CGP Grey has duped us again.
He lured us in with a title about abandoned missile engines,
*but it was just another video about tumbleweeds!*
Well... the original title was ???. After the video started I expected a tumbleweed lab of sorts.
Lol. That thing look as notorious as what the video described
oh shucks!
:-D
I think he just put all those tumbleweeds there for effect.
using misdirection about “abandoned missile engine test site”, grey was able to make yet another video in the tumbleweed saga.
Plot twist: this is what inspired the tumbleweed research
Damn you two stole my comment
@@raprista4440 you should sue.
Don’t forget the “TESLA test drive vlog”as well👀
This comment tumbles me greatly...
0:50 "Yes sir I have NO IDEA how the Tesla rental got scratches all over the front end."
tutacat its a joke
r/wooosh
tutacat grey doesn’t own a car
@@NoahLoveladyAllen It's not a rental though. It's his friend's car.
@@NoahLoveladyAllen He picked up the car in the video from the airport after he FLEW IN from the EU/UK...
Probably a rental.
I never knew that The Trouble With Tumbleweed would get a live action remake.
tutacat the secret lab where tumbleweeds were created
*Disclaimer: This footage was found in an abandoned car, with the message 'it's the tumbleweed' scrawled over it*
From the new UA-cam series TumbleHornets
slyfan64 That is an esoteric reference
@@slyfan64 Hahahah I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought of MH!
I kept waiting for him to turn a corner, and see a tall, dark silhouette in the distance. All these years and seeing footage shot in this style still spoops the fuck out of me.
@@slyfan64 I was totally seeing a video of Marble Hornets in my mind too!
Is this the plot in reverse?
-Visits Tekoi and realizes how much of a nuisance tumbleweeds are.
-Goes to the tumbleweed research lab
-Makes a video about tumbleweed
Dag Erik Oterhals what will we see next, which caused him to visit the base...?
I want definitely want this to be true. And about a year from now, for us to find out whatever inspired the thing that inspired the thing that inspired the visit to the base. It's Grey's Cloud Atlas.
...or memento!
Time travel from the future or...AAAAHHH
@@timtjtim it's the Staten Island Museum, I just know it, somehow this is linked to the Staten Island Museum.
there’s something really funny about Grey pulling up to an abandoned missile test site and pulling out the key
Yah like the key
How did he get the key? I want to explore when I get to the US
@@jonasbirkelund He does mention in his "CGP Grey was wrong" video that TEKOI is private property on a reservation and so you can't just go there.
@@personwhoexists6104 Yes but .. how did he get the key?
@@THE-X-Force he asked at the reservation and they gave him access
"this cabinet does not contain classified information" is like hiding porn in a "homework" folder
It was probably meant more as an aid to the employees. i.e "Don't put classified information here."
@@RexTenomous that is absolutely what it means, when a government site is shut down or abandoned they copy and discard sensitive and classified documents. If government employees accidentally put classified documents in files not explicitly intended for such it would sorta ruin the point of them being classified. Though most of the tests done on this range were not terribly secret, there was even a high profile accidental explosion in the 70s. So the files here are most likely benign and others were most likely copied and purged. Such as the information prudent to the containment of nuclear waste on the range, (against the wishes of the reservation due to desises and other horrible effects from radiation exposure). High profile rocket development pre - minuteman. Engine tests for weapons and space development etc.
@@RexTenomous In addition to JohnnyCrash's comment, the government will send a team through all buildings that are being declassified/decommissioned by the teams of highly trained cleared employees. They scour every paper, poster, and other items left behind in the building to make sure nothing classified is left behind.
I guess this is how exploring locations in Fallout would be like in real life.
Tumbleweeds are what's missing from fallout.
I was thinking exactly the same.
Yep.... 20 minutes at a site and all I got was this worn file folder
@@saccaed pretty sure some of the random encounters in Fallout 1 and 2 have tumbleweeds.
If it was resident evil he would have to go back for a key
Plowing tumbleweeds with a Tesla to go look at spreadsheets in an underground bunker is peak 2020 Grey.
I wonder if taking one of those is somehow a felony. God knows I'd be tempted.
@@gustavosanabio473 Id be more tempted to remove one of those fire alarm racks with all the switches or some of the computers parts just to play with or even make my own museum at home
It's his way to make sure he is social distancing. XD
he had to step it up from losing his sanity over the ownership of staten island and *the barrels*
@@shealupkes One day he will return to Staten Island. The mystery can't hide forever.
I feel like CGP Grey lives in a dimension where tumbleweeds are a much bigger presence in everyday life than they are for us.
"I see dead plants"
-Grey, probably
For your next adventure, I suggest:
1. Gloves
2. Crowbar
