  Speaker 1: Today, I'm going to share with you three progressively more
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: disturbing stories, and at the end of each of them,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: I'm going to share with you the picture or video that.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Is famously associated with them.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: But before I get into today's stories, if you're a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: fan of these strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: then you come to the right channel, because that's all

  Speaker 1: I do, and I upload three, four, even five times
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: every week. So if that's of interest to you, please
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: offer the like button a flimsy plastic outdoor chair and
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: then once they sit down, kick one of.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: The legs out from under them.

  Speaker 2: You don't miss any of my weekly outputs. All right,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: let's get into today's stories.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Following World War Two, the Soviet Union began investing heavily
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: into nuclear power, and by nineteen seventy seven, the v
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: I Lenin Nuclear Power Station, located in Chernobyl, UK, was
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: finally operational. The station itself was comprised of four reactors
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: that were each labeled one, two, three, and four. On
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: April twenty fifth, nineteen eighty six, a group of very
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: sleep deprived plant workers began running a series of routine
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: tests on nuclear reactor number four. They were trying to
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: see if the reactor could still be cooled even in
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: the event of a complete power loss. But during the test,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: perhaps because they were sleep deprived and just didn't feel
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: like doing it, they started cutting corners and violated a
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: number of safety protocols that led to several surges of
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: power inside of the reactor. This led to a chain
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: reaction of explosions within reactor number four that culminated in
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: a massive explosion that blew the lid off the building,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: exposing the reactor's core. It would take the Soviets ten
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: days to finally stop the fire that was raging inside
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: of this exposed core, which meant for those ten days,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: radiation on an unprecedented level was spewed into the environment
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: by this fire. But even after the fire was you
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: have all this radioactive material that needs to be properly
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: disposed of, and so the Soviets started by using robots
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to go up and pick up these materials and dispose
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of them. But the robots were breaking down from the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: high levels of radiation, and so naturally the Soviets sent
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: in groups of men to go pick up the material,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and dozens of people died from radiation sickness. A few
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: months after the explosion, the first steel sarcophagus was built
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: around reactor number four to try to contain some of
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: that radiation. But even with that protection, it's estimated that
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the area around Chernobyl will not be habitable for another
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: twenty thousand years. So as a result, the Soviet Union
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: created what they call an exclusion zone, which is nineteen
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: miles all around Chernobyl that no one can go inside of,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: and so nature's kind of reclaimed this area that used
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to be a fairly bustling metropolis. One year after the disaster,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Ukrainian containment crews finally broke into the steam corridor that
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: was located underneath the molten remains of Reaction number four,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and as soon as they stepped in, their radiation readers
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: spiked all the way to the top, and so they
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: know that whatever's at the other end of this l
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: shaped hallway is something they did not want to get
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: close to, and so they put a camera on a
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: chair with wheels and they pushed it down the hall
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to where it finally broke that corner and had a
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: clear line of site to the other end, and using
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: a timer on the camera, they were able to take
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: a picture of one of these single most dangerous things
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: in the entire world.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: It became known as the elephant's foot.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: It was a molten pile of nuclear fuel and melted
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: metal and sand and concrete that it all kind of
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: converged and seeped through a pipe meant for steam and
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: found its way into the basement. It was and still is,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: emitting the equivalent level of radiation.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Of four and a half million chest X rays every
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: hour today. If you were to stand.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: In front of the Elephant's foot without proper equipment for
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: thirty seconds, your cells would start to hemorrhage and you
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: would become viciously ill, and you could even at two
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: minutes of exposure. You're definitely going to die, but not
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: right away. You have forty eight hours and there's nothing
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: you can do to stop it. You are one hundred
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: percent going to die. On October thirty first, twenty thirteen,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: four mechanics were performing routine maintenance on a wind turbine
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: in the Netherlands in the early afternoon. All four of
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: them are standing on top of the turbine itself, two
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: on one end and two on the other, and a
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: small fire breaks out inside of the housing of the turbine,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: right near where you would go back.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Into the housing.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Now it's unclear what caused the fire, but it's speculated
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: that it was caused by.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: A short circuit.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: The two engineers on this side of the turbine were
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: able to jump over the fire land in the stairwell
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and run their way down to safety.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: The other two on this side had a.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Bad angle and could not make the jump, and so
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: they had to wait until rescue workers showed up to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: put the fire out. But wind turbines are usually in
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: areas that are very far away from society because they're
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: huge and their kind of eye sores.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: And so the response time was not good.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: The fire department did not show up very quickly, and
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: by the time they got to the wind turbine, that
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: little fire had gotten much much bigger and had creeped
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: up onto the platform that they are on.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: And then when the fire.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Department actually started performing their job, the fire had spread
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: well down the stairwell, and so it was very difficult
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and took a very long time to make their way
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: up using the stairs and the crane on the truck
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: itself did not extend high enough to reach them either.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: The two trapped mechanics are watching this in real time.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: They're looking down and they can see the fire department
