[00:00:44] I'm ready.

[00:00:45] I'm...

[00:00:46] You are who?

[00:00:47] I'm Joanna.

[00:00:48] And I'm Carmen.

[00:00:49] You're such a liar.

[00:00:50] I like your laugh.

[00:00:51] I'm...

[00:00:52] We're so stupid.

[00:01:00] So this is Live Laugh Murder.

[00:01:01] Yes it is.

[00:01:02] Welcome.

[00:01:03] Welcome to Live Laugh Murder where we tell stories that may or may not be true.

[00:01:21] We are true crime...

[00:01:22] Sometimes.

[00:01:23] Sometimes.

[00:01:24] Ooh, you filled that in.

[00:01:25] The story you're going to listen to today may be the facts of a true crime

[00:01:28] case told in a narrative fiction style or it might be the plot of a horror story.

[00:01:34] Let's see if you and my co-host Joanna can figure it out before the end of our show.

[00:01:40] And 50-50, honestly I think...

[00:01:42] And we need a tally, honestly like...

[00:01:43] We've been saying that.

[00:01:44] I know, we say that in episode 21 now?

[00:01:47] 23.

[00:01:48] Oh my gosh.

[00:01:49] It's okay.

[00:01:50] Okay so here's what I'm gonna do.

[00:01:51] What?

[00:01:52] Actually interns, if you're listening, your assignment is to go and listen to every

[00:01:56] episode.

[00:01:58] Just so you can go to the last five minutes, ten minutes and then keep a tally on how I'm

[00:02:02] correct.

[00:02:03] And the first one, Amy or Becky, whoever wins.

[00:02:05] Wow, you're putting it out there.

[00:02:07] Yeah.

[00:02:08] Whoever gets me the results the fastest I will give you a treat.

[00:02:12] Surprise.

[00:02:13] You're not a dog.

[00:02:14] Surprise.

[00:02:15] What kind of surprise?

[00:02:16] I have not decided but it will be a good one.

[00:02:17] Do I get a surprise?

[00:02:18] No.

[00:02:19] Okay, don't...

[00:02:20] Why would you click the pen in the microphone?

[00:02:22] So people know that I'm ready.

[00:02:23] I think we should keep going.

[00:02:24] Okay.

[00:02:25] I'm really off.

[00:02:27] Will you be able to know if our story is real or fake?

[00:02:31] I'll find out.

[00:02:32] That's the point.

[00:02:33] That is the point.

[00:02:34] Before our story though, I want to give a shout out to one of our patrons.

[00:02:38] Today's episode is dedicated to Erica who has been a patron since the beginning of

[00:02:42] October.

[00:02:43] Yay.

[00:02:44] She is a part of our Live Laugh Massacre tier and we just wanted to take a moment

[00:02:48] to thank you for supporting our teeny little show that we love so much.

[00:02:52] Yes we do.

[00:02:53] Thank you.

[00:02:54] Thank you Erica.

[00:02:55] We love you.

[00:02:56] Before our story, we like to talk shit about our state of Florida because we live here and

[00:03:02] we're allowed to do that.

[00:03:03] Yeah because it is a show.

[00:03:05] Do you have a Florida Man episode?

[00:03:08] Episode?

[00:03:09] Segment?

[00:03:10] Story.

[00:03:11] Do you have a Florida Man story for me?

[00:03:12] Yes and this is from intern...

[00:03:13] No I'm sorry Becky.

[00:03:14] She sent this to me.

[00:03:15] Becky has been rising in the ranks recently.

[00:03:17] I think yes and it makes me happy that she still thinks of me.

[00:03:20] When she hears a story she's like, Joanna needs this.

[00:03:23] That does make me happy.

[00:03:24] It makes me happy.

[00:03:25] Love you.

[00:03:26] Love you.

[00:03:27] Take it away.

[00:03:28] Oh my gosh.

[00:03:29] You sit down.

[00:03:30] It's all far away.

[00:03:31] Okay so we have our special guest.

[00:03:32] We have an intern here, one of our interns.

[00:03:33] Becky is here to share our Florida Man story.

[00:03:38] Since Becky sent this to you...

[00:03:40] Yeah she sent it to me.

[00:03:41] We want her to read it.

[00:03:42] Go for it.

[00:03:43] Alright.

[00:03:44] Do you want to say hi to the world first?

[00:03:46] Hello world.

[00:03:47] This is neighbor Becky.

[00:03:48] Neighbor Becky.

[00:03:49] She has a lot of titles.

[00:03:52] There is a man caught with fentanyl after getting trapped in a porta potty.

[00:03:59] I can't even.

[00:04:00] How does that even happen?

[00:04:01] I can't even.

[00:04:02] No.

[00:04:03] I don't know.

[00:04:04] The sounds of a person in pain led a deputy to baggies of drugs over the weekend.

[00:04:09] He arrived to the home Sunday evening after reports of a suspicious person and what sounded

[00:04:14] like a person shouting in pain.

[00:04:18] When the deputy arrived a man could be heard yelling loudly.

[00:04:22] As the deputy got closer she could hear the screams and saw a foot sticking out of the

[00:04:27] bottom of the porta potty.

[00:04:28] How though?

[00:04:29] How does that happen?

[00:04:30] How do you get the door shut?

[00:04:33] You choose to go do your drugs in a porta potty.

[00:04:35] That's the better question.

[00:04:36] This is why we needed you on.

[00:04:39] The deputy asked the man to step out of the porta potty and take a seat.

[00:04:43] The man identified as James Goose.

[00:04:45] I said Gauss.

[00:04:47] I guess it is ow, ow.

[00:04:50] He said he got his foot stuck in the closed door of the porta potty.

[00:04:55] The deputy opened the portable restroom and found a small baggie with a powdery substance,

[00:04:59] a syringe, and a larger bag filled with other small baggies.

[00:05:04] The powdery substance tested positive for fentanyl measuring .5 grams.

[00:05:10] James was arrested and now faces two drug charges.

[00:05:14] Do you think he smells like poop?

[00:05:15] I was going to say he's probably in a better environment in the jail than he was in the porta

[00:05:19] potty.

[00:05:20] True.

[00:05:21] So gross.

[00:05:22] When's the last time you've done drugs in a porta potty?

[00:05:26] I mean that's a typical Saturday.

[00:05:28] I'd say yeah.

[00:05:29] I'd say last weekend, you know.

[00:05:32] That's my preferred place of usage.

[00:05:34] Well Becky, we're proud of you.

[00:05:36] Thank you.

[00:05:37] That was great.

[00:05:38] That was great.

[00:05:39] Of course.

[00:05:40] Keep on coming.

[00:05:41] Yeah.

[00:05:42] I'll keep doing my research.

[00:05:43] Yes, thank you.

