Yes
Kind of. I wish the narrator didn't repeatedly pronounce Khashoggi as Khashogshi.
I am satisfied.
No. At least three were asinine assumptions
Hi
I know Umbrella Man said it was a symbolic thing, but as someone who grew up in Dallas, an umbrella on a very sunny day is just used for shade. Nothing nefarious about that on its own.
Ou you’re apart of the conspiracy as well. 🧐🤨
Nawww….. it’s Sir Reginald Hargreeves
@@coolbreeze3793 Arrest this man!
What about Babushka Lady though? Have we figured out who she is yet?
@bazzleelf I live in San Antonio and I thought the exact same thing.
I still feel terrible for Richard Jewel. Man saved 100s of lives and got dragged through the mud, made fun of and generally disrespected. Man was a hero
There was a 2019 movie about him that bears his name, starring Paul Walter Houser.
What a tragedy for Mr. Jewel to be accused of this crime when he saved so many peoples’ lives.
Sounds familiar.
The film did a good job showing why it was in question
FBI: Yeah, so?
That poor woman not even being allowed to attend his funeral. That's heart shattering.
i feel so bad for richard jewell. he literally saved so many ppl yet was accused for the bombing. it literally destroyed his life. he was still getting shamed for it after the real person was found
To say that Richard Jewel was cleared of the Olympic Park bombing is leaving so much unsaid that it is mind blowing. The FBI and the media ruined his life when, bottom line, he was truly a hero. Such a deep deep shame and even worse is that not one lesson was learned by any of those involved in this injustice.
The problem with the FBI is, their successes are private and their failures are public. When they make a mistake like they did in making Richard Jewell a suspect, everybody knows about it and every politician starts pointing fingers for political gain. I don't feel all that sorry for Jewell, because he sued those newspapers and got paid millions. Hey, news outlets, give me fifteen million dollars, you can say anything about me you want! You call me a terrorist, a mad bomber or whatever. Just reach into your deep, deep pockets and start counting out that sweet, sweet money honey!
Law enforcement can barely even admit they were wrong, let alone learn a lesson from it.
That always bugged me, how the press jumped on destroying him but was radio silence on him being innocent!
Exactly!
This is exactly why I came to the comments. They ruined that man's life and he was a hero.
As for pyramids Neil DeGrasse Tyson said it best: Just because you don't know how it's done, doesn't mean people who lived here thousands years ago didn't know it either.
Neil Tyson isn't as smart as he thinks, like the quote you just mentioned, doesn't actually awnser anything. Kinda just stated the obvious, the question is how do they build them not did the people who build them know how to build them.
Yeah, it's not suppose to answer anything. It just means you shouldn't make some shit up because you can't figure out how to do it.
But they know the pyramids were built with internal ramps. Tyson likes to sound smart. He likes the celebrity of it.
@@ThePage12589 It's not supposed to answer anything just to give you some insight. "I don't know how it's done so it must be aliens / god". That is a very limited way of thinking.
Yeah smart people are stupid
It's always mentioned that Luka Magnotta was arrested in an internet cafe, one detail that no one talks about is the fact that he was looking up articles about himself
A truly twisted individual
I've seen multiple videos about him that mention that he was looking up articles/news on himself.
Yeah, this suck twisted individual is a true narcissistic sociopath who only cares about himself and how many people are giving him attention. He also killed kittens on another video he posted online by stuffing them in a plastic bag and letting them suffocate. He did this purely for the attention it would get him.
Apparently he still has a following of women who throw themselves at him by writing letters and showering him with praise through the bars of his cell. Also, he legally changed his names to Luka for whatever reason. It wasn’t his given name.
@@KdotLINEyeah that’s a pretty well-known detail. 🤷🏼♀️
of course he was. he's the definition of a narcissist
Worth noting that the local Inuit people knew where the Franklin expedition ships were the entire time, but no one asked them or ignored their input.
The amount of times people ignore local indigenous groups, telling us what happened is truly frustrating
Name one other time besides this one bro, you can't.@@kathrynblakeley9823
Wasn't one of the ships found on an island that locals called "shipwreck island?" Part of the reason the expedition failed is that they believed so much in the superiority of everything British, that they equipped themselves for the Arctic in wool and other British textiles and scorned any Inuit knowledge of how to survive in the Arctic.
The Brits loved to claim discovery of things that where not discovered by them but simply new to them. The gorilla is a good example.
@@williambrandondavis6897Well, Europeans didn't exactly "discover" the Americas either, of course. When I hear colonial place names like Johnson Lake (fake example), I wonder how you can ignore all the locals who already named it, and then claiming that it's yours? That you own it? I'm going to find a nice beach and claim it for myself
The face of Mars was made by Phineas and Ferb when they travelled to Mars and the martians made a big statue of Candace.
