1
00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:08.400
And on this occasion I would like
to share with you some of those experiences

2
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:15.000
that within the Community of the Crypt, these fishermen and these sailors who work

3
00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:25.440
day by night with storm and the
sunlight the open sea. We begin with

4
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:31.359
the following story, which makes it
very clear to us that the lives lost

5
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:39.640
in the ocean may never go away. Perhaps the people who bind themselves to

6
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:49.159
this mystical place do not get rest. Maybe they want to drag more people

7
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:59.359
to their very end, like the
next story. My name is Miguel Carranza.

8
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:08.040
My experience goes back to my years
of youth Verán. I was born

9
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:15.799
in Mexico and spent a long time
in my childhood, mostly in places like

10
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:22.599
Acapulco, Calcún. I visited many
tourist places more than anything, places that

11
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:27.599
had beach. My mother moved because
of that category of hotels and when I

12
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:34.840
already went out to work somewhere,
inevitably she took me too. As you

13
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.239
know, as a child I was
in the water, I learned to swim

14
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.560
from a very early age and as
I grew older. I was very attracted

15
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:49.079
to the profession of being a fisherman. I met a number of people who

16
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.400
did that and when I turned eighteen
and finally finished high school, I decided

17
00:01:55.599 --> 00:02:00.920
to mess with my uncle what he
was doing. I' d been working

18
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:06.760
with him for about a week.
Even by this time I had not gone

19
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:12.560
out into the open sea much less
so close to the beach. All he

20
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:16.280
did was check everything they fished,
keep the accounts and also pack all the

21
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:23.319
merchandise, as well as clean the
fish, prepare them and other things.

22
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:30.439
He had gone fishing, but nothing
from the other world, no work like

23
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:35.280
a fisherman' s, no work
like the one he took inside a professional

24
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:42.759
fishing boat. Just the day my
uncle decided it was time for me to

25
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:49.560
go out with him on the boat, this happened. The sea is very

26
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:58.120
volatile. I learned that from my
years of fishing. The forecast might tell

27
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.280
you it' s going to be
a sunny day. The truth is,

28
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:07.639
when you' re in the water, everything can change in fraction of minutes.

29
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:15.199
At that time I was preparing myself
at the port. I was getting

30
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:19.199
ready All the boats were moored.
When that' s what my uncle comes

31
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.039
up to me and tells me we' re gonna wait at least three more

32
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:28.280
hours. It didn' t matter
if we were dating later than planned.

33
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:36.479
I asked him why I was curious
how we were going out later. Well,

34
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:42.000
my uncle is an old sea wolf, as popularly said. He told

35
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:50.000
me there were no seagulls and that
the animals on the coast were behaving in

36
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:55.319
a very strange way. That only
meant that there was going to come a

37
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:59.960
change of time, a change of
time that I didn' t know how

38
00:03:59.960 --> 00:04:04.080
to make. He was going to
be very volatile or maybe a small one,

39
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:08.879
but he didn' t want to
risk it. I was confused because

40
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:15.919
just yesterday I had seen the forecast
and they didn' t predict rain,

41
00:04:15.720 --> 00:04:24.519
in fact, they predicted a sunny
day when my uncle was actually right in

42
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:31.079
fraction of some half an hour,
some thirty- two minutes, minutes more

43
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:38.959
minutes less. The sky began to
cloud and it began to rain in a

44
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:44.120
very strong way. The sea began
to behave in a very abrupt way,

45
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:50.839
so much so that I had to
leave several times to the side also other

46
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:56.319
fishermen. We were all looking after
more than anything, all the boats,

47
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:01.399
all the boats, from the smallest
to the largest. We couldn' t

48
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:06.160
let the water, that the sea, that the ocean, drag them to

49
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:13.839
the open sea. I want you
to imagine the landscape going out from time

50
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:18.040
to time to check effectively, that
everything was well tied, as the air

51
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:25.319
was very strong and the water was
rising more and more was with the moorings.

52
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:33.879
When I suddenly begin to hear something
singular. I was wearing my raincoat.

53
00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:40.079
But despite the sound of the rain, despite the sound of the wind

54
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:48.279
of the waves hitting in different parts, I began to hear the screams of

55
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:56.879
a woman, also screams of a
man, also the crying of a child.

