Ripley's Believe it or Not Gatlinburg 2021

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

I love how confident Carpetbagger seems, actually pretending to die in the cauldron cooking pot with everyone about 🤣🤣🤣

[@skittywitch]

hahahaha i was thinking the same...even thinking about the people who whats the security camera's if everything is going well hahaha

[@cosmicwanderer457]

I can only imagine how confused and scared that poor bear would have been having that tire stuck on him. That's really sad.

[@rickherod5828]

Thank You for doing what you do. I am old and it's hard to travel but thur your videos I can travel the USA Thank You

[@splinky9226]

That car tire bear was from the Panama City Beach museum. Very recently, Ripley’s bought the remains of a miniature horse named Smidget that met a lot of celebrities (Henry Winkler, Michael Jackson) and played a unicorn on Fairy Tale Theater, and they plan on putting her in the museum so its possible she’ll take the spot that once held the “tire bear.”

[@Darth-if5hw]

Auto parts Godzilla would win, because tire Kong would go flat....ha ha

[@elizabethalvarado8698]

As Fozzie Bear would say, "Wocka-wocka-wocka!"

[@karentucker2161]

Lol 😂

[@theguy81642]

Love waking up to some Carpet Bagger on my day off! Tire Kong obviously would win!

[@stifledvoice]

No! Gah-zee-rah would win. The tire monkey is no match for that hulking full metal terror.

[@bandito3322]

@Yourlocalautist I think he said something about King Kong seriously losing in a smart aleck way, but I can’t fully remember. I apologize :/ but you’re prolly lucky you didn’t have to deal with that troll lol

[@FranFry]

The videos always feel like going on road trips ☺️

[@1funkateer847]

I love Joe Dirt. My favorite scene is when he lights the giant firework and his friend just turns to ash and blows away. DAAAaaaang!

[@susansmith8514]

Love this place. Havent been since it was redone. And did not know that it burned down back then and I've been going to Gatlinburg and that Ripleys since 96

[@STEELBEATZHalloween]

This is probably the most unique museum I've ever seen. I'd like to visit it some day

[@brianholland2916]

6:28 Thank God you gave the Arnold thumb up. Made my day

[@robblaster9556]

That dating machine with the 3d screen is so cool! I don't know if those kind of machines or screens are more popular now but that's the first one I've seen. It really looks like you're staring at a bust in a box!

[@MrIamLife]

enjoying this series of videos very much thank you from over the pond :)

[@CaptainRockBand]

I actually went there on March for Spring Break this year. And let me tell you, this was the best Ripley odditorium I’ve been to. No kidding, it has everything. In fact, this video shows it best.

[@zanetaylor5639]

I collect smashed pennies and have a book I keep them in. The book is called a smashed penny passport and it has pockets on the inside to put the smashed pennies in. I recommend you get one and keep it in your car for when you find a smashed penny machine. This should keep you from losing them.

[@StrawJerry666]

I was just there at the same time! I missed you. Big fan!

[@juanzapata492]

Wow 🤩 Jacob; you know your history

[@TheChildressAdventures]

Great video. The guy in the bathroom mirror had scared me 😂 The jungle section with the shrunken heads were so odd. Thank you for a great video 🙂

[@DarkSt0rm009]

Ok seeing the scrap Godzilla (based on the design from either Final Wars or Vs Destroyah) may have just given me the biggest grin, ngl

[@NOLADEEJ]

I love Ripley's!! This particular one I have always wanted to visit.

[@MahouBakaW]

Wasn't expecting to hear the theme song to Wild Arms in that restroom.

[@bg199083]

Love waking up to Carpetbagger videos whenever I eat my cereal! What adventures are in store for Jake next?

[@TheMendeer]

My wife, son and I, just did a trip across Tennessee and back, and we did it all from being inspired by your videos! Thanks so much? We are now huge fans. We left back to Memphis to big cypress lodge (closer to Texas than the smokies area) but stoked to see you were at ripleys a day apart from us!

[@dancalmpeaceful3903]

Outstanding vid - one of your best and MOST fun! Thanks!

[@OldMovieRob]

I love how they switch up things.

[@gabyleonetti7318]

Seriously so amazing 🤩!!!!!!! 🥰

[@samanthacaldwell6287]

I literally went to this museum today! And I was talking to my girlfriend about your videos on KZbin about the museums. What a small world that two days before I go here, that you were there! Haha, thought I would share.

[@1funkateer847]

I visited this Ripley's in 2018. There are new things! A great excuse to road trip.