Also either a Headlamp and/or a Head Camera. Having both hands free is invaluable. Having a few Glowsticks or Glow-in-the-Dark Chalk, or basically anything that glows by itself and isn't too influenced by the environment, is also useful to mark where you've been before when you get lost, especially if the area you explore is not broken up into smaller, independent sections (Like the small sheds and bunkers here) but a larger, more sprawling complex.
3. A hazmat suit
Gordon?
Blow torch and c4
a proper flashlight would be a start
5:36 That magazine 100% looks like a game designer placed it there for historical context.
Its freaking amazing how this gives off game vibes. Almost everything about this just feels like a game.
Jaden look up red matter on VR. It's basically this video but more futuristic
Looked up the cover and it's April, 1988.
1988/04/18
@@EwgenijBelzmann New Vegas, Hidden Valley, specifically.
"I found an alternate way, but I'm not going in."
Grey proves that he smarter than 90% of all horror protagonists.
*but*
that is not a high bar to clear
Yeah... namely because there is 0 guarentee that the air inside would be breathable. It's the same reason why anyone who goes spelunking in an unknown cave without any safety equipment is a fool, and a likely dead man.
Where is that quote came from?
I’d go in
FYI: That TIME magazine at 5:19 is from April 18, 1988 but in full color and pristine condition
Yea all the stuff in the file cabinets was pretty nice looking too.
he could have taken and sold them 😩
at least it now makes sense why some stuff in survival games look untouched 😂
Am I blind? I don't see a Time magazine anywhere.
@@NoriMori1992 it’s more around 5:37
@@kerstinschwarz5222 this is private property, they let him on here. It's not his to sell
Either those doors are rusted to the extreme, or CGP really is a stick figure
If you’re wondering why the board is in russian
“The Russian signage on the perimeter of the facility is due to the fact that this site was designated as "inspectable" for Russian inspectors as part of the START Treaty”
Thanks
hey thats what i said :D
And what does it tell?
@Vlad Mironov - no gambling here, this is a family-friendly nuclear arms site!
Thanks, I thought it was a site in Russia when I saw the sign and then was wondering why there are signs in English !?! How thoughtful of the Russians to place signs in English so Western spys can find the building they are looking for ...
Just want to say that if you come across abandoned disconnect switches like the ones at 3:52, DO NOT attempt to turn them on. On the off chance that power is present, an unmaintained disconnect can explode, spraying you with molten shrapnel and possibly killing you or injuring you very badly.
Sounds fun
This may or may not be relevant to my future endeavors
That switch he turned in the computer room's going to be a bitch for anyone who tries to recover it later too, there's a reason that was set to off when they main was already off.
The switch in the computer room at 5:58 was for an AC blower. Pushes the cold air under the floor to go up into the computer cabinets for cooling. Had one just like it for a FFS simulator I used to work on.
This sign : *exist*
Grey : ha ha switches makes B R R R R R R
Whilst watching this two thoughts came to mind:
1) Why are you here?
2) Why is nobody else?
1) Because it’s abandoned
2) Because it’s abandoned
2) because it is in the middle of nowhere and teenagers don't want to drive so far to drink a few beers.
my main question is why not bring backup? like a friend to have sit in the car and save you if it reaches X time with no contact
My biggest (well actually only) question is "why was the gate locked with a lock that he had a key to?" like did he get permission from the property owner, I guess? who is the property owner?
@@MsHojat I would suspect he removed the original padlock with a tool and then used his own to re-lock the gate and then film him unlocking it for the effect? Although knowing what CGP did he might as well have dug deep enough to track an owner or someone with a key
6:38 I saw that and was like "that's a front, there's a storm coming in". Skip to 14:25 - Grey looks at the darkened sky and says "ooh there's a storm coming in". Made my day.
"This cabinet does not contain classified information."
Grey: I think it does
That's where I would hide my porn
NICE TRY, CABINET! I know your tricks...
To really deter people from opening that, they should've written - "This Cabinet contains Classified Information, About Yo MAMA"
Plot Twist: This is actually a prequel to the whole tumbleweed saga.
Eduardo Pescador idk man that’s sound like a solid theory
That actually makes complete sense.
CGP Grey "God damn these tumbleweeds"
I just assumed that was the main point of the video.
I wouldn't call this a plot twist.
New Hardcore Henry looks good!
First o reply on a verified account pog
13:36 - imagine turning to look at the door just as someone close it from the outside. They don't want whatever is dormant inside come out.
Bruh why you gotta give me nightmares like that :(
Video: *begins*
Everyone: *realizes where the motivation for his tumbleweed video came from*
Yeah, immediately thought that.
We scratched all of his cars paintwork on that move lmao
XD
Was it recorded before the tumbleweed one?
@@appleslover Presumably, but maybe not.

