- Who was Kaspar Hauser? His life is a complete mystery, probably lost to time forever. Only a small portion of his life is known for a fact, so let's take a look.
"Kaspar Hauser (1812? - 17 December 1833) was a German youth who claimed to have grown up in the total isolation of a darkened cell. Hauser's claims, and his subsequent death by stabbing, sparked much debate and controversy. Theories propounded at the time identified him as the grand ducal House of Baden, hidden away because of royal intrigue. These opinions may or may not have been documented by later investigations. Other theories proposed that Hauser had been a fraud."

Hello there

Nice
You must get good crack?
Letter: Here is this boy's name and basically his entire origin.
Germany: What a mystery this is.
The problem is that it’s technically two origin story.
@@rosanirodrigues557
Yeah, but one of them was a very clear letter and the other was told by someone who could barely speak.
as a german myself I can confirm that this is accurate
@@WhaleManMan What letter was clear? The one written from his "mom"?
I am German, recently finished high school and we used to sing a quite popular song about the story back in middle school. I have always found this mystery quite intriguing!
Have you ever heard of Martin Guerre? A French Basque man goes off to war then someone comes home impersonating him, even fools the guy's wife. Then there's a court case where the imposter almost gets off scot free until the real Martin Guerre walks in like it's a court drama. Great story.
This sounds like the story in the ‘93 movie- Sommersby also.
What the fuck was going on in XIX century Europe?
It sounds like Seymour skinner, or should I say Armin Tamzarian
Sounds like the plot to Mad Men. Shit, it is the plot to Mad Men.

This guy deserves a tv show, love his humor. Dark and honest sprinkled with charming sarcasm lol
A tv show would be AWESOME!!!
i agree
Obviously Qixr sock account
Agree
TV? What are you? A boomer? (I actually agree with you, great content)
You left out what I think is the most interesting part, they did DNA tests on his blood pretty recently, and they found that he had no relationship with the royal family, BUT they redid it with a different blood sample from a different place, and it was a 95% match to a direct living relative of the royal family, meaning that either him or his murderer was possibly royal
How is that even possible?
Nah the first test SpiegelTv did was on the underpants from the museum in ansbach but those had been tampered with and possibly stained with pigs blood, the second test was conducted by terra x I believe and they tested the hair that was found in his toy box and other personal items and this tests results concluded that kaspars DNA appears to only have one abnormality when compared to the royals DNA
which place
@@thedogeregular7849 Forensic Evidence at the University of Münster. The result was not conclusive; could be one of the Badens, or could be some other German, as it was close enough to the typical mtDNA in the population.
@@artembolshakov3901 cool
Suppose Casper was just some homeless, lonely kid who was desperate to be seen. If that were the case, then he got exactly what he wanted
Yep. I'd say that you got the attention you wanted if the phrase "most historians consider..." is used 200 years later in discussions about your life.
casper with a k kasper
Kasper: (Thinking) This letter I wrote is sure to get the Calvary Captain's trust. He's just gotta let me join!
Calvary Captain: Hanging it is.
Just based on the information in this video (I haven't done further research on his life myself), I very strongly suspect he had Borderline Personality Disorder, or a closely related psychological disorder or combination of disorders.
Having apparently escaped from abusive and neglectful parents (the main risk factors for developing BPD are abusive and/or neglectful parenting, as well as child s***** abuse), difficulty with forming a concrete identity for himself, melodramatic behavior self-sabotaging his relationships with caregivers and other people, severe self-harm, and apparently ludicrous claims that people were trying to kill him (likely either compulsive lying or paranoid delusions; both of which are common though far from universal with people with BPD), it all matches up WAY too well for me to believe that he didn't have either BPD or a related condition (or combination of conditions) with similar symptoms, ex. Histronic or Schizotypal Personal Disorder.
Kaspar Hauser's case completely baffles me. His supposed background doesn't make much sense, and that he was murdered by unknown people is even weirder
@Boeing B-52 Stratofortress yeah
I am of thought that it was most likely a con by Hauser himself.
Even more amazing how he buried himself inside the same box that he started out in. Guy was actually pretty freakin' mazing!
Apparently the blood on the underwear isn't his blood a second DNA analysis found. And the best part is the new DNA analysis has just one position of with the royal bloodline and seems to be pretty possible that his story is true. On the other side they found the two prisons of Caspar. First one was under cultural sight laws and could not be opened until they got special permission. Which was great because nobody could break open the wall to the room until then so they were the first to find the painting of a horse on the wall. In the second prison the new owner of the castle found a wooden horse which Casper mentioned a lot. For the rest it seems the English guy was gay and Casper not really but maybe a bit confused over him. So I get it you life for 16 years in a dark room then a nice guy comes along to help you out and suddenly he drops his pants, no wonder it didnt work out between them ;P

