"shattered dreams" that's an interesting way to put it but I like it

Mello Jello: look at this dude :/

I know right

Not always shattered dreams! Some people lived out their dreams in these places until they moved on in life or passed away.

I mean, it was almost definitely owned by rich business people whose dreams were for the hotel to make them even more money.

Roof leaking badly will cause this deterioration

Ikr! It's amazing. If there's no roof leaking and such I bet the place would look the same as before always.

@@predilectionist Yeah the roof, once it is compromised the rest of the building quickly deteriorates. but if the roof is taken care of the building would look pristine for centuries.

Also no direct sunlight on the ruined up rooms for most part of the day maybe Also, he says the rooms above look better so there’s slight chances of the roof collapsing in, probably the windows shattered

I could be wrong but this very easily could be damage caused by the tsunami that hit Japan...in which case the reason only the bottom off the walls, furniture, floors etc are damaged and molding from being submerged in 7 feet of water. Japan got messed up from that tsunami.

Take nothing except pictures. Leave nothing except footprints. Break nothing except silence.

And they don’t talk the whole effing time and keep turning the camera to film themselves. They are great

Or they just don’t wanna go to prison

that’s why they’re called proper people

....or the cash register suddenly go "dingg", while opening the drawer... Man, that would have me freak out.

If the guy from Frankotv would go there you could bet your ass that this piano would be playing!

Or if you see a clown down the hallway..

Woad25 Explorer: *pulls out concealed carry pistol* Seventeen year old clown: *shits pants.*

Yeah, that seemed pretty obvious...

Did I miss it in the video, or did they explai n why the island became a ghost island and the tourism went bust? Do you happen to know ?

@@makeuplover6852 Tourism declined. It happens. Unfortunately. What a beautiful area.

@@RealBlueMarlin Like so many countries. It is amazing how people (locals) don't see the beauty and unique potential of their on countries and go elsewhere on vacation. Sad really.

@@makeuplover6852 it's actually not a ghost island. easy google shows that there are 7000 plus residents on it as of 2018 and there is even an airport on the island with daily flights from tokyo haneda airport. Quite a distance from tokyo but definitely not a ghost island.

Take nothing except pictures. Leave nothing except footprints. Break nothing except silence.

I'd like to add TPP dont use bgm and just record the place natural sounds.

This is because they are raised to have respect to and for others!!

MrStrikecentral simp

Casey Lance it’s pretty incredible. The book “The World Without Us” by Alan Weisman describes in detail exactly what happens step by step as the world reclaims our modern structures, assuming humans vanished on the day prior to page one. His research and scientific understanding of the processes make it a more than fascinating read, if you’re at all interested.

@@danieldmyers That sounds great, I'll definitely check that out. Thanks!

@@danieldmyers Just watch the Planet of the apes reboots lol. Pretty accurate if u ask me.

Bill Cordell mold only affects those with a weak immune system or those who are allergic.

@@Ronin.Samurai Yeah I know right and even then the effects are grossly exaggerated

@@waltersobchak7275 Depends on the person. I had black mold in my laundry because of an old washing machine that was never cleaned properly and I felt like death for months before figuring out what it was, because I have an allergic reaction to it.

@@HUNGRYHUSKY it’s not something that is detrimental in the long run. Had similar experience with it. When I wasn’t around it, it cleared right up. These people aren’t living with it only exposed a short time if at all.

Ok THANK YOU! So I'm not alone, but I really don't get why these videos help 😆 they just make me feel so much better! Better than an antidepressant 👍🏽

shut up

Me too I love watching, the guys are respectful and no swearing and screaming at every opportunity it's nice to watch. As soon as I get half hour peace I'll have a cuppa and watch the proper people 😁

I’m glad I’m not the only one that feels that way. I only recently started watching because I was worried it would be ghost stories and jump scares. I’m so glad it isn’t.

Their videos and voices are very calm/calming and they can be pretty grounding in anxiety attacks by helping you calm down and then see that where you are is safer relatively

I was walking through a Kyoto Market with 1000s of people on the street and saw lost woman's purse laying on the side walk, open, showing money, credit cards, chain purse, etc. People just looked down at it and walked on by.

@@harthenry Exactly.

Yep. They have a strong moral code

They did go to a abandoned park in Japan, the Nara Dreamland, in a moment of the recording they notice a group of people breaking the abandone toys and arcade, so vandalism exist everywhere is just occur less in some county.

They're on a island. This place would be vandalized on the main land.

