00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:15,640
Hello everybody and welcome to the Paranormal Minds of JST.

2
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:21,720
My name is Tommy and I am joined by my co-host Josh and Shane.

3
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:29,480
Today we are going to be talking about the mystery of the Flannan Isles Lighthouse.

4
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:38,200
In 1900 the lighthouse was being manned by two people and then a backup essentially.

5
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:47,400
They were all on the islands. The men's names were James Ducat, Thomas Marshall, and Donald MacArthur.

6
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,880
They had a rotating fourth man who pretty much spent time on the shore.

7
00:00:51,880 --> 00:01:04,360
Around December 18th of 1900, well it was actually the 15th of December, a steamer coming from Pennsylvania

8
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,920
noted that the lighthouse light was not working in bad weather.

9
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:19,600
They took note of it. When they got to the nearest port they showed them like hey you know we noted that this lighthouse light wasn't working and was bad foggy weather.

10
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,440
That was on the 18th, so like three days later.

11
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:28,840
Well when they went to go look at it, it was a bunch of bad weather so they couldn't go look at it.

12
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:34,400
They had to wait until the 20th. Well they were going to go on the 20th. They waited until the 26th, my bad.

13
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:40,160
When they got there, just a couple of people went on shore and they found that they couldn't find anybody.

14
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,800
They found that the flag staff had no flag.

15
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:49,600
All the usual provision boxes had been left on the landing stage for restocking and more ominous.

16
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,760
None of the lighthouse keepers were there to welcome them ashore.

17
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:59,600
They attempted to reach them by blowing the ship's whistle, firing a flare, but it was unsuccessful.

18
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:08,080
They sent the relief keeper, who was Joseph Moore, to on shore to see if he can't find them, you know, see what happened.

19
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,280
They found the entrance gate to the compound and the main door both closed.

20
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,680
The beds unmade and the clock stopped.

21
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:22,880
Returning to the landing stage with his grim news, he then went back to the lighthouse with one of the second mates from the ship.

22
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,240
Further search revealed that the lamps had been cleaned and refilled.

23
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:32,640
A set of oil skins was found, suggesting that one of the keepers had left the lighthouse without them.

24
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:38,400
There was no sign of any of the keepers neither inside the lighthouse nor anywhere on the island.

25
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:45,040
They scoured the place, topping down and couldn't find anything, so they just up and vanished.

26
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,440
There is a speculation, but some people say it's false.

27
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:58,240
There was a journal said to have been found and in it they believe that Marshall said that on the 12th of December that there were severe winds,

28
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:03,200
the likes of which have never been seen or he has never seen in 20 years.

29
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:11,680
He also is said to have reported that Duquesne had been very quiet and Donald MacArthur had been crying.

30
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:19,680
MacArthur was a veteran mariner with a reputation of brawling and thus it would be strange for him to be crying in response to a storm.

31
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:27,680
Log entries on the 13th of December were said to have stated that the storm was still raging and that all three men had been praying.

32
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:35,280
This was also puzzling as the three men were experienced lighthouse keepers who knew they were in a secure structure.

33
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,360
As far as they know they just up and vanished.

34
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,840
They were sick of that job, that's all it was.

35
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,360
I'd have got up and left too.

36
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:48,800
Now you know what it really is, I see here that Duquesne and MacArthur were both married with children, that's why they took off.

37
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,600
They just got tired of the kids.

38
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,200
Yeah, fuck those kids.

39
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,320
They kind of had four of them, man, I can't imagine.

40
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,320
Geez.

41
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:05,600
He's competing with me over here.

42
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:11,440
I don't know, some people are saying they believe that they were trying to load something with a crane.

43
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,840
All three of them just fell into water and drowned.

44
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,320
Yeah, because it wasn't supposed to be bad storms not too long before the other people showed up.

45
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:24,000
Yeah, like six days before, they had to change their plans to go out there because of storms.

46
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,240
And there's no log like we did this this day, we put fuel in this day like nothing.

47
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,000
I think they found a log but I don't think anybody said anything about it.

