Is that Santa at 27:18?
how in the world did you see that lmao
I just posted a comment for every minute and second of the video until they pinned one.
Dedication level infinite@@darkcamsonly
@@Lifeonthespot999when he said he slip through the chimney it gave it away 😂
@@Pro1938ftc3ch , that's how I knew it was gonna be Santa
The pilot who let his kids fly the pilot would have to fight me in the afterlife
Same man like who in their right mind lets kids fly a plane and thinks it won’t end horribly
@LuniettaMcKay It would have been fine if they were being properly supervised. Was Pilot error for sure, but it didn't have to happen this way.
😂😂
😂😅HA!!!
I just want to know, genuine curiosity, if everyone died how do they know the kids flew the plane?
The aeroflot disaster was so sad, a guy with no control over his pride took the lives of 75 people.
And even his very own.
Such a sad outcome.
But how does he know that the guy annoyed the other pilot? Is there a recording of them talking to each other?
@TriViuM2k22 how did they know about the guy trying to grab the door handle while in a vertical climb? I agree everyone is dead.
@@TriViuM2k22there's black box footage of it I believe
@@TriViuM2k22Yes, there are those things called black boxes. One records all sounds in the cockpit and the other records all functions of the airplane systems.
That first story is TERRIFYING. Like what the hell? How could someone be so irresponsible? This is a plane containing real people. How can you let your kids just play around like that? Now him and other innocent people paid the price for HIS own actions.
Short answer: Russian
Everyday I realize that you can’t assume for one second that another person has the same perspective on life as you. Not in any scenario. It’s kinda scary.
Exactly shi pissed me off not only were his kids untrained and literally kids but people who don’t deserve to die were on the plane 🤦🏽♀️
He apparently thought he was only in a plane with fake people.😬
He's Russian it makes sense
Today i went with my friend to a very old abandoned bridge that was for trains, made probably in the late 1890s early 1900s. When walking through the old weakend wooden planks at night i noticed the bridge was very high from the ground and i stopped and said to myself. "You know, i really dont wanna be on a mrballen episode in a few months" I JUST DONT
Haha!!! I live by this rule 😂
I'm glad you thought twice about it. Always better to be safe then sorrow. We should all know that by now from MrBallen 😊
I’d love to know where you were. Of course there is more than 1 but definitely not a ton. I bet you were super close to me 😉 and I DEFINITELY would NOT chance it either as a local…or even not I suppose…Lol! 😆
Lol I say this to myself all the time
No lie I have found myself in some questionable circumstances and told myself the same exact thing 💀
if that emergency door was right there by her room, it is the very zenith of mass stupidity that nobody checked those balconies.
I thought Emergency doors were usually alarmed.
@@davenjahtisanyes they are as a kid me and my brother were going down stairs of a hospital and I saw the emergency exit door I was like 7 I didn’t realize it’d have an alarm but it did 😭
@@iMsOiNsO that must’ve been quite an alarming shock😀
@@davenjahtisannot every emergency door
What does zenith mean?
Flight 593 is the one airplane crash that haunts me every time i think about it… so preventable
Those are the worst
That plane crash must be the most preventable accident ever. The way the autopilot was designed, if you put enough side pressure on the stick it disengaged one element of it, which the Russian pilots were not used to.
not preventable, it should have never happened 100%
💯
Russian pilots are wild, a few years earlier in 1986 a pilot tried to land a passenger with curtained cockpit windows while only looking at instruments, all that to impress his fellow officers. 70 of the 94 passengers and crew on board were killed
that last story scares me so much and is the reason why im so paranoid. if i hear someone screaming from an empty house i will be telling people. if i see bodyparts peeking out from somewhere i will be checking if theyre real. it horrifies me that many people couldve been saved if people just cared a bit more.
I would have freaked seeing legs dangling from a chimney and I would have had to go up and touch it or something even if I thought or knew it was fake. Horrible way to die.
@@dottydew3673 yup absolutely. i hate realistic halloween decorations because if someone happens to die like that people arent gonna assume the worst and theyll just ignore it. ive heard multiple stories of people finding bodies but thinking its fake just because its halloween season.
@@bananaboiled8938 well don't do dumb shit like climb down a chimney?

Hello. I am her son and this is her account. Long story short my mother died from a failed ostomy surgery and suffered from extreme agoraphobia and panic disorder. She would spend years in bed suffering from pain. But she loved your youtube channel and it was running almost all the time. She didnt even know fully what amazon prime was but instantly bought it to access more of your content and faster. I was planning to pay you for a short 30 second "Hi" video for her on the ride when she came home
I just wanted you to know how much your content helped her while she was alive. Thanks!
How are you doing?
@berensteinbear5916 sorry to hear about your mom
I’m so sorry for your loss, sir
So sorry to hear about your mom, may she rest in peace now.
I'm sorry for your loss.
The second story is crazy to me. I am a nurse and one time we had a confused go missing. We literally went room to room and checked everywhere including walking up and down every single stairwell. We knew the likelihood this patient could even go down or up stairs was very small we still checked them. Patient was found in another room safe.
They were looking for a person who tried to leave the building, not the floor below
@@graymoreghost clue is in the first word you used. "Tried' not did
There was clearly neglect from several people involved.
