Brit Reacts To THE 30 CREEPIEST MYSTERIES OF THE CENTURY!

[@purpleoryx1774]

Archaeologist here. The answer to your pyramid question is we don't know exactly, but it probably involved hoisting the blocks or rolling them up ramps. We do know the workforce was up to 40,000 people strong and the blocks get smaller as it gets higher. They've experimentally quarried the same stone in experiments and cutting it takes less time than expected, and then they were floated down the river to the build site.

[@Cubs-Fan.10]

Pyramidologist here. You're correct in your assessment. EXCEPT..... it was aliens, History Channel told me so.

[@dlcalbaugh]

@purpleoryx1774 This makes much more sense than the alien's theory.

[@MrJlee93]

Don't leave your kids alone. Especially that young. No matter where you are in the world, leaving your kids alone while you have fun is a bad idea. The parents are definitely crazy

[@kenttaylor9238]

Kabir are you familiar with the Mr Ballen podcast? He has hundreds of strange and mysterious video stories available on YT. Would love to see your reactions to some of these.

[@robertlarosejr.1535]

I’m pretty sure he’s reacted to MrBallen before but it’s been a while. Wish he’d do them more. I love MrBallens “places you can’t go but people who went anyways” series

[@makokoro9073]

Are you familiar with the bed time stories channel? They also have awesome/strange stories that are illustrated.

[@randalmayeux8880]

Hi Kabir, leaving three kids 4 and younger by themselves in a hotel room is asking for trouble! Four year olds aren't exactly known for having great judgement. As for the Malaysian airliner disappearing, from what I've heard about that country's airlines it doesn't seem to be a singular event.

#5 - radio signals from space -- hmmm maybe a rapidly spinning pulsar that blast radiation at regular intrevals that last from a few milliseconds to a few seconds, which I'm sure would cause some kind of radio signal

[@rachelmaxwell5936]

Concerning the pyramids, I think people now only assume the ancient Egyptians didn’t have the technology to build the pyramids. Clearly they had some method. There are ways to move extremely heavy objects without modern machinery. Also, the peoples of the past were a LOT smarter than modern people tend to give them credit for. Studying history and cataloging 17th, 18th and 19th century scientific pamphlets for my job showed me that.

[@user-mg5mv2tn8q]

There is also, quite frankly, a certain racist element to these theories. No one ever claims that aliens built Notre Dame Cathedral, or the Empire State Building. No, it's only brown and black people who supposedly needed extraterrestrial assistance to get anything done.

[@George-ux6zz]

I don't know who would leave their kids alone.

[@revgurley]

I dislike that in so many "documentaries," they underestimate the intelligence of ancient humans. If only the Library of Alexandria wasn't burned, we might have documents that explain a lot of ancient mysteries.

[@kristinewenrich2779]

The long Island serial killer - there is a guy being tried for the long Island murders, right now. They just added a few more murders to his list of possible victims.

[@tomfowler381]

They just found old channels of the river Nile that passed within a short distance of the location of the pyramids. That’s how they delivered the blocks. There is a wealth of information on the gangs that worked and moved the stone, including work absence listings, gang names and the duties of each of those gangs. It’s pretty clear to anyone who wants to seriously look into it that humans built it. Honestly, it’s an insult to suggest anything else.

[@JIMBEARRI]

There's also a town named "Intercourse". Pennsylvania was founded by Quakers. Some of the unusual place names may have been religious references [ i.e. Intercourse can also mean "Fellowship" and "Community Interaction" ]. Remember Inspector Morse ? His parents were Quakers and they named him "Endeavor".

[@brigidsingleton1596]

I think Inspector Endeavour Morse's Mother was a Quaker, but I think - perhaps(?) his Father was a "betting man", so perhaps _not_ also a Quaker? His stepmother didn't seem to like him much and there was quite a bit of tension between them, as I understand his story...? (Also, his niece fell victim to a doctor's "strange drug", which created paranoia in young people... R.I.P. John Thaw, a Manchester-born actor, who played the original, older Morse ...later recreated as a younger policeman, played by Shaun Evans (a Liverpudlian, who _mostly_ managed to disguise his 'natural' accent for "Endeavour" - and portrayed him very well too, imo).

[@user-mg5mv2tn8q]

There are other towns in Pennsylvania with amusing names. You can buy a bumper sticker in Intercourse naming three of them, reading "Intercourse is located halfway between Blue Ball and Paradise."

[@MamaBe1963]

Been there. Even spent the night!

[@auburnkim1989]

Popped in to give you a big thumbs up!

[@retrosonghits]

The McCann's were just stupid! You don't leave your kids alone in a motel room to go eat and drink. What if there was an accident or they got hurt, no way to tell since Mom and Dad chose to leave! You don't leave your kids. Either don't go out or eat in your room or get a trusted babysitter. Beyond negligent on them.

