No, he’s dumb enough to think he can sense people too. He just can’t. When I was a Ranger, we used to practice sentry removal techniques, and early in training there’s a sizable number of people who believe that nonsense. It gets proven over and over that nobody has that sense, and avoiding looking makes no difference. People can hear or smell clues and become alert, sometimes without knowing what clue they had. But no, people aren’t psychic, just superstitious.
@@dondada6602 they were saying that the intruder normally turns his victims into stuffed human dolls, but he spared this one out of respect because of how focused he was in studying.
No, the intruder didn’t have mad respect for how focused the kid was, he wasn’t there to kill anyone. Period. If he was a killer, he would have killed him eventully. Nothing to do with respect.
I guess the stranger after 2 hours was like: “Alright, I just wasted 2 hours of my life waiting for this kid to look at me for me to attack him… you know, I’m outta here”
I met a lady several years ago and I happened to notice she had these big linear scars on her scalp. One day I asked her about it. She told me that one night years earlier she woke up to a terrible headache. She stumbled into the bathroom and caught sight of herself in the mirror covered in blood but couldn't make sense of it. The cops say someone came into the home and whacked her 6 times with an axe. But nothing was stolen, she wasn't sexually assaulted, and her grandmother was left unharmed and heard nothing. They never caught the person responsible. I can't imagine what a nightmare it must be to have someone try to kill you, but have no clue who it was. And have no one ever caught for it
Naaah she must have went into a surprise coma or something during the night cause how tf do you get wacked in the head with an axe 6 times and not wake up
True but I imagine that if the kid had looked, he would have been killed. So maybe it was better for him not to have looked. But in any case remember to lock your doors when you're alone
So many lessons here: The importance of locking up. I don't sit with my back to the door, especially when alone if it can be avoided. Noise-canceling headphones should be used with a lot of caution, in particular when outdoors. I don't care for them, I prefer to be present in my surroundings as one can never be too vigilant.
Well, the intruder stood there for two hours and the mud on his feet dried or he retraced his steps and backed out just to scare them even more! Lucky kid, creepy story. As always, one of the best storytellers out there.
One time I was home alone doing exactly this, writing a paper. My desk faced away from my door, and it hadn’t bothered me before. This day though, I was feeling really strange and was hyper aware of my back to the open door. While writing I heard a loud noise, like something falling from a shelf. I immediately jumped up and began to search my house, checking doors and windows as I went. I heard creaks from the floor, but when I went to look nothing was there. There was no one and I couldn’t find whatever had fallen. It freaked me out, and I ended up rearranged half my room so I could see the door.
I was 13 years old and a stranger woke me with his hand in my face. I used to sleep in complete darkness. Up to this day, I cannot sleep in the dark and I am 53 years old. Edit: No, the person was not caught. I only saw his shadow/silhouette and nobody believed me at first that someone was inside the house. My grandmother was the only person in that area of the house and she got to my room and I pulled her into my room, closed the door and put a chair to hold the door closed. We spent 3 hours waiting for daylight and she only believed me when I opened the door and we went to her room and it was a big mess. The thieve registered everything while we were in my room.

@axxomovies-he6zi Exactly. What better way to terrorize someone than to make them think you watched them for 2 hours. Anyone crazy enough to have actually stood there for 2 hours probably would have killed him.

Dude, I had something like this happen to me. It was the 70s. I was 8 or 9 at the time. It was just me and my mom. I woke up to a man trying to pry my window open. I was so terrified I couldn't scream out. I rolled againt the wall out of his view and after a while he gave up and left. Not even a week later I was on a field trip with an after school program. We were at a local park when one of the girls decided she wanted to go home and ran off before the adults could stop her. She was found assaulted and dead in a creek near the park. She lived behind me on the same block. Turns out the guy who did it also lived on the same block as we did. I'm pretty sure it was the same guy who was trying to get in my bedroom window. I've always wondered if I had been able to scream that night and the police had caught him. Would the girl he killed still be alive?
Oh Honies! How terrifying! You could not have stopped what happened. It's called survivors guilt 😔 Big hug Honey. I saw almost the same thing but my window was too high for a human to reach unaided!
