There has been an insane amount of discoveries
all around the Earth that still remain a mystery.
Some of these scary discoveries can’t even
be rationalized or explained by science.
So that just goes to show you that Earth is
still a bizarre and crazy world to live in.
How’s it going YouTube?
I’m your host Landon Dowlatsingh and welcome
back to another most amazing video.
Before we get started be sure to check out
our sister channel called Top 5 scary videos.
They have a bunch of scary and 
unusual videos that will definitely keep you
up at night.
Alright let’s jump right into this list
of the top 10 scariest discoveries found on
earth.
300-year-old child mummy starts this list
off in at number 10.
The body of a child that died 300 years ago
apparently opened up her eyes in a video.
Let’s take a look.
Her body has been preserved in wax and people
in this village treat her as a Catholic saint.
The video was taken on December 12, 2012 by
a tourist who couldn’t believe his eyes.
Some pessimistic people believe that this
video is a hoax while others think that paranormal
activity is responsible for her eyes opening.
Either way, I think its kinda creepy to have
a little girl who was murdered preserved in
wax for hundreds of years and have her displayed
in a church.
I think she should be able to rest in peace.
Rolling into number 9 we have the Bosnian
Sphere.
This mysterious sphere was discovered in a
forest near a Bosnian town and people believe
that this rock could be the oldest stone sphere
that was made by humans.
The ball has a radius between four to five
feet and it has an extremely high iron content.
One scientist believes that this sphere proves
that there was an advanced lost civilization
that dates back more than 1,500 years.
He also believes that this region used to
have a lot more of these spheres but they
were ruined because people thought that there
was gold hidden inside.
Either way, the discovery of this sphere means
that there could have been an ancient civilization
that we have no written records for.
And it also shows us that they were highly
advanced and had the technology to create
something like this way before humans ever
walked the earth.
Biting into number 8 we have Venetian vampires.
Back in 2006 the skeleton of a woman from
the 16th century with a brick in her mouth
was discovered in Venice.
Historians believe that the remains might
have belonged to someone who was accused of
being a vampire and this might have been the
first vampire burial known in archaeology.
Back in the day, people believed that vampires
were behind the spread of plagues such as
the black death so they were heavily feared.
Gravediggers would sometimes come across corpses
that were bloated, their hair still growing
or blood seeping from their mouths so they
believed that they were still alive and that’s
why they would perform a vampire exorcism
and then bury them with bricks in their mouths.
It’s kind of disturbing to see what we used
to do in the past.
I wonder what future generations are going
to say about us.
Pits of severed hands brings us to number
7.
A team of archaeologists have dug up the skeletons
of 16 human hands that were buried in four
separate pits in Egypt.
Oh, and all of them were the right hands,
no lefts.
Most of the hands were actually really large.
Apparently, soldiers would present a cut off
right hand of an enemy in exchange for gold
and they also used this as a way to count
how many victims they killed.
This ritual also was significant because they
believed that by cutting off an enemy’s
right hand, you are taking away their strength
and power.
The Mount Owen Moa claw brings us to number
6.
This insanely large claw was discovered in
the caves of Mount Owen located in New Zealand.
Archeologists were really surprised when they
found this claw because it was extremely preserved.
The flesh and muscles were still attached
to it.
When they took this massive claw back to be
examined, it was later concluded that it belonged
to the Moa bird which was wingless bird that
disappeared from Earth 2000 years ago.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how
big this claw is?
It looks big enough to pick up a grown man.
The Moa was a heavy bird that measured up
to 12 feet in height and it weight nearly
250kg.
They went extinct because of excessive hunting
by humans.
If you want to see this ginormous claw in
person, you can do that at the natural history
museum in New Zealand.
Moving on to number 5 we have a massive finger.
No seriously, take a look at this thing.
This is a huge mummified human looking finger
that measures in at 38 cm in length.
Many people believed that this was a hoax,
but upon further research and examination,
scientists have given it a certificate of
authenticity and x-ray images.
Researchers from Egypt believe that this huge
finger belonged to a creature that was over
5 meters in height.
The owner of the finger was apparently a grave
robber that found this thing while searching
through a tomb in Egypt.
Well hopefully this creature isn’t still
out there roaming the Earth, looking for its
next victim.
Nazca Lines make an appearance in at number
4.
The Nazca Lines are famous world wide that
can be found in the southern desert region
of Peru.
These lines are massive drawings in the soil
that are known as geoglyphs.
These designs were carved sometime around
1-700 AD and some of them are up to 1,200
feet and there are over 300 of them.
The designs are all very different.
Some of them are spirals or they are more
intricate ones that are shaped like animals
or flowers.
They are best seen from above like in a plane
or satellite.
The Nazca Lines were designated as a UNESCO
world heritage site in 1994 but their origins
still remain a massive mystery.
Some archeologists believe that they are used
as some sort of astronomy related purpose,
some believe that they were used in some sort
of ritual and then there are some people who
believe that aliens are behind the Nazca lines.
But no one knows anything for certain.
Mohenjo-Daro lands into our number 3 spot.
This archaeological site is considered to
be one of the best examples of ancient alien
contact.
Ancient astronaut theorists claim that thousands
of years ago, advanced alien civilizations
visited Earth and they set off a lot of nuclear
bombs in order to destroy this city.
The ruins of the city were discovered in 1922
and they were able to see hundreds of skeletons
scattered around the city as if some horrible
event had just taken place.
These bodies were some of the most radioactive
ones ever found and it was believed that this
ancient city in Pakistan was destroyed in
an instant by an incredible explosion that
could have only been by some sort of atomic
bomb.
Which is super strange considering this city
was built in 2600 BC.
Floating into number 2 we have alien skulls.
Residents in a small Mexican village of Onavas
made a shocking discovery while they were
trying to build an irrigation canal.
They found deformed skulls that were warped
into strange looking alien heads in a 1,000-year-old
cemetery.
There were 25 human burials and 13 of them
had these strange looking alien heads.
They thought that these were corpses belonged
to an unknown species.
Their skulls were elongated, pointy at the
back and their teeth were mutilated.
When people came in to investigate this discovery
it was later concluded that these skulls belonged
to humans but their heads were mutilated in
some sort of ancient ritual.
And now in at number 1 things get really creepy
with the Grauballe man.
This corpse looks like he was taken from a
horror movie.
He was discovered in a bog located in Denmark
back in 1952.
Experts believe that his throat had been slit
and his remains were dumped in a bog sometime
in the 3rd century BC which is over 2000 years
ago!
They also believe that he was apart of some
ritualistic human sacrifice.
The Grauballe man is considered to be one
of the best discoveries in Denmark’s prehistory
because his body is exceptionally preserved.
They were even able to take the mans finger
prints because his body was in really good
condition.
Well there you guys have it…
