the fact that that guy sent his son away because he KNEW he would try to protect his family (and might succeed) is the most infuriating part for me. he did everything he could to make sure his young family was as vulnerable as they could possibly be. they had no chance.
I think he was just tired of all the responsibility of so many children. We don't have much information on it. It would be hard to support so many people when you are poor especially during that period. We don't know how the relationship between them was, whether there was always tension and friction. It would have been a very hard life for the children after his suicide. So he must have not wanted for the others to suffer because of him abandoning everything so he decided to kill them too. I can see that happening. Him doing it just for the joy of murder is a bit unbelievable cause he could have just gone and shot up random people and even managed to get away if he escaped and continue with his life. Doubt, the police at that time had enough materials like CCTV cameras and forensic equipment to catch him if he got away. If he kills his own family there is no way or place for him to escape. He is basically signing his name as the biggest suspect. So, I don't think he was happy about having to do that, or as the narrator said 'he wanted to take a picture with the victims to show off'' and be remembered.
@@Omkar.Gawade - when I heard the date of when the “familicide” took place, I realized it was only a couple months after Black Tuesday happened, which was the beginning of the Great Depression. I’m not sure if this connects as a potential theory for why Charles decided to do what he did, but it might be noteworthy as he had seven children and a wife to support as a relatively new farm owner. I can only imagine what went through his mind if and/or when he learned about the stock market crash. I personally theorize that Charles feel into a deep depression because he knew their farm was about to be dried up from a lack of sales (and unable to afford irrigation and seeds). Maybe he saw no hope for his, his wife, and (most) of his children’s futures. Though, I could be bias with that theory because my mom’s side of the family told her and me about what it was like living through the Great Depression. I wouldn’t want to have lived through any year in that period. It’s truly tragic.
@@MS-dc2tt Yes, but even the time this happened it would have been very controversial and people would have many different theories. Only if you were to have personally known him before the incident would you have any idea of what might have happened. There could be all kinds of problems in their relationships them being a family of 10 would make it even more complex. There might have been all kinds of abuse and other things happening. You won't find this information even at that time. Let alone online after 100 years. Most of it would be speculation.
@@hciapetus1251 Yeah seems plausible. I think he just tired of living. He had 7 children and only 1 is a man that could help him work for the family. Feels like he decide to kill himself and take his family with him while sparing his eldest son because out of them all he is the one with the highest chance to survive alone.
@@SamuelBlack84dude same I won’t ever be in the middle of the ocean or ever have to deal with deep water issues unless we have a tsunami or something. Thalassophobia gang 😂
I actually babysat her when she was just a small child (6-8yrs old). She was so full of life, always energetic & always so excited to tell you about her dreams. I still have a couple cards & pictures she made for me before I moved away. I got to see her a few years later as a preteen & remember how happy I was that she still maintained the happy & eager to live a full & exciting life. She had so much more to offer this world & would have achieved so very much had her life not been taken. One find memory I have is one evening spent playing 'Punk Princesses' where we dressed up in tutus, fishnets, awful neon makeup & took out some bad guy dragons. Bc we were so hardcore & bad butt we beat the knights to the dragons. She had an amazingly awesome personality with an attitude & imagination to rival it. I hate that the world was robbed of such an awesome soul.
No, that's what I thought too based on this video. But she was killed on July 6, 2012. She was found on Jan 16, 2013, and the post is from March 13, 2013. Apparently she randomly posted something 2 months after Skylar was found instead of the next day after she went missing (which is said in the video when the post is shown). She was active on Twitter until the day her friend got sentenced on May 1, 2013 (months after confessing about what they did). Shelia was publicly identified as the second killer in September 2013, got her sentence in January 2014 and was tried as an adult.
The Luna Park fire was an absolute tragedy. There were actually witnesses who told police about some bikie types heard discussing using kerosene to start the fire. These witnesses were young kids from the local youth refuge. After they made their statements, the police returned to the refuge a few hours later to re-interview them. The kids were then threatened by different police into changing their statements, then actually charged with lying to police. Other witnesses were ignored and disregarded at the corenors inquest. Everyone in Australia KNOWS it was Abe Saffron that was behind the fire, and he was aided by corrupt police. Some girls were meeting the young boys who were killed that night, but the father of one girl told them not to go, as something bad was going to happen. Her father was a well known corrupt cop who was really good friends with Abe. So its clear that he knew beforehand what was going on. A documentary on ABCTV Australia was shown earlier this year, which uncovered all this information, AND MORE!! One witness, who was a teenager at the time of the fire, and who made the statements to police ( he was from the refuge) still lives in fear of his life due to threats by police at the time. Abe went on to buy the land after the fire through a shell company owned by members of his family, and sold nearly all the rides etc. It was all over the waterfront position of the park , which was worth millions of dollars. Luna Park is still up and running to this day, but it will never be the same as before the tragedy. The families of the victims were told a memorial would be put at the site, but nothing was ever done. At the end of the day, 6 innocent children, and an innocent man died, all as a result of a handful of greedy people. May the victims all rest in peace, and my ongoing condolences to the loved ones. This should NEVER be forgotten!💔🌹
A heads up about the photo of the boy killed in the Luna Park fire (with the masked man). That photo was not taken inside Luna Park. It was taken roughly 5 km’s away at Circular Quay (another popular tourist spot and meeting place in Sydney) The man (in the mask) was part of a parade at Circular Quay on that day, the parade itself was not near or had any involvement with Luna Park.
The first case with the teenage girls. He narrate the story as if Sheila made the tweet while Skylar is still missing. That tweet was from March 2013, Skylar died on July 2012 and Rachel confess on January 2013.
@@TheSilverwing999 It sucks more than a bit. As a parent the more I think about it, the more I realize how furious I would be to find that someone used a photo of my (dead) kid to craft some creepy mystery thing, for fun, and maybe for money. In fact, when you think of all the tragedies that have felled young children and all the public outrage that the parents invariably face, how they should have protected their kids, no matter how unlikely they could have predicted what followed, you could construe this LIE as if the parents allowed a creepy stranger in a mask to get near their kid, here's the photographic evidence, and that guy may have had something to do with the death. I don't know how anybody got hold of this photo in the first place, but it sure gives credence to the paranoia about what you post on social media and whatever, because someone took advantage of the date stamp to totally reconfigure that day. As for Lazy, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, like HOPEFULLY he at least found reference to this "story" from multiple sources, so had some tangible reason to trust it. But honestly, this highlights a problem with these multi-story uploads; what do you do if one of them turns out to be shamefully false? Just remove the whole thing? I don't know, but he should do something.
David Shaw and Deon Dreyer weren’t ever friends. Deon was 20 when he died in 94’. Everyone who dived at Bushman’s Hole knew about his body and kept an eye out for it. Shaw set a record of diving the deepest in the cave and found his body near the bottom. He then came back with a very well thought out recovery plan not long after as the parents deeply wanted their son’s remains. Tragic story, there’s a good doc out there on it.
I was going to make the same comment! They didn't know each other at all and David made 2 dives and the 2nd dive is when he got disoriented and also died.
@@andie2809 same here, I knew someone had to have caught that and knew the real story. Lazy is generally on top of things and the info on the David Shaw story is relatively easy to find, so for him to drop the ball on this story makes you wonder about the others that we don't know the story if the info is correct or not.
I actually lived in the building next door to Zach and Addie when that happened. I don't know if I ever met Zach but I remember Addie would always sit outside and greet everyone that passed with a smile and a "hello" and then would typically ask if she could bum a cigarette. That's why in that photo of their stove, the top is covered in cigarettes, dollar bills, booze, and pills. Everybody who knew her stopped by to bum her one last smoke/buck/whatever. She was a sweet spirit and a true New Orleanian. R.I.P.
It's possibly the most helpless he's ever felt, losing his brother like that and knowing he couldn't do anything at the time. But the loss may motivate Frank more so that he'll feel like his brother will be proud of him. Being honest, it's the first time I've heard or read the story, but that image of Frank Ocean is powerful.
Dave Shaw didn't know Dion. He saw the body on a previous dive and promised the family of Dion he would recover the body. It was a well planned dive, but as you eluded too, when Dave tried to move Dions body he became entangled and while struggling to get free got the Martinis (Nitrogen narcosis). He knew he was going to die and sent a message up the rope to his friend higher up that he wasn't coming back. A few hours later Dave and Dion's bodies floated back to the surface. So he achieved his goal of returning Dions body to his family, at the cost of his own life. There should be a film of Dave's life, he was an incredible guy.
There actually is a film about him! It's called Dave Never Coming Back, I believe. It's a very harrowing watch when you know how it ends, and it's very well done.
Dave Not Coming Back is on RUclips. The bodies didn't float up, they were tangled in the lines and when the other recovery divers began pulling the lines back up to recover the spare diving tanks, both bodies came up as well.
I don't think we should lionize people who throw their lives away to recover a dead body. The more he's made out to be a hero for that, the more misguided people will think to emulate him. Tragedies like this can multiply if we let them. If someone dies in a dangerous place, that is where they chose to rest. Leave them in peace.
You pronounced igorots perfectly. Thank you for shedding light on how our tribes were taken and exploited by some people during the american regime. It isn't talked about much even in our history books.
Wow, didn't even know my tribesmen were treated in such a manner back in the day. Thanks Lazy! We've come a long way as human beings from treating each other like animals. Hope such tragedy won't be repeated.
@Vixen Lunastra incomplete information is fake information. Mating period. Also, most people eat at McDonald's, which isn't much different from eating shit. What's wrong with elephant pregnancy?
As a filipino, I appreciate you including the last part. The Igorots are one of the most beautiful tribes here. I have always admired their culture and it pains me that they were subjected to the most inhumane things during the colonization. Thanks for this video!
@@jordantinucci3509 Well the Belgians literally put Congolese in zoos for their entertainment so the Igarots weren't the only ones suffering dehumanization during colonialism.
Small Trivia: Abe Saffron from the second story had a son called Alan Saffron. If that name sounds familiar, Alan was featured in Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares. The restaurant was 'Burger Kitchen' and is easily one of the craziest episodes of the show.
It's a fuckn disgrace that the cops covered up the Luna Park murders in favour of a Saffron kickback. I hope their souls burn in hell for what they did to those poor innocent families.
I lived up in an area really close to the Skylar Neese case and I was in high school during the time her murder happened. It was an absolute tragedy to the community and the area around it, an absolute shock because something like that hadn’t really happened before. That poor girl deserved a full, long life. RIP Skylar
Howdy neighbor! Just wanted to do a slight correction and say earlier during the 2011-2012 school year, another UHS student (along with his entire family) was murdered by a recent graduate of the other Morgantown-area high school, MHS. So no UHS student had taken another student’s life (and wouldn’t again until 2015, though that was ruled an “accident”), but it wasn’t exactly the first murder that UHS saw that year - it’s just the one that made a better Lifetime movie, I guess. Oh! And that same school year, somebody murdered a woman and left her body at UHS. 😬
There's probably a good reason for that. I remember a while back watching a documentary on this family. I don't remember much of the details, but I do remember there were issues between her and the father.
@@sprybug It was not until 1990 - when the book “White Christmas, Bloody Christmas” was published - that a claim of an incestuous relationship between Charlie and Marie surfaced. According to the story, Stella Lawson, a relative who had been interviewed for the book, called the author and said she had overheard Fannie’s sisters-in-law and aunts, including Stella’s mother, Jettie Lawson, discussing how Fannie had confided in them that she was concerned about an incestuous relationship between Charlie and Marie. (Copied and pasted from Southern Calls website)
