Fun fact during the bombing in WW2 my grandparents were in a bomb shelter and my grandmother was pregnant with my mother and she needed to go to the toilet, she would not go to the one in the shelter so she made my grandfather take her home and while they were there the shelter took a direct hit and everyone in it was killed, so I'm only here cause my gran needed a pee
@@sissysovereign1294 from what I managed to find out a lot of WW2 shelters were made to withstand the shrapnel and explosion of a nearby bomb going off, but not one directly hitting it. they made do with what they had at the time.
Those weren't nurses. They were wardens. Wardens one more brutal than the other. Most of these women were convicted for heinous crimes at the Nürnberg trials.
@@eadweard. That was the job they were hired for. They did however take on the role of warden/butcher as soon as they were able to. Not to mention alot of these women were promoted to said position.
Yeah, that makes it way worse, normal Wehrmacht nurses, while on the "bad team" didnt usually commit any war crimes, but seeing SS officers and female Auschwitz staff "Party" and relax like that while they where starving people is just vile
There is a Polish mini series called Two Eagles House from 2023 depicting life of 2 family lines from before world war II until 1980s-1990s. Part of it was happening in the camp and there is even one very disturbing scene where Wermacht soldiers and wardens do a private party with a projector and pictures of the prisoners from the camp, telling jokes about them and laughing while people in the pictures look basically already dead because of being tortured by Nazis. Although most of the characters in this series are fictional the events are real. It's worth watching.
What pisses me off about the Harrison story is that he survived that horrible trauma, listening to the sharks rip apart his dead friends while he waited for the oxygen to run out........and his community turned his back on him. they say he is an evil witch, black magic, voodoo, all that, because he survived that. Not that an air pocket formed. He is an evil sorcerer and his community actively hates him.
Okay that is just god-awful.. WHY IS THIS “This man or woman survived? He/She must be an Evil Witch and a Performer of Black Magic!” BULLSH** STILL A THING.
@jtsmith1817 I mean, that's religion for you. Christianity, Islam, Judaism.......if you're suffering in life it's cuz you sinned and deserved it, if you're doing great in life you made a deal with the devil. Make it make sense. The only religion I can think of off the top of my head that isn't like that is Buddhism.😊
If you want to know more about the even more flucked up history about Elena, Caitlin Doughty did an excellent video on her really sad story. "Iconic Corpse: Elena de Hoyos & Carl Tanzler". Basically, he got away with it with no consequence and everyone was like, "Oh, how romantic!". She rebuffed him in life, and in death he decided, "Well, she can't say no now!"
Kanon69 actually made a song based on Tanzler's case called "The Necro's bride" and funnily enough, its how I ended up searching up that messed up dude.
The guy stuck at the bottom of the ocean had so much worse to deal with then just being stuck; it was dark, it was extremely cold, and he could hear sharks swimming through the boat and eating the dead, being afraid they would come for him next. Also virtually no food and drinking water.
That man trapped in an air pocket looked death in the eyes and did not blink. He straight up decided to dedicate a life to diving. The b@lls this man has is astronomical. Not to mention his faith is immense. I wonder if he ends up deciding to become a record breaking diver on purpose
Aki, I just wanted to point out in that pic where the politician photographed his death, the 2 men in the background are both gang members. If I'm remembering correctly, they were sent to kill that man cause their gang was one of many he was directly targeting to stop. One was meant for lookout while the other was meant to commit the shooting. Both were taken to jail and convicted in the end but not a single drop of remorse. Oh and I have known about the mummy story for a long time. He had a dream and took it so literal that he desecrated a young girl's grave. He saw that young girl come into his clinic and found out she had tuberculosis and created this nasty obsession that lasted even after her death. I believe her older sister is the one who discovered her body was in his house. This is one crazy world. It amazes me how crazy people can actually get.
@OldDudeAndy yeah he had figured out how to get into her tomb & slept there until the family found out, thats when he decided to take her. It's a wild story. So is thr one of the guy who kept stealing various bodies & dressing them up. I want to say it was in Russia. Similar time period if I'm not wrong.
