0:28
Speaker 1: let's get into today's stories. On December twentieth, twenty nineteen,
0:44
Speaker 1: fourteen year old Harley Dilly was on his way to school.
0:47
Speaker 1: It was the last day before vacation and he was
0:49
Speaker 1: furious with his parents. The night before, he had gotten
0:52
Speaker 1: into a huge fight with them and as punishment, they
0:54
Speaker 1: had confiscated his phone. That afternoon, Harley did not come home,
0:58
Speaker 1: so his parents called the school to say, have you
1:00
Speaker 1: seen our son? And they said, well, we know he
1:02
Speaker 1: was here today, but we don't know where he went
1:04
Speaker 1: after that, so the parents called some of Harley's friends,
1:07
Speaker 1: and none of his friends had seen him after school.
1:09
Speaker 1: His parents were worried, but they had seen this kind
1:11
Speaker 1: of behavior before when Harley got really mad. He had
1:14
Speaker 1: a history of running away from the house and staying
1:17
Speaker 1: out overnight. He usually crashed with some friend and they
1:20
Speaker 1: would cover for him, or sometimes he would even sleep
1:23
Speaker 1: in abandoned buildings, and so that day the police were
1:26
Speaker 1: not called. The next day, when Harley still didn't show up,
1:29
Speaker 1: the parents started to get a little bit more worried,
1:31
Speaker 1: and because their son didn't even have his phone, they
1:33
Speaker 1: had no way of getting in touch with him, and
1:36
Speaker 1: so they finally said, we've got to go to the police.
1:38
Speaker 1: So the police launched a formal search for him, and
1:41
Speaker 1: right away there was no leads. Nobody knew where he was.
1:44
Speaker 1: Weeks went by and the family was putting up posters
1:47
Speaker 1: all over town telling their son that you're not in trouble,
1:50
Speaker 1: please come home, and everybody in the community is out
1:52
Speaker 1: there looking for Harley, but there was just no sign
1:55
Speaker 1: of him. Finally, almost a month after he had gone missing,
1:58
Speaker 1: the police received a tip. The house across the street
2:00
Speaker 1: from Harley's house was a vacant home because the owners
2:03
Speaker 1: were actually renovating the property, so they weren't living there,
2:05
Speaker 1: but they had cameras set up on the outside, and
2:08
Speaker 1: one of their cameras, when they reviewed it, picked up
2:10
Speaker 1: Harley walking towards their property on the day he went missing.
2:14
Speaker 1: And so the police show up at this property. The
2:15
Speaker 1: owners show up, they give them the key. The police
2:17
Speaker 1: go inside. They're yelling for Harley. They check all the
2:20
Speaker 1: doors and all the windows, and everything is locked. There's
2:22
Speaker 1: no sign of a break in. They go upstairs and
2:25
Speaker 1: in one of the bedrooms they see there's a jacket
2:27
Speaker 1: lying on the ground and it would turn out to
2:28
Speaker 1: be Harley's. It was the same one he had on
2:30
Speaker 1: when he went missing. And next to the jacket on
2:33
Speaker 1: the ground is this weird metal plate. And so after
2:35
Speaker 1: seeing this, the police believe Harley must be up on
2:38
Speaker 1: the second floor somewhere. He must have been hiding out
2:40
Speaker 1: in this vacant house the whole time. They don't know
2:42
Speaker 1: how he got in, but clearly this is his stuff,
2:45
Speaker 1: and so they start yelling for him and walking around
2:47
Speaker 1: the second floor and it's silence. There's no sign of Harley,
2:50
Speaker 1: and so they go back in the room where his
2:52
Speaker 1: jacket and his plate is and they look up on
2:54
Speaker 1: the wall and pretty high up there's a hole in
2:57
Speaker 1: the wall and it looks to be about the same
2:59
Speaker 1: size as this, and they realized this plate is actually
3:02
Speaker 1: a vent cover, and that is a event. Suddenly police
3:05
Speaker 1: believe this could be a lot more sinister, that perhaps
3:07
Speaker 1: someone had harmed Harley and then taken evidence and stuffed
3:11
Speaker 1: it into a vent inside of a vacant house. So
3:13
Speaker 1: one of the officers gets a stool, they put it
3:15
Speaker 1: in front of this vent. They climb on top and
3:17
Speaker 1: they reach in to feel around for more evidence, and
3:19
Speaker 1: as soon as they reach in, they touch something and
3:21
Speaker 1: they pull their hand back out and they say there's
3:23
Speaker 1: a person in there. And it would turn out the
3:25
Speaker 1: person inside of there was Harley and he was deceased.
