  1. Today we join Adam and his local Saipan friends as they go to the historical island of Tinian, where the check out some remainants of the World War II Bomb pits and other US military installations. They also eat food, cause well it's in the channel name.

    I, even watching got a real aura of significant history looking at those bomb pits just thinking of what that meant once those bombs were loaded. I can't imagine what it must have been like standing there in person looking at them. Thanks Adam, as always. Also nice BLOW HOLE.

  2. I feel like I'm learning so much about history and geography watching your videos. I look forward to them. Thanks for sharing.

  3. amazed at all the history still left over from WWII, like that whole ass TANK just sitting there?! (the blowhole was kinda neat too!) always appreciate a history lesson with these videos whenever possible. also as always some really good looking food!

  4. If it weren’t for this video, I would’ve never known about this place. Especially the blowhole. Cool stuff!

  5. 1:21 "I went to the Eté Café to get coffee and honey bread …"

    but I found a HARD-OFF inside and scored a lot of cool pickups for my next PlayLoad

  6. That empty hangar space looks like it could be prime real estate to rent out to open a Hard-Off/Book-Off, complete with overhead railing to sell used guitars

  7. You brought up the Enola Gay but not the Bockscar? I had hoped you would mention that the Bockscar carried Fat Man to Nagasaki.

  8. 26:34 that Yap currency was offered to Adam to purchase the Pluto prototype off his hands but neglected to realize that Rog is its true owner

  9. 30:33 next time on PlayLoad: I scored these sweet crutches from the Majesty Chinese Restaurant on my trip to the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands

  10. Wow! Thanks for featuring Tinian Adam – always wondered how Tinian looks like today as part of CNMI – did see variety of cattle grazing in the fields in the video. As the history goes the colonial gov't harvested cattle in Tinian during colonial days.
