In this urban exploration video, we're venturing into the dark remains of Yugoslavia's biggest military base. During the Cold War, the isolated Socialist state wanted to demonstrate its military strength with this partly-underground airfield. But by now, this has become a huge, almost forgotten area that still holds invisible threats. As we trespass, there are several, often bizarre, encounters with the police. Join us and experience forgotten history first-hand! #urbex #abandonedplaces #bwturbex

What I like the most about your video is the way you narrates it. Man you are like hemingway or something telling the stories behind these abandoned place in very beautiful way. Keep up the good work. Thanks for your effort in making these series!
Excited to see this as I visited Zagreb, Croatia in 1995 during the war. It was calm when I went, sadly fighting broke out 2 weeks in and I had to fly back to Holland for the rest of my vacation. I had been visiting a friend who I gone to high school with for 3 years then she left once the war broke out (1992) as her mom was a medic and had to work for the war. She wanted to stay with her mom. She was in medical school. Can you imagine trying to study medicine while at war? They’d have days and weeks of missed classes due to air raids and bombings, fighting, the threat of it.. today she is a neurologist, married with a child.
Hats off to her 👏
I am *BEYOND* hyped for this. This is the exact type of crack that got me hooked on to BWT in the first place!!!
We have a bunch of these in the pipeline for our planned series Balkan Detours!
HEY my name is Mark and Im from The USA In the state of Vermont in the town of Barre Well HELLO GUYSl just wanted to let tell you how much I've been enjoying all the old and new content you been doing
Please keep up the great work
Hey Mark, great to have you on board. We hope to be able to do videos for a long time further!
GUYS!!! That was INCREDIBLE!!! War is horrible. Hard to believe all that money was spent for that. Such a waste; and now look at what's left. Thank you so much for the tour. I'd certainly never get to see that without someone like you to show it to me! I hope everyone who sees this gets the point.
Thank you for taking us exploring this massive place! I wish I had some funds to give but, life happens and I'm poor. I hope they don't charge for RUclips because this is the main place I can watch stuff like this free! Thank you for continuing to provide uploads free!👍😁😎
I explored the base a second time last month - the first time was in 2017. The difference was staggering! Most of the immediate area is clear of land mines and foliage, so it's become very touristy. We did a lot of light painting long exposure photography in the tunnels which was fun. And we encountered multiple border patrols with each in different vehicles. Looking forward to this video!
This video is a masterpiece combining urbex and history.
Your videos are the art the world seems to have lost, they are truly amazing and I could watch them over and over again 😊thank you
That's a huge compliment, thank you! So you like this new series style?
Making the airplane into a deli or restaurant would be great. That initial view that Till was getting ready to do looked amazing. The mountains in the back what are they called)
How awesome would that drive down the runway be in a convertible
This was a bit of history that for me forgotten. I love history. When you explore places from the past I am excited.
It is Plješevica mountain. I get to see it every day and every day it looks different, depending on light and weather.
This was very interesting. I was a child when the war broke out and ripped my country apart. Thank you for visiting Balkans! ❤️
You can blame all wars on the US . The US has started and engaged in more wars than every country combined! The US does NOT PROMOTE peace. They only promote war!
What a cool border police 😮: "Go wherever you want, be aware of a bear and the landmines and avoid flying drones on the border" 😂 Could you guys imagine every police agent you crossed in urbex like this?
I can definatly say I learned somthing today by watching this. I think all of your work is amazing. You guys have an attention to detail that is unmatched. You can tell much care goes into the production of your videos. As usual, cant wait to see more from this series.
Love and respect for both of you from Punjab
Can’t wait! Looks amazing and the voiceover is just so engaging and soothing to hear. Brilliant! 👏👍
огромное спасибо за видео ! вы красавцы как всегда !
- пусть настанут времена когда о войнах будут вспоминать только в таких заброшенных местах.
МИРУ МИР !
This is so freaking cool! Love your new series and the work you put in to it!
Thanks buddy! Can't wait to share this series with you! Unfortunately we're in the middle of some other projects atm so we'll start uploading regularly in September again. Hope you can wait that long!
@@bwturbex Heyy, yes ofcourse! :)
Exceptionally well produced. Clear narration, interesting, informed background context. Well recorded under very difficult lighting conditions.
