      There’s another channel on TH-cam that the story is really close and some of the wording is exact. I don’t think it’s fair that other channels use other peoples work very disappointing to see a channel like this do this. I know the other channel did it first because I’ve seen it a time ago. Other channels that borrow should really reference their material first.

    Hannah’s fears were totally justified, even in the late 1990s a woman narrowly escaped being buried alive and l am sure it still happens. Aimee was able to live how she chose because of being rich and able to do whatever she wanted to, she was extremely wise to have rejected Aleister Crowley’s proposals.

    I know this isn't really your thing, but I wonder if there's anything from this era that would allude to alien abduction. The only reason I ask is there was a case in China or Japan (I seen it on Mr Ballen) that does. England and France have had a long history with ufos. I just can't imagine in the 18th century it would have been talked about 🤔 I'd still be curious though. Either way, I love these videos. Thank you ❤❤❤😊.

    If you're looking for an odd story to run around the time of the US election, you could do worse than look at the life of Edward Hyde, Lord Cornbury and Earl of Clarendon, who was a most unusual governor of the colony of New York in 1702.

    My own daughter did her own little "Adele", when she was 13; and she was found again, 4 days later, safe and sound near the Reeperbahn, in Hamburg. I had the police pick her up, and hold her until a local friend came for her (I was 600 KM away). I ended up feeling so proud of my girl's resourcefulness, despite her aging me about 20 years; and boy did she have a totally sensible travel tale to tell! I can sympathize with her parents, and I feel quite proud of Adele too! Here's to self-sufficient young ladies!

    Nico, I love your work.
    On the premature burials, this is silly old folklore. The topic created interest in those early papers.
    As a physician, those people knew when life ended. None of those conditions that were mentioned even remotely look like death.
    When the old clock stops ticking, it is clear. Your hand is a fine thermometer. Especially in chilly old England (that you know well) , 98.6 feels very different than 70 (even at the 30th parallel south where I live).

    I remember reading an article about Spring Heeled Jack many years ago where the author, who lived at the time, claimed Jack was actually a woman who worked as a performer in a traveling entourage. She performed acrobatics and produced flames by expelling alcohol from her mouth on to a lit candle or some other type of flame. Also the nine foot wall she was claimed to have leapt over was actually a three foot gate located in the wall. She was "mentally unbalanced" and had to be watched over by her traveling troupe, as she was constantly getting into trouble. She disliked upper class women or anyone who seemed wealthy. Maybe just another theory, but who knows?

    I was so terrified of premature burial as a child in the US that my mother after patiently trying everything else she could think of explained modern embalming to me. She was sure I'd have a new fear but at that point I'd been so stressed for months I happily went off to play. I still can't watch movies/shows that depict it.

    I really did like and very much enjoyed these stories & legends, as I find them all very inspiring. I think that the very best was saved for last. In fact, I have a theory of mine own, regarding “The Leatherman”.
    My Theory is based on this passage from The Holy Bible.
    “Do not be afraid to entertain strangers, for you may be entertaining, an Angel in Disguise”. The Holy Bible
    Perhaps, that’s what or rather who, The Leatherman was, An Angel in Disguise.
    Perhaps it was The Lord God’s way of proving “Who were of both, of a kindness of heart & generosity of spirit, to care enough for a poor, lonely & wandering stranger??? And who, when he died, cared enough and was willing to make an effort, to give him both, proper & decent burial.
    That’s the very best explanation, that I can come up with. And who knows? It might very well be true.
    They were all wonderful & marvelous Legends and stories. Your doing wonderfully, please keep up the Good Work.

      That physician made a pretty sweeping, unverifiable estimate of so many people being buried alive. I know they often held up a mirror to a person's nose to see if it fogged, suggesting he was still breathing. But for someone to be so unconscious that he appears dead would lead to a rapid suffocation if he was consigned to the grave. There's no way to verify if someone has been buried alive w/o digging up the body. I have heard tales of them doing so & finding claw marks on the inside of the coffin, but that might be apocryphal. Let's hope so. 😮

    My grandmother was born in 1926, when she was 14 she was real sick. Her family had made a pine box and was planning a funeral. Her 18 yr old brother saw she was sweating and knew dead didn't sweat. He sat by her bed whipping her head with a shot gun saying he'd shoot anyone trying to put his sister in the ground.
    I'm thankful to my great uncle because I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. My grandmother said she had brain fever, I'm not sure what that is. I always thought she was in a coma.