48
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,840
Because apparently this journal and this log book, okay, so it was their log book but people were like,

49
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:44,800
oh, there's just a bunch of unusual log book entries that say all of this.

50
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,280
So and apparently that's been determined like those are made up, they're just fictional.

51
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:52,320
But it doesn't say anything else like what was in the log book.

52
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,280
The journal was fictional. Is that what you were saying?

53
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:59,600
Essentially, yeah, it was fictional. Some people say it was log book, some people say a journal.

54
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,760
But according to this, it's the log book.

55
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,560
I blame Shane.

56
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,960
Yep, I can't turn down sexy lighthouse men.

57
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,040
I understand, I understand completely.

58
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:14,960
And reason, 4,397, why we haven't started this.

59
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:18,400
I don't know, I could have been aliens.

60
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,440
Look, it was aliens in the last one, we can't go around that route this time.

61
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:21,940
Yeah.

62
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,360
Listen to alien mermaids if I remember.

63
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,880
See, look, they're everywhere, man.

64
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,880
I'm starting to notice a pattern here with your sea bound antics.

65
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,200
Look, I think you just want mermaid aliens to be real.

66
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,840
Deny that I might want that.

67
00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:47,440
I mean, you could go the Christopher Columbus route just gets you a manatee.

68
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,120
Oh, man.

69
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:51,600
God.

70
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:54,880
Lay on me baby.

71
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,840
I'm thinking like the mermaid's in hook, okay.

72
00:05:57,840 --> 00:05:59,920
But anyways, I don't know.

73
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,160
I mean, there's there's a what if it was pirates?

74
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,440
Maybe but when they have taken what goods were there?

75
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:11,520
There's no mention of like a lifeboat or anything or another type of boat from my understanding,

76
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,600
I guess they were just shipped over to them over to the island,

77
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,600
dropped off left there for however long that they were supposed to be there.

78
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,120
How long were they supposed to be there?

79
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:27,040
I think they had a rotation of a week, maybe two.

80
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,200
I saw I've heard this story before.

81
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:30,800
Shane, what do you think?

82
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,680
I'm sure I'm reading, pulling up a few different articles,

83
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,920
just trying to get a feel for these guys.

84
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:38,320
I don't know.

85
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,520
I see a picture of them.

86
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,680
They look like some tough dudes to be honest.

87
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,960
Like I don't, I guess a whole crew of pirates could have taken them,

88
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,560
but it would have been a struggle.

89
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:47,920
Yeah.

90
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,800
This one dude, Thomas Marshall is like eight foot tall.

91
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,400
I mean, I'm basing that on nothing except.

92
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,000
Just saw a picture and was like, yeah, he looks eight foot tall.

93
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:08,480
And they all have those very pronounced mustaches, just mustaches, no beards.

94
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,320
Well, it was 1900s, you know.

95
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:10,720
Yeah.

96
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:10,960
Yeah.

97
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,040
Were they the only three that went missing?

98
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,120
Yeah, so far.

99
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,120
I don't see anything else as far as people missing.

100
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,160
What if it's all just a tale to a story to tell?

101
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,160
That's a huge possibility.

102
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,840
You know, things like that become real after a while, you know.

103
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,680
Yeah.

104
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,800
So clocks, I see, you know, or I think you mentioned earlier about the clocks on the walls

105
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:37,360
not working.

106
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,640
Now this is before like batteries, right?

107
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,640
These would have been like wind up clocks.

108
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,520
Yeah, I'm guessing like, you know, like those old, I don't want to say grandfather,

109
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,200
but grandfather style.

110
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:49,840
All right.

111
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,160
Where you had to swing the pendulum every now and then, you know, keep it wind up.

112
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,440
I'm guessing that's what it is.

113
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:56,480
Okay.

114
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,920
So it could have just timed out like no one wound it in a few days.

115
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,080
Yeah, I don't know how long do they pendulum clocks so much?

116
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,520
How long do they normally last?

117
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,840
They have to be wound up every day, I think, don't they?

118
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:08,880
Or at least then I thought.

119
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,320
Yeah, I do not have any clock knowledge.

