Exploring With Josh so is that ur next spot?
Exploring With Josh what's up
Maybe a collab??? :)
try one-upping this
Some historic footage for sure!
Bright Sun Films I watched your video on this and watched this one
That's the man of the hour!
Bright Sun Films I saw your video in my feed watched it now I'm here watching his full footage!
I'm here from bright sun 👏
Arron Phillips here from Bright Sun as well!
When you break into a closed Disney area and record some videos, but you aren't happy with the quality, so you break back in a few days later and record with better stuff.
Lol FIRST COMMENT WOOOOOO
@@ederpena2734 😐
@@ederpena2734 Goku le gana
To all the people thinking he's going to be sad about being banned, I am certain he thought about this before going to the Island. His main passion seems to be urban exploring (and is really great at it from the videos he's posted) so I doubt he gives a shit if Disney bans him. Amazing footage, Matt! Please continue posting more like this.
kbros9698 my only one critic is thst showed us up closer the paper work and looked to see if anything Disney related was left hidden ie the figures etc people say it was shit because of seeing ghost some say peadophilla island and kids killed on it
If he does get banned he can just head over to six flags! THERE! Problem solved
kbros9698 how can Disney ban him?
Nejsem tvuj tata! You aren't allow in the park it means it happened to visc vlog after she went to river country it happened to Adam the woo so yeah just search it
@@barryfromeastenders7032 what the fuck are you on about Barry? You're a fuckin loon
HOW DOES THIS VIDEO NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS AND HOW IS THIS NOT A VIRAL THING I MEAN ITS DISCOVERY ISLAND HOW IS EVERYONE NOT FREAKING OUT ABOUT THIS
Lots of people don’t know about it, and lots of people aren’t insane Disney fans, though a lot of people are, there’s always that group that isn’t
Its probably because Disney would see it and make him pay a fine or have jailtime
I’m freaking out! lol
MELANIE'S LITTLE STRAWBERRY 35 he will not pay a fine! He’s probably gonna get banned cuz he explored the island AND your not supposed to be on the island.
BECAUSE NO ONE FUCKING KNOWS ABOUT IT IM *COLLAPSING* !!!!!
Holy shit, what an incredible milestone for urban exploration! This place was like the Atlantis of the urban exploration community, all we had before this was a blog post and some pictures, now here we are with an hour of footage, and in broad daylight no less! RESPECT!
I couldn't agree more. There is just one other place I wish someone would of had the balls and got live video of:
photorecon.net/aerojet/
Too late now, the place has been properly sealed off now
Holy hell you actually made it to the island. You actually freaking did it
Boat
or hes just rayleigh from one piece and swam to the island lmao
He’s Goku from dragonball and flew over
Rocket. He hovered over the island and jumped out onto the pathways. The rocket then crashed into the lake.
Ship
This stuff is just so interesting to me, like its so weird that you can see that once way back in time, family's went there and it was crowded with people and now its just... an island with all the structure still there, but just nothing
me too its weird that we are like this theres really people out there that could careless idk how this shit is cool seeing stuff from that long ago frozen in time how could people not care about this??
I'm downloading this to keep as a back-up, in case anything happens to this video. This is incredible. This will go down in Disney history, that they abandoned this place for almost 2 decades.
Also, if anyone wants to increase the creepy factor, play Silent Hill - Promise (Reprise) over the video.
FilmToaster disney had multiple abandoned places. River country was closed due to deadly brain eating parasites native to the water in river country.. three kids died and it still took 4 years to close down
actually, River Country wasn't really closed for that, it was closed because of Disney's other 2 Water Parks (Blizzard Beach and I forgot the other) and also it was to small.
R.I.P.
River Country and Discovery Island
Timothy Robinshaw No, river country closed because of small capacity and competition with typhoon lagoon and blizzard beach. For the record, only one kid died from the amoeba in the water, but two children DROWNED.
@@timothyrobishaw124 also only one child died to the brain eating parasite. Which is actually common in all fresh water lakes in Florida, not just Disney's.
The fact that I'm watching this two years after it was posted is insane. I knew the island was real but I thought the exploration was just a creepypasta and didn't know the footage was actually on CZcams. This is just incredible still till this day.
