Do you have a PO Box Jay?

I live off U.S. 27 and just about every town off of or near the Highway has a small train based museum. What we saw here shows how much things have changed in 1/12 centuries of Florida's History!

Great video! Whenever my buddies and I would go urban exploring or into the woods we'd strap a camera pointed behind one of us to try and catch if anything (whether it was a person, animal, or paranormal) was following us or just in the background unnoticed. You should try it! You might capture something you never realized was out there with ya!! 😬📹

OMG, you are brave, I would be shaking in my boots. I have a fear of heights. They are the Evils not Elvis I believe.

The "Evils" are a local Hispanic wannabe gang in the old phosphate towns. Nichols, Brewster, Mulberry, Turkey Creek and others. Someday they'll all be developed into sub-divisions and chase the Hispanics out.

The locomotive was cool. 🚂Nice job and looking forward to your next adventure 👍

Awesome vlog Jay! I do enjoy these roadside attraction vlogs.

Mornin Jay!! Love these videos!!

Wow, man, amazing videos from my home State , places that I had never seen before, keep doing videos like those. Thanks for those amazing videos that make me travel with you.

it is always good to know your surroundings while your out and about, very good find. that place looked very sound and intact for something going back to probably 1983.

Hey Jay!Another outstanding video!!! Hope everything's fine!!!

Very cool Jay! Glad to see a successful infiltration; my experience there was short lived... Thanks for sharing; gotta love that decaying industrial! 👍😁

I know right where you’re at! I used to live in Plant City for 15 years. I’ve been by that old plant going into Mulberry many times. That was well over 20 years ago!

Great video. Loved it!

When you go into old abandon industrial building you should wear some kind of safety shoes you could step on anything that could come the bottom of you shoe and might cause issues like infections, etc.just a thought.

Very cool Jay. Kinda scary, gotta admit. I’m sure Cris was beyond worried about you! Lol

I have done work at that facility years ago it was a nightmare to keep running i have worked at every phosphate plant in Florida (retired electrician)

Just wanna give you a heads-up, the name in blue wasn't Elvis. It said Evils. Don't know if anyone else had told you that and I'm too lazy to school through the comments LOL But either way, as always your videos are awesome and this one is included in that awesomeness!! 😁

I would love to explore a place like this

I sure miss old Florida

Tampa Jay I surely do enjoy your roadside attractions and abandoned places series. I haven't watched your Jurassic Park tribute video yet. Reason is, my daughter and I will be at Universal the last week of June and I want to see it fresh before I watch your video. LOL. I'll watch it when I get back. Hopefully you and Cris can plan to come to Universal/Islands during that last week and hopefully we will see yall and say hello. I'll be videoing for my channel while there.

@@TampaJay Update: The tribute store was awesome. Even though I have never seen the Jurassic Park movies, the store was still cool. Especially the kitchen scene. My daughter bought the 30th anniversary black and red water bottle. I bought myself a cool Disney water bottle at World Of Disney. I also rode Velocicoaster for the first time and as much as I hate to say it, it was way too intense for me. I was so overwhelmed by it that when I met up with my daughter ( she didn't ride it), I got emotionally upset and started crying in that Discovery store. I love coasters and even at 64 years old I can still ride them. But that one really was too much for me. However let me say this: I had my sunglasses on and I don't have a strap on them. At some point I had to actually hold my glasses on my head and hold on with one hand. Had I been able to hold on with both hands it probably wouldn't have upset me so much because of the extreme intensity of the ride. But honestly I have to say that I am most assuredly not going to ride it again. I thought Lightning Rod at Dollywood was intense when I rode it. But it is quite mild compared to Velocicoaster. So I may ride Lightning Rod again. LOL! HA HA!

That factory was a little freaky to be walking around in there! Glad to see you took Snake Pliskin along with you for protection! You two make a real dynamic duo!

Fertilizer end product is monoamoniaum phosphate that feeds the world

@atomsmash100

Most is used for the production of fertilizer.

At 23:00 to answer your question, that shed you were at that was filled with water - you're correct that would go down about 30 or so feet and is where they'd unload phosphate rock railcars that would come from mine sites. the conveyor that leads up to the plant would then grind the phosphate (fancy dirt) and mix it with sulfuric acid, creating phosacid which would be supplied to a granular plant (where you noted turbines earlier, those were granulators/dryers) creating what we see as little pebble fertilizer that you'd commonly see in stores. the product produced at these plants would be sold to distributors where they'd dilute it with all other types of nutrients for what we know as fertilizer. Also, as i'm still watching to answer your next question to the cows 'what are you doing out here'. Mosaic still owns several thousand acres in this area, most commonly around the New Wales area. The 'unused' land that has been reclaimed in the past and environmentally restored, is now leased to anything from TECO for solar farms, beekeepers, and cattle farmers.

