It's brilliant how the dead can take the clothes they were wearing to the 'spirit world.' "Here we see Jonathan haunting the hotel in his favourite Nike hoodie.."
Xander Asian lore kinda says that they take with them whatever they had on them when they died. Also, it's tradition to burn money or "gifts" for them to have in the afterlife.
Top 5s videos are always awesome. My channel actually does similiar creepy subjects if you're itnerested. It might give you something to do while we're all waiting for another great top 5s video.
@@doloresbriseno2567 The taxi doors are controlled by the drivers in Japan. So the driver opened the door for a passenger and shut it thinking the person came in but then is surprised to see no one there so he probably went out the taxi to make sure he didn't hurt anyone but was probably surprised again to see no one there...
I remember when I was watching your videos, when you were around couple hundred subscribers bro, and I always thought to my self, why doesn't this guy haveore subscribers? Your videos are awesome dude, your like a detective when it comes to your Vids which makes it more awesome and intriguing.. Glad, to.have seen your channel grow. 👍👍
The last two clips were certainly deserving of their rankings! Fake or not, creepy indeed! The way the figure in clip #2 was standing there combined with the green tinge of the footage made it super spooky! And #1 was just crazy!!! Awesome video, can't wait for what else you have in store this month, keep up the great work!
You know, you present all these videos professionally. But what impress me the most is your mannerisms and politeness. You are also honest about what you don't know or sure. And your sensibility and sympathy toward victims in some crime videos is admirable. You must be raised right! Kudos!
I'm English and I can't pinpoint where Top5 is from. His accent is kind of South England, where I'm from, but there are words that he pronounces as a Northerner would. I'm bamboozled by it.
Dude just in case u read this I've been watching your videos for over a year. I never mist one. I just want you to know u do a greate job and i hope you continue doing it
I love that I can watch these videos and not have to worry about being jump scared at any point, it makes things like this more fascinating rather than scary.
Good to train your eyes for what can't be explained, I can see our mind trying to show us from our memory, What was in these videos, But that last one was fubar for seeing it as a robe. But ppl see whatthey want to see.
The last 2 videos are very interesting...Both show someone getting into the cabs..the first having opened the door and closing it, but no one is visibly there...THIS is what the top 5's are all about!! Kudos to you!
Oh my.. the 2nd to last video gave me chills, my arm hairs were all standing!! This was after she said, "Did I die?" Ahhhh so creepy! So good! Keep up the awesome work, Top5s!!!!
Most CCTV ghosts are just old tapes being re recorded over. After 100s of re recordings there are artifacts left where a lot of people have moved. A lot of other stuff than people is static, so the overlay is not noticeable on buildings etc. Tapes are after all only physical objects with printed data. Printing new data on top so many times is bound to leave some traces.
That might haxe been an failure in the automatic door system, or something remotely did it. Given that Japan is one of the (if not THE) technological most advanced countries, it would be far off for them to have automatic taxi doors for the weaker elder population.
except now a days most CCTVs dont use actually VHS tapes to record... its saved to a hard drive or memory card... But im not super tech savvy so idk if it could cause an imprint that way or not.
I remember your early days. I watched your videos every night, sometimes for an hour. I'd even rewatch a lot of them. Love your content, Top5s, and I am so glad you're moving up. And you haven't changed at all! Guess there is something to the "do what you love, be who you are" thing.
Okay, my view on ghosts. Why be scared? They're dead. In other words, if I awaken to something in the middle of the night, I would be relieved to find out it's a ghost hovering over my bed, than a giant man with a ski mask and a machete about to chop my ass up.
I think its human instinct to be scared because its unknown and our mind cant process what is going on that is destroying the laws of physics its also instinct to be scared of something that you would consider a predator as you don't know how to get rid of or destroy something that your mind knows it cant if it were to turn out to try to hurt you and be hostile you would have no means of defense with a person braking in its the same thing but you are able to defend yourself such as shoot them or fight them off with a ghost well how can you kill something that is already dead how can you fight something that you hands would go through however they can touch and hurt you
CCTVs are generally cheap and their main purpose is to record accidents or robberies for insurance purposes (rarely ever used to identify a suspect who is robbing a store). I don't think people buy the expensive ones to record ghosts xD
Well, really what I mean is, when u watch your local news and they post a picture on the screen and say "if u you've seen this man, please call..." And the pic is distorted and of bad resolution. Or a murder goes down and you can't make out anything because the video studders so much. No, i don't think businesses should buy high quality recording equipment for the sole purpose of catching an apparition on tape.
I've been with you since the beginning 😊me & my boyfriend hit the lights and watch your videos late at night it's our thing, enjoy your videos they are creepy & informative!
I've actually SEEN ghosts on two different occasions, years apart (and had the living shite scared out of me each time) - and, yet, I STILL get the creeps from watching these damn videos. Funny, old world!
is it just me or the more bullshit videos you see the less I believe in ghosts? c'mon can a fucking ghost appear, put on a sweater wave hi and then take it off for once and for all??? no instead we have shit just flying through the air like props and doors open and shut...never seen a convincing ghost video, even though I kinda believe in them. same thing with ufos.
Great video again! The old cctv ghost videos were the reason I started watching your channel over a year ago. I watched a couple, then ended up watching every video on your channel up until that point (and every video since). I got a bit addicted to the ghost footage thing and looked all over youtube for it but got sick of seeing the same few videos in every countdown, but this new video is 5 that I've never seen before!
1st is ghost image over old re-recorded tape. Second is clearly smoke from something hence the fire alarm. Third is a spider making a web, hence the spiral movements and you can even see it's fangs and a couple legs in the last image and I suspect that is why they ended it there as it was coming more into focus. Forth is just fake. Last one it was just a crappy camera and that camera just did not know what to do when that guy stood halfway behind the pole so took some of the shadow and his shirt and made it into a new image. It even has the same shape as the back of his shirt when he is standing there. You can also see a somewhat similar thing happen in the background (upper left) where what looks to be a woman walking with a man and the woman just pops into view from being just a black mass. Same with the upper left where that persons walking and the camera morphs what looks to be a person from out of thin air walk right into them and disappear.
