As a Pittsburgh area native, I grew up with tales of No-Face Charlie/ Charlie No-Face, who had been infamous in my Baby-Boomer parents' youth... It's amazing and heartbreaking to learn the true details of this man's tragic existence.

[@Linda-vw8xu]

I grew up in the immediate vicinity of Charlie No Face and saw him a few times on the road where he walked at night. My brother and a couple of his friends would stop and chat with Charlie every now and then, bring him cigarettes and an occassional beer.

[@JustaMuteCat]

The organ theft one reminded me of a part of the Ghost in the Shell series where a group of medical students were caught stealing organs from an hospital to sell them in the black market. I can’t remember if the organs were due to be disposed of or if they were actively involved in the removal of it from the patient’s body.

[@TooLooze]

Thank you for putting sponsorships at the beginning so the stories are not interrupted!

[@keithg7298]

Charlie no face was a sweetheart from what I was told, and he was burned from a powerline, he worked for the power company. This is what I was always told by a guy I know in Pittsburgh that grew up in his neighborhood. It's crazy all the different stories you hear.

[@jessejoyce1295]

I'm from Pittsburgh and I've heard about him too, like you said he apparently was a very kind person. It's such a sad story

[@lovingmayberry307]

When i was a kid, about 50 years ago, the story going around my school was that a little girl was walking by a cemetary on her way home when something grabbed the back of her sweater and she was so scared she instantly died of fright. The next day when they found her body, her hair had turned completely white. Turns out the thing that grabbed her sweater was just a nail sticking out of a fence post. This story was told and re-told for a number of years and we all believed it 100%.

[@athena8794]

There's a very similar one that was popular in my neck of the woods that involves a "haunted" grave. As a bravery test (whether it was a standing challenge for every kid in town or a one time bet varied) a teen, usually a girl was challenged to go into the local graveyard to the haunted grave, and stick a knife into the dirt to prove she'd been there. She then couldn't get away, and thinking the body had reached up and grabbed her, died of fright. Come daylight, it turns out she'd stabbed through her (skirt, hoodie, jeans, jacket, etc)

[@BangBang-hk4rg]

Amazing how your videos bring back a lot of my childhood memories. Grew up around Pittsburgh, in one of the suburbs, and we all knew not to go near Green Man's Tunnel on Halloween or during a full moon. Keep up the awesome content on all your channels, Simon!

[@TiberiusRings]

Used to work at WDW and this was very common. Oddly a lot of people would dump the ashes in the water of Pirates which would result in the ride shutting down and being drained. Then again, Pirates is supposedly haunted so I guess it tracks.

People don't realize they're being watched in the dark...I got yelled at over the PA once. :p

[@TiberiusRings]

@@ryanroberts1104 Yup! There's also motion sensors and all kinds of things watching you so you don't get hurt. There's also a big button that shuts the ride down if someone does something stupid like this. Oddly enough there aren't many cameras in the retail areas. But on the rides you're watched like a hawk.

[@naomilindberg2328]

Yeah, the sad thing is your loved one's ashes just get swept up or literally vacumed up and disposed of. We were to report it immediately! There is some rule or law about human ashes on the property. I forgot what exactly it was, I just knew to report it.

Ah I know it well! Though you’re still quite far from the bridge. But get off your phone LOL

[@TheAtemiles]

@@raev87 are you familiar with the area? Ive always had a question all the way down colchester is that the actuall bridge? Or do you have to get out and walk where cars arent accessible to see the real thing

[@raev87]

@@TheAtemiles I’ve only been to the bridge a couple times, but you can drive your car all the way there! Colchester from Braddock goes quite a ways (I think you cross over Popes Head) and then eventually intersects with Fairfax Station (twice technically). You’ll keep heading straight and Colchester gets a lot smaller and essentially takes you right to the bridge which is big enough for one car to go through at a time. Despite the “legends” it’s actually kind of a cool area and a little hidden train tunnel!

[@TheAtemiles]

@@raev87 i think you got the roads confused when you come off colchester thats braddock rd. Braddock is the clost road to colchester. Heading to or from centerville area. Pope head is far away by the parkway or masonSo i use to think that was the bridge. But locals told me the actual bunny man bridge is not car accessible. You have to park on colchester then walk. Past those metal gates

[@raev87]

@@TheAtemiles I’m pretty sure it was the right one 🧐 Colchester is a pretty long road. But the last time I went would’ve been around 2010. There are some residential houses nearby so maybe they requested gates be put up? And Colchester definitely crosses Popes Head, I remember there was a church at that corner and there would ALWAYS be a cop parked out there. But that being said, I only went twice, 2008ish and 2010ish but I used to drive around aimlessly in that area when I lived there.

Urban legend: Simon has access to cloning technology and he uses it to run multiple KZbin channels at once. Is this one true?

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

The face of "Simon Whistler" is actually high resolution scans from photographs taken in the early 1970s of Gerard Simon-a 36-year-old undertaker and native of Lincoln, Nebraska. The high resolution scans were then digitally face-swapped over an actor's real face. Legend has it that Gerard Simon would lurk around Calvary Cemetery late at night and whistle ballads to lure curious passersby into the cemetery, where he then allegedly garroted them to death. Although the public and the police had their suspicions, (and due to the growing number of missing persons in Lincoln around that time) there simply wasn't enough evidence for authorities to make an arrest. Simon was employed as an undertaker at Calvary Cemetery who often worked the graveyard shift, and since no bodies were found...no charges could be filed. In a 5 year period, eleven people from the town of Lincoln, were filed as 'missing persons,' and no evidence of their disappearances were ever linked to Gerard Simon. On August 4, 1976, he disappeared without a trace. No one had seen him since...and the legend of Simon _'Whistler'_ was born.

