A BBC journalist living in London went home during his lunch break on a seemingly ordinary day. While he was heading back to work, a sudden, piercing pain struck his leg. Someone had bumped into his leg with the pointy end of their umbrella.
Within hours, the man was severely ill and had to be hospitalized. Doctors thought he might have blood poisoning, but he adamantly believed that someone intentionally harmed him. How could a stranger’s umbrella possibly be the cause? Let’s get into it!

Would you be interested in a ricin poisoning case here in the US but I survived??? Seizures for years, but was able to "cure" myself.
Just a suggestion but could you do some more mysteries not related to death lol
There was also a deadly umbrella attack in Hannover / Germany in 2011. The victim (IT Specialist and father of two young children) died of an high Dose of organic mercury. The Man who intoxicated him by a needle in an umbrella isn't found until today!
Until today? They caught him?
Oh dear.😐
@@Jikrin I’m guessing they mean that the guy still hasn’t been found.
@@Jikrin clearly English is not their first langue he meant to say "hasn't been found to this day"
That's so sad! What is this???!!
I had heard of this story before but at the time, the umbrella being used was just a theory and I had been wondering about the truth behind this assassination ever since. Glad I found out now!
Rest in peace Georgi
oof
Same here. i remember hearing about this case from another source, but it wasn't as detailed as this episode. I enjoy this series online. :D
I’ve actually never heard of this story but wow is it a sad way to go 😢
@@MustacheHam Same here
*peace
sorry, somebody had to say it
This is so sad Georgi is just like the kid who died at I think 11 for speaking the truth about the horrible things that happen in his hometown like selling children away to factories to make little money or other stuff etc. Unfortunately he died from murderer I think for speaking out, people like Georgi are really sad. :(
this world is controlled by evil people who do not appreciate having a light shone upon any of their activities.
@@doyoueventhink351indeed. And they never get held accountable
That... is horrible😢😔😭
I remembered this. I had a book that detailed various mysteries of the twentieth century and explained them. It had this very case and it showed a diagram of the umbrella and how the mechanism worked. IT also talked about the JFK assassination, UFO sitings, Hindenburg crash, the appearance of Angels during I think World War I. Sadly I no longer have the book, I don't remember what happened to it.
do you remember the name?
@@phungphuong8350 Great Mysteries of the 20th Century.
The angels thing was WW1, Angels of Mons. Completely made up from a short story in an English newspaper that people thought was real.
@@MegCazalet Thanks for the clarification. It's been years since I looked at the book, so I was going by memory.
Not a book on mysteries turning into a mystery itself…
Me: *momentarily thinks about eating random beans on the ground*
Brew: DON'T EAT THOSE
@Xärzë I fixed it
@@orrinpants it is now "un-fixable"
who eats random beans tho
@@souratanayroy6632i did once and nothing happen
@@pavelalalala8866WHAT
This would never work in California. Anyone seen carrying an umbrella is automatically suspicious.
Why?
@@dackbowland1876 I think it's a joke about how hot and dry it is there? [OP would have to confirm or not, I'm not 100% certain]
@@dackbowland1876 because umbrellas are guns

They can't resist
I have been paranoid about bumping into people in public ever since I saw the episode of NCIS where this exact umbrella ricin situation happens. And also old-fashioned umbrella with pointy ends. Ricin is terrifying and I find it even more scary that you can just make it from beans.
EDIT: Forgot to mention I first saw that episode when I was like 9 years old so that kind of thing really sticks with you. I loved NCIS as a kid and some things really shaped my perception of the world…. Like being afraid of snipers.
2ND EDIT: Remembered another irrational TV-based fear I had as a kid- Car bombs. Thanks to the show Monk. Found out years later that my twin also developed the fear of cars blowing up on ignition after we watched the episode as a family.
I think these are reasonable things to be paranoid about. Unfortunately there's not much you can do to avoid such threats other than to be paranoid about it.
And remember, you're only paranoid if there's no one after you.
