1:02 on are you still here awesome it's my

1:05 second channel daily Vlog

1:07 Channel thanks for sticking around it's

1:09 the daily woo on a non smoggy day you

1:13 can see downtown Los Angeles from the

1:15 top of this

1:17 overpass way off in the distance you

1:20 could see it you can barely see it if

1:22 you look closely Straight Ahead downtown

1:26 LA we're not going to Downtown LA we're

1:29 going some somewhere else looking for a

1:31 place called George Bellis Park and this

1:34 is it right

1:36 here the area I'm standing at now is the

1:39 last undeveloped section of a former

1:42 Roadside Attraction in bua Park

1:44 California and I use the word

1:46 undeveloped lightly CU as you can see

1:48 there are baseball fields that have been

1:51 put here but if you go on the property

1:53 just a little bit farther that way there

1:55 are warehouses and businesses and Roads

1:59 decades ago

2:00 this whole section was totally different

2:03 and I brought my laptop along with me to

2:05 give you a little frame of reference

2:07 this is the map of the former Japanese

2:09 village and as best I can tell we are

2:11 currently standing somewhere in this

2:14 area here now it

2:18 looks like this from what I can tell by

2:21 doing some research online this place

2:23 was pretty awesome very well themed they

2:25 had a lot of deer running around a lot

2:27 of animals a lot of shows there's even a

2:29 Wikipedia article on the information

2:32 about this spot Japanese village and

2:34 Deer Park the Park first opened in 1967

2:38 at the address of

2:40 6122 not Avenue the Park closed in

2:43 1975 when it was sold along with the

2:46 movie land wax museum that's over by

2:50 knottsberry farm and here is the insane

2:53 thing almost 200 deer were

2:58 euthanized 200 100 deer just think about

3:02 that for a second 200 live animals

3:05 because of the closure of a theme park

3:09 were put to

3:10 sleep that would not happen in these

3:12 days at least I hope not all through

3:15 here were all types of themed Pavilions

3:19 ponds shows attractions places to get

3:23 food tourists all along through here you

3:27 can see not a whole heck of a when it

3:30 comes to remnants of the park itself and

3:33 once you get a little farther in you can

3:35 see those warehouses that I'm talking

3:37 about it's really hard to designate

3:40 where each of the attractions used to

3:42 sit I don't think that workout equipment

3:45 was here back then though that's right

3:47 come on here come on this large tree

3:49 here could have been back in the day

3:52 though that right there is probably

3:53 survived that long this might have

3:56 seen might have seen some things back in

3:59 the day

4:00 okay that was the bottom part of the

4:01 property let's drive up the road a

4:03 little and see if we can find where the

4:05 entryway was you look way off in the

4:07 distance you can see the five freeway

4:09 which a lot of people would pull off

4:11 that freeway to get into the park now

4:13 this road here Village I do not think

4:17 this road existed back then this was an

4:18 access road that was built once these

4:21 Warehouse all came into play I think

4:23 we're kind of about right in here where

4:25 the entryway was where that Village Road

4:30 was created here in this little

4:31 Warehouse region I think that's pretty

4:34 much where we are here was the entryway

4:38 into Japanese Village right there this

4:40 parking area is All That Remains of the

4:42 first Glimpse off the freeway of the

4:45 park itself now you can see no remnants

4:49 left but there's the freeway right there

4:51 in the distance so check this out the

4:53 freeway in my opinion runs right along

4:56 here and this sign of course we're

4:58 trying to catch the eye of all the

5:00 freeway passer buyers which means the

5:04 sign would have been right about in this

5:08 area here catching all the drivers going

5:12 to and fro saying come on into the

5:15 Japanese Village look at this old

5:17 pamphlet visit the Fuji folk at Japanese

5:21 Village 60 122 not Avenue Buena par

5:27 California the Fuji

5:31 folk you could meet the Fuji folk out

5:34 here I want to know where on property

5:36 this slide was was this like a kidy pool

5:39 out here could anyone that paid

5:41 admission just slide down that slide you

5:44 think that guy right there slid down

5:48 that slide at some point in his

5:51 career maybe there's an old postcard

5:54 barking sea

5:57 lions those sea lions

6:00 they were

6:06 barking huh I kind of want to see what

6:06 it looks like from the freeway here's a

6:09 sign designating not Avenue spray

6:11 painted on the side of that electrical

6:13 box and up there that's the entrance

6:16 into Orange County as you drive along

6:19 the five

6:22 freeway off to the right hand

6:25 side is the former Japanese Village now

6:29 I get to walk down the Steep

6:32 incline whoa

6:39 whoo whoa wo wo

6:39 whoa wo

6:42 oh oh my

6:46 gosh I could have tripped right there

6:48 that would have been bad could have

6:49 fallen one of those snake holes oops I

6:51 just now saw this sign guess I shouldn't

6:54 have walked up

6:55 there sorry

7:01 since we're so close it's only a mile

7:01 from property to property let's check

7:03 out the movie land wax museum that was

7:05 also sold in

7:08 1975 according to that Wikipedia article

7:10 anyway it's cool they still have the