I know you are joking but this footage was recorded in 2019. He talked about it in one of the two podcasts.
Since I had to look it up. "Russian signage on the perimeter of the facility is due to the fact that this site was designated as "inspectable" for Russian inspectors as part of the START Treaty"
Thank you. =-)
Thanks, I was like "maybe this is in Russian soil after the end of the USSR or something?" but by the end of the video I was sure that wasn't it - so it's great someone wondered that one too!
Thanks was about to ask about that. Was real confused for a second cause of the tumbleweeds and a russian sign followed by journal in english)
Oh I was thinking something along the lines of "If you can read this, GTFO of here" :p
I was really confused by that sign. Thanks for clearing it up.
Hold up is this just a random abandoned place exploration video?
So, might be a stupid question but how did he get the key for the gate?
Maybe masterlock keys are universal?
@@noahtackett6264 0:22 See how new the lock looks? He probably locked the gate himself. My question is why?
Edit: The lock is 100% new. The lock is not on the place where the gate lock is supposed to be, it's just on the gate side.
@@valtteriwikstrom9932 Nah. The current owner probably put that on, and he asked for permission to go in, and got the key from the owner.
We need an answer to this grey! (Lol i commented this question myself and then looked for the answer, i wish we'll get to see an update/answer soon)
In the main video, he said the the land was leased by Hercules and when that expired, the land reverted back to the Native American tribe that owned it as part of their reservation. So presumably, he got the key from them after asking for permission to visit the site

