Speaker 1 (00:03):
A woman disappeared last year, and she was gone for
five days, and she was interviewed by a physician and
told the physician that when she was in the woods,
there were strange little people that were looking at her,
hiding behind bushes, and when she asked them for help,
they wouldn't talk to her, and they wouldn't come out
of the bush, and they tried to conceal themselves. Along
the Appalachian Trail. There have been similar stories where a

(00:25):
woman was chased on the Appalachian Trail by men that
she could hear sometimes see, but ran for two weeks
trying to stay away from them. So there are these
small little quips about what happened that kind of give
me an insight as to what these people say happened.
But the reality is is that there's never enough there
to really say with a surety what transpired.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
A common tale among all the indigenous native people. Seemingly
throughout the world, stories of little people abound. The Irish
have their leprechauns, the Nordic folks have their gnomes and elves,
and many other societies and cultures share similar folk legends
and stories. The Cherokee, in particular, have a huge wealth

(01:17):
of myths and legends, some of which go back not
just centuries, but thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands of years,
to when the planet was formed and how all the
different systems of nature on our planet Earth work. The
ancient Cherokee, whom, as far as is known, were the
first people to inhabit the Great Smoky Mountains National Park,

(01:40):
They have a legend or a story for everything you
can imagine, animals, insects, plants, trees, flowers, herbs, mountains, creeks, lakes, rivers, etc.
Et cetera, ad infinitum. The rich oral tradition of the
Cherokee people have ensured that these tales are passed down
from generation to generation. Even in the twenty first century

(02:02):
of high technology. Their initiatives under way to make sure
that all the Cherokee legends and stories are recorded for posterity.
One of the most fascinating and eerie stories in the
Cherokee Legend repository are the various and numerous accounts of
what the Cherokee people call the Yunwei Sunsday, which roughly

(02:23):
translates into English as the little people and the stories
of old and even into modern day. These entities are
sometimes described as being from the ethereal plane, but other
times the Cherokee consider them to be a small human
like race of people about two to four feet high.
Some versions of the Cherokee legend even have the little

(02:45):
people initially arriving in the area board a flying silver disk,
so perhaps the little people of the Smokies are actually
little men from Mars. These little people of legend are
also believed to be shape shifters of a sort, and
use this to their advantage when deciding on what form
to assume. According to the Cherokee legends, each of these

(03:08):
little people can morph into three or four different types
of spirits or entities. While sometimes the little people can
be helpful, it seems they are especially good at finding
lost articles if applied with certain foods or drinks as
a reward, seeming to give preference to small children and
the very old and or infirm, these self same little

(03:29):
folk can turn meat and dangerous at the drop of
a hat if they are disrespected or feel like their
space has been intruded upon. Oddly enough, like the little
men Van Winkle came across playing ten pins in the forest,
the little people of the Great Smoky Mountains are said
to possess the very power to cloud the human mind,

(03:49):
resulting in confusion. They are even those among the Cherokee
tribe who believe that this is why people are at
risk of going missing in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
You've upset the little people and will be allowed to
wander the wilderness for your transgressions against them. A rather
chilling thought, isn't it. Said to have the aforementioned ability

(04:11):
to disguise themselves in a number of ways, the little
people have the ability to remain invisible and undetected in general,
unless surprised by the appearance of a human for example.
There are times, however, that they can and do choose
to reveal themselves to the populace at large. When this happens,
there's usually not a single sighting, but a sudden flap

(04:34):
or wave of sightings over a short period of time,
which then subsides. Some people claim that these mass sightings
only occur every generation or so. Then the little people,
satisfied that they have scared and confused the humans, go
back into hiding and enjoy their peaceful mountain ways. It
is also said in the stories and legends that the

(04:55):
little people live as close to nature as possible, which
would explain their f fondness for such beautiful wilderness as
we have here amongst the mountaintops and streams within the
Great Smoky Mountains. They seem to be very spiritual beings
by nature, and even when they do attempt to teach
humans a lesson, the lesson will contain certain aspects traits

(05:16):
they feel we need as a people, respect, kindness, and
above all, a joy for life and living. When the
little people are spotted by humans, it usually seems to
be because they are so enraptured with the activity that
they're involved in at the time. Some common examples of
sottings that the little people have them involved in dancing, singing,

(05:39):
or some form of drumming, or otherwise making nature music.
While there is no one particular place that is better
than any other to spot the little people in the
Great Smoky Mountains, the areas of the most untamed nature
seem like a best bed kid's cove, the north shore
of Fontana Lake, the Deep war Elton, loant Leconte, and

(06:02):
Klingman's Dome. Interestingly enough, these areas are also purported to
be among the most haunted within the National Park, and
also places where people have gone missing. Perhaps the spirits
of the natural and the spirits of the supernatural both
walk hand in hand among the dark forests and quiet
glens of this Great Smoky Mountains National Park. If you

(06:24):
do happen to be one of the few or fortunate
enough to spot the little folk, remember to keep your
distance and do not approach them, lest you be mesmerized
and left to wonder about the mountains. Perhaps forever, reverence
and respect should always keep you safe. While this may
sound a tongue in cheek to our modern ways and

(06:45):
means the cheroke he did and still do, take the
cautionary tales very seriously, sometimes avoiding certain places in the
mountains altogether. Hello friends now. It's often said that flying

(07:07):
is the safest way to travel. While plane crashes are
often highlighted by the media, the occurrence is extremely rare.
In fact, statistics suggests that you are more likely to
die driving to the airport than flying across the country.
According to a recent Hvington Post article, the past ten
years have been the best in the country's aviation history,

(07:29):
with only one hundred and fifty three fatalities To put
this statistic into perspective, the Associated Press determined it is
equivalent to two deaths for each one hundred million passengers
flying commercially. To pair that tiny fraction with the three
hundred thousand plus deaths from motor vehicles that take place
each year. With all this being said, it becomes no

(07:53):
surprise that when an accident or a crash does happen
involving any form of commercial aircraft, people want answer as
to what went wrong. On Christmas Eve nineteen seventy five,
one particular plane, Assessna highlighted by a man named Peter Gibbs,
departed from an airfield adjacent to the Glen Force, A
hotel of the Isle of Mull in Scotland, and has

(08:16):
left us with many perplexing, not to mention troubling questions
that have you had to be answered. This story has
come to be known as the Great Mull Air Mystery.
Peter gibbs almost lifelong passion for flying began right around
to the end of the Second World War. The fifty
five year old businessman and forged a reputation in property

(08:37):
development as the managing director of Gibbs and Ray. After
spending the day working on an investment in a hotel
on the Isle of Sky. Peter Gibbs sat down for
dinner in the restaurant of the Glen Forest, a hotel.
After he had eaten, he suddenly decided he wanted to
take his plane out for a quick night flight. Peter
Gibbs was a driven man with a no nonsense reputation,

(08:58):
and when the hotel staff tried to warn that this
would be a bad idea mainly due to a band
on knife flights in the area, and also there would
be no landing lights from the US as a guide
when coming back down, he reminded them that he wasn't
asking for their permission and could do as he very
well pleased with his own plane. Even the black and
moonless sky that night was no deterrent to him. After all,

(09:20):
he considered. He was stationed his girlfriend, Felicity Granger on
the airstrip of the flashlight, and he insisted this would
be enough light to provide him with a visual reference.
What could go wrong. It was nine thirty PM when
the couple headed for the airstrip. Hotel guest named David
Howett was there that night and witnessed what he would
later describe as a perfect takeoff. He said he hadn't

(09:43):
detected any signs of a malfunction or other problems. Felicity
waited for approximately half an hour before returning inside and
telling the hotel staff that Peter had not returned. Sleet
was now falling heavily, which made visibility extremely poor, especially
for flying an small plane. Hotel staff called in the
local police. When the authorities arrived on the scene, they

(10:06):
inspected the airfield for any signs of trouble that could
have count for the disappearance. They found nothing unusual. However,
the presuming the flight path also failed to give them
any hand of a problem. Due to the inclement weather,
which was only getting worse for the second Before they
could even start an official search for Peter Gibbs, a
decision was made to call off that search for the
rest of the night. The very next morning, Christmas Day

(10:29):
of nineteen seventy five, a full scale investigation was launched
into what could have possibly happened to Peter Gibbs after
he made his completely flawless takeoff from the airstrip the
night before, he still hadn't returned. While RAF and Navy
Air Service helicopters scoured the waters with sonar. Hundreds of
volunteers searched virtually the entire island on foot. Neither Peter

(10:54):
Gibbs nor the aircraft could be found. For the next
four months, speculation was rife as to his true fate.
The confusion and mystery ended the following April, when local
shepherd Donald McKinnon replaced one question with several more. On
a hill about a mile from the Glen Forest Hotel,

