00:00:08,245 --> 00:00:13,485
Speaker 1: School of Humans. Hello everyone, Welcome to another episode of

2
00:00:13,565 --> 00:00:17,605
Speaker 1: Cadaver Gals, the super happy and uplifting podcast where we

3
00:00:17,645 --> 00:00:20,125
Speaker 1: talk about the ways that people have died throughout history

4
00:00:20,365 --> 00:00:23,565
Speaker 1: to cope with our own mortality. I'm your host, Taylor,

5
00:00:23,605 --> 00:00:30,685
Speaker 1: along with Gabby and Nika. Make your voices known, Ladies. Yeehaha,

00:00:33,245 --> 00:00:37,845
Speaker 1: we're alive somehow, here we are. That's good, that's great. Okay,

7
00:00:37,925 --> 00:00:40,445
Speaker 1: So today we're going to hear about how torpedoes led

8
00:00:40,485 --> 00:00:42,925
Speaker 1: to human shark bait and how you could really be

9
00:00:42,965 --> 00:00:48,005
Speaker 1: afraid of fairies. I said fairies, that's right. Trigger warnings

10
00:00:48,005 --> 00:00:51,965
Speaker 1: for this episode include, but are not limited to, explosions,

11
00:00:52,005 --> 00:01:00,245
Speaker 1: shark attacks, dehydration, smoke inhalation, suicide and murder. Wow everything episode,

12
00:01:00,525 --> 00:01:04,045
Speaker 1: you have to add fairies to that, and fairies if

13
00:01:04,085 --> 00:01:08,445
Speaker 1: those are triggers for you, like the creature. Yes, the creature,

14
00:01:08,485 --> 00:01:13,445
Speaker 1: fairies que upbeat cadaver theme music to trick people to stay. Yeah,

15
00:01:27,645 --> 00:01:31,965
Speaker 1: all right. Well, as we approached the ocean swimming season,

16
00:01:32,085 --> 00:01:35,605
Speaker 1: I think, as it's officially called um, it's important to

17
00:01:35,645 --> 00:01:38,485
Speaker 1: know all of the risk factors. And that's so Gabby,

18
00:01:38,805 --> 00:01:44,405
Speaker 1: would you like to tell us your beautifully uplifting tail. Yeah,

19
00:01:44,485 --> 00:01:45,885
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is going to be like

20
00:01:45,925 --> 00:01:48,525
Speaker 1: a risk if you were swimming, but this is a

21
00:01:48,645 --> 00:01:54,085
Speaker 1: risk if you are delivering atomic bombs to islands near

22
00:01:54,205 --> 00:01:57,485
Speaker 1: Japan and you're on a big ship in the name

23
00:01:58,365 --> 00:02:01,485
Speaker 1: my summer plans. Yeah, like this is your war risk. Yeah,

24
00:02:01,525 --> 00:02:03,885
Speaker 1: this is at sea war risk. But also if this

25
00:02:04,005 --> 00:02:06,685
Speaker 1: is your summer plan, I think this story is the

26
00:02:06,765 --> 00:02:11,445
Speaker 1: story for you. But so basically what had happened is

27
00:02:11,525 --> 00:02:14,645
Speaker 1: I am I mean, I feel really stupid because we

28
00:02:14,685 --> 00:02:18,845
Speaker 1: all work at like a television production company, but there's

29
00:02:18,885 --> 00:02:21,245
Speaker 1: so many movies that I haven't actually seen. So I

30
00:02:21,325 --> 00:02:25,685
Speaker 1: finally watched Jaws for the first time like two weeks ago.

31
00:02:26,085 --> 00:02:29,045
Speaker 1: Thank you look at me. What was your favorite part?

32
00:02:29,885 --> 00:02:33,165
Speaker 1: Was it the score? I mean, I definitely liked when

33
00:02:33,205 --> 00:02:35,165
Speaker 1: they had to cut up the one shark. That was

34
00:02:35,245 --> 00:02:38,725
Speaker 1: kind of fun. Or actually I did scream where there's

35
00:02:38,725 --> 00:02:40,245
Speaker 1: a part where they go out to a boat to

36
00:02:40,285 --> 00:02:42,045
Speaker 1: see to like check it out, and then there's like

37
00:02:42,045 --> 00:02:45,805
Speaker 1: a dead body floating by it, and I did scream.

38
00:02:45,805 --> 00:02:48,445
Speaker 1: It was very I didn't expect that to happen. But

39
00:02:48,605 --> 00:02:51,045
Speaker 1: there is a really good they had, like a really

40
00:02:51,885 --> 00:02:55,005
Speaker 1: good speech kind of in likeded end of the second

41
00:02:55,045 --> 00:02:57,885
Speaker 1: act of the movie, where there's this dude who was

42
00:02:57,925 --> 00:03:02,085
Speaker 1: a boating guy and he's just like super stereotypical, like yes,

43
00:03:02,125 --> 00:03:04,125
Speaker 1: I go out in the seas and fight the sharks

44
00:03:04,205 --> 00:03:07,085
Speaker 1: or whatever. But it is revealed that he was on

45
00:03:07,125 --> 00:03:10,605
Speaker 1: board the USS Indianapolis. And the reason I bring it

46
00:03:10,685 --> 00:03:14,005
Speaker 1: up is because apparently that actually all happened like the

47
00:03:14,005 --> 00:03:16,805
Speaker 1: way he described. Basically, he's like, yeah, we were hit

48
00:03:17,005 --> 00:03:20,285
Speaker 1: by Japanese torpedoes and then the ship sank and then

49
00:03:20,365 --> 00:03:22,645
Speaker 1: a lot of us were eaten by sharks. And it's like, oh,

50
00:03:22,685 --> 00:03:28,565
Speaker 1: that actually happened in real life. So this is the

51
00:03:28,645 --> 00:03:32,685
Speaker 1: story of that. So let's go back in time to

52
00:03:33,645 --> 00:03:38,845
Speaker 1: nineteen forty five. You know, World War two is a happening.

53
00:03:39,045 --> 00:03:42,885
Speaker 1: You know, the Europeans, the Germans AIDS surrendered in May,

54
00:03:43,445 --> 00:03:45,845
Speaker 1: but then we still had to deal with the Japanese

55
00:03:45,965 --> 00:03:49,205
Speaker 1: and the sort of the Pacific Oceanic part of the

56
00:03:49,245 --> 00:03:54,685
Speaker 1: war with who wartime isn't it fun? Exciting style? Everyone

57
00:03:54,765 --> 00:03:59,645
Speaker 1: knows war is better when there's water. Yeah, water wars baby.

58
00:04:03,045 --> 00:04:05,805
Speaker 1: But so in July sixteenth, nineteen forty five, that if

59
00:04:05,805 --> 00:04:09,005
Speaker 1: San Francisco, Doc, there's a bunch of Navy and Marine

60
00:04:09,045 --> 00:04:12,965
Speaker 1: people who were on board the USS Indianapolis. And there's

61
00:04:13,005 --> 00:04:15,885
Speaker 1: this one marine, Ed Harold, and he was stationed to

62
00:04:15,965 --> 00:04:19,805
Speaker 1: just be like a guard on board the boat. And

63
00:04:19,885 --> 00:04:22,925
Speaker 1: so they're loading up some stuff in San Francisco before

64
00:04:22,925 --> 00:04:26,685
Speaker 1: they set sail across the ocean, and suddenly he sees

65
00:04:26,805 --> 00:04:30,525
Speaker 1: this huge crate drive up on this truck and he's like,

66
00:04:30,565 --> 00:04:32,845
Speaker 1: what the hell. He didn't say that. Probably he seems

67
00:04:32,885 --> 00:04:34,845
Speaker 1: like a good boy, but he was like, what the

68
00:04:34,885 --> 00:04:39,245
Speaker 1: heck is that crate? Jeepers, creepers, what is on that?

69
00:04:39,765 --> 00:04:41,365
Speaker 1: That's what they said, then, right, I mean, he wrote

70
00:04:41,365 --> 00:04:44,005
Speaker 1: a whole book about it, so you can I'm sorry, Ed,

71
00:04:44,165 --> 00:04:47,365
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. But he saw the crate he saw getting

72
00:04:47,405 --> 00:04:50,685
Speaker 1: loaded onto the boat, and he didn't know what it was,

73
00:04:50,765 --> 00:04:52,525
Speaker 1: and he asked around, like nobody knew what it was.

74
00:04:52,565 --> 00:04:54,325
Speaker 1: And then there's all these other people who got on

75
00:04:54,325 --> 00:04:59,405
Speaker 1: board who they were dressed like Air Force people, but

76
00:04:59,485 --> 00:05:01,725
Speaker 1: he later learned they were scientists and they were also

77
00:05:01,805 --> 00:05:05,205
Speaker 1: carrying this other big box. And apparently that box was

78
00:05:05,245 --> 00:05:08,605
Speaker 1: fi old with half of all the uranium that America

79
00:05:08,685 --> 00:05:12,845
Speaker 1: owned at the time, because in that crate was Little Boy,

80
00:05:13,205 --> 00:05:16,445
Speaker 1: which is the name of the atomic bomb that was dropped.

81
00:05:16,565 --> 00:05:19,645
Speaker 1: I'm here a show what a dreadful name? Why would

82
00:05:19,685 --> 00:05:22,205
Speaker 1: you name a bomb little boy? And then the one

83
00:05:22,205 --> 00:05:28,005
Speaker 1: that was dropped in Nagasaki was fat man? So right, yeah, ha,

84
00:05:28,325 --> 00:05:30,965
Speaker 1: aren't those really hayden on? Men and boys today don't

85
00:05:31,005 --> 00:05:34,205
Speaker 1: agree with fat shaming. Here, us government, get it together.

86
00:05:34,685 --> 00:05:36,765
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not fat shaming to say this is

87
00:05:36,805 --> 00:05:40,205
Speaker 1: the biggest bomb explosion that ever happened. That's a fat bomb.

88
00:05:40,365 --> 00:05:42,605
Speaker 1: That was a fat ass bomb. That is something you

89
00:05:42,645 --> 00:05:47,045
Speaker 1: can say about the bombs. Anyway, terrible hundreds of thousands

90
00:05:47,085 --> 00:05:50,685
Speaker 1: of people died. Ha ha ha ha hah. Okay. Anyway,

91
00:05:51,125 --> 00:05:53,005
Speaker 1: so they get there on the boat, they still don't

92
00:05:53,005 --> 00:05:55,325
Speaker 1: know what their cargo is, and they get up after

93
00:05:55,365 --> 00:05:58,085
Speaker 1: a few weeks, they get over to Tinnyan Island and

94
00:05:58,125 --> 00:06:01,725
Speaker 1: they drop off the package of the bomb. And then

95
00:06:01,765 --> 00:06:05,645
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, here's your package of little Boy. Is

96
00:06:05,685 --> 00:06:09,725
Speaker 1: your little boy? Is your littlettle boy you ordered? That's

97
00:06:09,765 --> 00:06:15,605
Speaker 1: called sex trafficking, yeah, except bomb trafficking. It's a bomb. Yeah,

98
00:06:15,885 --> 00:06:20,445
Speaker 1: so it is trafficking, except I guess they had permission

99
00:06:20,565 --> 00:06:23,245
Speaker 1: to kill a bunch of people, so it wasn't trafficking.

100
00:06:23,285 --> 00:06:26,245
Speaker 1: As long as you have permissions, you have commission, you

101
00:06:26,285 --> 00:06:29,245
Speaker 1: have permission from other countries to kill a bunch of people,

102
00:06:29,285 --> 00:06:34,165
Speaker 1: It's fine. Ah. This is a really incisive look at

103
00:06:34,285 --> 00:06:37,525
Speaker 1: war here on Cadiver Gause. As we all know, it

104
00:06:37,605 --> 00:06:40,445
Speaker 1: is the most scientific and historically accurate show there is.

