Wednesday September 21st 2022 a building
0:10
I have wanted to get inside of for many
0:13
years and today
0:15
I have permission
0:16
the site of the 1987 cult classic Three
0:21
O'Clock High
0:22
Ogden High
0:28
am excited about this
0:28
and there is someone with a leaf blower
0:32
welcome everyone Adam the woo here it is
0:35
now raining but I am not going to let
0:38
that damper my excitement to go inside
0:42
this building
0:44
for many many years I have wanted to
0:46
cover the locations of this film
0:49
and I've never been able to
0:52
it is happening
1:00
even no of this film but I assure you it
1:00
is classic
1:02
1980s
1:03
goodness kind of Ferris bueller-ish kind
1:08
of a dark comedy-ish fell off the radar
1:11
of a lot of people but I am here to
1:14
cover it as best I can
1:16
and the time a lot is that I am allowed
1:18
inside
1:27
for join me
1:27
Italian
1:28
I'm so excited
1:30
yeah that sky looks very haunting and
1:32
horrifying now the opening scene took
1:35
place from an angle just like this from
1:36
like a kind of a crane up top
1:39
showing the high school's name fictional
1:41
high school's name and then kind of pan
1:43
down like this where all the students
1:45
are talking about a new student who is
1:48
going to arrive buddy Revell it's kind
1:51
of a long one take they kind of morphed
1:53
in a couple edits here and there but all
1:56
in all it's one long take walking
1:57
through this little Courtyard and up the
2:00
stairs
2:01
into the high school very Gothic
2:04
architecture look at this place what an
2:07
amazing complex
2:09
first time I saw this movie was in the
2:12
80s there was a hurricane in the
2:14
panhandle of Florida where I lived in
2:16
Niceville Florida and we were all kind
2:18
of stuck inside some other guys my age
2:20
brought a vcr and the VHS and they
2:23
brought three o'clock high and we
2:25
watched it there in a hurricane party
2:27
now one of the actresses in that opening
2:30
moments when the camera pans down
2:32
follows the students right along this
2:34
staircase is Yardley Smith who played
2:36
Lisa Simpson also in quite a few other
2:38
80s movies as well who's only in it for
2:41
a very very brief moment but she is in
2:43
the film I don't think you could see
2:46
where it says Ogden up there
2:49
but they walk up this the one take
2:52
it appears to be like one long take but
2:55
there is an edit like right about here
2:57
where the dialogue shifts and then kind
3:00
of zooms over to here where there's some
3:02
kind of surfer guy surfery kind of guys
3:04
that walk in
3:06
through this door then they go up the
3:08
staircase
3:09
and then down the hallways and I'm
3:11
really hoping the lockers are all still
3:13
in there I am really happy that a lot of
3:14
it still looks like it does back in the
3:16
mid 80s very distinct
3:24
would you call it coffin shaped that's
3:24
like coffin shaped yeah the windows
3:31
also Sean Clark the thing with two heads
3:31
I never know how to introduce you a
3:33
friend of Adam the woo so explain you
3:36
are on the same wavelength as far as
3:38
loving this movie as I am I just saw a
3:39
lightning bolt right there and this has
3:42
been a bucket list to get inside here
3:43
for us for a long time yes and we're
3:45
doing it yes
3:51
hear that yeah we're gonna get something
3:51
you watch
3:52
so we can't go in this way
3:55
and we're not quite yet for our we're a
3:58
little early for our appointment so
3:59
we're just kind of kind of wander the
4:00
perimeter yeah unfortunately for schools
4:03
it's frowned upon just to walk in yeah
4:05
we had to get permission yeah which we
4:07
did yeah we did it right we did it right
4:09
for once yeah all right just to show
4:11
where Sean and I are standing at this
4:13
moment we're standing in this very
4:15
doorway right here
4:17
this is a kind of screen grab trying to
4:19
avoid the downfall trying to avoid the
4:21
rain at this moment
4:23
so basically that little like what I
4:25
just showed is them walking up this very
4:27
this very stairwell right here
4:31
now once the rain clears a little bit
4:33
I'll walk now it's starting to rain
4:34
harder I'm gonna walk out there as soon
4:36
as I said that I'm gonna go out there
4:38
and get this angle behind the back side
4:40
of the leather jacket a buddy Revell
4:42
look especially with the clouds behind
4:44
it yeah it looks really cool with the
4:45
clouds there he is Buddy Revell walking
4:47
right up this staircase to quote him
4:51
I don't like people
4:53
knowing about me
4:55
he just didn't want anybody knowing
4:57
about him he didn't want an article
4:58
written about him he didn't want the
4:59