(11:14):
he discovered the fully clothed body of Peter Gibbs. It
was located about four hundred feet from the base of
the hill. He was in full view of anyone who
might have ventured onto the hill. This was really puzzling,
as the hill was part of the first search and
many searches thereafter, and nobody had obviously come across this
body or any scrap of evidence there before. The only

(11:37):
injury to the body was a minor cut on one
of his legs. Keep in mind, too, that this hill
where his body was eventually found was a place where
shepherd's roamed daily and nobody had seen him up there
until this point. There was also another question about how
Peter Gibbs could have ended up where he did. If

(11:58):
we are to assume that the plane did crashed into
the sea, he would have had to swim to shore,
climb up a sheer cliff base across the road that
led to the hotel, then had a quarter of a
mile uphill only to lie down and suffer the effects
of exposure. And as improbable as all that sounds, there
was no trace of seawater or marine microorganisms found on

(12:20):
his skin or his clothes. Some people even speculated that
Peter Gibbs left the aircraft in flight somehow. Because his
body showed no signs of major trauma. They believed that
he may have bailed out on his own accord for
some reason. Perhaps they speculated the plane developed a fault
during the flight. However, there was no signs of a

(12:41):
parachute anywhere near the body. If he did parachute out
of the cessna, then what became of the parachute. It
doesn't seem reasonable that he would go out of his
way to conceal a parachute and then return to the
hill to lie down and die. Plus, a parachute was
never found anywhere near the area all this took place. Also,

(13:01):
why hadn't he sought help or at the very least
found his girlfriend, Lizdey Granger, who was waiting there for
him and most likely very nervous and worried about him,
to tell her he was safe and give some kind
of explanation. None of this made any kind of sense,
and the investigators were getting no further in finding any
clues or answers to all those questions. One of the

(13:24):
main questions on everyone else's mind, though, was what happened
to the aircraft itself that was assumed that the session
was now at the bottom of the ocean somewhere. Was
this really very likely, considering the lack of a parachute
and also there having been no evidence on or near
him that either had even been in the sea. Eleven
years later, in September of nineteen eighty six, hopes were

(13:47):
risen that at least the play would be found. When
a pair of brothers named Richard and John Greeve were
out clamfishing. They came forward and stated that they found
a small red and white plane about one hundred feet
down on a seabed a kilometer or so off the
coast of open According to the brothers, it had the
registration number gash AVTN, and as best as they could tell,

(14:09):
the cockpit was empty. Both insisted that the wings had
been sheared off and the condition of the plane was severe.
A hole was found in the windshield and one of
the wheels had been ripped from its housing. The engine
was found a short distance from the fuselage. The entire
scene strongly indicated that this crash had been a very
violent one. Both doors of the cockpit were apparently locked

(14:32):
from the inside, though the only way out was by
the hole in the windscreen. When Savage Teams learned of
this discovery, they set out to retrieve the plane. Unfortunately,
they were unable to find it. The only evidence that
the brothers had indeed found it at all were some
blurry photos. However, none of these showed the registration number. Now,

(14:56):
there have been many theories over the years as to
what could it possibly happened to Peter Getved that faithful
Christmas Eve night. One idea was that Peter was actually murdered.
This theory suggested that his killer somehow manage to conceal
him or herself on board the plane without anyone Peter
Gibbs included knowing about it either during or Shortly after

(15:17):
this textbook perfect takeoff, the killer struck. Having done the deed,
the killer then faced the problem of disposing of the body.
The obvious solution simply opened the door and let gravity
take care of it somehow, though the perpetrator would have
had to accomplish this without causing any additional harm to
the corpse not very likely. It was also highly unlikely

(15:40):
because the area where the body was found was highly
traveled by the locals in the area. There were also
the aforementioned shepherds who roamed and traversed that very hill
every single day. It just is impossible that all these
people just happened to miss a corpse like on the
hill every single day for four months. Going back to

(16:01):
the theory of the killer, assuming for just a moment
that he or she actually did accomplish all the above
mentioned impossibilities, they would have had to have had to
abandon and dispose of the aircraft itself. If both doors
were locked from the inside, as alleged with the Green
Brothers and is seen on the aircraft photos found no
serial number on it. Think about that the doors were

(16:23):
both locked from the inside, So did the killer or
killers just hang tight hope for the best and remain
locked inside of the assessment while it crashed into the
sea and again crash which appears to have been very violent.
Not a very reasonable theory at all. While many theories
abound in this case, there is only one which most

(16:46):
people think is even actually feasible if you take into
Kate all the evidence were covered to back any theory
at all up, which wasn't much to begin with. This
theory says that Peter Gibbs lost sight of the airfield
and carried out his stated plan in such an event,
which was to fly as low and slow as possible
and jump out while waiting for police to arrive. His girlfriend,

(17:08):
Blizdiy Granger, mentioned that just before taking off, Peter had
told her that if everything went wrong, he would throttle
right back and jump to safety. Okay, from the moment
Peter Gibbs decided to indulge himself and take as Cessin
out on a whim that night, despite the protest of
at least a dozen well meaning hotel employees. There have
been so many questions and so much mystery surrounding the situation.

(17:32):
Even before he took off, there were reports of a
second set of lights on the airfield. Bilizdey swore that
she was alone during the takeoff, and also, even though
it was described as textbook perfect, the takeoff itself seemed
to take longer than was necessary if Peter Gibbs had
been distracted or busy with something. Another aspect of this

(17:54):
whole incident that cannot be readily explained is the condition
of his body. It was in remarking good condition, no
signs of decomposition or animal interference, but it was confirmed
that he had died all the night he disappeared. Everything
that is known or assumed about the Great Muel Air
mystery defines all attempts at explanation. Even now, some forty

(18:16):
years later, there are questions upon questions upon questions, and
none with any real answers. How did Peter gibbs corpse
end up on a much used hill four months after
disappearing with no signs of decomposition or animal predation. Was
it his plane that was found by the brothers, And
if it was, then how did he survive such a

(18:36):
violent impact with barely a scratch. Where would his corpse
have been during the first few months of that year.
In twenty thirteen, the Royal Navy admitted to the discovery
of a downed aircraft in the sea off O Ben,
supporting the brother's earlier claims. However, this wreckage was estimated
to be largely intact. Either the brothers were mistaken or

(18:59):
Peter gibbs plane is still somewhere waiting to be discovered
in the deep. We may never know the answers to
the mystery surrounding the last fight of Peter Gibbs, and
as we said, theories abound, only none seemed to tie
up even multiple details, let alone every single one. So
much would have needed to have gone exactly wrong for

(19:19):
Peter Gibbs to have ended up the way he did.
Many questions remained about the body as well. Where on
Earth could it have been For the first four months
or so that Peter was missing. It was definitely not
on that hill according to the locals. It had to
have been somewhere. There are many very strange theories out there,
ranging from a UFO encounter to an actual and full

(19:41):
blown alien abduction, but again, none of this could possibly
be verified even if he were to believe it. The
killer theory doesn't hold much water either, Despite many people
being said to have an axta grind with Peter Gibbs
himself at that point in his life. Nowadays two, with
all these fresh eyes looking into the investigation, some can't
help but be reminded of the young athletic and college

(20:04):
students going missing and ending up bound in nearby water sources.
These young men are missing for say ninety days, but
they've only been in the water for thirty or deceease
for forty. What do you think could have happened to
Peter Gibbs on Christmas Eve of nineteen seventy five. Do
you think there's a UFO connection or some sort of
connection to the missing phenomenon? Or perhaps you subscribe to

(20:27):
the killer or killers Lying in wait theory, or was
it something else altogether? Hello friends, and welcome to another episode. Today,
we're going a little bit deeper into the world of
the unknown. We'll be discussing the entity known as the
Black Flash that terrorized Provincetown, Massachusetts, in the late nineteen

(20:52):
thirties until nineteen forty. According to legends, the Black Flash
first appeared in the fall of nineteen ten thirty eight,
when children in Provincetown reported a sinister figure lurking in
the dunes or hiding behind trees. They described the entity
as being about eight feet tall and dressed all in black.

(21:13):
He wore a long black cape and black hood that
covered his head. Some children also said that he had
long silver ears and flaming eyes. At first, the adults
in town just dismissed these accounts of stories from kids
with overly active imaginations, but that changed when an adult
woman named Maria Costa encountered the Black Flash in October.