105
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:43,445
Speaker 1: I am not even going to blame myself because in

106
00:06:43,525 --> 00:06:46,645
Speaker 1: high school, our history teacher was also the pe coach,

107
00:06:47,005 --> 00:06:51,885
Speaker 1: So I really blame coach Bellis. Yeah. Well, it's kind

108
00:06:51,925 --> 00:06:55,085
Speaker 1: of like our health teacher was also our teacher, which

109
00:06:55,085 --> 00:06:57,925
Speaker 1: makes more sense. But instead of like teaching us anything,

110
00:06:57,965 --> 00:07:02,925
Speaker 1: we just watched Gray's Anatomy and also then we watched

111
00:07:02,925 --> 00:07:05,805
Speaker 1: Donnie Darko to show us what mental illness is like.

112
00:07:06,405 --> 00:07:10,765
Speaker 1: So yes, that is why I him like the coach

113
00:07:10,845 --> 00:07:13,245
Speaker 1: Nez Bent shout out to you. He's in several Usher

114
00:07:13,365 --> 00:07:17,845
Speaker 1: music videos, so thank you for teaching us about mental illness.

115
00:07:18,885 --> 00:07:21,405
Speaker 1: So after they drop off little Boy, they are then

116
00:07:21,445 --> 00:07:23,765
Speaker 1: sailing to the Philippines. This is a big ass ship.

117
00:07:23,805 --> 00:07:27,325
Speaker 1: It's got like twelve hundred dudes on it. And ed

118
00:07:27,765 --> 00:07:30,365
Speaker 1: our man who wrote the book about this incident, he

119
00:07:30,685 --> 00:07:33,965
Speaker 1: was assigned to sort of watch the deck. It was

120
00:07:34,005 --> 00:07:35,965
Speaker 1: at midnight one of the nights a few days after

121
00:07:36,005 --> 00:07:39,365
Speaker 1: they had set sail, and he got a little palette,

122
00:07:39,405 --> 00:07:41,365
Speaker 1: made himself a palette on the deck and was just

123
00:07:41,365 --> 00:07:46,565
Speaker 1: going to go to sleep when suddenly, around midnight, something

124
00:07:46,685 --> 00:07:50,365
Speaker 1: hits the ship. And by something, I mean a torpedo, motherfucker,

125
00:07:50,405 --> 00:07:51,765
Speaker 1: and you could feel a shit of it, and it

126
00:07:51,845 --> 00:07:54,005
Speaker 1: was like thirty feet from her. Ed had was like

127
00:07:54,045 --> 00:07:56,045
Speaker 1: trying to go to sleep, you know, so he obviously

128
00:07:56,085 --> 00:07:59,565
Speaker 1: woke the fuck up. And then suddenly, boom boom, another

129
00:07:59,645 --> 00:08:02,565
Speaker 1: torpedo hits the boat and they're like, oh shit, this

130
00:08:02,645 --> 00:08:05,765
Speaker 1: isn't good because everything starts breaking and the ship is

131
00:08:05,765 --> 00:08:09,165
Speaker 1: basically breaking in half from these two torpedoes. They got

132
00:08:09,245 --> 00:08:12,805
Speaker 1: hit by a Japanese submarine that had actually launched six

133
00:08:12,885 --> 00:08:15,765
Speaker 1: torpedoes at them, but two of them hit and it

134
00:08:15,845 --> 00:08:20,565
Speaker 1: was making the boat sank really fast. That's scary. Yeah,

135
00:08:20,605 --> 00:08:23,005
Speaker 1: I don't ever want to be on a sinking ship. Yeah,

136
00:08:23,005 --> 00:08:25,045
Speaker 1: I don't. I mean emotionally, I think we're all there,

137
00:08:25,125 --> 00:08:30,525
Speaker 1: but on a literal one now anyway, So boat basically

138
00:08:30,605 --> 00:08:34,925
Speaker 1: breaks in half and there's twelve hundred people who are

139
00:08:34,965 --> 00:08:36,925
Speaker 1: on board, and three hundred people do not make it

140
00:08:36,925 --> 00:08:41,165
Speaker 1: off the ship as the boat sank. That's a lot.

141
00:08:41,285 --> 00:08:43,645
Speaker 1: That is a lot. So three hundred people passed away

142
00:08:43,685 --> 00:08:48,205
Speaker 1: that way. And then another big problem is that the

143
00:08:48,245 --> 00:08:50,525
Speaker 1: fuel of the boat gets all over the place, so

144
00:08:50,645 --> 00:08:53,765
Speaker 1: there's like oil. So basically they're falling into an ocean

145
00:08:53,805 --> 00:08:57,485
Speaker 1: of oil and that's not good. Yeah, And so then

146
00:08:57,525 --> 00:09:01,085
Speaker 1: there's nine hundred of them. So imagine this. It is

147
00:09:01,125 --> 00:09:03,525
Speaker 1: the middle of the night, it as hot as fuck.

148
00:09:03,725 --> 00:09:06,725
Speaker 1: You're in a bunch of oil with nine hundred other dudes,

149
00:09:07,205 --> 00:09:09,445
Speaker 1: and three hundred people have just died, and you don't

150
00:09:09,485 --> 00:09:11,605
Speaker 1: know what the fuck's happening, and you're in the literal

151
00:09:11,685 --> 00:09:14,525
Speaker 1: middle of the ocean. Okay, so it's the middle of

152
00:09:14,565 --> 00:09:18,605
Speaker 1: the night, but it's not until the next morning at

153
00:09:18,685 --> 00:09:23,205
Speaker 1: daybreak when they saw the first sign of shark fins

154
00:09:23,285 --> 00:09:27,485
Speaker 1: circling around them. So they've been in the water for

155
00:09:27,525 --> 00:09:30,765
Speaker 1: about six hours and then they start seeing fucking sharks,

156
00:09:31,565 --> 00:09:33,325
Speaker 1: you know, and they don't know what's going on. That's

157
00:09:33,365 --> 00:09:37,885
Speaker 1: so scary, so scary scary. And so what the guys,

158
00:09:37,645 --> 00:09:41,245
Speaker 1: what all the marines and the navy people were doing

159
00:09:41,245 --> 00:09:42,605
Speaker 1: in the water is they were trying to get in

160
00:09:42,685 --> 00:09:45,965
Speaker 1: like larger groups and sorts that they could float together

161
00:09:45,965 --> 00:09:48,445
Speaker 1: because they were like you know, floating out all across

162
00:09:48,485 --> 00:09:51,285
Speaker 1: the ocean basically. And also they were thinking in groups

163
00:09:51,285 --> 00:09:54,405
Speaker 1: they might be safer because they were seeing some of

164
00:09:54,405 --> 00:09:56,405
Speaker 1: the people who had already died in the water, like

165
00:09:56,405 --> 00:09:59,245
Speaker 1: their bodies were being dragged down by the sharks. But

166
00:09:59,285 --> 00:10:01,925
Speaker 1: then there was also any straggler soldiers. You would just

167
00:10:02,005 --> 00:10:04,885
Speaker 1: kind of like see them out in the water and

168
00:10:04,925 --> 00:10:07,845
Speaker 1: then suddenly you would hear like a blood curdling scream

169
00:10:08,165 --> 00:10:11,365
Speaker 1: and they would disappear under the water because the sharks

170
00:10:11,365 --> 00:10:15,125
Speaker 1: had started attacking. That's so scary. You would just you

171
00:10:15,165 --> 00:10:17,005
Speaker 1: just don't know if you're next, and then you just

172
00:10:17,445 --> 00:10:22,005
Speaker 1: boop dragged underwater and eating. Yeah, and by everybody. Not everybody,

173
00:10:22,045 --> 00:10:24,245
Speaker 1: but a lot of people were getting attacked by sharks,

174
00:10:24,245 --> 00:10:25,885
Speaker 1: and so kind of like if you're at the edge

175
00:10:25,885 --> 00:10:29,765
Speaker 1: of these groups, like ed our marine guy, he was

176
00:10:29,805 --> 00:10:31,725
Speaker 1: in a group of eighty people to start out with,

177
00:10:31,805 --> 00:10:34,005
Speaker 1: and then they get kept getting like plucked off like

178
00:10:34,045 --> 00:10:37,765
Speaker 1: on the edges of the group. That's so many people

179
00:10:38,565 --> 00:10:41,005
Speaker 1: that are like still floating around. Yeah, so there's nine

180
00:10:41,085 --> 00:10:43,645
Speaker 1: hundred people and like as the day's hoof, as the

181
00:10:43,685 --> 00:10:45,725
Speaker 1: hours went on, more and more people were dying because

182
00:10:45,725 --> 00:10:48,685
Speaker 1: of variety causes. One was the sharks, and they're just

183
00:10:48,765 --> 00:10:51,685
Speaker 1: like some of the descriptions are just so harrowing, just

184
00:10:51,725 --> 00:10:54,365
Speaker 1: because it's like, you know, you're there with these other

185
00:10:54,365 --> 00:10:57,245
Speaker 1: people who are still like everyone's like fighting to stay alive.

186
00:10:57,925 --> 00:11:01,325
Speaker 1: But then like you're seeing people like disemboweled people like

187
00:11:01,445 --> 00:11:04,125
Speaker 1: just a torso, and you're just like pushing people away

188
00:11:04,125 --> 00:11:05,445
Speaker 1: from you because you don't want the blood to get

189
00:11:05,525 --> 00:11:07,445
Speaker 1: near use to the sharks, don't get attracted to it.

190
00:11:07,525 --> 00:11:11,205
Speaker 1: The PGSD that must have given these poor people, oh

191
00:11:11,285 --> 00:11:13,445
Speaker 1: my gosh. Yeah, Like even when you see them sort

192
00:11:13,445 --> 00:11:16,365
Speaker 1: of describing it, because like most of them are in

193
00:11:16,365 --> 00:11:18,685
Speaker 1: their nineties or they've passed away, all the survivors from this,

194
00:11:19,285 --> 00:11:21,525
Speaker 1: they still like get so terrified when they were sort

195
00:11:21,525 --> 00:11:23,365
Speaker 1: of like you know, talking about it obviously. And there

196
00:11:23,405 --> 00:11:27,165
Speaker 1: was like this one description where like there's this one

197
00:11:27,205 --> 00:11:30,405
Speaker 1: guy who a wave broke over them and like a

198
00:11:30,525 --> 00:11:33,085
Speaker 1: dead body just like slammed right into them, and it

199
00:11:33,125 --> 00:11:35,765
Speaker 1: was just like a disemboweled, like half eaten body. And

200
00:11:36,645 --> 00:11:38,405
Speaker 1: then it was also like they didn't really have any

201
00:11:38,645 --> 00:11:42,285
Speaker 1: food rations obviously. I mean, they had some food rations,

202
00:11:42,805 --> 00:11:45,805
Speaker 1: but there was this one moment where they had opened

203
00:11:45,805 --> 00:11:48,885
Speaker 1: a can of spam, but then that attracted the sharks

204
00:11:48,885 --> 00:11:50,925
Speaker 1: to them, so then they just like got rid of

205
00:11:50,925 --> 00:11:53,285
Speaker 1: all their rations for the most part too. So it's

206
00:11:53,325 --> 00:11:57,885
Speaker 1: kind of like they're starving, they're obviously super dehydrated, and

207
00:11:58,005 --> 00:12:01,005
Speaker 1: there's these sharks attacking them. It's also just like a

208
00:12:01,045 --> 00:12:04,325
Speaker 1: hopeless situation truly, because where do you go. You're in

209
00:12:04,325 --> 00:12:06,085
Speaker 1: the middle of the ocean, Like, where are you going

210
00:12:06,165 --> 00:12:07,645
Speaker 1: to swim? You don't even know what direction to go to,

211
00:12:07,845 --> 00:12:10,645
Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, and you're just also you are literally

212
00:12:10,725 --> 00:12:13,205
Speaker 1: swimming the whole time because they had their life jackets,

213
00:12:13,925 --> 00:12:16,845
Speaker 1: but you know, they would deflate after a while. These

214
00:12:16,925 --> 00:12:21,045
Speaker 1: kpoc jackets aren't meant to last for days for days, yeah,

215
00:12:21,085 --> 00:12:24,165
Speaker 1: they don't last very long. I mean they're for a

216
00:12:24,325 --> 00:12:27,165
Speaker 1: short term. Yeah. And their distress signal, like no one

217
00:12:27,245 --> 00:12:29,165
Speaker 1: was really clear did it get sent out? Did it not?

