In the early morning on March 18th 1953 During a lowaltitude flight over the Atlantic Ocean the US Air Force B36 Peacemaker # 5113721 struck an 896foot tall ridge near Nut Grove in Newfoundland, Canada. The pilots were offcourse and had misjudged speed and altitude. The plane hit the mountain side and exploded on impact, killing all 23 men on board. The B36 is the largest massproduced pistonengined aircraft ever built. It had the longest wingspan of any combat aircraft ever built at 230 ft (70.1 m). Tragedy from this crash continued. The B29 Superfortress search and rescue plane of the 52nd Air Rescue Squadron, 6th Air Rescue Group was sent out to assist in the search efforts. Once the B36 Peacemaker plane crash site was discovered. The B29 Superfortress search and rescue plane headed back to the Harmon Air Force Base in Stephenville, Newfoundland. The plane disappeared. It is believed to have crashed into St. Georges Bay, a few miles from the runway, killing all ten on board. The wreckage was never found, no cause for the crash was ever identified. The total death toll on this day from both plane crashes is 33.

About me:
I have been exploring abandoned places since I was a child and now I would like to film the explores and share the videos with you.

My father took me to my first abandoned house when I was 7 years old. I remember going into the house and a old farmer came in and told us "we better watch out as the floors are all rotten and unsafe". Ever since that day I was hooked on exploring abandoned places.

If you have a location you would like to share with me or want me to explore for you please send me an email at [email protected] and I will give you full credit for the share in the description and during the video if you choose.
