I got a close friend and we just brought someone who lived there related to him back to the States because it's so turbulent there right now. Anyway I wouldn't go down in the catacombs myself but these videos are cool, I think it'd be really easy to get lost or like mugged even, cause people run into other people all the time down there. I am sure there's even some lesser known parts of it that are host to worse things like ... areas for criminal activity or like Satanic cults etc

      I'm amazed that people forget these are man-made structures, meaning _people_ built them. The workers were there, with no electricity, digging away and putting up the brick and stone that holds the whole thing together. Wanna talk about scary? Imagine being down there for 16 hours a day, breathing rotten air (if you've ever been near a construction site for a subterrainean parking lot you know what I'm talking about), with a rickety oil lamp to light up your work and being constantly at the risk of having the whole damn think fall on your head. _That's_ fucking scary.

    He probably got into a part of the catacombs that had next to zero oxygen and especially gases that build up over time from no air flow at all, him being down 300 feet below street level, this is a very real possibility. This can cause someone to panic, and breathe faster thus killing them in the process from the deadly air. That's what I think happened. He wasn't being chased, wouldn't you panic if you couldn't breathe?

      A sword is likely best, or spear. A gun would cause collapse in such brittle walkways. Yes, it would come down to the sword to survive. Batteries are most definitely a must. Backpack with food, and potable water. Other people are a must, too. Say you are trapped by collapse, what then? Never ever go alone in such desperate conditions. You will likely die alone, but another could reach help, which will reach you. Always record what you do, cause a maze can confuse, but video will always show the exact path taken. So batteries for that, too. Medical field kit for any cuts and or burns depending on if you somehow where so inclined to use torch and then burned self. Stead fast, and look for fairly recent collapses, likely, if this is a real incident, that individual buried himself down there under rock and refuse.

    I am actually a little familiar with the Paris Catacombs and can confirm that the footage is probably real but not in the way people think it is.
    Not only is exploring the Catacombs not a good idea but it is also illegal in Paris and it's illegal for a very specific reason. There is a group of explorers that frequent the catacombs
    that can confirm that whenever it rains the catacombs actually gets really flooded very very fast. Meaning the water can sometimes even go up to waist-length during this downtime. When this happens, explorers are encouraged to run as fast as they can to the nearest exit ladder to safety, however because the Catacombs is practically a maze this is a bit of a challenge.
    After looking at the footage i notice i can hear the sound of puddles as the man is running.
    whoever had this camera probably noticed the water levels rapidly rising and was in such a panic to find an escape he probably just dropped his camera on the way out.
    Honestly that's all I really think it is.
    Also fun little fact if you venture just far enough into the catacombs you might stumble upon a secret area where all the catacombs explorers frequently meet up to party with music and the like.
    Theres a bunch of cool things in that secret area from sculptures to replicas of famous paintings to an actual DJ Booth.
    In reality the Catacombs is not as scary as people make it out to be but it is still a bit dangerous.

    After watching too many videos and reading up on the history of the catacombs, Its clear he is WAY too deep in them. There's no graffiti, and in the footage it's very clear he's not in his right mind, paranoia and fear quite literally taking him over. I think the idea of some kind of "creature" or whatnot is interesting but...not very plausible. I think he was in there for too long, and as I said he was WAY TOO DEEP and alone, the silence can actually affect your brain. You can hear voices, see things of course, you're going to panic and run. But then again we have so much left to discover in our world so maybe one day there's proof that something is down there, but for now I think his surroundings got to him

And why would he drop his source of light and run into darkness if he was scared. The video is shot dramatically which is what studios do. Its a 100% fake.

    I cant say about the authenticity of the Paris Catacombs but my father, as a child and his 2 friends stumbled on some in Sicily and scared the hell out of all of them. This was back in the 50's. They were exploring and found an entrance that brought them to a lower level of the town, into a church ruin. They thought they were opening huge cupboard doors thinking they would find old books or something and as they opened them them they encountered skeletons of dead priests etc In a panic they got disoriented and almost couldnt find their way out.. One of his friends was sick for months and the other two were so freaked out with fear that they never ventured near that area ever again.

That’s creepy 😮. Now, Rome...that is definitely filled with a lot of tunnels and bodies, etc... After all they built the new city on top of the old city. There are plexiglass cut outs that you can walk over to look down on some of the foundations from the old city. It’s absolutely insane, in a really interesting and cool way. 😊✌🏻

      Comment 2: I suppose if the tunnels were in the higher parts of Sicily...but not too close to Mt. Etna...as that would be almost impossible with the volcanic activity. I mean Sicily does go from 0ft above sea level to like 10,000ft at the highest peak of Etna. (Or something like that...don’t remember the exact elevation). Would have to know what town/city in Sicily these tunnels are supposed to be located. Still....interesting to say the least. 😊

      All of the bodies would have been decomposed, it was built as an ossuary- you take the bones and reinter them someplace else. In some places you can see the bones stacked into piles, usually by bone type, like most ossuaries would. There's at least one ossuary church that I'm familiar with- the Sedlec Ossuary Church in Kutna Hora, Czechia (you should check out pictures of it, it's morbidly beautiful). Just last month they announced that if you wish to take pictures inside the church you need to ask for permission three days in advance to curb the onslaught of 'inappropriate selfies' that tourists have been taking.

