      @@jeremiahallyn4603 The official explanation that we Hoosiers are taught in Indiana History class in school is.....nobody knows for sure! Apparently, the oldest written references found of the term Hoosier in 200+ yr old newspapers and books merely refers to people from Indiana as Hoosiers, but doesn't explain WHY. The story that it means "hill dwellers" doesn't make much sense, since the only hills of any height are in southern IN; the rest of the state is flat. There are way bigger hills in KY to the south, and it was settled before IN, so if it means "hill dwellers," why weren't Kentuckians called Hoosiers? It's a mystery.

    I am actually floored by this. I'm a Hoosier from Gary and I have been to every corner of the state from Michigan City, to Lafayette, Bloomington, Evansville and I currently live in Indianapolis. And this was such an honest and true, well researched and presented take on a state most people relate to Corn, Racing, the KKK and Meth. Indiana is so much more, and I'm gald you visited the Indiana dunes park. I grew up right on the shores of lake Michigan. So seriously for all Hoosiers, Thank you
    Edit: Also I was told back in grade school that "Hoosier" came from the "who's 'ere" folk anecdote

Also, Indiana is cheap compared to Illinios for ovious reasons, idk how it being cheap makes it bad.

The "Hoosiers means hill dwellers" explanation only applies to the southern part of the state where the only significant hills are, as the rest of the state is flat.

I'm from the UK but have been to Indianapolis a few times to see a friend who lived there and go to the US F1 Grand Prix (when it was hosted there), so a while back. I either drove or flew down from Chicago and from what I saw and the stereotype of the state I always thought that it was very flat, consisting of fields of corn as far as the eye could see so it's great to get a fuller picture of what all the areas of the state I didn't see were like, and to be quite honest I'm astounded how wrong I was. Great video, it's to a beautiful state with diversity of landscapes and geography that I never knew existed so thanks for challenging stereotypes if nothing else. A very well presented video and I look forward to Mississippi, which I know very little about.

    The Indiana Dunes used to extend westward thru Gary, East Chicago and Hammond but were leveled off and used as fill to create sites for the industrial plants and cities. The largest sand dune was next to Michigan City. It was once covered with trees and grass then became bare after the trees were cut for firewood and overgrazed by cattle. Now the city was being buried by blown sand so they allowed Ball Glass to start mining the sand due to being ideal for glassmaking. It made a light blue glass so the Ball canning jars became known as Ball Blues. More glass companies came in to mine the sand so didn't take all that long before the small mountain was reduced to a giant flat sandy section of land. A big coal-fired electric generation plant was built there to supply current for the growing industries to the west.
    Lake County holds Hammond, Gary and East Chicago. To the south it borders Newton County where there's a stone quarry inside an ancient meteor crater. The crater was larger but was reduced in size as the glaciers bulldozed their way south. The layers of stone used to be in horizontal layers several thousand feet underground but were found to be vertical once the mining operation exposed them.
    Northwest Indiana had nothing going on until after the Great Chicago Fire. The city leaders decide to direct all new dangerous and smelly industries to build on the unpopulated southeast side so speculators snapped up the cheap land to sell for high prices. The businesses looked across the state line to see the same swampy land was available for dirt cheap so built there instead.

    One thing I will say: the northern two thirds aren’t flat everywhere. Along the Wabash and the rivers that feed into it, particularly in northern Indiana, it’s very hilly. The Missisiniwa and Salamonie are very close together so their valleys keep that part of the state largely wooded and rolling. In fact a lot of the eastern side of the state, a county or two in at the very least, is rolling. And the same is true of the northeastern corner and Lake District, running from around Marion (and east and north) to the northern and eastern borders. And it’s hilly up the west side of the state everywhere the Wabash goes, only getting more prairie-like north of Lafayette. There *are* places in the east where it’s flat, but it’s not around so many rivers and lakes. It is such a surprise when I take people around Indiana who are from out of state, or who have only visited Indy by traveling through the flattest part of the state from Chicago.

      I for one am glad the state finally went on Daylight Savings Time. I appreciate the extra hour of daylight in the evening.

    Lucas McCain (Chuck Connors) of early tv's "The Rifleman" was a lieutenant in the 19th Indiana Infantry Regiment. Real was the WW II story of the sinking of USS Indianapolis. Quint of the movie "Jaws" however had his own version of what happened. Then there was Indiana Jones. The first time I ever heard of Muncie was while I was watching "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."

      Yeah, it was funny to Hoosiers that in the movie "Close Encounters" that Richard Dreyfuss' character almost drove his vehicle off a big cliff while chasing a UFO. No cliffs that size anywhere near Muncie ---central Indiana is flat! Doesn't get hilly until about Bloomington in the southern part of the state.

      Indiana Jones was named after George Lucas’ dog, but the dog may have been named after the state. That’s why there’s a joke in The Last Crusade about Indy taking his nickname from his dog.

    Born and raised in New Castle Indiana. Home of the worlds largest and finest highschool gymnasium and the Indiana Basketball hall of fame. Another overlooked blessing for Indiana is its whitetail and wild turkey hunting opportunity.

    Born and raised in NWI I would personally extend the what you are calling the Chicago suburbs all the way to Michigan City since we have a commuter rail called the south shore that goes along the lake all the way to Chicago. Also Amy coney Barrett is from south bend. Orville Redenbacher had a large influence over Valparaiso as well as taught at Valparaiso University.

      @@DakotahMiskus To the best of my knowledge based on TV/video. There's several local commuters still operating, a long haul passenger system it is the last still operating. I lived block away from the Carroll Ave. yard in Michigan City. Rode to several Cubs games and took a trip with my mom to Marshall Field's I can barely remember on that train. Every day part of life watching it roll right though town literally.
