m.th-cam.com/video/VyboBHIutGQ/w-d-xo.html I am trying to find someone to make a video about this slideshow published on the London Telegraph's website back in 2009. There is some truly bizarre factors and coincidence in the story including a hidden message in hexadecimal and the fact that there was no author credited with it's creation. Thanks for the video 😊, awesome as always.
Considering he started doing this in the Nederlands right after WWII: the dreams, interest in spiritualism, and self harm might have had a lot to do with trauma from what he saw and experienced during the war. It sounds a lot like some form of Survivor's Guilt where he keeps harming himself until eventually dying.
That's possible. Enough shit happened here during the war, even if there were little actual battles. Especially if he was in one of the parts that were hit hard by the starvation winter.
@@zal7782 The Netherlands tried to stay neutral during WW2. But Germany invaded either way, bombing Rotterdam flat to force us into capitulation. It was WW1 where it remained neutral.
Actually, there would be much more to tell about him. For example, the autopsy report shows that many of his organs, including the heart, were totally scarred. Moreover, the needle was surgically removed after Mirin Dajo failed to dematerialize it. However, the doctors could not sew up the wound as quickly as it closed on its own. I met an old woman who often traveled with him at that time. She administered his estate, including the film recordings. He was a real star at that time because of his shows in Switzerland and many newspapers reported about him. If you are interested, I have many more stories about him, which would certainly fit your wacky way of telling ;)
You ever hear of "Iron Mike" Malloy? He was a homeless man during the great depression. A small group of bar owners tricked him into signing a life insurance agreement that made them the beneficiaries. They tried poisoning him with free alcohol. Unfortunately for the poor bar owners, Mike was Irish. They gave him enough alcohol to kill several men every day to the point they wouldn't be able to pay back the costs. They got him intoxicated and doused his clothes in cold water to kill him via hypothermia. He lived. They gave him wood alcohol. He lived. They gave him a sandwich with metal shavings. He lived. They gave him antifreeze to drink. He thought it tasted better than anything he'd ever had. They hit him with a f*cking car. He walked into their bar a few days later and could use a drink. Unfortunately, the bar owners were eventually able to kill him with gas fumes and gunshots. This led to everyone involved being arrested and convicted. They never got the life insurance from the company. It was actually publicly known who he was and how he couldn't die. Some reports claim he had pneumonia. If this was true, it's irrelevant. Pff. As though some petty mortal disease can kill "Iron Mike"
@@kingvendrick8919 I don't think there's one, but I know he deleted a lot of his older content a while ago. If there was a video, I must not have seen his channel in time.

About four days ago I stepped on a sewing needle and it stuck so completely inside my heel that I couldn't see it anymore. It hurt pretty bad but I didn't know anything was still stuck in there because I couldn't see it at all and unless I put all my weight on the heel it didn't hurt too bad. There was no blood at all I limped around for a few days in pain until last night after I got out of the shower and inspected it. The tip had worked it's way to the surface and I used tweezers, to my surprise, to pull out an entire sewing needle! Props to this guy, puncture wounds hurt! Also, I guess now I know I can repeat the trick without as much pain.
What the fuck did I just read hahahah I mean. I'm glad it worked out for you. But go to the hospital the next time. Lmao. If you're so unconcerned, just go to the medical aid unit when they open, instead of emergency. Foot puncture wounds are notorious for severe infections like tetanus. Good god. Did you just not realize you had the needle in your foot?? Edit: OP has edited to clarify, no, they did not realize there was a whole needle inside their foot lmao
@@rh4993 Idk bout upset, but I often find it tedious how people ask for likes, subscribes, memberships, etc., we all already know how to do that stuff if we are inclined. The ones I do like however are when they make a bit out of it, like Qxir!
Dude I was about to have a handful of needles for my birthday dinner. You might’ve just save my life brother. I wouldn’t have had a clue if it weren’t for this video, so I truly, genuinely, owe you my life.

