Ok I'm the first one to say this. I'm from California and I've never met a single person that has a "California" accent. Most of us talk in the normal American accent. But we do say "like" a lot
same people have so many stereotypes about the state but in reality i'm from a small town on the central coast but i'm thinking about moving to LA to go to college there
St. JoplinTM The fort is actually still there and has been restored to historical accuracy and is an interesting tourist stop. It's just a beautiful hour's drive up Hwy. 1 from Bodega Bay, where the classic movie "The Birds" was filmed.
I live in San Bernardino and whenever I drive to Las Vegas, I can see where the San Andreas fault split the mountainside, its pretty cool and scary at the same time.
Fun fact... If you happen to be walk in the Red woods, if you here the sound of thunder jump to the base of the tree. That's because it's not thunder but a branch falling.

Speaking as a 26 year resident of California, I can tell you that the sizable, sleepy city of Petaluma, located in famous Sonoma county, is the worlds number one source of butter and eggs. A fact that it happily celebrates with its annual butter and eggs day parade, held during April of every year. And also that Santa Rosa, California, also residing in Sonoma county, was where famous American movie American graffiti was filmed. Oh and Paramormal Activity 3 was also filmed there but we don't talk about that one.

Pierre Buie II the original, although I’m a big fan of the 2019 life action remake as well. But considering how 101 facts has done these kind of videos in the past they’ll most likely work it in as well as the straight to DVD sequels and probably even the tv show.
Another haunted location in California (among several) is the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, a house that was continually built upon by its owner, Sarah Winchester, to become a gargantuan maze, owing to the belief that the spirits of people killed by her husband's rifle company. Today it's not only a great tourist attraction, but supposed to be haunted to the brim. And God, do I want to visit. Thanks for letting me know about the Dark Watchers, by the way. I'm going to have to look those up. Sounds super creepy. Please do 101 Facts about: 1. Stephen King 2. Sailor Moon 3. Ballet 4. King Arthur 5. Lucifer (TV series)
Live 40 minutes from there. Never saw anything weird on the midnight Halloween tours or during the yearly family visits there. Where's your proof it's haunted?
1) it’s NorCal 2) Benicia, the former capital, is pronounced buh-nee-shuh, Trust me, I grew up there. Also, there were like three other cities that were also temporarily the capital before Sacramento, not just Benicia. 3) Benicia is also the city where the secret of gold was leaked by a drunk guy in a bar so that’s fun
1:00 Dear Sam, detail you should already know given the nature of your channel. Mexico is not in the United States but since America is the name of the entire continent, Mexico is indeed in America, same as Canada and all the other countries geographically below Mexico in the American continent. Please mark that difference at least on specific facts like this one.
I'm from Bombay Beach California. It is officially the lowest in elevation community in the western hemisphere. It is also located on the coast of the Salton sea. Calipatria CA which I went to high school is about 30 miles from Bombay Beach has the world's tallest flag pole below sea level.