Wrong. It’s the entrance to the native martians’ buggalo stable
Haha!
Candace is the queen of Mars. Such a shame she is invisible on Earth.
Was it one of the few times that she actually decided not to bust them when she saw it was her face?
I believe that the 2 missing Romanoff bodies were finally found in a separate grave not too far from the found mass grave.
Yes and their DNA was confirmed by matching against their closest living relative, Prince Phillip.
I really wanted to believe the story when I was a child in the 70s. It's still so sad to me that it's not true.
Yes they were found separate.
Yes, Alexei and (likely) Maria were found in a shallow grave not far from the original site. Their remains are still in storage because the Russian Orthodox Church keeps demanding more testing even though they’ve tested the bones at least three or four times.
@@batkat0Both Prince Philip for Alexandra and her children, because they share mitochondrial DNA. They identified Nicholas through DNA matches with his younger brother George, as well as a cousin, Xenia Sheremeteva and the late Duke of Fife, who share mitochondrial DNA with him.
Med student here, Methylmalonic Acidemia is a topic we were taught in year one and extremely well known. How it was mixed up with ethylene glycol poisoning to the point the mother was sent to prison is the real unsolved mystery here.
as a patient with a rare disorder i can tell you, docs do not look for anything rare. they miss it most of the time. they skim over it in med school too, i worked for oen so i know how they do things. i tried to change it but i doubt the president of the university even gave me a second thought.
it's not extremely well known
You do realize that this was over 30 years ago right. It might be taught now & it it might even include the fact that it can be confused with other things but 30 plus years ago not so much.
This could have been the case which caused them to add that to year one to avoid a repeat of that.
1 day after STEP 3, you will never think of it again. 5 years later, you'll know nothing about it.
I say this as one of your attendings. Trust me. Med school isn't making you smart, it's teaching you how to study and tolerate. This job is tolerating unfathomable quantities of BS, while still needing to study the most current literature for your specialty.
Best of luck.
As an anthropology student the drought theory on the mayas is still one up for debate, along with other factors like warfare with other groups.
Half of these are just theories not answers
I thought it odd that they said the drought was due to overpopulation. How are those two connected?
@smcgilli34 the Amazon rainforest creates its own clouds it's so hot and humid. If you chop down enough forest to create farmland or housing the land doesn't retain enough moisture to produce those rain clouds.
I thought just about everything from the ancient world they mentioned weren't "solved" just a new theory.
Is genocide or massacre committed by spaniards back then considered? Or did it happen earlier?
In regard to the Stonehenge section, specifically how they moved the stones 15 miles, I think Easter Island can answer that. I saw it on Nova or a show like that a few years ago. They also wondered how the islanders moved the carved heads to their positions. They said it appears the Easter Islanders used vine-ropes and 'walked' them to their final positions. They demonstrated it with about 10 men using ropes and found it to be highly effective.
It wouldn't be a surprise to me if it the Stonehenge builders discovered & used a similar method. People always find the easiest way to do something difficult or tedious.
that’s pretty much how the pyramids were built as well Edit: I commented before getting to the pyramids part of the video lol.
But how did they put the ones on top?
@@sweeper201 pulleys.
@@matthewmusco2581 ah duh!
The way I look at it, is that with all things that tend to stump us from the past, our thinking is based on what methods we have available to us now. When you have fewer things available, you become very resourceful. As technology advances, old techniques and methods are eventually lost because it just isn't as effective when compared to the methods and technology we develop to assist us as time moves on.
7:06 I don’t fully understand how they came to the conclusion that the plane crashed after the pilots ejected from it in the air, when they found the plane to be in good condition? Wouldn’t it be more likely that they just landed the plane when it ran out of fuel and died later trying to walk through the desert?
Not mentioned in the video. The airplane unknowingly picked up a tailwind. The crew likely bailed out because they thought they were still over the Mediterranean Sea and didn't want to risk being trapped in the plane if it came down in the water.
@@Bargle5 I watched a documentary about this and when the aircraft was discovered they found that none of the navigation equipment had been used. The bombing raid it went on also was cancelled and they were diverted to another target. during the reroute they think the aircraft got lost and there is a record of a random village being bombed which fits with the assumed flight path of the aircraft from the original target to the alternative one. They believe the Lady Be Good overflew the coast of Libya and kept going until the fuel ran out and some bailed out and some stayed with the aircraft until it made a controlled landing in the desert. All crew were lost to heat exhaustion and dehydration. All they found were fragments of uniform and bones. Ultimately it seems the aircraft and crew were killed by an inability to correctly navigate the aircraft and think that they usually got by because they flew in a massive formation and didn't really need to navigate just follow the group but once the main target was cancelled and the group rerouted they think the aircraft got lost somehow and this led to them dropping bombs in the wrong area and becoming unable to find their airfield on return to North Africa.

