0:02 it's almost as if they're promoting the
0:02 no
0:03 trespassing like it was some sort of
0:05 sale like a business sale they have a
0:07 banner saying no
0:09 trespassing never seen that before
0:11 welcome everyone Adam the woo here
0:14 leaving Indiana today in fact I'm in
0:16 rout right now I just have to get you
0:19 guys situated here before I start the
0:22 Vlog I should probably put my van in
0:24 part it's my second channel daily Vlog
0:27 channel it's
0:39 someone yesterday left a comment saying
0:39 that they were going to unsubscribe or
0:41 they did unsubscribe because they do not
0:44 like the crushing of the water bottle
0:45 since they're unsubscribed they're not
0:47 watching this Vlog anymore
0:50 so
0:52 it's the daily W whoa
1:38 whoa is that a
1:38 deer oh it's fake thought it was real
1:42 for a
1:43 second Wheel of Fortune I like to buy a
1:48 vowel Pat according to the sign on the
1:50 door no pets are allowed but I find that
1:52 very confusing because this sign says
1:56 pets welcome so are they welcome or are
2:00 they not allowed make up your mind rest
2:10 area visit the hooer
2:10 gym don't mind if I
2:13 do oh my gosh there it is when I think
2:17 of movies that are based on sports that
2:19 I am fans of a few come to mind hooers
2:22 being number one F the dreams being
2:24 number two the natural being number
2:27 three those are probably my top three
2:30 favorite sport films and I did the
2:33 filming locations of hooers 5 years ago
2:36 on the Adam the woo Channel back before
2:38 I even really knew how to film or put
2:40 stuff together or edit or document
2:42 things correctly not that I really know
2:44 what I'm doing now but back then I was
2:46 less informed on the subject matter and
2:49 now I'm returning to the hooer gy this
2:52 is awesome and it's open right now
3:31 this is pretty crazy to be sitting in
3:33 the gym from
3:35 poers I love that movie if you've never
3:37 seen it do yourself a
3:39 favor check it
3:50 out there's one scene in the movie that
3:50 always resonates in my head and it was
3:53 filmed through this door
3:57 downstairs I'm going to go down here
4:21 same this is the locker room used in the
4:21 movie where they were saying the prayer
4:23 before they went upstairs to play a
4:25 pivotal basketball game
4:33 this is awesome seriously this is like
4:33 hollowed sports movie history ground
4:37 right here and here on the chalkboard
4:39 they have some of the famous lines from
4:41 the movie of course Jimmy Chitwood said
4:44 I'll make it and one of my favorite
4:46 lines was when Jean Hackman's character
4:49 coach Dale said welcome to Indiana
4:52 basketball this is blowing my mind
4:53 because Jean Hackman walked up these
4:56 exact stairs and before he opened that
4:58 door to to go out into his first
5:01 coaching
5:02 experience the door was closed and he
5:05 said welcome to Indiana
5:24 airball that was pretty cool I love that
5:24 movie I get a little choked up every
5:26 time I see it especially when you walk
5:28 through the doors of the gym in fact the
5:31 guy that works in there was telling me
5:33 that a lot of times grown men like me
5:36 will go in the gym and they'll just sit
5:37 there and just stare at the court and
5:40 they'll get tears in their eyes because
5:42 it's such a dramatic movie and it's part
5:43 of you know it's part of their youth and
5:45 their childhood or memories in their
5:47 mind it's crazy how a film can
5:51 infiltrate your head that way and your
5:52 heart that way and for a lot of people
5:55 hoers did that those are some humongous
6:00 candles look at those things according
6:02 to this sign train rides are $3 but I
6:05 don't think this train track has been
6:08 operational in a long time there's grass
6:10 growing through it they had these little
6:12 cylinder yellow Spears like all the way
6:16 around it I don't think it's open
6:18 anymore as I was pulling in here I was
6:20 really Blown Away by those large candles
6:23 I had no idea those were going to pale
6:25 in
6:26 comparison to this one look at this
6:29 thing this is the world's largest candle
6:33 according to the internet anyway do not
6:35 throw things into the pen because
6:39 then you would injure that little
6:42 creature what is that thing I mean for
6:44 real look at the size of that the guy
6:46 walking underneath it kind of gives a
6:48 comparison on how large that candle
6:50 really
6:52 is lot of cool murals in this town on
6:55 the side of these buildings I like this
6:56 one there's a fire in the upstairs and
6:59 the are down at the bottom catching This
7:01 Woman's cat protect the cat do not let
7:05 the cat fall onto the ground save the
7:08 cat save him and check out the top up
7:11 there I think the name of that photo was
7:14 unconditional surrender it was a sailor
7:17 I think it was in New York City who
7:18 randomly took a woman and kissed her
7:21 without her permission and the
7:23 photographer took the picture and it
7:25 became world famous and after the
7:27 picture was taken the woman slapped the
7:28 man
7:30 but the the photo and the kiss lives on
7:35 infamy oh there it is welcome to
7:45 Ohio I pulled off onto one of these old
7:45 country side roads and there's this very
7:48 unusual thing right up here and I hope I
7:50 don't miss it it's a rock that has a
7:53 giant footprint in it almost like some
