    I first saw these carriages back in 2010, they weren't vandalised, it looked like they'd only recently been abandoned. There was still a barbecue outside and a lean to shelter. The smaller carriage was locked up with other random camping gear inside.

    • @Alex.G
      @Alex.G  3 місяці тому +1

      Yes I remember the lean to, it was partly collapsed by the time I visited in 2015. I've been there once every couple of years since and it's since covid that the vandalism got out of control

    Just wow Alex......we felt the worst energy from NN, we did know of the worst abuse and even how the priest that was buried there got removed ( Im pretty sure you know who that is ) still good on you and Beau for going down such a massive rabbit hole only the brave and few can stomach :( I still would love to go and see the carriage after knowing what happened-and are you bringing out a part 2 ?

    • @Alex.G
      @Alex.G  2 місяці тому +2

      Thanks for the comment, I didn't hear about the priest being removed actually! So many secrets....on the whole I'm not sure what to think about the place. Pre 1900 it seems like their intentions were good, but I don't know...that's another cavern in the rabbit hole that could take a long time to reveal. I'd do a part two if I can get some more leads, I've been given a few ideas to perhaps explore deeper so I'll be doing some poking around!

    G'day Alex,
    Just reading through the comments. Its all been said. But let me just add my thoughts.
    So great to have you back on the tube. Your attention to detail is what i love about your work. If i only see one video a year, I know it will be the best video i will see that year. Although this video held some dark secrets, you didn't hide them. Exposing the truth will sometimes, always hurt someone. But it needs to be told. Let me finish by congratulating you and Beau on a great job. I will await your next installment with great anticipation...
    Cheers Mark... 12:20

    Sorry that first seemed like researching what could have been a whimsical story about carriages on the beach ended up being a dark story for you to tell. Being 50y/o and in Perth most of my life made me flinch when you mentioned New Norcia! If you're interested in some local history before New Norcia then I recommend George Fletcher Moore - diary of ten years eventful life... JR Gribble - Dark deeds in a sunny land

    Great video. I have read a bit into the horrific events that occurred at Bindoon & Tardun & did not realise that New Norcia was also heavily implicated in this. I have been to what is now called Bindoon Agricultural college. The road into the place creeped me out. I intend visiting New Norcia & Tardun in the near future. Some of those Christian brothers were evil bastards, not to mention the people that covered it up.

    • @Alex.G
      @Alex.G  3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah some of the worst of what I read came out of Tardun and Bindoon. The problem is that they moved them around. If a brother was found to have perpetrated this abuse, they usually told them to say a prayer and be forgiven. If it didn't stop they just moved them elsewhere and they just carried on their ways with a fresh set of victims

    I hope the break from UA-cam was good. Did you find Jesus? 😂 Looking forward to watching your new vid 👍🏾

      🤣 I've found a lot of things on my break that's for sure! Not quite found jesus yet, but some people in this video did, a long long time ago