[@ventonthorn3455]

If you go to the Bunnyman Bridge on Halloween you'll encounter a Fairfax County police officer who'll tell you to turn around. At least that happened to me a few years ago.

He's a truly sick and disgusting man.

Hey Simon, please, please, please do a Casual Criminalist video on James Mitchell "Mike" DeBardeleben. The other day you mentioned that the Secret Service in the US is responsible for investigating money counterfeiting crimes on the Casual Criminalist, which made me think of DeBardeleben. He was a prolific counterfeiter, so much so that the Secret Service gave him a nickname: "the mall passer". When they finally caught and arrested him, the Secret Service agents found a lot more than counterfeit money. Together with the FBI he was charged with a whole litany of crimes (he wasn't even prosecuted for most of them). He was sent to prison for life and the agents who investigated him said that he committed just about every felony on the books.

She drops her pupper off to go back home to get something that she forgot in her rush (wallet, leash, dog's favorite blanket). As she arrives home, her phone is ringing. (pre-cell phone age) She answers the phone and it is the vet. He tells her to get out of the house as quickly as possible because what they dislodged from her dog's throat was two human male fingers! 😱 The police arrive and find a man in her closet...half dead from blood loss....missing two fingers! ✌🏼 I've always wondered if that story ever had any kernel of truth in it. 🤔 Simon, could you look into this, please? 😊

One issue: Snuff films are most definitely not an urban legend...nor do they even have any potential to be. As long as video equipment has existed they have the affirmative potential to exist. And that's not even to say that the one you showed is the only one that has been publicly released. In fact many known snuff films exist/are confirmed to exist, including that of a cannibal who satiated a fetish on...a willing participant. It was all filmed, but of course never released to the public.

[@unfortdork]

In the US, there have been issues with crematoriums selling organs and giving the families random ashes to make-up for the weight. Big problem with that, is that the "donations" aren't always as throughly tested for other diseases.

It's true the part about the mess on people's car. Just not the other part.

The Snuff Film segment is a bit misleading. Now if you were to say there are no distributed snuff films other than your example, that's fine.

"10 urban legends that are actually true"? I don't think so. You just debunked the Fairfax bunny man.

[@sophroniel]

When my mother was in high school, there was a boy who was bullied in her year who was also in some of her classes. Like her, he was a redhead, but as his was a very frizzy, curly, bright orange compared to my mum's long waves and bright chestnut-auburn, the colour sometimes called "Titian", she didn't get quite as much bullying as him. Many people were annoyed by this kid, and he was, in addition to said red hair, "dorky looking" according to my mum, with three times as many freckles as my mum, bat-like bug ears that stuck out, and a permanently flushed face. That said , whilst she never bullied him, but she did say she was never exactly mean to him either, which she regretted because he never did anything specific to warrant the level of bullying he received. One summer Monday, my mother's entire year/class was pulled into and assembly in the gym. This was specially called to tell them all that this same boy had been killed over the weekend. "Killed" is probably the wrong word for it; what actually happened is that some kind of altercation had happened between this boy later after school on friday, at a time when few were around. It's not clear exactly what happened next, but somehow these bullies dared this 15 year old boy to climb a power pole to either plant his scissor or his protractor at the top of the post (power lines were mostly wood back then, and many are still in this area, as I still live in the same place). Some say it was a dare, or a bribe, but ultimately it didn't matter what the reason or the object was, because whatever the case, what we do know is that he accodentally touched an ungrounded, live wire and was propelled from this 10 - 12m height, and a few metres away, setting both him & the pole in fire, in addition to him falling on the concrete, face up. I don't know any more details other than the fact that he died, obviously, and that my mother and her brothers both knew him and had gone to the same primary school as well as them before high school, and that this was some time in the mid to late 1970's in New Zealand, but this is not why I am sharing this story; I'm sharing it because the case of "No-face Charlie" reminded me of what happened next in the assembly I mentioned earlier... Having heard the announcement of this young teen's death, and the call for a minute of silence then being called for so as to remember him, one of my mum's school friends sitting next to her, was trying desperately to stop laughing, masking it as crying (which she was doing, but this was later revealed to be tears of mirth, not sadnness). Once they were allowed to speak again, my mum obvious asked what she was laugh at---because this was a moment of calm and respect for a boy they were learning maths with only days before. So, what did she say? "His hair," she wheezed, "All I can think about is his hair sticking up on end and crackling with electricity." And the tragic thing is that, by some cruel coincidence this same girl burned to death in a fire five years later when her Parisian flat burned down in the middle of the night. The cause? Faulty electrics, but even more specifically,it was due to rats nibbling on the connection between her apartment and the electric pole; the wind snapped the wire free of the mainline connection the pole wire had to her house, showering sparks onto the pottery tile roof but, more importantly, the (highly flammable) canvas balcony awning, quickly collapsed down, and the curtains flying through the open door immediately caught, tearing through the house in a matter of minutes. I don't know what my point is, sorry. But maybe it's just that "the past was the worst", "don't bully people because of how they look" and, most importantly, "have a healthy fear of being electrocuted, so be safe about interacting with possible hazardous wires and things like that"!!
