#postmortem if you guys absolutely had to be murdered, how would you want to be killed and why? i love your content and i'm looking forward to the next season!! :))) #boogara
I was waiting and waiting for them to say it. I really wish Shane pointed that out only for Ryan to stare at him, but at least Christina T. noticed so that's better than nothing.
If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend watching the movie "Saturday Morning Mystery." The original title was "Saturday Morning Massacre." It is a live action Scooby Doo horror film, the names of the characters are changed for copyright purposes but it is clearly a Scooby Doo story.
People were scared of 'sheet ghosts' because back then they couldn't afford coffins so people were buried in white shrouds and that is what the ghost is meant to be - someone risen from the grave.
I mean, it makes sense, sort of. Holy water is supposed to deal with ghosts, and lead has no such properties. My best guess, from my limited understanding of ghosts, is to punch them. They're only spirits, and you've got a spirit in you, too- but their spirit is flimsy, floating on the breeze with nothing to support it, like a thin, sheer cloth blowing in the wind, while you have a body supporting yours, like a sturdy wooden kite. You could probably punch a hole straight through them if you tried.
Imagine your prank ends up killing a pregnant woman and her unborn child, the murder of an innocent man, 200+ years of judicial debate, and a centuries old ghost story that still persists today.
Think about how did they know that the pregnant woman was hugged by a ghost when she was in a coma since they found her? I think it's a made out story only.
as a law student, i can clarify that murder and manslaughter are different. murder would generally be premeditated and intentional, manslaughter is when you clearly take a life but without the intention behind it, making it a slightly lesser charge. both bad, but as he wasn't intending to kill a man but a ghost, it was manslaughter, not murder
@@Notoastleft I don't see how this could be considered as anything else but murder the guy went to shot someone he wasn't startled and it wasn't self-defense he went out to kill the person pretending to be a ghost
@@Notoastleft I mean if you yell out at a person "What are you? I'm going to shoot you" twice and shoot them after getting no response, that seems pretty premeditated to me. Manslaughter would be if the man was caught up in a shooting between other parties for instance, as there is no intention there. This case was, by definition, murder.
@@Notoastleft Quite right! I mentioned in my comment that, after talking to a Q.C. friend of my fathers, he pointed out the importance that this case of 1804 had on U.K. law. It set a legal precedent in the U.K., regarding self-defence, ie; whether someone could be held liable for their actions, even if they were the consequence of a mistaken belief! In our family we have always seemed to have one foot in the area of law the other (including my own) in medicine, or a mix of the two. I must admit, the mirth that Shane & Ryan always seem to gain from even recent murders, has always prevented me from subbing, wishing that they could see the horrors of sudden death, especially afflicted by others, in the flesh, so to speak. Also a wish, regardless that murder never comes knocking at their own doors. I wish you all the best in your legal studies.
Imagine you're the guy who got shot for maybe being a ghost. I would intentionally come back as a ghost! I'd be so mad like "oh yeah? I'll show you a ghost!!"
@@Quackervoltz because that's where he was taken right after he was shot. He died in there But you are right like, no fuckin wonder he's supposedly haunting the pub and isn't very happy
fun fact: shane is right about boo ghosts being scary a couple hundred years ago. the image of a ghost in a sheet originates from the tradition of burying people wrapped in a shroud, and boo ghosts were commonly viewed as terrifying back then
For post-mortem: fun fact! Back in the day many people would have been buried wrapped in a white burial shroud made of cotton, linen, or muslin. They are still used across the globe today as they are used in many burial traditions but are even growing in popularity for westerners here in Australia due to green burials. Maybe this is where the imagery of a boo ghost covered in a white sheet comes from? #postmortem
Buzzfeed set designers: let’s put two cozy lounge chairs with warm blankets in the background there....Then we’ll put 2 of the tiniest most uncomfortable wooden crates the world has ever seen for them to sit on directly beside those lounge chairs.
