drinks, share a few laughs, take a dive into the unknown. 4 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,640 I'm your host, Dave, joined as always by my handsome as hell co-host, Sarge. 5 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,640 How's it going, buddy? 6 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:37,640 Hey there. 7 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,640 Woo. 8 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:39,640 Let's do this. 9 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,640 I'm surprised you had a woo in you. 10 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:42,640 I know you're not feeling well. 11 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,480 I did have a woo in me. 12 00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:45,480 That's all right. 13 00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:49,680 I'm going to I'm energized by cryptids inside me. 14 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,960 Well, that's unfortunate because this is not about cryptids. 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:52,960 Actually, maybe it is. 16 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,120 I don't want to spoil it. 17 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,120 We'll get into it. 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,800 But anyways, how are you doing, bud? 19 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:57,800 Not too bad. 20 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:03,080 Just enjoying the lovely weather in New England and grateful that planes aren't falling in 21 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,240 my neighborhood as they were in yours. 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:06,240 Bro, I. 23 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,440 That video was wild. 24 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,400 Yeah, all the videos are wild. 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,680 Also, it's a super tragic story. 26 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,720 I don't know if you heard like the actual horrible. 27 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:15,720 It's absolutely horrible. 28 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,920 Like, I'm not I'm not trying to like shit on it. 29 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:18,920 No, no. 30 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:19,920 Watch the video. 31 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,320 But it's in the plane fell out of the sky. 32 00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:23,580 And that's what blew my mind. 33 00:01:23,580 --> 00:01:25,840 It's wild because like so I was driving. 34 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:31,120 It happened to probably like five minutes before I got onto the highway, because as 35 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:37,280 I was going down 95 south to head home, 95 north was just all emergency vehicles like 36 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,680 they were fucking gunning down. 37 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,440 And I was like, what the fuck is going on here? 38 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,880 And I get home whenever I see something like that. 39 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:48,480 When I parked my car, I'll Google like Philadelphia breaking news just to see what's going on. 40 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:54,000 I was I was not expecting a fucking plane to crash on Roosevelt Boulevard like that 41 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,000 is bananas. 42 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,640 Yeah, it's so wild. 43 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,040 It's such a rare occurrence for a plane to just like lawn dart into somebody's neighborhood. 44 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,840 That's fucking awful. 45 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,920 And it's even worse because it was like a bunch of kids. 46 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:06,920 Right. 47 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,340 So it was a the it was a medical transport. 48 00:02:10,340 --> 00:02:17,560 It was a child from Mexico flew to Shriners to get like surgery, like some sort of operation 49 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,560 or something done. 50 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:19,560 Oh, got it. 51 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:20,560 Got it. 52 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:21,560 OK. 53 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,600 And it was like the kid and the family members like the mom and stuff like that flying back. 54 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,720 Oh, to Mexico after getting treatment and they fucking crash. 55 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,800 But the worst part about it, I mean, that's pretty fucking fucked up, is that literally 56 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,920 within hours, I went on Twitter for some fucking reason. 57 00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:40,320 I don't know why I need to stop doing it. 58 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,320 Already conspiracy theories. 59 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,680 And it's like, of course, of course, flash in the sky. 60 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,400 What is what that explosion doesn't look like. 61 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,920 How a plane explodes like what the dude you don't fucking know. 62 00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:50,920 Like get out of here. 63 00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:53,080 Like how often do you see planes explode? 64 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,080 You fucking idiots. 65 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,680 So someone was like, why is there no debris? 66 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,960 And then they sound like it took five minutes, five seconds for me to find a picture of debris. 67 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,600 They're like, well, why is there no soot on it? 68 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,540 And they're like, well, because fuel when it burns doesn't create soot. 69 00:03:06,540 --> 00:03:08,320 That's not how you know. 70 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,200 And also it was falling from the sky like. 71 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,200 Yeah. 72 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:17,040 And it exploded fast enough probably that it jettisoned quite a bit of that debris before 73 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,040 it all caught fire. 74 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,040 Yeah. 75 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,160 Also, I hate like I love conspiracies, but these ones are not fun and everyone needs 76 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,760 to fucking just take a minute and think critical thinking skills are not people. 77 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,200 Yeah, it's all dumb, but I will say it's a bad time to be flying because I guess this 78 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,760 is like within the past month, this is like the fourth or fifth plane crash, like a fucking 79 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,000 F16 fell out of the sky in Alaska or some shit like that. 80 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,280 Yeah, it's really bad. 81 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,280 Really bad timing right now. 82 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,240 It's only going to get better. 83 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,060 And yeah, and yeah, I'm not even going to touch on the political implications. 84 00:03:51,060 --> 00:03:55,160 It's just fucking awful that so many of these horrible accidents have happened. 85 00:03:55,160 --> 00:04:01,680 And my you know, my first concern was like, oh shit, did this land on Dave? 86 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,720 No, it was in northeast Philly. 87 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,480 I reached out to you so quickly. 