I didn't even leap to "GHOST!" when I watched the video. He saw footprints at the entrance. For me, my first thought on seeing that chain swinging was "There's someone else in the mine." A person is way more threatening than a ghost and even more concerning when said person is apparently living in an old abandoned mine.

Knowledge is power...running away from a non life threatening situation is not. Don't be a pussy, don't be a Frank. Tons of rock could collapse on him while in a cave and yet he is afraid of a moving chain🤔🤔 VERY SUSPICIOUS.
@justincider8892 2 жыл бұрын
He moved the chain himself. Mr. Ballen conveniently left out the "creepy" noises that frank put in the video later on. Frank does stay and explores more. At one point he "hears" creepy noises, but those noises are from a stock library. The video is entirely fake. As for the reason he did it. It could be for fun, it could be an attempt ay going viral. Who knows? Mr Ballen's evidence is flimsy.

he was right to follow his instincts and get out! i’ve been wondering if the swinging chain may have been caused by a magnetic force or, like a pendulum, it could have been under the force of gravity. it’d be interesting to go back to that mine and see if the chain is still swinging back and forth.
@samiirai 4 ай бұрын

@cozymonk 8 ай бұрын
If he saw footprints, there very well could have been someone living or, at least, hiding in the mine. The swinging chain may not have started swinging right when the light shined on it, the person having moved away before Frank looked that way, but the inertia of the chain persisted. It's not the only chain swinging, either; there is one even closer to Frank. I genuinely think there was someone else in that cave and they did not want Frank to stumble upon them. It's honestly scarier than any "ghost" in my mind. I don't particularly want to meet the kind of person who skulks in an abandoned mine.

@eliannafreely5725 5 ай бұрын
Came here to say this. Similar thing happened to me in a large public park. There was a kind of remote area I liked to go near the water, but being remote it was hard to get to. So I was disappointed when I got there only to see someone else already there, except instead of hanging out looking at the water normally, when I arrived they immediately slipped into the reeds and went completely quiet. I could now only see their shoes. I think they thought I hadn't and couldn't see them. Those shoes didn't move. Now I can understand putting some vegetation between you and others when you're enjoying nature. But then the shoes would be moving. Walking, or twitching or tapping or adjusting themselves slightly on the ground - not staying rigidly still while the person they are attached to makes no sound. But like i said, I really wanted to have the spot, so at first my brain was slow to adjust and I thought I'd hang out and see if I could make them choose to leave first. But the shoes stayed totally still. The person stayed totally quiet. And as a few minutes passed like this, I realized that if it was that important to them not to be seen, maybe i didn't want to see them either, and it was time to go.
@glennpuckett9746 5 ай бұрын
And of course, someone walking on the muddy ground, and moving around doing all this stuff was able to do so without making any sounds whatsoever? And you would know for a fact the footprints were made that very day instead of a week or two ago or longer Sherlock? As I posted earlier, if someone goes into the mine a month after Frank, and sees Frank's footprints, then that means Frank is still in the mine a month later? You come to all of your conclusions based upon the fact that Frank simply said he saw footprints? Also, a mine and a cave are not the same thing.

I don't think he's lying. I think he was genuinely shocked and spooked by that chain swinging. The big teller for me is, he went quiet. Completely quiet. Throughout the video he says nothing about ghosts or haunting or anything. He's not even creeped out by the weird entrance. And then even when he does get spooked, he doesn't make a sound. Just makes the statement "I don't know why that chain is swinging" and then turns the camera off and books it. No other comment, nothing. I honestly think that kind of thing is pretty geniune.

I disagree. I don't understand why people immediately jump to the supernatural when they lack an actual explanation. First of all, appealing to the supernatural to fill in the blanks does not actually fill in any blanks, it raises many more questions and answers none. Secondly, it's incredibly lazy and prevents you from looking for an actual answer. "Must've been supernatural" is always a bullshit explanation.

