To kind of tie it in with your earlier discussion about decomposing bodies, the reason Lake Superior never gives up its dead is because it's so deep and cold. Bodies don't decompose and float to the surface like they normally would in most situations, so they just lie on the bottom of the lake for all eternity.
@@Xfactor444-x4n Decomposition (bacteria eating your body) causes gas. Gas fills your body and you float. Without that, your body will just stay sunken. So, yes, cold water slows the rate of decomposition, never producing enough gas, at one time, to float the body.
People "disappear " all the time in Blue Ridge/Smoky Mountains. They think they know where they are going but very easy to get lost. Bears live there. They would pick the bones.
You just don’t know how devastating a dust storm was. One of the worst dust storms had an estimated 3 million tons of top soil blown off. Speeds of 6o MPH or half that of a hurricane were recorded. Living in England I don’t think you can comprehend both the vast openness of the area nor the lack of geographical features making escape impossible as well as how much can be buried
They said the girl in Yosemite was 15, not 10. Lots of wild animals out there. I think mountain lions could be the culprits in a lot of the disappearances. In Alaska you have grizzlies, polar bears (way up north), wolves, all kinds of animals that are capable of catching and killing people. They’re stealthy too. Some weird cases for sure.
Also, if you go off-trail even a little bit you can easily get disoriented or injured. People like to leave the crowded, safer areas and hike off into the wilderness on wooded or mountainous trails. Such places are inherently dangerous, to varying degrees. Ignore the warning signs and you only have yourself to blame. Of course, children often don't even know what signs to look out for.
I'm from Bennington Vermont and once I drove into Glastonbury which is where the disappearances happened. I was under an overpass and stopped my car to have a look around. It was a standard shift and I had it in neutral. All of a sudden my car went backwards pretty fast. I was on a flat surface and there was no reason for it to go backwards. I took it as a warning and got the heck out of there. Also, just being in the area gave me an uneasy feeling. I had my daughter and her friend with me and we all got terrified.
You have no idea how many small towns like this existed back in the 20's where they were basically a few buildings and nothing more. People moved on from all of these small towns back then and weather does it's job.
The tri state tornadoes of 1929 were responsible for entirely wiping several towns completely off the land. The largest tornado left in some areas nearly a 2 mile wide wiped clean , to the soil land. What he’s referring to in number 10 is one of the towns removed . The tornadoes were proceeded by a fog looking cloud so there was no warnings. The tornado was the most deadly tornado in recorded human history but so many people have never heard of it. Relatives heading to the area to see if their loved ones are ok , but several town were gone, the roads would run into a destruction path and they’d go search with horses but unable to locate several rows or their people, I’m talking about ripping the home, barn, trees and animals into the air. Unreal.
That Dennis Martin disappearance which happened around here. There were also a group of green berets doing training at the time. They switched their training to help out looking for the boy. Still never found him
The last story was about a politician named Hale Boggs, not a plane named Hale Bop. His plane went down and was never found. Everyone gets around in small propeller planes in Alaska so lots of those disappearances are plane crashes. Probably a fair amount are people who don't want to be found. If you're wanted for something, Alaskan wilderness is a good place to disappear.
New subscriber here -- I'm an old woman from Kansas and I've never heard any of these stories before. The stories are horrible but you guys are fun. I've watched a couple of your videos before this one so I'll keep watching. I understand most of what you say but when you talk really fast, sometimes it's hard for me to figure out what you're saying! 😂 But I usually, I get most of it. You'd probably think I talk funny, too, with my Midwestern accent. Of course, I do pretty much pronounce ally "r's"! 😂 😁 😆! So, there's that, then. Love from Odie in Wichita, Kansas 🇺🇸 USA!
I just recently joined your site. I've been watching the office blokes for awhile (I love those guys) now I get to meet the beautiful family. I enjoy you guys. I loved the sharing of the family memories. Keep going we'll keep watching. Bethlehem pa
Alaska is a strange place to want to live, but they do give some good benefits from a government payoff each year to live there, and the salaries are pretty good from what i hear to work on the fishing/ crab boats, oil drillers..
For the dad it is true. Winners write the books not the losers. I mean no disrespect just trying to enlighten my fellow brothers and sisters. By the way sophie is absolutely perfect.
Aiden, kills me the way he looks 😳at his mother when she gives her opinion, it’s too funny!😂😂🤣🤣. Aiden, give Gaynor some respect for her thoughts. Gaynor correct there are more men to women in Alaska.