@@didi012578 Yep, that's what it was. I couldn't recall 100%, so I decided not to include that in my comment since I couldn't quite remember the dynamic, but I was inclined to say that was it.
Fuck colonialism and imperialism, particularly shit like what the US did to the Philippines. Also, fun fact: Pennypacker, the hilariously named governor of Pennsylvania during the 1910s, based the then-new state police on the American military constabularies established to put down rebellions over there and directly hired veterans from their ranks to brutalise mine workers who tried to strike or unionise in the exact same way that they brutalised the Filipinos. The legacy of "riot control" over here is the same legacy as that of putting children on display as zoo animals.
Oh, a lot of people know about them, although I see many today have an inaccurate view of them. It really wasn't as bad as you believe; generally the people were paid and contracted to be temporarily exhibited before the public for a set amount of time before they returned to wherever they had come from. There were some cases where this wasn't the case, but they were a minority, were not general policy, and usually ended with some form of intervention on the behalf of the "kept" people.
@@ConvincingPeople What nonsense you are full of. Riot control is not part of some evil colonial legacy. I suppose you are going to also tell me the police are part of the legacy of slavery?😂 And what "shit" did the US do to the Philippines? You seem to think it stands out as extraordinary bad.
The cave diving story is heart breaking, but there is more to it that might make people feel better. If I remember correctly (some of this could be wrong feel free to google it) they tied a line to the man who dove down to get the body so that his body wouldn't be lost if he passed away too. They were able to pull him out along with the body of the other diver because they had gotten tangled together by the lines Lazy was talking about. The mother of the diver who had been stuck down there for years was able to bury her son and the diver who went down to get the body accomplished his goal, even in death.
@@jojolafrite90 And for the sake of that body, his whole family and all his friends have to grieve his life as well. It's hellishly tragic. There's nothing comforting for me in the idea that now two families had to bury loved ones. They didn't "bring them home." Bodies or no bodies, they never did come home.
@@FlamingSteed wait a minute... don’t you cause a lot problems in boere plaas? Also I have not seen or heard of another atheist South African other than my friend...
Killers: *are plotting a murder for months* Also Killers: *come up with stabbing... while telling their plan to people, leaving a text-message, do it at a place they and the victim were frequently at, fail to hide to body*
In real life, lots of criminals are so confident they’ll get away with murder that they slip up. Look at the Hay Poisoner. The moral of that story is, if you’re going to attempt to murder someone, make sure their father-in-law isn’t the local chemist! 🤦♀️
I'm a huge Frank Ocean fan, his music has helped me through some tough times and tracks like White Ferrari and Self Control are absolutely beautiful. Despite being so private, everything about him points to being just a really nice, kind person. I remember hearing the news of his brother's tragic death and I remember seeing that picture and it just hit me so hard. His brother is quite a bit younger than Frank so there are pictures of Frank giving him piggyback rides and stuff. Just absolutely heartbreaking.
Another creepy thing about the Lawson family portrait: The father of the family and his daughter (to his right) were apparently in an incestuous relationship and in this picture, she was pregnant with his child, something her mother was aware of.
I would have guessed that, actually. Thank you for the info. Incest is not uncommon with Narcissism (to one degree or another), and family annihilators ate all Narcissists.
I was looking for this comment. That poor family. Especially those poor little boys who were trying to hide. Their last sights on earth were of their father, whom was supposed to love and protect them, coming after them with a shotgun.
I don’t believe the daughter had a willing relationship like that with the father for a second..Men like that take what they want. And women were ALWAYS made to look bad when they were the victims of men. No matter how sick a man was somehow someway a woman did something to trigger violence in a man. The mother surely knew but back then what power did she actually have to stop it that wouldn’t end up with her being hanged, jailed and having her other children taken from her? Not defending her but when you look at what that man did to his family and how she wasn’t spared it looks like she was powerless no matter what. Show respect for the daughter that young lady most likely did nothing wrong, instead of continuing to make her look bad with the male invented narrative so common especially back then.
@@drabnail777 I wouldn’t say fake; I have no idea why he pointed out the bedpost if the person taking the picture was behind the camera. It’s a weird story, sure, but I wouldn’t say that was a figure. Also, Lazy usually has great quality videos, so that isn’t “usual” of him
I don't understand why people do cave diving. It's just so terrifying, I can't comprehend why people would commit to such a thing. I'd rather go skydiving than cave diving.
I love diving and even have advanced certification, but everyone of my instructors always emphasized how crazy cave diving is. No thanks, I’m claustrophobic. I love the freedom of diving int the open ocean, not getting trapped in a cave.
I audibly said "What the fuck?" when the human zoo part came up. I wasn't expecting something so inhumane and atrocious to be included here. And compared to other history, so RECENT.
Yes it is inhumane but it was also controversial in that time, there were a lot of protests And backlash. And some of them of these people were actually who were paid and leave at the end of the day.
Another related topic i'd suggest looking into is Saartjie, or Sarah Baartman. Its a horrible story but one that shows the realities that colonized people faced
@@wilderulz that -tjie at the end of Saar- is a common ‘verkleining’ in Afrikaans... by any chance is That a South African person? Edit: Never mind, a quick google search confirmed my thoughts... and I don’t want to delve too deep, but it does seem atrocious, I can sorta see why I didn’t learn about her in history class.
I babysat Skylar when she was a young child. She was so full of life & had many dreams for her future. Very strong willed but not in a bad way. She would have been such a blessing to anyone she crossed paths with. I hope those awful girls spend everyday in pure guilt & every night haunted by their actions.
They won’t because they’re female. They were given light sentences and are being treated with kid gloves. They’ll be paroled when they’re still young and have plenty of life left. If it were two boys they’d never see the light of day again.
She could have also been awkward, shy, lazy, annoying, wussy, whiny, and a buzz kill to be around... Someone doesn't have to have popular characteristics for their life to be valued, and memory to be cherished. I hope people remember her as a whole person- not just the good.
I remember a pet of that episode, where Alan gives Ramsey a book he wrote about his father called Gentle Satan. It comes up later where Ramsey reads out a line from the book that says something along the lines of “My father would do anything to get what he wanted, especially in his business ventures…” (not the exact quote, sorry) and, to me at least, really confirms that he was the one to set the fire.
I can"t believe that the lady in the apartment now is doing whar she is doing. How gross, I fully understand thar 'death/murder tourism' is a thing...but she could at least have a littl tact. like, maybe get rid of the supposed Chucky/Bride of Chucky dolls.
7:18 On the Mongolian immurement, the woman was supposedly sentenced to death for adultery. According to the photographer, Albert Kahn, "Initially, the bowls on the ground had water in them, though was not intentionally refilled, and the person inside was allowed to beg for food which often just prolonged their suffering as they generally didn’t get enough food for the passersby. The photographer had to leave her in the box because it would be against a prime directive of anthropologists to intervene in another culture’s law and order system."
@Lancelot they didn't say they didn't help the lady bc they were afraid for their lives, they said they didn't do it bc it was against anthropologists directive. There's a difference between these two things
I’ve read quite a bit about the “Walling In” punishment in Mongolia. The Mongolian people lived in a transient culture, which is why they didn’t build static structures like prisons. The prisoners received regular food from their families, and most such persons were imprisoned at most for a couple of weeks.
The photo of the man in costume with horns was actually taken at Circular Quay, a ferry terminal that serviced Luna Park. Circular Quay is on the foreshore of Sydney harbour and Luna Park is across the water.
We have to remember though, December 1929 was the beginning of the Great Depression. This probably was the trigger point for Charles to murder his family. Back during this time the common thought was the man was supposed to care for the family, and he probably lost everything when the Depression hit. Throw in the holidays and Great Depression on top of that, Charles was probably depressed (something not understood), and this lead to familicide. Very sad case indeed!
I also thought about this in the context of the brother turning the house into an exhibit. If a poor dust bowl farmer in the Great Depression loses his brother, sister in law, and 6 nieces and nephews all in one day, I can’t really blame him for at least trying to get a little cash out of such a terrible circumstance 🤷🏽♂️
This was also the year of a massive stock market crash, theres a chance he lost everything and thought sending his family to heaven (a common belief for the time) was better than watching them starve.
That Mongolian one is unbelievable. What a horrific way to die. And the family portrait too. The fact that the father did the unthinkable, and that his own brother capitalized upon it is absolutely digusting.
21:44 made me tear up. We were taught this in high school, and our teacher talked about how the captured people of the Igorot suffered in the cold climate of America. "Benevolent assimilation" is a lie.
I bet nowadays, if you were a high school student here in Iowa or any other "red state", that teacher of yours would get in trouble for teaching "critical race theory" 🥴 there's no greater crime against our country than banishing uncomfortable history in the name of "patriotism"
The sentences in the first case seem really light. The two murderers will be able to likely have a very long life, and they hardly seem remorseful it seems. So sad.
@@Lobsterwithinternet to be fair eventhough they are up for parole. Skylars father has made it his mission to turn up at every parole hearing and testify against their release. If they are released they will have someone with a grudge gunning for them and its justified imo.
Oddly enough like 2 days ago I had a rather creepy experience of my own. My kids were feeling scared that night and my partner was tired so I went and slept in their room on the couch. I start to fall asleep and it felt like my hair kept going in my face irritating the eye area. In my half asleep state I swept my hand across my face and began to fall asleep again when something poked my face. I gasped and sat up, I was about to ask if ot was any of the boys when I noticed they were fast asleep and I knew they would have never been able to make to their bed and pretend to be asleep in time for me to not see so I just kinda sat there confused. My mom recently passed away some months back so apart of me wonders if it was her but then I'm like "yea but she wouldn't just poke my face like that" but then maybe she was like "hey I wonder if an alive person will feel if I touch them"
I had something similar happen to me a couple years ago when I was also trying to sleep when I felt something put its mouth on my arm and I remember I could even feel it's teeth. I was half laying on my arm and the "bite" was on an awkward position. there is something that the brain sometimes does during the stages of you falling asleep but i cant think of what its called. you probably experienced that and hopefully no one was actually in your house or maybe we're both haunted by ghosts 🤷♀
I am so disturbed by the last photo with that sweet baby girl. I have seen others placed in "human zoos" before, but this picture kills me. we were and are such monsters. :(
Those children on the left at 22:30 look like they’re starving, based on their distended abdomens. These people must’ve been denied their humanity on every level. So tragic.
"Just three girls, being goofy for the camera right?" NO LAZY, WHY WOULD I CLICK ON THE VIDEO IN THAT CASE!?? Lmao, jk! Love your videos man! Keep em coming ❤️
The David Shaw part was pretty incorrect factually. :( They didn't know each other, and it was a very prepared for dive, but it was a very deep dive and very complex.
@@phoenixdundee Yeah, I find that in general, Lazy's videos are not always that well researched and often lack important context. I think this is true for most channels that focus more on "horror" and "disturbing" and "creepy" factors than the true crime aspects. These guys are used to just reading fiction masquerading as truth from Reddit users. No shade to these creators, but this is just what I've noticed. They still put a great effort into the production of their videos otherwise. If you want to hear more about literally any of the stories in this video, for example, you can find more in-depth videos on other channels that are dedicated to covering true crime or real life disasters.
As someone who is heavily into these style/subject videos I just want to say I REALLY appreciate the research you had to do to find photos that others have not covered or others like me haven't heard of yet. Frank Ocean is my FAVORITE artist and I never seen that particular photo. Thank you, and you have gained a follower.
IKR highly disturbing 😢 if you search for human zoos documentary there’s a good video about it from one of the discovery channels I watched it about a year ago but it’s simply heartbreaking.
Studying & Researching I do a lot of; Isn't it the absolute limit? There isn't but a few island or land indigenous people we haven't decimated; Many tribes unto their own race, were completely eliminated from this earth.

