We have a life-ish sized skeleton that glows in the dark. It’s stored hanging from a loop on the top of its head in a utility cupboard. A few tradies have opened that cupboard with a “WTF?” If you’ve got to have skeletons in your closet, make sure they glow in the dark.
Not a skeleton but one of the jobs I worked on, the homeowner thought it would be funny to tape an outline of his wife on the floor like the chalk line on the crime shows. Freaked me right the heck out before I realized it was a prank.
Oh c'mon people. *Take care of your pets!* I don't understand why some people just have pets, sometimes an absurd number of pets, just to neglect them.
I have quite a few pets, but they all get taken care of by me and my family. (I'm 21, and I live with my parents and sister) I can't understand not taking care of your pets, even if you have a lot of them.
A few of them are even have physical or psychological issues, like one of our cats we think was an outdoor cat who was abused, as he flinches sometimes when you try to pet him. We also have a tiny cat whose parents were siblings, so she has a few issues regarding health. (She's far too small to get her fixed, and she's a polydactel. On one foot, her fifth toe (the one between her extra toe and the rest of her toes) digs in since it doesn't shed properly.)
I'm a gardener in England. One of my elderly customers neighbour had a greenhouse which was *full* of weed one year. I mean like the greenhouse was a solid block of weed - I don't think the guy expected it to grow that big. I'd noticed the smell loooong before it was visible above the fence, but eventually my customer asked if it was weed and I confirmed it was. He was totally cool and unbothered by it, and just told me a story about how a house two doors down in the other direction had been raided by the police for having a large scale grow going on some years prior. A few weeks later the weed was gone. I assume the guy either got scared or realised he'd messed up his grow by getting it that big, because it wasn't flowering yet so there's no way he'd harvested it. Bit of a shame, really. I have a friend who used to live in central London, and she had a neighbour who grew massive plants in his tiny garden which were visible to more than a dozen other houses, and nobody cared. Most people aren't bothered by someone minding their own business growing a bit of weed while being a decent person.
"The whole state of oklahoma is the middle of nowhere." Goshdarnet, that got me, and ill be darned if it isnt the flippin truth. But wow, i wasn't expecting the eagle
I have to wonder why they had a bald eagle now I know if you’re Native American you can have a bald eagle feather but as far as I know, it’s extremely against the law they even own one
The most interesting one by far is how judge was completely nude I think you should have waited till you got caught doing something illegal 😅then you could bring it up during the trial and see what happens 😂
This is my mom's coworker story. They worked at an extended stay hotel. It was pretty common to see drugs, sex workers and the like on these properties. One night a pretty nervous 20+ year old checked in. After a few days no one had seen him or heard from him or even seen him leave room. My mom's friend went to clean the room. She opened the doors to a horror show. Blood sprayed all on the walls,blankets,beds, and even ceiling. She was freaked out and went around the bed to find the kid with his throat cut nearly ear from ear. That is when he gasped,spraying out more blood towards her. She screamed and called the police and ambulance. She was told to take a 10 min break and go back to cleaning
Jesus Christ, we not longer than that to collect ourselves as ER nurses when things like that come in, and we're trained for that and half expecting things like it. that is NOT what you expect to find when cleaning a hotel or motel room. unless it's a motel in a really, really sh!tty area
@@LMCorvinus You have coworkers and bosses that have actually seen it and felt how rough it is, a manager/boss that never sees it has zero empathy or understanding besides "theres work left to do"
10 min to collect myself ?!!! - I quit ! - 🥶🥶🥶 The manager must be a freaking psychopath when he genuinely thinks that 10 min is enough to get that picture processed in the head. The second reason to quit : Blood is biohazard. It should be cleaned by a specialist.
@@katarinatibai8396I don’t think they cleaned that room right after that considering it’s a crime scene now. In the ER we can’t touch patients room after we’re done working on them if they have some kind of assault crime involved.
15:31 And THAT'S how you make a good joke. A positive/neutral story and the fact you rarely make jokes means it completely sucker-punched me in the best way.
I have great sympathy for those whose job takes them into hoarder houses. My father was a hoarder. When I left, he'd filled a 4 car garage and about 4 sheds. When I had to go back there after my mother's funeral, there was a narrow track from the front door through the living room, the kitchen and the laundry to the bathroom. Before my mother died, there would have been just enough room beside that track for her rented hospital bed. My sister inherited the house. She too is a hoarder.
splash of cold water while they're sleeping for an undersparked video is like opening a gift on a christmas morning. But even better, finding out the gift is from your father who left to go get the milk 5 years ago 👍
I'm not sure if I'd consider FedoraZen230 talking about his views about women in a video good education but as someone who likes to snort the snow with my doritos I can confirm undersparked is drug friendly 👍👍👍 also you might be the only person that remembers verysparked haha
with the maggots in the oven story, It really depends on what type of oven it is (YES, THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF OVENS.) it could be a gas oven or an electric over, really depends.
So… who else here will no longer feel self-conscious about having too much dirty laundry in the hamper or decorations from a holiday that’s already over, when a plumber needs to come over and fix something? Because I’m pretty sure my house and its bat stickers and fake skull on a shelf don’t even place with plumbers’ weird stories.
