Special Forces ATTACKED by unidentified creature The Kandahar Giant · Crime and Horror

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: After three years of intense military training, I had become
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a Navy Seal, joined my first seal team, which was
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Steal Team two in Virginia, and I had joined my platoon,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: my twenty five man platoon. We had gone through all
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: this additional training at the team to prepare for deployment.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: And here I was, three years to the day, almost
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: exactly from when I went to boot camp, getting ready
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: to deploy as a Navy seal to Afghanistan. But none
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: of that training would prepare me for how intense my
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: first couple of weeks in Afghanistan would be. So the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: flight to Afghanistan is pretty routine until you enter Afghanistan airspace.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: When your pilots let you know, hey, you've entered Afghanistan airspace.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: They turned the lights to red in the inside of
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: the plane and they get ready to descend very rapidly
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: into the base where we would be landing. You know,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: we can't afford to be in the air for any
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: longer than.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: We have to be because there's a risk of getting shot.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: So there's a super steep decent and then they tell
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: you to stay away from the windows, right, so you're
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: avoiding the windows in case you get shot at, and
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I remember thinking like, wow, like this is really it.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: We're here, We're in a war zone, Like we're.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Nose diving into bases to avoid getting shot at, Like
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: it was intense, and I'm in my twenties, like it
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: was just kind of cool.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Then the ramp opened, the back of.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: The plane opened, and we all got out, and we're
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: inside of this very well fortified base.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: You know, we're safe in here.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: And immediately I was struck by the just stunning beauty
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: of the landscape. And I remember looking out at all
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: these snow covered mountains and I remember thinking like, how
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: is this a war zone? This is one of the
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: most beautiful places I've ever seen. I don't think I
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: really appreciated just how foreign of a place Afghanistan is
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: relative to where I come from.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: We get out to our site and that night.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: They wanted to go they being the team that we
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: were relieving, they wanted us to go on in operation.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: We were going to be up in the mountains, and
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I remember distinctly them talking about the cave systems that
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: were in these mountains, and I remember thinking like how
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: creepy that was that we would be up on these
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: mountains walking around.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: It's so isolated, it's.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: So foreign, and there could be like people hiding in
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: caves that we could accidentally fall into one of their caves.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Like it just it really really creeped me out.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: And so I was talking about how creepy these caves were,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and the interpreter was like, you know what's really creepy
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: is Back in two thousand and two, there was this
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: fairly well documented case of another special operations unit, the
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Army Green Berets, coming in contact with a creature in
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: a cave and they actually got into a battle with it,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and they lost one of their soldiers to this creature,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and it was fairly well documented, but then it was
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: quickly kind of silenced. I mean, certainly the story was interesting,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: but I didn't really believe it. Maybe it was some animal,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: maybe it was some person. Whatever it was, there was
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: some explanation to it. It wasn't until now that I
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: actually started exploring different strange occurrences and strange events, and
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I looked and found some testimony from one of the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: soldiers that came forward anonymously who was a part of
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: this operation where they came in contact with this creature
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: in Kandahar, and what struck me about his testimony is
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: it sounds authentic. So what I'm gonna do is I'm
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: going to tell that soldier's story and I'm going to
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: tell the other kind of corroborating witness stories as well,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to try to give you a picture of what happened
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: in Kandahar in two thousand and two. And you can
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: be the judge if you think this is fact or fiction.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: But before we get into today's story, if you're a
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: fan of the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: then you come to the right place because that's what
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: my channel is all about. And I upload three to
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: four times a week. So if that interest you, I
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: would encourage you to please gently ravage the like button
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and then subscribe to my channel and turn on all
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: post notifications. See you don't miss any of those three
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: to four weekly uploads. All right, guys, let's get into
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the story. In two thousand and two, an Army infantry
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: unit just vanished. They were on patrol role in the
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Kandahar Mountain range in Afghanistan and they stopped using the radios,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: they stopped calling in. No one knew what was going on.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: They didn't call in a TICK, which stands for troops
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: in contact. Basically any military unit. If you're out on
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: an operation and you start getting shot at, you radio
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: in to your higher command, Hey, troops in contact or TICK,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: which signals to them you need to get aircraft on standby,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: you need to get ready to send reinforcements. They need
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to be ready to support you. But they only do
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that if you signal that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: You're in a TICK.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: And it's a lot of people of anything will call
