⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking NYC State of Emergency : Times Square, Manhattan (May 18, 2020)

[@MannyExploresVlog]

Crazy to see NYC like that.

[@jumpers500]

Manny Explored Even during the swine flu and Ebola outbreaks, NYC was roaring like a lion, but this has bought it to a screeching halt and it'll take a long time to recover from it.

[@choualberto885]

It should stay like that before a reliable vaccine becomes available.

[@moseslaws2828]

Times Sq*

[@whitelily227]

Chou Alberto You first.

[@HayleyBingster]

I low key think they should've just turned all the lights off. Nobody is really there- stores are closed. it's a bit of a waste of $$$. THAT would be really crazy to see!

[@richardpeterson1383]

They should never turn the lights off. It would send a terrible message to the public. It would mean the city has died.

[@HayleyBingster]

Richard Peterson I wouldn’t consider it dead if the lights were shut off, just cocooning. New York can never REALLY die. 😊

[@XFXRyan99QPR]

Companies are still paying to use the boards and the space so have the right to continue to advertise their products.

[@TheAbxgirl]

the lights are on for safety reasons for the ground and for the air i.e helicopter and planes that use the Hudson River as a "Highway" to LaGuardia, Newark and Teterboro for private jets

[@HayleyBingster]

@@TheAbxgirl oh, good to know! Thanks for teaching me something ☺️

[@abrock6215]

New York is finally the city that DOES SLEEP. Not as noisy, crowded or dirty,

[@janicerigsbee4129]

For real! It just doesn't look the same.

[@whitelily227]

I’ve lived here all my life...38 years. Never seen it like this.

[@janicerigsbee4129]

let's pray and hope everything gets back to normal very soon I want to see New York Lively again not dead.

[@ActionKid]

It really is sleeping now in Times Square!

[@mikeadams3977]

This one was near and dear to my wife’s and my heart. We were right there exactly one year ago celebrating our 39th wedding anniversary. We stayed at a hotel on 40th Street I believe (across the street from the Port Authority) and went to the Shubert to see “To Kill a Mockingbird.” It was a terrific visit. Of course there were quite a bit more people back then and lots more traffic. Thanks for helping us remember by walking the exact same streets we did.

[@marinaountoekpo]

I like it like this, it's beautiful, no tourists, few people

[@johnnieperry48]

what up action kid. I ain't never seen nyc quite like that in my life WOW...

[@CityWalks]

🍎 fascinating to see these world famous places with no crowds. Must be very challenging for the smallest of operators and guides. - Henry

[@isabellaBella66]

I love New York...And I live un Unión City (NJ)..But thanks to You....I can walk again around this great city!😄

[@juanus06]

Hace 3 años que voy a NY por 15 o 20 días y ver estas imágenes me provoca mucha tristeza. No puedo creer que no haya gente caminando, que los teatros estén cerrados. Es una película de Ciencia Ficción en la que el Mundo esta actuando. Dios, que pase pronto todo esto...

[@Privatenospying]

The quality is amazing! Very interesting, also comforting in a way to hear music and see the lights of Broadway still on

[@everbornnjackson]

To actually SEE that many people on bike passing thru is amazing

[@WalkRideFly]

You could count the number people in Times Square these days.

[@kyamusichai9329]

Hi Ivebeen seeing almost all your videos. Great work and efforts..Good Going Keep it Up.. Few suggestions for.. 1. When walking a straight street show the stores or buildings on opposite side on ur left or right. 2. When at a corner before crossing the street show the buildings all around by panning up. 3. Cover the moving ads on billboard at times square. This video you have covered the things as i desire..hope you continue doing it same way.

[@J420-x3i]

GREAT VIDEO AK. VERY CLEAR !!!! AWESOME SO SAD SO MANY PLACES CLOSED !!! NYC IS BEAUTIFUL !!! THANK YOU FOR FILMING !!!!👍👏🇺🇸

[@annykim4486]

I miss bustling nyc. I search up your videos to remind myself of what nyc looks like. I hope the city goes back to normal soon. :'(

[@ewuluugochukwu594]

Hello! Newyork Time square. Thanks Actionkid for updates.

[@ezcanor8262]

Makes me wonder how many tourists we had if ends up looking like this?

[@carstens.1844]

Stay strong and healthy. Love NYC work in a Museum 2009-2017 My heart is brocken to see it. best wishes from Germany

[@abrock6215]

The city that finally sleeps.

[@specolishead1]

This quite reminds me Times Square in the 80's on a Sunday afternoon.

[@prinriggins9151]

Great video AC, perfect pace! 👍

[@goodwizard8598]

Thanks so much for these videos. I watch them all.

