Glad we could be a part of this find 🔎
Thanks for the amazing platform that brings us to these cool places!
Note some things can be under the dirt
Old cyanide dump, leaching pool 🤔
the legend themselves
is this the oficial
Old Water Storage Pumping House and down hill sloped trench for water pipelines to the Ready-mix Concrete Plant in Sloan. Removed whin on site well was put in Sloan. Was up and running when Las Vegas was under construction 1940s - 1960s.
Bingo!
This comment should be pinned.👍
Nope, impossible... That stretch of railroad was completed in 1906 and runs over the "trench"... Also the rock walls inside the hole are fossilized, they've been exposed forever. This is a prehistoric meteor strike that was recently excavated. Another thing is that historical aerial imagery shows this hole and tail but no concrete plant in 1965.
@@user-ct8hj1dt4z Yahttzee!
@david-evans22 you literally have other people in the comments who live near Sloan telling you what it was. And you're convinced a meteor did this?😂 meteors don't roll on the ground... and zig left and right... they smash and splatter... There wasn't a well near Sloane, there was a well up near the mine, they ran a big pipe down to the town, they built a well in town, they took the pipe away....
The old building was a water reservoir and the cut was for the pope to Sloan Limestone Quarry to the south and looks like around 1970-80.
Oh, see, here you go, that fits perfectly. I just figured it was an old collapse mine.
That trench is definitely an excavation, you can tell by the dirt piled up away from the sides.
what was the Pope doing there?
@@jdd1777 That was pretty funny.😊
@@jdd1777running out of followers/donors so Frank decided to do some prospecting…
Have you folks seen Tremors the movie 🍿?
It's what is left of Burts Bunker and the Graboid trail leading to it 😂!
@@kypparmstrong2775 LMFAO!!!!
I was thinking the same 😂
You beat me to it.
yeah the first one even set in Nevada. Really cool movie. Those creatures are dope and give me chills.
I feel like Joe Dirt when he got the boeing bomb appraised
😂
Lol
You see the peanut that could be a space peanut😅
Haha! A giant piece of poopy!
Bro, the adventure is what counts. Give us more! Make us think/speculate/guess/stumble/err and laugh while doing it.
looks like a pipeline for the "water tank" that you saw
The “building” is a water tank
Great exploring in the desert. Cool finds!
Congratulations on 40,000. 🎉
Thank you!
Remains of Warehouse 13 after the TV show was terminated.
if you look close enough, its a trench that leads back to American Eagle Ready-Mix Sloan Plant.
I'm not sure if youre serious if they are related but it sure does align quite well and would make a lot of sense..
That was my assessment as well and this helps validate it. Good eye.
Not a crash site, that isn't how impact ejecta lays out, shallow impacts of this angle would just reflect off hard surfaces. The piles on the sides indicate it was dug out. The line is very straight at the start, but it does curve in smooth long curves as if made for a railway line which ends at ' Southern Nevada Paving '. edit: Followed a line I found going east from that point, it is no longer followable once it hits ' W Cactus Ave ' almost 4miles away. Looks very much like a dig out for an old small railway. On google Earth older images the line continues to an intersection of ' Blue Diamond Hwy ' and ' Hualapaui Way '
In 1965 on the Historic Aerials map, the paving company wasn't there but the site in the video was. Doesn't look like that's what it was for if it was man made.
You're right on the money, imo.
To add to the impact facts, a meteor impact at a shallow angel would have left an oval shaped crater. Not something that looks like it was dug out.
It was a water pumping station and pipeline for the concrete plant in Sloan that was shut down (and all the metal scrapped) when a new pump well built on factory grounds made this distant one redundant at some point in the 60s.
That is where Superman's capsule came to rest
I agree with the water storage facility. The dirt/gravel looks like it was dug by hand. Thank you for sharing. The road sure got nuts. Stay safe out there everyone 😊
@15:10 The first thing that popped into my head when I saw that cactus or whatever type of desert plant that is was, ohh look it's the Statue of Liberty...lol
Thoroughly enjoyed, take care too buddy.
That was a fun one! I love a mystery!
VERY VERY STRANGE,,GOOD FIND,THANK YOU
It looks like a gold mine to me 👍💚💛❤️
I wish you had your truck since you're always on the bike now$$$$. Cool video hope you have a wonderful weekend 🌞
Keeps him in shape!
@@Vespyr_ In shape?? It's motorized... He's in pretty good shape already though, more so than my old ass, at least.
@@Vespyr_ it is electric... and those trails really rattle your bones... so, not quite :)
I have seen similar abandoned water systems made for railroads back when locomotives were steam powered. The ditch may be the pipeline trench to/from the railroad siding at Sloan where there was a well that produced low quantities of water.
Don't feel stupid, that's what it looked like on google earth, and it is odd, and i think you're right, it could've been a meteor ❤❤❤🙂👍🦘🇦🇺🦘.