THERE IS NO ONE ON THIS EARTH QUITE LIKE A NURSE.
I OWE MY LIFE TO "NURSES" NOT DOCTORS, NURSES. THEY ARE OUR FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE ❤
@@graymoreghost They knew she was confused and suffering some kind of mental incapacity. It doesn't matter what they thought she "tried" to do. They should have checked everywhere. ESPECIALLY when they got a call that someone was out on the balcony -- then STILL didn't check there. The absolutely height of irresponsibility and negligence.
One thing I've learned from Mr. Ballen's videos is to never, ever use a chimney as a means of entry.
I've developed a weird fear of chimneys thanks to Mr Ballen 😂
I was about to say the same
I actually made a note to self, never climb down a chimney 😂 Not that I was considering it!
I'm not a large person, but it never occurred to me to go down a chimney. I've always wondered how Santa didn't get stuck and die.
The fact that anyone thought it was a good idea to go down a chimney as opposed to all the other methods like kicking down a door, breaking a window, finding a doggie door, checking under the mat for a hideaway key, etc. Not only for the obvious reason of getting stuck, but what if the person was home and armed? Or what if they had started a fire? …The guy won his Darwin Award 🤷♀️
This only validates my opinion that you cannot rely on strangers for help, even if youre obviously in dire need of help and crying out. Man, people are oblivious or selfish. I will never understand it. I try and help anyone I can, even if they dont ask for it directly.
Be better people. We need to look out for each other and unite.
I agree with you!
Absolutely.
Who cares he was a thief
This is such a “holier than thou” self boasting way to say that💀
That's why we need government workers. We can't rely on people to help us for free.
The 2nd story was one of the most preventable deaths I've heard in these type of stories you've told. Bewildereding, it's like looking in a drawer for something and not rummaging through it, but just staring at the open drawer
I can't believe security didn't go check either when they were notified. I've worked many security jobs and that is peak laziness. I wish they'd been arrested for that
It's insane to me that it never occurred to ANYONE that maybe Lynn went out the emergency exit literally right next to her room! She wanted to go home, where would you go if you wanted to escape the hospital? The emergency exit right next to your room or down this long hallway where you might be caught? It seems like common sense to me. What a terrible shame!
The staff and the police really failed in their search. Don’t get me started on that researcher or hospital security. At that point, they knew a patient was missing and a random patient is just hanging out on the landing and they just do nothing. I don’t know how they live with themselves wondering if she could’ve been saved had they either waited for security or if security actually went to check.
Even her family! If it were me I would've checked every nook and cranny. Maybe they didn't let the family search? And did they even find out what was wrong with her?
That's what I was thinking!! It's messed up, but, I bet the hospital staff wasn't going to be thorough thinking "eh whatever this patient is crazy they probably are out on the streets somewhere"...but ya, how could at least the family not search intensely?!?
A lot of incompetence in that second story
I completely agree
Omg for the first story I just kept thinking "are you f*cking joking me??" HE LET HIS KIDS FLY THE PLANE??!! Wow....just wow. May they all RIP
He was only pretending to let them fly as he intended for the autopilot to do the actual flying. His son pulled on the yoke too hard which disengaged the autopilot and no one noticed it turned off. So not as stupid....but still very stupid.
@@Arguing101What a dumbass. Why would anyone touch the controls? Dude thought he was at an arcade or something. Kids don't belong in the cockpit.
EXACTLY 💯 SMMH
Well, all but one RIP
I genuinely wonder if he bragged the entire time to get the other pilot out of the cockpit so he could bring the kids up there. We'll never know for sure, but you gotta be S-class oblivious to not know the person you are talking to is both checked out and annoyed. Even ppl who have trouble with social cues would pick up on the lack of engagement. So I dunno. I think it was planned and he knew had had to get the pilot out of there to get his kids up in the cockpit. I don't think it was malicious, I don't think he was hoping hiskids would crash the plane, I just think he wanted a cool dad moment and it cost the life of many, his children included.
One of your stories that still gets to me is they guy that went searching in the underground caves and got stuck wedged in and died.
The way you story tell is so captivating!
The only good thing about the Nutty Putty incident is that he had people actively trying to save him, so he didn't die alone
That cave is actually directly across the valley from where I live in Utah County. I was shocked when I found that out bcuz I'd passed it numerous times (after the guy had already died) to go rock hounding or four wheeling and I never knew I was driving right past it. If I ever get the chance to go by that way again I intend to leave a wreath and letter of condolence. So sad.
I learned of that story years ago not too long after it happened and I have been forever haunted by it. You did the same thing I did. When you heard him talking about the chimney and losing air your brain is reminded of that cave story. Awful
There was actually a movie made about that story called the Last Descent. So tragic!
Yeah, that was just horrifying!!
this is crazy, I remember watching you when you had less than 500k subs. And now you are averaging like 1.5 mil views a video. Keep up the good work and thank you for your service.
I remember the first story from Air Crash investigations. In most episodes the crash is caused by a tiny fault in the plane, or some other small mistake. Hard to believe a professional pilot could be so careless.
