  Speaker 1: Today, we're going to learn about a little boy in
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: India who for a time seemed like he was the
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: worst behaved kid on the planet. But the truth was
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: that little boy had a huge secret and when his
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: secret got out, it changed everything anyone thought they knew
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: about this boy, and it prompted all these big time
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: college professors from major universities all around the world to
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: personally fly to India to investigate this kid's claims because
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the implications of what he was saying were massive. But

• 0:56
  Speaker 1: let's get into today's story. Late one afternoon in December
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: of nineteen eighty six, a woman named Shanti Singh was
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: sitting on her bed cradling her toddler son, whose name
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: was Titu. As he threw a huge temper tantrum. Titu,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: who was three years old, had already been throwing this
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: tantrum for about thirty minutes at this point, and it
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: didn't seem like anything Shanti did was getting him to
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: calm down. In fact, honestly, it just seemed like Titu
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: was getting worse and worse by the second. And Shanti
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: knew her son's constant wailing must be annoying her neighbors
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: in the little rural village in northern India where they lived.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: But again, Shanti just felt like, really, there was nothing
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: she could do. After all, this was not a typical
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: toddler tantrum. Titu was not throwing this tantrum because he
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: lost a toy or was fighting with his siblings or something. No,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the reality was Shanti and her husband had no eye
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: idea why Tea too was throwing this tantrum Because Titu
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: threw these tantrums all the time for seemingly no reason,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: and nothing they did would get him to stop. He
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: would just start throwing these crazy fits and he would
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: only stop when he was ready. Now, Shanti and her
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: husband had taken Teitu to the local doctor and he'd
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: been examined, and the doctor said, look, I think your
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: son's just fine. I can't find anything wrong with him.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: So whatever's causing him to be so upset, it's got
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: to be psychological. Shanti grabbed her son and tried to
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: give him a hug and kiss to get him to
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: calm down. But as she did that, you know, Teitu
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: turned around and tried to hit her in the face
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and kicked her and punched her, and so Shanti had
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: to kind of fall back on the bed and Tito,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: at this point, was still throwing this huge tantrum. He
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: leapt off the bed and ran out of the room.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Now Shanti had already sent the rest of her family,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: her kids, her husband outside to wait out this current
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Teto tantrum, and so for a second, Shanti thought about
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: just laying on the bed and letting her crazy toddler
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: just kind of run around the house until he was
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: done throwing this tantrum. But as Shanti was laying there
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: on the bed practically crying from frustration, she heard a
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: plate break in the kitchen, and so she jumped up
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: and ran into the kitchen and there was tea Tu
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: looking down at the ground where there was a shattered
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: plate on the ground. Clearly Titu had smashed it on purpose,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: and so as furious as Shanti was, she suddenly realized that,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: you know, nothing she could do was going to get
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: this kid to stop. And so right now the only
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: thing she could do was just put him in a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: safe place where he couldn't hurt other people or himself
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: or damage anything else. And so Shanti, trying to be
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: as calm as possible, walked up to Teitu who's still
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: throwing this tantrum and swinging at her as she's coming
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: near him, and she grabbed him. She turned him around
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: so he couldn't kick her or punch her. She put
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: him into his room and then shut the door, and
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: then she sat down in the hallway with her back
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: up against the door to keep it shut. And then
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: as tea Tu inside the room began banging on the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: door and trying to open it, you know, Shanti's sitting
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: there anchoring the door and she's just praying that her
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: son's gonna calm down soon. And then at some point
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Shanti heard her son start to say something that typically
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: signaled the.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: End of a tantrum.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Tito in the bedroom began saying the word shirsh Verma,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: which actually was a nonsense word that Shanti and her
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: husband and the other kids had no idea what it meant.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: But you know, t Tu at the end of his tantrums,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: he would always just start saying over and over again,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: shirsh Verma, Shirshmrma, shirsh Urma. And so Shanti, she's in
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the hall and she's hearing Tito start to do that,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: and so on the one hand, she's thinking, Okay, you know,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: this tantrum's.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: About to end.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: But on the other she's like, I have no idea
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: what that word means. You know, it's obviously connected in
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: some way to what's going on with my son, but
