    I'm ojibwe and was raised in the southwest by my great uncle (who was navajo). For those outside the native cultures this may sound absurd, but it honestly sounds like the land is angry at being disturbed and it protecting itself from being polluted any further by people by chasing the people out and destroying anyone that stay.

      I LOVE this explanation.
      The original people in Hawaii told me a mountain was sacred and when I went up there I felt like I had to duck and whisper.
      And I kept asking why am I doing this??
      And since I’ve come back (2009) kinda been developing an idea that the earth might actually be alive.

    • @ranrajmirsen6887
      @ranrajmirsen6887 8 місяців тому

      YES, almost my thoughts exactly. Except I think it's more that the Native Americans in the region are protecting their land rather than the land being angry.
      I think a logical explanation for the disappearances of the people finding gold is that the Native Americans living in that region want to keep it as pure as possible. So whenever some asshole gold-mining businessman comes up there and finds gold and threatens to destroy and tear apart one of the last remaining untouched areas of Canada, they murder him (or them) and burn down any structures the mining people may have built there.
      Panning for gold in a land that doesn't belong to you, and planning to come back with your other white friends and maybe some heavy machinery and dynamite to destroy that beautiful park, is enough reason for any Native American to murder them when they had the chance. Then just cut their heads off and bury them somewhere to make the whole thing look mysterious.
      As MrBallen said, the police suspected no foul play and so they definitely didn't question anyone living in or around the area.
      It's also not outside of the realm of possibility that the Native Americans who warned the rescue crew of the spooky figures in the forest at night may have been the same people howling and making the scary noises.
      This doesn't explain the flash-frozen hunter or the story of the woman scaling the cliff, but it's a logical explanation for the rest of it IMO.
      Just my thoughts.

    • @WhitneyDahlin
      @WhitneyDahlin 2 роки тому +143

      I don't know if the police are protecting something in the valley so much as protecting themselves! The police probably didn't want to spend any more time in that valley than they absolutely had to and they definitely didn't want to spend the night out there if they could help it. So I kind of understand why they claim none of the deaths are connected and they are all just natural cause deaths. Because if that wasn't the case they would have a duty to go out there and stay and figure out what's going on and none of them wanted to do that. I don't even feel bad for those gold miners who CHOSE to go into headless valley after the original 3 deaths. Come on. There have been like a dozen mysterious deaths most of them involving decapitation and the name of the place is f**king HEADLESS VALLEY. I don't even feel bad for you if you CHOOSE to go out there. I honestly believe it was probably another Gold Miner/s who wanted to keep all of the gold in the area for themselves and so just started ambushing and killing anyone who was in the area. They probably figured if they killed enough people it would deter others from coming out there. It's also possible the native Americans didn't take kindly to randos showing up in their area using up their resources (wild animals for food chopping down trees etc) and taking their gold off their land. Either way it's probably safe now. I'm more interested in the caves along that area though. I really wish some brave cavers would go out there and explore the caves and film them so we can see what's in them.

      Take some liberties and have like one crazy hermit that lives there just outside the valley, they are the only person who lives in the valley at all, and the hermit gives the people going in an ominous warning that they ignore because obviously the crazy hermit is crazy.
      At the end of the movie when the last guy is running from whatever it is, they run to the hermit's home and hammer the door, the hermit doesn't even open it, you just hear their voice from the other side say something like "The valley doesn't like visitors" right before the last guy is pulled into the forest by some unseen force, you hear a scream, and the movie ends.

      This story was most likely a gold prospector or prospectors, creating a spook story and actually murdering other possible gold prospectors in order to keep them away and keeping the area to themselves to gold hunt. Burning their cabins, taking their gold. And when other people started with haunting stories, it lined up perfectly in their favor. It could have even been local government/law enforcement in on it. Striking a deal to take a portion while the area was kept clear for one group to mine.

    People do odd things. Even the most solid of folks could and did occasionally just snap. That’s what makes such event so disturbing to friends and family.
    Nobody ever actually knows what is going on inside another persons head. Sometimes events / circumstances happen, trouble brews in peoples minds and they eventually snap and are done.