She's right, if you're dead and in the water, during decomp, the body fills with gas and floats but the limbs and head are usually are separated from the body after a while due to decomp and scavenging. It doesn't happen all the time but finding just a torso for someone who drowned is pretty common.
My Name's Brian and I live in Nebraska...Seriously, I do believe that some of these are just people leaving on their own for whatever reason. But I don't get how a young person like under 18 goes missing and there's no trace. Even if they were attacked by an animal, they usually don't eat the clothing and shoes. And even if they did, there would still be pieces left over during the attack. No one is just going to lay there and get eaten by a bear in a calm manner.
West of the Mississippi river, these are vast, mostly uninhabited wildernesses. Even with sufficient orienteering skills, it is very easy to get turned around and out of place. If you wander off, even a short distance, in harsh terrain, you can easily disappear. Animals will eat your remains and scatter the bones, and no one ever finds a trace.of you again.
There are more men in Alaska than women. There is a saying in Alaska about men in Alaska, "The odds are good, but the goods are odd." Meaning there are many men to choose from, but they are "different".
In Iowa alot of people just left and looked for work out west during the dustbowl. There are also some towns under man made lakes when they built dams. There is also the possibility of it just being a shantytown that got swept up during a storm.
I use to live in lake Tahoe, anyone who got stuck in the lake had an hour for people to find you the water is so cold people sink into the lake, almost everyone who went the lake haven't ever been fond. The guess of how deep the lake is there is a shelf in the lake, they can't get under it.
What a cool family! Thanks for your reactions. Also love yelling that you're in the wrong place on GeoGuesser, then being shown up by people who don't even live here. 😂
The dad is a skeptic. It’s cute. I know you’ve lived in the states, but I still don’t think you get it. When people go into the ‘wilderness’ it’s the WILDERNESS not a forest. The odds of someone walking where you disappeared are incredibly low
It took folk in multiple helicopters, ATVs, & on foot 3 days to find one old lady who had dementia & wandered away from her cabin - & husband - in the knolls north of Ash Fork, Arizona a few years back: her corpse was finally found not very far from the cabin. One of three hunters found himself lost in the same area & happened upon 2 locals (one at a time): the first local refused to help him; but, the second local figured out how to get him - & the others who were also lost - to safety (& all together again). Many folk die of exposure out in the wild (even before coming close to dying from thirst or hunger 😬) - while some die via an accident or encounter with a deadly critter (& critters tend to scatter bones). From a distance, trees, grasses, low spots, etc. can obscure the view of whole bodies let alone trace evidence of a human (sometimes one is rather close if not nearly on top of something dead - or alive even - before one notices). Sometimes bodies are found & sometimes they aren't. And then there's kidnapping where one or more people are trying to hide the whereabouts of their victim(s). Think Epstein's island & know that the same happens elsewhere as well (well-organized human trafficking rings do exist). There was a motorcyclist who was only rescued because someone thought that they heard a moan - & did! Many cars had passed by the cyclist & his motorcycle which laid just out of sight down a hill from a highway in California. One can 'go missing' in the blink of an eye. P.S.: There's also drug-related killings with various methods of body-disposal Also, I knew of a man who slipped into a lake while hiking & got tangled up & drowned: months before his body was found. Folk lost at Point A along the Merced River in Yosemite Nat'l Park, California might be found dead many miles away at Point B (Hetch-Hetchy area) - if found at all.
According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons database, more than 600,000 people go missing annually. Approximately 4,400 unidentified bodies are recovered each year.
Loving this channel more and more. Something special when all of you are together. Y'all need to stop teasing Gay just because she thinks limbs fall of after you drown. It could happen!!! 😛😛😛
Interesting, love the reactions. The Lost Dutchman mine that was mentioned in Arizonia. Was known to have local native Indians not others there would kill them. The mine has never been found, Maybe you folks look into that for a reaction
If i remember correctly the 1st one the entire town that disappeared, what had happened was that people were passing through this town, i cant remember if they'd been thr before, but the town was well kept and seemed to be relatively recently vacated. Like a ghost town, it was in the newspapers at the time, but was chalked up to the towns ppl moving out due to the lack of resources and lack of work. Maybe they left one by one or smethin happened that made it clear living thr wsnt going ta work out n everyone made their way out in hopes of finding somewhere more stable. But it was a real place. There were house and structures thr for a long while before weather n time took over and took the land back. Anyway there was documentation that the town did exist at one point, even if it was always empty of residents; as we don't actually know if anyone lived there to begin with, or if they did where they went. It wasn't uncommon for towns ta be abandoned back then, but it usually was ovr a period of time and there were ppl who remember the towns existence beforehand. What made this one peculiar was that no one seemed ta know who lived there if anyone did at one point and where they went r why. If it's the same town I'm thinking of that is, and not a completely different ghost town where the ppl mysteriously vanished lol. I just remember that it has happened idk if it's the same town as the one mentioned as #10.
