Hannibal Missouri - Twain, Trains, Cave Ghosts, Tours, And Adventure

[@msjenjenp]

Very interesting. I remember reading Tom Sawyer when I was a kid and being fascinated by it. Great video as usual. You rock and made me laugh out loud several times.

[@gigireg5567]

LOL love your enthusiasm! Keep it up! You have saved me the time and money of making the trip to Hannibal!

[@Gazza1912]

Mate, your video blogs are extremely informative and entertaining. I'm from the United Kingdom, but I love watching your videos. History can be a very boring topic, but you deliver your knowledge in such a way as to make it very interesting and well worth watching and listening. Thank you.

[@chelseahasflowers]

Love all your awesome historical tidbits and I appreciate your references to King Friday and Villa Villekulla! Your videos are a joy to watch.

[@nancyk4595]

Very enjoyable vlog. You make history come alive. Looks like a lot has changed since I was last there about 30 years ago.

[@user-mc7ud4ln6r]

Thank you friend! You fulfilled my dream of childhood. The fact is that I live on the other side of the globe. But Mark Twain is my favorite writer, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is my favorite book all my life. From the age of 10 I dreamed of seeing the places that you showed in this video. Now that I’m 48 years old, the dream has come true. Thank you so much!

[@lorievangorp4142]

Very enjoyable! Fun to show after reading the book to my class!! I know this town needs the tourism dollars as well.

[@CliffLewis28]

Epic Video, Sir. Mark Twain was a fascinating man, seeing his boyhood home, and his early influences really puts things into perspective. I love his books! That's it, I just added Hannibal to my bucket list! Thanx Man!!! :)

[@WonkaVator72]

Years ago, my brother and I were screwing around in the MT Cave. The twists and turns are deceptively complex and within about 30 seconds, we were lost. No joke.

[@m2tbone]

I love your videos. I grew up in a town about 45 min. away from Hannibal (I'm just 90 min. away now). My grandparents would take us to Mark Twain Cave every summer when I was a child. I've been on that cave tour several times. I read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer last year, and that story is even better after getting familiar with Hannibal and Mark Twain Cave. I'm so lucky to live so close to there to just head up there for a short day trip. Thank you for posting this awesome video.

[@amb163]

Love it! A couple of times I've been the only one on a tour, and it's so awesome! You get to talk about so much more, and ask questions, etc. AAAAND, you get to know the guide as well. They are very interesting people, most of them!

[@abbywallock]

"Tom Sawyer! This is why my daddy says you're a loser!" "But I'm not a loser, Becky!" "We're lost in a cave, you literally ARE!" I died laughing

[@Wubba2Write]

Justin, you make learning history fun, interesting, and entertaining! I almost didn't watch this video because of the length, but I'm so glad I tuned in and watched the entire video. Great five star tour! And the cave segment turned out great. Creepy and sad about the little girl. I'm not surprised her ghost was seen in the cave by a worker. And GREAT find and souvenir of the iron steamship. NICE! I won't be surprised if you end up with your own show on Netflix someday. Would love to hear about the Haunted Ghost Hannibal tour. Continue to have a fantastic road trip! Thanks for sharing your Route 66 adventures with us! I'm sure Samuel Clemens is smiling down at you! ::-)

[@Jimithy81]

Hey, I went on that Hannibal haunted ghost tour when I was there for a festival last year. I absolutely LOVE Hannibal, but I have to say that was my least favorite part of the trip. It involves them driving you to an old "potter's field" type cemetery. They give everyone dowsing rods (really?) and let you wander the cemetery. The problem this time was the tour was being run at night, and we were in the cemetery after it was closed. It's surrounded very closely by houses, and one man came out and threatened the group.

[@Wubba2Write]

YIKES! A man threatening the group sounds scarier than running into ghosts.

[@greenexploter]

did u tell the guy to f off? i live in hannibal and have never been on any tours besides when i was in middle school 95% of people i know hate it here and we don't care about mark twain in the slightest. i do like going downtown and walking and what not but thats about it

[@suzannejones7816]

Your videos always cheer me up! Love the trolley guy!

[@57Skippy1]

Thank you! I've always wanted to go to Hannibal; Mark Twain is one of my favorite authors :)

[@christinasrensen6863]

That was a great video. When I was little our Dad would gather all of us kids around just before bed and read Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn to us. Sometimes he would have a problem getting the words out at certain parts because he was laughing too hard. When I got older I read it to my kids and hope when they get older and have children they will do the same. I have added Hannibal to my list of road trip areas as I would like to visit all the areas where 'iconic' (at least in my eyes) Americans have come from.

[@desireexadam1170]

i live in hannibal mo and it is a good place to come to i live here for 31 years but it gets old stuff over and over again but some things you talking about on hill st i dont know about cause like you said the dont talk about it ... thanks for let me know more about my home town

[@desireexadam1170]

[@emilyator4368]

I live right by Hannibal and my sister lives there and I recommend going there. They also have ghost tours during Halloween living windows. I haven't been through one but I want to this year. The town has amazing history. They also found Mark Twain's name In the cave and put some glass over it.

[@tweesa2993]

LOVED this video. I lived in Hannibal from 1999-2004 and this took me right back. It was so much fun seeing things I recognize and places I've been. Thanks!!

[@Jeff-kc9ulb-allen]

As always, an enjoyable video. Thank you for putting a smile on my face and teaching me in the process!

[@VidConExtreme]

11:30 Love the reference! One of my favorite movies! Bill Murray was hilarious in it!