Be careful on these types of locations. Tunnels are very dangerous, in complex tunnels it is easy to get disoriented and lost, also you should be wearing protection: hard hats, breathing apparatus - all those unknown contaminants - especially left over stuff from war supply. An incredible insight into a location I knew nothing of.
The constant wars we hear of all the time - orchestrations of the world geopolitical chess game - but to see the reality of what billions of dollars creates and wastes in the process is mind-boggling.
@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath have been there as well, and posted a tour of it 7 months ago. Thanks for yours, can,t wait to see more of your tour. Keep safe!
Yeah, I think every explorer has been here already! We just revisited the site one week back and a lot has changed. We filmed this episode in 2021, and by now, it's far more touristy.
In the early 1980's I remember going with my father while he test drove a Yugo. He could barely operate the pedals of the vehicle while wearing his work boots. There wasn't a lot of room in those things, even 5 year old ME was cramped in it lol.
That was pretty cool when the border police were perfectly fine with you guys exploring the abandoned airfield 😆 That could have ended in a couple different ways, luckily it was in your favor! Thanks for sharing another excellent video!
Looking forward to seeing this!!
We just revisted this facility the other day, and it's still as epic as it was a few years back when we filmed this video!
Looking forward to the new content. You never disappoint the viewers.
The Balkan region is a huge spot to explore. Glad you stick into it
Another quality explore lads! Really enjoyed this one.
Really became a big fan of this channel after watching the one on the underground Cold War base in Italy. Can’t wait for this one
Actually, yesterday, we were exploring a very similar facility to the one in Italy! We're currently traveling in former Yugoslavia, trying to reach Albania. If our current crowdfunding is successful we'll share this new bunker exploration next year on the channel!
You guys always do something I want to see; and that I've never known about before!
FYI:$6,000,000,000 in 1950 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $75,526,058,091.29 today, an increase of $69,526,058.09 over 73 years.
Hey awesome, thanks for figuring it out and sharing, it really is an eye opener to know how much more rather than just knowing its much ,much more than 6 billion today! 12:50
Money means nothing to the entities that create as much wealth as they need out of thin air. That it could be put to better use for the benefit of the world is the problem. @@mariannewhitefield7492
Woah! This will be an incredible watch! I'll definitely wait for the full release.
Let us know what you think about the full video when it's out!
Know this is going to be awesome! It couldn't be anything but awesome,BWT don't put out no junk❤😊😳👀👁️👀 eyes wide open and ready! Thank you for sharing these adventures ❣️
The shadow art on the walls was fun.
This is the most immersive explore of this place I have seen to date, in fact its leagues above most others! 🔥
I'm really stoked to see what comes next!
We have loads of cool content for this series, and hope that the crowdfunding is successful, so we can post the series soon!
Nice video, and thanks for the stickers!
This has become my favorite urbex channel! Keep delivering these masterpieces 😊👍🏾!
Thanks! We sure will 😁
Amazing videos and channel, greetings from Argentina
Wow!
Really extreme you guys!💯
there is also an underground airport in Montenegro
love the count down!
You guys always have some nice surprises and I'm always so impressed that you are so frugal/Sparsam. That's a new word for me! My mother always said you have to be sparing. She grew up during the Great Depression.
Erst einmal vielen Dank für eure Serie, ich bin gespannt, was noch alles kommen wird, auf jeden Fall ist es schön wenn man selber ein paar Infos dazu hat.
Z.B. über die desertierenden Piloten (ein kroatischer Pilot mit seiner MIG 21) ist ja nach Klagenfurt geflogen und dort gelandet um vor dem Krieg zu flüchten, die Maschine war bis vor wenigen Jahren noch in Österreich und wurde in diversen Museen ausgestellt, zuletzt im Hangar des Flugmuseum in Zeltweg.
Nach der Rückgabe der Maschine (es war ja sehr lang unklar, wer eigentlich den Rechtsanspruch darauf hat, immerhin gab es ja die eigentlichen Eigentumsrechte nicht mehr) wurde als "Ersatz für die Lagerkosten" eine baugleiche MIG 21 aus Kroatien überlassen.
