☠︎ Found the secret easter egg in today's video? Be the 1st to comment what it is and where it occurs in the video, and you will get pinned!! ☠︎
19:05 on the phone it says hi dave
Winner! The secret is “Hi Dave” as well as Dave’s Twitter handle which is “theflayedprince”.
Dave hit me up on Twitter and I agreed to put him in as a the secret.
Might start doing this more….
@@MrBallen its a good way of advertising well thought of
@@MrBallen I seen this earlier but for some reason didn't think that was it! 😆
There's a Tom MacDonald song where he says "hi Dave, hi Dave, hi, Dave" and I thought that's what it was lol
Dang you beat me out! But I finally saw it!!! I was probly slower because I never see them, I was in dis belief!!! 😂 😆
“Dad, why is my sister’s name Rose”
“Because your mother loves roses”
“Thanks, Dad”
“No problem, strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format”
Lol good one!
😂🤣
sir, i think you deserve thousands of likes for this joke 🤣
This should be pinned at the top of the comemnts
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA. Love this.
*Bf sees gf approaching his house. Runs away to friend's house*
Sounds like a great relationship.
Ex-boyfriend...he said they were estranged
That detail as well as Jackie's incredibly psychotic decision to break into his house (I know she was drunk, but drunkeness does not MAKE you do anything you were not already prone to doing, maybe just more easily and recklessly) leads me to believe Jackie must have been a very controlling and imposing person. It's not unreasonable to suspect that she was the forceful and aggressive one in the relationship.
@@hraefn1821 There's a fine line between genius and insanity.
Ho Ho, Are you Approaching me ?
@@hraefn1821 for real tho that bitch must've been bonkers
He sure knows how to tell a story! I lost my husband recently and now it's just me and the dogs. I get bored with TV and I can sit outback and listen to these stories and I feel like someone is sitting right there with me talking to me. You can visualize everything. Such a great storyteller and friend. Hope everything has a great day. ✌️
Everyone ^
My condolences on your loss🙏🏻
I'm so sorry for your loss. If you ever need someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to reach out!
@@sarahjaynehoelscher7884hey not to be a pest or something but I’ve really needed to talk to somebody about something it’s not bad just something I’ve wanted to speak about
@@sarahjaynehoelscher7884can I just reach out to you about it you or anybody
How absolutely weird, and of course horribly tragic, that the only two fatalities from that irresponsible ride down the Luge canal were the two identical twins in the group of friends ! My heart goes out to the boy's parents and family - one cannot fathom their terrible loss.
Second story, literally gasped hearing they were brothers, absolutely devastating and freaky even for a freak accident.
Right!? Out of all of the boys it was the twins and they were right beside each other! Their poor family
There was a freak accident in my state where 3 brothers who were all grown men died together at their own property...another guy who went to help him died as well. I'm not so sure of the details but they went inside the water tanky and ran out of oxygen or something. Truly horrifying..
Final destination is REAL
15:55 Honestly, as grim as it was, that made me think of Andy and Olly from Bobs Burgers. Together in the end, twin brotherly bond is strong.
Gasped? We're you not using your eyes? Took longer for him to say that than it did to SEE they had the same face. Same as daddy smile pants
I just want to say thank you..... I’m blind and have to listen to movies... however I came upon your site a week or so and I’m really enjoying your stories. You tell them in such a way I can see them in my mind. Thank you
How you type this
@@vvnn3948 i was gonna ask the same thing.
@@vvnn3948 Voice dictation probably
@@vvnn3948 I have a blind friend she will talk to her phone it will write it down then read it back it will even describe photos it’s pretty cool
@@vvnn3948 you’re so ignorant. Omg I can’t believe people like you actually exist…
I live Trinidad 🇹🇹 and it's awesome that I can verify your story as it obviously made the news..... so cool to know that your stories are 100% authentic 🔥
Ditto. When he said “Trinidad and Tobago” I was like “wait, what?!”
Then I realised I was familiar with this story, though I didn’t know some of the details.
The last story is a perfect distinction between wisdom and intelligence.
And what inebriating substances will do to them
If only we were all as determined as John. He shows that anything is possible if you are completely out of your mind.
Underrated 😂
beautiful post ... inspired me this morning
@@danielahoubim3673 you welcome! Sometimes I feel like I’m overworked but then I watch videos like this and realize my potential for workload correlates closely with my mental outlook. Blind determination like a crazy person and you can do anything! 😂
My guy probably wanted to get all five stars
Then he just naruto ran into a plane turbine like a chad after causing naked mayhem
i like how he doesnt say "john dies instantly" he uses "ceases to exist"
I mean, he literally get’s *disintegrated* by a jet engine so he just goes bye bye.
