I love how Shane talked about hiding in a panic room and saying he'll he fine and ryan is like no I can't do that but with the social distancing rn in the recent postmortem Ryan was like I'm thriving and Shane looking like he's gone crazy
Title: "The COVERT poisoning..." Theory 1: "They left traces in the restaurant, the airplane, an exotic nightclub, and over 700 people had to be tested"
This is especially horrifying by virtue of the fact that this is a modern story. This is now-existing corruption in our world, not a quirky spooky story from the past.
It's scarier living in the UK. With the nerve agent poisoning earlier this year we all had theories (a popular one was that the US did it yo start WW3).
Rohan too low unemployment isn’t always a good thing. Take any economics class and you’ll see why. Anyone who still thinks Trump is good for this country is delusional tbh. The whole world hates the US and WW3 is pretty much inevitable. How can you support a man that inhumanely locks away innocent people?
I work in medical imaging and I remember learning about this case in school. Po-210 emits alpha radiation (essentially a helium atom), which really doesn't need the kind of shielding you'd think it does. In fact, Po-210 in particular can't penetrate skin from the outside. It wouldn't have set off any detectors because a plastic vial would be enough to shield it. Once ingested, the body itself serves as adequate shielding (which is probably why the doctors didn't catch it until right before he died) while causing massive internal damage to soft tissues and wiping out white blood cells. It's not a pleasant way to go.
Alpha radiation also can't travel further than a few centremetres, meaning that only a specific small area would be intensely radiated. It's actually in smoke detectors lol.
Shane: “Panic house, invite your friends over and watch movies and eat popcorn.” . Ryan: “I wouldn’t wanna do that” 2020 and the CoronaVirus: “Too bad”
For anyone watching this now, there has recently been an update in the case: A European rights court have now found Russia officially responsible for this assassination. Although Russia won't take responsibility (obviously), this basically means the case is solved.
I lived right near where Litvinenko lived during his poisoning. I was 7 at the time, and my dad picked me up from school, but we came across multiple TV vans, police, people in hazmat suits and even a helicopter on our way home. We switched on the TV and saw my dad’s car on the screen and we soon figured out it was a spy poisoning. The house was blocked off by a tent and then something else for the next 4 years, with a note from the court beside the door ordering prohibition on trespassing the radioactive house. Since then it was only occupied for a year or two, but ended up empty most of the time. Spooky.
Before his death, Litvinenko said: "You may succeed in silencing one man but the howl of protest from around the world, Mr. Putin, will reverberate in your ears for the rest of your life." This seems to be coming true. What happened to him was horrible, but this gives a little hope.
For some reason the idea of the spies calling the restaurant to ask the cook for help is hilarious to me. "Hello, I would like you to put this expensive poison in some tea." ... "Hello?" ... "Hellooo?"
Harry Fitz I believe the parents actually sue whoever disagrees with their opinions (which just screams guilty even more) and considering Buzzfeed unsolved’s large following Shane and Ryan they are bound to face legal issues. Which sucks But then again if you can leave your kids in a foreign country, you’re already a naive person, so going after people who do not believe you i bet is routine for them
@@akshaygowrishankar7440 it's also Alpha radiation that is far more destructive (if in direct contact, especially if its inside your body) than the gamma radiation from chernobyl
@@andreeam.9835 nice I learned something new today, thank you :) I was just trying to suggest that the poison used on Litvinenko was different than the material at Chernobyl.
I learnt about this case in physics! We were learning about the three types of radiation. Polonium 210 emits alpha radiation that can't pass through paper and definitely not skin however once it gets inside of the body it's ridiculously dangerous becuase it can't get out and alpha radiation is the most ionising so it slowly destroyed his insides over time with no way to remove it.