7:55 kind of gargantuan creature set foot
7:59 into the concrete and just left it and
8:02 it's only a few feet off the side of
8:03 this road this should be interesting
8:06 well I found the sign and I also
8:09 found where the old abandoned gas
8:12 station used to
8:14 be and the only thing I can figure that
8:17 resembles footprint Rock would be this
8:21 slab right
8:24 here what do you think do you think this
8:27 resembles a footprint I guess it kind of
8:30 does it almost looks like a dinosaur
8:32 footprint stomped down or maybe they're
8:36 considering this to be the footprint you
8:39 put your foot right
8:42 here I don't know I don't know about
8:46 that one I you know what I guess when
8:48 you back up a little bit it really does
8:50 look like a footprint some of the
8:52 stories of this go back for generations
8:54 and some say if you set your foot inside
8:57 there you will go back in time time to
9:00 back when the gas station that is now
9:01 destroyed
9:03 existed I don't know if that's true or
9:05 not but that's what they say here is
9:07 some sort of security officer behind me
9:11 either that or maybe he's curious about
9:12 the footprint Rock too let's just hope
9:15 that's what that
9:23 is you comfortable up there that's right
9:23 that's right I am I'm here come on I'm
9:25 comfortable right here that's one way to
9:28 carry a bicycle
9:29 just hang it out the window Miamisburg
9:33 Mound
9:34 Park wonder what that is check out the
9:38 size of that
9:39 thing look at
9:53 is after doing a little quick research
9:53 online I have discovered that this is a
9:56 65 ft tall prehist historic Indian
10:01 burial ground one of the
10:04 largest this side of the Mississippi
10:07 River in 1869 they did an excavation of
10:10 the
10:11 mound and it contained a bark covered
10:16 skeleton and a vault 28 ft lower that
10:20 was surrounded by logs but without a
10:23 barial along the side of the vertical
10:25 shaft were found various layers of ashes
10:28 and St
10:30 Stone implying that the mound was built
10:32 in several
10:34 stages the entire construction however
10:37 has never been
10:40 systematically excavated how many bodies
10:43 do you think are buried under this
10:51 thing and if you really wanted to you
10:51 could put your body between this fence
10:55 and this fence and step onto the Indian
10:58 barrier ground itself I'm standing on
11:01 the Indian burial
11:04 ground isn't that what happened in
11:06 polter guys that had something to do
11:09 with an Indian burial ground right all
11:11 right enough of that I'm not going any
11:13 further in there I'm going to stay on
11:15 I'm going to stay on the beaten path
11:17 this time I made it to the top there's a
11:19 golf course right down there as well you
11:23 can get a pretty good view of the
11:26 landscape and there's this
11:29 rock structure on top of the mound in
11:33 these bent
11:34 back bars almost like someone was trying
11:37 to
11:39 escape and the mound has been here so
11:41 long you can find old photos of it when
11:44 it still had trees before the city of
11:47 Miamisburg cut the trees down look at
11:50 this here's a photo of a Boy Scout Troop
11:53 from
11:54 1930 just hanging out on the mound I'm
11:58 not the only one with interest in going
11:59 to the top there's actually a woman with
12:01 her son who climbed to the top as well
12:03 and you know what I'm going to do now
12:04 I'm going to take the Drone out and fly
12:06 it and get a bird's eye view cuz it's
12:08 not every day you come across and you
12:10 see an Indian burial ground in person
12:14 out of all the years I've been on this
12:15 Earth I have never climbed or seen a
12:19 burial
12:20 ground pretty crazy I'm in route now to
12:23 stopped by a friend of mine's house that
12:24 I haven't seen in a few years back in
12:26 2003 I was in a band with him called
12:29 Alias Clark I mentioned it in former
12:31 Vlogs and I think the album's still
12:33 available on iTunes but he lives in Ohio
12:37 and I'm passing very close to his house
12:39 so I'm going to stop off and say hello
12:41 so this is Jim Jim was the singer in
12:43 Alias Clark and this is his little music
12:47 room basement and he's found some old
12:49 school photos here which I don't know if
12:51 they would be incriminating but what the
12:55 heck were we thinking
13:01 should I keep perusing through these are
13:02 these are these safe for video there's
13:04 nothing too crazy in there that must be
13:06 me with the bear head on yeah where did
13:08 it even come from I don't I don't even
13:11 know wow I was so young then see we were
13:13 trying to do some kind of edgy band
13:16 photo and this is what we came up look
13:18 at this that doesn't even look like me
13:20 so basically these were going to be
13:21 promo shots we were going to use either
13:22 for a CD cover but I think I think Jim
13:25 you just kept these just kind of for
13:26 your own personal preference right for
13:27 your own personal use and that's
13:29 basically yeah that's it right there
13:31 that was what that was the one we ended
13:32 up using and these are the
13:34 outtakes oh man people are going to hold
13:36 these against me I know check me out
13:38 there on the commode reading the Orlando
13:47 Weekly look at that Sunset over there
13:47 holy
13:48 cow looks
13:51 amazing ah Ohio Sunset looking pretty
