- 0:00Speaker 1: In twenty fifteen, a startling discovery was made inside of
- 0:04Speaker 1: this off limits area inside of a prominent South African hospital. Now,
- 0:08Speaker 1: at the time, no one really understood what this discovery meant,
- 0:12Speaker 1: and so eventually people just kind of forgot about it
- 0:15Speaker 1: and moved on until two years later when another eerily
- 0:19Speaker 1: similar discovery was made inside of another prominent South African
- 0:24Speaker 1: hospital in one of their off limits areas. I can't
- 0:27Speaker 1: believe this story has not gotten more pressed, because one
- 0:30Speaker 1: it's recent and two the implications of these discoveries are
- 0:35Speaker 1: mind boggling. But before we get into that story, if

- 0:57Speaker 1: Okay, let's get into today's story. On October fourth, twenty seventeen,
- 1:15Speaker 1: a sixty one year old father of six named tatk
- 1:19Speaker 1: Kotsi arrived at a hospital in Stellenbosch, which is one
- 1:22Speaker 1: of the richest towns in South Africa. Tatik, who lived
- 1:25Speaker 1: in the area with his family, had been dealing with
- 1:28Speaker 1: some stomach issues over the last several months, and so
- 1:31Speaker 1: this day he was finally going in to have abdominal
- 1:33Speaker 1: surgery to hopefully alleviate those issues. So after entering the building,
- 1:38Speaker 1: Tatk was checked in and then before long he was
- 1:41Speaker 1: transferred to the operating room where surgeons got to work
- 1:43Speaker 1: on him. After the surgery was over, Tatk was transferred
- 1:47Speaker 1: to a recovery room in the hospital, where he was
- 1:49Speaker 1: scheduled to stay for at least a couple of days
- 1:52Speaker 1: so the doctors and nurses could watch over him while
- 1:54Speaker 1: he recovered and make sure there was no complications from
- 1:57Speaker 1: the procedure. And so on the afternoon of October fourth,
- 2:00Speaker 1: to Tk just kind of lounged around inside of.
- 2:03Speaker 2: His recovery room.
- 2:04Speaker 1: He couldn't really do anything because of the incisions on
- 2:07Speaker 1: his stomach, and so he mostly just laid in his bed,
- 2:09Speaker 1: He watched TV, he relaxed, he ate, and then at
- 2:12Speaker 1: some point some of his family members came into the
- 2:14Speaker 1: hospital and they visited with him as well.
- 2:16Speaker 2: By the end of that day.
- 2:17Speaker 1: The day of his surgery, to TK was definitely sore
- 2:20Speaker 1: from the incisions, but overall he was in good spirits
- 2:24Speaker 1: and to the medical staff it seemed very likely that
- 2:27Speaker 1: his surgery was a success. Early the next morning, at
- 2:30Speaker 1: around five point fifteen am, one of the nurses in
- 2:33Speaker 1: the hospital went to to Tk's room to check on him,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and when she went inside, t TK was awake, he
- 2:38Speaker 1: was alert, he seemed totally normal, and so after a
- 2:41Speaker 1: brief conversation, the nurse told t TK that she was
- 2:44Speaker 1: just going to get him some fresh linens to make
- 2:46Speaker 1: up his bed, and so TTK nodded a thank you
- 2:49Speaker 1: to her, and then the nurse she turned away from
- 2:51Speaker 1: t TK, who's in his bed. She stepped out of
- 2:54Speaker 1: the one door in the room into the hallway, she
- 2:57Speaker 1: grabbed fresh linens off of a cart, and then she
- 3:00Speaker 1: turned back around and went back into Tatk's room. Except
- 3:04Speaker 1: now TATK was not in his bed, So the nurse
- 3:07Speaker 1: immediately thought, okay, well, then t TK must have gone
- 3:09Speaker 1: into his bathroom because the door was shut.
- 3:11Speaker 2: He must be in the bathroom, and so just kind
- 3:13Speaker 2: of reflexively, the nurse walked over to.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Tatk's now empty bed and replaced the linens, and then
- 3:19Speaker 1: when she was done, she just looked at the bathroom
- 3:21Speaker 1: door inside of his room, expecting to Tk to come.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Outside any minute.
- 3:25Speaker 1: But after a couple of minutes passed and Tatk had
- 3:28Speaker 1: still not come out of the bathroom, the nurse decided
- 3:31Speaker 1: to go over and just knock, and so she walked over.
- 3:33Speaker 2: She knocked on the bathroom door and just kind of
- 3:35Speaker 2: called out, hey, there is everything okay in there, but
- 3:37Speaker 2: there was.
