Exploring Bronson Cave aka The Bat Cave

[@vickichandler9957]

I love these videos. I am 77 years young and have spent lots of time in Griffith Park as a kid and I never knew there was a cave there. I have lived in So Cal all of my life and am enjoying these episodes. Please continue and I wish you lots of luck in your future. Thanks

[@OddityOdysseys]

+vicki chandler Thank you so much for you comment! It's amazing what treasures Griffith Park has tucked away. :) We're looking forward to showing you more soon!

[@maxiepattie85]

Gucci Crew? Chandler is alright But VICKI! Holly shit man Mad Love always!!

[@TK-zf7sx]

This was a great YT video. It was simple, straightforward, and to the point. There was no annoying music or sound effects, and no obvious extra fluff added to pad the length of the video. Well done, you guys!

[@ewob52h74]

Thank you for this video. This is where Pentatonix filmed Mary Did You Know.

[@cazman2011]

So glad I found you guys! These videos are incredibly well put together and entertaining. These adventures are better that most anything on TV, and the chemistry between you two is absolute gold. I could honestly watch Bethany all day long.

[@residentpotato6023]

I want to bury my nose in Beth’s cave.

[@seemajamuna1929]

Thanks guys for the cool little adventures.

[@OddityOdysseys]

+Seema Yamuna Thank you for coming on the adventures with us by watching. It means a lot :)

[@maxiepattie85]

Right. Good folk!

[@jerkytoo8184]

Love the old-school map. You don't see those out in the wild as much anymore.

[@craigmonteforte1478]

thanks guys good video as a young boy i was obsessed with the 1966 Batman telelevision show that of course used that “ cave “ in so many parts of the series and yes thanks to tv magic i never had a clue it was as small as it really is

[@rstrgal99]

I used to ride my horse to the bat-caves once a week from the LAEC in Burbank and riding into the caves, exploring!! There was still all sorts of stuff taped to the top of one cave. Thanks for the cool videos 🦇

[@giuliom8520]

Really appreciate hearing the history of the site. Not many people give the history. Thank you.

[@stardog62]

The movie Robot Monster was filmed there. I believe actor Charles Bronson took his stage name from the same Bronson Road that leads to the park.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

I've been wanting to go here for some time. Thanks for the directions from the parking lot and the preview. I also just subscribed!

[@ernestlcolemanjr]

Doing a cross county trip from VA to CA June 2017. I will add this to my trip just because of this video.

[@OddityOdysseys]

Good luck on your trip! Please feel free to share any odd things you see along the way. And thank you for your comment. That means a lot :)

[@ernestlcolemanjr]

Should have added it will a motorcycle trip solo trip. I have a few of your videos & it's like watching the history channel :) T H A N K S !

[@OddityOdysseys]

Safe travels, friend :)

[@patricktumilty71]

I love seeing the Batcave AKA Bronson cave I used to walk around there all the time

[@adventureswithchristian6967]

I like how you guys do your research then present it in a funny serious way. Thank you

[@residentpotato6023]

I like how every video has succulent views of Bethany’s groin and rump.

[@brillblonde6705]

Love the Bat Cave! LOL!!!!!! What a fun episode. I really enjoyed the detail of how the cave was shot from the side in films to make it seem more ominous, and that the cave was a location for 100 films! I would love to visit. SO cool! Thanks!

[@OddityOdysseys]

+BrillBlonde Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching :)

[@469Lloyd]

The cave was also used in the Searchers near the end of the movie. John Wayne chases Natalie Wood into the cave.

[@tsuemcmahon9118]

Ooooh! I gotta put this place on my to do list! Love bats!!!! Love these episodes!

[@OddityOdysseys]

+TSue McMahon Thank you! We recommend everyone going to see all our spots, but this one especially because of it's easy access. And if you do go, we're expecting to see some photos! :)

[@joefulton4603]

Love you guys! Keep the oddities coming!

[@deemoneyman]

You both have great chemistry 👍 ❣️

[@michaelwalters7333]

These Videos Rock

[@vcandrewsfan12]

Star trek Voyager used Bronson Canyon for the episode the 37s as and for the demon planet episode as well.

[@MrShobar]

The climactic portion of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" (1956) was filmed in and around the caves.

[@ticketfortwo92]

I didn't know I needed to know what a quarry is. Can't wait to explore here! Your videos are great!

[@justrione]

Thank you

[@allenandandrewgoexploring5935]

Cool spot to explore. Gives us ideas of places to explore too.

[@OddityOdysseys]

+Allen and Andrew Go Exploring That's great!! Maybe we'll run into each other one of these days? :)

[@allenandandrewgoexploring5935]

+Oddity Odysseys i hope so:)

[@christopher8809]

Yall are so cute. And informative! Its been a while since y'all made the vid and Im afirst time viewer, hopefully you two are still blazing new trails. Thanks so much, peace!

[@OddityOdysseys]

This episode will always be special to us for being the first to premiere. Thank you so much for sticking with us through these years. We hope you've been able to enjoy some of the new content!

[@terrig2298]

(9/30/2023) Just watched "Return to the Batcave" (2003) and saw the Bronson Canyon Cave sign in the movie. I figured that meant something. So, of course, I had to check out what it was. Your video was the best! Thanks for satisfying my curiosity! Your channel sounds awesome, I will be checking out your other videos!

[@tattooyu]

Just found your channel, and as a born Angeleno, I'm loving it. Hoping to take my son to see some of these sites!

[@OddityOdysseys]

We love hearing that! Hope you and your son get the chance to go on an adventure soon.

[@MrMegadoper]

Ran into your vids by accident and I love em! You guys are sooo great!

[@xolracke]

also they filmed part of end of the movie evil dead - army of darness there.

