This Instagram Account Shares Weird Facts And Here Are The 50 Of The Creepiest Ones
Interview With Expert
Has anyone ever tried to convince you that we’re living in a simulation? Have you ever seen an extremely persuasive video claiming the world is flat? And how do you feel about the video of the 1969 moon landing?
Reality is stranger than fiction, so dozens of events occur every day that are almost impossible to believe. At the same time, new conspiracy theories are constantly being developed.
So, to explore some of these curiosities, we took a trip to @ConspiracyFeedIG on Instagram. This account features fascinating true stories and theories that cannot be proven.
But whether you believe what you read here or not, these pics are great conversation starters!
Enjoy scrolling through, and keep reading to find conversations between Bored Panda and Danielle Mercy, host of The Rabbit Hole Podcast, and Greg Taylor, founder of Daily Grail.

Many in the older generation still make sacrifices for the benefit of others. Japanese still remember how to work together. Even younger people (high school kids, college students) volunteered to help clean up the areas destroyed by the tsunami and earthquake recently, especially at homes where the elderly lived.
While this list features more stories that claim to be true than fringe theories, the @ConspiracyFeedIG account does says that it’s dedicated to sharing “mind-blowing theories,” so we wanted to delve deeper into some of those theories right here.
We reached out to Danielle Mercy, host of The Rabbit Hole Podcast, to find out more about conspiracy theories and where they come from. “Typically, conspiracy theories come from inconsistent stories,” the host says. “When the evidence is suggesting one thing, while the conclusion that is being published says another.”

The fire started in Noah's bedroom that he shared with his sister. There was no time for him to think about alerting his parents. He just grabbed his sister and went out the window. There may have been a smoke detector in the hallway, but by the time it beeped, Noah and his sister could have already been injured or killed. I think we should focus more on the fact that this kid acted heroically rather than making up things about his parents, since we don't know the facts.

So should we be taking conspiracy theories seriously? “It is important to look at all the facts of the theory before you decide if you believe it,” Danielle noted. “Not every conspiracy theory is true, but a lot of them are.”
“There have been many theories proven true. It is up to each person if they take a theory seriously or not,” she continued. “I think it depends on the amount of research that the person has put into the theory.”

However, I do not believe they will release information on all the theories. We probably won’t get answers on most of them.”

Test post. I've tried to comment on this twice but the comments haven't appeared. Third time's a charm, right? EDIT: yes it is! Anyway, the above picture is an 1868 illustration showing a fictional depiction of the immurement of a nun. There is an illustration of Mesfewi's immurement on his Wiki page, along with more details. He was initially sentenced to be crucified but that was changed to beheading after an international outcry. However, public sentiment in Marrakesh was for him to suffer, so every day for four weeks he was taken to the market place and publicly flogged with a thorny acacia rod. It was then decided to immure him in a wall at the public bazaar, both because of the heinous nature of his crimes and as a warning to others. He most likely died from a combination of blood loss from the floggings, shock, and dehydration.

More info: After being convicted, Mesfewi was initially sentenced to be crucified on May 2, 1906. Due to international outcry, the sentence was changed to beheading. However, public sentiment in Marrakesh was for him to suffer so every day he was led from his cell, into the market square, and lashed ten times with a rod made from thorny acacia, for four weeks. It was finally decided because of the heinous nature of his crimes and as a warning for all, Mesfewi would be walled up alive in the Marrakesh marketplace bazaar on June 11, 1906.

They thought of that, or at least the possibility of him breaking the freshly-laid bricks down while the mortar was still wet, so he was chained to the wall.

“Unfortunately, when it comes to a conspiracy theory, you can’t trust any mainstream media source,” she added. “Unless you want to debunk the theory. The mainstream is trying to push the narrative that they created.”
“To research further, you must go to the blogs, the podcasts, the rumble videos, that don’t have huge corporate oversight to get the information,” Danielle shared. “And even if you do that, you must compare the information you are finding. Follow money trails. Researching conspiracy theories isn’t for the weak. You have to dig to get the information.”

