Top 3 places you CAN'T GO & people who went anyways... Part 14 - MrBallen · Crime and Horror

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Every now and again, I come across a story that
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: is just so horrifying that it really just sticks with me.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: It disturbs me. And today's top story is one of those.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: And specifically, you need to listen to the final line
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: of today's top story to really grasp what actually happened
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: to this poor woman. But before we get into today's stories,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: if you're a fan of the strange, dark, and mysterious
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: delivered in story format, then you come to the right channel,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: because that's all we do when we upload three, four,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: even five times every week. So that's of interest to you.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Please ride a crowded elevator with the like button and
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: at some point turn to them and cover your nose
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: and say that you also, please subscribe to our channel
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: and turn on all notifications so you don't miss any
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: of our weekly uploads. All right, let's get into today's stories.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: When the earth collapses in on itself, creating a hole
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: in the ground that sucks away anything in a that's
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: called a sinkhole. These holes form when water dissolves the
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: rock layer underneath the soil. They range dramatically in size,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: from a barely noticeable depression in the ground to massive
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: chasms that are hundreds of meters wide and deep. If
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: you're one of the unfortunate few that falls into a
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: large sinkhole, you probably won't get out again because the
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: ground inside of a sinkhole after the initial implosion just
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: continues to sink. So if you were standing on the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: ground inside of a sinkhole, you would continuously be pulled
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: into the ground as it continued to crumble and churn
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: like quicksand below your feet. And even if you manage
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: to get to the sides inside of the sinkhole, you
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: could not climb up again because there wouldn't be any
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: handholds because the soil is all loose and wet. Luckily,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: most sinkholes form slowly and show lots of warning signs,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: allowing people to get away before it opens up, but
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: there are unique circumstances where large sinkholes can appear out
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: of nowhere. In Russia, hot water is piped into business
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: and residential buildings during the harsh winters. On November nineteenth,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, in the Russian city of Penza, which is
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: three hundred and forty miles south of Moscow, a large
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: hot water pipe burst underground below a car park Initially,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: nobody knew the pipe had burst, but witnesses would later
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: say they saw steam coming out of the ground near
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the car park, but they didn't think anything of it.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: A few minutes after the steam appeared, forty nine year
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: old Vladimir val Jelkin was driving his car through the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: car park. With him was his coworker, fifty three year
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: old Igor Chickisav. They worked together at a furniture store.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: As they made their way towards the exit of this
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: car park, there was another car ahead of them that
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: rolled over that section of pavement that was steaming, and
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: they watched as it rolled over and drove off, and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: nothing happened. And so Vladimir and Igor they drove over
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: that section of pavement and the ground collapsed under them.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: The burst hot water pipe had injected thousands of gallons
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of water into the soil right under the pavement, and
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: so it caused the sinkhole, but not just any sinkhole,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: a sinkhole that was slowly filling with boiling water. When
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the ground collapsed under Egor's car, it flipped the car
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: forward and it landed upside down at the bottom of
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: this ten meters deep sinkhole. And it landed just perfectly
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to where the doors could not open they would hit
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: the sides of the sinkhole, which also meant they couldn't
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: roll the windows down and crawl out because they would
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: hit the sides of the sinkhole. The men managed to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: get their seat belts off and flip themselves around and
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: began kicking on the windshield and yelling out for help.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: At this point, onlookers had made it to the edge
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: of the sinkhole, and when they looked down inside, they
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: realized there was nothing anyone could do. Jumping in was
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: a death sentence, so they watched in horror as Vladimir
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and Igor desperately tried to escape. But the scalding water
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: continued to fill the hole until it began leaking into
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the cabin of the vehicle, at which point the men
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: went quiet. A few moments later, the car completely disappeared
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: from view under the boiling water. Although not held criminally responsible,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the water company that owned the pipe that burst offered
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: to pay compensation to both families, as well as cover
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: all funeral costs. The northern end of New Zealand's South
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Island is a chaos of bays and sounds and within
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: this intricate coastline lies a narrow stretch of water called
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the French Pass, and it has a deadly secret. In
