SECRET HIDDEN VID!! To anyone and everyone who found~ Glad to have you here.
*Would YOU explore this temple? Let me know down below!*
This place makes me feel like a child again, running around in a maze, will definitely try when I have the chance! Thanks for sharing Norm!
I would definitely explore cause I love these kinds of space...I would just make sure to find the chest containing the dungeon map first!
I definitely would!
YES!
💯 added to the list because I want to see those ranma, shoji, fusama, and mountain views in person 🥰hinoki bath might also be 🤏 of a draw 🙃
The Backrooms of Japan
The Tatami Rooms
I was waiting for him to say that man!
Oh goodness lol
I’m a “just get me outside” person when I’m lost in a building (or Tokyo Station). I’d end up climbing out a window and hoping I don’t hurt myself or get yelled at. 😂
Yeah my first suggestion is: OUT THE WINDOW! too
I half expected him to do that at one point when he was showing is the views outside, haha.
Legend says..that you can still hear Norm wandering through the temple halls looking for his way out 😂😁🤗💝
Definitely adding this place to my bucket list 💝💝💝
😱🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The temple doesn't just look like fun to explore, it also looks like it'd be fun to play hide and seek there lol. Everyone just gets lost!
You should post a complete floorplan/blueprint for the temple with all the little hidden areas, if there is one available. I might try to build a miniature of it for fun.
I did! In the full vid!
This is giving me such liminal space vibes.
Lost in endless empty rooms and hallways.. isn't that a common dream, limbo experience and all? 😅
So for centuries, countless people roamed this place looking for the exit. Respect for how much work people put in to maintain all this so beautifully!
Yay!! More contents on fun temple explore!!🤩
the escape was very real lol
Like a first person videogame level, where you backtrack to make sure you got all the loot. Looks like a fun place to get lost.
Looks like promotional trailer for a new atmospheric exploration game.
I kept expecting you to come across the Japanese equivalent of the Minotaur!🤣
Next time, remember your ball of string!😉
"Man gets exclusive access to stumble around beautiful historical temple"
lol this was a fun one
Plus, you know what to do in a maze, always touch the left or right wall as you walk and never let go, you'll get to the end eventually
What a cool place, would like to get lost in it! The window showing the snowy, cozy village outside just adds to the charm…
So what you're saying is I'll be perpetually lost and living in the temple if I visit 😂 There's one of those fascinating cool patterned trees in the inner garden of Natadera too. Thanks for the BTS speed run through this amazing building. ❤
Wow! This was a nerve wracking and gripping little adventure that kept me on the edge of my seat up until the very end. Thank you Norm for this slightly scary yet exciting run!
An amazing piece of history, that wants to hang onto you for a while. Thanks for showing us around
Note for if exploring expansive buildings; find some lovely ribbon….lots of it. Get used to being attached to said ribbon as you make your way through and hope no one cuts it. Use a fishing rod to reel in when your destination is reached. Repeat as necessary 😂
This would be an amazing adventure to have. Those views though! Oh my, they're breath taking! Especially the mountains. Would definitely get lost here again and again.
This is the best kind of lost!
This is both hilarious but also the stuff of nightmares!
That is such a unique place to stay at and explore Norm, thanks for taking us on the "I think I'm lost?" tour, that was so cool (not cold) just cool. Keep the videos coming mate. TJ
As long as you can find an outlet to charge the camera you can keep us regularly updated from within the temple you now live in forever.
That would be so funny if it Wasn't the bit you thought it was 😂😂😂 Love the adjoining corridors but off in different ways! What an incredible temple ❤
I'm glad you uploaded this segment, made.my morning.
Thank you Norm!
Omg. Cue up the Twilight Zone theme. I had shoes on I would've been out a window in a heartbeat!
I would have found that small room with the chair, sat down, and accepted my fate that I was now a part of the temple 😅
Legend say Norm still wanders the walls of this temple. Sometimes You can even hear him walk
Yay! You got out eventually, haha. I love that you mentioned Spirited Away. The temple hallways definitely have got that same vibe as the bathhouse in the movie. It's so beautiful. I love it, especially those paintings and the view. Mind-blowing to think the temple has been around for 500 years or so.
The fear and confusion is real. Also Norm has a proper handlebar mustache haha
Absolutely, it would be fun exploring.
Lol, was wondering if you were going to get out. That would have driven me nuts!
And to this day, people say you can still see glimpses of an entity they call Norm wandering the halls.😂
😂
Yes, I would explore it; very interesting. Excellent video.
This is fun but also kinda of scary. 😅
@5:05 I have nightmares like that. The only thing that could make it worse is if you suddenly had to go to the bathroom, real bad.
Couldn’t imagine the fear coursing through an assassin trying to get in and get out alive
I love your channels. Been watching for a long time and recently became a Patreon. I’m heading to Japan for 16 days in March. Your videos have shared so many fun places that I plan to explore.
I think he was stock there over 7 minutes. 😂
I love Japan. Their buildings are such fun to get lost in.
This was mega entertaining to watch, watching you go in random directions and not a single person to be seen or heard, that would have creep me the freak out. Also the small room with the small chair made me laugh a lot xD
The video camera was found lying there all dusty like the Paris Catacombs. He was never seen again. :P
OMG I would LOVE LOVE LOVE roaming that place for days!!!!! I could spend a week or more just wandering and mental mapping the place. SO Fun!!!!!!!! I am SO happy to see more...even if it is only just over 7 minutes.