My ethnicity has a really strong belief in spirits and monster (since in the past, we've lived in the mountains with forests all around), so every time you go out and it's late, they always say to have a partner to go home with you or else something will follow you home or if you are in a group, have an even amount of people or else one member would be paired with a spirit (which is not good)
Share your ghost stories here: I'll start off. The one person I trust the most in the world is my dad: he told me a story of when he had just married my mom and went on a small vacation. My great grandmother lived in a small house my family calls "the camp" since they have been going there for generations. He said that one night he was sleeping and felt a freezing air, he looked to the door (where a window was near the top), and saw someone starring in. He stayed still and felt cold and uneasy like he was drained, and saw that the man had a suit. The next morning he told everyone what he saw, and my great grand mother was shocked, he showed a picture of her late husband and my dad said it was the exact person he saw. He said he had a brown suit, and she said that he was buried in a brown suit. The one reason I believe this is because my mom told a story how she saw the same figure while walking past the den to go to the bathroom. Both of my parents swear to god that they saw it.
I've seen the same shadowy figure at my grandma's house twice (and she's actually seen him once!). There was also the time with the baby grave. The first time, I was about 4. I woke up in the middle of the night and I swear I heard screaming outside. Like blood curdling someone's-dying-tonight. In a neighborhood of retirees. At 2am. Being a small child, I went to find my parents, who were sleeping downstairs. Except, a black shadow figure was standing in front of the stairs. He held up his finger and told me to "ssh". Instead, I screamed and he vanished as someone flipped on the hall light. The second time, I was about nine. I was home alone, for some reason. I was in the kitchen, trying to grill a cheese most likely. The window over the stove, looked back into the backyard. There was an abandoned falling down shed/ garage/ dog run in the back corner. Something caught my eye and I looked into the yard. Then I saw the shadow figure jumping in and out of the dog run. We have a private, gated drive, so if all the cars were gone no one would think "Let's fuck with someone today". The neighbors back there had the same situation and I know they never used the place in the summer. I was kind of frozen. He then vanished into the dog run and I tried to urge myself to run. He had no face, but I swear he reappeared, and I felt like he was staring directly at me this time. I screamed and hit the kitchen floor. My family found me a couple hours later, barricaded in an upstairs bedroom. After telling this to my Grandma, years and years later, she passed on a story. I didn't think she'd believe me, because I had a clear memory of her mocking me about the baby I claimed was crying under this giant, ancient tree in the same yard. Us kids were never allowed to play under there, because all the yard under the branches was covered in poison ivy (which interestingly enough, stopped when the branches did). So when 2-3 year old me started rambling about a baby, I was dismissed by the adults. My Mom says I came tottling up from the backyard, to where all the adults were chatting on the front porch. I was in a fit. I started crying about a baby, right then, that was crying under the big tree. My older cousins reported that they'd been pulling me away from the tree all afternoon. They swore that they hadn't been antagonizing me and that there was nothing under the tree. My Dad still went to check and came up empty. Fast forward about 15 years. A big storm, combined with a local tree blight, spelled the final days for a tree that we found out was over 300 years old. So, the tree had to come down. While digging up the roots, the workers found something. It was a small headstone, with two initials and a last name that was in our family tree (the house was a family home). We found it typically marked baby graves. There was no date and no remains were uncovered, though they could have turned to dirt years ago. My aunt called us, sort of hysterical, because the minute she had all the facts she made the connection to a fuzzy memory of my childhood. There is indication we've lost babies in the family, but they're all marked in the family plot. There's no missing names. So the theory is that the babe was a still born, or a babe of dishonest birth who didn't live past infancy for whatever reason and wasn't added to the family tree. But, back to my Grandma. I was telling her about the shadow man (this was before the Big Reveal). She revealed that one night, she saw him. She woke up to a sudden burst of icy cold air. Her room has always been muggy. That's how she likes it. So, of course, she thought maybe something had happened and someone was entering her room at some ungodly hour. Instead, she saw her closed door and a tall shadow figure, standing by the window. All he did was stare out the window, before he flickered and vanished. This was almost directly below where I encountered him the first time. That window has a pretty good view of the shed, where I saw him years later. Our theory is that maybe, just maybe, he's buried out there. There are indications that a previous family member owned a few household slaves. It is possible that they were buried in the back corner, and then their graves desecrated when the garage was built. It's also possible he slept (forcefully) with one of the female slaves and there bastard child was buried separately. I will say that when the shed was torn down just a few years ago, there were no indications of human remains.
Not really a "ghost" story but, late one night my doorbell rang. I was in the middle of watching a scary movie while eating a bag of "flaming hot" Doritos so I didn't answer it. About 5 minutes later it rang again and this time it rang like 10 times in a row which seemed a bit excessive and urgent. So reluctantly I got up and opened the door. To my shock and surprise there on my doorstep stood the Loch Ness monster, an 8 story tall crustacean from the Paleozoic era! I said "what the hell you want at this hour you Gott Damn Monsta?"!! And do you know what he said??? *"I need about tree fitty".* Well I told him to go away because we Work for our money in This house!
