I Found An Abandoned House With Everything Left, Power Still On And A Load Of Classic Cars Left Too

[@malhanneera]

Great find .👍 BUT A sad feeling 😢

[@boblloyd75]

At 10:36, that is an Oscilloscope used to debug electronic circuits

[@jfro5867]

Glad you remembered to find the date (on that tin), it’s always nice to have some sort of timestamp as a viewer.

[@ExploringWithBoss]

Thanks for another great video Colin mate. Absolutely love the Citroens, I can remember a neighbour having one and the suspension used to blow my mind haha

[@melissavail653]

I am in the process of cleaning out my house…… not near as much stuff as this house…..but what makes us think we need all this “stuff”!!!!?

[@MarkGFRex]

What a fascinating place. I could have watched this video for an hour and wouldn't have gotten bored. I'm sure the grow room is unrelated to the original owners activities because it doesn't seem to fit with the character. I would have loved to have met him.

[@spikeyplants438]

Hi Guys good to see you exploring a house and cars again.And what a house that was!!! You both did well just to get around that place.Some of that equipment would have been quite expensive to buy,all going to waste now.Great commentary Colin and well done for not falling over while moving about in there. The guy was a Citroen fan for sure,I agree with you Colin they are nice cars to travel in sooo comfortable. Shame those ones could not be saved.Look forward to next weeks more like this one please. Take care both of you.😀

Those old green Hitachi power tools were first introduced in the UK in 1979

[@tbird788]

Happy New Year Colin and friends.🎉 Looking forward to seeing more exciting videos this year, absolutely love them, so interesting.

[@fhwolthuis]

13:23 That's a polygraph to test if you're lying 😂

[@petersylvester2905]

We should get Colin hooked up to see if the shower curtain and net curtain videos were staged or not. 😅

[@nightwolf1634]

awesome find!! thank you for sharing with us.

[@carlashepherd9362]

A time capsule for sure guy’s! Awesome video as usual! 👍👍❤️✊🤘

[@patriciayoung3267]

The Paint peel in this place is amazing.

[@briansweeney2291]

Colin those green drills where out around 1970s I remember my dad had one of them bk in the day , what another cracking video so much stuff lying around , even in the cars wow wow wow 😲

[@ywainprior1043]

Great video again wolfy. It's been a while since you posted & I'd started to get withdrawal symptoms, I've even been going back over you earlier posts as only discovered your channel around a year ago & to be honest you're the best I've seen. Your so respectful to others property & belonging.. Keep the posts coming.. The Mad hatter from Suffolk

[@briansweeney2291]

Happy new year Colin looking forward to seeing more exciting videos this year 😉

[@AnneSmith-mu2ph]

Hi Colin always look forwards to Saturday evenings ,lv Ann ❤️🇬🇧

[@adriansmith31]

That scopex oscilloscope is from the mid 70's. Had one donated that I did a repair video on. Most of the other test equipment I saw was a similar age.

[@amandabeech8472]

Happy new year Colin, great video. Some very interesting bits. 🥰

[@50bograt]

there is so much old tech in that house i would take over that house and spend the next 5 years ebaying the stuff as its to good to throw away or leave to rot.

[@richkent7938]

Happy New Year to you and yours, Colin. Another great Upload, and explored with respect, as always. An absolute Treasure Trove of items, but there also seems an Air of sadness about the place. Definitely used as a, " Grow House" at some point. Looking forward to the next Explore.

[@cliffordmillington8021]

Your videos are always amazing, thank you 👍

[@derrickcuff9817]

Excellent video Colin and hope you have good new year

[@John-s3t6q]

Happy New Year to you and yours

That last Xantia was Mot'd up until 2018 and had 241K miles on the clock!

[@fionagreenwood3231]

There is always a place for everything !!!

