Abandoned boats, horse bones, and bottles, lots of bottles. Dead Horse Bay in Brooklyn, New York is definitely out of the ordinary with a very interesting and slightly dark history. I wouldn't consider it an abandoned beach but it certainly has that feel and look. Tons of garbage being eroded out of a the landfill and thousands of bottles laying on the beach. Bring your thick rubber boots and some gloves to this place. Oddly enough, it is managed by the National Park Service and technically it is illegal to remove items. However many argue that they are doing a service by removing trash off the beach. For those who are interested in going to find some treasures, I didn't get the vibe anyone really cares much about this place in the slightest bit.

    Thanks for watching! If you sent me a message on my website and I did not respond, I probably did not receive it due to email issues. Feel free to send again. themobileinstinct.com/

    As a proud Californian, I find this amazing! A New Yorker's version of a nature hike at the beach.

    Sooooo, I can get a citation from the city for letting my lawn grown too tall, but they can let the ocean swallow up a fucking landfill? sounds about right....
  • So,sad to see all that garbage going into our ocean! Also I'm sure there is alot of cool artifacts. NY needs to get it cleaned up!
  • The tide making all the bottles clink is a creepy sound. You can almost hear Luther ask the warriors to come out to play.
  • That's wild man I've never even heard of that place. A place where New Yorkers just allowed tons of garbage to freely flow into the ocean way to go New York!

    This video has been recommended to me for a few days now. Finally watched it. What an amazing place, really cool people are still allowed to explore it.
  • To everyone wondering how they got there: They got there via flooding during a hurricane. Many people lost their boats and they were everywhere. I saw some recently in queens.
  • @kayytack123
    How freaking sad that the state doesn’t clean that up. What a disaster
  • It’s strange how land fills always become historical discoveries. We find ancient garbage dumps in Rome or Greece and they become important archeology sites. Give it 1 or 2 thousand years and our landfills will be no different t.

    An explorer channel that doesn't have free trap music droning in the background and some dude telling me to "pound that like button"? Wtf is this?

    i grew up in Brooklyn,and back in the day,my brothers and i would go down there on many an occasion. I found some amazing stuff over the years buried in the sand. Dozens of antique bottles and whatnot. Old school Coke,pepsi and & 7 up glass receptacles,intact with painted labels. It was a pretty cool exploring,like being some kind of modern day archeologist. Creepily enough,i once discovered an old glass prescription bottle with a label on it on it for anti psychotic meds. Kinda weird to say the least lol.

    "The entire area is managed by the National park Service" It's sad I'm not even shocked that they don't even bother to clean the place
  • @el6237
    Disgusting- how we’ve treated the ocean as a dumping ground!
  • @I.Fumblebee.I
    With a little bit of flex tape those boats will be as good as new.
  • Omg there must be so many people out there with huge creative potential to recycle this stuff on the beach. I live in NZ and if you could see the public toilets designed by Austrian artist Friedensreich Regentag Dunkelbunt Hundertwasser (1928-2000). Built mostly with recycled materials, the toilets incorporate bricks, bottles, tiles and colourful pottery.Mar 29, 2016. Its quirky, functional and a tourist drawcard. The roof is grass and this place never ceases to amaze. You have history lying on the beach. Why bury it again, those knives, bottles, silver, perfume bottles can create so much with the right people with imagination and funding from city councillors or even the locals themselves. So much potential to reuse and recycle and keep history alive creatively //

    I put that wrench and marble there last week for a reason man. geeze
  • @jaywest4102
    Disgusting what the state did to that island, and when it became a liability, transferred it to the park service so the federal taxpayers not just the state will have to pay.
  • This is so cool- and since there'll never be a big-budget National Geographic documentary on the glories of Dead Horse Bay, I'm glad Mobile Instinct's got it covered!
  • @celticlass8573
    This "hidden gem" is also an environmental nightmare. Why isn't NY dealing with this? Why are they allowing yet more garbage to go into the ocean? What the hell is wrong with them?