120
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,880
I felt you wound them and they lasted for 100 years.

121
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:18,480
I can't say nothing.

122
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,600
I used to think that too.

123
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,440
But I just, I really thought it was like, you know, you wind a clock once a day.

124
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:28,000
Most clocks are set to run every eight days.

125
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,560
Oh, so there's really no way to tell when it stopped though.

126
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:36,960
I mean, did it stop like the day before they got there?

127
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:42,400
Well, how if we can figure out rotations, maybe that'll give us some kind of idea,

128
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,600
you know, roughly, maybe the, maybe the fresh crew has to always rotate the clock, you know.

129
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:49,040
Okay.

130
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,640
So even if we can explain the clock though, the chairs in the kitchen were flipped upside down.

131
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:59,120
So why, so if they just didn't wind the clock, why would they flip their chairs upside down?

132
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,240
Yeah, that to me screams like either somebody came in that they didn't know was coming

133
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,200
or it was like, let me get the hell out of here.

134
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,440
Something's happening outside.

135
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,840
Now there was a mystery that happened.

136
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:15,600
It was in Canada.

137
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:21,840
I believe it was Canada where three guys went like, they went up through the woods

138
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,800
and they were supposed to take care of this house and do some hunting.

139
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,560
And they were supposed to take care of these foxes.

140
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,040
Well, after about like two weeks or so, like nobody heard from them,

141
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,320
went to go find them.

142
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,280
The food was prepared and stuff like that.

143
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,480
Like the food was moldy.

144
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,760
It was left out all the stuff.

145
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,800
The foxes were dead that they were supposed to take care of.

146
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,240
Just do that like pet foxes.

147
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,800
That means they were, they were gone for a while.

148
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,360
Yeah.

149
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:46,960
Like they, they died of starvation.

150
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:47,680
I think it was.

151
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,720
They found, I think it was two of the bodies or all three of them,

152
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:58,240
but all of them had blunt force trauma to the head or one did.

153
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,520
I heard it on one of those YouTube mystery channels.

154
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,520
One of the guys went batshit and saying or something and killed the other ones.

155
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,440
Maybe that's what happened.

156
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,000
Yeah, maybe.

157
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,680
So this says that December 15th was things were not right.

158
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:16,080
I'm assuming that's going to be the last log for these people.

159
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:22,560
They on the 26th, the crew and onshore relief keeper finally reached the lighthouse.

160
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,840
But that clashes with the 18th.

161
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,920
Maybe he didn't actually get on land.

162
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,520
The, the guy that found it three days after the 15th on the 18th.

163
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,560
I don't think he actually got off the boat.

164
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:40,000
From under like that was a ship that saw it on the 15th.

165
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:40,640
They were coming.

166
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:46,160
They were approaching by on their way and from Philadelphia to Leith.

167
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:53,040
Well, this is, yeah, this is the log on the 15th from the, from the streamer,

168
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,800
I guess, blasting the islands.

169
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:55,120
Yeah.

170
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:55,760
Yeah, we were right.

171
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,240
You're right.

172
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,120
Okay.

173
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:03,920
So I'm curious about the fact that the eight days, well, maybe the clock stopped on that day.

174
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:04,320
Spooky.

175
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,720
Maybe they pissed off a water spirit around Scotland.

176
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,280
There's a lot of spirits that deal with water in Gaelic war.

177
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:15,840
Maybe they did.

178
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:21,040
Is there any history on the actual islands where it was built?

179
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:27,120
Because for this to happen just one year after they built the lighthouse is also a little strange.

180
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:27,760
That is.

181
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:28,720
I didn't think about that.

182
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,800
Maybe there was something already on on the island that didn't want them there.

183
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:35,120
Maybe.

184
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,640
There's an each year.

185
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:40,960
Year change.

186
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,920
It's a literally translates to water horse.

187
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,320
It's a water spirit in Scotland.

188
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:51,280
Folk Ward known in Ireland at Shevel Ostrich.

189
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:51,680
True.

190
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,800
In the Isle of Man, on the Isle of Man.

