Adam the Woo

I always loved this one when Tom Wilson from Back to the Future hijacks Adam's video...

I discovered both Adam, and Justin Scarred, right before I went to WDW for the first time in 24 years, back in 2014. He really helped to re-kindle my love of WDW and helped bring me up to speed on the changes throughout the years-and then I discovered WDW Magic during my search for more info. Over the years, I really got into his other content-the small town roadtrips, abandoned places, roadside attractions, filming locations. It always felt like you were watching a friend show you the things they've seen and the places they've been. It hit kinda hard when I heard about his passing. What else can you say but-he's done his duty, and he has gone home to schleep well. RIP.

Sadly I watched Adams last shows last night ( felt I had to) and had a difficult time finishing it. Throughout the clip watching him so upbeat and happy for Christmas and the future plans, I got a last look at this amazing and talented man. Flooding through my mind were the memories of past journeys, the laughter, entertainment and education I got from him, never to be shared again. A life well lived and ended too soon.

My favorite Adam the Woo video was his final walkthrough of the old remnants of Disney-MGM Studios before Streets of America closed. I learned a TON from all of his explorations and adventures!

THIS. IS. AMAZING. I've been to DHS since MGM opening & I hardly knew a fraction of what he (creatively!) revealed

Gives me the chills on many levels.

It is extremely sad but I'm not going to say he was trying to eat healthy. Unfortunately his diet recently was terrible, and his lifestyle was not doing him any favors health wise. At 50something you cannot just eat greasy fast food daily and expect no consequences. The people who supported his every move and never urged him to seek medical care (he hasn't been looking well in recent videos) should be ashamed because they should have spoken up and encouraged him to take better care of himself. I didn't watch him much recently (IMO, the content kind of went downhill at least for my liking) but I loved a lot of his older stuff. Either way, RIP Adam.

Adam is in Heaven. A life well done.

The Earth is less fun, happy, kind now. We on Earth weep for OUR loss. We on Earth lost another beautiful person.

I hope Adam in heaven picks up where he left off, doing Heaven's equivalent of YouTube; exploring all the nooks and crannies of Heaven, documenting the beehive of heavenly activities.

God bless Adam and his family.

Join me shall you? Someday, I hope so Adam, I hope so...

Why does any of that matter now??? No one is perfect nor is anyone guaranteed tomorrow. Why not just mourn the loss and remember a life well lived?

I just want to wish everyone here a very Happy Christmas Eve.

We are not guaranteed tomorrow, so if you are celebrating the season right now, with your loved ones (family, friends, chosen family), take a moment to look at them all, love them, hug them, and be in the moment.

Merry Christmas friends

Not gonna lie, I'm taking this harder than some friends and family members I've lost. Not sure why, as I never met him (not for lack of trying ). I guess he's like extended family to all of us who've enjoyed his content over the years.

I will say one thing, he definitely lived life to the fullest. Watching Justin and Jacob's videos today really had me in my feelings. I always knew that when there wasn't an upload of his without him announcing it beforehand, it wouldn't be good news but I never thought it would be so soon.

Seeing how many people's lives he touched...man, that's awesome.

I don't know...I really didn't get into YouTube until I discovered Tim Tracker and then Adam and now that Adam is gone, I find myself hard pressed to watch any of the content I subscribe to for some reason.


Adam, thanks for taking us on all of these zany journeys without even asking our moms. Aw s*** son...

I think it’s affecting many of us because Adam represented almost all of us. If we are on this page we enjoy travel and visiting theme parks and many of us have other niche interests that dive into nostalgia, classic Americana, etc.

There’s also something truly inspiring about someone using an iPhone to build a brand and a platform the way he did while being 100% authentic to who he is.

He had so much optimism for 2026 with plans on driving Route 66 etc.

I loved watching him and Carpetbagger for all the non Disney stuff. You don't realize how much is out there to see and do across the US.

I will be planting some petunias in memory of Adam the Woo.

Well done! I got a piping hot caffeinated beverage on the way to our Christmas celebration today in his honor.

 

[Bullseye1967]

I just talked to a mutual friend and the person who played Grinch in his last video was Dune Buggy Jim. He was also the guy who played Chewbacca in his life day videos. I really feel like that video was a fitting end to his vlog life. Adam did very little small, and his last video was big!

 

[mitchk]

Such a shame, I got to meet him one time. I think it was still downtown Disney just about to be converted over to Disney Springs. I can’t remember… But he was the one who started my love of urban exploring. He was a true pioneer and will be greatly missed

It's going to be a bit rough after xmas. With the timing of all this, everyone is busy with holiday activities, travel, etc....but I weirdly subconsciously feel like when my routine returns to normal, Adam will again be a part of it. Obviously family and friends have the largest hole in their lives, but it's going to be an adjustment for many who he brought joy to.

He was a guy that had so much energy built up, I thought he might spontaneously explode on camera one day. Yet it was funny, he thought he always needed caffeine via his hot caffeinated beverage and/or double down with Mountain Dew!

In a tragic and beautiful way, I agree. While his last video could have easily been a theme park review, a walk and talk, etc. - to have his last video feature his home, his neighborhood, but also really showcase his unique sense of humor is indeed very fitting.