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: it in too early, you know, units are known to
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: call it in almost prematurely sometimes, and so the idea
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that a unit would vanish without calling in a TICK
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: or any sort of communication about any gunfight or any
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: ambush or anything, it's a little bit strange.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: And so they disappear. The army decides that in order.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: To define them, because this is obviously a really big deal,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: they would get their most elite unit, so the Army
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Green Beads, that's their very elite special Forces.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: They would send them out to find this missing unit.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: And so one soldier that was a part of that
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: elite special forces detachment who just goes by mister k
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: he would come forward years later and tell the story
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: of what.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Happened once they were tasked with this mission.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: So they leave via helicopters and they fly out to
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: the Kandahar Mountain range about four clicks so four kilometers
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: about from where they believe was this infantry unit's last
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: known location. And so they land and they start doing
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: this fairly methodical search through the mountain side. They knew
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: that they were in enemy territory and at any time
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: they could get into a gunfight, that could be ambushed.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: There's all these cave systems all over these mountains then,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: so it's slow moving to begin with. Plus they're looking
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: for this lost infantry unit, so it's just a very
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: slow movement to the mountains.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: And so over the first few days, nothing really happened.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: They didn't come in contact with the enemy, they didn't
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: see any sign of this missing infantry unit, and they
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: just walked along the mountains carrying a bunch of gear
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: and that was it. At some point they noticed a
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: little bit farther ahead that there was this distinct pathway
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: leading up the mountain and kind of around the corner,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and it looked like a goat trail, and there are
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: lots of goats that would run around the mountain side,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and it looked like a very well developed goat trail.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: And they decided, let's just go up there.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Nothing else we can go up onto wherever this leads us,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and maybe look down across the other side.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Of the mountain and see if we can see anything.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: And so the team starts making their way up this
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: goat trail, and as soon as they start making their
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: way up, they start noticing that there are little pieces
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: of American military equipment on the ground. There are pieces
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: of radios like whip antennas and housing of the actual
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: radio itself. They found military style backpacks as well, and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: they started finding pieces of uniforms that belonged to the
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: missing infantry unit. They knew based on the patches that
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: were on these uniforms. So as they're walking up this
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: trail of broken equipment and uniforms, they start seeing some
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: bone on the ground.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: They didn't know if it was human bone or what.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: They start seeing broken bones scattered on their way up
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: to this kind of plateau. And so now the special
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Forces team, I mean, they're incredibly well trained. I mean
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: I'm not just being biased here. I mean that the
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Army Green Berets the Army Special Forces. They're very similar
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to the Navy Seal Teams, which I was a part of,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: two different units, no doubt, but very much peers. And
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: the level of training you get in handling situations like
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: this one. Now granted this one's pretty unique. You're so
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: well trained that when things start getting dangerous, it's like
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: your training just kicks in and everybody's does. And so
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I would imagine that when they saw this, what they
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: were thinking is this was an ambush. This infantry unit
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: was ambushed, and we're in this we're probably coming up
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: on the ambush site. And so they're you know, taking
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: defensive positions, and they're moving slowly and very tactically up
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: this mountain, and they're keeping their weapons pointed at the
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: leading edge.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: On their way up to the top of this mountain, they.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Get to this plateau, it's like a flat section of
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the mountain, right, It's like a steep mountain, and there's
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: like this little like shelf almost, and there's more equipment
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: scattered and more bones scattered across it, and there's all
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: these cave entrances right in front of them. It's as
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: if they were intentionally placed so that they fed out
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: onto the shelf, and so they start moving towards the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: mouth of the caves, and they realized without even getting
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: very close, that even though the mouth of these caves
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: are pretty large and everybody could go into the cave,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: there is a steep drop off like you'd walk in,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: and then it just goes straight down. And someone kind
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: of peered over the edge and couldn't see how far
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it went down, and they decided that it was just
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: too dangerous to go in there because clearly something happened
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: here where American lives were lost, you know, based on
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the tattered uniforms and equipment. And so let's just pull
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: back and take up defensive positions, looking at the entrance
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: to all of these these cave entrances, and so as
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: leadership goes down, kind of out of the fatal funnels,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: if you will, outside of these caves. Mister Kay, who's
