Spots of Great Mystery: The Coral Castle and Spook Hill

[@scarystardust5175]

The Coral Castle is amazing. Clearly, he had help from magical ghost alligators. And the drone footage was beautiful!

[@CAROLINATONY]

The drone at Coral Castle was a nice touch

[@Cherocana]

Your explorations have added so many ‘must see’ locations to my list! Thanks for sharing!

[@igneousidol]

Coral Castle is another place on my bucket list...tfs

[@limbrat5448]

I was wondering if you had ever visited Coral Castle. My all time favorite road side spots. Your flicks are getting me through some hard times. I enjoy your content very much. Thanks a bunch.

[@EAToday24]

I wish I lived in America and was able to explore all these amazing places, thank you for showing us!

[@4everspace]

I love clowns! My mom always loved them, so I grew up with statues and portraits of clowns in our house. I always wondered why people were afraid of them? I never was.

[@racheldelgado9216]

Another fun trip. Thanks for taking us along.

[@zig_zagman]

Jacob, love your use of the phrase "as one is wont to do"! Just for that, I would give you a thumbs-up for the video, but the spook hill and the Stop for low flying planes sign sealed the deal.

[@jamesdugan3079]

Got a bad feeling about that gator joint. Glad you left.

[@newmanoutdoors1564]

Always wanted to visit Coral Castle . Still even remember as a kid When the TV show In Search of did a show on the Castle .

[@PeepshowMenagerie]

Director Doris Wishman's NUDE ON THE MOON was filmed at the Coral Castle as well. A Nudist Sci-Fi epic from 1961! :D

[@Norweeg]

That clown museum was the scariest thing about this video. Also, fun fact, the Coral Castle is not made out of actual coral, but instead is made out of sedimentary rock (oolite limestone).

[@qdood]

Have been to coral castle many times as it is near my home. You did a nice job with the story and a great job with the drone video. Hope you enjoyed it and thanks for posting this for us.

[@SuperEnthused]

qdood It’s near my home too and I’ve been going there my whole life. I’ve had it on my list to film since day 1 when I started my channel but haven’t gotten to it yet, but I will. It’s a place I’ve been going since I was a kid and go all the time as an adult.

[@jumpnrun3368]

That coral castle is what inspired Billy Idol to write sweeet Sixteen :)

[@mustangcindy1303]

Spook Hill you are actually going up a small hill backwards. You have to let the car keep rolling more than a couple of feet and then you will see it a little better. 😊 Surprised you didn’t visit the Bok Tower in Lake Wales.

[@ruthgail]

spook hill sign said park on white line then neutral then let it roll back. love your videos

[@MsWDWFAN1]

Homestead is where I was born. While I lived there I never went to Coral Castle. But when I returned to visit I went. They say he brought that coral all the way from the Keys. It's an amazing mystery for sure!

[@erickerickson3793]

Hi Jacob , You went back to the runway stop sign its Odd But true. I love love love the piece you did on Coral Castle. The story and the visuals are all magnificent. Your composition is so artistic and it really brings us there . thanks

[@dragonosx]

The Billy Idol song "Sweet Sixteen" was inspired by the story of the Coral Castle.

[@lissachocolate]

Ahhhh. An age-old mystery solved. The light goes out when you close the fridge door! Loved the variety in your videos!

[@melissawinstead8701]

That was spooky. Great video. Congratulations on 100k subscribers!

[@RhettyforHistory]

Spook Hill is like the magnetic hill in Oklahoma. It's a fun novelty to take people to who have never experienced it.

[@maggieanderson3778]

All those places you visited brought back a lot of wonderful memories of me & my folks going on vacation. Thank you my friend.

[@themichaelvortex4784]

Great work Jacob! Always wanted to visit The Coral Castle. Thank you! Safe travels!🤘🏼👍🏼

[@MerAngel12121]

Very interesting story about the small man that built the coral castle, Jacob. T.Y. once again, from this Nor Cali Gall.

[@MrGizmogrey]

I was at the gator land when I was 10 years old! I remember it like yesterday! I'm almost 46 now, so that was 36 years ago! I wonder when it closed? It was an amazing place! I have pictures from my visit somewhere in the attic.

[@lukeherbert25]

Cool video man. Keep up the great on the videos!!

[@bonniemoreland8558]

That drone footage was the best..I seen the Coral place a long time ago..the drone took it to a whole new perspective..👍💖👍💖👍💖

[@tonytorre9432]

If you're going to Key West make sure to check the haunted doll at the East martello museum

[@karenhamilton956able]

We go every year & say hello to Robert😁

[@abandonedtnhistory7488]

I did not know he was not that tall. Makes his accomplishments even greater, I feel.

[@howtobe123]

HAPPY 100,000 SUBS CARPETBAGGER!!!!!!

[@oldmanhuppiedos]

Beautiful surroundings and stories, and all for 10 cents.

[@dustyblue2ify]

Coral Castle ~ Yes! Thanks for sharing :)

[@shinynblue]

I suggested Coral Castle when Jacob asked where he should go by leaving a comment. I was shocked he actually went there! I feel so cool

[@tabithadunlap1340]

I think the the whole car thing on spook hill would be something to do at night. Great video as always!! :)

[@christopherlucas4620]

100k hit today!!! Congratulations!!

[@sarahnilla9381]

The one near where I live works, we call it Gravity Hill. We tried it on both sides of the hill, we got pushed up on both sides. It was pretty cool.