88 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:10,000 Yeah, no, luckily I wasn't anywhere near it. 89 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,640 I just would do it was sirens all night. 90 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,640 Like it was wild. 91 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:14,640 Oh yeah. 92 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,640 Oh yeah. 93 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:16,640 No doubt. 94 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,180 Like that doesn't happen in Philly. 95 00:04:18,180 --> 00:04:21,640 The worst we get is people climbing up greased poles and then falling and dying. 96 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,280 Like that's what happens in Philly. 97 00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:24,280 You know what I mean? 98 00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:27,280 I mean, I worry because there's an airport right near my house and there's little there's 99 00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:30,600 small planes that are always flying overhead. 100 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,800 And then there's Gillette Stadium not too far from me. 101 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:39,680 So there's always helicopters go into the stadium because Bob Kraft doesn't drive apparently. 102 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,120 First of all, if I was Bob Kraft, I wouldn't either. 103 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,680 Like if I was Bob, no, I wouldn't either. 104 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,160 The traffic on 95 is a disaster across the nation. 105 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,580 So across the East Coast. 106 00:04:53,580 --> 00:04:56,320 So I don't blame him, but his helicopter always flies over my house. 107 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:01,040 And I'm always like, Jesus Christ, those things, they literally just fall out of the sky. 108 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,880 So I don't want that to happen in my backyard. 109 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,040 I've seen black Hawk down. 110 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:10,120 It just happens sometimes. 111 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,960 Well I believe Rockets were involved in that situation, but whatever. 112 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,080 On a lighter note, I went to the eye doctor. 113 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:23,800 This is real quick for the first, I was the eye doctor for the first time in like 20 years 114 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,440 and nice. 115 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,440 Everything was going good. 116 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:32,260 And they did the thing like the one or two, three or four, like that whole thing. 117 00:05:32,260 --> 00:05:38,180 And at the end of it, she goes, you are like right on the cusp of not being allowed to 118 00:05:38,180 --> 00:05:41,720 drive legally without glasses. 119 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:51,000 So once Mike, within a few weeks, you'll, you'll have a new, a new Dave look, which 120 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:56,160 will be glasses and a nice, yeah, it'll be, it'll be, you know, just a fresh new look 121 00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,520 but the same great taste Dave that you've always come to the old man club, but I got, 122 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,280 I got horn room glasses because okay, I thought those were fancy. 123 00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:07,720 Uh, all right, Sarge, today's episode. 124 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:14,080 There's a lot of talk going around about a certain country overseas that may have meddled 125 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,080 in our elections. 126 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:22,120 You know, you know, the one I'm talking about, uh, France, Germany, England, Russia, North 127 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,120 Korea, Iran, Russia. 128 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,120 Okay. 129 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:34,920 Today's arch, we are going to be heading to the motherland, the motherland, the mother. 130 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,400 I had nothing prepared to say over that. 131 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,040 I just thought it was fun to play the cannibalism capital of the world. 132 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:41,040 No. 133 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:47,760 So we're going to be heading to Russia to talk about, I don't know if they're aliens 134 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:48,760 or crypto. 135 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,880 I don't really know what they are or it could just be some Russians really zooted out on, 136 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,200 on crocodile. 137 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,560 It could be, but we're going to make a lake bike hall. 138 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,640 Are you familiar with lake bike hall? 139 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:00,640 I am not. 140 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:01,640 I have not had the pleasure. 141 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:02,640 Okay. 142 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,640 So I'm located in southeastern Siberia. 143 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,640 That's a pleasure. 144 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,640 I don't know why that got me. 145 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:16,640 Maybe one day. 146 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:21,320 So, uh, before we real quick, uh, today's episode is, this is a topic that I, I touched 147 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,680 on briefly like two years ago. 148 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,000 Um, it probably like in like the fourth episode I ever did, we, I did like a small little 149 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,920 brief breakdown of it and I promised that I was going to do a full episode on it. 150 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,060 So now we're going to, so anyways, we're going to lake bike hall. 151 00:07:35,060 --> 00:07:38,520 It is located in southeastern Siberia near the Mongolian border. 152 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,020 Oh, now the thing about lake bike hall is that it's not just the deepest lake. 153 00:07:43,020 --> 00:07:48,960 It's also one of the oldest with a history spanning over 25 million years, holding nearly 154 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,480 a quarter of the earth's fresh water. 155 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:52,480 Oh shit. 156 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,480 Yeah. 157 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,160 It's, it's the world's deepest and oldest lake. 158 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,380 See now I want to go to it. 159 00:07:56,380 --> 00:08:00,120 This makes me actually like before I was kidding, but now I do kind of want to see it. 160 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,120 It's pretty sick. 161 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,760 It plunges to depths of over 5,000 feet and harbors numerous unique species that are found 162 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,200 nowhere else in the world. 163 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,880 It's pretty much like the Russian version of like Galapagos, if that makes sense. 164 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,320 How there's only this specific species. 165 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:14,320 Yeah. 166 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,320 Yeah. 167 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,520 Uh, some of these creatures include the bike hall Nerpa seal. 168 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:23,120 It's the only freshwater seal species in the world and it remains a biological mystery. 169 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,680 Like no one knows even know how they fucking got there. 