donate it's cash app lid Wetzel it's one word um again thank you so much and let's begin these [Music] questions um so the first one is what do you do for work a few of you asked this um I'm a medical coder full-time uh the next one is what places would you like to explore in the future um there's a few of them I'd like to uh go back to The Gallery at e riew um that's in Cleveland I went there as a head and I know it's like a nearly dead Mall um it's awesome uh I'd like to go to Warner suy Observatory that's in Cleveland um I would like to go back to Bell Isle in Detroit um that has an abandoned Zoo um okay so next question is [Music] is how often are you in the Cleveland area um I'm not there all the time but I do go back there quite often I have family there I grew up there so uh every month or two maybe um but this summer I was uh I was staying there for an extended period which is why my videos um most of my videos were from there there um is there a place you want to explore on your bucket list or must do I would love to get inside an abandon Kmart cuz I have not done that yet um or an abandoned mall or like a headquarters of like Kmart or something uh how did you get interested in herck now many of you pretty much asked this question more or less um so how I got interested I'm going to trace it back to 2009 um I was a young teenager uh late teens actually um but uh so in my um Hometown uh there was this this abandoned uh school for I guess they call it like a school for Wayward girls so it basically means that um pregnant teenage girls so it was ran by nuns and uh they I I think what they were doing wasn't I don't know I think they were like maybe abusing the girls there but um anyways uh it was called Merry Crest and it was super super creepy I think it Clos in like 03 or something but uh I went in there and I explored it with my friends and I just it it was so astonishing like how bad the place looked after just a few years and uh there was so much to see like like the classroom room the medical rooms the the gymnasium the uh the um like Auditorium and everything and just the fact that it was a church and just it was the place was super super creepy and uh that's what I want to trace it back to that's why I want to trace my Urban exploring back to is that place uh but also uh just growing up with JGA Lake uh Dover Lake and then watching those places close and those places were such a huge part of my childhood and uh once like once that place closes you you still feel like you want to go back right but like you can't but you still got to go see it like there's a curiosity there and um yeah and just growing up with like Kmart and then watching that close and just all that combined just having a lot of nostalgia and curiosity um do you like Vitamin Water yeah I like Vitamin Water I'll I'll buy it sometimes uh do you like video games uh yes I do I like um like older video games like Sonic is my favorite like Sega Genesis um which is what I you know grew up playing and then like Pokemon I was big big into that um Mario and Donkey Kong and stuff like yeah all basically all the old ones um and I'll still play them too oh okay um have you thought about exploring the Old Mansfield Reformatory um uh I would go there yeah I would go there um what high school did you graduate from I graduated from Independence High School in Independence Ohio which is a suburb of Cleveland um how long have you lived in Ohio for I've lived in Ohio for my whole life except for minus 3 years which I lived in Florida for um that was more recent years too okay um what inspired you to do YouTube um so when I was living in Florida uh the year was 2020 I you know I watched all the abandoned uh videos and I you know everybody mostly was doing them in the north and I got you know homesick and stuff and I'm like oh there's like Kmarts around here I can film uh abandoned ones there weren't none open at the time but uh so I went out and I filmed a few Kmarts uh in Okala New Smyrna and uh Belleview but those videos uh are no longer on my channel because my channel got hacked but uh that's why I how I started YouTube and uh when I did it I had a lot of fun and uh then I put it down for quite some time like years uh because I guess I didn't have like much confidence in it and I just figured nobody would click on it but uh um about a year ago um I started back up and I don't remember why exactly I think just out of curiosity for seeing these places but in October of uh 2023 I went with my friend to Century 3 Mall uh and did a walk around I mean I wanted to get in but um I did not understand how anybody got in there but uh so I didn't get in but I did a walk around and you can uh see that it's I think it's one of my first videos on here if not it might be the first um and that got me back into YouTube and from then on I'm like I got to do it because uh that video actually did like pretty well so I was like oh people are like watching my stuff I I didn't think people would actually click on my stuff so um I