Back in 1998, in the Sunset district of SF, at my old apartment when i lived with my mom and grandma, the bathroom fan was very loud, so i would pee in the dark at night, only lit by the moonlight. One night, while peeing in total silence, i felt and heard directly in my left ear, someone whisper "SHHH" i immediately screamed WHAT!WHAT! WHAT! then ran and turned the light on. My mom came to the door sleepily asking what was wrong, i said "nothing, sorry." 3 months later i went to the living room window, as i heard some car burn rubber outside, at around midnight and wanted to see what it was since we lived in a residential area. We had a big mirror in the living room, and i remember looking at myself in it, then turning to the outside window when again, in my left ear i heard SHHH...I said "oh no no no", then ran to turn every light on. I have never found out what happened at that flat, the history, but I am very intrigued to do so. Ive never told my Mom this, though I very much want to. Still freaks me out thinking about it, in particular the bathroom SHHH ...fucking what hell
Abigail very interesting story and you told it very well. I think what you and your grandmother saw was a residual haunting. However, what you saw at 9 may have been an intelligent haunting. It sounds like it knew it was being observed. Had it meant you any harm being behind a locked door wouldn't have stopped it. You may have startled it as much as it startled you. :o)
I live in a small town where almost everyone knows eachother and if something happens everyone hears about it. Well the story going around town was of a local drunk who was hit and killed on the towns main road. The road i used to walk to school. Rumors were going around saying the car decapitated the man and also ripped out one of his arms. needless to say it left a gruesome image in my head. Every night me and my brother used to lay out our clothes on our beds so we wouldn't be in a rush for school the next morning. keep in mind i also used to sleep in front of a mirror but i wasn't scared of it because i shared rooms with my brother. One night i woke up to strange noises that sounded like quiet sobbing. I first though it was my aunt, who would hum while preparing lunch for my uncle. I checked the alarm clock which read 2am, way too early for her to be up cooking. I was getting a little freaked out so i turned on my night light which didn't give out too much light but just enough to see my surroundings. I was now staring directly at the mirror in front of my bed. I see something moving in the mirror and my first thought is, it has to be my reflection, but i was completely still. I focused on the mirror and couldn't believe what i was looking at. There was a man sitting in front of the mirror with his back against my bed. Legs stretched out towards the mirror, missing both of his arms. His head was swinging back and forth like he couldn't keep it balanced on his shoulders. I screamed for my uncle who came running into my room. I told him what i saw but he dismissed it by saying it was just my clothes i had laid out for school. It still didn't explain the sobbing and the creepy head swinging. 15 years later and i still get the heebie-geebies when I'm looking at a mirror.
what I love most about this channel, is the comment section. Most videos' comment sections are always filled with spam, and negative comments. But, looking through your channel, you have more positive comments about you, and your amazing work and actual comments about your videos than most of what I've seen. I love you, your videos and all the hard work you do, and this entire fanbase. whether or not these ghost videos are hoaxes or not, doesn't really matter. Keep doing what you're doing :)
Thank you so much for uploading so much! It must take a lot of work and energy but I, along with all of your subscribers, appreciate it. Keep up the good work!
How dare you speak for me! I don't appreciate it at all. In fact I expect it! Many more of you worthless worms should be contributing to my amusement and entertainment!
I was watching this while home alone when I watched the one with the apparition at the top of the stairs, and when it was done I was too afraid to go to the bathroom which was at the top of my stairs.
Connor Lee I'll give you a tips for if that ever happens again, do what I do grab your balls, say "fuck it!" And then charge into it. Trust me dude it works all the time, and if you're female then just do the same
I've been a truck driver for my company for about 15 years now, driven all over Scandinavia and I actually have seen a lot of strange things. Some is probably the result of being tired from lack of sleep and just getting stressed, but some things can't be explained. Seen people standing beside the road that just vanish when you slow down, heard some creepy shit on my radio and the worst thing I saw was a field full of people at night, stopped my truck in case it was a car crash or something but the second I got out of the truck all my lights died (extremely unlikely, run two set-ups with a battery backup) and the warm summer night was cold as ice all of a sudden. Not ashamed to admit I got the fuck out of there fast as hell, running dark for about a km before the lights went back on.. Wish I had a camera in my truck back then. Now I do just in case.
About the taxi door opening; Japanese cabs have automatic doors, operated by the driver. The video is still weird, but the ghost definitely didn't open the door
True... although the woman vanishing is a bit odd; she can't be seen walking away either forward or behind. I suppose it's possible she went back into a building directly beside the taxi, but it is strange - and the cabbie is apparently confused by her sudden disappearance as well.
Japanese taxi doors are automatically open and close for passengers. It's a part of their service. It's not 'someone open the taxi door...'. But, the figure in the video is interesting.
Glitch Paint you can contact him now...why wait? lol but be careful some evil spirits like to act like a family member that has passed to get you to do them favors. Make a shrine or sum of that nature. leave him gifts while he is in the after world.....call on him then give it a few days or so...all of a sudden you'll hear knocks on the wall ect especially while alone. I talk with spirits all the time...well they talk to me. and make sure you are on a high vibration/frequency....that helps keep the evils away.
My father passed away almost 6 years ago and ever since I've had some extremely vivid dreams of him, I often wonder if this is his way of being with me from the after life. I like to think so anyway.
i had vivid realistic dreams of my nan after she passed, where we would have conversation and remind each other of the things we used to do together,and she was showing me spirits of passed family members.@@TooLameToDie
top 5s so far you're the best top 5 channel ever i mean you're like a detective and all the things you put and mix up to make a good quality video is amazing i honestly wish you the best m8, have a good one :)
I could have sworn the Oklahoma one was debunked years ago by some kid who admitted to tying a string to a toy and hanging it over the camera. The first one shown looks like footage from a recorder that has been overwritten many many times resulting in the 'ghost'.
I was one of your first (probably thousand) subs, started watching you all the way back in 2014 and my, you've always had some really good stuff. Keep it up, this is amazing stuff, whether any of those videos turn to be fake or not.
I think you do an amazing job on your top 5's paranormal activity videos....of all the work regarding the same phenomenon, you seem to pull it off and professionally present it, better than many others, to allow the viewer to determine what they think,!!!! Thanks for your dedication and commitment....(From an Australian fan)
Mehdi Lebowski the security cameras have to be "shitty" because good cameras use up too much memory, the amount of memory needed to have HD high quality video running for the amount of time they need it too would take Terrabites! Any computer that would have enough space to store all that much memory either dosnt exsist or costs several billions of dollars.
