I’m from Cape Town South Africa and I remember hearing about this everyone hated the mother(kidnapper) and people were upset cause what MrBallen isn’t saying in the video is that Miche pretty much sided with her kidnapper well after she was arrested
@@crystalgemgirl731 It's not Stockholm Syndrome. Stockholm is a mental condition that develops as a result of an event like a kidnapping which implies the victim is able to comprehend what's happening to them. Micha was kidnapped shortly after she was born and therefor wouldn't have been able to comprehend much of anything.
Crazy thing is, this kinda happened to me. I wasn't kidnapped, but I did go to school with my sister and was close friends with her without knowing she was my sister. Sadly I kinda found out too late so we don't talk.
@@BareBandSubscription long story short my mom did some digging and found all of my brothers and sisters. Also I never reached out to her because I’ve never felt compelled to. It might be messed up but I just don’t really have any interest in meeting them.
I honestly kinda like the last story, because the "bad guy" of the story wasn't evil just sad and made a mistake, and obviously stealing another person's baby is a huge mistake that you should never make but I mean at least the only reason she stole her was cause she wanted a baby, they still treated her well and all that, i like it cause i think it's the only picture in these vids with a happy ending for everyone involved, cause now both families have her as her daughter, it's weirdly wholesome if you think about it
“That python wasn’t that big” bruh ik it’s just a photo but do you understand how big a 23 FOOT snake is? That’s fucking HUGE, when I heard how big it was I was horrified that’s literally in my top 5 nightmares of all time lmao
You guys are great! I've been binge watching your reactions and enjoying your thoughts and insights. A suggestion on a more personal note, you both could do a world of good for yourselves and one another, if you consciously work on having patience enough to let each other finish what you have to say and listen to one another. Once one person finishes then you can respond to what they said and give your own input. I have had that issue, many of us have I'm not criticizing you! I'm a talker, I know how it goes! It's a habit and me and others end up talking over each other and neither of us really hear what the other is fully saying. I think that makes us all talk even more, wanting to be heard, interrupting without thinking, it's not helpful though. But it's a habit that it can be broken. I personally have to stop myself, take a breath, focus on what the other person is saying so they feel heard, then wait and say what I have to say. I have adhd so this can be a challenge but it can be done! Trust me, it'll help you all with communication big time. Not just for reactions but in real time and daily life with friends family, coworkers, etc. It's chanted the way I interact, for the better. Just my two cents. I hope everyone's weekend has been good! ❤
You delivered that beautifully. I feel the same way but don’t want to point it out just yet. They seem like such a lovely couple and I am a fan but they do interrupt each other h other a lot and it doesn’t help us your subscribers and some will eventually stop watching if we have to wade through their constant interrupting each other. The wife is a little more patient but you said that beautifully. They are young though and still growing. Beautiful couple.
Id understand Micha staying in contact with her "dad" since he genuinely didn't know but the "'mum"... Lets hope Micha kid never gets taken from her and raised by another person. Lets hope she still feels that same love.. I really dont care what anyones reasons are for kidnapping kids... you're trash. Its not grey. Its black and white. I hope that "mum" suffers greatly. Shes a terrible human being.
Woah…I just got into MrBallen videos and I saw this one the other day. The picture of the guy that was eaten by the snake was/is blurred out now. I definitely got shocked actually seeing it in this year old reaction 😅.
The Pythong one is most likely an urban tail , very rare for a snake to actualy swallow a human let alone an dult, also snakes dont break your bones when constricting , so if he were found in a snake where did that bit come from?
I’m confused by this story. If the selfie picture was enough to allow Misha’ biological parents to identify her easily, how did they not recognize her when she met them personally. The two sisters were best friends and Misha knew her sister’s parents well. I’ve never known best friends that never met each others parents and if Misha personally knew her sister’s parents then they have met many times. So how is this explained??
Child that story of Miché was wild
@@kimson305 child my bad, imma fix it
What else do you expect from south Africa lol

I mean it’s understandable, it really is complex but overall it’s understandable n I wouldn’t blame my kidnapper tha much if it were me
Ah, Stockholm Syndrome...
@@crystalgemgirl731 I don't know, I feel like most people can't switch off all that love and emotion towards the kidnapper on a dime.
@@baishihua Yuuuuup

15:31 loved the nodding there! Lol.
1st picture broke my heart especially the 11:41 picture💔💔

Does she not know you’re siblings?
@@BareBandSubscription probably not
@@IDonnysWrld
If you don’t mind me asking, why didn’t you ever reach out to her and tell her? And how did you discover you were siblings?

I hope there's some way you two can reconnect in the future man
They made a Netflix series based on the last story called Blood and Water, probably one of the better shows on there
Was not expecting my country to be here on the last story 😭🇿🇦

damn that last last one could be a movie and novel she better make bank lucky it wasn't to bad but crazy as shit
yeah, it is called "blood and water" or based on the story at least.
Wow... no follow up on Miguel?
I can’t imagine losing my mom like that. He must have felt so guilty for wanting to get his bike back. Poor guy.
I love my mom to death if I found out she kidnapped me, I will still keep our relationship.

27:02 had me deaddddd. That was my reaction. I thought he was gon say 8th and at most 10th grade
I mean if they were 20-24 and friends it’s normal but 13-14 and 17-18 idk..
Id understand Micha staying in contact with her "dad" since he genuinely didn't know but the "'mum"... Lets hope Micha kid never gets taken from her and raised by another person. Lets hope she still feels that same love..