7:12 1970 sign right up there it's now used

7:15 as a Titanic and a Bodies Exhibition

7:18 speaking of Titanic did you see that

7:20 awesome thing that they put on the

7:21 Titanic YouTube channel the entire 2 and

7:24 1/2 hour realtime simulation of the

7:27 sinking of the Titanic I think they

7:29 upload loaded a couple days ago pretty

7:31 freaking cool you can still see some

7:33 remnants of the old movie land wax

7:35 museum right in here look at the theming

7:37 on this backside of course you can't go

7:39 past this chain link fence and what have

7:42 we here say it ain't so a broken Bart

7:47 Simpson

7:50 skateboard don't have a cow man this

7:52 place was so popular back in the day

7:54 celebrities put their handprints here

7:58 what's up brother I have to be the

8:00 bearer of sad news Titanic the

8:03 exhibition which took over this building

8:05 I just realized according to a sign on

8:07 the front of the door is now closed

8:10 that's super strange I wonder why it

8:12 closed speaking of Titanic exhibitions

8:14 and Exhibits check out the one in Pigeon

8:16 Forge pretty freaking awesome they have

8:19 built a replica like a quarter length or

8:22 maybe a half size replica of the Titanic

8:25 itself so cool

8:29 America's first theme park since I was

8:32 right next door to knottsberry farm I

8:34 decided to take advantage of my annual

8:36 pass and my free refill mug and stop in

8:40 for a very short

8:46 while time for Coast Rider and look who

8:49 it is it's Justin scarred you've never

8:52 been on this before nope we're going to

8:54 do it right now you all right I'm

8:57 genuinely terrified of these kind of

8:58 rides for real you'll be all right like

9:00 not an on camera funny this scares me

9:03 just pretend it's goofy Skys school at

9:05 DCA it does not help yeah it's pretty

9:07 terrifying but if it's any consolation

9:10 this is worse here we go does it help at

9:13 all Justin and that we're in the front

9:14 seat does that make it less terrifying

9:16 no I super regret sitting here you're

9:49 edge I'm trying not to do just think of

9:52 the AOS Smith song We're living on the

9:55 edge I'll see you later wait a minute I

11:56 now it's time for ask and the wo don't

12:01 forget the hashtag hey Adam how old were

12:03 you when you first started playing the

12:04 bass and how old were you when you

12:06 joined your first band thanks pal I was

12:08 27 years old before I picked up my very

12:11 first musical instrument it was a bass

12:13 guitar I went to the shop I said I want

12:16 a bass guitar and I want an amplifier

12:18 the salesman at that time said try it on

12:21 put the strap on give it a little bit of

12:23 a try I was too nervous too

12:25 self-conscious to play it in front of

12:27 anyone including the salesman I said

12:29 wrap it up I took it home back to my

12:31 apartment I had at that time closed the

12:34 door my roommate was there I did not

12:36 even want him seeing me holding this

12:38 awkward instrument and I taught myself

12:41 how to play bass guitar shortly after

12:43 that I joined my first band went to

12:45 another band went to another band and

12:47 went to another band and did pretty well

12:49 in bands being self-taught and not

12:52 starting until I was 27 years old hey

12:55 Adam I just heard that they're talking

12:57 about doing a Threes Company movie

12:59 would you see a Threes Company movie and

13:02 what is your favorite episode of Threes

13:04 Company thanks man and keep up the good

13:06 work oh I am so not happy about a Threes

13:09 Company movie I would probably see it

13:10 just so I could mock it and ridicule it

13:12 and not be happy about the fact that

13:16 someone other than John Ritter or Joyce

13:18 tot or Suzanne Summers or the rest of

13:21 the cast would be playing those roles I

13:24 just feel some things are sacred and

13:27 should not be made into a movie

13:29 especially decades later I am the hugest

13:32 Threes Company fan on the face of the

13:34 planet I have the book I have the

13:37 DVDs you'd be hard pressed to find a

13:40 bigger Threes Company fan than I and I

13:43 really don't at first thought I don't

13:47 like the idea as far as my favorite

13:48 episodes there are so many the one where

13:50 he goes to the party and he's dancing

13:52 around because he's really drunk and

13:54 messed up because he did not want to fly

13:56 across the ocean to Hawaii to this

13:59 secret Island for this party so he gets

14:00 a little bit liquored up and crazy and

14:02 he's dancing around that's a really good

14:04 one I think most people consider that to

14:06 be one of the better Threes Company

14:08 episodes but I also like the one where

14:11 he is hitting on Harvey's sister the guy

14:14 at the gym and he's so sore he can't

14:16 even walk around and Harvey shows up

14:18 with the other two girls and he's

14:20 drinking the eggs and he's in the room

14:22 and he's like Harvey's your brother

14:24 Harvey's your brother but John Ritter

14:27 can't move because he's so sore from

14:29 working out when he's not the kind of

14:31 guy to work out he's trying to impress

14:33 this girl and there's also the episode

14:34 where he gets all the poison ivy all

14:37 over his body and the only way the

14:39 brother knows that he's messing around

14:40 with the sister in the woods is because

14:43 he's the one that has poison ivy I love