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: eighteen twenty seven, French Admiral Jules Durville was mapping the
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: coastline of South Island when he instructed his navigator to
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: enter the pass. As Durville's crew was entering the narrowest
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: section of the pass, they lost control of their ship
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and they began spinning. They eventually hit some rocks which
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: cracked their hull, but luckily they came to rest on
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: a nearby reef, which prevented them from sinking. After the incident,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Durville went back to France, and in his report he
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: said no one should enter the French Pass unless in
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: an emergency situation, because, as Durville and his crew learned firsthand,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the French Pass is home to some of the world's
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: most deadly whirlpools, which are exactly like the swirling tubes
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: of water going down your drain after a path, but
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: these are just much larger and will kill you. Now,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: these French Pass whirlpools are only really dangerous when the
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: tides are actively changing, because during that time, a current
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: rips through the waterway that increases the speed and violence
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: of the whirlpool. Once the transition is complete and it
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: becomes fully high tide or fully low tide, or even
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: during slack tide, the current slows down so dramatically that
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the whirlpools more or less vanish. So today mariners do
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: go through the French Pass, but they'll only go through
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: during high, low or slack tide. If they miscalculate the
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: tides and get caught in a whirlpool, they could be
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: dragged over the rocks, just like Admiral Durville and his crew. Now,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: while sailing through the pass is certainly hazardous, it's nothing
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: compared to the risks of scuba diving through the pass.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: If a scuba diver mistimes the tides and gets stucked
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: into a whirlpool, they won't get dragged over the rocks.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: They'll get pulled straight down to the bottom, where they'll
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: be funneled into these ultra deep holes that line the seafloor.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: The deepest of these holes is called Jacob's Hole, and
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it goes down over one hundred meters. On March tenth,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: two thousand seven, experienced eyes vers headed out to the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: French Pass to begin their fifth week of instruction in
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: their Dive Master course. With a dive Master certification, they
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: would become professional divers this day. As part of their curriculum,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: they needed to complete what's called a drift dive, where
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: instead of trying to fight the current, you simply go
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: with it. These seven divers, which were six students and
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: one instructor, would all be tethered to the same thirty
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: meter long line that had hand holds evenly spaced throughout it.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: On one end of this line was attached to a
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: buoy and then connected to the buoy was an inflatable wraft.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: This allowed surface observers in the boat to track the
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: progress of the dive. The plan was to boat out
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: to the middle of the pass during high tide, jump
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: in the water, and then ride the slow current out
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: of the pass, again avoiding all the whirlpools. So at
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: high tide, a boat took the seven divers out to
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: the middle of the pass. They all sat on the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: edge of the boat with their fins hanging off towards
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the side of the water. They clipped into that line
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: made sure their gear was good to go. They looked
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: at each other gave the okay symbol, they jumped into
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the water. As soon as they hit the water, they
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: removed all the air from their compensators and their life jackets,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and then when they were ready, they looked at each other,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: gave the thumbs down, and they went subsurface. One of
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: these student divers' husbands, a man named Talitt Smith, who
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: had previously completed the Dive Master course, was in the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: boat as a safety observer, and he said as soon
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: as the group got in the water and they went subsurface,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: immediately their booye and raft took off at a rapid pace.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Smith had to tell the boat driver to speed up
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: just to keep pace with the divers, but after only
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: a minute or two, the divers appeared to just stop
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: suddenly in the water, and the inflatable raft started spinning
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: in circles. When they drove over to the raft to
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: see what was going on, Smith looked down and realized
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: what had happened. The booiye and the line attached to
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: it that all the divers were holding onto had ripped
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: off of the inflatable raft and been sucked under the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: surface out of view. It would turn out the lead
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: instructor had gotten the tides wrong, and nobody had noticed
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: when the divers jumped into the water it was not
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: high tide like the instructor said it would be. It
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: was changing from high tide to low tide, which meant
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: instead of there being a one or two not current
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: perfect for a time ripdive, there was a six knot
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: current ripping through the waterway that sucked them under. And
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: for reference, any current that's above three knots is basically
