WOW! What an adventure Jay. Interesting how the "new" culvert was linked to the "old" and where it ended up. I can't say where (for safety) when I was younger1976/1977), I got lost in a culvert system that led me into a 4 hour hell with my friends. Wound up under and into a very large industrial complex. This was a valuable lesson to be prepared (no extra batteries, flashlights, proper footwear, etc.) We were all charged with trespassing, lol, parents weren't too happy. Great times.

[@JPVideos81]

What a learning experience haha

[@magiccarvettrides]

I also follow Post10! The rusted section looks to be a cement slab. They will use any kind of support, like old rails, to hold up the plywood and lumber to form the concrete. Once the concrete cures the wood is not needed anymore. The running water looked like someone was washing their car because it was soapy. Great video!

[@PlannerMemaw]

Very cool. Thank you for sharing. Be careful, especially alone like that.

[@HookingGoodCreationsbyTinaC]

So this was the first video that I watched on your channel. As I was watching, I went through a few emotions. At first I was excited about seeing what it looked like and trying to ignore the racing thoughts of but what if it rains or what if someone is in there..lol. Then it would start over again. I wouldn’t try this myself, especially alone. Mostly because of the dislike for creepy crawler’s and nasty smells but also the fears that I already mentioned. I quite enjoyed this adventure. Thanks for inviting all of us along. Subscribed and liked as well.

[@foxygangster4014]

Wow. That was quite a journey! The music and voices frightened me. Thought you may have been walking into a sketchy situation. You are very brave.

[@Chaedron1]

Interesting video! It really got interesting when the material switched to old stone with a rock bed bottom. It reminds me of going through culverts with my brothers as a kid. We never found anything old though our area was too new for that. But Pennsylvania is an old place with a lot of new construction on top of old. I would love to see the area where the culvert ended and where you encountered that water from someone washing the sidewalk ( probably a storefront) I bet the houses and buildings you went under are pretty old in that one section. Keep up the urban exploring, it is very interesting to people who can no longer do those things.

I believe that this is my favorite of all of your videos. Thanks for sharing. I had a great time.

🤣 During your walk thru I was thinking you and Post 10 should of done a video together, then at the end you mentioned him. I do also remember him speaking of you while he was exploring different sections of The Pennsylvania Turnpike. It's amazing to see the hidden infrastructure that's under everything, that we don't think of, especially the old sections that took a lot of men and materials to build, another great video 👍.

There's a historic storm sewer in st paul. The first 100 ft is a 4ft tall square opening. Then it opens into 12ft arched brickwork. We went back about 10 miles. The manhole tunnels were bare white sand and probably 200ft above us.

This reminds me of a story my dad told me before he passed. I live in Bucksport, Maine 🇺🇸 & here there's a black pipe that runs from alamoosik lake over to Silver lake. ( silver lake was man made back in the 50's) anyhow, Dad got curious & decided to go from one end to the other. (it's about 8 miles) he got about a mile from the other end of it & the pump kicked on. He could hear the water rushing towards him so started running. Barely made it out, the water helped him the last bit of the pipe. Watching this made me think of that story he told me & I wanted to share it with you & the viewers. Appreciate you sharing your adventures with us!

[@JamesMartin2014]

This is known as a flood control project. Those big openings with the gates over them are emergency overflow points from the sanitary sewer and only open when there is enough water pressure behind them to lift those metal gates. Drainage projects like this are constructed by the army corps of engineers and are the reason many towns in Pennsylvania don't flood during heavy rains.

[@richiec7602]

Another great video, JP! The older stone workings look like they might date back to the late 1800’s to the early 1900’s. Curious to see if you can find an old map of the area online that might get you some info of what was there around that time frame and why it was built. Maybe an old railroad line?

[@Boromonkey]

I did something similar back in the 90s. Me and two friends traveled about half a mile and eventually found a golf cart about 100 yards short of the lake at the golf course that it emptied in to. My one friend was clawing at my jacket and scared to death the whole way. I guess because I was the only one carrying anything close to a weapon. We never let him live that down, lol. That one time was enough for me, though, too. Seeing that light disappear behind you as you go farther in is disconcerting.

