Jacob, you document your adventures so well that I feel like I went with you.
Thanks for all the hard work you do!
"Cheering for Nature"..... Today's winner of the phrase of the day 😄
😆
Loved it
I love how those ponchos barely did anything to protect anybody 😂
My hood just tore off of me 😂
When artist singer Prince died the falls were lit purple for 3 days what a honor that was both sides too ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I've Lived here All my life for 50yrs it never grows Old for me this is the Exact reason why I Love Being in Niagara Falls so much It's A Thing of Wonder and Beauty.
Try the Niagara Jet boats Next then eat at the Silo, try the Silo Special Haystack and Ice cream at our famous Caboose you will Love it Jacob.
Thank you for coming to my side of town I really enjoyed this video
I love Niagara Falls, NY; Lewiston, NY; and Youngstown, NY. As a non-driver, I'm very, very thankful to the Discover Niagara shuttles for transporting us around. On my New York State bucket list is eating at the Silo.
@@gabrielapaulinho1luv Eating at the Silo You will Not be disappointed the Food is So Yummy and you really get a Great view of the Falls eating at the Top of the Silo. Please try Famous Haystack You'll want another one. 😁♥️
Your videos are my therapy, I swear. LOL Keep on Keepin on Carpetbagger!
I got to visit Niagara Falls back in 1986, and riding the boats was one of the coolest parts of the visit, other than getting to experience the tunnels BEHIND the Falls. Have you had a chance to explore those tunnels? They are accessed from the Canadian side.
I admit I bawled like a baby when I saw the falls. I had never seen a waterfall and it was a bucket list time for me. So when we went to New York to visit my husband's family he said we had to swing up to see the falls. I am so glad he did. It was amazing.
Now only one authentic Niagara adventure remains for Carpetbagger to have, to go over the Falls in a Barrel.
😂😂😂
Don't give him any ideas lol
😆😅😂🤣
Through the years my wife and I took our kids to the falls but never went on the horn blower so thanks for taking me on those two boats 🛳️🛟⚓️
Brian from Northeast Ohio 👍👍👍
I went on Maid of the Mist two years ago and still remember it so clearly. The experience of all that water was so powerful!
NIAGARA FALLS! Slowly, I turned...
Step by step, inch by inch…
Yard by yard 😊
Step by step, inch by inch! I actually did this when I was at Niagara Falls. I grew up a 3 stooges fan.
Felt like I was next to you, just amazing! Plus, rainbow! Went on Maid of the Mist when I was little, remember how loud the roar of the water is. The slickers back then were heavier and were reused.
So day you'll find it...the rainbow connection...for lovers, dreamers, and carpetbaggers !!! safe travels...
The United States and Canada's shared treasure- Niagara Falls
🇺🇲🇨🇦
Yes!!!☮️💞
"NIAGRA FALLS!, slowly I turn,......" 😂😂😂
Step by step... Inch by inch...
Step by step, inch by inch. I did this when I went to Niagara Falls recently. I grew up a 3 stooges fan.
I've been "cheering for nature" a bit myself - first the eclipse in Missouri, and now in Hot Springs, Arkansas, which is a lot warmer now than when you attempted to escape the snow & ice during your Choose My Adventure Road Trip.
Now there's an adventure that I need to add to my bucket list! Two Niagara boat rides from two countries in one day! Well done Jacob!
You can just feel the power of the falls it’s a honor and a glory to see and visit each side
I love how you did both sides right after the other. That's awesome lol
Beautiful thanks for showing that never been
Great vid! Reminds me of when Pam and Jim (on The Office) went and got married on the Maid of the Mist ❤️💕
Looks pretty cool, but also very drenching. I hope Niagara means more trips to some of the wax museums up there!
Omg what a great time thank you carpetbagger 😊
Carpetbagger is a legend!
I went behind the falls twice, and been on the Maid of the mist with my grandparents. Love the Falls. Thanks for posting. Brings back memories. Michelle from Omaha
There's 2 pressed penny machines up in the building going towards the hard rock Cafe in the lower level. Loved seeing the Falls up that close again. Safe Travels
I was there in 2004 gosh it’s been along while! What a beautiful trip
That was fun tgat for taking us i always wanted to vistit what a gift be safe
Thank you Jacob that was fantastic 😊
Thankyou Jacob for taking us on these tour boats I have never been on the boats so to see it close and personal through your eyes is awesome 👏 Thankyou ❤❤❤❤❤
I remember when I was a kid in the 70s they didn’t have disposable ponchos. They had thick yellow ones that everyone used. 😊
I went on the Maid of the Mist in the 80s and wore one of those those big blue rubber raincoats they used to have. It cost about 5 bucks to go on the boat. WOW. things have changed.
Hi Jacob 👋 I really love the falls. It is a relaxing place! I probably have been there at least a dozen times. We would go for a long weekend. I remember going with my parents and sister when i was a teenager for the first time. In those days you wore heavy raincoats and boots. So much nicer having the disposable and sanitary. Great video 📹 Have a nice day.
