These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 0:00 throughout history there have been 0:02 countless creepy sick and obviously 0:05 cruel things that have happened most of 0:08 the time we learn about them in history 0:09 class but what about all the stuff they 0:12 didn't tell you about well today we are 0:15 diving back into those history books to 0:17 take a look at some of the most 0:19 unsettling things that have ever 0:21 happened and make sure to let me know in 0:23 the comments if you can think of any 0:25 more crazy historical facts starting off 0:28 at number 10 vampire killings so 0:31 starting us off we have the supposed 0:33 vampire killings from the 1800s Now 0:36 spoiler alert here they weren't actually 0:39 vampires well I guess I don't know that 0:41 for sure but I'm gonna go out on a limb 0:43 and say they weren't anyways back in the 0:45 1800s people in New England believed 0:48 that cadavers were rising from their 0:50 graves at night and preying on the 0:52 living so to solve this problem they 0:53 began exhuming the cadavers now some 0:56 kept it simple and just turned the 0:58 cadaver face down but others jump to 1:01 more extreme methods like ripping the 1:03 bones apart and rearranging them or 1:05 burning the deceased person's heart and 1:07 inhaling the smoke apparently at the 1:10 time it was believed inhaling the smoke 1:12 cured tuberculosis though I can only 1:15 imagine it made matters much worse for 1:18 them some towns were so into the ritual 1:20 that they would even hold festivals 1:21 during the process and celebrate the 1:24 examination and subsequent destruction 1:26 of the corpses all together so while it 1:29 was incredibly unsettling they did truly 1:31 believe they were vampires haunting them 1:33 in the night so I guess it gave them 1:35 some peace of mind next up at number 1:38 nine Dentures well today Dentures are 1:41 made from composite resin or sometimes 1:43 porcelain during the 18th and 19th 1:46 centuries of course those materials 1:47 weren't available but as you can imagine 1:50 people were still losing teeth at an 1:52 even higher rate due to the high sugar 1:54 diet attempted teeth whitening which was 1:56 really just wearing away their enamel 1:58 instead of brightening it and the 1:59 overall lack of knowledge around hygiene 2:02 so Dentures were still needed and wanted 2:05 by many so what was their material of 2:07 choice well for the easiest and most 2:09 profitable route many would acquire the 2:12 teeth from dead bodies although if you 2:14 had some money you might be able to 2:16 afford dentures made from Ivory other 2:18 materials were sometimes the teeth of 2:20 animals or wood but honestly I think we 2:23 can all agree that none of those sound 2:25 like terribly sanitary options 2:27 considering professional physicians at 2:29 the time weren't sterilizing instruments 2:31 and some didn't even believe in 2:34 disinfecting prior to surgery next up at 2:37 number eight stained glass if you walk 2:40 into just about any old church you'll 2:42 notice the walls are decorated with 2:43 beautiful stained glass but what might 2:46 surprise you is that in some of the 2:48 particularly older pieces there is a 2:51 strange ingredient that helps it all 2:53 come together in 1112 a German monk 2:57 wrote about the process of creating the 2:59 beautifully colored and as he detailed 3:01 it starts off innocently enough adding 3:04 sand and potash at a high temp until it 3:06 becomes molten from there they'd add a 3:08 stabilizer before coloring the glass 3:10 with different metallic oxides like 3:12 copper Cobalt and gold but once the 3:14 glass was cooled and shaped the small 3:16 details were added by paint they made 3:19 the paint usually from lead or copper 3:21 and would then suspend it in urine so 3:25 quite literally some of those old 3:27 stained glass windows were painted with 3:29 pee paint which I mean kind of just 3:31 makes me giggle if I'm honest but it is 3:33 definitely a weird ingredient to think 3:34 about being in paint coming in at number 3:37 seven leather bound books nowadays it's 3:40 unusual to even find real leather on 3:43 anything but once upon a time the 3:45 leather on books wasn't even from cows 3:47 it was from people