My dad got diagnosed with Alzheimers when I was just 17. He died when I was 23. Throughout the years, I saw how the man I once knew and loved, completely disappear. I saw his struggles and his defeats. It is such a scary thing to witness and it such a scary thing for the person who has it to live through
Alzheimer is like seeing the person you used to know fade into an empty husk. And I think it's one of the worst things to experience if it's someone close or someone you know very well. My grandma had it and just couldn't handle her empty eyes looking at me like I was just a stranger. It broke me. My condolences to you and your family
@@tamyahgalentine9734 A disorder that most often targets the elderly, though people as young as 30 has been diagnosed with it. It attacks the brain and takes away your memories. I believe Akira even explained that in the video
@@pumpkinpatch2203 To explain it a bit more specifically for other people who don't know what it is, Alzheimer's is where parts of the brain are slowly "dying" or losing it's function. Id the brain shuts down bit by bit, you lose the ability to speak, use your limbs, express and feel emotions and eventually, you stop being alive, literally. It depends per person how aggressive it is and how fast it progresses, but it's truly a disease. So I wouldn't say it's just a disorder. Parts of your brain are not able to send, receive and process any electric signals that they're getting from the body itself. The worst part indeed is, that there are quite a lot of cases where people under 50 are being diagnosed with Alzheimer. I think I saw a man in his 40's walk around in the same ward (sorry, idk which term I should use nor is applicable) as my grandma was in. We often get commercials about the special funding organisation that is asking for donations to help and fund the research for finding a cure. And every time it appears, there's a small story told by family and loved ones about how they saw their lover/sibling/parent change within a few years. Some take a longer time but others fade within months. It's heartbreaking. Btw, I hope I didn't come off as snotty. Just wanted to explain in depth what it is to the other person, though I am not a pro at all.
Alzheimers runs in my family (my grandma already has serious signs of it), and I am terrified of one day getting it. I'm an artist and musician, and the thought of completely forgetting my friends, my family, my hobbies, and how to function as a human being is so scary.
I'm sorry to say this but yes, Alzheimer's is hereditary and it could be triggered when you're in your middle age (30-ish and so on). My professor taught us that young people with this inherited genes should do some cognitive activities so that it slows down the brain's deterioration process. I understand that it's scary and I hope that your friends and family will give you love and support. (Giving you hugs with consent!)
Runs in my family too. I work in medical though, and I say Alzheimer’s is pretty common and all old people get some forms of memory loss. Their families find some way around it, or get a caretaker. Don’t worry too much about it.
You have to keep the brain active so it doesn't get as bad. Like puzzles, drawing, coloring, discussing memories everyday, etc. It hits everyone differently. And be careful when you joke, lie, or exaggerate around them because they will believe that you're being serious when that memory pops up.
William was a brave, kind soul to document his illness in such a way. I lost my grandfather to dementia and I'm an artist. That series of images has haunted me for a decade and a half, because I can vividly imagine how they were made.
4:03 I’m especially unnerved by this image not only because of their atrocities but also because history is literally repeating itself as we speak. I have seen many horrific photos and videos of soldiers today who are gleeful in the suffering that they are causing.
@@eadweard.then you must be blind. Because even holocaust survivors are comparing it to the hell they had to endure. I’ve seen so many pictures of bodies burnt to a crisp, torn apart, decaying in the streets….the last one that scarred me is a baby with no head and you’re telling that’s not as atrocious? Just because it’s different kind of hell?
Alzheimer’s is caused by certain “tangles” forming in the brain (to put it simply). It can happen even to people in their 30s, but much older usually. They’re working on treatments thank god. Too late for everyone in my family but gives hope.
i deadass thought those leprosy photos depicted rotting corpses... im so sorry for the people who have this condition and have to live knowing this is how people who are uneducated perceive them.
In Hawaii leprosy was also thought to be contagious and at its peak about 1,200 men, women, and children were exiled to Kalaupapa Peninsula. This was not lifted until 1969z
It was found to not be highly contagious, but was found to be spread through prolonged close contact with an untreated individual though nose and mouth droplets. The exile was lifted when they acquired new drug therapies after WWII, but many of the patients decided to continue to live their lives in Kalaupapa. It's so sad that so many were exiled to suffer in that way!
I've seen some deep dives on the last one, and it's absolutely morbid and horrifying. The dude was the one who offered to pay for the funeral and the mausoleum and deliberately did so in order to have easy access to the body and to visit every night. The family just thought it was an act of good will. He had stolen the corpse approximately 7 years prior to when his acts were finally discovered, and he didn't do any time for it because the statute of limitations ended. She ended up buried in an unmarked grave so that no one could tamper with her remains again (especially that dude). It's absolutely fucked up.
@@LeonYakuro I'd imagine they were photographs and recordings taken as part of documenting the crime scene rather than someone doing it for the heck of it. The images taken were very much real, though.
about the air-pocket survivor, how did the rescue diver not shat his diving suit when out of nowhere a hand is sticking out in the water inside a shipwreck which may not have survivors trying to grab him, the diver must have seen too much in his job.
he might have a strong belief (i think) to hope for a miracle that someone is still alive somehow if i dont have a strong belief, i would shat my pants also
@@HarrysDogmalaysiaeven without religious beliefs. Rescuers always always keep in mind that a survivor could be there no matter what. It is always a possibility because humans are hardier than we think.
