It's actually we've got the A 23 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: C turned off in the studio here because it's a 24 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: little noisy, and so we're swaltering degree. He has not 25 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: enjoined this. We're gonna talk really fast to get this 26 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,639 Speaker 1: over whistle to turn the A C back on. Okay, 27 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: so let's dive right into this and saw us a 28 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: mystery today we're going to talk about. It's a mystery 29 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: that's kind of like a ghost ship. You remember the 30 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: Mary Celeste kind of creepy thing and Joe's wheelhouse totally. Yeah, 31 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: well this is like a ghost shift, except it's a 32 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: ghost island. Who uh so, Yeah, these people are showing 33 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: up expecting other people to be there because they're supposed 34 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: to be there, and they've disappeared and the place is 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: completely deserted. Creeper what that would actually kind of creep 36 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: me out, and I think and some of the people 37 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: that actually actually were involved with this were just a 38 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: little creeped out. But so these people disappeared and to 39 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: this day, no one has a clue what happened to them. 40 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: And I say to this day, because of course this 41 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: is the day, we're going to solve the riddle. Yeah, 42 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: I know. So the people who disappeared were the lighthouse 43 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: keepers at ellan Moore. I'm sure some of you maybe 44 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: have heard of this. Maybe. Ellen Moore is a is 45 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: an island about thirty nine acres. It's the largest of 46 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: the largest of the flanting islands or flanting isles. I 47 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: guess you would say the Scottish in the isles. Yeah, 48 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: that's the flatting aisles. Where's your accent the flant and 49 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: I don't know how to know. Yeah, So the flanting 50 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: aisles are in the Outer Hebrides, and which means that 51 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: like there are sort of northwest of northwest Scotland, and 52 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: the Outer Hebrides are even more outer than that, even 53 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: more northwest, so they're they're kind of isolated in this 54 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: little chunk of rock thirty nine acres. Yeah, it's just 55 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: just out there in the middle of nowhere. But it 56 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: was like kind of a kind of a rough neighborhood 57 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: for ships and stuff like that, and there were shipwrecks 58 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: out there. So they started to build a lighthouse in 59 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: the eight and because it was so rough building on 60 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: this particular little rock, they didn't open up for business 61 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: until eighteen, so it took him four years, looking four 62 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: years to build a simple little lighthouse. While it was 63 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: it was a fairly I mean, I think it was 64 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: an interesting construction of the lighthouse. Oh yeah, I mean 65 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: it's not just the lighthouse. But they had to like 66 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: get all this crap like out of the water in 67 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: these heaving North Atlantic seas, you know, and and drag 68 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: it off on shore. And they had to build stairways 69 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: and a little railway to hall supplies with all the 70 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: way up to the peak of the island to build 71 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: the lighthouse on it. It was, it was. It was 72 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: just a normal lighthouse. There wasn't anything nothing special about 73 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: It was just just a stack stone lighthouse about seven 74 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: pretty standard, yeah, pretty standard. And then of course I 75 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: had the attached the lighthouse keepers quarters, which is like 76 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: in a small little building like you'd expect typical little lighthouse. Yeah. 77 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: And so anyway, there were it was. It was manned 78 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: by three people. Are three guys, I should say, uh, 79 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: and the three guys In December of nineteen hundred hundred, 80 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: fourteen years ago, the three guys disappeared without a trace, 81 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: and nobody knows why. So what's the story here. Come on, 82 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: you're you're you're giving me a cliffhanger here, and that's 83 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: not okay. You gotta you gotta fill in the missing details. 84 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: So for pictures, visit our website. Yeah, send us an email. Yeah. Anyway, 85 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say, I'm gonna cut to the chase. 86 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: It was a it was an ocean going jetty. Cut 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: it out, cut it out, all right. So the first 88 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: clue that something was wrong was on the night of 89 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: December fifteen, nineteen hundred, the steamship SS Arc Tour in 90 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: some versions of the story say the Archer. But I've 91 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: heard it as an Arc tour. I've seen, I've seen 92 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: both ways. Yeah, so I passed through the island and 93 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: I was expecting to see the light, but the light 94 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: was not on when they actually when they arrived in 95 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: their import, they reported it, but apparently whoever at the 96 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: port they reported it too, didn't pass it along to 97 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: the Northern Lighthouse Board where it was the shipping companies 98 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: who they Yeah, yeah, apparently they didn't report it. Somebody 99 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: was lazy. Yeah, we've all been there. Yeah, I've had 100 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: a nickel for every time I slacked at work. Well, 101 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, I've got style Twitter to look at. I'm 102 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: not I'm not filing this TPS report. Yes, yes, Steam Twitter. Yeah, 103 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: you know, I forgot because I'm busy hauling boxes off 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: of this ship and somebody in passing was like, oh, 105 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: it's kind of weird that this light was out. Yeah, 106 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: and You're like, okay, fifty pounds of manure on top 107 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: of me. But they had correct me if I'm wrong. 108 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: I swear. I remember when I was reading about the 109 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: ship that reported it, they said they did it via wireless. 110 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: I've heard it both ways. And did they have wireless communication? 111 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: Did they had radio technology at the point right, Yeah, 112 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: like a telegram? Yeah, I've heard it both ways. One 113 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: of the one in most of the stories that I 114 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: see he'd waited till portant to report this, and I questioning. 115 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: I was questioning the day and age, how many ships 116 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: would have a radio But yeah, I don't know. I'm 117 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: sure it wasn't. Not every ship had, and I'm sure yeah, 118 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: but I don't think he was that far up from 119 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: port either than maybe a day or something like that. 120 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: Uh So. Also they also, by the way, I didn't 121 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: know this until I started researching this story, but apparently 122 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: the old days in the lighthouses, they would hire somebody 123 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: who was who lived on the coast to actually watched 124 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: the lighthouse to a telescope. I mean not seven, but 125 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: he would. His job was to basically check on a 126 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: periodically and make sure the light was burning. And they 127 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: had actually hired a gamekeeper on the on the closest 128 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: island to keep an eye on things. And he reported 129 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: he in his log that he hadn't seen it on 130 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 1: certain days, but again the weather was so heavy that 131 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: they were it was like twenty miles away. So well, 132 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: And I think a thing to point out to everybody 133 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: here is this is not a modern lighthouse. This is 134 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: a wick with mirrors around it to shine light. And 135 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: I think correct me if I'm wrong, Joe. But wasn't 136 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: it It shown about twenty miles I don't remember the 137 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: kind of power, but it showed out to see it 138 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: about you can see it about twenty miles away on 139 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 1: a clear night, and it was really interesting. Is the 140 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: the lens system that they use, I want to say 141 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: it was a French design, yeah, and it and it 142 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: was set up in a way that it had eight 143 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: panels so that it would have a long arc and 144 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: a short burst as it went around in the course 145 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: of a minute, so in a minute, you would get 146 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: eight flashes, so that you knew that that was a lighthouse, 147 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: and that was how you identified that particulcular lighthouse, because 148 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: each one was slightly different, so that if I was 149 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: a hundred miles farther down the coast, that lighthouse would 150 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: have a different pattern, so I knew where I was 151 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: in the dark. Yeah, it's a pretty ingenious little system. Yeah, 152 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: And I think about those fresnels, the lenses. I don't 153 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: know if you've ever been to a real lighthouse and 154 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: seeing those things. They're huge. I mean they're huge lenses 155 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: and very elaborate. If you go to the coast, the coast, 156 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: the coast, we've got some white houses down there, and 157 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: you see some of them down there. But we can't 158 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: make those things today. We don't. I mean, we don't 159 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: have the craftsmanship, the craftsmanship and the tools to make 160 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: those things anymore. I have seen the Bob the builder 161 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: where they have to replace the mirror in the limp 162 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: little so that kind of like perfect allegory. Yeah, I think, Yeah, 163 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: I go to uh, I want us really close by 164 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 1: as to Cape Mer's lighthouse on the coast, and unfortunately, 165 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: a couple of what's the word I'm thinking of, you know, jerks, jerks, 166 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: jerks not nice people? Yeah, bozos yeah, perfect, yeah, yeah, yeah. 167 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: They shot it up but it's still mostly intact. But 168 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: they still busted it up pretty good. And it's like, 169 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: you know, dude, that was like a hundred year old 170 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: piece of glass. More than that, I think. Yeah, those darks, yeah, 171 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: those what thung darks? I'm just trying to make up 172 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: a word that sounds appropriately offensive. Yeah, anyway, you guys go, yeah, 173 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: go check that out. Those lenses are pretty interesting. They're 174 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: pretty cool. Well, anyway, so back to our story. They 175 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: had a guy on shore watching. He noted that he 176 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: hadn't seen it, but again, it had heavy weather, so 177 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: he wasn't sure if he wasn't seeing because he had 178 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: actually not seen it on nights when it was still burning. Okay, 179 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: so wait they had there was heavy weather. Yeah, I 180 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: feel this is important to the continuation of the story. 