I always thought and pictured YogTowers as being in the top floors of an office skyscraper.. not just being some random house surrounded by other attached houses.
I came in around 2009-2010 :) just because my friends got into mine craft and I wanted to see what it was all about :D heard most of the podcasts as they came out as well which is real cool. I have grown apart, but still have a soft spot for their content :)
I never looked up what the building looked like from the outside (because I respect privacy) but DAMN I never expected it to look like that, I always thought it would be different!
of course. the famous washing machine in the background making noise. The Amy Pond cut out in Simons room "Just ignore that" and one of the first times i saw Simons real face was when he had a dwarf hat on in their backyard and hewas digggy diggying a hole. lol
I've been watching the Yogscast for the past 9 years. Simon and Lewis were the first UA-cam channel I ever watched (followed by Inthelittlewood). I've grown up watching all these different channels merge into one as everyone within the Yogs has changed as people over the years. And I hate getting all sappy and centimental, so therfore I will simply say: 1.0, you will be missed. You've held so much history of one of my favourite things. Seeya later, Shitlord.
People living in that street will long wonder why every day there are nerds turning up with photocamera's in their street, taking photo's of a seemingly random building, now that the old location is known XD
5:04 that building in the background, been there plenty a time to visit cabbott circus, had no idea I was right next to the homebase for all the yogscast the whole time wow :p
It's hard for me to find words to express this, but I'll do my best ^^Six years ago, I was a sad pre-teen who had just moved across country.I had no friends, and no connection with anybody.I developed mild depression - Something I still struggle with.I discovered UA-cam during this time.I stumbled, one day, upon Minecraft videos.Then, I stumbled upon Tekkit.Duncan is whom I started with, of the Yogscast. Soon after, Rythian. Blackrock, during this time, is what kept me going.Then I found out about Martyn. And Strippen. And Simon and Lewis. And so on, so forth.These last six years, as I've struggled through my junior high, and high school years, you guys have been what has kept me from ending it. I've matured, and became stronger, because i could always look forward to coming, and watching your recent uploads.I'm going to be headed to University this Fall, and I honestly have to say this.Thank you.I would not have made it this far without you guys.This move your making, is symbolic to me. It's you guys getting a better space, and getting a second chance at a fresh start for myself.So again, I thank you. If it weren't for you guys... I honestly don't know where I would be.Thank you.
Uni can be tough or eye-opening, depending on what cards your dealt. Sadly I was so stressed that I didn't regularly watch yog videos, but now that I've graduated I watch most of the main channel and hatfilms. Anywho gl with uni, if you live on campus and not an hour away like I did you're already going to have a much better time that I did lol
You can see that Turps is quite emotional as well about it so many memories and videos were made in those rooms beautiful moments. End of an era and start of a new one all things must come to an end but the yogscast are still going strong
Well there definitely is. Just ran it a few more times and it seems Google uses a combination of photos over the years depending on where you drop the pin. Second time I tried he wasn't there and the photos were stamped 2017. Third time I tried I got him again, photos stamped 2015. Looks kind of like Sjin, although I don't recall him ever having a big ginger beard. www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.4601832,-2.5843141,3a,75y,217.23h,88.04t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sfblZO3ZjJLUDqPl1djgEdQ!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo2.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3DfblZO3ZjJLUDqPl1djgEdQ%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D196.04898%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i13312!8i6656
They left a USB stick at the old place that contains the SoI files, in hopes that the person who buys the old YogTowers will finish it in their place. JK, that is highly unlikely, and I’m not a member of the Yogscast, so I don’t know what happens at the YogTowers anyway.
Indeed, a lot of people seemed to think Yogtowers meant top floor skyscraper or some nonsense, but it was really a basement. And they fooled everyone, for years!
Thanks heaps @Turps for the YogTours! its been so amazing watching the Yogscast grow, i look forward to the future of Yogscast, that will be that every bit more enjoyable with the amazing humor that comes with the amazing people you guys have there. It's so great to be able to piece together all the Yog-ventures that have taken place at Yogtowers 1.0. You have finally answered a long asked question by a long watching fan, "Where the hell are these twats?". I dont think i can thank you or the Yogscast enough for the endless work that everyone has put in. I think i speak on behalf of all the Yog-fans and Yognaughts when i say, we are greatful :D
I thought it might have been a few floors based on the "TGS Podcast" episode with Martyn as a guest, where he said that he was put in the basement of YogTowers when he first got there.
