This was back in the 30s/40s, they really had no way of identifying bodies then. Those bones could have been there for a century for all they knew, they didn't even have carbon dating

[@MagnificentMaj]

I think theory 2 is what most likely happened. Ameilia was an experienced pilot who knew what to do under pressure. I think she landed on the island and eventually died with Noonan due to a lack of supplies. Then, they were eaten by crabs.

[@neatstuff8200]

Crabs yes but good pilot no. She crashes often. Lands at wrong place often. Makes bad decisions mostly. Like marrying Putnam. She was right. He ended up killing her by pushing her into a flight without paul Mantz and harry manning. Pilot and radio man.

[@ewanoxborrow1024]

@@neatstuff8200 you have to remember this was the 1930s? Planes were much less reliable and equipment much less advanced than it is today. In 2015 an entire commercial airliner vanished from the face of the earth, it’s not unlikely that she had a major malfunction over water and couldn’t contact anybody to help her. You can’t tarnish her legacy because of what most likely was a mechanical failure mid flight.

[@HOUSTONERS420]

[@ofwz]

Nick Hentschel [phone] Prank Call me 🤙

[@TheSaneHatter]

True, but I'm making a more specific point: in science (including criminology, or even ufology and cryptozoology), it's a breach of ethics to destroy or omit either your raw data or the evidence you tested. For example, in this case, the bones on Nikumaroro.

[@starrygeek]

@@TheSaneHatter True. However..when you want to cover something up, ethics go out the window. So..who knows.

[@fwoqma]

hit the nose on the head? what?

[@ErgPlant770]

Theory: Just wanted to mention something that has become apparent to me after watching this episode many times. The shoe that was found and deemed not Amelia’s due to the fact that it was a too big for her I believe was overlooked. It’s very common for legs and feet to swell while travelling, especially by plane. I believe it’s very likely it was her shoe, and because of said swelling she may have worn larger shoes.

[@holyfox94]

And thick socks because of the cold. Besides, I wear 1.5 sizes bigger because I’m a waitress and walk a lot.

[@francespowell6923]

If she was around 5'8 or 5'9 a size 9 in mens wouldn't be over the top huge. Big, sure, but maybe she had big feet? Add on thick socks, a roomier shoe to make up for having to wear them for long stretches, and the slight swelling factor.

[@sooyan00]

Yes, that's what I was thinking! Also, I don't see how size 9s are that implausible. I'm only 5'6 and I wear size 8 shoes.

[@turtlemart9612]

What about Noonan? If they were planning on travelling together then they probably bought equipment and stuff together, so from the same brand. Size 9 for a man is much more likely?

@@froggytimmy8643 well tbf the titanic was gonna be somewhere in the atlantic ocean and wasn't all that close to where it sank AND split in two, but amelia's plane(if it crashed in the ocean) shouldn't have been all that far from the last place they reported, near the island.

[@froggytimmy8643]

@@alibrooks7495 I'm saying that if that were true, the plane would be so light, it literally wouldn't exist anymore. It would have been pulled to pieces in the ocean, the bodies would have rotted, and any remaining tiny pieces of the plane would be sent around the world by the currents.

And then your parents start asking if you're Amelia Earhart. "It's ok if you're Amelia sweetheart, your father and I still love you all the same." "Mom! I'm not Amelia Earhart! How can you even ask that?" "Well I just wanted to be sure. You're sure? Because I'll be honest, we lost you at the mall one time and you could have easily been switched out. We wouldn't have noticed." Of course, the irony is we now live in a world where someone can claim to identify as Amelia Earhart, and it's an "-ist" to ask for evidence.

Fun story, maybe nsfw- Some years ago while driving down a very long road on the way to the beach, my bladder was ready to burst and I couldn't hold it in any longer. We passed by an old abandoned church and it was the only place I could pee. I went behind it and did my business. When I looked up I read a sign 'This stone was placed in the memory of Amelia Earheart' and it had an image of a plane and her birth and death. I looked down at my puddle and stared in horror. It was square in the middle of the site. I ran back to the car and we pulled off. I later learned that that church was a historical site. I got home and searched her up and was mortified. Now every time I read her name, I think about that fateful day where desperate times called for desperate measures.

It's also perfectly within the realm of possibility that she did actually wear size 9's. I'm within her estimated height range and wear size 9 shoes. If you look at height to shoe size averages for women, it's completely plausible that size 9s would have fit her. Even if her feet were smaller, she could have been wearing larger shoes (as others have pointed out) to wear more layers of socks and insulate herself better.