Same. Saved up for AirPods for a couple of reasons. I leave one out so that I can hear while walking or while inside. Saw someone get hit by a bus because they were way into their device. I don’t have a pet anymore so I don’t have my “alarm.” He was super skittish so any time someone came in, he’d freak. Nothing else. Just people.
@@alisonj1384 - when I was in high school many many years ago, the Walkman cassette player was the fad of the time, it came out a few years earlier and a lot of kids had one. This one kid Gary had a walkman and always had his headphones on whenever he wasnt in class. he would listen to music all of the time, he loved his Walkman and didnt go anywhere without it. Gary was a quiet cool kid and everyone who knew gary, liked him. Gary really enjoyed his music, I dont think I ever seen him without his headphones on, he always listening to music. One day during school, a group of about 5 were going to Frank's house for lunch, it was only a 7 minute walk to Franks house from school. The school was on the corner of canyon & wood rd. As we were leaving school and getting ready to cross wood road, a van was coming from the left, we seen the van and stopped but Gary kept walking, he never looked and we yelled for him to stop but he couldn't hear us, the mirror of the van hit Gary in the head at 45 mph, killed him instantly. There was a big puddle of brain matter in the street where he died. Its something you never forget. It's one of the reasons why I never wear headphones, I like to hear everything that is happening around me. NOTE: all names were changed, but unfortunately it really happened in front of the school.
@@msxmargo - I would guess he had the ones that completely covered your ears. that was the norm for people with home stereos. back than the jack alone is the size of a earpod
And my dad really asked me why I lock my door every night. I tell him because of intruders, then he looks at me and just said “ nothing will happen” even though someone literally stole his car a couple months ago. He also said how will firefighters get to you, like I literally have a window I can climb out of, and my room is on the ground, all I have to do it cut the insect net thing.
wtf is the point of not locking it I never understand people who don't. It's literally 2 seconds out of your day to prevent possibly losing all of your possessions
What the great thing about animals, especially dogs, is that they alert you when something is out of place or not right. Always act when their behavior clues you in something is not right.
I have three inside, too. One Rottie, One Shih Tzu, and a Malti-poo. The Rott and Malti would attack--one hits high and the other hits low.....meanwhile, the Shih tzu is too prissy and would run to hide...lol
I ALWAYS lock my doors due to past trauma. Might not keep us safe but you feel secure enough to go to sleep. Sleeping is a very vulnerable place where you trust enough to let ypur guards down. When it's violated its hard to ever feel safe again!
While I am attending an online class or playing a game while home alone I always keep the volume down so I can be aware of my surroundings. Being completely unaware of your surroundings is the exact reason why most robbery happens.
A lady my wife worked with, had young children. The lady and her husband wanted to go out for the evening till the next morning, so she had a young teenage girl come over and babysit. I believe the girl was a family, this was years ago not sure on that. The young girl came over, they gave her the bedtimes and money for pizzas, told her she could sleep in their bed they had a TV in there. Evening rolled on, the babysitter and kids ate pizza and she got them ready for bed. After getting the kids settled, she went into the parents room and turned on the TV and sat on the edge of the bed. It was a fairly good size room and thet had a chair in the corner, well sitting in the chair was what she thought was a clown dummy. After a while the parents called the house phone checking up, ( this was 20+ years ago) she went and answered. As they was talking and asking how things were going, she said everything is fine, kids are being good. Then she asked if she could throw a sheet over the clown dummy sitting in the chair, it was creeping her out. The parents told her to get the kids and get out of the house. They called the cops and the cops arrested the guy. He apparently had some real bad mental issues and was known to do messed up things. I remember when my wife came home from work and was telling me this happened, I honestly thought she was messing with me, till I met her for lunch one day and the lady told me herself. If she was acting or lying, she was damn good. She had this just terrified look to her face, she was shaking about it. I know that would just mess me up in the head, that poor babysitter was, in a bad way.