paper interview just leave the guy alone
5:01
but they didn't he also didn't like to
5:03
be touched that's true he didn't want to
5:05
be touched he's a touch freak yeah
5:06
that's what they said that's the quote
5:09
so if he touched him at the end
5:11
you're gonna have to fight him yeah
5:22
did it look intimidating it did
5:22
I got a little scared
5:24
you made me mad Jerry and now I gotta do
5:28
something
5:28
to work it off okay we're walking we're
5:31
walking around the back here now I'm
5:33
obviously filming this a little bit out
5:34
of continuity of the movie but in all
5:36
honesty I was trying to say maybe three
5:38
percent of those who are watching this
5:40
right now
5:41
probably have not seen the movie so
5:43
spoiler alerts there will be a lot of
5:44
spoilers in this but back here is where
5:46
they saw I encourage you to maybe stop
5:48
this video watch the movie and then come
5:52
back and you'll see that this is where
5:54
the climactic fight ending took place
5:57
right here this is where it was so they
5:59
had a lot of extras thousand extras all
6:03
kind of lining along here kind of a huge
6:06
Congregation of people there are people
6:07
standing up there people standing up
6:09
there there's one moment
6:12
where buddy Revell walks out of that
6:14
door and kind of looking up very
6:16
intimidating standing right over there
6:18
so I'll go over there and match that up
6:19
and there's also a moment where Jerry
6:21
Mitchell walks out of this very door
6:24
right over here
6:28
oh is this when he walks out for the
6:28
fight this is when he walks out for the
6:30
fight comes out of this door turns the
6:34
corner everyone starts cheering right
6:36
here and that building this is all new
6:38
construction yeah this is all new over
6:41
here
6:42
all new
6:43
this looks a lot different than it did
6:45
yeah because this was like a parking lot
6:47
at one point this was all a parking lot
6:48
they had cars staged in here and just to
6:51
give a little contact so there's where
6:52
Jerry walks out of these doors and then
6:54
kind of turns around
6:56
the side there so
6:58
it's just basically the same moment it's
6:59
like a you know separated by
7:01
a very brief moment or two where he
7:04
walks out of these very doors and then
7:06
the camera just kind of slides
7:09
watching him
7:11
and then there the unveiling of where
7:14
the fight is going to take place okay
7:15
this is kind of a view of the entire
7:17
crowd listen to the Blu-ray commentary
7:18
they basically said they started off the
7:21
beginning of the day with like a
7:22
thousand people and then a lot of people
7:23
left so they started doing
7:25
a lot of the scenes without the bigger
7:27
crowd so the smaller crowd scenes were a
7:29
little bit later in the day but when the
7:30
first thousand people are extras were
7:31
here they were all kind of lined right
7:34
along the edge here looking out the
7:36
windows up there and I think the I think
7:38
the punch out was like right in here the
7:40
kind of the fight was like right over
7:42
here I'm kind of looking down here at
7:43
another kind of screen grab kind of
7:46
matching it up where buddy first punched
7:49
oh that's when he punches the teacher
7:50
yeah that way he punches the teachers
7:52
the teacher would have been laying kind
7:53
of like right down here and then of
7:55
course after he gets you know at the
7:56
very very end when Mitchell's about to
7:57
deliver that last punch I'm gonna
7:59
paraphrase don't F this up Mitchell
8:03
but that was right here I mean this is
8:05
the exact spot more or less where the
8:08
teacher was kind of late and I was
8:09
hoping I was watching it there were some
8:11
like arrows and things right in here I
8:12
was kind of match up where buddy Revell
8:14
was knocked out laying on the Arrow but
8:16
it's all been repaved over so there's
8:17
really no way to match up the exact spot
8:19
where it was but there is the angle when
8:22
Ravel walks out of here
8:24
and kind of it's like looking up very
8:26
ominous looking yeah it's like very very
8:28
low almost like film from the ground
8:30
level so like the camera would have been
8:32
right down here at ground level and then
8:35
the camera is kind of up
8:37
looking at looking at him right there
8:39
very very very low down and wide lens
8:41
yeah who could forget when buddy grabs
8:43
the two guys are doing a little
8:44
documentary the two they grab the like
8:47
the old VHS style and they see Smash It
8:50
Up up against a truck bed just destroys
8:53
it that truck bed would be kind of where
8:54
that concrete wall is now and that would
8:56
be kind of the angle from there
