CLASSIC BALLEN. I’ve watched every single one of your videos but this one reminded me of the early days. Dark, vicious, pulls you in multiple directions. The older stories, especially with grainy black and white photos or black and white artistic depictions make it so much more creepy and bewildering because there weren’t security cameras or cell phones ANYWHERE. It was so much harder to get caught back then and I believe that is what makes that time frame more frightening and unfathomable. I know it’s gotta be harder to find/create content after HUNDREDS of stories told, but this one is an all time great.
@Buesifluesterer6 ай бұрын
Yes, the strange, dark and mysterious more and more changed into horrible murder stories. Of course, the material that is strange n especially mysterious is far less and so that material was quickly used, especially 3y ago when it was “we upload 3,4 sometimes even 5x/week”. And horrible murders are often very depressing compared to things that haven’t been solved to this day, because they seem out of this world.

They were found similar to the poor kids in this story, beaten and slashed into a bloody mess with no explanation as to who or what had done it. Thorough investigations revealed it wasn't Finish troops or peoples. The only explanation was from eye witness accounts of shadowy figures in the night with glowing eyes.

I have heard this case recently in many other channels... but Mr. B gave new or more details into it. I love how he tells a story. Comes across as he knows what he talking about, not reading off something & passion. And helps that he a bit sexy, read me more stories with your lumberjack shirt. 😂😂😂

How could they have thought that Nils could beat himself so bloody he couldn't even speak and was mistaken for dead at first? I'm pretty sure that's not possible to do to yourself!

It’s a silly joke about a bike, how fragile are you?
Fun little fact, I live in Finland.. and I also live next to lake Bodom 😁 it's a nice place to go during the summer.

Finland mentioned less than 10 seconds. I live in Finland so I'm more than excited to watch what it's about. I feel like I need to make some commentary here while watching or at least at the end of the video. I'll comment below this comment when I'm done. 🤭

1:16 Oooh I already know what's this about, it's one of the mysteries people still talk about. I'm so happy Mr. Ballen made a video of this even when I haven't even seen it yet haha. Okay I'll watch it now. 😄
@deaya93775 ай бұрын
Now I've watched it completely. Thank you so much Mr. Ballen, that story was very accurate and I'm happy you even mentioned our white nights! We have a lot of interesting strange, dark and mysterious cases in our history so I hope we'll get to hear more stories from Finland in the furure. ☺️❤

When he said there were a lot of people calling in because so many Finnish guys looked like the police sketch, I couldn't help but think... they probably don't have a very diverse gene pool over there, do they