called anthropodermic 3:51 bibliopagi the books were made in a 3:53 similar way as they would now but 3:55 obviously with one huge difference they 3:58 used human skin instead head of an 4:00 animal while there are actually only 18 4:03 confirmed books of its kind that still 4:06 exist we have no idea just how many 4:08 there could have been all those years 4:10 ago allegedly the books were usually 4:12 made from executed convicts and during 4:15 the French Revolution there were rumors 4:17 that a Tannery for human skin was 4:19 established outside of Paris I mean it 4:22 kind of gives me the willies to think 4:23 about it and I'm just glad we've moved 4:25 on to a different material to bind our 4:27 books today next up at number six mini 4:30 Dean mulamina Dean or Minnie as she was 4:33 often referred to was a nanny in New 4:35 Zealand during 1880 and was a well-known 4:38 caretaker in her town but something was 4:41 off with the woman and soon she began 4:43 having quite the dark spot on her name 4:45 and career in 1889 one of the young 4:48 people under her care suddenly died as 4:52 if out of nowhere and initially it was 4:54 viewed as a freak accident but two years 4:57 later the same thing happened again now 4:59 with two miners perished under her care 5:02 police decided to investigate further 5:04 into the matter after a bit of sleuthing 5:06 it was concluded that under Minnie's 5:08 care the two miners were as she was 5:10 attempting to take out life insurance on 5:12 them police immediately took the 5:14 remaining young boy in her care finding 5:16 it in dirty clothes and drinking curdled 5:19 milk by 1895 the investigation into her 5:22 crimes continued and she was spotted 5:24 trying to flee on a train with another 5:26 victim in her arms and when police 5:28 searched her house they found three more 5:30 covered up victims eventually found 5:33 guilty for all her crimes she was the 5:35 first and only woman ever hanged in New 5:38 Zealand next up at number five radiation 5:40 test subject in 1999 a man named hisachi 5:45 Uchi was a power plant technician and he 5:47 became known for being exposed to the 5:49 highest amount of radiation of any human 5:52 in history while working at the tokomura 5:55 nuclear power plant after a lack of 5:58 safety protocols improper train meaning 6:00 and just an overall pressure to meet 6:02 deadlines Uchi and his co-workers made a 6:05 terrible error they mistakenly mixed an 6:07 incorrect measurement of radioactive 6:10 materials into the wrong tank and as 6:12 you've probably figured out it caused a 6:15 near fatal burst of gamma rays Hisashi 6:17 who happened to be the closest to the 6:19 incident was brutally injured and sent 6:22 to the hospital once he was there it was 6:24 discovered he had no more white blood 6:27 cells so essentially meaning that he had 6:29 no remaining immune system and despite 6:31 being in intense pain with a rapidly 6:34 deteriorating condition doctors kept him 6:36 alive under the family's request so for 6:39 83 days Uchi remained alive being used 6:42 as a test subject for experimental 6:45 radiation treatment by the doctors which 6:48 I mean in their defense was the request 6:49 of the family but still he endured 6:52 several cardiac arrests lost all of his 6:55 skin and suffered brain damage as well 6:57 as organ failure one of the last things 6:59 Uchi ever said was quote I can't take it 7:03 anymore I'm not a guinea pig and then 7:05 finally one more Cardiac Arrest released 7:08 him from his torture coming in at number 7:10 four mummy most widely practiced between 7:13 the 12th to the 17th century although 7:16 there were a few cases in the 18th 7:18 century that pop up Mamiya was widely 7:21 used as a means of medicine in many 7:23 European countries now if you can't tell 7:26 by the name mamia is creepily just as it 7:29 sounds the use of human remains to fix a 7:32 living person's ailments it was believed 7:34 by many of the top physicians at the 7:36 time that ingesting certain remains 7:39 prompted the medicinal power of the 7:41 mummy and could cure things like 7:43 coagulated blood pain coughs 7:46 inflammation cramps and even heal open 7:49 wounds now they didn't just sit around 7:51 eating the carcass directly instead they 7:54 