191
00:11:54,800 --> 00:12:01,280
It usually takes the form of a horse and is similar to the Kelpie, but is far more vicious.

192
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,400
I mean, if we want to go that route, they were killed by a water horse.

193
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:09,440
It shows a picture if you go to the Wikipedia page or I'm standing up on two ways.

194
00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:12,320
Is it part of the Lewis Isles?

195
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:12,960
Is that what that is?

196
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:13,460
Yeah.

197
00:12:13,460 --> 00:12:13,960
Yeah.

198
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:14,560
Yeah.

199
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:14,960
Yeah.

200
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:15,460
Yeah.

201
00:12:15,460 --> 00:12:15,780
Yeah.

202
00:12:15,780 --> 00:12:17,700
West of the Isle of Lewis.

203
00:12:17,700 --> 00:12:19,860
Named from St. Flannan.

204
00:12:19,860 --> 00:12:22,020
He was an Irish preacher.

205
00:12:22,020 --> 00:12:23,460
Maybe he did something.

206
00:12:23,460 --> 00:12:25,700
He just tainted the whole land.

207
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:30,660
Hey, this this Flannan dude, his feast day, you know, the saints have their feast days.

208
00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:32,500
His feast day is December 18th.

209
00:12:33,300 --> 00:12:33,700
Really?

210
00:12:34,500 --> 00:12:35,000
Yeah.

211
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:35,560
Hmm.

212
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:37,780
He was a cannibal.

213
00:12:39,620 --> 00:12:41,060
That is, that is, that is weird.

214
00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:43,700
Is that one of the conspiracies?

215
00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:45,460
I think we might be on to something.

216
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:46,500
Cannibal group.

217
00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:51,140
All I can say is that island's like dead in the middle of nowhere.

218
00:12:51,140 --> 00:12:52,100
I didn't even look it up.

219
00:12:52,660 --> 00:12:54,900
Like, you know how you think of a lighthouse just being,

220
00:12:55,540 --> 00:12:58,260
uh, like close to like a shoreline or something?

221
00:12:58,260 --> 00:13:02,180
You know, this sucker's like on an island in the middle of the ocean.

222
00:13:02,180 --> 00:13:03,140
Oh, it's out there too.

223
00:13:03,140 --> 00:13:03,540
What is that?

224
00:13:03,540 --> 00:13:06,900
That's a good, that's that says, what 60 miles?

225
00:13:07,540 --> 00:13:08,900
That is out there.

226
00:13:08,900 --> 00:13:10,740
I mean, that that's far enough away.

227
00:13:10,740 --> 00:13:13,540
I would say that what if there was bad weather?

228
00:13:13,540 --> 00:13:19,460
Like just over that island and none of it hit the main land, you know?

229
00:13:20,020 --> 00:13:22,740
Not a far stretch being that far apart.

230
00:13:22,740 --> 00:13:23,060
Yeah.

231
00:13:23,060 --> 00:13:26,740
I mean, you look at it, you can get bad weather down where you're at and we just

232
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:28,340
like, oh, it's nice and sunny up here.

233
00:13:29,860 --> 00:13:36,900
You know, and in 1900, I don't think they had like the sophisticated weather that we had

234
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:39,460
or weather radar stuff that we have now.

235
00:13:39,460 --> 00:13:41,380
So I wouldn't think so.

236
00:13:41,380 --> 00:13:44,420
That could be the possibility, like hit by some crazy shit.

237
00:13:45,220 --> 00:13:46,020
Well, that's no fun.

238
00:13:46,660 --> 00:13:49,060
What, that they got hit by some like bad weather?

239
00:13:49,060 --> 00:13:50,100
Yeah, just a storm.

240
00:13:50,100 --> 00:13:54,580
I was hoping, you know, we'd uncover that they were ripped apart by the wildlife or something.

241
00:13:54,580 --> 00:13:54,900
Yeah.

242
00:13:55,780 --> 00:13:56,180
I don't know.

243
00:13:56,180 --> 00:14:00,500
I kind of, I kind of like the cannibalistic priest idea.