3:27
Speaker 1: Although no one knows exactly what happened to Harley, the
3:30
Speaker 1: leading theory is he climbed onto the roof of this
3:33
Speaker 1: vacant home on the day he went missing, and he
3:35
Speaker 1: looked down the chimney. There was no cap on it,
3:37
Speaker 1: and from his perspective, it looked like he'd be able
3:40
Speaker 1: to fit all the way down to the bottom. But
3:42
Speaker 1: what he didn't know was this chimney was wider at
3:44
Speaker 1: the top, and then as it went down it got
3:47
Speaker 1: narrower and narrower and narrower, and in fact, the most
3:50
Speaker 1: narrow section towards the lower half. He never could have
3:53
Speaker 1: got through. This was an impossible thing he was trying
3:56
Speaker 1: to do. But regardless, he went in feet first and
3:58
Speaker 1: he began making his way down, and then about the
4:00
Speaker 1: halfway point he started to get stuck. And he believed
4:03
Speaker 1: it was because of his big, bulky jacket. And as
4:06
Speaker 1: it happened, he was right in front of this hole
4:08
Speaker 1: in the wall, which was the vent, and so he
4:10
Speaker 1: managed to punch the metal plate off of the vent.
4:12
Speaker 1: He got his jacket off, and he forced it through
4:14
Speaker 1: this hole, thinking that would give him a little bit
4:16
Speaker 1: more room, and it did. He began to sink a
4:18
Speaker 1: little bit further, a little bit further, and then he
4:21
Speaker 1: decides to put both arms over his head to try
4:24
Speaker 1: to make himself as narrow as possible, and it works.
4:26
Speaker 1: He starts to move down, but at some point he
4:29
Speaker 1: gets completely stuck, and he's struggling to breathe because the
4:31
Speaker 1: chimney is tight in his chest and he's got his
4:33
Speaker 1: arms over his head and he's starting a panic, and
4:35
Speaker 1: he lets out a scream, But as soon as he
4:37
Speaker 1: does that, the air coming out of his lungs causes
4:40
Speaker 1: his chest to compress, and he sinks just a little
4:43
Speaker 1: bit lower into that tight section of the chimney. And
4:45
Speaker 1: as soon as he comes to a stop, he tries
4:47
Speaker 1: to breathe back in again, but his chest can no
4:49
Speaker 1: longer expand to its full size, so he can't get
4:52
Speaker 1: a full breath, and so over and over and over again.
4:55
Speaker 1: As he's screaming and yelling for help, he's compressing his
4:57
Speaker 1: chest and sinking farther in farm into this inescapable trap,
5:01
Speaker 1: until he reaches a point where he cannot go any
5:04
Speaker 1: lower and his chest is crushed by the chimney. He
5:07
Speaker 1: can barely catch his breath. His arms are stuck over
5:10
Speaker 1: his head and his feet are dangling off the ground,
5:12
Speaker 1: and that is how he would stay until he suffocated
5:14
Speaker 1: to death in two thousand and two. Sean Doyle was
5:21
Speaker 1: a twenty five year old bartender who worked at a
5:23
Speaker 1: restaurant in Lower Manhattan in New York City. His regulars
5:26
Speaker 1: described him as a little guy who was very cordial
5:28
Speaker 1: and very friendly. He lived not that far away from
5:30
Speaker 1: the restaurant in an apartment building with his sister Shannon
5:33
Speaker 1: and his dog Emmett. And just down the hall from
5:35
Speaker 1: him was his good friend, forty seven year old Michael Wright.