Need to clear up some stuff on radiation poisoning around 09:12-- Polonium 210 is a radioisotope that undergoes alpha decay. Alpha particles themselves are relatively harmless because they're physically massive and don't travel well through dense material; they slow down (use up their energy) before they can really go anywhere. In that way, you can hold Polonium 210 in your hand because your skin is thick enough to stop alpha particles (and a handshake would be no issue for the same reason). Alpha radiation becomes problematic when ingested because--similarly to how it can't pass skin from the outside--it can't leave the inside of the body once consumed. It's a high energy particle, so all that energy is now on the inside, ripping electrons from its environment (in this case, the cells of the body).
The particle has a charge, in the case of alpha radiation, it's positive (specifically the nucleus of a helium atom). Positive attracts negative, and because alpha particles are of unbalanced positive charge, they rapidly combine (by pulling from other atoms) with negative charges to create helium. The atoms the alpha particle pulls electrons from lose two electrons to balance the charge; for organic systems this causes significant damage.
For Postmortem (or just anyone that might read this comment): there's different kinds of radiation, Polonium is specifically an alpha radioactive particle and has limited penetrative capabilities, it can only go as far as a piece of paper. However, when ingested, its metabolism by the body leads to the irradiation of all cells in it's path and that is what leads to illness. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that all those 700+ people exposed to polonium did not fall ill as they did not ingest it, they were protected by their clothes basically stopping the radioactive particles from entering their bodies Fun Fact: 1g of Polonium is enough to kill 50 million people and injure 50 million more but only when ingested
An interesting question (I'm not a health physicist, so take my words with a grain of salt). I'd say unless it's a very very deep cut, you still have many (relatively) thick layers of skin in the way that would prohibit the radiation from an alpha particle to penetrate the body.
@@weedwhacker287 Anybody could've seen that coming from a mile away, I have no idea why he went back to Russia so soon. It's a shame. Russia is nothing but a dictatorship.
The whole original poisoning was a huge Putin flex! This was a purposeful message. And the poisonings continue without any repercussions. A huge public global warning that you are never beyond their reach if you threaten them.
The myth where Tantalus could see food and water but cannot reach it to eat or drink? I haven't read Greek mythology explicitly but I have read the Percy Jackson series lol thanks for making me remember it. Have a great day!
Wait so was the cook actually contacted to put poison in the food and the cook was like "yeah no, can't do that," but didn't bother to report this to the police or to warn Litvenenko he was going to get poisoned??
@@melisentiapheiffer3034 So it's "western propaganda" that he invaded Ukraine and threatened nuclear warheads? I didn't know Putin himself creates western propaganda.
I legitimately thought when clicking on this video , “Russia is going to kill them for doing this video.” Then Shane says the same thing. Stay safe my friends.
You guys should definitely do the death of Princess Diana!! I feel like so many theories are out there about what really happened like if she was murdered. Great video as always!!!
Ryan: "You don't think that the British government would endanger their own citizens like that." British Prime Minister on Covid: "Let the bodies pile up."

DrShocktopus So far as I can tell, your statement is not true at all, and in fact, during the investigation, the specific isotope used to kill him was traced back to a Russian reactor by physicist Norman Dombey. Can you provide links to back up your assertion?
Why did these guys expect to find a chef that would poison food? Did they just flip through the yellow pages calling every restaurant in town trying to find a murderous chef??? #boogaraguitara #longlivethehotdaga
Great questions... It is likely that this was no ordinary chef and I'm pretty sure the FSB would have been able to contact a local (russian) chef and kindly ask him to help out with an order, possibly an order by the President. Most likely this person was someone who was smart enough to not involve himself in this matter and who knew not to speak about his orders given by the russians because if he did...well, he would have gotten burned.
For the postmortem: NOT A QUESTION BUT PLEASE LET SHANE EXPLAIN THE PEOPLE IN FRANCE WHO DANCED TILL THE DIED! Oh and love you guys! #shaniac #OnlyAboogaraOnTheWeekends
Technically it’s the FSB, though the KGB technically exists in Belarus so you’re not 100% wrong. They’re a strong ally of Russia so they could, in theory, kill them because Russia could suggest they do that. That is of course, if Russia did poising Litvinenko. Poor guy either way. What a nasty way to go.