@@neowolf09 Exactly. If one was after somebody, they would make that well known to the victim. Seeking help from a qualified professional helps relieve the paranoia, especially if it's irrational.
"like being afraid of snipers."
rip Kate 😢
You'd think the doctors ought to at least swab the wound and see what's up wjole the guy is still alive.
Given the time it happened, unless you're testing for a specific substance, finding the poison/substance causing the issue would be harder to find. And with so many symptoms, again it would be harder to identify the source.
@@Shadowdancer_Gaming true
I was wondering about that. At least how they didn't find the ball until autopsy when they knew of the attack. Though Kate is right, mixed symptoms would've made it very hard to guess which poison.
I remember reading about those umbrellas in some book when I was a kid. I think this fueled my hatred for umbrellas even more
So originally you hated umbrellas because...?
@@ASHERUISE Dude never answered the question…😔😔😔
Let me give you more hatred
Watch anime Another
This assassination was used as the base inspiration for an episode of NCIS. That episode was the first time I'd heard of ricin.
i heard of this when i was maybe 8 or 9 and for the next few years i was super paranoid about people with closed umbrellas in public
ok
If I heard of this when I was 8 I’d also be scared too
I am paranoid about bumping into anything now
I'd heard about this before, and yet I was still hoping Georgi would make it. Little disappointed in the investigation into his death, but I assume that they had no "official" leads until the two Olegs confessed.
anxiety will hits me hard if i've ever criticized their government and see someone brings umbrella when i m taking a walk
"That's all it takes?"
"That's all it takes."
Never underestimate the evil authoritarians are willing to bring upon the world.
Living it.. 🥺
So true. How anyone could ever think communism or any other totalitarian type government is what we all need, especially when we have so many tragic examples of its catastrophic failures to reference
@@celeca7 absolute power is something extremely few deserve to hold. By "extremely few" I mean like 1 in hundreds of billions at best.
It's such a corrupting thing to hold though.
@@crowdemon_archives
There is no such thing as few, nobody ever should have any absolute power
"DONT EAT RANDOM BEANS YOU FIND OUTSIDE"
i died-
lol. FR.
“Don’t eat anything you find growing wild outside!” Is something my mom taught me when I was a little kid. Did that guy never get them memo? 😂
"Unalived himself" Very child friendly way of putting it.
Edit: Not that kids should know about that stuff. But its friendlier on people who are easily mentally affected.
Its a common term nowadays.
@@Seek1878 Oh? First time I come across it. Is it one of those non binary unoffensive terms. Like happy birth-giving day instead of mothers day?
@@mariejuana2993 no, it's to avoid social media sites from censoring posts talking about it
@@1snivy10 Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh...
Clever, thanks for telling me.
@@mariejuana2993 This has nothing to do with gender, calm down.
Is this the bulgarian umbrella?
Yep, it was the bulgarian umbrella.
@@al.bay24 lolll
Yes
Yes
@@Pampelegg sup
Nice job, doctors… Patient: Someone stuck me in the leg and I might have been poisoned. Doctors: Haha, how ridiculous, we’re not even going to investigate this suspiciously inflamed puncture. (After autopsy) Oops… 😬
ive seen this story before
as a British person i was told this when i was little
My adhd when I hear one word, a bunch of song lyrics pop up. So singing Rhianna with you was fun I felt seen. 😂
This reminds me of the "heart attack gun" developed by the CIA decades ago...fires a micro sized pellet with a shellfish toxin (can be fired from quite a distance). The victim hardly feels anything at first. The pellet dissolves completely so the only wound is a tiny red dot, and the coroner presumes a heart attack death.
I nearly lost it when you said umbrella brella brella ayy ayy ayy
I never knew umbrella’s were such great weapons
have you never seen Kingsman?
Penguin-approved.
"When you are out in the world, you should be focused on your environment. Do not be listening to music on your headsets. Do not be talking endlessly on your telephone. Do not be dreaming and imagining, your mind far away from where you are. You must be watching and listening.