[@Larissa-le7dk]

Star-spangled license plates were awesome

[@alexgeorge501]

i love Carpetbagger's videos! He is truly the modern-age equivalent of Robert Ripley

[@splinky9226]

That Godzilla was originally displayed in Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Copenhagen. One of the items that perished in the 1992 fire was a camel armrest chair gifted to Mr. Ripley by Mahatma Ghandi in 1923.

[@garyzimmerman62]

That "dissected man" kinetic piece of art is WAY cool! It reminded me of "Mr. Nobody" from Doom Patrol...

[@Amanda-kw1vi]

It reminded me of a show that used to be on tv oddities or something? Some weird antique place in NYC, one of the ppl there did sculptures like that.... Creepy

[@MsDisneylandlover]

Loved how u explain off the exhibits.

[@SnackHeadCowboy]

I just read an article about Chamouni and apparently he died in that oven 😬

[@MsDisneylandlover]

U loved those type of places. It looks busy out there. Your intro cartoon lol. What is written on the ball looks like facts? Kool video...

[@c0ldl1k3ice]

So you could say that she..."panned a bear" eh? Eh? No? I'll see myself out...

Hilarious commentary.thanks jacob

[@roserenee9805]

Love how you go “don’t read this” at 26:38 and rule 5 is “JUST KIDDING! Never attempt this! Professionals only!” 😂 Thanks for sharing this video with us! As usual it’s awesome and fun to watch 😄

[@AZITHEMLGPRO]

I’m just here to appreciate seeing unmasked people indoors but then again Tennessee 🤣

[@Nonconformist515]

"but then again Tennessee" I hope i'm misconstruing this, but you weren't mocking us by any chance were you?

[@bigjohn3928]

Seen you first time there in 2018..,Seems they have added quite a bit of really cool items....Thanx

Loved all the pins on the hat i have a vest full of pins from Disneyland.

[@jdssurf]

Bro u wearin socks and crocs lmao

[@willku9000]

Car Part Godzilla would win. That is So awesome that I am willing to overlook the fact that they made him bright Green. Godzilla’s canonical color scheme is more Black but it’s a common thing to make him green.

[@sleepinginmoss]

Omg the kids staring at you in the beginning lmao

[@theflockfather4377]

Awesome video Jacob!

[@amberdb1799]

Love you videos, also I'm a big crush Penny collector. So you know they make books to hold them so you don't lose then

[@MutantWendigo]

Oh really, they do? I never knew that... ;-;

[@karentucker2161]

I need to find me one... I only have a few but don't want to lose them.

[@katebate89]

Come to Sault Ste Marie, MI! If you like engineering, the Soo Locks are very cool! But! There’s a hidden gem that a lot of tourists don’t know about. It’s a restaurant called Antlers. If you like taxidermy animals, this is the place to go! They have at least a hundred animals in the dinning area! Including a polar bear! It’s crazy! (Local secret: if you ask, they’ll play the ship whistles and sirens for you!)

[@katebate89]

Oh! I forgot to mention that it’s haunted. 👻

[@iiStump]

Wow! i'm literally about to go here and be in Gatlinburg in like 2 weeks! dang i just missed you haha

[@ebonhawken574]

Nice to see people not wearing masks and just enjoying life again. Gatlinburg seems like such a nice place to visit. Would love to go there sometime.

Made the mistake of eating while you were talking about shrunken heads lol.

Kong would win if he wasn’t too “tire”d. Ha ha always a weird place.

[@katgirl476]

I think Godzilla would win. Assuming she didn't fall apart.

[@bigjohn3928]

Lol... Jacob bluntly sez.."They pretty much cut an animals head off,& blow it up like a ballon". The End!

Budai is often confused for Buddha. The entity who is always seen as obese and jovial, is Budai.

[@TheFacrecords]

I can’t believe it! I shan’t believe it! I don’t believe it! I won’t believe it!

[@Drgnfly799]

I'm pretty sure phones listen cause I just got back from Tennessee and I even went to believe it or not. It's really cool and I love ripleys

[@Charlie-pu9bx]

At 9:22 that's actually not Buddha. That figure is actually Budai, also known as the Laughing Buddha, and is a deity which represents happiness and plenty. There is only one Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, a man who lived in the 6th BCE, and was born a wealthy Prince. He then decided to leave that live behind to find out the meaning of existence, which he eventually found while meditating under the Bodhi tree. He then became Buddha, which means the awakened one, and his teachings spread across Asia, and the world, and this is where Buddhism comes from.

[@freakishuproar1168]

Car Partzilla might get the upper hand initially after blasting King König with his radioactive breath, but the subsequent setting-on-fire of the rubbery 'rilla would churn out so much black smoke that Partzilla would cough himself to death. So a tie, I guess? :p