[@gabecollins5585]

In the Malaysian aircraft they did find pieces of a plane presumed to be the Malaysian one.

[@thamertanner5448]

Kabir do you watch Simon Whistler at all? He has multiple channels and he's covered a lot of the topics mentioned in this video. I think you would really enjoy his videos.

Hi Kabir! 👋

[@George-ux6zz]

If you escape N. Korea, the government will kill the next 3 generations of your family. That's according to Yeonmi Park who escaped N. Korea and lives in NYC. Her story is heart breaking. If you want to know what she went through she has a KZbin channel, THE VOICE OF NORTH KOREA. It's really an interesting story and she tells what life is like there.

[@kimzwolinski9919]

I would never leave my kids alone in a hotel room.

[@ClaireRedfieldKennedy-ld2lx]

22:18 No, I wouldn't leave children this young alone at night for the simple fact all sorts of accidents can happen. All they had to do was have one adult stay with them each night.

[@randysake5031]

What if we find "un"-intelligent aliens? I guess that would be just as cool.

[@makokoro9073]

I saw a video in which they talked about the Malaysia air plane. I think they discovered the pilot was the one that decided to crash the plane.

[@thamertanner5448]

I know exactly what video you're talking about but I forget what video it was, do you recall what channel it was on?

[@brigidsingleton1596]

Kabir, Madeleine McCann was _three_ years old in May 2007, she was about a fortnight or so (?) away from her _fourth_ birthday, and her twin siblings were about 18 months old. The twins _slept through all of the fuss_ of their parents and their friends, then (belatedly), the Portuguese Police, investigating the appartment, on discovering Madeleine missing... Madeleine's alleged 'favourite soft toy' ("Cuddle Cat") was found on Maddie's empty bed ...and her mother Kate McCann washed it, removing any possible DNA, or trace of any alleged abductor... Why wash the toy which was the last toy cuddled by a missing child,which would surely have her scent on it, and be their only link to her... Whilst her parents (both doctors) spent every evening having dinner with their friends...(who have become known as "The Tapas Seven/ The Tapas Nine") ...and who have contributed _varying stories_ to cover the actions of Catholic's Kate (a Liverpudlian) & Gerry (a Scot or Northern Irish, I dont recall which, sorry) McCann - parents of Madeleine & the younger twins (a girl and a boy') across the other side of the holiday resort, in *Praia de Luz , in Portugal. (*pronounced Prior de Luge) ... I would suggest, _if_ you're interested in their case, to watch videos by South African (?) a very good author and investigator, Nick Van de Leek, of video channel: True Crime Rocket Science (TCRS) Nick also works on the 'JonBenet Ramsay case' of a six-year old murdered American girl, her father John Ramsay, her (now) late mother Patsy Ramsay and their ('strange') son, Burke, (who was nine years old when his little sister was found dead in the cellar of their house inBoulder, Colarado, at Christmas in - I _think_ - 1996?). Nobody has been charged for poor *JonBenet's death. (*pronounced '_Jon_Ben_nay_') ... 💔😢Rest In Peace 😢💔 Madeleine MacCann. (age 3yrs) & JonBenet Ramsay. (age 6yrs). It's a fascinating, if somewhat chilling, but very strange story.

I feel sorry for all the dead octopus I love the little ink creatures have a plush near my bed.

[@ht9851]

From what I've read online they will be starting a new search soon for flight MH370. Hopefully they can give the families closure.

[@itsahellofaname]

Aliens and pyramids: you have to understand just how incredibly advanced an alien culture would have to be to even accomplish interstellar travel in the first place, and then ask yourself why in the world would such an unbelievably advanced culture come to Earth and build pyramids in the desert? It's such a childish idea.

[@georgemetz7277]

Thank you! I enjoy reason on the internet. I like Neil deGrasse Tyson's comment on how aliens went to all that trouble to get here and then in the last two miles they crash into the planet. Highly advanced space ship has no brakes. That coupled with how insulting it is to the actual builders. "Gee, maybe if they had some sort of way of building up a work surface to move the blocks up an easy gradient. Maybe something like sand...oh wait." Yeah

[@George-ux6zz]

I think our planet has been inhabited several times by us humans. I think we grow in population and technology to the point we destroy ourselves with just a few survivors. Then repopulate and technology becomes strong again, then destroy ourselves again. We keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.

[@cameronnewman9362]

there is no way we are the only intelligent life forms to ever exist out of an ungodly amount of planets that exist

[@SeenGod]

i agree, the odds are like 0.00% that we’re some weird anomaly that only exists right here in the whole universe, but i think anything else is so far away that we’ll never find it anyway

[@user-mg5mv2tn8q]

I remember Carl Sagan voiced an interesting possibility on the original Cosmos TV series back in the early 80s, namely, what if we are the most advanced species in the entire universe? After all, *somebody* has to come first. Why not us?