(21:36):
She was walking by the town hall when the black
Flash jumped out from behind the bushes and started to
chase her. She stated that the black Flash made a
strange buzzing noise, like a giant insect. Maria was terrified
and ran into a nearby coffee shop, where she hysterically
explained what happened. Several customers ran outside, but couldn't find

(21:57):
a trace of the black Flash he had sent vanished.
Other people also reported seeing the black Flash that fall.
One teenage boy ran to the police station after the
creature jumped out in him on his way home from
the library. The boy said that the creature was chasing
him and it spit blue flames at him. Alllong. He

(22:19):
was just within arm's reach. He goes on to say
that the creature could have grabbed him, but it seemed
it only wanted to torment him. The boy said he thought
the creature was trying to scare him to death. According
to reports, the Black Flash had the ability to leap
over tall fences and was even seen levitating. Local rancher

(22:41):
Charles Farley saw the creature lurking in his backyard. Charles
fired his shotgun at it, and the Black Flash just
made a buzzing and clicking noise and then was seen
jumping over a nearby fence that bordered the property and
led back into the woods and vanished from sight. A
few days later, the police were called and told that

(23:01):
the Black Flash was in a school playground which was
surrounded by a tall fence. Four officers entered the yard
with flashlights and pistols drawn. They got a good look
at the Black Flash and one officer swore his face
was really just a silver painted mask. They told the
Flash to surrender or they had fire, but the Flash

(23:22):
just made a buzzing sound and jumped over the ten
foot fence that surrounded the school. Then he once again
simply vanished before their eyes. The black Flash terrorized province
down and Hole for about seven years. The last time
the black Flash appeared was in December of nineteen forty five.

(23:43):
Four children from the Jernard family were playing in their
yard on Standys Street when they saw the flash creeping
toward them through the fog. They ran into their house terrified.
Their parents weren't home and they didn't know what to do.
They could hear the flash turning the doorknobs of the
house trying to get in. The youngest children hid behind chairs.

(24:03):
Let The oldest boy, Allan, builled a bucket with hot
water and ran up to the second floor. He could
see the flash outside right below him. He opened the
window and dumped the bucket of water on the flash's head.
The flash let out a startled gasp, and then slunk
off like a wet cat. And that was the last
time the black Flash was ever seen in Provincetown. Now,

(24:28):
all these stories may sound like an urban legend, but
there is evidence that something really did occur. On October
twenty sixth, nineteen thirty nine, the Provincetown Advocate printed a
front page article titled Fall Brings out the Black Flash
hard winter certain as cabin fever stories start to quote

(24:49):
from the article here, it is only October and the
Black Flash has been prowling, scaring kids so that they
won't go out nights and won't go to bed, grabbing
women jumping over ten foot edges with no trouble at all.
In another article released on November ninth, nineteen forty, the
paper ran a short follow up piece titled Chief denies

(25:11):
current Rumors. Chief of Police Anthony P. Tarbor's This Morning
absolutely denied the rumors current that the so called BlackFlash
had been captured. The Chief stated that, as far as
I'm concerned, the BlackFlash is dead and gone. Those are
the only two articles available that mention the Black Flash. However,
there are more accounts that have been written about and documented.

(25:35):
In the early nineteen eighties, the writer Robert Elis Cahole
visited Provincetown and interviewed many locals about the Black Flash.
Locals said that there were several theories about who or
what the phantom was. Some locals were convinced that the
Black Flash or some supernatural or paranormal in the origin,

(25:55):
while others thought he might be teenager John Williams, who
was quite fast and a weightlift. But although John Williams
was athletic enough to be the Black Flash, he was
a sailor and often at sea when the Flash appeared.
Francis Marshall, a retired Provincetown police officer, told Kahill that
the Black Flash was actually four men who terrorized the

(26:17):
town as a hoax. Marshall refused to divulge their names,
but said the two of them were already deceased by
the time he spoke to Kale. So was the Black
Flash really just a short lived hoax? Their interesting parallels
between the Flash and spring Hill Jack, a legendary monster
from England. Spring Hill Jack was first seen in London

(26:39):
in eighteen thirty seven. The last sighting was in nineteen
oh four. Like the Black Flash, spring Hill Jack was
described as a tall human figure dressed in black, often
with a black hood on his head. Some witnesses said
he had fiery red eyes, and others said he could
spit out blue fire. He was called spring Hill Jack

(27:00):
because he could jump so high people thought he had
springs in his shoes. All this is very, very similar
to the Black Flash. If you believe in the supernatural.
Were they the same entity or were people just telling
similar stories. It's been eighty years since the last sighting
of the Black Flash, and the majority of witnesses are

(27:21):
now deceased, so I guess we will never know the
truth of who or what the Black Flash was. With
that said, if he happened to be in Provincetown, be
sure to keep your eyes open for the Black Flash,
because he may just be back and waiting for you.
The cas To Ghost yacht mystery. On April twentieth, two

(27:45):
thousand and seven, a white Cat Moran was found drifting
eighty eight nautical miles or one hundred and sixty three
kilometers off the northeastern coast of Australia. Like the famous
story of the Mary Celeste, the crew of the Cast
two had mysteriously vanished with out of trace, starting an
enduring mystery known as the Ghost Ship of Australia. Search
and Rescue found the boat eerie upon entering it. An

(28:09):
inquest blamed misadventure and bad luck by the crew, but
what really happened is a question that will never be
fully answered, as fourteen years on and the crew's bodies
remained missing. Now the start of the cast too voyage
from Airily Beach was normal. The cast crew consisted of
Captain Derrick Dez, Charles Batten fifty six and James Alfred

(28:30):
Tunstead sixty nine, as well as Peter John Tunstead sixty three.
All three retired men lived in Perth in Western Australia.
They cast off from Airly Beach and Queensland, Australia on Sunday,
April fifteenth, two thousand and seven, and were heading for
Townsville on their way to Perth. It was an eight
week voyage. Townsville is around two hundred and seventy kilometers

(28:52):
to the north of Airly and the Great Barrier Reef
lies off its coast. They had previously left Shoot Harbor
just to the east and ended up in a because they
had a GPS issue. Baton had bought the CAS two
in two thousand and six for eighty thousand dollars and
sailed it a couple of times since then. After taking
a sailing course prior to the latest voyage, he took

(29:13):
horses in coastal navigation, radio and a first aid course.
The Tunstans were not nautical novices either, since they sailed
together from the time they were eighteen years old and
even worked in the radio rooms of the Volunteer Sea Rescue,
but they were inexperience on larger vessels. The last known
contact of the family members with any of the crew

(29:33):
was made one and a half hours after it left port,
when one crew member was contacted by his wife. Graham Douglas,
the boat's previous owner, had warned the men not to
leave the whit Sundy area because they did not seem
to have enough experience. He said. The men appeared nervous
about the trip, but anxious to get underway since the
original start date had been postponed because of bad weather

(29:54):
and the fact that they had trouble understanding the vessel's
Global positioning system. He was quoted as saying, I said,
if you're not ready, don't go. Now. Here's where the
mystery starts. The first indication that there was a problem
came on Wednesday, April eighteenth, two thousand and seven, when
a helicopter reported spotting the Cash to adrift in the
vicinity of the Great Barrier Reef. On April twentieth, maritime

(30:18):
authorities caught up with the boat and boarded it. Strangely,
no one was on board the vessel. John Hall, Queensland's
Emergency Management Office QEMO, said what they found was a
bit strange and that everything was normal. There was just
no sign of the crew. The QEMO revealed that the
boat was in serviceable condition and was laid out as

(30:39):
if the crew were still on board. Food and cutlery
were set out on the table, a laptop computer was
set up and turned on, and the engine was still running.
Officials also confirmed that the boat's emergency systems, including its
radio and GPS, were fully functional, and that it still
had a full complement of life jackets. There was also

(30:59):
a small bu boat still hoisted on the start of
the catamaran and the anchor was up. The only signs
that were out of the ordinary, other than the disappearance
of the crew, of course, was that the main sail
had been badly shredded and that there was no life
draft on board. It is unknown, however, whether there ever
was one on board. Rescue officer Corey Benson said that

(31:20):
he found an eerie scene when he was winched down
from a helicopter to search the stricken vessel. He saw
the discarded coffee cup in newspapers and found knives strewn
on the floor. My biggest fearit was being attacked by
somebody who did not want me on the boat. I
was one hundred and sixty kilometers out to see with
no backup. I didn't know if someone was going to

(31:41):
burst through a cupboard and go at me with a knife.
I saw the knives on the ground, but no blood
and thought, what the Then we began the search for
the cast to crew. Search and rescue efforts began on
April eighteenth, with boats and a Navy aircraft with infrared
capability looking in the vicinity many of the locations identified

(32:01):
in the video and data from the GPS system. At
the same time, Bowen Military Rescue launched a coastal and
island search. The next day, a full scale search and
rescue effort was launched, involving volunteer rescue units from several towns,
as well as the Townsville's coast guard, two rescue helicopters,
nine airplanes, and two commercial vessels. Doctor Paul Luckin, a

(32:24):
survival time expert, was consulted. He concluded that it was
unlikely that the men were still alive. If they were
still in the water, as they had probably gone overboard
three to four days earlier. The team still had hope, however,
that the men could have reached land, and continued searching
until four pm on April twenty first, when the air
and sea search was called off. Another coastline search was

(32:46):
launched on Monday, April twenty third, after some new information
had come in. With that search proof fruitless and was
called off on April twenty fifth. So now the investigations
into the Cash Too mystery began in earnest On February twentieth,
cast who was towed into Townsville Port for forensic examination,
and on the next day Sergeant Bardell and Sergeant Malloy

(33:08):
of the Queensland Police searched the ship for signs of
foul play. No evidence for this was found, and they
discovered that the cabin was neat and tidy, apart from
some magazines, a piece of newspaper, and a wine cask
which was like on the floor. It was later determined
that these items ended up on the floor while the
ship was being towed ashore in the sink or a

(33:28):
few butter knives and on a bench in the galley,
a plastic sheath of fishing knives was found they did
not appear to have been used recently. Under Desbatan's bed,
in a sealed container, the investigators found a firearm and
some ammunition, none of which was used. In a drawer,
they found an additional single bullet of the same caliber.