- 3:37Speaker 1: No answer, and so the nurse eventually just tried the handle,
- 3:40Speaker 1: and when she saw it was open, she called out
- 3:43Speaker 1: that she was coming inside.
- 3:44Speaker 2: She opened up the bathroom door and it was empty,
- 3:47Speaker 2: and so.
- 3:47Speaker 1: The nurse she whipped her head around and looked back
- 3:49Speaker 1: out at the room where Tatk should have been, and
- 3:52Speaker 1: she saw, you know, he's not on the bed, he's
- 3:53Speaker 1: not under the bed, he's not anywhere in this room.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Where could he have possibly gone? And she's thinking to herself,
- 3:58Speaker 1: the only door out of this room is into the hallway,
- 4:02Speaker 1: the same door that she had used to go out
- 4:04Speaker 1: and get the linens. And if somehow Tatik had ran
- 4:08Speaker 1: out of that door in a few seconds that her
- 4:11Speaker 1: back was turned from to TK. She certainly would have
- 4:14Speaker 1: heard him or seen him, because again she was right
- 4:17Speaker 1: outside the door and only outside of his room for
- 4:19Speaker 1: a couple of seconds. Not to mention the fact Tatik
- 4:22Speaker 1: has major incisions on his stomach and could barely stand,
- 4:26Speaker 1: let alone walk or run, and so totally baffled, this
- 4:29Speaker 1: nurse ultimately left the room and.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Went and told her superiors, thank you to betterhelp for
- 4:40Speaker 2: sponsoring today's video.
- 4:41Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, I left the military, and pretty much
- 4:45Speaker 1: right away I fell apart. The military had provided a
- 4:48Speaker 1: lot of structure in my life, and so suddenly not
- 4:50Speaker 1: having that structure made me feel like I was lost.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Pretty soon, I began resenting all the people around me,
- 4:56Speaker 1: just because they seemed happy and I wasn't. I sort
- 4:58Speaker 1: of figured that these feelings of resentment and unhappiness would
- 5:02Speaker 1: just kind of go away on their own, but they didn't. Eventually,
- 5:05Speaker 1: with some encouragement from my family and my friends, I
- 5:08Speaker 1: sought out a therapist, and quickly my therapist diagnosed me
- 5:12Speaker 1: with depression.
- 5:13Speaker 2: Something I really did not think I was.
- 5:15Speaker 1: But after the shock of the diagnosis had worn off,
- 5:18Speaker 1: me and my therapist were able to kind of go
- 5:20Speaker 1: back in my life and figure out what was causing
- 5:23Speaker 1: me to feel the way I was feeling, and before
- 5:25Speaker 1: long having that perspective really made me feel a lot better.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Look therapy is not for everyone, but it is a
- 5:31Speaker 1: great starting point for people who just kind of feel
- 5:34Speaker 1: lost and don't really know where to go.
- 5:36Speaker 2: And so if that's.
- 5:37Speaker 1: You, I would highly suggest you give better Help a try.

- 6:10Speaker 1: This hospital would immediately begin looking for to TK on
- 6:14Speaker 1: the grounds of the hospital, but they would do it
- 6:17Speaker 1: kind of quietly. They wouldn't call to Tk's family to
- 6:20Speaker 1: tell them that hey, we can't find him, nor would
- 6:22Speaker 1: they call police, and some have speculated that either one
- 6:25Speaker 1: the hospital did not think this was an emergency and
- 6:28Speaker 1: they would quickly find to Tk and that everything would
- 6:31Speaker 1: be fine. Or two, the hospital was just so embarrassed
- 6:34Speaker 1: at the idea that they lost a patient. They didn't
- 6:37Speaker 1: want anyone to know, and so that's why they didn't
- 6:39Speaker 1: tell anyone. Regardless, the hospital would search for Tatk all
- 6:43Speaker 1: day on the fifth, the day he went missing, and
- 6:45Speaker 1: they wouldn't find him. And then the next day, the sixth,
- 6:48Speaker 1: the hospital again would spend the entire day quietly searching
- 6:52Speaker 1: everywhere in the hospital, but they wouldn't find him again.
- 6:55Speaker 1: And so finally on the next day, the seventh, so
- 6:58Speaker 1: forty eight hours after to Ti had just kind of
- 7:01Speaker 1: vanished inside of his room, the hospital would reach out
- 7:04Speaker 1: to Tatk's family and they would say to.