It was really the spirit of his teacher time traveling and checking up on him to be sure he wasn't lying about studying. "Look at me" is all she ever says to him in class because he's always zoned out and she feels like he needs to be jumpstarted all the time, so to speak. He never acts like he's listening. That's one scary teacher trying to cut back on classroom drama. I was a teacher. I should know.LOL
Ah! I see what you mean. One time I saw my best friend, Henry, stand in the doorway of the bathroom to which my little cousin was terrified. Henry is shy, and it made him sad. I don't know what happened to my little cousin, but it's alright, because Henry is better company anyways.
It was the ghost of his teacher’s teacher’s teacher who wanted to make sure he was doing his work. The muddy footprints were there to make sure that the family was observant and not ignorant.
A lot of questions on if the intruder didn’t leave any footprints indicating he left the house, then where could he be? My theory is the intruder took his shoes off after he went in so it wouldn’t give away his point of exit. Just a thought
It also shows how the brain becomes engaged in a task like playing a video game eith a head set, you are concenting on the screan and emursed in the ambience of the sounds through the head set. Powerful
This reminds me of a story of a father who left his front door unlocked and busy working on something and lucky the father glanced over his shoulder and caught a man holding his little child in his arms and about to walk out his front door. The father grabbed his child and the home invader fled.
Exactly. Never leave your doors unlocked. However if someone breaks into my locked house....my 2 HUGE dogs will GLADLY help you leave, or not. Jus saying. Plus the 9mm on my bedside is only there for backup, I do not want to have to use it but I will not be taken in my own home. So someone would sadly pick the wrong house to invade if they tried it here. Seen and heard of too many bad things in my lifetime to sit back while a psycho decides my fate. Nope.
I agree if it wasn't about a middle school kid being home alone.. not sure about you but I'd never leave a gun with my kid's for any reason!. So yeah a dog or 2, locking up, asking adult neighbors that you trust to keep an eye out for ya, calling them a few times, and one thing I never allowed was using the computer when we weren't home or there gaming consoles they tend to lose themselves when doing these two things🥴...

All that was WRITTEN ON HIS..DOOR?..LOOKS MORE LK HE WAS MESSAGING HIM ? If he had his back to the door..Why would they try sending messages via..Door..Lol
I think the person got bored or became intrigued after standing there for a bit waiting. So started to write at the door. Obviously the last few he was getting annoyed the kid hadn’t turned around. Left not killing him because the kid wasn’t giving him what he wanted. Pure fear and helplessness. Buuuut that’s my opinion.
I was raised in a family where all the doors were kept locked at all time. We all had our own keys which we wore on necklaces. If you forgot yours you waited for someone to answer the door or get home.
I was told to always leave one ear out. I'm always listening and I'm a light sleeper. Cause sometimes things can happen to someone you love at home. My great grandmother died from a heart attack cause her husband heard a thud and didn't check
I live by myself in a very small rural town in Southern Oregon. My immediate neighborhood is mostly seniors, not including myself. I feel comfortable and relatively safe leaving my door unlocked. Nothing really happens in this town. However, I don't wear earbuds or headphones and I'm sensitive to my surroundings because I'm used to being the only one in my apartment. My hearing is bad but I'm positioned to always face my bedroom door. I also have difficulty focusing on things. If this had happened to me, I would have been murdered by the intruder because I would have noticed him right away. When you live alone, you're not used to the feeling of someone being in the same room with you, even if you can't see or hear them.
@@googleuser2226 He or she lives alone.... You think the person is going to tell you where he lives to a stranger who has a creepy id like Google User ??

@axxomovies-he6zi Exactly. What better way to terrorize someone than to make them think you watched them for 2 hours. Anyone crazy enough to have actually stood there for 2 hours probably would have killed him.
One of homeboys friends is one hell of a prankster
That's exactly why I get sketched out wearing noise canceling headphones sometimes.
I start psyching myself out thinking I heard something, so I end up taking them off to check it
I love going to bed listening to stories but so does my husband. And my dog is a horrible guard dog when she dies notice anything.
@@Loralanthalas I do too. I have always enjoyed falling asleep listening to talk radio, audiobooks, documentaries, or even just the television on.