I think some of the reason is the Japanese are terrified of the 'justice' system they have there. 99.8% conviction rate. You heard that right, statistically 998 people out of 1000 will be charged with crimes in Japan if they're arrested. Yeah we should totally follow the fascist, authoritarian state of Japan that still forces people into hard labor after being imprisoned for something they might not have even committed. Even if you're one of the lucky 2 that don't get charged, the population will see you as a degenerate. You got arrested for a reason, and you got off because you were lucky. That's how Japan views crimes. So basically 1000/1000 people arrested in Japan are fucked. *Yes I know the US still has slavery via Prison. Still not as bad as Japan. 99.8% conviction rate is straight up "You're guilty, end of story."

mereclander they believe heavily in superstitions and spirits so they stay away

mereclander maybe it’s because generally more poeple have respect for something that’s not theirs. Also because those sort of people that do break things or do are stealing scrap just haven’t reached this place yet.

Your bias is colouring what you are seeing. I see a lobby with chandeliers and missing chandeliers. Black holes with hanging chains where the decorative ceiling rose has been ripped out when somebody helped themselves to a chandelier

No one should learn from Japan. Each nation should be unique or else what's the point of going there.

You guys are awesome too. I binge on your channel as well proper people. Keep going strong 💪!

But they need to put safety first.....mold exposure is very dangerous to your health.....let them know it’s not entertaining if they put themselves at risk......FTD.....🙏🏻👍🏻😌

@@luvsnowblading1618 they wear protective gear to prevent things like this

Yaaaas BSF I love you 💗

chillieice I feel the same way

Zach RBB yeah mold is not the only worry though. These guys encounter chipping lead paint and possibly even asbestos, among other things.

Yeah I’m wondering if they got their rabies shots and such because of all the stuff they’re exposed to

Boots. A good pair of steel toed walking boots. Often times I hear them say "We should have worn our boots" as they splash down into a puddle.

No, I agree with you. I would do the same thing

It would be tough to bring legit respirators because I’m sure airports check their luggage and that would be suspicious

Bringing quality respirators through customs raises flags.

I mean, I’m sure a store somewhere there would sell respirators. That would get around the “bringing respirators through customs” issue.

They do when they’re in the US....but would raise serious concerns to customs if they tried to bring respirators with them into Asia

That doesn't remove the smell

Yeah, I was thinking those rooms must be more seaside. Saltwater and the full brunt of the wind will decay just about anything.

A lot of air con units visible at 23:00, even if the windows had stayed in place it wouldn't take long for a building to decay. Buildings rely on a fairly constant internal environment. Without it rubber perishes, metal expands/contracts more, before you know it you have leaks and water gets in. After that, the decay is rather rapid. I wonder if there are any photos of it in its prime?

Good observation. Decay is present in places where there's water intrusion, weather it's coming from open windows or leaking water pipes. In rooms where there's no water intrusion, there's hardly or no decay at all.

Thank you Captain Obvious

Life is so much nicer without Trump supporters.

I can already hear it now. Just walk into a guest room, and all of a sudden you just hear “Good morning! You have been in suspension for nine nine nine nine, nine nine ni-“

Late to add, but no Christmas decorations. I attribute it to the cultural differences.

Only scumbags are vandals. They are criminals who don't profit from their criminality. They are the lowest scumbag in terms of criminals. It is easy to understand why somebody would be a thief, it's impossible to understand why somebody would be a vandal.

@@richardwicks4190 yeah, I'd take the plates and cups and pretty much anything that's nice from such a place because I feel it better they get used than forgotten. But to destroy the dishes, cups, and who knows what else, now that's just horrible.

@@tobiasziesmann1720 Again, I place theft well above vandalism. Stealing what is essentially garbage isn't any crime, you're merely cleaning up at worst, or making use of something already. Is anybody in anyway hurt by stealing from an abandoned area? But simple destruction, that's just being an asshole. Vandals are the worst criminals, because their criminality doesn't help them and at the very best won't help anybody else. They are complete assholes.

I don't even remember an episode where they took a souvenir.

Mold: "This isn't even my final form!"

This isn't your average, everyday mold. This is ... advanced mold.

I love all the urban explorer expeditions. Guys please wear a respirator. I know they don’t look cool but your later health risks are extremely high.

@@metal4life1966 what are the health risks of mold? Runny nose?

@@vikrantsingh47 That's no fun at all. There can be cancer and serious lifetime lung disease, cancer maybe only from long or repetitive exposure but lung disease can come after being exposed to some sorts of mold just once. There is more in the air and in the matresses etc than meets the eye... And there are some things you really don't want to breathe in, grown undisturbed over such a large time.

Damon it’s on a island so not many people can go to the jotle

At least they have fucking done something about it unlike the US.

misterteaification dude I had to replay it cus WUT creepy

3:55 If you look on the whiteboard it says 18/8/2019 on it so someone had been there recently lol so not totally abandoned lol

@@ShotoTodoroki-qs3ip I expect that was an explorer. I doubt the one in 2008, who left a CD, was an explorer.

@misterteaification True. That makes sense.

Also that was a CD of the song Caramelldansen

Because you were witness to this?

freethrice common sense my guy.

