3 SCARY sounds to give you NIGHTMARES! - MrBallen · Crime and Horror

0:00
Speaker 1: One of today's audio clips is used by the United
0:03
Speaker 1: States Navy to simulate torture for Navy Seal trainees. But
0:07
Speaker 1: before I get into today's stories, if you're a fan
0:09
Speaker 1: of these strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format,
0:13
Speaker 1: then you've come to the right channel, because that's all
0:15
Speaker 1: we do, and we upload three, four, even five times
0:18
Speaker 1: every week. So if that's of interest to you, please
0:20
Speaker 1: steal the like button's library card and then take out
0:23
Speaker 1: several hardcover copy table books, but then never return them. Also,
0:27
Speaker 1: please subscribe to this channel and turn on all notifications
0:30
Speaker 1: so you don't miss any of our weekly uploads.
0:32
Speaker 2: All right, let's get into today's stories.
0:51
Speaker 1: Amongst all the special operations units in the entire world,
0:55
Speaker 1: there are a handful of units that are better than
0:58
Speaker 1: everybody else.
1:00
Speaker 2: Of them is the United States Navy Seals.
1:02
Speaker 1: Now I'm a little bit biased because I was a
1:04
Speaker 1: Navy Seal from twenty twelve to twenty seventeen, but just
1:09
Speaker 1: objectively speaking, the amount of money that the United States
1:12
Speaker 1: Navy invests into creating one Navy Seal is approximately one
1:17
Speaker 1: million dollars. Now, think about that from a military standpoint.
1:21
Speaker 1: The military is like the ultimate bureaucracy where it's all
1:24
Speaker 1: about kind of mass producing solutions, But with the Navy
1:27
Speaker 1: Seal teams, it's kind of like the opposite, where this
1:30
Speaker 1: big bureaucracy is spending all this money and time to
1:33
Speaker 1: identify individuals that on their own merits, are going to
1:37
Speaker 1: be the solution. And in order to be identified as
1:39
Speaker 1: one of those individuals, you need to go through arguably
1:42
Speaker 1: one of the most difficult military selection programs in the
1:45
Speaker 1: entire world. And if you make it to the very
1:48
Speaker 1: end of the year and a half to two year
1:50
Speaker 1: long process of becoming a Navy Seal, one of the
1:53
Speaker 1: last things you have to do before you can actually
1:56
Speaker 1: put a trident on your chest and be a Navy
1:58
Speaker 1: Seal is go through a core called SEER school. SEER
2:01
Speaker 1: stands for Survival, Evasion, resistance, and escape. They're going to
2:05
Speaker 1: teach you how to handle being captured by the enemy
2:08
Speaker 1: and more specifically, being tortured by the enemy. Much of
2:12
Speaker 1: Seer school is done in the classroom, but the famous
2:16
Speaker 1: part of Seer school is done in the field. Now,
2:18
Speaker 1: before I get into anything to do with the field exercise,
2:21
Speaker 1: just know that I can't really talk in detail about
2:24
Speaker 1: it because a lot of it is actually sensitive information.
2:26
Speaker 1: So I'm going to be speaking in generalities about the course,
2:29
Speaker 1: but you'll get the gist and you will appreciate the
2:32
Speaker 1: audio recording. After you finish the classroom portion of Seer School,
2:36
Speaker 1: you move on to the kind of final training exercise
2:39
Speaker 1: or field exercise, and that's where they simulate you being
2:43
Speaker 1: behind enemy lines and getting captured, and you need to
2:46
Speaker 1: basically show your instructors that you don't just crumble, that
2:50
Speaker 1: you actually can handle the stress and the pressure and
2:53
Speaker 1: the mistreatment. There are segments of the field training exercise
2:57
Speaker 1: where you are put into very stressful position, you're sensory deprived,
3:02
Speaker 1: and you have to listen to a.
3:05
Speaker 2: Particular audio recording. It is the Boots poem.
3:09
Speaker 1: By Rudyard Kipling, and anybody that's been through Navy Seer
3:12
Speaker 1: School knows exactly what that poem sounds like because you
3:17
Speaker 1: listen to it over and over and over and over
3:22
Speaker 1: and over. It is maddening. I mean maddening. I put
3:26
Speaker 1: it on for this video and listen to it. I
3:28
Speaker 1: had to turn it off. It's seriously awful, and so
3:31
Speaker 1: just imagine listening to this for.
3:33
Speaker 2: Like, I mean, I don't want to give any times away.
3:36
Speaker 2: But it's an extremely long.