He became mist
LOL
He transcended human form with a bit of help.
Eviscerated
Regarding the 3rd story... I remember when this happened and I have NEVER forgotten it. She was actually a close friend of mines family doctor. Anyway, she did cry for help but because of her low air capacity and how far down in the chimney she was, her few cries were very faint. It was so bizarre and needless and tragic. Her boyfriend as I believe it was told, was to leave on a trip out of the country was avoiding her because he really didn't want to deal with her anymore. She was inebriated and maybe even stocking him. But my friend said she was a good doctor and well liked by her patients. It's such a tragic way to go... Sadly, she did this to herself.
Nearly everything you stated was already said in the video, so don't know why you repeated it here. The only thing different you stated, was your theory about Jackie being a stalker & that being the reason William left the country.
This explains why he fled his own house. I thought that part was a suspiciously conveniently reason for not helping someone stuck in the chimney but if were a potentially dangerous stalker that would make sense. Otherwise why flee instead of just not answer the door
The last story really freaked me out as I’m claustrophobic. I can’t imagine the fear she must have experienced.
“Hey who is that faintly calling for help?”
“I think it’s just kids in the pool”
“Oh, well no need to do anything then.”
🤣😂 I thought the same thing when he said that about that kids. Neighbors don’t rush when they hear kids screaming for help in that area.
That's the first thing I thought but its still hard to say, someone could be play fighting in there backyard and you call the cops🤣🤷🏾♀️ IDK, its sad.
@@heyitsshay6058 or... Go look? Idk. I would beat myself up pretty bad for the rest of my life if I heard someone calling for help and then dismissed it, only to find out later I might've helped
Seems like you haven't lived in areas with kids. Considering kids yelling happens everywhere everyday, and geniuses getting themselves stuck in chimneys nearly never happens, they made the correct assumption
@@einsp227 I grew up in the boonies. When I bought a house in the city, my friends threw me a housewarming party. The next morning around 7am I was awoken by the sound of a child screaming and screaming from one of my (as yet unmet) back yard neighbours. I run from my house barefoot in only a pair of boxers, vault my fence and am about to vault my neighbours fence.
I stopped a meter or two short when I saw my neighbour's little girl happily playing in her back yard. Apparently her "I'm having fun" sound is similar to most other kids "I've fallen and broken all my limbs" sound.
That's when I take stock of the situation. I'm a stranger here, and I've just vaulted a fence nearly nude and am now running at a small child.
To this day, I don't know/pray none of my neighbours saw me.
When the guy snuck out the back door I just busted out laughing. When you choose to flee your own home to get away from a girlfriend who doesn't even have keys to your house there might be a problem in your relationship.
🤣😂😭😢
If she's the kind to crawl into the chimney, he was justified lol
No doubt.
Yeah it was funny because she died and all. Had she survived, it just wouldn’t have had the same comedic effect.
She sounds like she was terrible to be in a relationship with
As a carpenter who is familiar with tearing down & bulilding chimneys, as well as having roofed hundreds of houses, so working around them... I don't buy for a second that the chimney dimensions shrunk the further she went down into it. Residental house chimney flues almost always remain the same bottom to top, but when they do change in dimensions, they shrink as they go up, not down.
The fact that he tells the story in such a way that its so elaborate and it feels like being there ..
The final story just really emphasizes the fact that IQ and common sense are not the same thing. RIP to everyone in these stories.
The smartest guy I know basically needs a baby sitter while outside. The boy is clueless.
I'd think this was less about her common sense and more about the fact that she was intoxicated.
@@hoshizoraaki6551 Somewhere in her intoxicated state, she thought if Santa could do it then she could do it.
Common sense is not a real thing.
@@Icewind007 Oh, common sense is a real thing - it just is not common so it is mis-named. Good sense is a better phrase to use since "common" is much too general and gives credit where none is deserved. 😅
I have to take a break from listening to this show. He has become my internal dialog throughout the day. For example, I was out for a run this morning, I took a wrong turn and almost decided to keep going then in the back of my mind I heard in his voice " she thought it was safe to push through, but little did she know that....." Then the other day I had to check under all the beds because I had left the door unlocked for maybe 1 minute. In the back of my mind I imagined him saying "even though her door was unlocked for only a minute, he managed to get in...".
