1:44
bacterium is that is that jelly or
1:47
bloody I think it's jelly it's purple
1:49
and I I um see I was going to introduce
1:52
you because right over here was a
1:53
haunted called ter on Church Street and
1:56
you are a self-proclaimed offici anado
1:58
not
2:01
you're giving me titles like that that's
2:03
that's way too much me you're like oh
2:05
he's up here yeah you are a fan a
2:08
proverbial proverbial with
2:11
a knowledge when it comes to haunted
2:14
attractions and the Halloween season but
2:16
you progress the Halloween season all
2:19
through your lifetime that's kind of I
2:21
never got to see this though I never got
2:22
to see this right here was a fantastic
2:25
place you can Google the information
2:26
called Terror on Church Street and I'm
2:29
sure all of your friends who are also
2:32
into Old School old school attractions
2:36
remember that place and they probably
2:37
spend some Yarns and tell some stories
2:39
about that particular place was the like
2:42
one of the biggest things here like it
2:43
there was a big giant SPID on the wall
2:45
did you already talk about that or no no
2:47
I did not I think it actually was torn
2:49
down I think part of it burned I could
2:51
be incorrect or maybe when people left
2:53
the place they were so afraid their
2:55
hearts felt like they were burned and on
2:57
fire and that's what kind of second
3:00
incarnation of the Indiana Jones Trilogy
3:02
when the guy rips out his
3:03
heart was it actually on fire well yeah
3:07
know when he when he dumps into the the
3:08
into the pit guy's
3:11
like and then he and then he sets on
3:13
fire and he exactly that's what happened
3:16
on there was a lot of probably things
3:17
that happened a lot of people complained
3:18
about their hearts Ablaze and now there
3:21
is no terar on Church Street and there
3:24
is still Church Street which people
3:25
drive down that's what we're walking
3:27
down now at the moment but this used to
3:29
be a thriving
3:32
entrepreneurial bucket of goodness if
3:35
you will for the tourist industry here
3:36
in Orlando it's nowhere near as popular
3:40
as it once was this was actually the
3:42
focal point of downtown Orlando
3:45
nighttime tourism this is Church Street
3:49
Station and it stretches right here from
3:51
Orange Avenue and goes all the way up to
3:54
I4 when you're driving down Interstate 4
3:58
depending on which way you're driving
3:59
look over to the side of the road you
4:01
can actually see Church Street and
4:03
there's still a lot of businesses open
4:05
there's a lot of people bringing food in
4:07
bringing drinks and there's a lot of
4:09
open breweries is that the same company
4:11
that's from Alien without the L like
4:14
that's that's a setup to alien right
4:16
there game over man game over I never
4:19
did the intro it's my second channel
4:20
daily Vlog channel it's the
4:23
daily different different Cadence for
4:26
the daily woo today but it's the daily
4:28
woo running in to Scott I pick up bread
4:33
off the side of the road infested with
4:35
hair and blood you I'm pretty sure that
4:37
was jelly I'm I'm going to like am I
4:40
going for the oh look it's a scary place
4:42
and this is the internet this is the
4:44
internet nothing is true here I Tred to
4:47
keep a degree of truth but you have to
4:49
overemphasize some things to make things
4:51
more exciting I don't use CGI in these
4:54
Vlogs I have to overemphasize first
4:56
second and third Star Wars where it's
4:58
all Shan the green screen well that was
5:00
just the ones that came back later when
5:03
they put them back in the theaters later
5:04
we don't like to talk about oh no oh
5:06
we're not talking about we're not
5:07
talking about those versions of talk
5:09
about the original OG about the ones
5:11
that came out in the in the 1990s at I
5:13
do not need to to stifen your Star Wars
5:16
talk but look at that Church Street
5:20
Market that sign has been there for a
5:22
while in fact if you look very closely
5:24
to it where it says Church Street below
5:27
it there's a sign that says market and
5:29
the M the A and the r are completely
5:33
burned out and the front facings of them
5:35
have been removed so now it's just
5:37
Church Street
5:39
kit not kit from Night Rider but kit
5:42
Church Street kit and this has been here
5:45
for ages and ages as you can see it's
5:48
still used and it is still a popular
5:50
area for people out here at night and
5:53
people during the day walking their dogs
5:55
your face is very creepy Scott when
5:57
doing that trying to show the dog walk
5:59
walking in a non creepy fashion but this
6:02
is chck Street Station a lot has
6:06
changed over the years I moved to St
6:08
Cloud in 1991 that's about 30 minutes 30
6:12
miles from Orlando Florida and when I
6:15
moved there in ' 91 when I would come up
6:17
to Orlando as a teenager into my late
6:20
teen years to visit The Nightlife of
6:23
Orlando none of these buildings were
6:25
here these are like Apartments now
6:26
called 55 West none of this was actually
6:29
here here nor was that rusty
6:33
spoon that's kind of like a horror film
6:35
too because a lot of people say it's
6:37
more dangerous to get stabbed with a
6:39
rusty spoon than a clean you get get un
6:43
Rusty knife all of you and like is that
6:46
get how you get ganger I'm not a doctor
6:48
I'm not a medical professional but if
6:50
someone came after me with a rusty scool
6:52
was like I want to scoop out your eye
6:53
I'd be like whoa about your eye yeah
6:55
because what kind of dreams do you have
6:57
at night maybe maybe he's an ice cream
7:00
like like that could be the setup to a
7:02
movie this called there's already been a
7:03
movie called Ice Cream Man what do
7:06
brother in Ron Howard Ron Howard's
7:08
brother anybody know Ron Howard's
7:10
brother's name and how many movies has
7:12
he been in a million less or more than
7:15
200 I would say more I'm going to say
7:17
more than anybody know Ron Howard's
7:19
Brothers the less attractive of the
7:23
Howard I'm going say Clan but the
7:25
brothers but he makes more money in
7:28
cameo that Ron Howard is the most
7:31
attractive man in the world unless
7:32
you're listening Ron Howard because I'd
7:34
love to be in one of your movies and you
7:35
make a movie called the rusty spoon and
7:36
it could be that a guy comes out sound
7:38
garden song I'm going to break that
7:40
rusty
7:42
spoon that's a actually Johnny Cash
7:44
Johnny
7:46