3:37
Speaker 1: Amount of time that you're just listening to this in
3:40
Speaker 1: this tight little space and.
3:41
Speaker 2: You're all cramped up. Is awful, it really is.
3:45
Speaker 1: So here you go have a listen to the official
3:48
Speaker 1: torture song of the Navy Seal Teams.
3:51
Speaker 3: We have Love, Love, Love, Loving over Africa.
3:58
Speaker 4: Oh fine day because of the company, But night springs
4:04
Speaker 4: long strings.
4:05
Speaker 3: The forty thousand million boots boots, boot boots moving up
4:10
Speaker 3: and down again. There's no discharge in the wall.
4:15
Speaker 5: Pride, pride, pride fries to think of something different. Oh
4:21
Speaker 5: night boat, keep me from going down to take boom
4:26
Speaker 5: boom boat boat moving up and down again.
4:31
Speaker 3: The dog charge in the wall. We foot love, Love,
4:39
Speaker 3: Love Flogging over Africa.
4:46
Speaker 1: In twenty thirteen, a Reddit user was having a hard
4:48
Speaker 1: time getting to sleep and then they would wake up
4:51
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night and the sleep was
4:52
Speaker 1: just generally broken, and so they decided they would look
4:55
Speaker 1: into downloading a sleep app. She wound up settling on
4:58
Speaker 1: a particular app called sleep as Android, because not only
5:01
Speaker 1: would it give her a whole bunch of information about
5:04
Speaker 1: her night's sleep, but it also had a constant recording
5:07
Speaker 1: going over the course of the night, and anytime it
5:09
Speaker 1: picked up an anomaly in sound, like snoring or talking
5:13
Speaker 1: in your sleep, it would record it and then clip
5:16
Speaker 1: it and provide it to you the next morning and
5:17
Speaker 1: show you these highlights of your sleeping from the night before.
5:21
Speaker 1: So she downloads the app, and starting on October first,
5:23
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, she begins dutifully turning this thing on before
5:27
Speaker 1: she goes to bed, and then the next day she
5:29
Speaker 1: would get up, she'd review her sleep. She'd read all
5:31
Speaker 1: the graphs, she'd get all the reports, But the thing
5:33
Speaker 1: she wound up being the most interested in was this
5:36
Speaker 1: little timeline of all these instances where she would snore
5:39
Speaker 1: or make a funny sound. And it was just interesting
5:41
Speaker 1: because you don't get to listen to yourself sleep because well,
5:44
Speaker 1: you're sleeping. But starting in November, so a month after
5:47
Speaker 1: downloading it, she started noticing that the app was picking
5:50
Speaker 1: up this strange clicking sound. It didn't have a consistent
5:53
Speaker 1: cadence to it. It almost sounded like someone had drop
5:56
Speaker 1: something on the ground, but it was really difficult to
5:58
Speaker 1: discern it as something's in the room, and so she
6:01
Speaker 1: assumed it had to be like the string on the fan,
6:04
Speaker 1: because some nights her fan was on, some nights it
6:05
Speaker 1: was off, and when it was swinging, maybe it was
6:07
Speaker 1: rattling the fan and the chain was bumping into the
6:10
Speaker 1: side of the frame, or it was just something else
6:12
Speaker 1: in her room.
6:12
Speaker 2: It didn't strike her as a.
6:14
Speaker 1: Very meaningful sound, but she was at least starting to
6:16
Speaker 1: be aware of this sound. Over the next couple of weeks,
6:19
Speaker 1: she heard the sound a couple more times, not while
6:21
Speaker 1: she was sleeping, just the next morning when she would
6:23
Speaker 1: see it on her app, and she actually started trying
6:25
Speaker 1: to recreate the sound by turning on the fan and
6:28
Speaker 1: actually shaking the fan to try to get the string
6:30
Speaker 1: to bounce up against the side and hope that that
6:32
Speaker 1: would be the sound. But despite listening really intently for
6:35
Speaker 1: this sound, she just could not duplicate it and just
6:38
Speaker 1: didn't know where it was coming from. But again she's
6:40
Speaker 1: not concerned. She just a little bit perplexed. Then, on
6:43
Speaker 1: December thirtieth, twenty thirteen, so this is about three months
6:46
Speaker 1: after downloading it, she's had about a month and a
6:49
Speaker 1: half of hearing these clicking sounds. She wakes up and
6:52
Speaker 1: she sees on her app's timeline there's a whole bunch
6:54
Speaker 1: of audio recordings, but there's one particularly loud recording that
6:58
Speaker 1: took place.
