Despite nature taking over, this is probably one of the best preserved abandoned sites you'll ever see. Thanks to being an island, its naturally protected from vandals and the only people who go there have been very respectful to the now fragile structures. Its a refreshing sight for sure after exploring so many abandoned industrial sites that kids just trash.

@ScientificallyStupid 3 жыл бұрын

I visited it when I was 7 in '84 and I can still remember what it was like. I love seeing these videos- it just reminds you how relentless nature really is, a few years without people and the trees are taking over, and it's relative inaccessibility keeps it preserved. Very different from abandoned malls or subway stations.

Well that shit hole belongs to them so if they don't want to clean it up then they don't have to and no one is supposed to be there so no one has to look at it. Same as your room when your on your own, your shit your mess to look at and no one can tell you shit about it.

I remember going to Walt Disney World in the late 70's and early 80's. At that point the only attractions were The Magic Kingdom, River Country, and Discovery Island. My grandfather and I would always spend 2-3 hours at Discovery Island each trip. I miss that place. I know that most of those exhibits moved to Animal Kingdom but I've always disliked that park. I get nostalgic every time I ride past it on a boat from one resort to another. Great video.

Your channel has really made me nostalgic for childhood trips to Disney World! Recently, my dad found an old box full of Disney park maps, tickets, and various brochures from the 80s and 90s. It's amazing to see just how much as changed, and I'm actually bummed my kids will never get to experience stuff like Discovery Island.

I went to Discovery Island twice as a class field trip. The second time in 8th grade (after being late because the car broke down), our guide turned out to be a woman that had been an art teacher at our school when we were in elementary school and had worked for Disney Animation before that.

I worked there for a year in 1979. I know ever aspect of the island. I prepared the good for all the animals as well as collecting the trash from the bins and cleaning cages. For all the animals. It was a beautiful paradise. A dream job. But I left it because of the neglect and abuse the animals sustained by the then curator of the island. Way too many animals were dying. That wasn’t what I signed up for. So I quit.
