This is my final video with the bad audio! From here on out, all my videos will have audio crisper than Sir Frankie Crisp. Beware, though - the audio goes WAY up and down in this episode. The intro music is going to be insanely loud, and you’re gonna need to turn down your volume for it. Most of the editing on this episode was done by the great and incomparable Hemlox, making this the first video I’ve co-created with someone else, but I made the intro and outro, and we didn’t communicate on using one equalized audio level. I’ll take the blame for that. On the bright side, no more of that coming up! Enjoy my future episodes!
Genuinely happy to find a channel covering eclectic, strange stuff with the energy of listening to your friend. Looking forward to seeing how big youll get!
You’re blowing up before our eyes and it’s beautiful. 100% the next big channel in this genre and better than most others. You deliver the story efficiently and entertainingly. Other creators go for length and cramming in information while you actually journalistically deliver information like you know what you’re doing. Would love to speak with you sometime personally and discuss your ambitions and overall vision of this channel and beyond, simply out of interest.
God, this is quite possibly my new favorite channel!! I've spent the last few weeks listening to you on my work commute. You're a wonderful storyteller and very well-read!!
you have such a natural gift for storytelling! and finding interesting topics I’ve never heard of before! this is my third video of yours I’ve watched in a row and I’m so happy to have found this gem of a channel. quality videos like this are hard to find amongst all the plagiarized and AI essay videos. the last time I got this feeling was when I found miniminuteman
To me this is the real story, i dont know why he brushed over it. Its destroyed with a professional explosion, noone is seen even though there are cameras there 24/7, and theyre torn down the next day, with no news of a time capsule
I live really close to where the guidestones used to be. Among my friends and I, it was just one of those strange things that you could go and visit. I still regret never visiting, but what happened to them couldn’t have been expected
Found this channel like an hour ago, and its so raw and comforting. Also you have a freakin dope haircut and really well thought out and spoken videos/ topics.
I have a suggestion! Perhaps not a huge mystery attached but something i saw on the way to San Diego a few years back. The Museum of History in Granite. A strange monument in the desert that from my memory is rarely open to the public.
I just found your channel. I love your content. The Yeti mic you have is a fine microphone. You’re just using it incorrectly. The Yeti is a “side address” microphone. The part of the mic you should be speaking into is pointing up and away from you in this video. Tilt the mic so it’s vertical and speak into side where the “Blue” logo is.
I love your videos and am really happy to hear about the audio issues being fixed soon. I was about to ask why it always sounds like there’s a basketball game going on in the upstairs, in your videos ??😅
love the new vid! and since it contains an alex jones mention, i'd be remiss not to plug the absolutely excellent podcast Knowledge Fight, which has been painstakingly documenting his garbage for years now. Can't recommend it enough!
came here to say much the same as everyone else, congrats on growing so quickly! great information on the sort of subject matter I enjoy, very entertaining, and your delivery is improving with each video! and how quickly you're able to produce output! cannot wait to see what's in the chamber waiting to be released; glad to be able to watch another channel become big! you deserve it have you ever heard of Oneida Community? Roman von Ungern-Sternberg? passenger pigeons? the Vril Society? Halifax Harbour, 1917...
Great video! As a Georgia resident who grew up with conspiracy theories about this, I def think it was Ted Turner and some buddies. Not some wacky conspiracy just some eccentric rich guys trying to share their eccentric beliefs in an eccentric way because they are rich lmao. I'm much more interested in who demolished them and why.
I think this is supposed to be a guide for if civilization falls, which is why he wants so many languages and is vouching for population control. Keep in mind that the maker may have believed the population bomb's idea of overpopulation. The rest of the commandments are just: be good people.
Wait, Tor, if we're on the last video of the backlog, does that mean - next video is made using the tips your fans (and haters) have been giving you? y'all get ready to find out what kind of show Tor Parsons is actually trying to give us. can't wait
I'm so sorry for this, but this kept drawing me out of the narrative. Rosicrucian is pronounced like "rose" like the flower for its first syllable . And Edgar Cayce's last name is pronounced like "kay_see" . Doesn't make sense, but that's the way he pronounced it. I've done a lot of reading on both these topics in the past, so they really pricked my ears up when you said them. I love your videos, but correct pronunciation helps sell the veracity of your work. I'm only making this comment for you in case you refer to either of them again.