@@Matelot123they found the diary of the pilot. They ran out of fuel..bailed out . Died trying to head north from heat .
Don't forget the Dyatlov Pass incident. It was recently solved by two physicists who determined that the whole incident was caused by an avalanche. The members of the group who survived died of hypothermia, which explains why they were barely clothed, since a symptom of late stage hypothermia can make a person feel warm even if they aren't. Ask a Mortician has a great video explaining it.
Yes a slab type avalanche
LOVE Caitlin’s videos!
Ooh I remember hearing about that but did not know they figured out what happened. Tfs
Yep, they cut into the iced snow slab to put up their tent there, literally under the slab, it came down with the storm.
I love when mysteries, cold cases, and the unexplained actually get explain logically‼️‼️. I’d love to see a part II
3 of these aren't solved just guesses. Think for yourself for God sake🙄
@@aliway4136lol, chill
"logically" haha alot of the time these mysteries are not even solved but just given a random answer to shut people up. Most people don't even bother to ask questions and they just accept it for what it is

I honestly don't blame Patricia Stallings for suing the lab that misdiagnosed what killed her son Ryan
She probably should've sued the city for false imprisonment ad well
*as
@@pallascat1743
Implying in that case the Woman WAS guilty and she killed herself to Hide the truth
The case of the Stalling death is entirely different
She really should have taken every last one of them to court for eather money or an end to there careers.
Right. They made her miss her baby’s funeral. I can’t imagine the pain she must’ve endured.
@@ashpie22 I thought that was so awful too. That's something they took from her that they can never give back.
Did not know there was an Umbrella Man or a conspiracy theory around it, but immediately realized it was used as a plot point in The Umbrella Academy.
Shows you how silly people actually can be.
Michelle McNamara was married to Patton Oswalt and even though her research and book lead to solving the case of the Golden State Killer, the police tried to take full credit for solving it and acted as if her work had no impact on their case.
Thank you, someone had to say it.
so whats the point of including mr Patton Oswalt in your sentence.
@@jerometenorio7221he’s got his own nefarious deeds associated with himself as well.
@@2dollab178The actor? What did he do?
Despite being married to a famous actor who sang her praises and work on the Golden Gate Killer case, she was still erased from the telling of how this historic case was solved.
You know I love a good bonechilling mystery that turns out to have a perfectly logical and almost silly explanation. It’s just nice to think that some things that seemed scary or the work of evil turn out to be just normal.
Most of these aren't answers. Just other theories
That's it for almost everything. There is always a logical explanation for everything. Some things we just haven't found it out yet.
Honestly - what I love about a lot of them is it proves sometimes the scariest thing, is the unknown. Because once we know a lot of these things, they just ... stop being scary.
Big scary haunting thing? Nope, totally normal thing that due to distance/material it travels through it sounds spooky but it's normal and daily.
And some didn’t. Like the umbrella man nonsense
@@aliway4136 moron lmao
We need to stop grabbing our pitchforks before it’s absolutely necessary. Getting innocent people locked up isn’t cool at all, no matter what your political beliefs.
Seriously
Nahhhhhh we love it, and we'll continue to do it under the next "civilisation"
Will never happen in the US where vengeance reigns over patience and justice.
I’m ALL over the political spectrum so I can generally get along with anyone (so long as they have an open mind, which is becoming a rare trait), but I have zero patience for anyone who dehumanizes a political opponent, who makes false accusations, or who acts out in violence. Not only is it childish, it’s terroristic.
“Don’t you know history? Change comes from violence!”
Anyone making this claim is using human’s tendency for war as their reasoning, and as such, are NOT good thought leaders. Change doesn’t have to come with violence, just look at the Velvet Revolution, MLK’s civil rights marches, women’s sufferage.
People are so nasty and tribal now, I don’t even think many people are willing to rebuild bridges. Both sides did a sublime job demonizing each other.
@@MantisTobogganM.D.-yo3vj You're proving his point.
10 is a classic example of pareidolia - the human tendency to see faces in random natural patterns. pattern recognition is one of the most essential characteristics of human cognition and detecting human faces is critical to our survival as a species.
Or they took a picture of another random hill somewhere in Atacama and said , hey look nothing to see here.
@@Dangic23 Yeah, that's why we still have multi million dollar research programs aimed at trying to find evidence of microbial life on Mars. If the face on mars had significant value, then they would use THAT as a center of evidence. What you should do is thank science for being able to produce those rudimentary images in the first place. Not try to refute the credibility of space programs based on their prior work.