170 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,000 Because Siberia is pretty landlocked. 171 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,600 It's in the middle of fucking note. 172 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:30,600 You know what I mean? 173 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,600 Yeah. 174 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:32,600 Yeah. 175 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,600 Well, I mean, Russia is kind of famously doesn't have many ports. 176 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:36,600 Yeah. 177 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:43,200 Uh, uh, the lake is also home to, uh, the bizarre go, go llama, go llama, Yonka fish. 178 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,440 I think I pronounced that right. 179 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,440 I don't know. 180 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,800 Uh, it's, it's a nightmare. 181 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:53,480 It's a, it's a translucent translucent scaleless species composed mostly of fat. 182 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:59,040 Uh, and there's also the legendary bike hall sturgeon, which grows to enormous sizes. 183 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,520 Uh, I was like, one of those things where like, it's been untouched by humanity and 184 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:04,520 it's so big. 185 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:05,520 It's like a goldfish basically. 186 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,080 The sturgeons just grow to it. 187 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,520 It doesn't have any predators and it's in a giant lake. 188 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,520 Yeah. 189 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,840 Uh, and this may also have, uh, inspired local myths of lake monsters. 190 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:21,160 But anyways, beyond like the ecological significance lake bike hall has, has long been the epicenter 191 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:26,640 of eerie unexplainable phenomena, strange lights in the sky, unidentified submerged 192 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:32,720 objects, usos if you're nasty and rumors of hidden extraterrestrial bases underneath 193 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:37,440 its frigid waters have made it a hotspot for conspiracy theorists and UFO enthusiasts. 194 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:43,880 So like, uh, some locals even speak of the sued con a so-called quote unquote water dragon 195 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:50,280 master said to lurk in the depths is basically they described it as a sturgeon with a. 196 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,680 Uh, like a, like a crocodile mouth and like an armored plate on it, but it could just 197 00:09:55,680 --> 00:09:58,200 be because I prefer water dragon master. 198 00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,840 I think has the best name for it. 199 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,840 That's what it like. 200 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:01,840 I think that's what that translates to. 201 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,320 I don't know why I wrote a so-called it's just, that's such a great name. 202 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:07,320 Yeah. 203 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,280 It's just a, it's just a big old fish. 204 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:17,360 Um, but you know, uh, but one of the most baffling encounters again, cause I don't know 205 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,280 how to really just like say what it is to come at a lake bike hall. 206 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,000 It's not just big fish. 207 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,520 Uh, it's a story that sounds like something out of like a science fiction horror film. 208 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:34,400 And then it is the encounter between Soviet military divers and the lake bike hall swimmers. 209 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:35,400 Are you familiar at all? 210 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,400 I'm going to assume no. 211 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,400 Yes. 212 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:43,760 Don't know about actually, no, I am familiar with this and I absolutely fell in love with 213 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,180 this story. 214 00:10:45,180 --> 00:10:49,520 So I'm glad you're covering it because there's no way I would have remembered lake bike hall 215 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:50,720 as we can tell. 216 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:51,720 Yeah. 217 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,600 But I remember reading about the story and being fascinated with it. 218 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:56,600 Yeah. 219 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,640 So the story goes that in 1982 during the height of the cold war, the Soviet military 220 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,320 was conducting routine training exercises in the lake. 221 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,920 Now the divers were accustomed to tough conditions as I feel like most Russians usually are. 222 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,040 Cause I, yeah, they're not a hospitable country for sure. 223 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,320 Like they just waking up is a miracle. 224 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,320 Yeah. 225 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,000 And I feel like their military is, I'm not going to say better than ours, but they're 226 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,000 definitely tougher. 227 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:25,440 I feel like in a sense, they're tougher because their greatest weapon is the winter time. 228 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,920 That is how they'd repelled Napoleon and Hitler. 229 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,920 Yeah. 230 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,320 It's basically like they can fight anywhere at all times and they do not give a fuck. 231 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,440 They're also just fucking all fucked up on crocodile and vodka. 232 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,080 Like they're like super sold. 233 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,600 The winter soldier is a, is Russian. 234 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:48,160 When you're resourceful enough to turn potatoes into alcohol, you can accomplish great things. 235 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,160 I'll agree with that. 236 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,160 Yeah. 237 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,240 So they're, they're, they're accustomed to tough conditions, freezing water, complete 238 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,560 darkness and again, like the lake, the lake is so deep that if anyone was on train that 239 00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:01,520 was going to dive into it, they'd be crushed in seconds. 240 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:02,520 If they were, you know what I mean? 241 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,440 Like if they weren't like prepared or like acclimated to it as a, as somebody who is 242 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:14,040 an aficionado of diving disaster videos, I can, there's something wrong with me, honestly, 243 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:18,600 because every time I talk about one of my interests, it's like, so this is another way 244 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:19,600 you can die. 245 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,840 Well, once you say it out loud is when you're like, wow, this is, yeah, that's when you're 246 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,000 like, oh, I do have some sick fucking interests. 