(33:49):
After analyzing data from the catamaran's GPS system, police deduced
that it had been steered in a northeast direction into
an area where rough seats were building on the day
of the departure. Later in the afternoon, the GPS dad
it showed it to be adrift. The investigators also recovered
a video recording filmed by James Tunsten on April fifteenth

(34:09):
at ten oh five am, shortly before the men disappeared.
The video showed Desbatten was at the helm with a
vessel under sail. The sea was shopping and none of
the men were wearing life jackets. Peter Tunstead was sitting
on the aft stairway of the boat fishing, and a
long white rope can be seen trailing behind the boat.

(34:30):
The video showed the coastline in the area, and this
helped investigators pinpoint the exact location of the ship. It
was in the area between Gumbrielle Island, Grassy Island and
Arment Island next began the inquest into the Cast two incident.
Between August four and seven, two thousand and eight, an
inquest into the men's disappearance began in the Townsville Corner's Court,

(34:52):
led by Queensland State Corner Michael Barnes. In total, twenty
seven witnesses were called to testify and one hundred and
seven piece of evidence submitted. Jennifer Batton testified that her
husband DEAs was an experienced and careful yachtsman, had been
around boats for twenty five years, and that he was
acutely aware of the need for safety. He had earned

(35:13):
his recreational skipper's ticket and a qualification in marine radio.
Every summer they traveled together to Rottnest Island on various
motor boats. Although Cast two was their first sailboat. After
they bought it, the couple took a six week sailing
course and then sailed Cast two around the Sundays twice.
Apart from a minor problem with a propeller, the trips

(35:34):
were without issue. Baton's wife also stated that the original
plan was to sail the cast too to Freemantle as
a couple, but that Baton was worried that just two
people aboard might not be safe. He decided to take
his neighbors brothers Peter and James Tunstead with him instead.
The trip was planned over several months and discussed daily
as they plotted routes for the help of a computer.

(35:57):
Jennifer Batton continued, they allowed themselves six to eight weeks
to get back to Fremantle, but because Dez and Peter
were retired, it didn't really matter how long they took.
They didn't want to sail at night for safety reasons,
and they planned the state reasonably close to the shore.
Although Batten was taking medications for high cholesterol, mild diabetes

(36:17):
and had suffered a heart attack at age fifty, she
believed that he was well enough and fit for the journey.
Also heard at the inquest was Graham Douglas, the previous
owner of the cast Too, who sold the boat to Baton.
He stated the boat was in good condition when it
was sold, and that he had met the men on
the night before they set sail. He also helped the
men plan part of their route and was surprised to

(36:38):
see that, according to the police, the men had deviated
from their planned route that was programmed into their GPS system.
Gavin Holland, the skipper of a commercial fishing vessel called
the Jillian, testified that on April sixteenth, two thousand and seven,
while fishing on a reef off Bowing, he and his
crew saw a white yacht with a torn sail drifting
sideways between the reefs through a narrow passage up to

(37:00):
three kilometers per hour in a north northeast direction with
the current. He came within fifty meters of the boat,
but was unable to spot anyone on board. This was
two days before the coast guard spotted the cast who
had drift off the coast of Townsville, and the day
after authorities believe the men went missing. Allan found it
odd that a sailboat was in an area noted for

(37:20):
its shallow water and rocks. He didn't attempt to contact
the boat or the authorities. However, Allan told the inquest
that it did not occur to in that the crew
of the yacht might be in distress, and went on
to say it did seem a bit strange to me,
but I just have this rule that no one goes
near another vessel. Sergeant Paul Molloy, one of the three
forensic police officers who examined the cast too after she

(37:42):
was towed back to shore in April two thousand and seven,
told the inquest that he did not believe the men
had met with foul play. He spent several hours combing
the ship for signs of a struggle, but found no
evidence that anyone besides the three man crew of the
vessel had ever been on board. We came to the
conclusion the boat itself was not a crime scene, he
told the inquest. After questioning by Peter Tunstain's widow Francis,

(38:04):
as to why the police did not check for fingerprints,
Sergeant Malloy said his years of experience told him it
was not necessary. He says, we were there for a
long time. We pulled the boat apart and found nothing untoward.
If there was any indication of foul play, we would
have taken every measure we could to examine that boat.
And now the conclusions reached for the end quest, state

(38:25):
corner at Barnes and Mintz in his official report that
he cannot be so definitive about the circumstances under which
the deaths occurred. However, based on the eyewitness accounts, the
video found on board, and the state of the yacht
in which it was found, the report proposed the following scenario.
On Sunday, April fifteenth, two thousand and seven, at ten
oh five am, the cast who was sailing in the

(38:47):
vicinity of George point up to that moment everything was
going as plan, but in the following hour their situation
changed dramatically. The men hauled in the white rope that
was trailing behind the boat and belted a boat on
the fore deck, possibly to dry next to the locker
it was normally kept in for reasons unknown. James Tunstead
then took off his t shirt and glasses and placed

(39:09):
them on the back seat. The report says that since
the men's fishing lure was found entangled in the ship's
port side rudder, an obvious explanation would be that one
of them tried to free the lure and fell overboard
while doing so, standing on the boat's sugar scoop, which
is a platform at the back of the ship close
to the water line, while the boat is moving as
perilous and falling in as easy, but getting back on

(39:32):
board from this predicament is almost impossible. While the other
men came to the rescue of his brother, while Batten,
still on board, started the motor and realized he had
to drop the sails before he could go back for
his friends. As he left the helm to drop the sails,
a deviation of the ship's course the wind direction could
have easily caused a jibe, swinging the boom across the

(39:52):
deck and knocking Batton overboard. This could even have happened
before Batten was able to untie and throw out the
life ring to his friends. A blue coffee mug found
near the life ring may support this. Since the boat
was traveling before a wind at a speed of fifteen
kilometers per hour, it would have been out of reach
of the men within seconds. In fort States, from that

(40:15):
point the end would have been swift. None of them
were good swimmers. The seas were shopping. The men would
have quickly become exhausted and sunk beneath the waves. The
report ruled out foul play and stage disappearance. Other explanations
for the disappearance of the cast two crew included weather.
According to authorities in Tasle, the weather had been windy

(40:37):
and the sea had been rough between the time that
Cast two departed and was found drifting. This led authorities
to speculate that the crew may have experienced some form
of sudden difficulty during rough weather and gone overboard. However,
one issue with this theory is that the contents of
the cabin, including a table, did not seem to have
been disrupted in any way. Relatives of the missing men

(40:59):
say that the boat's condition makes this unlikely and point
to discrepancies such as the fact that the men's fishing
lines and laundry were set out and that their life
jackets were still stowed, which indicates that they were not
experiencing rough weather at the time of their disappearance. Another
theory was that the crew may have been kidnapped. Also
noted was the fact that the cast to was found

(41:20):
with the fenders out, leading to speculation that the boat
may have been docked with another, as yet unknown vessel
to which the crew might have willingly or unwillingly transferred.
Hope Hemming, niece of boat owner Desbatten, said the fenders
were out on their yacht and the only reason you
ever put them out is when another boat comes aside,

(41:41):
or if you want to come to rest against the wharf.
The Townsville police said small craft commonly leave their fenders
out at all times, making it impossible to draw any
definitive conclusions from this fact. Yet another theory faulty GPS.
Volunteer radio operator Ivan ORMs recorded that Cast two radioed

(42:02):
in at six forty five pm on April fifteenth, giving
its position as George Point. This is the last known
contact with the Cast two. It should have taken them
a short time to reach George Point, and that's unclear
what took them so long to arrive there. One explanation
is that they were just fishing the whole day, But
another explanation is that they had problems with their GPS,

(42:25):
since they already tried to set off on April fourteenth,
but were forced to return then because of the non
functioning GPS. That incident was because of a user error
and it was easily fixed, so set off early the
next day. Yet another theory points that they may have
been lodged on a sandbar. Perhaps the catamaran became stuck