"This cabinet does not contain classified files"
That's exactly what a cabinet with classified files would say
exactly
I think it's more like instructions. Like telling people not to put classified information in it because it's not secure enough.
Cabinets don't talk
@@ArthurKhazbs Sure, labels don't talk, but they do tell. Telling means the act of communicating information, which is distinct from talking, a strictly verbal subset of such.
Arthur Khazbs that’s exactly what a cabinet would say
This felt like the start of a horror game:
Russian sign: check
Dark bunkers: check
1950's technology: check
"It's getting dark out": check
"A storms coming": check
"My car is moving at the horizon"
Don't forget the foreboding hawk screeches!
this should have like a locked bunker that once Grey opens, he discovers a network of tunnels dug out of the earth.
then in those tunnels are crazed mutated abhuman cannibals that have survived by eating moles and earthworms :D
Get out of here, Stalker.
an obnoxious number of tumbleweeds: check
“JFC, This is creeping me out, too many things moving around in the dark.”
Every Horror Movie Protagonists: Stays

OK, but what *was* this place? ua-cam.com/video/PCeMCwxayp0/v-deo.htmlrel=0
The sign in Russian:

THE FOLLOWING OBJECTS ARE PROHIBITED IN THE FACILITY:
MATCHES, LIGHTERS, AND OTHER FLAME-PRODUCING OBJECTS, FIREARMS, AMMO, GAMBLING EQUIPMENT, CAMERAS, DRUGS, AND ALCOHOLIC [misspelled] BEVERAGES.
[Somewhat funny thing is that we don't use the Oxford comma in Russian, but there it is.]
Edit: spelling.
Many thanks man! I was actually wondering what was written there
now the real question is:
Why was it there? In russian?
@@Fabelaz So that the spies would know how to behave. Can't expect a foreigner to just know.
@@Fabelaz
Не имею представления
The usage of "Oxford comma" in Russian would be redundant, since ambiguity that it supposed to resolve can't exist in Russian. So, yeah, while it's a helpful thing in English, it's pretty much useless in Russian.
"Let's get outta here"
Tumbleweeds locks the door.

Think about it, a man who knows science is exploring an abandoned missile testing site. The site seems to be long-abandoned, but it's suspicious that there's still a large number of abandoned objects and machinery. He's running around trying to find some sort of secret while a storm is starting to roll in. This is the plot of at least 3 horror movies and a handful of SCPs
I feel like I’m watching the highest-resolution survival horror game let’s play in existence
Lol same especially when he said "there has to be another way in" at the locked bunker door

Its a horror survival when ever you are in Russia
that's the teaser for Outlast 3
“This cabinet does not contain classified information”
Sounds like something Aperture Science would hace
In reality, it is supposed to help people who are looking for stuff.
If you know you can't look at classified material then you can feel safe looking in that cabinet without getting in trouble.
The US military industrial complex is very similar to aperture in corporate culture tbh
The air ducts are NOT some sort of secret passage. They are how we move air about the facility.
I've worked in similar facilities as those, everything is labeled and sorted and stored into appropriate security containers. It looks like a test facility for ICBM engines.
opens cabinet
more tumbleweed
well, not really, but that would have been funny xD
9:26 Smart, very smart move. I immediately got uneasy seeing that and thinking about my confined space hazards training.
Man, when you do things like these, you really need to wear gloves
And maybe bring a proper flashlight next time.
I agree with you, but I have a question. Outside of general cuts/gashes and the potential infections that come from rust or cuts in general, is there any other reason to where them?
Frankbrooo more grip, doesn’t hurt your hands as much to put more force into things
Frankbrooo. Electricity. That switch that he pushed at 3:55 could have short circuited and electrical shock would either kill him or leave him for dead and he would die before anybody found him. Rubber gloves will prevent that from happening.

CGP Grey seemed like the most unlikely UA-camr to get into urban exploration but somehow it makes sense
As an electrician, watching Grey continually attempt to flip random switches and breakers in this ancient facility was a special kind of frightening.
I was just waiting for there to be several clanks of increasing loudness and then a distant explosion. If it's not clear I have no idea how electrical wiring works, but I can dream.
Gray: Yes, let me mess with the main breaker which if operated could either not work... ooor connect you to like couple kV of voltage since the insulating oil or something leaked out long ago.
If any of that were dangerous and or deadly you'd know because there would probably already be a dead body there. He's not gonna be the first person to visit there and mess with stuff.

Seriously this is better than most anything. I have come across similar locations to peruse the state of things past, and afterwards marveled at how times have changed and some things relegated to the sands of time until repurposed.
My second experience in this was the most memorable, with a psychiatric center abandoned in Roswell. I found a way inside and managed to find documentation recording various medical practices and results for patients long passed long past and long forgotten.
It's kind of like peering into another world, the same way you experience a book or game that successfully sucks you in to the labyrinth of knowledge within, taunting and daring you to seek and learn more, but always hiding the truth just a few steps away.
CGP Grey: The Walking Simulator! 😄 Seriously though, a very well put together video. I had no idea what was going on in this video, but it was still interesting and also oddly calming...? Is that just me?