5:38
Speaker 1: Sewn and Michael made an odd pair, not only because
5:41
Speaker 1: of their age difference, but because Michael was actually a
5:44
Speaker 1: huge guy, so the size differential was massive, But they
5:47
Speaker 1: were best buds and they hung out all the time.
5:48
Speaker 1: On December thirteenth of that year, Seawan had just worked
5:51
Speaker 1: a double. He got back to the apartment building and
5:53
Speaker 1: he was ready to cut loose for the weekend. And
5:55
Speaker 1: as soon as he got onto his floor, he looked
5:57
Speaker 1: down the hall and he saw Michael and his girlfriend
5:59
Speaker 1: getting ready to go out for the night, and they
6:01
Speaker 1: flagged him down and said, hey, you should join us,
6:03
Speaker 1: And Sean said, perfect, this is exactly what I wanted,
6:06
Speaker 1: And so he ran in his apartment, he dropped his stuff,
6:08
Speaker 1: he changed, came back out, and they headed to the bars.
6:10
Speaker 1: That night. The trio had a great time bar hopping
6:12
Speaker 1: all over Lower Manhattan, and then sometime in the early
6:15
Speaker 1: morning hours of December fourteenth, they decided that they had
6:19
Speaker 1: enough to drink and it was time to go home. Now,
6:21
Speaker 1: where they were was only a couple blocks away from
6:23
Speaker 1: their apartment building, so they decided they would just walk,
6:25
Speaker 1: and so they get out on the street and they
6:27
Speaker 1: start walking home, and at some point, Michael gets the
6:29
Speaker 1: impression that Sean is hitting on his girlfriend. It's unclear
6:33
Speaker 1: what gave him this impression, but apparently he really believed it,
6:36
Speaker 1: because as soon as he saw it, he launched an
6:38
Speaker 1: attack on Sean and started just beating him up in
6:41
Speaker 1: the middle of the street. Witnesses who lived in the
6:43
Speaker 1: apartments that were overlooking the street would later say they
6:46
Speaker 1: heard a scuffle outside, and they looked out the window
6:48
Speaker 1: and they saw a big guy wailing on a little guy. Then,
6:51
Speaker 1: with the whole neighborhood watching the big guy, Michael picked
6:55
Speaker 1: up the little guy, Sean, and shoved him, and Sean
6:58
Speaker 1: flew backwards, and he ran into this plastic chimney that
7:01
Speaker 1: was over this man hole. It was there to let
7:03
Speaker 1: steam escape and also to make sure nobody went in
7:06
Speaker 1: the manhole. But when Sewn rammed into it, it toppled over,
7:09
Speaker 1: exposing the man hole, and Sean fell eighteen feet to
7:12
Speaker 1: the bottom of it. As soon as he landed. Witnesses
7:15
Speaker 1: would say they heard a blood curdling scream. It would
7:17
Speaker 1: turn out the hole he had fallen into was filled
7:20
Speaker 1: with boiling water and scalding steam because of a nearby
7:24
Speaker 1: steam main leak. When police and paramedics arrived, they heard
7:27
Speaker 1: Sean screaming from the hole, and so they ran over
7:29
Speaker 1: and they get to the edge of the hole and
7:31
Speaker 1: they try to look down to get a look at Sean,
7:33
Speaker 1: but they're hit with the steam and it's so hot,
7:35
Speaker 1: and to back up, and finally the steam clears and
7:37
Speaker 1: they get a look at Sean and he's just standing
7:39
Speaker 1: in the middle of this hole, up to his waist
7:41
Speaker 1: in water. He's obviously an excruciating pain, and he's just
7:44
Speaker 1: reaching up for them as back as arched, and he's
7:47
Speaker 1: pleading with them to get him out of this hole.
