Good YouTube channels but not the popular ones?

Does anybody know of any good youtube channels of not so popular urbex adventurers?

I'm getting real annoyed by those urbexers with crappy dialogue and annoying personalities where they constantly record themselves that shove their merch in your face. I like I dont mind if people talk in the video, but most of these dudes are just full of themselves and dramatize their content.

A good channel example would be "shiey", a guy in Russia that finds old bunkers,warehouses etc and does live site infil. But he hasn't posted in a while, I thinks hes been arrested or something

A youtube channel called AScriptedLaugh has a lot of great urbex videos. None of that clickbait "OMG ALMOST DIED IN HAUNTED [BUILDING]" crap that appears so often in urbex videos.

I am obsessed with underground, so my top 2 are mostly bando mine explores.

Mine Explorers:

This guy used to focus on abandonedment, but has since digressed to filthy hotels and dead malls. His video list still has a ton of older bando vids.

I did not have that one in my list - thanks!!! What an EPIC hobby - I am sooooo jealous of the mine explorers..... I am an audio nerd and spend tons of money on audio gear - if I lived in the SW, I would settle for a transistor radio and have tons of money invested in exploring gear and safety equipment instead. Perhaps I will relocate some day.....

I have to give a shout-out to Broken Window Theory. Their videos are, in my opinion, the very antithesis of the annoying, clickbaity channels that unfortunately seem to dominate the hobby. The cinematography is fabulous, very professionally produced and edited, with excellent soundtracks and thoughtful, respectful narration that focuses on the history of each location and the features that make them attractive to explore. And being located in Germany, they really do a great job of showing off fantastic locations that may be unfamiliar to us American explorers, sometimes in shockingly good states of preservation and natural decay. And, they actively post here, over on the Photo board. The Proper People is the only other channel that I've found that even comes close to being as good as what these guys do, but BWT is definitely my favorite by far.

I agree, they are not over the top with their content. I think that The Proper People have a good balance between footage and commentary.

If you're into mining and tunnels,

<Exploring Abandoned Mines and Unusual Places>

He has good content with relatively little commentary. I preferred his old channel, but this one is still pretty good.

For Ontario exploring I really liked TikiTrex. Her older videos are VERY amateur, and feel more like you're exploring with a friend. She's always been respectful of locations and shows some pretty cool/unique places. She hasn't posted in a while though.

As a general rule it seems anyone called 'Exploring with - ' should be avoided like the plague.

I agree with what most people have said, The Proper People and Broken Window Theory are good and the main ones I watch. But as for smaller channel, I like watching Free4All, they're local explorers to my area which makes it all the better.

Here's the link to them if you want it.

I only discovered The Proper People recently and I really like their stuff.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Exploring The Unbeaten Path. They go to some truly epic locations. I believe Bob has a account on here although I don't think he has posted on awhile.

Anton Daniels is a chill dude who rides around Detroit on his motorbike checking out abandonments. He's low key and gives good insight to the places he explores.

Seconding all the recs for Broken Windows Theory and Proper People. Shiey is very good too.