Jesus is the only way. We have all sinned and deserve Hell. Sins that may seem small in our eyes are big in God's and are worthy of Hell, such as lying lusting and stealing. But if we repent and trust only in Jesus, he is faithful and will save us from Hell and give us eternal life in Heaven. Trust in Jesus! John 3:16 Romans 6:23❤😊❤

I knew James Randi and once he and his magician friends commented during a get together, was "what you think is real, often isn't, and what you think is faked, is real." Like yes that man is eating a light bulb. Thank you for a great explanation as magicians are often very hush hush, sadly the internet has opened up the secrets to everyone.

Since you released this, I have spent the last 4 days looking through all your Tales From The Bottle videos and I just wanted to say thank you for all the great videos. I will now watch the rest of your videos and wait in excited anticipation for your next video!
@@god4489 Do you genuinely think I meant that I watched them all in a row? I watched them on my commute to and from work. The playlist is not that long, my guy. Why are you so angry at me showing support to this guy 2 years ago?
First guess is that it's the same way David Blaine does. He avoids anything major, and passes it through the same scar tissue each time sort of like a piercing.
@@greenoftreeblackofblue6625 In all those rapier duels it was very, very hard to get killed. What people died from were infections a few days or weeks later.
This goes to show something i've been noticing for a while now we as human are such fragile beings but at the same time not?! there is people who will get shoot clear on the head and walk it off like nothing but then some folk will die to sneezing or eating a sanchwich its just the strangest thing...
Wow! A rare moment that I can use my own experience to inform other curious viewers! So fun story, I do this exact thing on a smaller scale. Has anyone seen the David Blaine special where he stabs an ice pick through his hand? If you haven't you should take a look. Made Kanye West sick to his stomach. Pretty funny. Anyways, as you might expect, David doesn't just prepare for his stunts alone! He has a team of incredible helpers who aid him in safely preparing for a stunt such as stabbing himself through the hand. It just so happens that I worked with the person who taught David how to push an ice pick through his hand! Pretty crazy right? Basically what happens is you begin with a very small needle such as an acupuncture needle. You push the needle safely through your hand every day for years on end in order to build up scar tissue at that exact spot. Over the years, you move up to larger needles as your scar tissue is built up. The scar tissue allows you to puncture your skin without bleeding (it's a bit more in depth than just finding a fine point like QXIR states. It takes years of building up scar tissue.). When I used to perform often (before COVID), I had so much scar tissue on my hand, that I could see and point out the exact spot where I had to puncture my skin. Super cool stuff! It's traditionally called geek magic within the community. Why? I have no idea.
Wait a minute... so the reason why he was able to survive being stabbed was because he was stabbed carefully a number of times before and built up an immunity to it? My guy literally did "ingest small amounts of poison to build up a resistance" trick, but with goddamn swords? That's insane.
I find your drawings super adorable to the point I wanna hug most of them, but even then, the drawing of his skin stretching as the sword was put in him made me squeal in horror. I can't even begin to imagine how bad it would've felt when you watched the recording of it. I appreciate the hardwork that you do for us, thanks for the great video, keep it up
Just watched the film of Dajo being pierced with the sword. He seemed to be sweating quite a bit which would indicate some kind of stress, either from the pain or from concentrating hard enough to ignore the pain. Cool trick which turned out not to be a trick at all.
Thank you for making this info widespread, I’ve been telling people about this for years now and they don’t believe me at first until I show them the vid of him getting impaled
The gimmick sword contraption at the 1:20 mark I actually got out of a gumball machine in the early 90s. It fit around your finger, and came with this little "sword". I thought it was the coolest thing at the time. I really did fool a lot of my friends.
I was literally just rewatching the bomb video you just did and was wondering when you were gonna upload again. Well I guess I got my answer, thanks for the great videos as always.