Those are set boxes it was the Directors choice having them in the chair 6feet apart probably look more unnatural then just using set boxes that you normally put a sheet on to key or color match something also filling the the 6foot gap with a backdrop set that makes a triangle is more pleasing and gives 3 point for your eyes to fix to the boring stuff in the middle or the two humans talking also straight lines are used more when shooting guys one last thing is there using forced perspective if you look at the back chairs to make Ryan look a bit taller then Shane so it would distract the viewer
Like he’s about to go for a run after taking the kids to school but one of the teachers called saying how the youngest pooped his pants and needs a fresh pair of undies and pants. And Shane had just had it up to here.
The white shroud likely refers to the funeral shroud, a thin cloth they wrapped bodies in or laid on top of a body. Back in the old days, suicide deaths were thought to create restless spirits, and suicide victims were buried at crossroads. So the lore of this ghost haunting travellers checks out! #postmortem
I believe I read that they not only buried suicides at crossroads, but also drove a stake through the body to nail to the ground and left part of the stake visible above ground for some time.
This episode is such a banger. Every one of their little side bits slayed me. Ryan reenacting the clown mime and Shane perfectly capturing a ghost walking backwards, while sitting down no less! -- the boys got physical comedy chops for days.
Especially when he said “even if a police officer killed someone he was entitled to apprehend, that was also still murder.” Like its weird and kind of disheartening to think that an English judge in 1804 was more just than the US justice system today
I love how the judge seemed so ahead of his time. He was trying to explain logic and philosophy to a group of jurors who had to deliberate for an hour on if a man who shot a person with the excuse of "but i thought it was a ghost' was guilty or not.
It's the original setting out with intent to shoot an unarmed man for being a nuisance, that should have made it murder, which the whole group of vigilantes had plans to do. The villagers on the jury approved of their plans to wound the culprit as they thought bullet injury was a fair punishment. They kept going back to the last part when he actually fired his gun thinking it wasn't human because they didn't want to address the real issue of the group's vigilanteism. I'm British and we still have a lot of people who support violent vigilanteism when the justice system is perceived as inadequate.
I mean... There is a thing called mens rea in law, which is considered to be even more important than actus reus. Actus reus is the act of committing the crime, while mens rea is the intention to commit the crime. The shooter never actually had the intention to shoot a human. All the while his intention had been to shoot a spectre. So can it really even be called murder? I feel that manslaughter would have been more appropriate after all.
@Theda Bara What do you mean the JUDGE was a "tad bloodthirsty?" Someone got murdered for wearing a white uniform and you're saying its hard to exonerate the culprit because he felt sorry about it. Honestly I'm mad that the man had only a year of hard labor.
The "disagree, shoot em" becomes more worrisome when you realize shane does not believe in ghosts, so he is 199% advocating for shooting tricksters you think are ghosts
@@Panda72021 I feel like Dean would gripe about that one because, A) planes and B) they’ve never had good luck with the British. But this would still be an adorable episode.
My theory is that the ghost of Thomas Millwood time traveled to the past, scared random people, and eventually caused his own death. I think it's a time loop.
Non-Christian person here: isn't that a thing, canonically, though?? What's the Holy Ghost, if not Jesus? Is that one of those abstract metaphors that aren't meant to be explained (or so Christians I've talked to previously have said about things that don't make sense)?
@@A_T216technically I believe the Holy Ghost is not Jesus because the three (god Jesus and the HG) make up the holy trinity so they’re different things. I don’t think theologically that the “Holy Ghost” is actually the ghost of Jesus Christ, right?
Ryan: *"We are friends.. we are.. friends, right?.."* Shane: *"Yeah. We are."* Meanwhile. Steven: *"Do you feel like we are now closer like friends?"* Andrew: *"I.. don't think so."*
I've become a big fan, but I only discovered their show last season. That one and this one were both really short. Is that how it always has been? :( I wish they were longer.
I would actually LOVE to see you guys do a story on the mass clown sighting a few years ago, I don’t even remember how that all started, but I would love to see an in-depth story on that modern day mass hysteria!!!
This case is just like a Scooby-Doo episode, but instead of unmasking the fake ghost, they just shoot some random guy who had a passing resemblance to him.