247 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:33,880 But yeah, you have to have special, special tanks because you, you have to raise levels 248 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,280 of other gases in order to not get nitrogen. 249 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,280 You don't get the back. 250 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,280 Intoxication. 251 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:45,680 Well, not only that, but if you don't, if you have too much nitrogen, you actually almost 252 00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:50,640 get drunk and then you, you do shit, like take your rebreather out of your mouth and 253 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,360 try to breathe water. 254 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:53,960 So it just. 255 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,280 So what you're saying is that I shouldn't do a bunch of whippets and then just go deep 256 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,280 sea diving. 257 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,280 Exactly. 258 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:01,280 Yeah. 259 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,280 You should avoid that. 260 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,280 You should avoid it. 261 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:04,280 You should avoid Valentine's day plans. 262 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:09,520 And honestly, the worst thing about diving is that everybody's body is different. 263 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:14,280 So what, what might mess you up, may not mess me up. 264 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,640 That's not true. 265 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,360 God made us all in his image. 266 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,080 We were all, God doesn't make mistakes. 267 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,080 Exactly. 268 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,560 God don't make mistakes. 269 00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:24,560 Except for llamas. 270 00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:25,560 That was a mistake. 271 00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:26,560 Whoa. 272 00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:27,560 All right. 273 00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:30,560 We'll touch back on that later on. 274 00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:34,520 Okay, the platypus though, we can all agree was an error. 275 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,520 Yeah. 276 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:36,520 That was a nightmare. 277 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,520 Or you're just having fun. 278 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:38,520 You just have fun with it. 279 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,520 But anyways, but it's a duck beaver. 280 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:40,520 It's fine. 281 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,920 But even though the Russians are very tough, I'm sure their bootcamp is bananas. 282 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,440 It's like, oh yeah, like nothing straight up torture. 283 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:48,440 Yeah. 284 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,280 Like nothing in their training could have prepared them for what was about to happen 285 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,280 to them. 286 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:57,840 So at a depth of about 164 feet, one of the divers noticed something moving in the distance. 287 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:03,240 At first he assumed it was a large fish, perhaps one of the fucking giant sturgeons. 288 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:04,240 I don't know. 289 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:11,520 But, but as the shape became clear, he realized it was something way worse. 290 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:12,520 It was humanoid. 291 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,160 It was humanoid nature. 292 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:20,240 Now before he could react, more of them emerged from the gloom, not just one, but several 293 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,700 swimming with impossible speed and grace, their long limbs cutting effortlessly through 294 00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:25,700 the icy depths. 295 00:14:25,700 --> 00:14:26,700 Okay. 296 00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:30,080 I was going to say maybe it's just Vladimir Putin going for a swim. 297 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,760 No, but that tracks, it was more of them. 298 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:34,760 There's more than one. 299 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,680 Now the diver obviously kind of like fuck is going on. 300 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:45,000 He signaled to his comrades and they all turned to witness what can only be described as like 301 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,480 the impossible. 302 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:54,400 Now what they saw there was it was were towering 10 foot tall beings wearing metallic silver 303 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,860 body suits. 304 00:14:55,860 --> 00:14:58,400 Their faces obscured by clear domed helmets. 305 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:04,440 There was no oxygen tanks, no visible breathing apparatus, just cold alien precision in their 306 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:05,440 movements. 307 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,980 For a moment, both sides simply just stared at each other. 308 00:15:08,980 --> 00:15:11,440 The divers were frozen in fear and shock. 309 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:17,320 The humanoid seemingly just unbothered by the presence of heavily armed Soviet militia. 310 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,960 They were just whatever. 311 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:24,480 Then without warning, the beings turned and darted deeper into the lake, vanishing into 312 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:25,600 the abyss. 313 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:30,600 Now at this point they're like, we need to tell the top brass, we need to get out of 314 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920 here and let someone know what's going on. 315 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,800 So when the shaken divers finally surfaced, they were immediately debriefed by their commanding 316 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:38,800 officer. 317 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:44,760 Now, given the bizarre nature of what they reported, their superiors, they faced a dilemma. 318 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:49,520 Was this like an elaborate hoax where these guys who went into the water like, it's too 319 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,720 cold, it's too dark, we don't want to do this anymore. 320 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,080 So they made up a story. 321 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,620 Was it a shared hallucination? 322 00:15:54,620 --> 00:15:57,960 Maybe what you said, maybe they had too much nitrogen or whatever in their blood and they 323 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:58,960 were fucking hammered. 324 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,600 And they were like, you see all this shit? 325 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,600 Maybe it was one of the seals. 326 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,960 Yuri, level with me. 327 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,320 Were you drinking vodka before you went in the water? 328 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,040 Well, I'm not going to lie. 329 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,280 I know you're doing a bit, but I feel like that's probably custom. 330 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,280 Like I feel like. 331 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,280 Yeah, probably. 