Redditors: wholesome 100 relatable
I am thinking about dropping out of school to focus on my career as a star on TH-cam. I already make a lot of money on TH-cam. School bores me so much. I need more opinions and since I don't have any friends, I gotta ask you, aper
@@AxxLAfriku sounds like a bad idea but ok
@@AxxLAfriku I don't think it would work out very well, I hate to tell you. I think that if school bores you so much (I'm assuming you're in college) you should do some more classes that you like, drop out of classes that you hate, and if school isn't that important to you and you don't really have a plan for life, join the military or join an officer's school. If you don't have friends and don't feel good about your life, the military can give you a purpose. But you do you, what am I to tell you what to do, this is a free country and you should do what makes you happy. Just don't rely on youtube becoming your source of income.
@@AxxLAfriku I wouldn’t drop out but if you’re making money than I would suggest keep doing TH-cam
@@alexk9642 you know he is just advertising his channel
You forgot to mention that Kasper Hauser is literally one of the most psychologically important subject of isolated growing up. You'll find him in every psychology student book.
and i thought that is what he was famous for, even though i never looked into the case at all. but that's all i ever heard of him. i didn't know any of this royal family stuff before.
What about Genie?
I’ve taken multiple psychology (and some psychiatry) courses, and his name has never come up.
"You'll find him in every psychology student book."

I admire Kaspar for one reason. Nobody will be discussing *me* two hundred years after I am gone.
well, there are certain ways to ensure you will be remembered, but not in a good way.
Bro Jesus is still popular 1990 years after he died, and others even longer.

@Egg T ?
The man holding the boy didn't kill him cause he had no stomach for it. That's why he only taught him, "I want to be a calvary man." If you want someone to die then making them one of the boys running directly at the people shooting at you is a pretty good 1. And pretty guilt free for a bonus.
Cavalry ride, infantry run.
Gotta' say Qxir, you have a talent for wrapping up a story with those poetic little endings.
I'm severely disappointed that Werner Herzog's "The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser" was never mentioned in this video.
One of the greatest of all time.
One of his best. That and Stroyzek are the saddest movies I've ever seen

Not the best quote
Ya know what I love? I love that Qxir is telling obscure stories that no one else is telling on TH-cam. Sure, it’s often dark or taboo... and just maybe... it’s not even 100% true (gasp!). But it’s very original content. A rare find these days. Thanks for sharing, brother. Keep ‘em coming.
Man, it's amazing that you could just... disappear back then. I kind of wish we could still do that nowadays.
Oh, you can.

As Huck Finn once said, any scammer posing as royalty is basically the same as actual royalty

@Scumfuck McDoucheface pardon?
@Scumfuck McDoucheface give it to me baby!

