TDW 1710 - This Is Harder Than It Looks !

0:02 welcome everyone Adam the wooo here

0:02 coming to you from Illinois just on the

0:03 Kentucky State Line today I'm going to

0:06 try to cover a lot of ground it's my

0:10 second channel daily Vlog channel it's

0:12 the daily woo our first stop this remote

0:17 little cemetery and I was actually very

0:19 surprised to find out that he is buried

0:22 here he was a convicted murderer with a

0:26 very high IQ his name was Robert

0:31 Stroud you might know him through the

0:34 history books as the famous bird man of

0:39 Alcatraz and as The Story Goes when he

0:42 was incarcerated he pretty much took no

0:44 crap from anyone this included the

0:47 inmates and the guards he was definitely

0:50 a bit of a Rebel Rouser he was portrayed

0:53 by Bert Lancaster in a 1962 film about

0:58 himself but all always remember the

1:01 mention that Phil Hartman gives him and

1:04 So I Married an Axe

1:13 Murderer still surprised

1:13 that he's buried here in elois and even

1:16 though he was a hardened criminal he is

1:18 very revered in the world of studying of

1:21 birds he went on to cure even some

1:24 diseases and write some books on the

1:26 subject matter crossing over the Ohio

1:28 River again and back on this fantastic

1:33 Bridge which means I'm going back into

1:36 Kentucky supposed to get cold over the

1:38 next couple of days and while I love

1:41 chilly and cold

1:43 weather Large Marge does not and I do

1:46 not want the pipes to freeze originally

1:49 I had planned on heading a little more

1:52 Northern but there is a cold front

1:54 coming in so I've had to reroute my

1:57 plans a little bit

2:00 oh

2:01 yeah that's

2:03 warm that is warm getting off the

2:06 interstate and on the back

2:09 roads Kentucky

2:12 style what you up to guys just hanging

2:16 out just hanging out up there on that

2:18 little

2:20 Hill all

2:22 right catch you later someone's Old

2:25 Homestead up there

2:33 storm clouds rolling in very

2:33 slowly as well okay that sign says 12

2:36 foot one bridge ahead I think I'm going

2:38 to do a little detour and go this way

2:42 that's going to cut it really close old

2:45 sonoko gas

2:47 station and the

2:50 sign hanging in there barely but hanging

2:53 in there this is the town of

2:55 Princeton there's the old theater there

2:57 Capital definitely has the small town

3:00 Vibe going on but also looks to be

3:03 slightly

3:04 thriving which you really don't see too

3:07 often off in the field are some colored

3:11 Flags you look

3:21 closely orange yellow

3:21 green I wonder what the

3:23 significance of those markers Are Holy

3:27 crud are we going to make it through

3:28 here

3:30 whoa this is

3:37 narrow okay success this is all Farmland

3:37 as far as the ey can

3:39 see I don't think old man Peabody owns

3:43 any of it I believe my Doc Brown

3:46 impression is slowly turning into

3:49 JFK used to be more of a sein feldy I

3:53 think it's becoming kind of more of a a

3:55 really bad JFK impression instead of

3:58 Chris Lloyd I'm in an area now where my

4:01 cell phone provider does not have

4:02 service it's a graveyard over there good

4:05 thing I have some gas in the tank

4:07 because this station completely out but

4:10 they do have free firewood slabs though

4:13 if you need them wonder how long this

4:14 Chevy c65 truck has been sitting out

4:18 here it's pretty rusted out and the

4:21 windows windows are slightly shattered

4:24 recently someone may have tried to get

4:25 that thing started because on the ground

4:27 are some tools needle no those pliers

4:30 there some regular other pliers there

4:33 and some remnants of an election sign

4:36 buried there in the foliage no

4:41 way was not expecting to see an

4:44 advertisement for Rock City this far

4:46 away from Chattanooga that is awesome

4:51 wow check this out

5:06 Schoolhouse pretty cool it's a very

5:06 unusual name for a

5:09 place sinking

5:12 Fork Consolidated School established

5:16 1941 some air conditioner units there

5:20 couple broken windows but other than

5:22 that it's in pretty good shape sealed up

5:24 pretty good though lots of

5:28 chains on the door

5:40 balloon decorations drawn on the walls

5:40 I'm kind of surprised to see that light

5:43 on and take a look at

5:46 this this metal compartment that you

5:49 open look at the

5:51 name Majestic

6:08 there's an antenna around back in this

6:08 little Courtyard

6:10 area and then even farther

6:13 back on the property you can

6:17 see the baseball field used to be back

6:20 there

6:23 and basketball

6:25 hoops off in the distance part of me

6:28 wonders where they got enough students

6:30 from the surrounding

6:32 areas to attend that school I'm guessing

