I've been going to this museum since the 1970s. That growl sound of the sabre-toothed tiger bust when you put in the quarter instantly took me back about 45 years. I had no idea that a sound could be so deeply rooted in your core memory without being consciously aware of it!
Same! That and the three musk oxen, and the leopard in the tree. There's also a stunning diorama where they even recreated the dust kicked up by a cheetah's paws.
hello jacob, I live in Belgium and my message will perhaps go unnoticed. but I just wanted to tell you that I think your video is really great, you're so natural. It relaxes me to watch the videos after work. continue to do what you love, because it makes us dream :). sorry for my English
Anna May Wong was a very famous, talented, and beautiful actress. Check out the 1932 movie Shanghai Express.
Saw her first time in Douglas Fairbanks' The Thief of Bagdad, so gorgeous!
HEY YOU ALLLLLLLLL. Hope everyone has a good week! Thanks for giving us never ending content! Can't wait to watch 😁😁😁😁😁
Theme parks, museums, road side attractions, walk and talks, and more! Love the balance on your channel which can’t be easy given the daily commitment! Thanks for the great content you always put out!
It definitely is fun 😁
I'm so glad you loved my "home museum"! It was great to see what has changed and what has stayed the same in the 7 or 8 years since I last visited. Also, orcas are my favorite animals, so this was all around an excellent way to start my week!!! I'd love it if you have time to swing by the Denver Zoo before you leave Colorado so I can see the new exhibits there, too, but I understand if you have other places you need to be.
What a great idea to set up rocking chairs ...so welcoming and really makes it easy for our older folks too ...Great job ❤😊
and us younger disabled folks too 😊 I wish all museums did this!
This is a wonderful museum ❤ Thanks, Jacob ❤️
Hands down they have the most beautiful diorama that I ever seen 👏🙌 also thank you Jacob for perfectly putting this video together 🤗 15:06 you got the voice 🤣
It's been fun having Carpetbagger back in the Colorado front range .
I regret not going to this museum when I was in Denver, but to be fair, I didn't know it was there. My highlight was the T-Rex shadow puppet somehow morphing into a Moray eel. Blub blub blub blub,blub blub.😂😂😂
All those little voices bring back such sweet memories of taking my twin boys there monthly
I hope the albino possum doesn’t give you nightmares.😢
I was nervous for a second when you were sitting in that wobbly chair that was funny😂😂😂😂
I was nervous too
@@TheCarpetbagger I bet smile 😊 you did well with it 😊 ❤️
You’re right in my neck of the woods! So glad you got to visit our museum! Haha you’ll have to hit Buc-ees, now that’s its open here!
One of my favorite places to take my daughter! We there once when she was about 3, she saw the mummies and asked "What is that?" I had no idea where to start 😂
I study osteology and bodyworks is just amazing imo. They did the human and skeleton diorama. I'd love to see it in person one day but the pictures I've seen of dynamically positioned skeletons and bodies is so cool!
Orcas are my favorite animal, and I probably would've cried had you not went through the exhibit, so thank you for that one!
I went here for my 14th birthday! Best birthday ever
Most, if not all of the animals in the taxidermy type exhibits are over 100 years old. They are the same ones my grandparents saw when they were children. 🤯
Kerkorian was not released to freedom. He was at end, released in the ocean into inclosed netted area. He died of really bad skin infection caused by living in small tank in filthy condition. Loved the museum. I heard there is new museum in Pittsburgh PA. called Museum of Illusion. Would love to see you go there. Love you and Jenn.
Keiko was never released to freedom. He eventually was released into a special inclosed floating pen in the ocean. Before they could release him, he died from really bad skin infection caused from being in small filthy tank from before. He did get to communicate with wild orcas. But never lived to be let back into the wild. So sad.
Very sad
Keiko was in Newport Oregon for almost 3 years before the 5 year long attempt to released him into the wild in Norway. While in Oregon, he gained 2000 pounds and his skin conditions and other health issues cleared up. His suspected cause of death in Norway was pneumonia.
I love all the places you go to! I've seen so many things I didn't even know existed because of your channel. Thank you!
Yes, When things explode, they break apart. SOME stories they tell. Yes, it was the first time I saw a Blue Carpetbagger Butterfly.
Jacob, You really need a set of those spinning chairs !! ( Frame 28:39 + ) I can just see you & Jenn having a blast. I know she'd be smiling while twirling !
I have a Random Connection to the film advertisement shown @11:35 for the 1977 movie "Orca: the Killer Whale". My great grandfather built much of the set down in Petty Harbor, Newfoundland for the filming of that movie!
That’s pretty fun
A beautiful and astonishing museum 😮
Yay! My dad has a wulfenite specimen he found on display here. Been wanting to go back I love this museum! Many memories.
Hi Jacob 👋 very large and interesting museum! Thank you for showing us. Have a nice day! Say hello to Jen 😊
I used to watch free willy when I was a kid it was one of my favourite films of all time
Fun fact! Back when the artwork was done in all of the taxidermy halls, names were forbidden from being signed onto them.