would either grind the bones into a 7:55 powder and drink it from there or drink 7:58 an extracted liquid from the embalmed 8:00 individual in fact it was so popular at 8:03 one point that's believed the reason 8:05 there are so few mummies these days is 8:07 because of the high demand of Flesh at 8:09 the time coming in at number three James 8:12 Jamison one of The Heirs to the Jameson 8:15 Whiskey family fortune Jameson 8:18 considered himself to be an adventurer 8:20 of sorts and often traveled to far-off 8:22 lands detailing the trips in his diary 8:25 in 1888 Jameson decided to head out to 8:28 explore the Congo and while there he 8:30 wrote about and demanded some gruesome 8:33 things from the locals so before 8:35 beginning this Expedition Jameson 8:37 discovered that the area he was visiting 8:39 was known to have a population that 8:41 participated in the eating of other 8:43 humans apparently Jameson set out to 8:46 witness it firsthand which I mean why 8:49 was that his dream a little suspicious 8:51 if you ask me but I digress according to 8:54 Assad faran who was his translator for 8:57 the trip Jameson bought a girl from a 8:59 Crater of slaves for a few handkerchiefs 9:02 and gave her over to the tribe to be 9:04 allegedly he didn't pay the tribe 9:06 directly but in a roundabout way he did 9:09 sort of pay to have this girl what's 9:11 even more gross is that he proceeded to 9:13 draw and paint watercolors of the 9:16 gruesome event while it happened which 9:18 again just wrong on so many levels 9:21 coming 9:21 coming number two camp Cambodian Barbies 9:24 you may have been taught about the Khmer 9:27 Rouge in history class but if they don't 9:29 ring a bell essentially they were an 9:31 extreme Communist Regime in Cambodia 9:34 that held government between 1975 to 9:36 1979. they were known for being 9:39 extremely cruel and committed some of 9:41 the most horrifying acts of genocide in 9:43 history with nearly 2 million perishing 9:46 under their ruling now during their 9:47 radical rule the entire country was 9:50 isolated from All Foreign influences 9:52 this included closing schools hospitals 9:55 factories Banks foreign agriculture they 9:58 believe this would stimulate The Rebirth 10:00 of the country but of course all it did 10:03 was send it into desolate famine and 10:05 poverty led by a man named Paul Pott the 10:08 people of the country could not forage 10:09 for food despite the fact that everyone 10:12 was starving and anyone who disobeyed 10:14 the orders was killed apparently as the 10:16 people became more and more desperate 10:18 they began to turn to folk magic turning 10:21 Barbie dolls into smoking Tal talismans 10:24 for luck thankfully since its 10:25 dissolution in 1999 all the leaders have 10:28 been jailed for their atrocities and the 10:30 people are freed from the genocidal 10:32 regime and last up in our number one 10:34 spot the rabbit woman her name was Mary 10:38 Toft and in 1726 she became known 10:41 throughout Surrey England as having been 10:43 the woman who gave birth to rabbits now 10:46 I know what you're thinking that isn't 10:48 possible and you would be right but 10:51 still the story of how she convinced 10:53 people it was real was crazy apparently 10:56 Toft was actually pregnant at one point 10:58 but miscarried and it could have been 11:01 this that sent her into her Madness Toft 11:03 began declaring that she was giving 11:05 birth to various animal parts and so her 11:08 local doctor became involved in the case 11:10 at first everyone actually believed her 11:13 as in fact a rabbit did well come out of 11:16 her and with a doctor backing up her 11:19 claims the king and his Royal surgeon 11:21 got involved unlike her little local 11:23 doctor the king surgeon was skeptical 11:26 and after discovering corn inside the 11:29 stomach of one of the rabbits and hay in 11:31 their droppings it proved the animal 11:33 hadn't developed inside Mary eventually 11:35 Mary Toft admitted to the hoax and 11:37 explained that she had manually inserted 11:40 the animals inside her to make the 11:42 delivery as realistic as possible she 11:45 was immediately imprisoned for fraud and 11:47 the medical community was ridiculed for 11:49 having been fooled thanks so much