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I have no idea what it means.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: It sounds like nonsense.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: And so Shanti began yelling through the door at t
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Tu to explain what shirsh Urma meant. But t Tu
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: had no explanation. He just kept saying the word over
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: and over again, shirsh Erma, shirsh Erma, shirsh Urma. Shanti
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and her husband had five other kids. T two was
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the youngest, and T two was not like any of
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: his other siblings. The other siblings did not throw temper
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: tantrums like this, not at all. And in fact, Tea
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Too had been a difficult child even before he was born.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Towards the end of Shanti's pregnancy with t Tu, she'd
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: become very, very sick and in fact had to be
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: hospitalized for the entire last trimester. And then as a
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: newborn baby, Tea Too basically didn't sleep at all and
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: he cried constantly, and so Shanti and her husband initially thought,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: you know, Tea Too must just be a very fussy baby.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: But in time, you know, as he grew into more
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: of a toddler, it was clear to Shanti and her
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: husband that Tito was actually a different kind of kid.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: He seemed like a very unhappy and kind of angry
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: kid who was permanently on the verge of crying or
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: throwing a fit. But it wasn't until Tito began talking
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: at around two years old that Shanti and her husband
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: really started to become worried because the things Tea Too
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: was saying as a two year old were just not
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: in keeping with what you would expect a two year
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: old to say. And I'm not talking about the nonsense
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: word that Tito would use during his temper tantrums, shirsch Burma. Basically,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Tea Too would say things that seemed to indicate that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: he genuinely hated everyone in his family. Now, for context,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Shanti and her family were not poor, but they weren't
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: rich either. They lived in a little concrete home, they
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: didn't have a TV or a car, and all the
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: kids wore hand me down clothes, and Shanti actually handmade
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: her clothes and her husband's clothes. But the family always
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: had enough food to eat, and they were educated, and
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: they seemed happy enough. It's just that they didn't really
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: have the ability to do anything extra, like above and
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: beyond a modest life, and Tito had never known anything different.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: This was his life from the day he was born.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: But when he learned to speak at around two years old,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: it was like all Tea Too wanted to talk about
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: was how crappy of a lifestyle their family lived. For example,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: when Tito's mom, Shanti would put on one of her
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: saries that happened to be ripped a sorry is a
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: traditional garment in India, Teaito would look at what she was
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: wearing and in toddler speak, you know, he would tell
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: her that she looked terrible, and that it looked like
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: she was just wearing rags. Tea two would also walk
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: around their house and he would point to spots in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the house that look dirty and he would demand that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: somebody cleaned it up because he didn't want to live
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: in a dirty house. And then whenever the family needed
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to go somewhere and they would walk there or take
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the bus there, Tito would complain the entire time that
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: he wanted to be in a car and why aren't
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: we driving in a car? Like why are we walking,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: despite the fact that te too basically had never used
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: a car before. But perhaps the strangest aspect of Tito's
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: behavior was around the time he began talking and insulting
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: his family, he also began talking about this very historic
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: city called Agra, which was located about eight miles away
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: from where they lived. Agro was famous for being home
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to the taj Mahal, which is considered to be one
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: of the most beautiful buildings ever made. Agra also has
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a very busy downtown and lots of tourism. But Teito
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: had never been to Agra, and there was no reason
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: he would be drawn to Agra like his family had
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: no connection to that city. But starting around the time
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Tee two began talking looking at two years old, he
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: began asking to go to Agra several times a week,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and when his parents would say no, we're not going
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: to go to Agra, Tea two would throw a huge tantrum.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: And so not long after Tea two had begun speaking
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and saying all these terrible things, Shanti and her husband
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: decided that really all they could do was just wait
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and hope their son grew out of this terrible behavior.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: But t two did not grow out of this. Shortly
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: after his parents decided to just kind of wait it out,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Tea two would randomly attack another small child with a
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: sugarcane and he beat the kid so badly the kid
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: was bleeding at the end of the attack. And then
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: also another time, shortly after the sugarcane beating, Tea two