Yeah, when I listened to the stories I be like, What is HE thinking 😢 letting his kids "play" with the actual plane... Many innocent people become the victim 😢
You should read some of the other threads on here, there are literally ppl defending him. I felt like I was on an island by myself cause I just can’t find any excuse for such outlandish behavior. If he was that thirsty to show them he could have brought them up when it was on the ground or risk his own life and take them on a small plane but you don’t risk the lives of innocent people who paid money and expected an actual pilot to have control to let your kids “play” absolutely not!
@@sethimonfiresis5846 Or take them to one of the flight simulators. To be fair I'm not sure if they existed in the time and place this happened, I'm definitely no aviation expert, but literally ANYTHING other than letting children take control of a live flight.
Where the heck was the other pilot? The first mate.
Not so professional then..
I worked at SF General when the very sad incident happened to Lynn. The CNA that was sitting with her, her RN, and the Charge Nurse were all fired after this event. We work 12 hour shifts there, from 7pm until 7:30am was the time this happened, the CNA was ready to leave, the on coming CNA gets there at 7am, well by 7:40 they still hadn’t arrived, the CNA tried to call for help but no one came, she stepped out of the room, an absolute NO NO, to find someone to relieve her. When she stepped out, Lynn did also, going in the other direction. The hospital was going through renovation and, the rest is really sad!
I wonder why she didn’t have an alarm on her bed when they knew she was trying to walk away and was confused! That’s common sense! I know Stanford uses them often, so SF General, must also. Just such a sad situation.
It sounded like they moved her at some point because she kept running. If that is or isnt the case, why the heck was her room right by the exit? And that is the first place I would look if I were in that situation... Insanely incompetent staff was in charge of her, and she died because of it.
Did they ever figure out what was wrong with her
My question is why they didn't have a bed alarm on her
Omg so she had a 1-1
as soon as i saw aeroflot, i knew what story this was going to be. i've heard this story covered by 3 or 4 channels before this, and read tons of documentation on it.
so this really helped me see how good u are at story telling. the way you choose a subject, tell the story from his perspective in a way that is suspenseful and has a grand reveal at the end. its amazing
TBH as someone who was in STEM research, that researcher was probably working 60 to 80 hours a week and depending on how toxic the lab is, if they dont get to where-ever they were going, they might get yelled at. I was in a lab where my PI would wait outside my office to yell at me for going to the doctor for PTSD treatment so I kinda understand that researcher not sticking around.
I'm a nurse who works with dementia patients. The emergency exits would be the first places we would have looked. That's just negligence for not checking there immediately
Agreed. I work in a hospital, and this story gutted me.
@@AnastasiaFafo I know right! Story 3 is my personal nightmare fuel. But to know that that poor woman was just right out of reach and suffered a slow death because of my negligence... I couldn't live with myself after. I don't know how you do it but if one of my patients gets lost we split up. One looks outside, one looks in the rooms, the other floors are called and made aware of the situation and so on. I really don't understand how something like this could happen. And we don't even have a security team.
Yeah sounded seriously suspicious, poor lady.
And that very negligence cost them $3,000,000, but does that really cover the damage? Is there any amount that can truly erase the pain and suffering of losing your loved one? I don’t think so. Sure it may make things somewhat simpler, but it’ll never replace them. And it seems like this sort of thing only happens to people who truly care about the ones that are sick. There are so many elderly patients who are shuffled away into horrible retirement homes and their families could truly care less about them. But they don’t ever seem to have this type of answer to their own needs. The want to get rid of them. It’s a harsh truth but Those of you who work in the medical field know exactly what I mean. They aren’t the ones who are getting the huge paydays for their loss. That would be too easy. And if you ask me they shouldn’t! Such a sad story, he cared about her enough to ignore her intentions of staying home and not going to the hospital but he made damn sure she did. And this is how it ended up. Damn.
@@jackdurden466 truly very sad and tragic. I've worked in retirement homes here in Germany for the past 10 years. I'm currently a headnurse where I work and I've seen it all. The ones that want the best and visit regularly or even daily. But also the ones that can't care less. And than in the final moments they suddenly care because maybe there is something left to inherent. It's sickening. I love that this men was one who cared and its super sad how the situation ended up being.
The negligence of the SF General Hospital in story two is ASTONISHING!!! Like, seriously!! How do you just keep letting a deathly ill patient roam the halls trying to escape, then not think to check the freaking exit doors on every floor when you realize she's gone again?!?!? Absolutely insane.
I wish I could say I was astonished. Worked at a hospital years ago. It wasn't surprising to me at all.
Near death patient : (Is almost dead, starving, definitely looks unwell)
Prick : Security, come here (Leaves)
Clowns : Sure (Proceeds to not come)
That hospital is so incompetent
@@tylosenpai6920 I would have done the same thing lol
It's san francisco what do you expect
The last story is similar to Joseph Schexnider of Abbeville, Louisiana who suddenly disappeared without a trace one day in 1984. Fast forward 27 years later in 2011 and a renovation crew was tearing out a chimney in a bank right there in town. When the workers were removing the bricks, they found human bones. When the police retrieved the remains, they found Thomas’s identification. He had been right there the entire time. The police believed he got stuck in the chimney like Thomas, and remained entombed until they found him. Even had he screamed as loud as he could, the sound would have been directed upward and no one on the street would have heard him. The bank had never used fireplaces, and both of them had been sealed off when the space was occupied. That must have been a horrific way to die, but he played a stupid game and won a stupid prize.