How do you know I’m not right, eh?!

I knew it!!!!

@bakugou shrimp the fact that physical copies of caramelldansen exist is a sin within itself

Nana-chan also, because i think they said it closed in 2006, and the disk was from 2008

bakugou shrimp the fact that their is a physical copy means that humanity is fucked.

I remembered that cover, too!^^

If a place closes down due to a lack of money, then they probably don't have the funds to move things out.

LET US NOT FORGET the cute and adorable ghost doodle next to it with "Boo!" written by it. It's only seen for a fraction of a moment, but it made me smile.

@@ShyVioletIsShy check it at 4:02, I dont think it says Boo, plus if you look closer it doesn't look cute to me

Shy Violet It’s a harp seal

you're right! i looked at this and felt like crying and amazed at the same time...i'm happy not to be the only one to be sentimental about this! :)

I know, right? I can fall asleep to these videos.

Unlike humans, nature makes use of everything and nothing gets wasted.

@Bruce strkland lol

*Yes - I noticed right away. Japanese, and most Asian people, seem to not want to trash, destroy, vandalize places, or steal everything. Such a great difference from what people do here in the USA.*

Lord Tetra look it Paris tho

@Lord Tetra because Americans just disrespect shit and don't care for anything, and I'm saying this as an American myself

Not just by people. My grandma's house was completely trashed by raccoons since she went to the nursing home. A gang of teenaged thugs would have done less damage. At least they didn't have spray paint...

Being isolated on an island probably helped. If I wanted to plunder the hotel for scrap metal, how would I carry it all away?

Good eye. I was wondering if there's people already in there, but hiding.

Agreed ! Great work from you guys too 👍

I love your channel too Devin! In fact when they were in one of your videos as guest I subscribe to them as well and now binge this channel!

This is a what happens when you have a homogeneous society.

Carpathian What does homogeny have to do with anything?

@@sydney6486 you'll figure it out

Sydney Smith I guess this guy only likes heterogenous people. Also btw I’m sure this applies for most other countries than just the US.

Honestly..I'd rather see people "steal" things and put them to use or pawn them for some much needed money than see all those perfectly usable items just decay with no purpose in some abandoned building for decades. Vandalism sucks though.

The owners killed themselves

That’s shit how they killed them selves

It's on an island!! Probably not worth it after shipping it out. It's old and outdated now anyway if any of it even works?

If Americans can ship all their plastics to China for recycling (or we used to) then it's possible to ship other materials to other parts of the world for scrapping, reclamation, or recycling.

i recognized it as well when i saw it, it was released in 2001 so maybe it was there already before it shut down. crazy though since its a Swedish nightcore remix and nothing Japanese. its probably also the first nightcore remix ever.

You got it right. The Japanese remix release (that exact CD) didn't exist until 2008. A company named Quake Inc. (Japan) gained the rights and published that disc. Quake became Pony Canyon, and then Exit Tunes, btw. It might have been an asset liqudation crew that left that CD behind.

Libri Lector Bless you for linking this （ ; ; ）Oh god it’s 11 years old...I feel myself turning to dust

I honestly thought that was Love Live at first.

I was thinking the same thing ...isn't beautiful that there is a small society left that doesn't just vandalise and destroy things for no reason but to be destructive and destroy things .... I can never understand what drives humans to be so horrible ....this is like a time capsule...being destroyed naturally by nature

I agree! Surely they could have been put to use elsewhere ! Makes me so sad, when I see beautiful things like this going to waste.😢

As a pianist I'm really sad to see them in this state, everytime I see one in those videos I'm like press E#, F or G♭

🐹🌻🐥🌿😇

AbandonedExplorationTeam i’ll be scared of the ghosts creeping behind me 🤣🤣

Or do both. Do their current style, and upload the entire thing in 360 degrees

Nah, I woud to. It's sad to see nice stuff rot away instead of being used and cared for by someone.

There is nothing wrong about taming what is inside a abonded building, take all the dishes if you know a use for them.

Proper etiquette for UrbEx is to not take anything from the sites so that you can preserve the site. It's also so future explorers can have the same experience while checking out the buildings. They've talked before about it being disrespectful to take things from these places. "If everyone decided to take something, there will eventually be nothing left."

I think that destroying stuff for no reason or taking something just to take it apart and sell it's raw materials is bad. But if you see something and you know a good use for it, better than just sitting in an abandoned complex, why wouldn't you take it? Just because of some urbexers in the future? Knowing that everything will be destroyed without mercy if they find a new use for the land in the future?

I would NEVER take anything from there. That is in Japan NOT in the U.S, what I'm trying to say is places like that in Asia us is a tradition "you will have a bad omen following you" and you will get sick until death. This is the truth. You can Google it. DO NOT take anything from places that is abandoned ever from Asia.

random commenter Is the last of us a movie or a book??

It’s a game