But for this one man in this story who glory to God returns the people & did at least some penitence for his crime.
@@williamsmitherson2170 yeah his story was a huge part of the documentary it was horrifying just to hear these things were actually done 😢 I think his name was Ota Benga not gonna make much difference mind you considering it’s only one letter off lol.
I always wonder if i would be ok with them if i was born and raised during that time period, or if i would be as indignant about them as i am now. Hard to say. How much of our morality comes from ourselves and how much comes from our culture and era?
The story behind the last picture is so tragic. Even though that poor child may have survived, her life would forever be ruined by that traumatizing experience.
You’re leaving a bit out with the second photo. There was an unauthorized parade through the park, with an entire group of masked individuals. Not just the masked man in the photo.
Happy to be corrected here but I believe the photo (while taken on the same day the boy died) was shot during the parade but the parade itself was held at Circular Quay, which on the other side of Sydney Harbour (roughly 5 km’s away). The parade and it’s participants were never anywhere near Luna Park.
There was a very in-depth documentary about the Luna Park arson on the ABC channel in Australia. It was most likely arson. There were many witnesses that have pointed to a Bikie gang hired by Saffron that lit the back of the ghost ride. There was a massive issue with corruption in NSW at the time in politics and police (probably still is honestly to some degree) that had a lot to do with real estate.
@@mikenayers5981 Basically. It is weird in the old-fashioned sense of the word that the last photo ever taken of this poor kid was with a silent street performer in a particularly eerie costume who just kind of posed with him and went on his way, but it's ultimately just a strange, sad coincidence, maybe a kind of omen, rather than a matter of any malfeasance on the part of the stranger. The guy's probably perfectly nice, if he's still around.
I can't imagine a more horrifying death than getting stuck/lost deep underwater and knowing your oxygen is running out, that your body will end up as just another lost corpse floating down somewhere in eternal darkness. :(
As for the way in which the Lawsons were dressed, it's largely forgotten in modern times that having ones photograph made was quite an important (rare and expensive) occasion. Photographers' studios were equipped with backdrops, props, and huge wardrobes to dress up the sitters to look as good as possible. They almost certainly changed from overalls and other rags into the photographer's studio suits & dresses, had the portrait made, then got back into their own clothes. I have a couple of late nineteenth, early twentieth century family portraits where this was the case. ADDENDUM: I made my comment before watching the remainder of the segment. You covered everything I said.....plus, explained that, in this instance, Charles Lawson had acquired the wardrobe himself. That'll teach me a thing or two about impulsivity! 😄
There's also the fact that back then, you had to sit for a very long time to get a picture taken, so you had to keep your face still to void blurriness. You had only one shot at it... You can't make a big smile and keep your visage still for long... But that's only part of the explanation; in the 1930s, family pictures were still influenced by portraits. When you pose for a painting, you tend not to grin and to keep a solemn expression. So it was a mix of technology and culture; look up wedding pictures from that era, everyone has their poker face on.
I appreciate the compassion my Brutha Lazy conveys while speaking on the suffering of others. The last story about the little Filipina is a great example. I'm glad the handler in that last story was made to pay for his inhumane treatment of the people he displayed. It would've been better if he were given a stricter sentence than the measly 18 months, but it's better than nothing.
What makes the picture scarier is when you realize that the Canaanite god of fire, Moloch, is depicted as a cow and in the bible, worship of Moloch entailed human sacrifice. Pretty scary shit Edit: not just human sacrifice but sacrifice of children
@@soulbot9661 Don't forget that the child sarcifices were most often burned alive in a special furnace built to look like Moloch himself. These furnaces had 7 chambers (the number of victims). Also, Moloch wasn't just depicted as a cow, but as a man with a bull's head. It's totally plausible that a group of cultists/a single cultist have decided to satiate their God's hunger in a current modern setting.

