When you are in the middle of a Carpet bagger video, and get a notification of a new Carpet bagger video, you know it's gonna be a good day!
This is an interesting musium
As an oddity collector, these videos never fail to make me supremely envious.
YUP, or proud whenever I own a similar/equivalent item haha
Agreed!!!
@@thestudio66 I will check your channel out.... Weird is up my alley 🤪
I work nextdoor to the Museum of Weird. I love those people
Please Jacob, never change your channel, your videos are always different and interesting. I once liked also adam channel a lot too, but now it only makes disney videos, or disney resort videos. stay like this and don't change 👏🏼
Do you plan on returning to Meow Wolf's, "House Of Eternal Return"? They added updates to it.
Jacob King Tut was buried in a rush because he died so Suddently, Rumour has it the Death mask was meant for his Mother/Step Mother Nefertiti. His tomb was in the Valley of the Kings but well hidden as the General who took over from him didn't approve of Tut or his Fathers Regime. His tomb prepared and sealed in such a hurry the Paint was still wet and the Tomb is covered in Mould!
His mummification was rushed too hence why he looks like burnt Beef jerky, But in a way wiping him off the face of the earth preserved his tomb forever and made him the most famous. Another tip for spotting Royal mummies a lot of them have an Overbite.
He died aged 18/19 but he was plagued with many health Issues like Spinal problems, Club foot etc.
Loving the Channel Jacob you've kept us all sane during lockdown and I'm sure if you had a Queen as Ruler she'd Knight you haha!
Regards
Your Pal Dr.What
Yesss the man with the carpetbag is back at a museum!
Jacob your the only man that tells His wife "I'm going to go get some strange" and she has no worries and looks forward to what you bring home.
I'm someone who's done that with my ex, and I can tell you - it is possible, there just aren't many people out there that have a genuine interest in this stuff without being super weird about it. We would preserve wet-specimens together and all. A dream, I tell you.
@Annihilator X we were, and we're friends, but he's unique, and I don't think he'd ever reconsider me that way - even though it's been 2 years since we've dated. I feel like he's always searching for the next step, and I mean going backwards - which I respect.
Hey Jacob! Hope you're well. I absolutely love coming back to watch old videos like this one, they're my comfort videos 😍 Your content makes so many people happy ☺️
The Jeremy Bentham head is a facsimile. Jeremy Bentham was an nineteenth century British philosopher who is credited with creating utilitarian ethics. His entire mummified body is kept in a glass case and wheeled out at the annual meeting of the philosophy society he founded.
The music in the wax museum sounded like the theme music from Dracula (Winona rider one).
You always find the coolest, weirdest places
Get one of those parking spaces in front of the museum. There is a homeless shelter next to the parking lot with the Janis Joplin and Willie Nelson painting on the building. There was a bunch of drama going on while we walked to the museum.
Both also Texans, I’m sure you know
I could look at this place for hours! Some really cool items!
something about the doink of the camera against the glass and then the pause makes me laugh everytime
If you head back through Beaumont, check out our Gator Sanctuary at Gator County! There's one that's over 80 years old and they'll take a picture for you with your phone practically inside a gator's mouth. Sweet people and a great place.
I used to live in Austin back in 07/08 in my early 20's, man I loved that place! Austin is like no other city that's for sure! Keep Austin weird!!!!👽👾💛
Tod Browning's Freaks is a great movie!
Awesome museum.Enjoyed the tour. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤
You can visit the Museum of the Mummies of Guanajuato in Mexico. There is also a the famous Luchador movie “Santo and the Mummies of Guanajuato” 🇲🇽
The “ sea devil” is a dried up sting ray lol
I like the artistic take on the feejee mermaid at 20:50, showing what they would have looked like if "alive." Cool sculpture!
Kinda like a ripleys! Nice! 👍
Of all the years I lived in that city, I still never managed to go in that museum. Guess that's how you know who is local. 🤣 Would have liked to have gone though.
Omg! You’re in my city! Welcome to Austin! I hope you are enjoying your stay in the city
Yes there can be a two-headed chicken because I have broken eggs and I found two yolks in there at the same time.
That’s a reasonable theory. I think there can be 2 headed anything because stuff happens sometimes & gets mixed up. (Note: I do believe this can occur, IDK if that one is real or they created it.) Sometimes it was supposed to be twins & didn’t quite get there-whatever. But idk if that supports double yolk eggs...I suppose it could but they became breakfast so we’ll never know! Idk! I just like your theory! Have a blessed day!
Nice! There's so much to see in there. 👍
A place of the strange, unusual and the wierd love it x
This place is amazing! Love the Bram Stoker's Dracula music in the background. Definitely added to my bucket list. Thanks for this video.
Thank you for this virtual tour!
The perfect stomping ground for the carpetbagger!
"Creature in Ice" is the Minnesota Iceman, which was sold as a gaff on ebay in 2013 to the Museum of the Weird. You can Google photos of it if you wish. It is an historic real gaff..
Thank you for uploading! I was in Austin this past weekend and it was closed I was so sad! I am so glad this video exists!
Yes sir that's the retro puppet master replica that you seen next to the cyclops skull 🤗
I SO appreciate that you filmed the museum… I was just there yesterday and didn’t take any photos. I was so thrilled by every display, especially the Cottingley Fairies photo, which I’d seen in a book when I was a kid… couldn’t believe I was in the presence of the real thing!