CCTV footage generally was always on tapes. Those tapes get used over and over again It leads to imprints on them and there you go, there's your "ghosts".
Maybe I will start to believe in that stuff, when I see something like that recorded with modern high end camcorders, instead of these old vhs and pixel crap.
Just reading your comment in 2021 and I was skeptical too until 2 years ago when I moved to my current home and actually seen an apparition with my own eyes 👀 my place is severely haunted lol
the taxi door one is very probably fake as you can see a person moving away from taxi just after the door is closed. she probably decided to not take the taxi after all and the driver exited the vehicle in pursuitnof the lost fare, checking if she would come back. if the video had audio im sure it would clear up the situation
The two are not mutually exclusive. Culturally, a lot of Japanese are inclined to believe in ghosts, so a bad vid or "mysteriously disappearing fare" can cause a lot more uproar than really warranted.
IH8YH True also - just watch Japanese TV. It's like a nation of drama queens sometimes. :-) (Don't get me wrong - I love Japan. But they are ... different.)
of course they are different, thats why i like them so much haha. but that is not just a japanese thing. if you follow paranormal podcasts or something on instagram or twitter, and they post vacation photos or road trips etc, EVERYONE is like "i think theres a ghost in the window in the back" or anything like that. its ridicolous. everyones an attention whore lol
Hey hi buddy I am from India n have been watching ur videos since last one year which r really good n amazing.Keep uploading videos please,all my family members love to watch them. God bless you!! :-)
#2 is very obviously fake: -In Japan the taxi doors open automatically when the driver presses a button. -The girl that can be seen when he pulls up is clearly a real woman.
Congratulations on the growth of your channel. It is clear you put a lot of work into all videos. Although some seem to be either a bit cheesy or outright fakes. No matter, it is really good entertainment. So thank you!
It's brilliant how the dead can take the clothes they were wearing to the 'spirit world.' "Here we see Jonathan haunting the hotel in his favourite Nike hoodie.."
Xander Oh My God I'm done 😂😂😂😂
Xander Asian lore kinda says that they take with them whatever they had on them when they died. Also, it's tradition to burn money or "gifts" for them to have in the afterlife.
Reading this in 2017, its perfect.
hahahahha
to fuck yo
Watching this because nothing is scarier than the two exams I have tomorrow.
hi how did you do in your exams?
@John Smith just my thought. So how did you do BallisticRiot?
Oh Well BallisticRiot...Just Hope Your Exams Went Well Love? (Obviously 4 years later) x
fake or not, the last two are really well done and for sure bring the chills.
Top 5s videos are always awesome. My channel actually does similiar creepy subjects if you're itnerested. It might give you something to do while we're all waiting for another great top 5s video.
Neat stuff
I've heard of the taxi passengers before.
The video of the guy climbing into the cab, the door just opens by itself. Those videos are great.
@@doloresbriseno2567 The taxi doors are controlled by the drivers in Japan. So the driver opened the door for a passenger and shut it thinking the person came in but then is surprised to see no one there so he probably went out the taxi to make sure he didn't hurt anyone but was probably surprised again to see no one there...
@@vlowolvtake1797 Thank you for explaining. That explains the other video also.
Where the he'll did I park my haunted car?
-Car parking lot ghost
How to get a free taxi fare in Japan:
1) Be a ghost
My nickname is Casper,do you think that means i could get a free ride with my pale skin?
why in japan all woman ghost looks like the girl from the ring??
or the grudge
Because they are all fake.
Jhon Alex cute asf though
Jhon Alex so true they always look the same

+Alex M Thanks Alex! You really have supported from the start!
You created your account on December 2015. Why you lying for cuz?
You don't need an account to watch youtube videos.
or, he would have multiple accounts, deleted that one and made a new one etc.
Common sense bruhh.
one day I will be in the top comments.... one day.
DAMN IT! Not today
What is that going to do ? are u getting a million bucks or what?

Top 5s is my favourite channel
agreed
best voice best accent
I'm English and I can't pinpoint where Top5 is from. His accent is kind of South England, where I'm from, but there are words that he pronounces as a Northerner would. I'm bamboozled by it.
Michael Hunt whatever it is, i like it! :)
Michael Hunt I always thought he sounded Welsh but maybe not
Lmao the first one is just harry with his invisibility cloak.

YTWanderer lmaoooooo
Jose Lino you are disgusting
Can i join you next time??
I love that I can watch these videos and not have to worry about being jump scared at any point, it makes things like this more fascinating rather than scary.
10:23 am, perfect time to get high and watch these videos lol
lol me 2
Scottish Samurai same yo
Haha I'm in Scotland watching too
Scottish Samurai So watching this in the morning is the best time? Hm
wow weird, it's exactly 10:23 right now
i use this channel to train my mind just in case something like this happen to me
juan sanchez lmao I feel you xD
lol
Hahaha! So true
well if you do actually believe in ghost. Its really abnormal and scary when you encounter one.
Good to train your eyes for what can't be explained, I can see our mind trying to show us from our memory, What was in these videos, But that last one was fubar for seeing it as a robe. But ppl see whatthey want to see.
Nobody ever discusses the videos, just tells you what time in the night/morning it is for them and that they might get scared.
Welcome to UA-cam where people say random things for attention, fun or are just naturally weird haha
It's our coping mechanism, Nothing wrong with that.
I know and it's really stupid.
i know huh? typical youtubers just typing the same things. well comes with the big youtuber territory sadly
😂😂😂😂😂so tru
The last 2 videos are very interesting...Both show someone getting into the cabs..the first having opened the door and closing it, but no one is visibly there...THIS is what the top 5's are all about!! Kudos to you!