I recently watched a documentary series of the Luna park fire. It was eye opening. For anyone in Australia you can check it out on ABC iview. Also the photo wasn’t taken at the park. It was taken earlier in the day before they got there
I stared at it for a long time… I finally made my way to the comment section. So I brightened my phone screen and I zoomed in and lo and behold. There is a face but it’s tilted to the side. That’s why it took me so long to see it… Now I can’t unsee it and I have to sleep with the lights on.

a bit disappointed by the inaccuracy with deon's story ngl.... they weren't friends, dave just felt for deon and his family and felt like he should try to recover the body himself per family's wishes to give deon a proper burial.
Then you should be just as disappointed in not understanding how in gematria (A=1, B=2, C=3) "Frank Ocean" = 88. His brother died 88 days from Frank's birthday.
@@chigozietruth and i take a shit almost every day, some days which i am certain are somehow numerically "important". maybe i need to pick through it to try to tell the future
I think if I remember this story correctly, Deon came up to the surface once, and then went back down for the body. I am sure part of him felt like this wasn't going to be successful but he was so involved by that point he had no choice
Thanks for this nice video, being a native igorot myself, the last photo was indeed sickening and dehumanizing to me and my people, however it also nice to see that human zoos are forgotten and reviled by most people when brought up. It's also a good thing that the last photo ironically has the best ending.
Fun fact: Abe Saffron’s son Alan was on kitchen nightmares. His restaurant failed because him and his wife were lunatics. He apparently wrote a book about how bad his father was, but he left Alan and all his kids a large sum of money.
I remember that episode was it the one about hamburger dinner that forced the son to work for free? i think the money wasnt from the father but from the grandfather and the father actually made the son take it out of his inheritance to buy the burger shop and work in there even when alan's son didnt wanted nothing to do with it. Amazing after you know that the father wrote a book about how his father forced him to follow his steps.
The Zach and Auddie story hits me different because when I was in New Orleans years ago and I did a ghost tour with my dad and our guide told us this story. I couldn’t find it on google and at the time so I brushed it off at the time. It’s crazy how something so tragic that you would think it’s fake for such a long time find out that there was proof that those people existed.
The first story gets even darker. Sheila not only helped look for her victim but became very close with the family and even lived with them in Skylar’s bedroom. It terrible to listen to a murder like this but to hear the later details it shows that the “hatred” the girls had for Skyler, was completely mutual. Sheila was jealous of Skylar and wanted to be her; so she “became” her. Very dark indeed
I say this every time I hear about Skylar’s case, I will never forget her name and I hope that her parents find peace. Their grief was devastating and I know nothing anyone says or does will make it better. Rest in paradise Skylar!❤️
@Maria Sweety Hotgirl - Vlogs Oh wow! Was the parade there a daily thing like at Disney or was it a special occasion? I like learning more about cases.
I remember reading about that case where the boyfriend chopped up his girlfriend and cooked her. Apparently they lived above a voodoo shop in new Orleans and many people speculate it's related to the death.
Maybe, but I feel someone disturbed enougj to plan out and then enact this would probably have found a reason. If no local voodoo shop it would have been a song, or a movie, or the voices in his head.
It was a place called the Voodoo temple but no one truly believes that had anything to do with it. They were raging alcoholics that spent their nights getting high and drunk. He had PTSD from 2 tours in Iraq and she was bipolar. Everyone who knew them believed it was a matter of time before something tragic would happen. Addie would blow up out of nowhere and get violent, not just with Zack but also with her friends. After Katrina, they had to get back to normal life and pay bills. That stressed them both out and Zack also had responsibilities to his 2 kids from his marriage that Addie resented. It all came to a head when she found out he was cheating on her. She blew up on him and he lost it.
@Joseppi Diaz honestly, the way he cut it off is what made me look it up. Everyone has their issues and I guess he didn't feel comfortable talking about Addie and Zack's. It might have been a time thing, too. To summarize 2 people's lives and their tragic ends (the way I did, for example) comes off cold. He may not have felt comfortable briefly explaining their backgrounds without detail but then realized it would add 20 minutes to the video or something so he just left it completely alone. I agree that people put too much stock in Voodoo and other beliefs whenever they can. Most things usually just come down to people just being people.
@@whitecatblackcat7551 you're welcome. It is very sad. He never got treatment for his ptsd and she either took her meds sporadically or was never diagnosed (saw 2 different stories regarding her bipolar). Either way, they were 2 people just trying to figure things out like the rest of us and it ended about as tragically as it possibly could.
Depends on the type, if the people in them CHOOSE to be and everything is consensual then no problem. Some people have quirks about their body or things they're able to do that they want to show off for money and others want to see out of curiosity. The people who were stolen and forced into it are a different story altogether, though, it's beyond monstrous.
Same as someone who’s half Filipino it made me tear up. It’s just so sad how our people and indigenous people were treated by those who weren’t even native to the land. I don’t know much about my Filipino side, but it always feels like a punch to a gut when learning about these things.
@@ZeeNastee There is a very big difference between modern freakshow acts run by self-described freaks as a celebration of their oddity and the deliberate exploitation of the impoverished, particularly colonial subjects whose payment was essentially the most meagre possible compensation for the systematic destruction of their way of life and their abuse at the hands of their oppressors. I wouldn't even compare the two despite their shared DNA.
@@lovelyllee2020 You should take time to learn about it, the more you know about your own history the better it will be for you and those who follow after you. No one's history outside of what's been mostly cleaned up will be taught in schools
I'm from New Orleans Louisiana. Lived here my entire life.... Katrina was just horrible & alot of people around that time started having mental breakdowns. I have never heard this story tho.. WOW .. thank you for all your amazing stories
As a native Igorot, this is pretty heartbreaking. These pictures could be a source of stereotypes that my people has to bear throughout the years. Both local filipinos and international foreigners. Whenever someone that is not from our tribe hear the name "Igorot"; the first thing they could think about is that we are backward savages who cuts people heads with tails hanging out our butts. In the case of foreigners, I've seen advertisements in this time period depicting my people as dog eaters. Which is pretty infuriating because this stereotype didn't just put our tribe in a bad name, it also spread to other Filipinos too. Fun fact to those reading this : "Igorot" is a general term for the tribes found in the Cordillera mountains of the Philippines. There is not one type of Igorot tribe. Each tribe has their distinct language, costumes, and beliefs. The colored picture of four girls is from the Ibaloi tribe. That is the tribe that closely related to my family . The tatooed men might have been from the Kalinga or Bontok ( as these are fond of tattooing. Google "Apo wang-Od" to learn more). Bontok tribes are said to be tough but they are pretty respectful with women. In fact, Bontok culture is the only culture where the word "rape" doesn't exist. It just shows that our culture is far more colorful and complex than what history depicted us to be. Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk. Peace out.
Theory: maybe the guy in the amusement park photo is simply eccentric or some kind of street performer, and he hasn't come forward because he either doesn't know that he's part of a mystery or he's afraid of being considered a person of interest in the incident.
This honestly wouldn't surprise me in the least. It's a very eye-catching and strange costume, very hard to forget, and anyone familiar with the operation of the park likely would have found such a figure just walking about a tad suspicious or at least odd. Some sort of performance artist seems as likely as anything else.
As a Filipino myself, that last one shocked me the most. Even now, the natives here are more prone to discrimination though not like this. Some of them still lives almost the same life as they had in the past. Some are begging in cities specially during christmas season.
actually he has good content. His sense of humor is unique. The thing is he has the same thing like Seth Macfarlene: not everyone is ok with his opinions and humor. He expresses his thoughts about politics and religion freely even though it was a taboo to critisize religion that harsh. and some would of course not be ok with it. For me he is kind of like a guilty pleasure. He definitely has some videos to make one laugh, or think, or sometimes even trigger, and of course some that even im finding hard to be ok with. Still a good one though, you would know what I mean if you belonged to our culture and understood our language.

I find it scary how in the cave diving story, he suddenly got tangled as he tried to escape. It’s like the dead body’s spirit wasn’t letting go of him because it didn’t want to be left behind again.
Projection. Imagine all the equipment and ropes and tubes involved between the two of them. In an inclosed space it’s not hard to imagine not to mention over 700 feet under water in a cave system. If I was a diver and lost that way I wouldn’t want anyone to risk getting me just to put me in the ground.
This isn’t even that implausible, ghost part aside real people who know that they’re about to die alone have tried to get others to stay with them even if it means sharing the same fate.
At 11:30 ,it actually says that he "turned the house into a morbid tourist attraction" People of course were attracted. How macabre. No respect at all. Btw Lazy ,Great upload. Thanks for distracting me on a VERY quiet birthday. Dec 17.
Not just you, I don't see anything either. And weird house noises are why it's good to have a pet; you can blame anything strange on them, and save your sanity. ;)
You always manage to dig up something I haven't heard of. I had heard about the Zach & Addie case but not that their rooms had been turned into a schlocky tourist attraction (ugh). I only recently learned about human zoos, and have never seen that photograph; yet another footnote in history that was shamefully hidden.
You have got the best narrating voice, and I love watching your great compilations alone at night! Great work and truly appreciated :) Oh my goodness, those last photos of the children and others being displayed in a zoo is truly heartbreaking. Just another example of how completely deranged society has always been !

