Thanks for the video! Unfortunately, as an American, I can confirm this is not real and cannot possibly have happened because Pennsylvania doesn't exist. Loved the video very informative and very entertaining.
i grew up in pennsylvania and my heart broke when I heard they removed the graffiti highway. I had no idea they got rid of it and I always wanted to visit. It looked so amazing and filled with wonderful colorful art :(
Dude I swear to god in one year this guy will be verified with over a million subscribers and I won't be able to give proof I actually enjoyed this guy's content while he was still underrated af
I always love hearing about centralia but hearing an outside of the us perspective of the situation just makes the oddity of this disaster just a bit more funny
hey, i gotta say, you're sense of comedic/dramatic timing is top notch. not just on this video but all ive seen so far. i really love how you have touched my heart with the story of Cathy in the Doot Doot video *and* kept me on the edge of my seat wondering how many birthday mentions you were gonna be able to fit in the Gavle goat video (: Btw, my mother has a sister who lives in Stockholm with her partner and children, and gets a silly level of excited when Sweden is mentioned at all (and collects Sweden themed items) So i told her i was watching a Swedish youtuber. She was indeed delighted by this. However, she did feel your name, Jeff, wasn't "swedish enough." sincerest apologies for my mother's Swedaboo behaviour. (sweeaboo? sweeboo? sverigaboo?)
This channel deserves to have a subscriber count in the hundred of thousands!! Can't wait to see your channel grow, your videos are amazing. Thank you for the content, it's incredibly entertaining.
i dont know how but im glad i ended up here, on this channel. "maybe he was asking for it" really got me been binging your videos for a few hours now, keep it up i've enjoyed every single one of your videos! love from germany c:
Loved this video made about my state. Being a history buff interested in coal mining, i know a lot about centralia, and can confirm that the most inaccurate thing here is your pronunciation of "lancaster", being lane-kiss-ter. Wonderful video!!
I found this channel by chance and followed for the cat, stayed for the awesome content. Love your videos btw, my favs have been the SCP foundation videos. Your info videos are awesome too. Your way of storytelling is just mint. Keep up the great work!
I would comment just for engagement but anyone who can get me to watch both a several hour long video on a wood goat along with a video on a subject I already know about deserves more.
the names in this story truly are wonderful. thank u for telling me about this hot town, i am a statistical outlier (australian) and i have never heard of this place in my life
I loved the skit parts you did for this video, they were great! We should also find someone who will host a Centralia Smoking Cemetery visit, I'm sure we know someone nearby
I've watched quite a few videos about Centralia, but yours contained a couple things I hadn't previously heard about, so... cool! Thanks for the video, it's always nice to see a new upload.
I just got back home to Chicago from Lancaster Pennsylvania, kind of kicking myself for not venturing off and stopping in Centralia to take a look at it for myself.
Sorry for the comment so long after the video has been posted, but I just recently found your content and its delightful. I visited Centralia early last year, seeing the active vent and in the middle of Pennsylvania winter, got warm enough to have to take my jacket off because of the temperature difference (and a long walk down the graffiti highway wore me out lol) I also took a nice quiet walk around the Odd Fellows cemetery which has the old vents, it was really cool. This was a great watch and anyone who can make it out there definitely take a trip and see it, its really something.
I've been there! About 10 years ago. It was the most bizarre road trip ever. There were groups of people cooking hotdog and marshmallows over the heat coming from some of the bigger cracks. Couldn't have been healthy to eat that, but thats what they were doing. It was also cra,y to see the few houses, especially the ones that were "row" houses, that clearly were meant to be attached like town homes, but now stood alone. Lastly the cemetery there in town, was still lovingly maintained and that stuck out a lot to me.