(42:45):
on a sandbar near George Point, where the boat's last
radio message was made when the men jumped overboard to
push it free, the gust of wind blew and the
boat drifted away, leaving them stranded. This would explain why
towels were left out on the deck. Also a theory
about a freak wave. One crew member may have been

(43:06):
washed over by a freak wave and the others were
lost trying to rescue him. But then, if it were
a freak wave, why the shredded sail. Some other lesser
theories include suggestions that the men staged their own disappearance
for insurance purposes, and one of the wilder theories was
that some kind of paranormal event had happened to bore
their catamaran, or it had been attacked by a whale

(43:28):
or giant squid. Maybe they were even abducted by extraterrestrials.
Some unanswered questions on the cast two mystery or as followers,
Why was the jibsail shredded? The triangular sail called the jib,
one of the so called headsails on a modern boat,
was completely shredded when the camaran was discovered. What happened

(43:51):
to it? The coroner's report mentions as he left the
helm to drop the sails, a deviation of the ship's
course or wind direction could have easily caused a jib
swinging the boom across the deck in knocking bat and overboard. However,
such a jibe would not have caused the damage to
the jib that was found. One ton boulder called Wizard

(44:11):
Rock disappears in Prescott National Forest, then suddenly reappears. Forced
officials in Arizona were mystified this past October when local
landmark Wizard Rock, a one ton boulder, suddenly vanished from
Prescott National Forest. The Wizard Rock, a distinctive black boulder
mark with striking lines of white quartz, as a well
known local landmark along State Route eighty nine in Prescott

(44:33):
National Forest near the center of Arizona. In addition to
being an admired natural monument and stopping point for tourists,
the Wizard Rock is also a hefty formation, estimated to
wear around one ton, so park officials were shocked to
find it had gone missing. But it gets stranger. Two
weeks after the Wizard Rock disappeared, it mysteriously reappeared to
the exact spot and position, almost like it had never moved.

(44:56):
In addition, park services stated that there were no visible
marks on the ground to suggest it was moved by
a large piece of equipment. I was of December twenty nineteen.
The disappearance and reappearance of the Wizard Rock remains a mystery.
Curious force snaps hundreds of trees in Washington near Olympic
National Park. An unexplained incident happened near the forest of

(45:19):
Olympic National Park on the shores of Washington State and
Park Service officials and scientists have been left baffled by
a lack of definitive explanations. In the early morning hours
of January twenty seventh, twenty eighteen, an extremely powerful force
of some kind knocked down over one hundred trees along
the north shore of Lake Quinnon on Washington's Olympic Peninsula.

(45:40):
While high winds or some other meteorological phenomenon was immediately
assumed to be the cause, weather data show that nothing
out of the meteorological ordinary occurred. So then what exactly
happened in the woods of Washington that morning? To make
matters even stranger? On Friday April fifth, twenty nineteen, twenty
six power poles came crashing down in a cascade in

(46:00):
effect and took Willow, Washington. The terrifying incident was recorded
and shows one of the power poles crashing through the
roof of a passing vehicle. I would like to stand
here and tell you that I know what caused it,
but I don't. We've ruled things out, but we've not
ruled anything in. Seattle City Lights CEO Dever Smith said.
Seattle City Light says they ruled out lightning and weathers causes,

(46:21):
but as of today, this incident also remains a mystery.
Lost Boy Larry. On seven August nineteen seventy three, New
Mexico CBE radio operators heard the disturbing pleas in Christ
for helped from a little boy by the name of Larry.
He said he was trapped in a red and white
pickup truck with his father, who had died, possibly of
a heart attack. He said he and his father had

(46:43):
been rabbit hunting when his father collapsed on the steering wheel,
and as a result, the truck had flipped into a
ravine where the doors became jammed, making it unable to escape.
The messages were reported to the local authorities, and the
police launched the search for the little boy in the
foothills of New Mexico and near the Petroglyff National Monument.
Despite the fact that some people thought it was a hoax,
the police took it seriously. It was definitely possible that

(47:05):
this child was somewhere in the desert. However, Larry had
no idea where he was. He was struggling to answer
questions and became confused easily. Some people thought that perhaps
he had a head injury. He said his legs and
knees had been hurt in the crash. By the second day,
Larry was not transmitting regularly. Other people joined in the
conversation on the CEB radios. Some of them were concerned

(47:26):
citizens who honestly wanted to help. Others were hecklers who
wanted to make fun of Larry. By the third day,
Larry's voice was growing weaker. He said that his father
had moved it all and searchers were sure the man
must be dead. On the fourth day, Larry's voice was
growing very faint, and he said he knew he wasn't
going to survive. Shortly afterwards, Larry's transmissions faded away and

(47:48):
he was never heard from again. The signal was heard
in Arizona, California, and Wyoming. He was switching between channels,
desperate for somebody to help him. Those that spoke to
Larry are adamant that it was not because of the
emotion and terror in its voice, but others caught a
hoax and suggests that after forty years something surely would
have been found. Strange structures in Santa Fe National Forests.

(48:12):
Forest Service officials and park rangers in the Santa Fe
National Forests have discovered numerous mysterious structures which have them
scrambling for explanations. The structures range in size but have
all been constructed out of fallen trees and limbs, with
some reaching over twenty feet tall and dozens of feet
in diameter. Whoever or whatever is building the structure seems
to be accelerating its efforts has more and more have

(48:35):
been found in recent weeks. The Forest Service has no
idea who is building them or why, but their response
so far has been to dismantle any that are found.
Bigfoot's not going to be happy. The destruction of these
mystery structures is to mitigate the forest fire threat they create.
National Force spokesperson Julianne Overton says that whatever the structures
are for, they are dangerous for the park and its visitors.

(48:56):
They may have as many as a thousand pieces of
wood in them. The wood seasoned and dry, and the
design is similar to a classic Kindling pyramid, but on
a much larger scale and to exacerbate the obvious fire danger,
people appear to be using fire rings inside many of
the structures. While some of the structures appear to be
a rudimentary teepee like shape which could be used for shelter,

(49:17):
others appear to be a solid cone of wood. No
one knows who is building these structures or why, but
many have suggested they are the work of a cult
that uses the wooden frameworks for ritualistic purposes. Others claim
that Bigfoot is responsible for the structures, saying that some
of these logs are so large and heavy that no
human could possibly lift. Malone or even with the help

(49:37):
of others. Secret base for man eating aliens being built
in Tonto National Forest. The United States Department of Agriculture
has released a number of files about alleged alien and
UFO activity on land manageable the US Forest Service. The
US Force Service data was obtained by John Greenwald, founder
of the Black Vault website, who obtains and published, which

(50:00):
formerly confidential official data on aliens and UFOs. Record to
the service's Southwestern Regional office in Albuquerque, New Mexico detail
of bizarre call from an alleged witness to the construction
of an alien base in the Tonto National Forest near Phoenix, Arizona.
An email was sent by the department to all rangers
on December thirty, twenty thirteen, detailing the extraordinary encounter. The

(50:23):
email said David received a call this morning at the
front desk from a mail caller reporting the construction of
a secret government installation upstream from the Salt River Canyon
past Binal Creek, upstream from Roosevelt Lake. Caller claims to
have seen construction cranes coming out of the side of
the cliffs, miniature stealth planes and UFOs, aliens and people

(50:43):
working together at the site, and aliens eating people. He
found a severed head and claims to have pictures of
some of this stuff. Caller reported that he is sixty,
not crazy, and doesn't do drugs. He said he had
already called the office at the lake, but he didn't
know if those people were turning the other cheek or
maybe those people have been paid off. The records, who
do not detail if any action was taken in response

(51:05):
to the strange tip off, but the email added, please
let me know if there are any talking points to
be developed. I'm sure the Phoenix media will be all
over this. PS. David and I aren't doing drugs either.
There are long standing claims by alien conspiracy theorists that
there are aliens living here on Earth and the government
knows about it, but it's kept top secret from the
public for fear of what would happen if they knew. Bizarrely,

(51:28):
this is not the first reference to their being a
secret military slash alien base in the Tonto National Forest.
George A. Filer is a former US Air Force intelligence
officer who claims aliens and UFOs were actually aiding the
US during the Vietnam War. He is now the director
of the Eastern Section of the Mutual UFO Network or MUFAWN,
based in the United States, which is the world's largest

(51:49):
organization dedicated to UFO and alien investigation. In a series
of online reports known as Filer's Files, a man called
Scott Hagmann spoke of a base being in the National
Forest for scores of people have also gone missing. He
wrote The most major base that I've been able to
follow the craft towards is located in the Tonto National Forest.