[@greateggspectations7590]

9/11

[@vanessamartinez8137]

9/11 is more of a conspiracy theory rather than it being completely unsolved

[@krisstox5833]

I think it's possible that Earhart and Noonan crashed in the ocean and while the plane was sinking that's when those messages the girl found were heard, like they were stuck inside and couldn't get out. Noonan obviously never made it off the plane either dying on impact or after the crash. However, Earhart was able to figure a way off the plane and swam to that nearby island where she built that fire and where the Sekstant was found. The studies of the bones that were discovered later showed that they could have belonged to a taller than average woman and Earhart WAS TALLER THAN AVERAGE, and that makes it definitely possible that the bit of shoe sole was hers as well. I mean, I'm about 5'8 ish and my feet are about 9 1/2 - 10 inches in size. Regardless, she attempted to survive as long as she could, but without a source for food and probably sustaining many injuries, it makes sense that she wouldn't have lasted more than a week if she could find water. If no water was to be found then that would cut it down to a few days. Especially given the brute force the elements would have had on her. In the end, she died of starvation and her body wad eaten by the coconut crabs, explaining why only 12 of the bones remained. It's not unsolved, people just like the air of mystery that hangs about it. It's also extremely easy to fly over your destination, especially back then with less advanced navigation. There are dozens of cases of pilots going missing due to getting caught in jet streams and losing their navigation. Earhart is no different considering the radio message told us that she was way higher than she was supposed to be. In conclusion, the only unsolved bit is what happened to the rest of the plane, and the absence of Noonan's body. Either way. Thanks for listening to my TED talk lol.

or the plane crashed in the water, close to the island. They got to the island and the plane sunk, but then low tide made the plane visible for a short period of time, making the radio usable until high tide.

I find it interesting that Earhart was also particularly involved with women's issues and supporting women's aviation.

And then at the height of her fame, she vanished. That's fishier than that combed ocean. ALSO, I would like to point out that Amelia Earhart earned all these achievements and awards without military training like most male aviators had, and because she was a woman, she had a smaller, less expensive plane than male aviators had, and she STILL beat male aviators asses.

@@georgecant-stand-yeh5451 Unlikely, because she wasn't the first person to circumnavigate the globe. She was the first WOMAN to. The first person to do it was a man named Ferdinand Magellan. Now I'm not denying she was shot down (though I'm not agreeing with it either), but the reason you gave isn't right...

[@georgecant-stand-yeh5451]

AntiSocial Pleb maybe it was just a random Japanese boat that shot her down but I think the Japanese and especially the Germans would want an Aryan or Japanese person to be the first woman to circumnavigate the world

With a last name pronounced “Airheart” you kind of are just destined to do something with a plane.

Tamara Turner True I misspelled it, which fitted more, but regarding pronunciation, flying planes makes more sense. If it was more (I can’t spell finetic, which is pretty ironic) accurate with how it was pronounced, then I don’t even know what she would have done lol

[@ebany2244]

I think I remember a documentary that I saw at school that made a theory of Amelia Earhart and her copilot being on an island of Japan. They could have been held prisoner there. Experts used a photo of Amelia to compare with a photo taken in Japan with a woman similar looking to Amelia.

It's quite interesting that, after many years, investigators are now looking into the mysterious disappearance of Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan thanks to the discovery of a sunken plane which could be Earhart's; still, authorities have to determine whether or not the plane belonged to Earhart as well as uncover the circumstances surrounding Earhart and Noonan's vanishing.🤔

[@emmab3275]

I saw a TV special on the castaway/crabs theory years ago, and what I remember most about it was that the crabs are apparently ready to eat ANY organic material. Like, they did a test on camera with small animal bones and it only took a couple weeks for them to be GONE, 'cause they'll eat everything and store what they can't eat to try and eat again later. So there being nothing left but her skull and a dozen other larger bones a couple of years after she would have died is actually really probable.

that makes no sense to me lmao--the supernatural ones are all ghosts and demons, a bunch of made-up stories that are really interesting but nevertheless not especially scary. meanwhile the true crime ones are about actual murders, disappearances, and serial killers. so like--the true crime episodes can actually HAPPEN to you, people you know, etc. the supernatural ones can't. so i'd think it would be the true crime ones you wouldn't be able to sleep after, not the supernatural ones.

I'm from the Marshall Islands, and my Grandpa would tell me about Amelia Earhart and her plane. He was in his teens when he encountered Earhart being held by the Japanese. He didn't know her name then, but the one thing that intrigued him about her was her height. She towered over the Japanese and Marshallese. 'She stood with the men like she was their equal. She didn't slouch one bit. She lacked femininity. If not for her chest, I would have assumed she was a man. I didn't know who she was, but I did know that she must have been something to not be an average woman.' He said, later on, he and a couple of his friends were interviewed extensively in the 70s by an American film crew. Sadly, they were never able to find Earhart or Noonan. That photo of Earhart at the pier was taken in Jaluit Atoll, where my Grandpa is originally from. My Grandpa would brag about being one of the only people who laid eyes on Earhart.

[@Dressup_Doll]

The photo was allegedly taken before she went missing, though. I’m not trying to be rude, but it does seem odd.