[@J.Taylor-101]

Looks like he dried his clothes with the power light and mirrors. They give out alot of heat and the mirrors amplify it. I think that's why his clothes were hanging right in the middle of the room too. That's my guess anyway lol

[@adamholmes91]

I agree, but such an inefficient way to do that! Although judging by the dodgy wiring I'd say he probably bypassed the meter.

[@carolgreenwood6105]

Happy New year Colin 🎉 I remember my dad having a couple of Citroen cars brand new at the time all I remember is the colour 😂red & a white zante I think ( first car u seen ) ❤

[@eppityrrell8236]

Omg how could anyone live there good to see you hope you had a lovely Christmas and wishing you a fab new year ✨🕊️☘️🎄❄️

[@john0597]

Hi bearded Explorer is John here from East London the wishing you a happy new year and looking forward to many more videos this one was fantastic as usual I watched this on the 4th of January 25

[@CelesteMeyer-dw5zg]

happy New Year this is Celeste from Bay City Michigan USA

[@fhwolthuis]

19:12 Colin, don't tell me you've never been on an adult film set before, mr. Plumber! 😅😉😉

[@motorclaimguru]

I bet James was in his element! great vid as ever Colin

[@Matt-E-Mulsion]

the first item was a oscilloscope electronic test gear, I would suspect whoever lived there is doing time for growing weed, what a place, a hordes house indeed.

Judging how long the house is abandoned the man is long deceased by now even if he was growing ganja

[@CelesteMeyer-dw5zg]

Happy New Year this is celest from Bay City Michigan USA

[@joannmello5085]

Hello beard explorer greeting from the USA ❤

[@andyallen632]

You found a Ociliscope and a sesmagrapgh by the look of them how he got so much in the house makes my mind boggle great video best regards Andy Allen

Happy new year colin❤❤

[@adrianhewitt7908]

Good I like it😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MBeeching]

Quite the collection of curious clutter! (All the best for the New Year).

[@lisa28100]

I always look forward to your videos, been looking at others too but yours is by far the best. You are so considerate when looking around a property. Keep up the good work. I'd love to be an explorer too. I've got myself a gimbal , need to get other bits and pieces before I start. Please can you tell me is the gimbal best on locked or the pov setting? What setting is yours on please?

[@chrisblay]

Someone was growing wacky baccy in that room with all the lights and mirrors. Dodgy electrics are a giveaway, I would have thought.

[@annemariemcnamara8756]

Love how respectful you are. My Da’s house was not as bad as this but bad enough I had to hire a special cleaning company that specializes, needless to say most of my parents belongings had to be trashed. It’s a sad way to live and very difficult to deal with

[@markmooch]

Why did they have to be trashed?

[@Roachie1982uk]

Very suprised if u dont ask about the xanitas and bx 😂😂😂😂😎

[@Triliton]

Whats made me wondering, is whos gonna clean all this stuff up and eventually sell the property. There are things in there worth money, collectibles and more.

[@susanrice3166]

I think he ran a business somewhere and that business could have ended up at his home. Cars and parts galore. Old computer equipment, filing cabinets etc. I would like to say that it had been organised at some stage because of the racking, but who knows 🤷

Would certainly be impossible to live there or even try and work in that mess. The garden would have been less of a jungle. I assume one of the cars was his daily but hard to figure out which one

[@sullivanrachael]

He’d be a really clever bloke would imagine a use for every piece of equipment. I guess the place had been a bit trashed by scroungers looking for tasty bits to nick. Plus the Growers using the place as a discreet grow location.

[@songoku9348]

Happy new year Colin. Awesome first explore of 2025.

[@glentucker4250]

What an incredible place. Mind boggling that someone could have lived there. So much cool stuff there. Thank you for showing us this amazing property!

[@clairefunnell8481]

Happy New Year Colin. Think the guy went to jail.? Drugs, should have known. So unhealthy. Watch your steps in there. Cheers!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I think the grow room predates the person who collected the cars and electronic equipment. This seems to be empty around 20 years and probably the guy who there is now at one with the earth.