My anxiety can't handle these stories, but I am addicted 😅
🤣🤣
Lmao
Jahahahahaha!! 🥲🤣
My family just moved into a new home that’s mid-renovation (so only the first floor is livable). It’s a hundred year old house that had railroad workers living in it who just up and left one day. At the same time we moved, I started watching MrBallen, so I know EXACTLY how you feel 😂
@@RaccAttack77 hahaha not to add to your anxiety but that sounds like one of his intros!
Ok, that sled story tore me up. I was literally tensed up praying that what happened wouldn't happen & it did. So sad. Poor kids, they were just being teenagers 😢
I don't even wanna know how you can take someone with an I.Q. of 170+, add a little alcohol (okay, maybe even a lot of alcohol lol).....& end up with them making SUCH a drastically dangerous decision (like climbing into a chimney). Her death must've been unbelievably scary to go through 😓
The first story is just bonkers, like literally, *"Naked man climbs 2 fences and an unclimbable concrete wall, overpowers 4 security guards, steals their vehicle and then disappears infront of like 100 people then comes back but then ceases to exist after jumping in a jet engine"*
This story a lil sus , the description of the police sounds real heh. The pic is from an African flight. Great narration as usual .
GTA V in real life.
Story seems stretched out a bit, I think they weren't being honest.
But bro that last story of the 170IQ PERSON WHO DIED BY BEING SANTA LIKE AHHDJFJCYCGDHD
PCP, or Angel dust, is a helluva drug. People do the impossible (and unthinkable) on that shit.
The twins in the luge story went to my school, and one of them (Jordan) was very involved in student council and school events. He made it a point to talk to everyone and make them feel welcome, which was a really big thing for me when I was in 5th grade and new to the campus and he'd take time out of his day to show me around and introduce me to people so I could have friends. We mourned for two weeks after it happened, and to this day have a memorial for them in the school that people visit very often, especially on the anniversary of their deaths. They're still missed
Thanks for sharing
I feel so bad for the twin's family. To lose one is heartbreaking enough, but both in one night? Incredibly sad.
I’m sorry for the loss of your friends. Such a tragedy.
That is such a super sad story of kids just being kids who ran I to unforseen trouble. I'm so sorry you experienced their loss! It sounds like they were cool nice guys!
holy shit
That's a terrible way to go but it's hard to feel sad for Jacque, she was clearly deranged and made that man miserable and she ended up rationalizing that breaking into his own home to continue harassing him was an acceptable thing to do. Clearly, genius doesn't cure stupidity or inconsideration.
Doesn't matter. Either pass your condolences or gtfo.......
Smarts don't make you rational lol. Quite a few of the stories Mr Ballen tells double as Darwin awards
@@Callimooneagreed. the IQ test is such a ridiculous measure of intelligence.
@@fruitygranulizer540 Common sense is not accounted for when it comes to IQ. A genius can & often do lack common sense.
What about the alcohol consumed right before this? You really think that had nothing to do with it? Pretty sure that's why it's mentioned
The only thing worse than doing nothing when hearing calls of “help” is hearing calls of “help” and doing nothing after assuming “it’s probably just a drowning child”.
I know a lot of people always think “no, this couldn’t happen to me. That’s just a TV or someone goofing off” but, please, if you hear someone calling out for help take their pleas seriously. Worst case scenario is you’ve waisted a few minutes of your time looking into a false alarm, but it’s more than possible that you’re the one thing standing between someone being saved and certain death. Don’t ever ignore a cry for help
I'd add to that that if you feel at all in danger yourself you should call emergency services and wait, or get someplace safe yourself. There are too many stories of people trying to help someone they thought needed it, but discovered it was a trap.
So don't ignore, but use your best judgement and always call for professional assistance.
Worst case scenario is its a trap and you end up the one in danger. Be careful
That's so true, I have never ever heard a cry for help, so to hear one it would immediately send a red flag... And my brain won't jump into action..
Yeah. Don't put yourself in a dangerous situation to help someone screaming for help. Call police.
@@RM-jb1wo that's why you should never, ever, go into a forest, canyon, anywhere in "nature" that is far from civilization, without being armed. Humans are not the only dangers in the woods. There are also bears, wolves, moutain lions, even angry/rutting dear can be extremely dangerous if startled. Learn to shoot, be armed at all times.
How weird is it that ONLY the twins died in that second case? Gosh, I feel so bad for the parents.