Nopad17 YT its similar to my office im a policeman but used to be a gamer/ video editor and i had 4 rooms the recording studio, the editing studio, the lounge and the kitchen however my office is in worcester and before you dicks think of robbing me and shit, i have cameras alarms and a licensed mp5 so back off
Exactly where I thought it was! After running into several Yogscast members it became clear! :D So glad you stayed in Brizzle. Fantastic having you here!
I'm actually heart broken, and I absolutely *NEED* that Jaffa Factory T-Shirt to remember the old Yog-Towers and the amazing Tekkit series you guys did so long ago. Thank you guys so much! :D
I think a lot of us here grew up watching you guys since the early Minecraft days. Back when it was just Simon and Lewis playing Minecraft lol. First series I started watching was their SoI series when it started off as a Minecraft let's play only to turn it into an adventure. Good times, love you guys
I remember listening to a Yogpod episode from way back where Simon and Lewis joked about having a 'Yogtower' office building some day, incredible how far they've come.
yeah you know why the adress became known? they showed their building in some real life videos like the Ice bucket challenge, and since they stated they were like 200 meters from Cabot circus literally everyone could find the place on googlemaps if they just took a few minutes of exploring :P
God I remember being 16 when Jaffa Factory came out, i had played Minecraft a bit by that time but Jaffa Factory was the thing that got me into Tekkit and then into the countless other modpacks ive played since then. In a way I think Jaffa Factory inspired a lot of the modpacks as a whole
I knew where the Yogtowers were for the past couple of years and I was always hoping to see someone from Yogscast when I would go to Cabot Circus (I did get to meet Ross, Troot, Sjin and I saw Simon and Martin from a far)... Really sad that I no longer will have that to look forward to!
Aww, it is a bit sad to see it all empty like that. The old office will be missed. But the new office does look really cool, and I'm sure many great memories will be made there as well! :)
During one of Sjin's pokemon go videos, he accidentally showed where yogtowers was, and I found it google maps. I've kept that link for a year now, and it is exciting to see I was right about where it was.

I rocked up to that door once. I was on my honeymoon. Lewis was outside and was shortly joined by Sjin, Duncan and Sips. Better than the wedding, that.
"This is the last time I'll *legally* be allowed in YogTowers 1.0"
What are you planning Turps, I want in.
he is going in again, illegally, to steal the beeping door
Patrick Star not if the fans do it first!
Vaas Montenegro rainbow 6 siege paid promotional challenge... the poor council workers converting it to flats will never know what hit them.
He'll be stealing the copper
218 no, but have I ever told you the definition of insanity?
Shit, it really is the end of an era.
I mean it's both an end and a beginning, if you think about it.
"end of an era" Lol, it's just a building, still the same people.
qwertyismymom But it's not all the same people at all...half the yogs have left or given up.

Oliver Delin its the same spirit ^~^
I always thought and pictured YogTowers as being in the top floors of an office skyscraper.. not just being some random house surrounded by other attached houses.
JamesXIX same...
Whole life completely ruined.
JamesXIX they don't really have skyscrapers Bristol
The tallest building we have is 19 floors high and looks like a shitty skinny version of the jaffa factory.
Didn't they base the jaffa factory off a building in bristol?
I remember bluexephos and the original minecraft survival 8 years since I found that channel
Mikey Hoban that channel name.. right In my inner child
oh yeah, i was around before they even started the SoI stuff, sadly not around for their WoW stuff tho :S
i joined in around Yogpod 12, i think that was quite a while before SOI no?
the first series i saw from them was the survival island. i loved SoI, later I loved tekkit, but unfortunately all those days are gone.
I came in around 2009-2010 :) just because my friends got into mine craft and I wanted to see what it was all about :D heard most of the podcasts as they came out as well which is real cool. I have grown apart, but still have a soft spot for their content :)
I never looked up what the building looked like from the outside
(because I respect privacy)
but DAMN I never expected it to look like that, I always thought it would be different!
Same here i also find it amazing how when i was younger i looked up to these guys so much but seeing this makes me realise they are just normal people
ChippyGaming chippy the terraria legend
ChippyGaming wow I didn't expect to see you here.
I always assumed for some reason it would look a bit like a warehouse on the outside.
Never excepted you to be here Chippy, I love your content :D
Interesting that I always wondered where Yogtowers was, and I walked passed it every day.