I'm from the UK I was 8 when he was killed I remember seeing him on the news I've always wondered why he was killed, thanks guys for doing uk based content
Daniel Gower I was about 9 when I saw this on the tv. Spooked me out, especially when they showed photos of him lying in the bed sick. In comparison to his photo of him when he’s well, honestly it’s hard to believe it’s the same man. Even I noticed that when I was 9. Also it is good to see UK content on the channel. Probably my fave case they’ve covered and I thought it was well done. Keep up the good work lads 👍🏻
you would think that the chef might try to tip the guy off though? like "uh hey, those two shady guys just tried to pay me to poison you, watch out bro"????
7:46 I'm studying Chemistry, and even though I'm an undergraduate, I can say that it would definetly not glow. However, it may have tasted metalic or smeeled odd, maybe even the tea would look to be very hot/steamy, more then a usual cup of tea; like a kettle that blows out alot of steam.
A little bit of a Greek story for ya; Tantalus was invited to Olympus by the gods for a feast. He asked to bring some ambrosia and nectar (food and drink of the gods) home to study it, but they refused. He invitd them to his home for food sometime aftr, and served them a soup that had the chopped up remains of his children in it. When they realized, they killed him and sentenced him to the fields of punishment; he would stand in a lake, a fruit tree over his head. When he tried to grab a fruit, the tree would move out of reach; when he tried to get water, the water would move away from him. Thus comes the word 'tantalizing'.
I strongly dislike the idea of the word "tantalising" coming from a myth in which children are murdered and eaten by the will of their own father. I love myths but I might have to removed that world from ye olde vocabulary
o m I agree, especially with the political climate in the US (idk if you’re american, don’t want to assume). I just hope the spooky bois don’t end up on Russia’s radar
It’s actually been said that he noticed the bitter taste of the tea once the two men had left - at that point it was too late anyway. Even if he’d known what he’d taken, his death was inevitable from that point. The poor guy, death by radiation poisoning is slow and excruciating
You guys should do the suspicious Double-Murder Suicide by former WWE professional wrestler, Chris Benoit. The official ruling says that because of head blows from matches, Chris went crazy and killed his wife, son, then committed suicide. But their is much evidence saying that he was framed. For one, a text message was sent from his phone on Sunday morning, but he died Saturday night. Also, Chris had been reporting someone watching his house, outside just staring. Additionally, 14 hours before they discovered the scene, someone edited his wikipedia page, saying he won't be able to compete that night due to personal issues including the death of his wife
I remember reading a Time article about this when it happened, which led to a couple years where I was terrified of being poisoned by FSB agents. Though as a teenager in Michigan who had no intel on anything involving Russia, I was probably pretty low on their "to do" list.
Shane's joke about the "ooze-long" tea and his reference to the Keystone Cops (which are from the silent movie era, btw) just confirms in my mind that Shane is either from the past, or he's secretly youthful forever and he's actually 120 years old! Which I'm totally okay with :)
"i am also sure that they did this with the intention of poisoning mr. litvinenko" why else would you put radioactive isotopes in someones tea? as a birthday present? 💀
Question: Ryan, if you were to poison Shane, what would you use? And Shane, if you were to poison Ryan, what would you use?? Looking forward to a response. Thanks.

In my radiochemistry class, we had a homework assignment which involved comparing the radiation dose he had absorbed with the background dose experienced by the average person and the deadly dose. It is astonishing. Also note how heavy metal toxicity wasn’t mentioned. I’d hazard a guess that he would not be alive even if we took the damaging effects of that high a dose of radiation out of the equation.
Risky video to make, especially considering the most recent event earlier this year, the whole of England still kind of on edge about it... but none the less it was a very interesting video
I assume they're talking about the novichok poisoning of Sergei Skripal (former Russian spy)and his daughter, Yulia in Salisbury. More recently, another two people were poisoned by novichok in Amesbury, two normal British citizens of which one died.