@@Hares_Pit
I’ve been to Atacama.
Supporting the NASA ops there.
The human mind craves explanation. People wonder how religions started… pretty simple in reality. We needed to appease our mind about things we had no understanding about back then. The causes of natural disasters, disease, death in general etc
NASA has already proven that they can not be trusted on multiply accounts. and if there was nothing there then why not just take the Rovers over to where the "Face" is and just show that it's nothing. Instead NASA does everything it can to argue and say how pointless it is to go to the location.
we're exploring, there is no reason NOT to go. just to see it from the ground level and EXPLORE the area.
The biggest mystery here is how did Pierre April get in that ditch far away from home. And after watching this, i still don't know.
My thoughts exactly.
I know grown men that got doped at a club. Maybe that's it.
Wow...that Ryan Stallings story is heartbreaking, that poor mother.
It's up there with the "Dingo ate my baby" case.
How is the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi even a mystery? It took less than a month for it to be solved. Not to mention being so high on this list
Yeah considering he was literally murdered by the Saudi governemnt which was completely illegal.
And the Narrator continually mispronouncing his name 🤦♀️
And everyone in planet earth knew who was responsible...
Same with Jun Lin’s death. Both are tragic, but it didn’t take much time at all for Luka Magnotta to be caught and arrested. That isn’t a mystery, especially when some of these had been unknown for decades!
Maybe that there were no consequences.
Rip Jun Lin ❤ wish our police would've done more for you. Hearing about this when I was a kid,a few buildings over from my sister's house,most people thought this was indeed a mystery,but you find out it wasn't a mystery to Montreal,or Toronto police when you watch "Don't F with Cats" they had been warned about Luca countless times by the people tracking him.
Did he ever give a reason for doing it?
@509sAngel he never said but on the documentary he seems that he wanted to be a star , posted fake rumors of him and stars like Madonna and one were he pretented that he was dating or something a woman who helped her husband kidnap and kill several very young girls etc... fakes account of fans witch were all him praising himself on facebook , the murder was like the movie basic instincts he was fan of and others movies alike he copied. They are even a sequence video where he was interrogated in a room and smoked while crossing his legs like once again in basics instincts.
The documentary is in 3 part and start at the beginning with how he tortured and killed cats and posted the videos on facebook never showing is face and how the hackers tried to locate and identify him and alert the police because they were worried how long it will takes till he start killing people, witch he did and posted the video like the ones of cats before the body was discovered. He was caught because he stopped to a cybercoffe for checking the news of himself on the run on the computer and the owner recognised him.... (Sorry for the long text. Also, english is not my language, so i probably made a lot of mistakes 😅)
@@llologuesh if he was jailed in Canada he's probably out by now living off welfare in a publically funded half way house.....woke Canada. Be on guard, thousands of criminals living in our neighbourhoods.
"Imagine waking up in a ditch with only $17 in your pocket and no idea who you are or where you came from." Sounds great-I'd have no memory of all the crap I'd been through, and I'd be $13 richer.
I see that as well, but also like many thrillers and sci fi. You wouldnt remember to be happy that you have no memory of the bad things. Thats the caveat. And youd spend so much time trying to find out what you meant to forget. I suppose like an oroboros. Which is so messed up. Ive thought waaay too much on it sincei realized that.
I once met a member of a Khashoggi family and she pronounced her last name as "Kah-sho-gee". I remember the news about his murder and I never heard his name pronounced it like this Mojo Lady did. I even had to google "how to pronounce 'khashoggi"...i was so surprised by this peculiar way to say it
Seriously. It's in the news reports correct, why not do the research and get it right for the voice over?
They mispronounce names so often.
@@tamarleahh.2150it’s usually to increase comments and engagement - people will comment to correct the names and so it increases engagement, whereas correct pronunciation wouldn’t attract any comments, obviously. So we’ve all fell for it, one way or another lol
DIfferent accents for different people.
The correct pronunciation of "Khashoggi" is "kha-shog-ji." The "kh" is pronounced as a guttural sound, similar to the Scottish "loch."
Even more details are in John Fam's video: "Khashoggi - how to pronounce Khashoggi's name correctly. - Arabic accent."
On the show Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack, some cases have been solved many years later (long after Robert Stack died), but many still remain unsolved
Thats why that show will always be super creepy to me. and the way he'd say "up-date!"
Also - if you want to help out an entire community, there’s dozens of mysterious and unidentified songs that need ears on UA-cam if anyone wants to works to solve some lighter, non-criminal unsolved mysteries from home. You can find a 3 hour video compilation here on UA-cam in fact.
R.I.P., Robert Stack.