Wow! I'd really like to go here! I did not know a great deal of the history/information you brought to the party.Great Samuel Clemens and Barney Fife voices. Do you do alot of voices?

[@jamesconway4821]

Thanks for the amazing tour I learned a lot that I never knew about Mark Twain Tom Sawyer or the town of Hannibal. Especially the part about the homes being built on top of the cemetery.

[@joeallen8523]

Don't let the cutesy tourist attractions fool you. Downtown Hannibal is a hellhole after dark

[@TerriIncircles]

Loving your vlogs! I have no life I'm living through you..lol

[@wlwal1]

Thanks JUSTIN for tour of HANNIBAL. Looking forward for more!

[@pmontgo1]

[@bdchiaccio]

Thanks for keeping us posted. Hope you are having fun.

[@jbischof71]

GIMMIE GIMMIE I NEED!! solid What About Bob reference, props

[@kayleighr8614]

I grew up 40 minutes from Hannibal and most of our field trips were spent there. I took my kids to the cave almost two years ago and they really liked it.

[@donnabrown3209]

Awesome! I love the way you edit your videos. The ending was cool. I like the way we can hear the sounds of the town as you meticulously paint the fence. Definitely a place to visit! 😊😊😊

[@interstateruler]

A very nice town. Many things to do. There is also a huge fireworks store in Hannibal too. Lover's leap has nice view of the river

[@James-o8t9k]

I grew up in Hannibal Missouri but live in Michigan now. I will move back one day. I miss it a lot. I also lived in Quincy Illinois for a while and one of the Lincoln Douglas debates took place and the hometown of Paul Tibbetts who flew the Paul Tibet’s

[@ferfer7000]

Your personality is funny. Your like spongebob and deadpool, i dig it. Nice content just discovered you. I subscribed

[@BrianY]

Since I recently got laid-off/retired from work, I've been starting my days with your daily Sometimes Vlog and have really enjoyed your fun and edumacational trip across the states!

[@BigTonyPhoenix]

This is such a cool history lesson! Also the cave about the doctor putting his 14 yr old daughter in the cave?? Creeepyyyy. Also I love your voice for lil plush Mark Twain :D

[@lucasvail1647]

my family and I totally did the dinner cruise when we were in Hannibal! it was pretty dope

[@Dave_Boyer]

Cool to see a place I've actually been, on one of your vlogs, I've been to Hannibal a couple times. The caves are awesome.

[@mikeegomez8315]

What a fun vid! This could've been easily 3 videos, each with thousands of views

[@ladymargaret778]

Nice little tour of Hannibal.....I'm a relly of Mark Twain by marriage; his step father is my great-great-great uncle.

[@Robothut]

The trolly guy and the caves were great !

[@ronwilkinson6114]

I'm a little jealous, I would of loved to have sat there and talked to the driver. Totally awesome

[@ShadowPlay1919]

This is my favorite video ever I just saw it and eatched the Carson city one and can't wait to see the rest. I love Tom Sawyer

[@PhilipVonGunther]

Good call on the steamboat over a t-shirt!

[@Trala52]

"What's that dang-durn Kalifurnya kid doin' with that ding-dang-durn camera?" Answer: Making one more great dang-durn great video!!! Thanks!!! Looking foreward to more! Have fun!!!!!

[@pabloperez7942]

Thanks for the video. I m a big fan of Tom Sawyer. I read the book and watched at least 2 movie adaptations, one of them with a pre teen Jodie Foster as Becky. I also watched a japanese animated series of Tom Sawyer decades ago.

[@sewthernbelle]

OH Justin....try doing that trolley tour in Tortola and St. Thomas. No seat belts, small seats and the drivers had to go about twice as fast as you were going just to get up the many many high hills on the islands.

[@FootypawsWorkshop]

Cotton's voice, authentic! That ending-haha :)

[@timvogel68]

We live just up the river from Hannibal. We were just at the riverboat and cave for the school's field trip!

[@benplummer7753]

Justin, if you ever make it to Arkansas, please let me know, I would love to show you around. Lots of pretty cool stuff here.

I'm officially in love with Hannibal Missouri.

[@erikjames8463]

Wait a minute- Tyler Evans needs his Huckleberry Finn hat back too!

[@MrMakeDo]

That last part was almost like watching paint dry!

[@Utonian21]

"He pretends to be dead and they paint a fence at one point" IM DYING XD

[@shannonquinn9856]

That fence didn’t used to be at lovers leap. As college students we would sit on the edge at night and watch the river.

[@jos_meid]

I know that cave tour guide!!! He went to my high school!!!

[@AustriaGermany]

[@Re3identus]

I want go there! Twain one of my favorite writers! But it so far away from Russia! Oh... maybe someday...

[@pahoboye]

[@Lurker1979]

[@SillyCelly411]

[@paulbiz8708]

[@goskanoodlekid5987]

Hannibal is a very good place to live I also just recently moved into a new house on the safest street in Hannibal

[@bcrich792000]

Nothing like being in a small town and hearing the sound of a train horn.

[@sophiadwight6576]

Dude!!! I live there

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Lover's Leap? Yeah, there's that one, then I think there is a similar one near my hometown, near Knight's Ferry, idk if it's the same story or not, but I heard it's the same name. o.O

[@davidgriego549]

[@henrys3629]

Many moons ago..... Rush Tom Sawyer. What did they do with the wood from the sections of house they cut out for the doorways?

[@Rammusfan]

That was just awesome.

[@greenpad]

More youtube gold, I tell ya!

[@mattp443]
