Unsettling PA Coal Mine with Rooms 500ft Underground

[@AmazingPennsylvania]

Would you sit in that death chair?... Me, no absolutely not!

[@Joe_HamRadioGuy]

Hell why not what's the worst that could happen besides sitting the ground for a minute or two and some laughter lol 🤣

[@terencepierce2405]

Yes absolutely love the chair and the old phone everything man it's just absolutely amazing

[@ChelseaSierraK.]

No, don't want to break it

[@seanroche2358]

I so want to sit on “it”😊

[@ericcarr1648]

Hell yeah I would!!!

[@Rustledin]

At 16 years of age in 1962 I tried working in a Penna coal mine when safety was not much of an issue for owners. I only lasted 2 days. A scary place which takes people with an iron will.

[@jeffreyknight3884]

Just think guys, many men worked in those mines. It put bread on the family tables. You guys are brave to go down that deep. Thank you for an awesome video.

[@sukitt6499]

Being an Off road enthusiast. I love living in the coal region of PA. Amazing views, and you can be going down a trail you been down hundreds of times. Veir off the path for the first time and find an old mine. The one we found had gas masks and a bunch of books filled with that to do in different disaster situations. Exploring old mines is mind blowing to me 60+ years ago my grand father’s were probably busting their ass in the same mine I’m exploring with my friends.

[@charlescampisijr.8065]

These videos are great. Thanks for sharing your experience. So much history.

[@jimmyjams5]

Man I can't tell you guys enough how these videos make my weekend. I was watching some boxing fights and I throw KZbin on to see this. Appreciate what you guys do. This stuff needs to be documented in history for real. You give us the viewers not only a POV we'll most likely never see, but it's a history lesson to show when you think your job is tough, look what these miners working conditions were. WILD!

[@RobertWoods-g8e]

Holy Crap! That's insane! The sight of the water worries me. At exactly 9:30 in this video, you can hear a creaking sound 😳! Me, myself, I'd be worried about dead air! It's astonishing that all that stuff is still there, untouched! Awesome Video! Thank You I wouldn't have made it to the chair, let alone, sit in it!

[@don63]

That was awesome! The luxury model mine with extra large tunnels, transportation & museum pieces. See ya in part #4. Stsy Safe

[@ericcarr1648]

Freaking badass!!!!!! Your videos just keep getting better, Phil!!!

[@RobertBielsky]

I did a tour in a coal mine in Ashland Pa. It took a special kind of individual to work in those conditions. The greatest generation without a doubt.

[@alisonmary1443]

I was waiting on this and wow it was worth the wait. Awesome! and creep factor through the roof. Thank you so much, but please, please stay safe, that stagnant water freaks me. Bless 💖

[@timtheflyguy]

This is an amazing mine….thank you for sharing this with us!!

[@Malyss]

Thank you to you and your adventurous comrade. Your efforts are appreciated.

[@abossman3861]

Awesome! I really enjoy watching your videos. They're so interesting and informative. Thank you so much for sharing and exploring❤❤

[@Jjudes9665]

Probably the creepiest chair I’ve ever seen, and no I wouldn’t sit in it either!! Roll on part 4. Truly stunning video. Be safe out there.🇬🇧

[@a1uffy]

Yea f that chair. I'm creeped out and I am not even physically there. This whole place screams biology. I believe Roger is right. You can't unsee it 5:50

[@annaleebliss4618]

As always Gentlemen outstanding video. Thanks for taking us through this extraordinarily huge mine. Part 4 Yes! 👍🤙🤘🤜🤛

[@Twisted_Adventures2]

This keeps getting better! You guys hit the jackpot

[@talt9789]

Ty for all that u guys do I love watching what u find can’t wait for part 4 and again stay safe also pack a back up battery if ya have one that place is huge thanks again

[@joanieswanson570]

What an amazing adventure, you two! Phil; this is the craziest mine maze yet. And…the eye brow has spoken; stay out, stay safe. In your case, it’s go in, stay safe. Thank you both. Be careful, take care.

[@robertstevens9656]

Watching your videos is like dropping orange-blotter acid!!!! Unreal! Outstanding finds!!

[@jaxflfreebird]

Great Video. I shared another video from this series with my cousin who is in his 70's. He wanted to see more. So he got this one two. Now we have seen at least two of three from this series. It is AWESOME!!!

