A brief stroll down the side of a huge park in Glasgow, Scotland, called Death Park. Or more accurately Queens Park. The Death Park name was given to it by the media industry due to the number of rapes, muggings and murders that take place in it.
This video is just skirting down part of one side. I was inspired to do this because I quite like watching random clips on Youtube of people strolling through American parks.
My apologies for the wobbly image. I was using my phones camera and most of the walk was on hard ground on a gradient making me a bit heavy footed. Youtube has done an amazing job of smoothing out the serious camera shake, but has struggled a bit due to the severity of the movement at times. Maybe I should get some sort of basic steadicam device if I'm going to do stuff like this in the future.
Although the park is dangerous at night, it's a beautiful place by day. A real pleasure to walk through.

Thanks so much for posting this – a bit of a nostalgic experience for me. As a boy in Pollokshields circa 1960, I used to frequent Queen's Park often with my friends and alone. Am sorry to hear that the place of my idyllic boyhood wanderings is now nicknamed "Death Park", and that where we played innocuous Cowboys & Indians games is now the scene of more pernicious happenings. Hope that changes soon.
Just started watching Big Clive's vids a couple of months ago on recommendation from my electronics obsessed brother, had no idea he'd been making YouTube vids for so long. I'm from west London our parks are full of dog and human turds among other miscellaneous ones probably fox or cat. I take my kid to kew gardens as its the only one thats dog\human poo free, (annual membership is about £80) its what my mum did with me when i was a kid too, for the same reason. It does have badger poo in it tho but at least its not full of broken glass.
I'm not sure if it was this park or another but I was there at night with a friend and they wondered off, by the time they came back covered in blood it turned out they were mugged and glassed, tit
I was born in the bottom flat furthest left shown at the beginning of this video. I believe the place was robbed at least 5 times while my parents lived there.
EDIT: additionally the top flat caught fire at one point because of the cannabis farm up there.
Hello Mr. Clive sir. Thank you for the stroll through "Death Park", it was quite nice. I have always wanted to visit your country. I am very pleased that you are so versatile in your videos. Blessings, pierre from New Mexico
Absolutely beautiful park.
Clive, you should do a walk around with commentary of 'Bloody' George Mackenzie's tomb in Edinburgh. Now that place is creepy 24 hours a day. (Even if only by reputation)
I like this idea, and narration… though the video artifacts 🙁
Any chance of a re-visit? Yes, in the rain….
exciting. i wonder if he got raped too.
