Dillon always dressed like a robber thug while we know he wouldn’t steal piece of bazooka gum from a 7-11 is the best!😂
Oh mg so funny so true
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA. Sending this to him.
5920 khz WBOH, went off the air Oct. 26th, 2009
It looks like that 5920 kHz WBOH Shortwave Christian Radio was based out of Newport, NC, and it apparently shut down in 2009. The tape machine in the back is a duplicator. I don't know the connection between the radio station and this place in WV, but my best guess is that someone may have recorded sermons and/or programs and then used the duplicator to make tapes to distribute. The church I grew up in used to do this for shut-ins waaay before the internet.
The shot of the sunlit green moss through the entwined sticky branches was amazing. I also like listening with headphones and the peaceful silence. Thanks Dan.
Sort wave? The Religious bought into SW to spread the word...😊
your penchant for finding these obscure interesting places is incredible.
Came for abandoned, stayed for the Christian radio.
Here for the coal mine
@@nikkireigns Here to hear Dillon screech when a spider crawls on him…😂
Here for a Dan Bell educational 😎✌️❤️
I'm here to say " C'mon Man you know the thing 😊"
I also came
Interesting! So the big building on the right next to the "Leatherface" Shack (that was probably a Tool/ Repair Station for Mine Equipment) was likely the Elevator system to get people down in the Mine and that brought material up, the Conveyor Arm running from that to the other structure with more Scaffold Arms was where both the Coal and Waste Rock would have been Conveyed out to waiting Trucks and a Depository (just a big pile that gets offloaded over time). Looked like a fairly small but substantial operation back in the day.
The big white building definitely looks like it was the headframe (where the shaft would have been, it's probably capped.) The green metal structure next to it was either ventilation or a secondary shaft for material.
@@mokinokaro Yep looks like it
Dan: "I think this is a Church." Promptly uses the Lord's name in vain because of sticker weed.
Lmao 🤣
666.
that picture of them reminds me of that video of that couple " Rappin for Jesus" this was probably their place
This is extraordinary. A Masterpiece, nobody goes there like you and shoots it like you. You Rock!
I did a quick search on WBOH - WBOH began broadcasting in 2002 and ceased broadcasting in 2010 (this puts a time of when that place became abandoned, at least 13 years ago.) WBOH was formally a shortwave radio station broadcasted from the Fundamental Broadcasting Network based from Newport, North Carolina. I'm not sure why those stack of decals are doing there, perhaps the coal mine was promoting the radio station? There's always questions about random objects just laying around in abandoned places.
Interesting find, much respect for 3 videos in one weekend, including the live. Chambersburg Mall was incredible as well, best intro rvrr. Thank you for being awesome
Dan Bell, the man who’s afraid of nothing and Dillon the comic relief ❤Thanks for another fun video of a place I’d never step foot in!

So glad to see you back. Bringing banging videos as always ❤
Can't sleep! Awesome to see a new video from you at the wee hours of the morning.
Hi Dan 😊 I was watching your other channel earlier, with all those people gathered around having fun 🎵🎶
Love those long drive videos too...
Trailer one would have been scale house/radio station which makes sense because they both would have heavily utilized shortwave radio.
From what I found: 5920 WBOH is out of Newport, NC-Grace Baptist Church radio-shut down in 2009 on shortwave radio.

So glad to see so many videos lately
I grew up in small Pentecostal/Assemblies of God churches. My Dad was in several southern Gospel bands and his favorite station was KJOJ, which was similar to this station, according to a quick Google check. This one hits me a little differently. Equal parts sad and interesting.
Hope you kept the bumper stickers
FYI.. "Long ling time" one of my favorite songs. 😁
This would be a good place to bring a drone to scope out the areas you can't access.
It's always interesting to see places like this in the middle of nowhere. Thanks Dan and Dillon ❤
Good morning 🌞 Dan, good to see another "Film It" video from you. You stay awesome. Stay safe and take care 🙏🤓🎥🎞️
I looked up the shortwave radio station, place might have only abandoned sense 2009. the mine could have gone under because of the 2008 economy collapse.
That was Satan's little tool shed at 10:40. I heard about it in a Led Zeppelin song. 😂
WV is a beautiful and tragic place.
this is more disturbing to me than a crack house.
I’d love to go through the old filing cabinets and tapes and just see what info was stored on them.
These films are the best
This is why Im here! Cheers, Dan! 🤗
Great video again, thanks for sharing.
Great video, what a fascinating place. I can imagine it all up and running with the hustle and bustle years ago. Lovely to see Dillon again too. ❤ xx
Missed the Dill!
"I guess Jesus didn't answer their prayers."
::wheeze:: 🤣
shut up 😠
boldly going where nobody should go! yall are so much fun
Nothing says Jesus like Pabst blue ribbon 😂😂😂
🤔
A church in a trailer, what will they think of next? A church in a coalmine?
🤫
🤠👍 Thanks Dan!
Much enjoyed.
those a holes would set up a trailer church at the truck stop, convince the stop to stop selling beer, then bother us truckers all day. Truly d bags
@@SuperRat420 truck drivers have no business drinking alcohol while operating a big truck 😠
My guess is the Mine was there first. Then a Ministry came later to use the site. Someone has Copper Mined the wire from those buildings.
Dan, do you ever take like little souvenirs or something from abandoned places you visit?.. just curious
I remember this! Great video
Why is there always walkers in abandoned buildings lol
I guess it's where walkers go to die and if it isn't a walker, it's a potty chair.
