Brooklyn's Dead Horse Bay is a unique and beautiful spot in New York City that has an unreal juxtaposition of a beautiful, serene beach, with mountains of vintage trash, bottles and metal. In this short video from YouTube channel Find and Seek, take a stroll down the beach and see all it has to offer.

Dead horse bay gets it name from the fact that it was originally used as a horse rendering plant ( turning horses into glue) . If that wasn't gruesome enough the location was then turned into a landfill, and thus the reason for all the old and strange objects burred in the sand.