- 7:06Speaker 2: Them, Hey, is t TK.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Home with you guys, And the family was like, no,
- 7:10Speaker 1: he's supposed to be with you, and so the hospital
- 7:13Speaker 1: would say, well, you know, he left two days ago,
- 7:16Speaker 1: so we don't know where he is. And so Tatik's
- 7:18Speaker 1: family is horrified, not only that they were totally left
- 7:21Speaker 1: in the dark, but they would find out over the
- 7:24Speaker 1: course of this conversation that the hospital had not even
- 7:27Speaker 1: contacted the police yet, and so the family, they reached
- 7:30Speaker 1: out to the police and then later that day the
- 7:33Speaker 1: family would meet the police at the Stellenbosch hospital and
- 7:36Speaker 1: then a very public search of the property would ensue
- 7:39Speaker 1: to look for to Tk. However, again no one could
- 7:43Speaker 1: find him. Authorities would continue to search both the hospital
- 7:47Speaker 1: and also the neighboring area outside of the hospital over
- 7:50Speaker 1: the next couple of days, but after they continued to
- 7:53Speaker 1: find absolutely nothing, the search began to wind down, and
- 7:57Speaker 1: so Tatk's devastated family was left with absolutely no idea
- 8:01Speaker 1: what to think or what to do. Fast forward to
- 8:04Speaker 1: October twentieth, so fifteen days after Tatik had gone missing,
- 8:08Speaker 1: and on this day, the twentieth, there was a construction
- 8:11Speaker 1: crew at this hospital in Stellenbosch doing some renovations, and
- 8:15Speaker 1: at some point on this day, one of the workers
- 8:17Speaker 1: had to climb into the ceiling of one.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Of the floors of this hospital.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Now, the space above the ceiling is this tight cramp space,
- 8:25Speaker 1: almost like an attic.
- 8:26Speaker 2: It's very big and wide.
- 8:28Speaker 1: It's like the whole length of that floor, and really
- 8:30Speaker 1: the only people that would ever go into the ceiling
- 8:34Speaker 1: are construction workers or other authorized personnel that needed to
- 8:37Speaker 1: do work. It's not a place that the public would
- 8:39Speaker 1: ever go into. But when one of these workers went
- 8:43Speaker 1: up into the ceiling, he had a headlamp on and
- 8:45Speaker 1: he's kind of looking around, he's looking for what he
- 8:47Speaker 1: needs to do up there, and at some point he
- 8:49Speaker 1: turns his head and his light illuminates a person sitting
- 8:53Speaker 1: in the corner, far away from him, way up against
- 8:56Speaker 1: the side, in this tiny little attic space, and it
- 8:59Speaker 1: would turn out, well, it was Tatik and he was deceased.
- 9:02Speaker 1: The hospital had absolutely no clue how Tatik could have
- 9:06Speaker 1: gotten up there. Not only is it obviously not a
- 9:09Speaker 1: publicly accessible area, but the actual way to get up
- 9:13Speaker 1: into the ceiling, the door that leads up into the ceiling, is.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Very difficult to find.
- 9:18Speaker 1: And even if Tatik found this entrance into the ceiling,
- 9:22Speaker 1: it would have been nearly impossible for him to actually
- 9:25Speaker 1: get into the ceiling because again, this guy has serious
- 9:29Speaker 1: incisions on his stomach from the surgery he got. He
- 9:32Speaker 1: could barely sit up, he couldn't really walk, so the
- 9:35Speaker 1: idea of him climbing and pulling himself up into the
- 9:38Speaker 1: ceiling just seems impossible. Then there was the very strange
- 9:42Speaker 1: autopsy results. Now, the full report has not been made public,
- 9:46Speaker 1: but Tatik's family had a consultation with the hospital after
- 9:50Speaker 1: the autopsy was complete, and they would go to reporters and.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Talk about what the hospital told them.
- 9:56Speaker 1: And apparently the hospital told the family that Tatik did
- 9:59Speaker 1: not die from complications from his surgery, and they heavily
- 10:03Speaker 1: insinuated that Tatik did not die from natural causes. Something
- 10:09Speaker 1: happened to him and the hospital had no idea what
- 10:11Speaker 1: this something was and that's what killed him. And the
- 10:14Speaker 1: hospital also told the family that Tatik likely was dead
- 10:19Speaker 1: before he went up into the ceiling, meaning someone or
- 10:22Speaker 1: something killed Tatik and then someone or something placed.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Him in the ceiling.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Again, this is just from the family going to reporters
- 10:31Speaker 1: and talking about their discussion with the hospital. The hospital's
- 10:35Speaker 1: only official statement has basically been that they have cooperated
- 10:38Speaker 1: with the family and they don't really know what happened
- 10:40Speaker 1: to Tatik. Now, of course, this is a very strange story,
- 10:44Speaker 1: but it gets even weirder.
