A Drone Flew High Above An Uninhabited Island In Michigan And Caught The Most Incredible Footage
The introduction of drone video technology has allowed curious explorers to experience some of the world’s most incredible attractions from new heights. This has been especially true here in the Great Lakes State, where drone videographers have explored everything from sand dunes to abandoned buildings, often revealing previously unseen gems or providing insight into longstanding Michigan mysteries. If you’re enchanted by drone footage, there’s one video from YouTube user Eddie Verhamme that will completely capture your imagination. Get ready to embark on a fascinating virtual adventure.

At the heart of Poverty Island is its now-defunct Poverty Island Light Station, which sits in disrepair and adds an eerie vibe to the surrounding landscape. This eerie vibe isn’t entirely without supporting evidence: throughout the years, Poverty Island has been home to its fair share of strange, downright spooky occurrences. According to a piece from MLive, many former lighthouse keepers and assistants have faced untimely deaths after becoming affiliated with the light station. In June 2019, further misfortune befell the 200-acre island, which was struck by on-and-off fires throughout the land. This drone video offers unique insight into the island's rugged natural beauty, which is only enhanced by its mysterious past.