I worked for an environmental analytical laboratory and we collected water samples I can't remember the name of the company but that trip brought back my working days wow what an adventure please be careful and thank you for sharing so so cool ❤😎 Orlando Florida here🏝

Sorry I'm posting a lot😂... But you're going to where I grew up I grew up on a farm right outside of Nichols down the road from that plant you're talking. That plant actually got shut down for different reasons that the government's trying to hide but when my family and I live there there was radiation that seeped into the the natural spring. Unfortunately while we had the farm we had like 100 acres of land and a farmhouse I'm hoping maybe you can see where I can show you or tell you how to get there and you can see it but as you notice the house is down the bottom of the like a little valley like a valley. I lost both my parents two sisters because of that plant leaking radiation into the water supply into the air. So for twenty years my family drink water polluted from the radiation from the uranium that they found that the government wanted back in the 50s. I have an article from The Wall Street journal that goes into more detail about what happened but basically everything we drank everything we ate when we went swimming anything we did caused that radiation. By doing so I've lost majority of my family I have breast cancer a my oldest brother he has cancer. Mine is in remission he's still getting radiation treatments. Anyway long boring story but just to give you a little background information on that plant and I also wanted to tell you how much I really enjoy you and Chris doing these videos. You guys truly are awesome and I'm so glad you found each other ❤️

This reminds me of the beginning of the Woo back in the day! If those buildings were in Southern California they would be fenced off with No Trespassing signs, cause if not it would be filled with homeless & meth labs. It's Sunday & the Dodgers are at the Ray's Tropicana today hope you are able to enjoy some baseball while bringing us all along. Don't drink the water Jay 😂 water fountain looks a little iffy. Amazing that they buried that, makes you wonder why??? As always thx 4 taking us all along on your adventures

Kool trip. But you made me nervous, no buddy on that trip and no snake gun ?

You didn't mention anything about the two jeep looking cars at the end of those long tunnels. They frightened me!

When you do these videos, I remind myself you edited it so you must have made it home safe!

Used to ride the school bus through there in the early 70s.

my grandpa used to work at that plant in nichols.

i need to fly my drone there love old bandos

If u go to these places, especially s Lakeland/mulberry area, bring a radiation detector. Radon is a serious issue around here in old phosphate mines. Gun shots were from JTAC Ranch. Was a members only shooting range/training area. Going to be missed, was closed down for a future neighborhood being built in adjacent property (might be the one you’re on). It’s just a little further down on the right, closed to public and members after 1/1/2024 though😢

Not much out there now. That was my post office back in the 80s and 90s. Most mines were torn down too bad Conserve wasn't still there for you to explore.

Do you know any in west palm beach or palm beach county ?

Hey Tampa Jay have you and Chris the girl ever visit our Bartow Courthouse? It's supposed to be haunted. Would love to see you guys visit and see..lol

First ( spooky ), 2nd there no snake boots, just sneakers crazy man. You get bit you'll never make it to help.

I learned something new. I always thought a turbine was a jet engine, similar to the one(s) I worked on aboard the cutter I was stationed on in the USCG, or the ones on the underside of the planes that I worked along side of when I worked at JFK. Turns out it's nothing more than a pipe.

Have you been to the Shell Factory in Punta Gorda ? Did you know Punta Gorda was created from a pineapple farmer ? It was a huge pineapple farm in the early 1900s? It's been steadily built up. I hope it hasn't lost all of its charm. I haven't been back in over 15 yrs. But it was really nice and super rural and remote and quiet. We lived 8 miles (of swamp) from a prison- on 22 acres. It was a road of mailboxes. You couldn't see a single house. I have heard it's ridiculous and unrecognizable now. But we loved it's story, of how it came to be a city. There is nothing like a small Florida town. Floral city is still small. The people in charge aim to keep it that way. I love places that are against growth. "Growth" pushes out all the wildlife, which should be criminal ! But the animals have no rights.

All our small towns I live in Jersey look like that all the major manufacturing has moved away to greed

You were by a gun range lol and also there's a old abandoned cemetery with 1800s headstones off of hill grade like half mile from there

my dad work there for 7 years then the R.R movie to tampa on the water

Schweet,You might should have taken a geiger counter with you,phosphate mining has residual land contamination and the waste usually has uranium,thorium,and radium,so I hope you washed down after your exploration?

Not far from there as the crow flies there is a private gun range that is quite sizable, JTAC Ranch.

12:37 looks more like EVILS than “Elvis”. Could be an urban artist who passed away or something.

That’s the thing about abandoned places you really are going at your own risk. Something that you’ve probably learned from your buddy Adam the Woo

I’m thinking the nerves from being in such an enormous structure with massive yet decrepit and completely silent machinery made your brain read that graffiti as Elvis! Realizing it actually read “EVIL” while in a place that makes the Chainsaw Massacre film seem completely plausible would be too much for ANYONE’S mind to process!!!😂😂 Great job on the video!