was pretty thrilled about that um and then uh the rest is history basically um I would like to see an abandoned theme par yeah I would like to go back to Jo Lake um I went there in 2012 took photos I uploaded them to my Facebook but my Facebook is now gone uh so I don't think those photos are ever coming back so I need to get back uh any plans to film in giaga County uh no like definite plans but I would go there if you like had a suggestion or something um how many brothers and sister sisters do you have um I have four I have two older brothers and two younger sisters um and yes you're right I am a middle kid how could you tell uh do you ever run into squatters uh no I have not um I've ran into like people and stuff but not squatters like just I don't know what the people were doing just walking around they they weren't filming ran into like people just walking I I'm not sure what they were doing uh and also at the abandon McDonald's that I got into uh somebody tried to sell me drugs um when I first got there but he was on the street corner um and I just have waited for him to leave before I uh looked at the place um what part of Ohio are you from I'm from Northeast Ohio uh what is the worst abandoned place you have ever visited uh it's probably the rubber plant in Youngtown that was like the most um decrepit Place sketchy all that um have you thought about traveling to other states uh to visit the abandoned places uh yeah um I actually I already have uh I've gone to Michigan Pennsylvania and New York uh and yes I would travel sure because that's um you gotta get content somehow so um what is your favorite animals um oh look it's getting pretty dark outside uh my favorite animals are my cats um but I guess like if you're talking about like wild animals uh I like cppy baras porcupines uh and leopards H um have you thought about looking into the Big Lots that are starting closed um I might I don't see any closing around me um quite yet but uh yeah I might look at it um do you take someone off camera for safety uh yes I do um a lot of my videos uh there is someone with me but I don't put the person on the camera um and it is for safety and um not every video but definitely the ones like you know the rubber plant in youngst toown and stuff that's like sketchy or like in a bad neighborhood or like that McDonald's that abandoned McDonald's I got inside like yes I will have a person with me um now if it's something like a Burger King in seven h like no I'm not going to take somebody cuz that's a nice area like but I do take precaution I do take a person with me so yes um okay what is your favorite part of Ohio um I think my favorite part of Ohio is Appalachian uh if you guys have ever been down to the area of like Lake hope or Hawking Hills like the you know the part that's closer to like West Virginia I I like that area it's really nice um uh how do you maintain yourself in such a happy mental state uh I like what I do um I'm glad that you um find me to be happy um that's awesome uh but yeah loving what you do helps a lot um what is your favorite kind of abandoned Place uh to take a video of um probably the super decrepit ones like the P the p&le um rail yard or um the Rubber Factory uh but if we're not talking about like crumbling into the ground places I've grown to really enjoy the abandoned Sears cuz they're really large and it just feels like I have them all myself um what place has always intrigued you and why and I like your artwork thank you very much on the compliment um I like Bell Isle in Detroit I went there in 2015 uh and the whole place is like it's just Eerie um even though it's not all abandoned and there is functioning Parts but it just there's there's something about it that's very creepy um the beach is really awesome there's an abandoned Zoo uh at the time there was an abandoned uh uh water slide but just the area by the beach just seemed like a little bit neglected not abandoned but just like day outdated and maybe like they don't have the money to maintain it and it it gave it like an abandoned is feel so um it's just Eerie it's it's intriguing um favorite retail stores uh is Kmart uh Value City and ases uh top five favorite restaurants uh is let's see um Edam mommy Ramen uh I like uh Dave's Cosmic Subs uh Jack and do pizza um nafnaf it's like a Mediterranean uh chipot way and then uh see for the fifth one uh probably something like well I went to this place recently called hello beastro and uh I like that place it really um healthy and like I like anywhere that won't like you know doesn't serve like just um greasy food cuz I don't eat greasy food it doesn't agree with me so anywhere where you can get like full and not eat um have to eat like greasy food um yeah and those are all the questions um hopefully that answers them um hopefully you guys maybe learned some something it's getting really dark outside oh the only light is uh my computer so um I have a lot of videos upcoming I have a lot of videos filmed uh and it's going to be a lot of fun to post
