Abandoned China Factory

[marykay2234]

lol did you take any home and just wash them

[TheZmusicGroup]

the thing which is strange is that there are still some dishes and other products in the factory. It seems the business went down very fast and it closed in one day, leaving the unfinished products in the factory.

[dstrittmatter]

At about :40 there is an old hit and miss engine. I would love to buy that from whoever owns that property.

[CuriousEarthMan]

Thanks for posting!! At first I thought it was an abandoned Chinese factory, not a china factory. Now I realize. Sadly, it's next to impossible to get those jobs and businesses back to the U.S. once they've left. I've witnessed so much mfg leave this country, and with it, a lot of opportunities for people to express their creative, productive abilities. Everything I can think of I want make or produce is now done so cheaply elsewhere, it's almost disheartening. Thanks for posting, though!!!

[alexcruzred32]

looks like something off a saw movie

[megasmart1337]

all that stuff

[94XJ]

Looks like a good place for a first date.

[areustillinthebox]

would not go there at night, that place looks haunted as sh**

[greatlakesurbanex]

@areustillinthebox Haha! No offense you or anything but I've been in plenty of places like this at night and I've never run into anything unexplainable, I just don't buy into that ghost stuff. Plus why is it that ghosts only seem to come out at night? Do people become nocturnal when they die? These places are lot of fun at night, definitely a lot more creepy, but that's part of the fun of it.

[MissMaddy881]

@greatlakesurbanex well, i'm from new orleans and i saw on tv one time as a kid where somebody said they saw a ghost in the daytime at the myrtles. i don't believe in ghosts, either. well, i kind of do, but i'll have to see one to really believe they exist.

[figght245]

is it vacant?

[maddawg762]

I see lots of heavy-duty equipment and other stuff in there I could salvage and put to good use. Shame it's all sitting there rotting away.

Heck, I could use some of that china in the pile, and a couple warehouse carts, etc.

[greatlakesurbanex]

@figght245 Yes, very vacant.

[hobomnky]

i dont get it is there a specific reason y ur filming looks like any abandoned factory would

is there a reason y its abandoned?

[DJBJR1970]

Wow it looks like one day it was A running place and they just walked out! Thanks for posting it.

[gundam12ful]

YEAH YOU MAKE SOME THING!!

[emutiny]

probably make a good amount of money scrapping some of that shit

[wagon455]

how have the scrap guys not found this place?

[1x93cm]

even in its abandoned state its still more productive than walmart

[westonsz]

First the giant sucking sound of the jobs being drained from America and now the ghost of the U.S. economy. Atleast we are producing corrupt congressmen by the dozens.

[TheLongfords]

Yes a lost life to some of the workers, we prefer to buy products made from free child labour in china, so next time you visit the mall or the moll, ask the question where was the product made, if you don`t get a reply then do not attempt to buy it.

[suzuki400boi]

MMMMM, COPPER!

[waldenhouse]

Where's PA?

[HouseNigro]

Pennsylvania, USA...the factory made china, now it makes a makeshift rape room.

[DETHMETALTRASH]

que hacen con el terreno yo reciclo todo el acero, agarro los motores para un museo y las vajillas para los necesitados, convierto el edificio en una escuela tecnica y trabajo para todos bonito 3:11 feliz navidad 2009 feliz año 2010. VENEZUELA.

[dgwbuildwright]

i think it reminds me of ABANDONED BRITAIN

[aarowsmith]

Is this the the previous Behringer factory?!!

[fredomars]

Hehe Nasi złomiarze zaraz zrobiliby tam porządek !!

[wballe88]

Also, I see a good development opportunity here. Here in the UK, developers are always converting rural factories/warehouses into 'luxury' apartments.

[jessejmorris2nd]

@wballe88 they dont need to convert it into a converting luxuray apartments they need to find away to reopen it and start reproducian makeing prodects here in the U.S.

[wballe88]

I know what happened. Everybody at that plant decided to quit and just get desk jobs.

[G0IFI]

That's amazing, production must've continued to he last minute, with nobody aware the place was closing. It must've come like a bolt out of the blue. Abandoned. yep. They all went home and nobody ever came back. Reminds me of the Thatcher days over here, for the few years after I left school.