7:49
Speaker 1: They turned off the steam mane and they tried to
7:51
Speaker 1: lower something down to him to try to pull him out,
7:53
Speaker 1: but his body was starting to shut down and he
7:55
Speaker 1: couldn't grab on. So they considered sending a person down
7:58
Speaker 1: to try to put a harness on him and try
8:00
Speaker 1: to get him out that way. But even with the
8:02
Speaker 1: steam maine off, it was over three hundred degrees inside
8:05
Speaker 1: of this hole, so no one could go down there,
8:07
Speaker 1: and so, knowing they could not help him, police paramedics
8:10
Speaker 1: and other onlookers just had to walk around the outside
8:13
Speaker 1: of this hole with their hands on their heads, listening
8:15
Speaker 1: to Shawn's desperate please for help, And finally, after ten
8:19
Speaker 1: minutes of agony, it went quiet. It would take four
8:22
Speaker 1: more hours for that hole to cool off enough that
8:24
Speaker 1: they could send someone down to retrieve his body. Judy Melanik,
8:27
Speaker 1: the famous New York medical examiner who did Shawn's autopsy,
8:30
Speaker 1: wrote in her book Working Stiff that Shawn's death was
8:34
Speaker 1: the worst one she had ever seen in her entire career.
8:36
Speaker 1: His fight with Michael and his fall into the hole
8:39
Speaker 1: did not contribute to his death. His actual cause of
8:42
Speaker 1: death was being steamed alive. But what makes this the
8:45
Speaker 1: worst death ever is that steam burns, no matter how severe,
8:49
Speaker 1: do not destroy nerve endings the way flames do, which
8:52
Speaker 1: means Sean would have felt everything. Michael was charged with
8:56
Speaker 1: second degree murder, However it's not listed online whether or
8:59
Speaker 1: not he was found guilty or what his sentence was.
9:05
Speaker 1: In two thousand and three, twenty seven year old Kurt
9:08
Speaker 1: Smith was employed as an engineer for the German shipping
9:11
Speaker 1: company called Hapag Lloyd. Over the past year, he had
9:14
Speaker 1: completed two separate four month long deployments with this company,
9:17
Speaker 1: and he enjoyed the work enough that he asked for
9:19
Speaker 1: a contract extension. It was granted, and on July eleventh
9:22
Speaker 1: of that year, he boarded the CM London Express to
9:25
Speaker 1: begin his third deployment. Three months into it, one of
9:28
Speaker 1: the ship's pistons broke. The piston is the part of
9:30
Speaker 1: the engine that goes up and down inside the hollow
9:33
Speaker 1: cylinder of the engine block. They would need to turn
9:35
Speaker 1: off the engine in order to make this repair, and
9:37
Speaker 1: so they made an unplanned stop in Savannah, Georgia. Once
9:40
Speaker 1: they got there, Kurt, along with seven people under his command,
9:43
Speaker 1: headed down to the engine room to begin the process.
9:46
Speaker 1: Over the next several hours, the men were able to
9:48
Speaker 1: extract the broken piston and put in the new one.
9:51
Speaker 1: But this was backbreaking work. It was so hot and
9:53
Speaker 1: the engine room, what they're moving around is so heavy
9:56
Speaker 1: and cumbersome, and they're all bickering with each other, and
9:58
Speaker 1: at some point Kurt called out the forour meat for
10:00
Speaker 1: being lazy, and the foreman did not like that, and
10:03
Speaker 1: he was very popular amongst this group, and so by
10:05
Speaker 1: the end of getting the piston back in, everybody in
10:08
Speaker 1: there just totally resented Kurt. But ultimately they got it done,
10:11
Speaker 1: and Kurt cut everybody loose except for the foreman. He
10:13
Speaker 1: told him he needed to stay back and help him
10:16
Speaker 1: ensure all the pistons were properly installed. To do that,
10:19
Speaker 1: they would need to go inside of something called the
10:20
Speaker 1: Scavenger air receiver, which is this tube that's fifty five
10:24
Speaker 1: feet long by five feet wide with access hatches on
10:27
Speaker 1: either side, and it sits right next to the engine block.
10:29
Speaker 1: Each hatch on either end had three latches on the
10:32
Speaker 1: outside that were called dogs. And so Kurt undid the
10:35
Speaker 1: three dogs on his hatch and he opened it up.
