welcome everyone Adam the woo here happy
0:04
Sunday hopefully you guys are having a
0:05
great weekend thus far I am in Hannibal
0:09
Missouri at the birthplace childhood
0:11
home the home the beginning of a
0:14
fantastic historical figure that you can
0:17
probably figure out who that historical
0:20
figure is but it's not the one you're
0:22
thinking of it's someone else and just
0:26
like Hannibal in The A Team always says
0:30
I love it when a plan comes together
0:32
well I love it when a vlog comes
0:36
together that didn't really make any
0:37
sense it's my second channel daily blog
0:39
channel it's the daily stomping grounds
0:42
the daily woo stomping grounds of Mark
0:45
Twain but this Vlog is not about Mark
0:48
Twain because I have been here a number
0:49
of times this is my third third not two
0:52
my third visit to Hannibal Missouri and
0:56
I have done a lot of pictures some
0:57
videos some other Vlogs from Hannibal as
1:00
well as the area and my good friend
1:02
Justice C from live fast iport is a
1:04
self-proclaimed afficionado of Mark
1:07
Twain and I'm going to leave the Mark
1:09
Twain isms in the form of Vlogs and Main
1:12
Channel videos to him but there is one
1:14
other fantastic historical figure who
1:17
was born here and lived here for almost
1:20
two now we can actually use the two two
1:23
decades you ever see the movie Titanic
1:25
did you ever hear about the tragedy of
1:27
the Titanic well there was somewhat on
1:30
the Titanic who was born right here in
1:33
Hannibal Missouri I am talking about
1:36
shun the Titanics Molly Brown The
1:42
Unsinkable Molly Brown maybe you've
1:44
heard of her well her birthplace and the
1:48
museum is right there just follow the
1:51
captain's long arm not the long arm of
1:55
the law but the long arm of the captain
1:58
and sh
2:01
right up there is where she was born and
2:04
where she lived at the top of this steep
2:07
little incline right here on dinkler
2:11
alley d e n k l e r alley and Highway 36
2:17
you can go on Google satellite street
2:19
view or what other area
2:22
satellite technology online you like to
2:25
use and actually see exactly where we
2:27
are standing at this moment on the
2:28
corner of dinkler alley and Highway 36
2:31
and there is a sign here that says Molly
2:34
Brown parking now this is actually is
2:37
not specifically for Molly Brown because
2:40
Molly Brown actually has passed away she
2:42
was born a very long time ago and has
2:45
since passed on but her memory and her
2:47
Legacy live on not only internationally
2:51
but also right here in Hannibal Missouri
2:55
Molly Brown parking and the thing is
2:59
when you climb
4:05
imagine having to drive up and down this
4:05
every day of course when Molly Brown was
4:07
around they probably did not have
4:09
vehicles of this nature so they would
4:11
have had to have a horse carriage maybe
4:13
come up here a lot of walking so she was
4:15
probably in very good shape her thighs
4:18
and her legs are probably very strong
4:19
from walking up this hill what was the
4:22
name of Molly Brown was her original
4:25
maiden name if you will do you remember
4:27
yeah uh Margaret toin Margaret Tobin
4:30
lived here at this exact residence in
4:34
this home for 18 years and then she
4:37
moved to another state out of Missouri
4:39
she married a gentleman with the last
4:41
name of brown affectionately became
4:44
Molly Brown and of course we all know
4:47
her from the
4:50
Titanic and this is where it all started
4:52
let's see if we can actually go inside
4:53
have you looked inside the windows yet
4:55
all right let's go inside and look in
4:57
the windows you see some of the original
4:59
brick
5:00
here this is what I was saying you see
5:02
the plants obviously have seen better
5:05
days because this is a seasonal
5:07
business and they are not open currently
5:10
in fact you can see they don't even have
5:12
their hours up here or an open sign but
5:14
let's look inside the
5:20
windows not really much in there other
5:20
than a desk but I think in this window
5:23
we might actually see some artifacts and
5:24
some
5:43
you can see an old oven in there and you
5:43
can see a Stairway that leads to the
5:45
second floor you got to wonder if anyone
5:47
knows out there definitely leave some
5:49
comments about which room do you think
5:51
was Molly's room as a child which one of
5:55
these rooms was probably on the top
5:56
floor where the bedrooms were in here
5:59
was the kitchen
6:10
right on the side of this little
6:10
Hill go up these
6:26
stairs and as you can see when she lived
6:26
here they did not have central heat and
6:27
air but now that is actually is a museum
6:29
and they're actually saving the
6:31
artifacts inside they want to keep the
6:33
people the tourists that are coming here
6:35
in the on season they want to keep them
6:37
comfortable inside the building so that
6:39
is what that is for that has been
6:41
obviously added since Molly
6:44
Brown so here's something interesting
6:47
she actually did not get the name the
6:49
nickname Unsinkable Molly Brown until
6:51
after she actually passed away and of
6:54
course Molly Brown was one of the when I
6:56
think she was in Lifeboat 6 from the
6:58
Titan it was Lifeboat six right Lifeboat
7:01
6 from the Titanic when they were going
7:03
away it was not loaded heavily enough
7:05
and as in the movie they actually
7:07
portrayed that to some extent I don't
7:08
know if that was completely correct
7:10
historically correct but they basically
7:12
loaded the lifeboats down not enough and
7:15
she tried to rile up the person who was
7:17
actually rowing the boat she was