I'm a twin, and all I could think was I'm glad the second twin died without knowing his brother was dead. They were both having fun until the very end.
Maybe their height?
@@nikkili11 Good point! And most likely they had almost identical personalities as well, which is why they both may have insisted on sitting at the front of their respective sled
@@Peter_Parker361 okay I could actually buy that last part. Either that or a curse.
@@pierresauce8307 Haha, after having watched SUCH an ridiculous amount of strange, dark and mysterious MrBallen-videos (delivered in story-format), I'm not sure which one of these two explanations would be more reasonable... ^^
Watching your videos I have learnt what not to do
1. If you see a chimney, don’t try to enter via chimney.
2. If you’re unsure of which cave to go down, don’t dive in headfirst, nutty putty caves come to mind.
3. If you think something is a good idea, ask a friend and if they say yeah, ask another friend and if they say yeah, back out now. Especially when high or intoxicated even slightly…
#1 - This story is so unbelievable and outlandish it almost begs credulity if not for your absolutely exceptional and "Boss Level" storytelling abilities. Just great. Thank you.
I studied with some incredibly gifted people in college. One of the main things I learned during that time was that no matter how gifted you may be, it does not mean that you are imbued with common sense.
Because common sense is not so common…
Absolutely. You can have all the intelligence in the world but have zero common sense. Ppl need common sense!
Mike Judge based his characters Beavis and Butthead on 2 of his classmates in high school who happened to be the class geniuses. They both had slightly sociopathic tendencies and would laugh like that all the time.
Matters of the heart can over ride good sense.
bro 170 iq and she thought she could Santa Claus her way into a household
Neighbors thought cries of help were coming from kids at a pool nearby, so they ignored it. They were quoted as saying, "We just thought someone was drowning...we had NO IDEA someone was asphyxiating in a chimney...we definitely would have helped if we knew that."
Kids crying out for help is more alarming you’d think! If they just called 9/11 incase it could have saved her life… So sad.
Genius iq btw 🤦♂️
@@Picachki I don't think it could have if u consider the fact that she died soon after they heard that, so if they were to call 911 it could take a while to locate the source, adding the amount of time it took to free Jaque even when she was deceased means she could have very well died either way
Kids, and people, can yell help for lots of reasons, not just cause they're in danger
And no person, police or citizen would would ever think, "ahh yes, lets check this one random chimney"
Maybe the police come, check out the neighborhood and find 0 people were yelling, maybe they enter the house that didn't answer, I still don't think they'd hear her after hours of scouting, interviewing and finally entering the home.
She had restricted movement so can't bang the sides, and little air in her lungs to be able to make a sound.
And IF they heard something from the chimney, they'd think it was an animal and dismiss it for sure
@@brambleon I don't know any kids (who are actually people as well) who yell "help!" repeatedly without actually needing it.
Love your work mr.B....keep rockin!!
I am obsessed with your channel. The way you tell a story, even ones I've heard 100s of times before, you make anyone listening feel as if they were right there. And tbh, it's terrifying at times. Lol. I'm a fairly small woman. Growing up I never got more than 100 pounds and I'm 5'4. So being I was the smallest pretty much anytime anywhere.. I often found myself being volunteered to climb thru small windows or openings to retrieve keys from homes and even thru sunroofs of a car a time or two. But nothing compares to the time my biggest brother and I were left to babysit my 7 months old sister and long story short we got locked out. Instead of calling my mom we decided instead of breaking a window or trying to pry open the doors, we thought I would fit down the chimney.... I did. But it got smaller and smaller and I started to panic until I was completely fucking stuck. My brother called 911 and they send fire fighters to come and get me out by dropping a rope down so I could grab it. I had to straighten my body out as straight as possible and suck in as far as I could and use my shoes rubber bottoms to keep myself from slipping deeper into the chimney. I luckily got out obviously with just a few scratches and bruises. But the fear from that experience has left me with severe claustrophobia. If at any time I'm in a space small enough that I can reach out and touch the walls around me I will start to have a panic attack. So needless to say Jackie's story was just about to much for me to handle lol.
"Unfathomably bad choices." I really appreciate Mr.Ballens' diplomatic way of saying "Stupid." Alcohol is usually a part of people making "Unfathomably bad decisions." 🙏
yeah weird how someone can have an IQ of 170 and still be a complete idiot
So true.

@imgladandrewgillumisnotmykang that depends on the dude...