We did that last year! Had so much fun! Niagara Falls are worth the trip. Loved the lights at night on the falls!
That was really cool that you did both sides . The rainbow was beautiful .Niagara falls is awesome. .It has been a while since I have been. Seeing it at night and in winter would be amazing . Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
Oh wow this Is just so wonderful!!!!!. The power of nature amazing you have done a really wonderful job of filming this and both boat's you are spoiling us all.!!! XXX
Yeah, just about! Although, ever since Hornblower moved in, I'd wanted to ride both, to compare them. Who can afford that? Well, some people, but not me. But, Jacob's got me covered! Thanks, man!
really enjoyed the experience through your video thanks for showing us the difference in the 2 boats
Living in Rochester I have had the glorious chance to see the falls in the winter and Summer . I have even been in the Hilton hotel in Canada at the highest room . We would crack the windows and feel the mist was very Glorious both day and night . The light show on the falls is breathtaking ❤❤❤❤
So close to pretty Seneca Falls, NY...place inspired film Its a Wonderful Life. Also start of women's liberation movement. So much to see & do there if looking for something to do next.
That was a cool idea to do both boat rides of the falls. I have been on the Maid of the Mist. I laughed so hard when you were taking off your Maid of the Mist poncho you got photobombed by a guy’s crack when he sat down 🤣
I have always wanted to see the falls it is on my bucket list. I still cannot believe people went over the falls in a barrel crazy!!!! That water color was so pretty. That looked like a great time!!!
Be sure to go to the Cave of the Winds, it gets you up close and personal with the falls, and tickets must be purchased at the Cave of the Winds Plaza on Goat Island.
That was so much fun; drone shot would not be the same :)) thanx J man
That chocolate bar in the gift shop would be pronounced C-ay N-ay D-ay. C-A-N-A-D-A. EH being the stereotypical Canadian word
You beat me to it, can't believe Jacob didn't figure that one out..
@@gc4644 You have to live a little closer to Canada to have been made aware of the speech patterns of Canadians. I'm guessing that's something Jenn would have known, eh?
Re: the chocolate bar. It's the old joke, how do you spell Canada? C, eh? N, eh? D, eh?
This all trip Is so on my bucket list what a wonderful place a true wonder... Glad we have all come along with you.. XXX
You gotta make trip to the Falls in the Winter time, its actually prettier, all the mist creates ice on the surrounding trees in the areas; its also colder around the area of the Falls. The Canadian side has the prettiest winter views (imho) also on winter nights when the falls do their light-shows its spectacular with the colored lights hitting the trees, sky-lines and icy waters, its a must-see in the winter!
If you don’t go on this you’re really missing out! You can get right under the American falls at the end so two attractions for one!! I did the cave of the winds my first time there. Now that I know you can go on the boat and under the American falls with a sweet observation tower yes please every time!!!! I want to go to the Canadian side because I think you can get into the old Hydro plant tunnel now. Sounds epic to get closer to the horseshoe.
I watch u everyday Jacob! U have inspired many trips dt your videos. U dont know what it means to me that u vlog things. I used to be very sick and travel vicariously thru u. Now i watch ure videos and see where I want to go. I havent went half where u have but its on the list. Thank you tons! I cant wait until u do Holiday World near me. I was in St Louis when u were and Paducah Ky right b4 u came. What r the odds.
Thanks Jacob for streaming
Holy, uh...cow! Lookit that subscriber count go up!!
Very cool Jacob! We’ve done the maid of the mist in the past. Be well.
I've been to the falls, and they are truly breathtaking. Video and pictures simply can't do them justice. Been on the Maid of the Misr, but not the Hornblower, and I have a picture of a 13 or 14 year old me in front of the ship's wheel. You used to be able to go behind the falls, at one point you're only ten feet away from a solid wall of water. But as I understand it, you can't do that anymore. Also, I'm glad you brought up the hat. It was a little weird to see you without it. You should never go on an Adventure without your hat.🤠
👆 But don't loose your hat Jacob. 😊
You are too cute with the poncho 😂. I bet Jacob drank a lot of the falls water on the boat 🤣🤣
WOW!!! What a cool experience on the Hornblower in Canada. The Horseshoe Falls are magnificent!!! Love the red poncho!!
Back in the late 80s, both sides were the Maid of the Mist. We rode from the Canadian side. Amazing!
Sir really impressed by the footage with the go pro type camera looked like in a movie
I want to visit but when I stay I want the Superman 2 suite!!!
I would love to visit Niagara falls, but I doubt that I will ever get to visit.
