2:11
so this is the village you were talking
2:13
about
2:13
yes this is where the nurses would all
2:15
stay
2:16
so this was an active hospital
2:22
we've done a lot of videos out here i've
2:22
done three you've done three videos out
2:24
here in the past
2:26
yeah they're dude it's it's nuts here it
2:28
gets super big when it opens up
2:31
it gets super big when it opens up what
2:33
do you mean yeah because there's a
2:34
reveal when you oh oh oh gotcha gotcha
2:37
i forgot about the reveal yeah this
2:39
looks looks like something out of a
2:40
horror film
2:43
like children of the corn or like texas
2:45
chainsaw
2:49
yeah look at this like you could like
2:49
use this as like a
2:51
midwestern farmhouse if you just kind of
2:53
focused on this no one would even know
2:54
that we were in the area of boston that
2:56
we're in that's true well technically
2:58
this isn't boston outskirts though
3:00
outskirts of boston let's say so
3:03
it's like an iconic thing
3:05
they they redid the the fence for it
3:07
well the roof of the top part yeah
3:09
it's been here forever it's like
3:10
something on the lord of the rings
3:13
it's like a hobbit house kind of yeah
3:21
i don't even know what would have been
3:21
anything burn the witch
3:23
burn the witch that's what it
3:27
i don't know why i was thinking that but
3:28
that's why it kind of stand there it's
3:29
like you're going through uh what's it
3:30
called tsa security yeah yeah at the
3:32
airport put your hands up
3:39
so this is for a truck this is
3:39
this going the top of a truck what was
3:41
this or that's a sign that is something
3:43
i actually kind of reminds me how like a
3:45
truck will pull up
3:46
and then they like will dump the water
3:48
in and i'm looking at i don't think it
3:49
is like a water pipe i don't know what
3:51
what that is i think it's an old signage
3:53
but you can see a lot of people just
3:54
wandering around out here is that
3:56
leonardo dicaprio all right is this the
3:58
reveal you're talking about over here no
4:00
so right behind this building it reveals
4:02
and it opens up like the village and all
4:04
the buildings because you can't tell
4:05
it's here and when they first built this
4:06
place they wanted to keep it hidden from
4:08
the public they didn't want anyone to
4:10
know about this
4:11
and yeah
4:12
so it's cut yeah i remember when you're
4:13
driving it you were driving me over here
4:15
yeah started to realize that
4:17
it really is kind of like hidden back in
4:19
like
4:20
an area like a residential area kind of
4:21
around the outskirts well a lot of
4:23
dangerous people had to stay here and
4:24
they wanted to keep it away from the
4:25
public
4:26
all right going up this hill
4:28
this is the reveal yup
4:32
starts off the journey
4:41
oh wow
4:41
yup look at this courtyard
4:47
now you can kind of just get an idea
4:47
like oh snap like we're in like a
4:49
village
4:53
wow look at all the buildings back there
4:53
was there ever a time that this was
4:54
completely off limits you wouldn't even
4:56
be able to walk when i five years ago i
4:58
couldn't walk here but i had to sneak
4:59
and walk through every building bro wow
5:01
but now it's a public park two years ago
5:03
i turned into a public park i've noticed
5:05
a lot of places are doing that now where
5:07
you can't go in the buildings but you're
5:08
allowed to you know walk your dogs have
5:10
picnics things like that yeah they're
5:12
keeping the grass mowed
5:14
yep that's nice
5:16
a lot of asbestos and mold in these
5:18
buildings though
5:19
yeah it wouldn't be wise to go in there
5:21
nope i didn't realize there was going to
5:22
be this many buildings out here
5:25
i was thinking maybe like maybe one or
5:26
two
5:27
there's like 25 or 40 25 or 30 or 40.
