Lemminos editing skills are on fucking point, he somehow gets maps of old England and 3D animations to match perfectly together and be super immersive, giving you the whole picture.
also kinda creepy. I think it's because of the background soundtrack, the creepy pictures of the people involved, and you just imagining the murders and whatnot happening is freaking unsettling
Editing is off the charts, even if you still have top of the line computers it still takes a shit ton of time to keyframe 3D animations (plus I think he only has a gtx 980). And let's not get started with his research..
Got to hand it to Ripper. If these timings are to be believed, that guy really had Devil's own luck. There is no way that you can calculate all of these close calls to your favour.
Not to mention this was one of the densest sections of the one of the most populated cities in the world, where factory workers work all manners of hours. Its crazy that he was never properly spotted
@@holczy0 😐True. "To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Jack the Ripper." He silenced them quickly. Few if any had time to cry out. He likely had SOME knowledge of where and when the Bobbies patrolled. Whether he was a butcher or a doctor, he had skill within a trade. Smart enough to get away with multiple murders. But IF those timelines are accurate, he was lucky as well. I imagine he would have been sloppy with the early killings and improved over time. 😀Anyway, with enough practice and hard work , you can do anything you put your mind to! Say what you will about Jack the Ripper, but he had a better K/D ratio than we ever will.
@@holczy0 not really, back then you didn't even have to try to be too sneaky, it's all witness based in a sea of people and little police, there was no technology that would immediately close the book on you, and all you needed was the dark and a bit of wit.
@@ThugHunterfromIsrael and in america they will shoot you for looking any less then 100% white. I know which of the two id prefer to deal with, how can you really compare the two with everything recently happening in america like george floyd and the massive racism problem
i will say i love how into it xqc gets, he seems very genuinely intrigued by the story and not afraid to ask questions about it even if chat unjustly calls him stupid for it.
6:08 i really dont blame the 2 people here leaving the body. Its the 18 hundreds no phones no internet its a rough crime riddled neighberood and they probably see a dead person every other day. People who think now "omg what is wrong with them hoe could they not just dragged her to a doctor or something like help her" they checked on her and she was presumably dead. These people stamd up at 4 am for work amd meed to feed a family. If they get to late they get fired and the boss doesnt give a shit about them. Inwould litteraly do the same. They make like 10$ a week and what if they drag her to a hospital or a doctor they probably need to pay for her medicals too. All they really could do was that. And they tried to infrom an officer if they saw one so Stop evaluading things that happen 200 years ago like its 2021. Of course if you see an injured person now you must soneverything you can but times changed.
😁He has a strange way of saying things and asking questions...Gotta give him that. Much like Karl Pilkington, I understand what he's TRYING to say. It just comes out wrong every time. 😁
@@kiiturii Because forensics, science and studying bodies had existed before then??? Like what. Why does everyone think the 1800s were still cave man when they made a shit ton of discoveries and advancements (albeit with very low morals especially if you were poor they’d just snatch your body or overwork you).
Holy fuck, Kelly was almost a skeleton when she was found. No wonder the reports think she was killed by a devil. I thought Junko Furuta was the worst murder
@@boof-7599 Don't forgot the lazy cops. They get reports of them torturing someone and screaming from the neighbors. They go to the house, the parents open the door and get asked "Is there someone getting tortured here?". The parents lied cuz they were scared of their son cuz he had ties to the Yakuza... The cops just left instead of search the fucking house, fucking useless pieces of shit. Junko's case hurts me so much, a beautiful young girl who had a very bright future ahead of her. All ruined cuz she rejected the wrong boy.
I still consider Junko Furuta still the absolutely worst murder because despite the torture she was put through for weeks the fucking kid got away with it with a slap on the wrist.
@@threepaws1558 innocent** children and women. There are horrible children and women in the world. Like that one girl from the UK who stangled 3 bois to death when she was 8 or something.
Easily one of the best videos on Jack the Ripper. It's kind of mind-blowing how RU-vidrs like Internet Historian and LEMMiNO are outpacing even professional documentarians. Like some of these videos are superior to that of the BBC or major networks that create their own documentaries on major events. The way he sifted through all the evidence and documents and even visually re-created the city + the crime scenes for each murder. Often these kinds of videos fail at giving the viewer a proper context. LEMMiNo actually world builds instead of teaching it like bullet points on a slide (which leads to viewers feeling disconnected to the past event). I also like that he stays neutral, and presents all sides of the argument. He will set up a theory, but then give info to knock it down. Basically, he gives us all the information that is out there. I appreciate that he doesn't sensationalize things. It's a hard balance to be analytical / purely fact-based - without being boring.
