Amelia Earhart plane expedition update!

There’s an underwater cave system in Tennessee that is illegal to enter. It’s blocked by two chain linked fences and warnings of severe penalties if trespassed, yet a man named David Gant decided to still go scuba diving in it. Nothing ever good comes from diving in underwater caves people!! 😩

Also I tried very hard to find the name of the Japanese documentary that covered this, but no reliable answer. If anyone knows I’d love to give them credit!

Nothing is scarier than the ocean, except for the Shadow Zone

Note: scientists have explored the Shadow Zone but here’s surprisingly little footage or images of it. So vast majority of the visuals are NOT of the Shadow Zone, it’s just to give you a visual.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever had sleep paralysis 👋 and if you have do you see the dark figure in the corner? If you do, watch to the end 👀

Truly one of the most terrifying phenomenons and this is one of the rare instances where the scientific explanation is actually way scarier

Christa Pike is the first person to ever survive a dose of lethal injection. This has never happened in recorded history. No one has ever been given a dose of pentobarbital and survived…now she is awake and speaking a week later.

So how did she survive? Theories in the video.

This has to be our most topical Spooky Science Series. Make sure you follow all October long for more and on YT for our mega Spooky Science episode at the end of the month!

Umm apparently our teeth didn’t start in our mouth?! Scientists just discovered that teeth started out on the outside of the body and then transformed/evolved to be in our mouth. Spooky Science Series is BACK BABY 👻

Scientists led by Dr. Yara Haridy found ancient fish that were covered with teeth-like scales all over their body that they used to sense their environment. We don’t have teeth for scales anymore but we have kept some if not all of the sensory nerves to this day.