I'm so happy for you bro, I remember in 2020 when I first subscribed you had around 100,000 subscribers and after I watched my first video I was hooked and I knew you would blow up and look how fast you grew. Almost 9 million subs, I'm happy for you and your family and keep up the great work and I hope you can keep coming up with great like button jokes, I like how when your telling us the joke you can barely keep yourself from laughing
The 2nd story scares me so badly bc my mom is currently battling stage 5 kidney disease. When we didnt know she was battling that, she too, became despondent. She didnt even know who I was. It was so scary and I can totally imagine her not in her right mind, getting stuck like poor Lynn. Rest in Peace Lynn.
There are a number of illnesses that cause mental delirium, including thyroid issues, kidney issues, brain bleeds, etc.
I really wish that they would create medical & nursing scholarships for empathetic people smart enough & competent enough to do these jobs correctly, instead of the careless, heartless people who simply could afford to be trained.
@@kallista5194 and they probably tested for all those. the first thing they'd do is a CT of the head. or if it was a competent hospital they would have.
So sorry. My mother just passed recently from a horrible rare cancer. It affected her mind too
I am so sorry. As some solice, most hospitals now days have systems in place. The hospital I work at has bed alarms and cameras in rooms that can be used with at risk patients. Also most exit doors that could lead to something like this is badge acess only unless an emergency. In an emergency you have to push the door for 15 seconds and then an alarm will sound. Just advocate for your mama and make sure they put everything they can in place to keep her safe!
Sorry to hear this. I will pray for mother 🙏
If Mr Ballen has taught me anything its to NOT EVER climb into a chimney. Not that I ever would to begin with. Another lesson Ive learned from Mr Ballen and my elderly neighbor is too check on people when you think you hear screaming. It could mean the difference between life and death.
YES!!!
Too many people are scared of "getting involved," or rather "don't want to be bothered..."
We need to ask ourselves:
WHAT IF that was ME screaming for help- only to be ignored? 😢😢😢
I would recommend to watch a full aeroflot flight 593 breakdown. It's full of mindblowing details. The most heartbreaking part is that the situation could have been fixed twice during that time and even the kid pointed out that something was wrong, but it was ignored until it was too late.
I know advertisements can be annoying, but he made a great point about therapy. After multiple combat tours, I spent a decade being miserable and keeping to myself. When I finally got the courage to get help, my life changed rapidly for the better. Within 5 years, my income quadrupled. I got married to an amazing woman and we have 3 kids. All of my personal goals were obtained.
good for you, my guy.. 👍🏻
John, I am a dance and theatre instructor, and I’ve been teaching improv for quite some time. I have been using your style/technique/approach to story telling (as well as story development and writing style for my older and adult students) as a “genre” in my classes. The students really enjoy putting the “twists” that are prevalent in your work into their sketches. They are given a topic, and within 10 minutes they must create a scene based on a few suggestions- a place, a scenario, and characters- which is then acted out. When I let the students know they’re going to be doing a sketch in the style of MrBallen, they always have an absolute blast!
That’s pretty much awesome ❤
You aren't a dance instructor. Stop telling lies online. It won't lead to anything good, I promise you.
@@marksneddon Do you know what else will lead to nothing good? Accusing people of being liars when you have no knowledge whatsoever about them. I have been teaching dance for over 20 years- ballet, tap, jazz, and various styles of partnered dance. But, you are welcome to believe whatever you wish. I’m not going to disabuse you of your notions about me- a person you know nothing about.
Alice Cooper loved the dead😮
@@marksneddonwell aren’t you a bundle of joy
"3 places you can't go" is definitely one of my favorite categories of the channel 💪🏼

I don’t understand how this video is about places one can’t go… still enjoy the stories, but don’t understand the title at all
@@kwharrison6668yeah same. i think it was a mistake to make the title to this vid. i love all his vids so not hating but idk
Same wish he wud do more going forward
I really love the Missing 411 series. I think he ran out of stories for that so thats why he stopped. Idk.
Omg that third one is a nightmare. I am claustrophobic, so thinking about him dying in that tiny space terrifies me.. and that he was probably alive during that tour...he was so close to being saved....
@MrBallen My Grandfather was the fire chief in Lake Placid who pulled Thomas out of the fireplace many years ago. I didn’t know until I shared this video with them.
This has become my Sunday tradition.
Yup right after church......
Mine too
Diddo!! ❤
It used to be my tradition 3, 4 and sometimes 5 days a week
Yeah true🎉
This is the third chimney nightmare from Mr. Ballen that I can remember (Jacquelyn Kotarac and Joshua Maddux). I think he’s probably saving lives as people learn about tapered chimneys.
There was Harley Dilley too
@@EmmaEpicWynne123 Oh I hadn’t heard that one from Mr. Ballen, I may have missed it. So sad to read.
It amazes me the lack of survival instinct on these people. Going into a confined space of unknown proportions that hasn’t been pre-verified is just never a good idea.
True. They all end the same way, and it's horrid
Wow! You have a fantastic memory!
