I recall back 1983 (surprised I remember the year lol) I was a young mum with a newborn in a pram and my toddlers holding onto the prayer as we walked. She was probably two years old then. It was a very busy street and suddenly, without any warning she just darted across the road. Full of traffic including trams - she almost made it to the other when she tripped on the tram line right in front of car. I hadn’t noticed a young man that ‘looked’ very radical for the time, had run out behind her and scooped his down as he ran to grab her by the straps on her little overalls. The car barely missed the pair of them. He then safely brought her across the road and placed her in my arms. I never got to say thank you because I was crying hysterically. That toddler is almost 43 now. I don’t know who that man was but bless him I still remember his bravery.

I really want my story to be heard. I was 14 my friend was 12 we went camping about 40 miles south of Land Between the lakes. My parents had a cabin near tn river. My friend and I loaded up my atv with 4 gallons of water some good a tent and a .410 shotgun. We drove as far away from civilization as we could think to. We had a fire we ate our food. About 8:30 at night we scattered our wood and poured all water on remaining embers. We immediately got in the tent and zipped it up. Immigration things started sounding strange muffled. It was instantly like daylight a light straight down from above. We heard footsteps all around the tent. My friend started crying I grabbed my .410 shotgun and that was it. That's all we remember. We both woke up at the same time around noon the next day. We got the heck out of this woods and never went back. I swear on my kids this is a true story.

Your not alone.. My grandpa was killed by my uncle.. I was only 3, and I vividly remember my last time seeing Jerry grandpa, it was Easter.. the incident happened about a month later. My brother and I were playing in the basement and my mom came down there and told us to pick out something to give to Jerry grandpa. I totally didn't understand at the time. On that Easter I had gotten a plush bunny with a glow in the dark carrot on its chest. Which I took into a closet so I could see the glowing carrot one last time.. my brother gave him his favorite matchbox car. On the day of his funeral thousands of people showed up. I can remember making my aunts and uncles laugh. I'm glad I was able to make them laugh when everyone was hurting so much.

Two summers ago I gleefully set out from the Rocky Mtns to visit a dear friend in Texas. The long drive went by quicker than I imagined and I enjoyed every small town and city I cruised past. I had just waded out into the Gulf of Mexico and observed a six foot five, heavy set man submerge in the water and not surface. I was in chest high water and am five foot four.Nervously looking around for his companion, there was not one and he was not surfacing. It didn't take long to stumble on him and I immediately started trying to get his head above water. He would fall down face first on all fours and go under. He was non responsive and totally dead weight. I could not understand why he kept going under on all fours and I was exhausted from lifting. I was trying to float him into shallow water but could not. Miraculously some strong teenagers realized I was drowning and when they found him, they saved us both. I later learned he was severely autistic and had a seizure. His caretaker had been distracted. I had to be treated for aspiration pneumonia after a few days of coughing up all the sand from the struggle on the bottom of the ocean floor. We are friends who stay in touch.

When I was 13 years old, I was sent to Beloit, Kansas to a girls home I took swimming lessons while I was there and I had to save the instructor who probably weigh 300 pounds. I passed the test and they told us that within six months we could have to save someone. I spent one year and eight days in Beloit .that summer I saved a kids life at Shawnee Lake,in Topeka, Kansas

That's not how it happened to me. I was tubing on the trinity. I fell off my tube going around a bend with a tree in between my legs. My friends were already too far away. The water was rushing so fast that there was no way I could get out. I remember looking up at the top of the water from underneath seeing the water rush by and the sky behind it. It was so peaceful and I stopped struggling. All I know was, I said... ok, this is it and then BAM. I am instantly on the shore of the river coughing and spewing up water. No explanation other than God saved me for some reason. Wasn't my time. There is no way that I got out of that on my own. I was gone. Seeing my friends on the river bout 1/4 mile down screaming if I'm ok. Bout 20 years ago.

There are multiple times where I should be dead and don't know why I'm alive. I've done some crazy stuff. I can't explain it and do not know why, but for some reason...