9:03
have you ever introduced this movie to
9:03
anyone and them not like it
9:05
no I've turned this movie on to so many
9:08
people yeah so many people they've never
9:11
heard of it it's a deep cut and I highly
9:13
recommend it if you're into 80s movies
9:14
just over here brand new building all
9:16
right now after looking at this we're
9:18
trying to pinpoint the punch out scene
9:19
right here you got almost got this like
9:21
Center Point kind of here we counted the
9:23
Windows Eight Windows over and the angle
9:25
of where we're at we figured it's like
9:26
kind of in this general area within a
9:28
few feet so basically where this new
9:29
tree is is where that that van was and
9:32
then the crowd was there so kind of go
9:34
around the tree so it was right about
9:35
over here okay real quick like we're
9:37
walking away from the school passing the
9:40
baseball field then over to the football
9:41
field
9:42
and it looks as if the original railing
9:45
I apologize for the rain
9:46
could we wipe the rain off but it looks
9:48
like the original railing it was painted
9:50
green in the film now it's been painted
9:52
like a darker color
9:54
where there walks out the fire alarm off
9:57
which gave Jerry the opportunity to meet
10:00
up with one of the football players who
10:01
was gonna beat up buddy Revel it's very
10:04
windy out here so this is the football
10:05
field now
10:08
oh he almost doubled oh yeah he was up
10:10
there making the announcement right up
10:12
there
10:13
all right School in the background Jerry
10:15
Mitchell walking up and this is kind of
10:17
the angle the
10:18
the one beam kind of overshadowing the
10:20
other more or less I think it might have
10:22
been kind of a little lower down like
10:24
that but basically turns and for a brief
10:26
moment you do see the track and then it
10:29
kind of pans up and he realizes wow all
10:32
the students are out here so how he was
10:34
going to find the guy he was looking for
10:35
okay from what I can tell they may have
10:37
replaced the bars up there
10:39
the width of them are a little bit
10:41
different
10:42
yeah he's up there okay yeah way up top
10:45
up there right in the middle
10:47
and he's projecting out saying if he
10:49
catches who set the fire alarm off there
10:52
will be repercussions
10:54
and you can kind of see
10:56
as the camera pans back you can see the
10:58
school how far it is away from the
11:00
school itself there's a ladder on the
11:02
back side but there is the angle there
11:04
see school in the background the
11:06
principal making a statement they were
11:09
the Tigers
11:11
in the movie
11:13
and of course it's been redone the metal
11:15
bars have been written but he was
11:15
standing up there yeah that is pretty
11:17
dang cool that's like a memorable moment
11:20
but I always recall from the film
11:28
and houses in the background all still
11:28
look the same as well should be able to
11:29
match some of the houses up out here and
11:31
he's going to pay the money for the
11:33
football player to
11:35
to pretty much save him from Buddy
11:37
Revell somehow got him up there I can't
11:40
see any type of stairs or anything
11:42
through those windows Sean went and
11:44
looked to find a ladder to go up there
11:46
where the principal was standing no
11:48
ladders he probably have to go inside
11:49
there and then up
11:51
yeah but I don't I'm looking through
11:53
those windows I don't see anything
11:54
unless it's like a fat hallway that goes
11:56
up there so I believe you can see this
11:58
house over here when they're having a
12:00
discussion about the exchange of the
12:02
money in exchange for protection
12:05
Jerry Mitchell and then also
12:07
when he brings them the money they're
12:09
walking over here by these goal posts at
12:12
first I was thinking the principal was
12:13
looking that direction right but now
12:16
that I see it yeah yeah once you're here
12:18
and you can kind of get your bearings
12:19
yeah yeah
12:21
gonna walk back over now
12:24
see what else we can find and get in
12:27
I'm excited to get inside there
12:30
just showing everything first and then
12:31
we're gonna what do you think should I
12:32
give it a hit the bucket the what
12:35
are you gonna give it a hit
12:38
nice
12:43
that didn't actually put any body into
12:43
it because it is super it's just flimsy
12:45
like I thought it was gonna be hard I
12:48
almost took a header there's one
12:49
interesting thing when Jerry tries to
12:51
leave the engine you know buddy had
12:53
ripped some stuff out of the engine
12:54
stuck the switchblade in the steering
12:56
wheel with the note clock rings after