218
00:12:29,285 --> 00:12:32,125
Speaker 1: Like they literally didn't know that if anybody knew where

219
00:12:32,125 --> 00:12:34,725
Speaker 1: they were, and no one did, Like they no one

220
00:12:34,805 --> 00:12:37,605
Speaker 1: knew where they were. I mean, could you imagine the conversations.

221
00:12:37,645 --> 00:12:39,325
Speaker 1: You're out there for hours and hours and hours and

222
00:12:39,325 --> 00:12:42,685
Speaker 1: hours and hours, and you're like and you're just sitting

223
00:12:42,725 --> 00:12:45,445
Speaker 1: there wondering, I mean, are you are they trying to

224
00:12:46,765 --> 00:12:52,445
Speaker 1: people survived? I know that is how did they get rescued? Well,

225
00:12:52,445 --> 00:12:54,205
Speaker 1: that's the thing is, I don't even think they would

226
00:12:54,205 --> 00:12:56,885
Speaker 1: be having conversations because you are literally just trying to

227
00:12:56,925 --> 00:13:00,085
Speaker 1: preserve all of your energy because you are treading water

228
00:13:00,245 --> 00:13:02,685
Speaker 1: this whole time, and so you were exhausted. You're scared,

229
00:13:03,365 --> 00:13:06,565
Speaker 1: and so ed Harrold, who is the marine? He was saying,

230
00:13:06,605 --> 00:13:08,605
Speaker 1: you know, he started in a group of eighty men.

231
00:13:09,285 --> 00:13:14,005
Speaker 1: By the third day it was three oh three men,

232
00:13:15,245 --> 00:13:17,845
Speaker 1: and by the last day it was just him and

233
00:13:17,925 --> 00:13:22,205
Speaker 1: another guy basically, And for the most part, it's like, yeah,

234
00:13:22,205 --> 00:13:24,605
Speaker 1: people are getting there's obviously the horror of the sharks,

235
00:13:24,605 --> 00:13:27,725
Speaker 1: but it's also like dehydration obviously, and people were starting

236
00:13:27,765 --> 00:13:30,445
Speaker 1: to drink the salt water. There was this one guy

237
00:13:30,565 --> 00:13:34,085
Speaker 1: who said men began drinking the salt water so much

238
00:13:34,085 --> 00:13:36,965
Speaker 1: that they were very delirious. In fact, a lot of

239
00:13:36,965 --> 00:13:39,285
Speaker 1: them had weapons like knives, and they'd be so crazy

240
00:13:39,445 --> 00:13:42,085
Speaker 1: that they'd be fighting amongst themselves and killing one another.

241
00:13:42,125 --> 00:13:44,325
Speaker 1: And then there'd be others that drank so much saltwater

242
00:13:44,365 --> 00:13:46,965
Speaker 1: that they were seeing things even though you don't hallucinate

243
00:13:47,005 --> 00:13:50,525
Speaker 1: from saltwater. You hallucinate from like being dehydrated. And they

244
00:13:50,565 --> 00:13:52,685
Speaker 1: say things like the India is down below and they're

245
00:13:52,725 --> 00:13:54,645
Speaker 1: giving out fresh water and food is in the galley,

246
00:13:54,645 --> 00:13:56,565
Speaker 1: and they'd swim down and a shark would get them

247
00:13:57,285 --> 00:14:00,525
Speaker 1: and you would see the sharks eating your comrade. This

248
00:14:00,605 --> 00:14:07,045
Speaker 1: is horrific, Yeah, yeah, absolutely horrific. Yeah, and so there was,

249
00:14:07,085 --> 00:14:09,205
Speaker 1: you know, the sharks. Also people even though it's like

250
00:14:09,285 --> 00:14:12,245
Speaker 1: hot outside you people are still getting like hypothermia and dying.

251
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:15,245
Speaker 1: And Ed Harrold he said this thing in his book.

252
00:14:15,245 --> 00:14:17,085
Speaker 1: He has like a few quotes that he says again

253
00:14:17,125 --> 00:14:19,805
Speaker 1: and again, but he said, it's much easier to die

254
00:14:19,885 --> 00:14:22,765
Speaker 1: than it is to live, because basically it was just

255
00:14:22,805 --> 00:14:26,965
Speaker 1: like in that instance, you had to muster everything inside

256
00:14:26,965 --> 00:14:30,165
Speaker 1: of you and it's like he was really he described

257
00:14:30,205 --> 00:14:33,085
Speaker 1: this one guy who was in who was the in

258
00:14:33,125 --> 00:14:35,565
Speaker 1: the group of three, one of the guys basically died

259
00:14:35,605 --> 00:14:38,685
Speaker 1: of exhaustion. But the way he described it, it it really

260
00:14:38,685 --> 00:14:42,405
Speaker 1: did seem like he died because of like hopelessness, because

261
00:14:42,485 --> 00:14:46,845
Speaker 1: unless you're like holding onto life, you know, it's just

262
00:14:46,885 --> 00:14:51,325
Speaker 1: like it is so sad and depressing. Yeah, so it yeah, yeah, yeah.

263
00:14:51,365 --> 00:14:53,965
Speaker 1: And so they're in the water for four and a

264
00:14:53,965 --> 00:14:57,605
Speaker 1: half days. That is such a long time. I mean

265
00:14:57,725 --> 00:15:00,125
Speaker 1: I think about like some of just like the longest

266
00:15:00,205 --> 00:15:02,685
Speaker 1: days of just like being at work, Like those are

267
00:15:02,725 --> 00:15:06,285
Speaker 1: some long days. Yeah, And like the only fresh water

268
00:15:06,405 --> 00:15:08,525
Speaker 1: they had is like on the second day, a cloud

269
00:15:08,925 --> 00:15:11,005
Speaker 1: came over and it rained a little bit, so that

270
00:15:11,085 --> 00:15:13,605
Speaker 1: was like all the fresh water that they had, and

271
00:15:13,725 --> 00:15:15,605
Speaker 1: they had at one point there was like a sack

272
00:15:15,645 --> 00:15:18,325
Speaker 1: of potatoes that like floated by or something, so they

273
00:15:18,365 --> 00:15:22,205
Speaker 1: were able to eat like a raw potato, but they

274
00:15:22,245 --> 00:15:25,605
Speaker 1: really didn't have anything. And so what happened then was

275
00:15:25,645 --> 00:15:30,205
Speaker 1: on the fourth day, they're just literally happenstance. A plane

276
00:15:30,285 --> 00:15:33,965
Speaker 1: is flying overhead. It's the American Air Force flying overhead

277
00:15:34,285 --> 00:15:39,165
Speaker 1: basically looking out for Japanese submarines, and they see this

278
00:15:39,205 --> 00:15:42,085
Speaker 1: sort of glistening in the ocean. They're like, oh shit,

279
00:15:42,125 --> 00:15:44,045
Speaker 1: that's probably a submarine. We should like scope it out

280
00:15:44,085 --> 00:15:46,325
Speaker 1: and see what it is. But it just happened to

281
00:15:46,365 --> 00:15:48,365
Speaker 1: be like the badges of one of the men who

282
00:15:48,405 --> 00:15:51,605
Speaker 1: was in the water, and so literally it was pure

283
00:15:51,725 --> 00:15:54,885
Speaker 1: luck that anyone found them. And so they go with

284
00:15:54,925 --> 00:15:56,765
Speaker 1: the plane. The plane that they had couldn't land on water,

285
00:15:56,805 --> 00:15:59,645
Speaker 1: so they radioed back to headquarters. They sent out a

286
00:15:59,685 --> 00:16:02,525
Speaker 1: plane within the hour. There was a technical problem with it,

287
00:16:02,565 --> 00:16:06,245
Speaker 1: so it couldn't land for some reason. But the guy

288
00:16:06,285 --> 00:16:08,045
Speaker 1: who was flying the plane was like, no, I have

289
00:16:08,165 --> 00:16:10,485
Speaker 1: to save these people because he could literally see people

290
00:16:10,525 --> 00:16:14,045
Speaker 1: being eaten by sharks as he approached. So he landed

291
00:16:14,045 --> 00:16:16,485
Speaker 1: the plane. He got like fifty dudes on it, and

292
00:16:16,525 --> 00:16:18,565
Speaker 1: then that's when they started doing the evacuation. But it

293
00:16:18,605 --> 00:16:21,565
Speaker 1: was after four and a half days. So nine hundred

294
00:16:22,085 --> 00:16:27,165
Speaker 1: people went into the water and three hundred people were rescued. Wow,

295
00:16:27,445 --> 00:16:30,245
Speaker 1: that's intense. Yeah, And so it was estimated that anywhere

296
00:16:30,245 --> 00:16:32,085
Speaker 1: because I mean they obviously can't tell. They're saying a

297
00:16:32,125 --> 00:16:34,245
Speaker 1: few dozen to one hundred and fifty people were killed

298
00:16:34,285 --> 00:16:38,085
Speaker 1: by sharks, And there was just like this one stat

299
00:16:38,125 --> 00:16:40,445
Speaker 1: that I saw that it was like people lost in

300
00:16:40,605 --> 00:16:44,165
Speaker 1: four days, like twenty pounds just from like treading water

301
00:16:44,245 --> 00:16:48,725
Speaker 1: and being exhausted. And yeah, it was three hundred and

302
00:16:48,765 --> 00:16:53,205
Speaker 1: sixteen people survived, and this was the worst naval loss

303
00:16:53,725 --> 00:16:59,965
Speaker 1: in US history. It gets saddered too, I mean, so

304
00:17:00,245 --> 00:17:03,045
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of this it's like obviously the

305
00:17:03,125 --> 00:17:05,925
Speaker 1: shark deaths didn't make up the majority. The death of

306
00:17:06,005 --> 00:17:11,365
Speaker 1: majority was like dehydration or hypothermia or exhaustion. Yeah, but

307
00:17:11,485 --> 00:17:13,885
Speaker 1: you see, you see one or two that is like,

308
00:17:14,845 --> 00:17:18,525
Speaker 1: I mean, death is traumatizing. Like seeing your friends and

309
00:17:18,605 --> 00:17:22,325
Speaker 1: like people you work with die for any reason is awful.