Dave thankyou for highlighting Carson Hughes and his story. He's one of our locals. According to all who knew him, he was all you've said and more. Our community was ROCKED by this in a way we can't even begin to describe. My youngest is 18, so my heart broke for them. He knew Jesus and had a precious heart. His photos ARE world class as you said!!!. So from a personal perspective there were a few things the news didn't mention, but i thought you'd like to know. 1. The local LEO's shared here among themselves, (this was Before he was found) they were confused as to what happened to him because it looked like he emptied his pockets right on shore as if he had to quickly get into the water, but didn't want to get his personal belongings in his pockets ruined and then went into the water. (personal items dumped by kayak on shore) But why? The Kayak was there, on shore, there was nothing in the water that indicated he needed to grab it. So why did he quickly get into the water? It was VERY COLD that day. The news we received here was it was cold water drowning. So again, why go into the cold water quickly? Did something of his float away? They still don't know what got him into that water. Second. Madison IN, also near there, was hit on that SAME day with several tornado's. Down the road on a map from Madison is Carrolton KY, SAME DAY was hit with golf ball size hail. If you look at a map, you'll see these are what we would consider all of our "local towns, cities" that are within 40 minutes or more in either direction around us. So to say the weather was wacky that day is an understatement. All around us was hit. My husband and i both wondered, what kind of weather did Versailles have that day? Everyone was so focused on tornados, hail and then hearing he was missing, i think it was missed. I'm not trying to reach here, its just what it is. Our local areas all experienced crazy weather on March 15th, same time Carson was at Versailles State Park and went missing. Anyways as a long time watcher, as soon as we heard Carson was missing, where he was when he went missing, I wondered about the 411. He seemed to hit some of those profile points :(. Thankyou again for highlighting him, this was done so well and again has given me an even greater respect for you because for us this has played out in real time. So it felt a little closer to home.

[@nancysmith2295]

One of my biggest fears as a parent when my sons were children was that they might die from nefarious circumstances. This was during the 1980's-1990's. Parents could get a lot of advice. One was to make up an ID file card with complete description, including a full set of fingerprints. Fortunately, I never had to use it. They are 41 & 43 years old now. Children, no matter how young or old, are precious to parents. I think part of 'Missing 411' is learning to be aware. Hopefully, learning prevention where possible. I love a good mystery, but many of these cases are baffling.

His last post on Instagram was on the 13th March this year 2024; two days before he went missing 😥 After that date, his family have been posting his work on his page; in memory of him and his amazing talent as a wildlife photographer. The proceeds of photographic prints purchased of his work, goes to environmental conservation groups and causes. I am now following his account as from today, 25th June 2024 since just watching your post of him just now. I am happy to say, as of today, he now has 38,000 followers and I know his family are so so proud of him. I can also say, that he truly was world class. His film footage and photography was phenomenal; he didn't deserve his life to be cut short so soon❤

Hey Dave, do you think you can do a video on Timothy Kravchenko? super weird story. 19 year old athletic kid crashed his car (minor accident) into a ditch, he got out, went into the woods, was missing for 7 days or so and was found dead after a search. whats weird is he left his phone and wallet in the car and why would he go into the woods when he was on the road and could have just walked on the road and waited for a car to come by or walk to the nearest home/business

[@teddibear1850]

There's a lot of background noise around water. A busy beach can be very distracting. People can drown with no one noticing. Once you're under, no one hears anything. The waves make a lot of noise too. Just my observation. Side note - I almost drowned when I was 16 at Gooseberry Falls State Park in MN when I was only 16 in 1980. I fell in at the falls with heavy work boots on plus full clothing. I was in the YCC (Youth Conservation Corp) at the time. The Rocks were slippery and I slipped and fell in. I went under twice. I knew if I went under a 3rd time that would be it. A friend saved me by coming up behind me and was able to get me to a rock and hold me there for a bit till I regained composure. Because she came up from behind, I didn't grab on to her. She was a hero and I wish I could properly thank her but lost contact after that summer. Anyway, I think drowning can sometimes be noisy and others may notice, other times it can be quite silent. Even huge waves can block site of a comparable tiny head bobbing and trying to stay above the waves. Love all your work David. Thank you for all your stories.