At the time that story The Blue Door occurred, I was working Healthcare Security at a hospital in California about 100 Mi away from San Francisco General. When the story came out what happened in San Francisco, a new procedure was implemented immediately, that Security was be responsible for checking every stairwell in the hospital on every shift and hand signing a written log in each stairwell, to prevent something like this from happening at our Hospital. If anything went awry in one of the stairwells, the log was used for accountability.
Iron bars on windows is pretty much standard here in Brazil, I'm actually shocked is considered "weird".
Nothing beats a Sunday afternoon with a new Mr. Ballen story.
its evening here in South Africa 9pm to be precise also a nice time for a ballen story
Yes🎉
Actually it's Monday
Everybody badass till MrBallen pulls up with the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format.
the dreaded story format 😖
the strange and the dark are one thing but the mysterious TOO? this guy is something else
Can you stop with this same old tired comment? Every video some idiot like you posts this same thing thinking you're somehow clever 😂
bro this is so original
Yep. I just left in the middle of another video just so I could watch Mr Ballen. 😅
You're such an excellent story teller, I have a lot of mental health issues so staying focused or engaged with things is incredibly difficult, but you had my attention from the get go and was able to take in that entire first story so thank you! 😊
It’s amazing how much your channel has grown. I started watching you
When there where just 20k or so. I love watching your tales of the strange dark and mysterious. And it looks like I’m not alone….
i saw a doc on Aeroflot Flight 593 (story 1) last year and i cant believe that happened. its just crazy and tragic how it happened because not only was that pilot reckless with everyones lives but he didn think how his actions would be reckless for his children's safety.
Makes you wonder how thoughtless the rest of the population is, if someone in a role of heavy responsiblity can do something so brainless
He couldn’t figure out how to save the plane when all he had to do was let go off everything which is hard to do if it’s out of control but he wasn’t told about the planes fitures and should have been it was a French airbus brand new to the Russians. If they had one minute more it would have saved because the caption made it back but the boy was on his seat and plane was speeding to the ground g forces stopped him .
That relief pilot wasn't just reckless, he was clinically deranged thinking it was ok for his kids to be at the controls
I was a security guard for a hospital for about a week. Low pay and only one day of training. The training consists of mainly walking around the hospital top to bottom while switching your post every few hours. We have to scan a dot on a wall to say we were on this floor or this room, including emergency stairwells. The fact security didn't check a patient laying down unconscious in a stairwell astonishes me.
I worked in a hospital for awhile myself, on 3 occasions.
I was on the maintenance crew .
It's unbelievable how much ridiculous drama there was, considering it was a crew of men.
Pretty much a no win scenario.
I used to deal with security at a hospital a lot and they were tough as nails. They were constantly dealing with psychiatric and homeless, chasing people and restraining and they got paid well for it! That being said, people get lazy and don't want to deal with the b.s. and I'd wager that's what happened. Either they half assed it or she was in such a position that they could see the landing, but just not her. Heartbreaking.
well to be fair who sees a sick patient and calls security? isn't that the job of say a doctor? I suspect the researcher called saying there is a homeless person sleeping in the stairwell
@@SilverMe2004she was probably still in her hospital gown so it would have been clear she was a patient
@@noblewarrior7393Nope, Ballen said she got dressed and put her jeans on before she left her room.
I love every single one of your stories, but these are my absolute favorites. ❤ Thank you for your time and effort.
Literally love Mr. Ballen’s stories! Thank you for providing us with great stories as always! Blessings!
The case of Lynne is just so astoundingly tragic in so many ways.
I wanted to skip that story, because it already made me uncomfortable in the beginning.

Sorry mrballen ive been slacking ive missed your vids have been dealing with the VA and my mental health issues. I want to thank you for you videos they keep me on track.
I love these!! And your story telling!! Helps me calm when my depression/anxiety starts to get the best of me. Thank you!!
That third story is gonna give me nightmares for a week. That's my worst nightmare. Like, literally, I keep having a recurring nightmare of something like this happening to me. It often involves me falling in headfirst into a hole like that. Sometimes, there's rising water at the bottom
Oof. I know these feels. I think I might skip the last story 🙈 nightmares and sleep paralysis on my end! Shit sucks
I have had dreams like this since i was a teenager! Sometimes there are things at the bottom of the hole that dont make sense, like a bomb that isnt exploded but its all the way at the bottom.
You ain't gotta worry. People don't accidentally end up in those spots. Don't wedge yourself in anywhere and you'll be fine.

Actually though, and it usually stops me from doing the risky thing🫡
Sometimes when I am doing totally normal things I hear Mr. Ballens narration: this was a totally normal thing for her to do, but yet, nothing was normal.

in practice its like "did you check the stairwells" ... "i thought you did?"

Season 6 episode 9 “kid in the cockpit”
@@jessicuh292 Thank you! 😀
These are the stories I miss the most! I always get so excited when MrBallen finally blesses us with another anthology of people boldly going where they shouldn't go.
My kids and I were Soldiers' Angels for about 8 years. We had two to four adopted Heroes that whole time. We committed to a letter every week and a package every month for each one. The most important thing we sent was love. I ended every letter with "Hugs from home from Jody, Takla and Joe". We would have been proud to have adopted you!