Oh my.. the 2nd to last video gave me chills, my arm hairs were all standing!! This was after she said, "Did I die?" Ahhhh so creepy! So good!
Keep up the awesome work, Top5s!!!!
i met a ghost once...he almost bored me to death.....
LMAO
you fine bitch
teehee
she ain't no where near fine kid
damn girl...hmu

Its 9:40 pm. Lights out. Im ready!
New Zealand?

it's now 10.01 pm :)

nz awesome!
I remember your early days. I watched your videos every night, sometimes for an hour. I'd even rewatch a lot of them. Love your content, Top5s, and I am so glad you're moving up. And you haven't changed at all! Guess there is something to the "do what you love, be who you are" thing.
Okay, my view on ghosts. Why be scared? They're dead. In other words, if I awaken to something in the middle of the night, I would be relieved to find out it's a ghost hovering over my bed, than a giant man with a ski mask and a machete about to chop my ass up.
I think its human instinct to be scared because its unknown and our mind cant process what is going on that is destroying the laws of physics its also instinct to be scared of something that you would consider a predator as you don't know how to get rid of or destroy something that your mind knows it cant if it were to turn out to try to hurt you and be hostile you would have no means of defense with a person braking in its the same thing but you are able to defend yourself such as shoot them or fight them off with a ghost well how can you kill something that is already dead how can you fight something that you hands would go through however they can touch and hurt you
So there's that.
My view on ghosts. The majority of these videos have them wearing clothes, so die in a comfortable outfit. You may be wearing it for a long time.
Your funny
Let us know when you see one, and tell me it didn't scare the shit out of you
I'll never understand CCTV. Why not increase the frames per second so its a smooth rolling video?
Involves huge cost.Public cctvs are generally cheaper.The ones you're talking about are vv costly!
CCTVs are generally cheap and their main purpose is to record accidents or robberies for insurance purposes (rarely ever used to identify a suspect who is robbing a store). I don't think people buy the expensive ones to record ghosts xD
Well, really what I mean is, when u watch your local news and they post a picture on the screen and say "if u you've seen this man, please call..." And the pic is distorted and of bad resolution. Or a murder goes down and you can't make out anything because the video studders so much. No, i don't think businesses should buy high quality recording equipment for the sole purpose of catching an apparition on tape.
my local chippies got some 1080p cctv bruh lol
***** I agree
Finally some new ghost sightings not like same ghosts in every scary channel's
Morning coffee and top5s new uploads, hell yeah baby.
The ghost looking for her car; she is almost a complete FULL-BODY APPARITION!!! Great footage!
I've been with you since the beginning 😊me & my boyfriend hit the lights and watch your videos late at night it's our thing, enjoy your videos they are creepy & informative!
Is it just me that doesn't believe in ghosts but still gets scared of this vids?
i guess xD
I've actually SEEN ghosts on two different occasions, years apart (and had the living shite scared out of me each time) - and, yet, I STILL get the creeps from watching these damn videos. Funny, old world!
even if you do not believe in the paranormal, doesn't mean you cant get scared of something unnatural or unusual happening
is it just me or the more bullshit videos you see the less I believe in ghosts? c'mon can a fucking ghost appear, put on a sweater wave hi and then take it off for once and for all??? no instead we have shit just flying through the air like props and doors open and shut...never seen a convincing ghost video, even though I kinda believe in them. same thing with ufos.
'this'
I don't know who you are... but I will find you,
and I will tell you to have a fucking amazing day, you beautiful person.
lol that first ghost was gonna buy something then saw the prices and was like im out lmao
Great video again! The old cctv ghost videos were the reason I started watching your channel over a year ago. I watched a couple, then ended up watching every video on your channel up until that point (and every video since). I got a bit addicted to the ghost footage thing and looked all over youtube for it but got sick of seeing the same few videos in every countdown, but this new video is 5 that I've never seen before!
In Japan taxi doors are opened by the taxi driver pulling on a lever. That story was the only one I didn't find creepy.
priscamolotsi ahhh right
priscamolotsi what's creepy is we don't hear anything about the fukushima disaster anymore
abfonz abfonz probably because you don't speak Japanese. it's on the news at least once a week here
Well the driver reacts as if she disappeared out of thin air. So even tho that door opening thing makes sense his reaction doesn't.
Thank you! I was very confused by that.
1st is ghost image over old re-recorded tape.
Second is clearly smoke from something hence the fire alarm.
Third is a spider making a web, hence the spiral movements and you can even see it's fangs and a couple legs in the last image and I suspect that is why they ended it there as it was coming more into focus.
Forth is just fake.
Last one it was just a crappy camera and that camera just did not know what to do when that guy stood halfway behind the pole so took some of the shadow and his shirt and made it into a new image. It even has the same shape as the back of his shirt when he is standing there. You can also see a somewhat similar thing happen in the background (upper left) where what looks to be a woman walking with a man and the woman just pops into view from being just a black mass. Same with the upper left where that persons walking and the camera morphs what looks to be a person from out of thin air walk right into them and disappear.
Diffidentone you're a legend
Diffidentone you must not be very interesting in conversation
Ben Maxfield ain't that the shit
Thanks for the support everyone!

Great, now I'm scared at noontime...
My ethnicity has a really strong belief in spirits and monster (since in the past, we've lived in the mountains with forests all around), so every time you go out and it's late, they always say to have a partner to go home with you or else something will follow you home or if you are in a group, have an even amount of people or else one member would be paired with a spirit (which is not good)
Just_Juulees i must have brought a lot of ghosts home over the years
No4: cigarette smoke, that also set off the fire alarm.

Some expert (self proclaim) ghost or spirit can not crossing sea water.