Und jetzt kommts... als Kind das praktisch den ganzen Kriegsverlauf indirekt mitbekommen hat, kam ich sogar während einer Ausstellung dazu, die originale Maschine der Flucht zu sehen.
Nur damals wusste ich nicht um die Geschichte selbst, dies kam erst viele Jahre später direkt zu mir, umso größer war mein Respekt vor dem Weg, den dieser Pilot genommen hat, nur um nicht weiter auf seine eigenen Landsleute schießen zu müssen.
In diesem Sinne, danke dass IHR dieses Geschichtsstück besucht habt und auch das Mahnmahl hoch haltet sowie die zugehörigen Stories erzählt.
Grüße aus Niederösterreich und bitte weiter so.
this is going to be a great series! I wish I could help you guys financially but I can't spare anything. All I can do is watch and share your videos. You guys are the best!
This is already great support! Thanks for joining us on these adventures! Many greetings from Albania!
There are a few of these large underground bases in Sweden. One is a museum outside Gothenburg, some are still operational and secret.
I'm sure there are some only a few people are aware of!
This brings back memories. It's one of my first explorations in a group back in the day (circa 16, might've been a bit later). It felt a lot more dangerous and less traveled. Quite a few things are worse for wear. Weird.
Absolutely amazing. I often wonder, during your videos, how different my life life would be had my family not immigrated to Canada in 1914.
Thanks Benjamin!
Yes I can imagine that this question comes up often. We always ask ourselves what we would do now if we would have not climbed that broken window 10 years ago.
Thanks from doncaster 🇬🇧 uk
You're welcome!
this is amazing, thanks for video. view direct of the Brazil
This pilot episode is a great start to this documentary series! Look forward to next video (as usual) 👍👌
Thanks for watching! You have to wait a bit more but it'll be worth the wait, promised! :)
Beautiful explanation, thanks for sharing!
Wow! This is very interesting to experience, the underground Turner is quite interesting .thank you for sharing.
Yeah, it's something you don't see every day!
wie immer top, 15:30 beste Stelle haha
I love all your videos.
I appreciate what you are doing as I am American, and we are not being taught a great deal about other countries.
The history of former Yugoslavia is absolutely worth to know about. You'll enjoy the new series then I hope 😁
@@bwturbex you have all inspired me to take a deep dive into the history. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome video thanks guy's...x
Wait till we release the rest of Balkan Detours 😁
Wow...amazing 👍👍👍👍
Amazing can’t wait for the next video
They're coming up for sure but we can't upload atm cause we're in the middle of some other projects. In September we'll start uploading every two weeks again!
Another great video, thank you guys!
Thanks, Dolf, for your great pledge!

Sheeesh. After long months, I have finally finished the marathon of your channel. With this vid done, it's time to wait and move on to another channel marathon.
Great adventures, can't wait for more. ❤
Thanks a bunch for your commitment! We're traveling and shooting at the moment but as soon as we're back, we'll be editing again.
Excelente. Gracias por llevarnos hacia allá. Venezuela. Saludos.

I nearly went there, but changed my plans at the last minute
After watching this video, do you regret not going there?
This video of the location was like watching this location for the first and best time. Bob Thissen should take lessons from you. Grusse
i have watching you guys forever you guys have gotton me to explore more around my neighborhood and i went in a abondoned house you guys are amazing
Hey buddy, thanks so much for your kind words! It's amazing to hear we could inspire you!
Awesome video thanks
You're very welcome
How I love your videos! Beautiful, artistic, breathtaking visages, excellent commentary and ultimate respect for each and every site/location you take us to! Long sentence, I know, but it doesn't really convey how satisfying your work is to me! I so look forward to this Balkans series and I hope your funding is going well. Perhaps shortly, I might be able to contribute myself!👍💖
💚💚💚
this is great thanx u guy's and everyone involved, this is nice seeing everything in there. could u maybe find more of these plz if u want though
More of what? Underground facilities? We just explored an epic bunker here in Albania!
@@bwturbex more of these abandoned site, if u would like though. yep - i was raised on one so i wanted to see what was/ is left of them thats all. i like the way u guys find the old places like this, it is a look at what times used to be like at that time.
have a great day ppl and remember be careful where u go plz (sometimes rough ground)
Super video, thank you
A very interesting explore for sure but that place was a bit dangerous for sure aswel, we still find explosives from ww2 aswel as plains and other stuff sunken away. Sadly a war is not over when the shooting stops. So watch you r step pls hehe
WOW, einfach nur WOW
I think it was great!