This video has me wondering if you guys know that English actor Julian sands has been missing in the mountains of California for about a month and a half now.
Giant man-eating trout in that lake. The guy whose plane went missing in Alaska was Hale Boggs, a Louisiana Congressman. Nothing to do with the comet Hale-Bopp (if I spelled it right). I suspect more people have disappeared in Las Vegas than anywhere else and nearly all were big losers in the casinos.
You must hear the song by Gordon Lightfoot-Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald. It is heartbreaking...'Does any one know where the love of God goes When the waves turn the minutes to hours?' is my fav line...
The stories are little crazy in this video. I even question his numbers. Most likely a lot of these disappearances are due to terrain/wilderness and people not prepared or have no experience for the weather or wilderness. People go on hikes and don't know what they are doing and take stupid risks. They are not found because of the sheer vastness of the wilderness. They maybe fall into a ravine or die of heat exhaustion in the desert. Animals may eat the bodies or they decompose. The planes having accidents in the Sierras are due to the high altitude of the Sierras, the bad storms and down drafts when you are flying small plane. You have to be a really good pilot and have a lot of experience flying into those mountains.
The mention of Iowa in the very first place mentioned startled me a bit, I was born in Iowa and still live there to this day. Hell, I still live in the same town I was born in. Also, looked it up. Apparently the story of Urkhammer was entirely made up. Fabricated in 2015. So yeah, the old dude on the left was right. (new to this channel so I do not quite remember the names of these people yet).
Skinwalker Ranch is my obsession at the moment, there is a television show on History Channel. The US Government/Military spent twenty years investigating, possible buried UFO ?
The Midwest started having droughts. The dust storms were bad in Oklahoma. I'm not sure about Iowa. I know people started going to California during the Dust Bowl.
You guys. might want to do a follow up and include the disappearance of Flight 19 in 1945 in the first Triangle the Bermuda Triangle. The five planes, Torpedo Avengers, left on a training flight in December of thyst year from Florida on a practice bombing exercise. Radio contact was lost and the planes all vanished. Every several years someone claims to have goyund one of them, but it always proves to be another aircraft. Not exactly in the US, but since this incident is so famous, give it some thought . A large search plane sent out searching for them disappeayted as well.
Theres an area in Alaska called “The Alaska Triangle”. In the last 30 years 16,000+ ppl have gone missing. Twice as many ppl that have gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle. Alaska is bigger than Texas w like 95% of Alaska being unseen by most ppl. Its the most isolated areas in North America.
You should check out a documentary series called Missing 411. It focuses on all the mysterious missing people cases in the US national parks. Some of the cases in this video are in the documentaries.
The Last of Us is/was a award winning video game that was so popular and had such a good story that it was made into a show. PLAY THE GAME even if you are not a gamer, you won't regret it!
Well now there's a lot of speculation that Sasquatch takes people when it has a chance and to be fair there's lots of accounts of them in the UK as well. The way some of these hikers are found ten or fifteen miles away from their gear up thousands of feet in incline it just doesn't make sense
If you guys were interested in this video you should watch videos about hauntings in New Orleans Louisiana. You could probably get about 5 or 6 excellent videos. It's the most haunted city in the United States so the videos are endless. My favorite city ever.
This is an old 9/11 story that you may not have seen it is called: " Operation Yellow Ribbon." The day the United States closed the airspace over America.
@dacrosber Well, most of the land is unexplored/charted so getting injured, if by yourself is easily a death penalty. Fall, break a leg and cannot get back to camp or whatever. Freeze that night. It is very rugged. You just should never go alone away from town or home.
Daz was completely right about Urkhammer. The general consensus is it never existed, someone just made up a story somewhere around 2015 and it somehow caught on.
People go missing a lot here in Alaska. Usually because hey pissed someone off. Or suicide, our suicide rates are off the charts. Better to be respectful to people and yourself and not have to worry about someone capitalizing on our large amount of body hiding space.