Ama Weerakkody Is novichok radiation poisoning? I'm not a native speaker, so I didn't know of that word. Also, thanks for the information! I didn't hear of either of those incidents, maybe because they weren't so heavily broadcasted in my country.
novichok is the nerve agent the boys mentioned in the video of the assassination that occurred earlier this year. it's not a radiation-type poison. it is however known to be used almost exclusively by the fsb and other russian agencies.
For the post mortem: As someone who lives in the UK quite close to Salisbury ( where the two most recent poisonings of ex Russian spies have happened) there has been much talk of the three events being connected, do you believe they are?
I honestly can't believe Lugovoy and Kovtun are still at large seriously they should be on watch list in the world with a massive bounty on their heads

Interesting! What about cuts? Like you get some in a paper cut. Could that injure you? Science is fascinating :D
I love how you said "fun fact"! LOL
An interesting question (I'm not a health physicist, so take my words with a grain of salt). I'd say unless it's a very very deep cut, you still have many (relatively) thick layers of skin in the way that would prohibit the radiation from an alpha particle to penetrate the body.
Oh I hope this makes it to Postmortem!!!!
Watching this again after Alexei Navalny, a Putin critic, was poisoned with a nerve agent.
same
Then they arrested him
@@weedwhacker287 Anybody could've seen that coming from a mile away, I have no idea why he went back to Russia so soon. It's a shame. Russia is nothing but a dictatorship.
The whole original poisoning was a huge Putin flex! This was a purposeful message. And the poisonings continue without any repercussions. A huge public global warning that you are never beyond their reach if you threaten them.
And they probably did it again, he died about two weeks ago as of me writing this
Ryan be slaying all those Russian last names
Chloe Nah, he's pretty bad at it
Chloe traitor to mother Russia.
he's as good as a non-speaker can get tbh c:
As good as a non-speaker could XD
But still can't say February.
**Someone please make a compilation of Ryan subtly threatening Shane**
Bailey Rian ... subtly?
Bailey Rian and not-so-subtly threatening Shane
Bailey Rian obviously he has a demon in him.. MYSTERY SOLVED
gotica orrr RICKY GOLDSWORTH'S back
Ella Kim
Yes!!
we need an episode on the *Hash Slinging Slasher*
already solved, it was nosferatu all along
FLUXX840 It was Nosferatu you dummy!
That would be an awesome April fools video
Nosferatu is a cover-up
Honestly I would be so spooked
"tantalizing" describes something desirable that's just out of reach, named for Tantalus in greek mythology
The myth where Tantalus could see food and water but cannot reach it to eat or drink? I haven't read Greek mythology explicitly but I have read the Percy Jackson series lol thanks for making me remember it. Have a great day!
so Shane was closer to its meaning than Ryan was
"Everyone dies. You, maybe, sooner than other."
Okay Ryan's being creepy.
"I'd like to live... forever...."
Okay SHANE'S being creepy.
Polonium 210 actually looks similar to copper or tanned bronze in a solid state, but ground up it looks almost exactly like a lump or sugar or salt.
DJ BassMic this explains why he didn't noticed
It's easy to mix up sugar and salt....and radioactive poison....good to know
So if you’re doing crack you could easily poison someone. Or you’re a drug dealer.
And in liquid form it looks like a water
Wait so was the cook actually contacted to put poison in the food and the cook was like "yeah no, can't do that," but didn't bother to report this to the police or to warn Litvenenko he was going to get poisoned??
Les Coronado probably because he feared for his life and the lives of his loved ones.
The cook was not a fool. He knew that he and all his family would be killed
They're friends and he was loyal to the Russian government, I guess.
If the same guy who invaded a country and threatened nuclear war is the same guy accused of murdering someone critical of him, the case...is...closed.
Yeah I would say it is 1000% closed 😂🙄
That is propaganda created by the West, but he did kill Alexander.
@@melisentiapheiffer3034 So it's "western propaganda" that he invaded Ukraine and threatened nuclear warheads? I didn't know Putin himself creates western propaganda.
@@emeliem3190 😂
“Oozelong tea” that’s a good one, Shane. Good job. 😂
I loved how he laughed over his own joke, I do that too so glad I am not the only one. In his defense Oozelong tea is pretty funny.