332 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:20,000 Now that I say that out loud, that is more than likely just a normal state of being. 333 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,160 Yeah, like you may not return. 334 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,160 Have a shot. 335 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:29,520 I will miss you if you die, but I will take all of your vodka. 336 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,200 And your wives and bears. 337 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,200 Yeah. 338 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,360 That line from Rocky IV, if he dies, he dies. 339 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,280 That's just like a common saying in Russia. 340 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:43,000 Yeah, that's like, it's like how, what is, was Aloha means hello and goodbye or something 341 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:48,000 like that. 342 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,920 That's actually how they say hello and goodbye. 343 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,000 If you die, you die. 344 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,000 Real quick. 345 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,440 I don't know why, but whenever I talk at a Russian accent, the two things I like to say 346 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,800 the most are baseballs and the American blue jeans. 347 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,000 I don't know. 348 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,000 I don't know what's popular exports during Soviet era Russia. 349 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,000 Yeah. 350 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Just did you bring us miss balls or what about the American blue jeans, American blue jeans, 351 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,000 Livy's? 352 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,000 Come on. 353 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,680 We're offending every Russian that has ever been a part of this show. 354 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:25,960 I don't care. 355 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,400 American blue jeans is the funniest thing to say in Russian. 356 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,960 It's so good. 357 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:40,040 You'll go to Gulag for winning American blue jeans. 358 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:45,760 Soviet denim much more. 359 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,600 Soviet denim is just regular denim wrapped in barbed wire. 360 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,880 Let's stop shitting on maybe a potential listening base here. 361 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,120 Are we at war? 362 00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:57,960 No, no, they're at war with somebody else. 363 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:58,960 I forgot. 364 00:17:58,960 --> 00:17:59,960 Not yet. 365 00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:00,960 All right. 366 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:01,960 Where was I? 367 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:02,960 Oh yeah. 368 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,120 So it was either an elaborate hoax, a shared hallucination, or maybe they just encountered 369 00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:07,400 something not of this world. 370 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:13,360 So rather than dismiss the claims, military officials decided to take action. 371 00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:16,560 Russian divers were ordered to return to the depths of the new objective. 372 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:21,680 That is capture one of these human humanoid beings alive if possible. 373 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,380 There is nothing more human than, oh shit, that's weird and scary. 374 00:18:25,380 --> 00:18:26,440 Let's capture it. 375 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,200 At least this time I will give to the Russians. 376 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,600 They said alive if possible. 377 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:35,120 Most, if it was America, they would in America, they would first we'll figure it out. 378 00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:36,120 Yeah. 379 00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:37,120 That's exactly how we would do it here. 380 00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:41,280 So props to them for at least that. 381 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,560 Now descending back into the lake, the team moved with caution. 382 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,120 Their oxygen tanks hissed in the silent frigid water. 383 00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:51,840 The deeper they went, the more their surroundings faded into darkness. 384 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,320 Then see I had to burp. 385 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,080 Nothing burps like Narragansett. 386 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,820 Then as if waiting for them, the humanoids reappeared. 387 00:19:00,820 --> 00:19:05,320 This time the divers had a plan, a concept of a plan. 388 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,320 It was very Looney Tunes. 389 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,180 This is a very Looney Tunes plan. 390 00:19:11,180 --> 00:19:13,560 They brought an anvil and a giant rocket with them. 391 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,440 We'll figure it out when we get down there. 392 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,480 Kind of American cartoons. 393 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,480 They show us how to. 394 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,480 No, no, it was a Looney Tunes. 395 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,720 Comical mousetrap. 396 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:23,720 Bugs Bunny. 397 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:24,720 Road runner. 398 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:25,720 Like Coyote. 399 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:32,560 We tried to get him to defect, but find out he's not real. 400 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,920 We bought these from Acme Co. 401 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,040 It's not that far off. 402 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,960 So one of them carried a large net. 403 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:42,960 Oh God. 404 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:43,960 Yes. 405 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:44,960 Of course. 406 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,560 It's not cutting edge military technology, but given the circumstances, it was apparently 407 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,560 was their best option. 408 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,800 Industrial size butterfly net. 409 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,280 You just got it on a long stick. 410 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,720 I'll get you alien. 411 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:03,400 With military precision, the group moved in, but the moment they attempted to ensnare one 412 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,960 of the creatures, the atmosphere in the water, I guess the air, I was going to say the air, 413 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,240 but the water shifted. 414 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:10,240 Right. 415 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:16,220 Now the humanoids once seemingly indifferent from the first time they saw them now reacted 416 00:20:16,220 --> 00:20:17,220 with force. 417 00:20:17,220 --> 00:20:20,920 Now without touching them, without making a sound, the beings unleashed an invisible 418 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:25,280 wave of energy, a high intensity sonar blast. 