  1. I always heard this one called The Cleveland Torso Murderer. Cleveland seems to have a lot of serial killers.

  2. It’s like drinking RAID Shadow Legends.

  3.  @weareheretochange7361  ‘dictators don’t like criticism’. Case in point.

  5. ‘Why aren’t you wearing make up or styling your hair’ I wish I could say we’ve moved on from this. 😓

  6. I think I first got on to Biographics (and then the rest of the Whistler YouTube Empire) after it was suggested following one of their Buzzfeed Unsolved True Crime videos. It’s still my comfort/background watch choice. XD

  7.  @sandrastreifel6452  You'd be surprised. TB is still very much with us and drug resistance is growing.

  9. With the missing teeth thing, did they think they were knocked out because they’d been hit around the head/face, or was it more like an extracting/collecting deal? Also Casual Criminal has gone to my favourite channel! Highly recommend!

  10. You can see why Catholicism would have become so important to her. It was a rock in a world that changed for her very suddenly, and something of her mother's that she could hang on to. Further, in England she was now a bastard, whereas the Catholic world continued to maintain she was heir and princess, and that her parents were still legally married.

  11. Amanda Beaty * Insert promotion of comprehensive sex ed. in schools, widely available contraception, bodily autonomy for women, social safety nets and not making having a child bankrupt you here. *

  12. @Boosted Coyote Yeah, how dare he try to make a living. This is literally his job. If he doesn't have sponsors we don't get videos.

  13. When I was a kid I loved reading everything & anything about ancient Egypt and wanted to be an archaeologist. Then the reality that it’s a highly competitive field and foreigners have a difficult time working there made me choose a different path. But this video made me remember that flame a little. Thanks. 🙂

  14. Absolute power over slaves? Doesn’t sound like he turned that down.

  15. G4-Reincarnated uh... Obviously the married microbiology student.

  16. I hope we get a Biographics video on him.

  17.  @Stanky_Foot  This is YouTube, not Facebook, and that user is obviously a bot. They’ve copy/pasted that comment into almost all the comment threads.

  18. Who knows what really happened? It could have been the above. But they probably wouldn’t write in a chronicle if he was gay or impotent. And they probably wouldn’t even have a word for or concept of asexuality. Otherwise he might have had some hang ups about ‘betrayal’ by a wife after (his view of) his mother’s actions.

  19. @Ab T Uh... You realise there are different categories of Nobel prize, right? Most of those you listed got the Peace prize, not the one for medicine/physiology. Plus I’m not sure why you think ‘Chinese’ should disqualify someone...

  20. Fun fact: No one outside the US actually cares about the revolutionary war. It’s not really taught at all. How much do people in the US think about Indian independence? It’s sort of like that. And no, I’m not British or from the UK.

  21. It puzzled me so much. After what happened with SARS, just... why? What did they even stand to gain with suppression? I know I'm being super tin-foil-hat conspiracy theory, but the one COVID death I do question was that of Li Wenliang

  22. Yeah, my dad was a doctor at the time. I think he went over to the States a bit. He said the climate was really fearful and there was a lot of shaming/blaming etc. Not a good time.

  23. Damn. Kudos to your mum for getting through that. I hope that she’s doing well now.

  24. In Papua New Guinea they had Kuru or ‘ghost disease’ due to the funeral practice of eating relatives.

  25. Might be the real reason his parents wanted to get rid of him.

  26. For the next Tudor-era slot could you do Francis Walsingham, the Queen’s spymaster?

  27. Probably glad they didn’t have her childhood.

  28. David Aspinall Actually I’d really like to see that. I used to live in Ballarat. Geographics, maybe.

  29. Once people get a taste of power they get addicted to it. They want more and are terrified of losing any they have.

  30. Awesome! I’d been waiting for this one. I knew you’d have to cover him at some point. Thanks! It’d be pretty cool to have a Decoding the Unknown video on him as well about all the crazier conspiracy theories (some of which might be true).
    13
  31. Yeah, this isn’t playing out across the world right now. Nope.

  32.  @Lovely2291  They’re a bot. They’ve copy/pasted that comment into every single comment thread.

  33. I’m not sure promoting hate is exactly a great way into the future.
    12
  34.  @hellequin.303  Yeah, was going to say this. In a just, sane world we wouldn’t be killing each other.

  35. He never says that everyone hated Lenin or that everyone loved the Romanovs. I think he’s being pretty neutral to be honest.

  36. kickflipking06 Bernie Sanders if he had Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping’s methods of getting things done. It’s actually really interesting. I personally think Long’s policies were great and incredibly forward thinking. They attempted to tackle things that are still huge issues in the US today. The methods, on the other hand, not so great. I don’t know. I think democracy is incredibly important, and needs to be upheld at all costs. However as Simon pointed out in another video in authoritarian countries like China they can afford to have long-game plans and goals decades in the future. Terms and need for re-election can hamstring governments because they always have to be thinking about the next election, and far reaching plans that won’t be completed for ages (and may be scrapped if the government changes: see Australia’s NBN rollout) don’t get as much voter attention as short term goals etc. It’s a difficult issue. No idea how it could be solved.

  37.  @Simonsvids  I'd say most people these days would agree that women and men should have equal rights, and are therefore feminists.

  38. It’s two different production teams. Simon doesn’t always choose them. From what I gather sometimes he suggests, but otherwise the team chooses & he reads what lands in front of him. True crime videos on Biographics always get a lot of hits, so saying ‘only Casual Criminalist can cover people who do crime’ is a bit of a shot to the foot. Plus there are people who only watch one channel.

  39.  @thebrocialist8300  You realise 'coronavirus' comes from the Latin 'corona' ('crown' or 'wreath'), right? Also they speak Spanish in Mexico, not 'Mexican'. Come on, I'm from Australia & I know this. But yeah, back to the original comment, Australia begins to ease restrictions from tomorrow & I'm pretty worried there will be a resurgence. We've down to less than 20 new cases per day for a few weeks, but that's going to change if we're not careful how we do this...

  40.  @beckobert  Yeah, they're been authoritarian capitalist for a while now.

  41. ‘Outside the bowl of chaos was brimming with drift-snow and as I lay in the sleeping-bag beside my dead companion I wondered how, in such conditions, I would manage to break and pitch camp single-handed. There appeared to be little hope of reaching the Hut, still 100 miles away.’ Intrigued? No, it’s not something out of Lovecraft. It’s actually a diary entry from a very real Antarctic expedition that (by coincidence) was name dropped in Lovecraft’s ‘At the Mountains of Madness’. Still intrigued? Then let me formally place my request for a Biographics episode on Sir Douglas Mawson, an Australian geologist, explorer, and academic. Also the face on our $100 bill. This groundbreaking expedition is only one event in a very eventful life.

  43. Mark Silas You realise you have to suggest them before the day they’re uploaded, right?

  44. Could you cover Operation Paperclip and Operation Matchbox on either Side Projects or Megaprojects?

  45. As someone from overseas I’d really like to hear about more Native American/First Nations figures. You probably get taught about them in school there, but we don’t hear as much about it.

  46. I still think he did it. His story was shaky as anything. Although I don’t think polygraphs prove anything either, so who knows.

  47. A story with sexual assault but it's the anteater that makes you uncomfortable and sad.

  48. I’m really surprised prohibition was one thing not subject to ‘state’s rights’ with a bunch of states just refusing to do it.

  49. d puski By what possible metric?

  50. This is actually one I really, really wanted to hear (even though I know I disagree with basically everything she did and stands for).
