    “The Secret” at 13:50 is actually a book titled “The Secret: A Treasure Hunt” which was published in the 80s with creepy drawings and poems leading to buried artifacts. The author has died and even the illustrator doesn’t know anything about how his drawings could be useful. Only 3 out of 10 or so have been found to this day.

      The one episode of Expedition Unknown that had the 3rd one solved the illustrator at least pointed some things out, like how the word "Boston" is in the image for it, so I'm sure he knows some things.

    There’s a documentary explaining the Elisa Lamm situation. Long story short, she suffered from depression, schizophrenia (brought on by other mental illnesses), and she was prescribed heavy meds to take each day. She was known by her family to occasionally stop taking meds, and she would see figures that scared her, which prompted her to try and hide / fight her way to a perceived “safe zone” (hiding under the bed etc.).
    When her body as discovered, the room she was staying in revealed she had stopped taking her meds for DAYS. Not to mention her previous roommate reported extremely odd behavior as well as hotel staff witnessing it also. It was later determined that she was suffering a psychotic episode and she probably thought the water tank was a “safe zone,” and she hid in there.
    This is further backed by the maintenance man discovering her body first with the hatch to the tank wide open; Elisa wouldn’t have been able to latch it shut from the outside, but a suspected killer would have almost certainly latched her shut to guarantee her doom.

      When you see the full elevator security cam footage of ElisaLam followed into the elevator “alone” , and then key points during the footage showing someone in a military mirror/refraction/invisible suit touching her, choking her etc you realize this woman was a victim of a 3 letter agency/chinese experiment or fear creating psyop, who wanted to try out new classified tech in a real life scenario on a actual human being who had her own mental health issues to impede her mind on what occurred.
      Also who would believe a “crazy person” or mentally ill person if the victim DID catch on to what was actually happenening? Also a person of logical sound mind would far more likely figure out something was “OFF” about the physical manifestations accosting her physically, where a person off their meds who may be delusional when doing so, would much more likely have this traumatic event to present and appear to the senses as a part of her delusion possibly, with the blurring of the lines of reality & fantasy.
      There are objective facts in the case that CONFIRMS she could 100% NOT have physically ended up in that secured rooftop water tower/tank on her own volition.
      Mirror/light refraction suits have been tested in the military for years and there are videos online of US military using these suits to look invisible and walk up in full view of an enemy soldier and be “invisible” to the naked eye. There is psychological and biological evidence too as to why the human eye and brain are tricked into being blind of something that the sensory system does not even rationally think exists, based on belief, thought, etc. There are even video tests online showing government contracted corporations that show a man using a mirror blanket/shield disappearing and reappearing when he envelops himself in the forest.
      There are good AND bad actors running different levels/layers of CIA/FBI/ATF/NSA, etc etc who experiment on animals, people, children, biowarfare, etc an do things underground away covertly from others or in another country that is protecting this stuff.
      I think animal/human, cloning animals (Dolly the sheep/goat) has advanced so much since the 1990’s, and earlier after WW2, that unethical experiments have been mostly outsourced from accountable government arms legally to allow this stuff to continue in a race with opposing nations doing the same or similiar things.
      Even Missing 411 stories of people disappearing out in the wilderness or national parks likely has ties to controlling resources, areas of strategic value, and keeping regular people from discovering things.
      Hollowed out mines, underground caverns & tunnels near disappearances, combined with possible people dressed in animal costumes at night or animal/human hybrids or android/robotic costumed wolfmen, make it all the more conspiratorial.
      A child or hiker could easily disappear in seconds if some agency wanted to create fear, new myths of some strange animal using a mirror/invisible suit to hide the approach & retreat of the kidnapper agent taking a child down a hidden tunnel entrance nearby the location of disappearance.
      …Or it could be Aliens from another planet lmao, which is FAR less likely the case.

    My thoughts on the Giant Theory: In the Bible, Goliath was around 10 feet tall if you estimate based on the lengths of his equipment. This is not far-fetched since the tallest Man currently is 8 Feet almost 9. The difference between Giants and just really tall Humans, is that the really tall Humans are tall because of genetic errors & rare diseases, thus being pretty weak, but Giants are strong and athletic, which is why Goliath was able to wear such heavy armor and wield his heavy and huge equipment. Could be that the “Giant” gene died over the ages.

      He was around 9’4. I did a fun project a few years ago where I made an interpretation of his sword based on artwork and Bronze Age swords from his region. It ended up being a one handed short sword that is 5’ long. Another fun thing to point out is that David picked up 5 stones because Goliath had 4 brothers and David was going to kill them all.

    Didn’t see anybody mention this so thought I’d bring it up, I believe The Secret May refer to a treasure hunt book created by Byron Preiss in 1982. Twelve treasure boxes were located all throughout the United States, and the book contains ridiculously cryptic clues about their locations. Only three of the boxes have ever been found, and the rest may be lost to time due to physical transformations of landscapes. Not sure if I am the first to mention this, but just thought I’d throw it out there.

      when it is a theory people theorise that these groups of people are coming together to do this white each other
      If the group of people actually exist or not as a whole or it’s found out that a group does in fact have motives then, the story would become a conspiracy fact,

Since then, 3 of the treasures have actually been found - one a year after The Secret was published, the second 22 years after that and the third 15 years after that. The man who discovered the last one invited Josh Gates to film his attempt for an episode of Expedition Unknown so we actually have it documented.

    Watching this whole series from beginning to end is a great way to demonstrate how conspiracy theories operate by taking a starting point that sounds "reasonable" and then stretches it beyond alll logic or reason in tiny, incremental steps so before you know it you're believing that Reptilians are controlling the government. The final video especially highlights this, as Wendigoon frequently says "this is a natural conclusion of theory X/encompasses theories X, Y, and Z which I mentioned in an earlier tier."