181 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: So there had been heavy weather. Yeah, I mean, this 182 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: is like the North Atlantic in December in the wintertime. 183 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: It's a very lot. It's that this the latitude of 184 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: this is approximably fifty eight degrees north. Yeah, so I 185 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: just want to clarify for where this story is going. Yeah, 186 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: there was, in fact bad weather, Yeah, intermittent bad weather. 187 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't constant bad weather the entire I just wanted 188 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: to be sure, making you wonder why people would want 189 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: to live up there. You said it was fifty eight 190 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: degrees degrees north. Yeah, I'm trying of I'm trying to 191 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: think of like a major city or landmark that we 192 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: could equate that too for people to think about it 193 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: on the globe and Vancouver, BC. Yeah, I think Vancouver 194 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: is not that not nearly that far enough, not far enough. 195 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: So it's farther than than Vancouver, British Columbia. Yeah, it's 196 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: up there. So how many miles in a degree? Well, 197 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: we're about about which is just south of us. Yeah, um, 198 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: so where are we at, like forty nine maybe even 199 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: that are even that far wen something like that, so 200 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: that Vancouver is kind of I'm just thinking about to 201 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: equate it to the West coast in the East Coast, 202 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's way north of Massachusetts probably, you know. 203 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: And then I don't even know where to equate it 204 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: on the European But it's it's pretty far. Just to 205 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: give you an idea, I checked. I just happened to 206 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: check today and I did a little google on sunset 207 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: time and I found it. I found a town on 208 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: the on the club in Scotland that's basically just due 209 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: east of this island. It's about fifty degrees and what 210 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 1: what And I looked at the sunset time for today, 211 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: ten thirty three in the evening. It's one of the sunsets, 212 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: so it may be kind of like Alaska. It's kind 213 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: of like it's so it's way up there then, so 214 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: this is almost subarctic. Yeah, and that's and and of 215 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: course in the wintertime, and this this took place in 216 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 1: December day it's still some pretty cruddy weather. Yeah. Okay, 217 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: well that's that's good context to know. That's what I 218 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: was trying to try get a handle on. So any 219 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: way back to our story here, So the crew working 220 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: in the lighthouse, again, I said there were three guys. 221 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: They were named James Ducat, who was and I had 222 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: sorry for his errors. If i'm his errors, If I'm mispronouncing, 223 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: it's probably Ducatt. It could be Ducat. Let's probably something 224 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: even more for Ducatt. Donald McArthur and Thomas Marshall. So 225 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 1: Ducatt was the head lighthouse keeper, so he was a 226 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: boss man. Marshall was the second lighthousekeeper, and then Donald 227 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: McArthur was referred to as an occasional, which meant that 228 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 1: he didn't do it. It's full time and the other guys. 229 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: I guess the According to the story, the report got 230 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: in to the to the authorities that the lighthouse was out, 231 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: but the weather was too bad to actually take a 232 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: ship out to check on it, so it took eleven 233 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: days before they could make the crossing to investigate. Um. 234 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: The official record says that no, they had no idea 235 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: that the why I had even been out. They just 236 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: desperus was going on in a regular mission to um 237 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: take a guy out for to relieve one of the 238 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: members of the crew and take supplies out. Yeah. Yeah, 239 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean the official record, you know, because 240 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: I read all the stories that were out there, and 241 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of kind of melodramatic stuff about you. 242 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: Oh my god, they were beside themselves with worry about that. Yeah, 243 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: because that's that's most of the stories that I see, 244 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: And I have a feeling that the age of this 245 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: story there's a lot of embellishment. Oh yeah, yeah, so, 246 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: um so, actually they were just on a regularly scheduled trip. 247 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: They were supposed to go out and just and on 248 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: a relief And you were able to find that official report. Yeah, 249 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: that's on the Northern Lighthouse Boards website. Actually, they still exist, 250 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: they're still here. They still they have a website and 251 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: they published some documents related to this incident, which we'll 252 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 1: talk about in a few minutes. So anyway, so they 253 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: showed up without a clue that the light hasn't even 254 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: been out, but according to the story, they were dreadfully worried. 255 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: The crew of the light house should have been expecting 256 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: relief and they should have had the relief flag flying, 257 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: and they would it would be expected that they would 258 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: have boxes down the landing to be refilled with supplies 259 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: and truck back up because and I probably didn't mention this, 260 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: um maybe I did. They had besides stairways, they had 261 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: a little railway line. It was steam power day, had 262 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: a steam powered engine up in the main hot warehouse 263 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: or the main lighthouse, so that basically, through a series 264 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: of cables and pulleys would would let these carts down 265 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: and drag them back up put the supplies, and so 266 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: they probably would have had that little steam car, steam 267 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: powered car waiting down there, would be loaded up with supplies. 268 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: They're kind of creepy little rails now at this point there, 269 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, super abandoned railway desolate. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And 270 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: you noticed like they built right next to it, they 271 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: built a stairway. And if you look at the there's 272 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: pictures out there in the web of some of these 273 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: things as they exist today. And so you had to say, 274 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: there's curving down steeply and there's a stairway on the 275 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: outside on the cliff side of it. What's to me, 276 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: I would have put the stairway on the overboard. I 277 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: don't want to. Yeah, yeah, but they put this the stairway, 278 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: and you know, and and the photos the stairway has 279 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: no handrail, yeah, and it's pretty steep, and it's like 280 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: right next to a big old cliff. Yeah. So yeah, 281 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: it's like I'd be very very carefully going up and 282 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: down that thing. Uh So. Anyway, so they're expecting that 283 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: they're expecting these guys, at least one of the members 284 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: of the crew to be down there on this landing 285 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: that there's a landing not too far above sea level 286 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: where the boat ties up to, and they would expect 287 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: those guys because I mean it's a big event for them. 288 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you've been on this think for like a 289 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: month without any human contact. Three guys. These guys are 290 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: bringing the supplies and bringing the mail. Didn't didn't I swear, 291 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: And this might be the more fanciful tellings, but I 292 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: swore that there was time. There was something in it 293 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: about how they had to grow some of their own food. Yeah, 294 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: on the you know, they their own garden basically, Yeah, 295 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: they they had to have aless supposed that. I've heard 296 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: accounts that say that they had to do that too. 297 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: They had to raise animals and yea, and everything they 298 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: cheap and whatnot. Yeah, So I have no idea if 299 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: that standard up rating procedure for these guys are not. 300 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: It seems like I'll just throw this out there on 301 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: a kind of small rock right essentially off Scotland where 302 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: the weather is often awful. You're not going to raise 303 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: animals because they're going to blow away, I mean, or 304 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: otherwise there's a you know, I mean, that's the sort 305 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: of thing you don't necessarily do, especially when the technology 306 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: exists for you know, salted and cured meat, which isn't 307 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: as good. But you know, if the if the weather 308 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: is nice, you can do fishing if you need to. 309 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: But gardening, certainly, I think, except you're going to have 310 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: a really short growing season. Yeah, it's gonna stink, but 311 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: you can do it. But I remember seeing I mean 312 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: the name of this island. We was named after a 313 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: saint who built a small church there in six d 314 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: That's who they named the island after. They named it 315 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: after they named the whole. There's a there's a chain 316 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: of out seven islands that are called a flanting island. 