Everyone's like, "Oh my God, what kind of talk is this?"
46

ื›ื•ืœื ื”ื™ื• -- "ืืœื•ื”ื™ื, ืื™ื–ื” ืžื™ืŸ ื”ืจืฆืื” ื–ื•?"

Hanging out at the mall could be fun, but it could be really lame, too,

03:10
And you kind of felt --
57
190540
1376
ื•ื”ื™ืชื” ื”ืจื’ืฉื” -
03:11
they never announced the mall was closing,

2776
ืฉืžืฉื”ื• ื’ื“ื•ืœ ืขื•ืžื“ ืœืงืจื•ืช,

ื›ืื™ืœื• ืฉื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืกื•ืฃ ื”ื“ืจืš.

(ืžื•ึผืกึดื™ืงึธื”)
03:58
So when I started producing "The Dead Mall Series,"
65
238820
2416
ื›ืฉื”ืชื—ืœืชื™ ืœื™ืฆื•ืจ ืืช "ืกื“ืจื•ืช ื”ืงื ื™ื•ื ื™ื ื”ืžืชื™ื"

ื”ืขืœื™ืชื™ ืืช ื”ืกืจื˜ื•ื ื™ื ืœื™ื•ื˜ื™ื•ื‘,

2136
ื•ื‘ืขื•ื“ ืฉื—ืฉื‘ืชื™ ืฉื”ื ืžืขื ื™ื™ื ื™ื,
04:05
frankly I didn't think others would share the enthusiasm

ืžื ื•ืฉื ื›ื” ืžื“ื›ื“ืš ื•ืžื“ื›ื.
04:14
But apparently I was wrong,
70
254100
1336
ืื‘ืœ ื›ื ืจืื” ืฉื˜ืขื™ืชื™,
04:15
because a lot of people started to comment.

2056
ื›ื™ ื”ืจื‘ื” ืื ืฉื™ื ื”ืชื—ื™ืœื• ืœื”ื’ื™ื‘.
04:17
And at first the comments were like --
72
257540
1880
ื•ื‘ืชื—ื™ืœื” ื”ื™ื• ืชื’ื•ื‘ื•ืช ื›ืžื• -
04:20
basically like, "Oh my God, that's the mall from my childhood.
73
260980
3336
"ืื•ื™ ืืœื•ื”ื™ื, ื–ื” ื”ืงื ื™ื•ืŸ ืฉืœ ื™ืœื“ื•ืชื™.
04:24
What happened?"
74
264340
1200
ืžื” ืงืจื”?"
04:26
And then I would get comments from people who were like,
75
266300
2640
ื•ืื– ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืžืงื‘ืœ ืžืื ืฉื™ื ืชื’ื•ื‘ื•ืช ืฉื”ื™ื• ื›ืžื•,
04:29
"There's a dead mall in my town. You should come and film it."

04:33
So I started to travel around the mid-Atlantic region

ืื—ื“ื™ื ื”ื™ื• ืคืชื•ื—ื™ื.

Some were abandoned.

1240
ืื—ื“ื™ื ื”ื™ื• ื ื˜ื•ืฉื™ื,
04:44
It was kind of always hard to get into the ones that were abandoned,

ื”ืงื ื™ื•ื ื™ื ืฉืขื“ื™ื™ืŸ ืคืชื•ื—ื™ื,

ืื‘ืœ ื”ื ืžื ืกื™ื ืœื˜ืคื— ืื•ืชืŸ

For example,

ืœื“ื•ื’ืžื”:
05:08
you'll have an empty store

ื›ืžื• ืžืฉื—ืง ื•ื•ื™ื“ืื•, ื‘ืขืฆื.