Same! Its very creepy. I thought it was a myth until i started hunting for footage of it. Like wow. Im very intrigued but id never go to a place like this. Im too much of a baby lol.
So many videos talking about this place on youtube with tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of views, yet not one of them has any actual footage from the island as it is now! This is awesome, my hat is off to you guys for making it onto the island. I cant believe this only has 977 views!
THANK YOU SO MUCH this is my dream come true. You will get a million views easy over the next few months for how rare this is. I'm going to spread this video like crazy. I'm happy that you made this video as long as possible and that you didn't speed through like your friend suggested, i'm also glad you took as much time examining each item in each room as possible as I enjoyed reading those Disney papers everywhere. You're the hero we need! Cannot thank you enough for the rare and extensive video.
Are you the guy posting it all over Reddit?
mike rotch You caught me!
Der_Aussenseiter?
mike rotch Yes! Never thought I'd see my Reddit username on here! I admit I'm a tad bit over enthusiastic about it as I've been waiting so long for this footage to come out haha.
Yup I know the feeling, I to have been waiting for footage of this place !! Awesome vid
Man this is historic!! First and only footage of abandoned discovery island you're a legend
Not true but first video other people who came took pictures
is it really disney ? could be anywhere
@@brain8484 Yes, it's really Disney. Right in the middle of Bay Lake.
@@brycephil4668 do you know the difference between footage and photos?
@@DunkinDonutGoesFast the last group who went did technically take video. Only a few seconds worth, and it was in the middle of the night so you can't really see much, but it was technically video
Amazingly cool as this is, Disney's gotta be fucking livid. This is the first time there's been actual footage inside the abandoned island that I'm aware of. Holy shit, still suspended in disbelief. Never thought I'd see the day.
theres more vids of people being there
Robert Setter there goes the new film
I'm pretty sure disney let this video stay up so people would stop going to the island.. disney has eyes everywhere and if they didn't want a video up.. it wouldn't be posted.
I feel like a velociraptor is just gonna be around the corner at any moment......"Clever girl..."
Gray Disney fans might not like the universal reference 😂
Finally somebody made it there
I can't believe you got there. I've been hoping for years someone like The Proper People would eventually do this, but even they didn't wanna "deal with the hassle of getting there". I gave up hope of ever going myself, or finding someone on here brave enough to do it. Thought that blogger who went there in 2009 and took pics was the most we were ever gonna see out of this place. How the hell did you do this? In broad day light no less. Holy fuck man, much respect. And thanks for the footage.
Robert Setter I always wanted to go myself. I wanted to do this and be the first to upload a video but just didn’t have the equipment or a group that wanted to go. But I still haven’t given up yet. I will go! Somehow lol
Légeñdàry __ holla at me yo. I’m tryna go and smoke a blunt there. lol.
Fantastic to finally have some good recent footage of the island after so long. The papers, calander and white board. Sure they're very simple glances back in time, but they're personal and human.
Thanks for making the journey and videoing it for us to see! Reminded me a bit of some of the bits in Jurassic Park Trespasser, just without the dinosaur of course.
It's weird how everything has been frozen in time basically
It’s kinda like a tragedy and everyone left
Fallout: Discovery Island
Look like Jurassic Park
*look's
Use correct grammar please.
Sloth55Chunk sure dose well shut down Jurassic park
Sloth55Chunk omg it does!
Sloth55Chunk that's exactly what I was thinking!
Sloth55Chunk I was thinking this the whole time
should have probably taken some time to read the paper work on the desks.
Captian Nemo the whole time watching this I felt the same way! I wish I could of jumped in there and just read everything and documented it all on camera
Yah maybe they could have found out why they abandoned it
I would of. You never know but just taking 2 mins and taking a couple still shots might of gotten rid of all the crazy crap they come up with for closings and such. That aside, you went above and beyond on this matt. Great Job!
OwenPlays they abandoned it because there was a dangerous bacteria in the water
@@quintarin5120 oh shut up already. There's no such thing.
