Who else loved when he did the 1980/2016 contrast
meh
me
Me
its actually older than the 80s probably 60s or 50s
reminded me of the 'old aperture' in portal 2
this place must have been so beautiful back in the day
Oh yes!
There looks loads of stuff that can be still be smashed up though! Those windows and sinks/toilets. My new wave Urbex smash group would totally trash all of that crap in a few visits. Wish we were in the States or wherever, we would soon bust this!
Scumbag. Stay in YOUR country then. WOW! I bet your parents are proud of the complete pieces of garbage you are.
malthof200 I don't think you would "beat the shit" out of us. Three or four of us are martial arts experts which we use to break up stuff with kicks and the like. It would only be used as self defence, but you would end up in hospital for a long time.
That aside, we don't post threats against people. We are not of low IQ like some meatheads on You Tube who can't write proper English.
We only break up inanimate objects and buildings in fairly well defined conditions.
Look at my Channel too, i just started exploring stuff too :)
I always feel so scared for Josh until I see another person with him in the video.
i thought he's alone at start of the video. Lol
brown b’s gay
You are living the dream, Josh. If my best friend didn't quit exploring with me, I would be out there. Tom
+Decay is headed your way! Its just you now tom?
i wonder where he goes to holloween ?
Don't quit Tom! Me and my husband love watching your videos. Which oddly enough, the first video of your's that we watched of yours was this very same place.
Well, I never would have known. I have not quit; however, I don't go in these places by myself. I need someone I can trust. Tom
What was that resort called and where is it located?
Not trying to get you killed but you should explore the catacombs in paris, that would be sick as!
Doesn't seem like it would be that dangerous would it?
+Nov11jojo not if you know what your doing, it's easy to get lost. And also illegal
Just put a trail of tic tacs down
Im going next year :)
No !!
Not sure if he said, but this is Grossinger's Catskill Resort in Liberty, N.Y. You can find videos of it here on CZcams.
Thank you! These videos provide way better info and history than this video ever did sadly. Josh could have made an amazing video by adding additional history. Glad to be able to go watch videos that do provide that.
Hope Josh will take note to make his videos better. I'd love to keep watching his videos, but with lack of historical knowledge, kind of is a let down.
HollyWould777
He seemed to avoid specifically saying where he was, though he did give a little history. There were enough clues for me to do a quick Google search and find the answer.
thanx for that 👍🏻☺️🙏🏼
I was like uhm very familiar! I made a video here as well, it's the first abandoned video on my channel

"Look at this place , fifty-thousand people used to come here, now it's a ghost town."
Anyone else see the beauty in all the decay?
Kaine 3 COD 4 all day everyday
I just play that map and I remimder this vid
It's so sad to see former beautiful buildings just to be left like this .. yet so interesting at the same time.
leave a like for Josh, he deserve it. 😆
+Andrew Krukemeyer ;)
Andrew Krukemeyer hay
+Exploring With Josh can you explore another hospital if you can find one

Ooopsie accident
My Relatives worked there in the 1970's, They did tell me about the reason it closed. The reason was because of the decline of the people that were coming. There was enough money to support the place for another few more years but the owners decided they should just get it over and done with.
Another reason why it was declining was because of the one or two murders that happened. No one found the killer but there was a woman who died in one of the empty rooms by being stabbed in the neck and wrists were slit, she was in the room that no one had booked when the people came in the found her stuffed under a bed after they could feel a lump and smell something rotting.
Another death was outside by around some bushes ( They did not tell me much about this one. ) Woman was found bashed and died later on.
This hotel was thought to be haunted at some point by the woman who was stabbed in the room.
There were a few accidental deaths though , Someone was pushed down the stairs
Goblin King your pretty cool, that was really interesting to read dude, no lie
Goblin King what is the name of this hotel?
+thailily G
Grossinger's Catskill Resort Hotel in Liberty, N.Y
Goblin King how come there is no mention of these murders anywhere?
I literally just uploaded me exploring this CRAAAAZY place at night, truly messed me up. Anyway thanks Josh for inspiring me to do these types of videos man, keep it up!
:)
love your videos kez!
Kez shut up
Azbo thanks
Nobody cares about your stupid channel so stop passively advertising it and shut the fuck up.
*It's a bummer that you don't provide more history to many of your videos. Locations are cool to see, but it's even more entertaining and exciting when you're able to provide background history. It's kind of a disappointment to watch these without background info.*
i feel u, but i guess the reason why he didnt put up the name of the place plus the full background story, bcs he doesnt want a lot of ppl to find out about the place and ruined it even more especially with the vandals
AN you’re right!👍👍👍👍
He did give out info. He talked about a farmer who couldn’t plant there, so he decided to build a hotel
ive been watching you for 3 years and i cant get enough of you! love you Josh!!!