8:37
savior of of Orlando uh so what it does
8:40

Orlando to the South part which is that
8:45
way that way that would be North be
8:47
North northish not technically exactly
8:51
North but it's some end right now in

9:21
ages and ages and ages and ages I'm not
9:23

9:25
they have refurbished it actually looks
9:27
pretty amazing in fact we should
9:29
actually walk over there go in there see
9:31
I was distracted by the Light Rail
9:34
excitement the light rail Sunil sun rail
9:37
same thing different it comes from the
9:39
well the sun is what emanates the Rays
9:41
of light what is a light rail heard is
9:44
that like like a a Shaker it's not a
9:47
mono rail pushing it but it's not a
9:49
light rail it's a sun rail but who's the
9:52
father of the sun rail good speaking of
9:56
Star Wars rail I am your father he
10:01

10:28
stuff see they're doing a lot of work in
10:28

10:29
and this is the old train station look
10:31
at
10:32
this the old train
10:39
station man look at the banisters look
10:39
at the
10:40
chandeliers look at this Scott look at
10:43
this come in this is Orlando history
10:47
right in front of sorry I did not mean
10:48
to Nestle your ear luckily this was not
10:50
a rusty spoon oh my gosh my eye would
10:52
have be gone and then then you you're
10:54
really disturbed by my finger touching
10:56
your ear when you picked up the most
10:58
Garg L nasty sandwich I've ever seen in
11:03
my life you're holding the most
11:05
disgusting thing ever and my tip of my
11:07
finger is disturbing to you that's a
11:09
very interesting who what do you think
11:11
these
11:12
are that's where they brought the
11:15
supplies from North America to South
11:17
America these look these look actually
11:19
very old look at the wheels on
11:22
this got some tread left it's still good
11:26
are very old wheels in the sky keeps on
11:28
turning I don't know where I'm going to
11:30
be tomorrow but hopefully people
11:31
subscribe and they can find out who
11:33
knows what artist sang that song Wheel
11:36
in the Sky keeps on
11:39
turning I don't know where who does
11:42
honestly you have something mentally
11:44
wrong with you if you have no earthly
11:46
clue where you're going to be tomorrow I
11:48
travel a lot but I still have a
11:50
generalization an idea of normally where
11:54
I'm going to be tomorrow so that's
11:57
confusing I can understand maybe a
11:58
portion of of the year if you're a
12:01
vagrant traveler kind of like I am you
12:03
might not know where you're going to be
12:04
a portion of the time but not every day
12:07
some days you do know where you're going
12:09
to be have goals in your life the next
12:11
day you got to have goals you're trying
12:12
to show me something no I'm not I'm just
12:13
rubbing this because I it like I feel
12:16
like touching everything that is old
12:17
school look at that is old school you
12:21
can actually tell that at there another
12:23
train station here on the other side of
12:25
town where they shot part of Ernest
12:27
Saves Christmas and this looks like very
12:29
similar to the original old school
12:32
probably 50s and 60s architecture of a
12:35
wood bench you know there were smaller
12:37
back then so that's thing that's why
12:38
they sit like this so they can relax and
12:40
read the paper did you hear what
12:42
happened in the paper they said the
12:44
other guy said oh no I did not hear what
12:46
happened in the paper and it's
12:49
said you're just not going to believe it
12:52
having a jovial time yeah talking about
12:55
the old times of and we are having a oh
12:57
wait I was going to say we're having a
12:59
jovial time but I got way more excited
13:02
by this this is like a display case not
13:04
that for a movie poster but you could
13:06
actually put a human torso in there if
13:09
we could get inside there you could be
13:11
on display you could display yourself to
13:14
all the people that are walking by Chang
13:16
this into like the red light district
13:18
really quick it's called the train
13:19
station you see and
13:21
everyone just keep on go and you know
13:23
you honk the horn that's that's pulling
13:25
like when the train comes by oh look
13:27
it's the red light district and the guy
13:29
train speed by everyone's going to see
13:32
you barely out of the corner of their
