      I THOUGHT thats how youtubers get paid. isnt it a good thing if you have commercials. I dont mind them. I just skip them. lol I was wondering if you guys were going to find this little town...SOOOO CUTE ESPECIALLY IF YOU SEE THE BABIES>

    I grew up not far from here in Kingman. It was great to get away from it all and see this ghost town. On the road to it, we'd see ancient building ruins and this cool car that crashed in the hills from the 1960s. The burros were fun to see. We went hiking the desert mountains around there and they followed us and showed us the best trails through bushes and such. The old hotel was where Clark Gable had his honeymoon. There's a bar there inside a cave. It's a really cool town. Love this video! Be safe in the heat. We moved to Oregon cause it made me have lots of seizures. If you like this place, make Ghost Towns everywhere in the world your plan. Oregon and California have tons, too. Not too far from Oatman is Tombstone (like in the movies) and Bisbee and then Safford which is a lovely Army ghost town. I really want to go back to Arizona.

    Would appreciate it if you guys could do videos of the campgrounds around the smokies. Hardly any good videos on UA-cam on the subject. Most of the videos seem geared more towards RV's and campers. Barely touch on tent sites. I know there are a good amount of riverfront tent sites in the park...they should be highlighted and shared. I'll be at koa in Townsend late October. I'm gonna throw together one for there. 3 great tent sites on the river people should know about.

The real bike is in the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, IA. The one in your video isn't an exact replica either, which can be easily spotted when you become well acquainted with the original. That movie became such a huge cult classic and the bike as well, resulting in thousands of clones and semi-clones created in it's wake.

    DON'T GO! I'd give this place zero stars if I could.
    Oatman is full of bigots and racists. Absolutely horrible backwater little nothing place in the middle of nowhere. The trip started out great but quickly went downhill. The "locals" are horrible people...one followed me and took photos of my butt.
    We took our dog with us and there were at least 8 or 9 other dogs as well. The "people in charge " targeted me and my family and followed us around the park telling us to keep our dog away from the donkeys...which we were. We know the donkeys are wild and unpredictable.
    One of the "people in charge" said it again (this was time number 8). I said thank you but we understand and will watch her and it's not necessary to keep saying it.
    She gets rude and threatens me and threatens to "lock me up because I'm a threat and so is my dog"
    How either myself or my small dog are threats I have no clue. We were simply enjoying our walk. (I'd like to add that a little girl was with her family nearby and was FEEDING THE DONKEYS HOT CHEETOS IN FRONT OF THESE PEOPLE. The "people in charge did nothing)
    A donky gets spooked by one of the locals and moves towards me. The woman who threatened me "cheers" for the donkey to keep going and attack my dog. (My dog was over 7 feet away with my dad.)
    This town if full of toxic people with no redeeming qualities.
    Absolutely the worst place to visit.