@ScumSpawn fugg yeah buddy
Dan nice work on this one❤ I truly that moss carpet lmao 😂 always a pleasure my friend. Keep em coming you always do an incredible job ❤
You know there was something in that wooden box… something bad…😮
Nah it's just a communion table
Awesome little explore, I would’ve stayed out way longer to look for more hidden little buildings though lol
Love you Dan ❤
Thanks Dan ,very interesting. Creepy.
Looks like you could use a good machete. :)
Thanks 👍👍👍
Cool,thanks for sharing📻
3:37
Toilet! :D
That station started broadcasting in 2002 and ceased operation in 2010. I guess the money ran out.
somebody above mentioned probably due to the 2008 recession
That's probably what happened. The crash of '08 ruined a lot things and a lot of people lost everything.
Don’t you worry about snakes, spiders etc Dan? Although I have lived in Australia my whole life where walking through bush like that will end up with a trip to the ER
Keep up the good work mate
hey marty. the time of year this was filmed was the cold season. no bugs or snakes. the warm season…i wouldn’t risk it. ticks, rattlesnakes, copperheads, black widow spiders. no sir.
@@DanBellFilmIt Don't forget the bees. We do not need a repeat swarm incident 😂
I feel like I could smell the staleness of those trailers
Was that "in remembrance of me" thing... a casket?
It's an altar for communion
geez…the ignorance of basic things 🤦♂️
I love it...Hello from Serbia 😊😊
Good stuff, Dan and Dillon.
4:13 tape duplicator
Hi Dan!
DAN! You have got to make a short movie with this footage. A mix between Blair Witch Project and Cabin in the Woods.
" The Christian cult got taken one by one from whatever is in the mine kind of vibe".
There might be some local myths you could use too.
I hope you see this and get some ideas.
We love and adore you dan, for what you do.
The cussing always makes me laugh.
Keep walking, youll end up in a wrong turn type of place.
Somebody really enjoyed mustard.
The road trips are good since staying at that apartment has been miserable. I havent been to the southern states or the east coast often Maine might be nice to vacation to.
Dan's Spook N' Snark Power Hour coming up next on WPOH...
The excessive amount of yellow mustard in these trailers is concerning lol
I haven't seen a baby swing like that since the early 90s.
I hope you took all the stickers. I want one!
We need more episodes of “another dirty room” please 🙏
Not happening anytime soon. It’s cancelled until further notice.
@@Mrskaylaxo I heard that Dan and Rick had a falling out. I miss them too.
Lmao shortwave christian radio. Probably had 6 listeners
there are more shortwave listeners than you realize….remember shortwave is worldwide
Two different abandoned mustard bottles, how tragic.
Hey Dan! If you're in WV Id love to meet ya one day been watching your videos for a long while now and have to say I am a pretty big fan!
Rupert, WV is in Greenbrier county...yikes. Isn't that where the Wrong Turn type of thing was? 🤣Be careful out there Dan and Dillon.
1:37 Remember, No Smoking! LOL
What a great set for a movie about two rugged tough men that do urbex and find where Buffalo Bill has been living and they have to put the lotion on and then after a few years of captivity use their amazing athletic abilities gained from decades in Baltimores toughest boxing gyms to crawl out of the mine to safety for the delight of youtube fans around the world!!! 😂🎉
Academy award winning, yep!
🤠👍
@@JohnShinn1960 red carpet, fancy suits, limos, gold chains, grail wristwatches, awards… it’s that Dan Bell lifestyle!
Such language in a church 😂
Yep it was a church alright. The church of PBR beer!😂
5:05 If you want to go down a REALLY deep rabbit hole, look who's broadcasting on 5920Khz now from Japan.
Why who's broadcasting from japan?
I would but idk what to google to find it lol
There sure is alot of overgrowth. I wonder how long this area has been abandoned for.
about 2009 or 2010 roughly. other people found that the radio station failed in 2009.
I looked up WBOH radio and it said it closed in 2013.
thats basically wv summed up in one trip, uneventful and disappointing
A church you could drink . P . B . R during the services.
Great language skills. So respectful. Not Dan Bell quality.
okay I've seen this before.........??
Very Cool Beans, Dan. Be cool to play a bit of the old tapes..... but just a bit 😇
The radio station and church really like mustard? lol
interesting place , looks like it has been abandoned for decades
BYOM Church . Bring Your Own Machete to enter .
i think the mine place was just promoting the radio station
Them squeal vibes
Better hope nobody there....
Go Dillon 😂❤
There's places you don't want to be in, West Virginia remember the movie Deliverance you don't want to squeal like a 🐷 LOL
That place really went to Hell. >Christian Radio Station
Dan needs to get a machete for bushes 😂
Looks like jesus Blessed them Good. That Equipment was very expensive. They had to do very good for themselves. They died of old age. The mine was all clear of trees when running, so they died 20-30 years ago. Then people came in broke in, ransacked everything, took what was worth selling. simple.
RABBIT! 8:50
CFN sucker lol right at the church steps lol😂😂😂😂😂
All this, and Jesus too! 🙏P. S. PLEEEAASEEE bring back Another Dirty Room! It helped me survive the pandemic (at fourth viewing).
a quick search on the Net showed me that Diamond Black opened in 1988, and closed in 2015. :) You're welcome. :)