I wouldn't call it a passing resemblence, it's white clothes vs. white burial shroud, come on, that's idiotic to think they're the same person. Dude was just wearing his work clothes.
“Even if a police officer killed someone he was entitled to apprehend, that was also still murder.” Can anyone explain why a British judge in 1804 makes more sense then the entire US justice system today?
The man who shot the “ghost” wasn’t the law. Police have a right to protect themselves and others from someone dangerous. Sometimes this goes wrong and they hit someone innocent. That’s touchy because it could’ve been a passive kill (meaning unintentional) or the officer knew what they wanted to do.
Even if a police officer killed someone he was entiled to apperd, that was also still murder. Can anyone explain why a British judge in 1804 make more sense than enter us justice system today
I like to think he burst in yelling "I killed the ghost" and the actual man pretending to be the ghost was just sitting there going "well good on ya-wait a minute, oh no"
She was found by some people and they woke her up and I imagine she explained what happened to her before she went to sleep and died. It'd be pretty weird if she *didn't* explain what happened and just stayed silent for the whole time she was awake.
"I shot the ghost!" "No, you created another ghost- now we have yet another one to deal with. You're not helping at all!" Don't shoot ghosts. The more you know
my dad recently got diagnosed with cancer and i found my way across your series' a few days ago and have been binging them ever since. no rhyme or reason; i just love the energy as it reminds me of when me and my cousins used to ghost hunt at my grandma's house when we were kids... and i used to watch countless episodes of Ghost Adventures with my mom when i was younger... you guys make me feel at home and give me a familiar (but odd) comfort
@@pedror1439 Yeah... that’s the problem with the postmortem hashtag. I did that once and it was rough. It helps them sort the comments but don’t click on the hashtag! You end up with some actual postmortem content.
What if there was an actual ghost that heard about it and stopped. The ghost going "spooking people is fun, but now they start killing each other, I'm out"
A question for Ryan for Post Mortem: Ryan, if you were to have kids, and one of them were to claim to have seen/heard a ghost, how would you react? Like, would you whip out the spirit box right away, or would you wait to see if they brought it up again? #postmortem Edit: Shane, how would you react in a similar situation, particularly if the child appeared to be genuinely distressed?
Well, there were, and still are, walkways through many of London’s cemeteries. They’re a short cut. Back then, people were out working and drinking….using the cemetery short cuts. I used to walk through one every day to get to school in Walthamstow, London.
@@AsdfAsdf-mi6ks She might have been a domestic or service worker. Or on her way home after getting something to eat after a shift. People and life were not that much different then, when you think about it. Also there were not a lot of other options for transporting oneself, other than walking. There were hansom cabs for hire but these were not something working class people were usually paying for when they could just walk.
Shane: "I think we as human beings should not allow ourselves to end someone else's life". *A woman shoots a criminal after she was threatened by the axeman* Shane: Good for her!
Self defense is murder too but it’s excusable because your own life was in danger. Same for police who have authority to use lethal force when their lives are in danger. It’s always murder but whether they get charged or not depends on if they were justified in using lethal force.
As always, americans think the upper class English accent is how most people from the UK talk and people who aren't from London are automatically heavy Australian. 😂 Shane's is really good but Ryans...
@@Npecal All Americans don’t think that lol. Some people just aren’t good at accents and Ryan is one of them, his definitely came off more old Asian man
@@TwinsBigLikeTia I just think it's funny that most American youtubers I watch when they think of people from UK or London they immediately go to *"Chocks away! Ello Govna!"* 😂 Or again heavy Australian...
to this day i still don't know how an "american" accent sounds to other people. like do british people sit here and mimick american accents like we do for them? im so confused lmao 😂
@@myomerss Yeah for sure, I’m American too but I’ve definitely seen it. Usually they mimic the “valley girl”, nasally Kardashian voices like “oh my gawd staaaahhhhp” 🙄 honestly makes me hate being an American, sounds annoying af 😂
@Karolien van der Louw yeah to me it was more new york/aussie than british at all lmao edit: seems as if there's a tad of irish in there too. quite honestly impressive how ambiguous this accent is.