    Realistic theory: the catacombs usually flood when it rains, and the puddle sounds suggest that he panicked with the catacombs started to flood. Most likely he tried to find a way out but failed, and became just another skeleton in the sea of the dead.
    Scary theory: Given his panic, and how he started to run, it was suggesting someone or something was down there with him. Also him dropping the camera could show his effort to try to lose weight in order to run faster, or the camera was knocked out of his hands.

      If he thought something was coming after him then he might have decided to just drop the camcorder. After all, running with it, with the light on, means anyone following him could clearly just follow the light. Perhaps it was a panic thing but I'm guessing the thought was, "I gotta ditch this light and do it RIGHT NOW!" and so he just drops it. If I recall, a lot of camcorders had menus that weren't easy (or quick) to navigate. There might not have been a simple "on/off" switch for the light. Faster to ditch it and run!

      He said the recording lasts as long as there was time left in the cam after the person dropped it. Wouldn't the video have some evidence of the flooding if that was the case? And even if the video wasn't long enough to show the potential flood, how did the cam survive the water?

      I also find it odd that Francis found two of the landmarks that were seen in the original video such as the skeleton painting and the room full of bones which seemed like it wasn't far from where the camera was dropped and decided to call off the search.

    • @efnissien
      @efnissien 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The thing is, while finding the skeleton painting, the catacombs are full of charnel houses (rooms packed with bones) so the room Francis found may not be the one in the video... if it is, then I agree, it's odd that two key locations have been found, which again flags up that it's fake.

    Now I've never been into the catacombs, but feel down a rabbit hole and ended up researching them way to much. From what I found, the catacombs act a lot like storm drains when it rains, and can fill up with water up to the stomach rather quickly. Seeing how the water was flowing past the camera, I think the explorer just noticed the water level rising and panicked, making a break for an escape ladder and leaving his camera behind.

    Regarding batteries running out when you're exploring, it reminds me of a rule of thumb I once read about concerning cave diving: divers use a third of their oxygen going in, so they have a two-thirds supply to get back with. If I were exploring the catacombs, I'd use a similar rule of thumb concerning the batteries.
    About the video: The Blair Witch Project came out in 1999; this seem very much in that vein - even the figure on the wall reminds me of the mysterious crosses in The Blair Witch Project. It could be coincidence, but what we see of the catacomb video seems rather derivative, to me. I doubt it's real.

    Wrong, the footage was actually first mentioned much earlier in the mid 1990s in the Fox tv show called Sightings, I remember the tv host said something like they recently received a video from an unknown source that shows a person lost in an underground tunnel and they asked their tv viewers to contact them if there is any further informations on the video .. I went to check the wikipedia page for the Signtings TV episodes and found that Season 4 Ep5 aired in 1995 did contain a description of "haunted catacombs", i believe thats the one mentioning the lost man footage ... I think people got the wrong impression that it was first mentioned in 2000 because Rob Gavagan wrongly mentioned that piece of information in his own youtube video on it ...

If someone found a camera like that why wouldnt they give it to the police instead of some random guy? Why is there no full footage anywhere? Why did he decide to record in the middle when he could of backtracked if he recorded in the beginning? Why are they trying to make it seem as scary as possible like " oh he probably saw something" and the guy just so happens to pass a really creepy monster painting when they are trying to make it seem as scary as possible to begin with. Idk it screams fake to me.

It's scary with a bunch of other people, steady light sources and a guide. They call them the Shanghai Tunnels and was used for human trafficking as the tunnels connected to the Columbia River which eventually connects to the Pacific (if the guides are to be believed). The thing that freaked me out the most? There were cells down there, like a prison, made of iron and super old (or, very convincing set dressing?) but the bars were flat, not round, and so close together only a finger could fit though. Never saw anything like that before or since. If it's not some bs publicity/touristy stuff, it's horrific.

I remember getting it, it was a big deal to me- I was 6 almost 7 years old, one month before my 7th birthday. It was paid in cash, no link to my parents or forms they filled out. I'm pretty sure the paper receipt (an old written receipt on transfer paper- it was from a place similar to Radio Shack, next door to it back then) is still in the massive case. Those old cameras were huge. My camcorder actually still works, believe it or not, but it doesn't have anything linking it to the owner or a registration of sorts, that I'm sure of.
