TheDailyWoo - 867 (11/15/14) Abandoned Tennessee State Prison

0:03 welcome everyone Adam the woo here happy

0:03 Saturday to

0:04 you I am very happy because I just

0:08 consuming some caffeinated beverages I'm

0:10 just now arriving in

0:12 Nashville after a couple day delay

0:16 getting here from the Pigeon Forge

0:17 Gatlinburg area CU yesterday I filmed an

0:21 epic video

0:23 adventure and today after I upload this

0:25 Vlog I'm going to be staying in

0:27 Nashville until actually till Tuesday

0:29 morning morning but today I'm going to

0:31 be indisposed and I am actually going to

0:33 lock myself down in front of my laptop

0:36 after I upload this video of course and

0:39 finish editing complete editing the

0:42 video that I filmed yesterday I've had

0:44 some other video adventures that I

0:46 filmed before the one I'm going to

0:49 upload next however what I did yesterday

0:52 means a lot to me it's an epic spot I

0:55 went to a place I was there all by

0:57 myself maybe you saw the Vlog yesterday

0:59 of me worrying about bears is in the

1:02 middle of the woods and I'm really

1:04 excited it's a subject that I hold very

1:08 close to my heart childhood memories if

1:11 you

1:12 will and let's create another memory

1:15 right now shall we it's my second

1:17 channel daily blog channel it's the

1:19 daily

1:22 pathway behind a truck stop Flying J I

1:25 believe yes Flying J all you truckers

1:29 out there why is is it called Flying J

1:33 what does J stand for and why is it

1:36 flying I'm not really sure got some

1:38 Mountain Dew in

1:39 here and the reason I'm going up this

1:41 way to show you what I'm going to show

1:43 you is because before I got the soda

1:46 maybe the caffeine not being in my

1:48 system actually hindered me from Gaining

1:51 entrance to this spot but I went to the

1:53 front entryway this place is very

1:56 heavily guarded not the gas station

1:59 truck stop but the place that resides

2:01 behind the truck stop and up this hill

2:04 the main entrance has a gazillion no

2:07 trespassing signs and very heavily armed

2:11 security guards and fences but I found

2:14 this little

2:16 walkway full of

2:18 berries I'm a little lad that loves

2:21 berries and

2:23 cream who remembers that commercial all

2:26 right let's go up this little area

2:29 through this

2:41 hill a little bit of a steep incline

2:41 here walking

2:48 up and what am I feasting my eyes on

2:48 that you could probably see in the

2:49 reflection of my glasses yes right here

2:53 on the other side of these railroad

2:56 tracks is this shun

3:06 the abandoned Tennessee State

3:06 Penitentiary right there look at that

3:25 down that is definitely not on level

3:25 ground I'm not going to leave that there

3:26 like these other people who littered I'm

3:28 gonna come back and drink that but I

3:30 wanted to give you the awesome hand

3:42 of that is incredible a massive

3:42 abandoned Tennessee penitentiary

3:46 prison right there now see we could

3:49 actually walk down the hill and walk

3:51 over there however look over there that

3:53 is where I was stopped you see a guy in

3:55 a

3:56 truck and there's some sort of a

3:58 security guard station

4:00 they do not like people out here they

4:04 will stop you if you try to gain

4:07 entrance without permission which leads

4:09 me to the topic of this Vlog I would

4:13 like to get to the point based on how

4:15 people are watching my videos and

4:17 connections that you guys have that I

4:20 might not be connected with it's a

4:23 vicarious circle of goodness if you will

4:26 so if you ever see something in a video

4:28 I'm talking about wanting to be able to

4:30 see either to get legitimate permission

4:32 to like something like this maybe not

4:36 this exactly do you have any connections

4:38 or maybe online you could figure out who

4:40 I need to contact to get into a place

4:42 like this but just of any my any of my

4:45 video adventures or places that I was

4:48 actually hindered from going inside of

4:50 because I didn't talk to the right

4:52 person or have the right connections

4:53 maybe you someone who's watching this

4:55 Vlog can actually lead me in the right

4:59 direction so let's use this as an

5:01 example if you know someone who's

5:04 connected to someone who either works

5:07 here as a security guard or you can find

5:09 out online how much it costs to get a

5:12 legitimate tour of this exact facility I

5:17 would love to get inside of there

5:20 there's a lot of history here and of

5:22 course the most popular one was the

5:24 filming locations of the movie Green

5:27 Mile The Green Mile the second movie by

5:30 the director from Sha Shank Redemption I

5:32 know a lot of people will say that kind

5:33 of looks like a prison that would be

5:35 used in The Walking Dead I am not a

5:38 Walking Dead afficionado in fact I've

5:41 only seen the first few episodes one day

5:44 I will hunker down when I stop traveling

5:46 or maybe I could probably watch them on

5:48 my laptop if I could download them or

5:50 get the DVDs or on Netflix I'm not sure

5:52 if they're on Netflix but one day I will

5:54 get caught up on The Walking Dead but a

5:56 lot of people probably are thinking that

5:58 looks like something that would be used