[00:05:44] I'm going to take Amy's spot.

[00:05:45] I don't know.

[00:05:46] I mean she's been slacking.

[00:05:48] Amy has been.

[00:05:49] I can be the intern to the intern.

[00:05:51] Wow.

[00:05:52] The intern's assistant.

[00:05:53] Okay, I think you're in competition.

[00:05:55] Perfect.

[00:05:56] All right, Becky.

[00:05:57] Thank you.

[00:05:58] Yay.

[00:05:59] Thanks for coming.

[00:06:00] Thanks.

[00:06:01] Thanks.

[00:06:02] Becky, you did a great job.

[00:06:04] Yes.

[00:06:05] Thank you for saving my daughter.

[00:06:06] Yeah, that's the real reason.

[00:06:07] What's the real reason, Becky?

[00:06:08] I don't want to talk about it.

[00:06:09] But you almost threw up.

[00:06:11] Let's just say Becky has a daughter the same age as Joanna's daughter.

[00:06:15] And you needed a costume change.

[00:06:17] Sure, there we go.

[00:06:18] Are you ready for a story today?

[00:06:19] I'm ready.

[00:06:20] Always ready.

[00:06:21] I want to ask you a question first, Joanna.

[00:06:22] Where was I?

[00:06:23] I always say the same thing.

[00:06:24] How long do you think you can realistically stay awake for?

[00:06:27] I thought I was going to say hold my breath.

[00:06:30] Realistically I could probably do 48 hours.

[00:06:34] Really?

[00:06:35] Yeah.

[00:06:36] If I had to, like if I was just at home by myself but if I was like actively

[00:06:40] doing something I could do.

[00:06:42] Like a life or death scenario.

[00:06:43] Yeah.

[00:06:44] Right.

[00:06:45] I did some research and it seems that the longest a person can stay awake that I found

[00:06:49] or the long, sorry, the longest a person has been recorded to stay awake was a 17-year-old

[00:06:54] named Randy Gardner in 1963.

[00:06:57] Apparently he stayed awake for 11 hours and 25 minutes.

[00:07:00] I'm sorry.

[00:07:01] Stayed away 11 hours.

[00:07:02] I'm sorry.

[00:07:03] 11 days.

[00:07:04] I'm going to say I literally did that today.

[00:07:05] I typed 11 hours in my notes.

[00:07:08] 11 days and 25 minutes.

[00:07:11] 1963.

[00:07:12] So how do they know to the minute?

[00:07:15] Like he woke up and he was like alright it's 7.32.

[00:07:18] I mean I wasn't there Joanna.

[00:07:20] How would you know?

[00:07:21] I call BS.

[00:07:22] You call BS?

[00:07:23] Interesting.

[00:07:24] Well that's what I would find.

[00:07:26] According to the website Medical News Today, if you go 72 hours without sleep

[00:07:32] the side effects would include.

[00:07:34] What do you think?

[00:07:35] Very delusional.

[00:07:36] Yeah.

[00:07:37] Being delusional.

[00:07:38] Yeah.

[00:07:39] Seeing things going crazy, irritable.

[00:07:42] All that paranoia, severe memory issues, depression, difficulty communicating.

[00:07:47] All that.

[00:07:48] Because your brain needs to rest.

[00:07:49] I mean I've seen Bird Box.

[00:07:51] That movie with Sandra Bullock?

[00:07:52] Oh yeah.

[00:07:53] That's not what this story is.

[00:07:54] But that's not...

[00:07:55] Oh wait a second.

[00:07:56] I'm getting movies mixed up.

[00:07:57] You are.

[00:07:58] Oh that's not Bird Box.

[00:07:59] No.

[00:08:00] They literally had to be blinded.

[00:08:01] No no no.

[00:08:02] There's a movie on Netflix and it's not this story.

[00:08:05] I'm telling you.

[00:08:06] And it's a movie where the people could not go to sleep.

[00:08:10] Oh it's so crazy.

[00:08:11] You should watch it.

[00:08:12] They were infected with something and nobody in the entire world could fall asleep again.

[00:08:16] Sounds terrible.

[00:08:17] So after days went by people started going delusional, massacres are occurring, like freaking out,

[00:08:23] hallucinating all that.

[00:08:24] Sounds terrible.

[00:08:25] And then they found a cure?

[00:08:26] As they always do.

[00:08:27] Okay.

[00:08:28] That's not the story.

[00:08:29] So that conversation does lead me to our story today.

[00:08:33] I want to take you back to Russia in the 1940s.

[00:08:35] Love it.

[00:08:36] Love it.

[00:08:37] We love us a 1940s Russia.

[00:08:41] Russian researchers in the late 1940s kept five people awake for 15 days using an experimental

[00:08:51] gas based stimulant.

[00:08:53] Why?

[00:08:54] They were kept in a sealed environment to carefully monitor their oxygen intake so the

[00:08:59] gas wouldn't kill them since it was toxic in very high concentrations.

[00:09:05] 1940s.

[00:09:06] 1940s.

[00:09:07] People did wild stuff back then.

[00:09:08] Yes.

[00:09:09] You ask why did they do this?

[00:09:11] Military testing.

[00:09:12] Okay but who...

[00:09:14] Okay.

[00:09:15] You're going to have as many questions as I have lack of answers.

[00:09:20] This was before the time where they could wire a camera to catch the footage of the

[00:09:24] people in this room.

[00:09:27] So they had only microphones and thick glass like porthole sized windows into the room to

[00:09:34] monitor them.

[00:09:36] The room or chamber as it was called was stocked with books for them to read, cots to sleep

[00:09:41] on, running water and a toilet and enough food like dried food that could last all five

[00:09:47] of them for over a month if they needed it.

[00:09:49] Okay pause.

[00:09:50] Did these people volunteer?

[00:09:51] Or were they violent hold?

[00:09:53] Russia 1940s.

[00:09:54] Okay so they were pulled.

[00:09:55] Okay.

[00:09:56] I'm going to tell you right now.

[00:09:57] They were political prisoners.

[00:09:58] Oh okay.

[00:09:59] So yeah they weren't involved in nothing.

[00:10:03] They were told this is what you're doing because you're done anyway.

[00:10:08] They were deemed enemies of the state at the time during World War II so they had no

[00:10:14] other choice.

[00:10:15] That was it.

[00:10:16] As we now know this kind of thing did happen.

[00:10:19] These kinds of things happened in the past along with many other mysteries that I don't

[00:10:23] want the government tracking me down for discussing on a public platform.

[00:10:28] Agreed.

[00:10:29] Russia.

[00:10:30] Yeah.

[00:10:31] Okay everything was fine for the first five days of the experiment.

[00:10:33] Five days.

[00:10:34] Geez I couldn't imagine.

