The shaft was started in the 1870s, was 14 foot wide and reached a depth of 282 metres or 925 feet. The mine closed in the 1960s. Enjoy the video and stay safe. -- Uk Abandoned Mine Explores on YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsW2E1LQ7EETG9NQgij2dWA?disable_polymer=true IP: 5.65.199.63 Edited: 17/10/2020 22:46:42 by UK Abandoned Mine Explores

Just wondering as you have clearly gone to a lot of effort doing this and not reaching the very bottom am A bit confused . Cheers Tom -- From the land of the pillar and stall IP: 176.252.118.34

You have to ask yourself why blur our the company name, surely that would be good advertising. Ofcourse the Coal Authority will know both of those details. Although I suspect they also might wonder why a video of one of their shafts has been released. May be ask the Coal Authority where it is, and why they do these surveys - they will tell you IP: 86.9.141.57

Blurring out the name makes it harder for anyone to find out who actually owns the video footage, unless the owner themselves comes across the video IP: 80.189.176.30

The Coal Authority does occasionally release these, or gives permission for them to be shared. There is another thread on AN somewhere with some legitimate footage but I can't find it at the moment.... -- Yma O Hyd.... IP: 86.128.27.222

As the video is on youtube (based in the USA), the fines, court fees, etc. could be in the tens of thousands per viewing - or the law firm says "Instead of going to court, pay $100k and we'll let it go" Sheer stupidity IP: 80.189.176.30

To check for another collapse does not make sense in my view they went past the first collapse didn’t stop at that ? So surly you would keep going the coal board would no the depth of the shaft and send there team with a correct length cable . -- From the land of the pillar and stall IP: 176.252.118.34

Twigg (alias AME and retrogamerVX? I think) was asked about permission (Yorkshire TV in that case), he used a questionable word formulation to suggest it had been given, by saying that the copyright holder had been "approached".

They are either endlessly boring helmetcam footage in which you can't really see a huge amount, or have a "dramatic" noisy music track which ruins what I like about going underground - quiet reflection on history (in mines) or nature (in caves). Occasionally some good stuff pops up - but only occasionally. After watching a few vids from particular Youtubers, you soon learn to tune out and ignore them. I have better things to do, and much better things to watch. IP: 209.93.224.78