Sword is bendy in the stabbed assistant trick but still sharp for the illusion that it could stab or cut skin deeply but chances are you would only need stitches although I did hear about a guy severing his tendon in his middle finger when he was holding the blade in the inspection of the bluff sword
I deliberately stepped on a LEGO barefoot once. I was going to do it again for money but I guess my screaming like a banshee scared everyone off. Oh well, maybe I'll eat my granny's pin cushion.
Because we have the best group of weirdos for friends, two of them performed a sideshow skit at our wedding reception with various things swallowed, some bondage demonstrations and other stage magic. It was fantastic! I recommend this for anyone because its much better than the terrible jokes your friends and in-laws will be telling in their speeches. Two people in lingerie eating leaches will always top your drunken relatives remembrances of how stupid you where in grade school.
Another thing that could have “taken away” his pain is a rare condition called CIPA which affects pain sensing nerves. Although i don’t know when this person was alive, so i don’t know if doctors had named it yet
A guy I know once swallowed a bunch of .22 caliber bullets on a dare. Once the alcohol wore off and he decided to call poison control, they just hung up on him. He survived. When he went to the bathroom, several solid "clink" sounds could be heard through the door. I guess the moral of the story is that popping bullets like they're Tylenol is fine, but swallowing needles is not.
I remember seeing a documentary about this man and in the doc it said that he had gone to India to get surgery performed so that he could pass these swords through his body.
I started to hear those voices as a child but ignored them just as i ignored my parents teachers and any one else who told me to do things I didn`t want to do.
@@athsmooth2171Well, it says “PROFESSIONAL Wrestling”. So, there’s your type of wrestling. There is no such thing as legit “Professional Wrestling” (legit meaning an actual Shoot fight)
He said for years that a spirit kept him safe as part of a deal he made. The day before his death he told numerous friends that the spirit was no longer in him and he questioned if he would survive
I was considering listing to the voices telling me to buy a channel membership but qxir said not to so I'm going to listen to the voice of reason and save my money...
I had to find the video of him being pierced. To my ancient eyes, I was born in 1958 when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth, the videos didn't seem all that graphic, but then the nightly news of the Vietnam War might have jaded me to impalements. The Xray that I found of him definitely showed the sword going through his body. The theory has it that he had to have lived for some time with a rod being slowly inserted into his body, deeper every few days until it formed a fistula, the same thing as the hole created by an ear piercing, and left there until shortly before a performance to keep the hole from closing up, just like a pierced ear, tongue, nipple, navel, labia, glans(OUCH) or any other part of the body.
Me watching and commenting on afew old videos waiting for new ones too feed my curiosity while ignoring my school work here now debating on buying a membership-
Absolute NO word of a lie!!. I had a rather insane acquaintance about 20’years ago.. who swallowed a whole bunch of dried pine needles and some ink!!… (as he wanted internal tattoos)… seriously!. (I’m a tattoo artist.. and he was living on my couch at the time).. bloody FREAK!.. (he didn’t die… from that). But yeah… people DO swallow weird stuff for strange reasons!..
Hey Qxir so I after watching this video while cuddling with my girlfriend (we watch all your content together!) she shared this story with me about how she was over at her parents a while back while that old show Tosh.0 happened to be on the television. He was showing some footage of some asian dudes doing this exact stuff and it did indeed traumatize her a little, and of course Daniel Tosh being the inconsiderate prick he is, never bothered to explain wtf was going on. Now that she's seen your explanation for how this shit works, she finally has some closure on the whole affair. So thank you for helping my girlfriend work through the trauma of accidentally seeing Daniel Tosh
Qxir, have you ever thought about doing a video on the Ghost Ship fire in Oakland CA? I would very much enjoy seeing a video of that incident through your eyes and talents.
This man isn't stab proof he's stab ambivalent. If he were stab proof he would be impervious to stab. This video was named by the same people who "water-proofed" your watch up to "30 meters".