[@MikeMatsuiJr]

What scene?

[@aarontheexplorer8696]

I wish I could go visit that cave!!

[@henryquenin6580]

Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and Robot Monster were also filmed there.

[@Shadow91507]

0:03-0:16 lol! love the screenwriting

[@janetgasman3784]

Really enjoyed how you explored this cave! Looking forward to more episodes!!

[@OddityOdysseys]

+Janet Gasman Cave exploring is the best! Only three more episodes left this season. So maybe we'll have to do a season 2?? :)

[@571951rhoehn1]

Chemistry you two have great chemistry. New subscriber, used to live in Pomona wish there was an internet and oddity Odysseys!

[@anewactor]

Was just visiting the Bronson cave with friends 2 days ago while visiting in Los Angeles & wow! Truly amazing experience! Truly fun & educational, especially regarding the rich cinematic history associated with it...including the notorious Bat Cave! LOL! Cool stuff!

[@OddityOdysseys]

That's awesome! So glad you got to experience the Bronson cave for yourself. :)

[@anewactor]

@@OddityOdysseys Yeah, was pretty cool! Will visit again next time I'm in L.A.!!

[@peggycarlyle6409]

Very interesting!

[@brianfloyd7193]

It’s not too hard to hike to the Hollywood sign from the cave. A great day trip.

[@maxiepattie85]

You guys are my new fav!

[@MarysVlogs]

Awesome video, we love Bronson cave. .😘

[@richardturner6981]

Very interesting video. Now i know where the Bat Cave is. I'll probably never see it because i live in Florida.

[@dwlopez57]

And the house that doubled as Stately Wayne Manor is in Pasadena so make the trip and kill 2 birds with 1 stone. You could also visit the pier where Batman couldnt get rid of the bomb, although I guess its rebuilt since the original burned down

[@mikieson]

enjoyed..thanks

[@brianjsurrey7738]

Great video

[@Aeowyth]

Saturday is officially now my favorite day of the week. Sure, it's the first full day of the weekend and all but, the real reason is because a new episode of Oddity Odysseys is posted! Keep up the great work!

[@OddityOdysseys]

+Laura Clark This is the best comment we've ever read! Words can not express our gratitude for your viewership and enjoyment. And we'll be more excited to show more episodes certainly keeping you in mind :) Stay tuned and hope you always get to enjoy a full and happy weekend. (And weekdays, of course) :)

[@Aeowyth]

+Oddity Odysseys you guys are too sweet! If you guys ever decide to venture out of California and find yourself in Maine, hit me up! Lobster bake, my house!

[@OddityOdysseys]

+Laura Clark Absolutely!! All fabulous ideas :)

[@residentpotato6023]

Mine too! More Bethany crotch shots!

[@loydkline]

Batman goes 🏡 home

[@phaserramone257]

I was hoping Ro-Man's bubble machine was still there. : (

[@naomidavis3665]

[@rjr1227]

How do you know everything about all the places you go? Historians?? Read alot ( cue cards???)..... or just smart? Lol Love your videos....keep em coming

[@Donaldperson7]

Maybe they shot Land OF THE LOST TV SHOW?

[@dadsonworldwide3238]

Is the street and cave named after Charles Bronson ?

[@wolfiuhmmm]

3:55 it looks like you guys are walking in the cave back there cuz the silhouettes are shaped like u guys

[@Hercule1-e2v]

did you see those people in the corner at 0:12

[@OddityOdysseys]

Good eye! :)

[@dodgers1353]

What time exactly does it close ? Thank you

[@OddityOdysseys]

There are lots of signs around the areas that you can park in that say it's best to leave around sundown so you don't risk getting a parking ticket. :) Hope that helps!

[@Shadow91507]

0:39 would've been funnier if a smoothie showed up in the cupholder lol

[@Shadow91507]

7 months later and I still think that lol!

[@Shadow91507]

3 yrs, humor still goin' strong!

[@SuperBobos12345]

1:10 >> You wont be stuck all night .There is a ranger number to call to let you out but make sure you are NOT high or drunk because last time i called a local rookie cop [ L.A.P.D ]came flying up the road looking to crack skulls .I defused him with my charm and went on my way .

[@brucebliss3803]

Sweet Thank

[@SubPablum]

There are some odd things in the Imperial Valley Desert if you don't just do Los Angeles County. I know there is enough there to keep you busy for a life time.

[@GP9railfan]

Didn’t they film a M*A*S*H episode there too where Hawkeye was claustrophobic?

[@SuperBobos12345]

yes !! down at Zuma J too as well as the A team .

[@wnerko7484]

For all they showed of it on Batman they didn't need this cave.just a wall with an exit decorated to look like a cave

[@Nightrelic]

It should be noted that each of the 3 exits are also entrances. Sorry, couldn't help myself.

[@deanangel757]

Grandma is dead. Thanks for bringing that up.

[@bluntd_on_xbox]

The funniest part of the intro was not the boy in a Batman mask but the people in the bottom right corner {EDIT Sorry Drew had to watch the intro to get you name LOL}

[@Alec_Collins78]

And the street was named after...?

[@mrackerm5879]

Was that a paper map you were using? How 20th century of you. I thought everyone younger than 50 used their phones.

[@jpolar394]

I'd sure hate to be in that cave when California gets the big one. ( earthquake )

[@davidhorizon8401]

I think this video needs a new comment. I like Oddity Odysseys.

[@xteric1]

so the name has nothing to do with Charles Bronson?

[@bhavanagunashekar1193]

B Mon

[@dougrogan379]

Maybe Batman wants to spend the night in the batcave

[@TEKLAZ]

[@stevenbeasley3729]

Nice. The Drew abuse is wearing thin...
