And also we're going 10 00:00:42,885 --> 00:00:45,085 Speaker 1: to Nika is going to tell us about a man 11 00:00:45,525 --> 00:00:49,005 Speaker 1: who was a little bit too obsessed with a woman 12 00:00:49,285 --> 00:00:53,685 Speaker 1: and it got really messed up. So we're gonna have 13 00:00:53,725 --> 00:00:59,685 Speaker 1: some fun, right, guys, It's gonna be na so fun.

Mystery could be very triggering. Some 16 00:01:13,765 --> 00:01:23,525 Speaker 1: people want concrete answers, mini closure, also h scary supernatural monsters, 17 00:01:23,765 --> 00:01:29,165 Speaker 1: question mark. So those aren't really trigger warnings. Sound very triggering, 18 00:01:29,445 --> 00:01:32,205 Speaker 1: but okay, Hey, that's the thing about triggers, You don't 19 00:01:32,285 --> 00:01:35,725 Speaker 1: they are so specific to people. Okay, I can't. That's true. 20 00:01:35,805 --> 00:01:39,925 Speaker 1: That's true. Also, as always three women talking, there is 21 00:01:39,965 --> 00:01:44,845 Speaker 1: a trigger. That's always a trigger. Someone out there's very 22 00:01:44,885 --> 00:02:03,645 Speaker 1: triggered right now. Alright, Q alligator music. So here we 23 00:02:03,725 --> 00:02:08,685 Speaker 1: are the Cadaver Gang, ready to talk about some mysteries. 24 00:02:08,685 --> 00:02:11,405 Speaker 1: This is where the mystery trigger warning comes in, so 25 00:02:12,445 --> 00:02:16,645 Speaker 1: right into it. We're jumping right into the mystery. All right, Taylor, 26 00:02:17,405 --> 00:02:21,765 Speaker 1: take it away. Okay, We're going to hop into our 27 00:02:21,805 --> 00:02:30,445 Speaker 1: imagination airplane. Imagination airplane, yeah, okay, because we can't get 28 00:02:30,445 --> 00:02:33,005 Speaker 1: in a real airplane right now. We're going to Russia 29 00:02:33,245 --> 00:02:35,965 Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty nine, or I guess the Soviet Union 30 00:02:36,205 --> 00:02:39,645 Speaker 1: as it was at the time, and specifically the Ural 31 00:02:39,765 --> 00:02:44,325 Speaker 1: Mountain Range. It's about sixteen hundred miles long, ninety three 32 00:02:44,365 --> 00:02:48,525 Speaker 1: miles wide, and elevations over six thousand feet, so not 33 00:02:48,645 --> 00:02:52,565 Speaker 1: super big, but you know it's it's it's a big 34 00:02:52,605 --> 00:02:54,805 Speaker 1: it's a big daddy. I would say, wait, how is 35 00:02:54,845 --> 00:02:57,245 Speaker 1: that a lot big? I don't know, well, because I 36 00:02:57,285 --> 00:03:00,245 Speaker 1: looked up the largest and it was like millions of 37 00:03:00,285 --> 00:03:02,885 Speaker 1: miles or something, and I was like, okay, that's a lot. 38 00:03:02,965 --> 00:03:05,765 Speaker 1: Could it be millions of miles? I know that was 39 00:03:05,805 --> 00:03:08,925 Speaker 1: a little bit dramatic, but it was a lot. No, 40 00:03:09,085 --> 00:03:13,005 Speaker 1: not high though, you mean like a cross, yes, okay, yeah, 41 00:03:13,005 --> 00:03:16,925 Speaker 1: a million miles high would be a space. Right, Good 42 00:03:17,085 --> 00:03:21,685 Speaker 1: morning everyone. That was great, Gabby Listener, Just so you know, 43 00:03:21,765 --> 00:03:25,925 Speaker 1: we're recording earlier for scheduling purposes, and I am half 44 00:03:25,965 --> 00:03:30,365 Speaker 1: dead and Gabby clearly has very smart journalistic questions and ideas. 45 00:03:30,965 --> 00:03:34,285 Speaker 1: I always do. This will be unique. You're you're getting 46 00:03:34,285 --> 00:03:38,125 Speaker 1: a whole different version of us. Okay. Oh yeah. So 47 00:03:38,725 --> 00:03:42,885 Speaker 1: obviously the adventurous types they like to go skiing, hiking, 48 00:03:43,525 --> 00:03:46,645 Speaker 1: and that's what these nine college students did in January 49 00:03:46,645 --> 00:03:51,165 Speaker 1: of nineteen fifty nine. I didn't do that shit in college. No, 50 00:03:51,325 --> 00:03:53,365 Speaker 1: I know. That's what I'm saying. The adventurous type. So 51 00:03:53,525 --> 00:03:56,765 Speaker 1: you're not adventurous then, and neither am I, which is fine, 52 00:03:57,125 --> 00:04:00,805 Speaker 1: is it? Yeah? Okay? Great? Everyone on Tinder are like, 53 00:04:00,885 --> 00:04:03,645 Speaker 1: I'm adventurous, but are you? Would you go to that 54 00:04:03,725 --> 00:04:06,525 Speaker 1: mountain range? Take adventure off your Tinder bio if you 55 00:04:06,525 --> 00:04:09,325 Speaker 1: wouldn't go to that mountain range and die? Also, everyone 56 00:04:09,405 --> 00:04:11,285 Speaker 1: who wants to go on adventures there are always like 57 00:04:11,325 --> 00:04:14,405 Speaker 1: adventures and I love dogs and I love breweries. I'm like, 58 00:04:14,445 --> 00:04:17,405 Speaker 1: this was the last thirty five profile. So you are 59 00:04:17,605 --> 00:04:21,605 Speaker 1: you don't like adventure, you're boring anyway, Okay, I like 60 00:04:21,645 --> 00:04:26,765 Speaker 1: those things, but it's fine, Okay. Adventure for them is 61 00:04:26,805 --> 00:04:28,765 Speaker 1: like fighting off COVID by going to a brewery on 62 00:04:28,805 --> 00:04:32,245 Speaker 1: a weekend anyway, Okay, So, which we did, by the way, 63 00:04:32,245 --> 00:04:36,005 Speaker 1: a listener, we did that last week. Okay. All right, 64 00:04:36,125 --> 00:04:38,685 Speaker 1: let's let's reel it back in. Okay, we're back in 65 00:04:38,845 --> 00:04:42,285 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union nineteen fifty nine. All of these people 66 00:04:42,365 --> 00:04:45,325 Speaker 1: were They were regular hikers and skiers. It was their 67 00:04:45,325 --> 00:04:48,365 Speaker 1: winter break at school, so they made a plan to 68 00:04:48,565 --> 00:04:51,645 Speaker 1: ski two hundred miles over the course of sixteen days, 69 00:04:52,005 --> 00:04:55,765 Speaker 1: which that seems like a lot of miles. Wait, over 70 00:04:55,805 --> 00:04:59,045 Speaker 1: sixteen days, that seems like a lot to me. I 71 00:04:59,085 --> 00:05:02,565 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that's a normal amount because based 72 00:05:02,605 --> 00:05:05,685 Speaker 1: on how I imagine like in Middle Earth and are 73 00:05:05,805 --> 00:05:08,125 Speaker 1: the rings, I think they're doing like twenty miles a 74 00:05:08,205 --> 00:05:10,005 Speaker 1: day when they're trying to get to more door or 75 00:05:10,005 --> 00:05:12,725 Speaker 1: something like that. So I think twenty that's about like 76 00:05:13,325 --> 00:05:15,405 Speaker 1: a little bit more than twenty miles a day. But 77 00:05:15,445 --> 00:05:18,405 Speaker 1: it's on ski, so you'd be faster than walking across 78 00:05:18,525 --> 00:05:22,885 Speaker 1: gone door and Middle Earth two hundred divided by sixteen 79 00:05:23,165 --> 00:05:26,885 Speaker 1: is twelve and a half. Oh well, that seems so easy. 80 00:05:27,085 --> 00:05:30,205 Speaker 1: That actually doesn't seem that bad. Okay, anyways, math Honestly, 81 00:05:30,245 --> 00:05:34,725 Speaker 1: they should have challenged themselves. Okay, we'll get to some 82 00:05:34,845 --> 00:05:38,045 Speaker 1: challenges here in a minute. Honestly, though, nothing sounds worse 83 00:05:38,085 --> 00:05:41,845 Speaker 1: to me than camping and snow. Yeah, that sounds bad. 84 00:05:41,925 --> 00:05:45,045 Speaker 1: Like camping is one thing, but camping and snow. But 85 00:05:45,605 --> 00:05:49,965 Speaker 1: sixteen days, that's too many. Anyways. So in January twenty eighth, 86 00:05:50,005 --> 00:05:53,325 Speaker 1: one of the hikers cut the trip a little bit short. 87 00:05:53,365 --> 00:05:55,565 Speaker 1: He had like some knee and joint pain, so he 88 00:05:55,725 --> 00:05:59,405 Speaker 1: like he left, and the leader of the group told 89 00:05:59,405 --> 00:06:01,565 Speaker 1: the guy who left early. He was like, hey, we'll 90 00:06:01,645 --> 00:06:04,045 Speaker 1: let you know when we get back. We back around 91 00:06:04,085 --> 00:06:06,925 Speaker 1: the twelfth of February, we'll hit you up. Let you 92 00:06:06,965 --> 00:06:09,365 Speaker 1: know how it goes. Go to that brewery, you know, 93 00:06:09,445 --> 00:06:13,845 Speaker 1: have a grand time. So the twentieth of February rules around, 94 00:06:13,965 --> 00:06:17,285 Speaker 1: and no one has heard from anyone in the group, 95 00:06:18,365 --> 00:06:21,525 Speaker 1: so friends and family are worried. Search party goes out 96 00:06:21,965 --> 00:06:25,405 Speaker 1: when to go find them, The Army gets involved, planes 97 00:06:25,525 --> 00:06:30,485 Speaker 1: helicopter searching the area. So in February twenty sixth. The 98 00:06:31,005 --> 00:06:38,045 Speaker 1: searchers find their campsite, and the campsite was hella sketchy looking. 99 00:06:38,685 --> 00:06:41,605 Speaker 1: They had their all nine boots were lined up against 100 00:06:41,605 --> 00:06:44,885 Speaker 1: a wall, and then they found their tent with all 101 00:06:44,885 --> 00:06:51,325 Speaker 1: of their belongings inside, like food, clothes, everything, and the 102 00:06:51,365 --> 00:06:54,925 Speaker 1: tent was ripped open or slashed open from the inside. 