14:47 Three's Company I'm more of a furly guy

14:49 I do like The Ropers but I love when Don

14:52 knots comes in there season four out of

14:55 all eight seasons I think are the most

14:58 genius

14:59 geniusly written and best episodes of

15:02 thre's company hey Adam when will you be

15:04 coming down to Austin Texas to explore I

15:06 do like Texas and especially Austin in

15:08 fact I did the filming locations from

15:10 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre around

15:12 Austin not specifically in Austin but

15:15 just on the outskirts and did you know

15:17 the gas station from Texas Chainsaw

15:20 Massacre used to be abandoned when I did

15:22 the filming location video and now

15:24 someone has bought it and they are

15:26 renting out the rooms I need to get back

15:29 there that sounds like one heck of a

15:30 weekend hey Adam I was wondering if

15:32 you're ever coming to eastn Pennsylvania

15:34 to bushill Park it's abandoned and they

15:37 have the oldest fun house in the USA

15:38 that sounds pretty cool I've never heard

15:40 of that place actually so I appreciate

15:42 the tip I do like abandoned theme parks

15:44 and they don't grow on trees they're not

15:46 on every corner so any little tidbit a

15:49 hint on an abandoned theme park is much

15:52 appreciated hey Adam I just have a

15:54 question about which Tarantino movie do

15:57 you like or have you seen

15:59 I think he's really good director and uh

16:01 that's one of my questions for you for

16:03 now thank you I do like Quinton

16:05 tarantina of course the obvious is going

16:07 to be Pulp Fiction but there was a movie

16:09 called Jackie Brown which I don't think

16:10 did as well as some of his other bigger

16:13 films I really like Jackie Brown did you

16:16 ever see that one hey Adam do you know

16:20 Joy who okay there's a castle this looks

16:23 like Disney World I had to turn the

16:26 sound down because of the copyright

16:27 music wait it's a note says Dear Adam

16:30 the woo isn't it fun going to Disney

16:32 alone SSN e huh I do like going to

16:36 Disney alone or with family or with

16:39 friends or with

16:56 strangers one of the scariest places I

16:56 ever went was an abandoned highlight

16:58 building in the handh handle of Florida

17:01 some other explorers have been there

17:03 since but when I went I was completely

17:05 by myself it was terrifying I never want

17:08 to go back there hi Adam where do you

17:11 see yourself in 10 years time that's a

17:14 really good question and 10 years I will

17:15 be almost 52 years old it's crazy to

17:20 think about a lot a lot of things can

17:23 happen in 10 years a lot of things can

17:25 progress a lot of things can happen in a

17:27 year or two years or 5 years but 10

17:29 years that's a very F loaded

17:32 question hopefully I'm still around

17:35 doing things exploring filming living

17:38 life enjoying

17:40 life that's all you can ask for out of

17:42 all the places that you've explored what

17:44 were your two top favorites there are a

17:45 lot of places that I have been and gone

17:49 and a lot of places kind of get

17:50 forgotten and lost in the shuffle with

17:51 the mix of all the different videos that

17:54 I've done these might not necessarily be

17:56 the top two but here are two that that

17:59 some people may not have seen and mean a

18:01 lot to me this is a place called The

18:03 ministers Treehouse a huge gargantuan

18:07 treehouse in the middle basically in the

18:10 middle of nowhere built by a minister I

18:12 snuck all around through here years ago

18:15 it's called the world's largest

18:16 treehouse you just find it on the Adam

18:18 the woo Channel I love this video here

18:20 this gentleman built this Castle

18:23 completely by himself by hand with

18:26 supplies that people left on his

18:29 property the incomplete castle one man's

18:32 Fortress of Faith check it out I just

18:34 want to know Adam do you play video

18:36 games and if you do what's your favorite

18:39 video games that you play I am not

18:41 familiar with any of the video game

18:42 systems that have come out in the last

18:44 few decades I am an old school 80s nerd

18:46 I love the 1985 released NES system the

18:50 Nintendo Entertainment System Contra the

18:52 kunami code up up down down left right

18:55 left right ba select start or just start

18:58 depending off your playing with one or

18:59 two players I love all that stuff Mike

19:01 Tyson's punch out legendary Wings Legend

19:04 of Zelda all of that stuff holds a very

19:08 special place in my heart and who could

19:11 forget Metroid man I had suff such a

19:15 tough time beating that game hey Adam I

19:17 was just wondering what's your favorite

19:18 non-mainstream kind of Hidden Gem

19:21 attraction at Disneyland I think I'm

19:22 going to have to go full fantasy land on

19:24 this one and say Pinocchio or maybe

19:26 Allison Wonderland but I feel feel like

19:29 Pinocchio does not get the love and the

19:31 respect that it deserves as far as Walt

19:34 Disney World versus Disneyland

19:36 Disneyland has the better Fantasy Land

19:38 by far in my opinion by the way that is

19:42 an awesome either a poster or a picture

19:44 or a little mural of The Great Movie

19:46 Ride you have back there on your back

19:47 wall I'm very jealous of that item and

19:50 that has been another addition of go for

19:53 it ask ask and
