I know I just said “2 to 3 times per week” for the first time on this video, but it’s been coming for the last few weeks. Standards are getting higher for stories, and I’m spending more time researching to do a better job telling them. (For reference it takes 20-30 hours for me to create a video, that is then edited by Wes and Tori for another 7-10 hours) Overall I believe the videos are improving, even if they are coming out at a slightly less frequent pace. We love making videos and have no intention of stopping anytime soon so don’t view this “downgrade” as a sign of anything bad on the horizon!!! Thank you all!!!

Man the 2nd story was wild. Talk about sleeping with the enemy. I first heard this story on Beyond Belief Fact or Fiction. Those that sleepwalk are fully capable of eating, talking, driving etc while completely asleep. I myself and my dad were sleepwalkers when younger. My uncle once caught me sleepwalking and about to leave the house. He tried to keep me safe. However I pinned him against the wall and was aware of his presence. He kept tabs on me while I walked around the neighborhood. He's former military and seen things. But said me sleepwalking and overpowering him terrified him. He likened me to a dangerous tiger. I feel for the guy in the second story. The most dangerous enemy is one within.

@@Eli-xf1eni read an article that says your eyes are open, that doesn’t mean you’re awake. when you sleep walk the only parts of the brain that are active are the ones responsible for vision, movement and emotion. the part responsible for memory and rational thinking are not. basically the parts that makes you a sensible human being are asleep, you are just going through the motions. kind of like muscle memory. it’s common for someone who’s sleepwalking to become aggressive when someone tries waking them up or intervening since again, the part of your brain that lets you think rationally is out. a sleepwalker can look just like they’re awake but not be. which is why it’s hard to prove whether or not the person actually was sleepwalking when they committed a murder. they can only look at family history of it, and other factors. they don’t have enough research on it, and it’s very interesting.

As a former foster child myself I'm heart broken. That poor kid was sent to that disgusting man for protection and love, but what that poor kid got was torture. The system is broken and so many kids get abused and murdered because they get placed with sick people who only are in it for the money. Foster kids are not a source of income. Don't use them for money. They are human beings that have already been dealt a fucked up life, and they need love. Protection and someone to actually be there for them. Ive heard is many of these stories where the are kids taken away from their families because they were unsafe, just to get put in another place that is unsafe. There are some amazing foster parents out there and I thank you will all my heart for what you do. And for those that take in these already broken children and break them even more hell is waiting for you. And I pray you all get what you deserve! May that poor boy find peace. 😢

I am convinced that peedos work high up in foster care or else something would of been done years ago, I am now 29. I was 9 then.

On the flip side, my older sister got into foster care one time with her ex husband. They all did their best for the boy. We all did, extended family and all. He rejected it and threw it in our faces however. This is what troubles me the most tho. There are situations such as yours and the boy that got murdered paired in similar parallel with the boy my sister fostered. Putting that together I think is what makes the foster system as a whole so fucked up. You got these self-righteous assholes who use kids as a paycheck and ruin their minds to a point that when they come to a good home like my sister and my family and I that they don't trust us and end up becoming a mentally ill adult because of it. It really hurts me in the heart hearing this but please know there are good people still out there. Least I know we country folk are 😊 may the boy find peace and may you find peace kind sir.

The sad thing is that so few understand sleepwalking! I did it a few times as a mid-teen but not (as far as I know) until I was in my thirties when I had a bout of it and then several years later. What those had in common were at the times they happened, I was under a lot of stress over which I had no control. If one does not live alone, it can be a non-problem but if we live alone, we have little or no way of knowing it happened. I can remember in my fifties waking up one morning with my legs aching like I had been on a long walk. Though there was no evidence I ever left the house, I will never know for certain. My youngest son sleepwalked when he was around ten. We did not realize it until we heard him open the front door! We then installed a chain lock at the top of the door (beyond his reach) so if he tried to leave the house, we would be awakened. As those who have dealt with it know, it can be a bit scary and can be dangerous as well. The sleepwalker must have ingrown cautions to not put self into dangerous situations such as walking into traffic.

I don't know what the whole secrecy was about. I mean, if you want the death penalty, and you're willing to confess as much as it takes to get it, then why not confess to everything? What does he gain out of keeping quiet? It's not like he wanted freedom... and after confessing to multiple murders, it's not like he was trying to save any relationships. I thought it'd be even better for his rep to be the most notorious serial killer or something. Obviously I'm wrong, but if anyone can shed some light as to why, I'd appreciate it. I just don't understand why he'd be dumb to confess to the rest. Why not go out "proud" and rack up the numbers for his own twisted glory, so to speak?

