TDW 1536 - Have We Become The Truman Show ?

0:24 da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da welcome everyone

0:24 man that was kind of semi sorta operatic

0:28 got some coffee

0:29 well 3/4 coffee the rest milk it's my

0:34 second channel daily vlog channel it's

0:37 the daily what's going on up here

0:55 that is beautiful I almost forgot how

0:55 pretty Florida is we are entering a

0:58 little beach community by the name of

0:59 seaside in 1998 there was an incredible

1:02 movie filmed right here in this town by

1:05 the name of The Truman Show it was

1:07 directed by a guy named Peter Weir who

1:08 did not only Dead Poets Society but also

1:11 one of my all-time favorite movies the

1:13 Mosquito Coast while The Truman Show was

1:15 a film that was completely ahead of its

1:17 time I think it rings more true now than

1:20 it did in 1988 when it came out in this

1:23 present day we ourselves have become

1:26 modern-day human Burbank's through the

1:28 beauty of the internet social media and

1:31 yes what you're watching right now daily

1:34 vlogs I am guilty of it there's a couple

1:40 things I encourage you to do before or

1:42 after this vlog is watch the movie and

1:45 then go back and watch my filming

1:46 location video I did five years ago on

1:48 the out of the wu qian i missed a few

1:50 things here in town that were filmed for

1:53 the movie so i'm back i'm back to fight

1:57 them i just discovered something pretty

1:59 amazing in the movie when Jim Carrey is

2:01 walking to work he comes right by here

2:04 and two guys push him against the wall

2:06 in front of a Keyser chicken

2:09 advertisement that wall was right there

2:11 because the brick is still the same and

2:13 so is this little watermark thing here

2:18 on the ground look at this exactly the

2:20 same as it was in the movie obviously

2:22 they removed the wall but the spot is

2:25 still the same and another reason I

2:27 figured out that this was the spot

2:28 because if you look up you can see where

2:30 Jim Carrey's standing right here you can

2:33 see this little marker on the ground

2:34 where the concrete changes to brick and

2:36 you could see that awning it's a

2:39 two-for-one

2:40 it's a doppelganger special it's amazing

2:42 when you start delving and deep into

2:44 little like nooks and crannies at

2:46 locations what you can find this whole

2:48 courtyard was used and it looks totally

2:50 different but his office with the

2:52 revolving door was right there and check

2:55 it out he would have walked right across

2:57 where this lawn is and into the building

3:00 but this structure looks exactly the

3:03 same as it did in 1998

3:06 this Rubio architects sign is a movie

3:09 prop still hanging here this isn't a

3:12 real business this is left over from the

3:15 film there's nothing on the backside

3:16 because the camera was facing this way

3:19 the camera would never see the backside

3:21 so why would they set dress this only

3:23 what you see on camera yes in case you

3:26 were wondering I am a huge nerd the town

3:28 square looks considerably different

3:30 in fact the buildings have changed a lot

3:32 but right here is where that bus almost

3:34 hit him and then he put his hand out to

3:36 stop the bus but one thing that is

3:38 similar still is the market that he ran

3:41 inside to see his friend the market

3:43 pretty much looks the same the vending

3:45 machine where his friend was working

3:46 with right here and that shot where he

3:49 is telling him that there is a

3:50 conspiracy in town was from this angle

3:53 butter really blows my mind is the fact

3:56 that this ladder is still here and look

3:58 at that light the same ladder the same

4:02 light still in you and to prove it it

4:05 still even has that little sort of kind

4:07 of hidden Mickey thing on the side of

4:09 the wood just like in the film and also

4:23 supposedly right here behind the tennis

4:23 and Pro Shop is another relic from the

4:27 film and I think I found it sitting all

4:30 alone there's an air-conditioner in this

4:33 window and the door has changed but this

4:36 is where he leaned in to buy his ticket

4:37 and then he walked down the dock that

4:40 way of course this has been moved from

4:42 its movie location but this is it even

4:44 the slats on the side look exactly the

4:47 same that is an awesome fight so cool

4:59 this is a little gazebo that when he's

5:01 in his car with his wife they keep

5:03 circling around and around and around

5:04 and around before taking off down the

5:07 road and then traffic pulls out in front

5:09 of them hindering him from going where