103 00:06:55,405 --> 00:06:58,005 Speaker 1: And then nine sets of footprints running away from the 104 00:06:58,005 --> 00:07:01,285 Speaker 1: tent like they were trying to escape from something. And 105 00:07:01,325 --> 00:07:05,285 Speaker 1: then bonus, all of these footprints were either barefoot or 106 00:07:05,605 --> 00:07:08,205 Speaker 1: had socks on, and there was like one boot footprint 107 00:07:08,485 --> 00:07:12,605 Speaker 1: and it is like between negative forty degrees fahrenheit and 108 00:07:12,645 --> 00:07:16,285 Speaker 1: negative sixty degrees fanheight. It is very cold. So you 109 00:07:16,325 --> 00:07:20,565 Speaker 1: give you that is so cold? Yeah, And they obviously 110 00:07:20,725 --> 00:07:24,685 Speaker 1: they knew this, their experienced hikers. They know that you 111 00:07:24,685 --> 00:07:26,565 Speaker 1: can't just be running around in the snow. So like 112 00:07:26,685 --> 00:07:31,405 Speaker 1: something happened, Well what happened, Taylor? Is it a bear? 113 00:07:31,925 --> 00:07:35,365 Speaker 1: Is a bear? That was my first thought? A bear 114 00:07:35,525 --> 00:07:39,565 Speaker 1: got them? Who It's possible, Okay, So the investigators follow 115 00:07:39,645 --> 00:07:42,245 Speaker 1: the footprints, which leads them to some woods and then 116 00:07:42,285 --> 00:07:45,405 Speaker 1: the tracks disappear dunt dunt, dunt, or they were just 117 00:07:45,405 --> 00:07:47,605 Speaker 1: covered up with snow, which is very possible. This is 118 00:07:47,645 --> 00:07:50,885 Speaker 1: also like Lord of the Rings where Aragorn sees Marion 119 00:07:50,965 --> 00:07:55,205 Speaker 1: Pippins footprints in the two towers and he tracks them 120 00:07:55,205 --> 00:07:58,805 Speaker 1: into the woods. Okay, great, so morning Gabby basically is 121 00:07:58,885 --> 00:08:01,885 Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings references. That is so good to know. Yeah, 122 00:08:02,045 --> 00:08:05,005 Speaker 1: I don't think that's just morning time. Yeah, I mean 123 00:08:05,045 --> 00:08:06,965 Speaker 1: I've never or hard gob We talked so much about 124 00:08:06,965 --> 00:08:08,565 Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings in one episode. But keep going. 125 00:08:08,565 --> 00:08:11,445 Speaker 1: I actually really like it. Okay, I actually like what 126 00:08:11,485 --> 00:08:14,845 Speaker 1: you're doing this time. It's fine, Okay, yeah, this time. 127 00:08:15,245 --> 00:08:18,925 Speaker 1: So eventually the searchers they find the first two bodies, 128 00:08:19,485 --> 00:08:23,845 Speaker 1: and they are found near some fire remains. These bodies 129 00:08:23,885 --> 00:08:27,965 Speaker 1: were barefoot and they were only wearing like long underwear, 130 00:08:28,245 --> 00:08:31,085 Speaker 1: so they were like they didn't have shirts on. They 131 00:08:31,125 --> 00:08:35,045 Speaker 1: were practically naked in the cold, but they were by 132 00:08:35,165 --> 00:08:37,005 Speaker 1: what looked like a campfire. They had made a fire 133 00:08:37,045 --> 00:08:39,525 Speaker 1: to try and stay warm. They were also like some 134 00:08:39,645 --> 00:08:42,965 Speaker 1: branches that were like kind of cut down. It looks 135 00:08:42,965 --> 00:08:44,765 Speaker 1: like somebody like tried to climb a tree to like 136 00:08:44,925 --> 00:08:47,445 Speaker 1: see like try to find a way out or something. 137 00:08:47,725 --> 00:08:50,325 Speaker 1: We don't know because we're not them. And then later 138 00:08:50,645 --> 00:08:53,245 Speaker 1: three more bodies are found, and they assumed that they 139 00:08:53,245 --> 00:08:55,245 Speaker 1: were heading back to the tent. They were like kind 140 00:08:55,245 --> 00:08:58,085 Speaker 1: of like on their way back. And then the last 141 00:08:58,085 --> 00:09:02,005 Speaker 1: four hikers were not found for another two months because 142 00:09:02,045 --> 00:09:04,845 Speaker 1: they had been covered up by snow. They were more 143 00:09:04,885 --> 00:09:10,245 Speaker 1: adequately dressed though they like perhaps they they found they 144 00:09:10,245 --> 00:09:11,965 Speaker 1: took some of the clothes from like the other body, 145 00:09:12,005 --> 00:09:15,045 Speaker 1: like their friends or whatever, so maybe that's why they 146 00:09:15,045 --> 00:09:19,165 Speaker 1: were naked or something. I don't know, that's bleak. Yeah, 147 00:09:19,285 --> 00:09:22,525 Speaker 1: So now we have all of the bodies, so an 148 00:09:22,525 --> 00:09:27,485 Speaker 1: investigation in autopsies take place. So it's found that six 149 00:09:27,565 --> 00:09:31,605 Speaker 1: of them died from hypothermia, which makes sense it was 150 00:09:31,805 --> 00:09:36,805 Speaker 1: very cold, one died from chess trauma, which caused internal bleeding, 151 00:09:37,565 --> 00:09:41,765 Speaker 1: one had like a partially crushed skull, and the last 152 00:09:41,805 --> 00:09:44,805 Speaker 1: one had chess trauma. And I don't know like which 153 00:09:44,845 --> 00:09:47,725 Speaker 1: one of which, but like one of them was missing 154 00:09:47,765 --> 00:09:50,565 Speaker 1: a tongue and one of them was missing their eyes. 155 00:09:50,805 --> 00:09:54,125 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, a bear like wouldn't just go for the 156 00:09:54,165 --> 00:09:57,565 Speaker 1: tongue in the eyes, right, Like they're not picky like that. 157 00:09:57,765 --> 00:10:01,725 Speaker 1: So Nika hasn't Nika's theory she crushed. It's gone. She 158 00:10:01,885 --> 00:10:06,765 Speaker 1: no longer thinks it was a yeah. And then also 159 00:10:06,845 --> 00:10:09,805 Speaker 1: during the autopsy they found traces of radiation on all 160 00:10:09,845 --> 00:10:14,405 Speaker 1: of the hikers. And remember we're in Russia, so this 161 00:10:14,485 --> 00:10:18,005 Speaker 1: is like all very sus. This is US as hell. Yeah, 162 00:10:18,045 --> 00:10:20,485 Speaker 1: it's s us because we're in Russia. It's well, it's 163 00:10:20,605 --> 00:10:24,525 Speaker 1: US in general, but it's even susser because you know Russia. 164 00:10:24,685 --> 00:10:28,485 Speaker 1: So we had uh Stalin was doing his thing. Which, 165 00:10:28,525 --> 00:10:30,805 Speaker 1: by the way, have you ever seen a picture of 166 00:10:30,845 --> 00:10:34,365 Speaker 1: Stalin when he was younger? Was he fine? Swear if 167 00:10:34,365 --> 00:10:39,405 Speaker 1: you tell me what he was? Hot? So cute? No? Yeah, sorry, 168 00:10:39,485 --> 00:10:41,845 Speaker 1: I know it's bad, it's bad. Was he more of 169 00:10:41,925 --> 00:10:46,165 Speaker 1: like a Sam Wise Gamgee cute or like a Frodo 170 00:10:46,325 --> 00:10:49,485 Speaker 1: Baggin's cute, like kind of an Edgier cute. I've never 171 00:10:49,565 --> 00:10:54,365 Speaker 1: read or seen Lord of the Rings. Sorry, even I have, 172 00:10:55,005 --> 00:11:00,005 Speaker 1: even Nika has, but that's just because a boy. I 173 00:11:00,085 --> 00:11:01,885 Speaker 1: never actually sat down and said I want to watch 174 00:11:01,925 --> 00:11:04,725 Speaker 1: all of these by myself, right, so me neither. I've 175 00:11:04,765 --> 00:11:09,965 Speaker 1: never said that yesterday. Yeah, no, I've never seen this, 176 00:11:10,005 --> 00:11:11,885 Speaker 1: so I can't make that reference. But he was like 177 00:11:12,245 --> 00:11:19,405 Speaker 1: hipster cute. Okay, so probably like Frodo Baggins. Okay, dictate me. Daddy. Okay, okay, okay. 178 00:11:19,445 --> 00:11:24,045 Speaker 1: So the hikers had actually they had documented their whole trip, 179 00:11:24,125 --> 00:11:26,125 Speaker 1: which was nice because they were at least able to 180 00:11:26,125 --> 00:11:28,845 Speaker 1: put together like what happened up until that event, and 181 00:11:29,165 --> 00:11:34,885 Speaker 1: everything seemed to be going dandy. But then obviously something 182 00:11:34,925 --> 00:11:39,245 Speaker 1: happened slashed the tin open, leaving all their stuff. So 183 00:11:39,285 --> 00:11:44,085 Speaker 1: the investigation happens. In the investigation, they say that they 184 00:11:44,125 --> 00:11:47,445 Speaker 1: all died from an elemental force that the tourists were 185 00:11:47,605 --> 00:11:52,525 Speaker 1: unable to overcome. And the case file is classified. They're 186 00:11:52,565 --> 00:11:55,645 Speaker 1: like super top secret, don't look into it. They just 187 00:11:55,845 --> 00:11:58,125 Speaker 1: something happened and they weren't able to survive it. Like 188 00:11:58,165 --> 00:12:01,485 Speaker 1: that's literally what they said. Totally normal, totally normal, elemental force, 189 00:12:01,965 --> 00:12:04,325 Speaker 1: elemental force, don't you worry. Yeah, I feel like that 190 00:12:04,405 --> 00:12:09,085 Speaker 1: could describe any death an elemental force happened. Yeah. Literally. 191 00:12:10,205 --> 00:12:13,565 Speaker 1: So this led to all kinds of rumors and conspiracies, 192 00:12:14,045 --> 00:12:18,325 Speaker 1: which is my favorite part. Oh and also well a 193 00:12:18,405 --> 00:12:20,685 Speaker 1: zoom my research. One of the articles that I read 194 00:12:20,765 --> 00:12:24,805 Speaker 1: was kind of talking about how conspiracies come about, and 195 00:12:24,965 --> 00:12:28,525 Speaker 1: like in the US, it's you know, your average schmow 196 00:12:28,885 --> 00:12:32,645 Speaker 1: watching the news or whatever, and he's like, well, well, hell, 197 00:12:32,685 --> 00:12:34,685 Speaker 1: you know and then just like make something random up. 198 00:12:37,205 --> 00:12:40,485 Speaker 1: Oh hell, I'm pretty sure that's what they do for us, Like, 199 00:12:40,485 --> 00:12:43,445 Speaker 1: oh well, this is too weird. It must have been whatever. 200 00:12:43,485 --> 00:12:45,565 Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't even think of a conspiracy 201 00:12:45,645 --> 00:12:51,445 Speaker 1: right now. Oh hell, these politicians must be lizard people exactly. 