As a German, who got taught extensively about our history in school every. Single. Year. I immediately knew what that second photo at around 4:00 was. Even in b/w with very little telling insignia visible, I immediately recognized those uniforms.
Firstly, I've done an abnormal amount of studying of the Holocaust (Literally went through like 2 courses in school, got curious about the subject and was in a one act play for a competition involving an actual case, that got second place) and it still disturbs me, because N@zis were human, just as human as you and me. Unfortunately they were basically brainwashed into believing what they were doing was right, and we see that now. It's even more disturbing seeing them, all in probably their 30s and maybe early 40s, just hanging around like it's a chillax day on the college campus when it was nothing of the sort. Secondly, for the last photo-- Is there such a thing as a restraining order for your deceased loved ones? Like... I'm sure that she would have been like 'can I please have this because this creepy Carl guy keeps eyeing me up' Is that a thing? I'm not a lawyer so Idk
I'm sorry but I can't agree that nazis especially SS were completely brainwashed. It's sound like an excuse as if it wasn't their fault. Some of them were monsters. Even wehrmacht didn't agree with what they were doing. (Sorry for being the pain in the ass, I'm polish so ww2 is an important topic for me)
@@trainingbrartist7150 I don't really pay much attention to current events (It stresses me out super bad, sorry) But there are maybe a couple similarities? It just really sucks right now.
The effect you describe is why I liked the tv adaptation of Man In The High Castle so much. It really captured the feeling of "good" man doing the "right thing" because he's been convinced it IS the right thing, but is deluding himself. There are some elements that are a bit too technical for me, and I'm not big on the novel's style, but I do find this stuff super important and compelling because it helps us remember that this could easily be repeated.
That last photo reminded me of a conversation I had with my spouse about how in certain cultures and time periods a woman's body was kept from all male contact and only female family members had access to her. Keeping guard of her remains until they had hit a suitable stage in decomposition for burial. Carl is the *PERFECT* example as to why. That poor woman and her corpse deserved none of that. What a sicko...
The Harrison Okene story is even more horrifying as there were sharks roaming the sunk boat and he could hear them thrashing about eating his crewmates. All the while he was hiding in the pitch dark There some great documentaries on RU-vid. I had serious nightmares after hearing his story.
I didn't think about it until I heard he last one and I feel weird for saying this, but my favorite "photos with disturbing backstorys" is he one where the guy had house of dolls but it turned out he was getting human corpses and making them into dolls.
@@HYPERxSONICxFANx2012 a channel called Mr. nightmare covered it briefly in "3 photos with really creepy backstories" but I'm sure if you search he name Anatoly Moskvin you'll find more stuff.
Ah I know who you're talking about! I forgot his name, but I believe this took place in Russia during the mid/late 2000s. The scariest part that stuck out to me the most wasn't even the photos of the girls, but that he genuinely believed in his mind that he was doing these girls a favor by digging them up and bringing them home with him. He would even throw birthday parties for them and give them presents as if they were still alive. There's no way his parents didn't see anything off when seeing this collection of dolls. One look at them, and you could immediately tell that something wasn't right about them.
14:20 I remember learning about this case from a Mr. Ballen video, but it was so disturbing I just assumed it was fake and thought it was hilarious that so many people believed something that crazy….until I slowly started seeing other RU-vidrs I already followed talking about it and finally decided to research it myself…human beings can be so horrifying sometimes.
Hi Aki! Based on what I read on Carl Tanzler when I made research on the subject decades ago. The reason why he exhumed Maria Elena is because he was seeking a way to resurect her. He tough that he could find a solution due to his expertise in electrical work (which helped him during his formation for his medical work of radiology technician).
They weren't wardens, they were Female concentration camp guards, who often tortured innocent people. The Artist with Dementia was a fascinating story. Aki, this video was well done. Say Hi to Joey, I just subscribed to his channel.
Exactly. I don't think they felt like it was the end of the world. Most of the people from that time had way more hardships in their regular lives than most people today. It was a generation of survivors.
If anyone else is disgusted by that last one, go watch Sam O'Nella's video on it titled "Dead body hijinks (part 2)". The humor of the video will ease the tension and fear you've obtained throughout this video and you'll be able to sleep, guaranteed. Plus his recounting of the tale (around minute 2:55) offers more details that are quite funny when he tells it.