My theory is that the ghost of Thomas Millwood time traveled to the past, scared random people, and eventually caused his own death. I think it's a time loop.
I like the way you think!
Shane looks like he's going for victorian professor and hipster librarian lovechild today.
But he's pulling it off!
So the best possible combination ?
Just needs a bubble pipe and a pocket watch 😆
Looks like someone needs to review what Victorian era clothing for men actually was.

I didn't think about this until now, but maybe the ghost was the watchman! Was there anyone watching the watchman?

"Was Jesus a ghost?" Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave
Non-Christian person here: isn't that a thing, canonically, though?? What's the Holy Ghost, if not Jesus? Is that one of those abstract metaphors that aren't meant to be explained (or so Christians I've talked to previously have said about things that don't make sense)?
Dude the Holy Ghost tho
@Shadow Killer1711 that'd be funny
@@A_T216technically I believe the Holy Ghost is not Jesus because the three (god Jesus and the HG) make up the holy trinity so they’re different things. I don’t think theologically that the “Holy Ghost” is actually the ghost of Jesus Christ, right?
@@maddieb.4282the Holy Ghost is not the father or the son but is god and that’s how it is for the other two
Ryan: *"We are friends.. we are.. friends, right?.."*

Oddly specific! I love it lol
I would actually LOVE to see you guys do a story on the mass clown sighting a few years ago, I don’t even remember how that all started, but I would love to see an in-depth story on that modern day mass hysteria!!!
omg me too!! i was 15 when that all started (20 now) and i would *love* to know the origin!!
izzzyzzz has a great video on that
That's was too funny.. one clown attacks somebody and suddenly everybody want to go attack clowns.. lol
No bc my brother saw a clown on Halloween in the backyard of our old house a few years back
i was 13 at the time now im 20
This case is just like a Scooby-Doo episode, but instead of unmasking the fake ghost, they just shoot some random guy who had a passing resemblance to him.
Yayyy now I know of at least 3 people who noticed that! (including me) (I still wish Shane had interrupted Ryan to point it out though)
They're almost like the real police!
This is like the John Mulaney bit about shooting Hitler.
I wouldn't call it a passing resemblence, it's white clothes vs. white burial shroud, come on, that's idiotic to think they're the same person. Dude was just wearing his work clothes.
@@szalonajulka True, true.
“Have I done a whoopsie?” While sounding exactly like Mike Myers absolutely killed me
“Even if a police officer killed someone he was entitled to apprehend, that was also still murder.” Can anyone explain why a British judge in 1804 makes more sense then the entire US justice system today?
The man who shot the “ghost” wasn’t the law. Police have a right to protect themselves and others from someone dangerous. Sometimes this goes wrong and they hit someone innocent. That’s touchy because it could’ve been a passive kill (meaning unintentional) or the officer knew what they wanted to do.
@@Baskin20916 that would be manslaughter. Which isn’t as bad as murder 1 or 2. A life was still ended.
if those republicans could read they’d be very upset
Even if a police officer killed someone he was entiled to apperd, that was also still murder. Can anyone explain why a British judge in 1804 make more sense than enter us justice system today
because every scenario is different. if their lives are being threatened, they’re allowed to defend themselves.
Shane’s old fashioned British accent is amazing but Ryan just sounds Australian
Yup
Yes😂😂
That's cause Shane is actually immortal and used to live there
They sound like a Monty Python bit, when they do British accents
@@WickedElfie
I mean the actors are British so that probably helps a little.
dude went from hunting a ghost to making one
I like to think he burst in yelling "I killed the ghost" and the actual man pretending to be the ghost was just sitting there going "well good on ya-wait a minute, oh no"
Lmao

How did the pregnant woman's story get out if she died though?
The baby told it of course
It sounds like she had to be awake for a bit after the people found her if she actually went to bed in a literal sense
She was found by some people and they woke her up and I imagine she explained what happened to her before she went to sleep and died.
It'd be pretty weird if she *didn't* explain what happened and just stayed silent for the whole time she was awake.
...hey yeah-
Probably the other townfolk
Literally no one:
The townspeople:
Let's walk around the cemetery!
Oh yes, time for the daily WALK THROUGH THE CEMETERY! Such fun! In the middle of the night it always is! Yes siree, the most fun I’ve had ever!
This is late but during this time period, cemeteries were kind of a common public space. It depended on the area mostly
I walk around graveyards all the time. Lots of birds and very calm
I walk through the cemetery where I live. It's quiet. Also there are cute crows that always want my attention.
This whole case starts out like the most basic episode of Scooby Doo.
For postmortem: idk if you've answered this, but why r u guys sitting on appleboxes when you literally have nice chairs behind you
That’s where the ghosts are sitting, duh.