[@Speedfreak99969]

I've had a couple of the Citroëns very comfortable cars one of them used to cut out when going around a bend fast it would drop the suspension and lose power steering so quite sketchy at time's

[@thughes52]

Cool hoarders find m8 weird room with all high lights and mirrors ...wouldn't generally mirrors in a grow room ...pity the cars ..happy new year m8

[@xMandalorex]

0:49 Seconds in. The CITROEN XANTIA With Plate P655 XGC, was last seen on the roads in 1997 (according to the site/stats) - First Registered and then maybe d riven till 1999? who knows.

[@trudimice8334]

Great explore 👍

[@gearheaddave9639]

@10:33 is a scopex 4d10 Dual Channel oscilloscope.

[@rhino21m]

How does that place still have power after all those years

[@patrickhumphries1263]

The HITACHI drills are from approx 1984 / 1989 . . I've still got one ! . . Battery dead of course 😢

[@grahamx8623]

I used drills like that on my first job at 18 years old. I'm 58 now!! Happy memories.

[@patrickhumphries1263]

@grahamx8623 I'm 62 this year ! . . Good times

​@@grahamx8623I got one similar. They are the generation of electrical tools and drills that had rechargeable batteries although not Ni-cd or lithium ion like today.

[@GenMaster124]

Guy liked his Citroen cars 👍🏻

[@very5ick112]

itsa french thing

[@RichardGray-p3u]

Will we ever get to know the backstory of this house and what will happen to it ,someone must be paying the bills ie council tax and electric bill. My first time on your channel now a subscriber 👏👏😷

[@mattclark7634]

There is no way anyone lived in that house. That must been his work place. He would have lived elsewhere

[@TCBOT]

sad looks like he would be a very cool guy into all sorts old ibm pc,s cars fixing stuff etc dam

[@patriciamariemitchel]

It looks like he had several things going on, including care repair, a car specific junk yard, and a grow room in the attic, which explains the bullets and the clutter, to discourage people from finding it. I have no use for any kind of mind altering drug because there's no high like the most High. But it's always been about money for the 'revenuers'. Nice job, Colin; James too.

[@DarloGuy-i7c]

What is the music you use colin at start the videos i love it ?

[@motorclaimguru]

at 13.22 , that is a lie detector, a polygraph machine

[@heathermurray9939]

Hoarders don't see the mess, often hoarders hoard because they never had much when they were growing up

[@robertlyman9789]

Kinda looked like old amateur radio gear up in the grow room

[@KeepShining75]

An oscilloscope used to test electronic equipment

[@ruthbazley3468]

Blimey you were lucky with the electrics in there if it was a grow house. The way they bypass meters is deadly even the guys sent out to disconnect it are uber careful.

[@robertlyman9789]

The mirrors shot him into another dimension

[@heathermurray9939]

All the wire is a fire waiting to happen.

[@Nightcrawlis]

Wonder if it was a workshop for fixing Citroen's or if it was just for themself. Maybe the cannabis came later and phased out as hoarding took over.

[@bigdude8470]

So…. You walk around the house, find random Citroen parts and guess they are off a bx or zantia……fast forward …. You go explore the garden and find , surprise surprise , Citroen bx and zantia ….. that was a good bit of guessing …… not!!

[@motorclaimguru]

the box is an oscilloscope

[@martinevans1256]

Shame people like this is why cars become rare so sad

[@Road2Rust]

I’m gunna rescue all of these cars for 2925 😂

[@rickhughes811]

Why is living like this sad ?????

[@robertlyman9789]

Because eventually you won’t be able to find your ass with both hands!

Another fine hoard!

[@brettjenson2588]

18.46min you found a grow room

[@Wsempson71]

I don't think the guy's locked up for growing weed because the police would never leave all bullets there.

No i think the guy got too old or just passed away, the neighbour next door would know everything about the man and what happened to him.