You are a legend man how did you get into these disney places
1. Without getting caught during
2. After how did you not get caught
3. Bro. HOW DID YOU NOT GET CAUGHT they've been arresting almost everone who trys there are hardly any full successful attempts bravo man you need like a medal or award or something
Timothy Robishaw They used a raft so nobody actually heard them go to the island.
I wonder if anyone that signed that door will see this
When I 1st glanced at 41:38 it looked like a giant spider was living on the island 😂
Violetemo16 now thats not itsy bitsy lol
damn, ur hot!
These dudes seem scared as hell 😂😂😂 I would be too
Legend has it that the mascots have been coming to life and attack anyone.
Such an amazing video! I love the hiking through the forest and finding everything on discovery island that once was to see how it hasn't been touched in decades!
This is like an asmr exploration in history kinda video. I love it. Especially how calming his breathing is throughout the whole thing. Like, idk why but his breathing is just really calming and relaxing? I almost fell asleep but when he moved to another location, I couldn't because I was too intrigued on what was going on. Haha, love it!!!
I saw this on Bright Sun today, this is sick. Good job guys. Subscribed.
I dont no how Chris is up in there with shorts on let alone socks
and sandals!!!! OOOOoooo helllll nooo!!! lmao!!
lmao at first i was lied to matt told me there was this party on a island
Lmfaooo
48:11 - why is no one talking about how creepy this part is... the park is supposed to be abandon why would there be fresh shrimp... i'd leave right there and then.
Their is a hunting camera up against the wall labeled "Disney Pest Control #18 " we obliviously walked by it multiple times. I wonder how many cameras we missed!
So they put in fresh shrimp for pest control? I don't get it.
They are taking photos of whoever is eating the shrimp to document what kind of wildlife is there.
nopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnopnonpnopnopnopnopnop
SO MUCH NOPE
Fortunately they didn't eat the shrimp.
chris is my spirit animal
this is literally my favorite comment lmao
I just came here from watching a video about disney urban exploring and congrats on being able to film all these places that we have never been able to step foot in.
Oh my goodness, you two are literally going to become legends! History in the making
I’m so obsessed with abandoned and old Disney things and this video is definitely one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a REALLY long time
I know you’ll never tell but I’ll never get over being curious on how the heck you got there and how Disney has reacted to you having been there and posted these videos it’s so crazy cool and blows my mind. I’m so glad you got to go and show people what it turned into. I can’t get over how cool this is, great job.
Holy Jesus Christ man, you did it. You actually did it. Giving congrats to you to making it to the island! 👏
They should make this into a haunted island that's open from sundown to sunrise. Or like a post apocalyptic island after Y2K.
Or they could make a movie called "Discovery Island" and just base it off of that.
This perfectly positioned island shouldn't go to waste.
rock432 you know how much money that would make if it was an airsoft field?
I had that same thought. I don't think Disney would ever go for it, though.
rock432 Considering that all of the building and such are 18 or so years old, imagine how many kids or adults would climb on it and would end up falling down. Plus there's a lot more tat could happen, yes it would be a nice idea, but Disney would be kinda screwed lol
I'm Gay - I don't think kids or adults would be climbing on the buildings for the same reason that it doesn't happen in any other park--it would be supervised lol.
Actually (sorry if I sound presumptuous I’ve done a fuckton of research on this) Disney and the state of Florida have declared this land a natural habitat and are conserving the land as much as possible so thats why it’s going unused and untouched.
Amazing video, it's kinda weird this was posted recently, I had no idea about shit like this, being someone who is obsessed with abandoned places.
I was obsessed with discovery island, I would search for footage every so often and found nothing for the longest time. This time I searched, I found this video from a week ago, AND it's unedited and long so we see everything, I couldn't ask for anything more perfect. So happy right now.
That December 1999 calendar makes it feel like this is what the word would be like if Y2K actually happened!😱
You’re an absolute mad lad. How did you even get to the island?
Anyways, There’s a mildly famous creepypasta I read as a kid about this place, and I also read the news of kids dying of amoebas trying to swim there. So seeing that someone was able to make it there , despite the “dangers”, AND disney’s all-seeing eyes, AND recorded it, fulfills a part of me that I forgot existed.
About the photo negative mickey costume?