+DESTRUCTOR101 JAMES thank you!!!
+DESTRUCTOR101 JAMES thank you!!!
Exploring With Josh nice double comments
Exploring With Josh i love you so much
Wow. The pool rooms architecture was gorgeous. It could keep up with modern day architecture
To be honest the wood panels on the ceiling looked like they are in pretty good condition and have a pretty modern style
cedar holds up really well, that's most likely what they were.
Imagine just owning this but fully renovated and as a modern house
This place used to be beautiful. It's terrible what time and neglect can do
Do a vid showing what to bring to go exploring "like a what's in my backpack"
He's done that before in his older vids 😊
Lunchables, GPS, Map, Watur, Mtn Dew, Jordan's (high tops), extra clothes, med kit
XD
yes
good idea
I remember coming to Grossinger's in the early 70s - by that time you could see fewer families and more and more older tourists. It was the inspiration for the resort in Dirty Dancing (along with Brown's Hotel) - but since both were shut down by the time the movie was filmed they actually filmed it in Virginia and North Carolina. Now most of these Catskill resorts are abandoned or gone (Brown's Hotel burned down 4 years ago).
Water charges must have hit this place hard 💦
like me and your mom
GrubbleGrubs how old are you
Thank you for doing these videos. This has always been a passion of mine. Keep showin amazing old places that have been untouched, those are my favorite !!
50000 people use to live here now it's a ghost town
Black Forest Uhh no it's not a ghost town. It's in the Catskills and is quite populated.
XD COD
this isnt Ukraine
ino the swimming pool just reminds me of one part of the mission
ino it's not Chernobyl it just reminds me of it
Does anyone else think about how cool it would be to just take over one of these places and make a house or a business at one of these hotels,
I better get packing!
I know it would be a lot if trouble but it just sounds so fun.
Rocky // Docky yup
I could never be bored with you Josh. Rise Above Exploring Crew. Good explore, even if there was nothing in the places, you're doing good to document them before they get torn down or Vandalised even more. Thank you for the continued explorations.
Josh if your ever in England head to Black Forest me and my friends found an abandoned ww2 bunker. the hallways in there stretched for miles and it hasn't been touched by vandalism because we were the first ones to go there in the last 60 years! Defiantly check it out!
Lol Adapt just went to this place
if they did they would have put each other in each others videos
Yea I know
FaZe Up
I want tropical rain
Adapt Farted, But Nordan Shat
I've been watching you since 123 subs and it's incredible how much you have grown
You mean the world to me josh
Stumbled upon your videos yesterday and now I can't get enough. Lol keep up the great work you and your team are so talented. Greetings from Houston Texas.
doing stuff like this is soooooo on my bucket list. I've watched so many of your videos and I have nothing this awesome around me. just small old houses and stuff like that. Definitely need to step my game up and explore bigger and better things
I love taking pictures of graffiti. I just love photography in general, and exploring. This guy is amazing. I really want to meet him.
I remember in the 80s my grandparents talked about a place they visited years earlier and I'm pretty sure this is it.
Michael Parker ur a liar n attention seeker obviously not true
ALEXIS Pinto I feel sorry for that crippling pessimism you seem to have blindly assuming everyone is lying.
+ALEXIS Pinto lol you have an incredibly small brain to not be able to believe that someone in this world of BILLIONS would happen to have relatives that know about this... read a book and expand your sad mind
Hi Josh great video as always, I really liked how you showed the before and after pics of certain areas. if tou could do that more often that would be really cool. Tnks
Hi! I just found out your channel, Josh, and I can already tell I'll be binge watching! Thanks for your wonderful videos! Have a nice day! ^^
Josh i do worry about you in regards to the asbestos i noticed you have a beard and when i'm working around asbestos it's heavily recommended that i shave the day before so when i wear a mask its completely sealed everywhere. Asbestos is such a small and fine substance and you would be surprised at what it can get through.
+Djanio yes i wear my mask so tight it leaves a mark on my nose. My beard is very thin. Thank you! I feel i should be ok.
