Chicago native here... the field museum has some of the most famous dino murals painted by Charles Knight... all the moldorama dinos are based on his murals!! They were created i believe fior the 64 worlds fair in NY. Happy travels friend.

I am happy to see that the killer lions of Tsavo exhibit I worked on in 1996 is still the same. We updated it in preparation for the movie “The Ghost in the Darkness” by adding thorn bushes behind the lions. The thorn bushes were taken from trimmings from trees in Grant Park. We added long thorns to the branches by gluing painted toothpicks to them. The lions could not be moved, so we had to climb inside the case and paint around the lions. This was done during museum hours and I still remember hundreds of school children banging on the glass.

When you show the mold o rama making the figures I can smell the figure ❤❤❤

[@agerven]

Can only say this: It is an absolutely beautiful museum, well worth any trip to Chicago.

[@muthergoose4084]

I have been a member of the Field since 1994. I LOVE that museum with a passion and would often just wander the halls and sit to take it all in. All of these years later, I still have not seen or done everything. Welcome (back) to Chicago.

[@J31392]

This is one of the best museums I've ever been too. Actually been back 3 times. This brings back great memories.

[@Bob-jg3vq]

Great to see you making vlogs and spending time in my home City Chicago. The Field Museum is excellent, as is The Museum of Science and History and the Art Institute.

[@keegancan]

Thanks

[@Mr_Pickles_]

Super cool to see you at The Field! Chicago is lucky to have it.

I was at the field museum a couple weeks ago, honestly one of my favorite museums out there

Hi, I'm neurodivergent and I loved museums. Thank you for your videos, they allow me to travel with you from the comfort of my home.

[@1lonebird]

Thank you for taking me along on your adventure. This was so interesting. I love the taxidermy. Everything looks so life like. You crack me up with your enthusiasm for the Mold A Rama. Good to see you enjoying yourself.

[@emil-pelz]

Thank you, the visit was very interesting and beautiful, everything you don't see otherwise has been shown here!

[@miketwomey4923]

This museum and the remnants of the worlds fairs and the stadium are the only reason why I would visit Chicago...

[@johnlai4129]

Chicago Field Museum is definitely worth the trip.

It's been years since I've been to Field. Thank you so much for showing this. I hope to revisit my friend the cat spirit in the Egyptian room soon. Best wishes!

Went here not to long ago with my family! It’s amazing!

I laughed for a minute straight at the Sue Lynn Panda story. Thanks, I needed that. I like these museum vids, good job. 👍🏼

One of my favorites

@@TheCarpetbagger Discovering recently you are from Valparaiso, I wonder if you took exciting trips from the bedroom community to the big city on the lovely South Shore line. I'm obviously a region rat.

[@mommaice]

That was so awesome!! Must put on my bucket list for the summer road trips.

[@allexx123]

Thank you for the tour. I have not been to this museum since the middle 1970's . I lived in Milwaukee at that time. but now Milwaukee is going to have theirs demolished . Such a shame that the building is falling apart. Much of the exhibits will not make it to their new museum, which is smaller than the other one from the 1960's . So much will be lost.

[@nicholedecker9124]

Not racist. It's not racist to display the awesome difference in the human race. I really like the nature museums. Thank you for sharing your visit to this awesome museum!

We were just there a few weeks ago. Would have been crazy if we saw you there! Love all the info you give in the beginning. Maximo is huge but Sue is the reason we keep going back! It was so much more busy when you went. Always cool to see you at our home town. Happy New Year to you.

Growing up in Chicago, my 2 favorite places to visit were Field Museum and Brookfield Zoo. Was always fascinated by the dinosaur exhibit and the remarkable murals by Charles Knight.

[@minecraftaxolotlplushchann7787]

I remember that I went to the field museum in Chicago Illinois and also I’m from Chicago so I have heard of the field museum

[@viviennemorgan7217]

i love your museum tours.

[@punklover99]

Hell yes dude, my favorite museums. Touring exhibits and sue are always fun to check out The basement area with the picnic tables was such an odd place to put them. But made for an interesting lunch area on Field Trips

[@darlalapole2943]

Wonderful museum. I have not been there in many many years but it is always so interesting and one of my favorites!

