TOP 5 MOST DANGEROUS LOCATIONS

[@benjamintaylor-grain9422]

New to your channel, can't get enough of it! Highly interested in this sort of exploration and would love to join you on one of your explores. Keep up the good work, stay safe, and for christ sake, both you and Chris should invest in some toetectors and dust masks 👍🏻

[@General_Confusion]

I think the rule should be that if anyone doesn't feel comfortable in any of these places then you should get out. The simple thing is that hindsight has never saved a life, but acting on an initial gut feeling has saved millions.

[@General_Confusion]

I'm sure it would be a great comfort to Ian, to know that after he has been squashed flat like a pizza from a cave in, that other people will look at his misfortune and say 'Best not go there it doesn't look safe'. Maybe i should rephrase. If you are dead, hindsight will do you little good.

The GamingBoys Did you really take the time to capitalize every word in your comment?

[@mrashleycooper1991]

Your videos are fantastic, keep up the good work.. It's good to see some amazing footage of what the past was like.

[@davidmorris631]

Hello IKS, all the videos are fascinating from you and looking forward to seeing more interesting videos from you. Kind regards David.

[@simonbenton5872]

great video guys. keep up the good work, i realy look forward to your videos. 👍

[@aussiedazvk4djh889]

G'day Ian. I do remember all if these videos mate. Thank you for doing what you and Chris do best.

[@dhphoto71]

great compilation Ian. enjoyed the watch.👍

[@IKS-Exploration]

+dhphoto71 glad you enjoyed:)

[@richardvickers148]

keep up the good exploreing ,i look forward to it every friday :) ,

[@davidwilliams2595]

Love your insight and background info on your explores etc. And yep, before no1 came up, that was the very 1 I'd have thought it should be (up to this point as trying to view everything in chronological ordert) having only recently watched it.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Very glad that you show people this. Doing what you do takes some skill beyond just walking in and rumbling around like a mad dog. I agree totally that some locations should not be revealed as that might lead to unneccesary injuries to people who does not know or care how to do it properly and get out from there safely. Well done.Thanks again for sharing great material and Greetings from Ww2HistoryHunter

[@chapsie547]

These are insane; good on you mate. I've always enjoy'd your videos.

[@2011thekaj]

This is a great video. Thanks again.. cant wait everytime for the next video.. thanks for the risks you take out there.. The only place your vids are going to go from here is out to the whole world cause like i said befor ,, no one does what you do ... The mining guy we do all know lol..... if anything ever happened to you or chris,, we will all be there to support you guys... No matter where in the world we are.. everybody like if you are with me on that!!!!!

[@15Med3]

this is awesome. you can do a top 5 for a lot of categories. favorite, worst, best condition, worst condition etc. keep up the amazing videos and explores. stay safe

[@thomasmccallister4010]

Crazy, man! Thank you for recording these for history.

[@norgeee]

Found your channel this morning, I didn't had any important meetings today, so I watched your stuff until now

[@nathnathn]

u have a co2 meter since your going into old tunnels there could be a buildup of co2

[@aussiedazvk4djh889]

Great video. keep up the good work.

[@wellsgb1957]

Another great video mate, thank you,

[@robwhite32]

I'm curious what safety gear kit do you carry?

[@IKS-Exploration]

water and bananas ;)

[@EvtheNev]

Haha

[@MrRem7600]

So just to confirm, you carry little to no safety gear, make jokes about it when someone genuinely asks, but at the same time make a video warning people about the dangers of such places. You lecture everyone else not to go these places, you won't disclose locations because somehow you delude yourself that you are better than anyone else who acts without any due diligence or responsibility for their own actions.. Got it.

[@jimjam8149]

MrRem7600 you can find them yourself like he did

[@Winterforged]

Have you considered getting an oxygen alarm ?

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Dave Freeman we looked at them but the price put us off lol

[@Winterforged]

Well consider the cost vs. dying cause of bad air. I really enjoy your videos, and these new vlogs are great (maybe use manual focus next time). I'd hate to hear that you were injured or hospitalized because of bad air. I live in Nevada where we have huge numbers of old mine tunnels, and we lose people every year due to toxic air. Keep up the great films, I look forward to your weekly posts.

[@EddieUKNL]

in that case go and buy a canary

[@Winterforged]

Wow! I had no idea they were so expensive in the UK! I just looked on Amazon.

[@hyperion8008]

Very enjoyable video - stay safe.

