50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There You are not immune to being brainwashed. People don't get sucked into cults because they are stupid. It could happen to you. Also, **cults are not always religious**, they just often are.

Cults draw you in by making you feel smart and appreciated and loved, they douse you in affection and praise, and then they use your trust in them to isolate you from the voices of reason in your life.

If someone is being super nice to you for a long time, making you feel special, and then they start telling you that you should cut off multiple people in your life, especially if it's the people telling you that something is wrong, that's a red flag. They will tell you that those people are unsupportive and that you don't need people like that in your life. This is a systematic way to cut off any resistance so the only reasoning you will hear is their own. And all the while they will seem so kind and supportive. Do not get sucked into this trap.

50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There I lost my leg to a bug bite that I had no knowledge of getting. One day my ankle swelled up and I thought it was just me getting old. It got progressively worse, this was during covid so I didn't have a lot of options. After being up for a few days from pain and running a fever I went to the emergency room and was diagnosed as having a sprained ankle. They gave me pain medication which helped me sleep. I woke up after 18 hours to blisters under my ace bandage. I don't have any memory of anything until I woke up after my third surgery of them removing more and more of my leg. It was necrotizing fasciitis.

I lost everything from a medical misdiagnosis. I am currently just about starving to death as disability doesn't pay enough even though I worked my whole life and did everything I was supposed to.

A few years ago I found weird footprints in the snow. A hand sized hoof print and a 2nd one 6 ft. apart, the last one was just one barefoot print. Nothing around prints had been disturbed. The snow had nothing around it. Now I recently saw a woman with the same hoof print around her house and she has no idea what they are either. She lives in Tennessee. I take my dogs out any time between 3 am to 4 am and I have had a feeling of get back to the house now. I'm soft yelling at the dogs let's go get inside. I have felt like when I turn around I will see something there as I lock the screen door. We are in the city. We have an apartment just about 12 ft .away. It hasn't happened lately thank goodness. But there was something that happen before the snow foot prints of other barefoot prints. Creepy.

50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There On February 3rd, 1998, twenty people died when a cable car situated near the ski resort town of Cavalese, Italy plummeted to the ground from 260 feet. It was caused when a United States Marine Corps EA-6B Prowler aircraft, which was flying excessively fast and too low during a low-altitude training mission, ultimately severed the cable that supported the cable car as it was descending from Mount Cermis.

The disaster has been named the Strage del Cermis (Massacre of Cermis) in Italy. The pilot, Captain Richard J. Ashby, and his navigator, Captain Joseph Schweitzer, were ultimately deemed not guilty of involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide for their roles in the disaster. However, they were found guilty of obstruction of justice and conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman upon being found to have **destroyed camcorder footage recorded from the plane's cockpit**.

I have always wondered about all the trash on this earth and how we put it in bins, garbage cans, trash cans, and we burn it thinking we are disposing of it properly. But when you really sit back and think about it just because we're putting the trash in a certain spot on the earth doesn't mean we're actually keeping it clean. We're just taking the trash, organizing it putting it somewhere but we're still trashing the earth consistently. Like I guess we feel better about it being organized and not just thrown everywhere across the face of our planet. I remember when I first came to this realization, I was not only mind blowing.

Well ... a few of them, for sure, have been lit up and, likely, a fraction of that has happened in facilities that use the heat of burned trash to make heat for heating, or heat for electricity in an, otherwise, normal thermal power plant. But, as this extends to adults' diapers as well, and cloth is even more unusual there - this will worsen with an ever-aging population, as incontinence issues are a lot more likely the older people are. In Japan, adults' diapers already outsell childrens' variants, which ... well, incontinence due to just being born lasts about 2 or 3 years, incontinence due to something being broken, or worn-up, can last for decades. Advertised, only the disposable ones are, and, tbh, they're a lot better on many accounts. If you, say, travel to work by the week and would wear cloth diapers all week, you'd sum up (if being completely incontinent) at least three per day, more likely four. Let's assume four - you travel home with two days of time and 20+ peed-full cloth diapers, 5+ PVC panties, while disposable ones, you can buy there, usually, and dispose of. Disposable pads in PVC pants, as they're the cheapest option and at least reduce trash, might be a worth a look. Former girlfriend used exactly thse, exactly because they were cheap, and the pads didn't contain any plastics. Or any barrier at all to begin with, but that's too much a detail for this occasion.

