I imagine it must feel good once you get out side and get that first gulp of fresh air after an explore. I so enjoy these, you have me hooked. Be careful, wear gloves and keep going.

I know it's sad he died alone but it's a lot worse for a old person to be in a nursing home because they lose all their freedom. When I'm old I wish to live free without people controlling my every move. Thank you for the interesting video it looks like at one time it was a cozy little home.

I worked in an aged care facility as a carer, I hope I never end up in one, I would also rather die at home alone. Many people also die alone in aged care homes if their family is not there for them 24 hours a day once the elderly go into palliative care, staff are not able to sit with them due to not enough staff.

to be fair most people don't go into care homes if they are able to live independently - it's a last resort for people with severe physical and/or mental frailty. The days of old people going into homes just to get them 'out of the way' are long gone.

@@margyb7469 Interesting. I assumed care homes were far too expensive (£1000 a week plus in London) for anyone to use them unless they absolutely had no choice.

I was imagining the sounds that house once held. There was probably a family with lots of love and laughter. Imagine an old radio playing while someone was cooking, and someone sitting at the table reading a newspaper, talking about the days events.

People die, their possessions die, and their memories are left to the elements. So sad.

I love to wear Kate Spade, Eileen Fischer, Michael Kors shoes. No "old people's shoes" for me ! I am older than you, Gerald, and we are young and I bet you look great !

Nice explore of " grand dads" place. So cute to see the personal effects of a life well lived. RIP sir. Much appreciation for the tour yall. Great explore.

The item on top of the first piano was actually a portable heater. It had a ceramic cone in the middle that would heat up. Obviously that is busted out. But what a really cool place! So sad it's been left to rot.

Dude, when you die, you are never alone. Only the ones that are left behind thinks that way.

Charming as ever, Dale too. I like how you respect all these abandoned homes and buildings.

I found this explore unspeakably sad. I could feel the old man's loss when he was left alone, quite clearly by the death of his wife before him. The little feminine touches left where they were, after she died. The champagne sent but maybe no-one there to help him drink it. If we were all kinder and more thoughtful, there would be less people whose homes are found in this condition. And guys, there's nothing noteworthy in finding a set of dentures. You may one day be the proud owner of a set, as I am!

My grandpa was a plumber and I remember Grandpa and Dad installing a toilet and I was standing there watching and it was explained to me they put this thing at the base of it (between the floor and the toilet base) called an o-ring made of wax that was said to create a seal that kept the gases from coming up. I wonder if, over time, that wax ring, maybe with the power being out and cold, maybe contracts and thus, the seeping of gas upward and into the room? Just guessing.

Hell yes! He has a cracking dry wit,I like that in a guy. Also he is respectful of where he visits. I loved the line"Grandad shoes" and that his Grandad would wear those sort,how very sweet. Particularly like the camera work and photo stills in this video with the music,and excellent but slightly sad video seeing all the gentleman's belongings just left. Great video though.

I think these videos are so interesting. Like time stood still when the last person in the house left/died. When my parents died (mum last) their house though clean and still with all their stuff in it, felt totally EMPTY. Like the house's soul went with them too.

Those two taps in the kitchen, my grandparent use to have two taps: one was for rainwater to use, the other one was groundwater. So they always had water they could use. Back then that was a privilege. But at my grandparents kitchen the taps were maneged by a handle. You pumped the water up from underneath.

Happy to see you guys are respectful to that gentleman’s home. Thank you.

The vandalism is just so disrespectful to the memory of the Family that made this house a Home. Adam and Dale are very genuine and sincere in their investigating and do not denigrate the site thank goodness. Thanks Guys loved this Explore.💗

The newspaper from the 50’s! There is an a pic of a soldier or something in the front. Maybe that was him!?

Thank you for being so respectful some others are not! How sad if he died there all by him self it’s so interesting to be able to go back in time to see how others lived thank you nice job 👍🏼

like you mentioned... so sad this 90 year old died alone... especially when he has a son James. James should have had his dads home emptied and cleared - like they do out here in Australia. I cant believe just how many homes are left *as is* in the UK, this is just so wrong. good for you guys exploring, but if these people had family - they should clean it up and empty it all.

Your so fortunate to have abandoned houses to explore. Great channel. Thanks for sharing

The Tesco Value labelled stuff gives you a rough dating of when the house was abandoned. Launched in 1993, it was revamped in 2012 to Tesco Everyday Value, which did away with the blue red and white labels of the older Tesco Value. Earlier Tesco Value labels were very plain, and towards the end the labels were modernised and included colour. If you look on the labels they will include a Copyright notice and date, which is a pretty good indication of date, as Tesco tends to change product labelling at least every couple of years.

Judging from the dates on the wall being from the 50s and champagne for Granddads 90th bd, I'd say it was likely abandoned in the late 80s early 90s.

That death smell will penetrate the next apartment and I will be found, too late, but…..my daughters will come, clear out and throw most all away and argue over who gets what!