[FAporsiempre]

Very sad

[n9xvt]

looks like an antique engine at :40sec.,,someone needs to save it! for history

put it in engine shows! before the scrappers get at it,,it breaks my heart that such fine old engines are wasted as scrap! they should be cherished,shown so that someday younger generations might know history of such devices,, i'd like a second longer view,,also any other mechanical wonders? more please!,,nice vid! more more more!nice tune,,never heard that version!

[Kerogas]

I really think that is an air compressor . The 2 big plugs on top of the cylinder lead me to believe that . 

or Maybe it -IS- a cousin to the Mery Exploive Engine , and I am just blind and full of it .....LOL

[lololzak]

1:47

GO BACK AND GET SOME PLATES!

[Bostonbrecash15]

lol, i said that!!!!

[Bostonbrecash15]

omfg, are thoes plates?!?!?!?!!?!? you guys should check out cape cod massachuets, lots of abandonded summer homes+ stores.

[dyonnegalata]

I guess that isnt hard to find a place to film a movie like saw around there..

[tgz1000]

A china dish factory in the US. Hmm, I guess that would make the original product China: Made in the USA. That's a switch.

[Purplesky74]

I'm curious if you took any China? This is sad but even more so there was China left behind. Great video. Thank you for posting.

[ZX2ManDave]

These abandoned factories are the final victim of outsourcing. The buildings remain standing and deteriorating for years to come, becoming a safety hazard and a public nuisance, hangouts for drug addicts and the like. They stand for decades, ruining peoples property value and neighborhoods while the companies who once owned them now operate in China or Mexico making huge profits through virtual slave labor.

I admit there is something romantic about exploring these buildings, but its still sad.

[hellsmaw84]

i agree with that 100%. outsourcing is closing all our factories. i live in greenville ohio and lord knows how many buildings are abandoned.

[w344242]

There is one HUGE important factor you may not know about..Most of the Factories in China an other over seas countries were financed by people investing in the overseas companies.How you ask?Any one who has a 401 k plan.That invested in Foreign markets.High yield on there investment.But at what cost?Loss of American jobs.We did it to our selves.I only invest in American Bourne Bonds..Bonds that help rebuild America..The yeild may be low.But my money stays here an not over seas.

[9webwiz9]

hey dude they mean a factory that produces china like pots or tee cups not a factory IN china. just saying.

[joewalter222]

It's not so much Wal-mart is causing all this, it's US the consumers that got greedy. Now we have garages full of cheap broken appliances made in China and a crappy job in retail trying to pay for said house and junk.

I have bought KitchenAid kitchen appliances and a whole lotta accessories. High quality, tough and made in USA but expensive (over $500) - but well worth it after 8 YEARS of use.

We gotta stop being cheap on goods and start being smart. Needless to say, I rent - and save...

[zeporahjane1966]

That was amazing. Kudos to you for taking your pictures then leaving. I'm sickened by the video published here of spray paint and smashing any and everything.

[greatlakesurbanex]

thank you. we feel the same way.

[starkiller20293]

where in PA is this located? becuase i know a great place you can go around here. shoot me a PM

[SuperYanay]

from us here too. thanx fordocumenting without ruining

[CaptainCorndog9]

@zeporahjane1966 Yeah, smashing things and making noise is somehow very jarring and unfulfilling to a place so earily peaceful. I love urban exploring although i never get to do much of it. Graffitti finds a home in abandoned buildings. Spray is simply going to be a part of urban expo much of the time just because of the nature of it. It's easier to do in an abandoned building then on a store front out in the street. sometimes good graff adds to the feeling of abandoned buildings sometimes

[greatlakesurbanex]

@zeporahjane1966 I'm sickened by that stuff too. Ignorant kids have no respect for their history.

[Phunker1]

what have they done to mad world? ..bastards

[daveyorkvh]

Thats the origional version

[EdmDude]

That would make a good paintball / airsoft place, lol

[knightspy]

Wouldn't be an issue if more Americans bought American made products. -chances are if buy american or japanese its made in china at least several componets are, even honda power equ in north carolina factory the ignition and several componets are made in china not japan or america, i know i wired the production lines there also i have lived in china , theres no way in hell america or japan can match chinese industry, we are regulated and taxed out of a chance to compete, its that simple

[Reverseflush]

I'm surprised that factory isn't inhabited especially pertaining to the mass of population.