"They sent us from one official to the next saying it's not their business." hahah that's so classic for Bosnian and Croatian officials, they do that for anything and to everybody.
We loved how they handled the situation 😄
Those cop encounters were pretty chill, almost routine, so maybe it's not a coincidence, police superiors or local authorities must have instructed that.
I love your channel, thank you for the amazing content
You're welcome! We've footage for many more videos! If our crowdfunding campaign is successful, we can even create something completely new and different! Can't wait to share. Many greetings from Albania!
since i discover your channel years ago you still giving us a amazing content love it so much more power to btw
Hi Sam, thanks so much! At the moment, we're trying to crowdfund a series together with our community to launch our biggest video project so far!
awesome i donated its little but i hope it help make us more great content
Yeah, we just saw it. Thanks so much, that's very kind of you!
Ich finde es etwas schade dass ihr so wenig aufrufe bekommt weil eure Videos echt nice geschnitten sind und gut produziert sind.❤
Hey, vielen Dank! Es gibt dafür einige andere Videos von uns, die millionenfach geklickt wurden. 🙏
* Guys, I remember when that base was open ! I saw something about it back in the 90's . When Clinton was president. I can't believe how overgrown it is. 🛩️🤔🛩️
Very interesting
re: 20:37 (he's playing a game of 'Jacks')
Great job .guyz....awsm
Cheers! What kind of abandoned location would you like to see next on this channel?
@@bwturbex ww2 related....
👍🏾👍🏾
I wondered which lights you use and how many lumens are lights. I was there 10 years ago and I had too weak lights and tried to get in with a car but it was impossible then, but last week I was there and went inside with the car easily.
nice sticker on that Željava sign BWT ;)
Did you also spot the other ones? 😁
@@bwturbex there is one on the plane for sure, but didnt spot it :D so manny of them there, such a cool sight
Wow! No way I want to see this place from anywhere any closer than the sofa in my family room! I can't believe anyone was stupid enough to DRIVE A CAR IN THERE!
It's always good to know that we show places to people who'll never be able to go there themselves. We hope you enjoy those littler adventures!
Came to you Instagram account by the game yall made (orphan) and now I always check if you guys has posted a new video or post:)
Hey there, welcome to the channel! We'll post a new video this Sunday!
Ich liebe eure Videos
👍🌎❤
Great video, but where is the rest of the other explorers?
Who do you mean? Tobi did not join us on any of the Balkan trips. It's just Marco and me for this project
This was a very sad war. All wars are awful. My ex was involved in this, his recollection chilled me to the bone. So many were affected. The brutality was awful. Neighbours turning on neighbours. I remember looking at google earth, over a decade later and you could still see where all the bombs dropped. Thank you for posting this.
Hello from Vorarlberg Austria 🇦🇹
I hope that you'll channel is not laid on ice😢
Kind regards Leopold 🤗
Hey Leopold, thanks for your comment! We have the most busy year of our channel ever. This summer, we're doing many travels to shoot new footage, and we just started working on our book! New videos will be posted in autumn. Best wishes from Germany!
Awesome! I just saw this video. I went to Zeljava airbase a few weeks ago with the motorcycle and documented a video about it. In case you're interested you can see it on my channel.
Keep up the nice video work! :)
Awesome video. But (and completely unrelated) I cannot add your channel to a group in Pockettube, a YT extenstion to manage your subscriptions.
I'm perplexed :D
🇨🇦👍
Where can we find the uncut version of the hours of exploration?
Haha :D just cause we're in there for several hours doesn't mean we're recording non stop
@@bwturbex that is a fair answer. Usually with exploration videos there is a few hours worth of video footage. I gravitate towards the extended vids to really enjoy the area. As its exciting to see what time has left even if its mondane.
As video editors, we prefer to show only the part of the footage that's worth showing.
This is like 20 minutes from my house
Hello? Can you trespass??
Heck yes, why do you even ask?? ;)
Welcome to the Balkans! 😄
