springheeled jack is my favourite strange story/cryptid. it's just so god damn bizzare. the most likely story is this is a rich dude who dressed up like a devil and parkoured across london pulling what he most likely saw as "pranks" and honestly, if thats the most realistic story, its still one hell of a story. I really hope this story catches more people's imagination. Springheeled jack deserves to be widely known along with big foot and moth man.

I have no idea who or what it was. Alot of the eyewitness accounts stated that it was 7 feet tall, towering over people and many stated that it could leap on to the roofs of 3 story townhouses. The only two things that I can think of is that opium was really popular back then and that newspapers would pay people for interviews in a time where alot of people suffered from living in abject poverty so some of them may have intentionally made up stories to gain money in times of desperation.

2:25 Business owners were not considered upper class in Victorian England, not unless they had an upper class background. A rich businessman would be seen as middle class (or even working class) no matter how rich he was. The true upper class was the landed gentry and the aristocracy. This only began to change in the 1980s.

I love their voices!

I didn't know Spring Heeled Jack was real. I used to like the Song By "The Smiths Morressey" with the same name😊At the end of the song people are talking about Spring Heeled Jack and because of their Cockney accent they say "E Was "Meh UL" aka "Mental" 😊

@imgoingtocountdownfromthir4580

The song was called "Spring heeled Jim" not Jack, and Morrissey and the 3 other Smiths didn't have Cockney accents, Cockney is a London accent, The Smiths were from Manchester, with Mancunian accents.

I started to become fascinated with this London urban legend due to its inclusion in Terrordrome Reign of the Legends. The reimagining it as a man with prostethetic legs, tractable wrist blades and a mask that allows him breath fire. And how this thing actually mightve been the original inspiration for BATMAN

One of the Spring-Heeled Jack Penny Dreadfuls from 1899. Is called The Human Bat. There's a lot of things similar to Batman. But no real proof that Bob Kane ever read it. But the list of things he stole & plagiarized over the years is staggering. Apparently there's a Spring-heeled Jack story that takes place in the old west. I'll have to track that one down.

Damn this was really good. I read a book with a story about springheel jack when I was younger and it scared the crap out of me. I could barely sleep lol. It was that and then a story about some big foot creature they called jacko or something.

Springheeled Jack once auditioned for a men's music group. Apparently he wasn't the Backstreet Boy they were after.

I love his voice!

I read that he has appeared in the attercliffe area of sheffield in the 1970s, he was seen climbing up walls and jumping across the roofs of buildings where sheffield arena now known as utilita arena once stood to escape 2 police officers.

i love the narrator's voice..