[@matthewtaylor9452]

I love the field museum and I have very fond memories of it I remember about 4-5 years ago now I performed in the main room of the museum

[@mousetreehouse6833]

Thank you for this extrodenary trip through a museum that I, a New Englander, had never even heard of before, and is it ever a dandy!

[@HerWeekendTravels]

This is one of my favorite museums. I haven't been there in years so it was great seeing it again. 😊

This one is close to my heart

[@ceciraegagnon1901]

seeing you go to my childhood museums makes my day! thank you for visiting!!

[@rayindahay]

My mom and I had a great day, and when we got home we had tea and macaroons and watched this it was super fun

[@harolynallison6889]

Those molded figures would be really awesome to collect

[@craigchastain7016]

Just about EVERY kid who has been to the museum campus will remember those, they go way back. I think they started out of Wisconsin and are on other institutions in the country. Worth 5 bucks, no?

[@conniecrawford5231]

Jacob has a large collection and never passes up a machine without buying one! You must not sub to him and not knowing about his Mold-A_Rama collection

I love this museum! I grew up always going there. Brings back so many memories. I live in LAs vegas now so it's nice to see it. My favorite exhibit was always the dinos and the mummies. I was always into ancient Egypt.

[@Sparty-pi3jq]

Wow, I have not been there since the mid 80's as a very young kid. What a great place! I may have to take the kids on the 4 hour drive down 1-94 and check it out again. Thanks Jacob great video as usual.

[@lisabaca6793]

Don't know how i missed watching this one. Well hope you are recovering well can't wait for you to get better and post more videos

[@curri189]

Field is amazing, this and The Art Institute are enough to come visit Chicago.

[@craigchastain7016]

Science and Industry and Shedd Aquarium are amazing, Shedd is just gorgeous actually. Adler is ok. I guess it is like Pluto of them all, but great for laser light shows. In addition to the amazing, traditional artworks at the Art Institute, the Arms and Armor really does it for me.

[@BmoreLioness]

Never heard of this before, but I would love to visit. You went in during daylight and came out at night. Definitely would have to go at 8 am to see everything. Lol My favorite would have to be the Malvina Hoffman exhibit and the shrunken exhibit. The Malvina Hoffman statues were absolutely beautiful and was done in good taste. I don't see them as racist at all. It's other things that I saw as racist, but had nothing to do with Ms. Hoffman exhibit. I am super surprised to see all the Mold-a-ramas!! And they all worked!!! Lol Thanks Jacob!! Looks like I've added another place to visit on my Carpetbagger list.

[@tainvestor]

Awesome video. It was funny seeing a museum where I've actually been before and took so many photos. Good stuff!

[@ericklein6796]

Oh Jacob! You can’t be the only human skeleton in a primate display. That would only confuse people. I’ve been to the Field Museum once, many years ago. It was probably the best museum I’ve seen in the US. And the Science and Technology museum close by was also top notch.

[@jesm3086]

So excited to see you visit the Field museum! I recently went to Chicago and wasn't able to make it to the Field museum, so I just vicariously lived through your experience. Great video as always!

[@TommyTravels]

That place looks really cool! I think I'm heading to Chicago this weekend. I may have to put this and The Office Experience on the list.

[@noreob4748]

I was there earlier this year and want to go back again so bad. Such a fun city! Thanks for the video

[@Charlie-pu9bx]

If you ever come to England you should absolutely check out the Natural History Museum in London - it's one of my favourite museums in the UK. I think you'd love it! There's also another, smaller, Natural History Museum in Tring, about 30 miles outside of London. That's also worth checking out too!

[@nathanhorst8886]

Have not been here since they got the Beluga whales at the Shed Aquarium, Thanks for the tour. I need to go back. Do the Museum of Science and Industry PLZ.

Great book. Had to read it for school and hated it back then, then I reread it on my own and loved it.

I agree. The history is interesting in itself and the crime drama is almost so bizarre that it seems made up.
