"Alien gas station with a brothel next to it.." Only in America.

[@ryanchavez2645]

it has a alien statue

[@MandieTerrier]

Nevada is the only state where prostitution is legal

[@187onasimp]

after Trump is president it will be legal in all 50

[@shereesheree7735]

+Erin Smith - it's not the entire state. Only in certain counties. Las Vegas is in Clark County & prostitution is illegal. Drive 40

[@shereesheree7735]

+Erin Smith - it's not the entire state. Only in certain counties. Las Vegas is in Clark County & prostitution is illegal. From Vegas, go west about 40 minutes to go over the hump to Pahrump l (Nye County) and prostitution is legal.😊

[@fuzzydunlop7928]

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

[@MexiKen516]

It was a mining operation built just before WW2 by a company from the Philippines. The war broke out before the mine was fully operational and after the war the owners never came back. It has been rotting away out there ever sense. It is located just south of Beatty. Now you know.

[@sallylouise9826]

I like your narration and the way America is full of decaying abandoned places especially off the beaten track .

[@breannathompson9094]

There are always 3 things that weird abandoned places out in the desert can be, from experience. Mining like you mentioned. Mock cities. Places where workers would stay for cheap, like indentured servants type workers.

[@stephaniestuart3041]

The mountains in the background are beautiful with all the lines and colors. Here in Colorado, as you start to head into Utah, the mountains start to look like that, but the ones in this video are stunning. Speaking of Colorado, Dan, I think you'd love the abandoned ghost towns of the Colorado mountains. There are several famous ones that have been preserved, but hundreds of others that aren't. You should check them out!

[@lavishlava6076]

That place looks very apocalyptic

[@maxwohlert2367]

Hy Dan, i m from Germany and I really like your Videos. Well, the place you are in this video, looks to me like a training place for special operations. I train myself in a german place like that, near Hammelburg. In the german army ( Bundeswehr), we call it "Orts und Häuserkampf".

[@chipbush0111]

The pinnacle of this channel would be ASMR videos about exploring narrated by Dan.

[@StephGr]

I sure don't mind. Your voice is lovely.

[@ketteh_bandit8537]

watch out for deathclaws

[@rachelle6339]

I love your quiet time videos

[@kimm6189]

I'm thinking it was a Protective barrier for when they did atomic testing back in the good old atomic days... Another great video thanks Dan!! 😎

[@lauraromdeussen864]

It's too far from Mercury, NV, for that. You can tour the atomic testing site if you want, but it varies between a 6 month and 2 year wait to tour it.

[@bigbrother2478]

Weird! A lot of the structures look like they were never finished or used. Very interesting video!!!

[@cindyhernandez152]

I'm really loving these Nevada desert videos. I lived in Yerington, NV for about ten years, and I did a lot of roaming around and exploring the desert back then. These structures remind me of a bizarre castle that sits all by itself along Hwy 95-A near Wabuska (I think. It's been many years) Anyway, great video, Dan. I hope you have a few more desert ones.

[@kimberlyrav]

DONT forget to make more of these Quiet Time vids. They are why I fell in love with your channel, other than Leakin' Park of course.

[@nicomyraven43]

I can't wait to get out to this place someday, because 2:27, 3:44, 5:47 and 6:14 would make great photos; especially if you could get a better snap of the second floor windows. Great work!

[@aeonicbutterfly9662]

For one, I'm local, and even I only take day trips like this in the middle of Winter. You heat up really quick if you don't. For two, maybe you should swing by my hometown sometime. It's one of those places that isn't really weird at first glance, but it has a lot of interesting history and a lot of nearby areas that are fun to visit. We also live near a couple of ghost towns that still stand, and nearly abandoned mining towns.

[@lauraromdeussen864]

I'm a local as well!!! Which town are you in?

[@kevshearer3245]

@@lauraromdeussen864 - Liverpool, Britain

[@kevshearer3245]

are you from tonopah?

[@thecatsmeowfromny]

Will needs to stop wearing black clothes in 120 degree heat! LOL

[@EphemeralProductions]

he does seem to like black. lol

[@luissdstuff6381]

Exactly...black absorbs heat...and wear a hat too.

[@oldenweery7510]

And I thought, when I saw he was wearing his usual sneakers, "His rubber soles are gonna stick to the ground if he keeps wearing 'em in that heat! "

[@Dyaxxis]

I know of a wierd, yet majestic place off I-17 between Flagstaff and Phoenix, which would be also several miles southeast of Prescott. It's called Arcosanti, AZ. It was featured at the very end of the Italian-American action b-movie "Vendetta dal Futuro" (a.k.a. "Hands of Steel", "Atomic Cyborg", etc.). I don't believe it's abandoned, but it's one of those strange desert artworks from an Italian immigrant.Very surreal.

[@lucytea5073]

Great video Dan xx

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

Carrara, NV - Cement Plant An old cement plant near the ghost town of Carrara, Nevada photos.legendsofamerica.com/nv-southern/h25ac029#h25ac029

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

Carrara - A town founded on marble quarrying, the settlement got its start as early as 1904, but it wasn't officially dedicated until 1913. The post office closed in 1924. A cement company built several buildings about a mile north of the townsite in 1936, but it never began operations. The ruins of several large stone buildings associated with the old cement company can still be seen. At the townsite itself, little is left but a few foundations. Up the hill are the sparse remains of the Gold Ace Mine and the marble quarries. It is located 8.75 miles south of Beatty, Nevada on US 95.