317 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: That's the Flanty. Yeah, this was Ellian Moore is called 318 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: apparently it's Gaelic for the big island, you know, and 319 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: they it was guys. You see, you know, shepherds used 320 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: to take their sheep and this seems really dumb because 321 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: I can imagine what a task it must have been. 322 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: But they would cart their sheep to these islands, kick 323 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: them out on the island to feed on the grass. 324 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: They wouldn't stay overnight because they were fearing the spirits 325 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: or little people that live there, so they'd leave and 326 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: then come back a couple of days they actually their sheep. 327 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: They do that in Ireland still, but they did do that, 328 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: and I leaned and the cause or the reason for 329 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: that is because there are no predators on those islands. True, 330 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: but they don't seem to word much work cart I mean, 331 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: neither of you dealt with sheep. Yeah, they're stupid, right, 332 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 1: but so it's not like a daily thing, right you Like, 333 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: it's like for weeks or along. But but still it's 334 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: a giant pane in the butt to get a sheep 335 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: to go into a gated area, because they will, they'll 336 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: run into the fence, they'll run the opposite direction. They'll 337 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: go everywhere, but where the obvious hole is act that 338 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: I can only imagine trying to put them onto a boat, 339 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: which is you know, an archaic boat. Yeah, again, it's 340 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: gonna suck, but it's probably over well less than you're 341 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: gonna lose two wolves. Salted mutton right there they put 342 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: right into the ocean. You got salted mutton, pre salted. Yeah, 343 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. It just seems to me like it 344 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: would be a hell of a lot of work because 345 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: you'd have to haul and that's like the nearest other 346 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: islands at large Island that's to the east about fifty 347 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: and twenty miles. That's a long way to sail and 348 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: very rough sea. I guess you'd do it the summer. 349 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it's only done in the summertime, but it 350 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: just probably it's a little it's a little weird to me, 351 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: you know. Maybe they were just really hard up for 352 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: good grass for their sheep to graze on. Okay, anyway, 353 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: but enough of them sheep so that so the Asperus 354 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: shows up. Uh that the name of the relay, the 355 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: relationship to Hesperus. Yeah, it shows up, and they're a 356 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: little mistified. There's nobody there to meet them with the 357 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: landing and no signs of life at all. And they 358 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: shot off a rocket, an alert rocket, or basically basically, 359 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: they blasted the horns several times. They got no response, 360 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: and then shot off a flare and and got no response, 361 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: and then they lowered a boat and sent a boat 362 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: into the landing. And by the way, side note there 363 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: are two landings for the for this thing. There's one 364 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: in the east and one on the west side. So 365 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: and they were approaching on the east side landing, right, yeah, yeah, 366 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: they were, they were there. Actually they were actually sailing 367 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: from the east of the island, so that would be 368 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 1: the closer one. And it all depends on weather conditions, 369 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, so the which way the wind is blowing. 370 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: So if it's blown from the west, you see east 371 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: one that's blown from the east east of the west 372 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: one be on the least side. Yeah, so they hit 373 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: in that that that'll be somewhat more significant a little 374 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: bit later on. But so they so they lower a 375 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: boat and sent a few sailors ashore along with this 376 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: guy named Joseph Moore, and he was the relief guy. 377 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: He was the guy that was supposed to be taking 378 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: over so one of the other guys in the lighthouse 379 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: could go back to the shore for for a while. Yeah, exactly, 380 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: that's what he called the relief boat. So anyway he 381 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: goes ashore, and because there was nobody at the landing, 382 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: he had a little bit of trouble getting out of 383 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: the boat. I guess when you think about it would 384 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: be a lot easier to land your boat if there's 385 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: somebody standing on the landing that you can toss your 386 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: rope to tie off. Yeah, so it's a little bit, 387 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: a little bit tricky, but he got on shore and 388 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 1: climbed up all them steps to the lighthouse. And when 389 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: he gets there, well, so there's a gate around the lighthouse, 390 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: and it was shut. The gate was shut, which at 391 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: least that's to another mystery, which is why you need 392 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: a fence on a deserted island. Stock right there? Maybe 393 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: in reason, Maybe maybe that was to keep the livestock 394 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: out of their garden. So maybe they did have livestock 395 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: and a garden. I don't know. I figured it's kind 396 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: of irrelevant. I mean I heard that story too, but 397 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: I just figured it was kind of irrelevant to the 398 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: overall mystery. Sheep beat everything I could. It could have 399 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: been Killer Sheep. I like the sheep version of Night 400 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: of the Lepez. Yeah, have you ever seen that that 401 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: movie Black Sheep? I believe it's called black Sheep. Where 402 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: it is killer where Sheep? Literally they're where sheep. It's 403 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: a terrible bee movie, but it's funny to watch again, 404 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: I assert sheep version Night of the left Sorry, back 405 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: back to the story. Sorry, really good. They called sheep too. 406 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna skip sheep sheep too, and then and then 407 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: it's got to skip to sheep five. As long as 408 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: there's a weird makeout scene with popcorn. I think we're good. 409 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, okayed here anyway, So, so, as I said, so, 410 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: he finds the gates to the fence shut and latched. Uh. 411 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: And then he goes from there to the outside door 412 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: to the keeper's quarters and that door is shutting matched Okay, 413 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: I was always as could be expected. And he goes 414 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: inside and everything was all neat and tidy. Everything was 415 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: in order, nothing out of the ordinary. There was a 416 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: half eating meal of salted button and potatoes in the 417 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: kitchen too, salted button. Yeah, alright, can can I can 418 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: I call you out right now? The whole food thing. Yeah, 419 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: that's that's just like the Mary celesteciful. Oh yeah, that's 420 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: why if you look at if you look at that, 421 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: that's fanciful additions to the story. I don't want people 422 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: to to think that that's really the trou version. Actually, 423 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: if you look at my ride up, if I bolted, 424 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: I bowled all the BS stuff that was like, oh, 425 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 1: I thought that was the stuff that I was supposed 426 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: to be paying attention to. Yeah, yeah, that's the reason 427 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: I bolted it, all right. Yeah. And there was also 428 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: an herb returned chair on the floor indicating that somebody 429 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: had left in a big hurry. The fire was out, 430 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: and apparently about for days the clocks were stopped, indicating 431 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: that nobody been around to wind them. So more, Mr 432 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: Moore search a resident. There were numerous rooms like bedrooms 433 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: for the guys to sleep in and stuff, and I 434 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: found no one there. And I just want to make 435 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: a quick note that we'll be we'll be talking a 436 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: little bit about because because he submitted a written version, 437 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: written testability about what happened on that day, and uh, 438 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: the half eaten meal in the kitchen and the overturned 439 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: chair that was not in his his accounting of that, 440 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 1: so that was definitely tacked on. I was going to say, 441 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: the problem with salted mutton and potatoes is that it's 442 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: a cold meal already, so you can't say, oh, and 443 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: it was cold or it was still steaming maybe before 444 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: the alien subducted and they made him lay some of 445 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: that stuff. Spoiler spoilers. Oh sorry, sorry, I forget you 446 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: heard that. You never heard that. You never heard that, 447 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: you never heard that? Okay, I beck the story. Uh, 448 00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: and you're awake. So so anyways, Mr Morges back to 449 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: the Hesperus and reported what he's seen to the captain. 