310
00:17:22,725 --> 00:17:26,365
Speaker 1: But to see them just like be so like helpless

311
00:17:26,725 --> 00:17:32,565
Speaker 1: in a shark situation, I just can't. Yeah. Yeah. So

312
00:17:32,605 --> 00:17:35,285
Speaker 1: obviously there was like months long recovery for a bunch

313
00:17:35,325 --> 00:17:40,445
Speaker 1: of people mental trauma, probably never fully recovered. Yeah, but afterwards,

314
00:17:40,485 --> 00:17:42,565
Speaker 1: they who were trying to figure out, you know, they

315
00:17:42,605 --> 00:17:45,605
Speaker 1: had to have someone to blame for what happened. And

316
00:17:45,685 --> 00:17:48,005
Speaker 1: so what ended up happening was that the captain of

317
00:17:48,045 --> 00:17:51,725
Speaker 1: the boat, Charles McVay, he survived, and so he was

318
00:17:51,925 --> 00:17:56,405
Speaker 1: court martialed for failing to maneuver the ship in zig zags.

319
00:17:56,925 --> 00:17:59,525
Speaker 1: When you are in enemy waters, you're supposed to zig

320
00:17:59,565 --> 00:18:01,965
Speaker 1: zagg your ship because it makes it harder for torpedoes

321
00:18:01,965 --> 00:18:06,925
Speaker 1: to hit you. So he was moded and it was

322
00:18:06,965 --> 00:18:11,365
Speaker 1: a really controversial verdict. And after that happened, he also

323
00:18:11,405 --> 00:18:14,445
Speaker 1: just got hate mail for years and years, and the

324
00:18:14,485 --> 00:18:18,365
Speaker 1: captain ended up killing himself in nineteen sixty eight. Oh,

325
00:18:18,405 --> 00:18:22,085
Speaker 1: my gosh, that all because of victim blaming. Yeah, because

326
00:18:22,125 --> 00:18:24,405
Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, yeah, should have zig zagged the ship.

327
00:18:24,445 --> 00:18:26,885
Speaker 1: But the fucked up, the really fucked up thing about

328
00:18:26,925 --> 00:18:30,045
Speaker 1: it is that it was found that the US, that

329
00:18:30,205 --> 00:18:33,845
Speaker 1: US intelligence actually knew that there were two Japanese submarines

330
00:18:33,925 --> 00:18:37,845
Speaker 1: where the boat was so like they and yet they

331
00:18:37,885 --> 00:18:41,285
Speaker 1: was still commanded to go to the Philippines. So it's

332
00:18:41,325 --> 00:18:43,445
Speaker 1: really their fault if we're putting the blame on something,

333
00:18:43,445 --> 00:18:45,885
Speaker 1: if we are forcing to put blame on this, on

334
00:18:45,925 --> 00:18:52,925
Speaker 1: this tragedy, Yeah, it's ridiculous. Yes, So that is the

335
00:18:53,125 --> 00:18:57,725
Speaker 1: horror show that was the sinking of the USS Indianapolis,

336
00:18:59,045 --> 00:19:04,285
Speaker 1: and it's sad as fuck. Well, thank you, Gabby. Um,

337
00:19:04,565 --> 00:19:07,325
Speaker 1: we're gonna, you know, take a quick breather, but when

338
00:19:07,325 --> 00:19:10,125
Speaker 1: you come back, we'll talk about more reasons why you

339
00:19:10,125 --> 00:19:19,645
Speaker 1: should be afraid of the ocean. Alrighty, welcome back. So question,

340
00:19:20,245 --> 00:19:22,445
Speaker 1: when you guys are if slash, when you guys are

341
00:19:22,445 --> 00:19:24,885
Speaker 1: at the beach, do you get in the ocean? I

342
00:19:25,005 --> 00:19:28,405
Speaker 1: know this answer actually yeah, of course you know me

343
00:19:28,445 --> 00:19:32,885
Speaker 1: and my jellyfish experience when we went to the beach together. Yes, yes, yes, yes,

344
00:19:34,165 --> 00:19:36,325
Speaker 1: do you ever worry about getting eaten by a shark

345
00:19:36,445 --> 00:19:39,165
Speaker 1: because I think about that every single time. I'll just

346
00:19:39,205 --> 00:19:42,965
Speaker 1: put my little toes in Gabby. I don't know if

347
00:19:42,965 --> 00:19:49,805
Speaker 1: I worry about it that much, but now I am great. Well,

348
00:19:49,805 --> 00:19:54,085
Speaker 1: it's not super It's not like you have a higher

349
00:19:54,165 --> 00:19:56,685
Speaker 1: chance of getting of dying from like a spider bite,

350
00:19:56,765 --> 00:20:00,285
Speaker 1: which is my biggest fear. Or you know, the hippopotamus,

351
00:20:00,325 --> 00:20:03,365
Speaker 1: which is what they always talk about. They who's they?

352
00:20:03,485 --> 00:20:06,485
Speaker 1: Who's talking about hippo deaths? Oh? My, hippos kill a

353
00:20:06,485 --> 00:20:08,525
Speaker 1: lot of people. No, I know, they're massive. I want

354
00:20:08,525 --> 00:20:11,485
Speaker 1: to ride one, but probably not not a great idea,

355
00:20:11,685 --> 00:20:15,365
Speaker 1: Probably not recommend it. It's like a low risk in Atlanta, Georgia.

356
00:20:15,645 --> 00:20:18,965
Speaker 1: You know, I don't. There's not many rogue hippos around

357
00:20:19,085 --> 00:20:22,325
Speaker 1: these parts. So if you are one of those daredevils

358
00:20:22,325 --> 00:20:25,005
Speaker 1: that goes in the ocean, I thought i'd tell you

359
00:20:25,045 --> 00:20:28,405
Speaker 1: about some of the dangerous sharks out there, because I,

360
00:20:28,565 --> 00:20:30,205
Speaker 1: you know, really love animals and I want to talk

361
00:20:30,245 --> 00:20:32,965
Speaker 1: about sharks. Can you give us safety tips as well?

362
00:20:33,085 --> 00:20:36,085
Speaker 1: Or no, of course, But I first want to talk

363
00:20:36,125 --> 00:20:39,885
Speaker 1: about the some of the most dangerous Well, actually, do

364
00:20:39,925 --> 00:20:42,885
Speaker 1: you want to guess how many shark breeds there are,

365
00:20:42,885 --> 00:20:46,085
Speaker 1: because it's like way more than I thought. Sixty two. Okay,

366
00:20:46,125 --> 00:20:50,245
Speaker 1: there's somewhere between the two. Okay, thirty six, No, way

367
00:20:50,285 --> 00:20:54,365
Speaker 1: more than that. Actually five hundred just say it, Taylor, Okay,

368
00:20:54,485 --> 00:20:57,725
Speaker 1: three hundred and seventy five. And of that three hundred

369
00:20:57,725 --> 00:21:00,845
Speaker 1: and seventy five, only twelve are considered to be dangerous

370
00:21:00,885 --> 00:21:04,845
Speaker 1: to humans. So that's the good news. That's yeah. Yeah.

371
00:21:04,885 --> 00:21:08,045
Speaker 1: So first and foremost, we have to worry about Jaws himself,

372
00:21:08,125 --> 00:21:11,805
Speaker 1: aka the Great White shark. They are the big daddies,

373
00:21:11,925 --> 00:21:15,205
Speaker 1: coming in at a whopping eleven twenty four feet, so

374
00:21:15,285 --> 00:21:19,445
Speaker 1: that's like more than four nika lengths long. Thank you,

375
00:21:19,685 --> 00:21:22,205
Speaker 1: I am a in the metric system. You are now

376
00:21:22,285 --> 00:21:26,045
Speaker 1: in our metric system. So if you see that big shark,

377
00:21:26,445 --> 00:21:28,325
Speaker 1: like you need to just get the fork out of there,

378
00:21:28,605 --> 00:21:32,005
Speaker 1: right are Those are really scary. They're really big. You

379
00:21:32,445 --> 00:21:35,565
Speaker 1: can't miss them. And then you also there's the tiger shark,

380
00:21:35,805 --> 00:21:37,765
Speaker 1: which is the next shark you should be afraid of.

381
00:21:38,125 --> 00:21:42,525
Speaker 1: That's about three ish nika's long, so like thirteen to

382
00:21:42,605 --> 00:21:45,045
Speaker 1: sixteen feet. Well, that was one of the ones because

383
00:21:45,045 --> 00:21:47,725
Speaker 1: they had guessed two different breeds of sharks that have

384
00:21:47,845 --> 00:21:51,165
Speaker 1: been attacking the people in the water, and the tiger

385
00:21:51,205 --> 00:21:55,205
Speaker 1: shark was one of them. Yes, those are also incredibly scary.

386
00:21:55,685 --> 00:21:58,045
Speaker 1: And then you have to worry after the tiger shark,

387
00:21:58,125 --> 00:22:00,165
Speaker 1: you also have to be worried about the bull shark,

388
00:22:00,445 --> 00:22:03,405
Speaker 1: which scary fact about these boys and girls. They can

389
00:22:03,445 --> 00:22:06,165
Speaker 1: survive in fresh water for a little bit, so they

390
00:22:06,165 --> 00:22:09,125
Speaker 1: can be found traveling through rivers, so you know, be

391
00:22:09,205 --> 00:22:13,365
Speaker 1: looking out for those river sharks. A river, I will say,

392
00:22:13,485 --> 00:22:17,325
Speaker 1: I would rather swim in the ocean than in a river.

393
00:22:17,605 --> 00:22:20,485
Speaker 1: Rivers just feel kind of forbidden for me. I feel like, yeah,

394
00:22:20,565 --> 00:22:23,565
Speaker 1: I feel like parasites live in rivers, which is a

395
00:22:23,605 --> 00:22:25,805
Speaker 1: little bit scarier to me, which I'm sure there are

396
00:22:26,205 --> 00:22:29,525
Speaker 1: bullsharks live there too, so who knows. You just can't

397
00:22:29,565 --> 00:22:32,365
Speaker 1: swim anywhere because the flesh shitting disease is in the

398
00:22:32,365 --> 00:22:34,365
Speaker 1: hot tubs in the pool. So where are we going

399
00:22:34,445 --> 00:22:37,605
Speaker 1: to swim? Now? There's nowhere safe for you to swim.

400
00:22:37,725 --> 00:22:40,885
Speaker 1: And then you also have the worry of drowning too. Oh,

401
00:22:40,925 --> 00:22:45,205
Speaker 1: I forgot about drowning. Thank you. You're never safe in water,

402
00:22:45,765 --> 00:22:49,165
Speaker 1: so other sharks to be afraid of the oceanic white

403
00:22:49,165 --> 00:22:52,405
Speaker 1: tip shark, which obviously they have a little white tip

404
00:22:52,485 --> 00:22:56,045
Speaker 1: on their dorsal fin, which I'm less stressed about these

405
00:22:56,125 --> 00:22:59,325
Speaker 1: because they like the medium deep waters, which I'm not

406
00:22:59,405 --> 00:23:03,805
Speaker 1: getting in super super deep. That being said, Jacques Cousto

407
00:23:04,205 --> 00:23:06,485
Speaker 1: is quoted saying that they're the dangerous of them all,

408
00:23:06,565 --> 00:23:09,445
Speaker 1: so don't listen to me. Jacques Cousto knows way more

409
00:23:09,485 --> 00:23:15,405
Speaker 1: than me about this sort of thing. Is he a singer? Well,

410
00:23:15,445 --> 00:23:17,645
Speaker 1: that was the other shark that they were thinking or

411
00:23:17,685 --> 00:23:19,805
Speaker 1: was attacking the dudes in the water too, So it

412
00:23:19,845 --> 00:23:23,405
Speaker 1: was the oceanic white tip and the tiger sharks. So yeah,

413
00:23:23,445 --> 00:23:27,165
Speaker 1: those are those are definitely a top five scary scary

414
00:23:27,165 --> 00:23:30,485
Speaker 1: sharks that you don't want to make boys hungry, big daddies.