13:34
peripheral vision there's Scott yukin
13:36
holding a
13:38
sandwich but I was going to pinpoint out
13:40
this rusted awning that's up there
13:43
that's actually really cool very old
13:46
school there's still a little bit more
13:47
to show you we should walk to the very
13:49
end we're giving them a whole tour of
13:51
the Old Church Street Station which
13:53
hopefully one day will return to its
13:56
Glory the thing is there's a lot of
13:58
other in do you think Church Street
14:00
Station nightlife is not what it once
14:03
was do you have any assumptions on that
14:05
exactly okay so when Church Street first
14:09
came up there was no Disney right there
14:11
was Disney but it was at the very
14:13
beginning Disney came in 71 Kingdom but
14:16
there was no Disney Night Life yeah
14:17
there was just Magic Kingdom there was
14:19
no Epcot so this was a place where you
14:21
would go have fun go see stuff that you
14:24
can't do anywhere else there's no other
14:27
place you can go that has a hotted
14:29
attraction right down here exact exactly
14:31
it's got this theme like an old town
14:34
like some other place I've been to once
14:36
before that is them like it's whole town
14:38
so basically you're saying that Church
14:40
Street I'm putting words in your mouth
14:42
Church Street Station PVE the way for
14:45
Orlando area nightlife attractions well
14:48
I mean you also okay if you're going to
14:51
have if you're going to have a a a a a
14:53
place where people live a common ground
14:56
you've got to have places for people to
14:58
entertain themselves at night some
14:59
people like to go out drinking this is
15:01
the alternative to going to a theme park
15:03
very very true but for some people this
15:07
is the theme park look at this this is
15:09
the famous shot you see in all the old
15:11
brochures Church Street Station you
15:15
should come over here and get a picture
15:16
real quick just stand stand kind of
15:19
right here there's no cars coming we
15:20
have to take a default here stand kind
15:22
of in that there's a car there's a car
15:24
coming get out of the road get out of
15:25
the road normally they block this off we
15:28
could probably do it from here here here
15:30
stand as close to the the speeding
15:32
traffic as possible without being
15:34
tarnished in the elbow just kind of
15:36
stand here let's get a shot just kind of
15:39
do like an epic pose like that yeah no
15:43
no not like your not like your dropping
15:45
a deuce or using all right just a happy
15:49
pose excellent that was good wonderful
15:53
very good Scott yuken thank you very
15:54
much so this is actually what you saw in
15:56
all the old promotional materials this
15:59
was the mecca of nighlife in Orlando say
16:03
late ' 80s early '90s probably until 96
16:07
97 maybe even the turn of the century
16:10
they probably had one doozy of a
16:12
millennium party out here Prince was
16:15
probably not out here singing 1999 but
16:18
it was probably close to that level
16:21
there's a walkway across
16:24
there Lots Chang it's weird seeing these
16:27
buildings in the frame
16:40
though this is an original sign there
16:40
used to actually be an arcade in here
16:42
and look at the glasswork
16:46
Street
17:00
Station whoa look at this
17:00
that is incredible look at that glass
17:02
work stained glass and look at
17:06
that wow here's the old bumby arcade
17:10
bumby Emporium not the bumby
17:18
arcade this is awesome your Sho sh get
17:18
your shoe shines here there's no telling
17:19
how old this
17:21
is place your feet right there sit up in
17:25
here get the old shoes oh yeah you got
17:28
them got to polish them off here you
17:30
know these are you probably do not want
17:32
to polish tennis shoes I guess you could
17:35
look there's more shoe shine places in
17:37
there look at this I think those are
17:38
just chairs oh those are just regular
17:40
chairs but they're pretty fantastic
17:42
looking look at
17:50
this kind of looks like the shoe shine
17:50
chairs but not do not be deceived to
17:52
confuse me about like when I see this
17:54
architecture I know this is pre like
17:56
supposed to be pre the 30s this kind of
17:58
thing but it looks like the old Atari to
18:00
me cuz everything was made out of wood
18:02