5:31
there might be like i think there's 32
5:32
to be honest 32. i think there is that's
5:34
between 25 and 40. i don't know why i
5:36
skipped over 30 and 35. yeah so this was
5:39
the morgue
5:43
that was the morgue yep
5:43
i was just thinking about and
5:44
underground tunnels every building on
5:46
underground tunnel that led to the
5:48
morgue so when you died they would they
5:49
would take you on the ground so people
5:50
can't see you above so there's
5:52
underground tunnels under here every
5:53
building has done on the ground tunnel
5:54
here did you ever get into the
5:55
underground tunnel never got to
6:02
now this is not the correct time by any
6:02
means in fact
6:03
both times on either side are different
6:05
the minute hand
6:06
oh yeah it's different on both sides
6:08
even though it looks kind of similar it
6:09
is a different time frame
6:11
and there's a smaller clock up there on
6:13
the top tower
6:15
is that a secondary clock in that window
6:17
that little circular thing i can't tell
6:19
dang i don't know either but there's the
6:22
little directional area north south east
6:24
and west what is that like a wind charm
6:26
you think what is that anything
6:28
uh what do they call that uh oh
6:31
a weather main weather vane i always
6:34
weather maine is that
6:36
weather made i always say vayne for some
6:37
reason
6:39
but the clock is made out of wood you
6:41
can see the decomposing wood there and
6:43
it looks like there's a little slot
6:44
where something would pop out maybe like
6:46
a cuckoo clock kind of style
6:53
but over here there's like some seats
6:53
set up
6:54
a couple people over there you know out
6:56
for the morn morning stroll or i don't
6:58
even know what time it is daytime straw
7:00
noonish i feel like this would be a
7:02
really great place for a haunt like in
7:03
september and october do they do any
7:05
haunt stuff out here they don't that
7:07
would be a good idea though it's cool i
7:10
could definitely see
7:12
you know some
7:14
some scare actors out here setting it
7:16
all up and what got me thinking about
7:18
that is there's some pallets set up
7:19
there that kind of remind me of a setup
7:21
of like a queue line for a haunt they
7:22
made a whole archway right there and
7:24
that would be a way to go into the
7:26
asylum oh for shutter island yeah so
7:28
that's like leftover kind of
7:29
deterioration
7:30
like residue from an entrance they made
7:32
for an entrance so when you watch
7:33
shutter island you can see the archway
7:34
that's there yep
7:36
you see how they have these pallets set
7:37
up over here it kind of this is new i
7:39
don't know what's going on that's what
7:40
made me think like maybe they were
7:41
setting up for some kind of a haunt or
7:42
something i think there gotta be some
7:44
events oh you know i think the last time
7:45
i saw you was not 2017. i do i remember
7:48
when it was we were at knott's scary
7:50
farm oh yeah for october how long ago
7:52
was that though i don't think it was
7:54
2017
7:55
you think it was like 18 yeah it's yeah
7:58
probably i remember you took me there
8:00
and that was fun we went on the log ride
8:02
yep
8:03
we're just i'm just talking about
8:04
nothing nothing at all
8:06
we're just reminiscing
8:07
so the boys were on this side and the
8:09
girls are on the other side of the
8:10
property
8:15
so these were like not dorms but
8:20
so was this part were these the workers
8:22
or part of the hospital all the hospital
8:24
this is all hospital beds and stuff
8:26
we're in there
8:28
so it's interesting because the hospital
8:30
was separated into different buildings
8:32
so it wasn't one large facility
8:35
it was a big complex but this is one
8:37
building
8:38
and this is a totally separate building
8:39
it's not connected is it connected oh it
8:42
is connected no it's not
8:43
okay which one are is the steps that leo
8:46
sat on oh so it's more down there oh
8:48
it's down that way yep for the ending
8:49
movie every time i keep seeing the steps
8:51
i'm like those are those are the steps
8:53
yeah the leonardo dicaprio stepped on
8:56
stepped and sat on yeah
8:58
this is a cool sign with the angel wings
8:59
remember us
9:01
for we too have lived loved and laughed
9:05
sometimes it's got a bug in my eye
9:08
you're like a mosquito just went right
9:09
in my eyes
9:17
i was going to say you might put a like