After having read the book about Ed Edwards, that was meticulously researched by a former homicide detective, I have to admit, the case for Ed Edwards, from his family members living on the block of one of the Zodiac's victims, to his former cellmate who was the one that Ed was trying to frame for the Zodiac killings, to previous wives and proven innocent victims who were framed and executed for crimes that Edwards probably committed, Edwards was totally capable of being the Zodiac and planned on taking credit for the crimes once he had a confirmed unshakable date for his own execution. He wanted to go out in a blaze of public fascination. He always wanted the recognition, but not the consequences. He was deprived of both by age and disease. But, the book is a fascinating read.

No you are not the only one. I used to wait for the videos to come out so I would be able to have a chance. I would be notified of a new video that HAD been posted usually within 15 minutes, watch it, go to comments and it would already be found. One day I went to my subscriptions and saw a MrBallen video appear saying 354 people watching. I selected it and it started in the middle of the story. I rewound to what I thought was the beginning but it was a Test Pattern for 2-3 minutes prior to the story. I said to myself this is my chance for GLORY. I quickly forwarded to find the beginning and watched the 21 minute video and still spaced out looking for it. I went to the comments and it had ALREADY been found 20 minutes earlier!! That's being found and posted by the time the story is done. If I didn't stand a chance with all of that going for me, minus the spacing out, which impossible for a MrBallen story by the way, you don't stand a chance either but that's just my opinion.

@@dislikemyvideos7993 When I was around 7~8 I had frequent night terrors (different than nightmares) which typically causes a child to sit up and scream/thrash around in their sleep but I had a unique spin on mine because I also slept walk simultaneously, this caused me to FULL SPRINT up and down the hallways screaming at the top of my lungs in the middle of the night. Needless to say this scared the shit out of my family and they nearly called a priest to exorcize me. It always blew my mind that I never tripped, slipped or ran into anything during these episodes. Later on in my early teenage years this type of sleep walking briefly returned except instead of sprinting I was walking up to my moms room and clawing at the base of the door. My older brother found me, asked what I was doing and I responded "mom is in the floor" which properly freaked him the hell out. I can still remember all of these things happening but while it was happening I was more or less just watching it unfold like a dream, as if my ego wasn't present (I was asleep after all). I've also experienced plain old sleep walking where I have no memory of it and I simply relocated in my sleep, one of my favorite times was falling asleep in the basement where my room was and waking up in the living room which I would have to of gone up 2 sets of stairs, we had just recently moved in too so it was still somewhat unfamiliar terrain. Moral of the story, people can do some INSANE things in their sleep.

Over the course of 1 day & night in the ER I was rotated between 4 different docs... 3 of them CONSTANTLY badgering me about how much I drink. I'm sitting there with tremors, nausea, w/ discomfort in my chest, unable to keep food down for almost a week straight, puking over taking a sip of water or random gag coughing... trying to explain that I USED to drink quite a bit at night while gaming online with friends, but that was more than 2.5 years ago and I 'd stopped. Despite my consistent answers all but one seemed to take me seriously and I saw him early on the day prior... once. I was released next day with no answers after taking in about 4-5 bags of IV fluid and with 3 docs thinking I'm a heavy alcoholic with severe dehydration... despite not being the former. The latter was probably due to my constant throwing up.

Ed Edwards from what I can piece together so far 100% fits the zodiac killer. He got out of jail in 1967, he claimed to be a reformed person, he was reformed in a way but only in the sense that he learned how to not be caught by outsiders. Ed was a an ex-marine, I seen the sketch of the zodiac killer and there is a definite resemblance there, he is a socio/psychopath, which goes big into his grandiose idea and going on TV and becoming a motivational speaker. The other guy they try to say was the zodiac killer could have been someone he knew or a simple copycat killer who looked up to the real deal. It just so happens that his killings disappear from the time frame he was in jail and started back up shortly after he was released.

Unconscious behavior (or whatever the broad term is for being mentally asleep but physically doing things) is fascinating to me. Robert is not the first case of sleep killing I've seen. I've also seen a video of someone sleep eating. If I remember the backstory correctly, the man's wife was frustrated with food being eaten and she accused her husband of eating them, and he refuted it, so she set up a camera and recorded him eating, or at least making a sandwich, while asleep.

When he died or should I say was murdered by Ed his legal name was Danny Boy Edwards, not his birth name Danny Glockner.

Probably because, despite what media likes to say, almost all cops have pretty strict morals and ethics. I agree that doing that would've been a great way to trick him into confessing to more murders but it would've also been shady as hell. Even though he's a confessed murderer at this point, and a giant piece of hot garbage to boot, it still would've been unethical to lie to him. The good guys have to be good all the time, that's why they're the good guys and also why so few people are capable of doing what they do.

Caveat on the “you can drink if you’re under the limit part”: in some states, you can be arrested if your BAC is under the limit if you’re found to be “impaired”. It’s up to the arresting cop to determine if you’re impaired or not - arbitrary and not fair in many cases, but that’s how it goes That’s why it’s just not a good idea to drink and drive at all.
