3:11 the door up there that he ran down from
3:13 I'm going to sneak up here to the cabin
3:15 now and show you what the stairs look
3:17 like these are the stairs right here
3:19 that Michael J fox ran down from after
3:22 he read the family their mail the cabin
3:25 is in quite disarray now compared to
3:27 what it used to look like in the movie
3:29 well couldn't get inside but this is
3:31 where Michael J fox read the mail to the
3:33 people who couldn't read the ambulance
3:35 would have been right over there where
3:36 Robert is parked Michael J fox came
3:39 running right back out of there got back
3:41 in the ambulance and drove
3:50 off that one yeah what about Ellen in
3:53 Pakistan a dead
3:56 snake the road behind me here is where
3:59 my Michael J fox and the guy who played
4:01 the mayor drove in when he was giving
4:03 him the tour of the small town of Grady
4:06 I don't let the signs of prosperity in
4:07 urban sprawl here in downtown scale
4:09 we're still the same sleepy little
4:11 Paradise that many big city SS recommend
4:13 for their patients with nervous
4:14 disorders it's the common effect of
4:16 greatest natural ozone so you can see
4:18 the whole downtown area it basically
4:20 looks exactly like it did in the movie
4:22 right over in this area here is
4:24 basically where the statue would have
4:26 been right here holding the squash act
4:28 as a world class member hospital just up
4:30 the road with that's a comforting
4:32 thought benstone you like coffee you
4:34 like coffee we won't go in here if you
4:35 go over here to this way there was a
4:38 makeshift building they built here