Share your ghost stories here:
I'll start off. The one person I trust the most in the world is my dad: he told me a story of when he had just married my mom and went on a small vacation. My great grandmother lived in a small house my family calls "the camp" since they have been going there for generations. He said that one night he was sleeping and felt a freezing air, he looked to the door (where a window was near the top), and saw someone starring in. He stayed still and felt cold and uneasy like he was drained, and saw that the man had a suit. The next morning he told everyone what he saw, and my great grand mother was shocked, he showed a picture of her late husband and my dad said it was the exact person he saw. He said he had a brown suit, and she said that he was buried in a brown suit.
The one reason I believe this is because my mom told a story how she saw the same figure while walking past the den to go to the bathroom. Both of my parents swear to god that they saw it.
I've seen the same shadowy figure at my grandma's house twice (and she's actually seen him once!). There was also the time with the baby grave. The first time, I was about 4. I woke up in the middle of the night and I swear I heard screaming outside. Like blood curdling someone's-dying-tonight. In a neighborhood of retirees. At 2am. Being a small child, I went to find my parents, who were sleeping downstairs. Except, a black shadow figure was standing in front of the stairs. He held up his finger and told me to "ssh". Instead, I screamed and he vanished as someone flipped on the hall light.
The second time, I was about nine. I was home alone, for some reason. I was in the kitchen, trying to grill a cheese most likely. The window over the stove, looked back into the backyard. There was an abandoned falling down shed/ garage/ dog run in the back corner. Something caught my eye and I looked into the yard. Then I saw the shadow figure jumping in and out of the dog run. We have a private, gated drive, so if all the cars were gone no one would think "Let's fuck with someone today". The neighbors back there had the same situation and I know they never used the place in the summer. I was kind of frozen. He then vanished into the dog run and I tried to urge myself to run. He had no face, but I swear he reappeared, and I felt like he was staring directly at me this time. I screamed and hit the kitchen floor. My family found me a couple hours later, barricaded in an upstairs bedroom.
After telling this to my Grandma, years and years later, she passed on a story. I didn't think she'd believe me, because I had a clear memory of her mocking me about the baby I claimed was crying under this giant, ancient tree in the same yard. Us kids were never allowed to play under there, because all the yard under the branches was covered in poison ivy (which interestingly enough, stopped when the branches did). So when 2-3 year old me started rambling about a baby, I was dismissed by the adults. My Mom says I came tottling up from the backyard, to where all the adults were chatting on the front porch. I was in a fit. I started crying about a baby, right then, that was crying under the big tree. My older cousins reported that they'd been pulling me away from the tree all afternoon. They swore that they hadn't been antagonizing me and that there was nothing under the tree. My Dad still went to check and came up empty. Fast forward about 15 years. A big storm, combined with a local tree blight, spelled the final days for a tree that we found out was over 300 years old. So, the tree had to come down. While digging up the roots, the workers found something. It was a small headstone, with two initials and a last name that was in our family tree (the house was a family home). We found it typically marked baby graves. There was no date and no remains were uncovered, though they could have turned to dirt years ago. My aunt called us, sort of hysterical, because the minute she had all the facts she made the connection to a fuzzy memory of my childhood. There is indication we've lost babies in the family, but they're all marked in the family plot. There's no missing names. So the theory is that the babe was a still born, or a babe of dishonest birth who didn't live past infancy for whatever reason and wasn't added to the family tree.
But, back to my Grandma. I was telling her about the shadow man (this was before the Big Reveal). She revealed that one night, she saw him. She woke up to a sudden burst of icy cold air. Her room has always been muggy. That's how she likes it. So, of course, she thought maybe something had happened and someone was entering her room at some ungodly hour. Instead, she saw her closed door and a tall shadow figure, standing by the window. All he did was stare out the window, before he flickered and vanished. This was almost directly below where I encountered him the first time. That window has a pretty good view of the shed, where I saw him years later. Our theory is that maybe, just maybe, he's buried out there. There are indications that a previous family member owned a few household slaves. It is possible that they were buried in the back corner, and then their graves desecrated when the garage was built. It's also possible he slept (forcefully) with one of the female slaves and there bastard child was buried separately. I will say that when the shed was torn down just a few years ago, there were no indications of human remains.
Not really a "ghost" story but, late one night my doorbell rang. I was in the middle of watching a scary movie while eating a bag of "flaming hot" Doritos so I didn't answer it. About 5 minutes later it rang again and this time it rang like 10 times in a row which seemed a bit excessive and urgent. So reluctantly I got up and opened the door. To my shock and surprise there on my doorstep stood the Loch Ness monster, an 8 story tall crustacean from the Paleozoic era! I said "what the hell you want at this hour you Gott Damn Monsta?"!! And do you know what he said???
*"I need about tree fitty".*
Well I told him to go away because we Work for our money in This house!
Back in 1998, in the Sunset district of SF, at my old apartment when i lived with my mom and grandma, the bathroom fan was very loud, so i would pee in the dark at night, only lit by the moonlight. One night, while peeing in total silence, i felt and heard directly in my left ear, someone whisper "SHHH" i immediately screamed WHAT!WHAT! WHAT! then ran and turned the light on. My mom came to the door sleepily asking what was wrong, i said "nothing, sorry." 3 months later i went to the living room window, as i heard some car burn rubber outside, at around midnight and wanted to see what it was since we lived in a residential area. We had a big mirror in the living room, and i remember looking at myself in it, then turning to the outside window when again, in my left ear i heard SHHH...I said "oh no no no", then ran to turn every light on. I have never found out what happened at that flat, the history, but I am very intrigued to do so. Ive never told my Mom this, though I very much want to. Still freaks me out thinking about it, in particular the bathroom SHHH ...fucking what hell
Abigail very interesting story and you told it very well. I think what you and your grandmother saw was a residual haunting. However, what you saw at 9 may have been an intelligent haunting. It sounds like it knew it was being observed. Had it meant you any harm being behind a locked door wouldn't have stopped it. You may have startled it as much as it startled you. :o)
I live in a small town where almost everyone knows eachother and if something happens everyone hears about it. Well the story going around town was of a local drunk who was hit and killed on the towns main road. The road i used to walk to school.
