Crazy how Google wouldn’t think twice about selling all your private information in a heartbeat. Yet will hesitate and drag their feet for a year when it comes to getting information to solve a crime.
Just imagine if google can give out any information considered private linking you personally to it by another person... I'm pretty sure that will be misused to the point where it ruins life. About the private information being sold... google uses profiling and ml to show ads and sells general data, not the whole private individually identifying data, even if the data is individually identifying, it's more safer in a database that uses it for ads, rather than in the hands of a person looking to harm individuals... I'm not supporting google, I'm just saying that people are shittier, and the same people run these companies as well...
They don't sell your private info, because then it's public info and worthless to them. They sell targeted ads using your private info. Don't spread misinformation
Honestly their ability to recognize the opportunity and immediately think of something hilarious like that is impressive. Most people would just be like "hey, check it out google car." And that would have been it.
@@awkward3596 Just because I'm that type of annoying... When the story first was reported on one of the guys said he recognised the Google car and it had to drive around a car park giving them "some time" :D The re-telling of the police part is a little spiced up aswell, they already knew it very likely was a joke as one of their colleagues got their car serviced there. Always interesting to see how stories gets retold through time.
It was an act of sheer folly that was planned by those two mischievous lads, and it was in fact a very mischievous deed, laced with intentions of tomfoolery.
They anonymise your data. For example when they sell your data the dont sell it directly they sell it as sort of a bundle of people in this bundle are between 28 and 35 years old, tracking you down is impossible from that data, because they serve ads themselves based on that data. It does not leave google. Police asling for data also opens a very dangerous precedent without lawyers present because it will be abused and because that data is private, not anonimyzed. Also there is a thing about this specific case, they obeyed the law of the land to blur the faces, so deblurring it is a problem because it might be breaking a law
And the corruptness of Cameroon is startling. Maybe the BBC can figure out where the White House cocaine came from, because the FBI and CIA apparently can’t.

The scarecrow exhibition was clearly marked in the Google Maps that it was the famous art installation Hiljainen Kansa (The Silent People) by Reijo Kela from 1994 but out if the context it may look scary. It is yearly maintained so the scarecrows get new clothes regularly. People like to donate their old clothes. I used to live in that region of Finland but I have never seen that art installation live. When the local people are changing the clothes of the scarecrows it is often featured in the Finnish news.
The guy with tons of bicycles reminds me of one hoarder guy who had a huge collection of toilets around his house. But he moved to a different place and stopped collecting toilets before Google Street View was released. I believe his house would have become a famous Google Street View location. 😅
30:57 At that time, all Cameroonians who had seen this video knew that these soldiers were indeed of the Cameroonian army. The accent never deceives and is very recognizable, hence the amazement in view of the minister's first statement about this odious act

