What a golden opportunity this was! A huge thanks to the guys that let us bring our cameras in and take a tour. We'll have to send them this video!

SO COOL you two documented your childhood and are still friends. What you two have are priceless.

Can we get these guys some awards??? THIS is the kind of thing that KZfaq should be used for. Truly feel good stuff.

5 years ago, I bought my childhood home from the previous owners. There was still a lot of old features as there was in the 80s. The same phone has still hanging on the wall. Why they kept it there all those years is beyond me. But, every single day I have a flood of memories. I’m so glad that you were able to experience this. So happy for you.

This is so amazingly done 😳✊🙏❤️

Can't thank these two laid back cool dudes enough for letting you in. This is how a very nice video was created.

Dude I got emotional seeing that. Especially when the video blurred into your dad shaving in the bathroom all those years ago. What a special moment you had. Loved this video

As an 80’s teen this has to be one of the most comforting and wholesome things on the Tubes thanks guys! :)

Born in '72 and this is so cool to see how we all used to be! Life is so much more complicated now than it ever was then... Being so connected to everything and everyone all the time kinda sucks. I am writing this at midnight where I live because I cannot get back to sleep after some jackass from work called me on my cell phone to look at something on the computer connected via the internet from home... none of that would have happened back then, and I'd be getting a peaceful night sleep. Miss the old ways more than ever lately.

That is exactly what this channel is all about who knew 30+ years later they could look at all of their younger years, and where they are now we all get to check out their memories as entertainment. This is exactly what their channel is been built from from the very beginning,

My parents bought my childhood home in 73 right after I turned 1. I bought it from them in 08. Some of us never leave home, lol. I am happy there was some cool people who let you come in to see it, not everyone would be that nice.

The current occupants were so nice and the editing is FIRE on this with the flashbacks!!! I still live in my childhood home... (of 47 years) wish I had videos from way back but maybe someday I can do some kind of montage with photos... hm... 🤔

I love that you went home again - Those dudes living in the house now seemed real cool. Thank you Eric, Darrell and Larry

I'm glad my parents are still living in their same house since 1993. I still occasionally visit them since I am about 30 minutes away from them. They used to live in a double wide mobile home in the mid 70s until 1993, and it is still there to this day right next door to them.

Wow. You were so fortunate that your old house had such nice, chill owners. A lot of people wouldn't have been so welcoming, that's for sure.

Eric and Darrell I love what you do! My brothers and I had to sell the family house last year after my dad passed away. Thankfully, I got the opportunity to move back in with my dad to take care of him for his final years. We were able to bond and make additional memories in the home. The day that I moved out, I walked the entire house and property and filmed my final walk through. I swear I could hear my mom’s voice yelling “dinner!!” from the kitchen. I could see family members gathered in the living room watching football on thanksgiving. I could visualize my dad working at his tool bench in the basement. Whether big events or small moments, every room had so many memories attached to them. And I took them all in on my final walk through that home. That’s when I realized exactly what you said in the final line of this video “Home isn’t a physical place, home are the memories you keep inside “. Thank you again for the reminder!

Imagine how cool itd be just living in some random House and you find out there's all these neat videos made there before you were born. Also there was that one shot at the window where you edited in 80s you into the same place present day, I think more stuff like that would be cool

I revisited my childhood home 20 years ago. Lived there for 13 years from '75 to '88, left when I was 18. I didn't even recognize the place it had all changed inside and out. Had so many happy memories there. I made a games room in the front room complete with a 5 foot pool table and games consoles and had many friends around. I became an Amiga gamer not long after leaving. Even with that we were still very active and went out a lot. I've tried contacting my old friends but they are all settled down and not really interested in revisiting their past and some of them live in other countries or too far from me. I've hardly changed except I have my own place now and still game a lot. Nice to see friendships like yours still lasting this long and able to share together the memories you have from those times.