My family is from PA (we moved when I was 4), and I have never heard of Centralia, so this was interesting :) Also, I got a good laugh out of, "You're feeling warm? Don't worry about it, it's just the Pennsylvania climate!" Truly, it can get upsettingly warm in the Summer- upsetting mostly because of the humidity, so you can't cool off via the evaporation of sweat because the air is so saturated very little is evaporating; if anything, it's adding MORE moisture to your skin- but I still wouldn't call it a generally warm climate. Temperate, at most. Then again, I now live near Phoenix, Arizona, so most places don't qualify as "warm" from my view. This may simply be a matter of perspective. Edit: I have asked my mother, and she knows about Centralia. I'm disappointed she never thought this might be something I'd be interested in hearing about :( Edit2: 10:40 PA residents can be remarkably stubborn about some things. This is one of the things that has lead to such events as the booing of Santa Claus at an American football game in Philadelphia, and the somewhat aggressive position that a Philly Cheesesteak is illegitimate unless it's actually been made *IN* Philadelphia. No matter how accurately it's made. (I know, I only mentioned Philly, but those are the most obvious examples I could think of.)
Additionally, I have a cat like that. You know, one who takes every mild gesture as an invitation to maul your hand. If I've learned anything about cats from a lifetime of having them, obviously your cat loves you very much 😻
+1 engagement. Seriously though you’re probably the most criminally underrated UA-camr I’ve come across and I love your videos. I’ve been binging them since the first video I saw. Can’t wait to see where you end up and I wish you nothing but success.
This is honestly one of the only reasonable attempted uses of eminent domain I've ever heard, which makes it all the more wild that it didn't stick. Your videos are consistent bangers, my guy.
My siblings has been there for a geology class trip. She said the famous road is gone. And there wasn’t much except sidewalks and trees. But it still was fascinating and eerie. It’s good that no one died there Also if you want to learn about another horrifying town look into Johnstown in PA. I had to learn a horrifying amount about it in a high school class for a day. 1889. The entire town flushed away. In the middle of the night in a rain storm that destroyed a large artificial pond that had dams owned by a hunting club that broke and there was no time to warn people. Oh and there is photographs of the rubble. It’s just everything is flattened….
If this makes you feel better, I'm a Mexican living in Mexico. If it makes you feel worse, ignore this. Assume I'm American. Or Swedish. Whatever rocks your boat. btw, I just discovered your channel today, and have been absolutely loving it. I was impressed at how small your community was, and I'm so happy to find your jazz skull vid went wild. Hope you get the recognition you deserve. Your work is inspiring. May blow some dust off my channel (it's not this one, hehe). You've inspired me back into UA-cam. So thanks, congrats, and hopefully you get the audience you deserve.
Ah Centralia. I love the names and history behind this town. Excellent video! I will suggest that Pennsylvania has some interesting lore. If you wanna see anything, look into Pittsburgh!
I discovered your channel through the jazz skull video and I just wanted you to know that you do amazing work! I look forward to seeing what else you’ll do in the future.
Hey Jeff! just found your epic channel and subscribed :) i actually live in PA, and a few summers ago, we took a family trip to Centralia because we heard it was going to be covered up and destroyed. it was definitely something to see. Glad we got to see it before it was gone, and glad i found your channel my guy! keep up the awesome work! 😀
I live in PA, and was lucky enough to visit Centralia in the mid 00's. The graffiti highway was cool, but the "smoke cemetery" as mentioned was the best part. Smoke coming out of the hills, bone white dead trees all over the hills, and then this....just immaculate cemetery. Just ignore all the shotgun shells all over the ground, the locals get bored.
Going through and watching and liking all your vids after the Al Gore rythym lead me to your channel earlier today. Loving everything ive seen so far, i really hope u blow up soon. I look forward to more emotionally driven pieces like doot doot and the call of the void. But your humor has me sold either way I wish you all the best friend
The funny thng is that only people outside of the US seem to care or have interest that its still on fire. We Amercans just kinda went "Eh, I guess it exists" and just moved on.
As someone who lives within half an hour drive of Centralia, I always love finding out a channel that I enjoy has coincidentally already made a video on it!
The origin for the quirky things for patrons! I would say I hope they continue, but I'm not sure if you'll want to make 200+ at this point XD I'd never heard of this town and really enjoyed your coverage of it.
America is so big that you have to realize that a huge number of Americans have a very limited, regional/single-state exclusive experience. It's still cool to learn about places that are a 15 hour drive away.
