    I used to work diamond drilling up in the territories 500 miles north of Yellowknife in the tundra and it’s the most scary place I’ve ever been. You would think it would be the grizzly bears, or wolves, or albino caribou, giant mosquitos, and countless more things that would be the most terrifying. But no, it’s the silence. When your alone at the location I was in, it’s so quiet that all you can hear is a ringing in your ears. And everything else that’s there is stalking you, starving, trying to be as quiet. There was a stray big wolf that was circling my drill for a couple days and it was insane. The only reason he didn’t attack us was because our drill was so loud when it was going. But in all actuality, we were dropped off on complete isolation by helicopter for 12 hours waiting for another helicopter to come pick us up and if for some reason that drill goes down, you are completely vulnerable to everything armed with bear spray.

    I'm ojibwe and was raised in the southwest by my great uncle (who was navajo). For those outside the native cultures this may sound absurd, but it honestly sounds like the land is angry at being disturbed and it protecting itself from being polluted any further by people by chasing the people out and destroying anyone that stay.

      I LOVE this explanation.
      The original people in Hawaii told me a mountain was sacred and when I went up there I felt like I had to duck and whisper.
      And I kept asking why am I doing this??
      And since I’ve come back (2009) kinda been developing an idea that the earth might actually be alive.

    • @ranrajmirsen6887
      @ranrajmirsen6887 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      YES, almost my thoughts exactly. Except I think it's more that the Native Americans in the region are protecting their land rather than the land being angry.
      I think a logical explanation for the disappearances of the people finding gold is that the Native Americans living in that region want to keep it as pure as possible. So whenever some asshole gold-mining businessman comes up there and finds gold and threatens to destroy and tear apart one of the last remaining untouched areas of Canada, they murder him (or them) and burn down any structures the mining people may have built there.
      Panning for gold in a land that doesn't belong to you, and planning to come back with your other white friends and maybe some heavy machinery and dynamite to destroy that beautiful park, is enough reason for any Native American to murder them when they had the chance. Then just cut their heads off and bury them somewhere to make the whole thing look mysterious.
      As MrBallen said, the police suspected no foul play and so they definitely didn't question anyone living in or around the area.
      It's also not outside of the realm of possibility that the Native Americans who warned the rescue crew of the spooky figures in the forest at night may have been the same people howling and making the scary noises.
      This doesn't explain the flash-frozen hunter or the story of the woman scaling the cliff, but it's a logical explanation for the rest of it IMO.
      Just my thoughts.

(That's what I think animals would do if they head just yourhead) plus animal's would most definitely go after your legs, your arms, or your chest frist snice most organ meat is very nutritious. Also why just the head and go through all that effort when the rest of the boats right their.This is why I agree It's a tribe that's very aggressive and territorial.

      Take some liberties and have like one crazy hermit that lives there just outside the valley, they are the only person who lives in the valley at all, and the hermit gives the people going in an ominous warning that they ignore because obviously the crazy hermit is crazy.
      At the end of the movie when the last guy is running from whatever it is, they run to the hermit's home and hammer the door, the hermit doesn't even open it, you just hear their voice from the other side say something like "The valley doesn't like visitors" right before the last guy is pulled into the forest by some unseen force, you hear a scream, and the movie ends.

    It seems to me that searchers, and rescue workers can enter and leave the valley. Despite the treacherous topography and climate, most people who run into trouble are ones that are trying to remove the minerals that are a natural part of the area. There are still people around in Hawaii to pass the word along not to try taking the rocks back to the mainland. Maybe the same is true here, but whoever knew not to do this remove the gold and such may be gone.

    In Canadian history all we learned about was how there were tons of gold that's untouched in the far north. If my history teacher told stories like this, I would've paid a lot more attention!

    "we've had like over a dozen decapitations in the last few decades, probably all natural deaths though..." "Oh yeah and every time someone builds a structure there, it burns down? Natural."

    The 2 beheaded guys just tried hitting a mosquito on each others necks with a machete at the same time. Just a terrible accident , but something that could happen to literally any of us.

      The chance the cops could be the killers seem unlikely. Remember there is no official way into the valley and this people could get in any number of ways. For the cops to track them is nearly impossible and very dangerous.

      Or they know that you can't take them on...in my mind...modern day, modern weapons...I think a party of 100 people armed with high powered semi-automatic weapons might be able to tame the headless valley...I mean in my mind anyway...but at the same time...that is some bad shit going on in that place..

    • @WhitneyDahlin
      @WhitneyDahlin 2 ปีที่แล้ว +143

      I don't know if the police are protecting something in the valley so much as protecting themselves! The police probably didn't want to spend any more time in that valley than they absolutely had to and they definitely didn't want to spend the night out there if they could help it. So I kind of understand why they claim none of the deaths are connected and they are all just natural cause deaths. Because if that wasn't the case they would have a duty to go out there and stay and figure out what's going on and none of them wanted to do that. I don't even feel bad for those gold miners who CHOSE to go into headless valley after the original 3 deaths. Come on. There have been like a dozen mysterious deaths most of them involving decapitation and the name of the place is f**king HEADLESS VALLEY. I don't even feel bad for you if you CHOOSE to go out there. I honestly believe it was probably another Gold Miner/s who wanted to keep all of the gold in the area for themselves and so just started ambushing and killing anyone who was in the area. They probably figured if they killed enough people it would deter others from coming out there. It's also possible the native Americans didn't take kindly to randos showing up in their area using up their resources (wild animals for food chopping down trees etc) and taking their gold off their land. Either way it's probably safe now. I'm more interested in the caves along that area though. I really wish some brave cavers would go out there and explore the caves and film them so we can see what's in them.

      @@WhitneyDahlin yup that is when they find the skulls and naked pale humanoids skittering in the dark during a live feed...but I agree with most of what you said...in the day natives would decapitate people,also it is kinda strange that natives warned a search party about "the pale people" I just believe alot more is in this world or just outside our reality...it is crazy though about the woman in 1926...then the fella that said he saw a naked woman on all fours that looked not quite right...you never know..
