Not according to the dictionary it's not. Here's the definition from the Oxford dictionary - The practice of eating human flesh, normally either out of dire need or for ceremonial purposes Here's the Britannica Dictionary definition - cannibalism, also called anthropophagy, eating of human flesh by humans. I'd say that what you said used to be true but because Cannibalism has been used to mean eating human flesh alone for so long it's become the common accepted meaning. The true meaning of words changes all the time when the general public misuse them. A baby can be Grizzly as well as it meaning the bear. That word they have used in the wrong way.
The Franklin Expedition didn't have a radio so the last communication in 1848 wasn't by radio. It was a written note left in a cairn that was eventually found a decade later.

11:30 this entire segment has been confused with Leningrad. It's the Battle of Stalingrad and the Siege of Leningrad. Stalingrad wasn't under siege, it was assaulted with the Germans eventually capturing it through door to door fighting, Leningrad wasn't captured. However both of these were the deadliest conflicts of the war, but the citizens of Stalingrad were largely evacuated (those of Leningrad weren't). For example; it's Leningrad that was under siege for 900 days, the Battle of Stalingrad was 7months long. You talk about lake Ladoga while showing a map of Stalingrad (that sits beside the Volga river), but that lake is beside Leningrad (St. Petersburg today). I could go on, but I think you get the point that you confused these 2 events.
I have also pointed out the leningrad/ Stalingrad difference. Also, the last messages left by the Franklin expedition were discovered on paper, buried under a cairn in the wilderness. The main message on the paper is that "all is well", whilst scrawled around the outside is a later report that Franklin had died and the expedition is doomed. It's a fascinating story. The two ships were only rediscovered a few years ago.

The fifth entry is actually the siege of Leningrad now modern-day St. Petersburg. Leningrad not Stalingrad had many stories of cannibalism as the city was cut off from the south by the Germans with only Lake Ladoga as the only passage to bring supplies into the city. The people were given as little as 4 ounces of bread per person per day and to compensate for shortages of flour, the bread was mixed with wood pulp. While not many instances were direct cannibalism, many of the people started eating the dead as their bodies would freeze in the snow.
This is purported to be a number of grizzly stories, but there isn't a bear featured in any of them. I believe that the word you intended was "grisly" perhaps? Good video, Simon et al!!
You missed Edward Pierce a convict in Tasmania in the 1800's, who would take other convicts with him when tried to escape on a number of occasions - as food. Before he was executed he declared 'Human flesh is delicious, much better than chicken or pork' - It's a cruel world.

I think you may be confusing Side Projects with Mega Projects. The latter talks about engineering marvels of the present & recent past, the other one is more of a catch-all channel for all of Simon’s “side projects” - stuff that doesn’t fit well into any of his other channels.

Are you shure you didnt mean the siege of leningrad? And lake ladoga also is near the former leningrad, not stalingrad. it was shurely terrible in both cities...
My friend’s dad was a child during the siege of Stalingrad. Talked about eating shoes and book bindings. He was young and oddly enough didn’t stunt his growth, he is well over six feet. But it might be because he was well fed later. But it still amazes me he survived that when so many others didn’t. Now I am really curious what he didn’t tell us, but like my FIL and Vietnam I know better than to poke the bear.

