I can’t thank you enough for this channel. My dad had a heart attack last week and was in congestive heart failure and all the time I was with him at the hospital or back at home, I was binge watching your videos to keep my mind from going certain places. When he was feeling much better the other day, Dad and I were watching together and he was thoroughly impressed with every video he watched and he’s become a fan himself. And he loves Hecklefish who I swear is my dad’s spirit animal. Dad went home today, on his birthday, and he said he was looking forward to getting in his comfy chair and watching the rest of your videos. So thank you for keeping me from losing it the last week. Thank you for giving my dad something new and totally awesome to watch. And most definitely, thank you for Hecklefish!!!

In 2002 attempt was made at the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University of Münster. Kaspar Hauser's hat, trousers and a number of curls were tested. The material came partly from Anselm von Feuerbach's private collection. The genetic code was the same in all items tested. They compared the genetic material to Astrid von Medinger, who was a descendant of Charles of Baden and Stephanie de Beauharnais, and it turned out that the DNA matched 95%.

[@CrystalDenton1991]

One of the things you do so well with the channel is pacing. Maybe it's your background in production but the brilliance of using title cards and cut screens every time the audience has a question and then coming back in with the answer is just brilliant. It's like a mature version of the call and response that you often see in children's television. "Who? How? What? Why?" "Let me tell you." It's such a smooth way to engage with your audience beyond the comment section.

As far as the green tint to their skin, I can say that that happened to me when I was a child too. I would only eat yellow vegetables that's it, my mom said that I wouldn't eat anything that wasn't corn or squash ECT. My skin turned yellow because of the pigmentation. They figured this out when they took me to the hospital and thought I was jaundice but I wasn't, it was from the pigmentation of the only foods that I would eat.

The green children fascinated me when I first read about them as a child (obsessed with the paranormal since 1984 thanks Ghostbusters) and I always fancied the fairyland idea. But after listening to your episode about how we've evolved to see colour, I wonder if they really were green, perhaps just very yellow from jaundice? I'm also leaning toward being from another country, in the 12th century most people only knew their own region and had no experience of the languages, culture and costume of far away places. The deeper mystery is how they got so far away from their homeland...maybe *that part* is a time slip. 😉

This story has happened in a lot of countries but because Americans speak English let’s just say it was England but it was Germany were this story was first told. So if a few countries are claiming it happened in their country well then it’s a hoax because no children could survive on one source of food.

[@dr.feelgood.1330]

Exactly the story didn’t begin in England because England had only three languages I think they were brought far away from their homes and left in a field near a town or village and maybe they were sick and were off color. The first people to tell this story were Germans so it had to be children from some place in Europe or euro Asia.

The last story sounds like the Missing 411 phenomenon. You should do a video on that. It’s very intriguing and mysterious. David Paulides is great and all, but sometimes his storytelling gets a bit depressing because he talks about suicide constantly. This is because his son committed suicide a couple years ago, which seemed to me like not much of a coincidence since his father was in the middle of uncovering one of the biggest mysteries in recent history. That is a story within itself if you ask me.

I tracked him down and met him when I was 18, and he mentioned strange things they did at that school around the time of the Montuak Project; I always wondered if there was a link. My dad is "mentally ill" he said because of weird stuff he experienced at "school"...???

[@intothestorm86]

Newly binge watcher too! I just found your channel very recently. I really like all the research and the story telling in your videos. I like how you keep an open mind too. HeckleFish interactions are fun and keep the mood light even with some gruesome subjects sometimes. Great work!

[@jameswinn3281]

Wish I could give more 😕 as this is the best channel on KZbin! Tip for a topic - Stories of people with actual evidence of living past lives 🤗

[@TheWhyFiles]

Thanks again James! Reincarnation story coming soon!

[@fairyencyclopedia]

I've always loved the story of the Green Children. Your debunking makes sense. Pauline Picard now that one is still mysterious too me. Her story honestly reminds me of changeling legends

[@MrSerendipity01]

I think it's very strange that parents could mistake a strange child as being their daughter.

[@dicksdrugsanddebutantes9305]

I guess they were desperate for their daughter and saw what they wanted to see. Its sad the other child passed away so soon though

[@leeannwitt4968]

Make it make sense🤣

[@theclumsyprepper]

@@dicksdrugsanddebutantes9305 I think it's disgusting they got rid of her when they found Pauline was dead. The little one wasn't to blame for it.

[@BarbaryCorsair]

What is stranger is, the others siblings recognise her as their sister. What!!!!

[@protercool8474]

I think 2 year olds are less distinguishable from each other than older children. For a grieving family, it could happen.

[@djbb975]

This is the only channel where I allow ADs to play in full.. So AJ and Hecklefish can make more videos!

[@dustinmcdonald1784]

It’s so amazing to finally hear you say if you could please like and subscribe that really helps. Instead of saying it really helps a small channel, because you finally have been getting the recognition you deserve! So awesome that you’re almost at 500,000 subs I remember you were stuck around the 200,000 for a while. Another great video man

[@TheWhyFiles]

Thanks, Dustin! The channel was stuck at 5,000 for over a year. We're making progress.