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: physically impossible to swim out of, so all these divers
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: could do was ride it out and hope the current
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: spat them out before pushing them into a whirlpool. But
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: unfortunately that didn't happen. All seven divers were pulled directly
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: into the worst whirlpool of all because it sat over
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Jacob's Hole down They went all the way down to
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: one hundred meters at the bottom of this hole, where
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: they were pinned until eventually the whirlpool began releasing them
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: back on the surface. Smith, along with the other rescue
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: boats he had called in, once he realized this was
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: an emergency, began hauling the divers out of the water
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: one by one. When they popped up on the surface,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: floating face down. Six divers' surface. Four were badly shaken
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: up but were alive. One of them was the lead instructor.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Two had drowned. That was forty year old Ricky McDonald
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: and Smith's wife thirty three year old NoREL To Purry.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: As for the seventh and final diver, twenty one year
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: old David Welsh, his body was never found, so that's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: led some people to believe he may still be trapped
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: at the bottom of Jacob's home. The lead instructor, who
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: had gotten the tides wrong and the dive shop that
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: employed him were both charged with negligence and had to
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: pay a fine. After the accident, there was a big
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: push to ban scuba diving in the French Pass, but
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: it didn't hold. Today it's up to each diver to
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: make sure they never go in the pass when the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: tides are changing. Pelican Valley is a beautiful, remote section
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: of backcountry and Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. It's meandering
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: meadows and creeks and three hundred and sixty degree view
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: of the mountains make it appear like the perfect place
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: to camp out under the stars, But unlike other areas
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: of the park, Pelican Valley requires a special permit if
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: you intend to stay the ninth and before Yellowstone Park
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Rangers give you this permit, they remind you that Pelican
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Valley is a very dangerous place and in general, you
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: should only be out there with groups of at least
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: four people. Eighth nineteen eighty four, twenty five year old
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Brigita Fredenhagen, along with her brother Andreas and her sister
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: in law Jnco, arrived at Yellowstone National Park. That night,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: they stayed in one of the park's more established campgrounds
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: called Grant Village. The following day, they headed out to
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: one of the park's famous hot springs called the Norris Geyser.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: That afternoon, before heading back to their campsite, they made
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: a pit stop at the park rangers office so Brigita
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: could apply for a Pelican Valley permit. Her plan was
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: to spend the following night in the valley. When they
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: went in the office, the rangers believed all three of
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: them were applying for a permit, and so they weren't
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: asking that many questions and they were just kind of
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: going through the routine. And then when Brigita said, no,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: it's just going to be me applying for a permit.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: They actually immediately tried to dissuade her and said, this
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: is a really bad idea. Nobody goes into Pelican Valley
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: on their own. But Brigita assured them that she was
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: an experienced camper, she understood the risks, and she still
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: wanted to go on her own. And Andreas and Jonco,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: who were standing behind her, kind of echoed that sentiment
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: and said, no, she's really good. She knows what she's doing.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: The park ranger were not thrilled with her plan, but
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: they ultimately decided, you know what, if she wants to go,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: she can go. They just asked her to show them
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: on a map where she intended to camp, so if
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: they needed to they could come and check on her
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: and make sure she was okay. And so she pointed
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to a section on the map and they handed her
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: her permit, and then she, along with Andreas and Johnco,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: left the office and headed back to their campsite. The
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: next morning, the trio got up early and they hopped
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: in the car and drove to the Pelican Valley trailhead.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: They parked their car, they got out, and they began
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: walking into Pelican Valley as the group. After a few miles,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: as planned, the group stopped, at which point Andreas told
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Burghita that they were going to head back now and
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: that they would meet her tomorrow at the trailhead where
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: they parked the car. They said their goodbyes, and then
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Andreas and Johnco turned around and started walking back towards
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the car, and Burgita carried on into the wilderness. The
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: following day, Andreas and Johnco arrived at the trailhead to
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: meet Burgita, but she didn't show up, and after a
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: couple of hours they grew very concerned, so they called
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: park rangers and asked them, you know, have you seen Burgita?