9:17
interview somewhere
9:19
sometimes his work is here
9:22
at the water tower peeking up there and
9:24
this is the cafeteria here with the
9:25
windows all boarded up
9:28
or was the cafeteria
9:35
i just really like how many people out
9:35
here walk walking with their dogs
9:37
yeah it's really relaxing yeah with the
9:39
birds chirping
9:41
there is an active basketball court here
9:44
so if we had a b-ball we come out here
9:45
and shoot some hoops we could have that
9:46
would have been a good place to shoot
9:48
huh
9:50
it's just one goal over here on this
9:52
side
9:57
yeah
9:57
it's still there
10:08
i wonder who was the last person to dunk
10:08
can you dunk nope
10:10
yeah you can oh true
10:13
duncan
10:15
let's open that
10:18
oh you can't keep the gate closed that's
10:19
as far as that's as far as it goes
10:22
all right
10:23
no closing the gate you did try i tried
10:25
tried following the rules
10:27
and down the way here looks like they're
10:29
doing a little construction or tearing
10:30
something out
11:01
yeah they're not tearing anything down
11:01
maybe just breaking up the concrete
11:03
yeah we know what they want to do
11:05
maybe you should go ask him
11:10
while he's working yeah he'll i don't
11:10
think he would probably like that excuse
11:11
me sir yeah
11:12
what are you doing
11:14
like the nosy neighbors
11:22
would you have already put an edit in
11:22
here
11:24
and edit would you ever had to take this
11:25
long
11:26
i
11:31
i'm going to do the opposite i'm going
11:31
to keep this rolling see how it goes
11:33
maybe they might they might be excited
11:34
to see what's happening right there
11:35
though yeah that's true all right
11:40
you know what you should do your whole
11:40
video on just that
11:42
part of the fence is gone
11:45
the steps those are the steps those are
11:47
the steps those are the leo steps
11:50
yes from the ending yep
11:58
that is awesome
11:58
those are the ones those other ones he
12:00
sat there and he's like oh i'm gonna do
12:02
the lobotomy or something and then he
12:03
gets up and he walks away and it was
12:05
right here
12:10
i gotta sit in the same spot okay we've
12:12
been standing here for about five
12:14
minutes so we scoured some clips
12:16
of the film
12:18
and we were we're incorrect that is not
12:20
where leonardo dicaprio sat that was
12:22
from another scene in the movie yeah so
12:24
we've got to find where leo sat yeah
12:27
we're gonna find it though we're on a
12:28
mission
12:29
we're not gonna that's a teaser that's a
12:31
teaser yeah what does that mean that's a
12:33
little weird that says velociraptor
12:35
containment
12:36
carnivore handlers only within okay what
12:39
is that that's dinosaur that's like from
12:41
like jurassic park
12:43
a velociraptor is a dino
12:46
i don't see any dinos here no
12:49
what the heck
12:50
okay they had to have used us for some
12:52
sort of theming or maybe that's just
12:54
why is that there maybe it's like a joke
13:01
did i really scare you a little bit so
13:01
you're saying x-men was filmed out here
13:03
as well
13:04
in one of the buildings buildings
13:06
down there we have to hike though
13:08
adventure
13:13
which x-men was it don't remember but i
13:13
can i can assure you
13:14
x-men was filmed here
13:17
sure josh are you just joshing me nah i
13:19
mean it i mean it okay we have
13:21
discovered where the sidewalk was that
13:24
dicaprio walked down at the end shutter
13:26
island looks a lot different
13:30
a lot different now modern day but
13:32
basically as we're sitting
13:34
right here on these steps
13:36
which is not the steps he sat on
13:39
it was right there where that stage just
13:41
showed that a minute ago where they
13:42
built that fake archway but that was the
13:44
sidewalk there that he walked down
13:47
right there there's planters on either
13:49
side and the camera kind of pans there
13:51
you see that tree
13:52
there's a long
13:55
slow steady movement of the camera there
13:58
i'll go walk over to the base of the
13:59
sidewalk but that's it and the arch the
14:02
archway was right there it's been
14:04
replaced by this stage very difficult to
14:06
match up but this is it
14:08
and there's like a little yeah where the
14:10
sidewalk goes down it kind of veers off
14:11
to the left and the right there
14:13
but he walks past a couple guys are