I have to tell you what happened at the fair one year! I was wearing a Soldiers' Angels shirt when I stopped at a booth of Army recruiters. One of them saw my shirt and said, "Soldiers' Angels! You people are amazing!". He said that on his third tour of Iraq, their kitchen was blown up in a mortar attack. They were restricted to two MREs a day. They got back from patrol one day and found a HUGE pile of boxes waiting for them. They couldn't imagine what was in them. The boxes were all crammed with food, and they were all from Soldiers' Angels. They all had notes saying "We're proud of you" and "We love you". They had a feast that night, and they still had food left from us when they got their new kitchen. I told him that my kids and I had sent two of those boxes, and I didn't think I'd get my hand back! That was just amazing. I had to take my kids back to meet him. He insisted.
So happy for you and your UA-cam success. 😊 Keep it up.
I can just imagine the pilot screaming at the copilot in hell like "YOU MORON!"
Edit: changed it to hell for y'all, please stop blowing up my notis

My father was 65 and in a wheelchair at a rehabilitation facility. He kept saying he wanted to go home. The nurse found him clothed and rolling toward the exit. He had a cell phone and was going to roll toward the road and have my mother pick him up. They called and said they were going to low jack his wheel chair. When he got within 20 ft, the alarm would go off in the nurses desk. What a nightmare.
Thank you for your service MrBallen.
Thank you for your service Mr. Allen❤❤❤
Why would you let your kids take control of the plane?? And no one thought of checking the exits??? Both could've easily avoided. 😭😭😭
They all could have been. Negligence in some fashion 😕 last one was negligence for his own safety.
I'm confused as to why the copilot even allowed it to happen???
It's more complicated than how MrBallen made it sound - though he's still a good storyteller. The usual telling is that the daughter was too little to make the controls do anything, but the son pulled them enough to adjust the autopilot slightly and nobody noticed the plane was off course until it crashed into the ground because they couldn't see outside. I don't fault MrBallen for making it a better story though.
He didnt let his kids take control of the plane. He had the autopilot on. The boy was just stupid enough to pull on the yoke so hard it shut the autopilot off giving him control of the plane.
@@bradsanders407 still why let kids in when you know they're so young and one slight error it's all doomed.
THE RESURGENCE OF A LEGENDARY VIDEO SERIES!!!
No but seriously I’m pretty sure one of the first videos I saw from Mr. Ballen was a Top 3 places you can’t go (and people who did anyway). Been a huge fan ever since, and this was definitely a stellar way to finish off my weekend
I love these types of stories. I just wish he would post more. I don’t care for the podcast as much.

I went through the same thing with my stomach. For a long time three hospitals no one prescribed anything. Drinking Pepto by the bottle baking soda and water to help with the pain. My Lord i wanted to die. Then a doctor with just me telling her gave me a prescription then after 3 years i was healed. Im still angry that 3 hospitals could not help me
Doctors anymore are.more worries about the DEA and licensing boards than they are with their patient's well being.
how did u heal?
@@meggi8048good morning I was with my girlfriend at her doctors and he are better yet she seen me in pain and just gave me a prescription out of the blue and it works I'm just upset with I went to three different hospitals to try to find a cure for it and the doctor took one look at me sit here try this one to the CVS local pharmacy and they gave me a prescription for the stomach meds if you need it I have it
I think the reason Lynn was never found is because even though they were searching they didn’t actually care to find her, I doubt anyone was looking that hard for her which is sad.
That’s a bit harsh you don’t know all the individuals involved.
@@FLAMEOHOTMAN15well it's either that or they were all incredibly stupid, either way it's harsh 🤷
@@FLAMEOHOTMAN15it’s obvious that’s what happened. Staff was probably told to keep an eye out for anything unusual but I promise you an actual search party never happened.
@@BestShootermanUbz that’s a whole lot of assuming mate. To say they all didn’t care is disingenuous. Regardless mistakes were made. First one being putting a potential runner by the fucking exit
@@FLAMEOHOTMAN15 You must be a part of the medical staff because no way in hell would she not have been found if they literally took any effort in finding her. Her family won the lawsuit for a reason.
I was a medic for 10 years and have seen my share of dead bodies and I can remember 2 of the worst sights I’ve ever seen with dead bodies and 1 was in a car accident after it exploded into a fireball and all that was left was the outer shell of the car, the springs of the seat, his shriveled head in the backseat, a lot of bones, and the trunk of his body. It was bad and I had to get his body out in the dark while police were asking if I wanted bbq sauce with it🤢. The other was a man with dementia who went missing in the middle of summer for 2 weeks and that summer it was in the upper 90’s and 100’s in NC. He went out into the woods and shot himself in the head. Gruesome is an understatement with half of his head gone from the shotgun blast, he was swollen, covered in maggots, whatever of his head was left was black and rotten. I called my boss and said we needed air tanks and biohazard suits because it was that bad. Everyone said I turned green and I believe it. And the smells are as bad as everyone says and you can’t forget it.
oh man I'm sorry....
How awful 😢 I wish people understood the value of people like you, doing the unthinkable so that others don't have to.
Those police should be ashamed of themselves, that person had value.