6:58
Speaker 2: At two to four am earlier that morning.
7:01
Speaker 1: She loads it up and she starts hearing those clicking
7:03
Speaker 1: sounds that she had grown accustomed to hearing. But then
7:05
Speaker 1: she hears herself sit up in the bed and say,
7:08
Speaker 1: what are you doing? And then there's a pause, and
7:11
Speaker 1: then a male voice says back to her nothing, And
7:15
Speaker 1: then you hear some more clicking, and you hear that
7:18
Speaker 1: same voice say and so right after hearing this recording,
7:22
Speaker 1: the Reddit user is like, oh my god, was someone
7:24
Speaker 1: in my house? And she runs around the house make
7:27
Speaker 1: sure nobody else is there. All the doors are locked,
7:29
Speaker 1: all the windows are locked. There's no sign that anybody
7:33
Speaker 1: was in the house. Nothing's missing, at least nothing she
7:35
Speaker 1: can tell. The reddit user's friend suggested, why don't you
7:38
Speaker 1: post it to Reddit and see if anybody can give
7:40
Speaker 1: you some insight into what this was. Out of the
7:43
Speaker 1: thousands of comments on there that were all over the
7:45
Speaker 1: map for what this could be, there was a speech
7:48
Speaker 1: expert that actually got in touch with the Reddit user
7:51
Speaker 1: and went through the audio with her and then had
7:53
Speaker 1: her send recordings to him as well as her son
7:56
Speaker 1: to try to see if it would be possible for
7:57
Speaker 1: her to make the voice, and the speech expert determined
8:01
Speaker 1: that it would be impossible for her or her son
8:04
Speaker 1: to have made the voice.
8:05
Speaker 2: In the room, meaning someone else was in the room
8:09
Speaker 2: with her in the middle of the night.
8:10
Speaker 1: After this particular night, she never picked up another voice
8:13
Speaker 1: in her room with her, but she did continue to
8:16
Speaker 1: hear that clicking sound that she began to associate with
8:19
Speaker 1: whoever this person was that was in the room with her,
8:21
Speaker 1: and so she and her son ultimately moved.
8:24
Speaker 2: Here is the audio recording.
8:34
Speaker 1: Okay. In the late nineteen forties and nineteen fifties, Reverend
8:53
Speaker 1: Jim Jones was known for his charitable works and his
8:56
Speaker 1: efforts towards desegregating Indiana. This earned him a devoted loyal following,
9:02
Speaker 1: in particular from the African American community. In nineteen fifty six,
9:05
Speaker 1: he purchased a church in Indiana, and he named it
9:08
Speaker 1: the People's Temple, and all of his loyal followers went
9:12
Speaker 1: there and joined his congregation. During his fiery sermons, Jones
9:15
Speaker 1: emphasized helping the poor and lifting up the down trodden,
9:19
Speaker 1: but despite his best efforts, raising money was proving to
9:22
Speaker 1: be a big challenge for him. Jones knew he was
9:24
Speaker 1: an amazing performer and he was really good on stage,
9:27
Speaker 1: and so instead of trying to do all the old
9:29
Speaker 1: school church fundraising techniques, he decided to do something a
9:33
Speaker 1: little more new school that played to his strengths, which
9:36
Speaker 1: was performance. And so what he started doing is advertising
9:40
Speaker 1: that he could perform miracles, live miracles on stage. And specifically,
9:45
Speaker 1: what he said he could do is he could pull
9:47
Speaker 1: cancer out of people. And he had this magic trick
9:50
Speaker 1: where he would go up to somebody that had cancer
9:52
Speaker 1: and he would appear to be pulling on them, and
9:55
Speaker 1: then he would pull out what looked like meat from
9:57
Speaker 1: this person, and it was meat. It was chick meet
10:00
Speaker 1: and he made it seem like he had removed the cancer.
10:03
Speaker 1: And people loved it, and his congregations swelled immediately and
10:07
Speaker 1: money was pouring in. And it was around this time
10:10
Speaker 1: that Jones began to realize the power of his own influence.
10:14
Speaker 2: He could make his followers believe anything he wanted.
10:16
Speaker 1: This power trip, though, over time, would cause Jones to
10:19
Speaker 1: lose his grip on reality, and so when he began
10:22
Speaker 1: espousing fairly radical views, he didn't have anybody that was
10:26
Speaker 1: going to stand up and say, I don't know if
10:28
Speaker 1: you're right about that. Instead, he had a mass of
10:31
Speaker 1: people that basically blindly agreed with him. But when his
10:34
Speaker 1: social goals became so radical that they attracted Marxist leaders
10:39
Speaker 1: and violent leftist groups to the People's Temple, it was
10:42
Speaker 1: the one time that his followers said Okay, enough is enough,
10:46
Speaker 1: and there.