[greatlakesurbanex]

its a china dish factory in pennsylvania...not a factory in china. lol.

[josh198869]

when was it shut down? cuz i saw a fork lift that is worth money just siting there lol makes ya wonder what happend and why it was shut down

[musicalidea]

@greatlakesurbanex Lol. China is the reason why the Pennsylvania china factory is abandoned.

[cnnw3929]

There are many factories just like this in China, left abandoned because we can no longer afford their imports. Thank the exportation of our jobs for that, and they'll get a dose of the medicine. What comes around, goes around. Shenzhen will one day be the next Detroit.

[Asher32587]

Did you ever find out why they shut it down?? It looks like everyone just left one day!! At one point the stuff actually looked kinda nice!

[MrAkA22]

if lazy fucking white trash would work as hard as the chinesse people there will be alot more jobs in the usa

[sbfpat]

i think what you mean to say is, if lazy fucking white trash would work for 30 cents an hour in life-threatening conditions, there will be a lot more jobs in the usa

[MrAkA22]

yup thats what i mean thanks

[josephkennith]

they did it in lowell mass and lawerence in the 1800s then they heard of HUMAN RIGHTS

[justinbhr]

Wouldn't be an issue if more Americans bought American made products.

[STORM6490MT]

Trippy. A china factory that was probably closed because of outsourcing to China.

[AJuner78]

Wow, another interesting place. its like they just closed the doors one day and left unfinished product sitting.

[solipsized]

this is nearby pittsburgh isn't it.

WHERE IS THIS???

why are you hiding the location! gah

[greatlakesurbanex]

sorry. i just dont want to see a bunch of idiots find this place on the internet and go and destroy the place.

[solipsized]

I am not interested in that. I want to shoot promo photos there for my portfolio! If you change your mind about not telling anyone please send me a message, I would really appreciate it.

[uglyedsel]

Kind of reminds me of New Jersey, including the People.

Did any of you people ever actually work in a factory? sheesh!

[davesingleman]

what song is this?

[vallsack]

Mad World

[sprinkler66]

Wow, how many useless and plastic comments on there! Why americans are so hypocritical? How many thousands of abandoned US factory are there all around the world? How many millions of polluting wastes did you left around? Chinese are not worse than US, they just lead the world in next 10 years. That's life, accept it. You're much worse than CN!

[greatlakesurbanex]

i dont even know what this comment is all about. i'll probably just remove it.

[admrozzel]

Lol, I believe the poster is taking your video as a personal attack on China (the country) and he won't allow any of it!

[balcones27]

This was a factory in the U.S. The factory made china as in china dishes. Not China as in the country. Re-read the title as "abandoned plate/cup/saucer factory". It is possible for words to have more than one meaning. That's life accept it.

[josephkennith]

now its made in china.

[mjohnston69]

where is it?

[XionXXXX]

It looks like some abandoned factories around Detroit, the Dead Motor City.

[KrazenKarl]

whow! prety cool.. If I was in there, I would have helped my self with a free dinner set. lol

odd how everything looks so lifeless in there..

prety cool!

[greatlakesurbanex]

haha. well you wouldnt want to eat off of it. those old china dishes were made with lots of lead.

[KrazenBloodrage]

err... never mind.. either way, they'd make a good conversation piece, seeing from ware there from?

[Keveeee2000]

Yeah, be sure to take note, it's a CHINA FACTORY IN PA!

It's strange, like one day no one came to work and they just left it that way.

[8x56]

At .38 there is a stationary horizontal steam engine. They went out years ago.

[lou737]

Tungsten and Mercury made in china. Made to kill.

[Surrey12]

it'S a "china" factory, it makes china/porcelain... not a factory in china

[uni000ver000sal]

Have you guys decontamined your selves before leaving the factory?

Are you guys planning to procreate one day?

Remember mercury and lead oxides are genetic mutants!

[paranzoik]

you should of smashed all the china plates and trashed the place why didnt you

[greatlakesurbanex]

because im not 12 years old.

[Ghosthunter142]

Hahaha. Nice

[DewbieHaut]

Pennsylvania's just a huge abandoned industrial area it seems

[Mollweidekadet]

Great stuff!

I used to really enjoy going round places like this with my mates in England when we were kids in the early eighties. There always seemed to be loads of derelict terraced houses and the like to explore!
