Hello Dan, new sub here and addicted to your videos. A little more information if I may on this Atlantic Electric Control Center. I actually work at a similar facility for the Houston, TX electric grid. These kind of facilities are very important and usually very secure. If there were an attach on a major city, these kind of facilities would be a high priority target as they control the power flow for the city as well as a major portion of the electrical grid for the interconnection they reside in. The elevated floors you saw are indeed for wires and cables. You also filmed a standby generator which is very important for a facility such as this. The ones for our facility store enough diesel fuel to run for 10 days. The very large room that you called the alien room would have probably been the customer service department for Atlantic Electric. Most facilities like this usually have so have cafeterias and full locker rooms and showers. This is for when employees are called in to stay on site for emergency situations like hurricanes and winter storms. Here's the good stuff that you probably didn't gain access to...That elevator you saw very close to the round desk had a Down button, which probably means that it was the one and only entry point to get into the main control center for the actual power grid operations. They are almost always underground for added protection against security threat and hostile attacks. This particular are would have been extremely large and very tall as well, possibly with 40-50' ceilings and multiple system control consoles which would have been horseshoe shaped like most all dispatch desks. The reason it would have been so tall down there is to allow room for the huge map board of the transmission and generation grid. Sounds like you need to go back and try to gain access to that grid control room, you would be very impressed. There's a reason the copper thief was trying to get down that elevator shaft...there would have been a goldmine of copper down there! Keep up the awesome work....you're helping me stay awake on these nights shifts so I can keep the lights on in Houston...lol

Atlantic city electric was bought out at this time by a utility conglomerate called Connectiv power.they probably combined call centers and had no use for this one anymore. as of recent Atlantic city electric and its parent company were bought out by exelon. their call center is in Philly

The places were time stands still. I love abandoned buildings because time is frozen to when ever people left. So many things tell the story of the last day by the owners. You ignore whats broken and try to create it in your mind. I like finding a desk. You wonder what job the person had that sat here. For me it brings back the imagination I had when I was younger. Also its enjoying watching someone else do the walking. You make art Dan.

Also, there is an old abandonded women's school outside of washington D.C. with buildings that are based on archetechture from around the world, japan, holland, etc. that's worth checking out as well.

"crime" is a specific exclusion in many health insurance contracts. if injury was incurred by means of illegal activity, it's usually not covered.

I giggled pretty good when you were near the end of your narration, and right after you said "you can visit my website" "goodie" showed up written on one of the building's windows. I don't know if you planned that, but if you did, the timing was perfect. Lmao. In any case, you made another thrashed on building come alive for us once again. Your advice to urban explorers was albeit very sane and really good advice. We can always find somewhere to take vids and pictures, so it's not worth $50,000 and some time in a hospital to get some pictures. I might want to tell people that fire alarms can still be functional up to as many as five years after the main a.c. power has been disconnected, so pulling a pull station cuz you think the power is off may land you with a considrable fine on top of public mischief, and trespassing, and other stuff.

Another great job. What puts your videos ahead of the rest is the background info you provide. A video of an abandoned building with no narration is ok but not the same as having a dialog to go with it. Watching some of the other explorers can get pretty boring. Sometimes the viewer is not always sure of what they are looking at. The stories behind the paces are what turn it into an adventure rather than looking at piles of trash. Just keep doing what you are doing and don't change a thing. Also I completely agree with your ethics of exploration. Explorers are basically guests, invited or not, in these places.

Great explore! I'm fairly new to urbex and don't have as much time for it as I'd like, but one of my biggest fears is running into someone in an abandoned building. If it's not another explorer or just kids, chances are it's probably someone you don't want to encounter. I wish I could find another explorer locally that I could go with since, I'm sure it's much safer to go in pairs or groups rather than exploring alone, but that's not always possible. Abandoned buildings are ideal places for criminal activity. An explorer I follow on Facebook recently posted an article about some ghost hunters who went to an abandoned hospital to do a paranormal investigation and found a dead body in the hospital. The person had been murdered and the body hidden there. If that ever happened to me, the body isn't what I'd be freaked out about. It's the idea that whoever hid the body could still be in there. I'm sure after the ordeal is over, I'd have to change underwear!

In just a little bit of time, you'll be back in Atlantic City doing Dead Casino series, more Dirty Hotel series (Black Horse Pike is a goldmine for that), and plenty of urban exploration videos of the decaying life that is now Atlantic County. I can only hope I am wrong and they save that one county that makes New Jersey worth anything. Until then, it's a Dan Bell hot spot. Lol

Awesome video as usual. I do enjoy if someone is going to do some tagging that it is at least it is original, or some work is put into it.

It's nice of you to put warnings and tips to people who go exploring. I'd be too chicken to do it myself, though. And taking stuff should go without saying. Isn't that stuff dirty??? Besides what would be in an abandoned building that is worth taking?

Whenever I watch your videos and you're recording down a dark hallway I'm waiting to see a shadowy figure walk by and scare the crap out of everyone.

I remember that place, just on the edge of Pleasantville (which isn't very pleasant). Now it's a WalTard from what I understand.

+DIfreighter watcher I think you mean static dissipation, I mean really why would the static be desperate?