Nothing like a cannibalism story to make every trace of hunger walk out the door. Seriously just hearing about cannibalism kills my appetite dead & makes it more a challenge to keep the fluids in my stomach down.
"Most of us know about the Uruguayan soccer team that resorted to cannibalism after their plane went down." Well, most of us know it was the rugby team, not the soccer team.
Little known "Jamestown" fact: In the US "Datura" is also known as "Jimsonweed" because "Datura" is a long known "Deliriant/Hallucinogen" (Deliriants basically remove you from reality completely) and apparently an incident occured during the decline of "Jamestown" in which Datura was mistaken for an edible green and citizens consumed an extreme amount of it and 6-10 people went absolutely bonkers in Jamestown for a week. Jamestown weed got shortened to jimson weed.
The fact that Simon doesn’t know what side projects is about anymore is why it’s my second favorite behind Business Blaze for obvious reasons. Also Simon, if you want to get back on track a little crack the whip and get a script on the Lockheed Martain P-3 Orion. I can get your people in contact with many veteran and a couple historical societies. A lot of the photos you use when covering Soviet stuff was photographed from that plane and basically everything involving Naval things from that era. She was the second longest serving US aircraft.
Oh man, these Uruguayans had it bad. So not just a rugby team in an air crash in the Andes but a soccer team as well?!? Did they crash on the mountain next to the rugby team? Is that how the rugby team survived? Not a soccer team.
Here is a quick story of cannibalism in the Delaware bay in 1884. There was a three man skiff going off to transfer supplies to a larger ship when they lost control of the skiff. It's around a week later and they are still lost at sea , so one of the men starts to go a bit crazy he was a 25year old man that was considered to be built , the other two older crewman saw him sharpening a knife snd they asked him what he was doing if I remember right he didn't give them a straight answer to why he was sharpening his knife. So they ended up killing the 25yr old and eating him for around a week .After that week a ship destined for Pennsylvania picked them up , but the two men had a dilemma they were ashamed of what they had done and they didn't want the ship that was rescuing them to see the dead mans torn up and unrecognizable body , so as the rescue ship was coming towards the skiff the two men dumped the body overboard. Apparently between the smell and the amount of blood in the skiff the crew of the rescue shipped had an idea of what happened but it was the way of the sea so nothing happened when they saw the blood . In the end no one was charged with any crime and the man who was the skiffs pilot actually went back to do the same work many years later.... If I can find the account of this story I'll edit my comment and add the link. amp-delmarvanow-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.delmarvanow.com/amp/6876403002?amp_js_v=a6&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#aoh=16247313171889&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.delmarvanow.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2Fdelaware%2F2021%2F03%2F07%2Fadrift-stormy-seas-delaware-pilot-crew-survives-cannibalism%2F6876403002%2F
With Leningrad siege hunger, it should be noted that it all happened not because there was siege at all, but because Stalin refused to surrender the city, and didn't try hard to supply citizens with food. Higher-ups ate well enough.
Do Francesco Oreillana (may be misspelled) him and his crew were the first Europeans to cross the Amazon from the West to East and their journey was documented and is an amazing story of survival!
There is something wrong regarding the siege of Stalingrad: perhaps I misunderstood but I noticed that you were referring to "truck convoys across frozen lake Ladoga". Lake Ladoga is near Leningrad (Saint-Petersburg), not Stalingrad. It played indeed an important role in the siege of Leningrad from 1941 to 1944 but has nothing to do with Stalingrad. I'm not sure but this cannibalism story would be more plausible in Leningrad which has been under siege for a longer period. The battle of Stalingrad lasted "only" from July 17th, 1942 to February 2nd, 1943.

Maybe they should scale back if they can't effectively edit their product. It just makes them look incompetent. The difference between "grizzly" and "grisly" is pretty important for someone trying to effectively communicate.
I was only half paying attention when I started the video and it was almost over before I was like, "There aren't any fucking bears in these stories... what gives?"
Me: I wonder if now that Simon has Casual Criminalist if he's trying to get away from doing murder and such on his other channels? Simon on SIDEPROGECTS:today, people killing and eating each other! Lol!
Just don't tell them. As an Russian, i've recognize the girls story (it's actually from her diary), and sawdust addition. It's Leningrad, modern saint Petersburg.
Grisly* = Causing horror or disgust VS. "grizzly" = A huge bear (pronounced the same) i.e. The 'grisly' scene of blood and gore was the result of a violent 'grizzly' attack... edit: Not to be confused with "gristly" = containing or feeling of 'gristle' (pronounced in 3 syllables and rhymes with missile-ee/thistle-ee)
This makes me think of the movie Ravenous (1999) which still getting my blood pumping 24 years later. It's not just the drums... Even though they are scary AF! OKAY... Just looked it up and yes the movie Ravenous was indeed inspired by "The Colorado Cannibal" Alfred Packer. Creepy as can be.
I suppose it might count as a "Side Projects" video if we have it with a side of Chianti and Fava Beans...