244
00:14:03,140 --> 00:14:06,980
I mean, famine, there was a lot of that going on, you know, you never know.

245
00:14:06,980 --> 00:14:10,740
Well, how long, how long has the had the priest been dead?

246
00:14:10,740 --> 00:14:11,780
Hey, let's see.

247
00:14:11,780 --> 00:14:13,060
Saint Flannan.

248
00:14:14,500 --> 00:14:14,900
Born.

249
00:14:17,220 --> 00:14:21,300
I don't have a real, okay, died seventh to eighth century.

250
00:14:21,300 --> 00:14:22,740
That's pretty vague.

251
00:14:22,740 --> 00:14:24,740
Yeah, his ghost totally came back and ate him.

252
00:14:27,220 --> 00:14:28,500
This is my island.

253
00:14:29,140 --> 00:14:33,620
Oh shit, but he's from a place called Munster, kingdom of Munster.

254
00:14:34,340 --> 00:14:36,260
I've never, I've never heard of that.

255
00:14:36,260 --> 00:14:37,380
Where is this?

256
00:14:37,380 --> 00:14:39,620
It's it's in Ireland, the bottom part of Ireland.

257
00:14:39,620 --> 00:14:44,100
Oh, so it's not like, you know, monsters.

258
00:14:44,900 --> 00:14:47,780
No, it's, it's like it's pronounced like the cheese.

259
00:14:47,780 --> 00:14:48,820
Transylvania.

260
00:14:50,580 --> 00:14:53,620
Like Moester cheese, it's Moester.

261
00:14:53,620 --> 00:14:55,460
Like there's something called Munster cheese.

262
00:14:55,460 --> 00:14:56,820
I've never heard of that.

263
00:14:56,820 --> 00:14:58,020
You've never heard of that?

264
00:14:58,020 --> 00:14:59,140
Google that.

265
00:14:59,140 --> 00:15:00,100
That's a good cheese.

266
00:15:00,100 --> 00:15:01,380
It's a good cheese.

267
00:15:01,380 --> 00:15:02,260
Munster cheese.

268
00:15:02,260 --> 00:15:03,540
Apparently I'm just under a rock.

269
00:15:03,540 --> 00:15:04,820
I don't know how clocks work.

270
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:06,420
I don't know what kind of cheese is out there.

271
00:15:06,420 --> 00:15:16,580
Okay, so Munster Ireland is pretty much, it makes up like bottom half of Ireland, essentially.

272
00:15:16,580 --> 00:15:19,620
It's one of the presidents of Ireland in the south of Ireland.

273
00:15:19,620 --> 00:15:26,580
Early Ireland, the kingdom of Munster was one of the kingdoms of Gaelic Ireland rule

274
00:15:26,580 --> 00:15:29,060
by a king of over kings.

275
00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:31,060
That makes no sense.

276
00:15:31,780 --> 00:15:34,260
Following the Norman invasion of Ireland.

277
00:15:34,260 --> 00:15:36,740
So, time to just slamming words together.

278
00:15:36,740 --> 00:15:38,020
I apparently am.

279
00:15:41,060 --> 00:15:42,180
I like that title though.

280
00:15:42,180 --> 00:15:43,620
I'm the king of over kings.

281
00:15:45,380 --> 00:15:48,820
What if one guy was just like, I'm sick of all of y'all.

282
00:15:48,820 --> 00:15:52,740
And he just like kills both of them and kills himself or runs away.

283
00:15:52,740 --> 00:15:54,180
I mean, that's the theory right there.

284
00:15:54,180 --> 00:15:55,620
I don't know about the runner waypoint.

285
00:15:55,620 --> 00:15:56,420
I mean, maybe he did.

286
00:15:56,980 --> 00:15:58,100
Maybe he stowed a boat.

287
00:15:58,820 --> 00:15:59,220
Maybe.

288
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:01,780
How long are they there for?

289
00:16:01,780 --> 00:16:03,220
That's the only thing we haven't found.