The amoebas incident was in River Country
Someone should put a working minimap of the island on this video in a Corner or something make it kinda transparent. It would be cool to see where they are on the island in real time
I'm surprised Disney doesn't have security over this island 24/7 if they don't want anyone going onto it, especially cast members. The fact that it isn't secured (or not secured very well) makes me feel like they really don't care if people go on it or not. So why would a cast member be terminated on the spot for wandering around an island they don't have secured? also, why would they just all this junk there? it's so odd to me
I find that odd to and why wouldn't they just clean all up get rid thing instead leave it there make no sense at all
That newly opened shrimp pack truly intrigues me the most out of this video, (other than the fact that the building are still intact) because I want to know who put it there and why. As they said the shrimp was newly opened and not there the day before which mean someone else put it there. I don't think Matt or Chris put it there because they both seemed genuinely disturbed by the shrimp being found, and I doubt that a bird carried a totally new opened package of shrimp all the way to the island because it would've eaten it. So does that mean that people may have been going to the island for a while now and HAVEN'T been documenting/recording it? If it is just a random person who went to the island here are a few questions I have about that; how many times/how long has he been going to the island? Why did he leave the shrimp? Was it a trap for a bird? Why did he not document/record it? Did he know of the scarcity of documentation/footage of the island? Was it just a Disney employee? Was the person on the island with them the whole time and does he live there? and finally, is he the only person who has been to the island but hasn't been known about and how many others explored this island AND what other odd things have they done on this island?
we noticed a hunting camera labeled "Disney pest control" pushed up against the wall aimed at the now empty container of shrimp . its scary to think me and Chris obliviously walked right in front of this camera multiple times on two separate days
It seems that Disney happens to hiring for pest control. A couple of the requirements are:
Capture and/or trap nuisance wildlife as needed following established departmental guidelines, including snakes, raccoons, alligators, etc.
Diagnose existing pest issues and potential pest issues via routine inspections in a timely manner
I would guess that they don't want the island overrun with nuisance animals so they put out the food to see what eats it. It may be easier to simply treat for issues now then have a large population grow and have to get rid of it later if they decide to do anything with the island.
Or they are planning something for the island and they want to see what may be there that they have to treat for. I'd imagine that they would come back and check to see if the food is gone. If so they would then check the camera to see what ate it. Perhaps if the food is still there when they check they may erase whatever card is in the camera. There may even be a slight chance if they see someone walking around they may just think it another member of pest control.
But that's just my guess.
Would give this 1 million likes if I could. Definitely a very historic moment. First ever recorded video evidence of the mysterious Discovery Island!! Awesome awesome video!! Gonna make sure I share your videos on all my social media platforms!! Keep it up man!!
This was GREAT!! I admire you for doing this. So many people's questions have been answered with this video probably. I just wish you would've showed the signs more so we could read them.
I like how he gives his full name before trespassing on private property owned by one of the largest corporations in the history of the world. This guy's going places!
He got banned from Disney parks lol
AWESOME! Thank you for posting this. I've been curious about the Island since Jake Williams did an Abandoned episode of this park!
One of the best exploring videos, long and everything got looked at, thanks guys!!
It is funny if you pull up an old map of discovery island at one point in the video you can start figuring out where you are on the island.
Anyone notice the warning signs on the fencing at 14:10 saying be aware of snakes and crocs no swimming. Most these were installed since that child died last year so it makes you wonder why they bothered to fit them here. maybe its not so abandoned.
This is what I came here to see someone say. Those signs were installed as a result of the death and as this isn't supposed To be a guest accessible area it's weird seeing them here and also proof that Disney DOES visit the island.
that was a while ago its been ages since someone been on the island even imagineers and cast members would get fired and banned for a while if they enter
the way they just left everything there to rot is creepy
Man this is amazing. Youre really making dreams come true because of how this has been a crazy pipe dream for people everywhere. The way you shot the vid makes me feel like I was there. I feel like Im exploring a dungeon in an Elder Scrolls game lol. Perfection. Thanks a lot brother!