As someone who regularly goes into other people’s houses for work, I will say that the only people who apologize for the “mess” are people who really don’t need to. For my own story, this isn’t the weirdest thing but it is the most recent. I had a guy a few weeks ago whose house was what I would call borderline hoarder - it was messy as shit, but you could get around. Except, that is, for the literal MOUNTAIN of Dunkin Donuts cups that had accumulated between his recliner and the wall. It was literally taller than I am and I’m 5’10”.
Fargo is a major college town. The guy drying stuff in the closet, a lot of states allow medical license to possess and grow “plants” for own use. For about a week after harvest you hang the stuff to dry out and usually break it down to cutting the branches off the main stem and hang. It takes about a week of living with the SMELL until it dries out enough to chunk and cure. (String a decorative CHAIN from the home center, use ornament hooks or bent jumbo paper clips to hang to dry)
I don't think you need any medical license where it's legal just medically legal states. It's completely legal in most states now and you can grow a certain amount and the amount is much more than the two or three pounds he had.
I've been living in the same cozy condo with hubby for the past quarter century. I feel a lot better about our cluttered place now - we might not be the tidiest folk, but we've never got to the stage of some of these stories!
Yeah, after watching this I feel a lot better about the house I’ve lived in my entire life being only cluttered and somewhat dusty in spots; it’s clearly been lived in and had kids growing up in it, scratches on things from kids running into it, or cats deciding to claw it, dust bunnies hiding under furniture, maybe a faint whiff of cat litter, etc...but hey, it’s better than a lot of the stuff here lol
A friend of mine was a maintenance worker for a housing project in Chicago a long time ago. He entered an apartment once to discover that the tenants had broken the bathroom window. Why had they broken the the window? They needed ventilation. They had filled the bathtub with charcoal, removed the shelving from the refrigerator, and set it over the charcoal filled bathtub. They were barbecuing ribs! Bizarre!
@UnderSparked I gotta ask, who runs this channel? Is it one of the main narrators? Who are the narrators, they should probably be credited and linked. I have QUESTIONS
10:40 For the oven crawling with maggots: Probably had something crawl in there and die. Maggots were all that was left cause whatever else there had been was long devoured/turned into a slurry of juice by the maggots & flies.
Not a plumber, but did maintenance for an apartment complex for low income families. 95% of the places are what you'd expect. A little cluttered, but nothing outlandish. Had a couple hoarders though. One lady that'd been there for years finally had us try to fix something and when my co-worker and I knocked on the door, the smell made us both back up when she answered. We *had* to notify management office, she ended up being evicted (I still fell bad, she was a nice old woman, but....dude) and that building took months to be livable again. There were 2 dead, rotting cats and 10+ barely hanging on living on literal mountains of trash mixed with feces. The floorboards were moldy and rotting from all the cat pee that soaked through the thing that once resembled carpeting. I know that the cats were all taken in by the humane society, not sure where they went after that. She ended up in an assisted living apartment building where she's much better taken care of than on her own.
Weird home-visit story from a social worker: I was working for a hospital in NYC, visiting a new patient in one of the Harlem projects. This woman was super nice and had lived in the same project for 60 years. Whenever I leave a patients home I always offer them a hug and after I gave this woman a hug she bangs on the wall next to the door and a piece of wood falls down revealing a pile of machetes and she goes “I like you sweetie, if anyone gives you problems you tell them [her name] the machete lady has your back”. I’ve never met a cooler woman
The hair story is interesting because I actually know people who save hair, but for traditional hair styles where you use them to support your hair, not for. Um. saving.
What I like about your narrations is that when you get to the information talking about gross or disturbing information, you subtly change your intonation to perfectly mimic someone horrified, but keeping oneself together in order to get the information across properly. You usually have a great timing for it too, but it’s hard to put a precise description on what about your timing makes it so great.
I have a sort of opposite to this. We had a window company near our house. It was there for years and we used them a couple of times but I hadn't needed work in years. So I was in need of new windows and looked up their number and decided, for the heck of it, to look at their reviews. The reviews were in order of newest to oldest. The newest, and last, review was about how a woman had called them to have windows replaced. While the guy was there he asked if he could use the bathroom. After which he came out of the bathroom hurriedly and excused himself that he had to leave. The woman found his behavior a little odd and went into the bathroom. There was explosive diarrhea all over the bathroom. She attempted to call the company to get the person to send cleaners to take care of the mess but they would not answer. A handful of days later I passed the company while driving down the street and there was an "Out of Business" sign in their window.
It was my house that freaked a service worker out. My dishwasher was leaking so I called for repairs. Guy comes to check it out and had a full on panic attack because I had (in tanks/ a cage) a 7 ft. long Python, a rose hair tarantula, and a very large white rat.