290
00:16:03,220 --> 00:16:06,660
I was about to ask the same thing because that would really, I mean,

291
00:16:06,660 --> 00:16:12,980
if they were there for six months at a time, man, they could have went nuts and just,

292
00:16:12,980 --> 00:16:14,740
you know, done all this themselves.

293
00:16:14,740 --> 00:16:15,620
Yeah, right?

294
00:16:15,620 --> 00:16:16,260
Right.

295
00:16:16,260 --> 00:16:18,100
That would be a very likely story.

296
00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:21,860
I love you guys, but I don't know about being trapped on an island with just rabbits

297
00:16:21,860 --> 00:16:24,500
in a lighthouse with you guys for that long.

298
00:16:25,140 --> 00:16:28,020
We'd have to be in the woods where we can just walk the fuck away from each other.

299
00:16:29,060 --> 00:16:29,380
Right.

300
00:16:29,380 --> 00:16:30,500
Sick of looking at y'all.

301
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:31,700
Fuck it. I'm going over here.

302
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:33,780
You know, we couldn't do that here.

303
00:16:33,780 --> 00:16:36,500
This whole place is what, like 45 acres.

304
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:39,780
So I'm going to the other side.

305
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:42,980
Don't come over here.

306
00:16:43,940 --> 00:16:45,220
I wanted to be over there.

307
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:45,940
Damn it.

308
00:16:45,940 --> 00:16:48,660
I need to know how long they were supposed to be on there.

309
00:16:48,660 --> 00:16:52,260
Not saying what the rotation was like if they were supposed to be there for like

310
00:16:53,060 --> 00:16:55,860
a month or whatever.

311
00:16:56,420 --> 00:17:00,020
I wonder why he wrote bad storms all of these days.

312
00:17:00,020 --> 00:17:02,740
And then there wasn't actually supposed to be anything on them.

313
00:17:02,740 --> 00:17:06,980
But like you said, and like we know, they wouldn't have known any different,

314
00:17:06,980 --> 00:17:08,740
but especially being that far apart.

315
00:17:08,740 --> 00:17:16,020
But well, I mean, supposedly like what was written down was fake is what they're saying.

316
00:17:16,020 --> 00:17:19,940
But that doesn't mean anything because, you know, governments cover everything up.

317
00:17:20,580 --> 00:17:22,980
Oh, hey, I found, I found the rotation.

318
00:17:22,980 --> 00:17:23,540
Okay.

319
00:17:23,540 --> 00:17:29,620
It was made up of four men, three stayed at the lighthouse for six week at a time.

320
00:17:29,620 --> 00:17:32,340
So they were there six weeks at a time.

321
00:17:32,900 --> 00:17:40,740
And one replacement would rotate with them one at a time for two weeks during that six week period.

322
00:17:41,700 --> 00:17:42,420
Okay.

323
00:17:42,420 --> 00:17:43,220
Okay.

324
00:17:43,220 --> 00:17:43,380
So.

325
00:17:44,260 --> 00:17:48,260
So they'd see each other for basically, well, I don't know.

326
00:17:48,260 --> 00:17:50,180
I guess you could see the same person for a while.

327
00:17:50,180 --> 00:17:51,140
I had six weeks.

328
00:17:51,140 --> 00:17:52,740
I mean, two weeks, I guess.

329
00:17:52,740 --> 00:17:53,940
Maybe two weeks ain't bad.

330
00:17:54,820 --> 00:17:55,300
Well, yeah.

331
00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:58,180
And they just got there on December 7th.

332
00:17:58,180 --> 00:18:04,740
So I mean, that, yeah, that doesn't seem long enough to do anything drastic.

333
00:18:05,300 --> 00:18:09,460
Here's a proposal based on the psychology of the keepers.

334
00:18:09,460 --> 00:18:13,700
I don't know how you have a psychology of dead people, but okay.

335
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:17,540
Allegedly, MacArthur was a volatile character.

336
00:18:17,540 --> 00:18:22,580
This may have led to a fight breaking out near the cliff edge by the West landing and

337
00:18:22,580 --> 00:18:25,220
caused all three men to fall to their deaths.