I went out there 2 years ago. The highways covered in dirt and its pretty gross from rain and runoff, not a fun walk. If you think its abandoned and there are places to explore, save yourself the trip. Everything is dirtbike and quad trails now and they are heavily frequented in the nicer months
For a second I thought this was a Comment on Central Australia. Which yes, is perpetually on fire, between global warming and the naturally dry climate there are bushfires CONSTANTLY and our section of the ozone layer is one of the weakest and thinnest in the world. Help.
I am statically an American but I enjoy the way you tell things. Also, for seven years, I did work for a Swedish company if that allows us to meet one another halfway.
We have a city named Centralia in Washington state and I was worried for a moment that there were two horrifying things about our region that you deemed worthy of a UA-cam video.
You are the Swedish version of Kappa Kaiju or Super Eyepatch Wolf. Some odd but nice guy talking about topics he's interested in, and it's always worth a watch.
Something something comment comment engaging engaging I went through Missouri one time visiting some friends’ family and they very excitedly told me the there were underground gas fires that couldn’t be put out. Got me all excited for a documentary that we then couldn’t find, happy when this autoplayed after another video of yours finished. It’s covering basically the same thing lol. Sorry I can’t subscribe more, I don’t know if unsubscribing to resubscribe would just mess with your analytics but imagine I did it for the meme.
I live in NJ and even though it is a bit of a ways into PA(its a bug ass state) i have been here. When i was a teenager im in my 30s now me and my friends would go "weird njing" visiting creepy,weird,haunted sites in NJ which led us to doing some research in PA and this was one of MANY weird places in PA. theres also an abandoned dinosaur amusement park that was SUPER cool inside of but i did have to run from airport security as it is a stones throw away from said airport.
My mom is from the next town over from Centralia so we would stop through there on the way to go visit my grandmother. I've been to the cemetery there but I don't remember seeing much smoke lol
So no one is commenting on this guys dedication to the craft? Proceeds with the call to action even though he doesn’t even know why he’s in the tub and is being viciously attacked by a +5 dire gray tabby. Respect
Thanks for the video! Unfortunately, as an American, I can confirm this is not real and cannot possibly have happened because Pennsylvania doesn't exist. Loved the video very informative and very entertaining.
wait shit i live there
@@trainman05matthewb.65No, you don't.
@@trainman05matthewb.65no need to lie
It is only a commonwealth, after all
I can confirm this is true cause I live there. It’s not real.
Some of those people truly lived the "This is fine" meme
I had a joke about this that I scrapped during the writing. now regretting it.
@@jeffiotI'm imagining you performing or otherwise portraying some version of this meme. Ngl you really nail it 👏
i grew up in pennsylvania and my heart broke when I heard they removed the graffiti highway. I had no idea they got rid of it and I always wanted to visit. It looked so amazing and filled with wonderful colorful art :(
On the bright side they just covered it with dirt so it’s preserved and archeologists in the future will have fun digging it up
Im glad you think that but thats not how spraypaint works, it will degrade long before anybody wants to go looking at/for it
Fantastic video. +1,000,000 points for the “What was he wearing?” joke.
8:11 cat: hello pls pet me. *is not petted* cat: so you've chosen violence
Dude I swear to god in one year this guy will be verified with over a million subscribers and I won't be able to give proof I actually enjoyed this guy's content while he was still underrated af
I’ll remember you ❤
proof right here haha
yeh can't believe he's sub 100k subs, he'll be over a million by next year for sure
recently binged this channel after it being in my recommended. i cant BELIEVE he has so few subs and views
I'm so with you guys here ❤
I always love hearing about centralia but hearing an outside of the us perspective of the situation just makes the oddity of this disaster just a bit more funny
dude ever since ur doot video ive been binging all ur videos and im so obsessed… im so glad i found your channel 😭❤
hey, i gotta say, you're sense of comedic/dramatic timing is top notch. not just on this video but all ive seen so far. i really love how you have touched my heart with the story of Cathy in the Doot Doot video *and* kept me on the edge of my seat wondering how many birthday mentions you were gonna be able to fit in the Gavle goat video (:
Btw, my mother has a sister who lives in Stockholm with her partner and children, and gets a silly level of excited when Sweden is mentioned at all (and collects Sweden themed items) So i told her i was watching a Swedish youtuber. She was indeed delighted by this. However, she did feel your name, Jeff, wasn't "swedish enough." sincerest apologies for my mother's Swedaboo behaviour. (sweeaboo? sweeboo? sverigaboo?)
