  • On June 20th, 1853, West Virginia became the 35th state in The United States. 148 years later, I was born in West Virginia. I’m proud of my state, and I see it get talked down a lot. We do have our problems, but this video is a celebration of our culture, history, conspiracies, and paranormal activity. In the West Virginia iceberg, I cover everything from the history behind Country Roads, the mystery and evolution of the Mothman, several unique ghost towns, the celebrities hailing from the state, and so much more. I hope you enjoy the video, and come away with some newfound respect for West Virginia

    An American state iceberg is the most unexpected thing I’ve ever seen so far lmao

    A video about a state of a country I don't even live in? hell yeah I'm gonna watch it

  • @Gage_The_Comrade_or_Something

    Fellow West Virginian here. Seeing the increase in interest for my state in the advent of Country Roads & Fallout 76 over the years has been awesome to witness. This state, while one of the poorest in the nation, has such rich culture & many incredibly generous people living in it. It’s nice to see people bringing the Mountain State, with all its good & bad, into the spotlight :)

    1:03:50 I live in Nicholas county and sadly the powels mountain goat has passed away but there is now a monument on the mountain remembering our beloved goat ❤️

    Fallout gave me joy in realising I'm in THIS location/state, and everytime I wander around, I just appreciate everything about it, just like 76. It's lovely learning about a state whose song, and history is interesting as hell, here In CA, it's silly, and very hot...

    I'd watch an iceberg about any topic if it was made by you. Top tier for this YT genre

    I have never been to West Virginia. I never plan to visit West Virginia. And yet I love your style of explaining things and icebergs so much that here I am.

    I went to see where the silver bridge collapsed at point pleasant, where the moth man statue is. It was a fun trip, love west VA from Georgia!

  • @wildcard1059
    @wildcard1059 Před 4 dny +1

    Fellow wv resident from Putnam. I’m not sure if you made this iceberg or not. If you didn’t, it’s possible the Whittaker family entry may also be referring to Jack Whittaker who won the lottery which eventually caused the death of many of his family members. Great video though!

  • @115Cyprain
    @115Cyprain Před 5 dny +5

    My favorite thing to tell people about our state is the coal wars and the battle of Blair mountain. As much crap as WV gets, I'm proud to have called it home. Thanks for taking the time to make this video and keep up the great work!

    This was a fun video. I've always been fascinated by lesser populated areas in countries. Personally, I'm from a Swedish province called Ångermanland. The town I live in is mostly famous for having birthed several successful ice hockey players.

    I didn’t think of this when thinking of iceberg topic ideas. Someone should make icebergs on some obscure states or countries like Montana, or Mongolia

    @JacobisLaya Před 5 dny

    Kind of funny that as a Wv native that I knew all the things in the iceberg and still really enjoyed it. My mom was good friends with Mary Lou Retton and used to tumble with her at the park, (Now known as Mary Lou Retton Park). Love the vid

  • @CrackTheCodeYT
    @CrackTheCodeYT Před 5 dny

    I saw this video and thought damn tanman5123 likes his own state, next you should do the other state to break away from Virgina, Kentucky. Ive been to West Virginia a couple of times and the most common thing I think about is the fact that yall's power grid just completely failed this year due to thunderstorms.

    Okay, but Fallout 76 is actually pretty good now like it dosen't crash, and the only sucky part is the first like 2 quests, but obviously, that's the starting, so it all appears bad