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: the guy who's told us this whole story, he said,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: he's looking at one of the entrances to the caves,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: and he sees a flash of movement inside of the
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: cave and he looks over at it. He doesn't have
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: time to react to it or anything, and all of
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: a sudden a spear comes flying out of the cave.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: This big, like massive lance comes flying out and he
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: goes right through one of his teammates, whose name was Dan,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: and so Dan's down, and so the whole team saw that.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: They didn't see who threw it, but they certainly saw
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the spear hit Dan, and so as they're like shocked
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: and just keeping their weapon up, wondering what's going to happen,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: out runs this. By mister Kay's account, a twelve to
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: fifteen foot tall man with a red beard and red
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: hair down past his shoulders comes charging out, howling with
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: a war cry. He's got animal skins for clothes. He
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: just looks super dirty, and he runs over to Dan
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: to pull the spear out and probably use it again.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And the rest of the team at this point is
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: broken out of the shock of what they're seeing, and
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: they start engaging this giant, and the giant didn't have
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a chance to fight back, and in thirty seconds the
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: giant is down two. So Dan's down and the giant
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: is down, and the whole team is like, what just happened.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: So after the dust had settled and all the shooting
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: had stopped, they went to check on Dan. And Dan
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: had passed away, and so they called back into higher
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: headquarters and they're trying to describe what happened.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: A very large, possibly human.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Creature through a projectile that hit Dan, and so they
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: sent two helicopters out, one to retrieve Dan and the team,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the other just to hoist up this very large human
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: like creature because they wanted to know what it was.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: And they struggled mightily to get the netting around this
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: big creature. It ended up weighing over eleven hundred pounds.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: It had six toes on each foot, and it had
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: six fingers on each hand. They loaded up, they string
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: it onto the silo and it takes off, and the
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: team gets into the other helicopter and then go back.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Expecting to be debriefed as soon as they get back
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: to base.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: The helicopter with the giant would fly to an airfield
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: and they would meet up with a crew of a
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: C one thirty, which is another big military aircraft.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: The pilot of that craft.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Would publicly say that he remembers seeing a twelve to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: fifteen foot tall giant person with six fingers on each
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: hand six and six toes on each foot, and he
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: would say that's what he saw, even though it was
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: later redacted and made top secret. Mister K and his
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: team they flew back to the base to be debriefed,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: and so they had to provide an after action report.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: It's something done in the military.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: You go out, you do any operation, you come back
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: and you write up what happened. And so mister K
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and his team decided to just be honest about what
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: they saw, and so they described it again in detail.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: You know, six fingers on each han, six toes on
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: each foot. You know, it came out through the spear,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: it hit Dan. You know, it's this horrible situation. And
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: once they submitted it, their leadership said, you got to
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: rewrite that, like, we're not going to accept that. So
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: mister K said, they all rewrote it, and it just
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: sounded like a typical engagement in the mountains or the enemy.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: And it was made top secret and then they never
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: saw it again and that was it. Mister K said
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: that he and the rest of his team also had
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to sign non disclosure agreements to not ever talk about
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: what they saw, and they never got any word about
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: what actually happened, like what did they do with the
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: body of the giant, and.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: They just never got any clarity out of it.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: It was just basically made top secret, predacted, and they
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: were told don't talk about it. So I would take
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: until twenty sixteen when mister K finally just said, you
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: know what, screw it, I'm going to go public with
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: what I saw because my friend died and they're acting like,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you know, this didn't happen. But it did happen, and
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: so that's why we have this detailed report of this
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: mission where they came in contact with.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: The giant of kandahart. I don't know how I feel
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: about this story.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I do think that if there was a place in
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the world that had the ability to mask or hide
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: giants from being seen by the prying eyes of the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: human population, it would be Afghanistan. Times when I was
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: walking around out there that it felt like I was
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: walking around on another planet. But either way, you do
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: have one soldier who was killed by something out in
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: the mountains of Kandahar, and his own teammates say this
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: is what happened, and you have multiple corroborating witness testimony,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: but a lot of it's been made top secret and redacted,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: and so we don't really know what happened, or at
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: least at least us.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Commoners don't know what really happened.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: So I'd love to hear what you think happened, whether
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: you think this totally happened and it's true, or if
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: you think it was a hoax. If you enjoyed the story,