You ever hear of "Iron Mike" Malloy? He was a homeless man during the great depression. A small group of bar owners tricked him into signing a life insurance agreement that made them the beneficiaries. They tried poisoning him with free alcohol. Unfortunately for the poor bar owners, Mike was Irish.
They gave him enough alcohol to kill several men every day to the point they wouldn't be able to pay back the costs.
They got him intoxicated and doused his clothes in cold water to kill him via hypothermia. He lived.
They gave him wood alcohol. He lived.
They gave him a sandwich with metal shavings. He lived.
They gave him antifreeze to drink. He thought it tasted better than anything he'd ever had.
They hit him with a f*cking car. He walked into their bar a few days later and could use a drink.

Not going to lie. Recently found your channel and binged all your videos. Love them
"Guardian Angels, turn off my pain inhibitors." - Mirin Dajo, last words, 1948
So glad to see you back!! My dark desires and morbid curiosity needed feeding 😩
Same here...
Were you trying to sound like a shitty romance novel when you posted that comment?
The only man who could survive more than 5 minutes in london
YESSSS! New video from my ABSOLUTE favorite TH-camr!
Glad to see you back man!
Your explanation and love of magic is exactly how I feel! Talent!
A tale from the bottle on Friday makes a pretty good Friday. Thank you Qixr.
Judging by the thumbnail I wouldn’t call him the”stab proof man” in fact quite the opposite, I’d call him the “stab-able man“.
You're a lifesaver! I was just about to eat this bag of needles.
What about needle flavored Lifesavers? Mmmmmm, needles.😁
The gimmick sword contraption at the 1:20 mark I actually got out of a gumball machine in the early 90s. It fit around your finger, and came with this little "sword". I thought it was the coolest thing at the time. I really did fool a lot of my friends.
2:17 "Higher Bean"
I'm magic but I trick people into thinking I'm not.
I was literally just rewatching the bomb video you just did and was wondering when you were gonna upload again. Well I guess I got my answer, thanks for the great videos as always.
Man you are brilliant, this membership bit was really funny
This is the only man who can walk thru London and feel completely secure
Oi bruv? You got a loiscence for being shanked!?
Searching for him actually gets you a video in which they thoroughly explains why and how it works.
EARLY TO HOT IRISH MANS VIDEO
:|
Love it man. Keep up the awesome content
1:48 is one of the funniest things I've seen on this channel. I audibly burst out with laughter.
Haha yea look how sad the cartoon Qxir looks, that he ate his car.
Sword is bendy in the stabbed assistant trick but still sharp for the illusion that it could stab or cut skin deeply but chances are you would only need stitches although I did hear about a guy severing his tendon in his middle finger when he was holding the blade in the inspection of the bluff sword
Love seeing a new qxir video lol your animation is hilarious
I deliberately stepped on a LEGO barefoot once. I was going to do it again for money but I guess my screaming like a banshee scared everyone off. Oh well, maybe I'll eat my granny's pin cushion.
Because we have the best group of weirdos for friends, two of them performed a sideshow skit at our wedding reception with various things swallowed, some bondage demonstrations and other stage magic. It was fantastic! I recommend this for anyone because its much better than the terrible jokes your friends and in-laws will be telling in their speeches. Two people in lingerie eating leaches will always top your drunken relatives remembrances of how stupid you where in grade school.
No thanks, sounds a bit too weird for me.
While entertaining, I'm pretty squeamish so I'd be spending that time outside getting some fresh air lol
Can i come to your wedding? 😄
Think I’d be going for a long smoke at your wedding… But what’s for you is for you.
Yeah you're definitely weird alright.
Another thing that could have “taken away” his pain is a rare condition called CIPA which affects pain sensing nerves. Although i don’t know when this person was alive, so i don’t know if doctors had named it yet
Tales from the Bottle are a true highlight to my week. Thanks Qxir!👍🏻😀
😳🗡🤺
The fun part is that this one doubles as a Final Moments! lol
Same here...
Your icon is so cute!
why did i want to watch THIS video right before going to bed 😩
Yay a Dutch person on the show!!!! Epic win!
He got speard with a sword but died from a needle.
It's like when ur legendary Pokemon gets rekt by a Magikarp.
0:37 doing math is real magic
A guy I know once swallowed a bunch of .22 caliber bullets on a dare. Once the alcohol wore off and he decided to call poison control, they just hung up on him. He survived. When he went to the bathroom, several solid "clink" sounds could be heard through the door. I guess the moral of the story is that popping bullets like they're Tylenol is fine, but swallowing needles is not.
0:25 wonder what the 3rd poster says 🤔
I remember seeing a documentary about this man and in the doc it said that he had gone to India to get surgery performed so that he could pass these swords through his body.
"so what do you do for a living?"
"I stab my freind on stage"
Sounds like a dream job
Fun fact: David Blaine performs this same trick, except it’s through his bicep because it’s way safer lol
Please more Dutch stories there are so many untold ones!
This man is the definition of letting intrusive thoughts win.
I started to hear those voices as a child but ignored them just as i ignored my parents teachers and any one else who told me to do things I didn`t want to do.
first minute in and this man just completely spoke facts
"In his Tuhrtees". Love your accent! great video :)
British evolving in 200 years be like:
😢
"hypnotized" yeah he definitely felt pain, he's just crazy
"i hate to break it to ya, but magic isn't real like professional wrestling love." 0:14
Depends on the type of wrestling
@@athsmooth2171Well, it says “PROFESSIONAL Wrestling”. So, there’s your type of wrestling.
There is no such thing as legit “Professional Wrestling” (legit meaning an actual Shoot fight)
I dont know who you are, or what in the world you do on YT, but that intro has me hooked!!
Everybody asks how he did it, but why does no one ask WHY he did it?
Excellent question ❓⁉️❔❔❔
I'll take schizofrenia for $500
Instructions unclear, ate several needles
1:55
Pyrocynical
That video was pure gold...the badass accent was just the Cherry on top!
My friends father is the ultimate magician. He went out for cigarettes 25 years ago. Still hasn't been seen.
He's highly experienced in yourdadjutsu
He said for years that a spirit kept him safe as part of a deal he made. The day before his death he told numerous friends that the spirit was no longer in him and he questioned if he would survive
Someone's back from the dead. Glad to see a new upload!
Haha, no. He's been dead since the Execution video
When I'm feeling that I suck at doing my work, I just think of these guardian angels.
It helps me feel a lot better about myself :)
5:30 that’s almost like when the devil told Jesus to jump jump off a cliff and god would save him
He wasnt lying about how disturbing the video is x.x
He really got the point of magic.
Ughhhhhh!😆
Booooo. What a dull joke
BOO!!!
@@jackrotz2139 👻
@@IntrepidFraidyCat no not 👻