415
00:23:30,685 --> 00:23:34,205
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. The next one is the blue shark, which

416
00:23:34,325 --> 00:23:37,045
Speaker 1: I actually think is the cutest of the sharks. They're

417
00:23:37,085 --> 00:23:40,165
Speaker 1: like long and skinny with big old black eyes, and

418
00:23:40,205 --> 00:23:43,445
Speaker 1: they have the super long, skinny kind of nose. Super cute.

419
00:23:44,245 --> 00:23:47,085
Speaker 1: Then you have the short fin maco, which they're kind

420
00:23:47,085 --> 00:23:50,565
Speaker 1: of dirty looking, but they're really fast, so they can

421
00:23:50,605 --> 00:23:52,965
Speaker 1: swim at like forty five miles per hour, so you're

422
00:23:53,045 --> 00:23:56,485
Speaker 1: pretty much cannot swim that one. I hope the mako

423
00:23:56,605 --> 00:23:59,325
Speaker 1: gets you because you just called it dirty. He's so

424
00:23:59,685 --> 00:24:01,845
Speaker 1: he's cute too, but he's a little bit dirty. I'm

425
00:24:01,845 --> 00:24:04,765
Speaker 1: just imagining Taylor getting attacked by a shark being like, oh,

426
00:24:04,805 --> 00:24:10,285
Speaker 1: it's so cute, you just take them open arms. I

427
00:24:10,365 --> 00:24:15,445
Speaker 1: mean no, I would be very scared. Um. So then

428
00:24:15,725 --> 00:24:18,005
Speaker 1: there's the black tip shark, which again you guessed it

429
00:24:18,365 --> 00:24:20,885
Speaker 1: black tips on their fins, but I'm going to say

430
00:24:20,885 --> 00:24:24,645
Speaker 1: that they're like the second cutest, just if we're playing

431
00:24:24,685 --> 00:24:28,325
Speaker 1: on that, and then the hammer head shark, um, which

432
00:24:28,365 --> 00:24:31,685
Speaker 1: you don't want to be swimming to night? Yeah? Is

433
00:24:31,725 --> 00:24:33,645
Speaker 1: it wasn't that one of the ones to Gabby the

434
00:24:33,685 --> 00:24:35,725
Speaker 1: hammer head? No, I think it was just the time

435
00:24:35,925 --> 00:24:38,805
Speaker 1: these guys like to hunt at night. Well I don't

436
00:24:38,845 --> 00:24:43,005
Speaker 1: think it was hammer heads, um, because it wasn't hammertime, right,

437
00:24:43,085 --> 00:24:46,765
Speaker 1: the hammer head times, and um, hammertime wasn't invented back then,

438
00:24:46,845 --> 00:24:49,885
Speaker 1: so wasn't the hammer head The hammer head was in

439
00:24:50,045 --> 00:24:55,245
Speaker 1: that movie about that missing child fish fish child Nemo. Oh,

440
00:24:57,685 --> 00:24:59,525
Speaker 1: one of them was a hammer head, one of them

441
00:24:59,605 --> 00:25:05,045
Speaker 1: was a great white shark, and then along that could

442
00:25:05,045 --> 00:25:07,245
Speaker 1: have been one of my cute guys. I'm going to

443
00:25:07,325 --> 00:25:12,325
Speaker 1: stay Taylor, how do I protect myself? Don't you worry?

444
00:25:12,365 --> 00:25:14,485
Speaker 1: I mean you should be worried if you're getting attacked

445
00:25:14,485 --> 00:25:17,725
Speaker 1: by a shark. Well, first things first, if you don't

446
00:25:18,045 --> 00:25:20,045
Speaker 1: want to get attacked by a shark, it is just

447
00:25:20,085 --> 00:25:23,485
Speaker 1: not even recommended that you get in the water, So

448
00:25:25,045 --> 00:25:29,365
Speaker 1: great advice. Don't be in the welcome they can't step on.

449
00:25:29,605 --> 00:25:34,325
Speaker 1: Don't get in exactly step two, don't dress like a seal,

450
00:25:34,605 --> 00:25:37,325
Speaker 1: so like, don't wear a dark wetsuit because they can

451
00:25:37,365 --> 00:25:39,805
Speaker 1: mistake you for a seal. These are there's just the

452
00:25:39,805 --> 00:25:43,885
Speaker 1: safety precautions so stupid. I'm just like getting in the

453
00:25:43,885 --> 00:25:46,445
Speaker 1: water dressed up as a seal, you know, just a

454
00:25:46,525 --> 00:25:50,005
Speaker 1: dark worries everywhere are so upset, so we're like a

455
00:25:50,205 --> 00:25:55,525
Speaker 1: neon sue. Yes, but nothing sparkly because that could be

456
00:25:55,525 --> 00:26:00,245
Speaker 1: misconstrued as bait. Another thing is is don't be swimming

457
00:26:00,285 --> 00:26:03,165
Speaker 1: where people are fishing. And that is like one of

458
00:26:03,205 --> 00:26:07,725
Speaker 1: my biggest pet peeves. I cannot stand those people who

459
00:26:07,805 --> 00:26:11,445
Speaker 1: fish on a beach where there's people swimming. They're literally

460
00:26:11,885 --> 00:26:16,685
Speaker 1: luring in these sharks. And not only that, if you're

461
00:26:16,885 --> 00:26:18,445
Speaker 1: going for a walk on the beach, then you can

462
00:26:18,445 --> 00:26:21,485
Speaker 1: be closelined by them. So basically, if you are one

463
00:26:21,525 --> 00:26:23,565
Speaker 1: of those people that does that, I aggressively do not

464
00:26:23,645 --> 00:26:28,645
Speaker 1: like you, and you should trip on a sandcastle. Trip

465
00:26:28,685 --> 00:26:33,325
Speaker 1: on a sandcastle, Taylor. Yeah, gotta say. I hope a

466
00:26:33,445 --> 00:26:41,285
Speaker 1: spoon um breaks your garbage disposal. Oh, I hope you

467
00:26:41,325 --> 00:26:45,405
Speaker 1: wake up with just an unexplainable sadness that you never

468
00:26:45,445 --> 00:26:51,085
Speaker 1: get over. Okay, anyway, what else can I do? Taylor? Okay?

469
00:26:51,125 --> 00:26:53,445
Speaker 1: The other thing is is if you're bleeding, don't go

470
00:26:53,485 --> 00:26:55,805
Speaker 1: in the water. They'll smell it, they'll go towards it.

471
00:26:57,245 --> 00:26:59,765
Speaker 1: Question Mark. I mean, try not to like free bleed

472
00:26:59,765 --> 00:27:02,365
Speaker 1: in the ocean, I guess, try not to have everywhere.

473
00:27:03,445 --> 00:27:05,765
Speaker 1: Don't be, don't if you're a woman, don't get in

474
00:27:05,805 --> 00:27:08,325
Speaker 1: the water. Don't again, if you're a woman, just don't,

475
00:27:08,405 --> 00:27:12,285
Speaker 1: don't be, Just don't. Okay, But I think, honestly, I

476
00:27:12,285 --> 00:27:14,085
Speaker 1: think all of those are kind of a given. But

477
00:27:14,725 --> 00:27:18,125
Speaker 1: if you find your way in the ocean and you're

478
00:27:18,165 --> 00:27:21,205
Speaker 1: staring a shark in the face, keep doing that. What

479
00:27:21,245 --> 00:27:23,365
Speaker 1: they like to do is they like to circle you,

480
00:27:23,405 --> 00:27:25,245
Speaker 1: and they like to get you from behind, like a

481
00:27:25,245 --> 00:27:28,845
Speaker 1: little goose from behind, you know. So it's advice that

482
00:27:28,965 --> 00:27:33,805
Speaker 1: you just try and stay facing it and slowly swim backwards,

483
00:27:34,325 --> 00:27:39,285
Speaker 1: so be practicing your frogger staring contests and stuff. Lastly,

484
00:27:39,405 --> 00:27:41,805
Speaker 1: and like, typically they'll just go away if that happens.

485
00:27:41,845 --> 00:27:44,725
Speaker 1: But if they do get you, all I can say

486
00:27:44,725 --> 00:27:47,485
Speaker 1: to do is fight back, try and go for the gills,

487
00:27:48,045 --> 00:27:53,245
Speaker 1: go for the eyes, literally wherever they often get They're like,

488
00:27:53,365 --> 00:27:55,845
Speaker 1: oh this is this is too much of a struggle.

489
00:27:55,925 --> 00:27:58,125
Speaker 1: I just don't even feel like eating you. You're kind

490
00:27:58,125 --> 00:28:00,805
Speaker 1: of you're kind of too hard to eat. So then

491
00:28:00,845 --> 00:28:03,525
Speaker 1: they might move on. But yeah, so basically, just don't

492
00:28:03,525 --> 00:28:07,525
Speaker 1: get in the water. That's long, very short, great advice,

493
00:28:08,205 --> 00:28:10,885
Speaker 1: You're welcome. I guess maybe I should work out some

494
00:28:11,085 --> 00:28:13,005
Speaker 1: so I can be stronger, because I feel like if

495
00:28:13,005 --> 00:28:15,565
Speaker 1: I thought back against a shark, it wouldn't really do much.

496
00:28:16,205 --> 00:28:18,245
Speaker 1: And I don't really have full control of my limbs,

497
00:28:18,245 --> 00:28:20,485
Speaker 1: so I need to get better aim. Well. When I

498
00:28:20,525 --> 00:28:22,325
Speaker 1: was a kid, my mom always said, you know, she

499
00:28:22,365 --> 00:28:24,445
Speaker 1: didn't ever want us going in deeper than like our

500
00:28:24,485 --> 00:28:27,845
Speaker 1: belly button. But this one day I got a little

501
00:28:27,885 --> 00:28:32,405
Speaker 1: too deep, me and my older sister. And this, I'm

502
00:28:32,445 --> 00:28:34,205
Speaker 1: telling you, that was a shark. I don't know what kind.

503
00:28:34,245 --> 00:28:36,085
Speaker 1: I wasn't well versed in the breeds at the time.

504
00:28:36,565 --> 00:28:40,045
Speaker 1: But I got a little tankled up in a giant

505
00:28:40,565 --> 00:28:46,285
Speaker 1: shark like fish. Oh yeah, And basically I just got

506
00:28:46,285 --> 00:28:48,005
Speaker 1: like tangled up with it and it like hit me

507
00:28:48,045 --> 00:28:50,085
Speaker 1: on the back with its fins and I had like

508
00:28:50,205 --> 00:28:53,725
Speaker 1: a bruised back and like red marks all over my back.

509
00:28:53,765 --> 00:28:56,445
Speaker 1: It was like really scary. It's very just left you alone.

510
00:28:57,805 --> 00:29:01,085
Speaker 1: I didn't get bitten, but I like it was like

511
00:29:02,365 --> 00:29:04,005
Speaker 1: with its tail. Do you want to know something that

512
00:29:04,005 --> 00:29:09,085
Speaker 1: white people do sometimes? Yeah, I'm sure I already know. Well,

513
00:29:09,125 --> 00:29:12,405
Speaker 1: I was talking to someone I know, and they told

514
00:29:12,405 --> 00:29:14,405
Speaker 1: me that when they were younger, they went to a

515
00:29:14,445 --> 00:29:18,525
Speaker 1: movie screening that was on the water of where Jaws

516
00:29:19,085 --> 00:29:22,605
Speaker 1: is set. Basically they got to watch the movie on

517
00:29:22,725 --> 00:29:26,605
Speaker 1: floaties with like a big projector inside of the water,

518
00:29:26,685 --> 00:29:30,565
Speaker 1: and they had actors going around in the ocean with

519
00:29:30,685 --> 00:29:34,165
Speaker 1: shark fins and they would scare you in scary moments.