7:18
actually helping row herself they were
7:20
trying to go back to the Titanic to pick
7:22
up more people and there is a lot of
7:24
controversy whether or not she succeeded
7:26
in getting that Lifeboat 6 to go back
7:29
the Titanic to pick up more people so
7:31
there is a lot of discrepancy whether or
7:33
not that actually really did happen what
7:37
are your thoughts on that and what are
7:40
your thoughts on that did she go back
7:41
and save people or did she not save
7:43
people I think she did she did yeah so
7:46
for the sake of this Vlog and for the
7:48
sake of your historical memory she did
7:51
she was a lifesaver and then after the
7:55
fact she actually did after she survived
7:57
the Titanic she was one of the very few
8:00
survivors and I think one of the very
8:02
few female survivors in fact there was a
8:05
whole court case and a whole
8:07
investigation into why the Titanic sunk
8:09
and she was actually not allowed to
8:11
testify do you know why she was not
8:12
allowed to testify she was a woman
8:15
because exactly because she was a woman
8:17
because back in those days things were a
8:19
little bit different very bizarre how
8:21
they did things back in the olden days
8:22
so she was not allowed to actually
8:24
testify on the behalf of what really
8:26
happened which is very very interesting
8:30
but this is the
8:38
porch of Molly
8:38
Brown and I'm guessing back in her day
8:41
there was not an exit sign here she
8:43
probably knew where to exit her own home
8:45
this is actually kind of a cool house
8:47
living here on the side of this inclin
8:57
hill there's the dinner
8:57
table and a stove
9:00
to keep the house warm in the cold
9:01
winter months here in
9:08
Missouri so you have two fantastic
9:08
historical figures here in
9:11
Hannibal of course Mark Twain being the
9:14
first and the most notable and highly
9:16
promoted in all the touristy stuff
9:18
that's around here but there's also
9:20
Molly Brown who was right inside this
9:24
door which is super cool I'm guessing
9:26
this is structurally sound enough to
9:28
walk on
9:35
very cool any other facts or figures you
9:35
would like to add about The Unsinkable
9:37
Molly Brown no I think you covered it I
9:40
think you didn't even know what I said
9:41
at the beginning so how do you know I
9:42
covered everything I know all right I
9:44
covered everything at least you know her
9:47
real knew her real name I did not
9:49
actually know what her maiden her real
9:51
name originally was so very interesting
9:55
all right I have a moment of quietness
9:56
now I'm going to show you the house from
9:58
a distance so you can get kind of a cool
10:01
view of actually where she lived let's
10:03
check that out from down here and I'll
10:05
see you guys later we're continuing a
10:07
road trip back towards the West Coast
10:11
I'm actually going to Marceline Missouri
10:12
today which is where Walt Disney grew up
10:14
to childhood home I will not be filming
10:16
a vlog but I will be there later today I
10:19
will post a bunch of pictures on
10:20
Instagram as well as a bunch of pictures
10:22
from here currently either before or
10:25
after I upload this video from here in
10:28
Hannibal so go to my Instagram Adam the
10:30
woo on Instagram and you can check all
10:32
that out all right moment of quietness
10:34
starts right
11:18
hate to interrupt you but this was
11:18
probably the original staircase look at
11:20
these concrete stairs leading to the
11:22
front door that was probably the front
11:24
door which is very interesting those
11:26
stairs which are now grown over with sod
11:29
and mud and G that was probably one of
11:32
the original staircases that she would
11:34
have walked up to go in her house as a
11:36
teenage girl little did she know that
11:39
she was going to be such a historical
11:41
figure and be one of the survivors from
11:43
the Titanic
11:46
itself so pretty cool check down below
11:49
for my t-shirts AB the woo.
11:50
spreadshirt.com there is a daily woo
11:52
t-shirt the daily woo t-shirt over on
11:54
there that you can get I am closely
11:56
honing in on a thousand days a lot of
11:58
people have asked why have the last
12:00
couple videos been a little shorter when
12:02
I say shorter 5 6 7 8 9 10 15 minute
12:05
long Vlogs as opposed to 30 minute Vlogs
12:08
and the reason is you will notice the
12:10
quality of these is not in HD because
12:12
since I am traveling the countryside
12:14
finding Wi-Fi to upload in HD is very
12:17
difficult and even uploading in 360 or
12:20
480 is very very difficult as well so
12:23
the shorter when I say short right now
12:25
we're at 12 1/2 minutes so this will be
12:27
a 13-minute vlog when I say short these
12:29
are not that short but they are shorter
12:31
than the ones I have been doing because
12:33
when I'm back in California at home I
12:35
actually have decent Wi-Fi so I'm able
12:38
to upload longer videos so that is the
12:40
reason why the Vlogs on the road are a
12:42
little bit shorter and a little bit less
12:45
HD inness if you will all right going to
12:48
see you later look somebody else has
12:50
appeared up there to stop off and see
12:54
the Molly Brown House we started a trend
12:57
everyone congratulations there's another
12:59
person we me and you together
13:01
vicariously have started a trend of
13:04
goodness when it comes to Molly Brown
13:07
historical accuracy even though nothing
13:10
I say really is ever accurate in fact
13:12
never take anything I say as factual
13:14
always do your own research I am just
13:16
here to show you awesome things I'll see
13:18
you guys later goodbye
