This week on Hysteria 51, we flex our mental muscles and our molars as we dive into a pair of stories that’ll have you questioning reality—and your dentist.
First up: Egyptian strongman Ashraf Mahrous has gone viral for towing a 31-ton ship with his teeth. That’s right—he didn’t just sink the competition, he hauled it. Conspiracy Bot now thinks flossing is a form of weight training.
Then, we unwrap a truly bizarre tale from the ancient world: newly discovered mummies in Morocco don’t share DNA with modern humans. Are they lost ancestors? Interdimensional visitors? Or just the original weird uncles of prehistory?
It’s muscles, mummies, and mysteries in this week’s whirlwind of WTF. Grab your protein shake and your tinfoil hat—things are about to get prehistorically powerful.
Listen now before the mummies make a comeback… with gym memberships.