202 00:12:52,645 --> 00:12:55,045 Speaker 1: I don't know how you make that connection, but people do. 203 00:12:55,165 --> 00:12:58,725 Speaker 1: They do somehow, somehow, someway. I don't know. But in 204 00:12:59,005 --> 00:13:02,845 Speaker 1: Russia with the Soviet Union, rumors start at the top, 205 00:13:03,005 --> 00:13:05,285 Speaker 1: like start at the government and they suggest them to 206 00:13:05,285 --> 00:13:08,565 Speaker 1: the people, which is really strange to me. That's cute, Okay, 207 00:13:08,605 --> 00:13:11,925 Speaker 1: this is my favorite. So in nineteen ninety, the former 208 00:13:11,925 --> 00:13:15,325 Speaker 1: Communist party leader that was like near of like the 209 00:13:15,365 --> 00:13:19,565 Speaker 1: town that was nearby told newspapers, like an article went 210 00:13:19,605 --> 00:13:21,765 Speaker 1: out and then he like responded to it saying that 211 00:13:21,805 --> 00:13:25,445 Speaker 1: there was a possible UFO and he said that balls 212 00:13:25,485 --> 00:13:29,165 Speaker 1: of fire were seen in the area. It turns out, like, 213 00:13:29,245 --> 00:13:31,925 Speaker 1: how does his accents like that? Because I think everyone 214 00:13:32,005 --> 00:13:34,685 Speaker 1: with a conspiracy theory has this like southern accent. I 215 00:13:34,725 --> 00:13:38,045 Speaker 1: guess I don't know even if they're Russian, right exactly, 216 00:13:38,045 --> 00:13:40,565 Speaker 1: there are balls of fire in Russia. This is how 217 00:13:40,605 --> 00:13:44,485 Speaker 1: we talk down there. Surely they have like a southern 218 00:13:44,525 --> 00:13:49,925 Speaker 1: strange accent, right like in their own version. Yeah, does 219 00:13:50,085 --> 00:13:54,005 Speaker 1: have accents within their language anyway, and that's the one 220 00:13:54,045 --> 00:13:58,245 Speaker 1: that is accurate to where this is. Yeah. So he 221 00:13:58,365 --> 00:14:00,845 Speaker 1: said that balls of fire were seen in the area, 222 00:14:00,845 --> 00:14:04,405 Speaker 1: but it turns out that was from some missile tests 223 00:14:04,445 --> 00:14:08,165 Speaker 1: that happened after the event. So they're like, whatever, that's 224 00:14:08,205 --> 00:14:10,125 Speaker 1: not a thing. But the same guy also said that 225 00:14:10,125 --> 00:14:13,685 Speaker 1: it could be indigenous people or radiation from weapon test. 226 00:14:14,685 --> 00:14:17,925 Speaker 1: But then this dude actually was like, I'm thinking it 227 00:14:18,085 --> 00:14:21,005 Speaker 1: was quote a heat ray or strong energy that is 228 00:14:21,085 --> 00:14:28,485 Speaker 1: unknown to us. So this dude, he's like, hun aliens helpful. 229 00:14:28,885 --> 00:14:32,365 Speaker 1: So this one dude, he's like a politician or was 230 00:14:32,405 --> 00:14:36,005 Speaker 1: a politician. He was like, definitely aliens UFOs that happened. 231 00:14:36,765 --> 00:14:40,005 Speaker 1: Others are like, m it was definitely the abominal snowman 232 00:14:40,205 --> 00:14:43,565 Speaker 1: and he took him out, took out everyone whatever freaked 233 00:14:43,605 --> 00:14:48,325 Speaker 1: them out, makes sense. Others are like, no, it's arctic dwarves, 234 00:14:48,365 --> 00:14:50,885 Speaker 1: which I just like didn't even have time to go 235 00:14:50,925 --> 00:14:52,725 Speaker 1: down that rabbit hole. I was like, what is an 236 00:14:52,925 --> 00:14:56,885 Speaker 1: Arctic dwarf? I don't know. I did like one Google 237 00:14:56,885 --> 00:14:59,165 Speaker 1: and I was like this is too much, can't handle 238 00:14:59,165 --> 00:15:03,925 Speaker 1: it right now. And then others are like, oh, they 239 00:15:03,925 --> 00:15:06,285 Speaker 1: saw something that they shouldn't have of and it was 240 00:15:06,325 --> 00:15:09,045 Speaker 1: like some KGB action or something, and a lot of 241 00:15:09,085 --> 00:15:12,885 Speaker 1: people are like the government and the military definitely involved. Yeah, 242 00:15:12,965 --> 00:15:16,445 Speaker 1: because like every single theory that we've said so far 243 00:15:17,605 --> 00:15:21,165 Speaker 1: is like fantasy. So I'm like, where are the legit 244 00:15:21,285 --> 00:15:24,845 Speaker 1: where are the legit conspiracy theories? If there is a 245 00:15:24,925 --> 00:15:27,605 Speaker 1: legit conspiracy theory, don't you worry. Let's fast forward to 246 00:15:27,645 --> 00:15:33,525 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Literally no, no, twenty was terrible, but they 247 00:15:33,565 --> 00:15:35,405 Speaker 1: were like, we need to figure this out. This is 248 00:15:35,525 --> 00:15:38,205 Speaker 1: this is the time, we're in quarantine. We got to 249 00:15:38,245 --> 00:15:41,045 Speaker 1: solve this and let's be real this time. Let's none 250 00:15:41,085 --> 00:15:44,885 Speaker 1: of this UFO, none of this bigfoot Arctic dwarfs. These 251 00:15:45,005 --> 00:15:49,725 Speaker 1: Arctic dwarves like whatever with a tongue fetish. So anyway, 252 00:15:49,765 --> 00:15:53,725 Speaker 1: so last year, American and Russian scientists say that severe 253 00:15:53,765 --> 00:15:58,565 Speaker 1: winds came in through the mountains, creating a vortex or wait, 254 00:15:58,565 --> 00:16:01,805 Speaker 1: this is one possibility, created a vortex which produced a 255 00:16:01,885 --> 00:16:06,605 Speaker 1: low frequency sound that vibrated in their ear, causing nausea 256 00:16:06,725 --> 00:16:10,845 Speaker 1: and psychological discomfort, which could explain them fleeing the tent, 257 00:16:12,045 --> 00:16:16,445 Speaker 1: right possible, Sure, why not? But then kind of like 258 00:16:16,525 --> 00:16:19,245 Speaker 1: the latest and greatest theory is that there was a 259 00:16:19,285 --> 00:16:22,445 Speaker 1: really small avalanche that came in, causing the group to 260 00:16:22,525 --> 00:16:27,325 Speaker 1: panic leave their tent, got lost and succumbed to the elements. Now, 261 00:16:27,405 --> 00:16:31,005 Speaker 1: this would explain injuries of like falling debris the snow. 262 00:16:31,045 --> 00:16:34,285 Speaker 1: They were saying that the snow was super heavy. You know, 263 00:16:34,325 --> 00:16:37,205 Speaker 1: they're saying that that's probably the most likely. There wasn't 264 00:16:37,245 --> 00:16:39,765 Speaker 1: a lot of evidence of an avalanche, but they're saying 265 00:16:39,805 --> 00:16:41,765 Speaker 1: that it could just be like super small and it 266 00:16:41,845 --> 00:16:45,325 Speaker 1: just like freaked them out. But not everyone's convinced, as 267 00:16:45,365 --> 00:16:47,845 Speaker 1: you can imagine, you know, a lot of people are 268 00:16:47,885 --> 00:16:51,205 Speaker 1: saying that the that it wasn't steep enough for an 269 00:16:51,205 --> 00:16:53,845 Speaker 1: avalanche like that to happen. And they also were saying, 270 00:16:53,885 --> 00:16:56,565 Speaker 1: like nose, these hikers were smart enough they would know 271 00:16:56,645 --> 00:16:58,925 Speaker 1: not to build a camp at the bottom of like 272 00:16:59,005 --> 00:17:03,965 Speaker 1: where an avalanche could happen. So basically, we may never 273 00:17:04,085 --> 00:17:07,925 Speaker 1: know for sure, but likely scenario. The most likely scenario 274 00:17:08,205 --> 00:17:14,645 Speaker 1: is an avalanche. Personally, I think that maybe dars Arctic dwarves, 275 00:17:14,685 --> 00:17:18,605 Speaker 1: but I'm actually thinking UFO. But maybe it was these 276 00:17:18,645 --> 00:17:22,565 Speaker 1: aliens that were also they could have looked like the 277 00:17:22,645 --> 00:17:26,285 Speaker 1: Arctic dwarf. Yeah, the avalanche thing just like doesn't track 278 00:17:26,365 --> 00:17:29,205 Speaker 1: because like if what they're saying is, oh they panic that, 279 00:17:29,285 --> 00:17:31,605 Speaker 1: it's like okay, I too, gauge my eyes out like 280 00:17:31,645 --> 00:17:36,125 Speaker 1: when I panic, like what, So that that could actually 281 00:17:36,325 --> 00:17:39,805 Speaker 1: be relatively easy, easily explained by like me, tell me 282 00:17:40,005 --> 00:17:42,685 Speaker 1: by like decompos Well, there's not a lot of decomposition 283 00:17:42,725 --> 00:17:46,805 Speaker 1: going on because it's cold, right, but you know animals, birds, 284 00:17:47,205 --> 00:17:50,325 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. You think that it happened after 285 00:17:50,685 --> 00:17:55,725 Speaker 1: he or she died. Oh, okay, that's tongue. The tongue 286 00:17:56,365 --> 00:18:00,525 Speaker 1: maybe a greedy crow, I don't know crow that an 287 00:18:00,605 --> 00:18:05,885 Speaker 1: arctic crow dwarf got the eyes. So oh, it just 288 00:18:05,885 --> 00:18:08,365 Speaker 1: gets worse. But the ones who were covered in snow, 289 00:18:08,645 --> 00:18:12,045 Speaker 1: I guess it wasn't enough snow to be like an avalanche. 290 00:18:12,045 --> 00:18:15,045 Speaker 1: And also they could see their footprints, So that suspicious 291 00:18:15,045 --> 00:18:17,525 Speaker 1: because if they could follow their footprints, why weren't the 292 00:18:17,565 --> 00:18:20,725 Speaker 1: hikers able to just like follow their footprints back. So 293 00:18:20,925 --> 00:18:23,405 Speaker 1: one of the theories is so the ones that were 294 00:18:23,405 --> 00:18:26,045 Speaker 1: covered up by snow that that was the avalanche, right, 295 00:18:26,085 --> 00:18:28,845 Speaker 1: and it covered them up. The people in the tent 296 00:18:29,365 --> 00:18:32,965 Speaker 1: hear this or whatever, though you would think that that 297 00:18:33,285 --> 00:18:36,565 Speaker 1: they would still put on maybe some clothes or their 298 00:18:36,605 --> 00:18:40,965 Speaker 1: boots at least and probably go out the exit of 299 00:18:41,045 --> 00:18:44,645 Speaker 1: the tent rather than slash slash it. Yeah like Liam 300 00:18:44,725 --> 00:18:48,365 Speaker 1: Neeson movie. But so they were saying that maybe they 301 00:18:48,405 --> 00:18:50,725 Speaker 1: were such close friends that they would you know, definitely 302 00:18:50,805 --> 00:18:52,605 Speaker 1: go and try and rescue them. So they were saying 303 00:18:52,605 --> 00:18:54,525 Speaker 1: that maybe that's what they were trying to do. And 304 00:18:54,565 --> 00:18:57,125 Speaker 1: so the avalanche came and came and they couldn't find them, 305 00:18:57,245 --> 00:19:00,245 Speaker 1: and then so they could only follow their footprints, so 306 00:19:00,285 --> 00:19:03,565 Speaker 1: it was like not over their tent necessarily, but it 307 00:19:03,645 --> 00:19:06,445 Speaker 1: was you know, it got to those other people in 308 00:19:06,445 --> 00:19:08,805 Speaker 1: which they had more clothes on. So that also makes 309 00:19:08,845 --> 00:19:12,485 Speaker 1: sense that they may have been out and prepared or something. 