10:46
Speaker 2: Was a mass defection out of the People's Temple.
10:49
Speaker 1: And some of these defectors when they left and had
10:51
Speaker 1: a chance to kind of look at the People's Temple
10:53
Speaker 1: for what it was, they realized it was more like
10:56
Speaker 1: a cult, and that they had been brainwashed and that
10:59
Speaker 1: Jim Jones Jones was a lunatic.
11:01
Speaker 2: And anybody who followed him could potentially be in danger.
11:04
Speaker 1: And so they went to the media and told them
11:06
Speaker 1: about this. The media converges on the People's Temple and
11:09
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it's this huge scandal that Jim
11:12
Speaker 1: Jones is the leader of a cult. And as stories
11:14
Speaker 1: started to break about Jim Jones being this awful person
11:17
Speaker 1: who was stealing from his members and abusing them and
11:20
Speaker 1: brainwashing them, he up and leaves for South America with
11:24
Speaker 1: hundreds of his most loyal followers and they resettle in
11:27
Speaker 1: an area called Guyana that would eventually be called Jonestown.
11:31
Speaker 2: Life on the Jonestown compound was very grim.
11:34
Speaker 1: Not only did they have ten hour workdays every day
11:37
Speaker 1: of the week, but food and water were extremely limited
11:40
Speaker 1: because they were so cut off from modern society that
11:44
Speaker 1: the only way they could get any sort of resources
11:47
Speaker 1: was through haggling over a short wave radio that usually
11:50
Speaker 1: didn't even work, so they're totally cut off. They had
11:52
Speaker 1: very few supplies, and then at the end of their
11:55
Speaker 1: ten hour workday, it was mandatory for all members to
11:58
Speaker 1: come into this main area under meet this big scaffolding
12:01
Speaker 1: where Jim Jones would get up on stage and he
12:03
Speaker 1: would rant and rave about various government conspiracies that were
12:07
Speaker 1: going to befall them. He would excoriate defectors and talk
12:10
Speaker 1: about how they needed to round them up and make
12:12
Speaker 1: examples of them. And if you stepped out of line
12:15
Speaker 1: even just a little bit, you could find yourself locked
12:18
Speaker 1: inside of a coffin or trapped at the bottom of
12:21
Speaker 1: a well as a form of punishment. Jones was already
12:24
Speaker 1: spiraling out of control, but some health issues led him
12:27
Speaker 1: to take a daily near lethal dose of amphetamines and
12:31
Speaker 1: sedatives that made him a total lunatic. Suddenly, his nighttime
12:35
Speaker 1: speeches just weren't enough, and he began pumping these crazy
12:39
Speaker 1: speeches twenty four to seven over loud speakers all over
12:42
Speaker 1: the camp. One defector said the speeches were centered on
12:44
Speaker 1: this idea that back in the United States, the government
12:48
Speaker 1: was systematically rounding up African Americans and sending them to
12:51
Speaker 1: concentration camps, and it was only a matter of time
12:54
Speaker 1: before they came here and took any of the African
12:57
Speaker 1: Americans here into captivity. And since the majority of the
13:00
Speaker 1: People's Temple were of African American descent, this was terrifying.
13:04
Speaker 1: US Congressman Leo Ryan had been keeping close tabs on
13:07
Speaker 1: the People's Temple ever since the news broke about Jim
13:10
Speaker 1: Jones kind of being a hack and a maniac, and
13:12
Speaker 1: when they went to South America, he just felt like,
13:16
Speaker 1: no one's really checking in on them, and I'm concerned
13:18
Speaker 1: for the well being of the people that are there,
13:20
Speaker 1: And so on November eighteenth, nineteen seventy eight, Ryan, along
13:23
Speaker 1: with eighteen other people, flew to Guyana to talk to
13:26
Speaker 1: Jim Jones and to make sure that everything was okay.
13:29
Speaker 1: When he arrived, he was expecting it to be kind
13:31
Speaker 1: of in disrepair and be this chaotic scene, but it wasn't.