A good test to do is block the exhalation check valve and breathe out. If the mask does not inflate a bit when it pressurizes, but blows out somewhere at the perimeter, you have a poor fit / seal. Similarly, if you block both of the filter cartridges with your palms, the mask should collapse, and you should get no air at all when you inhale. always good to do this quick test each time, since the exhalation check valve could fail, and allow unfiltered air in, or facial hair growth does not allow for a proper seal. Stay safe!!
take care with the mold as well. Can enter thru any orifice including eyes, etc and for those sensitized any skin contact can cause a flare. I am extremely sensitized to mold so alas my urban exploration days are over but enjoy living vicariously thru vids like yours. Thanks and stay safe. Youth and health are not to be wasted.
really this is not a good indicator. The only way to make sure that you have a good seal in a mask is to do a qualitative fit test. If you do not, you might think that you have a good seal and it will collapse, but it does not mean that the mask is working correctly.
Pretty sure it has been shown for gas masks it has shown that a beard, at least within limit, does not hurt the seal. A mask like that should be no different.
Just explored an Abandoned Theme Park on my channel! Great video Josh mate! :D
I appreciate that you see the good in these abandoned places. Most people just see the trash, you see it & appreciate what it was & the ideas that were put into it. You & your thoughts go deeper. Your passion is real Josh. I admire it. Thanks for sharing with us, and keep it up!💙
Only recently started watching your videos but hooked already, absolutely love them!!
pretty sure all hotels are at least a million dollars...
1 mil in todays economy or 1 mil in 1914s economy back then 1 mil was like 10 mil for todays economy
Billy Kid most hotels are 20 mil+ my school is 7 mil and it's tiny
Sel Randolph same
jjamesz007 my school is tiny. They're renovating it for 13 mill. They've only made three rooms and that's almost 1 mill.
Isnt this where FaZe Adapt and his friends went to explore too?
iFarrox yeah I was about to comment that
iFarrox yes
yea
i really like how you do before and after pictures. it's so crazy how much things change. i always want to go into abandoned buildings but i'm like the only one of my friends that like doing it. i really enjoy your videos!
I love the way you narrate/talk through these videos it makes it so interesting and its cool to hear your insights
I feel like there is ghost in there but they are kind of nice ghost.
I would turn that into housing for veterans and their families only and give them hope for life
Your altruism is commendable. But it would cost tens of millions just to remove the asbestos and mold then millions more to renovate. Better off just building new.
yeah asbestos is very expensive to remove. thats why larry silverstien destroyed the twin towers and and actually made $4 billion from insurance claim instead of paying billions to remove it all
That place was absolutely gorgeous! The double staircase got me, as well. I instantly thought of the staircase in fairytale balls; like Cinderella. I was also loving the hallways with all the windows. I don't necessarily enjoy windows, I'm always afraid I'll see something looking back at me. However, they were beautiful, nonetheless. Thanks so much for exploring that place!
I've had an obsession for abandoned places for a long time, and I absolutely love your videos.
If you are ever looking for places to explore that are mostly not listed on the internet, contact me. I am big on urbexing and have traveled around the country exploring!
josh i make the s ame kinda vi.ds but in europe
Holland!
cool :)
in nederland?
i just subscribed you.
Sharon RK
nederland belgie frankenrijk overal waar ik kan komen in de buurt thanks :)
Josh and his crew is so lucky !
I can imagine many many years from now
He telling his grandkids about all the adventures her had.
These videos sound incredible!! I'm watching this on my TV with my 5.1 home theater receiver set for PL 2 movie. Voices are coming from where they're standing, front/rear/left/right, it's echoing all over the room! I'm IMPRESSED
If someone reads this dab
dabbed
Kiddo 202 i dabbed without realising my blinds were open so I got some weird looks from my neighbors XD
Kiddo 202 no I'm not a 12 year old desperately trying to hold on to the dying trends :)
Ricky Roaster obviously not as sad as you if you dab
I dab lol
Those graffiti are so ugly, it just ruins everything. It should be banned honestly. And people that do it illegal on buildings get a fine
Jess it is illegal it's vandalism
James Tomlin maybe not beaten up, but they are ruining it and it's so ugly. If you ever visit a temple, you don't want to be seeing lots of bullshit graffiti right
+Exploring With Josh, dude your videos are so amazing!! I wish I could have found you sooner. Some of these are creepy but you're taking us too a whole new world and I thank y'all for that.
Oh my the way, the skates you called roller blades, those are actually roller skates 😂 Might be before your time? They were out years ago, if they have 4 wheels they are roller skates. If only one line down the center, those are rollerblades.
You seem kind of young so I thought I'd let you know 😂
Keep your amazing videos coming, I know I have a lot too catch up on but, I love your personality and how you go about showing us without out removing items like others do. Be very proud of yourself that you can show us so much and enjoy doing it. Just be care and don't get hurt!!