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GET OFF THE STAGE!!!!

step 1:be this guy
Best take is how if magicians were actually magic preforming this kind of trickery would be mundane, even vulger behavior.
I was considering listing to the voices telling me to buy a channel membership but qxir said not to so I'm going to listen to the voice of reason and save my money...
.... hopefully to buy Qxir merch
I had to find the video of him being pierced. To my ancient eyes, I was born in 1958 when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth, the videos didn't seem all that graphic, but then the nightly news of the Vietnam War might have jaded me to impalements. The Xray that I found of him definitely showed the sword going through his body. The theory has it that he had to have lived for some time with a rod being slowly inserted into his body, deeper every few days until it formed a fistula, the same thing as the hole created by an ear piercing, and left there until shortly before a performance to keep the hole from closing up, just like a pierced ear, tongue, nipple, navel, labia, glans(OUCH) or any other part of the body.
ya dude he explained how he did it the video
Any one else suddenly want to get a membership?
Im not sure but i think its calls sufism
Me watching and commenting on afew old videos waiting for new ones too feed my curiosity while ignoring my school work here now debating on buying a membership-
3:35 what kinda magic tricks did you watch as a kid. Tf
the dude turned himself into a strainer, end of story
Absolute NO word of a lie!!. I had a rather insane acquaintance about 20’years ago.. who swallowed a whole bunch of dried pine needles and some ink!!… (as he wanted internal tattoos)… seriously!.
(I’m a tattoo artist.. and he was living on my couch at the time).. bloody FREAK!.. (he didn’t die… from that).
But yeah… people DO swallow weird stuff for strange reasons!..
Doubt it
@@shadymcnasty5920 so?
When your guardian angel is your biggest fan and really wants to meet you.
Hey Qxir so I after watching this video while cuddling with my girlfriend (we watch all your content together!) she shared this story with me about how she was over at her parents a while back while that old show Tosh.0 happened to be on the television. He was showing some footage of some asian dudes doing this exact stuff and it did indeed traumatize her a little, and of course Daniel Tosh being the inconsiderate prick he is, never bothered to explain wtf was going on. Now that she's seen your explanation for how this shit works, she finally has some closure on the whole affair.
So thank you for helping my girlfriend work through the trauma of accidentally seeing Daniel Tosh

Qxir, have you ever thought about doing a video on the Ghost Ship fire in Oakland CA? I would very much enjoy seeing a video of that incident through your eyes and talents.
This man isn't stab proof he's stab ambivalent. If he were stab proof he would be impervious to stab. This video was named by the same people who "water-proofed" your watch up to "30 meters".