Finally, Danielle added that, “It’s okay to just be curious about conspiracy theories. You don’t have to believe them to research them. When I started, it wasn’t because I was a conspiracy theorist, I was genuinely curious about the theories. In doing more research, I find that I believe a lot more theories, but that wasn’t why I started. And not any one source will give you all the information. So dig!”

We were also able to get in touch with Greg Taylor, founder of Daily Grail, to hear his perspective on this topic. "Conspiracy theories have no doubt existed across the world, and throughout human history - as a social creature, we have in-groups and out-groups that always have imbalances of power, as well as strange/bad things that happen to us that people want to explain, or at least blame someone for," he told Bored Panda.
"As such, people have always suggested that other people are doing bad things in secret. Sometimes they have evidence for what is an actual conspiracy - but a lot of the time they arise purely out of speculation and distrust, or bigotry, with a goal of making sense of the strange/bad thing, and finding a scapegoat for it," Greg explained. "That is why conspiracy theories quite often become more popular during difficult or unsettled times."

"As famed writer Alan Moore once noted, 'The main thing that I learned about conspiracy theory, is that conspiracy theorists believe in a conspiracy because that is more comforting. The truth of the world is that it is actually chaotic. The truth is that it is not The Illuminati, or The Jewish Banking Conspiracy, or the Gray Alien Theory. The truth is far more frightening - nobody is in control. The world is rudderless,'" Greg shared.
He also says that conspiracy theories should be taken seriously in two different ways. "Firstly, if there is solid evidence behind a conspiracy theory, then there would be an actual need to address the conspiracy that is happening. But secondly, spurious conspiracy theories have, historically, led to some very awful things happening to groups of people who became the scapegoats of a conspiracy theory," Greg explained. "For example, the 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion' contributed to awful persecutions of Jewish people in the 20th century... literal genocide."

So is Greg convinced of any of these theories? "I try not to be 'believe' in any conspiracy theory, but I am willing to listen to evidence and decide if it should at least be entertained as a possibility," he shared. "By their very nature, I think unless they can be undeniably proven to be a conspiracy (and therefore no longer a 'conspiracy theory'), then they are always going to sit on a spectrum of plausibility. As author Robert Anton Wilson once put it, 'I don't believe anything, but I have many suspicions.'"

Though trade between Vikings and Abbasid is documented, the inscription and origin of this ring is in dispute.

Runic inscriptions have been found in at least two places in the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. They likely were put there by members of the Varangian Guard (q.v.).

Everyone who is old enough to remember 911 knows exactly where they were when they heard what had happened at that time on that day.
On the one hand, Greg says many conspiracy theories can be disproved with evidence.
"[For example], someone not being in the place they were claimed to be at. However, many others rely on 'facts' that are unprovable - they are purely speculation," he noted. "In those cases, you often can't disprove any of it. Those conspiracy theories are instead more akin to beliefs, and I'm not sure any rational, logical breakdown of them will work to dissuade the believers."
"In fact, even the former - when there is evidence to disprove the theory - won't make a difference if someone really wants to believe in the conspiracy theory," Greg added. "I have quite calmly refuted QAnon-related 'facts' to believers, only for them to completely ignore it (or in some cases, even find a way to make that refutation even more evidence for the conspiracy!)."

I seem to recall a hangman's platform that once the inmate stepped on the platform it triggered a counter weight timer to open the platform. Make the criminal do it.
So how can someone research a conspiracy theory if they want more information? "Firstly, and perhaps most importantly, is to approach the research with an eye on your own biases and how they might affect your interpretation of any facts," Greg says. "It is very easy to pattern match things that aren't actually connected if your mind already has an image overlay for the pattern."
"To quote Robert Anton Wilson again, 'Don't buy into your own belief system, or B.S.' It's probably the leading reason for people falling into believing misinformation: wanting a conspiracy theory to be true so that it agrees with what you believe (or at least want to believe)."