[@lorrigraboske7406]

This Explor part 3 was so awesome, I had to watch It twice, The hell- sickle, the coal carts, the colors of the mine, the water, the tracks, the chair and suspense! Everything about it is phenomenal. Can't wait for part 4!

[@oxskirra]

Very cool. so much to seee. Love the longer vids…be safe

[@tomwilliams8675]

New subscriber! These are unbelievable. I've worked in salt mines 2400 feet underground, but these coal mines are a nightmare. They go everywhere. You should try to research the mine shaft drawings. Looking forward to part 4. Syracuse NY 🤝🤝🇺🇸

[@RonaldFeller-r5h]

👷🏼‍♂️🧔fantastic Video, the Mine so big , wow..⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐📽️ 👍🏼👍🏽

[@jefffuller6683]

I worked in the underground coal mines for years,42" clearance up to 10' clearance. Thanks for having videos that bring back memories, some good ones and some not so good.

[@inthearea63]

That explore was totally out of this world. Standing by for part 4. 👍

[@ChairFoldersUnited]

This channel is great. New viewer! Keep it up!

[@rickwhitson2804]

I swear it's like entering another world. Love this stuff 😀

[@stephenboon7129]

I'm in Australia and can guarantee you won't find anything like this mine left here. I spent so long paused on the upturned cart, that when you spotted the others on the track I almost had a heart attack haha. Those ore carts would need to be going back to the late 1880_1890's surely. I don't think the Gramby style ore carts was used until the early 1900's. Thankyou for sharing these beauties.

[@fleshbag7754]

Thank you so much for sharing this Huge place with us!

[@KellyOShea6366]

It's absolutely fabulous.. ❤️☘️

[@horsterner7378]

Nice video. Hope to be seeing more places from the 1800s and before though:)

[@JimWhitmore]

50 years ago I did a logistic plan for a storm tunnel explorations you've done, but with 4 buddies. THEY DID IT WITHOUT ME! But followed my plan. I did tell one about your stuff, because I'm amazed at what you get to see. Not sure I could do some of that stuff. But wouldn't complain if given the chance!

[@terencepierce2405]

Brother I just want to let you know that I really enjoy your videos definitely a lot better when you got somebody with you it's just absolutely amazing I would love to do that unfortunately here in Florida I don't think there is anything that

[@northeastfisherman3277]

Dude this was absolutely insane!! I can not wait for part 4!

[@raymondhoagland4976]

My initials at the start wasn't even born yet ! What a mine it goes on and on like the song 🎶 ! The rails coal carts and artifacts left behind awesome stuff guys ! They built some nice walls , ghosts from mines past sitting in that chair ! Awesome walk through, thank you and stay safe ! Part four nice 👊

[@davemoyer505]

Man, if those tunnels could talk! Those men were manly men that worked down there. Coal miners and loggers were tough dudes. Cool video. Lots of those tunnels under Pa. 👍🇺🇸❤️

[@williamwintemberg]

I'm just thinking. This mine is big and the dates say it was worked during WW2. This mine most likely supplied much coal that fed the industrial war effort. A piece of forgotten history along with the people that worked it. Nice job guys!

[@gregl2459]

Amazing episode fellas🔥🍻

[@65twiggy]

This has been an amazing mine. Can't wait for part 4!!

[@brettlinsell4519]

You should take a good camera down for still shots up some of those caves they would make one of a kind wall canvas's no one else would capture those shots for sure I definitely buy one if they were in your merch..love ya hard work ❤

[@CuriositiesCaptured]

Heck yeah!

[@Yvonne.49]

I'm a 74 yrs. Young lady in Michigan and il hooked on your channel. But question...explain gob wall? And what is the yellow orange muck? I think of the miners who spent their lives down there! Tough men!! You guys make me nervous in some of the mines with cracked ceilings. No claustrophobia there!!! God bless!!!

[@577buttfan]

The gob wall is waste Rock stacked up to support the roof where the coal is removed and the orange color is acid mine drainage.

[@joesmith-es1zy]

A gob wall is just a wall of rocks and mortar that are used to seal up a room or a space that they're no longer using or that is being used for long-term storage of equipment. The muck on the floor is probably a mixture of water, possibly chemicals and iron that is leaching from the stone and all the metal that is corroding down there.

[@Yvonne.49]

@joesmith-es1zy well thank you Joe Smith! Happy 🎁 Christmas!!

