0:07
day shark still looks fake the daily woo
0:12
heading from Pigeon Forge into
0:14
Gatlinburg right along the little Pigeon
0:16
River and traffic is extremely backed up
0:20
I think maybe a tree fell in the road
0:22
and I'm riding in my uncle's car my aunt
0:24
and uncle are in town so we're going to
0:26
hang out today and do some touristy
0:27
stuff power lines got knocked down in
0:29
the wind storm M that's what was holding
0:31
up traffic yeah I could seriously just
0:34
stand here and watch these little guys
0:37
walking and dancing
0:39
around for a very long time and not get
0:42
bored especially this one here in the
0:43
middle this little guy playing with the
0:46
ball there just having a good time it's
0:48
very windy out here today I think later
0:51
it's supposed to storm a lot of rain
0:53
earlier a gust of wind blew through I
0:55
saw a portapotty on the other end of
0:57
town completely get blown over hopefully
1:00
no one was using it I've always heard
1:02
that inside the Gatlinburg in is where
1:04
the song Rocky Top Tennessee was
1:06
originally written here on the wall they
1:07
have a photo of the couple who wrote the
1:10
song and the actual room that they
1:13
stayed in we go take a look at it
1:15
heading to the third floor and I asked
1:18
to see the room and they gave me they
1:19
just gave me the room key I'm not
1:21
renting the room for the night they just
1:22
said go look at the room I said okay I
1:25
will it's even designated by the sign at
1:28
the top of the door you're not allowed
1:29
to smoke in here but you can you can
1:32
write a song If you so choose look at
1:36
this the Rocky Top room this is where
1:41
the
1:42
song was
1:50
written this is Tennessee History right
1:50
here this is amazing there they are
1:53
sitting on the stairwell this Placer
1:55
designates the moment itself in 1967
2:00
I'm amazed that they just let us walk
2:03
around up in here that's awesome the
2:05
maximum room rate is $500 now that's not
2:08
what the normal daily charge is but
2:10
that's the most they are legally allowed
2:12
to charge for the Rocky Top room I'm
2:15
sure this had a lot of
2:18
inspiration looking at these mountains
2:21
this is the window out the room you can
2:23
see the chair lift that they are now
2:24
repurposing because the original one was
2:28
damaged in the fires late last
2:44
year pretty
2:44
amazing you know the song I'm talking
2:46
about right Rocky
2:55
Top pretty freaking cool and not only
2:55
that but a lot of other famous names
2:57
have stayed here president Herbert
2:59
Hoover chief chief justice Earl Warren
3:01
Liberace Andy Williams and JC Penny
3:05
himself I only had a guitar I could just
3:08
write a song right
3:17
now definitely an air of
3:17
nostalgia all throughout the Halls here
3:20
at the Gatlinburg in and next to the
3:23
elevator is this poster of a movie
3:25
called A Walk in the spring rain which
3:27
was filmed at the national park here
3:30
I've never even heard of that movie but
3:31
now I have to watch it these are all the
3:33
different people who have stayed here
3:35
and signed their name all along the wall
3:38
it's like the wall of
3:40
fame the lady at the front desk was
3:42
telling me in that movie ingred Bergman
3:45
filmed some scenes right here on the
3:47
porch and in the parking lot here
3:50
Hollywood royalty in Tennessee just
3:53
hanging out so cool you can not only
3:55
hear the wind but you can see it the
3:57
trees it is very blustery
4:00
out here right now and to give you an
4:02
outside perspective the room was right
4:05
there that's the window to the room very
4:07
windy I think I just tasted part of a
4:09
tree
4:11
branch just then holy cow Watch
4:14
Out w the heck is a hurricane out here
4:19
this guy's picking up tree limbs there's
4:21
hurricane force winds decided to come
4:24
indoors a lot safer inside well maybe
4:28
it's safer inside rley seems seem to be
4:30
something down in this Corridor it says
4:32
if you can grab it you can keep
4:43
it just a AED you power inside the
4:43
building has gone out because of the
4:44
storm outside there are some flood
4:47
lights that are on a different I guess a
4:48
different generator but
4:50
inside all the main lights are off
4:53
except the exit but all the regular
4:56
power is not operational the storm I
5:01
have the flashlight on my phone on
5:03
standing in front of the original Count
5:07
Dracula the Ambiance in here is kind of
5:10
creepy with no music and no lights this
5:13
gargoyle is far from Afraid of the
5:17
Dark this one's on me I don't know what
5:20
that means but over here look at this
5:23
it's a vampire killing kit whoa
5:28
everything you need is in that box which
5:31
is located
5:33
inside inside this casket too which
5:36
makes it doubly scary we have to leave
5:40
now they said the power is not coming
5:41
back on for a
5:47
while see I told I told you you would
5:47
enjoy this Roadside Attraction I told
5:49
you you'd see something I told you I
5:50
told you'd be kind of spooky in here the
5:53
power will not be coming back on believe
5:56
it or not this girl is very disappointed
5:59
standing at the window wanting them to
6:01
reopen in fact the whole block has lost
6:05
power but they still continue to cut the
6:08
fudge the cool thing is they let
6:09
everybody inside they're going to let
6:11
them come back they restamp their
6:12
tickets so anyone that was in there when
6:14
the power went out could come back for
6:15
free oh wow the lights the street lights
6:19
also are not
6:21
working man took out a whole grid Mellow
6:24
Mushroom however is open for business
6:26
and this guy on the stairs is pretty
6:28
awesome all right this is what we're
6:30
dealing with a supreme large pizza this
6:32
looks
6:49
delicious oh yeah mission
6:49
accomplished it looks like the power is
6:51
still off on this block which means the
6:56
granite ball which is normally floating
6:58
on water for the the first time ever is
7:01
not able to be moved you can't move it
7:03
because it needs electricity to propel
7:06
the water which holds it up even this
7:08
block electricity is still currently out
7:11
you can see if you look very closely you
7:14
can see the lanterns are lit but inside
7:17
all the lights are off prominently
7:19
displayed close signs here at the
7:22
allamerican with a bail of hay next to
7:25
the fake window and check it out a
7:26
little stuffed owl up there he's not
7:29
afraid of the dark feed the
7:32
birds
7:35
to to
7:38
toin toin bag you sing a Mary poppin
7:42
song really yeah feed the birds tough so
7:48
bag tough t i sound just like dick van
7:51
dijke right yeah yeah totally this is
7:54
crazy seeing all these
7:56
businesses close because of no power
8:00
and this might be the first time I've
8:02
ever seen world of Illusions closed and
8:06
not playing the Star Trek next
8:09
Generation theme music nothing is moving
8:13
they have the Rope up but if you look
8:15
closely back in there the doors open and
8:18
Doc Brown is he's very confused though
8:21
because there's no theme music cuz
8:23
without power there is no music isn't
8:28
that right
8:30
Spider-Man isn't that right I've never
8:33
seen Gatlinburg quite like this only
8:35
about a quarter of each place is open
8:39
for
8:40
business kind of weird as best I can
8:42
figure everything on the leftand side of
8:44
where I'm looking down the road no power
8:47
everything on the right hand side has
8:50
electricity except for the traffic
8:53
lights they have the officers out taking
8:56
care of all the pedestrians and cars the
8:59
other day I named this bear borgard tell
9:02
me what you think tell me if you think
9:03
his name is fitting does this look like
9:05
a borgard to you defin looks like a
9:07
border yeah right you could see if you
9:09

9:10
Border guard that would be a border yeah
9:12

platform and you're going to take it to
9:25
the top at the opposite end of the
9:28