310 00:19:12,765 --> 00:19:15,925 Speaker 1: M there you go. There's another story of mine where 311 00:19:15,965 --> 00:19:20,725 Speaker 1: we don't know really done, done done. Okay those stories, Taylor, 312 00:19:20,805 --> 00:19:24,885 Speaker 1: I do. I love a good mystery, so trigger warning mystery. 313 00:19:25,885 --> 00:19:28,765 Speaker 1: And you know your hopes and dreams of having a 314 00:19:28,845 --> 00:19:31,845 Speaker 1: nice conclusion are you know, you don't get those. You 315 00:19:31,845 --> 00:19:33,925 Speaker 1: don't get to have your dreams come true. So sorry, 316 00:19:34,165 --> 00:19:35,685 Speaker 1: I think you can pick which one you like the 317 00:19:35,725 --> 00:19:42,925 Speaker 1: best though, Yeah, history which makes one do you like best? Oh? 318 00:19:44,485 --> 00:19:49,605 Speaker 1: Okay in this scenario, Well, Taylor, thank you for leaving 319 00:19:49,685 --> 00:19:52,605 Speaker 1: us hanging and you know, putting that not in our 320 00:19:52,645 --> 00:19:54,405 Speaker 1: stomach where we're like, oh, I just want to be 321 00:19:54,445 --> 00:19:56,645 Speaker 1: satisfied with the conclusion and I don't get it. So 322 00:19:56,765 --> 00:20:00,285 Speaker 1: I thank you so much. Now an avalanche that's scientists 323 00:20:00,365 --> 00:20:04,045 Speaker 1: or like avalanche, but also the conspiracy theorists out there 324 00:20:04,125 --> 00:20:11,045 Speaker 1: are like no artistic doors homicide, and also maybe the Yetti. 325 00:20:11,365 --> 00:20:13,605 Speaker 1: And speaking of the Yetti, that's so crazy that I 326 00:20:13,605 --> 00:20:15,125 Speaker 1: just brought up because I'm gonna talk a little bit 327 00:20:15,125 --> 00:20:21,005 Speaker 1: more about the Yetti after the break. Oh, welcome back 328 00:20:21,045 --> 00:20:24,325 Speaker 1: to Cadaver Gal's. Taylor was just telling us about nine 329 00:20:24,405 --> 00:20:27,885 Speaker 1: hikers who mysteriously died in the Soviet Union in the 330 00:20:27,965 --> 00:20:32,005 Speaker 1: nineteen fifties. And Taylor, you did bring up that some 331 00:20:32,045 --> 00:20:38,645 Speaker 1: people thought it was the Yeti, perhaps the Abominable Snowman 332 00:20:38,965 --> 00:20:42,285 Speaker 1: as we like to call it in the United States here, 333 00:20:42,805 --> 00:20:45,765 Speaker 1: But I think it is extremely unlikely that a Yetti 334 00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:49,205 Speaker 1: would have done this or the Yetti, however many Yetti's 335 00:20:49,245 --> 00:20:52,685 Speaker 1: you think there are, because the Yeti actually has a 336 00:20:52,845 --> 00:20:57,445 Speaker 1: very gentle demeanor and a sacred background there. Actually they 337 00:20:57,485 --> 00:21:02,325 Speaker 1: come from some Sherpa and Tibetan Buddhist practices and they're 338 00:21:02,325 --> 00:21:04,845 Speaker 1: in that kind of lore in that area. So I 339 00:21:04,845 --> 00:21:06,645 Speaker 1: wanted to kind of we're talking about yetti, and I 340 00:21:06,645 --> 00:21:08,845 Speaker 1: really want to do like in defense of the YETI 341 00:21:09,165 --> 00:21:11,525 Speaker 1: why YETI wouldn't have done this because they seem like 342 00:21:11,525 --> 00:21:14,365 Speaker 1: they're really nice. Yeah, I think that they're really sweet 343 00:21:14,365 --> 00:21:16,685 Speaker 1: and snuggly, like they would have he would have like 344 00:21:16,805 --> 00:21:19,605 Speaker 1: cuddled them and kept them warm. I think probably, well, 345 00:21:19,645 --> 00:21:22,165 Speaker 1: like that monster's inc Yetti. The first thing when I 346 00:21:22,245 --> 00:21:24,125 Speaker 1: hear yetti, that's the guy I think of, the one 347 00:21:24,165 --> 00:21:28,205 Speaker 1: who makes the yellow popsicles. I love him. Yeah, So 348 00:21:28,325 --> 00:21:30,485 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, in a lot of other 349 00:21:31,285 --> 00:21:34,485 Speaker 1: you know, sort of American movies and Western movies, you know, 350 00:21:34,525 --> 00:21:37,605 Speaker 1: often it's the abominable Snowman. But I think it's a 351 00:21:37,645 --> 00:21:41,685 Speaker 1: bad representation because basically this negative connotation around the yetti 352 00:21:41,765 --> 00:21:44,805 Speaker 1: came about in nineteen twenty one when there is a 353 00:21:44,885 --> 00:21:48,725 Speaker 1: dude who was talking to a British newspaper and he 354 00:21:48,805 --> 00:21:51,685 Speaker 1: said that he had seen the yetti many years back, 355 00:21:51,805 --> 00:21:54,885 Speaker 1: and he made the unfortunate word choice of abominable when 356 00:21:54,925 --> 00:21:58,205 Speaker 1: he was describing it, and he was saying how it 357 00:21:58,285 --> 00:22:03,565 Speaker 1: was really scary. Formidable hands also said some racist things 358 00:22:03,605 --> 00:22:08,445 Speaker 1: about comparing it to someone who is Chinese, and then yeah, 359 00:22:08,445 --> 00:22:10,765 Speaker 1: he was really scared and it was called it a beast. 360 00:22:11,565 --> 00:22:14,685 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. The real origin of the yetti 361 00:22:14,765 --> 00:22:18,445 Speaker 1: comes from Cherpa folklore. The word yetti drives from the 362 00:22:18,605 --> 00:22:23,365 Speaker 1: Cherpa dialect that means cave dwelling bear. And there's two 363 00:22:23,365 --> 00:22:26,165 Speaker 1: different like yetty creatures. One has four legs, so it's 364 00:22:26,205 --> 00:22:28,485 Speaker 1: more most likely just like a bear, and then there's 365 00:22:28,485 --> 00:22:31,765 Speaker 1: also the bipedal yetti that is closer to human size. 366 00:22:31,965 --> 00:22:33,525 Speaker 1: There's a lot of people who you know, believe they 367 00:22:33,565 --> 00:22:36,965 Speaker 1: are real creatures and they describe them more as like 368 00:22:37,005 --> 00:22:40,765 Speaker 1: an ape instead of a bear. And you know, they're 369 00:22:40,805 --> 00:22:44,165 Speaker 1: saying that yettis are they're nocturnal, they like to yell out, 370 00:22:44,445 --> 00:22:48,085 Speaker 1: they like they let out a wild shriek sometimes, and 371 00:22:48,245 --> 00:22:50,925 Speaker 1: also notably they're feminist. You know, the leader of their 372 00:22:50,965 --> 00:22:55,245 Speaker 1: packs are female. So oh, I love that one. This 373 00:22:55,325 --> 00:22:58,205 Speaker 1: is one interpretation of the yetty. What do you think 374 00:22:58,205 --> 00:23:06,845 Speaker 1: they sound like yebby? Oh that's exactly what I'm I'm 375 00:23:06,965 --> 00:23:10,565 Speaker 1: saying this because I am a Yeti that is what 376 00:23:10,685 --> 00:23:15,125 Speaker 1: I'm you are out. I am the leader of one 377 00:23:15,165 --> 00:23:18,885 Speaker 1: pack of the yetis. But this sort of comes from 378 00:23:18,885 --> 00:23:23,885 Speaker 1: more Buddhists, from more Buddhism ideas, because there's this one 379 00:23:23,965 --> 00:23:29,485 Speaker 1: idea that there was the manifestation of a female god 380 00:23:29,685 --> 00:23:32,405 Speaker 1: and a male god and the female was a rock 381 00:23:32,565 --> 00:23:35,445 Speaker 1: ogress and the male was a monkey and they made 382 00:23:35,485 --> 00:23:39,005 Speaker 1: and that made the yetti. Oh, oh my god. So 383 00:23:39,085 --> 00:23:43,045 Speaker 1: that's like the deity yetti idea, and there's a lot 384 00:23:43,085 --> 00:23:46,485 Speaker 1: of debate in like Buddhism. They're like, canna yetti actually 385 00:23:46,565 --> 00:23:51,285 Speaker 1: practice Buddhism because usually Buddhism is limited to the human form. 386 00:23:51,325 --> 00:23:52,965 Speaker 1: But they're like, well, they're kind of human, they have 387 00:23:53,085 --> 00:23:57,445 Speaker 1: human characteristics, so yeah, maybe a yetti can be a Buddhist, okay. 388 00:23:57,925 --> 00:24:00,365 Speaker 1: And so obviously with the Buddhist, you know, that's sort 389 00:24:00,405 --> 00:24:05,885 Speaker 1: of a it's a nicer, calmer, more pacifist idea of 390 00:24:05,925 --> 00:24:08,925 Speaker 1: like what a yeti is their gentle and kind because 391 00:24:08,965 --> 00:24:11,805 Speaker 1: there is this one story of this one Sherpa Buddhist 392 00:24:12,485 --> 00:24:15,285 Speaker 1: who like went to go pray in a cave, and 393 00:24:15,365 --> 00:24:17,765 Speaker 1: a lot of times when these religious leaders would do that, 394 00:24:17,845 --> 00:24:19,885 Speaker 1: people would you know, come and bring them food and 395 00:24:19,925 --> 00:24:23,005 Speaker 1: water for their meditation. But in this story there was 396 00:24:23,045 --> 00:24:25,045 Speaker 1: a Yetti who actually did that, So it's saying the 397 00:24:25,125 --> 00:24:29,365 Speaker 1: Yeti was helping this Sherpa Buddhist. What a king of 398 00:24:29,485 --> 00:24:33,685 Speaker 1: Oh God, I want a Yeti to just hold me 399 00:24:33,725 --> 00:24:36,605 Speaker 1: in their big arms and I'm like, just like keep 400 00:24:36,645 --> 00:24:39,965 Speaker 1: me warm. I'm sorry. Yeah, And there's like this paintings 401 00:24:39,965 --> 00:24:43,405 Speaker 1: and like imagery and like Tibetan Buddhism of yetis and 402 00:24:43,405 --> 00:24:47,885 Speaker 1: they seem like nice, nice people, nice human ish type 403 00:24:47,885 --> 00:24:50,965 Speaker 1: people to hang out with. But also, you know, there 404 00:24:51,045 --> 00:24:54,685 Speaker 1: is this other idea where the yeti is sort of 405 00:24:55,005 --> 00:24:57,725 Speaker 1: the yetis are thought to be manifestations of a deity 406 00:24:58,045 --> 00:25:01,085 Speaker 1: that's there to maintain the harmony of community. So if 407 00:25:01,125 --> 00:25:04,565 Speaker 1: you do act out, they will create the Yeti to 408 00:25:04,925 --> 00:25:07,565 Speaker 1: you know, door order, and the Yeti will do whatever 409 00:25:07,605 --> 00:25:10,445 Speaker 1: it