Hi, Gen X internet user and still breathing here. I believe that's a flood/text DDoS attack from the 90's. Floodbots were the first "script kiddie" process that didn't require any real coding ability so they proliferated throughout IRC (Discord/Instant messaging circa 1996-2000) and Usenet. The fact that it hits almost exclusively Christian channels instantly made me think of my edgy peers from my teens. Trolling Christians and suicide/mental health channels on Usenet or IRC was as popular then as drama channels and rage bait is now.

There's a good possibility that several people read the entire article and willfully omitted the important parts. They need to sell the story after all. You approached this very optimistically.

I feel your pain on the ‘why don’t they read the article’ bit. The amount of times I’ve seen something on one of those creepy list channels being completely misrepresented even though it would’ve taken two seconds of actual research is infuriating. I’m all for a good spooky mystery, but there’s plenty of stuff out there to talk about without dredging up decades old stuff that’s already been explained or debunked.

I immediately feel so at peace every single time Gymnopedie No. 1 starts playing on this channel.

It reminds me of a kind of test my chemistry teacher gave the class in high school. She passed out the sheet of instructions and said read the entire page before starting your work. The first sentence on the page said read the entire thing before starting the work. The instructions involved folding up a piece of notebook paper in various ways and just about all of us students were quickly getting after it. Of course the very last line of instruction was "after reading the entire page don't do anything at all" or something similar to that. So if you just read the whole thing you'd have known to just sit there.

Its not that i didnt read the whole thing, it was just that i was dumb :c

@@jeffreyfalcon243 Wikipedia is weird about what it wants to include, what it doesn't, and what their justifications are. For one, they don't allow first party sources, meaning most scientific data is out the window but the news articles that might misinterpret the reports are perfectly fine. And while they try to be objective in what they consider noteworthy and relevant, there is a lot of internal politics that bias what is and isn't allowed. Heck, at one point, a celebrity (forget who) tried to correct some incorrect information on his own page and was told he wasn't allowed to, because he "can't be unbiased" about himself. He was fixing his _birth date._ A secondary source gave an incorrect date, so that had to be the correct one even if it wasn't. Back around 2012 there was an edit war on the F-15 Eagle article because the team in charge of monitoring aviation articles didn't think Transformers was relevant enough to include in the "In Pop Culture" section, but thought a video made for and shown at a single museum in Arizona was. Setting aside what the "Pop" in "Pop Culture" means, it turned out that the people who didn't want the mention of Transformers was dismissing the show because "It's a dumb cartoon only kids watch" even though the majority of fans are in their 30's and 40's. The ultimate solution was to remove the section entirely when someone higher up intervened. So I can see why that might be the case; Wikipedia CAN be an unreliable source.

That 'Hall of the Mountain King' tune still gives me flashbacks. Had a crazy teacher when I was about 12, he'd put on classical pieces of music on the record player that the whole class had to listen to and attempt to follow the printed the score with our fingers (we had no idea). Whilst he stood at the front of the class with a baton, 'conducting' the orchestra. He used to get properly carried away and I sat next to a kid who'd get the giggles and that would set me off. If the teacher caught us he'd smack us over the hand with his baton. That piece was one of his favourites, I can still see him giving it beans as it reaches its crescendo. With me and my class mate having to bite our tongues to stop us from LOL and getting a smack on the back of the hand.

I used to see these messages on Craigslist posts. They were written in white text below an obviously fake post.

A sane channel that doesn't deal in conspiracy theories and debunks an internet hoax in under 20 minutes. Thank you.

Debunking the whack mysteries makes the real ones stand out that much more. You're easily the best content creator in this sphere just because of your ability to read and keep information from melding into a soup in your head. Do you take requests or tips?

I'm a soup brain and I'm glad I found this channel.

That transition to the ad read though.

I’d like Barely Sociable to have a separate channel just to critic dEbUnKiNg vIdEoS hahahah

While I love your more serious, documentary style videos, this has got to be my favourite video on the channel. It was so fun to hear you drop the narrator and laugh with you about something so strange and stupid. Wonderful video, Barely Sociable!

“It was just a troll all along” well it’s nice knowing some things about the Internet never change

Thanks for putting this “mystery” out of its misery, lets throw some sand and flowers on it, sing somber songs and bury it deep, may it rest in peace now. I was quite enthusiastic usenet user back in the day, so this case intrigued me, just not enough to research it on my own. You rock, hard :)

You should have titled this video "Listen as I loose my mind."

Maybe he should tighten his mind up if its a bit "loose".

"Loosing" (up) one's mind is always gonna be better than "losing" one's mind. Assuming the person in question has a mind to lose in the first place, that is.

I can feel the soul crushing pain of Barely Sociable as he cries for that guy to scroll down and read the full article.

Please keep making these intriguing videos! This is my new favorite channel, by far.

I cannot handle the persona break in the middle; it's incredibly impressive that you can not only inspire curiosity and perhaps some chills in your audience but genuine laughter. Thank you for that smile today.

I'm saddened by the obvious solution to this mystery but the presentation for this video was sick as hell and I respect you immensely

"Did they even read the fu... oh they put it here at the end. Guess I should have read the full article..." made me laugh way more than it should have

Its been years since ive felt the need to comment on a youtube video, so here goes. The silk road video was recommended to me and it was phenomenal.. I binged all your videos in a day and am sad i finished all your content. Keep up the good work you've got yourself a new subscriber :)

i enjoyed this video so much i willingly sat through your dashlane pitch

Maybe the articles we read to completion are the true friends we made along the parallax.

Barely Sociable is one of the best channel out there to cover mysteries. His videos are so documented and well explained. I love this channel. Keep up the good work!

Really really great work . Great video. Great channel. I loved your research and editing skills

Laughing because I think I got a glimpse of the insanity you go through to make these by the 12 min mark. Very good video yet again 👌🙏

I love this. He is so exasperated over this. He seems as irritated at this as I am with people who think that corsets are death traps.

I don’t think they’re death traps but squeezing organs and voluntarily shortness of breath does seem a bit extreme just to look and not truly be snatched.

This is the best mysterys channel i've come across so far. Great resarch, grate narrative, nice voice, funny at times, awesome

Always read the articles till the end ;) Love the video :)

"The answer lies in people's inability to read past the headline." This line made me chuckle Great vid as always!

That's a second big *Ops* from the *Info Graphics Show*

This started as an interesting mystery and ended in everyday frustration with people's inability to do any kind of minimal research. Subbed.

Keep up the good work. You are amazing.

Its really amazing how people will make a video but not really bother doing more than just simple/casual research on the topic in that video. It happens so often that its just incredible.

'Incredible' that people who write 'articles' and video 'documentaries' with 'research' are more interested in 'clicks' and 'attention' leading to instant 'profit' than 'accuracy' or basic 'competency'? Yes. Incredibly 'common'.

One of my favorite videos yet. Just read the whole article. Love it.

The fact that easily explainable stuff like this become "big internet mysteries" makes me wonder how many actual stories are missed in the process.

Love your work. Great research, and enjoy hearing your discovery and research process. Thank you for making superior original content.

this says a lot about society, and yet we live in one.