I miss his voice
Like, 2 decades later, and when I someone mentions Robert Stack, I still only hear Tourette’s Guys “UPDATE”
You’ve got all these long standing mysteries and then you have Luka Magnotta. I wouldn’t say that was “Finally Solved”. It took them like a week 😂
But it was a really long week.
The man who was blamed for bombing at Olympics, yet ultimately found not guilty a thus had saved lives, is a terrible thing to happen to a hero. Hope those who thought it was him, apologized & he was awarded. This was a true show of who people are. Suspicious & quick to assume blame.
The "Lady Be Good" was not a single-engined aircraft, as the footage showed; it was a four-engined Consolidated B-24 Liberator with a crew of nine, which crash-landed in the Libyan Desert after the crew bailed out. One died when his parachute failed to open; the other eight perished in the following days.
Thank you, Mojo - for saving me from watching like 40 hours of documentaries. 😊
Documentaries are cool tho
Most explanations are wrong
😂😂
Ryan, don't be so dimwitted to believe what you see on this channel. Too bad you'll never know how many "facts" they've gotten wrong in just this one video. This channel isn't known for its intellectual content.
Oh, you're one of THOSE. Ok, good luck with that. lol
I'm familiar with the golden state killer and the death of Ryan Stallings. I learned about these mysteries from other videos. The Golden State Killer's home was broken into and the guy got arrested. He was surprised. I'm glad he was caught! I feel bad that the mother was accused of murder!🙁 At least, she was released from prison and sued a lab. I had no idea there were other creepiest mysteries solved, too. That's amazing!
But he wasn’t called the night stalker that was Richard rameriez
@@Bigmoney1984 the first Night Stalker was the Golden State Killer.
@@Bigmoney1984 The Original Night Stalker = DeAngelo / The Night Stalker = Ramirez
I thought Ryan Stallings mother was not going sue, I'm so happy she sued. In the country where I'm from if such happened and the supposed suspect was exonerated, it will be advisable that the way it was so published in print and video media, she should publish her exoneration. Because people sometimes only remember the bad and not the eventual good
Very true. People still ridicule the elderly woman whose lawyer sued McDonald's over the boiling coffee they served.
It literally MELTED her vagina, not to mention her inner thighs.
She couldn't afford her medical bills so she wrote to McDonald's Corp & asked for help.
Their response was to launch a massive campaign to ridicule and vilify her. Her family stepped in & hired a lawyer.
Then in order to receive anything, she had to sign a contract that completely silenced her so she could never defend herself.
She received hate mail & suffered horrible pain until the day she died....while talking heads on tv continued sneering & laughing at her.
Just as in the case of Ryan Stallings' mother and in the case of Richard Jewel, and cases going on TODAY, the media is complicit with billion-dollar corporations and corrupt government agencies in publicly smearing and convicting people of crimes.....not only before an actual trial, but before all the facts are known.
US media is despicable.
What happened to her was horrible, but it's not the reason for the punitive damages being so high. If this had been a one-time thing where, like if there was an accidental equipment failure, I don't she would have received anything. She did place the coffee in her lap and not safely in a cup holder. But, they had been warned multiple times, had logs proving that the temperatures were found to be at dangerous levels often and over a ling time that violated food safety and regulations and there was evidence that this was known by upper management and the problem had never been looked after. The punitive damages portion is not to say that's what the victim should receive as compensation for their injury. It's to punish the guilty party so they, and all others, learn that there are consequences. If the awarded money isn't ridiculously high what happens is like Ford calculating it costs more to fix exploding cars than to pay out the insurance claims of the deaths. So yes, her injuries were gruesome. But if it had been an isolated incident, then I doubt her medical bills would even had been covered.
#16 ~ A local woman was interviewed. Apparently police investigators at the time felt she had a connection with him. She did! She knew exactly who he was. But, pretended she didn't. That truth also came out in 2022. It is believed that she lied for one of two reasons. One, she was married at the time and having an affair with Webb. Two, she and Webb were spies who worked together. If the truth had come out, she'd likely be tried and executed by the Government. Unfortunately the woman died before the truth came out. So, there's still a mystery with this one.
i'm surprised this doesn't include the dyatlov pass incident. it was determined that a minor avalanche hit their campsite in the middle of the night, which is why they fled without getting dressed and why they had to cut themselves out of their tents, as well as why they all ran different directions. the radioactivity on the bodies is due to the whole area exhibiting low-grade radioactivity and most of the damage to the bodies (aside from the skull fracture on one, which was likely caused by the avalanche itself) was due to scavenging from animals.
That is just another theory.
A game theory
Everyone knows
@@bugsyproductions3140 everyone knows what?
