Hello my curious. Be all...
Weeeeeeeeeelcome to a new video!
The encrypted language has been used since ancient times
by different groups of people to hide important messages.
That's why in today's video, I made a compilation for you with 10 of those codes
or encrypted messages that nobody has been able to solve even though many have tried.
From a 5-line code that could have helped solve the death of a man,
to these encrypted pages that contain the location of a secret treasure.
It sounds interesting, right?
Only before I start with the topic, I have a small question for you.
This book or manuscript that you are seeing dates from the year 1400
and has never been deciphered by anyone.
It's so strange that I included it in a video about strange and mysterious books
that I posted a while ago on the channel.
If you saw that video, you sure remember its name.
Choose any of these 4 options, and write it down below in the comments at this time.
At the end of the video we'll see if you guessed right, because I'm going to tell you his name,
okay?
Now we are ready! Make yourself comfortable!
And enjoy it my friend!
I'm Curious Ben, and… how curious are you?
Tamam Shud Case
The encrypted code of the Taman Shud case consists of 5 lines of disordered and meaningless letters.
The interesting part of this code that you are seeing is that if deciphered,
it could have helped solve the death of a man.
It's mysterious, right?
History says that on December 1, 1948,
the body of a man lying on the beach of Somerton in Australia was found.
The only clues that the police had to solve that crime and to know the identity of the man,
were a piece of paper where the words Taman Shud were read,
and this code of 5 lines that could never be solved by anyone.
It is believed that deciphering the code and the phrase could give more clues
about the identity of the dead man on Somerton Beach...
Who he was, who killed him and other similar details but could never decipher it.
Since the case was opened in 1948,
it was never clear who Somerton's man was or who killed him,
and the only clues in the case, the phrase and the 5-line ciphertext,
could never be solved despite the fact that several experts tried.
Number 9
Phaistos Disc
The Phaistos Disc was found in 1908 during an excavation,
and in spite of the attempts to decipher what it says, its content remains a complete mystery.
The story goes that during the excavation of the Minoan palace of Phaistos,
the archaeologist Luigi Pernier and his team
found this mysterious disk of baked clay hidden among heaps of pottery.
The disc quickly caught the attention of the team when they noticed that their writing
was not similar to any other type of writing they had seen before.
According to experts, the disc has 62 printed signs or words that could mean anything.
Until now no one knows in which direction it is read, whether from the inside out or vice versa,
much less there are clues about who made it.
Since the disk was discovered, a hundred possible translations have been proposed,
but none of them has been fully accepted by the experts,
although there are indications that it could have been used for religious purposes.
At the moment, the Phaistos Disc is in the museum of Heraklion in Crete,
without nobody has been able to decipher its content.
Number 8
Code Z340
The "Code Z-340" was a cryptogram sent by the famous "Zodiac Killer"
to several San Francisco newspapers.
Deciphering the code would have been the key to capture it, but nobody could ever solve it.
The story goes that the murderer sent letters to the newspapers in San Francisco
where he gave macabre details about his motivations and what he did with his victims.
Many of these letters were encrypted,
full of hard-to-resolve codes and they said a lot about the kind of person they were dealing with...
A really crazy assassin who had advanced knowledge of cryptography.
It turns out that one of those many letters that the killer sent was the famous code known as Z-340.
Resolving the cryptogram would have changed the course of the investigation
because it supposedly contained insights into the true identity of the Zodiac Killer.
But as you can imagine,
nobody had enough intellect to decipher it.
For many years this code was ranked number 1 of codes to be resolved
by the Federal Office of Cryptanalysis in the United States,
but when they saw that nobody could solve it,
they concluded that it was an indecipherable code.
It is curious to think that decrypting this code of 340 characters,
could solve one of the greatest mysteries in history:
Who was really the Zodiac Killer.
-Damn crap! -You're not the killer, Benny.
You are a cat!
Number 7
Isaac's Ciphers
These 5 pages, which are known as Isaac's ciphers,
supposedly contain a series of diagrams with extraterrestrial origins
that nobody has been able to decipher.
The little that is known about this story and its protagonist,
Isaac!
Is that according to his version of events,
he worked in an ultra-secret laboratory of the US government called CARET during the 80's.
So far so good!
If not because he claimed that in that laboratory experimented with extraterrestrial technology.
That's weird, right?
To demonstrate that what he said was true,
he shared these diagrams or encrypted codes that could never be solved by anyone.
And they are now known as "The Alien Ciphers of Isaac".
The problem is that this is the only thing that is known about this story.
There is no other information that helps to know the true identity of Isaac
nor is there any way to corroborate if what he says is true.
Since the papers were shared on the Internet several years ago,
many people have tried to decipher its content but it has been in vain.
Number 6
Blitz Ciphers
The Blitz Ciphers are a set of 8 pages with unknown writing
that were found in a wooden box during the Second World War.
No one knows for sure what they say, nor what kind of language was used to write them.