Rumors were going around saying the car decapitated the man and also ripped out one of his arms. needless to say it left a gruesome image in my head.
Every night me and my brother used to lay out our clothes on our beds so we wouldn't be in a rush for school the next morning. keep in mind i also used to sleep in front of a mirror but i wasn't scared of it because i shared rooms with my brother.
One night i woke up to strange noises that sounded like quiet sobbing. I first though it was my aunt, who would hum while preparing lunch for my uncle. I checked the alarm clock which read 2am, way too early for her to be up cooking.
I was getting a little freaked out so i turned on my night light which didn't give out too much light but just enough to see my surroundings. I was now staring directly at the mirror in front of my bed. I see something moving in the mirror and my first thought is, it has to be my reflection, but i was completely still. I focused on the mirror and couldn't believe what i was looking at. There was a man sitting in front of the mirror with his back against my bed. Legs stretched out towards the mirror, missing both of his arms. His head was swinging back and forth like he couldn't keep it balanced on his shoulders. I screamed for my uncle who came running into my room. I told him what i saw but he dismissed it by saying it was just my clothes i had laid out for school. It still didn't explain the sobbing and the creepy head swinging.
15 years later and i still get the heebie-geebies when I'm looking at a mirror.
Top5s I am in love with your voice ^_^
Wish I had a voice like his
thanks top 5s for making me scared everytime I go to bed, do you get scared making these?
I fucking love you and this channel!

Can you please remove yourself from the comments if you are going to be homophobic?
you don't have to be homophobic but you do have to be open minded or you will get left behind or killed for hate crimes
what I love most about this channel, is the comment section. Most videos' comment sections are always filled with spam, and negative comments. But, looking through your channel, you have more positive comments about you, and your amazing work and actual comments about your videos than most of what I've seen. I love you, your videos and all the hard work you do, and this entire fanbase. whether or not these ghost videos are hoaxes or not, doesn't really matter. Keep doing what you're doing :)
Thank you so much for uploading so much! It must take a lot of work and energy but I, along with all of your subscribers, appreciate it. Keep up the good work!
How dare you speak for me! I don't appreciate it at all. In fact I expect it! Many more of you worthless worms should be contributing to my amusement and entertainment!
Thank you for the extra hard work this month!! I am so happy to see the
these!! #top5s
I was watching this while home alone when I watched the one with the apparition at the top of the stairs, and when it was done I was too afraid to go to the bathroom which was at the top of my stairs.
you should fuck it
Connor Lee I'll give you a tips for if that ever happens again, do what I do grab your balls, say "fuck it!" And then charge into it. Trust me dude it works all the time, and if you're female then just do the same
wait I've been subbed her for more the 2years holy crap
here
Congrats on the subscriber numbers!!
And thank you sir for giving us kick ass chilling videos!!!!
I've been a truck driver for my company for about 15 years now, driven all over Scandinavia and I actually have seen a lot of strange things. Some is probably the result of being tired from lack of sleep and just getting stressed, but some things can't be explained. Seen people standing beside the road that just vanish when you slow down, heard some creepy shit on my radio and the worst thing I saw was a field full of people at night, stopped my truck in case it was a car crash or something but the second I got out of the truck all my lights died (extremely unlikely, run two set-ups with a battery backup) and the warm summer night was cold as ice all of a sudden. Not ashamed to admit I got the fuck out of there fast as hell, running dark for about a km before the lights went back on..
Wish I had a camera in my truck back then. Now I do just in case.
Wow
About the taxi door opening; Japanese cabs have automatic doors, operated by the driver. The video is still weird, but the ghost definitely didn't open the door
1 in the morning ahhh fuck lol
Primitive 4 am for me
+CinemaSammy just turned 5:00pm here so lucky me hehe
primitive 5:08 for me fuck it's still dark...
Loki Liesmith same
+Jose Perez haha you know what it just turned 5:9 pm here and its getting dark
The door wasn't opened by the ghost! The taxi/cab doors in Japan can be opened by the driver automatically.
True... although the woman vanishing is a bit odd; she can't be seen walking away either forward or behind. I suppose it's possible she went back into a building directly beside the taxi, but it is strange - and the cabbie is apparently confused by her sudden disappearance as well.
Can we please get this guy a TV show? Like I just love the content and commentary it's both fascinating and informative 🤗
Going from 35 to 1.6 million subs is a true inspiration to keep going to us small youtubers
What if the suspected ghost we're watching on these clips, is watching us watching them 😭😭..
Japanese taxi doors are automatically open and close for passengers. It's a part of their service. It's not 'someone open the taxi door...'. But, the figure in the video is interesting.
Fake or not, this video is chilling. Thanks for the entertainment!
Can not wait for more of these types of videos from top5... Always has me thinking about what could be real or fake
Top5s, 00:46 AM, fullscreen, headphones, 50% volume. I want someone to put that on my gravestone thanks
Why cctv is low quality cameras even in 2016
many companies don't want to waste money, you if it ain't broke don't fix it lol.
better cctv quality couldve explained what really happened to the pentagon in 2001 :/
there were no hd cams in 2001..
can hold more storage also.
Love0wner good point still wouldve been nice
if ghosts r real, then I hope I'll see my dad again sometime
Glitch Paint you can contact him now...why wait? lol but be careful some evil spirits like to act like a family member that has passed to get you to do them favors. Make a shrine or sum of that nature. leave him gifts while he is in the after world.....call on him then give it a few days or so...all of a sudden you'll hear knocks on the wall ect especially while alone. I talk with spirits all the time...well they talk to me. and make sure you are on a high vibration/frequency....that helps keep the evils away.
Kim Fishe just talk to your dad and ask.for signs
You might freak out.