takes. So, you know, the Yeti could be dangerous 410 00:25:10,485 --> 00:25:12,725 Speaker 1: to you, like if you hear a Yeti see a Yetti, 411 00:25:13,005 --> 00:25:15,005 Speaker 1: that could be a bad omen at the same time, 412 00:25:15,445 --> 00:25:17,085 Speaker 1: but in general, it seems like, you know, they're not 413 00:25:17,125 --> 00:25:19,725 Speaker 1: just these monsters. They're like they're just trying to make 414 00:25:19,725 --> 00:25:22,125 Speaker 1: sure everyone has like you know, their say, their voice 415 00:25:22,125 --> 00:25:24,125 Speaker 1: of communities and harmony. That's what they're trying to do. 416 00:25:24,365 --> 00:25:28,245 Speaker 1: So so I mean, yeah, maybe the YETI did it 417 00:25:28,285 --> 00:25:32,845 Speaker 1: because maybe these hikers were doing something honestly. Yeti's have 418 00:25:32,925 --> 00:25:35,285 Speaker 1: big dick energy. That's all I'm gonna say. Well, that's 419 00:25:35,325 --> 00:25:38,285 Speaker 1: an interesting point that you bring up, Ka, But I'm feeling, 420 00:25:38,325 --> 00:25:41,325 Speaker 1: you know, the yetis maybe they had to maintain harmony, 421 00:25:41,445 --> 00:25:43,005 Speaker 1: and maybe that's why they had to get rid of 422 00:25:43,045 --> 00:25:45,165 Speaker 1: these hikers. But I also do not see them as 423 00:25:45,205 --> 00:25:48,645 Speaker 1: like aggressive, so YETI I think I just prove the 424 00:25:48,725 --> 00:25:51,925 Speaker 1: YETI theory. So you're welcome you, yeah, because they have 425 00:25:51,925 --> 00:25:55,125 Speaker 1: a different disposition. You know, they're not these evil monsters 426 00:25:55,125 --> 00:25:57,045 Speaker 1: trying to rip out people's tongues. They wouldn't do that 427 00:25:57,125 --> 00:26:00,725 Speaker 1: kind of shit. They would not. I love with the YETI. Yeah, 428 00:26:00,725 --> 00:26:05,365 Speaker 1: I'll just say it. I'm in love with the YETI. Okay, Nick, 429 00:26:05,485 --> 00:26:09,045 Speaker 1: And now that we've established your attraction to the Jetty, 430 00:26:09,445 --> 00:26:12,925 Speaker 1: it is time for you to tell us a new story. 431 00:26:14,085 --> 00:26:17,685 Speaker 1: I think that this story actually does have a conclusion. 432 00:26:17,885 --> 00:26:23,205 Speaker 1: Oh I know, I know. I'm bringing you guys the goods. Okay, Well, 433 00:26:23,285 --> 00:26:27,805 Speaker 1: let me do another trigger warning, trigger warning drawing conclusions. Okay, 434 00:26:28,405 --> 00:26:33,925 Speaker 1: let's go for it. This is a story for romantics 435 00:26:34,125 --> 00:26:37,525 Speaker 1: and also for people that are deranged. You know, I 436 00:26:37,685 --> 00:26:40,965 Speaker 1: speak you all, I hear you all, and I present 437 00:26:41,045 --> 00:26:45,085 Speaker 1: to you this love sick or just sick man known 438 00:26:45,165 --> 00:26:50,285 Speaker 1: as Carl Tansler. This is a really intense story. Buckle up, 439 00:26:50,365 --> 00:26:53,485 Speaker 1: put your little seatbelts on, Strap on with your strap bonds. 440 00:26:53,525 --> 00:26:57,125 Speaker 1: Let's get it. Okay, it's nineteen thirties and Carl is 441 00:26:57,165 --> 00:27:01,005 Speaker 1: this German born radiologist who immigrated to Florida after World 442 00:27:01,005 --> 00:27:03,565 Speaker 1: War One. He spent some time in Australia, then he 443 00:27:03,645 --> 00:27:08,005 Speaker 1: moved to Holland, I believe, and then he moved to 444 00:27:08,085 --> 00:27:11,245 Speaker 1: Florida because his sister was there. So he's in Florida 445 00:27:11,285 --> 00:27:13,885 Speaker 1: with his wife and his two daughters and they settle 446 00:27:13,925 --> 00:27:18,085 Speaker 1: into American culture. Okay, now, let me just say this. 447 00:27:18,085 --> 00:27:21,725 Speaker 1: This man left his family and moved to Key West 448 00:27:21,765 --> 00:27:24,245 Speaker 1: to work in a marine hospital as an X ray technician, 449 00:27:24,525 --> 00:27:28,125 Speaker 1: like maybe two years into living in Florida. So y'all 450 00:27:28,125 --> 00:27:31,845 Speaker 1: know how I feel about men who leave their families. 451 00:27:32,125 --> 00:27:35,325 Speaker 1: Like for me, this man's already canceled, but he's going 452 00:27:35,365 --> 00:27:38,085 Speaker 1: to get more canceled. He's going to get more canceled. 453 00:27:38,405 --> 00:27:42,005 Speaker 1: That's terrific. Yeah. So he's in Key West, living his 454 00:27:42,085 --> 00:27:45,165 Speaker 1: single life whatever. He's fifty at this point, and he 455 00:27:45,205 --> 00:27:50,285 Speaker 1: meets this twenty two year old woman, Maria Elena Milagro Ojos, 456 00:27:50,405 --> 00:27:53,565 Speaker 1: and her mother brought her in because Maria was dying 457 00:27:53,605 --> 00:27:59,245 Speaker 1: of tuberculosis bad. Now, back then, tuberculosis was like kind 458 00:27:59,285 --> 00:28:01,325 Speaker 1: of a death sentence, and so he was freaking out 459 00:28:01,365 --> 00:28:06,805 Speaker 1: because apparently over Carl's life, he claimed that he would 460 00:28:06,805 --> 00:28:10,885 Speaker 1: see the ghost of a stunning, dark haired woman and 461 00:28:10,965 --> 00:28:13,805 Speaker 1: he felt like that stunning woman was going to be 462 00:28:13,845 --> 00:28:15,805 Speaker 1: the love of his life. Now, first of all, can 463 00:28:15,885 --> 00:28:18,045 Speaker 1: imagine being married to this guy and he starts telling 464 00:28:18,045 --> 00:28:21,045 Speaker 1: the story about the ghost that visits him. What the fuck? Like, 465 00:28:21,205 --> 00:28:23,205 Speaker 1: I would not be okay with that, but okay, go 466 00:28:23,325 --> 00:28:26,045 Speaker 1: marry her. Then that would be Yeah, that'd be so rude, 467 00:28:26,045 --> 00:28:27,765 Speaker 1: being like, hey, I know I'm married to you, but 468 00:28:27,805 --> 00:28:32,045 Speaker 1: the love of my life is this ghost? So exadly exactly, 469 00:28:32,125 --> 00:28:36,645 Speaker 1: So he believes this and then in walks media dying 470 00:28:36,925 --> 00:28:39,645 Speaker 1: and she needs his help. So of course he wants 471 00:28:39,645 --> 00:28:42,245 Speaker 1: to help her. So he gets to work. He's convinced 472 00:28:42,285 --> 00:28:44,805 Speaker 1: that she is it for him, and he starts taking 473 00:28:44,805 --> 00:28:48,285 Speaker 1: care of her and her family's home, and he showers 474 00:28:48,285 --> 00:28:51,045 Speaker 1: her with gifts. He tells her that he loves her. 475 00:28:51,085 --> 00:28:53,045 Speaker 1: He tells her family that he loves her, like the 476 00:28:53,125 --> 00:28:55,765 Speaker 1: whole thing, and it's recorded that she did not feel 477 00:28:55,765 --> 00:28:59,205 Speaker 1: the same way. But like, also, she was dying and 478 00:28:59,285 --> 00:29:01,565 Speaker 1: he seemed to be her only chance, so she wasn't 479 00:29:01,605 --> 00:29:04,685 Speaker 1: like fuck off. You know. He literally tries everything to 480 00:29:04,685 --> 00:29:07,925 Speaker 1: save her. I say everything, but like, did he ever 481 00:29:07,965 --> 00:29:09,885 Speaker 1: take her to qualify doctor because he was just an 482 00:29:09,925 --> 00:29:13,565 Speaker 1: X ray technician? Yeah. Anyway, he gave her medicine and 483 00:29:13,605 --> 00:29:17,085 Speaker 1: elixirs and tonics and tried everything that he knew to do, 484 00:29:17,445 --> 00:29:20,445 Speaker 1: but nothing worked. And then in October of nineteen thirty one, 485 00:29:21,045 --> 00:29:26,325 Speaker 1: she passed away. Yeah, so he pays for her funeral. 486 00:29:26,645 --> 00:29:30,285 Speaker 1: He gets her expensive mausoleum that only he has the 487 00:29:30,365 --> 00:29:33,925 Speaker 1: key to. His family is like this is kind of weird, 488 00:29:33,965 --> 00:29:36,725 Speaker 1: but also like, funerals are expensive, so yes, he can 489 00:29:36,765 --> 00:29:39,205 Speaker 1: pay for it, and he loved her, you know, Okay, 490 00:29:39,525 --> 00:29:41,645 Speaker 1: this is love, This is what love. This is a 491 00:29:41,645 --> 00:29:45,725 Speaker 1: healthy relationship. Yes, So he hires a mortician to prepare 492 00:29:45,765 --> 00:29:49,965 Speaker 1: her body, and he is heartbroken. Harl ends up visiting 493 00:29:50,165 --> 00:29:54,365 Speaker 1: Maria Elena for two years straight, every single night, and 494 00:29:54,405 --> 00:29:57,885 Speaker 1: he would like sing Spanish love songs to her. He 495 00:29:58,005 --> 00:30:02,365 Speaker 1: was super dedicated. And the tomb that he bought. I 496 00:30:02,365 --> 00:30:04,125 Speaker 1: saw a picture of it, and it's insane. It's like 497 00:30:04,485 --> 00:30:07,685 Speaker 1: big and bright white and has fresh flowers always and 498 00:30:08,325 --> 00:30:09,925 Speaker 1: her name is like at the front. It was just 499 00:30:10,045 --> 00:30:13,525 Speaker 1: very intentional, very beautiful. Like clearly he cared a lot 500 00:30:13,565 --> 00:30:17,325 Speaker 1: about her for what reason, I don't know, but he did. 501 00:30:17,445 --> 00:30:19,285 Speaker 1: You know. It's like, I guess it's a thing where 502 00:30:19,285 --> 00:30:22,165 Speaker 1: you meet someone and you just become obsessed with them 503 00:30:22,205 --> 00:30:24,525 Speaker 1: and it's like infatuation. And he just thought she was 504 00:30:24,565 --> 00:30:27,285 Speaker 1: the ghost, you know, the like pre ghost. It's just 505 00:30:27,325 --> 00:30:29,525 Speaker 1: weird that there was a pre ghost before she was 506 00:30:29,605 --> 00:30:33,325 Speaker 1: dad that visited him. Absolutely, that is kind of strange. 