Inside Japan's Forest Island of Destruction - [Abandoned]

Don’t forget to give that like bottom some love! This is going to be a fun one~

This is just awesome. An empty island, no humans, so much to explore. I could spend days on an island like this and not be bored for one second. Thanks for the adventure Norm.

You know I can't really see the spiderwebs from the monitor so whenever Norm clears out the webs all I see is him waving his stick like a magic wand like he's about to say wingardium leviosa hahaaa

You have to go back and take us camping here!!! 😲

"You're a wizard, Harry!" "I shall cast Begone-ius Spiderwebbus!"

I'm an Overhead Powerlines Patroller in England, so it was funny to me to see you go down a disused path on a mostly abandoned island to see a High Voltage switch pole, almost just like me on an average day 😂 You have to go back to this amazing island!!

Awesome livestream as always Norm. This was an amazing and epic adventure. Those stairs around the 40 min mark even watching on a screen it looked like you were going down even though you’re going up. Thanks for letting us ride along with you on your adventures.

I could feel your excitement, the lack of research can sometimes yield great content as we get to be surprised right along side you. 10/10!!

This is why I want to retire in Japan. It's got so much packed into it. Thanks Norm for showing us the beauty we can look forward to if we ever get to visit.

This island is really interesting, old defensive locations are, most of the time, interesting. Also what I always like in nature, is the sound of running water (plus points when it drops a bit). That view at 34:02 looks like a waterpainting. Beautiful. That water up close is amazing, lovely blue.

So sorry I’m late, been having health issues and sleep has been my friend. Being able to catch up with your videos and streams just makes the day better. This island was incredible! I’m always intrigued by historical places and seeing how they came to be or what they are repurposed for, but this reminded me strongly of Where the Wild Things Are, especially the burrowed paths and such. Definitely a treat and a delight. Thank you for taking us with you.

I could explore that island for days. Thanks for taking us along.

I was told to leave something so....... something. I love little villages like this. I feel like you can find the 'heart' of the people a lot easier than in a big city, and find more meaningful memories. History was strewn across that island with untold stories left to be discovered. I am sure all the secrets were beyond those pylons.

@33:13 my favorite moment when I am in nature is just taking a moment to stop, close my eyes, and take deep breathes while listening to the birds chirp and the leaves rustle around me. Nature is the absolute best medicine! Thank you for the stream, Norm! What an adventure!

Just got home from celebrating my gf getting her master's degree and my birthday. Glad to end our day watching this 💪♥️

This was something to behold...As someone who has just recently moved from living in Ehime for 9 years to Nagano, I am so homesick for the ocean, remote little islands and mountain towns. This was so cool to see. I didn't manage to get to many of the islands that had limited ferrys, mainly made it to the ones that you could get too off of the bridges. The ammount of history packed into the area that nobody really knows about or talks about, be the forienger or locals, is really cool. I hope I can eventually move back to the area and check stuff like this as well as all the little mountain hamlets that have fallen off the map in recent years. Thank you for taking us along!

Sorry i missed your stream, but got my first washer and dryer... never has laundry been so entertaining.

Brilliant video (as ever). I'm a conflict archaeologist and I've been fascinated by these abandoned island batteries for a while, so I was very excited to see the barrack rooms in the thumbnail. I doubt I'll ever be able to make it out to them in person, so exploring them with you was a real treat. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful! I loved the contrast of hiking into the mountains with the spectacular view of the ocean. The buildings were also fascinating. Thanks again.

Can't wait loving the streams so far!