The thing about mainstream documentaries is that they need to spin the story a bit to keep their audiences of multiple demographics engaged. Big companies don't share the same relationship with their viewers as independent creators, like LeMMiNo, Internet Historian, The Armchair Historian, etc., so they can't fine tune their media to their viewer base. On the other hand, most online creators acknowledge their followers at a closer and more intimate (for a lack of better term) point of view, and so know what they'd like to see better and tailor their content to the preferences of their audience.
The fact that we’ll never truly find out who Jack the Ripper really was angers me a little, because I’m really intrigued at what kind of person would be so violent
London was a melting pot of a metropolis in the 1800, where most of the world's first advances in technology were established at a massive industrial scale (steam engines, wire communication, electricity). And with large populations comes high poverty rates. Coupled with the fact that decent work was hard to come by, large companies being quite abusive to their labor forces, and the low life expectancy at the time (you'd be lucky to hit forty years old then), 19th Century London was a hailstorm of social and economical issues that could bring anyone who was desperate, depressed, or oppressed enough to go insane. Jack The Ripper's case is interesting, as his modus operandi is notably specific (prostitute women between the ages of twenty to forty, murdered in a largely similar fashion on days of no work within a certain area of Whitechapel). For me personally, the question hasn't been a matter of "how?", but rather "why?". Why such an exclusive pool of victims, and why such a manner of murder?
@@Anino_Makata I kind of assumed some form of religious zealoutry was involved. This was the country that passed a law that banned women from working in coal mines because it was "distracting them from house work and church", while the heat in the mines was seen as a spawn for sin because workers would wear very little clothing. Its not hard to imagine a doctor or a butcher seeing them as depraved and leading good men into sin. On top of that prostitutes to this day remain a group that is very much in risk of violence, due to how society treats and sees them. Its easier to get to them without arrousing too much suspicion, getting them into a semi private space etc, and its a generally decent bet this will cause a lot less outrage and hard work in preventing further murders than murdering someone at albeit slightly higher social status.
If anyone was wondering, you can find photos of the crime scene of Mary Jane Kelly online, though I advise, if you have a weak stomach, not to look it up, truly horrible things happened to that woman
Even in the modern day, you can pretty easily get away with murder by just driving the next town over and stabbing a completely random person you've never seen before. There are ways you could get caught, but random killings of people you're completely unaffiliated with in any way are insanely difficult to solve. The fact that it doesn't happen more often is a testament to how truly insane and deeply disturbed down to the very core someone has to be to actually do that.
If any of you are on desktop you can open a new tab and play the video on mute while watching xQcs reaction so that lemmino still gets the views. Pagman
13:05 - That’s a crazy infant mortality rate. 3 of her 7 kids died before their first b’day. Another died at 1 y/o. The fifth at 12. Her husband died at 42, two years before she was brutally murdered and left her 15 y/o daughter & 8 y/o son orphaned. This is why I think people who want to go back in time and live in different eras are stupid. Like bro, this is how bad shit was just 140 years ago. And this chick’s two remaining kids both still had to live though WW1 and WW2.
They really are, even when they imagine themselves being royalty or whatever, antibiotics werent in wide spread use until 1940s and surgeons and doctors didnt figure out washing your hands is a relevant thing until like 1870s. Especially when women do it. Even as royalty in the 1860s as a woman you were flipping coins on if youre gonna survive the a hit of the seasonal flu nevermind the dumb amount of women that died after childbirth because doctors werent washing their hands and yeeting all kinds of fucked up bacteria into womens bodies during labour, if you survived labour that is.
what do you mean? In the sense that people are murderers or act like ones? Well no, no one knew who Jack the Ripper was or even have a broad description of him until later on, and even when they got one, it was a really really common one, middle aged man, rather short and with a moustache (if I remember correctly, but the moustache might not have been a part of the descriprion), that's basically most men at the time lol.
The Mary Jane Kelly murder is the only crime scene photo or illustration I’ve seen from the case. Hearing about it and the other murders pales when you actually see it.
It’s crazy how people like this have their names almost immortalized makes me believe that this is part of the reason psychopathic killers do what they do.
what makes everything worse is that their victims are also immortalized in history just because of the fashion that they were killed in, that sounds so horrific.
"How did they know the time" well, you see, when someone is no longer alive their body no longer produces heat. By taking into account the temperature of the surrounding area and how much the body had cooled down by the time they found the body, they're able to make a rough estimate of the time of death. Different things can interfere with this method of course, but I think it's a fairly accurate method
Looking at some of the names and birth/death dates of the children, I think it’s very terrifying to know that it’s possible the children’s great grandchildren could still be around to this day. Imagine how awful that must be knowing that you’re family name was involved in one of the most horrific murder cases in history.