[@fiddleDdee]

In upstate New York a huge resort on a lake near me just announced they are closing - includes townhomes to rent, restaurant, golf course and lake access - they will be going private selling all the rentals

[@penelopebranker3630]

Yeah, they're all out here in the Hamptons.

crazy rite-the big apple/concrete jungle/city that never sleeps and like a freakin ghost town wow keep up good wk ak

[@judithhinton5784]

I have such a feeling of sadness as I watch a once vibrant part of Manhattan be so empty and quiet. It's so surreal, AK. Let's hope that things will turn around and we'll see smiling faces again in Times Square...

[@yellowhmsconqueror]

Judith Hinton likewise. Its surreal. Only time will bring it back

[@judithhinton5784]

I can't believe you went into Port Authority! YOU ROCK ACTION KID

[@dianestretch5087]

Entertaining, informational, and a little sad.

[@lyndawood3983]

your camera work keeps getting better and better...XXOX

[@jenlarge9036]

They're smart pigeons, to know where the designated activity zone is.

[@ActionKid]

I thought the same thing!

[@hikingwithmarty]

quite quiet, I would say. Btw what is this scene from 'The stand' doing here at 25:35 ? This is rather eerie sight as well, and all these masks, can't help but reminding me of pictures from 1918-1919 and such.

[@sunshine8495]

4:09 you're walking by the live stream of times square I always watch

[@yolinewearth3502]

Finally the city is totally different, clean and quiet

[@wensoriano]

You really are a restless man, an adventure through all the city even though you are exposed to the virus, anyway thanks to share this images ´cuz difficult to visit NY these day from a foreing country like mine I posting from El Salvador, I was in NY last year and of course totally different to what is today, semi-ghost town.

[@coreym162]

The virus is where all the people are and they are inside. Viruses don't just manifest. They need a host. Actionkid is a smart and cautious dude. He's got this.

[@whitelily227]

He’s fine. Stop with the fear and panic.

[@IngaHicks]

Unbelievable!! Never in my LIFE would I ever expect to see Times Sq look like this, except maybe in a movie for a brief moment in a scene, smh :(

[@davidellis5141]

Well it's not New Years Eve ! Things will be bustling again by Mid June. Another Excellent post by Action Kid.

[@rockybarbosa8715]

I hope there aren't as many people, you'll see they'll dirty all up again!

It’s like 5 in the morning or not even that. Never seen it so quiet at TS.

[@b.griffin317]

its spooky. I remember walking TS by baby steps chrismas eve a few years back. whole of TS was as packed as a rush hour 4 train.

[@alive-awake]

Is all that scaffolding just part of the structure or are they renovating? Seems like I see a lot of it in your videos of NYC.

[@michaelgervasio5383]

That (mostly green) scaffolding that covers most of the sidewalks? It's main purpose is to protect pedestrians from falling debris from construction or weak/decaying building facades. The city inspects building facades every five years, leading some property owners to keep scaffolding up to avoid the need and cost of fixing the building every few years.

[@janicerigsbee4129]

This is so eerie seeing Times Square this empty it's like we in the zombie apocalypse!

[@janloraine]

We need the twilight zone music 🎶 while viewing this. Surreal!

[@moneyblue8466]

0:55 is that the building game shakers was in

[@ebrahimsyeed7720]

Wow 🤩 super super nice day

[@starstencahl8985]

Wow, 14:40 looks like a tech demo for a new game engine or graphics card. The lighting, reflections and everything being so empty

Pero da miedo

Um 19 Uhr herrscht dort sonst ein beängstigendes Gedränge, habe ich oft erlebt. Die falsch singende ältere Frau (ab ca. 25:30) habe ich auch oft dort gesehen. Ich hoffe, nächstes Jahr Ende Mai wieder in NYC und auch auf dem Times Square zu sein und die überwältigende Energie dieser Stadt wieder zu verspüren.

[@jamesrizzo6760]

Not even there early Sunday morning it's. Quiet there ever wow that is quiet never seen it like that my entire life very sad for businesses small business is going to take a crushing blow a lot of people going to go out of business it's so sad God Bless America and God bless New York hope everybody stay safe stay healthy

Especially one country in particular!

Very few world leaders. I would say, elected office holders handle a pandemic.

Not just world leaders, the people. There are more general population than government and the people spread it.

Hey Kid! Neat vid, thanks for uploading. Got a question, why’s the flag in Times Square at half mast dude?

[@francesfoley3284]

I did not see any advertisements for Dettol.

[@amandaclark375]

What emergency?

[@letsc2011]

Public schools stopped teaching civics and in depth history in high schools. This shut down has never happened as you say. Correct, not for sars, mars, hongkong flu, the spanish flu, or any other outbreak. This is looking more of a planed Coup than anything. Since there has been such a lack of history study as I mentioned most would not see what is happening, until you wake up and everything looks like this. Comparable to getting knocked out and waking up and everything you know is gone? I sure hope I am wrong.

[@Pause_mania]

That's spooky 😲