My twin sister sent this to me. We are from Bakersfield. I listen to you when I’m going to sleep and she listens to you while she’s at work. Then we call each other everyday to discuss the stories you tell. You’re awesome.
John climbing onto the fence and breaching the airport reminds me of a man who breached an airport in a similar manner. This gentleman was at the end of the tarmac and was hit by a plane that was landing and died as a result.
I cannot believe what I'm seeing! I lived in Bakersfield for many years from childhood through early 20s. Jackie Kotarac was My mom's primary care practitioner and mine on the rare occasion I was sick. The second I saw her face flash on the screen I was in shock! After several years of her being my mother's doc and my mom passed away from many medical complications, Dr Kotarac was so heartbroken and reached out to my dad and I. She not only sent flowers to the funeral but also forgave all medical debts from my mom and I. I still always remember her as a caring and wonderful person.
It's sad that she seemed to have been a lonely and disturbed lady. May she rest in peace.
I'm sorry for your loss on both occasions!
I am so sorry for your loss.
@@carldrogo9492 In what way was she lonely and disturbed? She was drunk and made accordingly stupid decisions, but her boyfriend's avoidant and callous behavior is what sticks out to me most. What a piece of trash of a man
I'm so sorry about your Mom. It seems that Dr. Kotarac was indeed very kind-hearted and that's what matters most in the end.
“And instantaneously John ceased to exist” is the best way you could possibly say he was minced up by a turbine!!🙌🙌
Get the pressure washer boys.

This is my claim to fame, being the secret in a Mister Ballen story! What a legend you are Mister B and will always be grateful 🙏
How heartbreaking for the parents of those twins. Their grief is unimaginable.

“The neighbors heard someone yelling HELP but they figured it was just kids in a pool” 🤔🤔🤔 wouldn’t that make you wanna investigate a little more than? Lol
If you've ever lived next to kids who frequently (and loudly) play outside, you'd understand how counterintuitively dismissive one can become about kids yelling "help!"
@@kingayy9267 not a day goes by where there isn't a kid outside my window screaming like they're being disemboweled
@@kingayy9267 I've been around and heard many kids play and rarely, if ever, have a heard a true scream for help unless something was seriously wrong
lol I thought the same. So you are just going to leave kids to drown?
Some neighbours.
@@kyle10590 To be fair, at the time she was getting towards the end. It would have been a half hearted, relatively quiet cry for help. Likely it wouldn't have been as compelling as when she started.
Thanks so glad I found your podcast!
Congrats bro. Always happy to see anyone find or make a silver lining from misfortune, a mistake or bad luck.
"hay honey do you hear that faint yelling for help noise?"
"yeah i do but its probably the children at the pool, no cause for alarm"
"ah yes, let the children drown!"
lmao
They could have at least called the police. Ridiculous.
Right?? Like how do you not think something could be wrong when you hear a cry for help like that?
I have neighbours who have kids and a swimming pool, you learn pretty quickly to not care for blood curdling screams and their cries.
@@michellenguyen9988 good point lol
Showing up to your exes house in the middle of the night and breaking in through the chimney while he's away is a bit more than "a lapse in judgement".
I think this is what they mean when guys refer to their ex as, "a crazy b@##h". Turns out they aren't exaggerating.
Genius iq btw 🤦♂️
Santa Claus surprise
The like button tried that once. When he showed up the the notification bell was there screwing his beloved search bar. Then he developed multiple personalities. One of them known as the dislike button
When you're drunk, you have no judgement let alone lapses.
8:01 I know that it's very dark story, but this line always manages to make me laugh lol
The second story is absolutely heartbreaking. Those kids entered an unknown stuff death trap. And the way, I am happy that those brothers are together, such a devastating event for everyone involved.
I can’t imagine the horror a parent must feel when they’re told that their twin sons were both decapitated and dead
Man said “ Decapitated and dead “ u didn’t have to put “and dead “ that kind of goes hand in hand with decapitation 😭😭😭
As a kid, I had these 2 identical twin friends named trevor and travis. One day they got in a horrible car accident (they were 12 at the time), and everyone but Trevor, only got minor - moderate injuries. Trevor died on impact.
I feel so bad for the parents, and especially Travis. I bet Travis felt like a part of himself died in that accident. When I was 11, I was at my OTHER twin friend's house,(Erik and Andrew), and their mom suddenly collapsed and died of a massive heart attack within minutes right in front of all of us. I can't get the disturbing noises she made out of my head to this day.