When you step out the door of your home, you must be paying attention to your environment to discern what is occurring there, to discern any hazards or any changes in approach that are necessary for you.
If people would do this, they would make far fewer mistakes and avoid terrible catastrophes. It only takes one moment of not paying attention to end your life or to alter it completely.
The animals know this. They are paying attention. People do not know this. They are not paying attention. So in spite of their greater intelligence and capabilities, they are far more prone to make foolish and unnecessary mistakes."
A quote from - *_The Art of Seeing_* - a teaching from - _The New Message from God_
This is so true.
I have a spidey sense that alerts me if im gonna be in danger
@@theflashgirl2057 I think I have the same thing
"the animals know this"
they literally... don't have consciousness... they can't "know" anything, they just basically don't have a choice as to how to react or etc.
while humans do, so that's why their behavior is complex and diverse
Thank you!
I’m immediately assuming position by injection, or the tip of the umbrella was rusty or smth but the first one seems more and less likely at the same time
This was uploaded on my birthday!
I’d heard about this a few years ago, cool to see another video on it after so long, like this was a gift of sorts!
Happy birthday :)
@@lycheemyusic thank you!
We need more people spilling the actual truth
[Ricin production is rising]
ricin is scary
Spilling the beans?
It's a shame that CyDragon2 has chosen to Epstein himself.
It's not paranoia if they really are out to get you.
1.53mm is quite big you know. It's a wonder that Georgi doesn't feel that metal ball on his leg.
Whenever I see umbrella related death,
That one particular scene from Another came to mind.
My buddy Jesse told me that him and his friend Walter made ricin one time...
bruh, I was literally watering a bunch of ricin plants in a garden for 2 weeks a couple months ago, they oddly get swarmed with wasps
YOU CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS
Is it a bad thing that I immediately suspected a chemical attack when I heard he got a wound after getting poked by the umbrella?
Can we just appreciate how my dad is named Georgi and you pronounce his name better than the people he works with. Still bad tho.
😐
The “Still bad tho” made me laugh.
He pronounces better than most others, and I know because I am also Bulgarian
@@Slayerxrt I agree, but the English "r" is just way too far from the Slavic one
ook
Am i the only one that in the map scenes, like at 4:44, sees the water as land and the land as water?
I know what Italy looks like
10:52 okay that animation was insane. Professional af. wth
In all honesty, this doesn't seem that farfetched in modern day.
Finnaly a new video!
Keep up the good work.
one time, i was ten, i accidentally bumped into the couch, you know, that metal part..yes, my knee, bumped into that part, that's when it started bleeding, i put a bandage on it, the bandage kept falling off, two weeks later not even a single bit of the wound changed.
“Man breathes air dies in 5 seconds”
It's very interesting to see all of the TV shows that were inspired by this method of assassination. The Cold War Era was wild time.
A deadly umbrella attack? Call Batman, it seems that the Penguin is back in town!
Brew: But please please.. (Ehem)
Also brew: *DON'T EAT RANDOM BEANS YOU FIND OUTSIDE*
This episode felt like a movie. What up Brew?
Unusual and deadly situation
*DON’T EAT RANDOM BEANS YOU FIND OUTSIDE* (10:35)
Well I'm glad this person's folly of not removing the ricin right away has become a teachable moment for everyone else.
OHh, I thought this was going to be about the umbrella that decapitated someone.
That happend?
I remember this on the news alot growing up in the UK.
Както Другаря Живков казва "Днес, всеки ден, всеки час, навсякъде има материал."
Факти
"DEATH BY BUMP" That is such a good label for this video.
You can make me paranoid about anything. Special kind of superpower.
Don't worry, Brew, your Rhianna reference was recognized by us internet dinosaurs known as millennials! 🤣🤣
Brew, you must become a singer. Your singing is just-- mWUAH
ngl this is the earliest ive ever been to a video
The umbrella reference joke was cursed. 😂
14:13 - Well that was weird for me ._.