Mental illness. These sort of abuse cases usually involve a pair. The abuse starts small, but each abuser moves the goal posts a little each day and then it becomes normalized for the other, who then moves the goals posts a bit more. It becomes a reinforcing spiral with little to stop it except the eventual death of the victim. At which point, the abusers are typically shocked by the victim's death.

I have been on a Patient Safety Committee and Critical Incident Teams for a large health care system, this is true or worse. Understand that "errors" are encompassing, e.g. a pharmacist dispenses the wrong medication etc, etc. People pick nits over classifications of "errors" and who is to blame. Staff received training on how to effectively explain an "error" and apologize because it reduced lawsuits or the magnitude of them. This was a few years back but my understanding is that it still holds true.

Blair admitted at trial to having obtained a form of se**al pleasure from making the hoax calls but insisted he had not intended to cause distress; he also claimed to be an alcoholic with an obsessive–compulsive disorder and thus not responsible for his actions. He insisted he had never met Amy and that he actually knew nothing about her disappearance. Susan herself expressed disbelief at Blair's actions, stating to the press: "I just don't understand why he pinpointed me and Amy. There has to be a reason."[15] Susan later settled a $5 million lawsuit against Blair, adding he had never apologized to her for his campaign of harassment.

In the UK, there was a serial killer, Peter Sutcliffe, known as the Yorkshire Ripper. He murdered 13 women. During the investigation, the police started receiving audio tapes from a man with a Geordie (Newcastle) accent, taunting them about how useless they were. The officer in charge ended up completely going down this route of investigation, which meant other women died while they chased someone who was making hoax calls. They didn't find the caller until many years later. He claimed he was an alcoholic and didn't mean any harm, it was just a drunk thing.

Answering my own question: "He tormented Susan for over twenty years, often calling her through pay phones. However, in 1995, he used a cell phone to make the harassing calls. FBI agents were finally able to trace the call to a man named Henry Johnson Blair, who worked for the U.S. Customs Department. He claimed that his obsessive-compulsive disorder and alcoholism caused him to harass Susan. He later claimed to never know Amy. He was sentenced to a two-year prison term for harassment and lost a suit to Susan, who received a five-million-dollar settlement." From unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Amy_Billig

No. This would be the case when travelling at 99.5% of light speed. Time dilation doesn't stop there though, it increased dramatically the closer you get to light speed. At light speed itself, time stops passing altogether: although your spaceship still takes time to reach its destination, you'd experience your arrival as instantaneous. As such, things like "spend five years in space" are meaningless at light speed.

Time Dilation. It's a relationship between speed and the perceived passage of time that we've been able to measure. One example is the Hafele–Keating experiment (1971) where four atomic clocks were placed aboard commercial aircraft and flown around the world twice (both eastward and westward). When the clocks were compared to identical clocks which had remained stationary the difference was consistent with that predicted mathematically.

His music is amazing, but he was 28 when he died in 2018, not 27.

He also had ice cream as last meal and saved some to eat after he comes back from his execution as he stated. Such cases should rise the question about the morality of any justice system
GhostlySnail (she/her) 1 year ago
He also did not commit the crime he was executed for. If Wikipedia is to be trusted, he “was falsely convicted and wrongfully executed for the 1936 rape and murder of Dorothy Drain, a 15-year-old girl in Pueblo, Colorado. He was manipulated by the police to make a false confession due to his mental incapacities.”

Interestingly fails to mention that he is now widesly recognized as having been falsely convicted and executed. Another man had already been convicted and executed for the same crime before Arridy, his confession is believed to have been coerced and manipulated, which would not have been difficult given his cognitive limitations, and he was posthumously pardoned in 2011. But this case would be eggregious even if he had been guilty.

I am fully against the death sentence, because far too many people (especially in the USA, and usually African-Americans) have been found innocent after it was too late.