12:59
the clock strikes at three o'clock and
13:01
then the duker chases him up through
13:04
like a kind of a weird area that was
13:06
enclosed and had kind of a roof on it
13:08
and we're thinking that this is it just
13:10
kind of judging where the parking lot
13:11
was over there and then turning and kind
13:14
of running up here
13:16
and this is kind of well this is like my
13:18
best educated guess that it happened
13:19
right through here all right yeah so I'm
13:21
thinking the chain link fence was right
13:22
here went across
13:25
they have repaved this
13:27
so there was like a staircase on this
13:29
side and then there was almost like a
13:31
little
13:31
I don't know like a pylon right here and
13:33
something else over here but this does
13:35
look the same when Jerry's running up
13:37
this
13:37
and then you can see this window was
13:39
like covered over in the movie you can
13:41
also see this door chain link fence was
13:44
right here put it right here I think the
13:46
chain link fence was here no there
13:48
wasn't the door the door was on the
13:50
other side of it yeah the door the chain
13:52
link fences at the top of the fence
13:54
because there's one angle where he's got
13:56
Jerry and the fences here and you can
13:58
see this going out and you can see the
14:00
mountains
14:01
going out let me pull up that photo okay
14:03
just to show you can see there's the
14:05
wall the mountains behind them
14:06
of course the duker grabs the note
14:08
launches it
14:10
down and out
14:12
kind of down that down that direction
14:13
the sound effects of the wind blowing
14:17
and of course the chain link fence right
14:20
and there's also kind of a high up
14:22
camera angle where Jerry tries to climb
14:24
over the fence you see this window fence
14:26
here and that metal door
14:28
okay inside now looking at the tiger so
14:31
that opening scene they walk in here and
14:33
I'm pretty sure that this because this
14:34
this tiger is actually in the movie and
14:36
I believe if this was the corridor
14:38
looking down where I think the the store
14:40
was and Buddy revell's locker and try to
14:43
match all that up but first we're gonna
14:44
be taken over to the library which still
14:46
exists the bathrooms however yeah we're
14:48
in another building for school used to
14:50
own sold it off and was torn down so not
14:52
going to be able to find the bathrooms
14:53
where you know the urinal scenes were
14:55
okay you have to be quiet because we're
14:57
in the library being shown around by the
14:59
way being escorted
15:00
but I love the windows definitely not as
15:03
big of a room this is where the
15:04
bookcases fell over but pay attention to
15:06
the designs on the roof
15:09
because the designs on the roof are
15:10
still the same from 87 this is where
15:13
buddy Ravel goes after he knocks out the
15:16
football player okay we figured out that
15:18
where this photo was taken in the night
15:20
which they had to do the scene a couple
15:22
times because there was one air so they
15:23
had to set all the bookshelfs up and
15:24
everything but that corner there
15:27
transcends over to this
15:34
where the bookcase is where you notice
15:34
this glass here this has been completely
15:36
changed glass is no longer there this
15:37
office
15:38
was a glass but where buddy and his
15:40
friend were not buddy but we're Jerry
15:42
Mitchell and his friend were was right
15:44
here in this corner because if you look
15:45
up
15:46
at this you can see these up above them
15:50
okay this is the angle I'm referring to
15:52
here so just kind of kind of go up now
15:55
so take a look at this and where they're
15:57
standing low-fat right about there more
16:00
or less
16:01
this is so cool
16:04
obviously you have to be very very quiet
16:06
luckily my camera picks up audio pretty
16:09
well yeah
16:15
yeah I think this is probably one of the
16:15
coolest things right here just the fact
16:18
that this is so freaking cool you know
16:21
something that's even more awesome
16:23
these are the original chairs so these
16:25
are the chairs that were in the middle
16:27
these are the chairs
16:34
tables are different but these are the
16:34
same chairs looking at that screen grab
16:42
take a look at that okay it was just
16:42
informed where Ravel was sitting was
16:44
right over here and doesn't really match
16:47
up I was talking to the gentleman that's
16:49
showing us around he said there used to
16:51
be an exit here with a very kind of
16:52
rickety staircase
16:54
and that's why there's an exit sign in
16:56
the frame and over these windows was a
16:59
kind of like a art deco style so this is