2:47 It was at this point Norm entered a Genjutsu and he is actually still stuck in the temple, sat in that solitary chair while the monks use his positive Qi to help cleanse spirits.
😂
This massive place looks claustrophobic, you are brave Norman!
Almost 7 minutes to get out wow =D could have just jumped out the window, sneaking out like a samurai =) Bless!
Commented the same seconds ago!! Not brave enough to explore huge empty spaces with lots of rooms and not a single soul to ask for directions. 😅
I would have jumped out on one of the windows. The hell with the maze. Preferred to get lost outdoors. Hahaha!!
Watching this and I'm expecting Uma Thurman to come crashing through those shoji at any moment... :)
LOL
What a fun video. Have to add this place to my Japan Bucket List. Love to explore all the different rooms. Imagine exploring that at night...
I absolutely would, looks like fun!! 😂
A-maze-ing, indeed.
Beautiful!
This was oddly entertaining, im still glad that you eventually got out!
Norm when he's trapped in the backrooms - "This is just one tiny room..."
You could set an entire movie in this one Temple. A video game, even. I love it.
Is this where Resident Evil got its inspiration from?
Okay that was really cool! I went to Bible college in an old monastery and I got lost for the first week. lol. Eventually it was easy and so peaceful to find its little nooks and crannies and just sit in the quiet ❤
Nice vid. I would definitely explore, it looks so interesting 🙂
Had a dream/nightmare like that once. I was lost in this massive maze of corridors, some of the walls were glass but I could not see through them.
They clearly made it so confusing on purpose to confuse intruders haha. I would think though if you can keep seeing out-side you can kind of verify which direction your heading in to head towards the entrance side, but funny.
Thank you for the adventures, Norm. I would never see these things without you.
Glad you enjoy them!!
That chair room was very odd... Nothing like mine 🤔
That was be so scary wandering around there in the middle of the night.
Thanks for this exciting video! This really looks very exciting. I hope that during my time in Japan I might also be able to visit a temple where I could stay overnight.
Greetings, GrayFox
really was exciting!!
Glad I managed to get out! haha
This is such a wild video
As someone with a lack of directions, I think I would be stuck there for days. Unless I decided to jump out the window.
I want my future home to be like this temple, but with normal doors, in some places, instead of the sliding ones. I'm a fan of residences, with lots of rooms and space
i get lost all the time... maybe this isn't a place I should stay over. the view from the window in the beginning was awesome!
Need to shoot a version of The Shining there. Excellent location for filming the impossible spaces that Kubrick liked to put in his film.
Hah! Great fun. I literally have extensive dreams wandering around weird buildings with interconnected rooms. This video was exactly like one of my dreams!! Thanks Norm. 💚😅
Btw, love your jacket. Love to know where to get one. 👍😁
this was hilarious with the map of the temple on my second monitor xD
Imagine wandering this in the dark, it would be terrifying! Like a Fatal Frame or Silent Hill game
Awesome video, Thanks.
You bet!
I would probably end up panicking
As my one friend used to say let’s go on a 迷子旅行 😁
Cause that’s what your videos like these always inspire me to do!
You need a GPS just for the temple XD
Didn't realise this was upload a while ago! I would love to explore a place like this anytime!
I think I'd be too tall for a temple stay, I'd be walking out of my vacation like an old man, hunched over😅
I have anxiety and stress watching you try to get out of the temple. Hope you made it out!
This reminds me of this game where you have to find a bathtub in a labyrinth of a house.
The temple is what nightmares are made of, lol. Hope you got out safely minus the curse words.
Myths are you can hear someone running through the rooms and halls of the temple on snowy days :p
This looks so cool! Definitely planning on visiting. Thank you for sharing Norm. ❤
hope you get the chance!!
Thank you~
Eyyy hidden vid 😉
gotta love those hidden vids!
Hello Norm from Canada! Loved the hidden video. I started to feel panicked for you as you kept getting stuck. I'm glad you made it out.
heck yes!! I was kind of hoping for an extra video about yiu exploring that temple 😁
Soooo glad you got out of the space-time loop! Ha ha!
I just finished watching the previous video while enjoying some afternoon tea- what a stunning place! Definitely would love to explore (and also get hopelessly lost :'D)
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm happy to see you're ok❤
I would get lost in this temple in a heartbeat! 😅
Much love from Arizona 💜💜
nice to see another entry on this
I boot up youtube to see you have uploaded exactly 1 minute ago. Perfect timing thank your sir
Hope you enjoyed it!
Haha! You’re funny, Norm! Don’t worry! You’re not alone! It would probably take me the whole day to find my way out in this temple!😂😅
Escape room level 1000
honestly really love this room at 2:47 🤭 i wonder if there's a specific reason for the chair or if they just thought the room looked too lonely otherwise
Lost Norm in entertaining!
lost norm on a time budget haha
Another liminal space to add to the list.
Again would be great to explore ... but imagine if you were the poor person whos job it is to clean it all! "Where did you leave the vacuum cleaner" "eerrrrmmmm" or you have a fleet of roombas who just are constantly broadcasting "we are lost send help"
lol Id love to see a temple full of roombas~
There was a missed opportunity for some scooby doo shenanigans with all the corridors and rooms 😂 This temple amazes me, I’m sure it has even more secrets that have been forgotten over time 💜
Your enthusiasm/confusion/curiosity and slight desperation all at the same time 😅
Good luck trying to find the bathroom back in the day xD
I cant imagine what if i had to find the toilet in the middle of midnight, and its almost 90% reaching limit holding it in. 😂