6:35 it probably was the only School in this

6:38 region in all ages went there currently

6:41 heading into

6:44 Hopkinsville literary Park was erected

6:47 in the belief that the lofty ideals and

6:50 standards of gentility that prevailed in

6:54 Camelot can be renewed on the campus of

6:57 Hopkinsville

6:59 Community

7:01 College and it is kind of bizarre to me

7:06 to see The Sword in the

7:09 Stone without a

7:11 backdrop of a Disney

7:14 Carousel that is awesome maybe I will

7:17 have better luck

7:19 here crossing my

7:22 fingers I'm going to do it it's

7:24 happening right

7:25 now come

7:27 out no oh that thing is wedged in there

7:32 what the heck man it won't

7:42 budge fail there's even a place for the

7:42 Knights of the Round T you can Feast

7:45 with King Arthur

7:47 himself wonder what time dinner is

7:49 served cuz I I'm getting a little hungry

7:52 and if you stand up on the concrete

7:54 pillars you will notice that there is an

7:57 emblem here only the brave are allowed

8:02 to sit around this table or in my case

8:06 stand I know putting your elbows on the

8:09 table is not proper but is standing on

8:11 the seat that that's probably you know

8:12 what I'm going to get down King Arthur

8:14 would not be happy with me and at the

8:16 bottom of the amphitheater it looks like

8:19 there is a play happening as we speak

8:23 see if we can get up a little bit

8:26 closer and see what's going on

8:31 I don't don't don't mind me I don't want

8:32 to disturb you I just wanted I just

8:34 wanted to get a up close view here this

8:37 was the Muse of

8:41 tragedy and it was created in memory of

8:44 Rachel Shelton this replica has seen a

8:47 little bit of damage I'm thinking

8:49 because of high winds in fact that light

8:52 pole there has been

8:59 uprooted the clouds in the background

8:59 give a little indication that there

9:01 might be another

9:02 storm on the horizon as well I'm still

9:05 bummed out I couldn't get this thing out

9:07 of the stone I've tried it at Disney

9:08 World I've tried it at Disneyland I've

9:10 tried it here in Kentucky I always fail

9:13 I even had better leverage too I got on

9:15 top of it I had much better leverage

9:17 than I do on Disney property

9:19 still I couldn't do it I couldn't what

9:22 the heck is wrong with me and that

9:24 sucker's been in there since

9:27 1974 42 years the year I was born who

9:31 will best who will best the stone who

9:34 will be the one to conquer the stone

9:37 will it be you my

9:39 friends will it be you you know what

9:43 there is one man who can do it that's

9:47 right that's right lead me to it come on

9:49 take me

9:58 there come on stick a knife in me look

9:58 into my eyes see what's out there he's

10:01 been out it for like an hour I don't

10:02 think he's going to do

10:11 it well he didn't do it

10:11 either I don't know what was going on

10:13 over there I'm with you I'm thinking

10:15 maybe it was rigged yeah that's right

10:18 this is the Riverside

10:20 Cemetery and

10:22 somewhere in here is the final resting

10:26 place of a very interesting man

10:39 his last name is case or maybe it's KC c

10:39 a y c e but these are not his

10:43 headstones but I think I might be in the

10:46 right

10:48 area oh there it is right there they

10:51 have placed a sign above it for people

10:54 like me who have trouble finding it

10:56 because this property is

11:00 massive Edgar

11:03 Casey I think I'm pronouncing that right

11:05 it might be case he was a famous psychic

11:09 and he is the one that is credited with

11:12 saying that California would one day

11:15 slide off into the ocean which a lot of

11:18 people say that's going to happen just a

11:20 matter of time I don't know if that's

11:22 true or not but according to the

11:25 internet he is the one who originally

11:28 came up with that idea but he also said

11:31 that a ray a laser Ray would also come

11:35 from Atlantis in the '

11:38 50s and Destroy something that never

11:41 came to fruition but his grave is

11:46 here Edgar

11:49 Casey rest in peace the death ray from

11:52 Atlantis is an interesting topic I'm

11:54 going to have to dig a little deeper

11:56 into that he was very popular and he had

11:58 a lot of follow followers and as you can

12:00 see a lot of people have left flowers on

12:02 his gravestone so still to this day

12:05 people remember him and come to pay

12:08 their respects and as I'm exiting I'm

12:10 noticing the sign they have erected for

12:12 him stating he was a humble and

12:14 religious man and never profited from

12:17 his predictions he was born here or near

12:21 here in 1877 but he died in Virginia and

12:24 his body was moved here and buried
