0:05
Lake City look at very creepy this
0:09
morning according to the weather it's
0:11

0:15
night now I could take heat of this
0:16
forecast and sit around in my hotel room
0:18
all day I'm not gonna do that because
0:20
where there is coffee and a purpose
0:23
there is adventure welcome everyone Adam
0:26
Dahl whoo here it's my second channel
0:31
daily vlog Channel it's that daily whoo
0:34
we got a heck of a lot of ground to
0:36
cover today before this public
0:38
transportation train system was put in
0:40
the opening shot of one of my favorite
0:44
comedies was filmed right here 22 years
0:48
ago Jim Carrey drove his limousine right
0:51
down this road in a 1994 classic Dumb
0:55
and Dumber they placed a sign saying
0:56
Hope Street right there the camera
0:59
panned down and the beautiful girl was
1:02
standing right here on this corner and
1:03
he pulled up similar to how that car is
1:06
approaching us now we're standing in
1:08
front of a brick building that has been
1:09
demolished and they have replaced it
1:11
with this but there is one way to tell
1:13
that this is the exact spot directly
1:15
across the street where the limo pulled
1:17
up this building is the same this
1:20
electrical box is the same that's the
1:23
shot right there
1:24
Lloyd Christmas that's a lovely accent
1:27
New Jersey and right up here we have the
1:29
introduction of our second character Oh
1:31
Harry old buddy old pal
1:33
yep that's totally yes is where he drops
1:36
the dogs off I crimp them and i groomed
1:38
him myself
1:39
right there's where he's talking to her
1:40
that's the shot that's the angle that's
1:44
awesome because people back there did
1:45
not like that I was filming I should
1:48
probably throw a little disclaimer in
1:49
right here some of these locations will
1:51
be filmed out of sequence because it was
1:53
filmed all around Utah and only about
1:56
half to 3/4 of the movie was filmed in
1:59
this state and that's what we're
2:01
concentrating on in this wall but it's
2:03
just simply way too good of a subject
2:05
matter to pass this one up honestly my
2:08
mind is completely blown that I am
2:09
visiting two dumb and dumber spots
2:12
I want you to look across the street
2:14
because something amazing is about to be
2:17
bestowed upon your eyes gonk gonk gonk
2:22
gonk gonk God Harry and Lloyds apartment
2:29
is this really happening right now
2:30
that's where the shaggin wagon was
2:32
parked it looks identical as it did in
2:35
the film even the little overhangs from
2:38
the apartments the drainage coming from
2:40
the roof that little weird planter in
2:45
the middle you watch the movie closely
2:46
when they are escaping around this
2:48
corner when they come running around
2:50
there is a guy urinating on the wall I
2:54
got to get the Billy in 4c shot right
2:56
here pretty bird pretty bird Polly want
3:02
a cracker
3:02
I seriously can't believe this is
3:06
happening right now and right down here
3:08
on the right is where he got robbed by a
3:10
sweet little old lady on a motorized
3:12
cart and he didn't even see it coming
3:14
there's really no way of matching this
3:16
shot up because the building has been
3:18
completely redone but Jim Carrey would
3:20
have been walking right there with his
3:22
paddle ball and he stopped to get that
3:25
adult newspaper with his red rod and out
3:30
of that Union Pacific Railroad that's
3:33
cool and just across the street from
3:35
that is the Devereux mansion home of the
3:39
exteriors from the owl events it's hard
3:43
to get the image of the two of them in
3:44
their colorful tuxedos walking right
3:47
into that door not much has changed over
3:49
the years
3:50
and really the only set dressing they
3:52
put on this was a sign right there
3:55
saying Aspen
4:05
the only interiors that were inside
4:05
there's right when they walk in the
4:07
foyer and Jeff Daniels smashes the back
4:10
of Jim Carrey's calf with his cave right
4:14
inside there next to that stairwell the
4:18
camera would have been facing towards us
4:20
and all the rest of the interiors were
4:23
across the street
4:41
holy cow this is it this is it I can't
4:41
believe the doors were open to this
4:43
place but the bar that Jim Carrey and
4:46
Jeff Daniels stood out was basically
4:49
right where those two guys are walking
4:53
past and then right here they put a red
4:57
drape over that door this is incredible
5:02
this is the truth what are you gonna do
5:07
I'm gonna hang by the bar put out the
5:11
vibe oh shoot I almost didn't see that
5:21
truck there must have been a complete
5:22
nightmare to record audio in that room
5:24
was the echo was insane they must have
5:26
had huge boom mics or made me voice it
5:29
over in the studio crazy echo in that
5:32
place about 20 or so miles to the next
5:34
destination
5:35
look at that sky this is definitely some
5:38
beautiful countryside especially with
5:40
the leaves changing those clouds
5:44
festooning themselves on the mountains
5:46
not a hundred percent sure if this is a
5:48
sidewalk or a driveway
5:56
I'm gonna chance it and just go through
5:56
here okay we're doing it ah yes this
6:02
spot looks awfully familiar this is the
6:04
spot from the dream sequence where he
6:06
walks up and knocks on the door she
6:08
opens it and all the doves flutter
6:10
behind her now haven't you the opening
6:11
here a few things have changed they have
6:13
added a fireplace but the rockwork and