@keegobricks9734 9 ай бұрын
Yeah, or an animal. If you look actually several of the chains were swaying just not as dramatically. Made me thig of an animal running past a few of them but accidentally bumping into another one. But yeah, probably a homeless person or a drug addict, or a mobster getting rid of a body. Plenty of reasons for someone to be in a mine, and when you do 300 videos of going down mines, odds are eventually you'll enter one with someone else in it.
@billydeal6579 9 ай бұрын
multiple logical conclusions to pick from: 1: the chains are hanging from some kind of frame that's become twisted and thus the twisted segment would move more than other places. (supporting evidence: nearby chains are swinging too but farther away they're not) 2: hills have eyes, he was almost eaten and a cannibal missed a meal. (he saw footprints) 3: Bat. They fly and hit things. Bats. (they're usually in a cave and they look bitchin with chains)

I would be less afraid of a ghost swinging that chain and more afraid of a psychopath with a rusty knife getting THAT close to me without me knowing. Ghosts aren’t scary. Sociopaths who hang out in abandoned mines are terrifying. The knowledge that someone is in there with him and he doesn’t know who they are or why they’ve concealed themselves is brilliantly dreadful.

It was terrifying and I was afraid to be alone or go to sleep... That's how it really is.

His other two are about 1000% scarier than the swinging chain. The voices when he says I don’t know if those are birds or snakes?

I spent 15 years as a coal miner and I have a story that I think you'd really like. A miracle happened during a cave in where three of us were buried under tons of coal and rock. One single timber broke in half as the roof came in and fell against the machinery creating a pocket just big enough to allow us to survive. There's much more to the story but that's the basics.

You may have seen either Surviving Wilburg, a documentary on the mine fire disaster that happened there or maybe the Crandall canyon disaster footage. The incident with me took place across the valley and a year after Crandall Canyon. Same type of thing just not on as large a scale as Crandall. The bounces we experienced would register as high as 5.3 on Utah's seismic readings and we were at the epicenter.

Great episode! I love exploring old mines in Arizona and have never ran across anything paranormal. I did find a very ill-tempered badger in one once, but that was it. The swinging chain could have been caused by a minor earthquake. But, only another nearby chain was affected, so... Definitely creepy. Only discovered Mr. Ballen a couple of weeks ago, but as a former squid and lover of the paranormal, I am hooked!

i watch a lot of his exploration videos from time to time, there was one video he posted quite a while back that was just a regular run-of-the-mill mine video. it looked like someone else was in there with him ( not just his friend ), the best way I can describe it is, that he looks up into a winze and talks about the history and some of the terms used, and about halfway into it, I noticed something move around he and his friend couldn't go up to the level winze was connected to because it had been blocked off or the ladder was too "Sketchy" I had just chalked it up to it being an animal until it melted into the darkness. ( I wanna see if i can find that video again ) It was about a 20 or 30 minute video, but it happens near the start of it, and he doesn't notice it, the whole video is just him exploring the mine and its chambers

His reaction seems extremely realistic to me. I’ve had some weird experiences in my life and I’ve reacted like that too. You just stop, look at the thing, trying to figure it out, considering if it’s dangerous, and then you either leave or move on with a pounding heart and lingering anxiety. No wonder he went looking for it afterwards. You get curious after an experience like that. It’s a mix of being scared but also wanting to see more because it would validate your previous experience. That and of course hoping to catch it on tape for views.

Everything went silent and me and my dog just looked around figuring out what was wrong and that's when I saw this wierd looking deer so I emediatly left the area. It was probably just a sick deer and a couger or something was stalking it but that too would be terrifying to have a couger pounce on you.

I feel like this could be real because I have a lot of experience with paranormal activity and i would always get that bad feeling that something was weird or off and the fact that he mentioned that it felt creepy makes sense.

I hope it's something far out. But it looks like the other chains on the left are slightly swinging from someone that backed into them after putting the main chain into motion. Was it Frank?