[00:10:35] Gas stimulant to keep them awake.

[00:10:39] Everything was fine the first five days.

[00:10:40] The subjects hardly complained having been promised falsely that they would be freed

[00:10:46] if they submitted to the test and did not sleep for 30 days.

[00:10:51] What?

[00:10:52] Okay.

[00:10:53] Gosh.

[00:10:54] Could you imagine just 1940s?

[00:10:56] No.

[00:10:57] No.

[00:10:58] Listen if you stay awake for a month no go.

[00:11:00] Okay okay.

[00:11:01] Their conversations and activities were monitored and it was noted that they continued to talk

[00:11:07] about increasingly now after the you know as the five days are going on increasingly

[00:11:12] traumatic incidents from their past with each other.

[00:11:15] They started kind of opening up.

[00:11:16] Wait men or women age range.

[00:11:19] I can tell you a mixture of men and women that's all I'm going to say.

[00:11:22] Okay.

[00:11:23] Okay.

[00:11:24] And the general tone of their conversations as the days went on took on a darker aspect

[00:11:28] after the four day mark it got weird.

[00:11:31] I mean it was trauma bonding if I ever heard of it like I'd be telling you my whole life

[00:11:35] story if we had nothing to do.

[00:11:36] Sure 30 days.

[00:11:37] After five days they started to complain about the circumstances and events that

[00:11:42] led them to where they were and they started to develop severe paranoia.

[00:11:46] I went to.

[00:11:47] Right?

[00:11:49] Whatever reason got them in the situation they were letting it out.

[00:11:53] Then after five days you want to know what happened?

[00:11:57] Somebody died.

[00:11:58] They stopped talking to each other completely.

[00:12:00] Okay.

[00:12:01] And began whispering into the microphones.

[00:12:05] Just like that are actual words.

[00:12:07] Actual words.

[00:12:09] But oddly they all seem to think that they could win the trust of the experimenters

[00:12:14] by turning over the other subjects in captivity with them.

[00:12:18] How would you turn them over?

[00:12:19] They're already in jail.

[00:12:20] Exactly.

[00:12:21] The researchers suspected this was an effect of the gas itself.

[00:12:25] Oh.

[00:12:26] Okay.

[00:12:27] Just this odd thinking not communicating with each other and feeling like they needed

[00:12:30] to rat each other out.

[00:12:31] Like it was all a competition or something.

[00:12:33] And this was after-

[00:12:34] Like Big Brother.

[00:12:35] Have you ever watched that show?

[00:12:36] Yeah.

[00:12:37] That's stupid.

[00:12:38] Vote for me.

[00:12:39] Wait what did they say?

[00:12:40] Vote me out of the house?

[00:12:41] Head of household.

[00:12:42] Head of household.

[00:12:43] HOH.

[00:12:44] I want to VHH.

[00:12:45] After- oh that's my place.

[00:12:46] Typical.

[00:12:48] After nine days the first of them just started screaming.

[00:12:53] Oh God.

[00:12:55] He ran the length of the room and repeatedly yelled at the top of his lungs for three

[00:13:00] hours straight.

[00:13:04] Three hours.

[00:13:05] I hope this is a movie.

[00:13:09] After this amount of time he continued attempting to scream but was only able to produce

[00:13:14] squeaking sounds because it's been three hours of constant screaming and the researchers

[00:13:22] assumed that he physically had torn his vocal cords.

[00:13:26] Lost his voice.

[00:13:27] After three hours.

[00:13:28] After three hours.

[00:13:29] I mean constant screaming.

[00:13:30] Stop.

[00:13:31] I know I was waiting for that one.

[00:13:32] Oh my God.

[00:13:33] Three hours straight.

[00:13:34] I'm surprised.

[00:13:35] The other ones didn't like try to kill him.

[00:13:37] Well let's keep going.

[00:13:39] Okay.

[00:13:40] The most surprising thing about this behavior to your point is how the other captives reacted

[00:13:47] to his constant screaming.

[00:13:49] Being that there was zero reaction.

[00:13:53] They did not react to his screaming.

[00:13:55] This is normal.

[00:13:56] I'm not surprised.

[00:13:57] I'm not surprised.

[00:13:58] I'm not surprised.

[00:13:59] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:00] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:01] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:02] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:03] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:04] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:05] I'm not surprised.

[00:14:06] I'm just like this is normal.

[00:14:07] He ran the length of this room back and forth screaming and they just did nothing.

[00:14:10] You know what they did as he was screaming?

[00:14:12] continued whispering into the microphones until a second person started screaming.

[00:14:19] Now we just have this chorus of screams.

[00:14:22] There's five?

[00:14:23] Yeah.

[00:14:24] Okay.

[00:14:25] So two out of three are two out of three.

[00:14:29] You got it.

[00:14:30] Good job.

[00:14:31] How many of your math skills?

[00:14:32] Um.

[00:14:33] two non-screaming captives started to take the books apart.

[00:14:40] It's like an insane asylum.

[00:14:44] And smeared page after page with their own feces and used their feces as a form of paste.

[00:14:53] And calmly pasted the books covered in poo over the glass portholes that were being

[00:14:58] used to watch them.

[00:15:01] So now you can't see us anymore beaches.

[00:15:03] You can see our poo.

[00:15:04] You can see our poo smeared on these fucking books.

[00:15:07] That's disgusting.

[00:15:08] That's the smell.

[00:15:09] I mean, why did Becky have to come over and save us today?

[00:15:12] Stop.

[00:15:13] I don't want to think of this.

[00:15:14] Joanna pooped her pants.

[00:15:15] I did not.

[00:15:16] Yeah, I'm wearing toddler underwear.

[00:15:18] Listen, moms, dads, you guys who are parents, you know it happens.

[00:15:24] No judgment.

[00:15:25] It happened to my girls one time at the beach.

[00:15:26] Oh, oh.

[00:15:27] My daughter.

[00:15:28] Yeah, yes.

[00:15:29] There was a beach that had no public restroom nearby.

[00:15:32] And if we, if you're turning us off at this news.

[00:15:35] Sorry.

[00:15:36] I'm sorry.

[00:15:37] But welcome back.

[00:15:38] Come back in like 30 seconds.

[00:15:40] And I had to improvise and it was a horrible experience.

[00:15:43] So that is nothing compared to two seconds of Becky.

[00:15:47] We need you.

[00:15:48] Neighbor Becky.

[00:15:49] Neighbor Becky.

[00:15:50] After they covered the portholes with poop pasted books, pages, poop pasted

[00:15:56] book pages, put that on shirt.

[00:15:59] After they did this and the researchers couldn't watch them anymore, the screaming completely

[00:16:02] stopped, the whispering completely stopped.

[00:16:06] It all just stopped.