507 00:30:33,365 --> 00:30:36,805 Speaker 1: But that's that could be like him seeing into the future, right, well, 508 00:30:36,845 --> 00:30:38,525 Speaker 1: I think that's what he believed. He was like, I've 509 00:30:38,565 --> 00:30:40,445 Speaker 1: seen those ghosts for so long, and then this woman 510 00:30:40,885 --> 00:30:43,165 Speaker 1: comes into my life clearly, she's the love of my life, 511 00:30:43,165 --> 00:30:45,365 Speaker 1: and then she dies. It's like I've seen you, dad, 512 00:30:46,285 --> 00:30:50,205 Speaker 1: this is the one great m Well, not for long 513 00:30:50,325 --> 00:30:53,925 Speaker 1: she dies because things get a little weird and he 514 00:30:54,165 --> 00:30:57,285 Speaker 1: abruptly gets fired from his job two years after Maria 515 00:30:57,365 --> 00:31:01,485 Speaker 1: Ninez passing, and he stops visiting the grave, which her 516 00:31:01,525 --> 00:31:04,125 Speaker 1: family found kind of weird because he loved he was 517 00:31:04,165 --> 00:31:06,845 Speaker 1: so I know, he was so intense about visiting her 518 00:31:06,885 --> 00:31:14,205 Speaker 1: every night. Well, it turns out was so bad. It 519 00:31:14,205 --> 00:31:16,605 Speaker 1: turns out he had taken her body from the grave 520 00:31:16,725 --> 00:31:23,645 Speaker 1: site and moved it into his apartment. Oh what are 521 00:31:23,685 --> 00:31:27,525 Speaker 1: you doing? What are you doing, Carl? So he had 522 00:31:27,565 --> 00:31:30,525 Speaker 1: an abandoned airplane hangar that he converted into like a 523 00:31:30,805 --> 00:31:35,125 Speaker 1: medical facility. I put little quotation marks because okay and 524 00:31:37,045 --> 00:31:40,565 Speaker 1: oh yeah. And he spent a couple of weeks maintaining 525 00:31:40,765 --> 00:31:43,605 Speaker 1: the corpse because it had been obviously in a tomb 526 00:31:43,605 --> 00:31:46,805 Speaker 1: for two years. He basically did a bunch of DIY 527 00:31:46,845 --> 00:31:49,485 Speaker 1: tricks to preserve the body as much as possible. So 528 00:31:49,525 --> 00:31:52,885 Speaker 1: like he put glass eyes into her eyes sockets, Like 529 00:31:53,085 --> 00:31:56,405 Speaker 1: he replaced a lot of the decomposed skin with silk 530 00:31:56,525 --> 00:32:01,285 Speaker 1: coated in wax and plaster. He also just coated the 531 00:32:01,325 --> 00:32:04,325 Speaker 1: body in perfumes and oils because the smell of death 532 00:32:04,365 --> 00:32:06,405 Speaker 1: and decay was so strong. And he would do this 533 00:32:06,485 --> 00:32:11,445 Speaker 1: for d like always, just strong perfume, strong fresh flowers, 534 00:32:11,725 --> 00:32:13,085 Speaker 1: all of that sort of stuff because the smell was 535 00:32:13,085 --> 00:32:15,885 Speaker 1: so bad. Her hair had fallen out, and so he 536 00:32:15,965 --> 00:32:20,165 Speaker 1: ended up making a wig from her past haircuts, like haircloth. 537 00:32:20,485 --> 00:32:22,725 Speaker 1: I guess her mom had kept and gave to him. 538 00:32:23,205 --> 00:32:26,205 Speaker 1: Mother why you know, Like that's kind of sketchy that 539 00:32:26,245 --> 00:32:28,485 Speaker 1: he wants that, but okay, and so he made that 540 00:32:28,525 --> 00:32:31,365 Speaker 1: little wig. She had a short, short haircut wig, you know, 541 00:32:31,485 --> 00:32:35,725 Speaker 1: short queen. He used coat hangers and wires to make 542 00:32:35,765 --> 00:32:38,805 Speaker 1: sure that she could stand upright, and then stucked her 543 00:32:38,845 --> 00:32:42,565 Speaker 1: abdomen with rags to keep her physical like composure. Like 544 00:32:42,605 --> 00:32:49,165 Speaker 1: her body. This man not at all. Ye listen, there 545 00:32:49,245 --> 00:32:56,805 Speaker 1: was even a tube inside her vagina. Oh yeah, yeah, sad, 546 00:32:57,405 --> 00:33:03,245 Speaker 1: it's bad. He never admitted to nickrophilia, like why would 547 00:33:03,245 --> 00:33:06,005 Speaker 1: it be there? Why why would it be wiser or 548 00:33:06,005 --> 00:33:09,125 Speaker 1: two there?

While he was working on 551 00:33:19,005 --> 00:33:22,365 Speaker 1: her body, he also made a million volt Tesla coil, 552 00:33:22,885 --> 00:33:26,525 Speaker 1: which is like a lot of energy, and basically his 553 00:33:26,645 --> 00:33:29,845 Speaker 1: idea was that he wanted to use it to electrocute 554 00:33:29,845 --> 00:33:33,285 Speaker 1: her into being revived, and he tried, y'all bless him. 555 00:33:33,285 --> 00:33:35,525 Speaker 1: He tried.

That's the thing, like, 561 00:33:53,245 --> 00:33:55,285 Speaker 1: you know, science just wasn't where it was like in 562 00:33:55,325 --> 00:34:00,005 Speaker 1: the thirties. I don't know if it was. Don't have 563 00:34:00,045 --> 00:34:02,485 Speaker 1: any of her organs.

Well listen, 565 00:34:07,605 --> 00:34:09,965 Speaker 1: and it gets a little bit more bananas. So good. 566 00:34:10,125 --> 00:34:13,325 Speaker 1: He takes her, you know, a body which at this 567 00:34:13,365 --> 00:34:16,285 Speaker 1: point looks more like a doll than a person, which, 568 00:34:16,405 --> 00:34:20,605 Speaker 1: by the way, he also like painted on eyebrows like 569 00:34:21,285 --> 00:34:25,205 Speaker 1: on her silk wax, you know, face, and the eyebrows 570 00:34:25,205 --> 00:34:27,885 Speaker 1: were so thin, like that's not cute, Like, y'all need 571 00:34:27,925 --> 00:34:29,925 Speaker 1: to make sure that your eyebrows are well filled in 572 00:34:30,005 --> 00:34:32,445 Speaker 1: if you can. Don't know how to do eyebrows. Men 573 00:34:32,605 --> 00:34:35,845 Speaker 1: don't know how to do eyebrows, Not even this doctor okay. 574 00:34:36,285 --> 00:34:41,525 Speaker 1: So he takes the body it okay, all right, and 575 00:34:41,605 --> 00:34:44,205 Speaker 1: he takes it to his apartment and he perfumes it 576 00:34:44,245 --> 00:34:46,165 Speaker 1: all the time, like I said, And he lived as 577 00:34:46,205 --> 00:34:48,765 Speaker 1: if she was alive. He would sleep next to her, 578 00:34:49,125 --> 00:34:51,045 Speaker 1: he would dance with her, he would sink to her, 579 00:34:51,045 --> 00:34:56,165 Speaker 1: he'd buy her gifts constantly. Obviously it's never confirmed, but 580 00:34:56,525 --> 00:34:59,485 Speaker 1: why is the tube there? And he lived in a 581 00:34:59,605 --> 00:35:03,405 Speaker 1: small town at the time, so people started talking like, oh, 582 00:35:03,525 --> 00:35:05,805 Speaker 1: Carols in a good mood. Who's making girls so happy? 583 00:35:05,845 --> 00:35:08,445 Speaker 1: You know this? A little weird scientist man, who's he 584 00:35:08,485 --> 00:35:11,285 Speaker 1: buying gifts for? Like this is so strange. And obviously 585 00:35:11,365 --> 00:35:13,885 Speaker 1: Marian's family were kind of weirded out because they had 586 00:35:13,925 --> 00:35:16,005 Speaker 1: been really close to him. And then suddenly he stops 587 00:35:16,085 --> 00:35:18,685 Speaker 1: visiting the grave, doesn't really talk to them anymore, like, 588 00:35:18,885 --> 00:35:22,205 Speaker 1: is just very detached, and suddenly meets this new woman 589 00:35:22,405 --> 00:35:26,325 Speaker 1: who's a new woman they want to know. Well, okay, 590 00:35:26,805 --> 00:35:30,605 Speaker 1: also a little boy not new, yep, she's just new 591 00:35:30,645 --> 00:35:35,845 Speaker 1: and improved. They handled the flame, you know. Mm. Also, 592 00:35:36,085 --> 00:35:39,725 Speaker 1: this is terrible. A little boy reported seeing him dancing 593 00:35:39,765 --> 00:35:43,205 Speaker 1: with what seemed to look like a doll. Yeah, that's 594 00:35:43,245 --> 00:35:47,725 Speaker 1: traumatizing to watch Okay, So he was living, you know, 595 00:35:47,965 --> 00:35:51,125 Speaker 1: what he felt was his best life. And then one 596 00:35:51,205 --> 00:35:54,525 Speaker 1: day Mariana's sister was like, I need to go meet 597 00:35:54,565 --> 00:35:57,005 Speaker 1: this woman because what is going on. She walks into 598 00:35:57,045 --> 00:36:00,165 Speaker 1: his apartment and of course there's someone that vaguely looks 599 00:36:00,205 --> 00:36:05,325 Speaker 1: like her sister, and sure enough it's her sister. She 600 00:36:05,565 --> 00:36:08,685 Speaker 1: realizes that, so she alerts the authorities, takes marian and 601 00:36:08,725 --> 00:36:12,685 Speaker 1: his body away. They are Russ Carl. The trial obviously 602 00:36:12,725 --> 00:36:16,485 Speaker 1: becomes a massive scandal. He's on trial for grave robbing 603 00:36:16,565 --> 00:36:20,845 Speaker 1: and mummification and I guess nothing else. What's the charge 604 00:36:20,845 --> 00:36:26,525 Speaker 1: for having a bad personality? Yeah, but like, I didn't 605 00:36:26,565 --> 00:36:28,565 Speaker 1: know that you could have like a key to a 606 00:36:28,645 --> 00:36:31,725 Speaker 1: mausoleum that gives you direct access to a body. I 607 00:36:31,765 --> 00:36:34,085 Speaker 1: didn't know that was a thing. I think he put 608 00:36:34,085 --> 00:36:36,885 Speaker 1: a lot of money into the mausoleum and into like 609 00:36:36,925 --> 00:36:38,925 Speaker 1: the whole keeping, and they would just like give the 610 00:36:39,045 --> 00:36:43,085 Speaker 1: rich man things. Yeah, he said so during this trial, 611 00:36:43,445 --> 00:36:46,845 Speaker 1: he basically said that the more that he visited Maria Lena, 612 00:36:46,925 --> 00:36:50,125 Speaker 1: the more he felt her spirit tell him take me away, 613 00:36:50,445 --> 00:36:52,245 Speaker 1: like I'm stuck here. I don't want to be here. 614 00:36:52,685 --> 00:36:55,885 Speaker 1: I want to be with you. Whatever, and so he 615 00:36:56,005 --> 00:36:58,925 Speaker 1: was like, okay, and he did it. He also said 616 00:36:58,965 --> 00:37:02,845 Speaker 1: that he wanted to blast her into the stratosphere because 617 00:37:02,885 --> 00:37:07,565 Speaker 1: he felt like the electrical energy for space would revive 618 00:37:07,685 --> 00:37:12,365 Speaker 1: her solar neurons. Is he like looking for Like okay, 619 00:37:12,445 --> 00:37:14,765 Speaker 1: so he saw this ghost in his dreams or whatever 620 00:37:14,845 --> 00:37:17,725 Speaker 1: and he loved her blah blah blah. But like, so 621 00:37:18,165 --> 00:37:20,365 Speaker 1: was he like trying to revive her spirit or was 622 00:37:20,405 --> 00:37:22,725 Speaker 1: her did he say like her spirit was still there? 