#UNSOLVED PIRATE MYSTERIES SERIES#

More than likely just an amateur film about two students' exploration of an abandoned asylum, the 'Pennhurst Found Footage' has yet to be attributed to a filmmaker or individual. After Chip-chan's apartment was found via Google Earth sleuthing, concerned parties contacted the police in Seoul who said they were aware of a mentally disturbed woman who kept to herself except for occasional appearances at anti-government protests where she would photograph police officers. She claims that a Korean police officer she calls 'P' implanted something called a 'Verichip' in her that keeps her forcibly in her apartment and can cause her to fall asleep at will. Over years, internet detectives pieced together a dossier of information on Chip-chan, including her contact e-mail and exchanges with the woman herself. If someone comes that paralyzes the person. The woman apparently never left the apartment and started making signs that were translated into various paranoid accusations like: 'Don't get tricked, don't get fooled. She kept a blog and a YouTube channel where she told her odd story. The woman, dubbed Chip-chan, was constantly broadcasting on webcam and falling asleep at odd times and in odd positions. The woman woke up 10 hours later, and revealed that she had merely been sleeping in an odd position, but the attention of the internet had been piqued. The stream was coming from Seoul, South Korea. In 2008, on a 4chan board for paranormal posts, a user put a link into the 'unsecured webcams' thread that showed a live-stream of a woman who was unconscious - possibly even dead - in a contorted position. If you look at the bottom left of the Skinny Bob video, the timecode appears to be flashing at a different rate than the footage, suggesting a digital post-production trick.Įven if the ivan0135 tapes probably aren't actual aliens (just like Roswell was most certainly not an extraterrestrial craft), the computer animation skill on display is an impressive work of special effects that has still gone uncredited for five years.

Is it real? The videos claim the footage was collected between 19, but post-production techniques seem to have been applied. The uploaded information and film footage introduces us to a purported test subject known as 'Skinny Bob,' who appears to be an eerily realistic alien life form.

In 2011, a new YouTube user named 'ivan0135' uploaded a series of four videos that claimed to have been culled from leaked classified material. One of America's most well-known conspiracy theories - that an alien ship crash-landed in Roswell, New Mexico, in the 1950s - is still giving willing theorists thrills more than 50 years later. The most current thinking on the subject suggests it was someone within the Chicago Broadcasting Community because the technology required to pull off a huge microwave hack wasn't available to the average consumer in the late 1980s. Occasionally, the wide world of the internet will stumble across a character that seems like they could have pulled off the Max Headroom hack, only to dismiss the theory later. The identity of the hackers and what the videos mean beyond a simple joke remain a mystery to this day. The clip ended with the Max Headroom mask-wearer pulling down his pants, receiving a spanking from an unidentified person in a French maid outfit, and yelling 'They're coming to get me!' The WTTW broadcast was being sent from the Sears Tower microwave dish and because there were no technicians on duty at the time, they were unable to trace the signal.

That same night, PBS member station WTTW fell victim to the same hackers during a broadcast of the Doctor Who episode 'Horror of Fang Rock.' This time, the pirates were able to cut in for a full 90 seconds, and used the time to spout advertising slogans and seeming nonsense. Technicians at the station managed to halt the pirated broadcast by switching the microwave transmitter they were using to broadcast, suggesting a hack by a strong pirate microwave signal nearby. After turning black for 15 seconds, the picture reappeared but now showed a person wearing a Max Headroom mask, situated in front of a rotating piece of corrugated metal and accompanied by a humming noise.

One of the most notorious pirate broadcasts of all time, preserved well beyond its intended lifespan, occurred on November 22, 1987, during a Chicago station's nightly local news broadcast.