338
00:18:25,220 --> 00:18:30,180
Another theory is that one of the men went insane, murdered the other two through their

339
00:18:30,180 --> 00:18:33,700
bodies into the sea and then jumped in to his own death.

340
00:18:34,420 --> 00:18:39,060
I don't know because of the, you know, the, like you said, the chairs being flipped over.

341
00:18:39,780 --> 00:18:40,020
Yeah.

342
00:18:40,020 --> 00:18:47,380
I mean, why fight inside the lighthouse and then just fight all the way out to the cliff and fall off?

343
00:18:47,380 --> 00:18:48,660
Maybe a fight broke out.

344
00:18:48,660 --> 00:18:53,780
One of the guys walked out, whoever chased them MacArthur apparently got into it.

345
00:18:53,780 --> 00:18:57,140
One of the other guys tried to stop it and they all tumbled.

346
00:18:57,140 --> 00:18:59,860
And the insane thing is, yeah, I'm ashamed on that.

347
00:18:59,860 --> 00:19:04,100
I mean, that's too short of a period for people to like lose their minds.

348
00:19:05,300 --> 00:19:07,300
And we're talking about like the 1900s.

349
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:12,820
So it's not like today where we have TV cell phones and all that stuff when we get bored very easily.

350
00:19:12,820 --> 00:19:16,980
Like I feel like they would have took like books or news paper, whatever.

351
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:20,100
I mean, what about some kind of poisoning again?

352
00:19:20,100 --> 00:19:23,540
You know, like, uh, like lead poisoning or something like that?

353
00:19:23,540 --> 00:19:27,380
Like you kind of was with the Mary Celeste, you know, I don't know if the time differences.

354
00:19:27,380 --> 00:19:29,860
I don't know what the time difference is between these two.

355
00:19:29,860 --> 00:19:32,980
I mean, that's, that's not, uh, you know, improbable.

356
00:19:32,980 --> 00:19:36,340
I mean, lead was in paint up until what the seventies.

357
00:19:36,340 --> 00:19:38,420
Maybe they were, they were seeing ghosts.

358
00:19:38,980 --> 00:19:39,940
Possibility.

359
00:19:39,940 --> 00:19:44,900
Shane, I can only assume that you thought this man was eight foot tall because of his giant hand.

360
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:47,060
Why does his hand look this proportional?

361
00:19:49,620 --> 00:19:50,820
That's why I sent that over.

362
00:19:50,820 --> 00:19:53,300
Yeah. So MacArthur is the guy on the way to the left.

363
00:19:53,300 --> 00:19:56,420
The first picture I saw cut out this dude on the end, right?

364
00:19:57,060 --> 00:20:00,980
So this is MacArthur, Marshall and Ducat going from left to right.

365
00:20:01,540 --> 00:20:06,900
This dude all the way to the right is someone named Superintendent Robert Merhead.

366
00:20:06,900 --> 00:20:07,620
I think he did.

367
00:20:07,620 --> 00:20:08,100
He did.

368
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:10,100
Now, now that I see him, look, yeah.

369
00:20:11,860 --> 00:20:13,220
I still haven't seen no pictures.

370
00:20:13,220 --> 00:20:14,260
What the hell?

371
00:20:14,260 --> 00:20:15,700
Look at, look at discord.

372
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:17,140
Oh, what's in discord?

373
00:20:17,140 --> 00:20:18,740
Oh, like his hand.

374
00:20:18,740 --> 00:20:21,460
Something looks wrong with his hand.

375
00:20:21,460 --> 00:20:22,980
His fingers are very straight.

376
00:20:23,620 --> 00:20:25,060
He's not human, man.

377
00:20:25,060 --> 00:20:26,260
He set him up.

378
00:20:26,260 --> 00:20:28,500
Well, the guy next to him, his hand looks pretty big too.

379
00:20:29,220 --> 00:20:29,620
Jesus.

380
00:20:29,620 --> 00:20:30,580
That does look a little weird.

381
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:32,340
They all look weird.

382
00:20:33,700 --> 00:20:35,300
Why is he leaning forward in his hat?