writing before listening: will the cube debacle be mentioned? also note- elberton GA isnt too far off from the lake hartwell area, which before it was a lake and in pre-colonial times was an important trade hub for various tribes, earning a name that translates to 'center of the world'. this might have played a part in the choice of location for the guidestones from what ive heard, after the explosion the dirt under it was excavated. no time capsule. there were also a few spelling mistakes on the inscription, which is a bit odd
31:54: I think it's said Kay-see. It's how I've heard it. Checking it's how Wikipedia's pronunciation guide gives it. ...Do not recall how I knew that.
Those films you mentioned didn't instil a fear of nuclear destruction in the population. Commercial television aired them to express and exploit the pre-existing fear. Caching! $
I look forward to the day you go to move that durian and he looks at you after yelling "Not so hard!" And you retort "Hush you deformed lemon." His reply of "I am no lemon! Hey, the corner of your basement wall is showing." Will get giggles. Your response "You seem pretty sour to me Mr. Not A Lemon" will get laughs 😂 And that is how you bring him on once you figure out how to animate him! ❤
It is absurd how offended some people get by this monument, going as far as to blow it up is just so unnecessary. The exact number of people it suggests to maintain humanity under may be questionable but the general idea seems reasonable enough. The text is just so minimal, it is not telling anyone to live any specific lifestyle or anything, it is essentially just suggesting that society should be managed carefully.
Reasonable ideas have lead to massive death tolls, though. Some guy wrote about how factory workers needed better pay and it quickly devolved into a nightmare of forced relocations and imposing grain quotas on starving people.
@@ORLY911 I mean in comparison to basically every other guide for humanity that people have written down, it is relatively difficult to use the Georgia Guide Stones to justify some crazy political regime.
You tell me the information plaque on the Guidestones reiterates that the given name, R.C. Christian, is a pseudonym and so it does. But... it does it in a very strange way. It's written as a typo. The actual tablet reads: "Author: R.C.Christian (A pseudonyn)" Now that information tablet is worth a tiny fraction of the total project cost and i find it hard to believe the author and the mason spelled that word incorrectly. It's a code. So far i have entirely failed to crack it. That being said, the only word or phrase i can make from the letters contained with the brackets is 'A doyens pun' ❤
Five billion people is already more than twice the carrying capacity of the planet. Two billion is the most we can safely hold (and that's pushing it).
Possibly stupid question, but shouldn't there be a credit for Subways of Your Mind now that it's been solved? And permission if that hasn't already been granted. Edit: Whoops, it is in the credits. I was checking the description.
Yes, it's in the credits. Also, I don't think that particular version is copyrighted, even by FEX; the band released a different recording of it when it was found, but the version that was on the radio was a demo, and even they don't know where it can be found anymore.
@@torscabinetofcuriosities Oh, whoops. No one watches the credits! :P I was checking the description for a link. First let me say that I LOVE the idea of using unknown songs in this manner as the author would have to come forward to copy claim. That said, while I am not a lawyer, I have encountered this much before: To my understanding, at minimum the lyrics and tune are still copyrighted, even if that particular performance is not. Unless they sold them, which seems unlikely, FEX still holds those rights, which gives them the right to restrict the use of any recording without a license, though cover licenses are automatic in the US (they still require payment). They seem to have a fairly permissive stance on use, but if they or their assigns when they eventually pass were to make an issue out of it it could be trouble. FWIW, in the US the performance is probably still copyrighted. In 1995 the "Copyright Restoration for International Works Act" put back into copyright any foreign work that a) had previously not been b) was still under copyright in its country of origin and c) would not be public domain under the Sonny Bonno Copyright Act. Infamously, this affected "Peter and the Wolf". It would take a German copyright lawyer to figure out b) for certain, but based on the Wikipedia article thereon, FEX presumptively owned the copyright to it in Germany in 1995, giving them US copyright now even if it had lapsed. Unless there is a US copyright registration, though, it would mostly be an issue in the sense of a take-down notice.
Is it possible that the guide stones were placed there because they would be beyond the blast radius of a Soviet first strike target? FUN FACT: Concrete and steel run like water for a millisecond before they vaporize at ground zero of an H-bomb blast.
15:19 This "multiple people" thing doesn't make any sense. He said "they" as in people looking into the stone, not the people who built it. Also, "they" as a gender-unknown term is incredibly common. This is long before conservatives declared a war on they-them lol