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: And they said no, but we'll go take a look.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: The area Brigita had told park ranger she was going
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: to be camping was inside of a densely forested area
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: right next to a large meadow, which meant as park
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: rangers came up to check on her, they would not
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: actually be able to see her until they were practically
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: right on top of her. So the park rangers made
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: their way through the meadow and into the forest before
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: they started yelling for Brigitta, but she didn't yell back,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: and then at some point they reached the area where
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: she had said she was camping, and sure enough they
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: found her tent, but it was a very odd scene.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: When they came up to the tent, they could see
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: there was a big tear in one side. When they
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: put their heads down and looked inside, all of her
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: belongings in the tent were undisturbed. There was a foam
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: sleeping mat right in the middle, and then to the
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: right of the mat was a flashlight that had been
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: turned off. On the left side of the pad was
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: a tape player with headphones that she must have been
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: listening to before bed. It had been left on until
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: the batteries ran out. At the foot of the pad
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: was her backpack, inside of which were all of her
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: clothes that had been neatly packed inside of ziplock bags
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: to mask percent. Also in the pack was a wilderness
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: survival guide with a page flipped down that was a
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: diagram of how to string your food up into the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: trees so no animals can get to it. The rangers
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: looked around the backside of the tent about two meters away,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: and they found her sleeping bag perfectly flat on the ground,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: as if it had been laid out to dry in
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the sun, but upon closer inspection they found it had
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: two puncture marks, one that was up near the neck
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: of the bag and the other that was near the torso,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: but there was no blood on the bag. At this point,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: rangers started to speculate that this could have been an
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: animal attack, but they were confused at the general tidiness
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: of the scene. Typically, when an animal attacks a person,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: it looks like a bomb went off in the area
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: where the attack occurred, and this campsite was very very neat.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: As the rangers continued to walk around the campsite looking
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: for clues and yelling out for Brigita, they found a
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: barely discernible dragtail a couple of meters away from the
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: sleeping bag that was leading west into the forest and
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: up a hill, and so the rangers started following this trail,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: and they got about twenty meters away from the camp
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: when they discovered Brigita's cooler lying on the ground on
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: its side, and whatever food had been in there was
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: now gone. There was some string laying it, so it
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: looked like it had been strung up in the trees,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: but someone or something had gotten it down from the cooler.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: The rangers continue walking along this drag trail another twenty
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: meters or so up a hill where they discover a
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: woman's sweater on the ground that's been torn up and
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: there's blood on it. So at this point the rangers
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: get their rifles up and they keep walking another forty
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: meters up and over the hill down into this clearing
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: in the woods where they find Burgita, or what was
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: left of her. No one knows exactly what happened to Burgita,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: but the theory based on physical evidence, is this after
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: setting up her campsite, Brigita climbed inside of her tent,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: got inside of her sleeping bag, and then put her
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: headphones on to listen to music. A little while later,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: a mailed grizzly bear discovered Brigita's cooler strung up in
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: the trees about twenty meters away, and apparently Brigida did
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: not string it high enough because the bear was able
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: to reach up and pull it down. After the bear
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: ate the food inside of the cooler, it was still hungry,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: so it began looking around the area for more to eat.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: It's believed this bear was so accustomed to human traffic
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: in the area that when he stumbled across Brigida's tent
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: was scared. In fact, he thought there's food inside of there,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: there's people I can eat. So this bear quietly lumbers
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: over to the side of the tent. It reaches up
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and cuts the nylon with its paw, and then it
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: puts its head inside and bites down on Brigida's skull
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: and begins dragging her away. There was no sign of
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: a struggle in or near the tent, indicating that Brigida
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: was most likely asleep, or maybe she just could not
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: hear the bear because she still had her headphones in.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: She was dragged eighty meters by her skull to that
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: clearing where she was consumed. An attack like this is
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: exactly the reason why Pelican Bay is considered so dangerous,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: because it's full of grizzly bears, and even though grizzly
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: attacks on humans are incredibly rare, most people do not
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: understand just how horrific they are when they do occur.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Grizzly bears don't really try to kill their prey before
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: they eat them. Instead, they focus on pinning them down
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: and then getting them under their body weight so they
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: can't go anywhere, at which point they can eat them
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: at a leisurely pace. Some say grizzlies actually prefer to
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: eat their prey while they're still living, which is why
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: so often and grizzly attacks you see the arms and
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: legs eaten first, and then the head and torso this
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: is a method that keeps the victim alive a little
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: bit longer. Unfortunately, there was so little left of Brigida
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: that investigators could not pinpoint a time of death. However,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: because this bear broke normal behavior and intentionally targeted a human,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: there's a good chance he savored that meal. So that's
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: going to do it. Guys. If you found the secret