My dogs get regular acupuncture and hydrotherapy as they've gotten older to help with arthritis. I'm not super rich but these guys are my best friends and I don't have kids. It's expensive etc but worth it to keep them happy and healthy in their older years. P.s. just like a lot of people, they don't love the acupuncture, but the pain relief and extra mobility they get is visible after a session. Plus, they get a giant peanut butter lickey mat to keep them distracted, so they still get excited going there! P.p.s. all of this is done by vets who specialise in dog rehab :)
4:44 rejected lines were come on dude be a smooth criminal 😂😂 6:03 anyone remember the monkey that ripped a woman apart that one time it was her pet btw THEY SHUOLD NOT BE PETS Oh this’ll be funny if u don’t know maybe don’t look it up
@@sirei01I thought some states allow you to vote locally once you’re out. I think florida tried to pass this via referendum. Just no federal elections.
My dad used to have a job where he would go to peoples "for rent" houses and clean out the things they left so it would be ready for other people, and the creeeepy weeeeird thing he would always find was…tennis balls, yea that’s it, there were so many houses with some tennis balls for some reason
Not a plumber... but I'm an electrician. We were tracing out a problem circuit in a rich couple's home. We couldn't find the problem... and we knew there was information being left out. The home owners had to reluctantly show us their secret s3x dungeon. That's where the problem was 😂
Im a pharmacist who visits care homes and supported living residence to do medication reviews on patients with learning disability or frailty. I've thankfully never seen signs of abuse or neglect. Hope I NEVER do
Sometimes people are really good at hiding the harm they cause to others and while I also hope you never have to see horrible things like that, I feel like one of these days its gonna happen weather you want it to or not. Humanity is cruel.
hvac tech here. old lady with 30 plus cats not all alive and most of which were alive were very sick. the entire house was covered in piss vomit and feces. threw up seconds after walking in. you dont want the rest of the story.
21:34 I would hope he framed it so that his kids learn and will never forget that one punch that land badly can destroy your life. As a side note, my mom worked in a minimum security prison. The inmates lived in these big rooms and had access to tv all day long. One old guy that was dying from cancer was being a prick and would constantly change the channel or pull out the tv from the socket. A younger guy confronted him, the old guy punched him. The young one pushed him and the old guy fell, hit his head and had internal bleeding and died. He maybe had 2 months left to live. The young one got 7 years added to his sentence ( had less than one left) and was moved to a maximum security prison. Completely destroyed his life, went from theft to having a murder charge.
Oh my god it's my people. I'm an apartment maintenance supervisor. My favorite one to tell is the emergency water leak call I got at 4am. I show up to a guy who's pupils are wider than the color of his eyes, who has half of his ELECTRONIC kitchen gadgets, unplugged thankfully, piled up in his bath tub with the water on and the tub overflowing. There was also a bunch of just random stuff, like he walked around the apartment and just grabbed anything off his shelves and out of his cabinets and what not that looked dirty. I then see his bathroom sink is full of whole coffee beans floating/sitting in water and like 4 bags of coffee sitting on the bathroom counter. He genuinely didn't understand why the water came out of the bathroom and started flooding the rest of his apartment. It wasn't even my property, when I'm on call for emergencies, I'm on call at my property and a bunch of others, so I had to type up a detailed summary of the incident and why the water damage occurred so the regular employees at that property would deal with it the next work day.
I mean, story 45 makes sense. I've met a few guys like that - super manly to the point where it makes perfect sense that he doesn't have room in his life for a woman. Dude is living his best life and thats admirable.
as someone who has lived in a few hoarder homes, (though not nearly as bad as a lot of these) it's pretty gross, and if you know any hoarders- please kindly try to help them or suggest something to help them.
I inherited my childhood home when my mom died. In her last few years, she became a bit of a hoarder (breast cancer and chemo make it difficult to find the gumption to clean). My fiancé and I have ADHD and are rarely motivated to clean. But this video made me clean out/organize our fridge and start on the living room.
Whilst working as a relief dustbin truck driver myself and 2 guys were sent to a house and told to start at the front gate and chuck EVERYTHING in the crusher. We cleared the front garden by the end of the day, day 2 we got into the house to start clearing it. At the end of the week we were not done.
32:00 the explanation is more along the lines of: the dopamine and epinephrine pathways in the brains are prominently involved in ones libido, and using epinephrine/dopamine agonists, like for example amphetamines and cathinones, will have both dis-inhibiting and stimulating effects on ones libido. Coupled with all the other effects of these stimulants (increased stamina, sociability, self-esteem, lowerd inhibition, pain treshold) a perfect storm of honrniness is a fairly common outcome of consumption of these substances
The person in the nursing home had been dead for two days? That's awful. Even if it's more of an assisted living community, someone should be checking in more often.
The maggots in the oven could have been from mice getting inside and living, then dying, in it. Only time I ever found a mouse living in my house it was in my oven.