14:15
standing here and he kind of goes
14:17
through the middle of them
14:21
but you can see the other you see the
14:21
remnants of where that archway was
14:24
so cool
14:32
i could hold the camera you could walk
14:32
down and reenact all right
14:36
that would be sick if you post it like
14:37
that
14:43
do i look like dicaprio kind of bro
14:43
honestly i wouldn't resemble yeah
14:48
and they're kind of in his way and he
14:48
just kind of does a little shift
14:50
around like that
14:53
that's it
14:54
dang there's my acting right there for
14:56
the day nailed it cut oh
15:00
cut
15:02
wrap it up
15:09
if you watch that scene the camera kind
15:09
of goes along the side of this pathway
15:12
this road
15:13
and pass some concrete
15:15
pylons on either side and then this is
15:19
the image you see before you
15:21
now it's kind of tough to see because
15:22
it's kind of silhouetted out there with
15:24
the trees the same and the steeple over
15:26
there
15:27
is the sign let me show what it looks
15:28
like in the film with the guards opening
15:30
the gate
15:31
of course the tree has a lot less leaves
15:33
on it then
15:34
and they just really set decorated that
15:36
building dramatically from what it looks
15:38
like now or maybe it was like that maybe
15:40
just they've taken it apart since then
15:42
was that 2010 yeah 2010 or 11. if you
15:45
walk up you can just see what it looks
15:47
like current day
15:49
there's that sidewalk these very
15:50
distinctive
15:52
patterns here the circular pattern of
15:54
the sidewalk
15:56
and there's that steeple
15:58
or
15:59
clock tower
16:12
okay i had to look it up
16:12
the x-men was called new mutants
16:15
and stars one of the guys from stranger
16:18
things why you play plays jonathan and
16:20
stranger thinks it was on new mutants
16:23
and they used the basketball court we
16:24
were out so we're gonna walk back over
16:25
the basketball court so we were here a
16:26
little bit ago we wondered you were
16:28
asking who was one of the last people to
16:29
play basketball yeah
16:31
it was one of the new mutants it was
16:33
john jonathan the whole time well i've
16:35
never to be honest i've never seen that
16:37
movie so i don't know if the guy from
16:38
stranger things in the in the new x-men
16:41
we're shooting hoops but
16:43
he was flying around in the trailer
16:46
swirling around in here
16:48
okay we are approaching
16:50
a labyrinth
16:58
looks like the labyrinth is kind of
16:58
grown over
16:59
yeah there's a sign for it too over here
17:02
do you know the difference between a
17:03
labyrinth and a maze no what is it the
17:06
difference in a labyrinth in a maze is a
17:08
labyrinth you can start off at the
17:10
beginning and as long as you follow it
17:14
okay yeah as long as you follow it
17:16
one direction you will end up in the
17:18
middle
17:19
uh a maze you could have a stopping
17:22
point oh my gosh so i stated that whole
17:24
labyrinth fact probably in three or four
17:26
videos over the years and is this
17:28
actually going to tell is this going to
17:29
confirm it a labyrinth is a circular
17:31
path that leads you to the center of an
17:32
elaborate design and back out again it
17:34
is not a maze
17:36
one cannot get lost
17:39
it reduces stress quiets the mind it
17:40
opens the heart
17:41
it is said as you enter
17:43
as one person you leave and have been
17:46
changed into another
17:49
walk well you can't even see it from
17:51
you think the x-men walked around that
17:53
labyrinth i really like the pillars on
17:55
this one
18:07
there's also a movie called the box
18:08
filmed out here parts of it cameron diaz
18:09
was in it but not the whole movie just a
18:12
couple scenes and this ramp no longer in
18:15
use
18:20
now going back to the car noticing over
18:20
here cannot go past this tree they do
18:21
have a posted sign
18:23
but back when you weren't allowed on
18:25
this property
18:26
you know the property down there that
18:28
now anybody can walk through
18:30
this is where anyone that was watching
18:32
over the premises
18:33
would stay and make sure no one
18:36
was doing anything wrong by by trotting
18:39
onto the property except now you're
18:40
allowed to but this building's still
18:42
here kind of rotting away
18:45
can't go over there now
18:46
according to that i don't think i showed
18:48