(52:09):
I discovered this while camping in the Sierra on Chewilderness.
The UFOs kept flying down into the basin two minutes apart.
They flew low out of the southeast at about two
thousand feet above the terrain. During the daytime, a tens
used the area for training. Refueling practice also occurs here
both day and night. These areas have also been plagued
with several unexplained disappearances that have occurred in Coachies County

(52:33):
over the last thirty years. Cars are abandoned with people's id,
money and keys left behind. Alleged bases include a huge
underground when their adults, New Mexico about two hundred and
fifty miles from the Tonto National Forest, a base for
species of aliens not as tall whites within the Nellis
Air Force Base in Nevada, and also on Alien Slashed

(52:54):
military base at the top secret Area fifty one US
Air Force site, also in Nevada. The Air Force needs
such a large area of land because they gave some
of it to aliens to build underground bases, so they
don't accidentally encounter our person and kill them. Today we'll
be discussing the oddities, legends, and weird speculations regarding the

(53:16):
Denver International Airport. We ask that you please share the
links in the description box and share this video with
your family and friends on social media so we continue
to bring you more strange content. We also asked that
you use courtesy and respect for others in the comment
section while discussing this location. Now sit back, relax, strap

(53:38):
on your ten foil hat, and let's begin. Denver International
Airport is the largest airport by land masks in the
United States, and as twice the size of Manhattan, occupying
some thirty five thousand acres of land. It's located just
twenty five miles away from downtown Denver, and the airport

(54:00):
opened way over budget and far behind schedule in February
of nineteen ninety five. Although the airport is larger than
Chicago O'Hare and Dallas Fort Worth Airports combined, most of
it is flat land that is unoccupied, with the actual
airport itself taking up very little of the thirty five
thousand acres. Questions immediately came about as to why this

(54:24):
airport would cost almost five billion dollars to construct, and
why it was even needed in the first place. After all,
Stapleton International Airport, which is much closer to Denver itself,
was fully functioning already and seemingly much more convenient. The
justifications given were that the larger runways would cut down

(54:46):
on wait times coming in and out of the new airport. Also,
the more remote location made it so that there wouldn't
be as much noise disturbance in residential areas from planes
coming and going daily. Likewise, remote location was considered safer
than a residential area in terms of a crash during
takeoff or landing. Now those in charge of the airport

(55:09):
seem to actually purposely fuel these strange rumors, as they
never officially deny any of the wild claims, not even publicly.
Our first nefariesst rumor coming from DIA talks of who
or what was actually behind the construction. Many believe it
was directed by the nWo or New World Order. Those

(55:32):
who study such things point to the dedication marker which
credits the New World Airport Commission for building the airport.
If you're thinking this is merely coincidence, think again, as
even the airport's website fully admits that this organization doesn't
actually exist. There are also many strange markings all over

(55:54):
the floors of the airport which seem to some to
also be connected to the nWo. These markings are said
by some to represent a new strain of hepatitis which
will be used in biological warfare to get the world's
population under control. This being so, the New World Order
can microchip whoever's allowed to live. That way, the remaining

(56:17):
citizens can be monitored in an Orwellian fashion, therefore ensuring
the world never again becomes overpopulated, as well as also
ensuring the most powerful members of society survive the next
contrivance that has many of those with esoteric knowledge thinking
there's something villainous going on at this most esthetically pleasing

(56:38):
airport is part of the airport's forty piece art exhibit.
One of these is the Mustang Statue aka the Big
Blue Horse aka Blucifer. This thirty foot tall fiberglass sculpture
with its glowing red eyes, is said to represent one
of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Is it merely

(57:02):
a coincidence that the artist who created the statue was
killed two years prior to finishing it, when a piece
fell off and severed an artery in his leg. Despite
this malevolent mustang's bad reputation, it continues to keep watch
over all who come and go from Denver International Airport.

(57:23):
Rumors also abound regarding all the extra and seemingly unnecessary
space at the airport, with the most ominous one stemming
not from the time capsule buried on the property, which
definitely has symbols of the Freemasons carved into it, with
the Freemasons allegedly being linked to the Bavarian Illuminati, a
part of the nWo, but of the exorbitantly expensive however,

(57:46):
never actually working in since abandoned baggage claim area, it's
rumored to actually be a clever cover up for the
above ground entrance to the supposed secret tunnels and bunkers
which are said to exist below Denver International. Some are
quick to point to the bunkers as being in exchange

(58:07):
for the Illuminati bestowing the extra billions of dollars needed
when the airport went over budget during construction. These tunnels
are allegedly an underground layer for the Freemasons or the Illuminati.
Some speculate that when many of the original buildings meant
for the airport were not built properly, at least five

(58:28):
in total, instead of destroying them, the Freemasons took them
over and just built buildings on top of them, thus
giving them their own bunkers to hide in comfortably and safely.
When the aforementioned hepatitis outbreak, kids and the entire world
population is at risk for certain and sudden death, the
bunkers contained in these underground tunnels will be used to

(58:48):
house the world's most to lead and well to do,
leaving the rest of us to fend for ourselves during
a biological war. Now it is a fact that these
buildings do exist, and also they were just built over
and not demolished. There's yet another wild conjecture about those
who constructed these underground bunkers. It said some of the

(59:11):
secret underground tunnels lead directly to the North American Aerospace
Defense Command NORD, which is located only about one hundred
miles south of the airport in Colorado Springs. And who
would find this more useful than the evil and alien
lizard people. Yes, some claim these lizard people secretly run

(59:32):
the world, control the news media, and even take over
the bodies of our most beloved and most loathed celebrities.
These bunkers and tunnels would surely make it easier to
carry out their sinister plots against humans in secret, eventually
taking over the entire world and the bodies of the
world's most elite, therefore eliminating, some speculate, by eating the

(59:54):
entire human race. Our final look into a few of
the many strange notions surrounding the Denver International Airport is
the artwork and how it points to the apocalypse and
the end of the world. The first mural depicts, albeit
in a very bright and dazzling colors, a dead girl
lying in a coffin horrific scenes of trees, burning, animals

(01:00:17):
in glass cages, and crying children dispersing in all directions,
seemingly trying to get away from the terrible destruction depicted
in this giant mural. Another showpiece that is seemingly a
harbinger of the mass chaos and destruction the Illuminati and
nWo and possibly the Reptilians are to help bring about,
depicts a gas mask wearing soldier carrying a large firearm

(01:00:40):
and sword breaking havoc while a caravan of refugees flee
as presence and narrowly escape the cartage he seems to
be inflicting. There's also a depiction of a deceased child
in someone's arms, children sleeping right above the deadly soldier,
and a small child holding a teddy bear while hiding
and trying to stay out of this deathmonger's line of sight.

(01:01:04):
This mural goes on to convey the death of this
same soldier and many children celebrating above his body. Now,
while many consider this widely inappropriate to be looking at
when you're about to board a plane, those who study
the arcane will tell you these murals serve a purpose,
and that's the warness of what's actually going on in
and below Denver International Airport, as inevitable to most common

(01:01:27):
people as it may be. So what do you make
of all this? Regardless of how they're interpreted, these oddities
do absolutely exist within what many considered be the strangest
airport in the world. Today, we're going to delve a
little further into Saint Germain, who you may remember from

(01:01:47):
our episode about mysterious Mount Shasta in northern California. It
was on this mountain where occultist and author Guy Ballard
claimed to have encountered Saint Germain identified himself as an
Ascended Master after a series of meetings with the Ascended Master.

(01:02:07):
Alard claims he was able to channel Saint Germaine's wisdom
and plans for implementing the Seventh Golden Age, the i Am,
which Germaine stated would bring about a new age of
earthly perfection. But in addition to being an Ascended Master,
was Saint Germain also a vampire. Vampire stories stretched back

(01:02:30):
to France and the illustrious seventeen hundreds, but it was
a mysterious man who charmed the courts of Europe. The
Comte or Count Saint Germain was a very strange, extraordinary,
enigmatical character. He was a master of the piano and
the violin, could converse in six different languages, and his
skills as a conversationalist were unrivaled, a skill that is

(01:02:54):
nowadays a lost art. His wealth was unfathomable, gem's round
in his clothing, and no one knew how he came
into such wealth. No one knew anything about his family,
where he came from, or who he was. One of
his greatest passions was alchemy, and he was believed to

(01:03:14):
have an extraordinary talent for not aging. Maybe it was
his vast knowledge of cosmetics and herbs that kept him young.
The philosopher of Voltaire called him the man who knows
everything and who never dies. No one really knew his
true age. He looked about forty in all of his
portraits and continued to appear so for over half a century.