5:12 he wants one other thing I forgot about

5:13 Florida it's hot and humid being in

5:17 California for a year and a half two

5:18 years really acclimated me to non

5:20 humidity so I'm sweating profusely even

5:23 some of the street signs from the film

5:25 remain the polls have been changed but

5:28 the street signs themselves still remain

5:31 the same that was very cool sorry about

5:37 that

5:37 moving on

5:57 the man in the sea Museum look at this

5:57 thing

5:58 pretty wild look at that on top there

6:01 that circular ball looking thing almost

6:03 looks like spaceship earth here's a

6:05 submarine by the name of tech diver can

6:09 even kinda see in the little portals

6:13 there look at this guy that's awesome

6:20 they have some dioramas with dates like

6:22 1690 this guy was submerged in water

6:25 with this kind of medieval looking

6:27 system and then 1715 this existed

6:32 imagine taking a dive in this

6:34 contraption crazy

6:45 as awesome as these are I really want to

6:45 know what the heck is going on here it's

6:50 a car into the water

7:06 that's cool look at that thing and they

7:06 even have a submarine inside this

7:08 building from what I can tell you can

7:11 crawl in the nether regions of it it's

7:14 definitely

7:35 this is a helmet created in 1920 and you

7:35 can put your head up inside there just

7:37 to see what it was like to wear one of

7:39 these ancient diving helmets are you

7:43 wild little claustrophobic just so that

7:50 place is pretty cool and the girl inside

7:52 said that this was the original

7:54 underwater housing facility the Sealab

7:58 one this is super historic right

8:01 straight ahead is an abandoned putt-putt

8:04 golf place this empty parking lot just

8:06 past it used to be a place called

8:08 Miracle strip amusement park and as a

8:11 small child my parents took me there and

8:13 I stand corrected the miniature golf

8:16 course is not abandoned there's a shark

8:19 foaming at the mouth

8:21 he is dribbling a little bit of drool

8:25 inviting people in to play some golf

8:27 Panama City Beach is one of those places

8:30 that when I was young my parents would

8:32 bring me too I was never big into the

8:35 beach

8:35 I enjoyed it when I was a kid building

8:37 sandcastles and whatnot but as an adult

8:40 I am NOT a huge fan of being in the Sun

8:43 I prefer the beach more at night that I

8:46 do during the day but I do like going

8:49 out into shallow water

8:50 I think jaws probably scarred me from

8:53 going out into deep water but I do love

8:57 the ambience of the beach the way it

8:59 looks the shoreline the water especially

9:02 when there is a pier involved all that

9:05 culminates in a pretty majestic

9:08 experience

9:11 hey guys wavin oh look at this car I

9:13 need to get one of those little beach

9:15 cruisers that's what's up in front of

9:17 this gift shop that looks like a cave

9:19 there are two poles one of the poles is

9:23 painted all the faces are painted and

9:27 the other one the faces are not painted

9:29 it's pretty cool I wonder if that's hand

9:32 carved I think I actually just got a

9:33 splinter

9:34 Oh straight ahead we seem to have some

9:36 sort of humongous ship parked in the

9:39 road look at that thing

9:42 the SS Ripley that kind of gives the

9:46 Titanic Museum in Pigeon Forge a run for

9:48 its money

9:48 oh look at Big Willie over here that's

9:51 the name of the place big Willie's

10:18 oh yeah it is time boiled peanuts off

10:18 the side of the road yeah wait a second

10:22 what is this they're closed

10:27 whap whap whap wham I hopes and dreams

10:31 have just been smashed man I saw that

10:36 sign that really wanted some stinkin

10:38 boiled peanuts

10:49 all right here's another place I'll try

10:49 here boil peanuts like the best things

10:56 ever look at that oh yeah

10:58 there's an art form to eating these

11:00 they're very messy but all a man finger

11:04 looking good way I eat him as I just put

11:06 it in my mouth and I bite it with my

11:07 teeth all the juice drips out you see

11:11 all over my shirt like all caveman saw

11:14 and then I split it open like this and

11:17 then you have

11:24 deliciousness right there in the sound

11:24 starting to sprinkle and rain just a

11:26 little bit and that store also had

11:28 cheddar curds if you've never had any of

11:31 these you don't know what you're missing

11:34 the sky looks incredible

11:47 even that bird thinks so it's not just

11:47 one angle of the sky it's all over the

11:50 sky as the Sun is setting so there's

11:53 this angle and then basically another

11:57 angle of the Sun setting look at that

12:01 it's incredible

12:09 Wow