My father was the same way, I wonder sometimes if it something I picked up from him.
yup... I can't do it!
Ah, just as I was about to sleep, what a great thing to recommend to me right now

@Stephanie Crabtree same 🥲
Same
that was 2016 trust me ppl don’t have that much time on their hands anymore
9pm and I got them feels too 😂
I'm more surprised at how he can be THAT focused for more than one hour.
People who can't multi-task have deep levels of concentration. I'm that way too. IF I'm working, do NOT disturb my train of thought to chat! It irritates me...then I turn into a werewolf and eat your @ ss!!!
I can sit in my employer's parking lot lunch and get lost in my smartphone: YT, etc ..s d not see,/notice that someone got into their car , parked next to me, or behind me, & literally LEFT. It's possible.
Right?
Jeez, he's a teenaged boy. Porn 🤣
The intruder was totally just a friend who wanted to cheat off the kid's notes, but also didn't wanna disturb him while he was "in the zone" lol
This is why I love that doors on homes and apartments here in Korea have automatically close and lock as soon as no one is in the doorway
Which Korea cause north it seems like you're dead no matter what and south you can live a life
@@nonamenoname4269 South. And you are right, in NK the citizens have such a terrible living situation. We South Koreans are blessed to be able to live a happy life.
@@phoenixkwonyou also have to be carful of getting kidnapped by North Korea, they’ve kidnapped quite a few people from Japan and South Korea. One they made them make movies or something very weird. Dude also made a crazy complicated plan to use two girls as unknowing assassin to take out his brother who wanted to go to Walt Disney World and stuff like that made him an embarrassment for them. Could also just be he was a threat to power he had his uncle blown up with anti aircraft guns for the same reason of consolidating powder. Extreme overkill
At least someone was nice enough to watch over him while hes doing his thing
I would charge for the nanny service, f* that i ain't looking out for a child that's not mine lol
Dude, I had something like this happen to me. It was the 70s. I was 8 or 9 at the time. It was just me and my mom. I woke up to a man trying to pry my window open. I was so terrified I couldn't scream out. I rolled againt the wall out of his view and after a while he gave up and left. Not even a week later I was on a field trip with an after school program. We were at a local park when one of the girls decided she wanted to go home and ran off before the adults could stop her. She was found assaulted and dead in a creek near the park. She lived behind me on the same block. Turns out the guy who did it also lived on the same block as we did. I'm pretty sure it was the same guy who was trying to get in my bedroom window. I've always wondered if I had been able to scream that night and the police had caught him. Would the girl he killed still be alive?
She was wearing platform shoes, wasn't she? Always with the high heels....
Don't blame yourself on the what ifs. Don't carry that burden. It's not your fault you couldn't scream
Oh Honies! How terrifying! You could not have stopped what happened. It's called survivors guilt 😔 Big hug Honey. I saw almost the same thing but my window was too high for a human to reach unaided!
That.. is not similar.
@@LKs_myFavs2022 sus
Bro why the scary ass images everytime bro💀😭
That damn wolf jump scare always gets me.
This is why I dont like wearing headphones, especially when alone
Scary baby ruclips.net/user/shortsSZz3MK9p_tE?feature=share
Same. Saved up for AirPods for a couple of reasons. I leave one out so that I can hear while walking or while inside. Saw someone get hit by a bus because they were way into their device. I don’t have a pet anymore so I don’t have my “alarm.” He was super skittish so any time someone came in, he’d freak. Nothing else. Just people.
@@alisonj1384 - when I was in high school many many years ago, the Walkman cassette player was the fad of the time, it came out a few years earlier and a lot of kids had one.
This one kid Gary had a walkman and always had his headphones on whenever he wasnt in class. he would listen to music all of the time, he loved his Walkman and didnt go anywhere without it. Gary was a quiet cool kid and everyone who knew gary, liked him. Gary really enjoyed his music, I dont think I ever seen him without his headphones on, he always listening to music. One day during school, a group of about 5 were going to Frank's house for lunch, it was only a 7 minute walk to Franks house from school. The school was on the corner of canyon & wood rd.