(01:03:39):
Although he was charming and engaging and graced the dinner
tables of many dukes and kings, no one had ever
saw him eat anything. He would only sip his wine
exquisitely and ramble on about everything from history to chemistry.
Fast forward to New Orleans, Louisiana, and there appears a
man by the name of Jacques Saint Germains every description

(01:04:01):
of the count above, around forty years of age, with
heavy money bags, the most fascinating of dinner guests, and
still a complete mystery. He would throw lavish parties and
invite the elite. Everyone would sit and raptured in the
conversation and food. But curiously enough, this Jacques Saint Germain

(01:04:22):
would never eat a morsel, only sip his wine. But
one night he had a lady stay a bit late
out on his balcony at the corner of Heurslaine and
Royal Streets. This Saint Germain grabbed her and tried to
bite her neck. She escaped by falling from the balcony
and then reported the incident to the police. When the

(01:04:44):
police came to investigate Jacques Saint Germain had vanished, they
searched his apartment and found tablecloths with large spotchous of
blood on them. They searched the kitchen, where they found
no sign of food or evidence that food had ever
been there. All they found were bottles of wine, and
after pouring themselves a glass, drinking it and then spitting

(01:05:06):
it out, they discovered that it was not only wine
in those bottles, but wine mixed with human blood. To
this day, this mysterious figure has his own occult, following
from Theosophus to complete weigh out their mystics. The count
was purported to die in the year seventeen eighty four,

(01:05:27):
although no one saw his death, and some claimed to
have seen him many years after this date. Nevertheless, he
disappeared from court life. In terms of murder, New Orleans rites,
among the highest has always been a notorious place for
missing persons. That is, it is a place where people
just disappear and no one ever knows what happened to them.

(01:05:51):
The blood of the French, Spanish, Indian, African, Creole and
English all mixed together here where the mosquito is not
so picky, or perhaps are the creatures. John and Wayne
Carter were brothers. They seemed to be normal in every aspect,
held normal labor jobs down by the river, and lived
on a street in the French Quarter. It was the

(01:06:14):
nineteen thirties, during the depression, and times were hard, so
a man worked all he could. One day, a girl
was reported to have escaped from the Carter brother's apartment
and run to the authorities. Her wrists were cut, not
enough to cause immediate death, but enough to cause their
blood to drain slowly over the next several days. The

(01:06:34):
policemen ran to the Carter's third story apartment and found
four other people tied to chairs with their wrists sliced
in the same fashion. Some had been there for many days.
The story was that these brothers had abducted these people
in order to drink their blood at the end of
every day when they came home from work. Police also
found about fourteen dead bodies. The cops waited for the

(01:06:58):
brothers to return, and when they did, it took seven
or eight of them to hold down the two average
sized men. A few years later, when the Carters were
finally executed, their bodies were placed in a New Orleans vault.
Cemeteries in New Orleans are quite picturesque. Not only are
they more ornate than the rest of the nations, but

(01:07:18):
they enter many generations of one family inside one vault.
Remains sift down into the bottom of the vault, and
when it's all rubble, a new body is slid inside.
Many years after the Carter brother's death, when they're replacing
some other Carter in the family vault, they discovered the
vault was completely empty. No John or Wayne. They were gone.

(01:07:41):
To this day, many sightings have occurred in the French
Quarter that matched the descriptions of these two brothers. Almost
exactly years later, an owner of their apartment saw two
figures that matched their descriptions outside on the balcony one night,
whispering to each other. Both figures jumped off the top
of the third story balcony and took off running. The

(01:08:04):
rumor is that if a vampire drinks of your blood
seven knights in a row, Then, and only then can
you become a vampire. Some of those found in the
Carter brother's apartment had been there over seven days. One
warped fellow named Philippe went on to become a notorious
serial killer, and of course he would do more than
just kill his victims. He was believed to drink all

(01:08:27):
thirty two of his victim's blood. During the colonization of
New Orleans, France was having a hard time getting women
to go over there. This was mostly due the fact
that the men originally sent were thieves, murders, and cupports
of every type in caste, not to mention Louisiana snakes, alligators, mosquitoes,
and deadly humidity. Eventually, some women were sent. Some sources

(01:08:52):
say there were nuns, while others say there were prostitutes.
But nevertheless a few of them made it them cough
Ship and Mobile Alabama. When they poureded there and were
told what type of riff raft they would be tricked
into marrying if they stayed on board. These girls had
the most interesting luggage, shaped like little coffins. So to

(01:09:15):
the New Orleans men's dismay. All that arrived in New
Orleans were three hundred of these coffin like suitcases. Some
stories say that they were empty, some say that they
contained the undead. These suitcases were reportedly stored in the
attic of a convent in the French Quarter, where they
still sit behind windows that are nail shut because they

(01:09:35):
have a strange habit of just opening for themselves. Years later,
in nineteen seventy eight, two amateur reporters demanded that the
convent's priests led the men to see the coffins. The priest,
of course, denied their entrance, so one night these two
men climbed over a wall with a recording equipment and
set up their workstation. The next morning, the reporter's equipment

(01:09:57):
was found stern about on the street outside, and there
on the convent's front steps were found the almost decapitated
bodies of these two men. Eighty percent of their blood
was gone. To this day, this unsolved crime baffled investigators.
They have it was the mysterious Saint Germain, a true

(01:10:19):
vampire whose bloodline apparently continues to this day in New
Orleans and beyond. Let us know what you think of
the comments below the mystery of the Tungostco event. In
nineteen oh eight, one of the most catastrophic, mind blowing
and mysterious cosmic impact catastrophes ever in the history of civilization,

(01:10:40):
occurred in Siberia. However, this event wasn't widely known outside
Russia until around the nineteen seventies. Even interested search parties
didn't learn about or even set foot on the scene
of disaster until nineteen twenty one. It didn't make front
page news in the papers when it happened because of
the extreme remoteness with that region of Siberia. Also at

(01:11:04):
play was the secretive, unsettled nature of Russia at the time,
which of course only heightened the many conspiracy theories surrounding
it to day. Even though there is much speculation and
controversy about what exactly the mysterious Tunguska explosion nineteen o
eight was. Based on recordings at meteorological stations at that time,

(01:11:24):
the seismic activity measured five point zero on the Richter scale,
and according to devices worldwide, the air compression wave went
twice around the entire planet, bouncing both times. The blast itself,
in whatever context it might have occurred, is estimated to
have been forty megatons, which is two thousand times the

(01:11:45):
force of the atomic bomb exploded over Hiroshima in nineteen
forty five. Even the asteroid impact that caused the Great
Marriage of Crater in Arizona some fifty thousand years ago
is only estimated to have been equal to three point
five megatones. The mass of the object has been guessed
at about one hundred thousand tons and about sixty meters

(01:12:08):
in diameter, but what exactly made up this mass is unclear,
although most agree it was probably a loose glove of
rocks and eyes. Tungus tribesmen and Russian fur traders happened
to witness the event from a relatively close range and
reported seeing a bright, flaming object coming in from the
sky an angle and then a giant bright blast. According

(01:12:31):
to semi witness accounts, a giant column of flame and
smoke arose in the air from the impact spot. The
force of the first heat wave and then the wind
blast was enough to flatten huts and knock people in
livestock airborne while burning and scorching them, and then back
down to the ground again. Forty miles from the blast center,
At a town called Vanavara, people were thrown into the

(01:12:54):
air by the shockwave. According to reports there, it shattered
windows and collapsed ceiling. Near the town of Kans, three
hundred and seventy miles from the blast center, had a
stop on the Trains Siberian Railway a training screm to
a halt when the engineer for it would be thrown
from its tracks by the violence, shaking as passengers re
jolted from their seats by the movement. The sound was deafening,

(01:13:16):
and there were reports of some people close by actually
becoming death from the event. A series of thunderclaps could
be heard even five hundred miles away, and although there
were some serious injuries, to date, there been no records
of human deaths from the event. A black rain showered
the immediate area afterwards. The substance was probably condensation mixed

(01:13:37):
with dirt and debris sucked up into the swirling bertext
of the explosion and then sped out again. The event
caused all kinds of climate changes around the planet. Dust
in the air at heights of from forty to seventy
kilometers caused high altitude noct lucence or night shining clouds
that illuminated much of the visible sky, mostly in eastern

(01:13:58):
Siberia and Middle Asia. Even in London at the time,
there are newspaper accounts of a night sky so luminous
that one could read by it. Decreed visibility was reported worldwide,
and in daytime the areas with the most polluted atmosphere.
It caused visible rings around the Sun's glare. Also, obviously,
brilliant sunsets were reported worldwide for weeks. The sight of

(01:14:23):
the impact has been excavated numerous times. Russian scientists landed
Koulik was the first to pave the area in nineteen
twenty one, but no evidence of a huge meteorite has
been found, although fragments of meteorite like elements have been
found in the area. More importantly, no impact crater of
any type has been located. The trees in what is

(01:14:45):
believed to be the impact sites epicenter were stripped of
their branches, but were oddly left standing amongst the miles
of charred and flat ones surrounding out from them, exactly
like the effects of the bomb dropped at Hiroshima, which
was also in air mone explosion. In the nineteen sixties,
a research troope identified four smaller epicenters within the large one.