- 10:46Speaker 2: On May tenth, twenty nineteen, so.
- 10:48Speaker 1: About a year and a half after Tatik was found
- 10:51Speaker 1: deceased in the Stellenbosch hospital, ceiling. A fifty three year
- 10:54Speaker 1: old father of four named Sandel Sabella arrived at another
- 10:58Speaker 1: hospital in South Africa. It was in a city called Durban,
- 11:02Speaker 1: which is considered to be one of the nicest and
- 11:03Speaker 1: wealthiest places in South Africa. Similar to Stellenbosch. Sandeel was
- 11:08Speaker 1: a builder and he had been working on a house
- 11:11Speaker 1: when he had fallen and broken his leg.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Specifically, he broke his.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Femur bone, the bone that runs from your hip down
- 11:18Speaker 1: to your knee, the big single bone in your thigh.
- 11:20Speaker 2: So just for reference, if you break your femur, you
- 11:23Speaker 2: can't walk.
- 11:24Speaker 1: So with some assistance from friends and family, Sandel hobbled
- 11:28Speaker 1: his way into this hospital in Durban and he began
- 11:30Speaker 1: to receive care. Two days later, on May seventeenth, Sandel
- 11:34Speaker 1: was still in the hospital, still recovering from this broken femur, when.
- 11:38Speaker 2: His cousin came to visit him.
- 11:39Speaker 1: The cousin said Sandal seemed totally normal and that during
- 11:43Speaker 1: this visit, Sandel told the cousin that after the cousin left,
- 11:47Speaker 1: Sandel was going to be transported from this hospital to
- 11:51Speaker 1: another hospital nearby, where he was going to get an
- 11:54Speaker 1: X ray of his leg as well as talked to
- 11:56Speaker 1: another orthopedic surgeon. But apparently after this cousin led left
- 12:00Speaker 1: from this visit, the doctors at the Durban hospital walked
- 12:04Speaker 1: into Sandel's room to take him and transport him to
- 12:07Speaker 1: this other hospital, and Sandel was not in his room. Now,
- 12:11Speaker 1: this hospital in Durban was known for their very tight
- 12:15Speaker 1: security and so right away their reaction was very different
- 12:18Speaker 1: than the Stellenbosch hospital's reaction. This hospital immediately contacted authorities
- 12:23Speaker 1: and said, we are missing a patient, and they began
- 12:25Speaker 1: a very public search of their hospital for Sandeel, but
- 12:29Speaker 1: they couldn't find him. On May eighteenth, so six days
- 12:33Speaker 1: after Sandel disappeared, the hospital in Durban began to smell
- 12:36Speaker 1: this horrible stench coming from one wing of their hospital,
- 12:40Speaker 1: and so hospital workers would track the stench to a
- 12:43Speaker 1: janitor's closet and when they opened it up, they saw
- 12:46Speaker 1: this black liquid dripping out of the ceiling, and the
- 12:49Speaker 1: liquid was coming from Sandel's decomposing body that was located
- 12:54Speaker 1: in the ceiling. Sandel's autopsy would be carried out very quickly. However,
- 12:58Speaker 1: the results of that autopsy have never been made public,
- 13:01Speaker 1: and Sandil's family has not commented on the results of
- 13:04Speaker 1: this autopsy. As of today, all we know is that
- 13:07Speaker 1: within a two year period, two seemingly ordinary South African
- 13:12Speaker 1: men who both could either not walk at all or
- 13:14Speaker 1: who could barely walk because of their physical injuries, somehow
- 13:18Speaker 1: snuck out of their hospital rooms totally undetected by staff,
- 13:22Speaker 1: and then wound up dead in the hospital's ceiling. Some
- 13:25Speaker 1: say the men really did somehow sneak out of their
- 13:29Speaker 1: own accord and decided to go into the ceiling, and
- 13:32Speaker 1: that's what happened. Others say both men were murdered and
- 13:35Speaker 1: then placed into the ceiling. And still others think these
- 13:39Speaker 1: two cases are the best examples of something called spontaneous teleportation,
- 13:45Speaker 1: which is the hypothetical phenomenon where a human suddenly disappears
- 13:49Speaker 1: and then almost instantaneously reappears in another location. But for now,
- 13:54Speaker 1: there is no official explanation, so those are all just.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Theories, and so it's up to you to what you believe.
- 14:05Speaker 2: So that's going to do it.