Glad you put safty measures in place.
I agree with the old rail line. I believe it may have served the Blue Diamond Gypsum Mine before it was rerouted.
People are saying it's a water flow but the hole is undercut into rock and just ends at a rock face 5:43 There are no tooling marks from man, it's too clean for TNT and water isn't doing that. I would say a prehistoric meteor strike.
The only objective known to man that could cause this is one known as the super man. The building was a holding area while he recovered from kryptonite toxicity. I affirm.
You've been exposed to too much hollywood slop, meteor impacts are always circular no matter what angle they impact at.
Yo, how the actual meteor, if it was one, has skimmed the ground and as the guys said, turned, curved and moved across the landscape.. it kinda doesn’t make any sense. Sure a water line would make sense, if the age of erosion wasn’t apart and clearly visible, how it is here. It’s so odd, I’ve got no clue, other than the examples given.. maybe some geological movement or instability, release of pressure; now the water flow idea could just be the one on the nose. Just it’s all kinda abrupt, oddly placed and old; like is it older than 20 years, yeah; 40, yeah. 60? Hmmm, it’s a head scratcher because things kinda stick out, and other things don’t, such as the entire structure, suddenly stopping, also the ejecta is spread about the place like it could’ve been put there or shifted n lifted rather quickly, more instantaneously.. If the guy could source down local government plans or company’s that existed in that area, to background check, that would be interesting and helpful. It would be even more beneficial, if there’s some local news paper, that may talk about some sorta action that was happening or take out, by that way. I do believe that with this is.. it’ll be terrestrial but, could be E.T.
Dude like 3 comments above lives there and was living there while it was in use told you exactly what it was and you're still talking about it's a meteor strike. Wow man, just fkng wow..,..
You will find a water tank and a stream bed created by water overflowing the tank & flowing downhill. Probably from an old mine. If you dug out the bottom of the tank you would find an inlet & outlet.
Makes me the think of Einsteins thought experiment of riding a beam, well done, I feel like I have rode in on the object ❤
You need magnet to see if there is magnetic rocks.
The wood post with the rocks around its base: that is a mining claim.
Superman has arrived look for the Kent’s house some where near by. 😂😂😂
Looks like a drift mine
That was a really cool video! I read in your comments that you should scan the area with a metal detector. That is a really good idea and might help solve the mystery because meteors are made up of iron. I have a few metal detectors if you want to check it out.
Wouldn’t be a meteor, it wouldn’t dig out that path and put a pile on one side, it would hit and be short dig, if skimming the top it wouldn’t dig it would make a dent and fly out further away from the trajectory speed. Look almost like a tractor was moving backward digging a trench placing soil on the side as it went
Geologist will know what this is. You need one of them those guys
It’s all man made for water …
It is some kind of very old man made structure. You can see the stacked block that thing is huge. This is the true old world
I totally agree 💯. Old world building. They are everywhere if you dig down into the ground in a lot of places. IMO.
Meteors travel at very high speed, when they contact the ground they explode instantly, they don't carve trenches. The contact explosions are all circular craters.
I have a big trek ahead of my on my electric bicycle.. Ancestors shaking they're heads, lol.
I agree with the others, it’s some sort of mine.
Fascinating. I hope someone can confirm what it is. Let us know please. Thank you William.☮️💖🎶
It almost looks like an old plumbing trench. And that building may have been used to store water so if it points towards anything significant like an old foundation then that’s what I would guess. But meteor sounds cool, I’d be metal detecting or have a strong magnet on stick
Great what if but I'm going with the water storage and pipe line.
I say you're right, it was a meteor but was excavated. Hence the abandoned building
Thank you, I feel like at this point comments are getting regurgitated. If you really watch when he's exploring the hole, it's dead on an ancient meteor strike that was unearthed.
Uneducated people are hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣
@@NewAmericanRevolutionUneducated? Did you watch the whole video or are you just regurgitating comments? There are literally burms where the object curved on it's path... It fought gravity and lost on the slope where it ended at a rock face.... There's 5 feet of horizontal undercut at the end. It wasn't a water drain, it was a meteor that was excavated.
@@david-evans22 keep smoking whatever you're smoking that is clearly for water bud 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@david-evans22 @doskraut 3 hours ago (edited) The old building was a water reservoir and the cut was for the pope to Sloan Limestone Quarry to the south and looks like around 1970-80.
It's old construction site for water storage. Those piles on the side where their gaps is where the escobar or the digging team left the left over dirt after digging
Dude! U mighta left $ on the ground...coke bottles from the 70s? If they were glass..i dunno mabes not. 🤷 Btw, liked and subscribed!
80 mi away is area 51. So yes that's a very common.
You are my favorite on Utube
That means a lot, thank you!
thanks this scene unusual
It looks like a large trencher that had conveyor belts dumping the diggings on both sides of the trench. I base this on seeing like a flat bottom.