The house I grew up in (1970s/80s) was on a street with about 20 homes in total. Probably 15-20 years ago, even though the house was still in good condition, it was demolished, and a new home was built for cognitively disabled adults. I'm happy they have a nice place to live, but it's very sad that I'm unable to see my old home anymore. Every other home on the street is still there. They were probably built in the 1940s-50s era. I will just have to keep the memories.❤

That is so cool.

It's my dream to live in a place like this... looks so peaceful , silent...

I love how you seamlessly blended the old with the new footage

This is why spirts cling to a home there is so many memories

I'm in my 40s and both my parents have long since passed, while my childhood friends have all scattered throughout the country. Some have unfortunately passed as well. Revisiting my childhood home only brought me pain, and wish I would've refrained. Darrell's right, "going home again" is best experienced through happy memories.

I haven't been able to revisit my childhood home aside from doing occasional drive by's. The house I was able to revisit at least virtually was my grandparents home. My grandfather sold it in 1984 when I was 18 and it had been owned by the same person until 2018. My grandparents had it built for them about 1957. I noticed in October of 2018 there was an estate sale there. I wasn't able to go as I was going to be 1500 miles away but my brother, cousin and aunt and uncle all went and my brother took video of walking through the house. It was almost exactly the same 30+ years later right down to the wood stove that my uncle made my grandparents in the 70s still sitting in the living room. A couple months later I saw it was for sale and again my schedule wouldn't allow me the time to go see it in person but I saved every picture that was part of the online listing. At that point the wood stove was gone, sold in the estate sale, but the house was really untouched for all those years. There were so many memories of huge family Thanksgivings and Christmases there that came back seeing those rooms again.

Awww you have me filled with tears and happiness. Seeing you guys go back and talk about the times you did certain things in certain areas of the home was incredible. You guys really take me back in time to a place that I too miss terribly. Times were so different and it seemed like they were "STILL" compared to now. Thanks again. Love you guys ❤️🥰

Living my dream

Loving your videos. I grew up in the same era, and what an era it was. I am Australian but its still great to see the 80's nostalgia. (BTW...The blonde boy in this video looks like Johnny from Karate Kid)

This brings tears to my eyes. So glad you could go home for the day. I wish I could to my old home. But as I am writing this your final line I just heard moved me to more tears. You see most of my family has now passed on , my brothers mom, grandparents, list goes on but we were all alive together in the 80s.. OH I MISS those days ,,,, your video really struck a heart string in me! I love how you did the video with the past over lap! I have no videos of my childhood but you are right they live on in my heart and mind forever and forever I can go back "home' anytime.

That was pretty cool. All the flashback clips blended in with how the house looks currently. Those memories definitely came flooding back for y'all. It was two guys were super cool to let you into the house and record and look around and everything.

the guys was so nice to let you in.

3:45 is amazing editing and amazing flashback

I've seen the VHS tapes of those kids pop up all over my feed and wondered at the time, "Why would I want to watch this?" But then I saw this video completely through. And I see why those videos were so popular now. Great editing by the way. How you've matched up snippets of the VHS recordings in with the newer home, great job!

It's was too awesome to go back through the old house! I wish I could see my childhood home. But it was torn down a few years ago due to a very bad foundation. You're right Darrell that home is always in the memories and heart.

I still live in my childhood home I’ve lived in since I was 4 years old. It will be 20 years I’ve lived there in May. I know I still live at home but I need to save a lot of money to be able to afford to move out. It’s alright though, I wouldn’t have it any other way right now. My first home that I lived in from birth to age 4 is just down the street, I sadly haven’t seen it since and probably won’t since we don’t know the lady currently renting the house very well. Anyway glad you got to see your childhood home again!

So pleased I've found this channel, amazingly nostalgic videos, absolutely love them.

Criminally undervisted KZfaq Channel. You guys are the best. Keep these treasures online forever.

Watching the dad shaving made the nostalgia synapses in my brain fire off immediately. My dad is still alive, but I used to sit and watch him shave all the time as a kid.