This is why even my grandpa always said the fastest way to get into an early grave is letting your husband control your finances, even in normal couples this creat big rifts and fights and is never worth in the end
The thing I love about Visual Venture videos is the creativity and quality he makes into every video. He’s made videos into topics I had never heard of before (like Silk Road, probably my favorite ngl). I also love the fact Venture’s videos are horror documentaries.
it's so gross to hear that blogger say "all evidence points to his innocence" when in reality literally all the evidence points to him being the killer... it's just super bizarre and disrespectful to nancy and her family
How do you know all evidence points to his guilt? Being restrictive to protect the finances, not letting her go out much, and forcing her to stay with him isn’t appropriate evidence to prove he’s a murderer. It was unfair of him to not tell Nancy before cutting her off. Moreover, are you certain you aren’t letting your emotions get in the way?
@@Nirmiti. How do you "plant" a Google Map search on someone's computer? He said he had two "witnesses" who could back him up, but just because someone says it, doesn't mean it's true. Doesn't Google _know_ who accessed what corner of the world and when at all times? I'm betting they showed him he didn't have a leg to stand on, and he took the plea deal.
@@Nirmiti.Hi, IT expert and cyber security worker here. That word doesn't actually mean anything in terms of using a big company like google. They save *everything.* they even have a spot on your google account where you can download the entirety of your data that they've collected of you, and it is *terrabytes* of information usually. Companies track everything. Encryption means other people cant see it, but that doesn't mean its not stored away, and that also doesn't mean Google isn't selling it. Because trust me, they are. Google makes profiles of everyone, even people who don't have accounts. Its why they got sued and UA-cam kids had a revamp, its why they got sued and now incognito legally cant say it doesn't save your history. There are plenty of cases of companies directly violating privacy laws and nothing being done. And if a company like google is asked to forfeit information that can help in a crime, they have to give it over by law in at least 90% of countries. They can drag there feet kicking and screaming and demanding every little bit of paperwork, but they eventually *have* to give that information, especially for serious cases. So to answer your question with a question, when you ask "does encryption mean anything to you?", do you mean privacy? Or do you mean data protection? Because they are *very* different in the IT world. And they are *not* the same thing.
Their noses were probably jacked up from all different smells that can be accumulating in air, hence the smell of cars and what not. Also smelling a pot plant state on a highway does not seem believable, but im not the one to deny you of that, so your sense of smell must be strong.
People probably would be able to smell ot but why would random strangers walk into private corn farms if it's not on any hiking route? It's not really an interesting location.
There's some wrong information here. Images on google earth are not only taken by satellites, they also heavily sue aerial images taken from planes (that's those really high resolution ones)
It's really awful that the Cameroonian government _knew_ those soldiers were theirs, yet they refused to act until global attention forced them to. Yet the world just said, "Okay, let's trust them to handle their protection!" I highly doubt those murderers were in prison for long. Once the scrutiny died down, I'm sure they were let out the back door.
" I highly doubt those murderers were in prison for long. Once the scrutiny died down, I'm sure they were let out the back door " Exactly what I was thinking also !!!
16:30 absolutely zero chance that cops that were working on the case just randomly came across the blurred out image of the guy standing in front of the restaurant and went from there to id him. someone snitched. ratted him out, and police used the google maps story as a way to cover it up.
Why on earth would the man stop her work visa application if the reason he removed her from the bank accounts was because she was spending too much? Wouldn’t he want her to get more money, and they said he did that because he wanted her to be more independent.
cutting someone off from money is a tactic used by abusers to keep victims from gaining independence or escaping. without a work visa, she would be unable to work and earn her own money, and without a bank account, she would have no access to the combined funds aside from the cash allowance he gave her, which was likely too small to facilitate her escape. as a result, she didn't have any money, which meant she had no means of leaving him, either alone or with her kids; she stayed as her lack of a job (due to him preventing her from getting a visa for eight years) or funds (as explained above) meant that in the event of divorce, she would be unable to get custody of her kids.
Internet documentaries for me are some of the most interesting and entertaining content I can think of. Not only can the topic be fun to learn about but the format and the video just have a high quality feel. Every time I see a new Visual Venture video it is most likely the first video I click on. Thank you so much for creating high quality and original videos to enjoy, inform, and entertain. I look forward to seeing you reach a million subscribers. You can do it man!
@@Dremag_Gaming Saw people on reddit recently who’d freak at someone suggesting that rodents living outside in nests could be of any concern or harm whatsoever.
Thanks for actually having interesting content. I know that part of the reason why I have a hard time finding interesting content here has more to do with my binge watching for years than an actual lack of good content, but your production quality is superb, the narration is well constructed and very well done, and overall the content makes me want to see more.
Google Maps images are mostly taken from aircraft though, not satellites, despite the name Satellite View (the term Bird's Eye View was initially considered). Only very large scale views use satellite imagery-whenever you're looking at detailed images of urban areas showing individual houses, you're looking at a photo taken from a plane (sometimes even balloons or drones).
My question is, how did the guy keep getting stolen bikes delivered by the van load lol? Since he wasn’t selling any of them, nor parts? Was he selling drugs and traded? Was he just paying people for stolen bikes for the fucknof it? That’s thee only sort of logical reason I can think of?
Just stumbled onto this channel by accident. Kudos to whomever is editing these videos, telling the story with very little actual reference material to work from. Seriously, well done.
8:50 here in the UK, government agencies always use satelite imagery to confirm that farms are farming what they say they are. Farming is strictly regulated here, so this could never have happened here.
There was one time where the google street view car hit someone on a motorcycle or something like that and drove off in a hit and run. It was first published to Google Street View and later removed, so there is a gap in the coverage on the road.
I just have to say, the editing on your videos is so fucking captivating to watch. All the little animations and text, its just all so well done. I'd watch hours of this.
The pictures of the bike mountain were not taken by satellite, there are no civilian satellites that can take photos of such high resolution from space. You highlighted where the images come from and stopped after it said satellites but read two more words and you will see "and aircraft". All the close-up images of roads are taken from aircraft flying over the areas, not satellites!
I said this in another video but, my cousin would always tell me when we were younger: Imagine if Google Maps solved a crime/mystery. It’s just crazy what Google Maps can capture at the right moments. Now I have even more proof to show to him!
The camaroonian one was so heart breaking seeing the childs face behind his mother at the end. I will never watch the video, but people who harm children are monsters not people and they no longer deserve human rights in my oppinion. May that mother and her child rest in peace.
The Nancy Cooper story is so sad... She must have felt so trapped and miserable for all those years, even before she was murdered. The cruelty of some people is just beyond my comprehension.
@@8NigerianPrince0 This happens to me so often, I think youtube knows how far you are in the video and shows you comments on this time when you look at the comments
Brad Cooper was absolutely guilty. Do people falsely confess yes but not this guy. He absolutely made a deal to get out and go home! What a monster! I'm so glad he lost his parental rights! If he was innocent & loved his girls, he never would have pled guilty and been deported!
The other day google maps took me around in a circle looking for Home Depot. I think everyone has a going-in-circles story and I definitely have more than a few.
That person in a car. If he'd lost control of his car he would've tried to get out. As he was found sitting and holding steering wheel, he'd probably had a heart attack or something like that, that actually caused him to drive off the road...
It's called science and Investigative reporting. Like he said, it took over 1,000 hours of research, studying and investigating to come up with the evidence that they found. "Rain Man type shit" is like a neuro divergent person looking at the video and immediately identifying where it was filmed because their brain recalled having seen that terrain at some point.
Although it's not on Google Earth or Google Maps, the first story reminds me of the prank pitchers Dan Plesac and Dave Coggin played on the TV audience. Knowing that the camera would follow any home run that flew over their bullpen, Plesac pretended to punch Coggin in the face at just the right moment. You can still find the videos (I think they did this multiple times) on UA-cam and other sites.
"BBC [ _British_ Broadcasting Corporation] reporters decided to solve the mystery themselves and bring the culprits to justice" - video immediately cuts to inspirational shot of Stars 'n' Stripes flying all magnificent and resplendant in the breeze... Is there _anything_ the Americans don't appropriate?!
I know this probably won’t happen, but I love your videos and I’m also really interested in the mystery behind Kate Yup so if I could make one suggestion, that’s it. Again, I know this most likely won’t happen and if it does happen it’s going to be a bit far in the future because making videos like these most likely takes a lot of time
It's very unlikely that Gammino was manually spotted due to his resemblance to the younger version of himself, all the more if you consider the blurring of his face. They did a reverse face search, and voila!
Most likely it was the editors of the video, and not youtube. It wasn't just the cut audio, even the text was censored. Self-censored videos are really annoying to listen to without subtitltes.
This guy deserves a way bigger fanbase, his videos are so well made and I literally get so excited when he posts, sucks that he doesn’t rake in millions of views a video
Okay but why is no one talking about how scary the age regression app is, like they used it on a man and it looked EXACTLY the same as he actually did 😰
Why in the name of all that is sacred would you say "that neighbor was one of Nancy's closest friends". Obviously she's not her friend if she's sleeping with her husband.