[@dustinmcdonald1784]

@@TheWhyFiles was it really? I don’t know how you kept going without growing for so long but that just goes to show persistence pays off because once that right hit video hits and goes viral it changes everything plus I think your shorts have also drawn in an entire different audience. So consistency and the shorts I think you’re a big part of it and obviously the amazing content

I read about the green children when I was a kid, and it always fascinated me. I agree with your theory about where they came from, and that they were most likely Flemish. It makes complete sense. I also considered whether they may have had jaundice or some other liver disorder, as that can make your skin go a strange yellow-ish green color. ( I have had hepatitis A, and was that kind of color myself). The story of Pauline is a sad one. I believe that the parents made an honest mistake in their identification of the child that was found. They wanted for her to be their daughter so much that they overlooked anything that told them otherwise. Love Hecklefish!! He really makes watching fun and worthwhile! Keep up the great work, and I can't wait for the next video.

[@dranzerjetli5126]

Exactly

[@Km0577]

Still appreciating, and loving these videos! You and Hecklefish are still giving my students a ton of inspiration! Storytelling, and thinking with good reason!

[@smeeagain3102]

Did your students ask you what is an ascot?🤣

[@fuqupal]

That's the way to do it. Make learning FUN!

I just love Hecklefish's cheeky comments! So fresh! I laugh out loud every time. 🤣🥰

[@Mortonfam1234]

This is such an amazing channel. I’m currently binge watching all back episodes. Good work. I love how you debunk and then encourage. I love the history. And the what if. Keep up with the hecklefish. Great work.

[@orvillephillips807]

I am SO glad I stumble across your channel. I have seen all your stories and anticipate your new content. Even if I have heard about the topic your covering I truly enjoy and want to hear your spin and thorough perspective. Seen all of the X files and now all the Why Files, Mulder would be proud of you! Keep up the great work and will continue tell more people to check out AJ and Heckle Fish. You are appreciated for sure!!

[@ede7722]

I've heard of this before but it wasn't covered in nearly the detail and depth that you have AJ. All of your videos are so well done that is surprises me that you don't have over a million followers. C'mon people, get it together and subscribe now!

[@g.r.102]

This was a great story series! Love a good mystery. Love your channel 💜💜💜

[@thomasdb597]

I'm so glad I found your channel! I watched nearly 15 of your videos in two days, very great content and excellent way of telling the stories. You'll be famous!! Thanks for this.

[@jefferynordgulen4436]

Can't wait to hear this one. I have heard of the green kids, but not sure if I know the other two, I suspect I know of the boy wandering but the two year old found a month later sounds like a missing 411 case. It would be really great if you did a video on missing 411 personally I think it it is much like the Bermuda triangle but really want to hear what heckle fish has to say!

[@perryshaffer8358]

Here's a preview: "Aliens!"

[@NoBudgetBits-]

Yet another great episode! Three legends retold and analyzed. Entertaining, intriguing and thought-provoking. Kudos!

[@anonymouswv101]

Currently going through a bad divorce, had to move in with my parents basically with nothing but cloths and my phone. Your work has kept me busy and my mind off things. I appreciate everything youve done here and cant wait to see future videos as i watch all of your older content. You're awesome.

[@WillowRaven7]

Very interesting stories - thank you! Just curious: has the Baden family ever given a reason for declining the request for testing to see if Kasper Hauser was an actual relation or not?

[@MikeD_]

Maybe they would be embarrassed by the results, even though none of the current family members would have been involved.

[@TheWhyFiles]

As far as I know, they said they don't exhume out of "respect". My suspicion is that they don't want the truth out there. If the story is true, that means they did some awful things to protect the family. And this isn't a thousand years ago. We are only a few generations away from the people in the story.

[@perryshaffer8358]

Let the guy rest. Digging him up solely to satisfy prurient curiosity seems a bit extreme. Knowing Kaspar's origin won't change anything. Boundaries are important.

[@landscapedetective4064]

Probably because it might raise awkward questions about the legitimacy of other 'noble' families' offspring. Take a look at a certain red-headed British 'Royal,' who bares a marked resemblance to his late mother's red-headed equiry.

[@RepubliKING]

At the end of the day, royal families are about as paranoid as ppl can get when it comes to their 🏧$💰... And look anywhere in time at history and see the atrocities committed by the royals to deny regular ppl there fortune: princess Diana got wacked for cheating on Charles, Cleopatra gave it up to CAESAR to oust her older broski, Charles II, King of Spain from 1665 to 1700, who was determined to be the 'individual with the highest coefficient of inbreeding', or the most inbred monarch slept with his mom to hold it down! etc. 🤮🤢 @the why files keep em coming my friend!

[@robpacyna3511]

After watching this wonderful video, the topic of “black eyed children” came to mind… any chance of a video on them? Thanks again for the great video and I really dig Hecklefish! 🤭

[@tkmccoywv]

I am thrilled that I now have a reasonable answer to the famous "green children" mystery. Most everyone else just goes with the supernatural options (sorry Heckle Fish) and ends with, "No one knows." Thank you, AJ!