450 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: The captain told him to get his get his butt 451 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: back there, and sent three volunteers to go back with 452 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 1: him because obviously, I mean, it was a big mystery, 453 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: and they were all a little scared about the whole thing. 454 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: But at the same time, they needed to get the 455 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: lighthouse working, so and Mr Moore had to, like, he 456 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: took a few assistance with him, because obviously I can't 457 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 1: believe in there by himself, because it'd be all creeped out. 458 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: Can you imagine how creep it would be to be 459 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: all by yourself in that lighthouse when three people have 460 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: just disappeared totally, But yeah, send some people along with him. 461 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: But but from a logistical standpoint, I mean, it's something 462 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: we should probably explain, is that it took three people 463 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: to run the lighthouse because at night you've got to 464 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: make sure that it's still burning and maintain that flame. 465 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: And one person cannot stay up all night long, and 466 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: so it was in shifts. You know, I'm sorry, was 467 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: this before the invention of coffee? Yeh, does not keep 468 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: you up all night, as I learned in college. Yeah, 469 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: the it's you know, it's a shift from let's say, 470 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: eight o'clock to midnight, and then the next guy is 471 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: midnight to four, and then the next guy is four 472 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: o'clock to dawn. So it's this it's this weird rotation, 473 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,959 Speaker 1: and they all rotated through so one guy would eventually 474 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: at least one night get almost a full night's sleep, 475 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: but it takes multiple people to run this. Yeah, So anyway, 476 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: so you kind of back with this with the other guys, 477 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: and they look around a little bit and they noticed 478 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: that two of the oil skins and boots were missing. 479 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: So actually there were three sets of oilskins there, one 480 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: for each guy. Like rain jackets that was back in 481 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: the day before they invented gortex. So I think they 482 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: call them oilskins because where they what skin. It's like 483 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: cloth that was like leather. Typically jackets literally oiled up 484 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,439 Speaker 1: and seal oil or whale oil it, you know, so 485 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: it repels the water. It is the old school equivalent 486 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: of a plastic rain jack Okay, I just wasn't sure 487 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: oilskins or whatever they call you put water in. It's 488 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, we we have not gortex, but 489 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: you have waterproof jacketson once a year, you got to 490 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: spray the waterproof. No, it's the same thing. It's just 491 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: that you would literally rub this oil all over it. Sure, 492 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: I was just I couldn't remember if oil skins were 493 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: jackets or if they were like the things you put 494 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: water in. No, no, not a The only thing you 495 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: think skin maybe a wine skin. Sorry everyone, and that 496 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: a whole lot of wine skins on the islands from 497 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: the Middle Ages. Anyways, apologies, Okay, way back to our mystery. 498 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 1: So besides the oil skins and boots that were missing, uh, 499 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: and and all three guys were gone, which one of 500 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: those guys left without his was that his oil skin on? 501 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: Which is weird because, by the way, December December, yeahzing 502 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: cold outside, it's gonna be cold, rainy, nasty. Yeah, I know. 503 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: So that's a mystery. That's an honest to got a mystery. 504 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: Some telling say that a toolbox was also missing, but 505 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: there's there's no obviously obviously not. Yeah. So anyway, they 506 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: they came back and they kept the light going for 507 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: that night, which was December twenty six. They I mentioned 508 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: that they got out there in the six Yeah, I 509 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: think you've covered it. Yeah, I covered it. So that 510 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 1: night they kept the light going and then then the 511 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: next day they spent the day scouring the island for 512 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: any sign of the missing man. Found nothing. And they 513 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: had already obviously seen the eastern landing, so they went 514 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: down and checked out the western landing and they found 515 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: some anomalous things there. It was glowing green as if 516 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 1: the UFO. I mean, okay, soil and green. Yeah, Now 517 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: apparently it's the stains and damage. There was a rock 518 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: that had been dislodge from the cliff above and it 519 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: come down in bast and it was a huge rock, yeah, 520 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: bashed up, you know, tont least. Yeah, and if it 521 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: fell down on the platform where the crane was bent 522 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: up all these cast iron rails and and there, and 523 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: that's something to point out. There was a crane on 524 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: that side, so you I know, the other side you 525 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: said there was the rail line, So it was there 526 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 1: only a rail line on one side and it was 527 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,479 Speaker 1: just a physical crane on the other or there was 528 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: the rail The rail line split off and went to 529 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: both landings, and there was a crane at each landing 530 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: and the crane was to basically hoist supplies out of 531 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: the supply boat, so the supply boat could come and 532 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: get underneath where the crane was, and then they could 533 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: just lift supplies directly off instead of going through the 534 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: whole arduous process of trying to lift them out of 535 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: a boat alongside the dock and heaving North Atlantic seas. 536 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: Instead they could just like grab them straight off the 537 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: boat and lift them straight up. And a lot for 538 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: bigger shipments too. Yeah. Yeah, so so they had so anyway, 539 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: the rail line want to sell that they had quite 540 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: the infrastructure in this little island and the two rail lines, 541 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: so basically two rail lines, two cranes. As you wouldn't 542 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: I think, as you would hope, Yeah, what's the word? 543 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: I want to say, a you know what? But I'd 544 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: say it would be an arduous process. Let say that. Yeah, okay. 545 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: So in addition to that, the other thing that was 546 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: that was wrong was that that they had kept a 547 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: large wooden box that was full of ropes and stuff 548 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: like that lodged in the rocks about forty ft above 549 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: the crane, which would put it about seventy or about 550 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 1: a hundred ten ft above sea level, and that had 551 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 1: been knocked out of his place, and the ropes were 552 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: strewn around the crane, in the rocks around the cran 553 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: wasn't there a buoy that had also been Yeah, there 554 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: was a life buoy, And I'm not sure what they 555 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: mean if actually if that's like one of those rings 556 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: you know you see on ships. No, I think booy 557 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: usually refers to either of the like thing that floats 558 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: in the water right that are like pretty heavy, or 559 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: I guess I've every once in a while I've heard 560 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: like a life boat referred to as a buoy, but 561 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,239 Speaker 1: I think probably they mean like the big heavy thing 562 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: that floats in the water right offshore. I'm not sure 563 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: that they only referred to it was a life buoy, 564 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: and I had always just assumed it was some sort 565 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: of a throwing ring that you could, like that was 566 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: attached to a rope that usually call in life preservers. Yeah, yeah, 567 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: exactly one. But good maybe. I mean this is Scotland. 568 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: I mean they're all messed up. They have a different 569 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: word for everything, okay, Yeah, I mean the trunk is boot, yeah, 570 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: and chips are fries and Frieser chips and they're just 571 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: all screwed up over there, man. Yeah, wa to ostracize 572 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: our friends on the other side. I'm sorry, everybody on 573 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: the other side of the pond. Actually, I love you guys. 574 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: Your blood pudding is my favorite thing in this entire world. Okay, 575 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: So next up in their investigation they look at the 576 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: log book. I did keep a log. I'm sorry, Yeah, 577 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: I just think that would be the first thing I 578 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: would do. I wouldn't. I wouldn't be like, oh, weird 579 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: this this island is kind of torn apart or whatever. 