[00:16:08] Then three days passed with zero sounds at all.

[00:16:12] Can they see inside?

[00:16:13] They can't see inside because no, because this is in the 40s.

[00:16:17] They didn't have like live TV footage that they could wire.

[00:16:20] They just had the microphone sounds, the sounds from the microphones that they could hear

[00:16:24] live and they covered up the windows.

[00:16:26] They didn't want to crack the door.

[00:16:28] There's gas in there.

[00:16:29] We'll turn it off for a second.

[00:16:30] Well, let me keep going.

[00:16:31] Okay.

[00:16:32] Three days, no sound.

[00:16:33] Hold your breath.

[00:16:34] The researchers checked the microphones every hour to make sure that they were working because

[00:16:38] they're thinking, what the fuck?

[00:16:39] Three days.

[00:16:40] Three days, no sounds.

[00:16:41] Since they thought it would be impossible, impossible that no sound could be coming

[00:16:45] with five people inside the room.

[00:16:47] Zero sounds.

[00:16:48] The oxygen consumption in the chamber because they were able to check that indicated

[00:16:53] that all five were still alive.

[00:16:55] They were able to monitor how much was being breathed in and then use that to make that

[00:16:59] determination.

[00:17:00] In fact, it was the amount of oxygen five people would consume at a very heavy, heavy

[00:17:05] level of exercise.

[00:17:07] So that's what I was, that's how I think it too, right?

[00:17:11] Like they're sitting there like strenuous exercise.

[00:17:13] They're breathing like that.

[00:17:14] Okay.

[00:17:15] It makes me take a deep breath.

[00:17:17] Since there was no sound at all coming through and the researchers couldn't see into the

[00:17:21] room on the 14th day, they felt like they needed to try and get a reaction from the

[00:17:26] captives.

[00:17:27] Because the poop is now hardened.

[00:17:29] They can't see through the windows.

[00:17:30] Yeah.

[00:17:31] They used the intercom system inside the chamber hoping to get any response from the captives.

[00:17:37] They were assuming that they were either dead physically or at least like brain dead

[00:17:42] or unconscious.

[00:17:43] Because you haven't slept.

[00:17:44] You haven't slept 14 days.

[00:17:46] So they announced quote.

[00:17:49] And I quote.

[00:17:50] We are opening the chamber to test the microphones.

[00:17:55] Step away from the door and lie flat on the floor or you will be shot.

[00:18:00] Compliance will earn one of you your immediate freedom.

[00:18:03] Heck yeah, man.

[00:18:04] And quote.

[00:18:05] Before they could even open the door to check on the group, they heard in a calm voice

[00:18:08] one of the people say we no longer want to be freed.

[00:18:12] What?

[00:18:13] That's it.

[00:18:14] Whoa.

[00:18:15] As a group that's that one person.

[00:18:17] One person.

[00:18:18] We no longer want to be freed.

[00:18:19] Like you say it.

[00:18:20] No, you say it.

[00:18:21] Yeah, seriously.

[00:18:23] This freaked the researchers out so much.

[00:18:26] They spoke with the military forces funding this project and decided that since they couldn't

[00:18:30] get the captives to respond to any other way, they couldn't really collect the data that

[00:18:35] they the whole purpose of this experiment was.

[00:18:37] So it was time to open the chamber at midnight on the 15th day.

[00:18:41] What was the hypothesis behind this?

[00:18:44] Like the scientific like.

[00:18:46] Well they were testing a gas stimulant.

[00:18:48] To see if so like the military could stay awake.

[00:18:51] That's what I would that's yeah, that's how I would see it too.

[00:18:53] How would they do that?

[00:18:54] If like if I'm in the military.

[00:18:56] Like if you're on the field.

[00:18:57] Yeah in the field like don't just have like a like a fish tank, fish bowl on my head

[00:19:02] like pumping like a gas mask probably that's what I would assume.

[00:19:05] Okay.

[00:19:06] So they to do this so they wanted to open the chamber at midnight on the 15th day.

[00:19:09] They had to flush out the stimulant gas that was keeping them awake and then

[00:19:12] they had to fill it with fresh air.

[00:19:13] Of course.

[00:19:14] Which makes sense.

[00:19:15] Like experiment over.

[00:19:16] Immediately when the stimulant gases began to recede.

[00:19:20] Voices from the microphones began to call out.

[00:19:23] Three different voices began begging, pleading for the gas to be turned back on.

[00:19:28] What?

[00:19:29] This.

[00:19:30] I hope this is a movie.

[00:19:32] This being the Russian military they didn't take orders from no criminals.

[00:19:36] They opened that bitch and soldiers were sent inside to retrieve the quote unquote test

[00:19:41] subjects.

[00:19:42] Yes.

[00:19:43] Oh gosh.

[00:19:44] Why do you do things like that?

[00:19:46] Because it's freaking weird.

[00:19:49] When the soldiers entered, the group began to scream and shout louder than ever.

[00:19:54] All except that one who's got no fucking voice anymore.

[00:19:58] Screams were also heard by the soldiers when they went in.

[00:20:01] To what they saw when they entered the chamber.

[00:20:04] Are you ready?

[00:20:06] Yeah.

[00:20:07] Four of the five subjects were still alive.

[00:20:10] Oh no.

[00:20:11] Although alive was like a relative term here and you're about to see why.

[00:20:16] The food rations past day five had been barely touched.

[00:20:20] So what were they eating?

[00:20:21] Their poo.

[00:20:22] They found chunks of meat from the dead test subjects thighs and chest stuffed into the

[00:20:27] drain in the center of the chamber blocking the drain on the floor and allowing four

[00:20:32] inches of water to rise up on the floor and it wasn't just water.

[00:20:36] Poo and urine.

[00:20:37] It was also blood.

[00:20:41] They used the chunks from his thighs to stop the, okay if this is when you're gagging.

[00:20:47] Is it going to only get worse?

[00:20:50] All four surviving test subjects, all five surviving, four surviving, yeah.

[00:20:56] Also had large portions of muscle and skin torn away from their bodies and it was obvious

[00:21:01] that they had used their hands and fingers to break away their skin and muscle not

[00:21:07] their teeth.

[00:21:08] Wait, they were, they were, oh gosh.

[00:21:11] They ripped, mm-hmm.

[00:21:12] They figured this out because the captives had exposed bone on their fingertips.

[00:21:16] What?

[00:21:17] And it was realized that each person self inflicted this harm.

[00:21:21] So they were going crazy.

[00:21:22] Yes ma'am.

[00:21:23] After.

[00:21:24] They were ripping out their own skin and muscles.

[00:21:27] After how many days I wonder?

[00:21:29] Five.

[00:21:30] After five days is when things started getting weird.

[00:21:32] Now this is where I just can't even, okay?