“I want to go to the fucking SMOKE CEMETERY!” is the most valid thing I have ever heard. Bro, same. 😆
I love seeing more content from you! Your story telling and editing style are a joy to watch!
This channel deserves to have a subscriber count in the hundred of thousands!! Can't wait to see your channel grow, your videos are amazing. Thank you for the content, it's incredibly entertaining.
maybe one day :) thank you.
dude you are great, best channel ive found in years.
i dont know how but im glad i ended up here, on this channel. "maybe he was asking for it" really got me
been binging your videos for a few hours now, keep it up i've enjoyed every single one of your videos! love from germany c:
I love the editing in these videos 👍
Loved this video made about my state. Being a history buff interested in coal mining, i know a lot about centralia, and can confirm that the most inaccurate thing here is your pronunciation of "lancaster", being lane-kiss-ter. Wonderful video!!
truly no bad names in that story
Lol I love the cat just going at your hand in the tub
I found this channel by chance and followed for the cat, stayed for the awesome content. Love your videos btw, my favs have been the SCP foundation videos. Your info videos are awesome too. Your way of storytelling is just mint. Keep up the great work!
One of my biggest anxieties is that huge threats will be ignored because it’s too awkward or inconvenient to relocate and fix.
I adore abandoned towns, thanks for making such a great video on it!
Lmao at your cat trying to eat your arm the whole time you are trying to record in the tub.
I would comment just for engagement but anyone who can get me to watch both a several hour long video on a wood goat along with a video on a subject I already know about deserves more.
your cat is absolutely adorable!
the names in this story truly are wonderful. thank u for telling me about this hot town, i am a statistical outlier (australian) and i have never heard of this place in my life
Man, your editing is on point, every video is better than the last!
I loved the skit parts you did for this video, they were great! We should also find someone who will host a Centralia Smoking Cemetery visit, I'm sure we know someone nearby

glad to hear there were some new stuff in there!
Love your cat attacking you while you ask us to like and subscribe and your complete lack of reaction to it
I just got back home to Chicago from Lancaster Pennsylvania, kind of kicking myself for not venturing off and stopping in Centralia to take a look at it for myself.
Ayyyy I live in lancaster, thanks for stopping by

That's a story I want to hear! The grounds keeper for the eternally burning city's cemetery. There's a horror movie there, I'm sure of it.
8:37 cat
As always, love your work! It's great to see your style grow and evolve with every release, and I love the topics you cover ^_^
Thank you so much!
As requested in the bathtub call to action: "whatever, as well"
going through your back catalogue. this is a great vid
My family is from PA (we moved when I was 4), and I have never heard of Centralia, so this was interesting :)

I love these sketches, like the editing style is absolutely hilarious and the writing just top notch, goddamn. Good stuff
Please how does this channel have not even 3000 subscribers I refuse to believe it
🤷♂️
He's at 187k now
how did i miss this? great as always, jeff!
Something else you might not know about America, is that calling someone a "coal burner" doesn't mean what you think it means
KITTEN IN THE BATHTUB

Another Jeffiot special! Great vid
Hey Jeffiot, I'm just getting back into all of your videos I've missed and this rules! Glad to see your quality has only improved. 🙂
Love this video, and also neat Rolodex
The „What was he wearing“ joke was WAY too good oh my god Jeff
loved going through all these older vids! still great
This is honestly one of the only reasonable attempted uses of eminent domain I've ever heard, which makes it all the more wild that it didn't stick. Your videos are consistent bangers, my guy.

Dude, I fkn love you. Thank you for all of your content.
Comment interaction, seriously love your content!
Another great video. I love your videos!
This is an incredible video, Jeffiot! You gained my sub. Can't wait to see what else you make!
you deserve so many more subs one day your gonna have a million i swear
Thank you for making my night a little less lonely. 😊
Ah Centralia. I love the names and history behind this town. Excellent video! I will suggest that Pennsylvania has some interesting lore. If you wanna see anything, look into Pittsburgh!