Here from the future, currently Rachel Shoaf will have her first parole hearing in May 2023, just a few weeks from now, and the Neese family has started petitions to deny Rachel's parole. It's so heartbreaking that any of this happened in the first place.
Look. It is entirely possible to be a spooky ghost cosplay dude who may or may not be a murderous arsonist and also be jacked and tanned. Sometimes scary people are also coincidentally kinda hot. It's a sad fact of life that we all have to confront one day.
@7:48 A literal nightmare. I was just watching a documentary with my Mother about a serial killer that kept a woman locked in a box under his bed. No way, I'd rather die than submit.
That Luna Park horned guy is scary-hot. GodDAMN, that entire Lawson family looks possessed. That Frank Ocean one gave me a serious sad; the last one gave me an even bigger one. 😯
For the Lawson Family murders, it's believed that the father had gotten his eldest daughter pregnant and thought it was best to get rid of his whole family than live with that shame.
Looks like a guy peeking out from behind the door. He must be running out of photos though since there was no creepy backstory or followup for that one or the other reddit photos
Yeah took me a second too, whatever it is it certainly isn't a ghost because GHOSTS DONT EXIST, I'm so glad my brain can distinguish between fantasy and reality.
It's getting harder and harder to track down interesting photos, but these types of videos sure are fun to make.
Thanks dude these stories always entertain me

Greetings
I love how the thumbnail circles the child and not the cow demon
That's weird, I thought cow demons were common.
Kids are horrifying
Children are way more disgusting, that's why.
As a cow demon I find this offensive
Maybe the real demon was the child we meet along the way
the fact that that guy sent his son away because he KNEW he would try to protect his family (and might succeed) is the most infuriating part for me. he did everything he could to make sure his young family was as vulnerable as they could possibly be. they had no chance.
I think he was just tired of all the responsibility of so many children. We don't have much information on it. It would be hard to support so many people when you are poor especially during that period. We don't know how the relationship between them was, whether there was always tension and friction. It would have been a very hard life for the children after his suicide. So he must have not wanted for the others to suffer because of him abandoning everything so he decided to kill them too. I can see that happening.
Him doing it just for the joy of murder is a bit unbelievable cause he could have just gone and shot up random people and even managed to get away if he escaped and continue with his life. Doubt, the police at that time had enough materials like CCTV cameras and forensic equipment to catch him if he got away. If he kills his own family there is no way or place for him to escape. He is basically signing his name as the biggest suspect.
So, I don't think he was happy about having to do that, or as the narrator said 'he wanted to take a picture with the victims to show off'' and be remembered.
@@Omkar.Gawade - when I heard the date of when the “familicide” took place, I realized it was only a couple months after Black Tuesday happened, which was the beginning of the Great Depression.
I’m not sure if this connects as a potential theory for why Charles decided to do what he did, but it might be noteworthy as he had seven children and a wife to support as a relatively new farm owner. I can only imagine what went through his mind if and/or when he learned about the stock market crash.
I personally theorize that Charles feel into a deep depression because he knew their farm was about to be dried up from a lack of sales (and unable to afford irrigation and seeds). Maybe he saw no hope for his, his wife, and (most) of his children’s futures.
Though, I could be bias with that theory because my mom’s side of the family told her and me about what it was like living through the Great Depression. I wouldn’t want to have lived through any year in that period. It’s truly tragic.
@@MS-dc2tt Yes, but even the time this happened it would have been very controversial and people would have many different theories. Only if you were to have personally known him before the incident would you have any idea of what might have happened. There could be all kinds of problems in their relationships them being a family of 10 would make it even more complex. There might have been all kinds of abuse and other things happening. You won't find this information even at that time. Let alone online after 100 years. Most of it would be speculation.
@@hciapetus1251 Yeah seems plausible. I think he just tired of living. He had 7 children and only 1 is a man that could help him work for the family. Feels like he decide to kill himself and take his family with him while sparing his eldest son because out of them all he is the one with the highest chance to survive alone.

@@nickthelick yes he did, it was a very good video.
@@nickthelick I knew I'd seen a video about her somewhere before. What a horrific case.
I actually babysat her when she was just a small child (6-8yrs old). She was so full of life, always energetic & always so excited to tell you about her dreams. I still have a couple cards & pictures she made for me before I moved away. I got to see her a few years later as a preteen & remember how happy I was that she still maintained the happy & eager to live a full & exciting life. She had so much more to offer this world & would have achieved so very much had her life not been taken. One find memory I have is one evening spent playing 'Punk Princesses' where we dressed up in tutus, fishnets, awful neon makeup & took out some bad guy dragons. Bc we were so hardcore & bad butt we beat the knights to the dragons.
She had an amazingly awesome personality with an attitude & imagination to rival it. I hate that the world was robbed of such an awesome soul.
This girl seriously put up a RIP post for someone that was still missing...
gEnIUs
I didn't even think of that, good point
So glad I wasn't the only person that noticed this, that was such a dumb thing for her to say
"planned for months"
No, that's what I thought too based on this video. But she was killed on July 6, 2012. She was found on Jan 16, 2013, and the post is from March 13, 2013. Apparently she randomly posted something 2 months after Skylar was found instead of the next day after she went missing (which is said in the video when the post is shown).
She was active on Twitter until the day her friend got sentenced on May 1, 2013 (months after confessing about what they did). Shelia was publicly identified as the second killer in September 2013, got her sentence in January 2014 and was tried as an adult.
The Luna Park fire was an absolute tragedy. There were actually witnesses who told police about some bikie types heard discussing using kerosene to start the fire. These witnesses were young kids from the local youth refuge. After they made their statements, the police returned to the refuge a few hours later to re-interview them. The kids were then threatened by different police into changing their statements, then actually charged with lying to police.
Other witnesses were ignored and disregarded at the corenors inquest.
Everyone in Australia KNOWS it was Abe Saffron that was behind the fire, and he was aided by corrupt police.
Some girls were meeting the young boys who were killed that night, but the father of one girl told them not to go, as something bad was going to happen. Her father was a well known corrupt cop who was really good friends with Abe. So its clear that he knew beforehand what was going on.
A documentary on ABCTV Australia was shown earlier this year, which uncovered all this information, AND MORE!! One witness, who was a teenager at the time of the fire, and who made the statements to police ( he was from the refuge) still lives in fear of his life due to threats by police at the time.
Abe went on to buy the land after the fire through a shell company owned by members of his family, and sold nearly all the rides etc. It was all over the waterfront position of the park , which was worth millions of dollars.
Luna Park is still up and running to this day, but it will never be the same as before the tragedy. The families of the victims were told a memorial would be put at the site, but nothing was ever done.
At the end of the day, 6 innocent children, and an innocent man died, all as a result of a handful of greedy people. May the victims all rest in peace, and my ongoing condolences to the loved ones. This should NEVER be forgotten!💔🌹
A heads up about the photo of the boy killed in the Luna Park fire (with the masked man). That photo was not taken inside Luna Park. It was taken roughly 5 km’s away at Circular Quay (another popular tourist spot and meeting place in Sydney) The man (in the mask) was part of a parade at Circular Quay on that day, the parade itself was not near or had any involvement with Luna Park.
For real? Okay that's not even a minor detail; that completely obliterates any possible affiliation between the masked man and the tragedy.
The first case with the teenage girls. He narrate the story as if Sheila made the tweet while Skylar is still missing. That tweet was from March 2013, Skylar died on July 2012 and Rachel confess on January 2013.

@@TheSilverwing999 It sucks more than a bit. As a parent the more I think about it, the more I realize how furious I would be to find that someone used a photo of my (dead) kid to craft some creepy mystery thing, for fun, and maybe for money. In fact, when you think of all the tragedies that have felled young children and all the public outrage that the parents invariably face, how they should have protected their kids, no matter how unlikely they could have predicted what followed, you could construe this LIE as if the parents allowed a creepy stranger in a mask to get near their kid, here's the photographic evidence, and that guy may have had something to do with the death. I don't know how anybody got hold of this photo in the first place, but it sure gives credence to the paranoia about what you post on social media and whatever, because someone took advantage of the date stamp to totally reconfigure that day. As for Lazy, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, like HOPEFULLY he at least found reference to this "story" from multiple sources, so had some tangible reason to trust it. But honestly, this highlights a problem with these multi-story uploads; what do you do if one of them turns out to be shamefully false? Just remove the whole thing? I don't know, but he should do something.
David Shaw and Deon Dreyer weren’t ever friends. Deon was 20 when he died in 94’. Everyone who dived at Bushman’s Hole knew about his body and kept an eye out for it. Shaw set a record of diving the deepest in the cave and found his body near the bottom. He then came back with a very well thought out recovery plan not long after as the parents deeply wanted their son’s remains. Tragic story, there’s a good doc out there on it.

I actually lived in the building next door to Zach and Addie when that happened. I don't know if I ever met Zach but I remember Addie would always sit outside and greet everyone that passed with a smile and a "hello" and then would typically ask if she could bum a cigarette. That's why in that photo of their stove, the top is covered in cigarettes, dollar bills, booze, and pills. Everybody who knew her stopped by to bum her one last smoke/buck/whatever. She was a sweet spirit and a true New Orleanian. R.I.P.
She looked like a real winner.