Love ❤️ and hugs 🤗 too all 🙋🏼
I really love your videos and how genuinely excited you get about urban exploring!
i'm so glad you dont put shitty eerie background music in your videos like every other person who make these kind of videos does
I thought you said you were over 71 years old. I was like "seems legit"
I loe your videos and your visible enjoyment. I would love to see you go to a building that is not abandoned and explore it with people there. Like an office or something and just talk as if no one is there. Maybe go to the break room where people are on break and be like "this is probably where they came to drink coffee on their breaks... wow'' and ignore them
haha great vid as always!
Visited this spot a year ago. Truly spectacular to see in person. Nothing I have explored since has lived up to this place. Also, the resort is much more flooded now than when Josh made this video.
FaZe Adapt anyone?
TheGamingLegends fuck yeah I just commented about that he was here a few days ago
Mwah
yeah
Just Commented That Lmao
TheGamingLegends yup
This is giving me serious last of us vibes
y'know, I like that he keeps his videos interesting, but also educational. He's not just goofing off, and respects the places he goes to(not purposely damaging it even further or anything). I really enjoy these vids, keep them coming!
I've discovered YOU! What an artistic style you give in this trek. Terrific editing and interesting camera shots. And one of the best personalities blended with a style that's not dull, ho-hum and silly with immaturity. Thank you.
Welcome ty!!
Legally speaking, do these guys get a permit to explore that place? is there someone maybe a guide with them? seems like a very dangerous place, there's graffiti everywhere, sign that people went there, I mean what if they stumble upon something or someone? just asking.
Nomeno Djinova ofc not lmaooo
What is they encounter a psychotic person living in this kind of place, they'll be f***ed...
Luckily, it haven't happen yet...
There are bums that live in Grossinger's. They hide well from security by going around through dark areas on the property. It's actually a reality you could find a psycho on the land.
Didnt FaZe Adapt come here?
My_Names_Fortune yep
i was wondering the same thing
Yeah, I saw his video too
My_Names_Wild yeah he did
These videos are getting better every time I see them. From since 10 thousand sub to now brilliant Job
I LOVE the fact that you include the history and facts about the location rather than just exploring it, it makes it so much more immersive and nostalgic.
looks like something from 'the last of us'
Josh, where exactly is this? what was the name of the resort? I'd love to look up about it.
I think its like in Northern New York
Grossinger's Catskill Resort in Liberty, N.Y.
Shane Jones www.joe4speed.com/gross1986.htm here are some old pics
could you do more of the "before and after" shots? try take taking them from the same angles as the googled images. I LOVE YOUR VIDS💯💯💗💗
First video I've watched of yours and I already love you / I've subscribed love you Josh!
If there was 100k in a wallet in that pool would you go in the water to pick it up?
would have been interesting to have a lab analyze a sample. Probably quite toxic.
uh, yes... ?
money would've been soaked in toxic[?] water so...nope! and besides that water looks wayyy to brown for my taste
sweethindi how dafuq you gonna fit 100k into a wallet
Canadian Crissy phhhh the money would be worthless and paper mache
Why is it abandoned though
Less people came to the Place so it went out of business eventually, Nobody buyed the Place afterwards so it was simply just left to decay.
Exactly. They should provide background research along with the video and share the history to make the all around quality of the video better.
He did tell about the place in the start of the video?
Who cares. Go there and smash what is left before the demo guys do it for you.
a bunch of places opened up around NYC catering to the highly marginalized jewish community, and as more and more started popping up they had to keep expanding and trying to one up other resorts to get people to continue coming to theirs, and around this time, airfare was becoming cheaper and cheaper for the average american to afford, and so they started going elsewhere, which sent all the resorts into rapid decline, thus forcing them to close. :)
Hey Josh! I would love to see more shots of the exterior of the places you visit.
love it when you give abit of history on the places you explore
How does he know where all the abandon places are?
google you know? ...
ToTheMax some illuminati and anonymous members told him
no, it was the rothschilds
Do some research. You can find the places and you can trash them easily if you plan a little. Join the New wave urbex smash genre!
+heelfan1234 Attention seeker. Grow up you stupid little boy.
anyone got tips on how to find place to go and explore?
Jordon morrissey I was wondering the same thing! I'd like to have a sesh at an abandoned place
lets blaze! i know of an abondoned hospital here by my house in compton california
ALEXIS Pinto Happy New Years
Jordon morrissey research online is how most of his videos are made, suggestions, exploration. Also knowing some old buildings that have possibly been closed, to me, Japan has gnarly abandoned places (:
Nobody:
Beam of light
3:35
i really like ur intro, when u show us the video of the place before. Nice!