Shane’s English accent is passable ONLY in comparison to whatever the hell Ryan is doing 😂. #postmortum
yeah
At least Shane's was recognisably meant to be British. I can't decide whether Ryan's was more Irish or Australian. #postmortum
I had a geico commercial right after he was speaking in the accent - the gecko sounded exactly the same. Lol
what the hell, i clicked on the hashtag on the comment and morbid videos came up
@@pedror1439 Yeah... that’s the problem with the postmortem hashtag. I did that once and it was rough. It helps them sort the comments but don’t click on the hashtag! You end up with some actual postmortem content.

Shane's Olde English accent is actually quite good.
Ikr? I noticed too
It's not even 'Olde' English; I actually live in the Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and people still talk like that here!
Especially considering that in an older episode he didn't know Gaol = Jail.
Also the accent is good but not actually old English.

Do you imagine the guy actually pretending to be a ghost heard about someone getting shot and then decided to quit
Would he not have stopped after the women died
What if there was an actual ghost that heard about it and stopped. The ghost going "spooking people is fun, but now they start killing each other, I'm out"
what if the guy who got shot WAS the guy actually pretending to be a ghost?
I mean, it's still murder but the goal was reached
This is hilarious

I was just thinking the same thing tbh. “You’re a scary ghost? That’s nice. Now be quiet, I’m busy, I’ve got a family to feed”
I laughed SO HARD at ryan’s “drunk british bloke telling a story” bit
Honestly, I feel like we need more of this judge in today’s society. He’s firm on “Murder is still murder” even if it’s a policeman shooting a suspect
A question for Ryan for Post Mortem: Ryan, if you were to have kids, and one of them were to claim to have seen/heard a ghost, how would you react? Like, would you whip out the spirit box right away, or would you wait to see if they brought it up again? #postmortem
Edit: Shane, how would you react in a similar situation, particularly if the child appeared to be genuinely distressed?

Ok, but why's everyone walking around a churchyard late at night?
what else was there to do in the olden days
I mean, if it’s late at night- sleep 🤣
Well, there were, and still are, walkways through many of London’s cemeteries. They’re a short cut. Back then, people were out working and drinking….using the cemetery short cuts. I used to walk through one every day to get to school in Walthamstow, London.
@@pommiebears okay but what does a pregnant lady have any business out at 10 pm???
@@AsdfAsdf-mi6ks She might have been a domestic or service worker. Or on her way home after getting something to eat after a shift.
People and life were not that much different then, when you think about it.
Also there were not a lot of other options for transporting oneself, other than walking. There were hansom cabs for hire but these were not something working class people were usually paying for when they could just walk.
Closing thought: Why do they sit on the uncomfortable looking wooden blocks instead of the chairs behind them 😂
I´ve been thinking the same thing all season
Ask them in #postmortem!
Was wondering that too
Cuz the ghosts are already sitting in the chairs.
probably for a more aesthetic shot
Ryan: "I think it's like a mist"
Townsfolk: "This is a murderer in a white sheet"
Shane gushing over the old wagon and what it may have looked like really adds to the whole theory of him being immortal
In an alternate universe he might be... 🤷♀️ if you believe in the multiple words theory I believe it is
Shane: "I think we as human beings should not allow ourselves to end someone else's life".
*A woman shoots a criminal after she was threatened by the axeman*

“Even if a police officer killed someone he was entitled to apprehend, that was also murder.” Interesting lol

Yeah, seems like the justice system conveniently forgot about that detail.
“I said, ‘Yup, what a concept!’”
Murica does things differently
@@luna-pr3go It is justified when there is present or possible danger to civilians or officers of the law.
"Even if a police officer killed someone he was entitled to apprehend, that was also still murder" Oh if only it was like that today
yeah i’m not even gonna lie i got gassed when the judge said that
I know :(
Self defense is murder too but it’s excusable because your own life was in danger. Same for police who have authority to use lethal force when their lives are in danger. It’s always murder but whether they get charged or not depends on if they were justified in using lethal force.