You never explored sewer drains as a kid? We use to do this at least once a week where I'm from. It's not as scary as you might think and they don't fill up as much as you think. Besides all you have to do is check the whether before you go. Not to mention you can tell that sewer drain never filled up more than 1 or 2 feet ever. You can tell by the lines on the wall. Water stains the concrete when it rises leaving lines on the walls

I worked around Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN), Anhydrous Ammonia, Nitrogen, Methane, and More. My workplace also trained us for Confined Space Entry and Work. Due to the possibility of Gas being in various areas, we had to wear a 4 Gas Monitor. It measured Oxygen (O2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Lower Explosive Limit (LEL), and Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S). Oxygen can be displaced by other gases, can be utilized by materials in the Confined Space (Rust in Ship Confined Spaces consumes the Oxygen by Oxidation, for example), can Stratify (we wore the monitors at Breathing Level, you can bend over in a Confined Space and have Oxygen Deficiency that is not a problem when you're standing up), and, in our case, Oxygen Enrichment was possible, due to Oxygen used in the process in some areas, and used in the Confined Spaces for maintenance such as cutting or welding by Torch. Enrichment can result in Fires, for example. The peculiar thing about Oxygen is that the body feeling like it's not getting enough oxygen is not driven by the Lack of Oxygen so much as it's driven by too much Carbon Dioxide CO2 in the blood (as may occur with certain medical conditions). Symptoms of CO2 Over-Exposure (such as by using a CO2 Fire Extinguisher in an enclosed area) are Increased Rate and Depth of Respiration, and Increased Heart Rate. I have spoken to employees rendered unconscious by Oxygen Deficiency due to Nitrogen Atmospheres, they had no awareness that they were Oxygen Deficient (because CO2 was not building in their blood) and continued to work, one man said he Passed-Out without symptoms and woke to find himself on the walkway grating, having fortunately fallen away from the Nitrogen Enrichment. Exhaust fumes can be drawn into a Confined Space, say, for example, construction vehicles were running nearby, and pose a physical threat to the explorer (other vapors and fumes can be present from other sources). Using an Oxygen (O2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) Monitor would be best, and if Waste Products (Sewage or similar) were present, adding H2S to the line-up wouldn't hurt. The Monitor should be Calibrated and Tested against a Calibration/"Bump Test" Gas before use each day they are needed, and the units fully charged, or new batteries used, whichever is the case). The old section of Culvert was something to avoid, as the bricks collapsing on you can be unpredictable, though much of it appeared fully intact. The videos you produce are great, but taking the risk in the collapsing area really isn't worth it overall.

The only thing more surprising than how clean most of that was, is that you didn't bring some kind of sampling/panning stuff to see if you could find any placer deposits of gold. With all that road runoff, there would certainly be a lot of platinum in the sediment, though it would likely be too fine to pan for.

Anyways, in the past I did mapping for a municipality in Maine in a sewer and storm water dept and from my experience I can say that the town where you were would most likely love to view their footage so they could grade the pipe. The downside would be that they would tell you to stop going into culverts. During my time I walked many a culverts and found it very interesting. Thank you for making videos like this!

Its most likely a series of natural ravines, streams and maybe some digging to connect parts together. If you read stuff about how they deal with water passage when they turn land from wild to usable, they like to leave natural water flow intact and them build over it

A long time ago 1974,when I was 18,I got up to go to work,I found an excavator in the allley behind my house ,doing sewer construction. He was trying to dig up the ground,so I stood there and watched him,he asked me to get him a flashlight as his had gone dim. Anyways,he had hit an old sewer tank for cattle stock yards,that no one knew about. To make the point here,I was warned by another city worker never go into sewer tunnels as I said I'd love to explore this one maybe,they installed a huge man way there,but left am opening to the underground sewage vault. To do this,they had modified the sewer culvert manway by cutting out a portion so you could enter the underground vault,it went back farther then my flashlight could see! The area where our houses where built on,used to be Hiram Walkers cattle stock yard before the houses were built! When we were children the back yards used to flood right there and there was a square upraised sewer grate in the neighbors backyard not like the ones used for that time. Years later,my friend decided to explore this manway,and fell about 10 feet onto it through.the manhole cover into the sewage and human waste!,when I came over to my friends house,I could smell human feces ,him and another young man had entered this sewer man way. I informed him,he was lucky he had air down there to breath and wasn't DEAD,because sewage ways are full of toxic poisonous gases,or the handles placed in the cemet in 1974 hadn't rotted off, and he was very lucky to get out! In 1993! So,when you explore these places,keep this in mind,and carry an oxygen sensor!and if your eyes start to show stars in them,turn around and exit the area ir cave,tunnel or mine shaft as your oxygen is low or your breathing bad air! Or poison gases!