383
00:20:35,300 --> 00:20:37,620
Like he's just like, I'm hungover.

384
00:20:37,620 --> 00:20:38,980
He's smelling him.

385
00:20:38,980 --> 00:20:40,100
He's going to eat him later.

386
00:20:41,380 --> 00:20:42,260
That might be what happened.

387
00:20:42,260 --> 00:20:43,060
Then he felt bad.

388
00:20:43,060 --> 00:20:45,940
He was like, I ate my friends.

389
00:20:45,940 --> 00:20:47,220
All right.

390
00:20:47,220 --> 00:20:48,660
Mystery, mystery solved.

391
00:20:48,660 --> 00:20:50,020
Where do we collect our medals?

392
00:20:50,020 --> 00:20:51,220
Yeah, right?

393
00:20:51,220 --> 00:20:52,820
Yeah, they would eat him.

394
00:20:52,820 --> 00:20:54,660
He wasn't supposed to be there the whole time.

395
00:20:54,660 --> 00:20:56,660
Yeah, I just were looking at all the wrong places.

396
00:20:56,660 --> 00:20:57,380
Right?

397
00:20:57,380 --> 00:20:58,340
Right.

398
00:20:58,340 --> 00:21:03,300
Well, gents, I don't know what happened to him.

399
00:21:03,300 --> 00:21:06,660
I do know that they ain't there no more.

400
00:21:06,660 --> 00:21:07,780
They are not.

401
00:21:07,780 --> 00:21:08,660
They did.

402
00:21:08,660 --> 00:21:11,060
And like I said, it's probably just a elaborate story.

403
00:21:11,060 --> 00:21:13,140
That's what I'm going with, elaborate story.

404
00:21:13,140 --> 00:21:15,140
For all we know, they probably ate him.

405
00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:16,900
For all we know, they probably did find the bodies.

406
00:21:16,900 --> 00:21:19,860
And they were like, oh, we're going to bury him here

407
00:21:19,860 --> 00:21:22,740
because they hated their wives and kids.

408
00:21:24,740 --> 00:21:28,500
We had to be in so long ago, if the bodies washed up on shore,

409
00:21:29,220 --> 00:21:33,380
even if it was a year later, would they have really been able

410
00:21:33,380 --> 00:21:37,300
to recognize them or do anything to determine who they were?

411
00:21:37,300 --> 00:21:38,260
Probably not.

412
00:21:38,260 --> 00:21:41,940
I mean, the fact that a lot of fish and crabs.

413
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:43,380
All right.

414
00:21:43,380 --> 00:21:46,740
I mean, there's a possibility of giant squids too in that area.

415
00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:48,500
We looked that up in the last episode.

416
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:49,220
Yes, we did.

417
00:21:49,940 --> 00:21:52,660
Reach up out the water and snatch them off the shore.

418
00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:53,060
I don't know.

419
00:21:53,060 --> 00:21:55,940
I feel like the water would be pretty shallow right there.

420
00:21:55,940 --> 00:21:56,420
Probably.

421
00:21:56,420 --> 00:21:59,060
But I mean, who's to say they didn't like fall in?

422
00:21:59,060 --> 00:22:02,260
And if they did drown, you know, a giant squid was like,

423
00:22:02,260 --> 00:22:03,060
oh, free meal.

424
00:22:03,060 --> 00:22:03,780
Let me eat that.

425
00:22:03,780 --> 00:22:04,980
I mean, there's a possibility.

426
00:22:04,980 --> 00:22:05,620
Probably not.

427
00:22:05,620 --> 00:22:07,380
They probably just like, oh, dead body.

428
00:22:07,380 --> 00:22:09,940
We'll just bury him in an unmarked grave somewhere.

429
00:22:09,940 --> 00:22:12,500
Didn't even throw salt on them to make sure they won't come back.

430
00:22:12,500 --> 00:22:13,060
Right.

431
00:22:13,060 --> 00:22:15,220
You definitely don't want them zombies coming back.

432
00:22:15,220 --> 00:22:44,500
Right.