Looks like a water storage system and a drain. Some of the rocks look like they were stacked. If it was a crash. Look for evidence of burning, charing melted rock, and / or glass.
Clearly isn't crash markings. Part of it is probably water drainage from that building. The rest is probably a boundary line/fence between properties. Interesting, but nothing substantial.
Looks like a fire break.
The dirt is very clearly piled up in heaps and not swept to the sides like in crash site.
So were was tail of the ditch . They were using gravity to fill the tank as you pointed out the ditch was deeper by the tank . That might of held a water pipe that’s why the tank is so deep .
Stay inquisitive 👍🏼
Man, I would love to live wherever you are. Nothing around here but cornfields and more cornfields. Two thumbs up for NOT adding annoying music to your content. So much good content on KZhead is ruined by awful and annoying royalty free music that KZhead suggests to content providers. If I want music I will listen to my choice of music.
Interesting.
I think its a thing that was for doing stuff. Its important as you can tell, by the way it is.
❤❤
Something crashed there then cartwheeled out of the slot and was embedded into the ground. Then the authorities built that structure around to to conceal it and study it. Once done studying it they removed the roof to lift it out to transport it elsewhere.
Rough terrain to ride a bike on! Those kinds of things are always a conundrum!
Cool place
It looks like rain catchment to me it’s in a low place and looks like rain could be captured from a large area. It had a roof to slow evaporation. The cans that looked like paint buckets could have been lard cans.
I'm thinking the building may have actually been a water storage tank and the trench was where they were going to run the pipe out of the tank. Did you see if there was a hole in the side of the structure that the trench was on?
Graboids for sure. That "Deviled Egg" rock looked like a thunder Egg split in half, thrown out by volcanoes, a rock shop could tell you and probably make an offer for it.
Do you have a Metal Detector to determine if there are metal fragments from a potential Meteor Hit? Keep up with the great explorations!
You found Santa’s private stash. Rudolph told me so, you know drunkards can’t keep secrets.
Looks like they dug it up
Can I ask what kind of bike you’re using?
You must have some Really Good Yarndi in LasVegas.
That spaceship was the size of a processed pea and crashed pre younger dryas.😊
Trooper what type of bike have you got?
It's an Aventon Ramblas
Water containment and water drainage.
WW2 or post war construction probably a backhoe trench for a water pipeline headed for sloan. Maybe you should take some geology/hydrology courses @ UNLV check out the new preserve area north of Vegas some very cool landforms, fossils & remains of Las Vegas valley when it was a huge pleistoscene lake
is there a drone or what it is on the sky (13:00 / 18:20)
Dude that's what you call a target test site if I'm not mistaken
Where Superman landed when he was a baby 🤔 Really cool find though.
We didn't get a good look at the end of the reservoir where the pipe that was in that trench used to connect.
That’s an old mine. There are many different forms of mining operations.
I would think were it stopped would of had an even bigger berm of dirt at the top soil and if it dug under the ground it would of had a mound/hill at its end.
man, what an excellent investigation for a 70 year-old 'boy adventurer' such as myself!! f- blaine in North Texas
It seems you assumed the mysterious when it's actually something quite ordinary.
Sounds like A-10 warthogs flying overhead
Is that an arroyo? Mountains on both sides, rain would run off to lowest point. That looks like lowest point.. arroyo noun a steep-sided gully formed by the action of fast-flowing water in an arid or semi-arid region, found chiefly in the southwestern US.
Dude a meteor that size would blast a 1000m wide crater. if it skimmed in and slowed to a ballistic fall it would burn up mostly
Yeah aircraft don’t generally go round corners when they’re crashing into the ground
This was possibly man-made, meteors do not make long bending tails in the ground. Even if it was a meteor then you would have found the hole having molten qualities as it would have been a few thousand degrees as it came into the atmosphere and crashed there. You would also be able to find some glass formed by the extreme temperatures from the meteor. After using Google Earth to look through historical imagery, that hole most likely was made around the time of the construction of that building possibly from the late 70s to mid 80s or possibly even earlier as the earliest image is June 1977 in this area. Judging by the number of mining claims in the surrounding areas, that area would have had a lot of traffic.
Dude, it's just a collapse or open stope of a mine. The structure was probably a mill at some time. A meteor would have left an oval shape crater if it struck at an angel.
not sure how i ended up here.
Tremors ‘Graboid’ for sure.
I wonder what kind of GPS that would show your position with a google map view?
We have so many quakes in Nevada. More than meteors.
read below it was a water cistern and was dug out for pipes
👽👽🤯
There’s probably a secret military bunker near by 😎
If you had to choose one electric bike for exploring. Which one would you choose?
looks like a pipe line reclamation that was not cleaned up
A mining project utilizing an excavator
4:11 It’s bigfoot 😂
2.54 is a lard bucket.
😎🆒
