If he had been poisoned, he more than likely would have vomited all over. Because the human body will react in ways to get rid of anything that is toxic to the body. Not to mention that most anything toxic enough to kill somebody will also show signs of other side effects. Like discoloration, burns, rashes. Muscular reactions. Because the body is fighting death.

The fact that the woman after 50 years still seemed afraid to tell who the man was suggest that it’s probably a organization because the actual killer probably was long dead by then or at least very elderly as she wa at the time. This sounds like something an fbi profiler would have to solve

@masonrz

Жыл бұрын

The two might be related in some way. unidentifiable person, mysterious death, labels removed from clothes, few items on the person (none of which can identify the person), suite case left at a train station with items in that also can not be used to identify the person (labels removed as well), both were close to military/rocket sites 10:16 (nuclear rocket range) in this case and the "Isdal Woman" was also thought to have followed the penguin missile testing locations. That might also explain why the nurse was so scared to talk, since she knew the man from seeing him and might have been involved in his death in some way (or saw the murder at least), so she knew/saw the dangerous people that was after the man and wanted her name to stay out of anything related to the case in fear that they might come after her (also her reaction when she saw the man's face tells me that she was just a bystander that got dragged into this, since a trained person would not react that way in order to avoid suspicion). the same group might have gone after the Isdal Woman as well hence the similarities in how the bodies and their artefacts were found. Sounds like a conspiracy theory, but the similarities are just to close

As soon as you said all the labels had been removed from the clothing, it can be assumed this man was a clandestine operative. Labels are removed from operative’s clothing so it can’t be traced back to the country/region/area where it was purchased which can potentially compromise the operative. Personally, I think the man either poisoned himself or was poisoned by someone else. They’ll never find his true identity. Most likely his family (if he had one) was quietly notified of his death and were warned not to talk about it by the government he worked for.

There is another very strange detail about this case. The book from which the scrap "Tamam Shud" was torn out had a format that did not match the actual edition indicated on the inside cover. In fact, it did not match the format of any other Rubayat edition published between 1930 and 1945. It resembles most closely the 1941 Whitcombe and Tombs edition of the book, but there are still slight differences in the font and the size of the paper. Somerton Man's copy of Rubayat appears to be bespoke. No other copy identical to it has ever been found.

I recently saw another very similar KZread video about a woman that also had the labels removed from her clothing and she was found dead with no idea who she was. Some thought she might be a spy but others did not. She had a lot of wigs and different sunglasses and non prescription eyeglasses in a suitcase, too, among other things. All of her makeup had the labels removed, also. She had died from being caught on fire but she had a bunch of pills in her stomach as if she had been forced to take them before she was caught on fire. Very strange how similar that story is like this one. They dubbed her the Isdal Woman. Really interesting. It's enough to make you think the two cases are somewhat related to some degree.

Well, we only just discovered last week that D.B. Cooper was actually Loki, so who knows? Maybe the Somerton man will turn out to be someone equally interesting.

I don’t know if he writes the scripts, but the way he tells these stories, theories, history lessons, facts, and so much more is both entertaining and intriguing. The structure he uses to tell these stories is top notch story telling to keep you engaged, laughing, thinking, and interested. The final lines of his videos always make me smile because of the great story telling work. What a legend

My Psych professor once told us about how his mom went to Harvard. She had a professor who went to South America on a trip, and came back with a fatal disease. He was the kind of guy who didn’t want to be a burden, he didn’t want others to worry about him. The disease was too much for him. So he dressed in his finest suit, and walked into the ocean. This video just reminds me of that.

Exciting!! Your video had more info than I've seen. I didn't know about the exhumation. I was able to read about who he is! Thanks for sharing!

If they thought he had been poisoned by an exotic poison of the type spies might use and the other strange background or lack of them items involving the deceased, I would think the police would have the intelligence services monitor the nurse. She may not have had an important position in her work, but maybe early in her life she was active in communist organizations and they found her useful in facilitating their espionage activities in the area. She may have been the local spy contact. Lover, spy contact or both. After determining he was the father through DNA, the question comes who was he before the pregnancy? Tracing DNA should go upward and outward.

This channel is brilliant, so many interesting video's!

The reference to the poem reminds me of George Eastman’s “My work here is finished. Why wait?”