As an Asian that drinks oolong frequently, I loved it lol
Dont encourage him
This it the most solved “Unsolved” ever
I legitimately thought when clicking on this video , “Russia is going to kill them for doing this video.” Then Shane says the same thing. Stay safe my friends.
Erin Amy Russia would have had to kill all those that made a TV movie or used it in their tv shows.
well that fortress of solitude bit didn’t age well did it
we
You guys should definitely do the death of Princess Diana!! I feel like so many theories are out there about what really happened like if she was murdered. Great video as always!!!
OMG THAT WOULD BE SO GOOD! IM PRETTY SURE THE ROYAL FAMILY MURDERED HER. This murder was so sad :(
She was murdered I'm pretty sure. Didn't they also then go and do recent investigations? Our usernames are so similar. LMAO
i think we all know john mulaney was the true murderer
Ang S. To be honest, I'm surprised they haven't done her case yet!
I mean her death isn’t really ‘unsolved’, it’s been ruled as an accident. It’s more of a conspiracy theory than anything else
Is it a bird?
A plane?
*NO*
Its rootin tootin Vladimir Putin
WHY AM I LAUGHING SO HARD AT THIS
LMAO😂
otaku TV LMFAOOOOOOOO
My stepdads cousin has a Vladimir putin dog toy thing and that's exactly what he named it.
This literally made me laugh out loud so hard. Thank you.
Shane's depiction of the word tantalizing is so spot on 😂😂😂
RIGHT?!
Ryan: "You don't think that the British government would endanger their own citizens like that."
British Prime Minister on Covid: "Let the bodies pile up."
“Let’s all have a party at number ten as everyone else is sacrificed for the economy huzzah”
Agreed, but I don’t think we’ve ever had a government quite like this one.
Pathetic comparison. You’re seriously comparing a ʟᴇɢɪᴛ serial killer with someone you don’t agree with politically being irresponsible? Mind you - all the guests of the party were there of ᴛʜᴇɪʀ ᴏᴡɴ ғʀᴇᴇ ᴡɪʟʟ. But congrats - you managed to win the “petty w/o arguments” Labour Party member award… :)
@@emeliem3190 I mean, this video wasn't about a serial killer (legit or otherwise) and I mentioned nothing about parties as it didn't relate to the quote so thanks for trying but better luck on the next Bojo-critical comment you decide you're outraged with. 🙂
FOR THE POSTMORTEM: Will you guys ever let shane present a unsolved case? I feel like he would have a weird one
like the ppl in France who danced till they died
Let’s get Shane to host the entire episode it would be amazing
Yas
JoAl Tralko thats what I was thinking
Genius
Dear Buzzfeed Unsolved,
Please do an episode on the Lake Bodom murders. They... they're... _strange_ ...
Fun fact, I went camping at that lake last week
How... did you italicize that?
@@p_eppermint you italicize using underscores!! _hi_ !!
Thanks~
p__erpetual _like this?_
It's crazy how all this happened 10 year or less ago. I hope they do more modern crimes like this
I'm pretty sure that 2006 wasn't "10 years or less ago".
It was 12 years ago
Many of the investigations took place after 2006, though guys. He probably meant the investigations themselves not the deaths.
I remember this, it happened in Salisbury. For all the exiled wealthy Russians living in the UK, over 40 of them have died on UK soil ‘suspiciously’
no, that was a different time!! his name was sergei skripal and his daughter yulia in 2018 in salisbury
this happened in london
@@graceannamaria Yes, he was sent by the British intelligence services
nah nah the Salisbury one was the novichok poisoning (they survived, actually!), and is the reason i’m not going to zizzis there
@@poisonedkilljoy9304, they survived, but Dawn Sturgiss did not, and tow other people almost died.
It would be crazy that this happened just 12 years ago if a Russian poisoning hadn’t JUST happened again earlier this year. It’s like a bloody film.
That's what I thought this video was going to be about. I was just like "isnt this still a bit controversial to make this kind of video on?"
I thought it was the one that recently happened and was just kinda like "Why?"