Amazing video! I have been waiting for footage from Discovery Island for many years, I have been so obsessed - great effort bud :) Although, at 52:58 I'd have stayed in those metallic buildings a little longer and rumaged through the junk as the actual 'welcome to discovery island' sign is in there
Mattsonswa: risks getting caught by Disney security to capture footage of discovery island and hits less than 200k views after 2 years
Pewdiepie: plays random video game and hits 1m views over a few days
Yes you tube is totally rigged
Well I mean pewds was on CZcams fairly longer than him soooo
One has more subscribers than the other. I would be concerned if pewdiepie gets 200k views especially with that many subs. And it's possible that most people, kids especially don't know about this island.
This brings back the old memories. Thank you.
oh my god you literally answered all of my questions and actually just making it to the park itself is scary and dangerous. ur brave!!
Dude you're awesome. I remember a couple years ago the only footage I could find of this place anytime recently were a couple of pictures taken late at night. This beats that by a mile. I was curious what this place actually looked like after all this time aside from all the rumor bullshit floating around.
"Yo ass gon fall right through, keep playing" luckily, his ass did not fall right through.
This is my favorite all time favorite exploration video. 😊
i'd be terrified the whole time. god bless you my man
Never forget.............deep within the woods..........deeper than you can imagine.................Mickey Mouse is watching you
Seeing all this stuff like papers and crap make me wonder even more what happened and why they left the island so fast
New subscriber 😀 I think it's awesome to see HD footage of the actual island ! Great video
Holy Crap
It must be so cool to find all of these slightly creepy and old items from this amazing place!
You know you a legend now right?
How to get banned from Disney 101
Fuck off pls
@@n0kt0h45 Could you fuck off first?

Cheers to you for this! Amazing.
Thank you for making this video this has answered many questions for me this is dope!
You know it is all fun an games till you see Photo negative Mickey. Just saying.🙃
*shudders*
Chris doesn’t seem thrilled to be there- omg I would love to take his place- what a dream to explore this place!!!
Nice find and great video. Was a lot of fun to watxh
How does something this cool not have more views.
thanks for sharing this man!
Damn. It's like the ruins of Jurassic Park.
I went here as a child of about 12 years old, with my parents, GP's, sister and brother, back about 1978 or so, I think. We stayed at Fort Wilderness in a camper and tent. This place was one my grand father in his seventies was very fond of for the aviary but even as children we immediately recognized a tourist trap and couldn't wait to just be done with it and go back to Disney World proper. IIRC there were animal food feed dispensers everywhere that you put change in to get food to feed the animals. The little snack shops were just exorbitantly priced for some mixed fruit stuff. All of the wood handrails were coated back then, maybe shellac or polyurethane? I almost hate to say this, but somebody needs to, it was over hyped and was a real let down. The little rivers did have some huge KOI or goldfish in them though. I guess when you grow up going to Lion Country Safari as your zoo a little mini zoo is just, meh. And I suppose that having grown up in Florida with most of that tropical foliage it just did seem too planned and fake. So many of the bird cages were so small, as were other animal cages. :(
I also hate that Disney had to stop 70,000 Leagues Under the Sea because it was not handicapped accessible. I am in a wheelchair and would never dream of stopping the able bodied from that experience. It was truly wonderful.
Thank you for doing this. Lot's of memories. My GPa loved Space Mountain. :) :)
Oh! And Disney is removing the "wenches" from Pirates of the Caribbean! daggum politically correct people and somebody is always offended at something.
Oh, and they have to be maintaining that place at least ocassionally or there would be so much from the palm trees dropping fronds that nobody could get through there. JMO
I guess maybe what I am trying to say is that as a Floridian, having done this once, we never did it again, no matter how many times we went to Disney World. It was a "one and done" type thing unless we had visitors with us.
Wow man. Thank you so much for doing this!
Seeing the place with the abandoned cages and the wooden buildings gives me Jurassic Park vibes. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a raptor prowling around warily following anyone who dares to explore the island or a pteranodon nest on the roof of one of the buildings, the bones of fish marking its territory.
MattSonswa if you make another video about Discovery Island, could you record the ship that was on the island?, and record some parts of the beach?.
I think you're talking about River Country. What's still left is by Fort Wilderness not on the same island
Nope both.