6:00 in The Walking Dead well it's

6:02 interesting that you bring that up

6:03 because the director of The Walking Dead

6:05 from season number one before he got

6:07 fired which is very interesting actually

6:10 directed the Sha Shank Redemption and

6:12 the movie that was filmed right here The

6:15 Green Mile he must have like some sort

6:17 of weird

6:20 fetish weird concocted strange peculiar

6:25 obsession with prisons and this one

6:28 right here definitely feeds into his

6:30 obsession because that is

6:33 absolutely fantastic look at that place

6:36 Shashank Redemption I've actually done

6:38 the filming locations of that was up in

6:40 Ohio Mansfield Reformatory you can find

6:44 that video just by Googling on YouTube

6:46 or just Google the filming locations of

6:50 sha Shank Redemption you'll probably see

6:52 my video on there if you haven't seeing

6:53 it already but I would love to actually

6:55 get inside of there maybe do a full main

6:58 channel of what the history of this

7:00 place is which is absolutely amazing I

7:02 was doing some research online or I

7:05 could actually do the filming locations

7:06 of The Green Mile that were right inside

7:11 of there but for now the closest we can

7:14 get and the closest you can

7:17 get is actually just right here in the

7:20 back side of these trees there are some

7:22 videos on YouTube people who've gone in

7:23 there I have not watched them yet maybe

7:26 I should sit down and actually watch

7:27 them and see how detailed

7:30 they've shown I don't think anyone's

7:31 done the actual filming occasions of The

7:33 Green Mile however that is what I want

7:37 to do so purpose of this Vlog not only

7:40 to show you this but to also invite you

7:42 into my world if you have a connection

7:45 you have a place that you want me to

7:48 go maybe you have a connection maybe you

7:51 have some sort of an email address maybe

7:53 you have some sort of any sort of

7:55 connection of something you want me to

7:57 see that I might not have let me

8:00 know where that info can be found I'm

8:04 going to let you guys go I need to

8:05 upload this Vlog I need to sit down I

8:08 need to chain myself to my laptop and

8:10 finish editing the video I filmed

8:12 yesterday yesterday was an awesome day

8:15 there I've done a lot of videos 300 plus

8:18 on my main Channel and this Vlog Channel

8:20 over

8:22 850 in a row and there man that truck is

8:25 making some weird crazy noise over there

8:28 I don't know if you could actually hear

8:29 that look at that water tower you can

8:30 kind of see that water tower off in the

8:32 distance that's a very old school water

8:35 tower as well next to this old prison

8:38 you got to wonder if the original prison

8:40 went all the way to the water tower

8:42 that's very interesting there's actually

8:43 an interstate over here some sort of a

8:46 highway so

8:48 yesterday was one of probably the top 10

8:51 or 20 days that I've had when it comes

8:54 to being in a place and getting a very

8:57 cool Vibe when it comes to being in an

8:59 area getting a Cool vibe it's happened a

9:02 few other times like being on the

9:04 universal backlog who I almost SLI I

9:06 almost slipped walking around Hill

9:09 Valley at Universal this is very slick

9:12 Sugar Sand I don't know if sugar saying

9:15 is a specific word but walking down that

9:18 is very slick my feet are not holding

9:20 the traction very

9:27 well so other epic days of filming

9:27 locations in Texas and the middle of

9:29 nowhere one time hanging out an entire

9:31 day with an elderly caretaker guy that

9:34 owned I wouldn't really call him elderly

9:36 he was definitely considerably older

9:38 than I am but I don't know when does

9:40 elderly start an old age set in or does

9:45 old age come before elderly I don't

9:48 really know but an older

9:50 gentleman who I developed a friendship

9:52 and a kinship with showed me around the

9:54 filming locations of John Wayne's Alamo

9:57 it was an awesome eight or 9 or 10 hour

10:00 experience hanging out with him a guy

10:02 who was in a different generation from

10:04 me he was a movie nerd also we had this

10:07 connection that was awesome so you got

10:10 that you got that particular day you got

10:12 the day at Universal Studios about 10

10:14 other days and then of course yesterday

10:17 which I will share what happened

10:18 yesterday hopefully tonight or tomorrow

10:20 when I upload my main Channel video of

10:23 what I filmed yesterday but for now I'm

10:26 going to let you guys go I'm going to

10:27 finish this Mountain Dew

10:29 look at that prison over

10:37 there man that is really cool but I be

10:37 in

10:38 Nashville it's difficult to walk drink

10:41 soda look at an exciting prison become

10:44 flabbergasted with the excitement of The

10:46 Green Mile movie filming locations and

10:50 probably some of the gnarly history that

10:52 happened inside that prison when it was

10:54 an actual active prison there's been a

10:57 bunch bunch of other movies filmed there

10:59 as well and consuming caffeine getting

11:02 small heart

11:05 palpitations from chugging too much

11:08 nectar of goodness form of Mountain

11:12 Dew so I'll be in Nashville until

11:16 Tuesday today I will not be meeting up