σмg gσт 666 ℓιкєѕ
What does this say?
DrShocktopus So far as I can tell, your statement is not true at all, and in fact, during the investigation, the specific isotope used to kill him was traced back to a Russian reactor by physicist Norman Dombey. Can you provide links to back up your assertion?
Haven’t watched it all but..we know it’s good.
ofc!
we all know...
...the case remains *unsolved*
Nightmare Files I love your channel. To me it is one of the hidden gems of TH-cam.
Nightmare Files I can’t like it because it’s at 969
Best part of Friday tbh
ashlen i
its already (barely) saturday where i live and i was getting so antsy since it took so long to be released from my perspective hahaha
It's 6:29 am here at Philippines :(
ashlen traitor to mother Russia.
Nathalie Noveno omg!!! have a good day, then :-D
Litvinenko: a man who solved his own murder
Navalny: hold my beer
I live and Russia and I confirm it was Putin.
That's a joke, FSB, please, don't arrest me
nonbinary royalty they won’t, they’ll just kill you
@Florides BB you clearly don't know Russia lmao
@burnhuman_2 nah don't think so, do you all really think Russia is some kind of a weird alien place living without laws?
Arrest is the last thing you have to worry about Because they were arrest you they would kill you
See you @ the gulag.
Why did these guys expect to find a chef that would poison food? Did they just flip through the yellow pages calling every restaurant in town trying to find a murderous chef??? #boogaraguitara #longlivethehotdaga
Allie Labrecque and why did they let the chef go? He could have told someone about what he was asked
Great questions...
It is likely that this was no ordinary chef and I'm pretty sure the FSB would have been able to contact a local (russian) chef and kindly ask him to help out with an order, possibly an order by the President.
Most likely this person was someone who was smart enough to not involve himself in this matter and who knew not to speak about his orders given by the russians because if he did...well, he would have gotten burned.
I literally count down the days until a new episode! you guys should do an episode finale that’s like 40 minutes long.
abby kennedy traitor to mother Russia.
abby kennedy NO FINALES
I wouldn't complain tbh 😂
Hopefully there will be no finales
Watching this while everything's going on in Russia-Ukraine is so.... surreal
Ideas for next episodes:
The Beaumont children in Australia
Flight MH370
Madeline McCann
Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders
Jemify Digest yes yes yes
And do one on Caylee Anthony disappearance and murder!
Jemify Digest Maddie McGann!!!!!!!! So ready
Destiny Marie in the 1970s three young Girl Scouts were murdered in Oklahoma. Hope that helps 🙂
odd ode 👏👏
For the postmortem: NOT A QUESTION BUT PLEASE LET SHANE EXPLAIN THE PEOPLE IN FRANCE WHO DANCED TILL THE DIED! Oh and love you guys! #shaniac #OnlyAboogaraOnTheWeekends
“Do you want some ooz-long tea?”
England officially has a terrible track record for protecting Russian defectors against assassins.
Tiger H. Lore don't say about a city like that
Livin MƏMƏ too late.
The most impressive part of this video is the fact that Ryan correctly pronounced all the Russian names
But can't pronounce "Putin."
@@judithanne1234Poo-din
IF SHANE AND RYAN DONT COME OUT WITH ANOTHER UNSOLVED EPISODE NEXT WEEK BLAME THE KGB
well the videos are all pre-recorded, they have the entire season already.
DADWC last season then 😂
It is FSB now. But for real, Russian citizens are the only one that suffer from Russian government. So no worries for Shane and Ryan.
Technically it’s the FSB, though the KGB technically exists in Belarus so you’re not 100% wrong. They’re a strong ally of Russia so they could, in theory, kill them because Russia could suggest they do that. That is of course, if Russia did poising Litvinenko. Poor guy either way. What a nasty way to go.