17:01
where
17:02
buddy was was sitting and asking the
17:04
football player if he had to play
17:06
football with him I'm glad you pointed
17:07
out the exit sign I wouldn't even notice
17:09
that
17:09
it's pretty cool
17:11
so we just tore the staircase out yeah
17:14
yeah
17:29
actually the belt has just rang School
17:30
is now out so we're going to have
17:32
kind of everything to ourselves for just
17:33
a little while
17:58
look at that three records are over
17:58
there in the corner that's cool that was
18:00
actually created by Drew stewson it did
18:03
back the future and Indiana Jones
18:06
yeah tons of them it's not an original
18:08
it's because it's not a full size it's
18:10
not a 41 by 27. look at that slogan when
18:14
school's over it's all over I don't
18:16
think it is that's awesome wait a second
18:18
they never even say that in the movie no
18:20
not an original I I don't think so I
18:23
think it's a reprint but that's a very
18:24
hard poster to get actually the original
18:26
one so yeah it's a rare I don't even own
18:28
one huge poster collection he's not
18:30
thinking about math or English because
18:32
at three o'clock he's history yeah it's
18:34
so good I'm definitely recognizing these
18:36
windows were used many many times
18:39
this staircase here is this the top
18:41
floor
18:42
so this is the top floor so there was a
18:44
lot that took place right over in the
18:46
kind of in this area you see these a lot
18:53
so you had to replace them same shape
18:53
though yeah they tried to so we had a
18:56
historical preservation architect that
18:59
was part of the team when we did the
19:00
remodel starting in like 2007-2008
19:05
and uh and so they tried as much as
19:08
possible to recreate so like that whole
19:11
ceiling in the library yeah that was
19:13
completely torn down and they redid it
19:15
okay very interesting
19:17
there might be
19:20
um and then there's
19:22
something oh we're going under there
19:24
um oh my Lord there's the other roof
19:26
piece you coming up Sean yeah just don't
19:29
look down
19:30
whatever you do
19:31
don't look as long as you just keep
19:33
going forward you'll be all right man
19:35
you got this
19:37
foreign
19:49
this is amazing we're going outside the
19:49
Jerry Mitchell door
19:57
oh yeah
19:57
this is the door holy crap this is it
20:00
right here this is the white little door
20:02
let's make sure we don't get along yeah
20:03
don't lock it don't lock it I've got no
20:05
I've got it you got the key all right
20:15
this is the actual door
20:15
that he walks out of here Casey walks
20:17
out of here the actor that played
20:18
and then
20:20
you kind of see over here
20:22
as it goes by obviously the air
20:25
conditioning units are a little bit
20:26
different than there were before but he
20:28
walks up here he contemplates what he
20:30
had told the buddy that he want to get
20:31
buddy the money back and
20:33
buddy Revell called him some names
20:36
they just decide you know what I am
20:38
going to fight him I asked for his money
20:40
back but who else said no refunds
20:44
wow this is awesome okay there is the
20:48
door
20:49
just want to show the door he walks out
20:51
of that's where we just climbed up here
20:53
is him walking out you can see different
20:55
kind of air conditioning units have been
20:58
added and then here is him contemplating
21:00
saying you know what I am going to fight
21:01
buddy Revel I am going to fight him with
21:03
the backdrop of these Salt Lake City
21:05
well Ogden I should say Ogden this is
21:07
not Salt Lake this is Ogden North of SLC
21:10
off in the background
21:12
I am amazed I am so
21:14
happy to be up here
21:16
big thanks to them letting us up here
21:19
did not think that was going to happen
21:21
that is freaking awesome
21:24
this is the door right here I mean that
21:26
is just amazing that the location scout
21:29
decided you know let's use let's use
21:31
this little area here we can have him
21:32
crawl out why would a student be allowed
21:34
to come up here
21:35
and do that
21:37
but he did
21:50
I am gonna fight buddy doing it
21:50
the old gem that's in the movie
21:53
completely changed now classrooms look
21:54
nothing the same the new gem is over
21:56
there so the gym and the bathroom's not
21:58
going to be able to match up but you
21:59
know it's been
22:00
a long time it's been 35 years
22:04
87 yeah it's been 35 years
22:07
all right heading back down
22:09
so this portion over here
22:11
that that's where the gym was now that
22:14
was the gem that portion that's sticking
22:15
out yep
22:18
it almost looks like so these windows I
22:20