As we were leaving school and getting ready to cross wood road, a van was coming from the left, we seen the van and stopped but Gary kept walking, he never looked and we yelled for him to stop but he couldn't hear us, the mirror of the van hit Gary in the head at 45 mph, killed him instantly. There was a big puddle of brain matter in the street where he died. Its something you never forget. It's one of the reasons why I never wear headphones, I like to hear everything that is happening around me.
NOTE: all names were changed, but unfortunately it really happened in front of the school.
Wonder what brand head phones cuz I can always hear somebody walk in the room or maybe I feel somebody in the room
@@msxmargo - I would guess he had the ones that completely covered your ears. that was the norm for people with home stereos. back than the jack alone is the size of a earpod
And my dad really asked me why I lock my door every night. I tell him because of intruders, then he looks at me and just said “ nothing will happen” even though someone literally stole his car a couple months ago. He also said how will firefighters get to you, like I literally have a window I can climb out of, and my room is on the ground, all I have to do it cut the insect net thing.
wtf is the point of not locking it I never understand people who don't. It's literally 2 seconds out of your day to prevent possibly losing all of your possessions
Your profile picture brings me joy
fuck cutting the net,,, just push its faster
In response to the firefighters comment, just say "nothing will happen"
@@puurplegiraffe if someone's going picklocking into your home, then they'll pick lock into your rokm
Noise cancelling head phones...equals... zero observation abilities...

It’s times like these where I’m glad I have 3 dogs in my house and 2 of them are very large and very protective😂
What the great thing about animals, especially dogs, is that they alert you when something is out of place or not right. Always act when their behavior clues you in something is not right.
@@catherinegilles6408
No some dogs just cower & hide under a chair when things are slightly off!!
I have three inside, too.
One Rottie, One Shih Tzu, and a Malti-poo. The Rott and Malti would attack--one hits high and the other hits low.....meanwhile, the Shih tzu is too prissy and would run to hide...lol
I never ever sit with my back to any DOOR..and I never have both headphones 🎧 in so I CAN hear AND I'm AWARE my surroundings!!!
Ironically, that kid could've been killed if he did what ur saying
God knows what the lunatic would have done if there was eye contact.
Smart
I know! When he said the kid had his back to the room and noise-canceling headphones on, that was the scary part!
Rubbish
So basically this story is a guardian Angel broke in, stole nothing, and didn’t hurt anyone.
My door is unlocked right now.
I ALWAYS lock my doors due to past trauma. Might not keep us safe but you feel secure enough to go to sleep. Sleeping is a very vulnerable place where you trust enough to let ypur guards down. When it's violated its hard to ever feel safe again!
Scary part is... what would’ve happened when he looked? And, he left when the parent pulled up. If they hadn’t. He may have waited.
While I am attending an online class or playing a game while home alone I always keep the volume down so I can be aware of my surroundings. Being completely unaware of your surroundings is the exact reason why most robbery happens.
Sometimes, locking your doors doesn't prevent an intruder who is intent on entering and doing harm. The kid had an angel watching over him also.
can i just acknowledge the fact that the transcript is literally just me to my friends during class?
“You seem focused.”
“Turn around.”
“Look at me.”
A lady my wife worked with, had young children. The lady and her husband wanted to go out for the evening till the next morning, so she had a young teenage girl come over and babysit. I believe the girl was a family, this was years ago not sure on that.
The young girl came over, they gave her the bedtimes and money for pizzas, told her she could sleep in their bed they had a TV in there.
Evening rolled on, the babysitter and kids ate pizza and she got them ready for bed. After getting the kids settled, she went into the parents room and turned on the TV and sat on the edge of the bed. It was a fairly good size room and thet had a chair in the corner, well sitting in the chair was what she thought was a clown dummy. After a while the parents called the house phone checking up, ( this was 20+ years ago) she went and answered. As they was talking and asking how things were going, she said everything is fine, kids are being good. Then she asked if she could throw a sheet over the clown dummy sitting in the chair, it was creeping her out. The parents told her to get the kids and get out of the house.
