in video games Easter eggs are small secrets or messages hidden within the
game itself developers create Easter eggs just for the fun of it
to reward or confuse players who visit lesser-known areas of the worlds they
build Easter eggs can be found in film and computing and even real-life across
the world there are strange objects and features built for the exact same
purpose they are real life Easter eggs and they
take the form of all kinds of things two years ago I made a video on real life
Easter eggs that featured many of these giant pink rabbits in the middle of
nowhere mysterious buttons that change their
surroundings it's a ridiculous world we live in and there are so many more out
there I decided to make another video
hidden within a Connecticut forest can be found a small village and when I say
small I mean of ridiculous proportions known as the abandoned fairy village, most
who live in surrounding areas have no idea she exists the buildings themselves
are complex like real structures of a civilization that just happened to be
tiny it's unknown who actually built the village or for what reason one rumor
tells it was built by a local man who went crazy
believing evil fairies were stalking him desperate to stop them from terrorizing
him he built them their own home in the woods another rumor tells it was
literally built by fairies themselves either way it has been abandoned for a
long time left to crumble in the woods that hide it
there is a remote Japanese village notorious for a bizarre world war two
legend since 1933 it has been said to house the tomb of Jesus Christ in that year
documents in ancient Hebrew were supposedly found according to those
documents Jesus never died on a cross but his brother did in his place instead
Jesus fled to Asia into northern Japan where he became a rice farmer it's said
he married adopted a Japanese name and eventually died here at the age of a
hundred and four apparently the documents were seized by the Japanese
government in 1935 and have not been seen since still many locals believe
Jesus died in their small village and have his tomb openly displayed
in the 1980s strange messages began to appear on the streets of major American
cities embedded into the concrete's of public roads they were etched into large
tiles with a bizarre message Toynbee dea in movie 2001 resurrect dead on
planet Jupiter following decades saw countless more of these tiles emerge in
dozens of cities but there was no sign of who installed them still today they
are sometimes discovered it's unknown if they are left by a single person or by
some kind of secret society or even what the message means it's for to refer
to the philosopher Arnold Toynbee who said mankind could use technology to
create our own heaven and to a sci-fi film about a man headed from Earth to
Jupiter perhaps the message is meant to encourage humanity to colonize other
planets or it could just be silly American nonsense most of the tires were
removed at one time or another but some remain lying in plain sight in the
middle of cities like Philadelphia
in the middle of a New England pine forest lies a tiny out of place desert
known as the desert of Maine it is just 40 acres in total and entirely
surrounded by woodland technically it's not a real desert as
the area gets a lot of rain and if not for dumb humans it wouldn't even exist
the desert of Maine was once a farm with fertile soil covering what is now barren
silt from the late 1700s the Tuttle family owned the land
growing crops and raising sheep here but they failed to properly care for the
land and over time the soil eroded after generations of mismanagement there was
no soil left just a sands like mineral called silt unable to grow plants
in the silt, they sold the land in 1919 for just $300 since then it has been
preserved as the world's smallest desert
in 1993 a large comet was discovered on course to collide with Jupiter most
people thought nothing of this but the Council of a small Wyoming city did they
worries for any people living on Jupiter might be in danger
so they officially designated a local airstrip as an intergalactic spaceport
ever since then the city of Green River has had its own spaceport ready for
alien arrival - of the only one of its kind in the world now I do have a
history of stating facts that are obvious nonsense but I promise this one
is real
in the middle of Times Square stands an entirely empty building despite being a
giant skyscraper in one of the world's most valuable areas it's been empty for
two-and-a-half decades for most of its history it housed major corporations
then in 1995 a bank purchased it with the sole purpose of covering the
exterior with adverts understanding how iconic Times Square had become they
simply abandoned with 25 floors inside repurposing the tower as a giant
billboard people thought they were crazy for doing this but it was a huge success
and as a result of this there's just an empty tower in the center of Times Square
deep in the Chilean desert there is a colossal hand reaching out of the
earth as if the corpse of a giant has been buried standing 36 feet tall it is
literally bigger than me and being 46 miles from the nearest settlement it's
literally in the middle of nowhere so you're probably wondering what we
purpose of his giant hand is and there isn't one
it was created by an artist to simply give a landmark to an empty stretch of
desert apparently it's meant to represent
something about humanity but it really doesn't matter it's just a big hand
In 19th century Ohio a well-off investor decided who found his own town he was a
very successful man but establishing a community was no easy feat and the
location he chose was in the middle of nowhere so to give it a jump start he
literally gave it the name center of the world his hope was that rail companies
would build a station here creating a natural inflow of people that's how a
lot of American towns were born but rail companies chose another nearby town and
he gave up on the whole thing he simply gave up on the center of the world but
if you visit the area now you're still find signs naming it the center of the
world
in remote areas of the United States you might stumble upon one of these, a
70-foot concrete arrow due to its size you might not even notice it but from
the sky you'd see it clearly they were built in 1920s to help pilots navigate
their way across America over time the US Postal Service had began to pioneer
air delivery but as there was no radio pilots often found themselves lost as a
result Congress ordered a network of join arrows to literally guide the way
1,500 were built though now a forgotten chapter of aviation most of the arrows
can still be found and in theory could still be used to navigate
Almost precisely at the bottom of our world stands an eerie Soviet relic it's known
as the pole of inaccessibility which I feel is a misleading name for obvious
reasons the area was first reached in 1958 by a Soviet research team for 12
days they operated a small research station here which they built from
scratch atop the station was a bust of Soviet Union founder of Vladimir Lenin
six decades later the station is almost entirely buried in snow, leaving only the
bust of Lenin visible and so it stands alone as if the Soviets had gone all the
way just to build it