My father passed away almost 6 years ago and ever since I've had some extremely vivid dreams of him, I often wonder if this is his way of being with me from the after life. I like to think so anyway.
i had vivid realistic dreams of my nan after she passed, where we would have conversation and remind each other of the things we used to do together,and she was showing me spirits of passed family members.@@TooLameToDie
top 5s so far you're the best top 5 channel ever i mean you're like a detective and all the things you put and mix up to make a good quality video is amazing i honestly wish you the best m8, have a good one :)
Can you beat an old Top5s video? No you cannot.
All 100% fake. I can tell for sure because I am a ghost and we don't look like that lol
Oklahomas ghost was even creepier thanks I can now have a nice scary night to sleep 😧🙃😮😀
Nvm the last one was even creepier! Chills in my spines 😬
Sparklyn Sparklyn to me the Oklahoma one looks like a toy is swinging in front of the camera.
I could have sworn the Oklahoma one was debunked years ago by some kid who admitted to tying a string to a toy and hanging it over the camera. The first one shown looks like footage from a recorder that has been overwritten many many times resulting in the 'ghost'.
Sparklyn Sparklyn
Sparklyn Sparklyn COOL STORY 😅😁😓😇😏😁😙😃😔😁😁😗😆😏😘😂😁😏😗😁😏😁
Taxis over there in japan have automatic opening doors
I was one of your first (probably thousand) subs, started watching you all the way back in 2014 and my, you've always had some really good stuff. Keep it up, this is amazing stuff, whether any of those videos turn to be fake or not.
I think you do an amazing job on your top 5's paranormal activity videos....of all the work regarding the same phenomenon, you seem to pull it off and professionally present it, better than many others, to allow the viewer to determine what they think,!!!! Thanks for your dedication and commitment....(From an Australian fan)
you know what really grinds my gears, ALL the "Ghost videos" are recorded with the shittiest security camera or the worst mobile camera -_-
Mehdi Lebowski the security cameras have to be "shitty" because good cameras use up too much memory, the amount of memory needed to have HD high quality video running for the amount of time they need it too would take Terrabites! Any computer that would have enough space to store all that much memory either dosnt exsist or costs several billions of dollars.
I'm about to go to bed and I saw this video and clicked on it.... Okay, why the fuck not.
tomchuol1970@gmail.com
CCTV footage generally was always on tapes. Those tapes get used over and over again
It leads to imprints on them and there you go, there's your "ghosts".
Except the Oklahoma one was a toy on a string blowing in the wind.
I just love watching your videos at night, I dont know why!
Congratulations on all your success with your channel - it still remains to be one of my faves, even after all this time 😊
Maybe I will start to believe in that stuff, when I see something like that recorded with modern high end camcorders, instead of these old vhs and pixel crap.
Just reading your comment in 2021 and I was skeptical too until 2 years ago when I moved to my current home and actually seen an apparition with my own eyes 👀 my place is severely haunted lol
Take a look
You know when you reuse the tape in a CCTV and record over and over, stuff leaks through
Very creepy...undeniable footage. Simply stunning...awesome!
man I actually genuinely don't understand why I do this to myself. These videos always creep me out! this is why I can't be alone at night
#3 looks like someone lagging irl
the lag is even tormenting us in the afterlife xD
Stop playing on a Brazilian server. /s
the taxi door one is very probably fake as you can see a person moving away from taxi just after the door is closed. she probably decided to not take the taxi after all and the driver exited the vehicle in pursuitnof the lost fare, checking if she would come back. if the video had audio im sure it would clear up the situation
but didnt he say that the taxi drivers were horrified by this when they reported it?
The two are not mutually exclusive. Culturally, a lot of Japanese are inclined to believe in ghosts, so a bad vid or "mysteriously disappearing fare" can cause a lot more uproar than really warranted.
îts also easy to pretend to be terrified in order to get more attention
IH8YH
True also - just watch Japanese TV. It's like a nation of drama queens sometimes. :-)
(Don't get me wrong - I love Japan. But they are ... different.)
of course they are different, thats why i like them so much haha.
but that is not just a japanese thing. if you follow paranormal podcasts or something on instagram or twitter, and they post vacation photos or road trips etc, EVERYONE is like "i think theres a ghost in the window in the back" or anything like that. its ridicolous. everyones an attention whore lol
Hey hi buddy
I am from India n have been watching ur videos since last one year which r really good n amazing.Keep uploading videos please,all my family members love to watch them.
God bless you!! :-)
There are so many similar channels but so far you're the best!
Wow, how creepy, a ghost might be watching you right now and you likely not even know it. Good video Top 5.
Potato cctv cameras seem entirely pointless.
OMG i was that 35th subscriber 🤓
saleh aldharhani what a loser
He mad cuz i was a subscriber before him
Wannabe
Wannabe
If u were then why is there 2mil people
#2 is very obviously fake:
-In Japan the taxi doors open automatically when the driver presses a button.
-The girl that can be seen when he pulls up is clearly a real woman.
then why the camera inside the taxi didn't get the image of a girl?
How did it close it then?
They can close the door with the same button.
ah i finally found the answer for the #1 vid with the door opens by itself, before the man even get to the taxii
Ozymandias The King but the door closed.it wasn't controlled by the driver...!
I like how you always say that whatever you show doesn't prove anything, you leave it up to the viewer
I like watching & listening to your videos cuz it’s so soothing and relaxing.
#3 looks more like the ghost is floating in the air. (at the tow yard)
It's a doll on a string
Wow, then I must of been her since 100 subs
here*
Bleach must've*
I swear, if you make another one of the ghost videos, you should make the loudest and scariest jump scare the world has even known.
Man that ghost taxi section really pulls at the heartstrings
Congratulations on the growth of your channel. It is clear you put a lot of work into all videos. Although some seem to be either a bit cheesy or outright fakes. No matter, it is really good entertainment. So thank you!
its that time of the year to make some popcorn late at night and fire up some scary youtube vids