[00:21:35] No.

[00:21:37] The abdominal organs below the rib cage of all four people had been removed.

[00:21:41] Wait, wait, say it again?

[00:21:43] The abdominal organs, Joanna's touching, we're touching our rib cage below the rib cage.

[00:21:49] Do you, what organs are even there?

[00:21:51] Your intestines.

[00:21:52] Okay.

[00:21:53] They had been removed.

[00:21:55] They were still alive looking at their bodies.

[00:21:59] I'm really hoping this isn't a movie.

[00:22:01] They had removed the skin from their chest as well.

[00:22:04] Oh my gosh.

[00:22:05] The heart, lungs and diaphragm remained in place but the skin and most of the muscles attached

[00:22:11] on their chest to the ribs had been ripped off exposing their lungs through their rib

[00:22:16] cages.

[00:22:17] You should have like trigger warning people.

[00:22:19] Oh trigger warning.

[00:22:20] Too late.

[00:22:21] All their blood vessels and organs remained intact.

[00:22:24] They had just been now back to the organs and their abdomen.

[00:22:28] They had been taken out of their bodies and laid on the floor near them.

[00:22:32] How are they still alive?

[00:22:33] Fan out.

[00:22:34] Fan out their stomach, their intestines out of their stomach laying around them.

[00:22:38] All the four.

[00:22:39] All four.

[00:22:40] All of them.

[00:22:41] It was realized as well that they weren't eating the food rations and they weren't

[00:22:44] eating their poop, Joanna.

[00:22:45] They were eating themselves.

[00:22:47] Joanna, stop gagging.

[00:22:50] Joanna, are you going to throw up?

[00:22:52] Joanna!

[00:22:53] Stop!

[00:22:54] I can't.

[00:22:55] That's just so, I'm just imagining the smell.

[00:23:04] Well, now you can see why the soldier started screaming when they walked in.

[00:23:09] My eyes are watering.

[00:23:10] Are you crying?

[00:23:11] My eyes are watering.

[00:23:12] Oh my gosh.

[00:23:13] This should, do not, can you put a warning on the bottom of this?

[00:23:17] Do not be eating.

[00:23:19] You should not be eating.

[00:23:21] I'm so nervous.

[00:23:22] My stomach is like turning.

[00:23:26] Most of the soldiers were Russian special operatives at this facility but still even

[00:23:30] with all their training and all the crazy shit that they've seen in their past, many

[00:23:36] of them refused to return to the chamber to remove the people.

[00:23:39] They said, nope, not a fucking chance.

[00:23:42] Okay but when they said, oh my gosh, could you imagine, like were they sitting at their

[00:23:45] bed?

[00:23:46] Did they just look at them like, what are you going to do about this?

[00:23:48] Yeah, what are, what are you going to do?

[00:23:52] I like your laugh.

[00:23:54] The captives throughout this can, so back to the soldiers went in to retrieve them.

[00:24:00] This is what they saw.

[00:24:01] The captives throughout this continued to scream to be left in the chamber and begged for the

[00:24:05] gas to be turned back on.

[00:24:06] They screamed that they didn't want to fall asleep.

[00:24:09] I wonder if they felt a little pain?

[00:24:11] Yeah, because if it's silent, I think that they were beyond pain at this point.

[00:24:17] They were obviously, wait, maybe that's why he was, no, because you said he was running

[00:24:21] back and forth.

[00:24:22] I'm wondering if the screaming was when they were ripping apart their organs or whatever.

[00:24:26] You said the one guy was walking back and forth.

[00:24:28] Running back and forth screaming.

[00:24:30] Yeah.

[00:24:31] So maybe he was doing that because they were tickered and then a second person started to

[00:24:35] scream.

[00:24:36] That's a good point.

[00:24:37] They were obviously removed from the chamber but fought as much as their frail bodies

[00:24:42] would allow them to.

[00:24:43] They fought so fiercely that one of the Russian soldiers died from having his throat

[00:24:47] ripped out.

[00:24:48] What?

[00:24:49] How do you have that much strength?

[00:24:50] I have no idea.

[00:24:51] That gas.

[00:24:52] Eating those thigh muscles.

[00:24:54] What the?

[00:24:55] The muscle?

[00:24:56] Your eating is giving you muscle.

[00:24:57] The soldiers were so affected that more than one of them later committed suicide after

[00:25:04] this event.

[00:25:05] One of them won.

[00:25:06] So two?

[00:25:07] Did you hear what I said?

[00:25:08] Yeah.

[00:25:09] Which is terrible.

[00:25:10] Terrible.

[00:25:11] In this struggle trying to get them out of the chamber, one of the four living

[00:25:12] subjects had his spleen ruptured and he bled out immediately.

[00:25:17] The doctors tried to sedate him but couldn't.

[00:25:19] His like he like could not be put to sleep.

[00:25:22] He was injected with more than ten times the human dose of something similar to morphine

[00:25:26] and nothing.

[00:25:27] It had no effect on him.

[00:25:28] He eventually completely bled out and eventually died.

[00:25:31] The surviving three test subjects now were heavily restrained because hello someone

[00:25:37] had just died.

[00:25:38] They killed one of the soldiers.

[00:25:39] All of their intestines are out.

[00:25:41] Yeah, it's almost like they have massive strength and how?

[00:25:46] They've been moved to the medical facility in the building.

[00:25:50] Two of the three only had vocal cords that were still intact because remember the one

[00:25:55] that was screaming is still alive.

[00:25:56] They continuously begged for the gas and demanded to be kept awake.

[00:26:00] They begged for it.

[00:26:01] It's so weird.

[00:26:02] It's so weird.

[00:26:03] But that gas must have messed with them.

[00:26:05] Big time, Abby.

[00:26:06] I know.

[00:26:07] The most injured of the three was taken to the only surgical operating room that

[00:26:10] the facility had.

[00:26:13] In the process of preparing the subject to have his organs placed back inside his

[00:26:18] body.

[00:26:19] It was found that he was immune to the sedative that they had given him to prepare him for

[00:26:24] the surgery.

[00:26:25] Interesting.

[00:26:26] He fought furiously against his restraints when the anesthesia was brought out to put

[00:26:31] him under.

[00:26:32] It took only a little more anesthetic than normal to put him under and the instant

[00:26:38] his eyelids closed, his heart stopped.

[00:26:41] I was going to say, I was going to say, his organs stopped.

[00:26:44] Oh my gosh.

[00:26:45] It's crazy.

[00:26:46] In autopsy, it was found that his blood had tripled the amount of normal oxygen levels.

[00:26:50] Holy cow.

[00:26:51] His muscles that were still attached to his skeleton were badly torn and he had broken

[00:26:55] nine bones in his struggle to not be subdued.