These stories are wild! The fire department encounter is hilarious yet concerning-imagine waking up to a fire chief in your living room! And the second story is heartbreaking; it’s shocking how some people neglect those in their care. It really highlights the need for better oversight
Story 35: There's a scam where people will sell pet "teacup pigs" and claim they'll never get larger than a small dog. There is absolutely no such thing, they're just selling normal piglets which will in fact grow to normal pig size. (A lot of the time they may be selling an adult pig who's been underfed to stunt their growth, but it's often just a whole baby. Also, you have to remember that pigs can sometimes breed at 3 months old and don't reach physical maturity until 18-24 months, so these scammers can also show you photos of mama to "prove" that your baby will grow up to be tiny, when the truth is mama is still a baby herself.) The usual course is to find an animal rescue organization of some kind and they can usually make arrangements. But occasionally the family falls in love with the pig, or just finds it hilarious to just have a whole 600 pound pig as a pet, and figures out a way to keep it. Turning a mud room into a sty honestly seems like the best option lmao.
The second one isn't bone chilling. It's sad. I work with people with intellectual disabilities as well and this just shows that person needs more support. Not everyone is capable of avoiding living like that...
NGL respect to y'all for being one of the few channels reading out askreddit stuff that not only has human voices behind it but openly calls out shit like the OP's comment about the toddler
The most chilling thing I have found is that I was in a house replacing a water heater. To get to the attic, you have to go through this girl's room. the girl is only high-school age. No older than 16 I would say, but the attic access was in her closet. We walked through to the attic, and as we pass through the room we glance around. I see on the nightstand about a footlong or so, and as I look to the otherside of the room I look up and there is not even trying to hide a camera sitting there aiming at her bed.
I was digging under a basement stairs in an old house that used to be a doctor's office in the 1920's, and found 15 old mason jars with galvanized lids. They contained fetuses.
dude how do people not get dressed before strangers go to their houses to fix stuff and do works?? like, i get sometimes someone on the house couldve forgotten they were going or smt but the AMOUNT of shamelessly naked/flashing people in these stories ?????
Work for an asbestos abatement company and we had to remove all the asbestos products from a trailer before it got demolished. You'd be surprised how many cats ended up stuck in the belly wrap of that trailer and couldnt get out. Found multiple dead cats under the subfloor in the belly wrap insulation and under the floor hvac ducts. Definitely got stuck and couldn't find their way out. Poor things Edit: Another job we removed part of an interior bathroom wall and we found a bunch of letters from the 1930s between two studs. Next set of studs over had a bunch of medical needles, to the tune of about 50 or 60 needles
That second one is honestly more depressing than anything. Those are people who can't take care of themselves being neglected because the people hired to do so just dont care
I was fixing a shower clog with my brother (who’s my pluming partner) and somehow we got sucked down the drain. Next thing we knew we were surrounded by giant mushrooms and floating brick blocks, a far cry from the life in Brooklyn we’re used to. We still haven’t found our way out. Honestly, I think our lives are better this way. Me and my brother are both dating princesses, I’m friends with almost everyone, and I have a pet dinosaur who for some reason keeps insisting that he raised me.
I'm a house cleaner... The worst thing I've seen is a client who had failed to tell us that she had two 300 pound potbelly pigs...That she let walk in the house!! Mud was flung EVERYWHERE. We used over 10 magic erasers and we still couldn't finish. We could tell she was disappointed but honestly her fault. We never went back! Second thing was just a vibrator kind of lying on someone's side table. I just didn't touch or mention it and forgot about it until now.
12:04 Little kids (boys and girls) definitely go through a nudist phase. Most of them thankfully grow out of it once they discover their own innate modesty and have fewer sensory issues with various articles of clothing. 14:40 The smell aside, I'm imagining 30 cats in Halloween costumes and dying laughing. 17:00 When I was in early elementary school (early to mid 90s), one of my friends' family lived in a condemned house. There was a huge hole in the front porch in front of their front door (they dropped a sheet of plywood over it so no one would fall in). Now that I am older, I can identify the smells of that house as cockroaches, mold, and (in the basement) flooding that had involved sewer water. I have no idea how they were able to get utility services to that house. I just remember evidence of several different kinds of what I now know were official notices that had been peeled off the windows. 34:30 Hopefully that cage was for weird consensual stuff instead of the really horrifying stuff...o.o
This question asked... It surprises me, how many health care workers, admits to, walking in a house, ignore obvious and hazardous red flags, and just go about their day, without reporting it You'd think, someone goes into health care, and cares, or at the very least has a passion for others or something.... No wonder, I have a fear (a.k.a phobia) of hospital, and health care workers Also alarm me, of how many parents (due to their job requirements) walks into a house and ignore the abuse of humans and animals, and at the end of the day, go back home to their partner/kids/animals

Worked at a Section 8 apartment complex as a maintenance man. Walked by a unit and saw what looked like a blue tarp and three dudes in robes cutting up a body. Turns out they were butchering a goat or a cow and splitting the meat up. There were alot of immigrants in the complex and this apartment functioned as the Complexs Mosque.