520
00:29:34,565 --> 00:29:37,685
Speaker 1: I don't like them. That's weird, Gabby, would you partake? Um?

521
00:29:38,045 --> 00:29:40,365
Speaker 1: I think I would like to be the person who's scaring,

522
00:29:40,645 --> 00:29:43,685
Speaker 1: Like I would wear the costs do and like creep

523
00:29:43,765 --> 00:29:45,445
Speaker 1: up on people. I think I would do a good

524
00:29:45,525 --> 00:29:47,765
Speaker 1: job at that. You would, I think you would be

525
00:29:47,805 --> 00:29:51,405
Speaker 1: good at that. Yeah, I'm a proud creeper, so i'd

526
00:29:51,445 --> 00:29:56,005
Speaker 1: be that seems like the profession for me. All right, Well,

527
00:29:56,165 --> 00:29:59,685
Speaker 1: at any rate, be careful out there. There are sharks.

528
00:29:59,845 --> 00:30:03,885
Speaker 1: Don't worry, they're not It's not super likely to happen.

529
00:30:04,125 --> 00:30:09,285
Speaker 1: But we're just fear fearmongering right now. Those shark attacks

530
00:30:09,285 --> 00:30:13,485
Speaker 1: are on the rise steadily from nineteen hundreds, so they are. However,

531
00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:16,365
Speaker 1: the reason that they're on the rise is not global warming.

532
00:30:16,405 --> 00:30:19,205
Speaker 1: We can't blame global warming for this one. It's because

533
00:30:19,205 --> 00:30:23,445
Speaker 1: of tourism. There's more people in the oceans, therefore more

534
00:30:23,525 --> 00:30:26,365
Speaker 1: chances that people will get it. Looks like there's too

535
00:30:26,405 --> 00:30:33,405
Speaker 1: many people. I think we need a plague. Oh wait, anyway, sorry,

536
00:30:33,525 --> 00:30:36,645
Speaker 1: that was honestly a terrible joke. Well, you know what,

537
00:30:36,765 --> 00:30:39,645
Speaker 1: I think that was a great segue to then tell

538
00:30:39,685 --> 00:30:43,645
Speaker 1: our listeners why they should be afraid of fairies. That's

539
00:30:43,645 --> 00:30:49,445
Speaker 1: a terrible segue actually, But nonetheless, I am afraid I

540
00:30:49,485 --> 00:30:51,885
Speaker 1: want our listeners to know that, Yeah, we're fearmongering, but

541
00:30:51,965 --> 00:30:54,205
Speaker 1: that is kind of like the premise of the show.

542
00:30:54,645 --> 00:30:58,445
Speaker 1: But really, you're probably you're probably safe. You know, you're

543
00:30:58,445 --> 00:31:01,805
Speaker 1: probably gonna be okay, except for all probably gonna be

544
00:31:01,805 --> 00:31:03,925
Speaker 1: okay until you actually die. These are just ways that

545
00:31:03,965 --> 00:31:06,485
Speaker 1: you could die. These are just some slicker poo poo

546
00:31:06,525 --> 00:31:12,485
Speaker 1: platter of death. Anyway, Nika, let's hear about these fairies. Yeah. Also,

547
00:31:12,565 --> 00:31:14,765
Speaker 1: the pandemic has nothing to make light of, but sometimes

548
00:31:14,805 --> 00:31:21,045
Speaker 1: we made light of things to somehow cope with them. Okay, fairies, fairies. Yes,

549
00:31:21,525 --> 00:31:24,925
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of all silly Actually, I'm going

550
00:31:24,965 --> 00:31:27,325
Speaker 1: to take that back, not silly things, because I actually

551
00:31:27,445 --> 00:31:31,365
Speaker 1: very much respect the forces, the invisible forces that surround us.

552
00:31:31,725 --> 00:31:35,725
Speaker 1: I just love learning about these things exactly. So I

553
00:31:35,845 --> 00:31:43,325
Speaker 1: say we, uh, you know, skip on down to twenty fourteen, okay,

554
00:31:43,365 --> 00:31:47,845
Speaker 1: and at this cottage, at this cottage in and I

555
00:31:47,845 --> 00:31:49,725
Speaker 1: can't beef I'm gonna say this, but for the first time,

556
00:31:50,325 --> 00:31:54,925
Speaker 1: I am sorry for my pronunciation if it's terrible. Balininagara

557
00:31:55,085 --> 00:32:01,045
Speaker 1: bog in Lisnaw, Ireland. It is this small village in

558
00:32:01,165 --> 00:32:05,165
Speaker 1: West Ireland. And this teeny tiny white cottage in this

559
00:32:06,365 --> 00:32:09,245
Speaker 1: is owned by the county. You know, it's kind of

560
00:32:09,245 --> 00:32:12,245
Speaker 1: It has this like long winding dirt road and has

561
00:32:12,365 --> 00:32:15,965
Speaker 1: lots of overgrown brush um and this cottage has been

562
00:32:15,965 --> 00:32:19,725
Speaker 1: abandoned for about seven years. It has had five residents

563
00:32:19,805 --> 00:32:23,485
Speaker 1: in the past twenty five years, and every single one

564
00:32:23,485 --> 00:32:29,725
Speaker 1: of them has died under mysterious or random slash strange circumstances.

565
00:32:30,245 --> 00:32:34,165
Speaker 1: According to legend, this house is haunted by violent fairies.

566
00:32:34,285 --> 00:32:42,485
Speaker 1: Oh no, that's said exactly. Well, let's just eradicate the

567
00:32:42,525 --> 00:32:45,085
Speaker 1: notion of a good or a bad fairy. Okay, like this,

568
00:32:45,405 --> 00:32:48,245
Speaker 1: they are very complicated. Oh, you're right, that's a good Yeah.

569
00:32:48,285 --> 00:32:51,005
Speaker 1: I take it back too, because I also think with people,

570
00:32:51,045 --> 00:32:53,005
Speaker 1: there's no such thing as I good or bad or

571
00:32:53,005 --> 00:32:55,925
Speaker 1: whatever exactly. So you're right. I'm sorry I applied that

572
00:32:56,005 --> 00:33:00,165
Speaker 1: to another species, a real species of things. Yeah, there

573
00:33:00,205 --> 00:33:03,925
Speaker 1: you go, Gabby. Yeah, So here's the tea. First of all,

574
00:33:04,205 --> 00:33:06,885
Speaker 1: I have I want to just say this to anyone

575
00:33:07,245 --> 00:33:10,445
Speaker 1: or anything listening. I have a lot of respect for

576
00:33:10,485 --> 00:33:13,845
Speaker 1: the spiritual and the supernatural world, and we're just sharing

577
00:33:13,885 --> 00:33:17,365
Speaker 1: this story about sometimes they like to call themselves or

578
00:33:17,405 --> 00:33:19,605
Speaker 1: like for people to call them the little people or

579
00:33:19,645 --> 00:33:23,325
Speaker 1: the good folk. So we're just sharing these stories about

580
00:33:23,365 --> 00:33:28,765
Speaker 1: these creatures. I mean no disrespect, because I don't want

581
00:33:28,765 --> 00:33:32,485
Speaker 1: to anger anything that that doesn't need to be angered.

582
00:33:32,485 --> 00:33:38,845
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, yeah, just in case they're listening anyway. Now.

583
00:33:38,845 --> 00:33:43,725
Speaker 1: According to Eddie Lenihan, who is this professional Irish storyteller

584
00:33:43,805 --> 00:33:47,405
Speaker 1: and fairy lobbyist, he advocates for the rights of fairies,

585
00:33:47,925 --> 00:33:51,045
Speaker 1: the house, the cottage probably was built on a fairy

586
00:33:51,085 --> 00:33:55,205
Speaker 1: path or a funeral path or a fairy fort, which

587
00:33:55,245 --> 00:33:59,365
Speaker 1: is basically this prehistoric circular settlement made of like stone

588
00:33:59,445 --> 00:34:02,045
Speaker 1: or earth. Who find them a lot in Ireland and

589
00:34:02,045 --> 00:34:05,125
Speaker 1: in Britain and in Germany. And he basically says that

590
00:34:05,485 --> 00:34:09,925
Speaker 1: building on a fairy path is a major mistake because

591
00:34:10,045 --> 00:34:13,245
Speaker 1: fairies do not like their sacred paths to be disturbed,

592
00:34:13,405 --> 00:34:17,605
Speaker 1: and yeah, they're taking their land exactly. Yeah, And essentially

593
00:34:17,725 --> 00:34:20,765
Speaker 1: fairy paths are sacred because it's the only way that

594
00:34:20,845 --> 00:34:23,525
Speaker 1: fairies can get to where they're going. It's kind of

595
00:34:23,565 --> 00:34:27,085
Speaker 1: like a highway. And so when you disturb their path,

596
00:34:27,325 --> 00:34:29,165
Speaker 1: they have to figure out like a new route to

597
00:34:29,205 --> 00:34:30,885
Speaker 1: go on. And then it's not very easy. Those have

598
00:34:31,045 --> 00:34:33,365
Speaker 1: been there for centuries, you know, so if you just

599
00:34:33,445 --> 00:34:35,965
Speaker 1: drop a cottage on there, or you know, build something

600
00:34:35,965 --> 00:34:39,325
Speaker 1: new over there, they're probably going to get mad. And

601
00:34:39,525 --> 00:34:41,925
Speaker 1: when they get mad, they kind of get violent. And

602
00:34:41,925 --> 00:34:46,045
Speaker 1: what's interesting is this is yeah, exactly, get mad get.

603
00:34:46,085 --> 00:34:50,005
Speaker 1: Even so, this is actually a super common belief in Ireland,

604
00:34:50,045 --> 00:34:53,485
Speaker 1: which I think is very interesting, especially in the rural areas,

605
00:34:53,805 --> 00:34:57,125
Speaker 1: and a lot of it is associated or derived from

606
00:34:57,205 --> 00:35:01,685
Speaker 1: Celtic folklore. There are ways, and still to this day

607
00:35:01,725 --> 00:35:06,565
Speaker 1: this happens that farmers and landowners protect themselves again accidentally

608
00:35:06,925 --> 00:35:11,045
Speaker 1: angering fairies. Like some builders they will stick a spade

609
00:35:11,165 --> 00:35:13,885
Speaker 1: or a set of rocks in a particular formation on

610
00:35:13,925 --> 00:35:16,485
Speaker 1: the land they're planning to build on, and they wait

611
00:35:16,525 --> 00:35:18,325
Speaker 1: one night and then if the spade or if the

612
00:35:18,405 --> 00:35:20,765
Speaker 1: rocks are still there, it is okay to build on.

613
00:35:20,965 --> 00:35:26,845
Speaker 1: But if they've moved, then construction immediately stops, which is fascinating.

614
00:35:27,005 --> 00:35:30,005
Speaker 1: And this woman, Yeah, and this woman also in twenty fourteen,

615
00:35:30,365 --> 00:35:33,165
Speaker 1: reported that she was going over her property portfolio with

616
00:35:33,805 --> 00:35:37,805
Speaker 1: her banker and she just had like some land owned

617
00:35:37,805 --> 00:35:39,725
Speaker 1: by her family and she just wanted to go over

618
00:35:39,765 --> 00:35:42,245
Speaker 1: it with her a bank manager, and the manager asked

619
00:35:42,285 --> 00:35:46,245
Speaker 1: her if there were any fairies on her property, like

620
00:35:46,525 --> 00:35:50,365
Speaker 1: an actual like banking question that's like a part of

621
00:35:50,365 --> 00:35:55,245
Speaker 1: the questionnaire. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, which I just find so interesting,

622
00:35:55,245 --> 00:35:56,725
Speaker 1: Like what do you reply to that I don't like,

623
00:35:56,805 --> 00:35:59,805
Speaker 1: I don't know, you answer the question Mika, yes or

624
00:36:00,525 --> 00:36:03,845
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just like, what if we had

625
00:36:03,925 --> 00:36:10,125
Speaker 1: this amount of respect for like real people can't even imagine.