419 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,440 Once these, once the soldiers were hit, the effects were immediate. 420 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,320 The divers convulsed as a shockwave tore through their bodies, their vision blurred, their 421 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:38,840 muscles locked up, then as if yanked by unseen forces, they were flung upward towards the 422 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,120 surface at an uncontrollable speed. 423 00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:47,800 Now for those of you unfamiliar with deep water diving, rapid ascent from such depths 424 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,560 is catastrophic to your body. 425 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,640 Like yeah, yeah. 426 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,760 The sudden decompression caused by being forcefully expelled from the water can lead to what is 427 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,700 commonly known as the bends. 428 00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:00,520 It literally makes your blood boil. 429 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,680 Yeah, this occurs when nitrogen bubbles form in the bloodstream due to a rapid change in 430 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:10,520 pressure leading to excruciating pain, paralysis, and in severe cases, death. 431 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,760 Now in this case, the results were tragic. 432 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:19,040 Three of the divers sustained injuries, but managed to avoid the worst effects of decompression 433 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:20,040 sickness. 434 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:25,080 However, four of them suffered extreme cases and needed immediate medical attention. 435 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,480 Luckily there was a recompression chamber in the region, but it was only designed to accommodate 436 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,440 two people at a time. 437 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,920 So faced with an impossible decision and desperate to save their comrades, the medical team attempted 438 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,200 to treat all four divers at once. 439 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,280 This proved to be a fatal mistake. 440 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:46,240 Three of the men succumbed to their injuries while the sole survivor suffered lasting physical 441 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,280 and psychological trauma. 442 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,240 How are we feeling so far, Sarge? 443 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,920 I mean, this just reconfirms that I don't want to swim underwater. 444 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,080 Ever again? 445 00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,080 Especially in Russia. 446 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:00,080 Yeah. 447 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:05,520 Well, it doesn't know like I'll go into water like, you know, a couple of feet in a swimming 448 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,440 pool, but I'm not diving anywhere. 449 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,480 Oh, no, I'll know. 450 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:15,680 Unless like if I can't see this, if I can't see the bottom or see the surface, I'm good. 451 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:16,680 Yeah, I'm done. 452 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:17,680 I don't need thanks. 453 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,680 I don't need that shit. 454 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,800 Well, like I read about re like decompression when you're coming up and you have to wait 455 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,680 and sometimes they have to wait for fucking hours in the middle of the ocean on a rope. 456 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,720 Like fuck that. 457 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,280 You know, bored you'd be. 458 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,320 Yeah, I also found that I don't know how true this is. 459 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:36,720 I was watching the show Silo. 460 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,120 I don't know if you ever watched it. 461 00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:39,120 10 out of 10. 462 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:40,120 Highly recommend it. 463 00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:45,240 If you have Apple TV, my guy, one of the best shows I've ever seen in a long time. 464 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,200 But if you started to get the bends as you're coming up, if you just go back down and chill 465 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,320 for a minute, like you said, like it kind of like repurposes everything. 466 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,320 I guess. 467 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,320 Okay. 468 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,360 But hey, that's useful advice, maybe from a TV show. 469 00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:04,800 Well, yeah, I mean the whole decompression, like the chambers that they have to put them 470 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,240 in, it's essentially doing that. 471 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:11,560 It's just re exerting the pressure on their bodies so that they don't die too quickly. 472 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:12,560 Yeah. 473 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,560 It like slows everything down so that they can actually survive. 474 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,560 So they can die slower. 475 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,560 Got it. 476 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,560 All right, cool. 477 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:25,000 It's actually that's a, I don't know if any of you, I'm not going to talk about it now, 478 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,840 but look up the bifur dolphin incident. 479 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,400 That's actually pretty fascinating. 480 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:30,400 Catastrophic recompression. 481 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,040 What did someone write a dolphin down to the depths and then fucking die? 482 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:39,800 No, it's like a diving bell and they brought it up to the surface and then somebody just 483 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:46,720 decided to open the door like a fucking idiot and everybody inside got basically liquefied. 484 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:47,720 Fuck yeah. 485 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,840 That's I mean, look it up. 486 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,000 It's crazy. 487 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,000 It's a crazy story. 488 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,000 I said, fuck yeah. 489 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,120 Like I was like, like that's tragic, but at the same time, like that's metal as fuck, 490 00:23:57,120 --> 00:23:58,120 dude. 491 00:23:58,120 --> 00:24:05,440 Like, yeah, well yeah, it's, it's pretty goddamn metal for sure, but it's also horrible death. 492 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,440 Yeah. 493 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,440 No, no. 494 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:12,320 Following this catastrophic incident, Soviet authorities reportedly shut down any further 495 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:17,800 missions to engage or capture unidentified submerged objects in Lake Baikal and any official 496 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:23,680 documentation and any official documentation of the event was classified at the highest 497 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,120 levels and those involved were sworn to secrecy. 