No, no you did not.
HeavenHammer I did
I take that road into Cabot circus
Did you not once catch a glimpse of one of the yogscast?
Did you never look into it? Its pretty obvious from their videos
Wow.
I still remember when Simon and Lewis lived together... Anyone else?
Yogtowers Pre-Alpha
Yog tower pre-release, yogtowers 1.0, yogtowers remastered
I still remember when Lewis broke Simon's light for 1 mil subs.
puu.sh/wvHJ0/1df6924d0b.jpg
Look at that young lad with evil intent.
"I'M COMING, WASHING MACHINE! I'M FUCKING COMING!!!"
of course. the famous washing machine in the background making noise. The Amy Pond cut out in Simons room "Just ignore that" and one of the first times i saw Simons real face was when he had a dwarf hat on in their backyard and hewas digggy diggying a hole. lol
Bye YogTowers, hello YogStudios
This put me in such a nostalgic mood. mad to think I was 15 when I started watching your vidoes. life was so much simpler back then.
iamwearingacup and had so many more israphaels
iamwearingacup Feels like only yesterday turps was filming the first yogtours In that building.
I was 12, in 2012 when I first watched them. Yeah I know spoopy coincidence :o I didn't even have a youtube account back then.
I've been watching the Yogscast for the past 9 years. Simon and Lewis were the first UA-cam channel I ever watched (followed by Inthelittlewood). I've grown up watching all these different channels merge into one as everyone within the Yogs has changed as people over the years. And I hate getting all sappy and centimental, so therfore I will simply say: 1.0, you will be missed. You've held so much history of one of my favourite things. Seeya later, Shitlord.
Pretty sure all your memories mattered because of the people seriously it's a building
People living in that street will long wonder why every day there are nerds turning up with photocamera's in their street, taking photo's of a seemingly random building, now that the old location is known XD
5:04 that building in the background, been there plenty a time to visit cabbott circus, had no idea I was right next to the homebase for all the yogscast the whole time wow :p
R.I.P YogTowers 1.0, I do like how they ended their reign at the building, by Revealing the location
It's hard for me to find words to express this, but I'll do my best ^^Six years ago, I was a sad pre-teen who had just moved across country.I had no friends, and no connection with anybody.I developed mild depression - Something I still struggle with.I discovered UA-cam during this time.I stumbled, one day, upon Minecraft videos.Then, I stumbled upon Tekkit.Duncan is whom I started with, of the Yogscast. Soon after, Rythian. Blackrock, during this time, is what kept me going.Then I found out about Martyn. And Strippen. And Simon and Lewis. And so on, so forth.These last six years, as I've struggled through my junior high, and high school years, you guys have been what has kept me from ending it. I've matured, and became stronger, because i could always look forward to coming, and watching your recent uploads.I'm going to be headed to University this Fall, and I honestly have to say this.Thank you.I would not have made it this far without you guys.This move your making, is symbolic to me. It's you guys getting a better space, and getting a second chance at a fresh start for myself.So again, I thank you. If it weren't for you guys... I honestly don't know where I would be.Thank you.
Uni can be tough or eye-opening, depending on what cards your dealt. Sadly I was so stressed that I didn't regularly watch yog videos, but now that I've graduated I watch most of the main channel and hatfilms. Anywho gl with uni, if you live on campus and not an hour away like I did you're already going to have a much better time that I did lol
I hope you're doing better now, hugs
I am, thankfully. While I still struggle with my depression, I'm getting better.
Hehe, I am going to be living on campus. It's a 3 hour drive from my house to it, and I can't drive, so I didn't really have a choice for that x3
Mistypelt320 Great, if you ever feel the need to vent or talk to a stranger, you can always message me :)
You can see that Turps is quite emotional as well about it so many memories and videos were made in those rooms beautiful moments. End of an era and start of a new one all things must come to an end but the yogscast are still going strong
If you look at the old address on Google Street View there's a very ginger lad stood outside Yogtowers 1.0 :)
St. Paul Street, Bristol
Twisted Inc well there definitely is not, i just checked and theres a man with a cap walking down the street
What's the address?
its a lie. im kinda dissapointed
Well there definitely is. Just ran it a few more times and it seems Google uses a combination of photos over the years depending on where you drop the pin. Second time I tried he wasn't there and the photos were stamped 2017. Third time I tried I got him again, photos stamped 2015. Looks kind of like Sjin, although I don't recall him ever having a big ginger beard.