It's possibly the most helpless he's ever felt, losing his brother like that and knowing he couldn't do anything at the time.

Dave Shaw didn't know Dion. He saw the body on a previous dive and promised the family of Dion he would recover the body. It was a well planned dive, but as you eluded too, when Dave tried to move Dions body he became entangled and while struggling to get free got the Martinis (Nitrogen narcosis). He knew he was going to die and sent a message up the rope to his friend higher up that he wasn't coming back. A few hours later Dave and Dion's bodies floated back to the surface. So he achieved his goal of returning Dions body to his family, at the cost of his own life.
There should be a film of Dave's life, he was an incredible guy.
There actually is a film about him! It's called Dave Never Coming Back, I believe. It's a very harrowing watch when you know how it ends, and it's very well done.
Netflix had it, called Dave Not Coming Back. Very sad.
Dave Not Coming Back is on RUclips. The bodies didn't float up, they were tangled in the lines and when the other recovery divers began pulling the lines back up to recover the spare diving tanks, both bodies came up as well.
I don't think we should lionize people who throw their lives away to recover a dead body. The more he's made out to be a hero for that, the more misguided people will think to emulate him. Tragedies like this can multiply if we let them.
If someone dies in a dangerous place, that is where they chose to rest. Leave them in peace.
Dave didn't send the "Daves not coming back message" it was Don Shirley, his dive partner who sent the message up.

Howdy neighbor! Just wanted to do a slight correction and say earlier during the 2011-2012 school year, another UHS student (along with his entire family) was murdered by a recent graduate of the other Morgantown-area high school, MHS. So no UHS student had taken another student’s life (and wouldn’t again until 2015, though that was ruled an “accident”), but it wasn’t exactly the first murder that UHS saw that year - it’s just the one that made a better Lifetime movie, I guess. Oh! And that same school year, somebody murdered a woman and left her body at UHS. 😬

According to the story, Stella Lawson, a relative who had been interviewed for the book, called the author and said she had overheard Fannie’s sisters-in-law and aunts, including Stella’s mother, Jettie Lawson, discussing how Fannie had confided in them that she was concerned about an incestuous relationship between Charlie and Marie.

Fuck colonialism and imperialism, particularly shit like what the US did to the Philippines. Also, fun fact: Pennypacker, the hilariously named governor of Pennsylvania during the 1910s, based the then-new state police on the American military constabularies established to put down rebellions over there and directly hired veterans from their ranks to brutalise mine workers who tried to strike or unionise in the exact same way that they brutalised the Filipinos. The legacy of "riot control" over here is the same legacy as that of putting children on display as zoo animals.
@@ConvincingPeople With or without colonialism such immoral things would be happening. However colonialism brought civilization.
Oh, a lot of people know about them, although I see many today have an inaccurate view of them. It really wasn't as bad as you believe; generally the people were paid and contracted to be temporarily exhibited before the public for a set amount of time before they returned to wherever they had come from. There were some cases where this wasn't the case, but they were a minority, were not general policy, and usually ended with some form of intervention on the behalf of the "kept" people.
@@ConvincingPeople What nonsense you are full of. Riot control is not part of some evil colonial legacy. I suppose you are going to also tell me the police are part of the legacy of slavery?😂 And what "shit" did the US do to the Philippines? You seem to think it stands out as extraordinary bad.
The cave diving story is heart breaking, but there is more to it that might make people feel better. If I remember correctly (some of this could be wrong feel free to google it) they tied a line to the man who dove down to get the body so that his body wouldn't be lost if he passed away too. They were able to pull him out along with the body of the other diver because they had gotten tangled together by the lines Lazy was talking about. The mother of the diver who had been stuck down there for years was able to bury her son and the diver who went down to get the body accomplished his goal, even in death.
He still died a horrible lonely death in the dark lonely crushing depth next to the decomposed body of his friend.
The mother also felt incredibly guilty for years that she caused the diver to die - Mr Ballen did an amazing job at covering this case
@@jojolafrite90 And for the sake of that body, his whole family and all his friends have to grieve his life as well. It's hellishly tragic. There's nothing comforting for me in the idea that now two families had to bury loved ones. They didn't "bring them home." Bodies or no bodies, they never did come home.

Killers: *are plotting a murder for months*
Also Killers: *come up with stabbing... while telling their plan to people, leaving a text-message, do it at a place they and the victim were frequently at, fail to hide to body*
real life criminals are based on cliché movie villains
Not all killers are the exact same.
Also, teenagers aren’t known for their detailed planning.
In real life, lots of criminals are so confident they’ll get away with murder that they slip up. Look at the Hay Poisoner. The moral of that story is, if you’re going to attempt to murder someone, make sure their father-in-law isn’t the local chemist! 🤦♀️
Literal teenagers are generally not very good at murder, if history tells us anything.
I'm a huge Frank Ocean fan, his music has helped me through some tough times and tracks like White Ferrari and Self Control are absolutely beautiful. Despite being so private, everything about him points to being just a really nice, kind person. I remember hearing the news of his brother's tragic death and I remember seeing that picture and it just hit me so hard. His brother is quite a bit younger than Frank so there are pictures of Frank giving him piggyback rides and stuff. Just absolutely heartbreaking.
Another creepy thing about the Lawson family portrait: The father of the family and his daughter (to his right) were apparently in an incestuous relationship and in this picture, she was pregnant with his child, something her mother was aware of.
I would have guessed that, actually. Thank you for the info. Incest is not uncommon with Narcissism (to one degree or another), and family annihilators ate all Narcissists.
I was looking for this comment. That poor family. Especially those poor little boys who were trying to hide. Their last sights on earth were of their father, whom was supposed to love and protect them, coming after them with a shotgun.
Oh goody. More screwed up stuff.
Is it really so difficult for everyone to be nice to each other?
I don’t believe the daughter had a willing relationship like that with the father for a second..Men like that take what they want. And women were ALWAYS made to look bad when they were the victims of men. No matter how sick a man was somehow someway a woman did something to trigger violence in a man. The mother surely knew but back then what power did she actually have to stop it that wouldn’t end up with her being hanged, jailed and having her other children taken from her? Not defending her but when you look at what that man did to his family and how she wasn’t spared it looks like she was powerless no matter what.
Show respect for the daughter that young lady most likely did nothing wrong, instead of continuing to make her look bad with the male invented narrative so common especially back then.

“Doing it underwater.”
“YOU’RE A GENIUS!”

Cave diving is about as stupid as hiking alone. It rarely turns out well.
I love diving and even have advanced certification, but everyone of my instructors always emphasized how crazy cave diving is. No thanks, I’m claustrophobic. I love the freedom of diving int the open ocean, not getting trapped in a cave.
I audibly said "What the fuck?" when the human zoo part came up. I wasn't expecting something so inhumane and atrocious to be included here. And compared to other history, so RECENT.
Yes it is inhumane but it was also controversial in that time, there were a lot of protests And backlash.
And some of them of these people were actually who were paid and leave at the end of the day.

I babysat Skylar when she was a young child. She was so full of life & had many dreams for her future. Very strong willed but not in a bad way. She would have been such a blessing to anyone she crossed paths with. I hope those awful girls spend everyday in pure guilt & every night haunted by their actions.
For people like those, I imagine that the only regrets they had was not having a better plan, didn't sound like they have much remorse over it
They won’t because they’re female. They were given light sentences and are being treated with kid gloves. They’ll be paroled when they’re still young and have plenty of life left. If it were two boys they’d never see the light of day again.
One girl did seem sorry for what they did but the other - Skylars oldest friend - they say she never showed a shred of remorse. It makes me so sick...
Hope is for the weak.
She could have also been awkward, shy, lazy, annoying, wussy, whiny, and a buzz kill to be around... Someone doesn't have to have popular characteristics for their life to be valued, and memory to be cherished. I hope people remember her as a whole person- not just the good.

7:18 On the Mongolian immurement, the woman was supposedly sentenced to death for adultery.
According to the photographer, Albert Kahn,
"Initially, the bowls on the ground had water in them, though was not intentionally refilled, and the person inside was allowed to beg for food which often just prolonged their suffering as they generally didn’t get enough food for the passersby. The photographer had to leave her in the box because it would be against a prime directive of anthropologists to intervene in another culture’s law and order system."
Your last line left me utterly speachless and shocked
Thank you I was really wondering about the reason.
@Lancelot they didn't say they didn't help the lady bc they were afraid for their lives, they said they didn't do it bc it was against anthropologists directive. There's a difference between these two things
I’ve read quite a bit about the “Walling In” punishment in Mongolia. The Mongolian people lived in a transient culture, which is why they didn’t build static structures like prisons. The prisoners received regular food from their families, and most such persons were imprisoned at most for a couple of weeks.
The photo of the man in costume with horns was actually taken at Circular Quay, a ferry terminal that serviced Luna Park. Circular Quay is on the foreshore of Sydney harbour and Luna Park is across the water.
So he was just, like, demon cow Times Square Elmo?