this on the way in there's a little
18:50
parking area
18:51
right at the entrance point to this like
18:53
little rock wall
18:55
that leads into the property
18:59
kind of neat with the moss on it
19:06
all right moving on to some other spots
19:06
all right we've now commuted probably a
19:08
good half hour or so over to franklin
19:10
park which reminds me a lot of griffith
19:13
in la in more ways than one because
19:15
there is an old zoo that's not used at
19:17
griffith park in la
19:19
and there's an old zoo even though
19:20
there's a new zoo
19:22
directly behind where we're walking
19:25
up this little incline somewhere in
19:27
these woods
19:28
is the old franklin park zoo area we're
19:30
gonna go find it i was here about 10
19:32
years ago but i do not remember where
19:33
it's located and i guess what happened
19:35
was when the zoo expanded they ended up
19:39
moving the bears oh look at this
19:41
what is that rabbit
19:59
you think he lives in the bear pit
19:59
maybe
20:01
you seen any bears
20:10
but when the zoo expanded this is
20:10
probably i don't know a few hundred
20:11
yards maybe more
20:12
there's some butterflies
20:18
they left all these cages up here
20:18
there's also a movie filmed here as well
20:22
directed by clint eastwood back in the
20:24
early 2000s called mystic river
20:27
sean penn was in it tim robbins was that
20:29
a
20:30
kevin bacon was in it
20:33
see if i can find the the pit that they
20:35
used
20:36
for the
20:38
the scene where sean penn is yelling
20:39
about his daughter
20:41
pretty dramatic scene
20:47
this might be right here
20:47
this might be the pit right here
20:49
wow
21:00
so the zoo opened in 1912
21:00
in fact it's etched in the wall here
21:10
that's pretty awesome the carving of the
21:10
two bears
21:12
with the boston city skyline there
21:13
behind it
21:15
1912.
21:30
never been up here before no
21:30
i've never even seen a picture of this
21:32
place i like it
21:33
look at the cages then even the rock
21:36
rock hasn't moved in forever
21:47
just noticing that you can see the top
21:47
of the little archway where the bear
21:49
carvings was in that scene from mystic
21:51
river
21:52
sean penn's running up
21:54
the staircase here
22:01
you know obviously this isn't a filming
22:01
location video but
22:03
gotta mention it
22:04
there's the angle there we're running up
22:06
the side of those stairs as shown right
22:08
there they are kind of going up the same
22:10
looks exactly the same i think even in
22:12
the movie it was really run down as well
22:14
so it's still run down to this day in
22:16
2022. and this was in fact the the pit
22:19
the hole here
22:24
and kevin bacon would have been standing
22:24
on the other side of this metal pole
22:26
and there was more of a kind of a
22:28
wrought iron rusted out fence there
22:30
what you can really look for though is
22:32
this
22:33
this little metal piece kind of pull
22:35
back
22:39
where he was standing i'll kind of show
22:40
how it kind of lines up and there's that
22:41
bear carving and just kevin bacon
22:44
walking past
22:46
right there and there's that little
22:48
notch in that little metal
22:50
metal section i always like to plant in
22:51
that kind of stuff
22:53
i thought about maybe jumping down in
22:55
there but that's probably not the wisest
22:56
idea because like there's leaves there
22:57
but it might be deeper than the way it
22:59
looks
23:01
what do you think they think that's the
23:02
ground there is that leave pile of
23:04
leaves leaves because you look in the
23:05
video you look how they went really deep
23:07
yeah so my first thought is i'm just
23:09
gonna jump down in there but you might
23:10
end up sinking so let's not do that
23:16
i've made that mistake before
23:16
with mud and things stepping in mud and
23:19
then sinking way down farther
23:26
i'm amazing you never even knew this
23:26
place existed nah man i do abandon all
23:28
this i've never seen it never even heard
23:30
of it but this is a cool photo
23:32
that statue is incredible doesn't it
23:34
remind you of the old lazy a little bit
23:36
yeah no it does
23:37
i think this part's a little bit better
23:38
than the old lacy
23:41
i mean the old lazoo does not have a
23:42
carving like this
23:49
and you got all the
23:49
the fencing up there
23:51
to make sure that the bears could not
23:53