Wouldn't it be the drive of Leningrad not Stalingrad? Get it together Fact Boi. Damn it Danny, AM I RIGHT PETER??????
Nothing like a cannibalism story to make every trace of hunger walk out the door.
Seriously just hearing about cannibalism kills my appetite dead & makes it more a challenge to keep the fluids in my stomach down.
1:05 - Chapter 1 - Richard Parker
3:45 - Chapter 2 - Alferd Packer
6:25 - Chapter 3 - The franklin expedition
8:55 - Chapter 4 - Jamestown colony
11:30 - Chapter 5 - Siege of Stalingrad
Radio in 1848? Are you nuts? 7:23
"Most of us know about the Uruguayan soccer team that resorted to cannibalism after their plane went down." Well, most of us know it was the rugby team, not the soccer team.
Should have found 5 more stories and put it on Top Tenz.
I live the same town packer is buries in. His tombstone used to be stolen every Halloween until it was cemented down
all your channels are becoming one channel Simon, "Fact Boy's Factual Facts" lol
My ancestors were at Jamestown. When you hear just how awful it was there and other places on this list, you really see just how good we have it now.
Mine were, too. Lost history.
Little known "Jamestown" fact: In the US "Datura" is also known as "Jimsonweed" because "Datura" is a long known "Deliriant/Hallucinogen" (Deliriants basically remove you from reality completely) and apparently an incident occured during the decline of "Jamestown" in which Datura was mistaken for an edible green and citizens consumed an extreme amount of it and 6-10 people went absolutely bonkers in Jamestown for a week. Jamestown weed got shortened to jimson weed.
"what is this channel even about anymore" my exact thought 🤣🤣🤣
I just prepared my orange cocktail. What a beautiful coincidence.
The fact that Simon doesn’t know what side projects is about anymore is why it’s my second favorite behind Business Blaze for obvious reasons. Also Simon, if you want to get back on track a little crack the whip and get a script on the Lockheed Martain P-3 Orion. I can get your people in contact with many veteran and a couple historical societies. A lot of the photos you use when covering Soviet stuff was photographed from that plane and basically everything involving Naval things from that era. She was the second longest serving US aircraft.
Go watch casual criminalist it is pure art
Oh man, these Uruguayans had it bad. So not just a rugby team in an air crash in the Andes but a soccer team as well?!? Did they crash on the mountain next to the rugby team? Is that how the rugby team survived?
Not a soccer team.
You'd honestly think they'd just be able to get full off an arm or something.
As a Canadian I have certainly know of the Franklin Expedition--for a slight part of our population it's a national obsession.
How is this not a blaze?!? DANNY!!!!!!
Me: What, no Nazinsky Island?
Also me: Thank Christ, no Nazinksy Island. That Geographics video still gives me nightmares
Cannibalism - when the Cold War, Soviet Space misadventures, and airplanes just will not do.
Radio communication from the Franklin expedition? A little early for radios there lol
How is this a side project? Clearly this should be a business blaze!
Emmm what to eat first the spell checker or the fact checker.🍽
This is like a business blaze or casual criminalist video that slipped through 😹
Watching this while eating...when Simon described bones on pots, well, buhbye my boiled eggs in curry. My stomach will miss you dearly. 🥺
Good stuff and very interesting, but in regards to the Franklin Expedition segment, radio did not exist in 1848.
Watching this whilst chowing down in maccas. Mm loving it. I'll have to turn the sound down.
I ain't ever going hungry either, watch your back everyone.
Ill get you first boy
Topic suggestion for side projects: Suitcase Nuclear Weapons
Cannibal the musical is very roughly based on Alfred Packer
it's a shpadoinkle day!
@Matthew Laatsch The Aussie movie Van Diemen's Land is better, Not done as a comedy, So it is more realistic in terms of telling the story.
Here is a quick story of cannibalism in the Delaware bay in 1884. There was a three man skiff going off to transfer supplies to a larger ship when they lost control of the skiff. It's around a week later and they are still lost at sea , so one of the men starts to go a bit crazy he was a 25year old man that was considered to be built , the other two older crewman saw him sharpening a knife snd they asked him what he was doing if I remember right he didn't give them a straight answer to why he was sharpening his knife. So they ended up killing the 25yr old and eating him for around a week .After that week a ship destined for Pennsylvania picked them up , but the two men had a dilemma they were ashamed of what they had done and they didn't want the ship that was rescuing them to see the dead mans torn up and unrecognizable body , so as the rescue ship was coming towards the skiff the two men dumped the body overboard. Apparently between the smell and the amount of blood in the skiff the crew of the rescue shipped had an idea of what happened but it was the way of the sea so nothing happened when they saw the blood . In the end no one was charged with any crime and the man who was the skiffs pilot actually went back to do the same work many years later.... If I can find the account of this story I'll edit my comment and add the link. amp-delmarvanow-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.delmarvanow.com/amp/6876403002?amp_js_v=a6&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#aoh=16247313171889&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&_tf=From%20%251%24s&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.delmarvanow.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2Fdelaware%2F2021%2F03%2F07%2Fadrift-stormy-seas-delaware-pilot-crew-survives-cannibalism%2F6876403002%2F