Because people love coping and seething
The death of ryan stallings is truly a sad story 😥
For those that want to know more about Jun Lin, or who just like REALLY good true crime documentaries, I cannot recommend “Don’t F*ck With Cats” enough. It’s fantastic and gripping from start to finish.
Loved that documentary!
Yes, indeed it is!
People use umbrellas to cover from the sun. It is not that unusual.
Very true. See it a lot in Florida
#17 Look up the Gurdon Light. It's a similar story but has a hitch. The light has reports dating back long before any highway was constructed in the area.
RIP Gordon Lightfoot
I love all the Spook Light stories. Joplin, Paulding, Marfa, & Brown Mountain lights
Great info! Even though the woman claiming to be Anastasia made it up, I had hoped she actually was. It would have made for a wonderful historical event that someone from the Romanov Family escaped.
That's exactly how I felt. I have books about it and everything.
Although all of the ruling family-tsar tsarina and the kids did not survive. They had many other family members that survived. There is even a group of pretenders(those who could rule but can’t) of the imperial house of Romanov. They are not welcome in Russia and live in exile all over the world.
@@jasminestanbury9693There are issues with each of the pretenders legitimacy claims, so even if Russia wanted to bring the monarchy it would be difficult to chose who actually is the rightful heir.
Simon Whistler making a cameo on WatchMojo is like an Avengers movie in UA-cam form.
I actually yelped when I saw his glorious bald head pop up on screen.
I remember watching unsolved mysteries and telling my friends that it freaked me out. When they asked what the episodes were about. I said I don't know I couldn't get past the intro lol
You should definitely watch more of an episode! Some aren't as "creepy" and are more about finding people's family if they'd been separated, and things like that. You can always skip the intro, if needed
@@GoldieDoggy I was only joking about the intro, I've just about watched every episodes, including the netflix ones. In Australia we even had our own version called the Extraordinary. Which even had a story told by Robert Stack about one of his experiences.
I love how Whistle Boy just randomly pops in at 12:17
Took me a second to realize you were calling Simon Whistler Whistle Boy 😂
@@nikki9125 he calls himself that, and I watch so many of his channels, it's kinda stuck in my mind now. That and Fact Boy

(I watch his stuff every day, as soon as it pops up, but I was def. not expecting him here. Thought it was Brain Blaze for a hot minute.) 🤣🤣
So we now know who the Somertan Man was, but did they ever figure out how he died? Last I heard, he had no wounds on him, there was no trace of any poison, no signs of any illness, nothing. Were they ever able to establish a cause of death?
Thank you i was literally saying this at the t.v. I didn't care as much about who he was as why he was there.
No, no cause.
suicide
I am pretty sure it was suicide. Another channel covered it when the mystery was solved by I don't remember exactly which one. Maybe Lazy Masquerade.
I thought I read he had poisoned himself. Or rather, than poison was found in his system, and combined with the Tamam Shud note ("It is finished") and his family's recollection that he was pretty depressed for years, it makes some sense.
“Brandishing an umbrella despise the sunny weather”… many people use umbrellas to shield themselves from the sun. Not really a mystery
#11 - Luka Magnotta had put out three other depraved videos before the Jun Lin video. The first one is called “One Boy, Two Kittens.” In this video, he suffocates two kittens using a plastic bag and a vacuum. In the second video, he drowns a kitten in a bathtub, and in the last video, he feeds a kitten to a python.
In the Jun Lin video, he puts a live puppy in Jun’s torso. Sadly, the puppy was found dead in trash bags discarded in the dumpster from Magnotta’s apartment.
I saw an article about his life in prison. These are his words:
"I’m outside the majority of the time; I play a lot of video games,” he said. “We have movie nights. “We all have our own TVs. I have painting class, and I exercise a lot. I practice language studies. People need to be proud of their accomplishments. Know your value and share it with everyone.”
It was also reported that he talks with his mother almost every day, and she visits him regularly. He also got married to a fellow inmate. Lovely🥴
I don't know about you all, but this really p*ssed me off!
The only way to solve a unsolved mystery is to solve it
The legendary monkey has spoken! Such great wisdom!
Wow, so profound!111
No way
Go ahead and show us all how it's do e
It’s not an unsolved mystery if it’s been solved
You should do a list of top 10 unsolved mystery episodes!
They have done a few of those
They have
You forgot the Boy in the Box has a name. Joseph Augustus Zarelli is his name.
Stonehenge was mostly laying on the ground by the 1800s. The owner in the early 1900s had them placed as they are now and cemented them into place
I remember going to an archeological conference in the late nineties where someone suggested that over irrigating (causing salt buildup in the soil) was at least a contributing cause to the collapse of the Maya. So that's not exactly hot news.
EDIT: late nineties, not mid. My brain is not functioning properly.