6:17
the door and the roof all pretty much
6:21
looked similar and that's where it fades
6:23
into his dream even the planners are
6:26
still the same the tile on the ground is
6:28
now concrete check that out he was
6:32
knocking on that exact door yeah even
6:38
have the fire going just like in the
6:39
movie so they hung a drape right here
6:41
like a hung a drape over there that was
6:45
awesome
6:46
I can't believe they let me up there to
6:48
look at that huge thanks to the ladies
6:49
who were in the office upstairs oh let
6:51
me get a shot of that fireplace where
6:53
Jim Carrey we like telling the jokes
6:54
everyone was laughing he threw that like
6:56
the peanuts up in the air he was like
6:57
munching on them so far they kindly
7:00
asked for me not to go on this property
7:02
but if you look all the way down at the
7:06
end of this pathway it says private
7:08
residence that's where he pulls the limo
7:11
up and first meets Mary still looks the
7:15
same this is as close as we can get but
7:18
I factor they let me up on that upstairs
7:19
to get that fireplace shot really can't
7:23
complain 36 miles to the next spot look
7:26
at the water flooding into the pathway
7:28
is that it goose over there are you a
7:32
goose no but that's a real nice ski mask
7:50
looks like sometimes it gets so snowy
7:50
they have these gates that close right
7:54
there is Nicolas Andres house up here at
7:58
the top of this mountain he was the
8:00
villain bad guy in the movie and that's
8:04
this place right there tucked away up
8:06
here that was definitely a long way to
8:08
get one shot 20 miles to the next
8:11
location looks like I'm heading right
8:14
into the darkness I think I am literally
8:17
the same elevation as the clouds there's
8:23
the hotel still looks to say what
8:28
happened Harry some little Philly break
8:31
your heart
8:36
now I was a girl this was the sign
8:36
itself the second time is the best and
8:41
that drycleaner sign used to be a
8:43
florist the phone booth was right here
8:45
as we're mental punched the guy who was
8:48
kind of giving him a lip and the shaggin
8:50
wagon would have been parked right there
8:53
in that spot there are no hot tubs in
8:56
these rooms at least not ones that are
8:59
shaped like a heart
9:00
48 miles to the next location this is
9:04
quite the undertaking to accomplish in
9:06
one day all these miles filming editing
9:08
getting the vlog uploaded all in a day's
9:11
time I love a good challenge lured
9:19
drivin whistling never heard anyone
9:28
at the Salt Lake City International
9:28
Airport happened this is where Loyd
9:30
dropped Mary off looks a little bit
9:35
different because they have built this
9:37
structure but you can see the crossover
9:40
walkway in the movie and that's where he
9:47
had his tearful departure I hate
9:50
goodbyes
9:52
how about a hug and this is a spot where
9:55
he wrecked the limo right there goodbye
9:59
my love I was a little bit rushed on
10:01
those airport shots because I went
10:03
inside before I got the exterior shots
10:05
tried finding the escalator where he
10:07
said move it or lose it sister and I was
10:10
kind of like in there too long and the
10:12
employees on security were looking at me
10:14
weird
10:14
so the outdoor shots I got really
10:17
hurriedly so if they don't line up
10:19
perfectly that's why two spots remaining
10:22
total distance from here to there about
10:25
35 miles in a little traffic sunlight is
10:30
burning away oh man
10:34
the building is still here in case you
10:37
don't remember what this is wanna cheat
10:40
up and I'll tell you this was Dante's
10:42
Inferno probably one of the funniest
10:44
scenes in the film well it's hard to
10:46
pick the funniest scenes but nothing
10:49
beats Jim Carrey when he smashes the
10:52
ketchup and mustard on the table now I
10:54
don't know for certain but I am pretty
10:58
sure
11:00
that the scene was filmed inside this
11:04
actual building and if it was filmed
11:06
inside here the counter they would have
11:07
been eating at would be right there and
11:10
remember the blinds that Jim Carrey
11:12
tangulls his feet up in they would have
11:14
been right here hanging on the other
11:15
side of the door and right on the ground
11:17
right inside there is where they fed the
11:19
guy the rat poison pills are good
11:29
check please and just to clarify the
11:29
exterior is 100% definitely were filmed
11:32
at this spot when I mentioned the
11:33
interiors sometimes when they film a
11:35
movie they film it on a soundstage in
11:37
case you were confused about that but I
11:39
think they filmed inside there I really
11:42
do that's a cool mural big cowboy there
11:45
my side of the wall the last spot has
11:48
been a subject of debate for years about
11:51
where the actual location is there are
11:53
three different places in question and I
11:56
think where I'm heading is the accurate
12:00
one
12:00
cross your fingers could it be could it
12:04
be right here I think this is it
12:06
the elusive big gulp scene
12:09
this used to be a 7-eleven even the
12:11
address is the same 3 0 8 7 that's it
12:17
Jim Carrey walks out of there with some
12:19
supplies the thing that really gives it
12:21
away though is this shot over the hood
12:23
of the shaggin wagon look on the far
12:26
left Kissel sales and service that
12:30
building doesn't lie
12:31
this is the spot big gulps huh well see
12:36
you later