[@prischm5462]

There is another town in Pennsylvania called "Intercourse" and a few miles there is another town called "Bird In Hand". You can make your own jokes.

[@janetmoreno8909]

the shrieks sound mechanical could be some machinery in someones yard. No it's not Ancient Aliens. I wouldn't leave my 4 yo in their own home unattended much less in a foreign country.

[@ct5625]

The Forest Grove "shriek" is not a mystery at all. It's the sound a faulty industrial air conditioning unit makes when the bearings fail on the rotating fan mechanism. It likely stopped because the unit broke or the people responsible for it got it repaired before it could be traced back to them. There was another case almost identical to this one, where the sound would come and go. Sometimes it would be quiet for hours, and then it would start up for 30 minutes before going quiet again. They discovered it was the automatic sensors adjusting for temp changes and activating the unit.

[@andie361]

The little boy that disappeared from school..the second I saw the stepmother I said “she did it”. Something’s off with her.

[@Jeeperskip]

Kyron Horman was his name. That stepmother moved out of state and had to petition the court to allow a name change. So she is out in the wind now and no one knows where she is either. Karma will have it's way. Be careful of your boyfriends, girlfriends, steps and new spouses. They don't love them the way you do.

[@nolaj114]

Yes - her facial expressions aren't right. She looks at the door before she says she was waiting for him to walk through it. I think a natural thing would be to look at the door as you say it , whereas she looked first - as if she was thinking of what to say before saying it. Microexpressions say a lot and why we feel something is "off" without quite putting a finger on it. Just my thoughts - it seemed odd.

[@kevandre]

Pennsylvania has a lot of strange city names. There's Blue Ball, there's Intercourse...

[@randalmayeux8880]

Blue Ball needs to move to Intercourse!

[@ClaireRedfieldKennedy-ld2lx]

18:00 Again, WatchMojo can't even get basic facts right. Bird flock deaths happen all the time. During the night the birds become panicked and because they can't see in the dark they fatally smash into trees or each other. In some cases there's no direct known cause of the scare which may not be man made but obviously something scared them.

[@ct5625]

The most logical explanation for the disappearance of Lars Mittank is that the doctors who treated him missed a serious brain injury that altered his mental state or the language barrier didn't allow both patient and doctors to communicate these concerns properly. It's incredibly sad, but again this is not a real mystery. This kind of head injury has been well-documented, if a strike was hard enough to damage his eardrum it was hard enough to cause serious concussion which would absolutely explain his altered mental state.

[@MamaBe1963]

We once had about 20 birds fall into our front yard. They were not shot or anything. Shreveport, Louisiana, USA.

The Cecil Hotel is located in Skid Row. It actually echoes a case in New York. The person kidnapped women and stored them in his building’s water tank on the roof. The person was arrested and was charged with kidnapping, false imprisonment, and murder as he accidentally killed a woman.

[@scottbmedic]

Kabir, There's also a town in Pennsylvania called Intercourse.

[@Cashcrop54]

The birds were a mystery but then they said it was climate change. The pyramids. The workers were not slaves. They lived in a city nearby and had good medical care. The builders did not just jump in blind. A man named Imhotep was the pyramids guru. There a smaller pyramids he built like the "step pyramid" and the "Bent Pyramid". Not all were successes but were instructive.

[@michaelmarrone8753]

Don't forget, North Korea almost started World War 3 over a tree in South Korea. So, yeah, I can see them doing that over a movie.

[@ClaireRedfieldKennedy-ld2lx]

29:05 Madaline McCann and flight MH370 are the only cases which belong on this list. MH370 just screams out hijacking, the plane reverses course 20 minutes before landing? So if it was a hijacking gone wrong why the cover up? The theory goes that a military shot down the plane fearing it would be used as weapon like on 9/11. Even the Prime Misters of New Zealand at the time said this was a coverup as there was no real investigation. The official story is that the pilot committed suicide by flying hours to the middle of nowhere and crashing into the ocean. Apparently everyone on the plane was just fine with this! Even a single terrorist can't force 238 people to do their bidding without at least a gun or a bomb. WTF would the pilot doing this? Because he was a married man having an affair--- no all they proved is he was talking romantically to another woman online, they don't even know who she was so it's impossible to conclude they were having a physical affair. If this a motivation for mass murder than we're all doomed! The fact he had a mistress at least online would be a reason for him to want to live! They claim the two smoking guns are the fact his mistress sent him an unknown text message which they jump to the conclusion was that she was breaking up with him when it may have just been, "I love you" and the pilot having the route of the doomed flight programmed into his home PC which could have been planted. The computer data shows him practicing the flight for two months. So which is it? He was planning this for months or it was a spur of the moment thing caused by his mistresses unknown text message?

[@yugioht42]

Most hotels offer a free babysitting service which the parents likely used before going to dinner. Something went wrong.