In a 3,000 year old mystery, 25 years is pretty recent
But where did the Maya go after they abandoned their cities? That was not explained.
Underwater was a fantastic underrated movie. What a treat it was when it was revealed that Cthulhu was the true monster of the Deep! Cthulhu is just not in enough high budget blockbuster films. We need more Lovecraftian movies with a significant budget!
Yes! More respect needs to be shown to the Elder Gods! Cosmic horror is truly an under utilized genre.
My heart almost stopped with that jump scare! Totally unexpected. Lol.
The case of the golden state killer is terrifying fascinating but I would suggest you don’t look it up if you live alone!
One comment on the Paulding Lights.. One investigative crew went out there to check out the lights and they tried to prove that it was car headlights but the lights on the road there didn't line up with where the lights were supposedly coming from. Also they divided up into groups using radios to communicate and while one group was seeing the lights near where the second group was the second group didn't see the lights at all. All of this was documented and they proved absolutely that they weren't headlights from cars. So I don't know where these people got their information from.
That's my only real gripe, if we can find this information easily than surly a whole team at whatculture can, so there's really no excuse.
@@kamenanew9867 Thought I would like to mention that in their investigation they split up the team to have some people around the area where the lights would suppose to appear and the others at the spot where they would see it. They were totally baffled because the crew at the observation point saw the lights while the crew that was near where they should have appeared saw nothing! They were stationed much closer to the road and would have seen car headlights it that were the case.
This one seems like a bit of a lazy list, with a lot of guesses/theories rather than actually provable examples.
What about the Boy in the Box.
I miss old school Unsolved Mysteries
I LOVED that Don't F**k with with Cat's documentary, really worth the watch, and how he was captured was really good, loved it.
He = Luca Magnotta
Number seven is so messed up. I remember hearing about it years ago on Unsolved Mysteries and the state of Misiouri was so pig headed on admitting that they made a mistake. It was just horrible, they were trying to take away their other son.
Watchmojo has made so many unsolved mystery type videos that my brain finds it weird to hear an explanation at the end of each in this video.
This is pretty good. Great clips. Interesting mysteries and stories. I love mysteries and detective stories too. Some are creepy. Great list :)
Fun fact, the golden state killer leaved down my street! I trick or treated at his house one year and never did again bc i got odd vibes. My dad thought i was just being dramatic bc "why would a 14 year old girl get off vibes from a 70 year old man". By the time i graduated, there was at least a dozen police cars baracading off our street. The next day my dad was just thankful that every halloween i always went out with a big group of other kids from school.
I believe it. Knowing everything we know now, I'm absolutely astounded that he went so long without being caught.
God damn. 30 years later and Robert Stack's voice still gives me chills
I am surprised the boy in the box is not on here.
Jewel was a hero and they tried to blame it on him.
What a shame for Richard Jewell, not sure if he ever got his life back even when he was freed
There were 2 missing Romanov bodies not found until 10 years after the first batch were found. There was still hope for Anastasia....but then the final DNA test on the newly found bodies confirmed that all the Romanov'svwer accounted for. And it wasn't even Anastasia who was initially missing it was her sister Marie.... Anastasia was one of the original bodies found. Trivia it was Prince Philip's DNA they used to check the match....he was related to the Romanovs through his mother AND his father.
I've been to the Paulding light
It's definitely highway lights but the locals don't believe that
The truth behind mysteries usually is rather boring and they’re always better when they’re mysteries because then it can be anything and your imagination can run wild
Wow. This segment of WatchMojo educated me about the Golden State Killer, specifically Michelle McNamara 18:15.
She was comedian Patton Oswalt's first wife, who had died tragically in her sleep. But her work as a crime writer helped to catch this guy, and I'm sure her work has helped in giving closure to other victim's families. What a legacy to leave behind.
I'm actually surprised they went with the Golden State Killer when BTK was right there and such a crazy story when it came to how he was caught. "If I send you stuff on a floppy, can you trace it?" "Nah, you're good." and he did. And they lied.
You should read her book I'll Be Gone in the Dark if you haven't already. She was writing it when she passed unfortunately and I believe the tireless work she put into it aided her death but the killer was caught. Her husband helped finish the book. It's a gripping read, highly recommend!
I knew about this but didn’t know she had a book. Can’t wait to get into that one.
How did it help to catch the killer? He was caught due to investigative genetic genealogy.
That “don’t fuck with cats” documentary is really good if you’ve never watched it
Everybody breath easy, WatchMojo solved the mystery of stonehenge.
😂 hardly
Will always enjoy Robert Stacks voice from Unsolved Mysteries.
There was a photo of the Somerton Beach Man with his family at some gathering. You should have shown that. I am also kind of surprised you didn't cover "The Boy in the Box."