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: was at the store with his mother and his mom
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: was looking at this bracelet, which she couldn't afford. She
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: was just looking at it through the glass, and Tea
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: too sensed his mom wanted the bracelet, and in an
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: odd show of affection for his mother, he turned to
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the shopkeeper. This little tiny kid who's not even three
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: years old yet and he tells the shopkeeper that if
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: he doesn't give this bracelet to his mother for free,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that t Tu will shoot and kill the shopkeeper. And
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: so after this, Shanty and her husband just stopped taking
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: tea too out in public at all. It was just
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: too embarrassing. But what really just unsettled Shanti the most
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: about her son's behavior was that nonsense word that t
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Tu kept saying at the end of all of his tantrums,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: shirsh Verma, shirsh Verma. And so fast forward to that day,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: after he's broken the plate and now Shanti's put him
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: in his room, Titu began saying that nonsense word, except
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: he was getting a little bit older and his speech
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: was getting a little bit more clear, And so as
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Shanti was laying up against the door, she realized that
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: her son was not saying a single word, shirsh Urma.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: He was saying two words. They were sireesh Verma. But
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Shanti had no idea what that meant. She thought it
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: sounded like a name, but it was the name she
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: had never heard before. But one day, a few months
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: after the dish breaking incident in April of nineteen eighty seven,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: all of Tito's very strange, erratic, terrible behaviors would erupt
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: all at once. That April day started out like any other.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Shanti made breakfast for her family, and then her husband
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: headed out to do some errands, and her six children
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: kind of dispersed around the inside and outside of the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: house to play, study whatever. But Tea too was really grouchy,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and so he stayed inside in the kitchen was Shanti.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: A little while later, Shanti's oldest son came into the
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: kitchen and he asked his mother, Hey, when will dad
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: get back from his trip to Agra. Shanti's husband had
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: gone to Agra to run one of his chores, and
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Agra was the city that Tea two was totally obsessed with.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: And so when Shanti's oldest son said the word Agra,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Tea two, who was sitting in the kitchen, he heard
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: it and kind of looked up like he was totally
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: fixated on their conversation. And then as Shanti and her
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: oldest were talking about the dad, Tea two just got
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: up left the kitchen and he went to his room.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: He grabbed a.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Couple of things, and then he came back into the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: kitchen carrying this bundle of clothes with him, and he
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: walked right past his brother and his mother. He went
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: out the front door and began running down the road
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: without saying a word. Remember, this is like a three
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: year old child. This is not a teenager. This is
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: a little kid. And so Shanti and her oldest son,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: they kind of watched in shock as te Tu ran
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: off down the road, and for a minute, neither.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Of them did anything.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: And then it was like they broke out of their trance,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: and the oldest son just turned and began running out
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: of the house to catch up with Tito. Now, it
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: didn't take long for the oldest to catch up with
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: his young brother, but it was surprisingly hard to stop
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Titu from trying to run away. He fought back as
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: hard as he could to keep his brother from pulling
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: him back to the house. And then when the older
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: brother got Titu back inside, Shanti looked at her older
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: son and she saw he had a black eye from
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: where Titu had just hit him. And when Shanti turned
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to Titu to try to get him to apologize to
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: his brother for hitting him, she saw te Tou was
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: completely inconsolable. He was throwing a huge temper tantrum. He
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: was on the ground, kicking and flailing and screaming at
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: the top of his lungs, and so Shanti and her
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: oldest son knew there was no hope in getting him
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: to calm down. He was deep into one of his talent,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: and so Shanti and the oldest just basically restrained Titu
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: so he couldn't hurt himself or one of them or
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: damage anything. And for a while as they held him
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: to the ground, t Tu just continued to scream and
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: flail and throw this fit. But eventually he did kind
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of calm down, and he began saying soresh Erma, saresh
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Furma over and over again. But then he began talking
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: about something that he really hadn't brought up before that
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: stood out to Shanti and her oldest son, t Tu.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: In addition to saying periodically saresh Erma saresh Furma, also
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: began talking about some radio store in Agra, and t
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Tu kept saying, why didn't Dad bring me to the
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: radio store?