[@judithwatson6859]

W1se0ldg33zer Ah, thanks, mate, I love it when someone takes the time to investigate! You are a wise old geezer, to be sure!

[@oldenweery7510]

Funny, I was thinking along those lines when I saw that large, perfectly circular opening in the building that had been opened up by damage. Also, there are other circular openings cast into small structures for pipes, plus there are footings for elevated steel constructions. Those doorways with elegant semi-circular lintels were preferred in a lot of poured concrete gravel crushers and the like.

[@angiewestall1645]

i love that place-the arches and circles are really beautiful to me for some reason-GREAT VIDEO

[@MrGaryRoberton]

If you got lost out there, you might finish up as rattlesnake bait, or, Coyote Crisps Thanks for the look Dan.

[@4exgold]

Dan next time you (or anyone watching this) go to this site, bring an old step ladder with you and put it into that structure...at least if someone falls in theyll be able to climb out.

[@sezjamaelstrom9696]

I was thinking that too, or put really anything you could down there. A block, more rocks, some rope, better than nothing.

[@seanz6397]

Great video, Dan. I live in Southern California and have traveled all over the Calif, AZ, and NV deserts. You can find some real 'mind bending' structures out there. Really enjoy all your videos. Stay safe guys !

[@andrewbrendan1579]

Fascinating place , Dan. The view starting at about 1:47 looks like the view from a temple to the sun, something you might find in Central or South America. I know this complex wasn't built for religious purposes but it reminds me of a temple complex. Here in Indiana the humidity level is sky high; it gets over 90% without raining. I would love to stop breathing water. Next time you and will head for the desert I'm inviting myself along!

[@hatednyc]

Dying to come along and explore with Dan & Co. They find the best shit!

[@jacquimayton2466]

Great as always! This place makes me hot just looking at it. Funny story- I'm a natural redhead, pale skin, blue eyes. I always get comments from Latinos and Indians (from India) about my skin and stuff. Almost every Indian I've run into tells me I should go to India, I would be a supermodel. So July 2006, I go to Mexico for surgery. It was 109°. I spent approximately 5 whole minutes outside, taking a walk around the hospital. When I came in I was sunburned. Nothing unusual for me, but the entire nursing staff flipped shit thinking something was wrong. Finally one is like "YOU DON'T TAN????" I'm like "No." The look on their faces... 😂 So basically all these people from very hot places think I'm some exotic beauty, because like, there is not a single redhead on this planet that would make it past like 15 minutes in those climates, Lol.

[@MandieTerrier]

I can identify. I can't sit in front of a white wall. I blend in

[@Tunnelfish2]

Keep speaking softly and gently, like Bob Ross.

[@xkodax21]

Good narration dan, I hope you and Wil are doing great can't wait for the next video!

[@loditx7706]

Where do you think the workers lived? Did you notice that some of the openings in the ruined buildings were round? Some of them seemed small enough to take big pipes or something, but in one the round opening was really large. It was round on one side, but the other side was damaged and broken off, so it was a round opening at one time and seemed to take up the whole wall. It is so terrible there. Can you imagine living around there and going to that place to work every day?

[@jennicase]

Everyone LOVES your voice Dan!

[@faithdaily1959]

Looks like a military compound. Matching cement foundations is a big clue.

[@Brianthehistorynerd]

Creepy but cool place nice job guys!

[@exploringwithlarry4140]

take all the rocks and stuff in the corner and climb out

[@YouthfulElf]

I was thinking that, too!

[@kevins1114]

What you found there was the foundations of an ore processing facility. Nearby, there would be the road bed for a narrow-gauge railroad track, coming from those mines. For the mining company to build such facilities, those would have been very high-production mines at one time.

[@goingslightlymad7172]

A really unique location! Good work!

[@buddyanddaisy123]

Looks like the base of a radio tower-probably used for radio navigation beacon station-these went obsolete by 1950.

[@kimberleywright3277]

Those mountains are awesome!

[@Milcom34]

Cool Video Dan. You and Will Take Care and Keep Filming!!!!!

[@carolinewaite7185]

This is fascinating to see. Wouldn't like this a night - although cooler! Must have been a busy place in it's day. Watch out for rattlers!!

[@Fashionablyreading]

Is Dan's voice soothing or is it just me? 😌

[@spooderman4990]

Soothing.

[@j887276]

It's just you.

[@Fashionablyreading]

@@j887276 Thanks for the clarification. After 4 years I can finally move on with my life🙃

[@SeanAndersonMedia]

This would make a great film set!

[@Michael-py8uq]

I get to watch two videos from Dan Bell and a video from Adam the Woo this day is starting off great

[@kevinshrubsole6247]

I think any directions that begin with "there is an alien gas station with a brothel next too it" means you are going to start an adventure or end up in jail

[@tnbspotter5360]

It looks like one of those "cities" the military builds to practice raids and urban warfare. The structures look too random to serve any office or industrial function.

