commentary when Jacob gets scared 😂
One thing I like about carpetbagger is that he doesn't complain. Regardless of the attraction, he finds joy and enjoys the experience. Bc experience is what it's about. The attraction could be mediocre, lame, or awesome and yet he's still gonna enjoy it and get what it gives. It's refreshing to not hear a complainer lol
The old Haunted Adventure involved a coffin making company called Grimsby and Streaper, cleverly hiding within the title "Grim Reaper." There was a large creepy elevator that would take you to the top. The whole experience was much darker and a victorian era horror affair that delt with a Jack the Ripper-esque serial killer. Lots of automated scares, and one scare actor that would play multiple roles throughout the house.
An unexpectedly early haunt attraction? Awesome!
The use of buttons in the Haunted Adventure is super cool! Reduces the jump scare factor a little bit (you know *something* is going to happen), but it still gets some spooks since you're basically making the audience participate in their own scares. I'd love to see it used at other places.
I'm glad you're having fun in Myrtle Beach ❤
I'm so glad you got on the Ferris wheel, it was a beautiful ride!
Congrats on that hole in one!! ❤ MB
Glad you got to finally ride a big ferris wheel Jacob. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your the best Jacob!! Keep up the good work!! Thanks for taking a picture with me and my little brother after finishing the video!!😊😊
Thanks Jacob for your eternal dedication to showing us those scary dark rides and haunted houses! Loved those places when I was a kid, but now that I'm old all I have to do is watch the news to get scared.
"OOOHH He was playing golf!" I love the commentary whenever Jacob gets scared. Can't wait for Haunt Season. 😂
I love how clear & crisp the picture is in your videos.
Makes me feel like I'm visiting with you!
The original gay dolphin video is what made me fall in love with this channel all those years ago.
The Gay Dolphin was a family vacation staple and a fond memory of mine. I believe in the 90s, the open center part with the hanging string lights had either oil (or water?) dripping down long wires/string. That place really is unique. I’m glad it’s still around
Those grab bags from the Gay Dolphin basement were a favorite childhood souvenir! I wish I could step back in time to the Myrtle Beach of my 80s childhood!
I do remember when the whole section was the haunted adventure attraction. They used to have an employee stand outside and say things to people walking by trying to get them to do it. I remember this because I had one of them yell out at me one time “you should be out here working instead of me, you have on more makeup than I do.” Fun times 😂
I feel the same way about the World’s Fairs. I read books and watch every video I can about them, especially Chicago in 1893. Great video!
Stories of the Chicago World’s Fair are fascinating!
This was great! I was laughing while you were yelling! Your face was classic when you had to give the code! 😂
That's in the top 10 Jacob. It's a great video. Take care, my friend, and as always, safe travels .
The older version of ripleys HA had a very cool clown room and it was alot longer from what i remember and you would enter an elevator
You are so funny when you try to dance. You have the same moves every time. Lol
Giant observation wheels like High Roller are designed for multiple parties, so even a solo person would end up with 1-2 other larger parties
I went during the pandemic and it was very slow, they told me for safety reasons I couldn’t ride in my own car and I had to ride with another party
I remember going there when it was the three story haunted house. You'd see people running on a balcony screaming; it was hilarious. Lol. It was definitely a lot scarier. I loved it. ❤❤I'm so happy to see you doing an early haunt!!!
That's probably one most interesting mini golf ⛳ that ive seen in a while
Ahh ,the gay dolphin, parents bought me many rubber shark toys there back in the 80s
That noise at the beginning of The Haunted adventure scared my cat.L o l
Wow. this ripley's haunted thing is awesome,!!!!
So glad you got on that ferris wheel! I was looking forward to watching that! Thanks!
I my travel Buddy!! 😊 Physicaly you are alone yes, but virtually we are almost 500 000 in the passenger seat!! I appriciate you very much Jacob and Jen too!!😄 Thankyou for another great adventure with you!!!❤🫂👍 from Quebec 🇲🇶🇨🇦
Awesome Ferris Wheel the Ripley’s Haunted Adventure was great.
Not sure if it’s been said but I think you survived because technically you’re not on vacation. Your work just happens to include visiting places and foiling murderers…. Basically 1/5th of mystery inc. Vaca slasher never stood a chance.
Ripleys knows how to scare your pants off
I loooove the idea of a haunted house with an escape room at the end!
The mini golf is amping up the creativity!
WOW! I was very impressed with the Ripley's Haunted Adventure. I have never seen anything like that and done so well. Its nice to see attractions putting money in to their haunt. Shoot out to the one guy who was running it too. I also really enjoyed the mini golf course. I am adding this location to my road trip bucket list. Thanks for showing me such a cool place. Enjoyed learning about the pressed penny and Ferris wheel history.