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Why didn't he bring me?
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: And so as Shanti is listening to her son, she
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: suddenly thinks, you know, what, this is my chance. He's
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: being so specific about this radio store. You know, maybe
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: this is my opportunity to lean in and learn what
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: the heck is going on with my kid. And so
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: once Titu fully stopped his temper tantrum, and Shati and
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: her oldest could finally let go of him. Once t
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Tu had left the room, Shanti turned to her oldest
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: son and she told him to go to Agra right now.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Just go there and look for a radio store or something,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: look for anything that could be a clue to what's
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: going on with Titu. He obviously has some fixation with
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: the city. Just go look around see if you can
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: find something. So the oldest son left the house and
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: he went to one of his friend's houses who had
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: a car, and together they drove into Agra. Now Shanti
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: had no idea if her oldest son's trip to Agra
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: would produce anything useful, but she figured, you know, she's
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: got nothing to lose. A few hours later, when Shanti's
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: oldest son returned from Agra, he came into their home
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: with a very serious look in his face, and right
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: away Shanti could tell clearly.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: He's discovered something.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: And so Shanti asked her oldest son, you know, tell
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: me what did you learn what happened in Agra? And
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: the oldest son you know. He looked down for a second,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and then he looked back at his mom and he
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: just said, tomorrow we're going.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: To have visitors.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Are you a fan of the Street, Dark and Mysterious.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: If so, then you're in luck because our massively popular show,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the Mister Ballin Podcast, which since the end of twenty
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: twenty two has been exclusively on the Amazon Music platform,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: is now available on all podcast platforms and it's free.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: There are over two hundred episodes in the back catalog
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: of the show, and of those two hundred, at least
• 14:21

• 15:23
  Speaker 1: The next day, a car pulled up in front of
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Shanti's home and six people climbed out. There was a
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: woman wearing a beautiful red sarry who appeared to be
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: in her thirties, and then there were three other men
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: who also appeared to be in their thirties, and they
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: were all wearing.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Suits and jackets.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: And there was also an older couple, a man and
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: a woman, and the man was wearing this beautiful sweater
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: and the woman had on all this silk. It was
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: clear just from the way they looked that these six
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: people were not from this area. They were from somewhere else,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: and they had a ton of money. Now, Shanti was
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: inside the house and she was watching this group arrive,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: but she did not go outside to greet them. She
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: her husband, and all of her kids, minus te Tu,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: had decided the night before when they knew these visitors
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: were going to arrive, that they wouldn't go out and
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: talk to them. Instead, they would just allow t Tou
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to basically make first contact with.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: These people and see what happens.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: So when Shanti saw this group of six very well
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: off people were standing right outside of their gate kind
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: of waiting to be let in, she called for Titu
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: and said, hey, go outside and open the gate for
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: our guests. And so Titu, who was not throwing a
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: fit at this point, he came running through the house
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: and he went to the door.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: He's not looked outside yet.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: He opens up the door and he runs outside and
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: he sees these six people on the other side of
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the gate. And suddenly Shanti heard Titu make a sound that.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: He never made. It was like the sound.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Of pure joy. He was so elated to see these
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: six people. Shanti couldn't believe it for a second. Shanti
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: closed her eyes and almost started crying because she knew
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: even before Titu had made that joyous sound when he
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: saw these people they were about to say the mystery
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: of what was going on with her son. Just then,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Shanti heard Tea Tu from outside yelling for Shanti and
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the rest of his family to come outside and meet
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: his other family. Shanti went to the door and gestured
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: for the guests to come inside, and then she led
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: them through the house to the back deck. And then
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: after they were all seated, Shanti looked over at her son,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: te Too, and she saw he had this huge grin
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: on his face. He was so happy, and he was
