ten unsold mysteries of fortune number
ten Alex from Tennessee if a random
person on the internet told you he had a
prize waiting for you if you came to a
spooky location in the middle of the
woods
it'll probably set your murder sensors
tripping faster than a family trip to OJ
Simpson's house well in 2013 an
anonymous 4chan poster made exactly that
offer promising a price to anyone who
would join him in a dilapidated building
in the woods in Tennessee
obviously other users weren't super keen
to jump into what seemed like the
world's most obvious trap and that
unease increased when the user told them
the reward was under plastic and posted
an image of a rotting hand however a few
days later one 4chan man called Alex did
must Rob the bravery / stupidity to
venture down into that building once
there Alex found dead animals loose
pills a hard drive and a plastic plate
with a poem on it it read played a date
a very important mate you shouldn't have
come I lied pretty spooky some have
claimed Alex was the same user who
anonymously posted the first message and
the whole thing was an elaborate hoax
but no one knows for sure
number 9 mortis org what is mortis org
bad question has haunted the internet
ever since the websites discovery and
near a media to removal believed to have
been designed in 1997 mortis not org sat
around in relative anonymity until all
was discovered by a group of 4chan users
in 2011 apart from the creepy name the
website raised eyebrows because it was
password-protected and even highly
skilled hackers failed to breach the
virtual barrier so the 4chan hackers
couldn't get onto the website but they
did manage to dig into the source code
and trace it back to a mysterious figure
called Ling looking into the man they
found that Lee had set up a series of
other strange websites in his name
including one called Cthulhu net a web
page featuring only an image of a white
chess piece and a quote saying dead
dreaming all that would be mysterious
enough but after weeks of people trying
to access the site suddenly it was taken
down by none other than the FBI
what exactly was lurking inside mortis
dot org remains a secret
birds whatever it was it must have been
pretty dark for the feds to take it down
number eight deeper in May 2016 a 4chan
user shared a private message to a
friend showing him a curious YouTube
channel he had found the two were
intrigued and shared it on soon the
channel became an obsession on 4chan and
reddit named deeper the channel uploaded
strange poor quality videos rarely more
than a minute long some of the videos
looked are they been ripped from older
VHS tapes and all of them are deeply odd
even stranger was the fact that the
meaning of the videos seemed impossible
to pin down impossible that is until one
user found a message hidden in one of
the uploads this hidden detail read
Stephanie and Bowman the name of a 15
year old girl who was murdered in the
1980s in Colorado the murderer was never
caught with this hint users managed to
find more and more connections between
the channel and the unsolved murders in
Colorado from the 80s and 90s still why
upload videos with a hidden connection
to a string of murders is it in our
project by some student filmmaker Oh
weird of iris Stan perhaps or far more
disturbingly a confession and speaking
of creepy youtube uploads number seven
newett a water this mystery lacks in
links to real-world murders it more than
makes up for in creepy imagery first
share two fortunes paranormal board in
2015 this YouTube video called the
internet by storm featuring a man in a
plane doctors mask
chilling in a run-down building
everything about the footage is creepy
and hard to explain even its title is
unsettling you see the video is called

1 there that ought to put up this
video's runtime a little bit as I'm sure
many of you will have guessed that's
binary specifically it's binary that
translates to Muerte or the Spanish the
death months later the daily doctor run
an exclusive interview with the videos
creator who used the pseudonym Parker
Warner right he claimed that the video
was an art piece however he remained
tight-lipped on his real identity only
saying that he lived in Poland and was
equally reticent on what meaning the
artists trying to convey number 6 the
ogre in 2015 an anonymous 4chan user
posted a photo of them holding a DVD of
Mad Max fury road pretty innocuous stuff
right so some random guy on the Internet
is about to enjoy two hours of epic
stunts explosions and flames ring
guitars but what court uses attention
almost immediately what's the original
posters thumb to put it politely that's
a pretty messed up thumb Salman claimed
it was fake a person posing with the toy
hacked others theorized that it was the
result of some hideous deformity and
started calling him an ogre and a cave
troll the situation however only got
stranger as the opieop loaded more
photos showing that he lived in a
basement one he was apparently trying to
expand by digging it out with his bare
hands he claimed the people who lived in
a house above him kept him down there
giving him old electronics and letting
him keep the wig trinkets he finds all
this information only deepened the
mystery was this person some kind of
hideous mutant being kept underground by
an ashamed family or was it all a giant
fake a fraud pulled by a bored prankster
number 5 I am God by now you've probably
noticed that 4chan has had some pretty