"when I flip a switch, I want to know it." Totally agree with you
Hear hear.
Give me *robust* stuff.
*jumping on the hypetrain
My university was still using ancient equipment for its intro-level physics labs when I took them (although they may have updated it a couple years ago at the same time they were updating the chemistry lab equipment), and I gotta say, I'm kind of a fan of old-school, '80's and prior switches and knobs that make a really satisfying "click" whenever you flip/turn them.
Also, the fact that they were still using lab equipment from the '80's tells you something about the quality of construction, doesn't it?
@@maddie9602 yea these days we don't build things to last anymore ):
What a shame that it is NOT A FUCKING SWITCH.
The Russian sign translates to:
"Conditions to stay on the facility
Following items prohibited at the facility:
Matches, lighters and other flame-producing objects, firearms, gunshot weapons, ammunition, items for gambling, cameras, drugs and alcoholic drinks."
Matsu Crunch i think we have a problem with camera’s not to sure though
A russian sign prohibiting alcoholic drinks? That can't be true.
What I wanna know is why it was even a Russian sign at all. This is in Utah no?
@@Ivan2294 It has to do with START I and II treaties, which stipulate that the US and Russia can send inspectors to each country to verify that the number of nuclear weapons do not exceed agreed upon numbers. Since Tekoi was a missile test range, it would of had Russian START inspectors visiting to ensure that the missile tests did not result in new nuclear ICBMs above the maximum nor that the tests were facilitating anti-ICBM missiles that would give the US a nuclear deterrent advantage. So it make sense that there would be signs in Russian to notify them of rules specific to the location. When I was stationed at Minot AFB as a Security Forces officer, there was about one or two visits a year from Russian inspectors to look over the ICBM sites and nuclear cruise missiles to verify the numbers of weapons matched what we reported. We didn't have these signs as we usually had interpreters available.
@@C4CHopeless thanks man. I'm Russian and It was interesting to read.
This is my literal dream, to go explore abandoned areas. How'd you get to explore this place freely?
This is the trailer to Half Life: Tekoi
I guess Grey is still in his crusade against the tumbleweeds
Purge the tumbles with fire. Nuclear fire. It's the only way to be sure.
So, tumbleweed, we meet again.
He puts the paperwork back exactly where he finds it. That speaks to me on a spiritual level
I would have throwed that shit on the ground haha
@@hanih1668 Maronites are chaotic supremacist creatures.
I would have done the same thing, only I'd probably have taken some pictures to read latter what was in them.
But he didn't turn the switches back off ... :(
I would've wanted to take it, to be honest
AAAARGH - when the dogs are parallel to the door edge its unlocked!!111!!
I am genuinely terrified by the way Grey just intermittently slows down and stops in the Strategy Hall. He knows how horror movies work, and so do I, making both of our experience more heart-stopping.
Ok from now on your stick figure has to wear that hat when he's outdoors.
'tis a very fine hat
Beautiful idea
Very handsome!
He did! I cant remember where though...
Yessssss
Plot twist, this is actually a Post-Apocalyptic Alternate Reality Game where Grey is a survivor of a new species of tumbleweed that destroyed most of human civilization.
Whata damn good and super realistic graphic game then. I don't often buy games but I would for sur buy this one
That'd be cool
so, the same species then
Would be a nice setting for an escape room. Well, an escape site.
@@dinamosflams That's not what an AR game is. It's basically a roleplay.
That the log was still in that starting office... wow
The things I probably would've taken from there just for the recording purposes... SO many interesting things.
My cousin in national guard, and he found the old firing tables for XM (experimental munition) for the nuclear artillery round. He got to keep that one, and the guy that found the napalm tables... was quite jealous. I've literally seen first hand the firing tables used for the experimental nuclear artillery round first hand.
So comparing that experience with the documents you found, is incredible!
I watched the live stream. CGP Grey put the title as “❓” so obviously everyone was confused, u can tell by the live chat.
Alternative title: CGP Grey slowly devolves into madness as all he can still think of is tumbleweed so he ends up trespassing into an abandoned tumbleweed research lab to become one with the tumbleweeds
Can you really trespass if you're given the key?
Stolen from the first search result: Tekoi test range is a cold war era facility built in Utah's west desert near Dugway Proving Grounds. This facility was designated inspectable as part of the START treaty with the Soviet Union. This was a treaty to reduce the number of strategic ballistic missiles and heavy bombers and their nuclear warheads. Constructed by Hercules Inc. in 1976, this facility was designed to test high explosive and combustible materials for rocket fuel.
@@boldCactuslad oh my god I think we're onto something, this might be a massive conspiracy
maybe tumbleweeds are actually radioactive missiles!
oh yeah it's all coming together
Watching this a second time, I'm convinced this happened on the Summer of Grey. On his way to Moab. The Tesla is blue, and he calls it "her", also worried about losing her. Bailey Blue! This is just off the loneliest road in America, on way to Moab from Nevada. Even his hat is the same as the shadow in Moab...
Your assumption sounds perfectly reasonable but this is a Tesla Model 3, not the Tesla Model X he was driving in the video you were talking about.
The testing facility is in Utah.
Whatever Tesla it is, it's probably scratched all to hell after pushing through those tumbleweeds :(
Lesh4537 so is Moab.