think you might be able to see because
22:22
of the old gem Windows there on the top
22:24
yeah I mean they're the the restored
22:26
ones but yes that that's where that
22:28
would have been the balcony portion of
22:30
the gym because it was tiered right you
22:32
had that upper section yeah yeah and
22:33
then the lower section is there still a
22:35
stairs that goes up to those windows
22:42
uh uh we've got classrooms there now so
22:42
okay we can go over there and look if
22:43
you want that's where the gym was yes
22:45
yeah that'd be awesome all right now we
22:47
get to go down this
22:50
you want me to go first Sean you want to
22:51
go first you can go first you want me to
22:53
go first sure you can spot it yeah okay
22:55
you can catch me if I fall yeah that's
22:57
uh it looks pretty you think they had to
23:00
climb everybody up here
23:02
it's pretty wild to think about I wonder
23:04
if they did lifts they probably use a
23:06
lift yeah to get all the cast and crew
23:07
up you got this uh
23:09
so you glad you went up there hell yeah
23:11
as soon as I came down I went don't be
23:14
the [\h__\h]
23:22
just like buddy yeah buddy Revell would
23:22
have been
23:23
but we actually had a professional
23:26
artist painter that came in and so for
23:31
example these
23:33
um the the new door closers didn't match
23:36
up with the existing ones right yeah and
23:38
so
23:39
when they didn't match up he would come
23:41
in and he would hand paint like the wood
23:44
grain I mean if you look you can't tell
23:47
where an existing handle or an existing
23:50
screw and stuff was on these because he
23:52
would fill them in yeah they colored
23:54
them and then he hand painted the wood
23:56
grain lines back into it so these are
23:58
the original doors they pulled off every
24:01
one of them they had them all secured
24:03
and then he would go through one by one
24:05
and and restore it to the door all right
24:08
this moment here this is the third floor
24:10
this is the third floor this was also
24:12
used when the guy comes up wanting to
24:13
place the bets on who's got to win the
24:14
fight and all that and you kind of see
24:16
the windows as well he's like save it
24:17
for the fight
24:18
save it for the fight
24:20
he was wearing the beret
24:23
okay
24:24
back down to the Tiger
24:31
so that yeah that was where the whole
24:31
opening scene took place
24:33
and they kind of walked in and they're
24:34
just talking about the legend of Buddy
24:36
Revel
24:37
going in through there and then they go
24:39
in they see the Tiger
24:41
see this and they turn the corner and I
24:44
think Buddy ravel's Locker was down at
24:46
that end and also the
24:48
store the school store down there also
24:51
and you can see right behind Jerry is
24:52
that tiger and looks like there used to
24:54
be some glass where the current offices
24:56
this little window over here now is
24:59
still active actually someone's standing
25:00
at it right now a little information
25:02
shown right here
25:05
look at this
25:12
and that is all one take where the
25:12
camera continues rolling down they're
25:14
talking about
25:16
buddy Revell
25:24
and I think it goes down to here
25:24
and I believe that the school store
25:27
was right here
25:29
think
25:30
this may be right here
25:33
I think this was it right here
25:35
I think this might have been a okay this
25:38
is kind of confusing because he walks
25:39
all one take passes the tiger walks past
25:42
this we watch the clip over and over and
25:44
over seems as if the student store
25:45
should be right here we kind of mapped
25:47
it out followed along did the pacing
25:49
everything now a lot has been remodeled
25:52
but the student store there should have
25:55
been the door should have been right
25:56
there so we're kind of curious we're
25:57
going to go inside one of these other
26:00
doors
26:01
and just see if anything matches up in
26:04
there so this is kind of confusing but
26:06
this is the level that it's on again
26:08
it's been 35 years
26:14
and if that's the case this would have
26:14
been the window they would have looked
26:15
out to see Ravel out there
26:18
while this looks like completely
26:20
different it's not like a kitchen area
26:22
down in here
26:24
this is kind of tough this would have
26:25
been
26:26
I don't know it's tough to really tough
26:28
to figure out
26:29
but this definitely like kind of looks
26:31
like the sound so you think they removed
26:32
the the door that was there yeah the
26:35
door the door was there the door was
26:37
here so which means when the line lines
26:41
up they all walked in this door so we
26:44