Hi Jacob I just loved the Haunted Adventure. I thought It was really well done..Loving all you are doing In Mrytle beach fantastic place..I hope you are keeping really well All the best my friend Marie XXXXX
It looks like the FBI agent that was helping you was actually the killer just pretending. I'm pretty sure that was the story line going on.
Or Ripley's was too cheap to pay for another cast member.
@@burritofueled7415 No. You see the actual FBI agent dead.
Cool trip. I like the old fashion Ferris wheel.
Sky Wheel is an awesome ride. We rode it at night. And you are right about the Gay Dolphin, it's not a trip to the beach if you don't go there❤
Thanks for visiting my state of South carolina again
Hope you're staying hydrated from the heat
And hope your summer is going well
you are correct about the original being larger. the crazy golf side was part of it. The final room you come out of a crematorium.
The haunted attraction there used to just be a walk through with jump scares. People hiding, chainsaw people, compressed air, etc. Nice to see they changed it up to keep it fresh.
You scared the crap outta me. Your screams gave me goosebumps. Wow, what an adventure!
Nice view on the Ferris wheel !
Beautiful day !
2025, summer of snow globes.
As someone who was once in management in the parks industry, most ride operators are instructed not to allow single riders on Ferris Wheels because of safety issues, but that is not the truth. In management they never wanted the operators to know the truth and tell the park goers. In actuality it's about $. If you allow single riders then lines for the rids would be 2 or even 3 times longer along with the wait. This would discourage patrons from entering your park, therefore you're losing money. The question by some is why isn't this allowed when there are very few people waiting? It's for consistency of policy. The same way the speed limit on a highway doesn't change if there is 1 car or 1,000 cars.
Five stars for ripley's haunted adventure!!!!!
We used to go to Myrtle Beach every year when I was a kid. I haven't been since 1996 and at that point the top of the stairs at the Gay Dolphin had already been closed off for a long time. I don't ever remember ever being able to go to the top. My dad said that he had been up there at some point, but was not sure why or when it closed.
In the haunted area you kept missing the secret phases which was the clues he mentioned ..they were all around you.
If I could get on a ferris wheel I would but I am like you I walk around parks by myself all the time and can't get on the giant ferris wheel either
Oh another reason why in case of emergencies that may cause problems like a panic attack or extreme fear or seizure etcetera, the other people can alert others about what's going on and if your by yourself well unless the instructor that at the bottom see you they will not know what's going on up there.
Loved the Farris wheel ride! Beautiful view!!!!❤
Great to see you can ride the ferris wheel today 😂. Yeay for The Carpetbagger 🎉
That crazy golf place sure puts an interesting twist on mini golf! That looked like a lot of fun.
I'm also somebody who has always enjoyed doing things by myself. I love being able to go as fast or as slow as I want without worrying about other people getting bored spending time in front of things that interest me or speeding past things that don't. I think we autistics are much more likely to do things alone because we don't feel the social pressure that neurotypical people feel when they're alone. To them, it often feels weird or uncomfortable or self-conscious or even lonely. Not me.
Thinking about pressed pennies in the late 19th century, that would have been a much more expensive souvenir than they are now, almost like destroying a $5 bill for fun (OK, more like about $3.50, if the source I checked is accurate). I love that they're now a small, affordable souvenir!
The Gay Dolphin closed the observation deck in 2006 for insurance reasons 34:15. They also had a WonderFall-a giant oil lamp that ran from the tower’s ceiling to the wishing well at the bottom. I always tried to reach out and touch the strings when I was a kid 😂.
Carpetbagger, A little early Hollerin. Always good to hear.
The "Push the buttons" mechanic kind of took a lot away from the "Haunted Experience". It's nice that they tried something new... but... it doesn't quite work for me.
Think of the money you saved by not going there yourself
I'm imagining Jenn watching the minigolf part of this and shaking her head. 😃
Jacob! I’m so glad to see my living place getting vlogged about!!!!
495k!!! You're gonna make it to HALF A MILLION before Halloween time!!! And I love when the places you go recognize you and go out of their ways for you. That's so nice to see you are getting so well known.
SO, for the future, The Carpetbagger Dark Ride, The Carpetbagger Book of Adventures where your book highlights geographic areas around the country, or The Carpetbagger's Recommends...[Topic] like dark rides, really good BBQ, the best steak place you've been to in GA, stuff like that! Just sayin'... The Carpetbagger is a great brand, and you may want to consider expanding it (albeit slowly) and share all of your knowledge and interest with more people in more ways. :)
Kudos to your RUclips Channel, Jacob! 👍👍👍👍👍
Funky. So last year I was at the haunted adventure all by myself and the experience was actually a lot scarier (and I swear I'm not easy to scare). The guide was more real, there were no ropes in the hallway, more interactives, etc etc. Interesting to see them change stuff again when it was already awesome. It was so good it inspired to me write a horror novel lmao
500,000 is coming Zoltar said
👉🏼😱...THAT'LL BE ALL JACOB..THAT'LL BE ALL 😎🤟🏼
Hi Jacob 🙋🏽. I hope you had a great day today ‼️👊🏽👍🏽💯.