580 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,479 Speaker 1: I would just be like, oh, I wonder what they 581 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: had to say. No, actually, when the last time they 582 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: wrote in this thing? Yeah, I guess what I'm saying 583 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: is next up in my little speech. They probably I 584 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: probably read the log earlier. Okay, all right, Yeah. The 585 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: log mainly had stuff like just anything that happened that 586 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: was worth worthy of note, and things like stuff about 587 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: the weather, the wind, barometer readings, temperature reading, stuff like that. 588 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: The final entries and the log were a little mysterious. 589 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: So December twelve, here's a quote. Gale north by northwest 590 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: sea lashed fury. Never seen such a storm, waves very high, 591 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: tearing at lighthouse, everything ship shape. James Ducott irritable. Later 592 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: storms still raging, winds steady, storm bound, cannot go out, 593 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: ship passing sounding foghorn could see lights of cabin. Ducott quiet, 594 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: MacArthur crying, Sissy. I know, think about you know, I 595 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: think about it is. I'm not I'm not sure what 596 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: kind of a storm this was. But I mean these 597 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: guys were seasoned veterans, like yeah, I think that's a 598 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: good point to bring up. None of them were fresh 599 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: on this kind of work. Who was Who was the 600 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: one that was in charge? It's Ducott, he was He'd 601 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: been doing this work kind of work. He's obviously got 602 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: a really good idea. So I can see quiet. Okay, 603 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: well that makes me he's like another storm. Okay, whatever, 604 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: James Ducott irritable before that, right. Marshall is the one 605 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: keeping these He's the lowest. Yeah, he's the middle guy. 606 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: Marshall is the middle guy. And Marshall is the one 607 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: who's writing in the log. The he's writing this in 608 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: the log? What's this a little strange and in in itself 609 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: because I mean, the log is something that any of 610 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: these guys could read. And that's that's my problem, is 611 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,959 Speaker 1: that the log is for official recording, not my personal diary. 612 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: And this seems like something you know, the eighteen hundreds, Lady, 613 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds. I'm going to take my observations and I'm 614 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: going to write them down, Like that's what this sort 615 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: of seems like. If you would expect a young man, 616 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: let's say, an eighteen year old man of the times, 617 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: he would make these kind of observations in his writing. 618 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: Is for well, you're you're kind of like spoiling my 619 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: whole thing. That doesn't really matter. I was gonna I 620 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: was going to read all these and them portant point 621 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: out that they're all fake. No, no, I'm not saying fake. 622 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's a fake. And then we'll talk 623 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: about talk about whether December thirteen, storm continued tonight when 624 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: shifted west by North, Ducott quiet, MacArthur Prague, later noon 625 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: great daylight me Ducott and MacArthur prayed, and so no 626 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: entry on December fourteen. December fifteenth, there was a single 627 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 1: last line storm ended seacom God is overall who things 628 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: should have been bold. But so anyway, according to a 629 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: guy whose name I can't recall right now, this was 630 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: actually inserted into the story by a pulp fiction magazine 631 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,479 Speaker 1: somewhat later after the facts. So this is all made up. 632 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: And if you look at if you look at the testimony, 633 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: of Joseph Moore. He says nothing whatsoever about any log, 634 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: any mysterious log entries. There's also a report submitted by 635 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: Robert Muirhead, who was a superintendent and the boss of 636 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: all three of those guys he investigated. He went out 637 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: to the island and looked around and and and saw 638 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: firsthand everything there that everybody else saw. He makes no 639 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: mention whatsoever of any mysterious log entries. Yeah, it says 640 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: here last written entries in the log were for December, 641 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: but particulars for fourteen December and of the time of 642 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: extinguishing the light on fifteen December, along with barometer and 643 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: thermometer readings and state of wind taken at nine am 644 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: on fifteen December were noted on the slate for transference 645 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: later to the log. Exactly they had they had it 646 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: so they had a slate board like a blackboard, and 647 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: they would make notes on that and then eventually you 648 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 1: know that somebody would put it into the log. Okay, 649 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: So the last the last actual entry was on nothing. 650 00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: And he says there was nothing unusual. I mean, while 651 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't he doesn't explicitly say that, but clearly if 652 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: there was something unusual he would have written it in 653 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: at And I got to admit that's why every time 654 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: that I was doing the reading on this and I 655 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: would see the log entry section, I ignored it because 656 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: I knew that that kind of writing just didn't make 657 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: sense to be in the long So I'm glad you 658 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: tracked this down, Joe, because that that clears up a 659 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: lot of garbally going oh yeah, that's just yeah. And 660 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: it's a feel like it's like you say, it's not 661 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 1: credible because again, it's like you're writing stuff in about 662 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: your co workers. Some of them might find offensive. MacArthur, 663 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: I understand, was like a tough guy, you know, like 664 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: a seasoned Mariners have a big tough brother. Yea guy 665 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: and if he if he reads that in the log, 666 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: he might be a little angry with you. Well yeah, 667 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 1: I mean that would be the equivalent. Maybe that's what happened. 668 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: Maybe he saw that and he murdered murdered Marshall. I 669 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: was just gonna say, that's the equivalent of today writing 670 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: an email to your boss and copying the person that 671 00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: your bad mouth. Joe is such a journy. He just 672 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: makes stuff up and talk smack about everybody in the breakroom, 673 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: and you know Joe's carbon copied on it. That would 674 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: be the equivalent. I was going to say, it's the 675 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: reply all right, it's the accidental of reply all of like, 676 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: oh this is bunk. Why did this idiot write this stuff? 677 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: We know this is right. He didn't do his job. 678 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: He was taking a bunch of smoke breaks and you 679 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: didn't have time to write the report. Speaking of a 680 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: smoke breaks, we gotta hurry up and finish the so 681 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: I can have a cigarette. Yeah, anyway, where we at 682 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: where we at here? So when they when they when 683 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: they arrived there, they have and like I said, they 684 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: had to look around and they noted that the morning 685 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: routine have been finished. Whenever you finished up to night, 686 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 1: you have to do stuff like you've got to refill 687 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: the fuels, the fueling, you know, extinguish the light, refuel it. 688 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: You've got to clean the glass and all that because 689 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: this is a settling light, it's gonna be a little 690 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: bit smoky, so you've got to clean stuff up. So 691 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: all that stuff have been done, have been taken care of. 692 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: The kitchen had been cleaned, so obviously they cleaned up 693 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: after themselves for for breakfast or whatever. And the days 694 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: of course they were very short, so they must have 695 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: left somewhere between maybe around new time, late morning and sunset, 696 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: basically days of eleven days and right y, yeah, that 697 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 1: didn't happen. Yeah, yeah, so and and when the light 698 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 1: was out in the fifteen so they must have they 699 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: must have disappeared on the fifteen. Well, that makes it. 700 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the clues point directly to that 701 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: time frame, so that makes a lot of sense. Yeah, 702 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,240 Speaker 1: indications are that they might have left in a hurry. 703 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's definitely if if if MacArthur left his behind, 704 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: left his oil skin behind, that would indicate that he 705 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: left in a hurry. But at the same time, he 706 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 1: carefully closed the door to the residents and also closed 707 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 1: the gate outside, which if you left in a hurry, 708 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: doesn't really make a lot of sense. Actually, can I 709 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: can I answer that because I read that and it 710 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: seems like a very odd beus answer to me. There 711 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: was some high winds at the time, And have you 712 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: ever been in a structure or around a fence where 713 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: the gate or the door is unlatched and the wind 714 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: is slamming it back and forth and eventually it will 715 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: slam it shut. And if it's got some kind of 716 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,240 Speaker 1: simple latch on it, it'll latch itself. Yeah. I guess 717 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: that's the only thing, right, is that it depends on 718 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 1: what kind of latch it is. And that's that's that's 719 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 1: why I'm saying, if it's if it's a simple latch, 720 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's a a lever latch that's got some 721 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: kind of camphor on the back side, so it rides 722 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: up and falls into its groove. It's gonna pop up 723 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,240 Speaker 1: and fall in and suddenly the wind has just shut 724 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: the door for you. I mean, this is this is 725 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: things that you you see in in the tornado stories 726 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: from the middle of this country back in the thirties. 