    This week we tried to explore an abandoned Walmart in Kentucky! It has been closed for over 8 years and still has power and products inside!
    This location was deemed too unsafe to remain open after many employees and customers reported significant cracks all throughout the store and parking lot.
    Join us today as we venture inside this dangerously abandoned Walmart!

    This Walmart holds a ton of memories for me. My grandparents used to take me in when I was little, give me two shopping carts to fill, and they’d go “hide them for Santa to find” and we did the same with my kids’ toys. I believe the city owns it and it’s typically guarded in the evenings. I’m surprised no one followed you up there, honestly. There were tons of different stories about why it closed from snake infestations to an unsafe foundation. I tend to believe the unsafe foundation version, as it is, in fact, built on old abandoned mine works. They do use it for storage now. I *believe* the city took it over.
    I absolutely love exploration videos and I’m happy every time I see one from home. Thanks for the upload ♥️
