Abandoned High School with Power - Everything Left Behind

[Music] in this night exploration we're venturing inside an abandoned high school that's been closed for only a couple of years [Music] due to declining enrollment the district decided to merge schools as a plan to consolidate and modernize we discovered that not only was the power still on but almost everything was left behind including a cold war era bomb shelter in the basement filled with survival supplies join us as we take a look inside this deserted school [Music] [Music] thanks to harry's for sponsoring a portion of this video harry's is immense personal care brand with an online store that offers a no-frills experience in getting great quality shave products that you can have confidence in at a great price and harry's is constantly trying to improve more with their brand new blades that are even sharper and offer a cleaner shave at the same low price of two dollars each harry sent me these new blades and i was thoroughly impressed with their previous blades but these new ones are a cut above harry supports great causes as well they give one percent of every sale to organizations that promote better mental health for men and veterans and to help support those who need it most right now harry's is donating one million dollars worth of shaving supplies to hospitals across the u.s in addition to shave products harry's also offers a full line of shower products from shampoo face wash lotions and body wash they sent me one of every body wash scent it lathers nicely and smells great my favorite being the fig the razor is only nine dollars and blades are just two dollars a piece however if you go to harry's dot com slash proper people you can get a trial set for just three dollars the theater's in here yeah the switchboard for all the lights is still on i think the um curtains might be motorized yeah i can't mess with the speakers right can't make [ __ ] ton of noise or can we here i want to mess with this tell me if you see anything happen out there ready oh [ __ ] you guys already found the theater [Music] yeah holy [ __ ] that's the lights right there film this over there i'm filming this is crazy [Music] oh there's windows to the front ah it's a setup all right we should try to find the security room and see if the cameras are still rolling oh yeah be careful here because this is the front of the school that faces the street we should probably go back the other way no this is the courtyard oh it's a courtyard okay even the trophy case lights are still going yeah they took all the trophies though yeah should we play it's a lot more trashed than the video we saw of it yeah locker rooms are probably back here this is a pretty nice high school are the clock's still going the clocks are not still going it's crazy this was abandoned like what could have possibly been wrong with this school if they had to abandon it this is honestly kind of nostalgic because although it's not the first abandoned high school we've explored the first band high school that's like similar like reminding me of our high school is more similar to my middle school but um yeah i don't think i've ever even been inside a high school since i was in high school have you that's towards the front i think yeah please what's down here just a staircase there's also a basement oh i saw the pool when we first walked in when we were what's that before we got set up it's back there where we came in at you want to head over there yeah yeah sure and i feel like that area is safer because it's more towards the back it's this pool this way i definitely saw it down where we came in it was all the way back it might be over there no i saw it okay it's probably locked that's probably where the camera's going to do maybe this is like full is down here classrooms don't have a lot in them it's a big room though yeah it was a big school that's for sure there's a ton of flags because every classroom had a flag for the pledge of allegiance oh are we near a band room probably look at all this oh look there's a bunch of musical yeah violins in here you must be let's just file in cases these are all empty oh there's one right here oh the strings are all messed up oh geez yeah there's still some switches here too like network switches they're not on though but yeah no i didn't i'm gonna try one it'll turn on it's already set to on actually is this room is this room 126 i don't know why because the breaker is off for 126. this is 129. breakers off for this whole area what's with the window this is the pool this they have like the same like more gym equipment they're the same gym gate as like our high school did yeah they lock you in here yeah so you can't skip class seems like a fire hazard yeah that's what our school did what the heck okay this is cool we're actually the pool is in the basement this is just an observation area for the pool oh my god this is a big pool room this is a big pool yeah wow there's probably all kinds of stuff in the basement here like a full basin the bricks in the wall here are sound deadening too got these holes in them the echo in here would probably be insane if it wasn't for that of course people were busy throwing crap at the bottom of the pool come back here in another year and the whole pool will probably be full of [ __ ] from around the school i want to head down to the basement so we can see the pool at pool level plus we're pretty safe from being spotted in the basement so we should probably do that next basement and then go up yes okay let's do that oh if this opens a basement is definitely not something our high school had i'm curious if there were any classrooms down here or if it was all just maintenance this looks like a hallway that could have classrooms yeah it does no way what working network equipment a switch is on a switch so there could be internet here somewhere there could be there's no activity on the lines but like that is a server fan going there's computers back here too see if you can plug them in yeah if we could boot these computers up that would be pretty sick i mean we wouldn't be able to log in but there's an outlet down here where it's like kind of janky looking nothing is connected with these computers so you'd have to plug everything in and find outlets for everything i only see one outlet over here so we'll leave these alone this is where the kids would have been gated off from the maintenance area rotc yeah rotc room let's shove them in the basement cadet of the month they took their photos down [Applause] this room's really bright some desks in here join the junior rotc oh one channel off from 69. no there it is cable's not plugged in that's why should we go that far no just leave it on like that and then turn off the lights to this room can you hit the lights it's spooky spooky in here thanks centers there's more in here does this room even have power probably it's a light switch right there it's already set to on i think oh no we need peripherals did you see any peripherals i'm not getting a password in here or if there's like student student students yeah those are the passwords at our school that one's a bad one these are no good no that one's good that one that one's bad because the fan's spinning at full speed constantly we [ __ ] fooled up the whole computer lab [Music] this is fun uh no we don't know the passwords shit's not gonna work well no even if you didn't have