Ive been in a cemetery where someone had placed six plastic windmills on each side of a path. Early morning. No wind. Before they'd opened. One started spinning on it's own. Fast. My friend and I started interacting with the entity. It would stop spinning when we asked it to. It even changed direction on a dime and started spinning super fast on its own accord the other way. It had been spinning clockwise and then spun counter clockwise. The other five never moved. It was awesome. I've had a few other paranormal experiences but that was the coolest. This went on a good 10 or more minutes. There's definitely things in this world we cannot see with our eyes

I was a subscriber on Frank's channel when that was originally uploaded - in fact I'm surprised I don't have a comment on that video. It's definitely a memorable piece of content, if it's real or not only Frank knows but for sure he didn't swing the chain himself BUT if he faked it for entertainment value, it would have been somebody else with him. The thing that leads to suspicion more than anything in that context would be the slowness of the camera movements to allow another person to get out of the shot. Natural airflow in mines can be weird and could explain it if one is looking for a non-para, non-fakery explanation. That video is far from the most freaky thing he has posted from mine explores though.. BTW I do lean towards, whatever it was, something he wasn't expecting, that nervous breathing thing is hard to fake.

I've already seen this video, when it first came out actually (because I always watch MrBallen's videos as soon as he posts lol) and I've already seen it before then too, but this video is so convincing that it's real, it just blows me away. I don't think that Frank altered this video in any way, whether that means adding sounds or special effects, so it's very unsettling what happens to him. He even tries to explain it away as birds or snakes making noises when it's very obviously people whispering. Ughhh... It still gives me chills thinking about it!

Its so weird seeing Mr Ballen doing a video about another youtuber Im subbed to. I remember watching that video years ago, and only thinking the chain swinging was weird but nothing more. I was glad he walked back out at the time because the mine did not safe enough to enter, and it looked like it would be miserable to walk through. He went back when it dried out and explored the place.

Incidentally I don't remember this video striking me as memorable at the time - just kind of peculiar and off-putting that he'd just leave a cave that upbruptly. I agree with Ballen it's very out of character for him. I guess in that sense it does make it a little more creepy.

I was way more freaked out by the thought that someone else was there, messing with him by swinging that chain, being in pitch dark if his torch was knocked out of his hand and the fact that he was pretty much in the middle of nowhere. The fact that he saw footprints on his way into the mine, my mind went straight to a person being inside that mine. The unknown person in the mine, in the middle of nowhere, in the pitch dark, is way more scarier to me than a ghost swinging chains!

I work in an over 100 year old building as a pastry chef and sometimes work at Midnight. A few times I have heard someone running up the stairs and stomping upstairs. The first time I thought maybe someone followed me in and went upstairs but found nothing. The second time I just ignored it and started my day, keeping an eye on those dark stairs. After a year or so with nothing a new employee asked me about hearing someone walking around upstairs when she was there alone. I have since heard it one more time. I have no idea what it is but it's very weird, it sounds like a very heavy person running and stomping and you can hear it move across the ceiling. No clue.

Frank saw someone else’s footprints entering the mine, something that urged him forward. He didn’t make note of footprints leaving the mine. Wouldn’t it be likely that the chain swung because someone else was down there with him? In my opinion, just as creepy as the idea of a ghost down there.

It's odd that he didn't hear footsteps though. And you would think the sound would travel really well in a mine. The chains were swinging wildly so you would think that person isn't being too quiet wit their movements either. Not saying what I think it is, but damn that's strange.

The weirdest thing about the chain is, it's swinging back and forth like a pendulum... it doesn't seem to be loosing any momentum. I don't know one way or the other if a chain hanging from a wall with little friction can naturally maintain a swing like that for a decent duration... it's seems a bit out of the ordinary, but I can't say for certain. I noticed that a few other chains were lightly swinging back and forth around it.
@rogerfroud300 8 ай бұрын
Hmmm... to be honest, it might just be that there's a draught coming from above near that chain. Look at the way it's swinging. It's straight, and that's not how it would be if it was swung out of the way. Take a look at tall slender Chimneys or Car Aerials. Notice how they have curved pieces on Chimneys, and a spiral wire wound round the Aerial. They are there to prevent them from swaying in the wind. Look up Vortex Shedding and you will see how this happens. I think this may be happening to the chain. Just because something is moving, it doesn't mean that someone or a Ghost is moving it! Someone needs to go back and see if that's what's happening.