[@riccioxborrow3061]

Great to watch you Ian

[@riccioxborrow3061]

Thanks

[@mischef18]

Chris has quite an adventurous streak in him bro, he sure pushes you along. Great vid anyway. ATB

[@Brianthehistorynerd]

Some amazing places ugh I was getting nervous just watching them. Nice job Ian.

[@EddieUKNL]

Good video, nice to look back on past adventures I think i would class your trip to Grain tower as a dangerous one. I can't believe Chris went up the viewing tower. The concrete was in such poor condition

[@LeeNottingham]

Nice work....however, I think you should invest in some shoes that are a little more sturdy than those yellow trainers you wear.

[@LeeNottingham]

I get the glow in the dark yellow ....but FOR THE SAKE OF IKS EXPLORATION.....protect those lil tootsies!

[@hyperion8008]

Add a mask to the shopping list if Asbestos is around.

[@phatmanxxxl]

I cringe at them not wearing masks, they'll regret it in a few years.

[@benwright9853]

Yea, shoes ain't gonna matter much when they end up getting smashed like Beatles.

[@YeetxBoi]

ben wright nah a nice pair or work boots with a non slip grip are pretty cheap nowadays and they last way longer than some sneakers and feel better most of the time

[@neilphillips162]

life's dangerous ian and with your exploration it takes it to the edge, , , atb neil. .

awesome video!

[@grimreboot]

This sort of video is good for us new to your channel :)

[@cornishtrekker]

Really interesting all the places you visit! Lots to explore around where I live (Plymouth).

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Mike Smallridge we need to get down that way soon :)

[@cornishtrekker]

IKS Exploration Would like to come out and explore with you guys if you do come down this way. Just finished watching the WW2 fuel bunker video really enjoyed it!

[@su9erhans]

Brilliant again thanks 👍

[@MrTjrea]

Great video, will there be any more top 5s?

[@IKS-Exploration]

+MrTJREA FilmsAndMore I will think of more :) always thinking :)

[@thegrantclan]

Brilliant and entertaining ✊️

[@marksmanlynch5569]

Some very dangerous explores nice video

[@raymondj8768]

i remember all of them be careful buddy great videos as always these are cool just talking

[@Statimtek]

Enjoyed it. Would like to have had more fullscreen video with narration (voice over)I think it would work better. IMHO. That being said, I really enjoy your videos and vlogs.

[@Eastwing74]

Frank's vids are great, hardcore Canadian he is. Cool vlog Ian, felt like I was on vacation.

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Alex R. Canadian oh right cool :)

[@axeweldr]

@@IKS-Exploration Just a heads up, you have the wrong link for Frank's Channel. The one linked is for Exploring Abandoned Mines and Unusual Places.

[@debbiestead]

I like this kind of video, good to have a little change up 😊

[@Lighting_Desk]

If you guys like tunnels, check out the Victoria Tunnels in Ouseburn, Newcastle upon Tyne. They are open to the public for tours, and back in the 1800s was a mining tunnel to transport materials to the river, before being converted to an air raid shelter.

[@LisaSimpson2]

Great top 5 thanks I really enjoyed this video. You've certainly been to some incredible and unique locations. I actually feel really privileged just to get to view them on KZbin. Sir I salute you you and your friends are very brave but I worry about how safe some of these places are, especially when you have such little gear but I do really appreciate you showing us around them. I will just say please always trust your gut instinct because it's pretty much always right. I'd really hate you to get trapped down there or something and no one know where you are so pleeeease be careful. That being said though I love you channel so much. Keep up the great work and happy exploring :-)

[@JohnSmith-pd1fz]

Extremely interesting and more than a littl;e worrying at times! Beats abandoned hotels any day!

[@fergofns]

Great vid, ... I would definitely do all of these hikes given the chance. I do wish you guys would wear boots and gloves, and even face/dust masks sometimes. Going down those steps at the end, ... gloves would have kept your hands protected on them Old rusty railings, or anything you may have to reach out to grab on to. All that aside, I love your vids, and hope they continue for a long time to come.

[@misterspitfire6564]

I totally agree with number 1 - it was the most scary exploration ever! That staircase was insanely dangerous!

[@cortinatrain]

great stuff have any of you stood on nails glass ? boots would be safe but there's nothing safe about were you go lol thanks for taking the risks to show us the history hope you find some more hair raising places to show us all keep safe love your channel 👍

[@williamguinn3142]

I live in the U.S., I love your video's you have so many interesting places to go an see.We have a lot of natural caves here in the Blue ridge mountains.

[@o0MadHouse0o]

I went to the Royal Marine Refuge last night. I can agree the way in is madness, but thos stairs are definitely hard work. Question. What time did you guys head in there? As I'm guessing getting 5 of in, you couldn't have gone in in the day?