I hate that about plastic bags. Can’t ever open them easily! Jacob, did you know that a person waits in a line , on average, five years out of his life? You maybe even more. I congratulate you ❤
The secret to putting some respect into an uncooperative plastic bag? Lick your fingertips and then rub the edge of the bag between your thumb and your first two fingers. (Of course, this is a bad idea during pandemic time or if you're about to hand the newly-opened bag to someone who is likely to say, "Eww. Yeah, that's ok; I'm good.")
Your out front, all alone, You really Are King of the World !!
Thank you this was great
Thank you.
I'll never be able to go there, so now I've been as close as I can and didn't get wet !!
👍😀
When the wheather gets warmer. You need to go into the cave of the winds usa. Great job!
Buffalo has an awsome history musium.
Niagara Falls! Slowly I turn, and step by step, inch by inch...
The Maid of the Mist was superb!! The rainbow 🌈 was TOTALLY cool. I never saw one that close to the water!!! I bet the Falls lit up at night 🌉 would be phenomenal n with fireworks 🎇 added, unbelievable!!! That's when I would love to see them. I have NEVER in 66 yrs seen the falls!!! Too bad the Crow's Nest was closed, as I KNOW you would have gone up there for SURE!! Wonderful video!!! Over 180 yrs as a roadside attractions must be the record!!! Attaboy, Carpetbagger!!!
We went on The Hornblower a few years back. It was incredible to see the Falls up close.
“Carpetbagger coming to you live … without a hat!”
Good Morning " YA ALL " Jacob..!!
dude next time u need to try behind the falls, that's something very kool, bird kingdom is kool place, not sure if the gf would love it but also kool
awesome boat tours on the falls, I was at Niagara few years ago I want to go again
I've had better luck walking onto the boat on the US side, while friends waited in line for hours on the Canadian side. Great video as always Jake.
Next time try the Cave of the winds! It’s awesome!
If I had to choose which tour to take I would choose Maid of the Mist because there weren't as many people and therefore you have a better view. The view was fine on The Hornblower but you got some great footage on the Maid of the Mist. Maybe they limit how many people are on the boat more so you can see better.
Ever try the whirlpool jet boats, if not try em lol. Maid of the mist is definitely a clasic and fun.
Ooh, and the helicopter tour! One day, Jacob should do that, too!
Amazing vid! I remember seeing Maid Of The Mist in Bruce Almighty and in The Office, been wanting to go visit ever since!
Great expierence to go on both !
I did it once on the mist ! Really exciting !
Absolutely amazing!! Wow thank you for sharing. I have never been. I really need to go!!
While you in upstate New York you should check out the Medina Rail Road museum, it's in an old train station and it's one of the biggest train models I've ever seen, it's in a small town called Medina New York it's on the Erie canal, with a cute down town, I grew up there and was actually just there for the eclipse
Well done Jacob. Magnificent video. Thank you! ❤
I really enjoyed this video, Jacob! The Niagara Falls are absolutely beautiful and magnificent! I wish you safe travels, Jacob.
You had a day of good wet fun ❤
Very cool ship wheel neat history ❤❤❤
I went on the US side when I visited my brother up in Syracuse. It was a great thing to see.
I'm surprised you didn't do Cave of the Winds / Behind the Falls!!!
Front side of water
Looks awesome but I imagine a bit more pleasant on a nice warm summer day!!
That is breathtaking and I wouldn't leave the views are so amazing. Thanks for this Video.
I wonder what the border agents think about how many times you've crossed the border in the last week. You're probably on a watch list by now😄
😅😅😅😅
Oh didn't know you were going back there. Wish you could of rode that Frankenstein roller coaster! Looks cool! Glad you rode the boats though, wanted to see that too!
Good Morning Jacob and Jennifer 🙋🏽. Be careful and safe out there ‼️❤. Even though Jennifer might not be there today, the message still applies to her to be safe and careful wherever she is ❤
I enjoyed this and have never been to Niagra Falls before and never seen a video of the falls quite like this one. Thank you for sharing. I plan to make it there one day and appreciate you showing both sides .
Carpetbagger lookin' like Emperor Palpatine in that poncho
You ever thought of going further afield in Canada maybe visiting more towns etc jacob?
Another great Niagara Falls video! Surprisingly being a resident here I've never been on either of the boats! Something I need to try. Thanks for the video!
Awesome 😎
The Canadian boat you kept referring to as “the hornblower” is actually named “Niagara Thunder”. Hornblower Niagara Cruises is the name of the company that runs the cruises. They have two boats, Niagara Thunder and Niagara Wonder. Just an FYI.
Morning Jacob thanks for sharing this Niagara Falls boat tour, looks awesome, your adventures are more better, Adam is back at Disney again they get boring, i would call it his main attraction lol. Thanks for sharing this Jacob. You take care my friend 🤓📸
Jacob can make even Disney videos fun IMO. 😄
@@loravaloo55 I guess so 😄
That’s awesome, I’d love to go. I think I would bring my own poncho that wasn’t so thin and not very good protection.
Love your Crypto shirt 👚