4:57 "They have taken the bridge, and the second hall. We have barred the gates but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes. Tumbles, tumbles, in the deep. We cannot get out. A shadow moves in the dark. We cannot get out. They are coming..."
*drumming intesifies*
What's that from?
NoriMori The quote is modified quote of the book Lord of the Rings written by J. R. R. Tolkien (the scene in question being when the wizard Gandalf read an old book/diary/last will and testament sort of thing written by dwarves who had temporarily survived goblin assaults; they’d written the entry shortly before they were apparently overwhelmed and slaughtered by goblins, given their corpses were strewn everywhere). The second is a meme variant of what happens in the book immediately thereafter - the party of adventurers led by Gandalf heard the goblin war drums begin. Hope that helps!
@@Tacticslion +1 except... orcs, not goblins. This stuff is important!
@@jonathanrichards593 Same thing in Tolkein's books, the terms were used interchangeably. Seems like he started with calling them goblins in the Hobbit, but changed his mind for LotR and decided he liked Orc better so he made it a dialect thing or something.

I got that reference!
I don't get the reference, but that was a CRAC unit, right?

The site is fascinating. But wow, that view, and the view of the storm approaching - beyond glorious.

Your party enters a small hallway, ending in a door. The door is large, and made of metal. The frame bolted to the concrete wall behind it. There is a sign identifying it as "Equipment bunker #1" and a faded sign cautioning for the use of eye protection. To the right appears to be some kind of tank with a machine on top of it. There are many pipes and wires running into and along the wall between the machines.
The door has a steel pull handle, and 8 Rusted levers positioned around the edges.
The one on the bottom and three levers on the left are positioned at around 2 o'clock. The one up top is positioned around 4 o'clock The three on the Right are positioned at around 10 o'clock.
What would you like to do?
I probably said this already but at 1:34 seeing all that wasted effort on log books make me realise how much of my life was spent filling out useless CQ log sheets that nobody every saw ever
Grey walks up to padlocked gate:
"This crazy cat is about to bust out some bolt cutters?!?!?!"
Grey pulls out a key:
"Of course he did."
I mean, it's a masterlock. You can open it by staring maliciously at it.
In my head I heard: "What I have for you today is this Masterlock padlock".
I might be mixing up my UA-camrs.
Was expecting a "this is the lockpinglawyer and what i have for you today is a missile test range ...."

"The flaw in security here are inexcusable "