[@psychotriaboy]

Loving the Florida trip! May I offer a "few" recommendations for you heading north along the West Coast; 1) Pyramid Village in Ft. Myers/Estero, 2) Edison/Ford Winter Estate in Ft. Myers, 3) The Bubble Room Restaurant and "Museum" (this place is a must!) 4) Solomon's Castle in Ona, 5) Ringling mansion in Sarasota, 6) Circus-related weirdness throughout Sarasota, 7) Pinecraft (aka Amish Riviera) near Sarasota, 8) Haslam's Bookstore in St. Petersburg (haunted by the spirit of Jack Kerouac; he lived nearby late in his life and frequented this store), 9) Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, 10) Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg, 11) Whimzeyland in Safety Harbor

[@GregsVlog]

Heh, I’m 20 minutes from Spook Hill and my church is across the street from it. ;-)

[@brendablystone5115]

Pineapple penthouses, coral castles, lizard lounges, gator getaways, & clown classes, can't beat that for less than eleven minutes! Except I don't recall FL being so dark & cold...um, Jacob, could u please let us out of the cooler before u crash? I'm having fridged "Bewitched" flashbacks. Brr!

[@fauguy23]

Been to Coral Castle before. Going to the Keys? Visit the Vizcaya.

[@natedigs9977]

That’s awesome to see you in Lake Wales! That’s my home town and I used to go to that elementary school you were standing next to. Love the videos!!!

[@lauraodle5816]

Wow. That was a great trip. Intriguing and beautiful Coral Castle! While you were driving, I kept wiping my cell phone off. Where is that spot, I thought.🤔 I realized it was your windshield!🤣🤦‍♀️ duh....

[@TampaJay]

It’s cool to see you in Lake Wales. I’ve spent a lot of time there. Spook hill is always fun

[@daddydons9134]

[@brandonorosco4910]

You gotta stop at Miami! The Philip frost science museum the MiamiHistoryMuseum DX

[@AH-ew6ei]

I think the ghost gator had something to do with empty gatorland? A full fledged riot of gator proportion!

[@telecasterbear]

Dont ride the clutch. Rest well, my friend.

[@bonniekaye]

Awesome video! I love Coral Castle! Safe travels!!

[@BubbaTheViking]

I agree, Jacob-that guy must have been a wizard!

[@rascalgirl171]

You need to stop by Sylacagua, Alabama and check out Gravity Hill. I hope you are enjoying Florida!

[@Diwondermum]

No this ones in the fridge!!! Great video again Jacob!! You excel at this career!! Keep going!!

[@camoboatcatfishing3968]

I hope this doesn't come off wrong but the Coral castle deserved a video of its own with a little more back ground without the tourist traps . Jus sayin .

[@Chevroletman5]

Spook Hill works better when you tilt your Camera .

[@babalon7778]

Looks like the gators took over and busted out, where did they go? Coral Castle is so beautiful, I wonder if the original was even better.

[@mehsmeh1308]

You’re in my hometown when you’re in Coral Castle!!

[@patigiddens1314]

Wow interesting place. Thanks Jacob.

[@BlakeBlackstone]

I just moved from a house that was four blocks from Coral Castle. I've also been to spook hill.

[@SueGirling68]

[@bundangbear]

[@Poeboi]

Oh we have something like Soook Hill in PA called Gravity Hill

[@sithlordshaun_]

Congrats on 100k 👏🏽👏🏽

[@maryc5353]

Best trip. So many goodies.

[@sparrowspearl882]

What lovely music for this video 🥰

[@SMOKYMTNPATRIOT]

The Spook Hill ghost gator was trying to keep you there. They love possum...

[@cherlandry5884]

for spook hill you have to be on the other side of the street. As if you just drove down the hill. Then stop inside the line wheels just up to the line. Then put it neutral, you will go backwards up the hill. That's the correct way.

[@WTJDProductions]

I've heard of ghost dogs and stuff, but that's the first I've heard of ghost alligators. Who knew they were strong enough to push a car? lmao

[@namegoeshere552]

I love this place!

[@KyleeBee]

There’s an ice cream museum in Florida somewhere. I’ve always wanted to go.

[@mr.midnight557]

Your a brave man! Ghost alligators are nothin to mess with!..😋 Great vid!

[@davidhinnant9345]

Well thanks a lot CB!! Now how am I suppose to get to sleep tonight!?

[@clarashoe9504]

Spook Hill..it is the way the road was constructed, the shape.

[@DocDoccus]

"Spook Hill Elementary's mascot is a super spooky ghost!" CASPER?!?! I didn't see Bozo in that clown museum . . glaring omission?

[@lynzholmes2550]

We have a hill like spook hill in Scotland called the electric brae

[@TheMetroPhotographer]

Wish I would have known you were so close to my home. I would have loved to say hi.

[@heatboy6637]

Congrats on 100k subs

[@neilhinkle2462]

Not only did he build the castle but he moved it to the spot it's at now. The guy was also a for hire hitman and a thief.

[@jiffyjim4038]

Congrats,CB,..103k ...🙌🙌🙌🍻🍻🍻

[@jeffstubb6116]

Thanks for going to the coral castle it’s no longer on my bucket list

[@iwasthere1390]

On the way back you should stop in Viczaya in Miami.

[@SuperEnthused]

There’s nothing like going in person.

[@poodlenme]

Looks like tonights in the fridge! Gnite Jacob sleep well!

[@kookiemonster9222]