22:40: Fun fact "roach debris" (husks, excrements, etc) is called "frass" Edit: the cat one sounds horrific and it does make me sad, but you can buy cat cadavers for practice like what he claimed so there IS a chance he's not a serial killer in training lol Edit 2: I hope nascar guy is living his best life lmao

Plumber here: One job had a clogged toilet. (Mind you they kept using it after they clogged it.). Nothing we did was helping clear the blockage in this toilet. we end up replacing it and take the old one back to our office to break it apart and see what the blockage was. An entire chicken carcass. Like a rotisserie but still. Bones and all. Some of the bones even looked like they have been snapped in half. Made sure to let the landlord of the property know and the landlord told us that the tenant blamed it on her four year-old daughter. Sorry Lady, but I’m not buying that your four year-old daughter was able to snap the bones of a chicken. Another job was down in a gigantic church in the city I live in. Big city lots of churches like these and we do work for quite a few of them. This one in particular, however, had the body of one of their former pastors buried in the basement in a casket. I, myself being fascinated by the macabre was ecstatic. My coworkers, however, not so much.
A gas employee once needed to check my stove. Fine. Until he notices the block and tackle above the bed. There was a silk plant in it...but he wasn't distracted. He just collapsed into laughter. He did not get into the room with the rack. In California, we needed a repair on the electrical in the garage. Unfortunate timing....as it was early fall the rails of the garage doors were a virtual curtain of drying plants. Being California, he just commented....smells good in here. (It was legal to grow your own limited quantity there.) Okay....I do have an indoor rooster....but he's getting a diaper. He is RATHER LARGE and not yet full grown. Brooms, mops and towels are required DAILY. I can't imagine a house full of loose parrots. Arbeit macht frei.....YIKES.
I opened the access hole to get under the house, stick my flashlight in to get my first peek, and see millions of tiny eyes reflecting back at me, from the scorpion infestation, I now had to crawl through to get to the leak...

Oh c'mon people. *Take care of your pets!*
I don't understand why some people just have pets, sometimes an absurd number of pets, just to neglect them.
Some people have psychological issues that cause them to hoard not things but pets. That is one of the reasons.

When I had to go back there after my mother's funeral, there was a narrow track from the front door through the living room, the kitchen and the laundry to the bathroom. Before my mother died, there would have been just enough room beside that track for her rented hospital bed.
My sister inherited the house. She too is a hoarder.
BABY WAKE UP UNDERSPARKED POSTED
splash of cold water while they're sleeping for an undersparked video is like opening a gift on a christmas morning. But even better, finding out the gift is from your father who left to go get the milk 5 years ago 👍
Being addicted to undersparked reallysparked and even vary sparked is the only good kinda addiction and probably won’t ruin your life yay
I'm not sure if I'd consider FedoraZen230 talking about his views about women in a video good education but as someone who likes to snort the snow with my doritos I can confirm undersparked is drug friendly 👍👍👍 also you might be the only person that remembers verysparked haha
@@UnderSparkedi wanted a petition to have the other narrator go to verysparked so i had 3 channels to use at once
This video is wonderfull too share with a loved one.
with the maggots in the oven story, It really depends on what type of oven it is (YES, THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF OVENS.) it could be a gas oven or an electric over, really depends.
I saw that part while eating cereal, I had a few thoughts in my head..
This isn't about plumbers

Oh, I didn’t realizethis was sarcasm
Confusion
So… who else here will no longer feel self-conscious about having too much dirty laundry in the hamper or decorations from a holiday that’s already over, when a plumber needs to come over and fix something? Because I’m pretty sure my house and its bat stickers and fake skull on a shelf don’t even place with plumbers’ weird stories.
As someone who regularly goes into other people’s houses for work, I will say that the only people who apologize for the “mess” are people who really don’t need to.
For my own story, this isn’t the weirdest thing but it is the most recent. I had a guy a few weeks ago whose house was what I would call borderline hoarder - it was messy as shit, but you could get around. Except, that is, for the literal MOUNTAIN of Dunkin Donuts cups that had accumulated between his recliner and the wall. It was literally taller than I am and I’m 5’10”.
Fargo is a major college town. The guy drying stuff in the closet, a lot of states allow medical license to possess and grow “plants” for own use. For about a week after harvest you hang the stuff to dry out and usually break it down to cutting the branches off the main stem and hang. It takes about a week of living with the SMELL until it dries out enough to chunk and cure. (String a decorative CHAIN from the home center, use ornament hooks or bent jumbo paper clips to hang to dry)
I don't think you need any medical license where it's legal just medically legal states. It's completely legal in most states now and you can grow a certain amount and the amount is much more than the two or three pounds he had.
I've been living in the same cozy condo with hubby for the past quarter century. I feel a lot better about our cluttered place now - we might not be the tidiest folk, but we've never got to the stage of some of these stories!
Yeah, after watching this I feel a lot better about the house I’ve lived in my entire life being only cluttered and somewhat dusty in spots; it’s clearly been lived in and had kids growing up in it, scratches on things from kids running into it, or cats deciding to claw it, dust bunnies hiding under furniture, maybe a faint whiff of cat litter, etc...but hey, it’s better than a lot of the stuff here lol
A friend of mine was a maintenance worker for a housing project in Chicago a long time ago. He entered an apartment once to discover that the tenants had broken the bathroom window. Why had they broken the the window? They needed ventilation. They had filled the bathtub with charcoal, removed the shelving from the refrigerator, and set it over the charcoal filled bathtub. They were barbecuing ribs! Bizarre!