Tommy Vercetti I know, I can't believe Rockstar, and I know that Johnny, Terry, and Clay are still alive. At least you and other people know about this, because everybody else just says this ''Hey I thought that you were dead'' as a joke and ''Didn't Trevor kill you'' also as a joke and finally ''No your dead''. I mean Rockstar could bring back Johnny, Ashley, DeSean, Angus, Terry, Clay and maybe Jim, and Jason back into GTA 5 Online Biker DLC part 2, and hopefully they can get their revenge on Trisha Philips and finally kill him. Also maybe if they could make Johnny and Ashley parent models for The Online Protagonist then many people would love this idea. Anyway, thank you for understanding.
You can't really film the beach part boats go on either side of the island and will dock to go get you if they see you or your raft
I’m late to the party, but this is INCREDIBLE. I do have a question! Why didn’t you go through the files in the office or rummage through that storage area with all the stuff on the floor? You could’ve found some AWESOME stuff!
Wow nature took this place back thanks for the awesome video
Neat video! I have stayed at Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness in the cabins...always wondered about that place. Kinda creepy cool.
Liked seeing the barred owl take flight.
I was there when it was opprerational, crazy how fast things go back nature,, it's cool
Wow! So cool to see what it looks like in 2017. The last few times we've taken a boat near there, there have been sooooo many vultures on/around Discovery Island that I'm a little surprised they didn't chase you out!
Amazing footage !!, I'm down here on holiday at the moment and have been going to magic kingdom and I saw the island and wondered what was on it!, you've got balls to do this!!, keep up the good work! You've got a new sub! :)
So.. did you see photonegative Mickey?
23jcrosby12 and it's also in the creepypasta, Abandoned by Disney.
Just when I thought there wouldn't be any cringey comments about this creepypasta/game.
Sussettey1 it's not a game lmao
Brayden Charles actually it is lol
S t o p
2:24 Security Camera, either deactivated (probably) or you just got filmed.
ThatDreamfinderGuy Begs the question, Did they just cut off power to the island , Or just the lightning system, If so he probably was filmed
I think they cut power, but who knows? I didn't see anything electrical activated while he was filming and things are falling apart there so...
ThatDreamfinderGuy If it is inactive ( Most likely) I'm sure they will add some sort of security system onto the island once they find this video ( Assuming they haven't found it yet)
Whatever that camera-looking thing was.....it likely hasn't worked in at least 15 years. As for actual working security on the island, who knows?...
No way they got filmed that camera is really really old plus the lense looked dirty as hell
New subscriber! Excellent footage!!!
Wow, I don't know how you managed to enter this abandoned Disney park but I wanted to see the secrets it hides. And it's a shame to see that many animals were abandoned in this place. Greetings from Spain!!
I want to say thank you for showing me on what Discovery Island look like and what the island been abandoned for so long. It's my dream come true. I always have a dream to go and discover what Discovery Island look like. I wonder how did you and your friend got here on the island?

54:01 A wooden ladder, 50 Years old..... Hmmmmm Seems legit to climb....

Bamboo can last a very, very long time.
That's metal...
No biggie, it's firmly attached to those rotting trees/poles. Nice view though.
@@doesntsleep2044 ikr
Can’t believe you actually made it over there! Awesome video!
Love getting a Disneyland ad before this video
So did Disney try and come after you? They are about as vicious as the Church of Scientology when it comes to things like this.
Scientology is no church, it's a cult...
Eily Bergin , all religions are a cult.
River County and this??? You're the Real MVP
Legendary explore 🐐
Checking out your site now
Couldn't stop watching this fascinating bit of exploration, but I'm still shaking my head wondering why anyone would commit an illegal act, film it, clearly identify themselves therein, and then upload it for the world to see. I do hope Disney is forgiving because people are loving this footage...I did. And one more thing, Mickey, if you're reading this, please consider giving these two adventurous fellows a get out of jail free card on this one. Thanks!
I wonder how it looks after Irma.
be careful that you meet negative photo Mickey
Man this is awesome, wish I could see it in person. I would leave no box, bag, sign, or paper unturned, everything would thoroughly looked through lol