Life is tragic and unpredictable.
Be safe out there, anything can, and may happen.

A better use of time woulda been calling 911
@@Mypenisissmallbut nah. God can do miracles that don’t even compare
@@mals4142 if god can do miracles he woulda just stopped the boys from going down the sled course in the first place. God does everything which means he is responsible for those 2 twins deaths and every one who dies everyday.
Amen. I just think that they should have thought to pray before they did this ride down the mountain. Poor families of these boys. I'm so sorry this happened. I'm a chicken at heart, but I'm also a woman, so I would never do this. God bless the families.
Me, too. That would be my son, who is 52, and is very Godly.
I cannot believe the chimney story 😭 I’m so claustrophobic that it made me absolutely freak out 😭
MrBallen deserves some credit for the accidents he has prevented since starting to tell his stories.
Those poor poor parents of those twin boys. Unimaginable agony. My heart breaks for them.
I know that’s just shocking and sad that it happened to them.
I'm a twin, that one hit me hard! Neither knew the other one had died though, so it was kind of comforting that they went together and neither had to live without the other one.
I'm not going to lie this broke my heart. As a parent I can't begin to imagine.
Of course it's sad, BUT after-hours, without helmets and headlamps, on plastic sleds?
They had it coming.
@@archwaldo they where teenagers tho... teenager don't always make the brightest decisions but that doesn't mean they deserved to die from it
My guess for the first story, INSTANTLY after hearing of this "health issue", was that it must have been schizophrenia. I've worked with people with severe mental health issues for 6 years. This has all the hall marks of a psychotic episode. Schizophrenia is such a cruel illness, because it sentences the sufferer with a lifetime of fear, isolation and misery. I can only shed a tear for John, and hope that he is resting in peace.
I can't divulge personal info, obviously, but some of the things I've seen have had us scratching our heads as to how it was possible that such feats of strength and just effort the things took to achieve.. During such psychosis, I believe that parts of the brain are active that we just don't understand.
that could be possible, we don't have medicines like that to be purchased without a prescription from a doctor
Yeah, it could have been any of a number of schizoaffective disorders. Maybe even a particularly intense mania in bipolar. Either way, no pharmacy in any country hands out atypical antipsychotics or lithium over the counter.
Yes it's a horrible illness.
That story was hilarious
He is resting in "piece."
🖐🏼👃👁🦷🦴🧠👅🦰
Every one of these stories were absolutely insane, what a compilation. I feel awful for everyone involved. Great story telling.
John must have been on some really strong anti-psych meds that he ran out of unexpectedly. Maybe schizophrenia or some other combination of psych disorders.
That’s terrifying.
Most people find the silver lining in the position of the twins' bodies, but I find it in the fact that neither ever knew the other was dead. I can only imagine the amount of grief from losing a lifelong twin.
How did they orient their bodies without heads though? Did they move their bodies from a third person perspective?
so many questions.
@@TheGonzogibby Lol that's that's odd question but sure I would like to know
No they just accidentally ended up that way he said. He said the others were injured and didn't move anyone. Prayers to the family of these young men it is a tragic story.
I find it odd that both died from the same injuries. Then they were both in the same location right next to each other after being flown from the track! Too many coincidences...
i think people find solace in they departed together. and didnt have to take that journey alone.
Those twins were born together, and died together … I can’t imagine the survivors guilt of the other boys… or having to plan a funeral for not one, but two sons
survivors guilt makes no damn sense.
@@unknownuser8454 Survivors guilt is a condition in which a person goes through a stressful, livethreathening, and traumatizing event but escapes with their life. However the people with them haven't. This can cause a person to feel an immense amount of guilt, wondering if they could have done something to save the person or people that have died. Or they wonder why they were the one that lived while the others didn't. Hope I cleared that up and made it easier to understand c:
Especially if it was one of the surviving dumbasses idea to go there
@@halogod0298 give em a fucking break ffs
@@unknownuser8454 no? Stupid games = stupid prizes. If we are sweet to dumbasses they will continue the cycle
I’m new to your site and I’m enjoying your stories so much!!
I’ve got to say that you’re a awesomely great story teller. No wonder you have such a huge following on UA-cam.

Our son is stationed overseas and plays your stories for his unit. It gives them a nice little reprieve from the daily grind so thank you for that♡
Please tell your son thank you for his service ♡

The thought of being lodged, wedged, or in any manner stuck in a small space is my biggest phobia. Thanks for the meticulously detailed elucidation, it almost gave me a heart attack.