Honestly, I was expecting a story about some poor abused youth, but the way qixr wrapped it up made it a lighthearted tale!
For real though, stuff like this has actually happened, and those kids never get better. They never develop basic social skills or language because they're not able to. It's just too late.
"Try it yourself.." You absolutely crack me up every damn video.
"I want to tell you meself where I come"
Is it a sock? I bet it's a sock.
Or a Davey Crockett hat.
@@oldbatwit5102 hey .. you leave David Crockett out of this .. he was a good man .. do your research on him .. when Andrew Jackson (the guy on the $20) tried to pass the "Indian Relocation act" (you know the death march known as The Trail of Tears basically Jackson proposed a bill in congress to steal Indian land and send them on a death march to Oklahoma a legal genocide ) David Crockett opposed him and the bill and when it passed he stood up in congress and told them all "Leave those people alone you have done enough to them, you may all go to hell, I am going to Texas"
David Crockett stood up for my ancestors (the Cherokee) and left a corrupt government and paid with his life for it trying to make a better life for him his family and my ancestors ..
leave him and his silly hat out of this ..
What about getting a DNA sample from his remains and see if there any present day ancestors. Might amount to nothing but it would certainly rule out any noble origins.
I remember them actually doing this. First they took blood from the underwear he was wearing during the attack and it didn’t match any modern day descendants of the royal family. Then they used mitochondrial dna which matched with one of the descendants. Now we have to figure out which one is Casper’s very dna.
@@normiewhodrawsonpaper4580 They did this already and it is clear now that they have the right DNA from Caspar as the material comes from two different and unrelated sources. The blood on the underwear is not his blood. The second thing they found is that the DNA code has just one position different then the descendance of the bloodline in question. So it seems like his story was actually true. If you can speak german here in an interesting documentary of the second DNA analysis. "Kaspar Hauser - Das Rätsel seiner Zeit (1/4)"
@@notlisted5876 It is true that his DNA was quite similar to a descendant of the family, Astrid von Medinger, but 'the relatively high similarity by no means proves the alleged relationship, as the "Hauser samples" showed a pattern amongst the German population.'.
Sorry, it really didn't prove anything.
People say they feel like it but he really had no identify.
Like SpongeBob that one time
Trust you'll keep this channel up and running for long time to come. Always something to make one stop and think for a moment. 👍
Sociopaths usually harm themselves as a way to obtain attention, and sometimes they cross the line and kill themselves.
That sounds much more like Histrionic Personality Disorder than Anti-Social Personality Disorder. HPD is defined primarily by extreme attention-seeking.
I have been waiting for the next one!

This channel deserves millions of subscribers. I love every video I've seen here. 💜 truly underrated 100%
I swear my life at this point is me just enduring things while waiting for the next Qxir upload
I am 3 months before my design master thesis and would not be able to write a mirrored version of any letter what so ever xD
It's nice to see that this channel is picking up. I remember watching this guy 2 years ago, and I think he only had like 50,000 subs. The first big video I remember was the killdozer. I had heard of that story before, but your take on it was very good.
really was not expecting the conclusion to be "Yeah he was horribly abused for his whole life, but he was kinda a dick, so it was probably his fault"
Compartmentalism or like split personality. The hitman and the target.
Knowing some of the insane Things Royals and Aristocracy did with unwanted children or even Just unruly children, and Just the insane political Power Plays they engaged in, i think the Idea that He was a "lost" royal heir is entirely plausible.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
@John Jones lmao
Ask any doctor: He would have died early if he’d lived on water and bread alone and without daylight.

I'm from Nuremberg, Germany and I would've never thought to hear about Nuremberg on this Channel and also I didn't know this story!
I’ve heard this story before but as usual qxir did it best
Thanks for the upload I was legit having withdrawals. Loving these stupid little videos more than anything else rn dawgg 😊
They’re just 10 pound poms where we come from, heaps of them.
I love the way you tell stories man
If you've not already subscribed you should do it now. This channel honestly deserves it. The work done in these videos really speaks for itself. 💚
It's a little sad when americans see Nuremberg and can only think of that one time in history and not about the rich story of that almost 1000 year old city that once was the political centre for german kings for centuries.
Greetings from Nuremberg. Fun fact, I live just a 400 meters walk away from Kaspar-Hauser- Platz. A small Square in Nuremberg named after him.
Oh my God I love you Qxir Keep making videos
fun fact: Biting off your finger would require about the same force as biting off a carrot. The only reason it seems harder is our brain's self-preservation mechanism (the same mechanism you mentionned that would not let us stab ourselves)

At 7:03 you missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take a jab at the scots.
Also and on a completely different note, the way his case presents is EXACTLY like a case of comorbid depression and mania-oriented bipolar disorder I was heavily involved with for most of a decade. Fabrication, acting out, self harm mixing into the fabrication, difficulties with learning and other skills in the exact manner you described; it's eerily similar. That's an armchair comparison, but I did literally have 7 years of close parallel to draw from. Interesting thing.
Dude I’ve been watching you for three years and now and your vids are getting very good and the writing is very good, congrats and keep up the good work