[00:26:58] That just hurt.

[00:27:00] I don't like it.

[00:27:02] I don't either.

[00:27:03] The second survivor had been the first of the group of five to start screaming.

[00:27:06] His vocal cords were completely destroyed so he wasn't able to beg or object to

[00:27:10] any surgery.

[00:27:11] He couldn't make.

[00:27:12] He just kept shaking his head violently when the

[00:27:15] anesthesia was brought near him.

[00:27:17] So being that the former subject had just died when they put him under, one of the

[00:27:22] doctors suggested they try the surgery without anesthetic and he nodded his head

[00:27:25] yes.

[00:27:26] Stop.

[00:27:27] Oh gosh.

[00:27:28] They went on to perform a six hour surgery on him and he did not react for the entire

[00:27:33] six hour procedure.

[00:27:34] What kind of gas was this?

[00:27:37] Fucking.

[00:27:38] Dang.

[00:27:39] The whole gas of replacing his organs and trying to cover them with his remaining

[00:27:43] skin.

[00:27:45] He did not react for six hours.

[00:27:46] That's crazy.

[00:27:47] When the surgery ended, the subject kept trying to communicate with the doctor.

[00:27:51] He couldn't talk or really make any other noise and like a wheezing sound so they gave

[00:27:55] him a paper to write it out and he wrote keep cutting.

[00:28:04] The other two test subjects were given the same surgeries both without anesthetic

[00:28:09] as well although they had to be injected with a paralytic for the operation because

[00:28:13] the surgeon found it impossible to perform the operation due to the patient's continuous

[00:28:18] laughing.

[00:28:19] Oh, what?

[00:28:20] Yep.

[00:28:21] He had to paralyze them so they're awake, they're conscious but they can't move.

[00:28:25] That's insane.

[00:28:26] Once they were paralyzed the subjects could only follow the doctors and researchers

[00:28:29] like with their eyes you know.

[00:28:31] After the surgery the paralytic they were given cleared their systems in an abnormally

[00:28:36] short period of time and as quickly as possible they were found trying to escape

[00:28:40] their bindings.

[00:28:41] Yes.

[00:28:43] Whatever.

[00:28:44] The moment they could speak again they were asked for the stimulant gas.

[00:28:47] They asked for the stimulant gas again.

[00:28:48] That's crazy.

[00:28:49] Later the researchers tried asking why they had injured themselves, why they had

[00:28:54] ripped out their guts, why they wanted to be given the gas again.

[00:28:58] The only response they got I must remain awake.

[00:29:01] Why?

[00:29:02] Exactly.

[00:29:03] Why?

[00:29:04] It's freaky so eventually the researchers and military personnel began to disagree

[00:29:10] on what to do next.

[00:29:13] It was decided though that they'd be put back in the chamber.

[00:29:17] That's what they were begging for.

[00:29:19] I mean at this point why not?

[00:29:22] I guess for the sake of science and to see what kind of fuckery would come.

[00:29:25] Like what are you going to do?

[00:29:27] That's what they want.

[00:29:28] They can't go back to society or jail.

[00:29:32] All three subjects restraints were put back on after their surgeries and they

[00:29:36] were going to put them back in the chamber.

[00:29:38] This all happened very quickly.

[00:29:41] Obviously they have restraints on because of what happened when they tried to get them

[00:29:44] out the first time.

[00:29:45] The researchers honestly were at a loss of what to do here.

[00:29:49] They couldn't determine what the best outcome would be.

[00:29:52] Their project was an epic failure at this point but like I said they wanted to see

[00:29:56] what would happen.

[00:29:57] The commanding officer and ex KGB which is naughty naughty.

[00:30:02] If you watch it always reminds me.

[00:30:04] The office.

[00:30:05] Now it's going to say stranger things.

[00:30:06] The office.

[00:30:07] There's a joke when he knocks on the door and it's the KGB and then he slaps.

[00:30:11] Jim slaps to whiten the face.

[00:30:13] The KGB will wait for no one.

[00:30:15] Molly will know.

[00:30:16] Molly.

[00:30:17] I think many people will know.

[00:30:20] The commanding officer who was an ex KGB made the order to put them back and wanted

[00:30:25] to see what the outcome would be if they were put back on the gas.

[00:30:27] I mean whatever.

[00:30:29] The researchers strongly objected but obviously were overruled.

[00:30:32] In preparation for being sealed in the chamber again the subjects were connected to an EEG

[00:30:37] monitor and had their restraints padded for long term confinement.

[00:30:41] Oh gosh could you imagine just being stuck in a bed?

[00:30:44] Well who knew how long they didn't know how long this was going to go on for so.

[00:30:48] She just put oven mitts on their hands.

[00:30:50] Oven mitts on their hands.

[00:30:51] All three stopped struggling the moment it was let slip that they were going to

[00:30:55] go back into the chamber with the gas.

[00:30:57] It was obvious that at this point all three were putting up on a great struggle to

[00:31:01] stay awake because you know it's been however long since they've been taken out of the

[00:31:05] chamber.

[00:31:06] This is how they kept trying to stay awake because they would not let themselves fall

[00:31:08] asleep.

[00:31:10] One of the subjects that could speak was humming loudly and continuously.

[00:31:14] The mute subject was straining his legs against the leather bindings with like all

[00:31:17] his might just constantly back and forth focusing on his leg movement.

[00:31:21] The third subject was holding his head off his pillow and blinking rapidly so

[00:31:25] these are kind of the awkward things they were doing.

[00:31:27] Why don't you just eventually fall asleep?

[00:31:29] I know.

[00:31:30] Well, now they had the EEG monitors on.

[00:31:35] They saw looking at this third subject that the readings were normal most of the

[00:31:39] time the one who was blinking rapidly but sometimes the readings would flat line

[00:31:44] inexplicably so like to what you're saying like aren't you isn't your body

[00:31:47] just gonna like shut down.

[00:31:49] It looked as if he were repeatedly suffering brain death and then coming

[00:31:53] back brain.

[00:31:55] Before returning to normal then one nurse saw his eye slip shut at the

[00:31:58] same moment his head hit the pillow.

[00:32:00] His brain waves immediately changed to that of a deep sleep then flat line for

[00:32:04] the last time and his heart simultaneously stopped dead.

[00:32:07] Okay, well they're in the chamber with or without gas.

[00:32:10] They're about to be put back in the chamber with the gas.

[00:32:13] This is what's happening.

[00:32:15] The only remaining subject that could speak started screaming to be

[00:32:19] sealed in now like they just saw this person fall asleep and die.

[00:32:23] Put me in.

[00:32:25] His brain wave showed the same flat lines as the one who had just died from

[00:32:28] falling asleep.