10:37
Speaker 1: He crawled inside of the tube with his flashlight and
10:39
Speaker 1: he began crawling, and on his left side were these
10:41
Speaker 1: square cutouts, these windows called scavenger ports, that looked into
10:45
Speaker 1: each of the engine cylinders. And so Kurt crawled along,
10:48
Speaker 1: counting the different cylinders until he got to the sixth one,
10:50
Speaker 1: which is where they had replaced that piston. Meanwhile, the
10:53
Speaker 1: foreman went around to the aft hatch. He under the
10:55
Speaker 1: three dogs. He opened up the hatch and then using
10:57
Speaker 1: a remote controlled device, he was able to bring the
11:00
Speaker 1: pistons into positions safely so Kurt could inspect them through
11:03
Speaker 1: the scavenger port. The procedure on the ship was if
11:06
Speaker 1: you were inspecting one cylinder, the expectation was is you
11:09
Speaker 1: would inspect all of them, and that entire process took
11:11
Speaker 1: about an hour, and Kurt just didn't feel like doing it.
11:14
Speaker 1: He was tired, he had a bad day, he was hungry,
11:16
Speaker 1: and so after he was certain the new piston was
11:19
Speaker 1: working just fine, he kind of rushed his checks on
11:21
Speaker 1: the other cylinders, and after only about twenty minutes he
11:24
Speaker 1: told the foreman that yep, we're good. We can leave.
11:26
Speaker 1: So he and the foreman got out. They dogged their hatches,
11:29
Speaker 1: and they headed up to their rooms to change their
11:31
Speaker 1: captain had been told they had to leave port no
11:33
Speaker 1: later than nine thirty that night because a huge tanker
11:36
Speaker 1: was coming in and there'd be no space for them.
11:38
Speaker 1: But at eight pm, as everyone is running around prepping
11:40
Speaker 1: the ship, somebody noticed Kurt was not at his workstation.
11:44
Speaker 1: The chief engineer called down to the engine room to
11:46
Speaker 1: ask anyone down there if they had seen Kurt, but
11:48
Speaker 1: nobody had, so a sailor was sent down to Kurt's
11:50
Speaker 1: cabin to see if he was in there, but he wasn't.
11:53
Speaker 1: At this point, because they only had about an hour
11:55
Speaker 1: until they were departing, they had to find Kurt. So
11:58
Speaker 1: they sounded the alarm on their ship, which was a
12:00
Speaker 1: little bit premature, but they figured, let's get everybody involved
12:02
Speaker 1: and just find Kurt, and so everybody stopped what they
12:05
Speaker 1: were doing and began searching the ship. During the search,
12:07
Speaker 1: a sailor was down near the Scavenger air recovery space
12:10
Speaker 1: and he noticed on the forward hatch there was a
12:12
Speaker 1: little piece of rag poking out of the top right
12:15
Speaker 1: corner of the forward hatch and the lower two dogs
12:18
Speaker 1: were not set. He knew they were having issues getting
12:20
Speaker 1: a good seal on this particular hatch because there was
12:23
Speaker 1: a divot in one of the O rings, and so
12:25
Speaker 1: he figured someone must have put a rag right over
12:27
Speaker 1: that divot to try to help seal this hatch, and
12:30
Speaker 1: they just forgot to shut the two lower dogs. Now,
12:32
Speaker 1: it did cross this sailor's mind that Kurt could have
12:35
Speaker 1: gotten inside of the Scavenger air recovery space and then
12:38
Speaker 1: somehow got locked inside, and so he did want to investigate. However,
12:42
Speaker 1: there was a very strict policy about who was allowed
12:45
Speaker 1: to actually open up these scavenger air recovery hatches, and
12:49
Speaker 1: it wasn't the sailor. It was only the foreman, the
12:51
Speaker 1: chief engineer, and Kurt. And so this sailor decided to
12:54
Speaker 1: play it safe and just close the lower two dogs,
12:56
Speaker 1: and then told his superior that there was this weird
12:59
Speaker 1: rag poking out of the forward hatch and that someone
13:01
Speaker 1: should go down there and open it up and see
13:03
Speaker 1: if Kurt's inside. And so his superior went and told
13:06
Speaker 1: the chief engineer. And so as the chief engineer is
13:09
Speaker 1: making his way down to check on this strange rag situation,
13:12
Speaker 1: the foreman, completely independently had gone around to the back
13:15
Speaker 1: of the scavenger unit to the aft hatch, so not
13:18
Speaker 1: the one with the rag poking out of it, and
13:20
Speaker 1: he unlocked the three dogs. He opened the hatch, he
13:22
Speaker 1: looked inside and shined his light, didn't see anyone, shut
13:24
Speaker 1: the hatch, locked all three dogs, and then began to
13:27
Speaker 1: walk away, right as the chief engineer came down and
13:29
Speaker 1: saw him, and he saw him securing the scavenger air unit,
13:33
Speaker 1: and he said, hey, I was just coming down here.
