1. Thank you all for rockin with me during everything! This is the last video from our trip to Key West. And I really hope you enjoy it! Also special thanks to Dave and Cody for holding things down while I was away. I’m back now and we’re getting ready to get back to some classic APS for July!

2. devils island was worst

3. Thanks for the content Joe!!!!! I always was interested in exploring this prison when I lived in Haines City Fla. I'm so appreciative of the work you did on this video!!!! Hope you and your wife have a great year!!!!!! 🤜💥🤛✌️🤙👌👍

5. Tear it down and build a parking lot its useless

6. That is really cool vid it makes you think how things have changed my dad did 5 years in Florida state prison locked

7. Nice I'm watching this video late but love these old places imagine the Craziness that went on there being in the Prison or working there!

8. That moat is for sewage.

9. that was AWESOME Joe! Thank you for sharing with us. Though you should have forgot us and concentrated on your WIFE during the Honeymoon. Much Love and Respect Bro!

10. 17:01 if im not mistaken that beat up wall is probably where they executed many prisoners. by musket.

11. Awesome video…..

12. I think you'll find the tower of London a way older prison then this fort.

13. I believe Devil's Island was the worst prison in the world.

14. Late comment but those arcs you saw on the floor you thought were for bars are not what those actually are. I'm a little rusty on my old school fort engineering so you'll have to forgive me but they are either one of two possible things.

    1) Rails were placed on them so the cannons could be swiveled for aiming. In essence you could run the cannon on a rail and by moving the back it gave you the ability to point the cannon. Obviously this is something you want on a fixed fortification gun.

    2) They also could have been patricians which were meant to keep explosions and incursions confined to one cell (not the prison kind of cell but where the cannon is located) in the event there was an accident or an enemy round may have blown the wall in. Obviously you don't want a shit ton of bricks and shrapnel flying at everyone who is scurrying about back there so you would rather just loose one gun or gun crew versus having a potential chain reaction or more damage elsewhere in the fort.

    All that being said old forts are cool as shit. There is actually a surprising amount of forethought, planning, engineering, and craftsmanship that went into building them. Unfortunately as technology advanced and warfare changed they became obsolete. Even coastal guns are a thing of the past with the exception of a few countries in southeast asia that still have some old U.S. ones.

15. That boat looked homemade, like one that might have been used by people escaping Cuba back in the day.

16. Great video

17. Thanks for the history lesson Joe! I believe it's from him that we get the old saying: if such and such happens your name will be Mudd.

18. I think you and your wife should travel and do more outside APS, your enthusiasm is great and your great talking to the camera. APS is good but it not really for everyone and your a everyone kinda guy, and your wifes low key balances it all out.

19. The term your name is mudd .is from this Dr.

20. Joe, you need to hit up Mansfield prison. Shawshank Redemption was filmed there and it was, at one time, a notorious prison. It’s really cool!

21. That would be cool if they developed that place into studio apartments .. So big you can drive your Ferrari into your living room .. only thing is you need to take a plane ride to get groceries and there is kind of nothing to do on the island.

22. The studs on the floor weren't for bars and the windows didn't have bars actually they were cannon ports and the studs were were tracks so they could angle the canons were so they couldnrotate them that's why the are half circles the barrel of the canon would stick out the windows

23. Baybeh

24. That beat at the end tho? 🔥🔥

25. Why dont you mic who ever speaks on camra up sound quality is shit class things up brother sink sum money in the show

26. That's where the expression comes from "your name is as good as mud" check out the movie national treasure with Nicolas cage he even mentions it in the movie

27. What an Awesome day trip. My 2nd Ex-Wife & i we’re Married on the Beach in Jamaica. And spent 4 days snorkeling and free diving. I love it! I collected Conch and got to spear fish and took it back to our 5 ⭐️ resort and cooked it on our beach over a fire 🔥. It definitely was the best week in my life. I know exactly what you are saying about seeing your wife for the first time on my wedding day. I seen her walking down the Beach and couldn’t stop crying till after we were married. I love her to this day. It all changed for her I reckon???
    I still have a cordial relationship with her. Then after 9 years…All she said was “ Larry I just don’t wanna be Married any more “ I wish y’all all the luck in the world!!!

36. I know I am late(started late watching)anyway congrats on your wedding, thank you for sharing your videos of the wedding and honeymoon.