So when are you finishing Shadow of Israphel
Funnyusername there it is
They left a USB stick at the old place that contains the SoI files, in hopes that the person who buys the old YogTowers will finish it in their place.
JK, that is highly unlikely, and I’m not a member of the Yogscast, so I don’t know what happens at the YogTowers anyway.
+ExE Boss Wow, you almost got me there.
half the people here wont know what that is
its been too long :(
YogTowers was perfectly camouflaged as a shitty apartment building... clever. VERY clever.
Indeed, a lot of people seemed to think Yogtowers meant top floor skyscraper or some nonsense, but it was really a basement. And they fooled everyone, for years!
That intro aged well :D
Farewell, sweet child. You will be missed not with grief but with fond memory. May you rest in forever peace and grant luck towards YogTowers 2.0.
Thanks for the tours, Turps. Ye Old YogTower will be missed, but here's to many years in the fancy new place.
Left the keys in the building. This is probably the best way to end the history of Yogtowers in my opinion.
Thanks heaps @Turps for the YogTours! its been so amazing watching the Yogscast grow, i look forward to the future of Yogscast, that will be that every bit more enjoyable with the amazing humor that comes with the amazing people you guys have there.

am i the only one that thought yogtowers was actually a tower and not a basement?🤔
no
I thought it might have been a few floors based on the "TGS Podcast" episode with Martyn as a guest, where he said that he was put in the basement of YogTowers when he first got there.

Ezareth I kinda asumed they had a whole tower including basement. Now i think of it, it sounds a little bit insane...
Nopad17 YT same when he walked outside i was like uhh.... what
no way jaffafactory was 5 years ago!?!? WOW
I've been watching since before yogtowers. Its really sad to see the end of an era
well things will change now. all we can do is look back and remember those days
Was a great video, thanks for showing off everything and letting us see things we haven't before. Looking forward to the future!
Rest in peace lots of memories rip SOI
Exactly where I thought it was! After running into several Yogscast members it became clear! :D So glad you stayed in Brizzle. Fantastic having you here!
Rest In Peace YogTowers, you will be missed and never forgotten.
Holy shit, I have walked past Yogtowers 1.0 so many times without knowing, haha, hope the new offices is great and everyone loves it! :)
i find it SO SOOOO GREAT! how much you all do for charity! you make this world so much better thanks yogscast.
Fitting, I'm moving today too. The nostalgia is strong, but onwards to bigger and better things indeed.
I'm actually heart broken, and I absolutely *NEED* that Jaffa Factory T-Shirt to remember the old Yog-Towers and the amazing Tekkit series you guys did so long ago.
Thank you guys so much! :D
Yogtowers ull always be loved I was there for first video of jaffa factory I'll miss u xx
I think a lot of us here grew up watching you guys since the early Minecraft days. Back when it was just Simon and Lewis playing Minecraft lol. First series I started watching was their SoI series when it started off as a Minecraft let's play only to turn it into an adventure. Good times, love you guys
Thanks for this series, Turps! Can't wait for the continuation in 2.0!

So glad I got to come at least once and see the OG before the move! On to a brighter future now :)
If anyone watched Sjins Pokemon go series could have figured out where Yogtowers was.
It's pretty easy to find, you can just look up where inthelittlewood inc is registered, and there you go
the address also got leaked a few years ago.
yeah you know why the adress became known? they showed their building in some real life videos like the Ice bucket challenge, and since they stated they were like 200 meters from Cabot circus literally everyone could find the place on googlemaps if they just took a few minutes of exploring :P
Yeah and it's so cool to know that most people were just curious to know were it was and are cool enough not to bother them.
I'm not crying you are crying!
That was nothing like I imagined the building to look like, I suppose if I wanted to I could've looked the place up but damn
Wow I still vividly remember the Jaffa Factory, tough to think that i was in year 6 back then...
wait jaffa factory was 5 years ago holy shit it feels like yesterday
I've been watching them for 5 years. that's crazy.
Yogscast are so amazing, they sell all these things and do all of these events and give it all to charity.
My God Yogtowers was there! I've been passed it many times when I was on holiday!
RIP Yogtowers, you will be missed...
But the new yogtowers looks even better!
Farewell Yogtowers. Many happy times from the videos it created.
Lets all send our love to the good ol' Yogtowers. What things that place has seen over the years!