ALL I COULD SAY USE YOUR SIXTH SENSE!
Yep! I had to skip through when he started explaining exactly how Jackie died. I was like “ugh. Nope. Nope. Nope.” 😆 The thought of it all started freaking me out. I’ll say he sure does cover these stories VERY well in a detailed way.
Crazy women are scary AF. I can understand why the guy booked it when Jackie approached his house!
There's something called cleithrophobia its the fear of getting stuck and I have been that way since I was a child. There is no way I'll ever go caving there's no way I'll do a lot of things I was terrified of elevators as a child cuz I was afraid of getting stuck I was terrified of amusement rides as a child cuz I was afraid they would get stuck like I would get stuck in the seat and it all stems from when I was about four or five I went to this girl's house and her bedroom door swelled and we couldn't get out I climbed out the window it was on the ground level but I was freaking all the way out and I'm 36 and I still don't like the idea of getting trapped.
It happened to a 14 yr old boy December 2019 in a snowy part of the US. He went missing following a row with his dad or step-dad. He was missing for a few days. Police were searching everywhere for him, then searched an empty house opposite to where he lived and when they went inside, they found his coat on the floor near the vent of a blocked up chimney. He had climbed a mast outside the house, climbed onto the roof and down the chimney. He got trapped in the flue and died due to the constriction on his chest. It was heartbreaking 😢
Your storytelling is so good it's starting to eff with my head. I keep thinking, "am I going to end up a story for Mr. Ballen." I wonder what happened to John to make him lose it. The story about the twins is devastating but the family and friend's faith (seen on another video) carried them through. As far as Jackie goes. Alcohol can turn a genius into a statistic if we consume too much. I'm no genius but I definitely have been the fool. God rest all of them.
I think you're the best storyteller I've ever heard. From Anchorage Alaska
Being unbelievably brilliant doesn’t matter when you’re drunk!!
Booze ,Truly the great equalizer
*emails this story to fellow Mensa members* LOL 😂
And being upset while drunk makes it even worse, what little sense you'd have left after getting wasted would go right out the window
Probably more of a hazard, like a very powerful loose cannon

We need radio mr ballen I love listening to this when going to sleep even the subject matter is scary it’s soothing
FINALLY! A guy who does these kinds of story videos and isn't a complete idiot. *cough cough* Be Amazed
Don't you just love those people that hear something like "help" over and over but do nothing about it?
Not as much as the moron who literally CLIMBED INTO A CHIMNEY.
Better question: those people could hear it, but the bf didn't notice it for a whole day? I can't imagine the woman remained silent exactly when the guy was so close to him. Somethin' somethin' sus
Ok, I can imagine her being silent out of shame but it'd qualify as suicide... still, you never know...
Fr and if they did hear the word “help” even from kids WHY DID THEY IGNORE IT😭😭
@@kv5917by that time she couldnt breath properly. When you speak you expel air but by that time she wasnt able to inhale enough air because the walls wouldnt let her expend her cheast/lungs.
Mr. Ballen: The friends went down the luge track, thought it was great, did it twice more then said “hey, let’s not press our luck”. Left and went home.
Me: Wow, that’s not like a normal Mr. Ballen story at all..
Mr. Ballen: Then they came back with more friends.
Me: Ah, here we go.
If i have learned anything from Mr. B, it's to never try entering any building thru the chimney - gads.

No matter how 'brilliant' a person is, once they're intoxicated, they are likely to become inconceivably less so.
you gotta love the "please drink responsibly" sayings. like, drinking in its essence makes you irresponsible.
For some reason I did way better in school when drunk. It slows down my ADD brain enough to where I can actually focus on one thing and not a million at once. And now I have a master's degree in aerospace engineering because of it lmao
@@valkyrja-- yet. Is ADD all you had?
@@valkyrja-- theres a huge difference between being drunk at school, and being a drunk in school.
How drunk you gotta be to become Santa tho?

Stay with it. Your doing great.

proud of you, Joe. keep it up ♥️
Great job!! You can do this.
Moral of the third story:
You might be smart...
...But you're not alcohol smart
Story 3 is the perfect example of know matter how smart someone is , everyone human makes mistakes
The fact the dude ran out of his house when Jackie showed up.. then she tried to break in the house with a shovel then decided to break in Santa Claus style .. tells me, she may have been smart but she was likely toxic AF.
Agreed.
Also (and more fair to assume) intoxicated AF.