[00:32:29] The commander gave the order to seal the chamber with both subjects left

[00:32:33] still inside as well as the commander wanted three researchers to go in with

[00:32:38] them.

[00:32:38] With or without masks?

[00:32:40] Well, I assume like with masks you know so they wouldn't but they had

[00:32:44] heavy bonding at this point so they wouldn't be able to hurt the

[00:32:47] researchers right these two last people.

[00:32:49] You would think.

[00:32:50] How do you think the three unlucky researchers responded to being told?

[00:32:55] Heck no.

[00:32:57] One of them who found out he was ordered to go in the chamber

[00:33:00] immediately drew his gun and shot the commander point blank.

[00:33:04] Stop.

[00:33:06] Between the eyes then turn yep then turned the gun on the mute

[00:33:11] subject and blew his brains out as well.

[00:33:13] At this point panic ensued and his coworkers fled hiding behind you

[00:33:20] know wherever they could hide because he was shooting people.

[00:33:23] He then pointed his gun at the remaining subject who was still restrained to a

[00:33:26] bed and he said quote I won't be locked in here with these things not

[00:33:30] with you what are you I must know.

[00:33:33] Yeah.

[00:33:34] The man wielding the gun.

[00:33:36] The subject smiled the final one alive and then in the most

[00:33:40] creepiest of things to say when someone has been awake for weeks

[00:33:43] yeah is completely delusional and is scared of sleeping thinking it will

[00:33:48] kill him stated I'm gonna read you what he said.

[00:33:50] Okay.

[00:33:51] Have you forgotten so easily we are you we are the madness that lurks

[00:33:55] within you begging to be free at every moment in your deepest animal mind

[00:33:59] we are what you hide from in your beds at night we are what you

[00:34:04] sorry we are what you sedate into silence and paralysis when you go

[00:34:10] to the nocturnal haven where we cannot tread.

[00:34:13] What that's pretty deep that is pretty deep for someone who's been

[00:34:17] crazy yeah the researcher shot him dead immediately and the subjects last

[00:34:21] words were so nearly free.

[00:34:24] So Joanna.

[00:34:27] Joanna stop rubbing your eyes is this story true or not.

[00:34:34] We rush it does crazy stuff I must say true you say true but I want again

[00:34:39] see I wanted it to be a movie but then all that stuff with the poo

[00:34:43] at the poo the organs organs.

[00:34:45] I was.

[00:34:47] Well you say true yeah all right Joanna am I wrong don't be mad at me please

[00:34:52] this one's a little different what is what does that mean please don't be mad at

[00:34:56] me listeners I switched it up a little bit first of all this story is complete

[00:35:00] fiction.

[00:35:03] Do you need to hug no I don't want to touch you don't touch me like sweating

[00:35:05] I was literally sweating this entire episode it's completely fiction

[00:35:09] it's a Russian urban legend and it is not a movie.

[00:35:14] But it is a written story.

[00:35:17] It is yeah it's a story I found on a website and say it with me if you know listeners creepy pasta.

[00:35:26] What does that mean I knew you weren't gonna know hold on the reason I say please don't be mad

[00:35:30] is because it's not a movie plot which is the premise of our show so I felt a little guilty

[00:35:34] but it is fiction.

[00:35:36] Here's Carmen's address if you want to write some hate mail.

[00:35:39] It is.

[00:35:41] It is fiction and I felt like taking some artistic liberty this week whatever.

[00:35:47] I came across this story and I felt like it was too good not to share Joanna I wanted to

[00:35:52] give respect to the author and say first and foremost and to those who may have read this

[00:35:57] story because I know y'all have heard it I changed a little bit of the dialogue and verbiage

[00:36:01] in the story.

[00:36:03] To fit as urban tales do well yeah that's a good point to fit my style of speech and

[00:36:08] storytelling so I wouldn't give it away.

[00:36:10] I can't believe you thought it was real I thought it was real too when I heard it the first time

[00:36:13] I really did.

[00:36:14] I mean because Russia does some crazy stuff.

[00:36:16] I know but to credit the person who wrote the story originally I stuck very close to the

[00:36:21] actual text as close as I could but I did change some things.

[00:36:24] I will link it if you'd like to check it out and read it for yourself which I think you

[00:36:28] should not you.

[00:36:28] No and I've already heard it.

[00:36:30] You the listeners if you want to read the actual story.

[00:36:33] So who wrote it?

[00:36:35] Well let's talk a little more about this urban legend so is it real or is it not?

[00:36:40] It's an urban legend.

[00:36:41] Yeah.

[00:36:42] It's not real.

[00:36:42] Yeah but some urban legends do you see that movie urban legend?

[00:36:46] Yes hello.

[00:36:48] The lights remember like oh you're not supposed to flash your lights I still flash my lights.

[00:36:51] I do too the one that creeps me out the most is the person in your backseat.

[00:36:55] And then that guy's trying to tell her.

[00:36:57] Oh the gas station attendant I was driving not that long ago and I was in my car it's

[00:37:02] night and something hit me something hit me in my car I'm like what the fuck and I looked down

[00:37:07] and there was like a screw on my lap.

[00:37:09] Was your window open?

[00:37:10] No so I thought is someone in my car and then I someone in my car like I yelled it and then

[00:37:15] I slammed on the brakes and then I slammed on the brakes I have an SUV where the third row

[00:37:19] is down so it's like open trunk space so I was like if I slam on my right no I didn't hear a

[00:37:24] thud I heard my daughter's soccer ball like rolling around and then I told Brett when I got home

[00:37:28] he was like what the fuck.

[00:37:33] Anyway this story is widely considered the best creepypasta written and if you don't know what

[00:37:39] a creepypasta is it's the term for horror stories and legends that have been shared around the

[00:37:44] internet.

[00:37:45] Never heard of it?

[00:37:46] I know and it's if you want to get scared and freaked out this is where you go.

[00:37:51] The stories are meant to be scary and can oftentimes have an ominous anonymous writer

[00:37:56] and they're usually very gruesome and freaky.

[00:37:59] Do you remember the whole slender man thing?

[00:38:02] That was a creepypasta it started out as a story on the internet.

[00:38:07] When like what's the original date for this story?

[00:38:10] In the early 2000s I was going to say this later but I can mention it now I couldn't

[00:38:15] track down the original author because some people have adapted it into short films or

[00:38:20] other novels or been inspired by it but I couldn't figure out who originally wrote it.

[00:38:24] So what's the title of that story?

[00:38:26] The Russian Sleep Experiment.

[00:38:28] Oh that's lame.

[00:38:30] That's it's one of the best noted as like one of the best creepypastas of all time because

[00:38:35] it could it sounds real that's what's scary.

[00:38:36] But the title is like so basic.

[00:38:38] It's like our Florida man.

[00:38:40] So basic yeah.