Nooooo i like the bad audio quality 😢
Thank you Tor
Looking forward to more. I recently had your channel show up on my main page. Glad to be here. 😊
The care and heart you are putting into this channel shines through in every moment of it. Keep it up!

No freaking way I was just watching the back catalog of this channel and I see a new video uploaded 37 minutes ago!!!!!
same!
This literally just happened to me as well. It appears the algorithm has blessed this channel.
@@SaikyoDinosaur it was only a matter of time, bro definitely deserves more views!
That just happened to me too
i love that your cohost is held up AGAINST tape but not BY tape lol
I found this channel yesterday and subscribed. Glad your fixing the audio because I kept thinking someone was knocking on my front door.
Genuinely threw me off when there wasn't a water bottle sip at the end this time lol
Also I dug up a radish! And then I dug up two more radii!
i wuz jzt scrolling 2 see if ny1 else noticed!! wau...

Your output time is insane. All of this in a month. I can tell this channel is going to be big
He said in another video that he had these videos all compiled before recently starting uploading.
I remember being genuinely surprised some one would want to destroy the monument.
To me this is the real story, i dont know why he brushed over it. Its destroyed with a professional explosion, noone is seen even though there are cameras there 24/7, and theyre torn down the next day, with no news of a time capsule
just watched ur utah town video it's crazy how much better the quality's gotten in a few weeks. good stuff keep it up dude!!
Love Jollibee the Durian who telepathically sends us images and additional info ❤ this is quickly becoming my fave channel!!

Nice dude, I can't wait to enjoy your channel before it becomes huge
rightttt
Every day I strive to live a life worthy of being talked about on Tor’s Cabinet of Curiosities
You are my favorite channel I have found in a long time.
As a native of Atlanta, I forget that not everyone knows how buckwild Ted Turner is/was.
Bro the speed at which you pump out videos, respect
I hope your channel blows up. Your videos are so interesting and entertaining

Man’s just hitting out with quality content time and time again! Really enjoying the channel, dude!
I’m glad my recommendations brought me here, great video!
i’m delighted to have found this channel early. fascinating stuff
The label on Dr. Bronner's! I laughed way too hard at that man 😅

have you ever heard of Oneida Community? Roman von Ungern-Sternberg? passenger pigeons? the Vril Society? Halifax Harbour, 1917...
The title initially made me think of Bamahenge, a replica of Stonehenge in south alabama where I went to high school.
Love your channel dude!! Keep up the great work
this is the fastest explosion for a small youtuber ive seen in a while. respect, dude.

Not some wacky conspiracy just some eccentric rich guys trying to share their eccentric beliefs in an eccentric way because they are rich lmao.

I never thought of Ted Turner before this but now that I've heard it it makes a lot of sense.
What is that A-ha song in your intro? Its driving me nuts trying to find it. Great videos- keep it up!
Maybe RC Christian stands for rotary club Christian’s 😂
Or they were really into those little remote control cars
Danggg what an interesting dive into this... thank you for such an amazing vid ❤
ive really enjoyed all of your videos. i'm excited to see where your channel goes!

I like your durian, and I was not expecting the Rosicrucian to Ted Turner trajectory.
You are the alone, lone gunmen. Very intriguing content!
after my Uncle died, I visited these stones. absolutely eerie. kind of glad they're gone.
LETS GO MORE TOR !!
loving the videos, the coming year will bring many more subscribers, i can see it in my crystal ball👁️👁️
Wait, Tor, if we're on the last video of the backlog, does that mean -
next video is made using the tips your fans (and haters) have been giving you?
y'all get ready to find out what kind of show Tor Parsons is actually trying to give us. can't wait

This is one of the best episodes yet icl
You won't believe this, but today I dug up a radish... and as crazy as it sounds, I later dug up two more radii.
"Endgame, the blueprint for human enslavement" was one of the media that firstly radicalised me😂
what is that cut at 15:19?
Hype hype hype! Another banger
i can;'t believe that Captain Planet made those guide stones! lol
you are unstoppable
Found your channel you rock
31:54: I think it's said Kay-see. It's how I've heard it. Checking it's how Wikipedia's pronunciation guide gives it. ...Do not recall how I knew that.
Craziest thing is they didn't have the proclamation in Portuguese. I thought that was more widely spoken than Swahili because of Brazil?
could be considered too close to spanish so wanted to get in something from different roots instead

@@crawlingchaos2811 I honestly don't know what you are referring to, I am not all that familiar with American monuments.
Anyone know the name of the outro song?
It is credited in the text at the end of every video.
I wish I could’ve seen them before they were destroyed. Know someone who did though. Thanks for the interesting video on it!
Very interesting 🎉

I believe he’s mentioned the durian is fake and he got it from some random store
@@qwert_511good. A real one wouldn't smell good, rotten or not.