A very horrific way to go, and a sad and tragic loss of life
Bro I just said the exact same thing before I even knew the ending fact that dude took off on sight out of his own home says it all

Yes, but I'd take it over the chimney. That's like being slowly constricted by a huge anaconda or something.
But the anaconda takes one quicker...
You should hear the other story about the lady that die in a Disney amusement park show it’s brutal
I dont think that would be a horrible way to go. Disgusting for sure.
This is the only infortunate stories channel that actually gets under my skin
cheers for 8 mil subs mrballen!
Never knew just how unbelievably dangerous killer chimneys were until I started watching these videos.
We need chimney control legislation now!
We need an assualt chimney ban 😜
Nobody ever talks about chimneys and how dangerous they are. All you think happens is you fall down and get dirty. After all, that's how Santa and all the burglars get in.
Chimneys are actually pretty dangerous, especially if not properly maintained
Plus falling in trash compactors, sliding down a vent that also narrows, and so on. It certainly makes us more aware or assessing the dangers & making rational decisions before we explore an abandoned structure, an old mining cave & so on. MrBallin's stories teach us whilst enthralling us with his excellent storytelling skills.
The last story was like the one you told once of the boy who climbed down the chimney and you told it in the same cringe way of exhaling and slipping further. I can't think of a more horrible way to go, alone and unable to breathe.
That’s the exact story I thought of too. So awful
It’s so disturbing. Makes me realize that I’m claustrophobic.
We need to discontinue the santa chimney thing i think, might give more people ideas
It was a woman who went in the chimney by the way, who was considered a genius at that. A tragic way to go no matter who it was but just letting you know bro
@@gavingreene9084 Michael is referring to another video, where a boy ran away from home, attempted to get into an abandoned building to sleep, and did so via a chimney that was also too narrow for him to pass through at a certain point. He died the same way.
I like how you paint a picture in my mind the way you present it
Thanks!
This whole episode took my breath away and gave me heart palpitations. Such horrific ways to die. Yikes!
I imagine that you are inadvertently saving lives by informing people about how a series of mistakes and poor judgment can often lead to death in the most unexpected of ways. Thank you for putting such time and effort in doing these videos.
It's kinda shocking how many people thinking going down a chimney is a good idea....
@@cdes1776 Yep! Exactly that! EVERYONE have heard about similar stories and dump choices. It's up to the human, no amount of examples will stop someone from been an idiot.
Also giving people anxiety disorders.
Only a few though. Because “it won’t happen to me”itis is a real thing. If you think you are indestructible or something like that won’t happen to you, then it won’t deter you. It’s rather like why the legal system works. “It won’t happen to me and I won’t get caught, so why not rob the store?” Versus “Uhh yeah O’m desperate for money but with my luck I would absolutely get caught so I’ll just take out more loans. Haaaa..”
You know, the moral of many of Mr. Ballen's stories is (pardon the phrase, yet it's accurate) "Stupid people do Stupid Things, and they Get Hurt (or Die)!"
I was just about to do a 'stupid thing' last week, and realized that if I did that thing, I might get hurt. So I asked for help, and was OK. Warning signs are not put in place so people can breeze past those signs. Warning signs are put in place to Save LIVES. Thank you, Mr. Ballen, for helping us to think twice before rushing into something 'stupid.'
I thought John's story would end with John coming to his senses after getting medication and everyone just got a good laugh out of it.. boy I was not ready for the end
i thought they were going to try and fly the plane :bruh:
He did get the medication he needed... just happened to be a jet engine.
This is Mr Ballen nobody has a laugh at the end. They're lucky if they get to live.

I live in Calgary and remember hearing vague details about the luge accident story, but very little details were released in the news as far as I can recall, I mostly just remember the news saying that two boys were killed in some kind of accident at COP, and a few others were injured. I never knew that they snuck into the park to go luging, and definitely didn't know that the two who died were twins who were decapitated by a metal chain...
John was going for some kind of Any%Speedrun

As soon as he said Jackie was trying to find a way into the house, I'm like "She's in the chimney, isn't she?"
I've watched waaay too many videos on this channel lol.
Honestly we need to start putting padlocked grates on chimneys at this point, good lord.
Lmao! Right?! 🤣🤣Its crazy that people do things like that tho, and for some reason, I'm still surprised to think that they do!

It's a horrible accident, but I agree, the twins landing together even thought they didn't go down together was tragically beautiful. They came in together and left together.