I still live fairly close to my childhood house. The few times I pass by it, I realize it was just a time and place in my life that's long gone. Family/friends that are gone and those carefree innocent childhood days. It's more melancholy than pleasant for me. Sort of like visiting a cemetery.

Wow so glad you got to see the interior in person 😊

My besyt friend growing lives in my childhood home now.

This was such a cool video to watch!!! Thanks guys!

Lol “The charm”. Super cool to reminisce. Glad you guys are sharing this with us

Thank you for sharing. Makes me think of my past.I was a graduate in 1989 From high school. I drive by and shed tears ,because I lost some of my friends.

I could cry from how special this video is. Seeing how quickly us humans get older and how these four walls of our homes hold so many of our memories and experiences.

This was so great!

Wow!!!! That looked very special. I would absolutely love to visit the home I grew up in.

What wonderful memories! I would love to visit my childhood home in Brooklyn. It’s been 29 years since I’ve been there. I am happy you guys got to do this!

Bro, me and my small town crew, was exactly you guys back in the 80's ... My parents had the slick RCA camcorder, I put it to good use, as you all did as well... I ended up in Hollywerid and getting a few lil opportunities. Thanks so much for sharing!!! Would love to chat with you cats anytime! Thanks Again

great video

I could never go home again either

Wow, the smaller kid in the original vid turned out to be the bigger adult. And Eric here doesn't look as big as I thought he was as a kid.

Takeing us Back to a Time Capsule it's So Nice to watch n To think back than To film this🎥🎥🎥🎥⭐🏆👍Is Amazeing Thank You Both👍👍🏆🏆

You guys are awesome! Shout out from a 52 yr old who CRUSHED! THE 80'S💥✊

🎶 Look at this photograph...🎵

This was awesome! Glad you could do before and after on your home!

If they think they can't go home again he hasn't seen anything yet. Both my parents are dead now but when my mom was alive we both wished we could go back when everyone was young and do it all over again. Now that my mom and dad both are dead lord do I wish I could go home again 😢

This honestly just makes me depressed. And jealous. I grew up in poverty.. My old home as a kid is gone. The only friend i ever had now hates me.. and hasn't talked to me in years. 😢

Greetings from Northern California; I moved back to my hometown 10 years ago come late summer 2023…my hometown sadly has changed a bit and grew a bit more populated which saddens me!! I was able to see some locations of my child and teen home places where my family lived (we moved every 3-5 years which drove me crazy) me alone I’ve moved about 20 plus times on my own after I left for college 1st time around back then!! Some people can go back to their home(town) or close to it😀❤️😀❤️ LONG LIVE THE 80s💜❤️💜❤️

Props to the dudes that live there for being so cool about it. Crazy how time just keeps going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.

Love the dog that keeps on tackling you to the ground. Must have been a sturdy little fella.

I moved around SO much as a kid . From Born to 18 years old we had moved 11 times .

Im quite amazed how recognizable the place looks to you guys even after all these years.

Crazy cool how you kinda showed both footages in the same room at the same time

I pulled mine up on google and the house still looks the exact same! If I go to it in person it will feel like I went back in time :’)

Born 1973 new zealand auckland .... yet can still relate to this believe it or not .. same bands same attitude and activities... and interests cartoons and clothes. And hair styles

Ty’s for letting us revisit wit you; Days Gone By from EricDarrell. Hey whose ideal was it to record? To See your childhood house and your Parents sweet times, better times. Great Editing. Ty’s for sharing Days of EricDarrell , Bro Friends .

At the 6:32 mark you have Leisure Suit Larry, Space Quest and Police Quest games and boxes!! Still have all my Sierra games in their boxes!!!!

This channel is priceless!!! Your memories always touch my heart and remind me of those good old days. I’m glad I was able to experience some of that time. So nice of the guys to let you all look inside!!!