498 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:35,480 Now one of the few public available sources, and this is true, is a 2009 Russia Today report, 499 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:41,120 RT, which briefly mentioned the encounter in the context of Soviet UFO phenomenon. 500 00:24:41,120 --> 00:24:42,120 Really? 501 00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:49,240 And a Fox News article later expanded on the story revealing that quote, military divers 502 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:55,440 encountered a group of humanoid creatures dressed in silvery suits at a depth of 160 503 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:56,960 feet, end quote. 504 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,880 And according to the report, the divers attempted to capture one of the beings resulting in 505 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,320 a violent response that led to the deaths of three crew members during the encounter. 506 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:11,280 This is a real Fox News article that you can look up and they actually reported on it. 507 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:18,720 Now, I mean that almost kind of reduces the legitimacy of the story for me. 508 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:24,000 The fact that they're reporting on an RT, which is a Russian state propaganda outlet, 509 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,160 or which one? 510 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:30,720 No, just the fact that Fox News got involved in any story, because I'm just trying to figure 511 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,880 out how they managed to blame that on DEI. 512 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:38,120 This is what happens when you include aliens in things. 513 00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:42,480 Well, if the aliens were illegal, they didn't go through the proper channels to be in that 514 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,480 lake. 515 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,480 You know they didn't. 516 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:45,480 That's true. 517 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,160 They didn't have their intergalactic passport. 518 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:54,120 They must be here in one of them H1B visas. 519 00:25:54,120 --> 00:26:00,160 No, whatever the truth may be, one thing is certain. 520 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,640 And that is that Lake Baikal remains one of the most enigmatic and mysterious places on 521 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:10,120 earth and perhaps lurking in its frigid depths, the answer to one of humanity's greatest questions, 522 00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:11,120 are we alone? 523 00:26:11,120 --> 00:26:13,720 Awaits discovery. 524 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,640 That is the story of the Baikal swimmers. 525 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,480 It wasn't like a crazy story. 526 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,400 I just thought it was a story that's not very well known. 527 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,160 I think it's an amazing story. 528 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,160 That's really fascinating. 529 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,240 I didn't know that RT had reported on it. 530 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,360 I had read it on some, you know. 531 00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:28,360 Yeah. 532 00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:34,040 Well, so the RT act, like their report, like their thing, I can't find anywhere, but I 533 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:39,360 can find, I found the article that Fox News reported on the RT thing. 534 00:26:39,360 --> 00:26:43,080 So I don't know if like RT like got rid of it or something like that. 535 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,560 Yeah, it's possible. 536 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,520 I mean, Russia has never exactly been transparent when they have weird shit go down. 537 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:49,520 Yeah. 538 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,560 They're also not very reliable source of fact full information. 539 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,400 I feel like for the most part. 540 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,560 Yeah, but this doesn't exactly make them look good. 541 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:01,480 So I kind of feel like there's a little bit more legitimacy because normally, you know, 542 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:06,440 if it doesn't involve them doing superhuman feats of strength to save the Republic, then 543 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:07,640 they're not going to talk about it. 544 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:08,640 You know, that's true. 545 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:09,640 Yeah, I don't know. 546 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,800 I don't, I don't know the legitimacy of the story. 547 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:12,880 It's a cool story. 548 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:13,880 It's fun. 549 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,320 I heard about it on the first time I heard about it was a few years ago on ancient aliens. 550 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,160 It was like a very like passing thing. 551 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,640 And I think like Nick Pope or whoever that guy is was talking about it. 552 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,820 And I don't know why, but I fucking hate that guy. 553 00:27:26,820 --> 00:27:30,720 He seems like a genuine dude when he talks about stuff, but he has a weird rat face and 554 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:35,600 I fucking hate him for it. 555 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,400 Isn't Nick Pope the British guy who was in charge of project blue book? 556 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,400 Probably dude. 557 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:41,400 I don't know. 558 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:42,400 Whatever the British version of it was. 559 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,080 I genuinely have not looked into him because ever since the first time I saw him on ancient 560 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,200 aliens, it's like that dude's a fucking grifter. 561 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,200 Fuck that guy. 562 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,640 No basis for that accusation whatsoever. 563 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,120 I just mean now I need to look his face up. 564 00:27:57,120 --> 00:28:00,280 He looks like a, but I'm pretty sure Nick Pope is the guy. 565 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,280 It probably is. 566 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:06,240 I just, I can't stand who he would just can't stand them. 567 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,240 Yeah. 568 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,240 Yeah. 569 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,240 He was, he was there. 570 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,240 UFO guy. 571 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:11,240 Yeah. 572 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:12,240 But he has a rat face and I can't handle him. 573 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,600 I know it was, I know I shouldn't body shame this man because he probably is very smart. 574 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:24,000 He's probably very knowledgeable, but it's like fucking ratatouille and I can't, you 575 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,680 know what Nick, I hate your face. 576 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,440 So everything you're saying sucks. 577 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:28,440 Shut up. 578 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:29,440 Right? 579 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,320 This is why we have more attractive people in the UFO community. 