623 00:37:22,845 --> 00:37:24,765 Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? No, he said her 624 00:37:24,805 --> 00:37:27,645 Speaker 1: spirit was still there. He wanted to revive her physical body, 625 00:37:27,765 --> 00:37:32,645 Speaker 1: physical body, yes, And this is so bananas to me, 626 00:37:32,725 --> 00:37:35,165 Speaker 1: but you know what, people romanticize serial killers all the time. 627 00:37:35,485 --> 00:37:38,165 Speaker 1: Everyone was like, oh my gosh, she's so banana's romantic 628 00:37:38,205 --> 00:37:43,405 Speaker 1: and sweet like this strange eccent drink guy like loved 629 00:37:43,445 --> 00:37:46,325 Speaker 1: her so much. Well, and this man, y'all he was 630 00:37:46,405 --> 00:37:53,845 Speaker 1: cleared of all charges what Yes, because of the statute 631 00:37:54,085 --> 00:37:57,445 Speaker 1: of limitation. So fun, so fun. He had lived with 632 00:37:57,525 --> 00:38:00,845 Speaker 1: Maria Lena's body for seven years and apparently that's enough 633 00:38:00,885 --> 00:38:03,645 Speaker 1: time to not be guilty of grave robbing or a mummification. 634 00:38:04,045 --> 00:38:09,005 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love that, but like love that. Yeah, 635 00:38:09,045 --> 00:38:13,765 Speaker 1: And obviously. So we're in the thirties. He free and 636 00:38:13,805 --> 00:38:17,445 Speaker 1: clear and you know, goes away, lives his life, and 637 00:38:17,485 --> 00:38:20,885 Speaker 1: then they end up putting Marie Leno's body on public 638 00:38:20,925 --> 00:38:23,485 Speaker 1: display because that's what you do with mummies, I guess, 639 00:38:23,805 --> 00:38:27,405 Speaker 1: before finally burying her in an unmarked grave so he 640 00:38:27,445 --> 00:38:31,885 Speaker 1: would not find her again. That's sad. That is very sad. 641 00:38:32,005 --> 00:38:35,325 Speaker 1: You have to like hide, to hide a body from somebody, 642 00:38:35,445 --> 00:38:37,965 Speaker 1: because like he was so obsessed with her. I don't 643 00:38:38,005 --> 00:38:40,965 Speaker 1: like that at all, which is like so gross because 644 00:38:41,365 --> 00:38:43,565 Speaker 1: literally he met her once and then was like, Okay, 645 00:38:43,565 --> 00:38:46,965 Speaker 1: she's the one, and I'm just like, dude, what no 646 00:38:47,405 --> 00:38:52,045 Speaker 1: date a little bit, you know, get to know her. Yeah, 647 00:38:52,085 --> 00:38:54,645 Speaker 1: she has tuberculosis, but you know, there's probably a lot 648 00:38:54,685 --> 00:38:57,965 Speaker 1: of other conversations you could have been happen. So that's 649 00:38:58,005 --> 00:39:00,325 Speaker 1: the conclusion. That's the story. I hate that, you know, 650 00:39:00,365 --> 00:39:02,525 Speaker 1: he got away with it, but if it makes y'all 651 00:39:02,525 --> 00:39:04,805 Speaker 1: feel better, he died alone and was found three weeks 652 00:39:04,845 --> 00:39:07,445 Speaker 1: after he died in his home, So yeah, that makes 653 00:39:07,445 --> 00:39:11,325 Speaker 1: me feel better. I feel so good now, Nika, thank 654 00:39:11,365 --> 00:39:18,405 Speaker 1: you for sharing that nightmare, and I am excited to 655 00:39:18,525 --> 00:39:22,805 Speaker 1: have bad dreams tonight.

Okay, 659 00:39:33,405 --> 00:39:38,245 Speaker 1: we'll be right back. Okay, guys, welcome to the last 660 00:39:38,245 --> 00:39:42,685 Speaker 1: section of Cadaver Gals today. And Nika was talking about 661 00:39:42,925 --> 00:39:46,645 Speaker 1: a terrible thing that happened something we like to do 662 00:39:46,685 --> 00:39:52,845 Speaker 1: on this show, and Carl made Maria Lena into an 663 00:39:52,885 --> 00:39:55,845 Speaker 1: effigy basically, So we were thinking about, you know, what 664 00:39:56,045 --> 00:39:58,685 Speaker 1: is an effigy? Could we make our own, like, what 665 00:39:58,765 --> 00:40:02,765 Speaker 1: would be the best fit for our own effigies? And 666 00:40:03,125 --> 00:40:05,405 Speaker 1: because I think Nika's expressed in the past that you know, 667 00:40:05,805 --> 00:40:08,605 Speaker 1: she would love to have a sculpture of herself, you know, 668 00:40:08,685 --> 00:40:11,725 Speaker 1: after she dies, So let's figure out what might be 669 00:40:11,725 --> 00:40:15,085 Speaker 1: a good fit for us. Okay, I didn't know what 670 00:40:15,125 --> 00:40:17,445 Speaker 1: an effigy was before you started talking about it. Can 671 00:40:17,485 --> 00:40:20,765 Speaker 1: you tell us what an effigy is? Basically, it is 672 00:40:20,805 --> 00:40:25,925 Speaker 1: just any sort of model or structure of somebody, like 673 00:40:26,245 --> 00:40:27,965 Speaker 1: so it's very vague. They don't have to be dead 674 00:40:28,045 --> 00:40:33,165 Speaker 1: or alive, but just like a structure of a person basically. Yeah, 675 00:40:33,205 --> 00:40:37,365 Speaker 1: but like a DIY version, not like a well, some 676 00:40:37,485 --> 00:40:40,405 Speaker 1: are not that d y. There's sometimes a lot of 677 00:40:40,405 --> 00:40:43,645 Speaker 1: work goes into these effigies. It just really depends on 678 00:40:43,685 --> 00:40:45,285 Speaker 1: what you want. And so it's sort of like the 679 00:40:45,325 --> 00:40:48,285 Speaker 1: most common effigy I would say is the political effigy, 680 00:40:48,725 --> 00:40:50,445 Speaker 1: because you know, you need to set your intention with 681 00:40:50,445 --> 00:40:53,445 Speaker 1: your effigies, so we're doing the political stance. And political 682 00:40:53,525 --> 00:40:57,085 Speaker 1: effigies could date back to thirteen twenty eight when some 683 00:40:57,205 --> 00:41:01,005 Speaker 1: troops of the Holy Roman Emperor at the time burned 684 00:41:01,005 --> 00:41:04,525 Speaker 1: a straw puppet that was supposed to represent the pope. 685 00:41:04,885 --> 00:41:07,325 Speaker 1: So that was cool of them. That's like, you know, 686 00:41:07,365 --> 00:41:09,325 Speaker 1: the first sort of burning of an effigy that we 687 00:41:09,365 --> 00:41:13,645 Speaker 1: have written down. And this practice of burning political people 688 00:41:14,045 --> 00:41:17,565 Speaker 1: is still done throughout the world, from like India to 689 00:41:17,605 --> 00:41:20,885 Speaker 1: the Philippines to the US to Afghanistan. There's all sorts 690 00:41:20,885 --> 00:41:24,125 Speaker 1: of people who be burning political effigies and it's you know, 691 00:41:24,125 --> 00:41:26,645 Speaker 1: it's a statement. It's like a literal roast of somebody, 692 00:41:26,765 --> 00:41:29,685 Speaker 1: you know, just being like, hey, you you fucked up, 693 00:41:29,685 --> 00:41:32,005 Speaker 1: We don't like you. Yeah, we're not going to burn 694 00:41:32,045 --> 00:41:34,245 Speaker 1: you for real, that would be crazy. So we're just 695 00:41:34,245 --> 00:41:38,245 Speaker 1: gonna burn a likeness of you and you can build 696 00:41:38,285 --> 00:41:42,925 Speaker 1: this effigy out of wood, straw, wax, lots of other 697 00:41:42,965 --> 00:41:47,885 Speaker 1: different materials. American presidents are a widely popular effigy to 698 00:41:47,925 --> 00:41:51,445 Speaker 1: burn around the world, from Bush to Trump to Obama. 699 00:41:51,525 --> 00:41:54,885 Speaker 1: We are hated around the world for a variety of reasons. 700 00:41:55,565 --> 00:41:59,885 Speaker 1: If you like google Afghanistan George Bush effigy burning, you 701 00:41:59,925 --> 00:42:03,965 Speaker 1: get a beautiful gallery of photos of different George Bush effigies. 702 00:42:04,165 --> 00:42:07,445 Speaker 1: I think now that you explained, we have those in Colombia. 703 00:42:07,565 --> 00:42:09,845 Speaker 1: We do them for New Year's Eve, but it's only 704 00:42:09,885 --> 00:42:13,365 Speaker 1: like in smaller towns. And I remember when I was younger, 705 00:42:13,645 --> 00:42:16,005 Speaker 1: driving past like a smaller town we were going to 706 00:42:16,125 --> 00:42:19,405 Speaker 1: like another city or whatever, and I saw these. They 707 00:42:19,405 --> 00:42:22,685 Speaker 1: looked like dolls, and they were outside of everyone's home, 708 00:42:22,765 --> 00:42:25,205 Speaker 1: like there was one doll per household. And what they 709 00:42:25,245 --> 00:42:27,285 Speaker 1: do is they fill it with fireworks and it represents 710 00:42:27,325 --> 00:42:29,765 Speaker 1: like the past year, and then at midnight they light 711 00:42:29,805 --> 00:42:33,485 Speaker 1: them on fire slash like you know, turn the fireworks on. 712 00:42:33,565 --> 00:42:35,885 Speaker 1: I don't know how fireworks work, and then they explode 713 00:42:35,885 --> 00:42:39,365 Speaker 1: into the air. Oh that's exciting, that's fun. I feel 714 00:42:39,365 --> 00:42:41,125 Speaker 1: like we should have done that for twenty twenty or 715 00:42:41,285 --> 00:42:43,685 Speaker 1: going into twenty have done that for twenty twenty, I'll 716 00:42:43,725 --> 00:42:47,165 Speaker 1: do I'll do it next year, I'll do it this year. Great, Yeah, 717 00:42:47,205 --> 00:42:50,085 Speaker 1: because that's another use of like beyond the political effigy, 718 00:42:50,125 --> 00:42:52,685 Speaker 1: there's also seasonal effigy, So there's lots of different people 719 00:42:52,725 --> 00:42:56,205 Speaker 1: around the world who yeah, they too. For the transition 720 00:42:56,245 --> 00:42:59,605 Speaker 1: between seasons or around any like particular holidays, there's usually 721 00:42:59,605 --> 00:43:03,125 Speaker 1: an effigy burning, you know, or a lighting on fire, 722 00:43:03,365 --> 00:43:07,125 Speaker 1: or even the effig you know, a pinata is an 723 00:43:07,125 --> 00:43:10,965 Speaker 1: effigy in many ways, so like, you know, there's a 724 00:43:10,965 --> 00:43:13,125 Speaker 1: lot of pinatas are used for you know, more of 725 00:43:13,205 --> 00:43:15,085 Speaker 1: like a political stance, so you can like, you know, 726 00:43:15,405 --> 00:43:18,045 Speaker 1: have your Donald Trump pinata and beat the shit out 727 00:43:18,045 --> 00:43:20,685 Speaker 1: of it or you know, whichever's or a piniata person 728 00:43:20,765 --> 00:43:23,565 Speaker 1: that you want. Also, if I'm fat, pinadas were originally 729 00:43:23,565 --> 00:43:26,685 Speaker 1: made out of clay bowls, which does sound more exciting 730 00:43:26,765 --> 00:43:30,245 Speaker 1: to break. Oh yeah, the sounds a little more dangerous though, right, 731 00:43:30,405 --> 00:43:34,325 Speaker 1: Yeah dangerous is Heck you need goggles? Yeah. Then I 732 00:43:34,365 --> 00:43:36,325 Speaker 1: was just thinking, Nika, if we made a pinata of you, 733 00:43:36,605 --> 00:43:39,565 Speaker 1: what do you think it should be filled with? You know, um, 734 00:43:39,605 --> 00:43:42,565 Speaker 1: like press on nails obviously. Yeah, that would be a 735 00:43:42,605 --> 00:43:44,725 Speaker 1: good choice, like the click clack on the on the 736 00:43:44,725 --> 00:43:47,285 Speaker 1: ground as they are read everywhere, and there are all 737 00:43:47,325 --> 00:43:50,685 Speaker 1: different colors, all different sizes. You've got almond shape, you've 738 00:43:50,725 --> 00:43:53,605 Speaker 1: got coffin shaped, you've got square shape, you've got oval shape. 