I'm from New Hampshire and I notable do not fuck with Bennington Vermont. I have family from around there but my god it is the creepiest little backwoods town
I live in Anchorage Alaska. When the Alaska Pipeline was being built yes you saw MANY MEN n made alot of money. People would venture to areas that you should never go the Temps can drop 60-80 F Many go up to Prudhoe Bay n meet up withe poor bears who are the most vicious of all bears n don't leave a trace. Mt McKinley ( now called Mt Denali Eskimos renamed to what it was called many years ago) Many expeditions from AL Around the world want to climb but fall into deep crevices never to be seen again, The storns that roll in fast drop in temp n hypothermia n have to stop n often cut their ropes to let the rest of team go on. In Spring they make 100's of rescues of frozen bodies Alot of haunted houses around, A 20 foot wide water r hole in Maui that people try to crossj
I missed the last part, People try to cross n half way is sucked down. Hawaii tried to measure the depth but never succeeded. A house stands 100 yards from it. Sorry I went to long
Lots of black bear in the Smokie Mountains , i also was shot at about 30 rounds while we were hiking on TVA ( Tennessee Valley Authority) property back in 1989 , we didn't know that we had gotten too close to someone's illegal marijuana grow , we were able to smell it when we were high tailing it out of there. They could have shot both myself and Daryl , i could hear the bullets buzzing over our heads .

Northern California, in the Emerald Triangle, lots of bodies on those hills. And the Desert outside Vegas
You just don’t know how devastating a dust storm was. One of the worst dust storms had an estimated 3 million tons of top soil blown off. Speeds of 6o MPH or half that of a hurricane were recorded. Living in England I don’t think you can comprehend both the vast openness of the area nor the lack of geographical features making escape impossible as well as how much can be buried

erkhammer is kinda like fight club, we just dont talk about it.....the smoky mountains are also the oldest mountain range in the world
Clothing can help them figure out how long/when they've been there. Also, decomposition can cause limbs to detach along with scavengers (animals).
You have no idea how many small towns like this existed back in the 20's where they were basically a few buildings and nothing more.
People moved on from all of these small towns back then and weather does it's job.
Had to laugh at Sophie giggle at Daz saying he "had to peg [Aidan]" as part of their family trip in the Great Smokey Mts.
I bet Daz makes her giggle in bed as well.

That Dennis Martin disappearance which happened around here. There were also a group of green berets doing training at the time. They switched their training to help out looking for the boy. Still never found him
This was featured in Missing 411 I believe. There were reports of a hairy feral man carrying a child over his shoulders.
@@haileystevens9249 yup 100% correct but nobody took them seriously when they probably should have

Theres no mystery there. Its been solved. Ppl didnt go missing they packed up and left.

The mention of Iowa in the very first place mentioned startled me a bit, I was born in Iowa and still live there to this day. Hell, I still live in the same town I was born in. Also, looked it up. Apparently the story of Urkhammer was entirely made up. Fabricated in 2015. So yeah, the old dude on the left was right. (new to this channel so I do not quite remember the names of these people yet).
From Left to Right Daz, Gaynor, Aiden and Sophie
Old dude 😂😂😂😂😂
@@MatthewLikesToRead 😂😂😂
Daz, what watch are you wearing? And do you have a collection
You gotta remember that hearsay is the worse evidence in a court of law. lol
Skinwalker Ranch is my obsession at the moment, there is a television show on History Channel. The US Government/Military spent twenty years investigating, possible buried UFO ?
You guys should look at Bermuda triangle
I was just talking to my hubby about there. Wondered why it's not heard about anymore. He actually had a reason, but I've forgotten what it was.
The Bermuda Triangle is nothing compared to the Alaska triangle. 16,000 missing in the Alaska trianhgle over 30 years.
Daz big Guy ,now I know why you drink lol 😂
The Midwest started having droughts. The dust storms were bad in Oklahoma. I'm not sure about Iowa. I know people started going to California during the Dust Bowl.
You guys. might want to do a follow up and include the disappearance of Flight 19 in 1945 in the first Triangle the Bermuda Triangle. The five planes, Torpedo Avengers, left on a training flight in December of thyst year from Florida on a practice bombing exercise. Radio contact was lost and the planes all vanished. Every several years someone claims to have goyund one of them, but it always proves to be another aircraft. Not exactly in the US, but since this incident is so famous, give it some thought . A large search plane sent out searching for them disappeayted as well.
Someone recently died in the Superstition Mountains. They were trying to take a selfie near a cliff edge and lost their balance.
I live on the outskirts of the Bennington triangle and have been researching it since I moved here
Theres an area in Alaska called “The Alaska Triangle”. In the last 30 years 16,000+ ppl have gone missing. Twice as many ppl that have gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle. Alaska is bigger than Texas w like 95% of Alaska being unseen by most ppl. Its the most isolated areas in North America.