back then and this is kind of it's all
18:04
wood let's go for that solid
18:08
wood good to see that some of this still
18:10
exists look at
18:13
this that is old school were you being a
18:17
gentleman and holding the door well
18:19
that's man that's what that's that's
18:20
very OD that's what they did back in the
18:22
day back when Church treat was thriving
18:25
so it's good that you're harnessing your
18:27
gentlemanly skills with the fire a
18:29
blazing do you think that's a that's a a
18:31
good use of fuel it's it's daytime you
18:34
can smell it do you smell that smell it
18:37
and here's a little trivia question for
18:38
you okay do you know what those little
18:40
stabbing pokers are directly to the
18:43
right and to the left that is not a
18:45
recreation of Marty Moose what exactly
18:48
are those poers to the left and to the
18:50
right and why are they there you talking
18:52
to me no no I'm talking to you I'm
18:54
talking to them whoever wants to answer
18:56
first all right it's some second a
18:57
Jeopardy Tri who's going to know the
18:59
answer first Birds yes Birds turn Birds
19:03
perch up there and they do not want
19:06
Birds perching up there so that's their
19:07
way of deterring the birds you feed the
19:10
birds nasty disgusting sandwiches that
19:12
you would never eat or maybe you would
19:14
eat if the camera wasn't rolling I don't
19:16
think so Church Street does not want
19:19
birds out here festooning themselves up
19:22
there oh my gosh look at this stained
19:25
glass I am infatuated with stained glass
19:28
this is the Cheyenne Saloon which I
19:31
think has been called the Cheyenne
19:32
Saloon for quite some time look at this
19:39
place
19:39
wow wow I need to come in here that is
19:43
pretty amazing I do not know if the door
19:46
is open the door is locked we cannot get
19:50
in there so that's basically the end of
19:51
Church Street that is the new Orlando is
19:54
it called the Orlando arena no it's the
19:57
uh Amway the Amway Ena Arena okay the
20:01
Amway arena the old one was about a mile
20:04
or two away they imploded it I did a
20:06
video where I actually got inside of
20:07
there before it was gone which is really
20:09
awesome but if you keep going this way
20:11
you pass through Church Street at the
20:13
crossroads what is this Crossroads
20:15
called no idea I4 is right up there you
20:19
keep walking that's the new Orlando
20:22
Amway Center Arena we should try to get
20:26
in there as well go can we walk across
20:35
well we're walking across the road Scott
20:35
whether you like it or not this
20:38
actually has some really cool stairwells
20:40
inside there used to be a bunch of shops
20:42
but I think it's actually closed to the
20:44
general public no no we're going this
20:46
way we're going we're going this way I
20:48
was just trying to cross this road
20:49
excuse
20:57
me there's actually been a couple movies
20:58
low budget movies one that actually
21:00
ended up becoming a cult
21:02
classic to say it disregard that strike
21:05
that from the jury does anyone know the
21:07
name of the movie that's called the
21:08
Miami Connection that Scott already gave
21:10
away that was filmed in Orlando one of
21:13
the scenes one of the major fight scen
21:14
was filmed right here I didn't want to
21:16
mention that because one day I'm going
21:17
to do the filming location it God so
21:19
disregard what is just said rewind it
21:21
and then fast forward to this point 21
21:23
minutes and 23 seconds disregard the
21:25
last 30 seconds of this Vlog rewind okay
21:28
that has been stricken from the memory
21:31
the fight scene from Miami Connection
21:34
did not happen right here we should try
21:36
to get inside here there's so many good
21:38
parts in that movie it is a great movie
21:41
we're not talking about that we're not
21:43

21:48
a party in here and my party I a bunch
21:51

21:58
night time activity place it is still

22:04
consider this place abandoned because it
22:05
is very well kept up very nice you can

see Church Street station sign with
22:10
about 318 buzzards floating over the top
22:15

22:19
are there so many birds of prey up there
22:23

22:30
to be the mecca the goto default
22:33
nighttime activ activity area in Orlando

the bumby block made in 1886 look at
22:42