11:45 😆 If anyone wants to know what song was playing on the player piano - Maple Leaf Rag by Scoot Joplin
17:01 I could be wrong but judging by his expression and his arm I think he got hit on the head with a golf ball and that's a bump rising from where he got hit.
You'd do better at miniature golf and pinball if you used a chest cam for that so you'd have both hands free. 😸
FYI, The Enchanted Forest in Oregon added a smashed penny machine with Pappy. A bit of a drive for you but worth it. 🙂
I also love doing things by myself! This channel is an inspiration to go out and do more.
The Ferris wheel was my favorite part! 😊
Hi Jacob! Thanks for all of your hard work!
2:18 Ah yes. Compressed air. Jacob's only weakness. one of these days I would like to pick up a Halloween Carpetbagger doll of a scared Jacob. Pull the string and it'll shout out all of Jacob's famous scared catch phrases. My favorite will always be:
"Don't scare me, bro! Don't scare me, bro! (Creature Noise) AAHH! You scared me!"
Just want to say I’ve LOVED the last few days of videos in Myrtle Beach. Never been to Myrtle …going asap! I enjoy your vids on the daily. Thank you Mr. Carpetbagger and Hi, Jen!
You had me laughing out loud in the haunted house.
Good job on the hole in one!
Very Zen moment Jacob. The biggest prize you ever got from a claw machine is ...
yourself
If you find yourself on the coast of NC around October I HIGHLY recommend hitting up Nightmare Factory in Havelock. They've got the haunted house, a pitch dark maze many of us won't even go in with the lights on and last year it was voted #1 in the state. There's also a rage room next door though I'm not sure of the hours during Fridays/Saturdays.
Thanks!
I am from MN and was vacationing at Myrtle Beach 10 years ago and was so disappointed! I was expecting a sandy beach but it was actually loaded with sharp broken seashells. I had always dreamed of seeing the ocean with a sandy beach. The hotel was a disgusting nightmare. Broadway at the beach was fun though😊
Yay!!!Thanks for bringing a little spooky to me! I can't wait for Halloween. Great video as always.
Fun fact, Blackbeards ship the Queen and revenge is actually quite intact at the bottom of the ocean. If you get a minute, look it up it’s very interesting.
I really like how they did their haunt
First time visiting Myrtle Beach and I’m thrilled to go! Thank you so much I have a better idea now what to do this weekend. 😊❤
I want to make 11:20 - 11:24 into my phone's new ringtone!!!
Thank you sir Jacob for sharing your adventure stay safe out and about in all of your journeys
No haunted adventure at our Ripleys in OCMD but we DID go one a four hour ghost hunt in ours and i can tell you first hand that the museum is definitely haunted. They probably all are, given the origin of some of the exhibits. Tread safely my friend!
I just listened to you talk about no single riders on Ferris Wheels and I don't know where you came up with that story you told but I have never heard that before. And I have worked in the carnival business for about forty years. A lot of factors do depend on the wheel you are riding. Balance can be very hard to achieve with single riders, it's not a made up thing it's a fact.
I’ve been told this story by multiple people operating Ferris wheels. I don’t know how balancing is an issue when riders of weights are let on without any regard. Somehow a woman with a baby on her lap was allowed to ride but not me
We were just there 6/16-6/21. It was great to see your MB videos.
Morning Jacob 🤓📸 thanks for sharing this, your video is much longer then Jenny's and Adam lol.
Jacob- I’m the same way. I prefer to do most things solo. You can maximize your own enjoyment want without worrying if the other person/people are enjoying it too. Other people can be a downer… 🤷🏻♂️
Good Afternoon " YA ALL " Jacob the Carpetbagger !!
Jacob you are so inspiring and kind keep up the great work
I love this video! You are hilarious!
Really enjoyed this, this was a super fun video. Maybe someday I can visit there , and maybe I can"t and that"s why i appreciate you sharing this video and so many more. The thrills here were amazing! Thank you for sharing
Sppoky walk thru and congrats on the ferris wheel single rider.
I was just in Myrtle last week. Would have been so amazing to run into the Carpetbagger!
Thank you Jacob for another great video.
Carpetbagger you better practice mini golf Jenny Penny's going to win again😂
The gopher wasn't a unicorn. It was a bump on his head from getting hit by a gold ball.