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: staring intently at the woman who got out of the car,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: who was in her thirties and wearing the beautiful red
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: sorry and she was sitting right across the table from
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: t Tu, and Tito is just locked on her. Now
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: at this point, nobody is speaking. Everybody is just sitting there.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: No introductions had been made, so nobody even knows each
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: other's names. And in this kind of tense and awkward silence,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Tea Too, who again is just staring at this woman
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: in red. He eventually breaks the silence the three year
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: old child and he asked the woman in red to
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: come sit next to him. And so the woman in
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: the red sorry she does what he asks and moves
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: over and sits next to the top. And then Tito
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: looked up at her and he smiled, and he said,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: do you know who I am and the woman she's
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: looking down at him, and she said, no, I don't,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: and Tito would look back up at her and he
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: would say, I know who you are. You're Uma. And
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: at this the woman in red, whose name.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Really was Uma, she gasped.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: She had no idea how this kid knew who she was.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: But before she could even.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Say anything, te Too continued and he said to her, hey,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: do you remember when we went to the fair with
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Ranu and Sanu and I bought you those sweets? And
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: at this the woman in the red, sorry, Uma, She
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: had this new look come over her face instead of
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: looking like she was just kind of shocked and appalled
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: that this random kid knew who she was. Now it
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: was like a look of shocked recognition as she's looking
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: down at Tito, like she suddenly understood what was actually
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: going on. And at the same time, Tito's mother, Shanti,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: was watching this happen and she was kind of piecing
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: together what was really going on here, and suddenly she
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: realized she needed to check something, and she got up
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: and she ran out of the room and she came
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: back with scissors, and without saying anything, Shanti went straight
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: to te Too. She pushed his head to the side,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: exposing his right ear, and she used those scissors and
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: began cutting all the hair off his head that was
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: kind of drooped over his right ear, kind of exposing
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: the right side of his skull. And as the hair
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: on Tito's head fell to the ground, exposing more and
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: more of the right side of his head, all the
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: adults watching just gasped, and the whole time Tea Too
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: was just smiling. To understand what just happened out on
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: that back porch between these random people and Shanti in
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: her family, you need some context.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: So here's what happened.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: When Shanti's oldest son was sent to Agra to go
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: investigate and look for clues that could explain what was
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: going on with tATu. The brother and his friend had
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: driven all around Agra, you know, looking for radio stores
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: and looking for things that might in some way kind
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: of connect to Tea Too, and they didn't see anything.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: But at some point they drove past one of the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: many radio stores in Agra, and the name of this
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: radio store immediately stood out to the brother and this friend.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: So the older brother and the friend they'd parked their
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: car and they went into this particular radio shop and
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: inside of there is where they met Uma, the woman
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: who had the red sarion, who was in her thirties.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: That te Tu said, we went to the fair together
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: with that woman. So she's inside this radio shop. And
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: when the older brother asked Uma how this radio shop
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: got its name, that was when things began to fall
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: into place for this older brother.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: About what was going on with Tea too.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Uma would tell the older brother that this radio shop
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: actually belonged to her husband, except three and a half
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: years ago he was murdered. He was shot and killed,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: and so she had been running the shop ever since.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: And Uma said she had considered changing the name of
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the shop, you know, since taking it over, but she
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: just couldn't bring herself to change it because the shop's
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: name was actually based on her husband's name. The name
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: of the shop was siesh Radio Shop. Her husband's name
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: was Sireesh Furma. The two words that Titu would say
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: all the time at the end of his tantrums siesh Urma,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: siesh Urma.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: That was UMA's husband.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: And it would turn out the details of Sireesh's death
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: matched up in a very bizarre way with Titu's birth