727 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: As they talk about the barn doors were ailing back 728 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: and forth and all of a sudden they just slammed shut. 729 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: And it was so strange. It wasn't that strange. It 730 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: was just happened to be that the wind blew in 731 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: a bloom apart and then pull them back together just 732 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: the right time, and everything mats up. I guess my 733 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 1: counter to that would would would be that these guys 734 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: were seasoned. I mean, you know, I I know we're 735 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: about to get into theories here, but that these guys 736 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: were seasoned lighthouse manners. That's the best way I can 737 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 1: pays technicians, if you will. Yeah, you know, in a 738 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: storm like whatever ostensibly may have happened or may not 739 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: have happened, you wouldn't like there would be no reason 740 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: to go out into that, particularly past whatever kind of 741 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: fences onto a docking area. So sure, maybe the fence 742 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: closed itself behind them, But like, the bigger mystery here 743 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,919 Speaker 1: is what the heck could have made them leave their 744 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: totally structurally sound stone lighthouse as like frail human beings 745 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: and these gale wind forces and go out to the 746 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: most dangerous place on the island. Yeah, it's well, it's 747 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: not it's not clear that they actually left and went 748 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 1: out and went out to the landing, because it does 749 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,959 Speaker 1: appear that they may have gone to the landing right, 750 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 1: and but it's not I'm not so sure that they 751 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: left in the middle of the storm conditions. I think 752 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: they left under calum conditions because obviously nobody in his 753 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: right mind would try to go down those steep stairs. 754 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 1: I guess that's fair that they could have left before 755 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,479 Speaker 1: and then the gale would have closed it after. Yeah, 756 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: that's exactly what That's what I was saying, is that 757 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: yes they Okay, we have eleven days between when they 758 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 1: seem to have disappeared and somebody else showed up. Actually, 759 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: and and let's point out eleven days that we're bad 760 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: enough that the relief could not go in those eleven days. 761 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: Well no, no, not necessarily. Okay, let's let's let's go 762 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: back to that, because there are multi doable versions of 763 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 1: the story that say, and you alluded to this a 764 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: little bit, is that they knew something was wrong, but 765 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: they couldn't go out because the sea was so bad. 766 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: But regardless, there were bad seas between thee and when 767 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: they it wasn't all sunny sunny night. Yes, there were storms. 768 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 1: So we're gonna ignore the whole hyper bowl of they 769 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: couldn't get out there and knew something was wrong. Fun, 770 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 1: We're just going to hone in on the fact that 771 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: there was bad weather. So if somebody did leave in 772 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: a hurry, that would explain why the gate and the 773 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,879 Speaker 1: door were closed, all right, willing to go there. Yeah, 774 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: So anyway, and as most tellings of this big Mystery conclude, 775 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: why would they what caused them so much terror that 776 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: they fled and you know, one of them missing, you know, 777 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: not taking as oil skin in the YadA, YadA, YadA. 778 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: So there the mystery leaves off. Well, you know, we 779 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: don't know, but it's time to work. Got ourselves into 780 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 1: the theories. Sweet, Okay, it's the number one. How did 781 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: this go so long? Yeah? Ide the number one actually 782 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 1: because the rest of our shows aren't long. Yeah. I 783 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: think most of the major sides for you guys. Okay, 784 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: some of the theories that are out there, I like 785 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: to have some of the really silly theories, like giant 786 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: gigantic birds snatching them off the off the rocks giants, 787 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: Well that's from Yeah, calm down, don't look at me 788 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: like that. Want have the giant gray Beard? Is that? 789 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: How how you're getting the Gandalf reference? Reference? Reference? I 790 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 1: like reference Joe, Yeah, please continue? Because about this UFO abduction. 791 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,399 Speaker 1: So you're laughing, but I kind of like it. Yeah, 792 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 1: you always like the UFO no matter what the instances. 793 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: It's because I'm fall yeah, apologist. But yeah, somebody says 794 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: on Facebook that that's a real word, and now you're 795 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: throwing it at me constantly, just constantly, constantly. All of 796 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: our everything correspond everything. Yeah, every email I get from 797 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 1: devon ufologist from the from the desk of the ufologist. 798 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 1: I don't you've changed that to the tag on your emails. 799 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: You gotta put that in mine. It's gonna be like, 800 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, ufologist, future ologist, something like that, entomologists, zoologists, 801 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: crypto zoologists. Yeah, sorry, the UFO dust and I would buy. 802 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 1: But there's like no little scorch marks from there from 803 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: their rocket exhaust. How do you know the rain washed 804 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: it away? Well, I was going to actually kill the plants. 805 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: They wouldn't know. They want to know there's something when 806 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: they cerci there's no crop rings. Yeah, no crop rings? Yeah, 807 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: of no crops. So can we move on? Yeah? Okay. 808 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: Another theory one of the men maybe went a little crazy, 809 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,359 Speaker 1: which is actually possible. And the circumstances like that, when 810 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 1: you're cooped up for a month or two with a 811 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: couple of other guys. They hadn't been there that long. Yeah, 812 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 1: they've only been there like a month. And how long 813 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,280 Speaker 1: had they been that How long had they worked together? 814 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if these guys had spent a lot 815 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,879 Speaker 1: of time together or not. I don't really know how 816 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 1: they cycled and rotated people spent time together. But they 817 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: had all done this kind of work exactly. It wasn't 818 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 1: none of them were green hordes, yeah exactly. And they 819 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: knew how to deal with it, and they knew how 820 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 1: to not take stuff personally and not go you know, 821 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: and how to be cooped up for weeks on and 822 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,720 Speaker 1: with a couple of other guys crying in the corner. Yeah, 823 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, so many. But that is it's there that 824 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,280 Speaker 1: perhaps one of them went crazy and killed the others 825 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: and then threw himself off the cliff into the sea. 826 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 1: And you gotta amit. I mean, that's possible. It's not why, 827 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: that's a real stretch. Yeah, another possibility. And this this 828 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: relates to the Mary Soul last also and also the 829 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: Dancing plague, Yeah exactly. And that is that ride that 830 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: ryol that which I forgot the name of. It was 831 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: too lazy there actually go out and look up, but 832 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: that ryl. They have got to hallucinations and all kinds 833 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: of weird stuff, so would explain a lot. Actually, it's 834 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 1: possible that they ate something that drove them drove down 835 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: a little little nuts to the point where they were like, 836 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: you know, just off having a little fun dancing on 837 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 1: the edge of the cliff and then whoops, uh yeah, 838 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 1: dance party in an end. Yeah. Actually, and you know, actually, 839 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,919 Speaker 1: another theory that I thought but I forgot to write down, 840 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: was well, let's again, let's get back to that picture 841 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: of those steep stairs with no handrail or anything like that, 842 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: and they're all just sort of heading down of the 843 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 1: land and do some maintenance or do something, maybe fishing 844 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: or whatever. And suddenly the guy in the back of 845 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: the line just trips over his shoe lags you know 846 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: that there's a head or it takes the other two 847 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: with them and they go off the cliff. Actually, and 848 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,439 Speaker 1: I there's two things that I'm gonna say here. One 849 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 1: I could see in a situation like that at that 850 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 1: time where for safety you would tie each other together. 