Thank you Simon and his ontarage of staff for all your hard work keeping us entertained! Are you not entertained!!
I thought it was going to be about bears eating each other.
Grizzy = a type of bear
Grisly = gruesome, frightful, horrifying
Are these 5 stories about bears?
Should I be worried that this video made me hungry?
With Leningrad siege hunger, it should be noted that it all happened not because there was siege at all, but because Stalin refused to surrender the city, and didn't try hard to supply citizens with food. Higher-ups ate well enough.
Do Francesco Oreillana (may be misspelled) him and his crew were the first Europeans to cross the Amazon from the West to East and their journey was documented and is an amazing story of survival!
There is something wrong regarding the siege of Stalingrad: perhaps I misunderstood but I noticed that you were referring to "truck convoys across frozen lake Ladoga".
Lake Ladoga is near Leningrad (Saint-Petersburg), not Stalingrad. It played indeed an important role in the siege of Leningrad from 1941 to 1944 but has nothing to do with Stalingrad. I'm not sure but this cannibalism story would be more plausible in Leningrad which has been under siege for a longer period. The battle of Stalingrad lasted "only" from July 17th, 1942 to February 2nd, 1943.
No radio aboard the Erebus or Terror. Guglielmo Marconi wasn't born until 1874...
All Simons channels are slowly turning into Buisness Blaze, and I am all for it!
I was like 13 when my mom watched a documentary about the team who's plane went down in the Andy's, it gave me nightmares for weeks, I can't imagine what those young people went through
That intro was exactly my thoughts 😂
I think it's "grisly" unless it's bears eating each other
Quality control has been seriously slipping lately.
Was just going to comment this lol
@@davidw7269 The guy runs ten active channels that all consistently put out abundant content, errors will happen. It's hardly a big deal. And sometimes I think they leave them in on purpose because it drives comment engagement lol can't blame them
Maybe they should scale back if they can't effectively edit their product. It just makes them look incompetent. The difference between "grizzly" and "grisly" is pretty important for someone trying to effectively communicate.
I was only half paying attention when I started the video and it was almost over before I was like, "There aren't any fucking bears in these stories... what gives?"
One horrifying and repellent thing from the first story that will give me nightmares....tinned turnips.
grisly adjective
extremely disturbing or repellent
the police report described the murder scene in grisly detail
thank you, I couldn't Bear to see that error, it's the Polar opposite of what it's supposed to be
It's raining outside, so I ate Frank.
I'm dying here. 😂
Me: I wonder if now that Simon has Casual Criminalist if he's trying to get away from doing murder and such on his other channels?
Simon on SIDEPROGECTS:today, people killing and eating each other!
Lol!
Highly recommend watching The Terror about the Franklin Expedition!!
So this channel is a different version of TopTenz with 5 instead of 10 subjects and a slightly better description of the events.
You said "Stalingrad" but I think you Meant "Leningrad" lake Ladoga is Near ST. Petersburg, (Leningrad) Stalingrad wasn't wasn't attacked till 1942.
They even show a map of stalingrad that clearly shows no lakes are nearby xD
Just don't tell them. As an Russian, i've recognize the girls story (it's actually from her diary), and sawdust addition. It's Leningrad, modern saint Petersburg.
@@060POTEHb I also recognized the story. The leather from the shoes.
Grisly* = Causing horror or disgust VS. "grizzly" = A huge bear (pronounced the same)
i.e. The 'grisly' scene of blood and gore was the result of a violent 'grizzly' attack...
edit: Not to be confused with "gristly" = containing or feeling of 'gristle' (pronounced in 3 syllables and rhymes with missile-ee/thistle-ee)
This makes me think of the movie Ravenous (1999) which still getting my blood pumping 24 years later. It's not just the drums... Even though they are scary AF!
OKAY... Just looked it up and yes the movie Ravenous was indeed inspired by "The Colorado Cannibal" Alfred Packer. Creepy as can be.
Leningrad needs it's own video. That city is a story that needs to be told properly. The horror of war needs to be told to the world, lest we forget.
more and more like business blaze love it
Are sea turtles super easy to catch from a life boat? In so many stories of sea survival the victims are so often said to catch turtles.
Easier to catch than most other options because they are slower than other air-breathers and you can spot them when they have to surface
Survival cannibal = Ultimate Casual Criminalist 😀
Begbie in Ravenous 1999 is the best cannibal portrayal on film. Try to change my mind
He got peckish trying to get off the heroin there
A small aside about Franklin. It wasn't radio communication in 1848. They left cairns with messages inside.