626
00:36:10,525 --> 00:36:14,845
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't imagine what that would be like. Yeah,

627
00:36:14,885 --> 00:36:18,965
Speaker 1: and it's actually super fascinating. There was this case one

628
00:36:19,005 --> 00:36:22,525
Speaker 1: time that our very own fairy lobbyist was a part

629
00:36:22,565 --> 00:36:25,925
Speaker 1: of where there was a known fairy fort and it

630
00:36:25,965 --> 00:36:29,085
Speaker 1: was a place seen as sacred to the good people

631
00:36:29,565 --> 00:36:32,445
Speaker 1: the city or the county will actually protect it. And

632
00:36:32,525 --> 00:36:36,365
Speaker 1: this happened in nineteen ninety nine. This one hundred million

633
00:36:36,405 --> 00:36:41,125
Speaker 1: pound highway bypass was being built in Latoon, Ireland, and

634
00:36:41,285 --> 00:36:44,845
Speaker 1: it was going to demolish what our fairy lobbyists called

635
00:36:44,845 --> 00:36:48,445
Speaker 1: a sacred fairy bush. He said that fairies would go

636
00:36:48,485 --> 00:36:50,285
Speaker 1: there often and it was like a fort for them,

637
00:36:50,285 --> 00:36:54,085
Speaker 1: but it was very spiritual and special, and our friend

638
00:36:54,245 --> 00:36:56,845
Speaker 1: Eddie literally warred in the government that if they built

639
00:36:56,885 --> 00:37:00,125
Speaker 1: over the bush there would be dire consequences, things like

640
00:37:00,325 --> 00:37:03,725
Speaker 1: constant car accidents or really bad luck or just random

641
00:37:03,805 --> 00:37:06,085
Speaker 1: deaths around the area would start half opening. He kind

642
00:37:06,085 --> 00:37:10,685
Speaker 1: of threatened the government question Mark, Um, okay, I mean

643
00:37:10,685 --> 00:37:14,885
Speaker 1: it's not him. The government listened. Could you imagine in

644
00:37:15,125 --> 00:37:17,845
Speaker 1: America if we did that, like, what would what would

645
00:37:17,845 --> 00:37:21,085
Speaker 1: the government say? They'd be like, I don't know, I

646
00:37:21,085 --> 00:37:24,525
Speaker 1: mean we could we could always try um like oh

647
00:37:24,605 --> 00:37:26,805
Speaker 1: my gosh, like in parks and rec when the Native

648
00:37:26,845 --> 00:37:29,725
Speaker 1: American character is like and now we will curse you

649
00:37:29,925 --> 00:37:31,485
Speaker 1: until you fix this, and the white people were like,

650
00:37:31,485 --> 00:37:33,725
Speaker 1: oh my god, I don't want to get cursed. Anyway,

651
00:37:34,245 --> 00:37:37,605
Speaker 1: they listened, and he and some people in the community

652
00:37:37,685 --> 00:37:41,245
Speaker 1: actually rallied around preserving the bush, and the council found

653
00:37:41,245 --> 00:37:43,485
Speaker 1: a way to work around it and fence the bush

654
00:37:43,485 --> 00:37:45,365
Speaker 1: in so the bush would like never be touched by

655
00:37:45,445 --> 00:37:48,485
Speaker 1: like construction or vandalism or anything like that, which is

656
00:37:48,565 --> 00:37:54,805
Speaker 1: just fascinating. Yes, protect protect the bush. Not during my

657
00:37:54,845 --> 00:37:59,405
Speaker 1: Brazilians though. Anyway, In our haunted cottage, as I said,

658
00:37:59,965 --> 00:38:03,165
Speaker 1: it's been abandoned for about seven years now, there were

659
00:38:03,205 --> 00:38:06,725
Speaker 1: five people that died. Strangely, so, the first person who

660
00:38:06,725 --> 00:38:09,645
Speaker 1: lived there actually fell asleep while smoking a cigarette and

661
00:38:09,645 --> 00:38:12,765
Speaker 1: then died of smoke in elation. And then another person,

662
00:38:13,005 --> 00:38:15,405
Speaker 1: oh this is bad, hung himself and he was fought

663
00:38:15,445 --> 00:38:18,405
Speaker 1: by his neighbors. And then another died in this random

664
00:38:18,405 --> 00:38:21,645
Speaker 1: car accident just like strange, weird, you know, just out

665
00:38:21,645 --> 00:38:24,125
Speaker 1: of nowhere kind of things. And then another got stabbed

666
00:38:24,165 --> 00:38:26,085
Speaker 1: in a different city. I think it was in Wales.

667
00:38:26,605 --> 00:38:29,085
Speaker 1: And then the most recent it's kind of like the

668
00:38:29,125 --> 00:38:33,125
Speaker 1: most convoluted one and scariest probably she was murdered in

669
00:38:33,205 --> 00:38:37,205
Speaker 1: one of the bedrooms. Yeah, and so by her son.

670
00:38:38,205 --> 00:38:43,085
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she was sixty two and according to authorities

671
00:38:43,085 --> 00:38:45,765
Speaker 1: and what I found, she was killed by her autistic

672
00:38:45,805 --> 00:38:48,325
Speaker 1: teenage son who lived with her. And I think he's

673
00:38:48,405 --> 00:38:50,525
Speaker 1: now or he was back then. I don't know where

674
00:38:50,525 --> 00:38:53,525
Speaker 1: he is now, but he's in a psychiatric hospital. So wow,

675
00:38:53,965 --> 00:38:57,165
Speaker 1: it's like, is that all a kuween kid? You know,

676
00:38:57,365 --> 00:38:59,965
Speaker 1: like those were the last five people who lived in

677
00:38:59,965 --> 00:39:04,005
Speaker 1: that house. Yeah. So a lot of people in that

678
00:39:04,085 --> 00:39:08,005
Speaker 1: small town are asking the government to tear down the

679
00:39:08,045 --> 00:39:11,045
Speaker 1: cottage basically because they think it has something to do

680
00:39:11,245 --> 00:39:15,925
Speaker 1: with weird unexplained phenomena. And Ireland is again like so

681
00:39:15,965 --> 00:39:19,165
Speaker 1: strong with like cealthic association, fairies and stuff like that

682
00:39:19,165 --> 00:39:20,965
Speaker 1: that they just think it's like fairies putting a curse

683
00:39:21,005 --> 00:39:24,725
Speaker 1: on these people. Wow. That's the government has not made

684
00:39:24,725 --> 00:39:27,205
Speaker 1: a decision yet, so I think they're still thinking about it.

685
00:39:27,245 --> 00:39:30,805
Speaker 1: They're still they're still pondering. I mean, I think that like,

686
00:39:30,845 --> 00:39:33,045
Speaker 1: once it comes to a point where like so many people,

687
00:39:33,285 --> 00:39:36,885
Speaker 1: like so many strange things like that, you know, have

688
00:39:36,925 --> 00:39:40,765
Speaker 1: happened in one area, we should just you know, there's

689
00:39:40,805 --> 00:39:43,325
Speaker 1: something going on there. We should just let it, you know,

690
00:39:43,445 --> 00:39:46,965
Speaker 1: let it be. Let's not nobody lived there. Let's just

691
00:39:47,805 --> 00:39:52,485
Speaker 1: protect ourselves and protect the people that maybe there, start

692
00:39:52,725 --> 00:39:56,365
Speaker 1: start fresh, you know, yeah, just tear it down. I mean,

693
00:39:56,405 --> 00:39:59,085
Speaker 1: whether or not it's fairies, it just has. Usually people

694
00:39:59,125 --> 00:40:02,565
Speaker 1: don't like living in places where someone has died recently,

695
00:40:02,885 --> 00:40:05,885
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's like after

696
00:40:05,965 --> 00:40:09,685
Speaker 1: five people like, there's definitely not good vibes going on there,

697
00:40:09,685 --> 00:40:12,765
Speaker 1: so we should just like so even if you don't

698
00:40:12,805 --> 00:40:18,565
Speaker 1: believe in fairies, you gotta believe in vibes exactly. Well,

699
00:40:18,605 --> 00:40:20,645
Speaker 1: it's true, Like I mean, would you want to live

700
00:40:20,685 --> 00:40:23,885
Speaker 1: somewhere if you know that someone's died there? Maybe that

701
00:40:24,005 --> 00:40:28,565
Speaker 1: was the little people's plan all along, the good folk.

702
00:40:28,885 --> 00:40:32,485
Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, we'll talk about some

703
00:40:32,525 --> 00:40:41,285
Speaker 1: more fairy tales. Okay, welcome back all you could daver

704
00:40:41,445 --> 00:40:45,565
Speaker 1: gals and pals and pals. So I want to I

705
00:40:45,605 --> 00:40:50,965
Speaker 1: did a little dive into this Irish folklore, if you will,

706
00:40:51,565 --> 00:40:57,325
Speaker 1: And these little people are also called dana she or

707
00:40:57,685 --> 00:41:01,725
Speaker 1: she or sheet, so the dana she is actually the

708
00:41:01,725 --> 00:41:08,085
Speaker 1: proper terminology, and it's actually offense to call them fairies.

709
00:41:08,765 --> 00:41:10,845
Speaker 1: I literally knew it. That's why I did that PSA,

710
00:41:10,885 --> 00:41:13,085
Speaker 1: because I was like, I just want to say, but

711
00:41:13,205 --> 00:41:16,125
Speaker 1: let me tell you, but let me tell you why.

712
00:41:16,445 --> 00:41:20,085
Speaker 1: It's because it's like in implying this like Tinkerbell type

713
00:41:20,085 --> 00:41:23,725
Speaker 1: that like these you know, dainty little things with wings

714
00:41:23,765 --> 00:41:26,325
Speaker 1: that are like, you know, we're in short skirts and whatnot,

715
00:41:26,325 --> 00:41:30,205
Speaker 1: Like that's just not the case. Oh it's not why

716
00:41:30,965 --> 00:41:33,125
Speaker 1: I just because I just made a face that was like, well,

717
00:41:33,565 --> 00:41:37,725
Speaker 1: we don't is there a case like acing to according

718
00:41:37,765 --> 00:41:41,005
Speaker 1: to this, according to my research's not the case. They

719
00:41:41,045 --> 00:41:45,325
Speaker 1: wear long skirts, right, they wear long skirts and pants

720
00:41:45,365 --> 00:41:48,085
Speaker 1: and whatever they want, because you know, they don't there's

721
00:41:48,165 --> 00:41:51,565
Speaker 1: no they don't need to adhere to the beauty standards

722
00:41:51,605 --> 00:41:55,045
Speaker 1: of our society exactly anyway. So they are actually believed

723
00:41:55,045 --> 00:42:00,285
Speaker 1: to be fallen angels, and they inhibit the air as warriors,

724
00:42:00,405 --> 00:42:04,045
Speaker 1: and the waters and land or the subterranean, and those

725
00:42:04,085 --> 00:42:05,725
Speaker 1: are the ones they're a little bit closer to hell,

726
00:42:05,765 --> 00:42:07,925
Speaker 1: therefore a little bit more mischievous, if you know what

727
00:42:07,965 --> 00:42:11,405
Speaker 1: I mean. Oh, I know what you mean. M They're

728
00:42:11,485 --> 00:42:16,205
Speaker 1: very actually, don't doubt that, Gabby. As Niko was saying,

729
00:42:16,205 --> 00:42:19,805
Speaker 1: they're very respected because it's it's said that they have

730
00:42:19,925 --> 00:42:23,285
Speaker 1: these darts, and these darts are that can shoot you

731
00:42:23,285 --> 00:42:27,725
Speaker 1: with and they either can cause harm or luck, and

732
00:42:27,765 --> 00:42:30,725
Speaker 1: they're very protective of their lands and they were believed

733
00:42:30,725 --> 00:42:32,645
Speaker 1: to cause death to those who try and mess with

734
00:42:32,645 --> 00:42:36,605
Speaker 1: their homes or like you know, just general bad fortune.