That's one way to get free advertisement for your repair garage.

I said this in another video but, my cousin would always tell me when we were younger: Imagine if Google Maps solved a crime/mystery. It’s just crazy what Google Maps can capture at the right moments. Now I have even more proof to show to him!
The camaroonian one was so heart breaking seeing the childs face behind his mother at the end. I will never watch the video, but people who harm children are monsters not people and they no longer deserve human rights in my oppinion. May that mother and her child rest in peace.
The Nancy Cooper story is so sad... She must have felt so trapped and miserable for all those years, even before she was murdered. The cruelty of some people is just beyond my comprehension.
This guy is a so good editor
Bro was the best in school when it came to reaching the wordcount without saying much of anything
31:58 is this the matrix game
Nah wtf I paused randomly to change vids and seen then I seen ur comment tell me why it paused at the exact same time
@@CasaBeforeMigosShortsbro same wtf
That's some voodoo shit ong😭
@@8NigerianPrince0 This happens to me so often, I think youtube knows how far you are in the video and shows you comments on this time when you look at the comments
@@Skibidy_rizzler_ that makes sense
Seriously... why don't you have millions of subs?! Every story you share is so entertaining and informative, I love it! 💖
Thank you so much. Honestly :)
Brad Cooper was absolutely guilty.
Do people falsely confess yes but not this guy. He absolutely made a deal to get out and go home!
What a monster!
I'm so glad he lost his parental rights!
If he was innocent & loved his girls, he never would have pled guilty and been deported!
First one turned out to be kinda... I don't know how to describe, but more positive than I thought
that’s scottish humour for ya
2:37 "it seemed like the obvious thing to do so I just threw myself on the ground" xD gotta find the humor somewhere ig lol
The other day google maps took me around in a circle looking for Home Depot. I think everyone has a going-in-circles story and I definitely have more than a few.
That person in a car. If he'd lost control of his car he would've tried to get out. As he was found sitting and holding steering wheel, he'd probably had a heart attack or something like that, that actually caused him to drive off the road...
I am baffled by the fact that those BBC people found out the origins of that video. That's some Rain Man type shit
There's also that time 4chan found the location of a Syrian rebel training camp through video.
It's called science and Investigative reporting. Like he said, it took over 1,000 hours of research, studying and investigating to come up with the evidence that they found. "Rain Man type shit" is like a neuro divergent person looking at the video and immediately identifying where it was filmed because their brain recalled having seen that terrain at some point.
Yet millions upon millions of women and children go missing every year in human trafficking - if they want you to stay lost, you stay lost.
You can do it too - GeoGuessr.
Giving GeoWizard a run for his money!
Love it! The open concept is nice. The master bath shower is amazing. Would like to add a fireplace & a place for a tv on the front porch.
Although it's not on Google Earth or Google Maps, the first story reminds me of the prank pitchers Dan Plesac and Dave Coggin played on the TV audience. Knowing that the camera would follow any home run that flew over their bullpen, Plesac pretended to punch Coggin in the face at just the right moment. You can still find the videos (I think they did this multiple times) on UA-cam and other sites.
Naming it "toxic relationship" is kinda crazy. This guy literally killed his wife, and they had kids...
A toxic relationship can lead to death so… not sure what the issue is 🤷🏻♂️
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND EDITING ! Keeps the attention span up
"BBC [ _British_ Broadcasting Corporation] reporters decided to solve the mystery themselves and bring the culprits to justice" - video immediately cuts to inspirational shot of Stars 'n' Stripes flying all magnificent and resplendant in the breeze... Is there _anything_ the Americans don't appropriate?!