[@stanmoser7106]

When I was 14 we went to a pond to swim when we got there a young guy had just drowned, watched his father jump in and tried to find him.years later I saved two young guys at at different times swimming at an old stone quary. Glad I was a strong swimmer.

[@kathymc234]

I've always heard stone quarries are dangerous.

[@truthseeker2321]

​@kathymcmc It's because they are deep, right off the banks. You step off, and you are already in water over your head. There's no walking out like in a river or lake.

[@lynnfoutch2392]

It’s also best to go to the drowning victim from behind and grab under both arms and have them float as you are pulling them to shore. If they see you..then desperation overrides and they attempt to bring you down because they’re attempting to stay afloat through you! I took life saving and learned this valuable knowledge…we had to perform this exercise as well as treading water with a 10 pound brick for an extended period of time!

We were taught to go out but stay out of range and let them tire themselves out and when they were exhausted go get them from behind. Glad I don’t lifeguard anymore.

Dave you are the bomb. I don't care what anyone says, to speak the truth You are a man's man. I Thank you for your honesty.

Glad you like the Bigfoot cards David! When I sent them I was imagining you & some of the villagers playing poker at night on the Bigfoot Alaska cruise. Enjoy & take pics to share with us that can't attend. 🙏

[@canammissingproject]

Thanks again!

Can you post website or links to make cards? Thank you

I followed Carson. That broke my heart. I will keep them in my prayers. Such a talented kid. God watch over his family.

Good morning Mr.P Angie ,& Huckie. All my 💜. Luhvs you villagers.

Yes, a lot of college boys end up in water. Several Illinois students have done so. It's like something is talking them into the water. I feel for his family.

Riley Strain in Cumberland River, Nashville. Wallet found on shore. No pants. His BAC was elevated. Family got private autopsy. No answers.

[@user-df8zq5nx8l]

Thank you for another great video. Im just wishing that people would STOP going into the woods alone. Especially our national parks. Im sure the ones w h o have gone missing did not think it would happen to them.

[@cindywilkerson4423]

Good Morning from Kentucky!

[@octane_rl4659]

I just watched the 411 movies over the weekend, superb! Im a good swimmer, I once swam across Keen river, on the way back the current got me and I gave it everything I got, I yelled to my family because I was exhausted and almost didnt make it, I panicked and thrashed, closest to death Ive ever experienced, your right!

[@pistolpete92366]

RIP Carson and thank you Dave for treating not only his case but every case with such dignity and respect. God Bless you!

[@DutchessSparkleWolf]

A Sobering Coincidence is such an interesting, thought-provoking read. Highly recommend! There are too many “coincidences” not to ask more questions. It was a great video; the end hit hard. His photos are gorgeous; follow him if you haven't. He was very talented, and his family should be very proud. Sending love and prayers to them. Thanks, Dave; you are always so kind and respectful to the victims and their families. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that. It’s so refreshing to hear about all the aspects, even the hard ones. Thanks for all you do!

[@canammissingproject]

Thanks for the kind words about our book.

I live about 50 miles north of Osgood. Dave, when I heard this story last week on the local news, I immediately thought of you and your work. Thanks for covering this one.

[@rebeccalaw2807]

I live about 25 miles away and thought the same thing😢

[@augiefrank732]

My 3 sisters & her husband went into a river in Colorado to walk across to the other side, husband was the only one who could swim, as we walked the bottom dropped out, we had all been holding hands, my oldest sister and i were separated from the husband and youngest sister, my sister and i panicked, my sister was stronger and grabbed me and held me down trying to stay afloat, i was under water thinking i never should have done this, now im going to die in a river our parents had always told us to stay out of, i could see the sky above and couldn't hold my breath any longer when suddenly we were pushed to a small sandbar/island & came up sputtering and her husband and youngest sister as well. Dont know how at least 1 of us didnt die that day. I know God/Christ saved us. Never ever did anything stupid like that again

[@teddibear1850]

Wow. What a story. Rivers scare the crap out of me. I don't like to boat them either. Motor goes and you're screwed.