They called the cops and the cops arrested the guy. He apparently had some real bad mental issues and was known to do messed up things.
I remember when my wife came home from work and was telling me this happened, I honestly thought she was messing with me, till I met her for lunch one day and the lady told me herself. If she was acting or lying, she was damn good. She had this just terrified look to her face, she was shaking about it. I know that would just mess me up in the head, that poor babysitter was, in a bad way.
This is TERRIFYING
😱 what a lucky escape
but then who was phone?
Sometimes you can see the truth in peoples eyes.
@Kaushik Chakraborty, i need to find that video now.
It was really the spirit of his teacher time traveling and checking up on him to be sure he wasn't lying about studying.
"Look at me" is all she ever says to him in class because he's always zoned out and she feels like he needs to be jumpstarted all the time, so to speak. He never acts like he's listening.
That's one scary teacher trying to cut back on classroom drama.
I was a teacher. I should know.LOL
Dude I was not expecting the werewolf at the end got to admit I jumped a little
I feel like the person was waiting for him to turn around to kill him, good thing he was so focused. What a student!
If the intruder really wanted to kill him the kid would be dead.
That’s what I thought!
Sorry it's not a stranger, it's my imaginary friend Julio, he lives in the shed in the back yard
Ah! I see what you mean. One time I saw my best friend, Henry, stand in the doorway of the bathroom to which my little cousin was terrified. Henry is shy, and it made him sad. I don't know what happened to my little cousin, but it's alright, because Henry is better company anyways.
@@wendyrobinson3429 uhhhhhh-
One time I saw my best friend. Oh actually nevermind you can’t see her. She is invisible
I hang out with julio down by the school yard
One day i saw Mr.Bing bang bong bung ba in the Garden eating a pear,my Cousin was terrified of the Blue Elephant in our garden but..yeah
I was recommended this at 3am lord save me
That kid has zero survival kids.
It was the ghost of his teacher’s teacher’s teacher who wanted to make sure he was doing his work. The muddy footprints were there to make sure that the family was observant and not ignorant.
thats mad deeo bro-
A lot of questions on if the intruder didn’t leave any footprints indicating he left the house, then where could he be?
My theory is the intruder took his shoes off after he went in so it wouldn’t give away his point of exit. Just a thought
Hmmmmm
I thought the same thing
My theory is.....just like 75% of this guy's stories, it's bullshit.
Or he backtracked over the steps he already made
Could you explain the log of notes? How would they know when they were actually written?
It also shows how the brain becomes engaged in a task like playing a video game eith a head set, you are concenting on the screan and emursed in the ambience of the sounds through the head set. Powerful
I should always lock my door so that my brother doesn’t steal my stuff.
Is it just me or does RUclips recommend this kind of video when there’s no other light on and it’s completely dark outside
I even lock my bathroom door when I’m in the shower! No way in hell I’d forget to lock my house door.
Thanks to Mr Ballen, I do NOT
1. Go into caves
2. Go into deep water
3. Go into diving bells
4. Wear noise canceling headphones
This reminds me of a story of a father who left his front door unlocked and busy working on something and lucky the father glanced over his shoulder and caught a man holding his little child in his arms and about to walk out his front door. The father grabbed his child and the home invader fled.
BEYOND frightening. How incredibly irresponsible when one is a parent, responsible for the safety of one's child!
He wouldn't have had time to flee,
if it were me, n he Just had My child in his arms!!!😠😡🥊💥🥊
Ok but how did the kid not feel someone watching him? I feel my cat watching me lmao-
I get goosebumps and my head automatically turns to the direction where someone IS watching me
Not if your too busy listening to ajr music.
Man those songs are bangers..
Lol I grew up terrified of people watching me, so I lock my bedroom door whenever I’m inside. I have to have everything locked. I’m paranoid as hell
The last picture is gonna make me have nightmares for WEEKS
I find it hard to study for two hours I can't imagine watching someone doing it for two hours . I'd be bored witless
It’s called adderall. Or however you spell it.