Yeesh! I understand those who are first responders generally developed a twisted sense of humor as a coping mechanism for what they deal with regularly, but there is a time and place for jokes and that wasn't it!
That was someone's loved one.😢
Idk what to say. I hope you take care of your own mental health. I can’t imagine. Thank you for doing your work.
@@IdratherbeinHobbiton I just told him to f*ck off and I knew they wouldn’t arrest me. And yes we do at times have a sick sense of humor but yes he was someone’s son, father, and husband (I know his wife was pregnant at the time). It was awful what we saw
I just found this channel. You are an exceptional storyteller, you had me on my toes the whole time.
It’s crazy I actually saw an article about the plane crash earlier today on Facebook and then I decided to watch your video. Although I’ve heard this tragic story before. Sad all together.
The amount of stupidity should have had that hospital shut down.
Or at least someone fired
absolutely!
I've been to SF General a couple times in the past. It's terrible reputation is well earned.
They should have had a patient sitter in her room at all times. They knew she tried to escape and wanted to leave, they should have had someone watching her at all times. Maybe that hospital doesn't have patient sitters idk, but they exist for reasons like this.
San Fransisco General must have the worst Security, how are the stairwells not patrolled, did they even review the cameras 🙄
The second story is even worse than described here because 4 sheriff deputies were told to check all 10 stairwells and every single one of them missed the one stairwell with Lynne for one reason or another. Also, the nurses were told to watch Lynne at all times which also was not done. This is a complete cluster
Been here since 45k. Regardless of my navy husband relating & absolutely loving you etc, we just knew you were gonna make it Mr.Ballen. Always admired the way you work.
Thank you for yet another great and informative video. Watching from the UK England.
Guys, pro tip: if you think you hear someone yelling for help, GO FIND THEM. Don’t just ignore it.
If you see something out of the ordinary, address it. Two stories here could have ended very differently if one person had done something about what they saw. Even if it’s not your fault or your problem, *make it your problem*.
I'll make sure to find whatever has been yelling for help outside my house at night.
(I live alone in the forest)
@@jim9990 They just want to know if you can tell them how to get to Bells Canyon.
but what if its like someone tryna kidnap you or smth
Yes but in both cases there's a high probability that the person was dead already. Poor woman was probably in a psychosis and the guy who chose to climb down a chimney was already insane because that's such a terrible idea. Chimney sweeps were tiny kids back in the day because an adult human won't fit
There’s a catch to that. It’s a two edged sword. There’s criminals that play advantage of peoples sympathy. But falling for someone’s “distress”, you can end up carjacked and possibly hurt.
I highly recommend Mentour Pilot's full video on the Aeroflot crash if you want more details from a professional perspective. He's a compelling storyteller in his own way, too.
I've heard from some other videos that if they had let the auto pilot regain control of the plane, they wouldn't have crashed.
so glad to find someone else who loves him! haha that's cool.
Love Mentour pilot
@@EmmaDilemma039 If I remember correctly, the autopilot couldn't regain control after the kid tilted the airplane past a certain angle (a feature, not a bug), but they didn't know it was programmed like this, so they didn't notice until it was too late.
@sendmorerum8241 the versions of the story I've heard, the pilots did try to regain control of the plane, but they banked upward too much and stalled the plane. By the time they leveled the plane it was too late.
Hello Mr. Ballen! This video is phenomenal with great delivery and awesome background music. Thank you for all of your posts. 🙂✨👍
Lynn was in renal failure … she had a buildup of urea in her bloodstream which led to her mental “confusion”. Her confusion was then compounded by the dehydration she would have experienced during the time she was “missing”. A person can go without food for about two weeks, but not water … what an ugly death she must have had.
I am watching all his episodes repeating what hes saying to learn Englush lol. I am a korean girl… hes really a great story teller!! He has a excellent communication skills. My English is improving a lot Thanks so much 💕💕💕☺️
Good luck!
That’s so sweet, good luck on your language journey!!!
He uses very good and clear English with good grammar! Great choice, and your English is excellent, too!
I love hearing stories like that, I hear it said a lot how much the show "friends" helped people with learning English, it's awesome 😊
This is wonderful! Some advice would be not to include “a” before excellent. A better way to write that sentence would be “He has excellent communications skills”
Enjoy!
Hey MrBallen, convinced one of my old Army pals to reach out to Better Help. We are both disabled combat vets (Army 01-05) we live on opposite coasts so him having something like this, that can be there when his friends can’t, and give him the help he needs is huge. Especially because it’s separate from any VA politics. He is doing a lot better. Just wanted to give a shout out and thanks. Appreciate it MrBallen.
Real therapy for armyvets costs too much in the USA? Out here BetterHelp is the worst therapy you can have.
better help sells your data.
@@drawgam2946both of the things you said are true yes. Therapy is super expensive here, even for people who were promised they’d be taken care of. If you *_can_* find an affordable care or sliding scale program, a lot of times they still don’t have the resources and only have limited treatment options for minor psychiatric conditions. Like our county-level mental health only covers depression, anxiety, and bipolar. And If the medication services don’t work for you the first try or if you don’t get along with your providers you aren’t allowed to switch, they’ll just remove you from the system.
