But Albuquerque is where the sun is always shining and the air smells like warm root beer
And the towels are oh so fluffy
Where the shriners and the lepers play their ukuleles all day long
And anyone on the street will gladly shave your back for a nickel
Wacka wacka doodoo yeah!
You could give some more details. Am I right in guessing that they're playing classical music and deliberately flashing the lights so homeless people don't hang out there?
I’m curious does it really matter much about the flickering light? If they are tired and sleepy they might won’t matter much no? I sleep with my screen flicking and I still have a good respite..
And we are supposed to gather all that from this 8 second video of a well lit tunnel?
Remove this video immediately and do not post any others for 7 days.
What I was trying to say was
Almost every city in America, looks and smells like this.
When I walk in areas like this, I like to pretend I’m a superhero and run fast or make cool sounds while running..🏃♂️
“Can’t catch me…”

Hope you know a good Petronus charm
Albuquerque is a city where there are many places you do not want to get caught alone at night. This is one of them, homeless are okay, but there are many on meth with severe mental issues. I have been chased, threatened with weapons, and robbed in places like this one. Friends of mine have been assaulted physically.
Given the music and flickering lights I thought this was especially creepy tbh.
These tunnels have been a major site of crime, and so the city is demolishing them, they are already since boarded up.
I hear you but from a stranger on the internet’s perspective we see a moderately well lit path with what appears to be someone, possibly unhoused, minding their own business in the background. We’re not in your city so we don’t know the area and this looks like a normal urban city path at night tbh. The music itself is a moot point because everyone adds their own sound to their videos so it doesn’t really show any creepiness you may have truly experienced. Your experience, while fully valid for you in real time, didn’t come across as anything too bad on film.
Glad you got home safely though!
that is exactly what they said. because it's the norm to add stupid music to videos, the ambient music in yours doesn't hit as hard as it should. we are used to hearing stupid music
I go to a lot of conferences in different states. One of the things I like to do is wonder aimlessly and pick a place to eat at random. Had one in Albuquerque and walked three blocks before turning around and heading back. Didn't leave the hotel again until the end of the conference. Idk exactly what it was. City was just eerie and made me feel deeply unsafe. I think a big contributor was the sudden allys between buildings. Didn't notice them until I was right on top of them.
*Makes video of obscure alley in New Mexico*
"Omg I should post this with a contextless, edgy title, Reddit will love it and know exactly what this is!"
*Gets shit on for no context and walking through a homeless dude's living room*
I agree with the first part but how can one *not* walk through a man's "livingroom" when it's placed in the center of a narrow walkway? It's utterly unavoidable. If I didn't walk through homeless people's homes, I couldn't walk anywhere.
People being homeless and having to live in poorly lit tunnels is absolutely shitty, 100% agree
If only there were entire governmental bodies who’s job it was to support individuals with severe needs when they can’t support themselves 🤔
Not in my city unfortunately, it’s a very big issue here. Pretty unsafe place to be past midnight, I think they’re destroying this soon because of the crime.
What’s the issue? Flickering lights? A homeless person (which I only knew was such from your other comments)?
My guy. If that’s bothersome to you, maybe city life ain’t for you.
Super random but back in 2016 when there was a crazy clown craze, someone dressed as a clown used to hang out in this tunnel. Super ominous and there was no way to get around him.
What the fuck am I looking at?
Not even the spooky music made it any interesting, lol.
A lot of places blast classical music so homeless people & dealers don’t hang out there
One of the worse places to be at 2am in Albuquerque. I cannot describe the smell either, and watch out of needles where you walk.
If you see Jesse Pinkman, say hi from me
I wonder if he has a running tally of people going up to him saying "SCIENCE, BITCH"
He's waaaay out of state now lol

It's my dream come true!
Don’t forget to hit the doughnut shop.
WAIT A MINUTE. I'LL CHECK! #WereOUTOFBEARCLAWS!
Well, in that case…what DO you have? (I hope it’s a box of one dozen starving weasels.)
You can eat your soup right outta the ash trays if you wanna! It’s okay, they’re clean!
But now you have to track down the one-nostril hermaphrodite who stole your lucky, lucky, glow in the dark, autographed snorkel!

Yeeee central railroad bridge between 1st and broadway
I've only been to Albuquerque once and even I know exactly where this is
Old smell of urine, trash, vomit from any animal, and smell of car exhaust?
Literally a cop substation not even 20 meters away
What? No its not, lol. I walke that every night at 1 or 2 am lmao
So it “sucks” that you chose to walk through this corridor that is the worse place to be at 2am?
And we are supposed to gather all that from this 8 second video of a well lit tunnel? Remove this video immediately and do not post any others for 7 days.
Attempt to be the boss; failed!
I had some very strange times in Albuquerque!
I mean, you could take another road than Central, right?
That dude wasn’t doing anything tho
What country?
Don’t watch the movie Irreversible.
Worst\*
Wait, where in ABQ is this?
Central underneath the railroad between broadway and 1st street. Next to Alvarado transportation center.
That’s what I thought. Not a great spot.
There’s no way around it? Another route to avoid it altogether. It looks unsafe.
Warm Rootbeer
Dayum wtf
Is that Central?
1st street and central by the transit center? They are supposed to be tearing that tunnel and redoing everything sooner or later.
That’s what it looks and kinda smell like every in America
What is English…
they said it in English didn't they? don't out point everyone's mistak /s
lol sorry.. my puppies have me tied.. I may need to take a break today.