Just gonna add, leprasy is contagious HOWEVER it’s only contagious from mucus from the nose, it usually has to go into your own oriphases or an open wound
God the picture of Travis is still heartbreaking. His face was the EXACT moment she pulled out the knife. He was confused, scared, and betrayed. It’s awful.
On the topic of leprosy not being contagious... not through casual contact, but prolonged contact will spread it. So it's not exactly unfair to ostracize people with a deadly untreatable disease that eventually DOES spread to people around them.
interviews with Jodi Arias showed that she clearly had no remorse for what she did. Her trial was broadcasted live on US tv. She kept changing her story as to how the victim was killed. She made claims that a group of men killed the victim with no evidence to backup her claims. She also said she shouldn't get the death penalty because she can startup book club groups in prison to help other inmates or some stupid shit like that. It was all about how she was the real victim, not the man she murdered.
Utermolhen's later art is unsettling and yet beautiful especially the portrait series I think blind dweller did a video about him (His art videos are amazing he even did a video about manga artist shintaro kago)
The reason he didn't think about not robbing a grave is because he is insane. One thing about true crime is to the sane and/or lawful person many acts of criminals are just not relatable or could be understood because we just don't think that way. That story about the man surviving the tug crash was really inspiring. And to find out that he became I deep sea diver after makes me think that maybe he wanted to be able to potentially help others. I remember watching the Jodie Aries trail and yes she was one cold person that just would give you chills, stalkers are no joke.
The last one literally reminds me of the disturbing movie Nekromantik, the only thing is that the movie goes beyond more than what that guy did to the corpse
small facts for leprosy: leprosy had spread into hawai'i from china (it was named "ma'i pākē which means "china sickness" by native hawaiians) and spread to many hawaiians. due to the lack of a cure, the people afflicted with leprosy were all taken to molokai and put on kalaupapa. kalaupapa was the leprosy colony. if you were found with leprosy on hawai'i, you were forced to go there.
There is music that was composed to represent what Alzheimer’s felt like. Its really long to go through all the parts. It fucks with your brain listening to it. I know wendigoon did a video on it if anyone was interested.
This was a cool video. Very interesting and enlightening. Definitely not one of your usual topics, but honestly it was great. You could do one a week like this and I'd watch them all.
Just on the Nazi pic it wasn't just Jewish people in the camps or that were targeted, yes it was the largest group, but so were homosexuals, gypsies, the disabled, and any other races or religions the Third Reich found inferior.
Fun fact: Wanted to share when I saw Leprosy, that there is an Island in the Philippinrs in Palawan, where they sent people with Leprosy (Culion Island). Fear that is was contagious they even have their own form of currency for it to not spread out. Families would essentially abandon their loved ones and very few were able to reconnect.
Here's another for you! The pictures and drawings of Jack The Ripper's victims. Seeing how much he got glamourized in media, is easy to forget how many and how brutal were his actual killings.
the one about the man stuck at on the ocean floor made me think of made in abyss and how once you go past a certain depth getting back up doesn't come without certain backlash
My great grandfather died from Alzheimer’s on July 3rd, 2018 at 11:30 PM. Alzheimer’s is an awful illness, my great grandfather was diagnosed with it in 2009, he was put into a nursing home in 2011 when he started having trouble remembering how to get around his own house. My Great Grandma lived in the house afterwards until 2013 when she went to the same nursing home as her husband. Alzheimer’s can also be an illness that acts insanely fast and can destroy your mind and sense of consciousness in a matter of a couple of years, My great grandfather’s Alzheimer’s was so bad he couldnt even remember his own wife and daughters after a mere 3 years, he passed away peacefully at 98 years old on July 3rd, 2018 right as the fireworks set off for the 4th of July
Hey aki, I don’t usually comment but I just wanna say I have nothing but respect for you for having to go through the horrendous research of these crazy events I did research on the nazis and slavery and it has made me look at life much more differently than before
Aki I love your videos. I’m Nigerian mix with other ethnicities. Nigerians are strong like warriors. Aki you make my day with watching you’re content over the year to the present day even I have my bad days and good days. ❤
Most nazi soldiers didn't know about the exterminations or any of the atrocities going on. Just doing their job, being fed lies. Many didn't even see any of the speeches. I'm not advocating for the nazis, war is war and nothing about it is good. They were on the side of attempted world domination. But a lot of them shouldn't be hated for the hellish things done by the minority. I've heard MANY stories of soldiers, either during or after the war, learning about what was going on that they didn't know about that defected or couldn't take it and fell into insanity or killed themselves. The good ones didn't know or switched sides, risking themselves and their families to do so. Oppenheimer switched sides. Most of the military technology advances we achieved in the last half of our time in the war was thanks to, at least in part, to nazi defectors. NASA had former nazis working for and helping them in the early years of NASA being a thing.