Im guessing this is gonna be a lot of adult stuff, a lot of drugs, and a few really weird things.
I feel like you just summarized the human experience in a nutshell haha
@@UnderSparkedcleaning company here. Does a box of a couple thousand or so condoms in a college girls apartment count as adult stuff?
@UnderSparked I gotta ask, who runs this channel? Is it one of the main narrators? Who are the narrators, they should probably be credited and linked. I have QUESTIONS
10:40 For the oven crawling with maggots: Probably had something crawl in there and die. Maggots were all that was left cause whatever else there had been was long devoured/turned into a slurry of juice by the maggots & flies.
turning it on would solve the problem, but you can have it all, I'm vegetarian thanks 😏
Not a plumber, but did maintenance for an apartment complex for low income families. 95% of the places are what you'd expect. A little cluttered, but nothing outlandish. Had a couple hoarders though. One lady that'd been there for years finally had us try to fix something and when my co-worker and I knocked on the door, the smell made us both back up when she answered. We *had* to notify management office, she ended up being evicted (I still fell bad, she was a nice old woman, but....dude) and that building took months to be livable again. There were 2 dead, rotting cats and 10+ barely hanging on living on literal mountains of trash mixed with feces. The floorboards were moldy and rotting from all the cat pee that soaked through the thing that once resembled carpeting. I know that the cats were all taken in by the humane society, not sure where they went after that. She ended up in an assisted living apartment building where she's much better taken care of than on her own.
Weird home-visit story from a social worker:
I was working for a hospital in NYC, visiting a new patient in one of the Harlem projects. This woman was super nice and had lived in the same project for 60 years. Whenever I leave a patients home I always offer them a hug and after I gave this woman a hug she bangs on the wall next to the door and a piece of wood falls down revealing a pile of machetes and she goes “I like you sweetie, if anyone gives you problems you tell them [her name] the machete lady has your back”.
I’ve never met a cooler woman
The hair story is interesting because I actually know people who save hair, but for traditional hair styles where you use them to support your hair, not for. Um. saving.
There was an old tradition of memorial hair jewellery too. But you'd be hard put to find someone w that skill nowadays.
Story 13, narrator's reaction was my EXACT reaction lmao. Saying my thoughts as I thought them.
What I like about your narrations is that when you get to the information talking about gross or disturbing information, you subtly change your intonation to perfectly mimic someone horrified, but keeping oneself together in order to get the information across properly.
You usually have a great timing for it too, but it’s hard to put a precise description on what about your timing makes it so great.
North Dakotan here, every time you hear of ND on any of these videos, alcohol is always involved 😂😂
ur right about that lol. it always shocks me when my hometown is mentioned in the media, not the “Fargo” movie is filmed in ND 😂
The stories of the eagle and the parrots touched a nerve in me..I would of called police or knowing myself, would of took matters in my own hands 😔
I have a sort of opposite to this. We had a window company near our house. It was there for years and we used them a couple of times but I hadn't needed work in years. So I was in need of new windows and looked up their number and decided, for the heck of it, to look at their reviews. The reviews were in order of newest to oldest. The newest, and last, review was about how a woman had called them to have windows replaced. While the guy was there he asked if he could use the bathroom. After which he came out of the bathroom hurriedly and excused himself that he had to leave. The woman found his behavior a little odd and went into the bathroom. There was explosive diarrhea all over the bathroom. She attempted to call the company to get the person to send cleaners to take care of the mess but they would not answer.
A handful of days later I passed the company while driving down the street and there was an "Out of Business" sign in their window.
😂😭 talk about throwing the baby out with the bath water. He could've just apologized and cleaned up, even comped her to sweeten the deal.
It was my house that freaked a service worker out. My dishwasher was leaking so I called for repairs. Guy comes to check it out and had a full on panic attack because I had (in tanks/ a cage) a 7 ft. long Python, a rose hair tarantula, and a very large white rat.
😂😂😂💀💀💀 I don't mind the python or the rat. But the tarantula is clearly not my cup of tea.

To be fair, if I had a lot of extra money I would totally spoil my pets too.
My dogs get regular acupuncture and hydrotherapy as they've gotten older to help with arthritis. I'm not super rich but these guys are my best friends and I don't have kids. It's expensive etc but worth it to keep them happy and healthy in their older years.
P.s. just like a lot of people, they don't love the acupuncture, but the pain relief and extra mobility they get is visible after a session. Plus, they get a giant peanut butter lickey mat to keep them distracted, so they still get excited going there!
P.p.s. all of this is done by vets who specialise in dog rehab :)

Not a plumber... but I'm an electrician. We were tracing out a problem circuit in a rich couple's home. We couldn't find the problem... and we knew there was information being left out. The home owners had to reluctantly show us their secret s3x dungeon. That's where the problem was 😂

old lady with 30 plus cats not all alive and most of which were alive were very sick. the entire house was covered in piss vomit and feces. threw up seconds after walking in. you dont want the rest of the story.