Umm josh isn't it not safe to not wear a mask like that cause someone with you wasn't.
Even though his sentence structure is awkward. Anybody should have enough common sense to decipher what he's trying to say.
RyderXF As a native English speaker myself, I too had troubles reading his sentence.
Umm Xbox102 isn't it not difficult to misunderstand this comment because it doesn't lack multiple negatives all strung together not without missing punctuation so it isn't easy to fail to misconstrue its meaning?
Well put!!
I can totally understand
These videos are so good but damn your grammar when you speak is so frustrating. "This is the most disgustingest water I've ever seen"
Yeah his videos are good, but grammar is obviously not his strong point.
MrCrockaG who cares. your just a goof with no talent. now go fym
northhankspin *you're
huh? whu?t
Don't forget "So much pictures..."
Great job;) I watch all of your exploring videos - new and old
Love you!!! you guys are amazing!! I ALWAYS watch your videos josh!! keep doing it :)
How do you NOT get arrested?
dont get caught ;)
ReverendSyn or asks if he can actually do it
The people who own the property are very, VERY strict about not ever allowing people on the premises. I've contacted them before about even using the grounds for filming outside the buildings and they flat out said no in various ways. The only way to get inside Grossinger's now is to break in. Not that it's hard to do since almost all the windows of the buildings are destroyed (easiest entry is on the back side of the Jenny G tower). Security hounds the area, though, when the golf course is open, so you have to be EXTREMELY careful.
Speak up ,,, or get a microphone on you...
Thank you for the hard work you do. More people need to appreciate your art. Be proud of it!
I love you guys.. I wish I could explore with the crew y'all are awesome
I enjoy the videos, but you speak with such illiteracy its hard to watch with the volume up…"this is the most disgustingist water ive ever seen't" its not like im picking just one video, either! Its every video!
how does that make it hard to watch at high volume?
it's not illiteracy, it's called dialect. I found it odd at first but it's how a lot of americans talk in different parts. not illiterate, again. You obviously are illiterate with not knowing what that word means. Has nothing to do with how one speaks.
He dropped out of school early. He has no teacher or professors to correct his English. His vocabulary is very limited to basic high school English. Don't expect too much from him, and then get butt hurt about it. You don't like it, you can always watch other explorers since he's not competent enough to live up to your expectations.
Mer Ault So basically dialect means lacking good vocabulary? English is not my main language.
Please look up the definition of dialect. Some people speak the way they do in America purely because they were raised that way in the area they were born. Same as any other country. Every country has dialects and different accents.
Is English not your first launguage? You use a lot of the words wrong, "disgustingist" isn't a word ..
A lot of people use words that aren't actually words to get their point across, I'm sure he's aware that it's not a word.
Yeah I thought the same thing. He tends to trip over his words quite often and use made up words.
Another amazing location, Josh. Kind of reminds me of some of the locations in the Poconos series Dan Bell was doing a while back.
Regarding the pool... don't think it is 20 feet deep. :) More like 10 to 12 feet deep. Olympic diving wells with 10 meter platforms are usually only 18 feet deep.
The stuff on the ceiling (plus the ceiling) look so prestein... good job wood.
that shot of you on the diving board was sickkkk!!
your dance moves on the diving plank where great xD
This guy is awesome and is very adventurous!, exploring every inch of the world! Wow! He is truly amazing ! I hope to go adventuring like his one day dude!
so cool when there is before footage of these places, but pretty sad as well
"that beam of light tho, *josh's random noises*"😂😂💖
i always get the best screen shots to use as backgrounds when watching josh.
@6:49. - could possibly be a large hall meant for weddings, parties, any kind of celebration. Lots of room for dancing as well as a bar.
This is why I love Josh. He isn't like all the other fake ass explorers where literally every single video seems to have something "go wrong" when really its obviously one of their friends or something scripted. He actually explores cool places and gives the history!
Josh I love watching your videos! You are awesome keep up the good work I'm becoming a fan😜😜😜
Thanks for sharing. I used to live there in 1986-88 after it was closed. My Dad was the managing director of the first company that tried to renovate it(Servico). They failed as did all the others who tried the same.
I started a website about it in 2004 and it's still active today with pictures of how it was before the scumbag vandals got to it.
Even though some of your descriptions are wrong, it's still cool to see it. It's been a while.
I love how you tell the stories behind all these abandonded places
Josh!! Maybe there’s stuff in Alaska to explore! I know where the old army base is and it’s trippy. There’s a shop where you could underground and work on tanks and shit. It’s sooo freakin awesome