[@ScottScottJenniGerber]

Enjoyed the video.... Have a good one.

[@YouthfulElf]

Makes me think of some of the things you would find around Fortuna Mine!

[@luissdstuff6381]

What a fascinating and creepy place. And Will should at least be wearing a wide brimmed hat! 120 degrees is vicious to be in. Love your Film It series. Didn't know there were so many odd, weird, and unique places in America. As for the alien gas station, dude you should've taken some videos. I'd kill to see an alien pumping gas!

[@lauraromdeussen864]

Ne-VAH-dah, with the first a like apple and the second a like autumn. I had a friend in the room when this was playing and every time we heard it, we'd call out "It's NeVAHdah!" ;)

[@atarian345]

An alien gas station with a brothel next to it - Got it

[@kyliedunseph5120]

Funny thing is I actually know exactly where that is

[@lynne99]

its always creepy how quite things are when you guys film

[@CuracaoLife]

Nice structures!

[@Chronas9.9]

You should make more of these

[@1964ianb]

Looked like Luke Skywalker's abandoned agricultural college. I kept expecting Will to be abducted by jawas.

[@TheSWolfe]

Interesting spot. Wonder what it used to be.

[@JD-dq8zn]

Longer. I want more! 😀👍👍👍👍

[@gazoo-pl4nx]

possibly art bell's unfinished home

[@SixArmedSweater]

3:15 Deep in the desert, a plaintive cry: "Booze!"

[@aaronfromwesternmass4293]

Those look like fortified structures, they look military.

[@fibonacciCache]

I think I heard a grindr message notification "bloop" at 1:05

[@chipbush0111]

Was it your phone?

[@tammysmith3560]

I have seen you check out desert places. Have you ever thought of metal detecting these places?

[@WolfenEXE]

There are many mysterious things in the desert.

[@lisayoung1517]

if you have been through Nevada, then sometime you should visit colorado

[@gregvarner9562]

It looks like its been partially removed. Like parts of it have been taken away. It has to be military because they didn't want people finding parts of it...

[@StalwartShinobi]

do more abandoned movie places like the peewee diner video that was cool

[@marksmediatv7734]

Some ones dream home not come true.

[@aprilpaguia5594]

wow!

[@LauraStar127]

120° Fahrenheit is the equivalent of 48° C... I'd die

[@octoberhanke2598]

on the drive to california there is an empty gas station in the middle of nowhere that has "enjoy the ride" graffitied on it!! you and will should definitely check out AZ's deserts.. and also there is a lot of abandoned places in arizona in some of the more suburban areas !!!!!!

[@kevshearer3245]

do you mean coaldale? on highway 95

[@Rugbykevin9753]

It looks like a art instillation

[@thatwitchychic170]

Possible abandoned alien settlement, I'm guessing. :D

[@chelebear74]

Looks like Fallout to me like they were shelters or something at one time.

[@NuclearXpotato1100]

Dan, you should true to use Google Maps to find the coordinates of the more remote locations.

are you guys back home now?

It almost looks like a religious compound of some sort.

Cool :)

[@eternaldarkness6]

it's the cat house brothel. lol I have a magnet

[@carolynperez8626]

Were you and Will near a city named Pahrump?

[@birdster2007]

seems to me to look like military engine testing facility....

[@shereesheree7735]

In Nevada, everything is possible.No joke about it. In the middle of the state, completely surrounded by desert, there's the Naval Undersea Warfare Training Center (in Hawthorne). We used to watch the submarine races there when I was a kid.😆

[@jacquimayton2466]

+Sheree Sheree That's really interesting, now I'm going to have to look that up lol.

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

It's a cement plant.

[@faithdaily1959]

With what looks to be a church?

[@FBIMOUS377]

Too bad they demolished The Wolfe Manor where I live :( you guys could have checked it out.

[@2utoday]

The creepy part of this video is you guys not wearing hats to protect yourselves in the sizzling 120 degree heat. Or, would wearing hats hamper getting this cool video? I would think wearing big straw hats would of helped a lot. Just saying. I still think your videos are great and I give this one thumbs up with five stars! Your voice over was interesting.

[@ixnexus]

Got ASMR.

[@gregprout1]

+dan bell / film it . please film in a small town called darwin. it's just north of China lake. cheers

[@namekop11]

movie props

[@emilphoryew9436]

120 degrees. Dangerous to be in that. I'd run for shade instead of film. Interesting area though. A great place to forget about life and its current circumstances.

[@lauraromdeussen864]

That's called summer out here. We get up to about 123, sometimes for days at a time. When it gets to be 80 in the mornings, I honestly go put on a hoodie.

[@LikaLaruku]

Ah, you were in Nevada? I regret not begging you to visit Old Town Mall in Reno. It's pronounced Nuh,vyeah,duh btw.

[@selahstar]

welcome to Hell. I live in Utah. it gets hot here.

There was a mentally ill tagger who wrote CHAKA everywhere. He even tagged the elevator in the courtroom. I don't know if any survive but they were more common than GNC or Bath N Body works LOL.