(01:15:08):
Each of the smaller appicenters has its own radial tree
fall pattern, and each presumably was caused by individual explosions
during the chain of bursts. Most agree that all this
adds up to a meteorite that was made up of
bluesly conjoined materials, ice, rocks, et cetera, that exploded upon
reaching the Earth's atmosphere and obliterated into zay and untraceable pieces.

(01:15:29):
The force of this impact causing the immense destruction, The
size and magnitude of the blast destruction, and its location
and timing are frightening to ponder if it was a meteorite.
Is the only event in the history of civilization where
Earth has collided with a truly large celestial object, although

(01:15:50):
what occurred before recorded civilization and are likely to in
the far future or for grabs. If the object had
waited a mere few hours, the rotation of the Earth
would have placed itsen pack somewhere in Europe Boom, half
a million people wiped out in seconds who would not
have been able to see it coming at all. The
historical ramifications of such an epic catastrophe, not to mention

(01:16:12):
the theological ones are incalculable. The most notable theories throughout
the ages have been the following the loose commet slash
asteroid theory. This one is pretty straightforward and simple. Antimatter
it classifies as material with a reversed charge at the
sub atomic level. It is theorized to exist in very

(01:16:33):
small quantities floating around in our universe, and it has
actually been created by scientists and laboratories. However, when antimatter
meets up with real matter, it explodes. The theory here
is that some wayward drifting antimatter came in contact with
Earth and exploded when touching our thick lower atmosphere. An
explosion of this type would behave very similarly to the

(01:16:54):
one created by an atomic bomb. Many black hole. Some
cosmologists theorized that many black holes are created at the
birth of our universe and are just floating around aimlessly
like little horripool ripples, not big enough to swallow the
whole galaxies, but powerful enough to wreak havoc with anything

(01:17:14):
they come in contact with. Apparently, some filled a Tunguska
explosion could have been caused by one of these many
black holes. Passing through our planet like a ghost, blaming
Nikola Tesla. Some theorized that everyone's blood nutty Professor Nikola
Tesla was testing out some sort of weird fantasmagorical communication

(01:17:36):
device or super scary energy weapon, or even a death
ray and made of big whoops. Tesla was known to
be working on a sort of wireless torpedo called Intel Automaton,
which was a remote control boat he offered to the
US Navy for the purpose of carrying explosives to naval targets.
An airborne version of the tell Automaton device was under

(01:17:58):
development as well. Some also believe that if there was
a Tesla connection and it was a weapon test, then
he may have been pressured into it and then kept quiet. Additionally,
the theory that Tesla inadvertently caused a mass of explosion
when he was trying to get the attention of an
explorer for end in the area. Tesla was always fascinated
with the concept of wireless propagation, and he was known

(01:18:21):
to work on projected wave energy processes that could create
microcosmic invisible particles of concentrated energy that could be beamed
great distances, often resulting in electric fireballs, spherical plasmoids, or
ball lightning. Why not use it to get someone's attention
who's not near a telegraph service. A UFO inadvertently crashing

(01:18:44):
into the Earth and its nuclear powered engine exploding into smithereens.
This is one of the more popular theories among extraterrestrial believers.
Some have claimed that the remote location of the explosion
was obviously an act of humanitarian kindness on the part
of the aliens. They were going to crash and quickly
guided their greening craft into an area where there were

(01:19:04):
almost no civilians. Today, the Tunguska region remains a not
too hospitable desola ay of mosquite infested bogs and swamps
nestled between sort of beautiful hills. To reach the center
of the site, you're dropped off by helicopter or you
have to hike in. There have been a series of
weird ongoing biological consequences in the Tunguska region, presumably from

(01:19:27):
the nineteen oh eight explosion. Following the blast, there was
accelerated growth of biomass in the region of the epicenter,
and this accelerated growth has continued today. There also was
an increase in the rate of biological mutations not only
within the center but along the trajectory. Creepy abnormalities in
the rich blood factor of local event groups and native

(01:19:50):
people to the area for centuries have been found. Genetic
variations in certain local ant species are now being looked at,
and genetic abnormalities in the seeds and needle clusters of
at least one pieces of pine had been discovered there.
This is the strange story of the Little Boy and

(01:20:10):
his robot Grandma. On October first, twenty ten, three and
a half year old John Doe as he's being reported
and is relatives were camping by a popular fly fishing
location near Mount Shasta. Around six pm. The child's parents
realized their son had suddenly gone missing. According to mister Doe,

(01:20:33):
his youngster was there one second and gone the next.
They scattered the area he had last been seen in
complete panic. Stricken horror, After hours of feverishly searching, the
little boys still had not turned up. Now desperate, the
distraught father decided to call local police deputies in the
United States for service officers. Rescue personnel calmed the forest

(01:20:56):
well into the night, yet there was no sign of
the toddler. Five hours after John had disappeared, authorities found
him laid down on the brush directly next to the
trail that had been previously searched. He appeared to be
in a dazed, semi conscious state. Mister Missus Dowe attributed
this to exhaustion and were simply grateful their little one

(01:21:18):
returned physically unharmed. Medical staff gave full clearance, so the
freshly reunited family were permitted to return home. Everyone's lives
quickly went back to normal, Yet only a few weeks later,
the small boy would share a disturbing tale about his
terriforing ordeal. One day, Little John's grandmother, Kathy, who he

(01:21:40):
called Cappy, was playing with him. Suddenly, he looked towards
her and said that he didn't like the other Grandma Cappy. Confused,
she asked him what exactly he meant. Little John explained
that while he was lost in the woods, he'd been
taken deep inside a mountainside cave by woman he thought
was Grandma Cakey. She led him into a cool, dark,

(01:22:02):
spider infested room filled with motionless humanoid robots. Scattered across
the floor were dusty purses, guns, and other various types
of weapons, as John anxiously faced his grandmother, he noticed
an eerie light radiating from her head. In this moment,
he realized she was not his real granny. Grandma Cappy

(01:22:26):
firmly and stroked the boy to defecate on a piece
of paper. When he refused, she became increasingly agitated and
repeatedly requested him to do so. Eventually, the grandma look
alike succumb to frustration and moved on to a different topic. Allegedly,
she informed little John that he had been planted in

(01:22:46):
his mother's womb and was actually from outer space. Shortly
after this extraordinary account, she took the boy back outside
to a thicket and advised him to wait for help.
Upon hearing this disturbing story from her grandson, an outraged
Grandma Kathy called her son and demanded to know what
he was laying her grandchildren to watch on television. Mister

(01:23:09):
Doet lamented that he had heard an identical recollection only
a few days prior. Initially, the two chalked it up
to an overactive imagination. Yet the more Grandma Cathy thought
about it, the more Little John's story perplexed her. What
kind of TV show would feature some of the ludicrous
topics that the boy was describing. Even more chilling was

(01:23:30):
the idea that she might have some kind of doppelganger
assuming her identity in order to abduct innocent victims. With
those particular thoughts in mind, Kathy decided to share a
haunting experience of her own. Only a year before, she
had gone on a camping trip within close proximity to
where Little John's ordeal occurred. In the morning, she awoke

(01:23:52):
face down in the dirt. Somehow, she had been inexplicably
removed from the sleeping bag within her tent and transferred
a short distance away. Upon rousing, she felt an intense
pain at the base of her neck. Two punctured wounds
were present, and the surrounding skin was red and inflame.
Another friend who accompanied her on the excursion, suffered a

(01:24:14):
matching affliction. The pair originally attributed these injuries to a
possible spider bite. Both Kathy and her travel companion became
violently ill. In fact, she was so sick that she
could not even muster the strength to pack her things.
Her mind raised as she desperately tried to recall what
happened mere hours ago. Only one thing surfaced glowing red eyes.

(01:24:40):
While she was drifting into slumber, she remembered seeing several
creatures gazing through the darkness. At the time, she assumed
they were produced by a herd of deer. Following this
traumatizing outing, Kathy felt completely drained of her creativity and emotions.
Several months would pass before she felt like her old
self again. Admittedly, Grandma Campi would have dismissed her episode

(01:25:02):
had Little John not come forward with his first hand encounter. Now,
listeners to this channel are no doubt familiar with the
legends of lore pertaining to Mount Shasta that existed throughout
the centuries. We've done a video about it. The indigenous
peoples of the area chronicled the fallen race of prehistoric
giants that were set to inhabit the region. Others claim

(01:25:23):
beings known as Limerians used local caves as entrances to
an underground crystalline city called Telos. Some allege a large
energy vortex is present within the territory. In modern times,
there are many UFO and big Foot sightings reported each year,
though twenty six thousand visitors flocked through the severed mountain

(01:25:44):
from countries across the globe there have been an alarmingly
high number of curious missing person cases within this picturesque
terrain by Little John Doe's incident seems unbelievable. It's important
to consider the odd history and happenings afflicting this area,
and open mind may be the only thing that we'll
finally resolve this age old mystery. Well, folks, there you

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