BetterHelp sucks for sure and isn’t much cheaper but it’s better than constantly calling the crisis line, and at least they let you switch if you don’t get along with your LMHP 😅
I definitely recommend checking psychology today though, a lot of therapists/psychologists/psychiatrist have telehealth options that aren’t even remotely part of the betterhelp system. Just make sure they’re properly licensed and educated for mental health and not like, a cuddle therapist, because that’s a thing 🤣
Better help is not a good solution at all, just read online about it. You can like Mr Ballen without liking the content he sponsors, just food for thought.
@@zZzKkingzZz That too and had a lot of complaints about extra fees. Mr Ballen should be ashamed to keep promoting these scams.

Better help doesnt have certified psychiatrists to handle the volume of patients... They're spending the money on Sponsers and advertisements and not on the Psychiatric Aid needed to help people with mental health issues.... Just so everyone knows
Tell me about it and every one is a different price. They don't take any social security people either I found out. The woman I spoke to there was license and had 37 years in was so helpful and gave me numbers to other services and resources. She didn't have too but she was what I wish I could find in a shrink. 😢😢it was a complete meltdown of disappointment when I asked well what if I pay out of pocket but I can't with the years I need to do this new therapy I need. Best regards to you I hope you can find one for you that fits somewhere in this world. This just solidified mental health care or lack thereof is almost unobtainable for the people that just can't afford not to get help. Our mental health is in the toilet in this county yet we have real people with real issues, I'll share mine was being kidnapped at gunpoint and beaten repeatedly. I just don't want meds and this place also will work with people who are willing not to do medication and it was so hard when that door closed last week. So I'm just going to keep kicking the doors down as I have been for the last 5 now almost 6 years and it's a living nightmare. God bless you.
I understand you don’t find it helpful but it helped my sister
@@Starbaby713maybe they figured Ur sis was so far gone that they had to help!! But that doesn't help everyone else!!

I get the last homeowner having bars on his windows and a security system. If I were living there, I'd actually even plank the doors once inside. I didn't work hard my entire life and go through the crap I've had to just to have somebody break in and either squat or ransack the place.
I'm so used to seeing them in Europe! After living in North america, I was surprised by the homes here in Spain. Every yard is fenced, all barred windows, etc. I don't think I could go back to fence-less backyards!
Particularly not when squatters are often heavily protected by the law
I remember that story about Lynn, I live in SF, & I have always avoided hospitals way before that had ever happened. They likely thought it was a homeless person using drugs, so they kept walking. There’s a huge problem here with all that!
Which is even worse they just kept walking! Drug user or not they're still someone's family! And obviously in her case it wasn't that so they did even worse by assume! Glad the family sued and won!
I lived in the Tenderloin during my 'heroin days' in the 80s.
@1694cgrnt I won't help people anymore because I was nearly unalived one time trying to save somebody who was faking. It's like The Boy Who Cried Wolf. I'd be like, "I'm not falling for that again". I just hope I can resist the urge if it ever happens again. Or maybe I would need more proof to validate a genuine rescue situation.
That kind of stigma must end. Also, if they thought she was on drugs, all the more reason to intervene. There's no excuse.
But if she was outside the 4th floor door, wouldn’t someone question how she got into the stairwell? If the emergency exits there is anything like my apartment building, the bottom exit door is exit only and doesn’t open from the outside to get in.
I wish I was ar least half as good as you at telling stories. Man, the way you tell them is so amazing!
@MrBallen I'm here for you for whatever you need.
I lost my dog, my best friend, today at 14 years old. Got her at 4 months old back in 2009. I am devastated but your video gave me some peace and comfort since she would always snuggle up next to me and watch your videos. It was like one of our things. “3 places you can’t go” is one of my top favorite story lines. Thank you❤
I'm so sorry for your loss. Dogs are amazing little creatures. 😢
Sincere Condolences 🐾🐾❤️
❤️
I can feel your pain from here. Take care of yourself x
I’m sorry to hear about your poor puppy dog. I was a complete wreck when I lost my dog. And then I lost my cat a couple years later, he was 20 years old when he passed away and my best friend from day one. So I completely understand your pain and am so sorry for your loss. Most people don’t understand that it feels just like losing a part of your family.
Th fact they knew Lynn would try and escape and they just left alone is ridiculous and mind blowing that they didn’t have some stand watch or something. She should never have been left unattended.
I was in hospital is MS and wanted to leave to check on my dog though I was very sick ( my dog and I were both attacked) ..I was told if I left my room would not be held for me But that it was my decision...
It's a hospital not a prison. You can leave any time
Unless you are under a legal psych hold, you have constitutional rights and can leave any time.
Love these! The succulent table was super inspiring. I’m always amazed at what you find! I recently moved to an area that lives up to most people’s idea of what a thrift store is (full of smelly, broken junk)
My kids love your channel. They love to listen to your newest stories right before bedtime. They share your channel with their classmates all the time
I love Sundays with Mr. Ballen!!❤❤

Yea he cool people
Crazy pilot 😮
I lived in San Antonio as a kid and we and all of my family's houses had bars on the windows. It was very common...especially back then in the 80s/90s. I know it's a major fire hazard but I have never felt safer than when I had those bars.
death traps for sure and isn't stopping a gun