@@jesso5409 It was most likely a job by the mob in a landownership and insurance scheme.
We have to remember though, December 1929 was the beginning of the Great Depression. This probably was the trigger point for Charles to murder his family. Back during this time the common thought was the man was supposed to care for the family, and he probably lost everything when the Depression hit. Throw in the holidays and Great Depression on top of that, Charles was probably depressed (something not understood), and this lead to familicide. Very sad case indeed!
I also thought about this in the context of the brother turning the house into an exhibit. If a poor dust bowl farmer in the Great Depression loses his brother, sister in law, and 6 nieces and nephews all in one day, I can’t really blame him for at least trying to get a little cash out of such a terrible circumstance 🤷🏽♂️

I start to fall asleep and it felt like my hair kept going in my face irritating the eye area. In my half asleep state I swept my hand across my face and began to fall asleep again when something poked my face. I gasped and sat up, I was about to ask if ot was any of the boys when I noticed they were fast asleep and I knew they would have never been able to make to their bed and pretend to be asleep in time for me to not see so I just kinda sat there confused. My mom recently passed away some months back so apart of me wonders if it was her but then I'm like "yea but she wouldn't just poke my face like that" but then maybe she was like "hey I wonder if an alive person will feel if I touch them"
I had something similar happen to me a couple years ago when I was also trying to sleep when I felt something put its mouth on my arm and I remember I could even feel it's teeth. I was half laying on my arm and the "bite" was on an awkward position. there is something that the brain sometimes does during the stages of you falling asleep but i cant think of what its called. you probably experienced that and hopefully no one was actually in your house or maybe we're both haunted by ghosts 🤷♀

You’re leaving a bit out with the second photo. There was an unauthorized parade through the park, with an entire group of masked individuals. Not just the masked man in the photo.
Happy to be corrected here but I believe the photo (while taken on the same day the boy died) was shot during the parade but the parade itself was held at Circular Quay, which on the other side of Sydney Harbour (roughly 5 km’s away). The parade and it’s participants were never anywhere near Luna Park.
There was a very in-depth documentary about the Luna Park arson on the ABC channel in Australia. It was most likely arson. There were many witnesses that have pointed to a Bikie gang hired by Saffron that lit the back of the ghost ride. There was a massive issue with corruption in NSW at the time in politics and police (probably still is honestly to some degree) that had a lot to do with real estate.
@@originalnilson So a parade of hooded pagans was basically wrong place at the wrong time, and added some creepy implications to every day mob shit.
@@mikenayers5981 Basically. It is weird in the old-fashioned sense of the word that the last photo ever taken of this poor kid was with a silent street performer in a particularly eerie costume who just kind of posed with him and went on his way, but it's ultimately just a strange, sad coincidence, maybe a kind of omen, rather than a matter of any malfeasance on the part of the stranger. The guy's probably perfectly nice, if he's still around.
The man looks to be dressed as an Oni, a horned demon from Japanese folklore.
I can't imagine a more horrifying death than getting stuck/lost deep underwater and knowing your oxygen is running out, that your body will end up as just another lost corpse floating down somewhere in eternal darkness. :(
That, along with being haunted by visions of your family and all the happy times you had together
Knowing that you'll never ever see them again
As for the way in which the Lawsons were dressed, it's largely forgotten in modern times that having ones photograph made was quite an important (rare and expensive) occasion. Photographers' studios were equipped with backdrops, props, and huge wardrobes to dress up the sitters to look as good as possible. They almost certainly changed from overalls and other rags into the photographer's studio suits & dresses, had the portrait made, then got back into their own clothes. I have a couple of late nineteenth, early twentieth century family portraits where this was the case.
ADDENDUM:
I made my comment before watching the remainder of the segment. You covered everything I said.....plus, explained that, in this instance, Charles Lawson had acquired the wardrobe himself. That'll teach me a thing or two about impulsivity! 😄
When you said “they found her head cooking in a pot” I nearly shit myself. Sheesh.
And the fact that some random woman is making it into a haunted house is just so disrespectful
Literally same
There seems to be a lot of pain and sadness in all of the Lawson family's expressions. No telling what they had already suffered through. RIP.
The father was probably abusive, and maybe him buying them fancy clothes was suspect
It was taken 4 months into the Great Depression... that's probably why they looking depressed
@@rkaye2009 .......................and that's probably only the tip of the iceberg.
There's also the fact that back then, you had to sit for a very long time to get a picture taken, so you had to keep your face still to void blurriness.
You had only one shot at it...
You can't make a big smile and keep your visage still for long...
But that's only part of the explanation; in the 1930s, family pictures were still influenced by portraits. When you pose for a painting, you tend not to grin and to keep a solemn expression.
So it was a mix of technology and culture; look up wedding pictures from that era, everyone has their poker face on.
I appreciate the compassion my Brutha Lazy conveys while speaking on the suffering of others. The last story about the little Filipina is a great example.
I'm glad the handler in that last story was made to pay for his inhumane treatment of the people he displayed. It would've been better if he were given a stricter sentence than the measly 18 months, but it's better than nothing.
The Luna Park photograph terrifies me.
What makes the picture scarier is when you realize that the Canaanite god of fire, Moloch, is depicted as a cow and in the bible, worship of Moloch entailed human sacrifice. Pretty scary shit
Edit: not just human sacrifice but sacrifice of children
@Andrew H Can’t deny that Moloch does some serious work on his core.
@@soulbot9661 Don't forget that the child sarcifices were most often burned alive in a special furnace built to look like Moloch himself. These furnaces had 7 chambers (the number of victims). Also, Moloch wasn't just depicted as a cow, but as a man with a bull's head. It's totally plausible that a group of cultists/a single cultist have decided to satiate their God's hunger in a current modern setting.

The Zach and Auddie story hits me different because when I was in New Orleans years ago and I did a ghost tour with my dad and our guide told us this story. I couldn’t find it on google and at the time so I brushed it off at the time. It’s crazy how something so tragic that you would think it’s fake for such a long time find out that there was proof that those people existed.
Never sat right with me that the house was turned into a horror attraction... Just felt wrong.
The first story gets even darker.
Sheila not only helped look for her victim but became very close with the family and even lived with them in Skylar’s bedroom.
It terrible to listen to a murder like this but to hear the later details it shows that the “hatred” the girls had for Skyler, was completely mutual.
Sheila was jealous of Skylar and wanted to be her; so she “became” her.
Very dark indeed
Just imagine unknowingly having your daughters killer living in her old bedroom
That last one is both heartbreaking and RAGE inducing!!!!
It's worse reading about the people they didn't send back, you should definitely look into them when your in the mood for some sad bits of history
Loser
Also the fact they chopped up dogs to shock the zoo visiters.
Stop whining
Yeah, that's some evil messed up stuff.
Nothing’s better than hearing that intro music! Papa Lazy delivers another great video!
I say this every time I hear about Skylar’s case, I will never forget her name and I hope that her parents find peace. Their grief was devastating and I know nothing anyone says or does will make it better. Rest in paradise Skylar!❤️
@Maria Sweety Hotgirl - Vlogs Oh wow! Was the parade there a daily thing like at Disney or was it a special occasion? I like learning more about cases.
I remember reading about that case where the boyfriend chopped up his girlfriend and cooked her. Apparently they lived above a voodoo shop in new Orleans and many people speculate it's related to the death.
Maybe, but I feel someone disturbed enougj to plan out and then enact this would probably have found a reason. If no local voodoo shop it would have been a song, or a movie, or the voices in his head.
It was a place called the Voodoo temple but no one truly believes that had anything to do with it. They were raging alcoholics that spent their nights getting high and drunk. He had PTSD from 2 tours in Iraq and she was bipolar. Everyone who knew them believed it was a matter of time before something tragic would happen. Addie would blow up out of nowhere and get violent, not just with Zack but also with her friends.
After Katrina, they had to get back to normal life and pay bills. That stressed them both out and Zack also had responsibilities to his 2 kids from his marriage that Addie resented. It all came to a head when she found out he was cheating on her. She blew up on him and he lost it.
@@anubrakahn2970 hey thanks for the info. Such a horrific story!
@Joseppi Diaz honestly, the way he cut it off is what made me look it up. Everyone has their issues and I guess he didn't feel comfortable talking about Addie and Zack's.
It might have been a time thing, too. To summarize 2 people's lives and their tragic ends (the way I did, for example) comes off cold. He may not have felt comfortable briefly explaining their backgrounds without detail but then realized it would add 20 minutes to the video or something so he just left it completely alone.
I agree that people put too much stock in Voodoo and other beliefs whenever they can. Most things usually just come down to people just being people.
@@whitecatblackcat7551 you're welcome. It is very sad. He never got treatment for his ptsd and she either took her meds sporadically or was never diagnosed (saw 2 different stories regarding her bipolar).
Either way, they were 2 people just trying to figure things out like the rest of us and it ended about as tragically as it possibly could.
I remember coming across the ' Human Zoo' a few years ago and was so disgusted. Still am quite frankly
Depends on the type, if the people in them CHOOSE to be and everything is consensual then no problem. Some people have quirks about their body or things they're able to do that they want to show off for money and others want to see out of curiosity. The people who were stolen and forced into it are a different story altogether, though, it's beyond monstrous.
Same as someone who’s half Filipino it made me tear up. It’s just so sad how our people and indigenous people were treated by those who weren’t even native to the land. I don’t know much about my Filipino side, but it always feels like a punch to a gut when learning about these things.
@@ZeeNastee There is a very big difference between modern freakshow acts run by self-described freaks as a celebration of their oddity and the deliberate exploitation of the impoverished, particularly colonial subjects whose payment was essentially the most meagre possible compensation for the systematic destruction of their way of life and their abuse at the hands of their oppressors. I wouldn't even compare the two despite their shared DNA.
@@ZeeNastee none of these people at that time period "chose" to be part of a human zoo they were captured from conquered or colonized lands.
@@lovelyllee2020 You should take time to learn about it, the more you know about your own history the better it will be for you and those who follow after you. No one's history outside of what's been mostly cleaned up will be taught in schools
I'm from New Orleans Louisiana. Lived here my entire life.... Katrina was just horrible & alot of people around that time started having mental breakdowns. I have never heard this story tho.. WOW .. thank you for all your amazing stories
I was born and raised in a place where igorots are native to. Seeing the picture of the kid bounded is honestly disturbing
As a native Igorot, this is pretty heartbreaking. These pictures could be a source of stereotypes that my people has to bear throughout the years. Both local filipinos and international foreigners. Whenever someone that is not from our tribe hear the name "Igorot"; the first thing they could think about is that we are backward savages who cuts people heads with tails hanging out our butts. In the case of foreigners, I've seen advertisements in this time period depicting my people as dog eaters. Which is pretty infuriating because this stereotype didn't just put our tribe in a bad name, it also spread to other Filipinos too.
Fun fact to those reading this : "Igorot" is a general term for the tribes found in the Cordillera mountains of the Philippines. There is not one type of Igorot tribe. Each tribe has their distinct language, costumes, and beliefs. The colored picture of four girls is from the Ibaloi tribe. That is the tribe that closely related to my family . The tatooed men might have been from the Kalinga or Bontok ( as these are fond of tattooing. Google "Apo wang-Od" to learn more). Bontok tribes are said to be tough but they are pretty respectful with women. In fact, Bontok culture is the only culture where the word "rape" doesn't exist. It just shows that our culture is far more colorful and complex than what history depicted us to be.
Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk. Peace out.
Theory: maybe the guy in the amusement park photo is simply eccentric or some kind of street performer, and he hasn't come forward because he either doesn't know that he's part of a mystery or he's afraid of being considered a person of interest in the incident.
I wouldn't be too surprised. Whether part of a parade or just excited to show off his costume, it could be entirely up to coincidence
This honestly wouldn't surprise me in the least. It's a very eye-catching and strange costume, very hard to forget, and anyone familiar with the operation of the park likely would have found such a figure just walking about a tad suspicious or at least odd. Some sort of performance artist seems as likely as anything else.
Other people have mentioned that there was an unrelated parade in the area that was full of masked people.
I’ve heard that it was from a nearby parade, and that the photo was not actually taken at Luna Park
He’s just a guy who was apart of a parade that the Goodson’s happened to be at, which was 3 miles away at the Circular Quay/Circular Harbor.
As a Filipino myself, that last one shocked me the most. Even now, the natives here are more prone to discrimination though not like this. Some of them still lives almost the same life as they had in the past. Some are begging in cities specially during christmas season.

