- Hurricane Katrina was a devastating Category 5 Atlantic hurricane that resulted in 1,833 fatalities and caused damage estimated between $97.4 billion to $145.5 billion, It is the costliest hurricane to ever hit the United States, surpassing the record previously held by Hurricane Andrew from 1992.
The city of New Orleans was hit the hardest. The loss of life and property damage was heightened by breaks in the levees that separate New Orleans from Lake Pontchartrain. At least 80% of New Orleans was under flood waters on August 31st 2005.
Many people who chose or couldn't leave stayed behind and took shelter in the super dome where many thought it would become a safe haven
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin had ordered a mandatory evacuation of the city the previous day and an estimated 1.2 million people left ahead of the storm. However, tens of thousands of residents could not or would not leave.
Thousands of people were trapped in their homes, businesses, and even hospitals. Rescue attempts were slow and it took days for the people of New Orleans to see their first signs of hope.
As a result from the devastation of Katrina many properties throughout New Orleans were beyond repair, such as it’s six flags park. The park closed just days before the storm only to never open again, where it has sat abandoned for the last 18 years.
The park sits right next to lake Pontchartrain and was completely submerged underwater. 3 weeks after the storm the park was still submerged in 7-8 feet of water.
When the water was finally drained out, the damages were shocking. The water had eaten through buildings, left severe rusting, fried all the electronics,
And six flags inspectors deemed the park was 80% demolished due to the storm damage.
As of 2023 redevelopment and demolition plans have been approved but all previous attempts to save the park failed. who knows what is going to happen to this park in the future.
Come venture with my friends and I to see what’s been left behind

9:16 That was not a Joker ride. That was a custom dark-ride built by Sally Dark Rides called "Jocco's Mardi Gras Madness"
This was hilarious to watch 😂
wish you would have been caught by Security THAT would have been the highlight of the video
you ain’t wrong but i ain’t tryna get that trespassing charge nor a gun to my face, go watch my friend bryan’s video over on the proper people channel, they were held at gun point here.
Cool exploration! I heard Security here is very aggressive. Glad you made it out ok.
They are. The guys from the channel The Proper People got caught by a security guard here and he pointed a gun at them.
@@grimdarkAngel yep I saw.
Yes they are which is what kept me so anxious this whole explore, I’ve had friends get arrested here and my friends Bryan and Micheal have a video where security even pulled a gun on them you should go check that out on the proper people

hey, first off I love your UA-cam videos the cinematics are just awesome. I wanted to get in contact with you, as a youtuber myself I’d like to make a documentary on six flags and was wondering if I could use clips from your video and credit you of course. Hope you get to see this, been subbed for a longtime aswell! Take care.
As long as my name is tagged on the clips and my name is credited in the description then sure