As a side note, my mom worked in a minimum security prison. The inmates lived in these big rooms and had access to tv all day long. One old guy that was dying from cancer was being a prick and would constantly change the channel or pull out the tv from the socket. A younger guy confronted him, the old guy punched him. The young one pushed him and the old guy fell, hit his head and had internal bleeding and died. He maybe had 2 months left to live.
The young one got 7 years added to his sentence ( had less than one left) and was moved to a maximum security prison. Completely destroyed his life, went from theft to having a murder charge.
Oh my god it's my people. I'm an apartment maintenance supervisor.
My favorite one to tell is the emergency water leak call I got at 4am. I show up to a guy who's pupils are wider than the color of his eyes, who has half of his ELECTRONIC kitchen gadgets, unplugged thankfully, piled up in his bath tub with the water on and the tub overflowing. There was also a bunch of just random stuff, like he walked around the apartment and just grabbed anything off his shelves and out of his cabinets and what not that looked dirty. I then see his bathroom sink is full of whole coffee beans floating/sitting in water and like 4 bags of coffee sitting on the bathroom counter. He genuinely didn't understand why the water came out of the bathroom and started flooding the rest of his apartment. It wasn't even my property, when I'm on call for emergencies, I'm on call at my property and a bunch of others, so I had to type up a detailed summary of the incident and why the water damage occurred so the regular employees at that property would deal with it the next work day.
I mean, story 45 makes sense. I've met a few guys like that - super manly to the point where it makes perfect sense that he doesn't have room in his life for a woman. Dude is living his best life and thats admirable.
Cis/straight people sometimes don't understand that lgbt+ people are multi-faceted humans just like everyone else. Not everyone is a stereotype lmao
23:06 🤣 🤣 🤣 Her husband was at home when the guy came and found a blow up doll with his face on it! 🤣 🤣
as someone who has lived in a few hoarder homes, (though not nearly as bad as a lot of these) it's pretty gross, and if you know any hoarders- please kindly try to help them or suggest something to help them.
I inherited my childhood home when my mom died. In her last few years, she became a bit of a hoarder (breast cancer and chemo make it difficult to find the gumption to clean).
My fiancé and I have ADHD and are rarely motivated to clean. But this video made me clean out/organize our fridge and start on the living room.
Whilst working as a relief dustbin truck driver myself and 2 guys were sent to a house and told to start at the front gate and chuck EVERYTHING in the crusher. We cleared the front garden by the end of the day, day 2 we got into the house to start clearing it. At the end of the week we were not done.
32:00 the explanation is more along the lines of: the dopamine and epinephrine pathways in the brains are prominently involved in ones libido, and using epinephrine/dopamine agonists, like for example amphetamines and cathinones, will have both dis-inhibiting and stimulating effects on ones libido. Coupled with all the other effects of these stimulants (increased stamina, sociability, self-esteem, lowerd inhibition, pain treshold) a perfect storm of honrniness is a fairly common outcome of consumption of these substances
The person in the nursing home had been dead for two days? That's awful. Even if it's more of an assisted living community, someone should be checking in more often.
I hope the “caregivers” in Story 2 got the book thrown at them in court.
It only gets worse.
Am I the only one who keeps expecting the horse cantering on the train tracks to stumble and break a leg? LOL
Story 30: is it by any chance possible this happened in, I dunno, Austria? Was the man named Joseph Fritzl? Just a wild guess.
The maggots in the oven could have been from mice getting inside and living, then dying, in it. Only time I ever found a mouse living in my house it was in my oven.
These stories are wild! The fire department encounter is hilarious yet concerning-imagine waking up to a fire chief in your living room! And the second story is heartbreaking; it’s shocking how some people neglect those in their care. It really highlights the need for better oversight
just checked and yep its illegal to have a pet bald or gold eagle without special permits
i think maintenance workers instead of plumbers would work better as a title
Story 35: There's a scam where people will sell pet "teacup pigs" and claim they'll never get larger than a small dog. There is absolutely no such thing, they're just selling normal piglets which will in fact grow to normal pig size. (A lot of the time they may be selling an adult pig who's been underfed to stunt their growth, but it's often just a whole baby. Also, you have to remember that pigs can sometimes breed at 3 months old and don't reach physical maturity until 18-24 months, so these scammers can also show you photos of mama to "prove" that your baby will grow up to be tiny, when the truth is mama is still a baby herself.) The usual course is to find an animal rescue organization of some kind and they can usually make arrangements. But occasionally the family falls in love with the pig, or just finds it hilarious to just have a whole 600 pound pig as a pet, and figures out a way to keep it. Turning a mud room into a sty honestly seems like the best option lmao.
The second one isn't bone chilling. It's sad. I work with people with intellectual disabilities as well and this just shows that person needs more support. Not everyone is capable of avoiding living like that...
NGL respect to y'all for being one of the few channels reading out askreddit stuff that not only has human voices behind it but openly calls out shit like the OP's comment about the toddler
The most chilling thing I have found is that I was in a house replacing a water heater. To get to the attic, you have to go through this girl's room. the girl is only high-school age. No older than 16 I would say, but the attic access was in her closet. We walked through to the attic, and as we pass through the room we glance around. I see on the nightstand about a footlong or so, and as I look to the otherside of the room I look up and there is not even trying to hide a camera sitting there aiming at her bed.