I'm from the UK I was 8 when he was killed I remember seeing him on the news I've always wondered why he was killed, thanks guys for doing uk based content
Daniel Gower I was about 9 when I saw this on the tv. Spooked me out, especially when they showed photos of him lying in the bed sick. In comparison to his photo of him when he’s well, honestly it’s hard to believe it’s the same man. Even I noticed that when I was 9. Also it is good to see UK content on the channel. Probably my fave case they’ve covered and I thought it was well done. Keep up the good work lads 👍🏻
I was 9 months old 🤭
I was 11 and can't believe I remember this so vividly.
I was -3 months old lol
It's weird re-watching this now lol
you would think that the chef might try to tip the guy off though? like "uh hey, those two shady guys just tried to pay me to poison you, watch out bro"????
Genevieve Barnes then he puts himself at risk to get hurt/killed by them
They would’ve killed the chef if he snitched
They said the chef wasn't there.
Snitches get stitches...or just oozelong tea
tessa marie oozelong tea 😂😂
7:46 I'm studying Chemistry, and even though I'm an undergraduate, I can say that it would definetly not glow. However, it may have tasted metalic or smeeled odd, maybe even the tea would look to be very hot/steamy, more then a usual cup of tea; like a kettle that blows out alot of steam.
"We cracked it!......bye." Shane is the best.
Brandy Myers I read this as soon as he said it 😂
"At this point I'd turn my whole house into a panic room. A panic house. It would be a good sequel" :D :D
"we don't know who spilled the tea - this will remain...unsolved"
Shane was so relatable in this episode “just watch the universe implode”
A little bit of a Greek story for ya; Tantalus was invited to Olympus by the gods for a feast. He asked to bring some ambrosia and nectar (food and drink of the gods) home to study it, but they refused. He invitd them to his home for food sometime aftr, and served them a soup that had the chopped up remains of his children in it. When they realized, they killed him and sentenced him to the fields of punishment; he would stand in a lake, a fruit tree over his head. When he tried to grab a fruit, the tree would move out of reach; when he tried to get water, the water would move away from him. Thus comes the word 'tantalizing'.
Did you read that in Percy Jackson, too.
Wtf
The water moves away from him?? Why didn't he just use this as a way of getting out...
I strongly dislike the idea of the word "tantalising" coming from a myth in which children are murdered and eaten by the will of their own father. I love myths but I might have to removed that world from ye olde vocabulary
I have read this story because of PJ series horaay
talking about russia at this point in time makes it extra chilling
o m I agree, especially with the political climate in the US (idk if you’re american, don’t want to assume). I just hope the spooky bois don’t end up on Russia’s radar
jess DID U JUST ASSUME HIS/HERS NATIONALITY
@@heytherejay04 no worries, im american! and yeah, same ☹
g h but u just assumed they have a binary gender🤔🤔
THERE ARE ONLY 2 GENDERS
Craig gonna getcha.
Craig: "I'm a cashew"
It’s actually been said that he noticed the bitter taste of the tea once the two men had left - at that point it was too late anyway. Even if he’d known what he’d taken, his death was inevitable from that point. The poor guy, death by radiation poisoning is slow and excruciating
Mr Putin, if you're watching this, please tell us: are you Boogara or Shaniac?
😂😂😂
I think Putin would be a shaniac
I have trouble imagining Putin believing in ghosts.
Realistically Vladimir Putin is probably a #shaniac but I really want him to be a #boogara.
Oh definitely Shaniac. No ghost can scare Putin but in fact Putin scares ghosts.
You guys should do the suspicious Double-Murder Suicide by former WWE professional wrestler, Chris Benoit. The official ruling says that because of head blows from matches, Chris went crazy and killed his wife, son, then committed suicide. But their is much evidence saying that he was framed. For one, a text message was sent from his phone on Sunday morning, but he died Saturday night. Also, Chris had been reporting someone watching his house, outside just staring. Additionally, 14 hours before they discovered the scene, someone edited his wikipedia page, saying he won't be able to compete that night due to personal issues including the death of his wife
OOOOH This is really interestinggg~
Yes please!!
And that's how the boys got on russia's watch list.
All hail the watcher
*rises hand nonchalantly* all hail the watcher
All hail the watcher I guess
And that's how the boys got on Russias watch list.