The interesting thing with nazis is that the majority didn't even know about the camps... There were pictures where nazis saw pictures from camps, and a lot were in shock... Maybe those were oblivious? Hell, not everyone was bad either... Some were just ordinary people doing ordinarily jobs, and some shouldn't be allowed in between the pearly gates...
It was discovered a few years ago that alzheimers isnt a neurological disease, but an auto immune system issue, basically the immune system starts attacking the brain. While we still dont know how to fix this, the fact we know the true cause means its only a matter of time before we do
and it is now 5am… I have to go to bed… my children’s father just died at the age of only 35 of a massive heart attack out of no where and I am honestly more scared that none of these videos scare me at all, after I went through that and our 3 children unfortunately having to be there to witness it! I feel like things you see “happening to other people” will terrify you, until something absolutely horrific happens to you, yourself. And then, it takes a LOT to scare you anymore
i haven't watched you in a while, was expecting some kind of drama or commentery since that's all that pops up in my feed was jumpscared with creepy stuff left satisfied and nostalgic though yes, wtf to half of them, my reagards to the other half and congrats on the career to the depth guy have a good dight
hey aki , i just started editing and stuff for my job and omgg , thank you for doing this stuff for FREE on youtube , you all youtubers dont get enough credit
The picture of the Brits in the air raid shelter is typical of the 'blitz spirit' of the time. As a kid in 1970's Glasgow i asked my Dad why they built rows of tenemant housing with gaps. I still remember the horror i felt when he told me the spaces were bombed houses. If the German's hqd any bombs left after hitting Clydeside they would drop them into Glasgow on the flight back.
Last guy.... he was the doctor treating her and was obsessed and went mad.... he initially believed that he could bring her back to life. It's very twisted. Kinda reminds me of the polish guy with the house full of corpses he turned into dolls.
my grandmother died from Alzheimer's during the start of the pandemic, so i wasnt even allowed to see her before she passed. the memory loss is very saddening to watch.
I love the educational videos you make Aki, and reading all the bonus facts by everyone in the comments!!! You always find some pretty interesting stuff I wouldn't really find on my own.
I researched the case of Travis Alexander after this video and please be fucking careful. I accidentally ran across autopsy photos and looked into the eyes of a dead man by accident. Be careful when researching true crime cases. I'm absolutely shocked and horrified and very upset. I don't know what to feel. Just warning everyone, please be careful
It's true that world war 2 left a major impact, especially with billions of loses. Some of the elderly could still remember the events. May those who lost their lives in the war rest in peace. You will always be remembered
Hello Aki, Since yesterday night there is a terrorist war going on in my country Ecuador, we are being kidnapped, bombed and killed, they are executing people publicly and recording themselves as they shoot military men and policemen They have declared they will not stop killing until they get what they want. I myself almost got killed yesterday as i witnessed a trafficker shoot two policemen. They have taken over our news stations as well as they record themselves threaten innocent people with guns. Please help spread awareness, we need help.
I do wanna point out that, technically speaking, leprosy (or hansens disease) is a containgen, however it is super rare (in todays terms), currently we're not 100% certain how ppl originally get it, but we do know that you'd need at least 1-2 months of constant interaction with someone who originally have it untreated for you to get it. at the moment, its known to be spread through mucus/spit droplets in the air, but like, constantly. it's usually found in ppl with poor immune systems, poor areas, and poor sanitation. its still around today, just not very common, but asia and africa are the big ones that have the most cases. America has about 100 a year, we've found that its contracted from the 9 banded armadillo here in the states, however we're not sure how it gets passed from armadillo to human. also fun fact its thought that 95% of the worlds population is immune to the bacteria that causes leprosy. (probably cause after 2-3 generations it kinda dies off so our ancestors gave us immunity)
Bro, while I'm watching this, I have my Bluetooth headphones on, and suddenly Aki's voice got quieter, before the video paused and the voice of a man speaking in idk what language came in through them, I turned them off immediately, I'm home alone, holy shit what a shitty timing.
So the artist's painting/drawings of himself...the music you used in the background...that was "Everywhere at the End of Time" right? The music project about the progression of Alzheimer's...I can't listen to it without crying. I've never made it past maybe 20 minutes...I just...can't. It brings up a lot of fear for me, fear for my parents...what if they forget me... It's just so sad and heartbreaking.
15:22 he bought it jewellery and people suspected him for this as he wasn’t in a relationship. He embalmed her and would dance with her, he was caught by a little boy seeing him through a window dancing with her corpse
