I had always heard that anthracite mining would give bituminous miners nightmares.

Great interview!

My granma lived to be 97 Oh the things she lived through.

Gotta love the Old Humor 😂

Dude literally has coal in his blood this is fantastic.

Very informative

Thank you for putting this video together. Thank you for letting us hear of your life, Mr. Voystock. The stories of the men who lived the life and worked the mines need to be told, preseved, and passed on. I closed my eyes while watching, and I swear I could hear my Uncle 'Lige. He worked the anthracite mines all his adult life, save when he served in the Navy (IIRC) in WWII. I used to walk the streets in the town where he lived, plucking blue-black, shiny chunks of coal out of the grass, sticking it in an empty metal Bandaids box. Whenever we visited, I brought it with me and filled it again. He passed away when I was in 8th grade. Thank you for stirring good memories out of their slumber.

Thank you so much for doing this and putting it together. Awesome job!

What an absolute legend 🫡

Guys like this just got in there and do it These guys was brought up poor ,didn't take no hand out they just worked. My family also and even I done a lot of things people don't want to do.

Way more guts then I've got !

did you guys riddle the mine with little souvenirs, magazines and maybe a little action figure for future explorers?

I want a job like this

I wouldn't be tapping that roof with a pick while standing under it

what an awesoms video !

my favorite part is when the dynamite is going off and he timing the blasts then yells!! love it

awesome video!

Great video showing the entire process! How much is an ore cart of coal worth???

They made a Red Devil...we used to steal them🤣🤙

Условия конечно адовые. Врагу не пожелаешь такую шахту и такие условия.

Really hard work no one felt like doing but when it comes to a end somehow it's a sad feeling. Thank you to all the miners without you theirs no us.

What is the other 3 Antheracite Deep coal Mines that are still in operation to this day?

Why is it being closed?

Thanks for sharing. That’s some great footage. Imagine what it would be with today’s sensors. I’m wondering could this be enhanced any better with modern software. When did this cease operation?

Fun fact..part of that mine is under my house. Deep under my house but still.

Круто! Жесть, конечно.

Честно, какой то дурдом. Никакой безопасности, ни прогрессивной технологии, ни прогноза газодинамического явления, ничего. На дворе 21 век, вы бы еще кайлом бы добывали.

I cannot believe that in the US is the 21st century that people are still working in this archaic and dangerous environment! FFS, this isn't cool!!

Hi from India underground coal mining

This was magnitudes better than most mine channels.....thanks.

super cool

Fascinating

thanks for posting

Do they leave all the equipment down there or is it salvaged to be sold?

Very interesting,my Grandfather and my Father, were both Coal Miners from Centralia area, and worked the mines in the Ravens Run, Shanadoa are of Pa.

Thanks for explaining all this My dad was a certified miner before he bought his truck and started delivering to houses and businesses He had a nickname of SIX CAR EDDIE He only briefly told stories about mining and never got into details like you guys He did say that the South Wilkes Barre mine scared him and only once mined there Back when he was mining he was given a section to mine and no other miner worked it He said the purest coal came out of the Westmorland in West Wyoming

Make a garage and house out of that

I’m from Scranton… what ever became of this project and are there any abandoned or ghost towns near Wilkes Barre Scranton area - somewhere to … ah camp , ya camp I live right on the site of Knox mine disaster , I’m thinking about taking over the old Pittston hospital- it’s got a boiler / generator Vandals got too it last year It was in good condition Vandalism sucks . I’m thinking there should be at least 2 miles underground of 7-10 layer stories of mines that go about 20-30 mines under this place- should be enough space to store some old cars and tap into natural gas for energy. Know if any oil wells or deposits in pa ? I need sweet crude oil for refining purposes Thanks

Thank you for the fascinating perspective!! I’m now a little more aware of deep anthracite coal mining!!

Ganz schön schräg.

I am currently doing a research on this. Please how old is this video? Also, I have not seen cuurent data on active coal mine sites in PA. the latest Ive seen is 2022. Do you know of the most curent or where i can get them? Thanks