50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There L'Angolo de Gigi, the iconic Italian restaurant run by chef Gigi Ferruzo, left an indelible mark on the culinary scene in the capital of Colombia in the 80's, not only for its exquisite flavors but also for the dark rumors that surrounded it. It was said that the gourmet dishes served there, located on the road to La Calera, were prepared with human flesh.

Little is known about Ferruzo because it's known that he was a butcher from a young age and emigrated from Italy to settle in Colombia. Over time, he began associating with influential politicians in the country, and his behavior changed so much that many compared him to a mobster. Rumors spread that these politicians were not only his friends but also the ones supplying the bodies he allegedly used in his cooking, because a supposed former member of the secret police claimed that the bodies from the wars against guerrillas and d**g trafficking were sold to Ferruzo and that, on the day of the Palace of Justice siege, he was allowed to select "the plumpest corpses". To this day, the whereabouts of these people are unknown and that is why one of the theories is that he cooked them and fed them to his diners.

The situation worsened when restaurant employees began to suspect something was wrong, as Ferruzo wouldn't allow anyone else to handle the meat because he claimed it was imported from Italy, sent by his sister, although she later denied this. Eventually, after these rumors circulated, L'Angolo de Gigi closed its doors, and Ferruzo disappeared over 40 years ago, leaving his fate shrouded in mystery. No one knows what happened to him.

When the USS Oklahoma rolled over it trapped sailors inside with no way of rescuing them. Cutting through the hull was impossible, a single gap would have caused the air pocket to collapse and flood the compartment. The workers still heard banging on hull during Christmas, nearly three weeks after the attack and plugged their ears with cotton to drown it out.

The second tidbit is that by the time the workers got the ship upright and drained, workers were only collecting bits and pieces of remains. When caskets of the unknown sailors were exhumed to begin DNA identification they discovered over 100 different strands of DNA from a single coffin.

50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There Prions. Aka a misfolded protein in the brain that causes other proteins to misfold. This literally causes "sponge brain" or large holes in the brain. It is always fatal, and there is no known cure or treatment to slow the progression.

Prion disease can be contagious or genetic. The contagious form cannot be k*lled by extreme heat, meaning that people with prion disease who have to have surgery, those instruments used during surgery cannot be sterilized.

The most prevalent contagious form of prion disease is Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, aka Mad Cow Disease. Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is another common form of prion disease, which affects mostly deer. While there are no human cases of CWD, it is theorized that the disease could be capable of infecting humans.

Prion disease can also be "sporadic" meaning the cause is not genetic or contagious, ultimately unknown. The most common form of prion disease, CJD, is mostly sporadic.

Prion disease can lay dormant in the body for years. But once it is "activated", the average prognosis is about 1 year.

TL;DR: Prions make holes in your brain that you will ultimately die from. It can be contagious, genetic, or idiopathic. Once the disease is active, you have, at most, a couple years to live. There is no cure or treatment to slow the disease at this time.

50 Disturbing Facts To Make You Want To Crawl Under Your Bed And Stay There >In early May of 1898, a ten-year-old boy named Joseph Bufonchio was playing at the corner of Third and Jackson in what was known as the Great Jackson Street Chuckhole—it was eight feet deep and sixteen feet wide. The local children loved to play in these large pools of muck. These children would build rafts and push themselves across these miniature lakes by using poles to push them along. In doing so, at 4:30pm Joseph’s pole got stuck at the bottom of the chuckhole, and he fell in and sank to the bottom. This event was such a huge spectacle that up to 2000 voyeurs watched at what was described as a comical event as men clumsily struggled to retrieve the boy’s body. One by one, they fell into the muddy mess as the crowd cheered and laughed. It wasn’t until Joseph’s father arrived and yelled out to the crowd: “It is my poor boy that has been drowned. Have you no regard for my grief?” Just then, silence fell over the great chuck hole. It wasn’t until 6:00pm that they recovered his body, and he was rushed to a local bathhouse, where Dr. Rogers who theorized was that a body could be revived even after it had been in the water for several hours. He worked on the boy’s body until 9:00pm with no success.

'The rest of your life' when underwater is dramatically shortened, so you need to fix the mistake before your untimely demise.

This is not quite correct. The Gilgi saw was used - serrated wire connected to handles or loops at both ends, allowing the surgeon to pull it back and forth in a sawing motion. It was only used as a last ditch to get the baby out when the mother was not expected to live.