[@joesmith-es1zy]

@@Yvonne.49 Merry Christmas to you too.

[@Justagirlthatlovestheforest]

The orange and red colors are amazing as well. Is that iron staining? Awesome video guys!

[@littleoldlady1863]

Hi I have been watching 👀 your new and old show you really do a great job ok

[@CuriositiesCaptured]

Famously First! Can we make this one go viral? It’s in your 🙌 Like, Share, Subscribe…And Let’s Go!🎉

[@drewgrob9791]

lets keep in on the dl cause if msha or state theyll definitely be tryin to close these mines up to cover their butts lol

[@CuriositiesCaptured]

⁠@@drewgrob9791 🤫

[@gerardchapman8384]

Loved it , thank you.

[@marinamartinez6886]

Another amazing exploration and NO I would not sit in that chair. 👍👍👍

[@garyfryer7649]

Amazing place. Totally huge and interesting. Don't know how you guys find your way back out. I would definitely sit in that chair 😊

[@markFLH]

On the turned over cart you can see dampening springs in the hitch setup. Interesting.

[@577buttfan]

Pretty cool. I'll have to check that out. I saw something under there that almost looked like torsion bars

[@scottdunn8550]

Bring on Part 4... 👏👏👍

[@David-u5x]

If only mines can talk excellent video as always 👍👍👍 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 💪💪💪

[@lanceu9134]

Amazing place thanks for sharing

[@exxosuk]

Wow awesome stuff!!

[@DirtyDovi]

9:02 That coal-cart is such a killer find! Seeing that it's a certain distance off to the right of the tracks... They might have just had a few guys tip it Once onto it's side, and then tip Twice to get it up side down - Think Flipping Your Bike - to work on it's chain.. *This makes it a whole lot easier to service things like axles / bearings / wheels / etc.

[@vincentbelfire2873]

Thanks! I always love going into caves and mines would be cool too. Wish I could explore something like in person. But will enjoy the videos

[@THISISBEAR]

OMG Part 4?! Can't wait!!!🇨🇦

[@BriarBeats]

God Bless You Guys In Jesus Name, love your commentary & channel ❤

[@BoomStuff556]

Wow, that place is a labyrinth of tunnels! And I'd name the stalactites "Hell Sickles"

[@scpittman5769]

Another awesome should bring sprit in one of your next mine trips

Let’s Go 🤘

[@AudaciousAmber]

Yay...new episode 🤜🤛 I have a question being I thought it was dangerous to disturb stagnant water like that that it would let up harmful gases of some kind. is that not true or only in certain situations cuz I see you just slosh right through stuff.

[@AmazingPennsylvania]

@AudaciousAmber Yes it could be dangerous. In the part 1 video, me and Justin were the first to walk through that flood tunnel in decades. We kept smelling a rotten egg smell, which is hydrogen sulfide. H2S can be deadly in considerated amounts in places without circulation. Fortunately wind was blasting through the tunnel and dispersing it quickly.

[@SavageWhiteBread]

Imagine the equipment hiding at the very bottom of every mine where the mine pool is... That stuff was so deep nobody wanted to bring it back out... There could be anything underwater down there... Little locomotives nobody's ever seen!!... Or going to see again. 😔

[@Emtbtoday]

If there was a description of hell this tunnel would be it! That's crazy

[@Surge_LaChance]

My mother's side were PA coal miners, thanks for showing me around. 😎👍

[@heathermiller9094]

No, I'm good just looking at the chair! What made me rewind was the face on the beam. About 11:15 on the right side on the floor. Maybe I just need sleep😂

[@AquaPeet]

You might exaggerate your enthousiasm a bit in the narration for the viewers, but if I were down there hearing you, it would only add to my own excitement! And once in a while a big grin from ear to ear, man you seem like an awesome friend to be doing this with :D

[@davidfooce1890]

The "bridge" is an overcast . It is for directing air over an entry without loss of pressure .

[@BadMagick29]

Just found your channel and so far I love the content, just wish your videos with several parts would share the same title and then which volume it is. So hard finding the next video to watch.

[@shanepetit]

Another great video. I was looking forward to it. How far down do you think you were?

[@DDExplores]

SUPER DUPER FINDS !!! Love it !

[@franzgeil422]

I would definitely sit in the chair, but alas, I can not. I don't have the cojones to go down in the mine that deep 😂

[@FG-vb5es]

DUDEEEEE!!!!!! WHAT!!!! LOL!!!!! The 💺!! Ya need a mine chair emoji!!! Lol Awesome mine.

