0:08 I don't think we're getting through this
0:08 way there's some barb wire here and a
0:11 really rickety wooden
0:14 staircase that is blocked off by this
0:16 fence so we have to find another way
0:19 down there must be another way look at
0:22 that beautiful view and we're heading
0:24 this way and those two young ladies in
0:27 front of us did not he the warning don't
0:32 go any further that's what it says right
0:35 here I was just reading that I didn't
0:36 mean to startle you yeah this is like a
0:39 makeshift
0:41 terrifying slide of of death right here
0:45 it's almost like it looks like a
0:47 something you would like shoot like logs
0:48 down or something I mean I know what
0:51 you're thinking right now but I wasn't
0:52 thinking those kind of logs you're not
0:54 really going to go down that are you no
0:56 yeah don't slide down that oh my God you
0:58 probably tear your pants and up I one of
1:01 my butt cheeks wouldn't even fit in
1:03 there and you'd go off that Cliff right
1:04 there look definitely some snakes down
1:14 there someone has tossed their shoes up
1:14 on top of the power lines they's
1:16 dangling there in the
1:18 wind like a Candle in the Wind if you
1:22 look closely down there at the bottom of
1:24 this hill and down the bottom of that
1:26 Ravine is an old
1:28 truck just decomposing
1:33 here park ranger
1:35 alert park ranger
1:38 alert I don't know if we're supposed to
1:40 be up
1:41 here but they didn't say anything they
1:43 didn't stop us I was a little hesitant
1:45 about going on the property at first but
1:47 this sign clearly states do not enter
1:51 until February 23rd
1:55 2016 and that date has passed which
1:58 means
2:00 we're going in welcome everyone I'm in
2:03 Southern California today and I have
2:05 some special guests the lovely ladies
2:07 from abnd dn. us see I got it right this
2:11 time and we are here today to visit the
2:14 Murphy Ranch and some say it was an old
2:19 Nazi sympathizer camp I don't know if
2:22 that's true we are not here to delve
2:24 into that subject but we are here to
2:26 delve into the abandoned Relic
2:30 at the
2:31 bottom of this hill are you guys ready
2:34 yeah are you ready for this are you
2:36 excited are you guys
2:38 excited join us shall
3:04 you it all starts at the cusp of this
3:04 crazy very steep
3:07 stairwell and it runs all the way down
3:10 the side of this mountain you guys have
3:13 been down here before this is the second
3:14 day in a row yep so you guys are
3:16 returning it's like deja vu for you that
3:18 water tower so you haven't been over to
3:20 the water tower yet no so we should try
3:22 to get over there at some point in this
3:23 video it's
3:30 happening
3:30 straight down this is like the stairway
3:33 to
3:33 Hades the Hades that's that's the
3:36 politically correct word that's the
3:39 politically correct word for for helles
3:42 for
3:51 hell quick pit stop as we head down the
3:51 side of these stairs there is some sort
3:54 of gear shift there perhaps maybe a
3:57 water system see if it actually
4:06 turns nope no water I'm not going to lie
4:06 this is a lot of
4:08 stairs they just keep going and
4:11 going we got a little bit of a ways to
4:13 go still
4:26 yeah this really starts to wreak havoc
4:26 on your shins and your knees now I
4:27 really don't know the history of this
4:29 place and I don't even want to jump to
4:30 conclusions you can do that research on
4:33 your
4:45 own I like it the tree I like it a lot
4:45 why do you like it what do you like
4:46 about the tree oh cuz it's covered in
4:48 glitter and blue paint it matches her it
4:51 matches your hair yeah the tree you got
4:54 the idea for your hair from that tree
4:56 don't lie they're born of the same Earth
4:58 it's really kind of hard to get AG on
5:00 how steep this is from the camera's
5:02 point of view but trust
5:03 me this is pretty
5:12 steep oh look at this water wonder if
5:12 this water works ah the nozzle's gone
5:16 foiled I just realized this tree is
5:20 very glamorous so says the tag that is
5:24 dangling from
5:26 it glamorous whenever you're on an