Gremlins is one of my favorites too! Such a cinematic masterpiece!
I love this place!!! I went here a year ago! By far my favorite part of Austin!!! Love your channel! Shows me places to try out and it’s fun/informative to watch!
Remember…..keep Austin weird
Oddities was my favorite shooooow. I’m still sad about it being cancelled. Ten years later
Oh me too!
SAME
@RetroTrash Productions that makes me sad too
@RetroTrash Productions the actual store is closed? How could that be
@RetroTrash Productions wow. . . .pics?
Thank you so much for sharing this adventure with you.
Chang and Ang Bunker did have it to where If one of them dies then they where to be separated to save the other. Sadly the surgeon didn’t make it there in time and both Chang and Ang died within minutes of each other.

You are correct, that IS one of the Puppet Master puppets
Got to visit the Museum of the Weird a few years ago. I still wear my "creature in ice" t shirt😆
So happy when I get notified of a new video😁
Love that museum!!! Never been, but it's definitely on my list
Jacob don't take this wrong man but your voice always relaxed me man this is like my version of asmr lol
Same here I always watch then listen while I’m trying to sleep..They’re relaxing
All those times I went to the Jackalope after a Thursday Night Social Ride in years past and never noticed this spot. On the other hand, there's actually a "Jackalope #2" on the other side of the river!! Both are some killer spots, even for someone who doesn't frequent bar culture like myself.
That museum looks epic. If there is a museum in America dedicated to oddities I bet that the Carpetbagger has visited.
I love Shrunken Heads💓💓💓💓
Don’t know what I would do without your channel
I just went here and it was pretty cool! I would've never knew about it if I didn't see this video thank you !!
The creature in ice is a gaff that was purchased off of Ebay and is on display there. 😂
Thanks for commin' back down to Texas!
Great museum! Love the waxworks !
It's always such a cool feeling when you click on a video & start watching in the same exact minute that it was uploaded by chance lol
New bucket list. Thanks.
11:07 the mystery sphere was solved when it was found to be a big ball out of a check valve made by Bell&Howell Corp. mystery solved...but hey...you gotta admit it makes a good conversation piece : )
“ Where does that possum reference come from...were you attacked while driving your car?”
The possum is his spirit animal
Born and raised in Austin,Texas never heard of this place must be new.I will have to check it out looks awesome.
I loved watching the show Oddities! I would love to go to this museum.
I did not know they have that here in Austin I am defiantly going to have to check it out.
Happy greetings and best wishes to you and the family from Joseph .
I really enjoyed this video .thanks for posting this.
London After Midnight is one of the most famous lost films.
I have to go there! That looks like my kind of place.... Road trip!
Didn't know Chang & Eng are in Mt. Airy, NC.
Yup. They married local north Carolina sisters and each had several kids each.
"Freaking oddity history", that's nicely put. P.T. Barnum was a spirit brother of Ripley to be sure.
Very nice museum Jacob, thank you!
Always love your videos..love from Australia 💖
I’d love to visit there!
Austinyte here! Yesss
I've been to obsceura in brooklyn. It's awesome!
Didn’t expect a replica of Jeremy Bentham’s head.
Very interesting and weirdly interesting
Another Great video carpet bagger this one's in the bag.
It’s Frankenstein’s monster!!! The doctor is Dr. Frankenstein!!
Love your videos 😁
Loved the show Oddities too.
Great video
Another great museum. Thanks Bob Calderon
the music there is awsome
I loved this place!
Nice love this
I would never see Quasimodo as a monster maybe he looked scary but once you got to know him he had the most beautiful soul and was a gentle kind person and if you were kind to hIm he’d look after you Iv seen the live action versions of the film and at first I was like omg when I first seen him but by the end just wanted to hug him and stroke his cheek even kiss him on the cheek but Disney made him all cute and cuddly
My great grandmother had a miniature poodle named scruffy
Nice to see a collection of CLASSIC horror film icons, rather than yet another bunch of 'slashers'!
King Tut was indeed buried in a tomb in a location called the Valley of the Kings, which also contains tombs of other kings. The idea was that tomb robbers would be less able to rob their tomb, did not work.
But if you could, I am curious about that voodoo place behind you.
So that’s who won the bid for that gremlins 2 set piece..
Really cool. That was wierd but fun. I think i would be scared to death to go in there. Thanks for taking us with you. Id love to see more of your videos. Im a new subscriber. Thank you.
I went to Obscura in NY before they closed and got a hat signed by the stars.
Lucky!
Jars and jars of fun!
Zoltan looks like Uncle Fester...
Ooo getting closer to my city
Nice videos man
16:50
“No, it’s pronounced ‘Fronkensteen’.”

Wow...😮...yeah, that was an incredibly neato place...🤘🏼💯✔️
I'll have to check this place out next time I'm around Austin looks real cool
Omg come to Lampasas, TX! 60 miles north of Austin ! 😭
The critter was cute
Very cool museum. Just subbed your channel.
Omg Gingee is super adorable♥ I feel like that two-headed chicken might be fake but I feel they absolutely can exist since other species have that occur as well.
Yes Audrey 2!!!
A Critter! So awesome!
Hi carpetbagger awesome video cool place keep the great job up