[@EvtheNev]

Would love to do this as a hobby. It's super interesting! Amazing to step into these forgotten places with such history. I don't think we really have anything like these in Ireland though unfortunately.

[@m.j.morshead]

Lol frank is the man when it comes to going to the extreme.been a subscriber of his for awhile.

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Mick M his channel is amazing :)

[@jaskawa4852]

that is pretty much Hardcore Exploration. Thanks for Shareing Mate :)

[@thehidden1172]

What's that in the background

[@mayzo7439]

yes quite interesting on the dangers you go into love watching you I'm documenting history how dedicated you are crazy something I've been wanting to do just never had the stones :)

[@mrxd7953]

is that cyder in the back ground in the jugs.. keep up the good work.

[@IKS-Exploration]

Real ale folk, I'll be making a home brew beer making vlog soon :)

[@Seabeagle10]

Be safe out there. Looks very dangerous area. Glad you made it ok.

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Jared House thanks yeah we are always safe as we can be :) thanks for watching

[@karenaudreytodd]

Try exploring old mines in the Western United States. Two I am lucky to have survived are the May Lundy Mine in Lundy Canyon, North of Lee Vining, Ca. and the Silver Canyon Mine in the White Mountains just East of Bishop, Ca. Both are huge with multiple levels and tunnels dating from the 1870's. Also "Zero Adit" on Northwest (opposite side) side of Wheeler Crest from Rock Creek Canyon, which is an old exploratory extension of the old Union Carbide Pine Creek mine. To get an idea of how insanely big Pine Creek Mine is watch this video and realize that in the main Stope (hallow cavity inside the mountain) there is literally enough space to fly a Piper Cub light aircraft. There are ore dump shafts that are thousands of feet deep between the upper and lower levels of the mine. The mine is upside down, the entrance is the lowest point and everything goes up from there. Fascinating and frightening place: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn3QYoaje5V8frc

[@LostMines]

why dont you show the clips longer ???????????????????

[@brianartillery]

Is that American mine site the one with the video of the chains in a mine that are still - save one, which starts to swing of it's own accord, and the guy filming gets the hell out? Man, that's a creepy bit of footage.

[@therealkaystation]

I absolutely love what you guys do! I'm just as fascinated in history, I love just touching old castle walls etc and thinking what life was like for people back then or even the guy who laid the brick work. Got any jobs going? I'd do it for free.

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Daniel Kelly thanks for your support :)

[@therealkaystation]

IKS Exploration no problem, keep up the good work.

[@Kristjan519]

You're crazy , but awesome explorings. :)

[@exileinderby51]

You're a better man than me Ian, you'd never get me in any of them!! But I would reiterate what some others are saying about good safety boots and a quality dust mask.

[@ImStokze]

ive been exploring for over 20 years, telling mature people is okay, but not little twits with a tin of paint,

[@christopher-2000]

the second bunker your showing in this video looks really dangerous

[@cyberjack]

i like exploring as much as anybody but got to stay safe guys

[@dukelikins]

I'm glad ya:ll are being careful

[@user-bs8hz9ft9b]

Try bringing a flag or something when you do explorations and stake it out by your entrance that way people will know at least entrance you took if you do get stuck underground would narrow the search down immensely.

[@frozenoem1]

You can't buy mil surplus, Gore Tex jump boots Ian? Nothing like being egged on into adventures with your mates. Short 10 mile hikes in the northcountry, no supplies, and returning after 3 expletive laden days, eating berries. Boots like Merrell's £145 keep you dry and have grip that lasts for @ least 7700 km before wearing out, that's what I get at least and admit I had to look up WTHeck a km is, US vs UK. They also have mid height support, ankles don't get screwed up as easy.

[@forestf8154]

You guys can get a light that makes black mold glow if you ever come across any

[@WolfrCats]

9:45 I hate how tunnels makes figures its scary

[@kayakyorkshire]

Enjoying your adventures.I just think you need to take some climbing/caving gear with you and limit your risk!

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Glenn Turner thanks for your support:)

[@MrTurbosteve40]

all of them were a bit dodgy ,myself being a mine explorer its the deep water that scares me .the other stuff just gets me more interested in whats beyond ..good videos ...

[@skullduggery1096]

I love your work,but your still as mad as a box of frogs,wonderful stuff.

[@mencot89]

Your beard is the most dangerous thing to bring into these tunnels lol jk nice video good thing you went with a group

[@steveyks8997]

4:38 you can see a pair of eyes staring at him.