13:34
Speaker 1: To check to make sure Kurt wasn't in there, and
13:36
Speaker 1: you just checked, right, He's not in there. And the
13:38
Speaker 1: foreman said, yeah, no one's in there. It's all good.
13:40
Speaker 1: And so the two of them, the foreman and the
13:41
Speaker 1: chief engineer, did not check on the rag. They just left.
13:44
Speaker 1: The search for Kurt continued on the ship, but they
13:46
Speaker 1: could not find him, and so as nine point thirty
13:49
Speaker 1: was approaching, the captain called the poort authority. Then he said, hey,
13:52
Speaker 1: we're down someone. Can you please send someone out to
13:54
Speaker 1: look around? And so a search on the land began,
13:57
Speaker 1: but they couldn't find Kurt, and so finally nine thirty
13:59
Speaker 1: came aroun and the big container ship that was supposed
14:01
Speaker 1: to come in and take their place was just waiting
14:04
Speaker 1: right out in the water for them to leave. And
14:06
Speaker 1: so the captain did his best to linger for another
14:08
Speaker 1: ten to fifteen minutes, but finally they were forced to lead,
14:11
Speaker 1: even though they had no idea where Kurt was, So
14:13
Speaker 1: they fired up the engine and they left. The general
14:15
Speaker 1: consensus on the ship was that Kurt must have fallen
14:18
Speaker 1: overboard and drowned, or maybe he ran ashore and ran off,
14:21
Speaker 1: but that was very unlike him, and so an investigation
14:24
Speaker 1: was launched, but it would probably be a while before
14:26
Speaker 1: anybody found out what happened to him. Finally, two days
14:28
Speaker 1: later they arrived in port at Norfolk, Virginia. They powered
14:31
Speaker 1: off the engine and they got the ship ready to
14:33
Speaker 1: be put into harbor mode, where basically they opened up
14:35
Speaker 1: all the hatches and they prep it to sit there
14:37
Speaker 1: for a while. And during that process, the foreman went
14:40
Speaker 1: down to the Scavenger air recovery space and he opened
14:42
Speaker 1: up the forward hatch and he found Kurt. Although no
14:45
Speaker 1: one has all the details of what happened to Kurt,
14:47
Speaker 1: the leading theory is two days earlier, when he had
14:50
Speaker 1: done that abbreviated check of the engine cylinders, when he
14:53
Speaker 1: had basically cut it short with the foreman because he
14:55
Speaker 1: just didn't want to do it. He had gotten back
14:57
Speaker 1: up to his room and started to think to himself
14:59
Speaker 1: that if anything goes was wrong with any of those pistons,
15:02
Speaker 1: that I'm going to be to blame because the foreman
15:04
Speaker 1: was with me, and I called the foreman lazy earlier,
15:06
Speaker 1: and he doesn't like me, and so he's bound to
15:08
Speaker 1: turn me in. So Kurt decided he would go back
15:10
Speaker 1: down and do a more thorough check, but he didn't
15:12
Speaker 1: want anybody to know he was second guessing himself, and
15:15
Speaker 1: so he was going to do this alone, even though
15:17
Speaker 1: it was a huge no no to go inside of
15:19
Speaker 1: the Scavenger air unit by yourself, because if you managed
15:22
Speaker 1: to get stuck in there by yourself, horrible things are
15:25
Speaker 1: gonna happen to you, and there's nothing you can do
15:27
Speaker 1: to stop it. But Kurt was confident, so he headed down.