passwords you need a domain unless you have a local password which we don't [Music] we're saving power helping them out what's that cafeteria oh cool let's check that out oh yeah good call we got to keep it down in here what we got to keep it down in here because the windows are all busted out oh it's really bright in here lunch line oh somebody set off all those fire extinguishers yeah it's all a fire extinguisher dust yeah it's so white in here cardboard lunch trees someone smashed the glass on the ovens how the fridges are here [Applause] no power to the fridge that was from in here right i don't know this looks like this is the bathroom and a locker room this is for the employee locker room yeah where did that beep come from though i used to smoke detectors oh there's a utility down here i don't know oh i hear it it sounds like right here wait for it wait there's a bunch of them there's different ones it's probably just something i don't know it doesn't matter hold on really [Music] okay so the alarm doesn't work yeah abandoned alarms always say trouble on [Music] them um let's go down to the left here the boiler room it's still going it's [ __ ] hot in here you know when i said i wonder if they'll have heat on and you said no yeah because they can't even heat their active squalls but they can eat there they can eat their appearance school that might be what's creating all the heat yeah i don't think these are on that would be much noisier [Music] that's definitely a motion sensor stay still it's off now move uh it's not a very sensitive motion sensor there it goes that's cool it's like a full paddle room wrestling wrestling yeah yeah that's a big banner on the floor holy crap that's somebody's ear oh [ __ ] that floor is a giant banner upside right looks like something would hang on the side of a building it's probably a billboard yeah oh look we got a um yearbook let's see [Music] this is old swimming we'll see that pool in a second [Music] that's an indoor track what yeah where the [ __ ] is that and the gymnasium we saw did not have this tile wall what year is this from 99 all right let's give you up some more yeah yeah this is the pool oh okay climb through the glass uh no thank you that looks sharp unless i go look and see no we'll just keep finding we'll find another way there's got to be a more main entrance to the pool that's going to go up for something right that goes down wait that could be the boiler room there was a staircase this might be the boiler yeah let's go see though this could be pumps for the pool it is it's pool filters yeah it's all cool stuff yeah this is the pool right here yep can you go all the way around the pool think so it's uh all the pipes oh are those department of civil defense barrels i think they are oh [ __ ] they are this was the fallout shelter i have not seen one of these barrels in this perfect condition and like ever it's a fallout shelter so in case like this something happens all the kids come down here or the neighborhood this must have been built during the cold war and they were worried about nuclear attacks these are all empty maybe they're just from another area and they just store them in here holy [ __ ] yeah i remember we saw one of these barrels that was like mostly destroyed in the cincinnati subway we were excited about that here's like what are they keeping them just clean water potable water it just loops around the pool there's nothing else back here cracker survival all-purpose holy [ __ ] what is in here it's like tins they're full they're [ __ ] full we need to open one of these food crackers and survival tools survival supplies department of the civil defense survival crackers holy [ __ ] are we gonna eat one we have to april 1963 home 89 packing 89 crackers so how does this work you just minimum 1015 crackers how does this work you might need to pry it with something oh this one's open yeah was it crackers take a cracker it looks like they use a knife to get it well these are going to be stale because the seal was broken obviously they're like graham crackers oh my god they're moldy well yeah these are no good anymore there's some more right there well i think they probably could have used other areas of the school they just stored it all in here 1963 crackers wow these crackers also yep imagine just living on water and crackers for god knows how long they probably would have kept other stuff in here too this is just all that's left abandoned there's literally hundreds of these this is a sanitation kit toilet tissue can opener liner napkins can opener yeah this had a can opener in it we're only gonna be able to see a fraction of this place tonight but most of the rooms seem empty so we're just trying to see the major school highlights like the auditorium and whatever else these are science rooms and they have projectors in them really but they're facing right open yeah just play low here i hear more server noises oh i remember these things more switches are on in here the counting things teaching how to count hundreds thousands yeah here they are how many uh there's more back there blinking too yeah there's like quite a bit of networking oh yeah are those beakers or flasks you always get yelled at for calling them oh i don't know no activity on any of these but this one has activity this one too like these could be cameras but probably not it might as well perform there's another floor up above us too these were closed before the school closed it had to have been yeah everything's like stacked and [ __ ] yeah they stopped using the upper floors oh i think this could be auditorium yep bingo oh no it's not going to open is it another projector board thing portable one though okay this is a cool lab but i don't want to turn a light on in here don't turn the light on octagonal workstation desk areas it's cool is that you beeping there's no lights in this hallway it's dark and spooky down here there's just the green light from the exit side this should be a pretty good overview is this the courtyard yeah it's a big place is that a greenhouse on the roof what there's a greenhouse on the roof right there what the [ __ ] oh yeah how the hell do you get over there have a carton on their roof i think we finally found the stairwell that's going to take us to the part of the auditorium that we've been trying to get to yeah this has to be it there we go and there she is nice and there's the control booth folks do you have much money in books there's going up here oh there's nothing left up here yeah this is all empty this is probably where they would have had the old film projectors that they didn't use for a while oh spotlights too stage left and stage [Music] right after seeing the auditorium from the balcony level and it being the middle of the night we decided it was time to head out currently there are no concrete plans for reuse of the building however there's talks of using it for recreation space converting it to residential or even for use by another educational institution [Music] [Music] [Music] you

Seems like a lot of that stuff could have been donated, especially in a city like Baltimore.

[u/r3cents]

Pretty creepy how everything is still there.

[u/mindsnare]

What a colossal waste of money. Disgraceful really.

Steve1989mre would love one of those ration cans...

[u/Fishfisherton]

I'm sure plenty of those expired bomb shelter rations went into the school's cafeteria food