[@buffazzkangroo]

Free Game Hacks yo man that Creeped me out

[@Oske.images]

I've had to navigate outdoor rusted steps at night that collapse if you tread on them.. But they were steps leading upwards to a roof. (to get in somewhere.) Had to navigate back down them later though.. :-) Just got to weigh up the chances, use common sense , & be careful..

[@raymondj8768]

no way dude not me man thats a tight fit !!!

[@lawrencekedz]

I should have read some of the comments first. Never realized how many people are phobic about places like this. My fear is heights. If I can't jump off without getting mangled, it's too high!!! Oh yeah, dinosaurs too and maybe lions and tigers, hippos, elephants, crocodiles, hyenas....etc....??

[@nathandean1687]

hand mount for your camare gear is esentail now.

[@sirianstarseed1896]

Been there lately, bunker nr Folkestone???

[@IKS-Exploration]

No not lately folk

[@sirianstarseed1896]

@IKS-Exploration from a vid I've recently seen from last year or 22, bearded explorer? Entrance looked shady as n looked like that wood might give way? Be careful if you decide to brave it?

[@killer1479]

I would love to see more of these videos what is THE most dangerous you have been in ?

[@IKS-Exploration]

+killer1479 Royal Marines deep bunker Chatham

[@Exoamy]

Good video dude. You brewing some more booze in the background there Ian?

[@IKS-Exploration]

I need to make more really but it's so tempting have beer next to you lol

[@PA2OLD]

Are not you afraid of asbestos floating in the air?

[@IKS-Exploration]

+PA2OLD I'm more worried about all the radiation in the air outside of these places lol

[@1blisslife]

IKS Exploration Those rotten stairs at the end are a death wish m8.

[@alfie9876]

Can I join you guys on these explorations ? I'm 6'6 330 lbs and currently taking immune suppressant meds due to recent kidney transplant.

[@metalkid2k11]

Number 1. I've walked that road many times trying to find it and even jumped inside the barracks trying to find it 😂 I did find it in the end and was blown away by entrance was funny tho leaving and getting spotted looking like a rat

[@dearbornerik]

cool ! erik.

[@benwright9853]

All those places should be sealed. Anyone who goes into them is upping their odds of death. Seriously.

[@lynchy751]

first location was ians kitchen with his home brew lol :)

[@peterright1774]

10 out of 10 mate...

[@B3tanTyronne]

If mentally thinking `F*** that` is enjoyable, then yeah the video was great :) Joking aside, thanks for the video as you would not get me into places like that.

[@English.Andy1]

I think maybe invest in climbing gear with harnesses. Don't worry about asbestos fokes it won't cause you problems if you leave it alone

Dope

[@mlg294]

I know where those tones are at I have worked in them

[@Lucait]

Is that kegged beer behind you?

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Lucait yeah folk my home brew :)

[@Lucait]

IKS Exploration cheers! i'm really curious being a brewer myself :)

[@swanseamale47]

Stay safe guys.

[@Sentekuu]

I like your beard 😃

[@oldmanhuppiedos]

Strange that you wear a mask, I see there are many asbestos sheets in the first video. Luckily you survive everything.

[@robertbushell390]

Do I see some cider brewing there 😋

[@IKS-Exploration]

+robert bushell ales in the background lol I have three pressure barrels that need filling lol

[@robertbushell390]

Haha fair play need to for this better weather coming back in now 😃👍

[@davidjeter6042]

This is why they pay you the big bucks. lo

[@nathandean1687]

ok you have been watching the bc mine exploring huh? stop doing that . and just get on with the exploration video.

[@ZameerKhanimo]

hi I'm zameer Khan Pakistan

[@lawrencekedz]

I fail to see any danger for an adult, unless they're claustrophobic. Sorry!

[@IKS-Exploration]

+Lawrence Kedz fair enough mate we are all different:) thanks for the comment :)

[@lawrencekedz]

IKS Exploration Good day my friend, To explore the unknown or places that haven't entered in many years, are very interesting to say the least. Back in the early seventies, some were talking of razing Ellis Island buildings to make room for hi-rises, believe it or not. So, myself and an enterprising friend made plans for a visit before such actions could begin. There were underground tunnels and rooms that were like time capsules from fifty years ago. Coffee urns, typewriters, desks and an assortment of odds and ends that had to be of some interest to historians. No gold or hidden treasures stashed by the immigrants trying to get over on paying duty or taxes or what ever they had to pay. But I found it extremely interesting being in a place that maybe no one else had been for years. Happy hunting in the future, and stay safe.
