Abandoned Southern New Jersey - Cinematic Drone Flight over Ruins - Mavic Air 2

  • Опубликовано: 29 авг 2020
  • Wanting to really add a new layer to my adventure videos, I picked up a Mavic Air 2, a drone by DJI, and took it out for a spin. I've never flown a drone before and this footage is from my first test flights. It's a relatively portable setup that I think shouldn't be difficult to bring on future expeditions.
    This video was done as a test, but if it does well, I might do more standalone drone videos of abandoned locations.

    I JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL!
    LOVE IT!❤
    When i used to live in SoCal years ago,
    I treated my wife to a long weekend aboard the Queen Mary for our 25th anniversary years ago.
    It was truly an experience.
    We walked the entire ship at 230am, i have a picture of my wife walking up the stairway outside the pool area with a fuzzy apparition following her.
    So yes,
    the Queen i think is haunted.
    You should send beautiful video to the visitors center of NJ for them to use as a promotional video for the state of NJ...
    I'm sure they'd love it.
    I'm also now planning on getting a Mavic Air 2!!
    All the footage is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL❤❤❤❤
    THANK YOU!
    God bless from SW TX 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤❤🤠

If you ever end up back there taking more drone footage, check out the edwin b forsythe reserve (if they allow drone footage, of course) and the weymouth and estell manor areas.

    I love the old abandoned buildings. Back when I was riding the school bus, my driver Frank (probably in his 60's) drove a route that passed by his father's old gas station!
    One day, he allowed me and a friend to look into one of the windows. The single gas pump had long since lost the front and back, leaving the innards exposed. It was pitch black in the old store. We couldn't go in, due to the floor being rotted out, but it was still nice of Frank.
    There was also an abandoned school, but I don't really have any information on it unfortunately.
    Oh man, if only those old walls could talk, think of all the history they would have to tell!

    One bit of feedback if you want it, is that most of the video is a little too dark. I'm in a dim room with a calibrated monitor and I had to stop after a few minutes to turn up the brightness. Otherwise it's beautiful.

    Beautifully done. What was the red building that looked like a covered bridge?
    My husband and I stumbled upon Bivalve and Shell Pile in the early 90s. The East Pt Lighthouse was all brick then. It's heartbreaking to see the towns in such disrepair. The schooner Clyde Phillips was in dry dock then and volunteers were restoring it. At least that work was completed and it's now the official state schooner.
    That bunker in Cape May was in the water back in the 80s. There was a steep wooden bridge or stair case (I'm old enough to be forgetting details) to get to the top of it.

    Nicely filmed. That rain-cloud 1:44, & the freight trains at 1:24 were particularly good. Interesting to see the military fortifications built against the threat of the III Reich stretched as far across the ocean as this. It would be interesting to get inside Battery #223 to look around. Also looking at this one is reminded of how new in historical terms the USA is, & - to British eyes - how fragile much of its outlying rural townscapes appear with their transient wooden construct buildings. This still temporary condition that is America is quite interesting given its current politico-societal situation.

    • @JWall416
      @JWall416 3 года назад +1

      I’ve seen a few photos of the inside of the bunker; apparently it was stripped out and abandoned after the ‘62 nor’easter (it had been used for some sort of sonar station until then) and got about a foot of seagull droppings inside before being sealed with concrete blocks (for now).

No, the town still stands, many of the old ship captain homes have been redone but it still exists, alive and well...except for the old bridge across the river itself. This was a grand place to grow up; hayrides in the autumn and caroling at Christmas...I look back fondly, yet so distant both in time and space.

    Why is so much of South Jersey abandoned? Plain and simple: it is too damned
    difficult and expensive to get government's cooperation and the required
    permits. Economic recovery experts and business leaders, including our
    businesses nonprofit organizations have faced this time and again. We have a
    'one size fits all' approach to permitting cost in the state while everyone
    recognizes that what is appropriate, affordable and manageable in the northern
    part of the state is simply economically impossible here in South Jersey. We
    have the technology and resources to rebuild responsibly and sustainably here,
    but can't afford the government required permit costs. As an example, one small
    community sustainability project I worked on last month called a "ramp of
    last resort" where the physical materials (mostly concrete blocks) cost
    $5,000, the labor would be donated by local businesses and nonprofits, but the
    permitting legal and engineering cost would be $25,000+, so the project was
    abandoned because of this. Even the NJDEP leadership in charge of permitting
    knows that the system is broken. Our local politicians seem to have given up
    hope of reforming the NJDEP permit process. Thus, most of my rural South Jersey
    county sits in ruins despite our efforts at sustainable recovery.

      I've been aboard her twice but want to get on it again to make a documentary. It's hard to get a hold of the conservancy though.

      @@PartTimeExplorer I wish that she will not get scrapped. She is really America's flagship and deserves as much respect as the Queen Mary.

      Part-Time Explorer yeah, the future of the ship is uncertain, so i hope you can get in before something happens and the ship isn’t around, or is at the bottom. Great work on the thg game! I’m a titanic fan myself, my current goal is to make a model of the ship sink and split in real time, but, the model is still in testing phases. Can’t wait to see the final game, even if i probably can’t afford to purchase it when it comes out.

      @@AndyHappyGuy i believe there have been discussions about using the ship to make an artificial reef, which isnt the end anybody wants, but its better than being scrapped.