What a time. So much was done. So much has changed. Alas we move forward great thing await like Yogscast isorrowsproductions
I teared up a little watching this, so sad to see the office go but im really looking forward to he shenanigans in the new one
God I remember being 16 when Jaffa Factory came out, i had played Minecraft a bit by that time but Jaffa Factory was the thing that got me into Tekkit and then into the countless other modpacks ive played since then. In a way I think Jaffa Factory inspired a lot of the modpacks as a whole
I used to walk past it all the time and knew it was there and saw lots of yogs in the area
I knew where the Yogtowers were for the past couple of years and I was always hoping to see someone from Yogscast when I would go to Cabot Circus (I did get to meet Ross, Troot, Sjin and I saw Simon and Martin from a far)... Really sad that I no longer will have that to look forward to!
I wonder if the store ships to the Faroe Islands... Only one way to find out i suppose!
So good these real life videos.
Farewell so many awesome memories!
yogtours breaking and entering edition
Pretty much what happens when you advance in Game Dev Tycoon and purchase a better building, will always miss this lovely place.
You hear that?
Yup, that's sound of my childhood wailing.
man I love this guy
That sound from the door is the battery going in the magnet. It just needed replacing to make it stop.
Turps, you should try and get plaque on the wall outside the entrance, to commemorate it!
Aww, it is a bit sad to see it all empty like that. The old office will be missed. But the new office does look really cool, and I'm sure many great memories will be made there as well! :)
This makes me so sad... I feel like your campy YogTours episodes were yesterday
to think that I have watched the yogscast for nearly six years is actually pretty crazy its like they say time really does fly.
Now to find our where YogTowers 2.0 is
HA! I KNEW THE LOCATION BEFORE YOU REVEALED IT!! Sadly though, I live in Liverpool
During one of Sjin's pokemon go videos, he accidentally showed where yogtowers was, and I found it google maps. I've kept that link for a year now, and it is exciting to see I was right about where it was.
Farewell YogTowers 1.0, you will forever be replaced and forgotten.
I found the office on street view a while ago when they did a video outside the office. They showed a nearby building and i searched it up.
cant wait to the see the new towers once everything is 100% set up and organized
how much for the shirt that has a turps shaped bite out of it
would love to buy the T but its not on the Canadian american store.
As soon as you walked outside I had a feeling you were going to be locked out. GG
Wasn't the first Yogtowers where Lewis, Simon and Hannah lived in Reading?
a sad time... yet full of good change
but hey new digs is always exciting and refreshing
Throughout this entire video I was chanting "MONTAGE! MONTAGE! MONTAGE!" Disappointment ensued
Crappy Poem for YogTower, 1st time writing a poem:
Cry! Cry as seagulls craved
Howling through the window panes
Commenced the summer days
Screams, Rage and Laughs
Echoed in the corridors
Streams of wit and happy dew
Gleaned behind wooden doors,
For those in sorrow, in pain,
who very much adore
Cry! Cry as seagulls crave
Howling through window panes
Commence the summer days
Tsz Fung Yip Bravo sir. bravo.
God it must be a dream to have worked inside a company like this, i can only hope the first company i edit/do 3d work for is as chill as yogtowers.
That single dislike was from the seagull king. A prick to the end indeed!
This is feels like the end of The Truman Show.
Btw, lets not forget about Sipsco Dirt Factory
Are those audio cables (3:13) gonna be left there? If so that's a shame :( could have put them on eBay too. I'd buy them.
I rocked up to that door once. I was on my honeymoon. Lewis was outside and was shortly joined by Sjin, Duncan and Sips.
Better than the wedding, that.
Well you lot did good with the space you had
The New offices are in such a lovely location, so it will do them justice :)
Some say, you can still find Turps outside, looking for a way to get back in...
6:05 is that the park where Lewis did the "This is a sponsored video" intro?
More VLOGs please?
I walked pass Yogtowers everyday and I never knew that was where it is.
I'd love some occasional office vlogs from the new office
legit a bit sad. definitely the end of an era. but as you said, onwards and upwards!
BREAKING NEWS! Yogscast CEO Mark Turpin have been arrested earlier today while he was attempting to crawl through a window of upcomming apartments.
I honestly can't believe people didn't know where the building was. I discovered it years ago through a 2 minute google job. Wasn't too difficult.
I fucking knew it was near that phone booth