According to the reports of the case, the wooden box that these strange ciphers kept
was found in a basement bombed in the city of London, during the Second World War.
The person who found them never wanted to reveal his identity,
but he shared his discovery to find out if anyone could solve it.
As you can imagine, all kinds of theories about the content of the pages have arisen,
and the most accepted until now
suggests that it is very likely that they were confidential documents
of a secret society of the last century.
Since Blitz's papers were found in that box,
nobody has been able to decipher what they say,
and its content remains a complete mystery to this day.
Number 5
Sator Square
The Sator Square or Rotas Square is an inscription or code
that has been found in different places around Europe.
Nobody knows what it means,
much less who was the author or responsible for drawing or carving them.
Very curious, right?
The painting is composed of five words in Latin:
SATOR, AREPO, TENET, OPERA and ROTAS,
words that can be read from left to right or top to bottom giving the same result:
SATOR, AREPO, TENET, OPERA and ROTAS.
If we translate those words from Latin into English, I would say something like:
"The Arepo sower skillfully guides the wheels"
As it is a sentence that has no meaning,
it is believed that this translation is not the correct one but there is a deeper meaning behind it.
The encrypted code, if it can be called that way,
appeared in history from the first century carved on different bases or surfaces,
from stones to furniture, and, it may sound casual or not,
it always appeared near hermitages and monasteries of Knights Templar.
Who was the one in charge of writing it?,
and exactly what SATOR, AREPO, TENET, OPERA and ROTA mean?
-Bullshit! -It does not mean that, Benny.
Are you insane?
Number 4
Copiale Cipher
The Copiale Cipher is the name of this encrypted manuscript that nobody could solve
until 3 university professors managed to decode it in 2011.
History says that the manuscript was discovered in a secret section
of the German Academy of Sciences in Berlin by a person unknown in the nineties.
Since it was known of its existence,
several cryptographers tried to decipher it but none of them could get it.
It was not until 2011 that the 105 pages of the Copiale cipher
were dis-encoded by these three professors from different universities,
and their content turned out to be more mysterious than they expected.
According to the official transcript, the Copiale cipher belonged to an old secret society
of Masonic origin that called the Oculists or the Great Eye sect.
In its pages is all that a new member should know about the secret society.
To make sure that the code could only be interpreted by members of the group,
they decided to encrypt all its content using unknown symbols along with Greek and Latin letters.
It's interesting, right?
Who the book belonged to, and what it did at the German Academy of Sciences...
that still has not been deciphered.
Number 3
YOG'TZE
The encrypted YOG'TZE code was written by a man named Gunther Stoll
just a few hours before he lost his life in a traffic accident.
It is believed that these words were closely related to his death,
but the German government could never decipher them.
History says that before his death,
Gunther Stoll told his wife that a group of men planned to harm him
but he never knew how to explain to them who they were or why.
Finally on October 25, 1984,
his suspicions became reality and a group of men who could never be identified
ended his life in a confusing traffic accident.
The mystery became bigger when his wife revealed to the police
that the last thing her husband left was this note with this code,
and that while he wrote it he said the words: "Now I understand everything!"
What did Gunther Stoll understand and what does YOG'TZE mean exactly?
We probably never know!
Number 2
Beale ciphers
The ciphers or papers of Beale are composed of 3 codes that if solved,
would reveal the location of a treasure valued at 30 million dollars.
Since the encrypted codes were made public for the first time in 1880,
no one has been able to solve them and the treasure is still hidden to this day.
According to the official version, Thomas J. Beale and a group of 30 people
decided to hide a treasure in some unknown area of Bedford County in Virginia.
The reason why they hid it is not yet clear
but apparently they wrote down everything that is known about the treasure in these codes.
The sequence of numbers represent letters or words that would give you its exact location,
but nobody has been able to decipher or interpret them to date.
140 years after these codes were made public,
Beale's papers could not be interpreted by anyone and the treasure is still hidden...
If it really exists!
Number 1
Ricky McCormick's encrypted notes
Deciphering the content of these notes would have helped resolve the murder of Ricky McCormick.
To date no one has managed to solve them and the case is still open.
The story goes that on June 30, 1999, the corpse of a man named Ricky McCormick
was found half buried near a field of corn outside of St. Louis, Missouri.
There were no clues about who could have killed him, let alone why he would do it.
The only clue, if it can be considered as such,
were these two pages with information in code that nobody understands.
The FBI is convinced that deciphering the code could help solve the case definitely,
so they have not closed it since 1999 with the hope that someone will do it.
Who murdered Ricky McCormick and why did he have these two pages with mysterious codes in his pocket?
Nobody knows and it's been almost 20 years.
And that's all for today!
If you loved the video as much as I did,
do not forget to leave a thumbs up to support me because that is very helpful.
The answer to the question, by the way, is the manuscript of Voynich...
-Humbug! -The humbug manuscript does not even exist, Benny
The Voynich manuscript was written by an anonymous author in an indecipherable language.
And do not doubt that it is one of the strangest books in all history.