[00:38:40] It's like the many people that everybody dies.

[00:38:42] Yeah there's been debate about whether or not this story is true but based on

[00:38:48] actual science it's not likely.

[00:38:50] There's an example here's an example.

[00:38:52] CCTV was invented in before the 1940s you know like streetcams with the blurry

[00:38:58] images and stuff whatever.

[00:39:00] So why couldn't they have cameras in the chamber?

[00:39:03] What year?

[00:39:04] 40s.

[00:39:04] Well that was Russia I feel like well here's the thing here's the counter thought not really

[00:39:10] the hello they were like really high in technology rocket ships.

[00:39:17] Space ships.

[00:39:18] The space race Sputnik.

[00:39:20] Space race Sputnik.

[00:39:22] But how good was CCTV back then?

[00:39:24] Could they watch live footage in the 40s as it was happening?

[00:39:28] Was it blurry?

[00:39:29] Could they really even see?

[00:39:31] Okay I'm telling you like why people argue that it could have really happened.

[00:39:34] Could they live stream whatever and then other debates that pop up like if you

[00:39:39] research the topic whether or not an actual gas has ever even existed that

[00:39:44] could keep a person awake for that long.

[00:39:45] Probably.

[00:39:46] Well no it's impossible from what I looked up it's impossible.

[00:39:51] You're not a scientist.

[00:39:52] Well I am a mathematician along with the hallucinations you would have if you were

[00:39:57] to be awake for two weeks would make menial tasks and communication not

[00:40:01] realistic they wouldn't be able to communicate the way that they did

[00:40:05] if they were really awake that long.

[00:40:06] The fact that it could be true though is what makes it scary.

[00:40:10] I know thinking about the actual history and scientific fact in our logical brain

[00:40:13] makes us say like no but when you're listening to it or reading it you have

[00:40:19] that moment when you're like wait what?

[00:40:22] Well because like I said Russia people prisoners they don't I feel like once

[00:40:26] you're a prisoner in different countries like your life no longer matters.

[00:40:30] I know and you become the test subject.

[00:40:32] Wait wait wait what if you have you never seen that movie broken down

[00:40:35] pallet broke down with Claire Dan.

[00:40:37] They weren't guilty.

[00:40:39] People who kill like the pedophiles.

[00:40:42] They should be test subjects.

[00:40:43] They should be sent to Russian prison.

[00:40:46] Well that one girl is there did you see that that basketball player who brought over a vape?

[00:40:52] What?

[00:40:53] Yeah she was this basketball player.

[00:40:54] She doesn't deserve that then.

[00:40:56] She brought over an illegal drug over to Russia and it's illegal there and

[00:40:59] she's spending 10 years in prison and now she's moved to like I thought a

[00:41:02] concentration camp but it's like she's not in the prison anymore she's like doing some

[00:41:08] hard hard labor.

[00:41:10] Wow.

[00:41:10] For 10 years.

[00:41:11] She can't be brought back to the US.

[00:41:14] There's a lot of political things behind that.

[00:41:17] Yeah.

[00:41:17] Yeah.

[00:41:18] I feel like drugs.

[00:41:20] Like you don't.

[00:41:20] What about the guy who did fentanyl in a port-a-potty?

[00:41:25] Jail.

[00:41:26] See this is a thing with this kind of topic is you can really argue any side.

[00:41:31] That's why it's because you are still doing something illegal

[00:41:34] and you shouldn't have been doing it.

[00:41:36] So how is carrying a vape you know it's not the same.

[00:41:39] But in Russia it was illegal to have it.

[00:41:41] And they give them zero.

[00:41:43] They don't care.

[00:41:43] F.E.C.K.'s.

[00:41:44] They do not care.

[00:41:45] All right I get what you're saying.

[00:41:46] You're saying basically that you don't know what you're saying.

[00:41:49] I know something about a little something.

[00:41:51] And you know a lot about a little.

[00:41:52] A lot about a little.

[00:41:53] But it's hard to form opinions on this kind of stuff because it's

[00:41:56] it's just.

[00:41:57] Because where do you draw the line?

[00:41:58] Where do you draw the line?

[00:41:59] That's the hard part.

[00:42:00] In that movie with Claire Danes I watched it recently as an adult and it was still so

[00:42:03] sad.

[00:42:04] Made me cry when she was left in the prison.

[00:42:07] And then what about the thing in her ear?

[00:42:09] The infection and then she went yeah okay.

[00:42:13] So I think two films came out about this movie but nothing like blockbuster.

[00:42:17] They weren't they were low budget and I haven't seen either.

[00:42:20] Yeah I think one's like 30 minutes.

[00:42:21] I couldn't find the author as I said so to our lovely listeners if you know

[00:42:25] who the original author is share it.

[00:42:28] I'll update the episode.

[00:42:29] Sure.

[00:42:30] Yeah okay.

[00:42:31] I'll do a latest update because I'd love to give them credit but that's what

[00:42:34] makes these horror legends so interesting.

[00:42:36] It's more mysterious.

[00:42:37] When I was reading the story on the Creepypasta website

[00:42:40] I was looking at the comments under the story and I'm going to read you one of the

[00:42:44] comments that I thought was hilarious because people are debating under the

[00:42:47] story.

[00:42:48] Yeah yeah.

[00:42:48] This is like a whole comment section.

[00:42:49] This is what someone said.

[00:42:51] Here's something interesting.

[00:42:52] There was an actual human experimentation camp that was set up during World War II

[00:42:57] for biological and chemical warfare research.

[00:43:00] Subjects were forced to take part in gruesome experiments way more horrific

[00:43:04] than this work of fiction.

[00:43:05] Some of the experiments I don't know why I'm laughing you'll find out.

[00:43:08] Some of the experiments had no kind of contribution to the study and were simply

[00:43:12] conducted for sadistic reasons.

[00:43:14] I'd tell you the name but when I first heard about it and researched it myself

[00:43:17] I was traumatized for a bit.

[00:43:19] I wouldn't wish that on anyone and then the comment underneath it said

[00:43:22] tell us the name.

[00:43:24] What's the name?

[00:43:25] Tell us we need to know.

[00:43:26] I want to look at it.

[00:43:27] The people need to know.

[00:43:28] So that's that's my story for you.

[00:43:31] That was good.

[00:43:32] That's it.

[00:43:33] I mean I honestly I wouldn't have watched it.

[00:43:36] If it was a movie.

[00:43:37] The last one you said was a movie.

[00:43:39] The Witch.

[00:43:41] I still didn't watch it.

[00:43:42] Yeah.

[00:43:43] But it was also on HBO and I don't have HBO anymore.

[00:43:46] Well there's a reason for everything.

[00:43:47] So that's my story for you guys.

[00:43:52] movie plot.