got to see if that door might match up
26:45
so that's where the investigator walks
26:48
in yeah the the owner of the school
26:50
store all that
26:53
push-ups
26:55
going down here now and there's no way
26:57
that's so interesting so women right so
27:00
this is all kind of new so right this
27:03
part was here this was here but I think
27:05
this door wasn't I don't think they
27:06
probably just pulled it off okay I'm
27:08
guessing so this would have been it
27:09
there would have been a kind of a half
27:10
door this is where a lot of the movie
27:12
took place it was just right here
27:14
but right here is where Brian Andrews
27:16
would have walked up little Tommy Doyle
27:18
for Halloween yeah where he he bought
27:20
the first sheet of paper
27:27
so is this the door we got to go in okay
27:27
I think she just doesn't want her
27:28
students going coming into the back of
27:30
the lab portion of her but I think this
27:32
was the door that you would have turned
27:35
in and approached the cash register
27:37
which would have been over that way yeah
27:40
yeah on the other side of that wall back
27:42
there so the window they looked out of
27:45
would have been this wind over here in
27:46
the corner unless there was a window
27:48
where this wall is
27:50
there might have been a one I think
27:52
there is there's that window so this is
27:54
the window they look out it's really
27:55
difficult to match up really anything in
27:57
here but I'm noticing here see how they
27:59
have the windows here you have like kind
28:00
of a skinny piece in this very wide
28:02
piece here between Jerry's head kind of
28:05
looks like right here so you got the
28:07
kind of the skinny pylon the very wide
28:10
one of the microwave's on and the skinny
28:12
one there so it could be
28:13
right over in here but like I said very
28:15
very difficult and this wall that was
28:17
back here has been torn down too can you
28:19
see outside you can't really see outside
28:21
and if anybody shows back up to return
28:23
the money you can see the door over
28:29
could have been a wall here this could
28:29
have been the door that everyone walked
28:30
in to give the money it's just really
28:32
too tough to tell because it's been you
28:34
know three to three and a half decades
28:37
but we are standing in the spot for
28:39
three o'clock high that was the store
28:40
we're in the student store right now
28:43
we're in the store we're in the student
28:45
store look at this this was not used in
28:46
the movie which I'm surprised it wasn't
28:48
but this is the auditorium letting us in
28:50
just to kind of look around
28:52
this is incredible
28:54
take a take a walk down the aisle and
28:57
then take a look up okay down there
28:59
I'm surprised they never used this okay
29:07
yeah this is amazing this school isn't
29:07
because I mean just incredible the
29:08
architecture of this place look at this
29:10
this is the auditorium
29:24
these do you have in that photo it's
29:24
tough to tell it's like they're using
29:26
like a really widely you can see one
29:28
there trying to find buddy revell's
29:30
Locker we're trying to put the switch
29:32
plate up but it is very tough to tell
29:33
which one it was
29:35
now there's also one other angle looking
29:37
back the other way looking back this
29:40
direction from the locker
29:42
and it shows these doors open down here
29:44
now it does say 119 even though the
29:46
classrooms have changed numbers but I'm
29:48
noticing how this door is a little
29:49
closer to us than this door which does
29:52
sync up and then down there where the
29:53
tiger is and that glass is where the
29:56
the new offices and that was the old
29:58
office class which has been replaced and
30:00
they're using a wide lens right
30:03
that's where the Clock Was yeah based on
30:07
that Archway there you see this door is
30:10
closer to us than that door is so I'm
30:12
thinking it was here
30:18
yeah so probably Buddy's Locker would
30:18
have been in this section here
30:19
like somewhere even here these have all
30:22
been replaced
30:24
so and the fact that they've moved some
30:26
of these doors on this side it could
30:28
have been moved too you know
30:30
so tough to tell or the gym one so this
30:33
is kind of what it looks like and well
30:34
this is what it looks like in the movie
30:36
yeah it's very tough end of the numbers
30:37
there's a lot of flies in around here
30:40
all right off to the gym I think we got
30:42
almost everything so far this part used
30:44
to be the gym that's the old gym yeah
30:47
there is no one room 119 anymore no it's
30:51
not even another thing on there it says
30:52
119.