851 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: So I tie myself to Joe and Oh ties himself 852 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: to Devon, so that if one of us slips, the 853 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 1: other can anchor. So I could see the first guy slipping, 854 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,280 Speaker 1: dragging the next guy over, who drags the third guy over, 855 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 1: except I and correct me if this is not right, Joe. 856 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 1: Everything that I saw was saying that the standard protocol 857 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 1: was one man was always in the lighthouse. And the 858 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: other two could go where they wanted. Is that correct 859 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: as as far as you could find and you're from 860 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: the board that you were looking at. Yeah, Yeah, my 861 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: understanding is yeah, that was standard operating procedure. But I'm 862 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: not I never got total clarity on whether that was 863 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: seven or if that was only during White House operation hours. Ah, 864 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 1: that's a good point to make, I have to that. 865 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: One is that only two of the oil skins were missing, 866 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 1: So two guys could have been down there, right, something 867 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: could have gone wrong and the other dude like ran 868 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: out to try and help them and unsuccessful. Right. The 869 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: other point that I would make is that I feel 870 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: that it would be counterintuitive on steps like that to 871 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 1: anchor each like each other, right that Like, actually the 872 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: right way to do that would be one person goes 873 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,280 Speaker 1: all the way down and once they're off the stairs completely, 874 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: the next person comes down. To see that with ladders 875 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 1: in like in theater tech stuff for instance, you don't 876 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, if there's a fall hazard, you don't rope 877 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: yourself together, you do it completely separately. Yeah, I would 878 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: take that to make a lot more sense. Yeah, I 879 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 1: mean definitely, if I was walking down that stairway, the 880 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 1: something got right behind me. I'd be dude, back off, lea, 881 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 1: this is this is the wrong time to pull the 882 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: and startle somebody. Maybe that's what happened. I got you, 883 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 1: joke gone wrong splash. Yeah so okay. And also it 884 00:47:53,920 --> 00:48:00,280 Speaker 1: could have been a banana appeal on the stairs. Yeah okay. 885 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: So next Therey ghosts, and apparently there were there were. 886 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is nineteen Hunters, so there's still people 887 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,919 Speaker 1: who are believed in ghosts. In factly there's still people 888 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 1: to believe in that stuff these days. Please explain this 889 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 1: to me, Arthur Conan Doyle. Yeah, yeah, there were, but 890 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 1: some people have Some people apparently believed that the islands 891 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 1: were haunted, and you were called you you said that 892 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: I told that story about the shoppers bringing their sheep over, 893 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,319 Speaker 1: but they wouldn't spend the night, So there was there 894 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: was there was something some who said that the quote 895 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 1: phantoms of the Seven Hunters and that and the phantoms 896 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 1: of the Seven Hunters. The Seven Hunters were the other 897 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 1: name for those seven islands once they were called the 898 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 1: Seven Hunters. I personally believe that people didn't stay there 899 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: overnight because it sucked. Yeah, probably that too, And there 900 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: was no rest, worst vacation ever in the rain. But yes, 901 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: but there were something that claimed that the phantoms of 902 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,399 Speaker 1: the Seven Hunters somehow lured or frightened the men into 903 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 1: going over the cliffs. Another one was that they rode away, 904 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: and why they would do that, I don't know. It 905 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,240 Speaker 1: seems kind of insane to me. But supposedly, and again 906 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 1: I'm about a d percent sure that this isn't more 907 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 1: made up stuff. Shipping in the fair wind was passing 908 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: the area the night of the fifteen, and the crew 909 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: of the fairwe claimed was seen a quote ghostly longboat unquote. Yeah, 910 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:14,879 Speaker 1: I know, bunk. There were three men rowing the boat 911 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 1: who were dressed in heavy rain gear and who reportedly 912 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: had faces with quote the color of bone unquote. So 913 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: the crew of the fairwold called out to the men 914 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: in the boat and blasted the horn, but the men 915 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: of the longboat ignored. Obviously, we can disprove this immediately 916 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:34,240 Speaker 1: because only two of them had their heavy grain gear exactly. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, 917 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: well that could have been It could have been some 918 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: other lighthouse keepers from the next island down, I guess, 919 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:43,400 Speaker 1: but yeah, because there are so many lighthouses on those islands. Yeah, Okay, 920 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 1: so we're not gonna necessary We're not We're gonna kind 921 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:47,879 Speaker 1: of discount that. In fact, I'm almost not to present 922 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:51,959 Speaker 1: certain that either some news some enterprising newsman made this up, 923 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 1: or novelists made this up, or the crew of the 924 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: fair One made it up. I really wish that newsmen 925 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 1: in the nineteen hundreds could realize how their sensational headlines 926 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: would just screw everything up for everybody later on to 927 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: trying to find out the real story. No, because we 928 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:12,759 Speaker 1: wouldn't have a show much easier, and you have to 929 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: wait through so much garbage news been a news century 930 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: or pretty much doing the same thing crap. Yeah, so 931 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,399 Speaker 1: people people in the twenty century, you're gonna be saying 932 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: the same thing. They're gonna be having that little podcast. 933 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: I said, God knows what it will be called. It'll 934 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 1: be called it'll be something from in the New Order world, 935 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 1: the New World Orders language. Yeah. Yeah, hello, let's just 936 00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:43,760 Speaker 1: thinking sideways. You're a government sponsored podcast that the goal 937 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 1: is Yeah, pretty much alright, Next sory reef madness. I 938 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 1: thought that was the bread bold different Yeah, mans so 939 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 1: discovered him on the men's effect were No, I'm putting 940 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 1: that Joe you're totally making this up as I'm actually 941 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:17,320 Speaker 1: reading your text. This is so you should be approving 942 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 1: the shows. We would red light a lot of this text. Okay, Okay, 943 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: you guys saying you think we can rule out re FORMID. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 944 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 1: what's your last one? Here? Last one is that they 945 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,720 Speaker 1: went down to one of the landings for one reason 946 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 1: or another um and a big rogue sneaker wave came 947 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: in and nabbed him all and drug wants to see you. 948 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: That's crazy talk, Yeah, that's crazy talk. I have a theory. Yeah, 949 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 1: it was the doctor. Could have been. I think there 950 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,920 Speaker 1: was a colonel. It was a colonel on the study 951 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: with the candlestick. Now, obviously the doctor came with the 952 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 1: tartist that doctor, Okay, obviously, I mean they disappeared without 953 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: a trade. He would have come to save them. He 954 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 1: destroyed the cybermen that were on the island underneath. They 955 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 1: knew a bet it was be Cyberman because the Dark 956 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: List You're just too easy, So it's got to be 957 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,479 Speaker 1: Cyberman this time. Maybe it was the lizard people again, 958 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 1: lizard people freaking hate the lizard people. Always the lizard people. Okay, 959 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: so what what do you you you're you're furiously going 960 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 1: through notes. I'm looking at well, I'm looking through to 961 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:30,919 Speaker 1: Mr Muir has report here, and obviously metal men were 962 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: not on it. Yeah, no, no, because the doctor took 963 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:36,799 Speaker 1: care of it. Well, he did say, he did say 964 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: in his report that Joseph Moore told him that the 965 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: only time he was familiar with these guys, and the 966 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 1: only time they put on their oil skins, was when 967 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 1: they went down to one of the landings, which would 968 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: indicate to me that a couple of them went down 969 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,720 Speaker 1: to one of the landings, most likely the Western Landing, 970 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 1: which is apparently a lot of brew ha ha happened. Yeah, 971 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 1: and um, so that would tend to support the whole 972 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: idea that they went down there to do a little 973 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:08,360 Speaker 1: maintenance or inspect the damage that had occurred. Although you know, 974 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: again there's no mention of any entry in the log 975 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 1: about the damage that occurred, so maybe it occurred even afterwards, 976 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,320 Speaker 1: who knows, Maybe they were down there for some other reason, 977 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: But that would lend me to believe that a couple 978 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: of them went down there to the landing to do 979 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 1: something and then the other guy left for some reason 980 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 1: of chas him down there, leaving his oilskins behind, And 981 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 1: it might have been it might have been that the 982 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 1: weather was actually halfway decent on that day. It didn't 983 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: feel a need for it. He just left without oil skins. 