5:29 adventure you definitely got to stay
5:30 hydrated I have my water and I have a
5:32 secondary water do you have a water yeah
5:34 I have a water it's in my backpack how
5:35 come I'm drinking more than you guys are
5:37 I don't know we didn't drink any water
5:39 yesterday and we came to the top of the
5:41 hill and we're like I've already
5:42 consumed at least 8 O of water we
5:44 haven't even started I know that was the
5:47 downhill it's only going to get rougher
5:49 from here and there's a fork in the road
5:52 do we take the left or do we take the
5:55 right do we take the left or do we we
5:59 take the
6:01 right which way no I'm asking a question
6:05 which way do we go do we take the left
6:06 or do we take the right I was asking you
6:08 guys we're taking the right okay we're
6:09 going up this way if you're out here and
6:11 you need to use the restroom do not
6:13 defecate here do not defecate
6:24 there and normally when you arrive to an
6:24 abandoned location there really is no
6:26 one else there but there are a lot of
6:28 people out here on the property people
6:30 hiking people walking people just
6:33 hanging out kind of crazy how many
6:36 people are
6:48 here
6:48 yeah there it is that's the main
6:50 building
6:51 mhm and it looks like a few people have
6:56 decided to spray paint just a couple I'm
7:00 best guessing probably 11 12 maybe a
7:03 Baker's Dozen handful of people have
7:06 decided to ordain this place with their
7:10 handiwork this almost looks like a slide
7:13 like maybe when it rains the rain water
7:15 pours down these stairs but could also
7:17 be used as a Stairway when I say always
7:19 be used I mean in the past because no
7:21 one's using this now as a Stairway
7:24 they're just using it as
7:26 decoration for the world
7:34 go up these stairs and see if we can get
7:34 a side view of the building
7:47 cool pretty
7:47 cool it almost looks like the hillside
7:50 over there when you hike it it looked
7:52 like they were going to do like terrist
7:53 like Gardens or something over
8:00 there
8:01 those guys have their opinion everyone
8:03 has an opinion doing a mural in there oh

8:23 pain oh wow look under

11:38 I finally found
12:16 really cool these rocks that are
12:16 embedded in the cement here it's almost
12:18 like this place used to actually be kind
12:20 of beautiful at one point and decorative
12:22 leading up this kind of creepy and
12:25 awesome
12:27 stairway look at that I would say
12:29 judging by the charred remains of this
12:33 2x4 and the burn marks on it that there
12:36 was some sort of a brush fire out
12:40 here nailed
12:43 it nailed
12:51 it we found another stairwell we're
12:51 going to see where this
12:57 leads oh man
12:57 this going back up that's the tough part
13:00 if you look closely there are some power
13:02 lines way up there that's where we're
13:05 heading but not before first taking a
13:09 break right here hanging out with some
13:12 flies just hanging out with some flies
13:13 on my face mhm FL flies on the face
13:16 lizards you know what I could use other
13:18 than a lizard right now is a blizzard a
13:20 blizzard cuz it's very warm this is
13:23 seriously the never-ending
13:25 stairwell holy
13:28 cow
13:46 made it to the top of these stairs and
13:46 we turn this way and this is what we are
13:49 laying our eyes
13:51 on oh this is awesome it looks like
13:54 there's like a little entry wayp point
13:55 right here
14:01 too we're at the top of the mountain we
14:01 made it we're the king of the
14:03 world look at that that's cool you can
14:06 see near pretty much close to the near
14:08 the top of this how vast this property
14:11 is and the stairway that we came in is
14:14 over there and you can kind of see some
14:16 people going up and down the stairway
14:18 and you can hear their voices as they
14:21 walk through the
14:57 looks like there's another chunk of a
14:57 car right there that got cast down the
14:59 side of this
15:00 mountain and looks like you guys are
15:02 going to do another photo shoot one
15:14 more okay this is it the