Another good quality one. Thanks lazy.
Bruh if you make good content you'll no longer have to comment on popular channels to farm for views u know 😏
actually he has good content. His sense of humor is unique. The thing is he has the same thing like Seth Macfarlene: not everyone is ok with his opinions and humor. He expresses his thoughts about politics and religion freely even though it was a taboo to critisize religion that harsh. and some would of course not be ok with it. For me he is kind of like a guilty pleasure. He definitely has some videos to make one laugh, or think, or sometimes even trigger, and of course some that even im finding hard to be ok with. Still a good one though, you would know what I mean if you belonged to our culture and understood our language.

I find it scary how in the cave diving story, he suddenly got tangled as he tried to escape. It’s like the dead body’s spirit wasn’t letting go of him because it didn’t want to be left behind again.
dawg this wasn't even creepy until you mentioned it like this 💀
@@droomzy 😂
Projection.
Imagine all the equipment and ropes and tubes involved between the two of them.
In an inclosed space it’s not hard to imagine not to mention over 700 feet under water in a cave system. If I was a diver and lost that way I wouldn’t want anyone to risk getting me just to put me in the ground.
This isn’t even that implausible, ghost part aside real people who know that they’re about to die alone have tried to get others to stay with them even if it means sharing the same fate.
At 11:30 ,it actually says that he "turned the house into a morbid tourist attraction" People of course were attracted. How macabre. No respect at all. Btw Lazy ,Great upload. Thanks for distracting me on a VERY quiet birthday. Dec 17.
What a disgrace. Along with other total disrespect
The first story happened in my hometown. I know Skylar’s parents and I also know Rachel’s dad very well. It devastated our town. People were in shock.
God the frank ocean story May his brother Rest In Peace :( I hope Frank is okay and well
Rest in Peace Ryan. Sad to think that some inconsiderate fans are still hounding him over not releasing music. This man needs to heal.
21:28 That image is utterly chilling! Very disturbing because it looks like the entity looking out is grinning.
How did you see it? I had to find the real photo on internet then I saw that grudge like face. 😔
That one actually scared the shit out of my
I’m legit worried about my eyesight. I don’t see anything weird at all…
Not just you, I don't see anything either.
And weird house noises are why it's good to have a pet; you can blame anything strange on them, and save your sanity. ;)
@@williamsussman7343 Turn up the brightness and look at where the door is.
He be talking about creepy , mysterious stuff and I will go to sleep . His voice is soooooo soothingggg 💤😴
As a Filipino, I am appalled by the last story! My tears fell for that little girl and his Family. Justice was not served.
20:36 yikes I knew she was involved with the area, but I didn’t know she owned it and even worse did that with it
I'm just here yelling to myself 18 MONTHS?! Those people deserved so much more than 18 months🤦♀️
Thanks to the internet, Dr. Hunt's legacy is now cemented in shame for more than 18 months.
You always manage to dig up something I haven't heard of. I had heard about the Zach & Addie case but not that their rooms had been turned into a schlocky tourist attraction (ugh). I only recently learned about human zoos, and have never seen that photograph; yet another footnote in history that was shamefully hidden.
You have got the best narrating voice, and I love watching your great compilations alone at night! Great work and truly appreciated :)
Oh my goodness, those last photos of the children and others being displayed in a zoo is truly heartbreaking. Just another example of how completely deranged society has always been !
I think you're one of the only youtubers who does these kinds of videos without including the same handful of "creepy photos" I've seen over and over again. Thank you.
The thought of human zoo's is just horrific.
Thanks for a thought-provoking video.
But not a zoo holding animals prisoner?
@@ukmedicfrcs correct
@@ukmedicfrcs animal prisoners that probably would’ve been hunted down by human poachers, if not in the zoo or a sanctuary.
@@MS-dc2tt That's nonsense. Only 18% of ALL the animals in zoos world wide are endangered.
@@ukmedicfrcs did you really just compare those two 🤨
Here from the future, currently Rachel Shoaf will have her first parole hearing in May 2023, just a few weeks from now, and the Neese family has started petitions to deny Rachel's parole. It's so heartbreaking that any of this happened in the first place.
ngl the luna parks demon has nice abs 😳😳
please touch some grass
Dead set hey!! Checking out the demon cow hahaha
Gross.
Look. It is entirely possible to be a spooky ghost cosplay dude who may or may not be a murderous arsonist and also be jacked and tanned. Sometimes scary people are also coincidentally kinda hot. It's a sad fact of life that we all have to confront one day.
What he was suspected of doing was fucked up, but that's an undisputable FACT.
Papa's back, mood lifted
Papa provides.
@7:48 A literal nightmare. I was just watching a documentary with my Mother about a serial killer that kept a woman locked in a box under his bed. No way, I'd rather die than submit.
Zach and Addie's story chills my blood. Imagine being in aa "loving" relationship that ends like that D:
That Luna Park horned guy is scary-hot.
GodDAMN, that entire Lawson family looks possessed.
That Frank Ocean one gave me a serious sad; the last one gave me an even bigger one. 😯
Bruh 😂😂
The kid who likes getting grabbed by the NIckelodeon temple guards.
Ayo pause. You people in this comment section allowing pedophile sacrifice. Wtf are you doing????
For the Lawson Family murders, it's believed that the father had gotten his eldest daughter pregnant and thought it was best to get rid of his whole family than live with that shame.
When the picture of the "kitchen lurker" came up I stared and rewound it 4 times....idk what I'm supposed to see lol
Looks like a guy peeking out from behind the door. He must be running out of photos though since there was no creepy backstory or followup for that one or the other reddit photos
At first I didn’t see it
Then after reading this ugh I see it 😨
Same
Oh ok, I’m not the only person confused at what I’m suppose to see.
Yeah took me a second too, whatever it is it certainly isn't a ghost because GHOSTS DONT EXIST, I'm so glad my brain can distinguish between fantasy and reality.
