The video presents five shocking moments captured on camera, each with a dark and mysterious story.
1. The sinking of a South Korean ferry in 2014, where two students recorded their experience as the ship went down, capturing their initial laughter and denial, followed by a desperate attempt to survive. The students were eventually trapped in their cabins, obeying the captain's orders, which ultimately led to their deaths.
2. The murder of Lauren Giddings, a student who was killed by her neighbor, Stephen McDaniel. The video shows Stephen's initial obsession with Lauren, which escalated to spying and eventually murder. Stephen dismembered Lauren's body and threw it away, but his guilt was apparent in an interview where he pretended to be surprised by the news of her death.
3. The mysterious death of Jon Lannan, a man who accused the Fresno police of corruption. Jon claimed that the police were watching him and eventually found evidence to support his claims. However, Jon was found dead in his house, which had been set on fire, with stab wounds in his abdomen and back. The investigation was unable to determine who was responsible for Jon's death.
4. The unsolved case of the Jamison family, who disappeared in 2009. The family's car was found abandoned on the side of the road, with all their belongings still inside, including $32,000 in cash. Four years later, the family's skeletal remains were found, buried next to each other, face down. The police were unable to determine the cause of their death or who was responsible.
5. The disappearance and death of Gaming Lauder, who called emergency services claiming that someone had entered her home. The police found no evidence of forced entry, and Lauder was seen walking her dog later that day. However, she disappeared and was found dead two months later, with no apparent injuries or cause of death. The investigation suggested that Lauder may have had a history of hallucinations and mental health issues, but the exact circumstances of her death remain a mystery.
