Hello my curious! Be all...
Weeeeeeeelcome to a new video!
The inhabitants of a village called Maules, in Switzerland,
claimed that in the forest lived a person wearing a large cape and a gas mask.
One day someone found his clothes lying near a tree, but his true identity was never revealed.
How frightening, right?
Well, now I have prepared a list for you with 10 Mysterious People Who Were Never Identified.
From that strange person who lived in the forest of Maules,
to the mysterious and anonymous creator of the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.
So I'm sure you'll love this video!
Only before starting with the subject, I have a small question for you.
In one of my previous videos I told you the story of a murderous clown
who claimed the lives of 33 victims. Do you remember the artistic name of that clown?
If you watched the video you will surely know the correct answer,
so write it in the comments at this moment, okay?
Now we are ready! Make yourself comfortable!
And enjoy it my friend!
I'm the curious Ben. And… how curious are you?
Roland Doe
It is said that Roland Doe was a 14-year-old boy who suffered a demonic possession
and several exorcisms at the end of the 40s.
As he was only a child, instead of using his real name,
the Catholic Church decided to use the pseudonym of Roland Doe to protect his true identity.
The story tells that the boy was subjected to more than 30 sessions of exorcism
because it was believed that he was possessed by a demon.
How scary, right?
The little that is known about him is that he lived in Missouri, United States.
And it is believed that his problems with beings from beyond,
were caused by playing the ouija with his aunt.
It is said that when his aunt died, strange things began to happen in the house where the family lived.
For example, some furniture moved alone, strange noises were heard out of nowhere,
and Roland began to feel hatred against any religious object he encountered on his way.
Finally, it was never known who Roland Doe really was.
The church only reported that the exorcisms gave their results.
How interesting, don't you think?
If by chance the story of him seems a bit familiar,
it's because he served as inspiration for the movie "The Exorcist"
Number 9
Tank Man
This is the name by which the person in this photograph is known.
It turns out that on June 5, 1989, during a student protest near a Beijing plaza,
several tanks arrived in the area to try to calm the protest.
What those soldiers never imagined is that a man would cross his path.
Seeing this, the photographers did their thing immortalizing that moment.
Over the years, the photo not only became popular for what it represented that moment in history,
but also because it was never known who the man really was.
With the passage of time, he became known simply as the tank man.
-Bullshit! -You're not going to buy yourself a tank, okay?
The only thing that was known about that man is that several guys took him away by force,
and he was never seen again.
It's been almost 30 years, so it's very likely that we never know his real identity.
The only theory that exists about who could be this man,
points to a 19-year-old boy named Wang Weilin, but this was never confirmed.
Number 8
John Doe
In April 2016, news-casts from around the world exposed the names of rich and famous people
who were committing a crime known as tax evasion.
That scandal was officially known as "The Panama Papers".
The interesting thing about that scandal is that all the information
was revealed by a person who used the pseudonym "John Doe".
This "John Doe" filtered about 11 million documents
proving that hundreds of companies and celebrities were committing that crime.
The repercussion of this case was so great
that many politicians and public officials related to those documents
had to resign their positions, and others were persecuted until they were put on trial.
A few months later, "John Doe" made an official statement saying that he was willing
to help the authorities in whatever they wanted,
with the only condition that they will never reveal their identity.
He also made it clear that his motivation for revealing this
was that he was already tired of so much corruption in the world.
It's been more than 2 years since that scandal,
and the identity of "John Doe" remains a complete mystery.
Number 7
Lady Babushk
With this nickname is known an anonymous woman
who could have helped to solve the case of the murder of former US President, John F. Kennedy.
On November 22, 1963, while passing in his presidential car on a major avenue in that country,
a sniper ended his life with a shot in his head.
That event shocked not only that nation but the entire world,
as you can imagine!
From the first day the investigations began to catch the murderer,
but things got more complicated than they expected.
Several names were on the list of suspects,
but it is believed that they never managed to really catch the perpetrator.
Analyzing the videos and the photographs they had of that day,
the police managed to see a woman who was very close to the president
when he was murdered.
She is Lady Babushka.
Because of the location where Lady Babushka was filming that moment,
it is believed that her video could have shown who the murderer was.
The strangest thing is that they never managed to find her or the video she had recorded.
What a mystery, right?
Number 6
Satoshi Nakamotos
This is the pseudonym with which the creator of the Bitcoin is known.
Even if you do not know much about that world of cryptocurrencies,
sure you hear that word Bitcoin.