13:34
Speaker 1: The camp was maintained, people were well dressed, polite. It
13:37
Speaker 1: seemed like a happy and healthy community with a few
13:40
Speaker 1: hundred people there. And he actually went to Jim Jones
13:43
Speaker 1: and says, you know, it looks like he got a
13:44
Speaker 1: good thing going here. But Jones, in his totally delusional state,
13:48
Speaker 1: believed Ryan was being sent by the US government to
13:51
Speaker 1: round up the members and to shift them into concentration camps.
13:54
Speaker 1: And so as soon as the congressman left the camp
13:57
Speaker 1: and was headed back to the airport, Jones sent a
14:00
Speaker 1: security team after them, and they shot and killed Leo.
14:03
Speaker 2: Ryan along with four others.
14:06
Speaker 1: While that massacre is going on, Jones goes over to
14:08
Speaker 1: the middle of the camp where he normally gives his
14:10
Speaker 1: nighttime speeches, and he calls all nine hundred plus members
14:14
Speaker 1: to the middle of the camp to listen to him.
14:16
Speaker 1: He turns on a recording device, he picks up his microphone,
14:19
Speaker 1: and he delivers a speech that would come to be
14:21
Speaker 1: known as the Death Tape. His famous first line of
14:24
Speaker 1: this speech is I've tried my best to give you
14:27
Speaker 1: a good life. And you can hear the crowd erupt
14:30
Speaker 1: with cheers as he says this. And what listeners of
14:32
Speaker 1: this tape can't see is what's being unveiled at the
14:36
Speaker 1: same time. Right next to Jim Jones is the silver
14:39
Speaker 1: cauldron of the sickly Purple Liquid, and next to it
14:42
Speaker 1: are about nine hundred cups. The next day, authorities are
14:45
Speaker 1: outside the gate of Jonestown and they're getting ready to
14:49
Speaker 1: head into Jonestown to confront Jim Jones about his connection
14:52
Speaker 1: to the murder of Congressman Ryan and the four others,
14:55
Speaker 1: and they're loading their guns. They're getting ready for what's
14:58
Speaker 1: bound to be massive resistance from this crazy cult leader
15:01
Speaker 1: and his followers. And as they're making their way down
15:03
Speaker 1: their road and the camp comes into view, they notice
15:06
Speaker 1: that it's eerily quiet and they don't see anybody moving around.
15:10
Speaker 2: And as they're walking through.
15:11
Speaker 1: Some of the high grass, someone trips and falls and
15:13
Speaker 1: they think they've stepped on a log. When they stand
15:16
Speaker 1: up and look down, they notice that it's a dead
15:18
Speaker 1: person and they scream out. And then everyone's looking around
15:21
Speaker 1: and they notice that all over the ground in front
15:24
Speaker 1: of them are hundreds and hundreds of dead bodies. There's
15:27
Speaker 1: more bodies than they can possibly count. The previous night,
15:30
Speaker 1: that purple liquid that was revealed to the crowd after
15:33
Speaker 1: Jim Jones begins his speech was kool aid mixed with cyanide,
15:37
Speaker 1: and over the course of several hours, and it's all
15:39
Speaker 1: recorded on the depth tape, he encourages his members to
15:42
Speaker 1: come up and die with dignity and drink the kool aid. However,
15:46
Speaker 1: if you didn't drink the kool aid, or didn't want
15:48
Speaker 1: to drink the kool aid, like many of the three
15:50
Speaker 1: hundred children, their parents would make them or the armed
15:54
Speaker 1: guards would come over and they would inject them with it.
15:56
Speaker 1: And after everybody's died, Jim Jones doesn't even drink from
15:59
Speaker 1: the cool Lady ends up shooting himself. I've decided to
16:02
Speaker 1: only include a very small portion of the death tape
16:04
Speaker 1: because so much of it is just it's heartbreaking, it's distressing,
16:09
Speaker 1: and it should be something that you decide you want
16:11
Speaker 1: to listen to.
16:12
Speaker 2: It should not be thrust upon.
16:13
Speaker 4: You, how very much I've tried my best to give
16:17
Speaker 4: you a good life. It was dead by the greatest
16:29
Speaker 4: prophets from time immemorial. No man takes my life for me.
16:35
Speaker 4: I lay my life down. If we can't live in peace,
16:40
Speaker 4: then let's die in peace.
16:47
Speaker 6: And been as so betrayed, may have been so terribly betrayed,
16:53
Speaker 6: takes a portion like they used to take in ancient
16:55
Speaker 6: Greece and step over quietly, as we are not committing suicide.
17:02
Speaker 6: It's a revolutionary act.
17:04
Speaker 2: We can't go back.
17:05
Speaker 6: They won't leave us alone.
17:08