I discovered your channel through the jazz skull video and I just wanted you to know that you do amazing work! I look forward to seeing what else you’ll do in the future.
Lancaster gets an official Jeff mention?! Awsome.
Hell yeah lancaster represent
Hey Jeff! just found your epic channel and subscribed :) i actually live in PA, and a few summers ago, we took a family trip to Centralia because we heard it was going to be covered up and destroyed. it was definitely something to see. Glad we got to see it before it was gone, and glad i found your channel my guy! keep up the awesome work! 😀
How is this channel not bigger. The quality of videos is something more like a 1 million sub channel.
Your channel is fascinating, you've got a sub
I live in PA, and was lucky enough to visit Centralia in the mid 00's. The graffiti highway was cool, but the "smoke cemetery" as mentioned was the best part.

been binging your videos dawg

Blessed algorithm bless this channel with your growth
The origin for the quirky things for patrons! I would say I hope they continue, but I'm not sure if you'll want to make 200+ at this point XD I'd never heard of this town and really enjoyed your coverage of it.
Love your stories. This may not have been the most engaging, but keep 'em coming, friend.
Fahrenheit tells you how warm people feel.
Celsius tells you how warm water feels.
Kelvin tells you how warm atoms feel.
technically Fahrenheits tell you how hot the blood of a horse feels
America is so big that you have to realize that a huge number of Americans have a very limited, regional/single-state exclusive experience. It's still cool to learn about places that are a 15 hour drive away.
You use music better than anyone on UA-cam.
Except you. Better than anyone else on UA-cam. Possibly the entire internet besides a few DJs. well done
I went out there 2 years ago. The highways covered in dirt and its pretty gross from rain and runoff, not a fun walk. If you think its abandoned and there are places to explore, save yourself the trip. Everything is dirtbike and quad trails now and they are heavily frequented in the nicer months
Omw to watch all the Centralia footage I can, good job on another great video!
For a second I thought this was a Comment on Central Australia. Which yes, is perpetually on fire, between global warming and the naturally dry climate there are bushfires CONSTANTLY and our section of the ozone layer is one of the weakest and thinnest in the world.
Help.
Truly a Maestro of the UA-cam video format.
*clap
I love your videos! Hopefully you get the subscribers you deserve, I know it will happen eventually
this was a well planed organized video essay
I like to give people yearly reminders that the mine is still on fire. Why? I don't know. Could be my love of Silent Hill.
"Maybe he was asking for it"
I am statically an American but I enjoy the way you tell things. Also, for seven years, I did work for a Swedish company if that allows us to meet one another halfway.
Love the editing 😂
I like ur stuff! Just found the channel and it made my evening ^^
I always appreciate a good hoop-and-stick joke.
2024 is gonna be the year of the hoop-and-stick comeback (for ages 14 and up).
We have a city named Centralia in Washington state and I was worried for a moment that there were two horrifying things about our region that you deemed worthy of a UA-cam video.
You are the Swedish version of Kappa Kaiju or Super Eyepatch Wolf. Some odd but nice guy talking about topics he's interested in, and it's always worth a watch.
PA mentioned, amazing!!!
Great video as always
Next big subscriber special: visit Centralia, PA and then Centralia, WA
Something something comment comment engaging engaging
I went through Missouri one time visiting some friends’ family and they very excitedly told me the there were underground gas fires that couldn’t be put out. Got me all excited for a documentary that we then couldn’t find, happy when this autoplayed after another video of yours finished. It’s covering basically the same thing lol.
Sorry I can’t subscribe more, I don’t know if unsubscribing to resubscribe would just mess with your analytics but imagine I did it for the meme.
I live in NJ and even though it is a bit of a ways into PA(its a bug ass state) i have been here. When i was a teenager im in my 30s now me and my friends would go "weird njing" visiting creepy,weird,haunted sites in NJ which led us to doing some research in PA and this was one of MANY weird places in PA. theres also an abandoned dinosaur amusement park that was SUPER cool inside of but i did have to run from airport security as it is a stones throw away from said airport.
My mom is from the next town over from Centralia so we would stop through there on the way to go visit my grandmother. I've been to the cemetery there but I don't remember seeing much smoke lol
This is Fascniating thankyou
What a collection of outfits