This is a rather infamous case back then. Documentary on this case was stilling cycling on TV in 90s
Now I also fear umbrellas
God thats creepy. I was just in berlin and learnt about just this!
Yay a new brew video!
This soviets were really ahead of their time
Not really
@@samuelhyslop9639 They were, The Soviets were credited with several breakthroughs
@@samuelhyslop9639 Yes really
Yeah, at least some many things, like espionage, they we're really great at that. They definitely weren't that strong economically though, which is why they no long exisit.
@@Cman04092 Arguable that the Soviet Ecomony was way ahead of Europe after their Creation on the onslaught of the Great Depression whereby The world was on Economic Collapse the Soviets Prospered and was praised as such
The Soviets were also economically strong way ahead into the 80s and was still the Second leading Economic Power and had Influence outside of European affairs
As soon as I saw the intro, I knew which one it was.
It's one of those cases I grew up listening.
4:01 is when the sponsor ends. Yw😊

Thats creepy
The man was a hero, RIP, Georgi.
I'm from a Slavic country, Croatia, the same territory of former Yugoslavia which was initially communist, and we've had a LOT of trouble with Serbia who are even today supporters of Russia, even amidst the war with Ukraine. Of course, this is about the government of Serbia, those in power and some individuals, not all Serbs. While numerous countries escaped the Yugoslavian fallacies after deciding to declare independence, Croatia had massive trouble with Serbia who straight up declared war and wanted to create "Big Serbia". Awful stuff, the cultures and languages between all of us ex-Yugoslavia country residents are extremely similar, we are all one, just like all humans are one, but culture, ignorance, racism, ableism, bigotry, rhetoric of supremacy and nationalism have done and still are doing extreme harm in these parts. Of course, the more we align with the European Union, the better we'll do, younger generations are also much more connected, educated and open-minded, but older folks tend to be extremely bigoted. What bad upbringing, religious fanaticism, harmful culture and bigotry does to a people is insane...
I’m still sad about Yugoslavia 😢
Unfortunately after the collapse of the soviet union, a lot of socialist states fell with it since the USSR was their main ally and resource for trade. I'm a Marxist leninist myself and it pains me to see the state of former soviet countries being ravaged by greed and capitalism. Anyone who supports Russia supports irridentism, anyone who supports ukraine supports imperialism. There is only one war that should be fought and that is the class war.
The somewhat unexpected “ella ella eh eh” took me out

0:29 i heard call saul theme song start
These stories are crazy.
geting a pimple and swelling after a bizarre sting with a umbrella? his sense should tingle about poison on this point
The guy really was bumped off
I think the person who poked him put something on the little palette. Edit: this was before he said there was ricin on the pellet
was there a needle in the point of the unberlla which had poision in it?
This is crazy I remember watching story on basic cable when I was 7, I’m in my 30’s. 🤣 Huyy…it made me paranoid of umbrellas☂️
Walter White called, he wants his assassination techniques back lol
Why on Earth would anyone just eat some random beans they found on the ground?
As soon as you said the part where he was stabbed by an umbrella my immediate thought was
"Poison?"
Not sure if that's right bc I haven't finished the video yet but lets see if I guessed it.

I was born during the tail end of the Cold War and it was indeed a scary time.
How would you know if you were hissy a baby
@@rhetoric5173 The Cold War lasted quite a long time and even if things cooled down in the US, it took time for eastern Europe after the breakup of the Soviet Union. They're still rebuilding. Someone I know around my age (late 20s) actually remembers his older brother talking about how he was refused a ration of mayonnaise or something because he was too young and basically not considered a person when it was like one small jar per person (adult), as he described it. This was in Romania, don't remember if it was before or after the death of Ceausescu (1989) and I'm not sure how long rationing continued on. This could've been any child born in the 80s just based off of that example, which the oldest of those kids are just in their early 40s now.