get out
23:55
man look at this this is something else
23:59
just think years ago in 1912 or around
24:01
then there would have been bears walking
24:03
around here
24:05
now i'm walking around in here
24:08
there's a whole other section over here
24:55
now we look this up and this is not
24:55
desolate it is still used but from this
24:58
angle
24:59
it really looks as if
25:01
the george robert white stadium
25:04
is closed
25:06
this is interesting carving how the heck
25:08
do you run like this
25:11
they're getting tangled up here how
25:13
would you be able to sprint oh take a
25:15
look at this tree this tree's kind of
25:16
creepy and here's like this tunnel this
25:18
is called the overlook ruins just
25:20
walking right through the middle of this
25:22
tunnel this is
25:23
yeah this is quite a this is quite the
25:25
vibe
25:26
going through here right so i feel like
25:27
it's something off it
25:29
yeah just look out for pennywise and
25:31
there's some stair stairs here some
25:33
concrete stairs there used to be a
25:34
walkway
25:35
that would go across above the tunnel
25:37
perhaps
25:38
kind of looking down here a couple
25:40
different series of steps there's the
25:41
one we were on over there and then
25:43
there's this one
25:45
yeah they just tore all this out
25:47
whatever was here before and here's some
25:49
sort of fountain of some sort or could
25:50
have been oh this is another water
25:52
fountain with the step down here
25:55
and then you got the water that comes
25:56
out of there
25:58
this is called the overlook i believe
26:00
they called it
26:02
leading up into there where that
26:04
former building used to be hey about to
26:06
get in the car and head over to another
26:08
spot i'm kind of noticing the new
26:11
the modern day zoo is over here
26:20
in that area of franklin park you can
26:20
see there's a giraffe right there in the
26:21
middle of the screen but notice these
26:23
sculptures they are not facing me to
26:25
walk in the new zoo they are facing into
26:28
where the old zoo area
26:30
used to be which is very interesting
26:31
those sculptures have been there
26:33
maybe since the early 1900s as well all
26:35
right we've commuted over to jamaica
26:37
plains
26:38
an area of boston suburb of boston where
26:41
there's this mural we're heading over to
26:43
faux place called the noodle barn
26:47
this is in the parking lot of the noodle
26:49
barn there it is the front of it noodle
26:51
barn we have
26:53
tie-in vietnamese food one thing i
26:55
always get when i get faux i always get
26:57
spring rolls so i got a one order of
26:59
spring rolls is two spring rolls but in
27:02
reality the table got four sprinkles we
27:04
got two orders of spring rolls i got
27:06
spring rolls josh got spring rolls i
27:08
went with foga which is basically just
27:10
chicken
27:11
soup
27:12
for like a chicken soup
27:15
you know chicken noodle soup if you will
27:16
i really like the broth as well and then
27:18
josh ended up getting kind of like a
27:20
noodle soup too but he got tomatoes and
27:22
stuff in his which looks
27:23
pretty dang tasty and while we're over
27:25
here in jamaica plains i had to go by
27:28
the midway cafe
27:29
which back in 2009 2010 i was in a band
27:33
that toured through here we played
27:35
inside the midway cafe i could not
27:37
remember the name of it but i started to
27:38
look up different venues around jamaica
27:42
and realize that this is the spot and
27:44
now that i stand here really brings back
27:46
a lot of memories boston's best live
27:49
music i was in a punk band
27:51
it's 2009 2010 give or take
27:54
and there's some pictures up on the wall
27:56
is that steve i thought so is it no it's
27:58
not steve
28:00
it kind of looks like even though it
28:01
says no parking i do remember parking my
28:03
van here to load in and out of the venue
28:05
itself and even though the banner on the
28:07
stage has changed that is the same stage
28:09
yeah younger me probably don't know 12
28:11
13 years ago
28:18
that could symbolically be me up there
28:18
probably the one on the right there
28:19
playing because i didn't have long hair
28:20
like that but the other guy
28:23
let's play i played bass guitar
28:26
a few clouds up there today
28:28
see if i see any silhouettes or
28:31
shapes in the clouds
28:49
i'll see the next video the vlog
28:49
is over
