9/11 was an event which changed the world forever. On the 9th of September 2001, two planes flew into the twin towers of The World Trade Centre and the devastation left in the wake of the attack was enormous.

But the mastermind behind the cult, wasn't their leader, it was his second in command. When she started making decisions on behalf of Rajneesh, things would go from 0 - 100, pretty darn quickly. From murder ...

Joanne Dennehy has killed three men in the space of a few days but that's not enough for her...she wants more.

After murdering her third victim, she knows time is running out and that the police will soon be on her tail...but before she gets caught, she wants to add a few more victims to her list...this time, they will be completely random and in a town she doesn't even live in. Joanne and Gary Stretch are off on a murder spree...

Joanne Dennehy was a normal girl growing up in Harpenden in the 90's. When she hit pubert, something changed. Joanne went from a calm and mild mannered girl to someone her family didn't rcognise. She got into drink, drugs and boys and started dating an older man.

Somewhere in the night sky near Portland, Oregon, a man is floating into the black. He's just stolen $250,000 in cash and jumped out the back of a commercial airliner.

But what happened to him next has perplexed people since the night it happened in 1971. But decades later, are the FBI any closer to solving the case? The list of suspects is as long as your arm and your leg...and your dog but recently, evidence has come to light whic...

Why Did D.B Cooper Jump From A Plane Mid-flight And Did He Survive? In 1971, a man made headlines after he boarded a plane with a bomb and told the flight attendents to do whatever he asked or else he'd set it off. They obliged and D.B Cooper asked them to get a huge amount of notes delivered to an airport where he'd let his ignorant passengers go.

Perhaps the calmest hijacking ever, D.B was polite and curteous to the staff who did ...

In April 1986, the world changed when the Chernobyl nuclear disaster happened.

On a dull morning in 1986, some workers in Stockholm, Sweden, were getting ready for a normal day inside the nuclear power plant they worked in but that would soon change. Not long after the start of the day, one worker found that the geiger counters they had to pass before entering the unit went off, suggesting that they were radioactive.

After testing and retesting the machine for faults, the workers realised they were telling the...