739 00:43:53,645 --> 00:43:55,565 Speaker 1: That would be fun once you break it open and 740 00:43:55,605 --> 00:43:57,645 Speaker 1: then you like get it what you can and then 741 00:43:58,005 --> 00:44:03,965 Speaker 1: you would have just like this crazy combination of nails. Absolutely, yeah, 742 00:44:04,005 --> 00:44:08,925 Speaker 1: press on nails and like little vasiline jars. Nice a staple. 743 00:44:09,125 --> 00:44:16,725 Speaker 1: You're welcome everyone, Instagram, Instagram, the concept, Instagram, the concept, 744 00:44:16,805 --> 00:44:22,285 Speaker 1: just iPhone. Yeah, I think mine would just be filled 745 00:44:22,285 --> 00:44:24,845 Speaker 1: with like Lord of the Rings DVDs, you know, just 746 00:44:24,925 --> 00:44:32,125 Speaker 1: smash them open, you know, just a handful of DVDs, Taylor, 747 00:44:32,205 --> 00:44:38,245 Speaker 1: would yours just be Gus coming out of Yeah? I 748 00:44:38,245 --> 00:44:40,765 Speaker 1: don't think we should put gus in Aina though, because 749 00:44:40,805 --> 00:44:42,965 Speaker 1: you do remember how you have to open up a pinata? 750 00:44:43,045 --> 00:44:47,885 Speaker 1: That would be beat it. Yeah, So just a little 751 00:44:47,885 --> 00:44:54,445 Speaker 1: trigger warning, post trigger warning animal beating. Oh my gosh, 752 00:44:54,485 --> 00:44:57,245 Speaker 1: it's a post trigger warning. That's how it works. What 753 00:44:57,365 --> 00:44:59,525 Speaker 1: you just heard that was a trigger? Sorry about that. 754 00:45:00,325 --> 00:45:02,645 Speaker 1: I was so sorry. We just triggered you. My bad. 755 00:45:03,605 --> 00:45:05,685 Speaker 1: I don't know if Nika, you fall into this like 756 00:45:05,765 --> 00:45:10,605 Speaker 1: political effigy burning. But I did find a different type 757 00:45:10,605 --> 00:45:12,645 Speaker 1: of effigy that I think you might be more m 758 00:45:12,645 --> 00:45:18,805 Speaker 1: bored with. It is a funereal effigy made of kings 759 00:45:18,805 --> 00:45:21,645 Speaker 1: and queens that was done in the in England and 760 00:45:21,845 --> 00:45:25,885 Speaker 1: France starting in the medieval time period. So here's what happens. Basically, 761 00:45:25,925 --> 00:45:27,845 Speaker 1: when a monarch would die, what they would do is 762 00:45:27,845 --> 00:45:30,685 Speaker 1: they would make a sculpture of them out of wood, wax, 763 00:45:30,765 --> 00:45:37,085 Speaker 1: and cloth, and before the next royal was coronated, everyone 764 00:45:37,165 --> 00:45:39,605 Speaker 1: had to treat that effigy as if it was a 765 00:45:39,685 --> 00:45:45,165 Speaker 1: real persona so like the servants had to wait on it, 766 00:45:45,605 --> 00:45:49,165 Speaker 1: they had to dress it, and probably a very elegant finery, 767 00:45:49,365 --> 00:45:52,645 Speaker 1: which I thought you might like. And then also you know, 768 00:45:52,725 --> 00:45:55,085 Speaker 1: I imagined they had to take like the king's counsel 769 00:45:55,085 --> 00:45:58,245 Speaker 1: and they had to talk to this like effigy because 770 00:45:58,365 --> 00:46:01,765 Speaker 1: like before the next person was coronated, which I'm just like, 771 00:46:01,845 --> 00:46:08,485 Speaker 1: that is so silly, that is sane. So yeah, so 772 00:46:08,525 --> 00:46:10,885 Speaker 1: I feel like this would be a good fit for 773 00:46:10,965 --> 00:46:15,085 Speaker 1: you because I know we've talked about like royalty. You 774 00:46:15,085 --> 00:46:17,645 Speaker 1: would like to be royalty. I would be the Jester 775 00:46:19,125 --> 00:46:24,325 Speaker 1: Taylor would take care of the horses. Yeah, the stable girls, girl, 776 00:46:25,045 --> 00:46:27,885 Speaker 1: this girl, the girl in the grounds, the ground I do. 777 00:46:28,045 --> 00:46:32,125 Speaker 1: I do feel like though, once you're gone, like you're gone, 778 00:46:32,205 --> 00:46:34,845 Speaker 1: like your spirit is gone. Body is whatever. I want, 779 00:46:34,885 --> 00:46:37,725 Speaker 1: like a sculpture to remember. I don't need a sculpture 780 00:46:37,925 --> 00:46:39,845 Speaker 1: for people to wait on me, because that's a little 781 00:46:39,885 --> 00:46:43,605 Speaker 1: bit insane. Okay, well we won't. We'll make sure we'll 782 00:46:43,685 --> 00:46:45,925 Speaker 1: keep that in mind. So keep me away from the 783 00:46:46,005 --> 00:46:48,605 Speaker 1: Carl Chandler's of the world. I think this is a 784 00:46:48,845 --> 00:46:53,005 Speaker 1: clarifying moment for us. And yeah, but then after they 785 00:46:53,005 --> 00:46:55,405 Speaker 1: would coordinate the people, then they would just like, you know, 786 00:46:55,605 --> 00:46:58,445 Speaker 1: store the effigy, you know, like back in the janitor's 787 00:46:58,485 --> 00:47:01,885 Speaker 1: close or whatever. Like they're like, it feels weird to 788 00:47:01,965 --> 00:47:04,005 Speaker 1: like get rid of this, like throw this away, like 789 00:47:04,085 --> 00:47:06,045 Speaker 1: this effige, I think we should, but we also don't 790 00:47:06,085 --> 00:47:08,245 Speaker 1: know what to do with it, so they would sometimes, Yeah, 791 00:47:08,245 --> 00:47:10,725 Speaker 1: they would just like store it exactly. It was a 792 00:47:10,805 --> 00:47:15,565 Speaker 1: very specific opening a closet and there are like full 793 00:47:15,685 --> 00:47:18,765 Speaker 1: life sized wooden dolls of all these kings and queens. 794 00:47:19,605 --> 00:47:22,485 Speaker 1: I would I just imagine them like strewn about too, 795 00:47:22,605 --> 00:47:25,405 Speaker 1: like not like it's just like to like, I don't 796 00:47:25,405 --> 00:47:29,165 Speaker 1: know what to do with you. Oh no, Like sometimes 797 00:47:29,165 --> 00:47:31,725 Speaker 1: they would put them in the tombs like or like 798 00:47:31,765 --> 00:47:34,165 Speaker 1: on top of the tombs or whatever. But then other 799 00:47:34,245 --> 00:47:36,085 Speaker 1: they would just be like ah, and now they're like 800 00:47:36,125 --> 00:47:38,885 Speaker 1: on display and like a museum. But it is kind 801 00:47:38,925 --> 00:47:43,045 Speaker 1: of how meta, like to have your effigy guarding your 802 00:47:43,085 --> 00:47:45,845 Speaker 1: tomb with your actual body inside of it. How bananas 803 00:47:45,925 --> 00:47:54,005 Speaker 1: is that? So bananas? It's supera anyway. Um, So effigies 804 00:47:54,045 --> 00:47:56,325 Speaker 1: they be happening, but they don't they don't really do it. 805 00:47:56,365 --> 00:47:58,485 Speaker 1: They don't do this anymore. You know, there's not effigies 806 00:47:58,525 --> 00:48:03,125 Speaker 1: of the you know, UK royals anymore. So um, good 807 00:48:03,125 --> 00:48:06,925 Speaker 1: to know, sadly. Yeah, Prince William effigy. Yeah, if y'all 808 00:48:06,925 --> 00:48:08,845 Speaker 1: do an effigy at Prince William, make sure it's when 809 00:48:08,845 --> 00:48:12,205 Speaker 1: he's younger, because he looks a little beat up. Now. Yeah, 810 00:48:11,125 --> 00:48:16,005 Speaker 1: he was, um whatever awarded. I don't know the word 811 00:48:16,005 --> 00:48:19,725 Speaker 1: I'm looking for here. Oh yeah, the most beautiful bald man. 812 00:48:20,485 --> 00:48:23,525 Speaker 1: Have you seen the rock? Yeah? Have you seen mister clean? 813 00:48:24,485 --> 00:48:28,885 Speaker 1: There's so have you seen? So I'm thinking that the 814 00:48:28,965 --> 00:48:31,005 Speaker 1: royal family is like so racist that they're like we're 815 00:48:31,005 --> 00:48:34,085 Speaker 1: gonna stop our effigy making now with like Megan Markle 816 00:48:34,965 --> 00:48:39,845 Speaker 1: that honestly, honestly, for all we know, there are the 817 00:48:39,965 --> 00:48:42,725 Speaker 1: effigies still there in the closet. I mean they're in 818 00:48:42,765 --> 00:48:45,525 Speaker 1: a museum now, but maybe they probably do put them 819 00:48:45,525 --> 00:48:50,005 Speaker 1: in a closet. Oh, yes, the Royal family secret effigies. 820 00:48:50,445 --> 00:48:56,285 Speaker 1: Oh we just started a conspiracy. See starts with starts 821 00:48:56,405 --> 00:49:01,325 Speaker 1: starts with us being just like, well, hell well, hell 822 00:49:01,365 --> 00:49:03,485 Speaker 1: the Royal Family's racist. What are we going to do? 823 00:49:04,805 --> 00:49:09,005 Speaker 1: I feel like I learned or relearned or remembered that 824 00:49:09,165 --> 00:49:16,005 Speaker 1: people are just very strange. Oh yeah, people are strange. 825 00:49:16,205 --> 00:49:19,285 Speaker 1: And I think that's the new logline for the series. 826 00:49:19,445 --> 00:49:27,445 Speaker 1: People are strange and they die at sus strange and 827 00:49:27,525 --> 00:49:34,125 Speaker 1: they die.