4:26 that stuff is perfectly legal in canada.
I was digging under a basement stairs in an old house that used to be a doctor's office in the 1920's, and found 15 old mason jars with galvanized lids. They contained fetuses.

Work for an asbestos abatement company and we had to remove all the asbestos products from a trailer before it got demolished. You'd be surprised how many cats ended up stuck in the belly wrap of that trailer and couldnt get out. Found multiple dead cats under the subfloor in the belly wrap insulation and under the floor hvac ducts.
Definitely got stuck and couldn't find their way out. Poor things
Edit:
Another job we removed part of an interior bathroom wall and we found a bunch of letters from the 1930s between two studs. Next set of studs over had a bunch of medical needles, to the tune of about 50 or 60 needles
That second one is honestly more depressing than anything. Those are people who can't take care of themselves being neglected because the people hired to do so just dont care
I was fixing a shower clog with my brother (who’s my pluming partner) and somehow we got sucked down the drain. Next thing we knew we were surrounded by giant mushrooms and floating brick blocks, a far cry from the life in Brooklyn we’re used to. We still haven’t found our way out. Honestly, I think our lives are better this way. Me and my brother are both dating princesses, I’m friends with almost everyone, and I have a pet dinosaur who for some reason keeps insisting that he raised me.
I'm a house cleaner... The worst thing I've seen is a client who had failed to tell us that she had two 300 pound potbelly pigs...That she let walk in the house!! Mud was flung EVERYWHERE. We used over 10 magic erasers and we still couldn't finish. We could tell she was disappointed but honestly her fault. We never went back!
Second thing was just a vibrator kind of lying on someone's side table. I just didn't touch or mention it and forgot about it until now.
18:22 what's particularly gross about the story is that you really have to neglect the hell out of bunnies to make them stink, especially that bad
I genuinely wonder how much of these people are all there. Psychosis is one hell of a thing

12:04 Little kids (boys and girls) definitely go through a nudist phase. Most of them thankfully grow out of it once they discover their own innate modesty and have fewer sensory issues with various articles of clothing. 14:40 The smell aside, I'm imagining 30 cats in Halloween costumes and dying laughing. 17:00 When I was in early elementary school (early to mid 90s), one of my friends' family lived in a condemned house. There was a huge hole in the front porch in front of their front door (they dropped a sheet of plywood over it so no one would fall in). Now that I am older, I can identify the smells of that house as cockroaches, mold, and (in the basement) flooding that had involved sewer water. I have no idea how they were able to get utility services to that house. I just remember evidence of several different kinds of what I now know were official notices that had been peeled off the windows. 34:30 Hopefully that cage was for weird consensual stuff instead of the really horrifying stuff...o.o
This question asked...
It surprises me, how many health care workers, admits to, walking in a house, ignore obvious and hazardous red flags, and just go about their day, without reporting it
You'd think, someone goes into health care, and cares, or at the very least has a passion for others or something....
No wonder, I have a fear (a.k.a phobia) of hospital, and health care workers
Also alarm me, of how many parents (due to their job requirements) walks into a house and ignore the abuse of humans and animals, and at the end of the day, go back home to their partner/kids/animals
They don't want to deal with it.

Worked at a Section 8 apartment complex as a maintenance man. Walked by a unit and saw what looked like a blue tarp and three dudes in robes cutting up a body. Turns out they were butchering a goat or a cow and splitting the meat up. There were alot of immigrants in the complex and this apartment functioned as the Complexs Mosque.

Plumber here:
One job had a clogged toilet. (Mind you they kept using it after they clogged it.). Nothing we did was helping clear the blockage in this toilet. we end up replacing it and take the old one back to our office to break it apart and see what the blockage was. An entire chicken carcass. Like a rotisserie but still. Bones and all. Some of the bones even looked like they have been snapped in half. Made sure to let the landlord of the property know and the landlord told us that the tenant blamed it on her four year-old daughter. Sorry Lady, but I’m not buying that your four year-old daughter was able to snap the bones of a chicken.
Another job was down in a gigantic church in the city I live in. Big city lots of churches like these and we do work for quite a few of them. This one in particular, however, had the body of one of their former pastors buried in the basement in a casket. I, myself being fascinated by the macabre was ecstatic. My coworkers, however, not so much.

A gas employee once needed to check my stove. Fine. Until he notices the block and tackle above the bed. There was a silk plant in it...but he wasn't distracted. He just collapsed into laughter. He did not get into the room with the rack. In California, we needed a repair on the electrical in the garage. Unfortunate timing....as it was early fall the rails of the garage doors were a virtual curtain of drying plants. Being California, he just commented....smells good in here. (It was legal to grow your own limited quantity there.) Okay....I do have an indoor rooster....but he's getting a diaper. He is RATHER LARGE and not yet full grown. Brooms, mops and towels are required DAILY. I can't imagine a house full of loose parrots. Arbeit macht frei.....YIKES.