984 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,279 Speaker 1: Who knows. But then Mr big sneaker wave comes in, 985 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 1: you know, and they're on the front of that wave. 986 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 1: Is I gett you on a surfboard? So I think 987 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,759 Speaker 1: that's the only h The other thing that was that 988 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 1: I thought was a possibility is that perhaps there was 989 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: an earthquake, because remember there was a big one ton 990 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: of stone that was dis large. Imagine if imagine if 991 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,840 Speaker 1: you're down there on this landing and a big earthquake 992 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,880 Speaker 1: happens along, or maybe you're actually walking down to steep 993 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 1: precarious stairs down there, the earthquake comes along, boom boom, boom, 994 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 1: you know, getting knocked off into the sea. So I 995 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 1: was thinking that it's possible they had an earthquake. I 996 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 1: guess I suspect that, um, you know, twenty miles is 997 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,760 Speaker 1: a long way for light to travel in those days, 998 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: not so far away for an earthquake. Yeah, so that 999 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 1: you know, people who are keeping more meticulous logs would 1000 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 1: have said, oh, there was an earthquake, particularly if they 1001 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,720 Speaker 1: were a coastal town or shipping docks because the because 1002 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: of tsunami problems, and they knew about tsunami's back then, 1003 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: so it wasn't you know, they would that would have 1004 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 1: been something that they would have said. Oh and also 1005 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 1: there was this weird earthquake that happened. Yeah, yeah, so yeah, 1006 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,239 Speaker 1: I know that's that's that kind of like makes that 1007 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 1: theory a little tender. But yeah, so, but I guess 1008 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: that's totally It's possible that that rock just gave way. 1009 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 1: I mean happens sometimes. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean 1010 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,000 Speaker 1: it could have been I mean wave action. I mean 1011 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:06,680 Speaker 1: it does appear. I mean, for example, that box which 1012 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 1: was stored sea level was washed out by a wave. 1013 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 1: So it sounds like occasionally waves came in, came in 1014 00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: in some waves, some big sneaker anomalous wave came in 1015 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 1: and and nabbed that box and knocked it out. And 1016 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: even if it didn't necessarily get the guy that that's happening, occasionally, 1017 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 1: that rock is going to be getting pounded on. It's 1018 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: gonna get loosen up sooner or later. Over time, it's 1019 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 1: just gonna just go. And if they had the bad 1020 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 1: luck to be down there underneath it on the landing 1021 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 1: or by the crane or whatever. Then you know they 1022 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,120 Speaker 1: could have been knocked off by it. They could have 1023 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: been killed by it and knocked off. So and of 1024 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,760 Speaker 1: course days went by, it rained a lot in the meantime, 1025 00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 1: so all the blood got all the blood and everything 1026 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 1: got washed off. Okay, so do you guys want to 1027 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: expound in that last series anymore? Well? YouTube is that 1028 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 1: kind of where you two are? I'm sticking with reefer madness, 1029 00:55:55,600 --> 00:56:02,400 Speaker 1: and I'm okay. I actually have got to say that 1030 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,879 Speaker 1: when I was doing the reading, I think that, as 1031 00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: Joe put it, the sneaker wave is the most likely theory, 1032 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: and and I have I have some pretty good reasoning 1033 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:17,239 Speaker 1: behind it, because I was reading accounts of people who 1034 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 1: had gone to that island, and anybody who hasn't yet 1035 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: take the time look at the pictures. As Joe said, 1036 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 1: it's an itsy bitsy landing with a sharp staircase, and 1037 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:33,320 Speaker 1: there were people who were visiting that and it's calm seas, 1038 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:34,879 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they look out and they 1039 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:40,360 Speaker 1: see a big wave rolling in and crashing against the 1040 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: side of the island for no reason. Just I don't 1041 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 1: know where giant wave. Let's fair for a reason, but 1042 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,080 Speaker 1: not for I discernible from humans. Right, it's a it's 1043 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 1: a rogue wave, and it is a huge sixty foot 1044 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,959 Speaker 1: crest that it causes. And this guy watched it and 1045 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 1: he said something to the person that was working. They're like, oh, yeah, 1046 00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,839 Speaker 1: that happens from time to time, and we've almost lost 1047 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 1: some guys. You just gotta be watched out for those 1048 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 1: and and hang on, which basically think if they don't 1049 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,759 Speaker 1: know that's coming. And they're down on that landing where 1050 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 1: the crane is and they're getting ready for the relief ship, 1051 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: and then the last guy who's up top all of 1052 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:23,040 Speaker 1: a sudden looks out and sees that wave and goes 1053 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 1: booking outside to say, hey, you guys, get out of there. 1054 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 1: Hang on this wave. These waves, the one that they 1055 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 1: talked about, it crashed at the sea level is just 1056 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: below the landing and they said that it when it 1057 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 1: hit the water was seventy feet above sea level. Okay, 1058 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:47,960 Speaker 1: that's a huge amount of water to be coming across 1059 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: a ten foot landing. You can't hold onto anything, You're 1060 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 1: gonna get sucked out. And the poor soul who is 1061 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:56,920 Speaker 1: who whichever one it is that's running to tell his friends, 1062 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 1: probably can't yell from the top. He's got a hoof 1063 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 1: down the stairs part way to yell at him, so 1064 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 1: now he's getting sucked up into. That's what makes me 1065 00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:11,920 Speaker 1: think that it's the road wave. It's just because there's 1066 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 1: reports of these crazy calm seas all of a sudden 1067 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 1: road wave out of nowhere, just you know, fifty forty 1068 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 1: thirty seventy feet high, just washes everything out. That's what 1069 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: That's what makes me inclined to believe it's that. Yeah, 1070 00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 1: it probably is, although it's still a little bit of 1071 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 1: a head scratcher because these guys were very experienced and 1072 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: they knew that the sea could do stuff like this, 1073 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 1: but they're not used to that particular area to know 1074 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 1: what to look out for. The sea is different. They 1075 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: were new to that particular spot. Maybe they just weren't expecting, yeah, 1076 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 1: I mean, or they weren't paying attention. Oh thank god, 1077 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: the release ship is going to be here. I can 1078 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 1: see my wife, I can get off this bloody island. 1079 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:54,960 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. Yeah, you know, I mean, there's a 1080 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 1: whole host of reasons why they may not have seen 1081 00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: it now, It's like it's it's not surprising at all. 1082 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 1: It's what is a little surprising. I said, all three 1083 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 1: of them were lost. It's not surprising that one of 1084 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: them got swept away, but all three at the same time. 1085 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: It's like, wow, you know that is a little shocking. 1086 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 1: I maintain it was the doctor. Okay, the doctor. Fine, 1087 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 1: that is that is a very sound theory. That's why 1088 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 1: I said it. Okay, okay, So Devin selves a mystery, 1089 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 1: I told you, all right, So that concludes our mystery. 1090 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 1: If you have any thoughts on this you want to 1091 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,959 Speaker 1: share with us, please send us an email at Thinking 1092 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: Sideways Podcast at gmail dot com.

Uh, there's 1106 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 1: a lot of mysteries out there, and even listener suggested 1107 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 1: ones suggested ones I've usually heard of before, but this 1108 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 1: particularly one I had actually not heard of. Had you 1109 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 1: guys heard of the particular one. I think that I 1110 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:35,880 Speaker 1: may have come across it once, but I just breathed 1111 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 1: by it because I I think when I came across 1112 01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 1: was kind of a Merry Celest style version of it, 1113 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 1: and so I just never gave it any thoughts. So 1114 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,240 Speaker 1: I'm glad it was suggested because there was a lot 1115 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 1: more meat to this than I realized. Yeah, we're rocking 1116 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 1: the listeners suggestions these days, so we better we better 1117 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 1: like get some more suggestions from you guys so that 1118 01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: we can rebuild our database of running out and we 1119 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: don't want have to go out and find our own mystery. 1120 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: We don't want to do that. I actually, you know, 1121 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: I go out and I just do goog stuff like 1122 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:15,960 Speaker 1: lamest unsolved mystery. Steve is laughing, but I think this 1123 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: is actually what he dies. Yeah, really obviously really obvious 1124 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 1: unsolved mysteries stuff like that, solved unsolved mystery because I 1125 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,920 Speaker 1: started dot com Yeah, originally was minding this little vein 1126 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 1: which we call on Google like unsolved mysteries, and well 1127 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 1: that leads you to that, that leads you to the 1128 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:37,520 Speaker 1: same websites every single time.