So, what did they do?
They singed the artworks with hidden gnomes
I really wish I could travel with you cause I really in joy watching you.
I have loved this museum since I was 3
That was a great museum it definitely had a wide variety of exhibits. Love when you go to a museum and you make your own "esum" kind of day! Keep on cruising Carpetbagger safe travels
I was surprised to look over and see you sitting on the red chair in colors, lol I'm the guy who said I've seen your videos when you were about to leave that exhibit I work security there i'm glad you enjoyed your time... I'm sorry you didn't get to see gems and minerals. There are some great pieces displayed in there. You wouldn't believe me if I told you there's two basement levels full of archived items rolling shelves, full anthropology lab... a spider research lab, a geology lab deep freezers holding canisters of preserved film, hidden libraries contained with in the wild halls where the taxidermy animals are and also a zoology lab on the 1st floor... lol the two levels of taxidermy is part of the original building which was built in the early 1900s alot of those Muriels were hand painted by the same artist go back into your video and spot the ones with birds flying in the background those are his... and you didn't even find the hidden elves 😂😂😂
I went there a few times over the years. It’s so cool seeing the place again. The first time I visited in elementary school on a field trip I got a nose bleed.
You should go to the Colorado railroad museum and meet hyce
Wow love watching on CZcams channel
I couldn’t go through there love watching on CZcams
the Gnome hunt, Jacob! you missed out on finding all the Gnomes!! never fails...every time I go see the Mummies (lifelong Coloradoan here), some small child asks me if they're real. its become an inside joke with my friends and I at this point.
Through your travels i have seen a lot of interesting museums. But this one is the absolute top. i could easily spend three full days in there. Thank you Jacob!
Such a cool museum! I grew up going to the NC Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh. I was similarly fascinated with all of the taxidermy, and they had a room where you could actually touch some stuffed birds, bones, fur pelts, etc (they probably still do, I just haven't been in a few years). That skinless human and skeleton climbing display was amazing 😂💀 love to see a good helpful skellie!
Also love the rocking chairs set up in the taxidermy rooms, both for enjoyment and accessibility!! More museums need seating throughout.
You need to find the gnomes in the "Springtime in the Smokies" exhibit, that was my favorite part as a kid.
I love that’s museum their animal diaramas are wonderful! Well done
Those chairs are terrifying 😂🎉
Some of my favorite Mastodon skeletons are at that museum. Full bodies of some very interesting dinosaurs.
Some of my favorite taxidermy animals scenes too.
Houston museum of natural science is a must
37:15 If you look closely at the muscle man, you realize he has no skeleton; his skeleton is the one reaching out for him! It's kinda a commentary on how your skeleton is the "scaffolding" upon which your muscles and tendons depend on for support in order to move at all!
The Rawr and Blub Blub of the hand shadow puppet animals were totally worth the watch.
Thanks Jacob for being you.
Hugs from N.C.❤
I lost a tooth here at this museum when i was a kid on a field trip. Back when the mummy of king Rameses was being hosted.
Awesome video- I love the science museums!
Greetings from a fellow Wisconsinite and museum enthusiast! The little carnivore at the entrance is a Ceratosaurus. Not entirely sure what the sauropod is. Brachiosaurus was the first thing to come to mind, but it’s hard to tell. I’m surprised they didn’t show the necklace that came with the Free Willy movie. I loved the heck out of mine and was incredibly sad when I lost it. I thought that colors exhibit looked familiar! How ironic you should come across it again. The backgrounds on the animal dioramas are wonderfully done. That globe that let you project different things on it was cool and clever.
Good to see Red Fox behaved and didn't call anybody a "big dummy"
And the Red Carpetbagger IN the Red Room.
What a well rounded museum. I'm surprised at how many dioramas they had . Love the dinosaurs. They have always fascinated me.They had some really cool ones and it was interesting to see how they work on the fossils . Great mummy section. Thanks for the tour . Loved this Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
Squashed Penny had a mammoth on it. Mammoths are another 50% larger than an elephant with large curved tusks. Mastodons are about the same size as elephants but hairy with shorter straight tusks.
Orcas are the largest member of the dolphin family, not really a whale
Cool, a bacteria clock. And all that just before breakfast! 😂
Amazing museum with lifelike displays. I could get spend hours looking at the details. Thank You for sharing. What a wonderful trip in CO.
your videos give me such a nostalgic feeling of watching old home movies from when i was a kid 😊 Thankyou
IF you come back to the Tulsa, Oklahoma area go visit the Gilcrease Museum. A Huge collection of Indian artifacts. Remember Before it was named Oklahoma we were simply called The Indian Territories.
Awwwwww so many adorable squirrels! ❤️🐿
Some of those scenes with the taxidermy, wild flowers and plants are the same as when I was a boy in the 1960s when my family would go back to the Denver Museum Of Natural History, (The original name of the museum).
I'm surprised the orca exhibited didn't talked about Jaws with the boat being named Orca.
