His Life Was Unfortunate ~ Peculiar Abandoned Manor Lost in Portugal!

Exploring abandoned places is my hobby and finance it all out of my own pocket and the donations I get from the people who love watching the documentaries we make... A small donation would be greatly appreciated! ► / brosofdecay
Check out Danny his channel / @es.forgotten
In this video, we're going to explore an abandoned mansion in Portugal. This mansion was once the home of a Portuguese videographer, but his life was unlucky...
This is the story of Carlos Pinto, he was someone who had seemingly everything, his life was literally carved out for him. Carlos graduated from university as a cinematographer and worked for years in the United States on numerous well-regarded movies. During that time, he also met his wife Linda, and they made the decision to move back to his home country of Portugal. They moved into the extravagant mansion that Carlos inherited from his parents, this was also the place where their 2 beautiful children, Jori and Helga were born. Although everything appeared perfect for them, his wife was growing increasingly unhappy with their life in Portugal, and this led her to decide to move back to the United States.
Their son Jori had respiratory problems, so they made the decision that it would be better for him to stay in Portugal with Carlos, and Helga moved back to the USA with her mother. Over the years, Jori’s health grew ever more fragile, and he passed away at a very young age.
All of this had a big hit on Carlos his mental and physical health. Over the years this only grew worse, and he only lived until the age of 57, when he left planet earth behind forever…
Upon entering this peculiar house we got the feeling that somebody was still living there, even though the place had been abandoned for more than 15 years, it felt strange, just like somebody could come walking inside right at that moment.
Let us take you on a tour of what has been left behind, and tell you the story of their lives.

If you do a beautiful job of presenting people's homes that have long gone forgotten you have great respect and it shows your parents brought you up right

[@heatherbryant5596]

No they are breaking into these homes that's not respect, respect isn't going through a window or back door 😒

[@Cybernaut76]

@@heatherbryant5596 How can you be so certain they dont have permission from the houses current owners? If they did not have owners permission, you would think a couple of trespassing lawsuits would have already taught them a thing or two but their faces are still not blurred and neither have they quit.

[@heatherbryant5596]

@@Cybernaut76 a they say things like "there's an opening in the back " or they say we got kicked off the property yesterday but we see there gone next store so it's OK to go in, but i will have to keep the sounds down " do you not listen to him talking? Come on with it..... they break and enter more than they have permission and we all know it.

[@heatherbryant5596]

@@Cybernaut76 sights like Pethericks and life of Ryan ask permission always

[@Cybernaut76]

@@heatherbryant5596 Wait a minute! I was watching these videos so friggin tired (going to sleep soon) you could absolutely not rely on me for any....detective type work. Now I saw another title from Bros of Decay saying something like "who lived in this abandoned forest home". If they cannot even tell the owners, then that was an unauthorized entry with about 95% certainty. What they are doing is rather foolhardy even if possible legal repercussions were counted out. Still I give them credit for great respect for those people who earlier lived in the nowadays abandoned properties. Thank you for hinting me about Pethericks and Life of Ryan.

Hello from Indiana USA. This one kind of made me sad. I got the feeling that he might’ve been a lonely man. I love the way you and Danny work together.

[@KerliYN]

Hahahahahahaha. It was so funny. Lesley said: ¨I am going to open it¨ and Danny said ¨No, no, you are not going to eat it¨. Danny sounds like Lesley´s conscience!!! You are great, guys!!!! Great place. I loved it. You put together all pieces and then we have the whole puzzle solved.

[@ruthbancroft7016]

I could happily live in that house, it is beautiful 😍 I don't think it's messy, I think they were just very busy and creative. And with the added stress of dealing with a child who has life threatening health problems your priorities change. This is why what Lesley and Danny do is so important. The dust and cobwebs are always going to be here, but we won't be. I love you guys 😘 thank you so much 😘😘

As a mom I can't understand how she left without her sick son. I don't understand these women, never will.

It was odd.

[@dawnklug6986]

He must have been terminal and she had to divide the custody.........those men were possessive of sons

I restore vintage lighting, it's my thing. I like to see if I can spot and identify old lighting in you videos. At 26:42 is a beautiful rare 1930's Original Kaiser Idell model 6551 with a Chrome Pole Bauhaus Desk Lamp and another Idell at 29:19 I just thought I'd share that with you. Keep up the good work , absolutely fascinating.

[@Dusti_Sue]

There are several videographers who also explore abandoned homes but I enjoy the Bros of Decay the most. Your videos are very well done with glimpses into lives lived so long ago. But what I most appreciate is as you explore, you show such respect to the former inhabitants and even possessions left behind so many years ago. I enjoy learning about the families who called the house their homes. I notice you are careful to replace each item exactly as you find it. And you muse aloud with each discovered possession that waits silently & unnoticed beneath the dust and cobwebs. Sometimes I think former occupants whisper into your ear, ‘I will be your guide and will open for you a window into our lives.’ You boys are treasures too! Especially for we who have lived many years and remember as we explore with you. Thank you for your wonderful videos that satisfy our curiosity. Your respect the entire time you are on the property is commendable. Please always continue to share your passion for exploration with your friendly armchair travelers!

Leslie and Danny you are the best filmaker together. I've watched some other channel/guys doing this kind of video but Leslie speech and Dany as camera man are perfect "in my opinion" 😁. Leslie you give respect to the things and your romantic view of the place is beautiful. Dani, por favor, pede para o Leslie abrir todas as gavetas, portas, caixas e mostrar as roupas e tuuudo mais. Eu fico frustrada quando voces nao abrem as caixas, baus, mostram roupas antigas... So guys, keep it up and you are the best 🙏🏻🌹❤️. Cheers from Brazil 🇵🇹❤️🇧🇷

The ironing board outside might not have been a childs. They have ones with short legs you can put on a table top to use. Also, that clock was also a barometer I think and might not be new. The sticker on it could have been from a tag sale or garage sale as we call them in the US.

I think he deserved better than what life ended up giving him. Same for Jori. However, Carlos was partly himself responsible for his own life being so short. If I am not mistaken, he was a chain smoker...

[@sinsiist]

That vanity in the bedroom is vintage. It's not modern at all. It's from the 1930'/40's. The piece in the middle was added later just to store more stuff. Also: In the poster from the boy’s room says: *Safe Strokes (in Portuguese ‘riscos’ also mean sketches or strokes) The exhibit “Safe Strokes - Portuguese Artistic Diaspora” *(diaspora both in english and portuguese means: a group of people who went from one original place to several others) *It’s a show about the works of fourteen artists who express in Portuguese. We’ve traced the geographical paths coinciding with those of the Portuguese navigations from the 15th and 16th centuries and, in every port, we’ve found the Lusophone (Portuguese) trace alive.* - And at the edge of each line you have the artists' names

[@Meriale46]

What an intriguing house. It seems so mournful though. It was so cluttered, I think Carlo was a hoarder. Depression will do that to you. Many people who are manic-depressive hoard things. It's so sad that his son died... may if the boy went to America with his Mom and Sister he may have lived, but living in that clutter and dust all his life had to have made his respiratory illness worse. Poor thing. But as usual, you find the most interesting places to feature.