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: and all of Titu's totally erratic, strange, terrible behavior throughout
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: really his entire life to this point now suddenly made
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: sense if you knew about Sish's life.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Many people, including.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Professors from major universities in India and America, have come
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: to believe that what happened with t Tu was when
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Sish was murdered, his spirit somehow came out of his
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: body and entered Titu's body. Basically, Siresh was reincarnated in Titu.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: This reincarnation theory would explain why Titu was always saying
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Sireesh Burma because in theory, that was his real name.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: You know, that's the guy who died who then his
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: spirit transitioned to Titu, so he's saying his name over
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: and over again. And then also Tittu's obs session with
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Ogura would make sense because that's where Sireesha's radio shop
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: was and where he lived. Also, the reincarnation theory would
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: explain why Titu was so critical of Shanti and the
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: rest of his family's lifestyle, basically accusing them of being
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: poor and.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Kind of living below his station.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Well, Sireesha's family was very, very wealthy, and so that
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: was the lifestyle Saresh had lived, and so if his
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: spirit was now in Tito's body, he might be at
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: odds with their lifestyle. And lastly, the reincarnation theory would
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: explain the two very unique and very pronounced birthmarks that
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Tito had right next to his right ear. He had
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: one right above his right ear and right below it. Now,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: these were birthmarks that Shanti was well aware of, but
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: after she learned about how Saresh Verma was killed. He
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: was shot in the side of his head and the
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: bullet went in above his right ear and then came
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: out on the bottom part of his right.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Ear right here.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: When she heard that, she ran and got the scissors.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: She cut the hairway around Tito's ear, revealing the two birthmarks.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: And then the other families saw those birthmarks and they're like, oh,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: my goodness, that is literally where the entry and exit
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: wounds were on Siresh. And then also it's worth pointing
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: out that on the day Sireesh was shot and killed, well,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: basically that day was when Tito's mother, Shanti began feeling
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: really sick during her pregnancy with Titu, and she had
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: to be hospitalized. After this discovery about t two and
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: siesh Urma Shanti and her husband and the rest of
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: her family expected Titu to want to live with Uma
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: and his other family, and at first that is.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: What Titu wanted to do.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: But pretty quickly he actually decided that, you know what,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: I want to stay put with the family I was
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: born into, and we can just visit with the other family.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: And so that's what they did.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: You know, Uma and the other wealthy family, they made
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: visits all the time to see Tea two and vice versa.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: You know, the families got along great. And as for Tito,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: you know, he was really happy. You know, his bad
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: behavior basically went away and he became a normal, high
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: functioning kid. And te Too has grown up and become
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: a very happy and successful adult.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: He's got a family of his.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Own and he's currently a professor at a college in India.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: In the very early morning hours of December twenty sixth,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighty, airman Steve Longero was on a foot patrol
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: at the Royal Air Force Base near rendels from Forest
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: in the UK and as Longero walked along, suddenly this
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: alarm sounded across the base, and based on the sound
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: of this alarm, Longero knew this was not a drill,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: and so instinctively he turned and began sprinting towards his
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: assigned firing position, right along the perimeter.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Of the base.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: And as Longero ran towards his position, he looked around
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: him and he saw hundreds of other soldiers doing the
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: exact same thing. But once Longero actually reached his firing
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: position and looked out, you know, looking for the threat
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: that's coming into the base, he realized he.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Didn't see anything.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: But then when he turned to look at his colleagues
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: to ask them, you know, what's going on here, he
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: noticed everybody else was not even looking outside the base.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: We're kind of looking off to the side towards Rendalsham
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Forest because there was something out there, kind of hovering
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: in the trees that was casting this very eerie red
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: light over everything. And this was just the beginning of
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: what would go on to be one of the most
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: credible and unsettling paranormal events in history.