735
00:42:37,005 --> 00:42:40,365
Speaker 1: So today is Saint Patrick's Day, as we all know.

736
00:42:41,165 --> 00:42:44,205
Speaker 1: So leprecons are actually a part of this fairy world,

737
00:42:44,445 --> 00:42:47,285
Speaker 1: and sadly they are kind of known to be the

738
00:42:47,325 --> 00:42:54,605
Speaker 1: defective fairy children. That is so offensive. It is children,

739
00:42:54,765 --> 00:42:58,605
Speaker 1: that's that's just what I read. Okay. They are the

740
00:42:58,765 --> 00:43:02,845
Speaker 1: bankers and the cobblers of the fairy world. Bankers because

741
00:43:02,845 --> 00:43:05,485
Speaker 1: of the gold, and cobblers because you know, they make sure.

742
00:43:06,485 --> 00:43:09,165
Speaker 1: And also this is also really sad fact is there

743
00:43:09,165 --> 00:43:13,045
Speaker 1: are no lady leprecons, so they cannot procreate. Maybe that's

744
00:43:13,045 --> 00:43:17,045
Speaker 1: why they're so how how how how are they here?

745
00:43:17,205 --> 00:43:21,365
Speaker 1: That's my question, because they're the defective fairy children. So

746
00:43:21,405 --> 00:43:25,085
Speaker 1: they're they're still fairies, that they just they're still fairies.

747
00:43:25,245 --> 00:43:28,165
Speaker 1: Or the Dana she they had like a birth defect

748
00:43:28,165 --> 00:43:32,845
Speaker 1: in their fairy mom's womb something like that. Yes, and

749
00:43:32,925 --> 00:43:35,925
Speaker 1: originally they were known to wear red, but somehow like

750
00:43:36,045 --> 00:43:38,565
Speaker 1: it morphed into green. But we will, we will come

751
00:43:38,565 --> 00:43:43,205
Speaker 1: back to that. So often they're depicted as grumpy. Maybe

752
00:43:43,245 --> 00:43:48,725
Speaker 1: they're sexually frustrated, who knows. Well. Anyway, so they also

753
00:43:48,885 --> 00:43:53,845
Speaker 1: have cousins called the Claricon, and they often get confused

754
00:43:53,885 --> 00:43:57,245
Speaker 1: with leprecons, which if you come across a leprecn and

755
00:43:57,285 --> 00:44:01,205
Speaker 1: you call them a clericon, they will be incredibly offended.

756
00:44:01,405 --> 00:44:04,445
Speaker 1: I literally pray that I never come across anything like this, truly.

757
00:44:04,485 --> 00:44:06,365
Speaker 1: One time I was a child, I prayed and prayed

758
00:44:06,365 --> 00:44:08,125
Speaker 1: and prayed that I would see my guardian angels. And

759
00:44:08,165 --> 00:44:10,885
Speaker 1: then when I realized that I maybe could, I literally

760
00:44:10,925 --> 00:44:12,565
Speaker 1: was like, I take it back, God. I was like

761
00:44:12,805 --> 00:44:15,765
Speaker 1: sobbing my eyes out, like clawing my eyes. I was

762
00:44:15,765 --> 00:44:18,205
Speaker 1: just like closing them so scared in a bathtub. Not

763
00:44:18,285 --> 00:44:22,765
Speaker 1: unlike Gabby right now. Yeah, Gabby is recording from the

764
00:44:22,765 --> 00:44:28,325
Speaker 1: bathtubs construction. So anyway, the Chloricon live in wine cellars

765
00:44:28,445 --> 00:44:31,565
Speaker 1: and they are known to be the drunks of the

766
00:44:32,125 --> 00:44:36,685
Speaker 1: Dana sheet. And if you leave your alcohol unattended, they'll

767
00:44:36,765 --> 00:44:40,845
Speaker 1: drink it. Oh, I don't believing it unattended. It's ten.

768
00:44:42,925 --> 00:44:45,045
Speaker 1: And if you piss them off, they'll make your food

769
00:44:45,085 --> 00:44:49,525
Speaker 1: go bad or even fight you, which could even put

770
00:44:49,525 --> 00:44:52,365
Speaker 1: you in the hospital. So apparently they're very strong too,

771
00:44:53,045 --> 00:44:55,445
Speaker 1: So for sure you don't want to piss them off. Also,

772
00:44:55,565 --> 00:44:59,045
Speaker 1: if you're like, you know, I'm tired of my alcohol

773
00:44:59,085 --> 00:45:01,485
Speaker 1: being drunk by someone else, like I'm going to go

774
00:45:01,565 --> 00:45:05,485
Speaker 1: somewhere else. Okay, So there's actually no there's no escape

775
00:45:05,485 --> 00:45:08,165
Speaker 1: aping them either if you leave, like if you move,

776
00:45:08,325 --> 00:45:10,925
Speaker 1: they'll follow. But I will say, if you have one

777
00:45:10,925 --> 00:45:12,845
Speaker 1: living in your house, then maybe that means you have

778
00:45:12,885 --> 00:45:17,325
Speaker 1: good taste in alcohol, oh, or you have a problem,

779
00:45:17,325 --> 00:45:20,045
Speaker 1: like maybe you're an alcoholic question mark. I mean, you

780
00:45:20,045 --> 00:45:22,605
Speaker 1: can alcohol in the house, like a nice alcohol in

781
00:45:22,645 --> 00:45:25,285
Speaker 1: the house, But it doesn't mean you're an alcoholic. But

782
00:45:25,445 --> 00:45:27,405
Speaker 1: it might look like it if the clericon's drinking it.

783
00:45:27,525 --> 00:45:29,605
Speaker 1: But anyway, so I think this is just another great

784
00:45:29,645 --> 00:45:34,605
Speaker 1: case for sobriety that or like a great cover up

785
00:45:34,685 --> 00:45:39,125
Speaker 1: for if you have alcoholism, be like it's the oricon. Well,

786
00:45:39,325 --> 00:45:41,925
Speaker 1: my five dollar wine and I are going to be fine.

787
00:45:42,085 --> 00:45:44,245
Speaker 1: I don't think that they're looking for the Gabby gifts

788
00:45:44,285 --> 00:45:47,685
Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, Gabby just gets me the worst wine

789
00:45:47,725 --> 00:45:52,125
Speaker 1: I do. Oh no, all right, So anyway, today it

790
00:45:52,285 --> 00:45:54,325
Speaker 1: is said that there are two hundred and thirty six

791
00:45:54,765 --> 00:45:58,645
Speaker 1: Leprecons still in Ireland today. Apparently there was a guy

792
00:45:58,685 --> 00:46:02,605
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty nine who heard screaming, went to check

793
00:46:02,605 --> 00:46:05,045
Speaker 1: it out and there was like this burned spot on

794
00:46:05,085 --> 00:46:07,765
Speaker 1: the ground own and that's where he found this like

795
00:46:07,885 --> 00:46:13,365
Speaker 1: little hat, jacket, pants and four coins. And so now

796
00:46:13,405 --> 00:46:16,205
Speaker 1: it is assumed that this there's this like naked lepricon

797
00:46:16,365 --> 00:46:20,085
Speaker 1: running around which people have been searching for. There's been

798
00:46:20,125 --> 00:46:23,285
Speaker 1: like an increased number of locals and tourists in the area,

799
00:46:23,485 --> 00:46:26,165
Speaker 1: which is part of the reason why they were protecting

800
00:46:26,365 --> 00:46:29,405
Speaker 1: these dana she is because they were basically just being

801
00:46:29,445 --> 00:46:33,405
Speaker 1: pestered by locals trying to find them or tourists as well.

802
00:46:34,045 --> 00:46:37,885
Speaker 1: So there you have it. Lepricons. Don't get them confused

803
00:46:37,885 --> 00:46:40,725
Speaker 1: with claricons. They are a part of the fairy family,

804
00:46:40,885 --> 00:46:44,885
Speaker 1: but please call them the danash she instead. Who is

805
00:46:45,845 --> 00:46:48,565
Speaker 1: doing the census for the Leprecons, like two hundred and

806
00:46:48,605 --> 00:46:50,485
Speaker 1: thirty six is such a specific number. I just wonder

807
00:46:50,485 --> 00:46:54,765
Speaker 1: how we came up with that. Yeah, I don't know, Okay,

808
00:46:55,885 --> 00:46:57,885
Speaker 1: I'm going to go with it has to do with

809
00:46:58,045 --> 00:47:00,725
Speaker 1: like as you were talking about earlier, these like these

810
00:47:00,765 --> 00:47:04,085
Speaker 1: areas that have been protected and like reported on it.

811
00:47:04,165 --> 00:47:07,485
Speaker 1: I don't I think that they're a more mean, They're

812
00:47:07,525 --> 00:47:11,325
Speaker 1: probably not immortal. I don't know, they probably got different lifespans.

813
00:47:11,365 --> 00:47:18,285
Speaker 1: You know, they're unique creatures and a totally real you

814
00:47:18,325 --> 00:47:23,045
Speaker 1: know exactly, So what a creature episode? I know I

815
00:47:23,045 --> 00:47:24,485
Speaker 1: was want to say, I'm not really sure what we

816
00:47:24,925 --> 00:47:27,725
Speaker 1: what we learned in this episode. You know, the ocean

817
00:47:27,765 --> 00:47:30,645
Speaker 1: is scary, you can get eaten by a shark and

818
00:47:31,165 --> 00:47:39,605
Speaker 1: actually just be respectful of all people other people's territories

819
00:47:39,685 --> 00:47:47,765
Speaker 1: like shark territory or yeah, shark territory, Danish territory. You

820
00:47:47,845 --> 00:47:51,805
Speaker 1: know what am I trying to say? I don't know. Yeah,

821
00:47:51,965 --> 00:47:57,125
Speaker 1: maybe like don't steal land from people, but don't be

822
00:47:57,125 --> 00:48:03,365
Speaker 1: an asshole. Don't be an asshole. Sending this to um,

823
00:48:03,965 --> 00:48:08,285
Speaker 1: who's that kuiny that colonized every Christopher Columbus the alleged

824
00:48:08,565 --> 00:48:13,765
Speaker 1: guy allegedly allegedly Yeah, also just like, don't go in

825
00:48:13,805 --> 00:48:16,845
Speaker 1: the ocean and don't go to Ireland. You can go

826
00:48:16,885 --> 00:48:19,925
Speaker 1: to Ireland, just be really respectful and don't go looking

827
00:48:20,085 --> 00:48:25,365
Speaker 1: for the Dana she because you know they have feelings too. Yeah,

828
00:48:25,405 --> 00:48:29,285
Speaker 1: they'll come to you. Their people will call your people. Yeah, great, exactly. Well,

829
00:48:29,445 --> 00:48:32,885