30:54
all right cool okay now we're stepping
30:56
into the completely renovated original
30:58
gym so we're walking into where
31:02
the pep rally was
31:04
and all that looks completely different
31:08
check it out are the windows in here
31:11
oh
31:13
that's amazing and then these are the
31:15
trusses are the rafters the rafters from
31:17
the gym see you can see where we had to
31:19
build it into the wall yeah so the the
31:21
bleachers were right here yes yeah holy
31:24
cow look at that
31:26
that is awesome
31:28
all right so this is the
31:31
the scene where he's trying to say he's
31:33
going to give him the money back
31:35
and he gives them the money and then he
31:37
decides he still wants to fight him the
31:39
thing that's cool is you can see the
31:40
rafters up top
31:42
and everything yeah it's still the
31:44
Raptors are there and the windows are
31:45
still there with the sun kind of peering
31:47
out now that is pretty pretty awesome
31:49
bleachers were all over there
31:51
and there's the one moment when Jerry
31:53
realizes buddy is there and like Buddy's
31:55
standing up here on the bleachers kind
31:57
of looking peering down
31:58
as well all the shearing was going on in
32:03
that is wild and another photo of Jerry
32:05
there so you see Jerry there like kind
32:08
of looking and there's the windows
32:09
behind him look at that that is so cool
32:12
I don't know if this stuff just
32:13
fascinates me
32:15
there it goes going back into focus and
32:17
the where where
32:18
Ravel was standing would be kind of up
32:21
over
32:22
that corner right up there what about
32:25
that balcony level yeah we're we're at
32:28
this level right here so it's not quite
32:31
but if you built a floor shade across
32:34
that's about the level okay gotcha
32:36
gotcha okay that makes sense there's a
32:39
set of stairs over here some music
32:42
acquire band over here and then the
32:46
black box theater back over there for
32:49
drama
32:53
and this is where buddy walks out we're
32:53
out here earlier
32:55
and this is where the fight took place
32:56
right here in this main little Courtyard
32:58
and then one thing I like all hanging
33:00
out the windows yeah they were all out
33:02
the windows they were all up here
33:04
like a thousand extras
33:07
did they slam the windows or something I
33:09
don't remember them slamming anyone does
33:11
it may have just been when they were
33:12
close to the the co-worker I was talking
33:15
to you about he said hey when they
33:18
closed Allman I don't know if it was
33:19
just after this oh they broke up or
33:20
whatever they were all single pain and
33:22
it busted oh I could say yeah there were
33:24
extras all through here leaning out yeah
33:34
runs up there there is a wall there but
33:34
you can't make out what it is oh really
33:37
yeah but this is definitely I mean
33:38
completely new building going between
33:40
the two buildings this is the new gem
33:43
now yeah
33:48
oh yeah there are where was okay yeah
33:48
that's where the supports for the canopy
33:49
was that went really getting chased
33:51
there and he throws the note down so
33:53
there had to have been something over
33:57
I'm glad you pointed that out because
33:59
that's where the covering of the roof
34:00
was I was kind of wondering
34:10
back out to where the parking lot was
34:10
now notice this bait or this is the shop
34:12
building windows kind of all match up in
34:14
this little kind of Gap is where
34:16
Sean just recreated the run where Jerry
34:18
goes up but there is that shop door bay
34:21
door there which means
34:24
the one scene where Jerry's running out
34:25
tries to get away in his mom's station
34:27
wagon was down here the doorway used to
34:30
be over in this corner here
34:36
a lot of stuff matches up but a lot of
34:36
stuff has changed but there's enough to
34:37
match out of that door and I think it's
34:39
this very door right here yeah see if
34:42
that little indentation on the side
34:43
still there yeah that's definitely this
34:45
is the door he comes out he goes to the
34:47
parking lot so there was a building
34:48
there it was the electronics and
34:50
ceramics that was just on the other side
34:52
oh okay so there was another building
34:54
over there
34:55
Jerry busts out of this door and the
34:58
screen grab I just showed
35:00
yeah because there's a staircase right
35:01
behind there so definitely that is it
35:03
you see the staircase too and he turns
35:06
this building was not here and then he
35:07
goes over to his mom's station wag
35:09
because his car
35:10
had a flat tire at the beginning of the
35:12
movie
35:13
so he has to grab his mom station wagon
35:14
with the custom plate instead of them
35:16
parked over here where there used to be
35:18
yeah a parking lot amazing
35:25
these are things that
35:25
they're hard to figure out that is neat
35:28
the exterior of the building is now