[@karenmorrell8099]

Dave,As I watched you tell this young man’s story,the emotion,compassion,heart felt sympathy you revealed🥰It made me want to be able to reach through my phone and just hug you😞😞.You are one of the most genuine human beings on this planet.You do incredible research and speak the truth in these unusual cases.Whether it be a missing persons case,big foot,drowning etc.I believe highly that these are connected in some way,nothing is this coincidental….NOTHING!!!! People sometimes refuse to see what’s in front of their eyes.I also wanted to tell you that my family has watched you forever👍👍Hug your beautiful wife,pet your wonderful pup,and NEVER stop doing what you do!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!

Hi Dave, I'm a villager from Phoenix. Thank you for sharing. Rest in Peace Carson. Sending condolences to his loved ones. 🙏❤️‍🩹

We were taught in our lifeguard class to never get in reach of a drowning person, extend a flotation device or a crook, but never get in the water unless they're unconscious and even then use a device to assist them.

[@jennyt6159]

These drowning cases are just becoming so much more frequent and bizarre. To just blow it off as drunk college kids is almost impossible at this point and I am a pretty skeptical person. I am holding my breath and praying for Caleb Harris (as his story is getting little coverage.) I pray it doesn't end the same. As always all the families of the missing are in my prayers for as a mother of two I cannot even begin to imagine the pain.

Yes, he was very good.

[@catsjourney5405]

I am always moved by your videos. In watching your video I feel your pain in the loss of Ben. My condolences.. I am sure you were left with so many questions. My parents passed away dad in 2019 mom in 2021 dad passed in the night and mom lots of pain with multiple myeloma cancer.. I retired to help them in their transition into a realm of no pain, no tears, total peace.. Before my parents passed I began to watch NDE (near death experiences)videos to somewhat prepare myself for what they might experience. A majority of the videos have people explain what they saw on the other side... What they encountered- It is so beautiful and so peaceful that most don't want to come back, yet are resuscitated and do come back against their wanting to remain on the other side. From drownings, to suicide, to heart attacks and beyond..They all experience a peace that passes all understanding..and returning to a body with a world of hurt is not what they want. Our bodies (suits)are fallible, our spirit belongs home where we came from. KJV 1 Corinthians chapter ten verse 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. (God's love, forgiveness and grace covers everyone) Sorry I veered off course. I just felt I needed to share. God Bless you David

[@scottt2815]

Tragic story. I pray for the Hughes family. I believe if you are alone in wilderness with activities even near water maybe wearing a Mustang inflatable vest/belt or jacket would be a good added piece of gear to wear.

[@user-oe2df7jw2g]

I live in osgood , Carson's passing is so heartbreaking just driving through town seeing the blue and red ribbons , puts a lump in my throat every time. 😢 but I must say that the outpouring of love and support of this community is absolutely beautiful.

I had a near drowning at 16 yrs old..saw my life pass before me, in a movie reel..i was panicked at first, but an overwhelming peace came over me..i popped out of the water, climbed up the bank...totally out of breath....my thought was, i was 1 of 10 kids my parents had, they will miss me but hey, theres 9 others..thats when i popped out

[@JacobSanders-zc7sq]

I'm so glad Dave covered this case. This was a young man from my home state. I had been watching the case on the local news, and something didn't sit right with me. No single in particular detail jumped out at me - it just seemed odd.

[@Sasquatchflow]

God Bless his family and friends and God Bless you David…. This story makes absolutely no sense at all! It’s so frustrating and frustrating doesn’t even express it… 🙏🏻🇨🇦

We do everything right and bad things just happen sometimes. A very true quote by Dave Pilates. Dave as you know we live in a fallen world and one day when Jesus returns everything will be set right. There will be no sickness no death and no sorrow. Thank you, David.