Ngl Visual Venture is the best youtuber that talks about stuff like weird things and etc.
There are hundreds of cars in lakes all other the USA. Now, there are YT channels that scour lakes looking for cars. And bodies.
If you map tour the Grand Traverse Bay you can find skeletal shipwrecks all over.

I know this probably won’t happen, but I love your videos and I’m also really interested in the mystery behind Kate Yup so if I could make one suggestion, that’s it. Again, I know this most likely won’t happen and if it does happen it’s going to be a bit far in the future because making videos like these most likely takes a lot of time
This is the first time watching any of your videos and I instantly subscribed
Here in Romania they used Google maps to catch a truck driver who was stealing fuel from his truck. 😂
Good video. Awesome sleuthing by all!
geoguessr players should get hired as detectives
Nicely done. thanks for all the concise editing and narration.
27:25 they needed rainbolt
What an excellent channel.
Subscribed!
It's very unlikely that Gammino was manually spotted due to his resemblance to the younger version of himself, all the more if you consider the blurring of his face.
They did a reverse face search, and voila!
The last one is insane, that was rainbolt before rainbolt. Rest in peace those 2 women..
"Luckily google maps pin pointed the location of the photo" 😂
6:43 What a cute dog!
The cut words drove me nuts. Did you cut every reference to “weed” and “murder”, or did UA-cam?
Most likely it was the editors of the video, and not youtube. It wasn't just the cut audio, even the text was censored.
Self-censored videos are really annoying to listen to without subtitltes.
UA-cam makes these words get censored by channel owners so their videos don't get shadow banned. It's unfortunate but not their fault.
seriously this is my first video i saw from you and Finland is already mentioned :D i feel special and greetings from Finland!
7:58 That photo is obviously taken by a plane, why are you nitpicking from your sources, it literally said "satellites and planes"
He most likely wrote the script before adding in the screenshot, don’t jump to conclusions

love ur videos, they're perfect for listening, watching, playing a action game about prison staff roleplay and even a fps game
I found my friend's coat hanging near my house. We checked street view and it was there
This guy deserves a way bigger fanbase, his videos are so well made and I literally get so excited when he posts, sucks that he doesn’t rake in millions of views a video
Rainbolt has entered the chat.
Man.. remember when reporters actually were interested in discovering the truth? Good times.
Not me trying to look for the mechanic one 💀😭
more like thiiiiiis please. its so fascinating.
This video is no doubt one of your best, it is a little more informative than your other ones
Good name for this channel.... Truly the strangest mysteries. Especialy the mystery of the stolen car. Oooooooooooh
Google Maps isn't about going where you are, it's about fighting crime by finding it.
I could see the headlines on the last one
"Worlds best Geoguesser solves internet phenomenon "
I love how I got an add for google maps watching this video😂
The Italian chief closely resembles Cesc Fabregas

Okay but why is no one talking about how scary the age regression app is, like they used it on a man and it looked EXACTLY the same as he actually did 😰
Why in the name of all that is sacred would you say "that neighbor was one of Nancy's closest friends". Obviously she's not her friend if she's sleeping with her husband.
Only just discovered your channel. Subscribed.