I completely agree with you. The criminal justice system is too unreliable, too corrupt, and too racist to be making irreversible decisions.

He murdered two elderly people so that he could steal their money (from the first) and Social Security check (from the second.) I'm not sure that anyone should feel bad that he didn't get SpaghettiOs for his last meal.

Two very ill children tried to kill their friend because they were very ill. They are still in hospital to the best of my knowledge. Slenderman, a character made up by a bunch of people on an internet forum and turned into a creepypasta, is completely independent of this - if not Slenderman, then any other fictional character would have been used. These kids were very very ill.

I honestly think that so many "writers" of these types of lists/articles submit them hastily, with no proofreading or editing at all. Research, grammar, spelling and sentence structure seem like low priorities, or perhaps dying arts. I look at these with that in mind, for better or worse. I like to sift through the inaccuracies and prejudices to find that truthful core, if it exists. I think Bored Panda is pretty fun overall--they're just trying to stay alive too, right?

The technology to safely freeze is much more advanced than the technique for defrosting.
Ryan Mercer 1 year ago
Only their heads are frozen. Saves space. But legally, you can't freeze someone until they are declared deceased. The assumption is that future technology can regrow their body and revive their brain. That's a whole lot of hoping. I mean, even if such a future exists, what are the odds the company goes belly up first? Or just pockets the money and never makes good on the contract? It's like selling someone land on the moon.

Clearly it is not the same. Antifreeze is probably infused. The tomato does that because frozen water (aka ice) is sharp (and expands) and bursts cell walls.

You know, I really recommend not making sweeping statements, proclamations, and stereotypical personifications about a country that you don't live in. I'm sure you don't like it when other people (perhaps from the USA) do it about whatever country you live in, so how about you don't do it about other countries? Is that too much for you?

I went there when I went to LA about 12 years ago. I was in my early 20s and had a lot more confidence than sense back then. It did mess me up for weeks afterwards, fortunately enough for me I have never been able to sleep well throughout my life, so at least the lack of sleep didn't come as much of a shock to the system.

No it didnt. it was not 9 feet, they estimates from height put him at approximately 8 feet. Later it came out it was Ri Myung-hun, a former North Korean national basketball team player, who is 7'9". He was good enough that NBA teams wanted him, but US laws about North Koreans placed a restriction that no money he earned could go back to North Korea under the Trading with the Enemy Act, so North Korea prohibited him from playing the NBA and retracting his foreign permits. He only played in North Korea or in international tournaments for North Korea.

Coming out of the Super-X food store in Vero Beach Florida..auto doors open, Spider crab standing there (12" tall), raises his claws for defense due to the door startling it. My GF, now wife, from Michigan runs screaming back into the store.

I remember one time, my family and I were down at the beach, when it was low tide. My mom saw something that caught her eye, thinking it was a shell or something, she picked it up. Not expecting it to be alive, nevermind it having the long a*s creepy legs, as it was a Spider Crab. She immediately put it down and started running and screaming. We thought it was hilarious. 😂

I'm not sure why but this reminds me of a local area to me that defies the laws of gravity. It was right off an off-ramp of the highway and you were to pull off onto the grass. This little area was slightly downhill but yet if you put your car in neutral, it would go backwards up the hill. Craziest thing but I have personally tested this out with different cars/trucks and it would always happen. Unfortunately, in the past few years they put up guardrails so you can't do it anymore, with a car anyway.

The Necronomicon is fictional. There are books bound in human skin, 18 to be exact that are confirmed, mostly by physicians as they had access to cadavers. One was requested that way by the author and it's bound in his skin. A weird 19th century physicians curiosity mixed with a story.

Paul Burrell is a bullshitter. This note was published in a book he wrote about Diana and if real, then why wait six years to publish it? He's made a career out of selling stories about Diana and even sold some of her possessions. He claims that he and Diana were best friends but then talks about the intimate parts of her life to the highest bidder. Every now and again he'll make some new claim about Diana.