Amazing!

Cool stuff! My childhood (5th grade +) home still has my family living in it, but there are plenty of other places I lived before then I’d like to check out again.

Awwww- how sweet and fun

I honestly love the fact that the new owners were nice enough to look at your home movies, let alone let you inside to look around. 40 years later, it still looks and feels the same. My grandma, for me, actually owns my childhood home. Every Christmas and every time I go over there i just have overwhelming memories of childhood. I just wish things would stay the same, yknow? Maybe when they move out, were you thinking about moving back in with your friends or something?

It's amazing how you guys were vlogging back then and how the VCR tapes most likely piled up through the years. Still really the only way you can see your childhood homes now is one that it got sold and you can see it on Zillow through pictures being taken by the photographer if has been over the last 12 years or do this go up to the owner now and politely ask them.

Wow. I don't know what the odds are for an old house to be still in use to this day, but I'm guessing it's less than likely. So, that was a good surprise to see it still standing and in perfect condition, with people making their completely different memories there.

awww the last quote got me in the end 😢

I drive by the houses I used to live in around my hometown and they actually look better now than when I lived in them! I wish I had some videos of those days, just slice-of-life type stuff like playing Nintendo games or a long ago Blockbuster night. Such great memories!

Being a military brat, I would love to be able to go back to one particular house I lived in. Just to know what it feels like to physically be where for decades ive only been able to visit in memory. The house I used to live in in Vicenza Italy is still there. I can see it from google maps.

Those young dudes were so nice!!

3:46 is soooooo dope omggg, also the editing and overlaying of the old videos is on point 🔥

I'd love to go to my old home and just sit in each room for like 10 min. You're lucky!

What a treat. So cool of those guys to let you in.

How trippy this must’ve been! So cool! I recently i visited my old childhood home too, moved out of there in 2004, place was identical from when we left the place and i just spent all day going through the rooms and remembering all the stuff i did there.

Great video! I am a very nostalgic person by nature. I grew up in my childhood home from age 7 til 20. Even though it was only 13 years, it is still where many of my dreams seem to be located. Funny how our minds work. Thanks for the smiles and keep up the great videos! Ed

I had the opportunity to walk through my childhood house when it was for sale. Took a lot of photos. Brought back a lot of memories. My dad passed in '89, a month before I turned 20. Mom sold it in '91. I have few photos and no videos, but in my mind's eye I can see all those memories, like the one with your dad shaving. I could picture my dad sitting in HIS chair in the living room. Good video.

This is so cool!! Iam so glad you guys got the opportunity to look at your old house.

Finding you guys made my day. I was 13 in 1989 so it really took me back.

that was great, i think we all would like to go check out our childhood home.

Man, what an awesome video that was. I absolutely adore your channel. Total nostalgia. I often watch your videos with my son (he's 13) to kinda give him a feel of what life was like in the 80s and as a teenage metal head. Lol. Sincerely, thank you for making the videos guys.

That was cool Darrell. Thanks for sharing.

This was way cool!! Such fun that y'all got to go back to see your former home!! I love your channel, thanks!!

This is so cool seeing the contrast between the two. Love home videos and your guys childhood thank you so much for sharing 🖤🖤🖤🖤

that was awesome! ty so much for sharing this and hats off to the new residents for being chill and respectful

Thanks guys! This is beautiful.

Amazing! ❤ I love blast from the past! Thank you Eric and Darrell for sharing your old home videos.👍 😊

This is so cool! Thanks for sharing! I love all of your videos.

It’s so crazy seeing the videos side by side

This was fantastic. Perfect video.

Love the editing! Good stuff

Oh man, wasn't expecting this to choke me up - such a sweet video! Loved the edits of the home now and then - especially Darrell playing with the Bassett Hound! Growing up, the home next to ours had a Bassett who I just adored and would always like to play with me. I hadn't thought of that dog in decades...until this video! This channel brings the feels!