And thats how the boys got on the Russian watchers watch list
"You didn't poison this did you?"
"I wish I did now"
God I love their chemistry. So natural.
I remember reading a Time article about this when it happened, which led to a couple years where I was terrified of being poisoned by FSB agents. Though as a teenager in Michigan who had no intel on anything involving Russia, I was probably pretty low on their "to do" list.
literally me
ayyyy im from michigann
wow look at us Michiganders bonding
I feel like I'm going to be poisoned just for watching this haha
Santiago crazy right? 😂
Shane's joke about the "ooze-long" tea and his reference to the Keystone Cops (which are from the silent movie era, btw) just confirms in my mind that Shane is either from the past, or he's secretly youthful forever and he's actually 120 years old! Which I'm totally okay with :)
"What is this, ooze-long tea?"
Shane Madej, 2018.
😂 #Shaniacs 😂
I'm still laughing at this (slow clap) "I see what you did there sir. Well played! Well played."
"i am also sure that they did this with the intention of poisoning mr. litvinenko"
why else would you put radioactive isotopes in someones tea? as a birthday present? 💀
"We've cracked it...bye"
Please do an episode about ''lake bodom murders'' that happened in Finland in 1960! Ps. it's weird.
yassssss
Or the Ulvila murder. It has a lots of twists and turns.
LazyTube YES!
LazyTube idk what that is but i'd watch that
Extra fun times for Ryan trying to pronounce Finnish names lmao.
Question: Ryan, if you were to poison Shane, what would you use? And Shane, if you were to poison Ryan, what would you use?? Looking forward to a response. Thanks.
20:25 - "I guess I know where I'm *Putin* my money on this one.. "
Can't believe Ryan didn't catch that 🤦🏻
10:03 this is why we need a podcast with these two talking about the universe and everything actually
Some Investigations you guys could look into:
The Dancing Plague of Strasbourg
The Beast of Bodmin Moor
Overtoun Bridge
Ghost Ship: The Mary Celeste
Area 51
The Flannan Isles Lighthouse Disappearances
Circleville Letters
The Disappearance Of Malaysians Airlines Flight 370
Hope this helps! Some are Paranormal, some aren't!
Mary Celeste is one of my favourite cases !!
Ornate AJ, lol they've done 3 of these all ready
Area 51 pls
Lake Bodom
Upd8ed - what 3?
Is it just me or is Ryan’s voice EXTREMELYYYY satisfying? Like...wow
In my radiochemistry class, we had a homework assignment which involved comparing the radiation dose he had absorbed with the background dose experienced by the average person and the deadly dose. It is astonishing.
Also note how heavy metal toxicity wasn’t mentioned. I’d hazard a guess that he would not be alive even if we took the damaging effects of that high a dose of radiation out of the equation.
Risky video to make, especially considering the most recent event earlier this year, the whole of England still kind of on edge about it... but none the less it was a very interesting video
Can you enlighten me? I don't know, or at least remember, what you're referring to.
Me too, what the hell happened in England this year?
I assume they're talking about the novichok poisoning of Sergei Skripal (former Russian spy)and his daughter, Yulia in Salisbury. More recently, another two people were poisoned by novichok in Amesbury, two normal British citizens of which one died.
Ama Weerakkody Is novichok radiation poisoning? I'm not a native speaker, so I didn't know of that word.
Also, thanks for the information! I didn't hear of either of those incidents, maybe because they weren't so heavily broadcasted in my country.
novichok is the nerve agent the boys mentioned in the video of the assassination that occurred earlier this year. it's not a radiation-type poison. it is however known to be used almost exclusively by the fsb and other russian agencies.
For the post mortem:
As someone who lives in the UK quite close to Salisbury ( where the two most recent poisonings of ex Russian spies have happened) there has been much talk of the three events being connected, do you believe they are?
Shane laughing at his own jokes is such a *MOOD🙌🏼*
I honestly can't believe Lugovoy and Kovtun are still at large seriously they should be on watch list in the world with a massive bounty on their heads
