Picher kid here. Woulda been class of 2010. The buyout happened first. Alot of kids were given alot of money in trust because of the lead poisoning, some I knew got half a million dollars as compensation but weren't allowed to touch it until they turned 18. Most of them blew it. My family didn't get anything, on account of us living in a trailer on someone else's land. My last year in Picher was in the 8th grade, started freshman year at a new highschool. All my friends went to other schools, it was a rough transition. Then during my sophomore year at the new school, the tornado hit. I thought it was lucky the buyout happened first. Some people refused to leave, and they were predominantly the only ones directly affected. I remember one of the teachers at the new school still lived there. He lost people.

Hometown of Mickey Mantle. He almost ended up working in those mines instead of becoming a Yankee legend.

I’m a Trucker and I’ve hauled several loads of bagged product from Picher that was used in the manufacture of paint. The paint is used on those big windmills on those windmill farms that generate electricity. That entire town is sinking. The network of tunnels under Picher are collapsing. They say during WW2 that billions of bullets were made with the lead extracted from Picher, OK.

I visited there once to see it. You feel sick after like 20 minutes if you get outside the car. Place is crazy

My hometown... I miss that town... 💔

I live about 20 minutes from here. The main reason people started leaving was because of a big tornado that tore the town apart. That and the fact that the lead they were digging out made the ground unstable and liable to collapse made everyone leave pretty fast.

My grandfather was from Cardin in the 20’. My great grandfather was an engineer for the mining company. I went through there in the early 2000’s with him before he passed, there wasn’t much there.

My sister used to work with OU during her PhD studies to help develop cleanup solutions for those massive piles of chat (the big, dune-like pile near the beginning of the short). She once told me that 20 trucks, working 24 hours a day, would take over 70 years to remove all of the contaminated chat. Sadly, many pavement and concrete companies have expressed desire to purchase it for use in roadways and such.
The saddest reality of this contamination is the fact that nobody told the parents of children in the area that those piles of chat were so contaminated and the kids used to play on them like they would sand dunes.

Then the town right by this one , in 2017 government did a bio testing to see if poison if released would it enter the home. We all got sick from that . I thought I was going to die !!!!!!!! Little Indian town imagine that 😮

Everyone forgets Picher got hit by an EF-4 tornado which ended the town once and for all

I’m from NE Oklahoma. It’s so sad to see what has happened to Picher all due to contaminated water. A classmate of mine did a science project on the toxicity of the water and the color was a putrid brown and stunk so bad.

Check out Blackwell oklahomas smelter history. I grew up there and remember controversial clean up happening around 08 to 2012 summer. There was some shady dealings By what many of the locals called corrupt officials in local law enforcement and the local leadership all the way to the mayor and city manager of the time. As for the local law enforcement you don’t have to look far to see the same officer making headlines. He was well known for abusing his authority on minors. Not to mention the missing person Shannon ebert last scene running from the same officer towards the river east of town he wasn’t found for several years later near tulsa in a body of water the river leads to.

I helped close the post office there. They only had 12 post office boxes rented and most of those people lived in another town