You should check out a documentary series called Missing 411. It focuses on all the mysterious missing people cases in the US national parks. Some of the cases in this video are in the documentaries.
Their was a serial killer that lived in Anchorage AK but, he traveled all over the US from WA to VT and there are many victims of his.
You have a PS5, Daz! Play The Last of Us! 😂 (my friends helped make it). Sophie has good taste! 😊
You should checkout the story behind the Roanoke legend…
Roanoke has been solved. Its a myth.
You should look into missing 401 and the CanAm project
The Last of Us is/was a award winning video game that was so popular and had such a good story that it was made into a show. PLAY THE GAME even if you are not a gamer, you won't regret it!
10. How does concrete foundations disappear? But they probably all left during the depression and it became a fairy tale.
Have you reacted to Mr. Ballen? He tells strange dark and twisted stories
Well now there's a lot of speculation that Sasquatch takes people when it has a chance and to be fair there's lots of accounts of them in the UK as well. The way some of these hikers are found ten or fifteen miles away from their gear up thousands of feet in incline it just doesn't make sense
If you guys were interested in this video you should watch videos about hauntings in New Orleans Louisiana. You could probably get about 5 or 6 excellent videos. It's the most haunted city in the United States so the videos are endless. My favorite city ever.
Alaska & Sasquatch/Sabe too
This is an old 9/11 story that you may not have seen it is called: " Operation Yellow Ribbon." The day the United States closed the airspace over America.
Check out Missing 411 videos by David Paulides. or Mrballen.
Cheers!
The grizzly bears are WELL fed in Alaska. Kids walk to school carrying .308 hunting rifles to protect themselves from bears.
@dacrosber I don't doubt it for a second
@dacrosber Well, most of the land is unexplored/charted so getting injured, if by yourself is easily a death penalty. Fall, break a leg and cannot get back to camp or whatever. Freeze that night. It is very rugged. You just should never go alone away from town or home.
@dacrosber Yes, Alaska gets a large influx of sometimes sketchy people from the lower 48. Most of which are probably not ready for the environment.
Probably an URBAN LEGEND there are alot of them in the USA
I bet you guys would enjoy some of the Missing 411 stories!
He's saying they don't know WHERE in Iowa it was located.
Hale Bopp comet was tied to the Heaven's Gate cult mass suicide
After a little time a body will float to the top
Daz was completely right about Urkhammer. The general consensus is it never existed, someone just made up a story somewhere around 2015 and it somehow caught on.
World according to Briggs is awesome.
u guys should react to mr ballen. hes a great story teller. if u like this type of stuff u will like his stories.
People go missing a lot here in Alaska. Usually because hey pissed someone off. Or suicide, our suicide rates are off the charts. Better to be respectful to people and yourself and not have to worry about someone capitalizing on our large amount of body hiding space.
I'm from New Hampshire and I notable do not fuck with Bennington Vermont. I have family from around there but my god it is the creepiest little backwoods town
Why is it alwasy a triangle?
I live in Anchorage Alaska. When the Alaska Pipeline was being built yes you saw MANY MEN n made alot of money. People would venture to areas that you should never go the Temps can drop 60-80 F Many go up to Prudhoe Bay n meet up withe poor bears who are the most vicious of all bears n don't leave a trace. Mt McKinley ( now called Mt Denali Eskimos renamed to what it was called many years ago) Many expeditions from AL
Around the world want to climb but fall into deep crevices never to be seen again, The storns that roll in fast drop in temp n hypothermia n have to stop n often cut their ropes to let the rest of team go on. In Spring they make 100's of rescues of frozen bodies Alot of haunted houses around, A 20 foot wide water r hole in Maui that people try to crossj
I missed the last part, People try to cross n half way is sucked down. Hawaii tried to measure the depth but never succeeded. A house stands 100 yards from it. Sorry I went to long
You never lose your wife in Alaska. You just lose your turn.
Lots of black bear in the Smokie Mountains , i also was shot at about 30 rounds while we were hiking on TVA ( Tennessee Valley Authority) property back in 1989 , we didn't know that we had gotten too close to someone's illegal marijuana grow , we were able to smell it when we were high tailing it out of there. They could have shot both myself and Daryl , i could hear the bullets buzzing over our heads .
Ok now you have to react to a video about ants being taken over by the cordyceps fungus
Last of us is an amazing show I’m with you Sophie