I wouldn't say it's awful as it happened in the 1800's. So it is hard to feel really sympathetic for a great great grandparent who you never knew and it is more interesting that your family was involved in the most famous murderers ever. It's not like Jack the ripper is still out there specifically hunting them.
xQc: "Why did they walk, did they not have bikes?" chat: "in 1888, No LOL" xQc: "How did they know the time" also chat: "pocket watches of course, its not the 1400's"
@@nashviper4586 in the video, some of the bodies would be discovered and the witness would just dip without telling an officer. I'm guessing michael177 is referring to chat freaking out when this was such a different time period & chat is just expecting the witness to whip out an iphone xs max and call the cops..
@@nashviper4586 They can only think with a 21st century, in fact let me rephrase that, a 21 century american perspective. I can already imagine a sizeable chunk of the chat cant imagine how narrow and crowded east end London streets were in the late victorian age
@@Bumblebee647 really? I actively try to keep my gaze away from the dumpster fire that is chat, and whenever I watch on twitch I just completely close it
@@ezesjack5219I don't think it was impressive to get away with something like that in 1890s (1) there was no forensic technological advancement poor lads couldn't even figure out the timings of most murders. (2) The victims were prostitues they are the easiest target for any killer One reason a serial killer might target prostitutes? Because he believes the police won’t look as hard for a missing sex worker as they will for a more “respectable” victim and i think it was true even in this case. (3) London had millions of people back then with hundreds of thousands being undocumented it was easy to disappear like a grain in sand desert .
He said its to help him from having really dry eyes when he wakes up from a short sleep, I experience the same thing when i wake up w.o having complete sleep cycle my eyes feel like its burning
Chat is so stupid. Socialist means socialism. 17:49 People in chat are making it seem like others are stupid for correctly attributing the socialist club with socialism instead of a social club. They're all so confidently wrong and smug about it.
Not so fun fact: there are crime scene photos of the body of Mary Jane Kelly, which also happens to be the most brutal of the murders. I was searching up more on wikipedia and it had the picture. Anyways, i'm not sleeping for a week.
people act like jack the ripper is something all schools learn, thats not the case, i mean if you are not British how are you supposed to know unless the internet, no one knows who tf jack the ripper is where im from, probably some UK veggies trash talking
I always find it funny that someone in chat says that he'll solve the mystery by himself when minutes earlier, chat was cooming bc of a woman from 80s lmao
For people who find "Jack the ripper" impressive for pulling this off or say he was genius or something don't think it was impressive to get away with something like that in 1890s (1) there was no forensic technological advancement poor lads couldn't even figure out the timings of most murders. (2) The victims were prostitues they are the easiest target for any killer One reason a serial killer might target prostitutes?

I watched this video many times, I put it just to sleep.. There's something about this video, the atmosphere it takes you into, the music, the chat. I don't know... It's great.
Chat thinking bikes weren't invented in 1880... These people were just too poor to have them, hence why getting to work is more important than notifying the cops of a dead body.
😐I'm about 3 minutes in and all I can think of is how fucking rough it was to live in London circa 1888. If they would have spawned 100 years later, they'd be watching Saturday morning cartoons in the 1980s and... not getting slaughtered by the ripper.
A social club is usually a place laborers go after work to enjoy some alcohol amongst their own rowdy kind. Pubs in that century were trying to turn a new leaf and be more respectful and accommodating to upper walks of life so social clubs were a place lower class people could go to enjoy some beer and have a good and loud time.
31:32 DNA wasn't really put to use case-wise until 1985, for two rapes and murders that happened. Detectives believed that due to similarities in the killings that one person was responsible for both and they found the perpetrator through finger printing. DNA was however, recognized as a thing in the 19th century but it's uses were unknown among the justice system.
i would say that its charles and the other witness was either his helper, or charless convinced him(probably the 2nd option) to go to work, and search for a police officer on the way, possibly knowing there isnt going to be any
wait francis is pretty explainable too, coz he knew anatomy, hated woman, and departed the UK to never come back, as he was charged there. The only thing that isnt certain is his location and the fact that the story of body parts might be fabricated
X should get paid by parents, judging by the chat it seems everybody is about 8-12, some nanny's struggle to look after 3 or 4 kids, but x can handle 100k
Idk how this guy never gets copyright claimed or striked he doesn't transform the content or really reacts to the video he just talks to chat and sometimes says something but it's always stupid like " how did they tell the time"
In those days you were one or two meals from starving to death. Most people were completely replaceable by waves of thousands of people moving into the cities from the countryside You missed a shift even by 10 minutes and you werent payed at all. The people were paid by output not with a fixed salary. And if you were late and knowing you wont be paid refused to work. Tough luck, we have people that can replace you. Have fun starving in the streets