Spinning chairs: okay, I’m done now. Hey, I’m finished! How about some help here! 😂
The Orca exhibit font reminded me of Crocs. Great video Jacob
In 2010 there was a 4th movie; Free Willy: Escape from Pirate Cove. It featured a young Bindi Irwin.
Thank you for your videos. They have given me peace in very difficult times for me. If you ever end up in Boston, the Harvard Museum of Natural History is impressive.
Ooooh, never been to that one
Wish I would have went here when we were in Denver, we did the Children’s Museum. This looks really cool! Is tomorrow The Shining Tour 😮
Orcas' are NOT whales, they are LARGE dolphins
Those chairs in the dioramas freak me out XD I always feel like I'm going to fall out of them.
I don't think I'll ever be able to see those dioramas and not remember the member-only kid Halloween event they put on a few years back (when my friends and I were still kids) and we made masks, created a cult around the masks, and then went into the dioramas that was set up to be a "haunted house" and pretended to sacrifice my best friend's younger brother before the fire alarm went off (We had nothing to do with it) and everyone had to be evacuated.
Used to go here a ton with friends/family as a kid! So many good memories!
The orca exhibit was really interesting lots of stuff from up here in Victoria, I use to go to Sealand a lot when I was a kid and remember when the handler died in the pen that kept Tilikum. Victoria and Vancouver are cool places to visit next time you’re in the Pacific Northwest.
Glad to see you enjoying Denver and the surrounding area Jacob
Oh, speaking of, MOSH (Memphis Museum of Science and History) aka the Pink Palace is having thru May-Sue The T Rex Experience tour and also thru October 31st the Memphis Zoo is having Dino Park as well, you and even possibly Jenn might be interested in coming thru or stopping in on another road trip.
Good Morning Jacob 🙋🏽. I know that Jennifer is Not with you At the moment, but I'M still going to say Good Morning to her Also ‼️😃👍.
Little Rock Arkansas has a science museum, I once as a teenager. I wonder if it’s changed since I visited in the 80’s they had an electrical exhibit to explain we have a small charge with in us. They also had one the history of optics and glasses, Steven King donated a pair of his glasses now that was 😎
Great museum😊
Carpetbagger shouldn't feel to sad for Stegosaurus. Many times the Meat eating Dinos were only able to take a large bite of muscle flesh off the vegan Stego before it got away.
Anybody else catch at the beginning of the video that snow fell off the roof and almost took out that kid running lol
Keiko was in Newport Oregon for almost 3 years. He gained 2000 pounds and his skin conditions and other health issues cleared up. I got to visit him many times. He was very loved and is extremely missed. His suspected cause of death in Norway was pneumonia.
This was very interesting, thank you so much!
You should check out The Museum of Science and Technology in Syracuse NY!
You really must try to delicious food and drinks at Denver's very own The Crypt, plus they have a pinball machine autographed by Robert Englund then take a walk threw Cheeseman park and say hi to the over 2,000 mixed up bodies buried there.
Morning Jacob ☺️🌞 Happy St Patrick's Day to you and Jenny Penny. I know it was yesterday on the 17th just wanted to let you guys know lol. 😊 I love museums like the one u have on today, thanks again for sharing this. You take care.🤓📸🍀☘️👕
Great video 😮
Anna May Wong was the first Chinese American film actress. She passed away in 1961.
Love this museum ❤
I have been there twice when I traveled to Colorado and I loved the museum. I hope to visit there again soon one day.
Thankyou Jacob for taking g us through this awesome museum it is much bigger than our in Rochester and has a lot more 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤ I always feel like I’m with you when you go on these adventures you really capture the best things in life ❤❤❤❤
Awesome video as always Jacob be safe and warm out there and have fun your are an inspiration to us all and your true fans got your back
The new Buc-ee's in Johnstown CO, about 45 minutes north of Denver is supposed to open Monday 3/18. You should check it out since you guys are so close. Glad to see your CO vlogs. I live here and you teach me about where I live. Thank you!
Had fun thanks Jacob
Used to go here a lot with my family in Denver.
Yesssss museums woooooooooo
❤❤❤ nice video
Fun fact! The zoo is right next door and when an animal passes it is donated to the museum.
It’s a great system
There are also little gnomes hidden all around the museum for you to find!
The quarters you had are the American Women series of quarters. Anna May Wong was and actress and the other lady is Jovita Idar who was a journalist and activist.
Your shadow animals were too funny!
If all of the urine being expelled by humas in real time, it would probably fill an Olympic-sized pool every ten seconds.
Have you checked out the Boston Museum of Science?
They show information about the orca with an impressive display. But they also promote marine world and such. So are they for or against orcas? (Watch "the cove" docu). 😮
Sometimes you don’t have to be “for” or “against”, you just show the facts and trust people to come to their own conclusions
@@TheCarpetbagger let's hope so. Your positive view on things is medicine to me, and your reply is a wish come true! I can die peacefully now (and put in cryo😂). Thnx Jacob❤