I'm subscribing ONLY because of the skit in which you said, "I was one of those two men." Thank you for your service, sir.
The intruder was desperate for attention at the end, I'm surprised he didn't demand attention by attacking. 😅
Okay, so I got a reason why i need to stay focused during studies
Exactly. Never leave your doors unlocked. However if someone breaks into my locked house....my 2 HUGE dogs will GLADLY help you leave, or not. Jus saying. Plus the 9mm on my bedside is only there for backup, I do not want to have to use it but I will not be taken in my own home. So someone would sadly pick the wrong house to invade if they tried it here. Seen and heard of too many bad things in my lifetime to sit back while a psycho decides my fate. Nope.
I agree if it wasn't about a middle school kid being home alone.. not sure about you but I'd never leave a gun with my kid's for any reason!. So yeah a dog or 2, locking up, asking adult neighbors that you trust to keep an eye out for ya, calling them a few times, and one thing I never allowed was using the computer when we weren't home or there gaming consoles they tend to lose themselves when doing these two things🥴...
@@wildbynature3192 Right! My guns r locked up. No kids here. Luckily my neighbors are 2 of my brothers lol on a private road. Plus I have a police officer across the street too
@@SimplySamantha333 Ur all good then....unless that werewolf thing chooses to hangout on ur stairs showing it's pearly whites, but maybe u and ur dogs could jump it and shoot it?
@@faithruckdeschel1294 Absolutely! If Someone/something came here to my place, they/it would definitely be picking the wrong house to prowl around in, I tell u that!! Keep safe my friends.
I have a Yorkie
And she’s 28
She ain’t scared
She can have 30 children
And
Bro
All that was WRITTEN ON HIS..DOOR?..LOOKS MORE LK HE WAS MESSAGING HIM ? If he had his back to the door..Why would they try sending messages via..Door..Lol
I think the person got bored or became intrigued after standing there for a bit waiting. So started to write at the door. Obviously the last few he was getting annoyed the kid hadn’t turned around. Left not killing him because the kid wasn’t giving him what he wanted. Pure fear and helplessness. Buuuut that’s my opinion.
@@Zombilina or just craziness, but your explanation does make sense
It's a transcript.
Yeah, so he wrote down the time for each message too?
Always lock your door!
Bro just respected the grind and decided not to kill him
I was raised in a family where all the doors were kept locked at all time. We all had our own keys which we wore on necklaces. If you forgot yours you waited for someone to answer the door or get home.
"lmao look at this dude can't wait to scare him when he turns around"
"WHEN DOES HE FINALLY TURN AROUND"
U already know that was someone that knew his study routine and did this to mess with him. IMO
The intruder got busy trying to solve the math problems on that paper.
I remember in Navy Bootcamp, you would get punished for not locking your locker. Lock anything lockable no matter how "safe" the neighborhood is. 🕵
These videos get progressively more scary and you feel even worse for the victims
Those people have one hilarious prankster of a neighbor….
This rlly is one of the scariest home invasion stories, ever.
Your the reason I’m paranoid but I just can’t stop watching these
😂😂😂
I was told to always leave one ear out. I'm always listening and I'm a light sleeper. Cause sometimes things can happen to someone you love at home. My great grandmother died from a heart attack cause her husband heard a thud and didn't check
I swear every f*%$@# time I put on noise canceling headphones, some sh*t always happens that wouldn't have happened if I could hear. Everytime !
It was his teacher testing his distraction level
I live by myself in a very small rural town in Southern Oregon. My immediate neighborhood is mostly seniors, not including myself. I feel comfortable and relatively safe leaving my door unlocked. Nothing really happens in this town. However, I don't wear earbuds or headphones and I'm sensitive to my surroundings because I'm used to being the only one in my apartment. My hearing is bad but I'm positioned to always face my bedroom door. I also have difficulty focusing on things. If this had happened to me, I would have been murdered by the intruder because I would have noticed him right away. When you live alone, you're not used to the feeling of someone being in the same room with you, even if you can't see or hear them.
Where do you live? I have a lot of family in southern Oregon - south of Grants Pass.