15:30
Speaker 1: He undogged the forward hatch, he swung it inside, he
15:32
Speaker 1: climbed in with his flashlight, and then somehow, once he
15:35
Speaker 1: got inside, he managed to fall backwards and hit the
15:39
Speaker 1: hatch door so hard that it swung shut, slammed, causing
15:43
Speaker 1: the upper dog to swivel and rotate down and lock
15:45
Speaker 1: him inside. He knew that nobody knew he was in there.
15:48
Speaker 1: He had made sure that nobody knew he was in there.
15:51
Speaker 1: He screamed for help, but nobody could hear him. The
15:53
Speaker 1: ship was so loud as it was, and being inside
15:55
Speaker 1: of this tunnel, no sounds getting out of it. And
15:58
Speaker 1: so he's looking around thinking what he should do, and
16:00
Speaker 1: he looks back at the door, the one that's sealed
16:02
Speaker 1: right behind him, and he sees the very top crack,
16:05
Speaker 1: there's a tiny sliver of light because even though one
16:08
Speaker 1: dog had sealed him in, because the other two had not,
16:11
Speaker 1: there was a little gap in the seal. And so
16:13
Speaker 1: he thought, if he can just wedge his dirty rag
16:15
Speaker 1: into that little space and push it out onto the
16:18
Speaker 1: other side, someone will see it, will clearly recognize there's
16:21
Speaker 1: a foreign object hanging off of the forward hatch, and
16:24
Speaker 1: they'll have to open it up and they'll find me.
16:26
Speaker 1: And so once he wedged his rag up and threw,
16:29
Speaker 1: he was confident he would be found. And so he
16:31
Speaker 1: slouched down against the back of the hatch and he
16:33
Speaker 1: just sat there, waiting to be found. And then a
16:35
Speaker 1: little while later he heard the sound of somebody not
16:38
Speaker 1: opening the hatch behind him as he thought they would,
16:41
Speaker 1: but instead locking the two dogs making sure it doesn't open.
16:45
Speaker 1: He must have got up and turned around and screamed
16:47
Speaker 1: for them, but again they can't hear him. And then
16:50
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes later, on the other side of
16:52
Speaker 1: the tube, fifty five feet away, the aft hatch opened
16:55
Speaker 1: up briefly. Somebody shined their light in. It didn't hit him.
16:58
Speaker 1: He tried to yell for them, they didn't hear him,
17:01
Speaker 1: and then he saw them shut the hatch, and he
17:03
Speaker 1: heard the sound of them locking all three dogs. At
17:05
Speaker 1: this point, you got to figure that Kurt's fear is
17:07
Speaker 1: at a primal level. He knows, at any moment, if
17:10
Speaker 1: somebody doesn't get him out of here, this is going
17:12
Speaker 1: to become a death trap. And so as he's looking
17:14
Speaker 1: around just wondering what's going to happen, he would have
17:16
Speaker 1: felt the incredible pressure start to build up in his ears.
17:19
Speaker 1: It would have taken him to his knees, would have
17:21
Speaker 1: been crushing in his skull, and he would have heard
17:23
Speaker 1: the sound of each of the hatches being pressed up
17:25
Speaker 1: against their o ring as the room began to pressurize.
17:28
Speaker 1: And then he would have heard the sound of the
17:29
Speaker 1: pistons beginning to churn inside of the engine cylinder right
17:32
Speaker 1: next to him. And at that point he would know
17:34
Speaker 1: there's no hope, and slowly, horribly, that room would begin
17:39
Speaker 1: to heat up until Kurt was cooked alive. So that's
17:41
Speaker 1: going to do it, guys. If you found the secret
