As a life long resident of Pennsylvania and a retiree of Mine Safety Appliances, I’m pretty familiar with coal miners and their equipment. At MSA, I worked for a few years in the first manufacturing department the company had; making miners batteries, the headlamps for them and all of the internal parts for them. We thought a lot about doing it right as people’s lives depended on it. One of our teammates husband started out in a mine near Cheswick.

I don't know if guys notice, it looks more like this tunnels are actually purposely blocked. One part I was watching there was no way that pile of stone came from the ceiling!!! Around 3:44 minutes in!!! That pile of stone didn't collapse, it was stacked there!!! Awesome video!! Keep up the great work!!👍💪

As children in NE PA northeast of Scranton we would explore the old mines especially in the summer they were nice and cool we found a half case of dynamite, lmao I'll never forget the look on my father's face when he found us in the garage trying to find a way to set it off,it was the only time I ever saw the color drain from his face. The dynamite was very old we tried burning it dropping heavy weight on it shooting it with deer rifels nothing works. I guess that old adage God watches out after fools and children is true . Great video

My ancestors were immigrant coal miners in Coaldale - about 90 miles N of Philly- they called it The Hole- one brother was a pipe fitter. Another was a bottom man - who did the dangerous work of building out the new shafts- he was killed in WW2 - they were fearless men - knowing every day they might be coming home in a body bag. I’m reading their letters now from 90 years ago, they make me cry…especially when I see these tunnels… brave & fearless….😢

That object you were asking about at around the 8 minute mark was a lifting bar for moving an oil tank when it's on a wheeled skid. Much like what is used for a portable waste container when dumping an RV and hauling the ugly water to the dump station. Some have a loop at the end that you can drop over a trailer hitch ball.

Offices must be designed to be safe places, where a person could be safe from cave ins. This one has 4 solid concrete walls, with door and windows. It looks like a place one could hang out! If it’s not too wet, you could fit it out like a vacation home, a place where you could go, and nobody could find you!!!

The Tunnels of Hell Firstly, their are five main themes to Hell. And each theme can be identified by the walls that you are surrounded by. Furthermore, the first theme of Hell is the Cathedral. And that is the surface. In addition, the next theme of Hell is the Catacombs. And that is an underground bricked bone storage and religious prison area. In addition, the third theme of Hell is the Caves. And they are any kind of cave system that runs down to around 3-4 kilometres deep. In addition, the deeper theme of Hell is the Tunnels. And Hell Tunnels are full of meat and oversized bones. Lastly, the final theme of Hell is the Burning Pits and that is where you can find hot lava. Next, in the movie called "The Decent" the cave explorers enter the Tunnels of Hell. And down their are the Dragon Worms and the Dragon Kin. Furthermore, the Tunnels of Hell are very simple to explain. For example, when a person falls down in to Hell Caves or Tunnels they sometimes can not get back out. Therefore, when your stuck in Hell you can eat dirt and mud. And that actually grows us until we are 1-10 tonne in body weight. We also look like a Dragon at 5-10 tonne. Therefore, when we die in Hell we leave behind 1-10 tonne of meat. We also reproduce at these heavy body weights and produce some really strange looking dependants called Dragon Kin.

It seems to me that the exact placements of some of this abandoned equipment must contain clues to how they worked, and what it was like to work in a mine, clue that will be lost if we disturb them. Therefore, we shouldn’t disturb them! Somebody else may come along in 50, 100 or 300 years, to see what is left (if anything), and they should be able to see it.