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: is not going to be able to reach us in time,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: because the fire is now spreading and getting bigger and bigger,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: and they're being pushed to the very edge of this
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: wind turbine with an eighty meter fall to the ground.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: As the fire inched closer and closer and closer to them,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the men must have realized that they have.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: To make a decision here. They can either sit here
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: and wait and hope for some miracle that perhaps a.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Helicopter shows up and scoops them up, or some other
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: mechanism of rescue is able to occur. Or they try
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: to make a run for it through the flames on
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the top of the turbine into the stairwell and just
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: hope that the fire in the stairwell is not as
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: severe and that maybe they can run through it and
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: make it out the other side. Or the final option
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: is to jump off the side and hope you survived
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the fall. And so, as the fire continued to grow
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: and get closer and closer to them, the men embrace
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: one last time, and then one of them makes a
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: run for it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Through the flames into the stairwell.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: His charred body would be found right at the landing
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: of the stairs.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: He did not make it very far. He really had
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: no hope.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: The last remaining mechanic is standing there wondering what he
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: should do. He's probably looking down in hopes that he's
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: going to see his friend who just ran in there
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: emerge at the bottom on the ground safe. But he doesn't,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and after a considerable amount of time, and the fire
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: is getting closer and closer, he knows his friend didn't
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: make it, and probably not wanting to suffer the fate
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: that his friend.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Did, he jumps.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: This is the picture of the two mechanics embracing for
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: that final time.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sure at the time of this picture they were
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: aware that almost certainly they were not going to get
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: out of this alive. They were nineteen and twenty one
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: years old in twenty thirteen.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Philip Chisholm was a fourteen year old high school student
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: going to school in Danvers, Massachusetts.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: He lived at home with his single mother.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Classmates described Chisholm as being quiet, a bit of a loner,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: He was a great student, and he was the leading
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: scorer of his soccer team. On October twenty second, twenty thirteen,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Chisholm missed soccer practice in the afternoon and then missed
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a team dinner that night, at which point his teammates
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: tried calling and texting him. He didn't get back to them,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: so they got in touch with his mother. She tried
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: reaching out to him to no avail, and so she
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: contacted the police and said, my son is missing. On
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the same night that Chisholm is reported missing, one of
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: his teachers, twenty four year old Colleen Ritzer, doesn't come
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: home from work. Her family and friends try reaching out
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: to her, texting or calling her no response, so they
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: too go to the police and they report her missing
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: as well. The police were already looking for Chisholm, so
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: when they hear one of his teachers is also missing,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: they assume they must be linked, and so they go
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: to the high school, even though it's well after hours,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: to see if maybe there's some clues there. They search
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the high school and Chisholm is not there, and neither
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: is miss Ritzer. But when they're looking in the girl's restroom,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that was right next to miss Ritzer's classroom.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: They find a small splash of blood.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Even though at the time they had no way of
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: knowing if this blood was connected to Chisholm or Miss Ritzer,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: they decided they would pull all the security footage for
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: the past twenty four hours that was looking in the
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: direction of this bathroom, and they make a startling discovery.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Starting at the two point fifty four pm mark on
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: October twenty second, the day they went missing. This is
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Miss Ritzer walking down the hall towards the bathroom that
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: had blood in it. This is Chisholm following miss Ritzer
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: into the hall. He's looking hesitant. He doesn't really know
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: what he's going to do. He's thinking about following her,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: and at some point he says, you know what I
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: am going to do this He goes back into the classroom,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: re emerges with his foot on, and walks down the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: hall towards the bathroom where Miss Ritzer is. This is
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Chisholm entering the girl's bathroom with surgical gloves on. Eleven
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: minutes later, Chisholm would leave the bathroom, Miss Ritzer would
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: still be inside. Chishom would leave school property he would
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: run outside, he would get a big recycling bin, and
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: then he would wheel that back into the school, and
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: then he would go back into the.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Bathroom with the recycling bin.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: At three twenty one pm, twenty six minutes after Chisholm
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: had first entered the girl's bathroom after Miss Ritzer, he
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: re emerges now wearing a full face mask.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: He doesn't have a sweatshirt on anymore, and.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: He's pulling along this recycling bin that looks noticeably heavier
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: than when he brought it in, and that's because Miss
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Ritzer's body is now stuffed inside of it. Police were
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: able to locate Miss Ritzer's body using these surveillance cameras
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: on the outside of the school. They just watched what
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: he did with the recycling bin, and he didn't bring
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: it very far away from the school. Police were able
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: to quickly track Chisolm down and arrest him because as
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: soon as he was done attacking Miss Ritzer, he used
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: her credit card to go to a movie theater in
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: town and watched a movie. So he's on security cameras
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: watching the movie, and the police were tracking her credit
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: cards because they noticed they were stolen, and they saw
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: that he had swiped the card at this movie theater,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: so he gets.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Arrested and he's given a life sentence.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Here's the footage of Chisholm leaving the girl's bathroom with
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: miss Ritzer's body inside of that recycling bin. His motives
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: remain unclear, but he claims she used what he called
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: a trigger word that really upset him.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: So that's going to do it. Guys, I hope you
• 10:38