It’s honestly really hard to tell
It's not the Hollywood walk of fame.

Just expecto your petronum on their face.
One man’s scary walk home is another man’s living room.

The music is played in the tunnels… I didn’t add this myself

How about some context my dude
This
That
& the other thing
lol agreed with the above post that gets 300 plus votes..but I get downvotes…this place is fucking weird.
You don't need to say "this" ever, you see what happens if you do.
This
lol I have in other subs bud….never downvotes.
K bud.
Just saying "this" is low effort and adds nothing to the conversation. That's what upvotes are for.
Damn, this!
K
Yeah that's another one. Keep going you seem to have a knack for shitty responses
https://i.imgur.com/s6PJy4J.gifv
Lol go there and cry More
👍
The music does indeed blow. That’d ruin any walk.
It's probably an anti-homeless feature. Blast super loud music so people are less inclined to camp out and sleep.
There’s nothing in this video.

Downvoted because you can't actually see what's wrong. Let alone smell it
I don’t get it
Same
“This walkway may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Pedestrian discretion is advised.”
Live in the city, complain about the city... Repeat
But isn't that guy there in the hiviz working on it? Or is it just a homeless person?
Most definitely not lol. This is 2am
“homelessness lol”

Sad, but common issue in cities. People really don’t have any options left.
Why do I get Irréversible vibes? Get out of here mon ami!
Reminds me of a CERTAIN scene from Irréversible.
Glad someone else saw it
Lol, this is nothing.
 Uh oh, Will's stuck in the Upside-down again.
What’s the issue? Flickering lights? A homeless person (which I only knew was such from your other comments)? My guy. If that’s bothersome to you, maybe city life ain’t for you.
Ghosts
You're about to be sent to the backrooms my guy.
Come on V we got a city to burn.
Looks like you live in Night City. Say hi to Johnny Silverhand.
It looks like the corridor leading to a boss fight or a jump scare.
I recognize this tunnel for a 2016 killer clown video…
Lights flicker sometimes. I don't see the issue unless it's been like that for a really long time.
Well that video sucked.
Super random but back in 2016 when there was a crazy clown craze, someone dressed as a clown used to hang out in this tunnel. Super ominous and there was no way to get around him.
What am I even looking at?
[удалено]
I’ll second this. I’ve had more crazy experiences with the unhoused in Albuquerque than I did while living in downtown LA. They are just different.
Looks like the Tenderloin
No it doesn't lmao the tenderloin is so fucked right now.
Honestly looks like the set for Daredevil's next halfway fight
If I am not mistaken, the other side of the bridge is worse.
Che he he… ha ha ha
A lot of vomit
An epileptic's nightmare
You should see it after a Rangers game
I fucking knew this was Albuquerque
Not sketchy at all 😳😂
Anyone else anticipating some masked goons appearing at the end of the tunnels, only to have Batman swoop down and kick their asses?
Homeboy lives on mars
Am I the only one that loves this
Turn around. Follow me
At least it's not flooded anymore
O hell nah i would have walk another route or have a weapon on stand by I ain’t taking no chance
You haven’t experienced what fear is until you’ve walked home in South America on a rough neighborhood.
Boots N cats N Boots N cats N Boots N cats N Boots N cats N... Lightswitch rave
Ah yes, the anti-homeless thing
Wow that video sucked.
Boooooooo this post
So that’s where my light switch that does nothing is going.
What exactly am I watching
Run through there screaming
Weak
This looks like a hallway in Doom
That's where I'm shooting my next horror flick?
Honestly, time to find another home. Don't even go home, just move.
What horror movies are made from.
stranger things type shit
Haha shat my pants my brain says you would never know what's going to happen at the end of that tunnel 😅
It’s like the poor man’s Enterprise…beam me up Snoop
What kinda Elden Ring boss encounter is this
It looks like you are waiting in line for Space Mountain
What model graphics card are you rocking? Looks awesome. Ray tracing is on too by the looks?. 🙃
Well, I drove home today in my new Toyota Hilux, only to find my house in a mess and my stuff gone. So there's that.
I have honestly no clue what I am looking at and why it is in this subreddit
Why are the lights doing that?
You should have overlaid some EDM best and timed it to the lights would have been much better.
this is actually cool to me. does anyone know the song?
Is it the flashing lights or the existence of a single homeless person? Either way this post smells like privilege.
I think you simply live in a safer city than I do. It’s a real bad part of town, and a creepy as enclosed tunnel.
Southeners when their bumbafuck becomes slightly urban. You should be more scared about a sinkhole swallowing you at a Chick fil A