On the pyramid thing, what a gloss over
I agree, like what about the blocks in the kings chamber high up within the pyramid complex. 50 or so blocks, each weighing between 50-70 tons each. Also the heaviest single piece block in the pyramid complex weighed an estimated 400 tons
AND.......there's Simon Whistler
I can't stop laughing at the way she says Pierre April. Hilarious
Yes. Almost as funny as you not providing a real pronunciation.
If I remember #7 correctly, and it’s the same story I’m thinking of, even after it became known what actually happened to the first child, prosecutors tried to block that evidence. Despite the fact the evidence clearly proved her innocence, they were proud of their actions and seem to genuinely believe blocking that evidence was the right thing to do.
Yea that's what prosecutors do alright. There used to be a time when they could be sued or something I've heard they have some kind of immunity.
I have to say that I'm kind of glad the Somerton Man's mystery got solved. The bit about getting the clothes from a nephew I hadn't heard when I watched the special you cite.
For anyone wondering, though, he was kind of an asshole, and that was why no one ever reported him missing. The woman the police approached at the time who refused to speak to them was likely someone he was involved with who didn't want anything to do with the case, as he was found close enough to her home that she might have been the last person he spoke to. The scrap of paper was a poetic suicide letter, as it turned out that he was a bit of a poet when he wasn't being an asshole.
Fucked up thing is that the man who ultimately found the right person to process the DNA married that woman's grand daughter, as they'd met while he was trying to learn about the lady. But as far as I'm aware they have a pretty healthy marriage.
Wow, i didn't know these were finally solved... Good thing I came across this video!
I never understood the umbrella mystery … like if you go to a beach there are hundreds of them for shade from the sun
So really it’s far less suspicious having one up in the sun than if it was cloudy and dull without any rain 🤷🏻♂️
That's why I believe that every single mystery or creepy story has a logical explanation. I don't believe in the supernatural even though I hope there is something fantastical out there.
The Franklin Expedition was never a mystery to local native people. They knew exactly where the ships were because they had talked with people from the ships. They told the British government where the ships were, and they were ignored.
It wasn't until a few years ago when people looked exactly where the local people said the ship was, and they found it, sunk in shallow water.
What a bunch of terrifying crimes to finally be solved
They weren't all about crimes.
Geographics Man taught me about the Tunguska Event.👍
I was not expecting the sea monster! It made me jump! LOL
Hey! I saw Simon Whistler in the video. 😂
Umm…I thought Rob and his crew ruled out it being headlights. Plus let’s keep in mind that the lights we have now are not the same as the ones they had when it started
The great pyramid of Giza was the tallest man made structure in the world for 3,800 years at 481 feet tall.
It took 100,000 men 20 years to build it, using 2.3 million stone blocks, each having an average weight of 2.5 to 15 tons and chiseled into shape with copper tools.
It was surpassed in height by the lincoln Cathedral in 1311 at 524 feet tall.
Wow!
They didn’t use ramps tho it would have took more materials than in the pyramids to build ramps that size …. Just like they say they are tombs but no bodies of kings ever found in them that’s what the valley of the kings is for
All ancient Egyptian tombs are decorated, not the pyramids.
@@Bigmoney1984 I'm not sure if you know much about the shapes of pyramids, but they are sloped. Ramps are also sloped. What is 2+2?
@@danemr6808 if that is your only argument as to why they used ramps your not understanding what im saying the length of said ramps would be huge not to mention it would require more materials to build those ramps then what is in the pyramid itself
An umbrella on a sunny day is NOT suspicious...
I just watched the forensic files on Ryan stallings. At first you’re like holy shit this mother is a psychopath but she literally didn’t do any harm. Almost went to prison
WatchMojo really made a video 15 years ago and has been using the same format since
The pyramid one is still wrong
Fun fact with Anastasia: we still aren’t entirely sure which body is Anastasia and which one is her sister, Maria. Russian scientists claim Anastasia was found with her parents and two older sisters in 1991 while American scientists say she was found much later with her brother, Alexei, in 2007. We may never know because of decomposition and the fact that the sisters were close in age.
# 12 - Sailing Stones 7:50
the thin layer of ice trapes the stones.
the wind blowing over the large surface area of the ice
causes the ice to move.
in turn the ice pushes against the trapped stones, moving them
and they leave a trial of their movement.
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! The collapse of the Maya civilization is a very interesting one indeed.. 🥶
I thought for sure after your explanation of the pyramids and Stonehenge that you were also going to inform us that Richard Jewel was in fact guilty.
"Finally, the mystery of what happened to the ships trying to travel through ice is revealed!!! ... they got stuck in the ice."