People often think that the creator of these bitcoins
must be someone very famous and well-known of our times,
right?
Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
The only thing that is known about the creator of Bitcoin
is that he uses the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.
But his true identity remains a complete mystery.
Since 2010, when this bitcoin thing started to sound louder,
many people have tried to decipher who Satoshi Nakamoto is,
but there are no clues or signs that lead to it.
To further complicate this whole matter,
in all these years many people have sworn to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto.
How crazy, don't you think?
At this time it is not known if Satoshi Nakamoto is a person or is a group of people.
But no matter what the truth is,
you know for sure that he or they are millionaire geniuses nowadays.
Number 5
Human Shadow Etched in Stone
Surely you have already heard about the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs.
The first was launched on August 6 on the Japanese city of Hiroshima,
and the second was launched on August 9 on Nagasaki.
Both nuclear attacks killed tens of thousands of people.
But something that very few people know about that horrible event,
is that the power of each bomb was so brutal, that many victims simply vanished in the air,
leaving these shadows in their wake.
Over time, these shadows came to be known as "The Shadows of Hiroshima".
In case you're wondering, the real name of this phenomenon is "radioactive shadow".
It is produced in nuclear explosions by the intense burner brightness of the explosion,
causing the person or thing that disappears, leave a trace in the form of a shadow.
Although many of these shadows have faded over the years,
these photographs did remain for the story.
I mention this case, because we are talking about mysterious people who were never identified,
and sadly, the real identity of the Hiroshima shadows will be a complete mystery forever.
Number 4
Le Loyon
This is the name of a mysterious person who lived in the forest of Maules, in Switzerland.
The few people who saw him described Le Loyon as a tall person
wearing a strange cloak and a gas mask.
They also assured that although it was very scary to see him,
Le Loyon did not have an aggressive behavior.
On the rare occasions that someone encountered him,
Le Loyon just stared at him, whispered words that could not be understood,
and then walked away calmly.
It's scary, right?
In one of those many times someone took this picture in very bad quality
and decided to send it to the local newspaper to be published and alert about their presence.
Apparently, Le Loyon realized this because a few days later,
his cape and mask were found in the middle of the forest,
along with them there was a note explaining that they would never see him again.
And he was not lying!
Since that day, Le Loyon has never been seen again, and his identity remains a complete mystery.
Number 3
Jack The Ripper
-Screw you! -You will not call yourself Benny The Ripper.
Jack The Ripper, this is the name by which the most famous killer in the world was known.
In 1888, it is known that Jack The Ripper murdered five women in a London town.
The authorities knew it was him because of the way he left his victims.
Although I can not be too explicit with this point,
you can already get an idea of what he was doing with his victims just by hearing his name.
For that time, trying to decipher who Jack The Ripper really was,
was an impossible task!
Remember that there was no fingerprint technology,
let alone equipment to collect DNA samples.
So time passed, and Jack could never be found.
Turning it into the most famous serial killer in history.
Number 2
The Falling Man
Of the thousands of images and videos that September 11, 2001 left for history,
the photograph of "The Falling Man" is one of the most dramatic.
That morning, the photographer Richard Drew,
managed to capture some images that were left for the story.
The one that most traveled around the world was that of this man who could never be identified,
but who popularly came to be known as "The Falling Man".
The only hypothesis that exists about this person is that it was Jonathan Briley.
Jonathan worked in a restaurant located in the upper part of the north tower,
and was one of the victims of that attack.
His friends and family say that the man in the photo looks a lot like him.
Although it has been 17 years since that day,
we probably never know the real identity of The Falling Man.
Number 1
D.B. Cooper
This is the pseudonym used by a man who managed to steal $200,000 from the US government.
The story tells that in 1971, D.B. Cooper bought a plane ticket from Portland to Seattle.
When they went halfway, he let the captain know he had a bomb,
and if he was not given $200,000 in cash,
he would blow up the bomb with everyone in there.
How crazy, right?
When they landed in the destination city, D.B. Cooper freed the passengers
and the money was delivered to him as he had planned.
With the money in his hands, he ordered the pilot to take off again.
His plan was to throw himself from a parachute when they were already halfway. And he did!
From that day, D.B. Cooper and the money could never be traced.
Is not it amazing?
-Crap! -Drop that suitcase, Benny. You can end up in jail.
And that's all for today!
Do you still remember the question of the beginning of the video?
Well, the stage name of the killer clown was Pogo, and his real name was John Wayne Gacy.
If you would like to see the video where I talk a little more about his story,
I'll leave the link here above, okay?