[@AudaciousAmber]

I'm going to have to find out where I put the pin on my maps but a rake has been spotted in the southern part of Pennsylvania.

[@fleshbag7754]

A what?

[@jordankirkham1657]

That's an impressive mine. Those stalactites are amazing!

[@saffycatamos]

No, I would not sit on that chair ! This mine is freaking unbelievable. Bring on Part 4 !!

[@feathercatcher]

When you hear the words "Whoa!!! Where does this go"!!!? It's going to be interesting. 😂😊

[@richki.24]

these adventures are so awesome ...

[@donnasilver940]

I,d sit in that chair.This was a cool video.And no spiders.

[@BlueJaysManInT.O.]

Do You Guys Ever Meet Any Beings ( human or otherwise ) When You Have Gone Into These Mines ? Thanks, Dave

[@AmazingPennsylvania]

@BlueJaysManInT.O. If I do it will absolutely be included in a video lol

[@BlueJaysManInT.O.]

They probably are more likely to live in Cave Networks. I have read about them Bigfoot, Reptillian's, ETs etc.

[@brettlinsell4519]

Overnight camp in one of those would be cool to see with a bit of ghost hunting

[@Dan-n-Butters]

Don't have to be at nite even in the day it's nite

[@BrianGilkey-o8t]

Wooooooo! I wish I were there 😄😄😄

[@DennisCaffey]

Easily one your best explorations. Seems like one could spend a month or two trying to find all the paths/connections/stuff....Take care and be safe.

[@franktokash5410]

That was sick!❤

[@ShelleyPohl-eu5lt]

Kill the torches let us see just how pitch black it is😂 such a good explore

[@stephendada8163]

How on earth do you guys find your way out ? And don't get lost ?😮

[@garyfryer7649]

That's what I want to know 🤣

[@megzdubv2950]

Freakin part 3!!! YES 🙌

[@Kai0nTheMoon]

I was trying to read that sign at 4:30. It's difficult with the blur to make-out the stencil font. it says something like: *illegible* stop- -lls slack off 1)....*illegible* --llk-hoist slow........ 2) *illegible* halls?balls?slack off slow ..... 3) *illegible* full head work to stay alive

[@hanscakestealer8546]

Imagine trying to find people in todays world to work these coal mines, our grandparents were hardy people

[@RePotHead]

Hardly humans

[@Reapz9696]

True, should start sending people back there to get that hardiness back😂

[@daddyanonymous]

I would. Be more fun

[@Bee-fr7zk]

We still mostly do here in pa

[@KellyOShea6366]

What type of minerals are seeping down? Does anyone know by the color? Interesting...

[@joshuanorris1915]

It looks like it is probably iron bacteria.

[@fleshbag7754]

I don't know, but i feel like somebody out there would really value some samples from these difficult to access spaces.

[@michaelvoorhees2891]

incredible!!

[@hunter-o7y]

I wont say where this is for obvious reasons. My Grandfather worked here and got black lung. It operated from the early 1900's to 1936 I believe. Then reopened during the war for the anthracite coal, which went straight to the steel mills for the war effort. It did close in the 1950's because it was to expensive to keep mining it. There is still plenty of good coal down there just to expensive to remove. A wealthy family in the area bought all the above ground buildings after it closed for the scrap and repurpose value.

[@BeingRefined]

My grandpa worked in coal mines in KY is this what it was like? 😢

[@futureelvis]

Amazing finds once again!! 😮😮😮

[@David.Colvin]

You can do 10 vids of this mine, Get through the HOLE thing?

[@BALLzak2323]

Do you think the section with the track ties against the wall might be because they used the track somewhere else in the mine?

[@AmazingPennsylvania]

@BALLzak2323 that's a very good theory!

[@whirlofbliss5925]

Thank you !WOW! They were "mining" an old world building . A ruin. #meltology #meltrix #meltedbricks rock'd

[@waynekoepke8128]

wow best mine yet but how in the hell did you find your way back out no i would not sit in the chair good job be safe

[@ltgray2780]

Awesome mine. From the dates, the operation most likely really ramped up during WWII. Possibly?

[@carllawrence1844]

Too bad you guys couldn’t do tours, I would love to go with you guys on an adventure.