580 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,520 I believe a beautiful person over fucking Nick Pope. 581 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,560 That might also be why I never take anything that Elon Musk says seriously. 582 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,960 Cause he looks like a cartoon character. 583 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:42,960 Yeah. 584 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,240 But also maybe that's why I agree with everything. 585 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,000 Georgio Asoukalis says, you ever seen that dude? 586 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,080 He's fucking jacked as fuck. 587 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,080 He's ripped. 588 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,880 His hair though worries me sometimes. 589 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,080 I don't know why it's so big. 590 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:58,700 I think, I think he, he, I bet he would have changed his hairstyle if everyone, if it didn't 591 00:28:58,700 --> 00:28:59,800 become like his signature thing. 592 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:00,800 You know what I mean? 593 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:01,800 Yeah. 594 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:02,800 Yeah. 595 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,160 He's probably embracing the mad scientist look. 596 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:05,160 Yeah. 597 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,160 That's fine. 598 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,160 And that's fair. 599 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:08,160 Yeah. 600 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,160 I let him carry me like a baby. 601 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,160 If given the chance, it's fine. 602 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:11,160 Oh yeah. 603 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,160 Me too. 604 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:13,160 Hold me in your arms. 605 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,160 Tighter, closer. 606 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,160 Let me know you love me. 607 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,160 All right. 608 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,160 So yeah. 609 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,160 So that's today's episode. 610 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,160 Not saying it's aliens, but it's aliens. 611 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,160 So yeah. 612 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,160 So that's today's episode. 613 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,160 Not anything crazy. 614 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:30,600 I just thought it was a really fun story and I promised two years ago that I was going 615 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,400 to do a full episode on it. 616 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:33,400 And here we are. 617 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,400 We did it. 618 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:35,400 We did a full episode. 619 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:36,400 I'm going to say these are underwater yetis. 620 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:37,400 That's going to be my belief. 621 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,400 Is that what it is? 622 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,400 Underwater yetis? 623 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:40,400 They're 10 feet tall. 624 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:41,400 I mean, yeah. 625 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:42,400 The yetis are supposed to be big, aren't they? 626 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:43,400 I guess. 627 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:44,400 I don't know if they're 10 feet tall. 628 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:50,800 And maybe they get bigger cause they're in low depths, you know, they're, they're, and 629 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,520 so the pressure stretched them out. 630 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,580 Or maybe it's like, again, it's the goldfish thing. 631 00:29:54,580 --> 00:29:56,000 They just grow to whatever. 632 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,000 Yeah. 633 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,000 They've got no natural predators. 634 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,000 Yeah. 635 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,000 Except for those fucking. 636 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:06,000 They're only natural predators, a Soviet with a net. 637 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,540 Such a wily coyote way to go about doing anything. 638 00:30:09,540 --> 00:30:11,760 Just amazing. 639 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,840 It's so good. 640 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:22,000 I hope this is true just because of how hilarious it is to imagine like a bunch of divers being 641 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:27,040 jettisoned out of the water, like flying up in the air and then just belly flopping. 642 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,760 Dude, could you imagine how fucking scary that would be? 643 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:32,760 Like, oh God. 644 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:33,760 Yeah. 645 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:40,200 I'm not doubting that it's terrifying, but seeing it from my vantage point here in 2025, 646 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,200 it is kind of hilarious to imagine. 647 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,680 I mean, I bet it'd be fucking funny to see, like, I mean, I get, if you were on shore 648 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,960 and it happened in the moment, you're like, what the fuck was that? 649 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:57,040 But years later, you're probably like fucking flat, hit that water so fucking hard, dude. 650 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,040 Oh man. 651 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,880 I'm so sorry he died because of decompression sickness. 652 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,880 That was hilarious. 653 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:09,920 You know, tragedy over time equals comedy. 654 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,960 So exactly it is what it is. 655 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:12,960 All right. 656 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:13,960 Sorry. 657 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,520 Is there anything you want to plug before we sign off? 658 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,640 I got a few things that I want to say afterwards. 659 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:18,640 So yeah. 660 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,600 Get the coloring book, SagesSuperNormal.com. 661 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,120 $9.99. 662 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,160 It's probably worth it. 663 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,320 And that's it. 664 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:29,320 Yeah. 665 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:30,320 Get the coloring book. 666 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,320 Hell yeah. 667 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,680 I got two shout outs I want to give. 668

shop. 670 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,400 So I hope he hears this in his shop while everyone is around him and he's listening 671 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,400 to it. 672 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:49,400

00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:25,840 I don't know. 691 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,520 You know, it's like for me, it sounds like party metal. 692 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,920 Like it's just a good time all