[@Jeremiahgilman423]

Why hasn’t he set it right rn then.

[@monicasmithtofantheflames3733]

If he sets it right, right now, many souls that haven't believed and came to Christ will be destroyed. He is giving His people time to repent and be saved. He will destroy all evil upon His return. We have free will, God is outside of time, He is mercifully waiting on His children@@Jeremiahgilman423

[@audreymay946]

I have been hiking every week at Versailles park since I got divorced several years ago. I know what Carson felt when he was there. I have been watching your work for years Dave, and never imagined that i would see a case in my own backyard. I am hoping the family will release some photography prints for purchase, they truly are beautiful.

[@kogrady31]

Such a tragic, senseless loss in both cases. Two young men just beginning their lives. May they rest in peace.

[@MsRoc88]

Horrific and heartbreaking. Henry McCabe is one of these similar cases that’s always haunted me.

[@ryanmac3134]

I’ve been following this phenomenon since the first book was published, and I’m no closer to an explanation all these years later. Just more questions. Is it a single entity? Is it different phenomena with similar MOs? I used to find it fascinating and when even go so far as to go hiking and camping, almost hoping something would happen to me just so I could understand what was going on, and I’d be the one to live to tell about it. Stupid right? But now, as a father of two little boys, who fit into the demographics of a lot of the kids who goes missing and it makes me terrified. It’s made me so paranoid, and so vigilant. I wish we could figure out what this thing is and put an end to it.

[@stonesauer5781]

Dave, thanks for covering & shedding light on Carson's case. I live a hop, skip & a jump from the location & as soon as I heard the details on the news, I knew something was amiss. The local news around here also reported that he was found in less than 6 ft of water on a 70° day. 🤯 Being the father of a 22 yr old, I can't even imagine the grief his parents are struggling w/ and my heart & prayers go out to this young man and his family. Carson's IG count is at 35.9K. ...God speed Carson

[@user-bj3hm7bb2t]

Hi Dave. This episode very interesting and sad. I'm a hobby wildlife photographer too and very cautious when out in the woods. Young man with so much potential, and great photos. Lost way too soon. Condolences to the family.

[@Soul2SoulRadio]

This happened not far from me. I know people in that community. I watched the news and could see the profile points slowly adding up. It made me sick to my stomach as I knew exactly how this would end. I did hear a local report that he was a good swimmer, but nothing more that would add to what you have shared. This is heartbreaking and maddening at the same time. Thanks for your coverage and for all you are doing. I am praying for you.

[@vancityslicker2844]

Dave, I saved 2 kids from drowning when I was a kid cause parents weren't paying attention. But today isn't about our stories its about Carson. I can see how distraught you are over this young man. So today is about you and Carson and how grateful I am to follow such a solid human being like you and how sad I am to know a top notch young man has left us. God bless you both Kevin, I saved you when you were 3 years old. I can still picture you drowning like you were trying to climb a latter while sinking. When I saw you 30 years later with a family of 3 kids and were such a good man.... I finally felt like my life served a purpose.

Does anyone else recognize that the journey with Dave is the equivalent of taking a graduate level course in missing persons and the strange phenomena surrounding the missing person. The course materials is the text books he has written and the lectures are the videos in which he discusses the text books or other related cases. Well professor Paulides, I love taking your classes!

Hey Dave I’m a former LEO myself. I’ve been looking into your concerns about elivated GHB levels, and some of these victims when the bodies are recovered. On a sidenote, I’m actually prescribed GHB for narcolepsy so I’m very familiar with actual drug and having been law-enforcement. I was familiar with it as well. The prescription medication goes by the name of Xyrem. Anyhow, i’ve been reading some documentation stating that the human body actually tends to increase levels of its own GHB naturally as putrefaction and cellular breakdown begins. Just some food for thought you might want to look into that as well if you haven’t already?

[@canammissingproject]

We've had extensive conversations with physicians and coroners about this.

[@GalCharlotteOG]

I, too, have narcolepsy and have been on Xyrem…