dark and mysterious moments and a lot of
the most enigmatic of them have come
from full transparent or --ml board take
me I am God incident for instance in
2014 a 4chan user posted that he was
experiencing some troubles with his
computer images and videos kept a pair
in his download folder without him
having knowingly downloaded anything
what's more when he opened these images
he was greeted by a picture of a
monstrous red face hidden on the faces
forehead was the Greek for I am and when
the image was translated into binary
it's spelt out God later the user
uploaded a video in which it appeared as
though the same a red demonic face was
haunting his house while the truth
behind this story probably isn't the
desert demonic being popping around to
someone's house for tea we don't really
know what was going on the guy could
have accidentally downloaded a virus
that messed with his computer in the
spookiest of ways or could it have all
been a hoax by the original poster
number 4 Ship Channel if you were being
manipulated and extorted by policemen
attempting to control your mind with a
microchip what's the first thing you
would do leave the country try and get
the chip taken out of you perhaps well a
woman in South Korea didn't do any of
that and instead resolved to livestream
her life to strangers on the internet
found by 4chan in 2008 this unidentified
woman nicknamed chip Chan online has
been live streaming her bedroom since
2006 she claims a corrupt South Korean
policeman is holding her hostage they're
extorting her for her money and
controlling her moods with a microchip
injected into her foot
although the streams are in a constant
they last for hours on end and she's
been posting them every day for over a
decade now some online believe her story
but have been unable to work out her
identity or that of her cop kidnapper
most believe the more likely story that
this is a woman with severe
schizophrenia episodes and a delusional
personality number 3 the bunker back in
February of 2015 a 4chan users started
an interesting thread about exploring an
underground bunker beneath his house
apparently his grandpa had tunneled out
this bunker himself during World War two
because he feared that there would soon
be nuclear apocalypse the user had never
dared to go down while his grandfather
was alive but now he
had and what had found disturbed him
greatly first there was the creepy
design of the bunker itself looking more
like its Foom than a shelter and
containing crypt like imagery including
a cross and a series of faces carved
from stone on the walls however much
more disturbing was the user's claim to
have found a bone down in the bunker a
bone that looks suspiciously human he
and many others online were convinced
that his grandfather had murdered
someone others claim this whole setup
was fake but since this thread was never
followed up on there's no way to tell if
someone really was killed down there in
a bunker all those years ago
number 2 cure nan for Chinese at its
most infamous when adventures into the
world of politics from starting
anonymous to making a cartoon frog one
of the most important figures in a
presidential election 4chan has a
history of significantly influencing
online discourse and the story of
queuing on is no different in October
2017 a 4chan user identifying himself
only as cue because he had top-secret
cue level security clearance started
claiming that he was an insider in
Trump's government he alleged that there
is a shadow government one applying a
coup against the trump administration
and against American democracy itself
these claims caught fire on 4chan with
theories running wild about which
government employee was Q some even
believed it was Trump himself whoever Q
was the theory which the mainstream
Trump supporters even started
name-dropping Q at rallies Q's claims
seem now to have been largely refuted
with various insider photos the user
supposedly took being revealed as from
stock footage websites however Q has
never officially been debunked and for a
while this four time mystery became a
part of the mainstream political debate
number one cicada 3301 perhaps the most
famous internet mystery of them all the
story of cicada 3301 begins in 2012
first posted on 4chan cicada 3301 was
the name given to a series of incredibly
to
go puzzles left on the forum by an
anonymous user the puzzles themselves
ranging from changing color resolutions
on images to decoding hidden messages in
poems and spotting references to obscure
many the Welsh manuscripts were
difficult enough one reference relied on
you having read a William Gibson book
who was only ever printed on 3.5 inch
floppy disks and deleted itself after
one read through but just as compelling
as the challenges themselves is the
puzzle of why this was all being done
and just who cicada really are the
original post claimed they were looking
for highly intelligent individuals
implying this was some sort of
recruiting scheme many believe it was
the CIA or military intelligence looking
for potential new code breakers and the
complexity of the code seems to back
this up however there are a few people
who have now managed to solve all of the
puzzles yet - no one rang up offering
them a job yes while the puzzles
themselves have now been solved there's
still no clue on just food designed this
labyrinthine series of challenges that
was 10 unsolved mysteries or 4-channel

interesting and do you think anything's