56
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:03.560
It was like a family was asking
for help. He couldn' t

57
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:09.759
grasp, which was what they meant. But if I caught the screams,

58
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:15.480
the cries of agony they gave,
this caught my attention and I began to

59
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:20.560
sharpen my ear. I wanted to
grasp where they came from. Was he

60
00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:28.839
turning towards the palapas that were farther
away? I was turning towards the beach,

61
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:34.480
but there was nothing, there was
not a single person, no person

62
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:42.720
I could hear a scream coming from. At that moment I discovered I took

63
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:46.160
off my hat, which I had
invaluable to start listening to better my whole

64
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:55.160
environment. And it is at this
moment that I begin to hear more clearly

65
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:02.279
that these cries, that these tears
of difference, people came from the water,

66
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:08.720
came from that sea so volatile that
I saw. It was as if

67
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:15.879
people were among the sea asking for
help. I started to see the sea,

68
00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:23.399
but I didn' t see anything. I only saw those gray waves

69
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:30.519
with a totally cloudy sky, with
rain falling. It was a very scary

70
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:40.079
thing to say. It gave me
the creeps just to think of meeting me

71
00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:44.240
down there. It wasn' t
one of the best swimming positions. And,

72
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:48.560
in addition, in such storms the
sea drags you with an ease that

73
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:55.319
is very difficult to understand for those
who are not experienced or who do not

74
00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:01.639
know how to swim. My gut
told me I had to get you back

75
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:03.160
to the corporal. I had already
done my job, I had secured the

76
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:13.639
ties, but I had a certain
feeling that something bad was going to happen

77
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.120
and it didn' t take long. I was walking back when in that

78
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:24.480
I see that in the water there
is something yellow that strikes me. By

79
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:31.120
paying more attention to it, I
see that it is a raincoat or an

80
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:35.120
equal to mine. I start looking
with my eyes and in that I realize

81
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:41.399
who' s down there, who' s the person who' s going

82
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:46.679
into the water. It was about
toño, he was a boy about my

83
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:54.440
age. He' d just walked
in, too. I had significantly more,

84
00:08:54.519 --> 00:09:01.399
but the difference was only days.
I, seeing Toño I yell at

85
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:07.240
him that what he is doing in
the water, that the sea can pull

86
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:13.600
him out, that he comes out
as fast as possible, that he needed

87
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:20.919
a lifeguard or something toño, just
as I could swim very well, but

88
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:28.279
what he answered did nothing else,
but alert me more. Toño told me

89
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:37.840
that he could see a girl who
was among the waves struggling to keep swimming

90
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:43.960
and that he was going to rescue
her. In fact, he asked me

91
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:46.960
that maybe you' re not hearing
it. I, for that moment,

92
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:54.480
heard nothing of the crying. The
screams had stopped for me, but apparently,

93
00:09:54.919 --> 00:10:01.919
for him he still listened to them
at the time, all he has

94
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.000
to do is go after my uncle
and the other fishermen who, for my

95
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:11.840
luck, were nearby. They were
in a nearby canteen, in a bar

96
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:20.639
restaurant where they were having breakfast when
they told them that Toño had entered the

97
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.879
water and that he was swimming.
In the midst of this storm, everyone

98
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:33.879
immediately left everything without exception, including
fishermen from other boats. My uncle was

99
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:37.799
the one who came first. He
told Toño to come out of the water,

100
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:45.200
to come back, but he told
him the same thing. I have

101
00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:52.080
to find the girl. She'
s struggling to survive that maybe you don

102
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.600
' t see her. My uncle, like me, saw nothing at the

103
00:10:54.799 --> 00:11:05.000
time. I remember the fishermen'
s face very well. They were all

104
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:11.679
looking at each other with a face
of terror and some of confusion. My

105
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:16.200
uncle told me to help him land
a little boat they had at hand.

106
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:24.960
We landed her, we got into
the sea and I had Toño on it.

107
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:30.840
I knew where I was. I
hadn' t taken my eyes off

108
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:35.799
him. We were on the boat
and as soon as we got close to

109
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:43.679
his position. Autumn just disappeared.
It was as if the water had swallowed

110
00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:50.799
it. We started to circle around. I was telling my uncle that this

111
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:56.679
was the place that he couldn'
t swim so fast. At that time,

112
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:03.240
two fishermen who were with us dived
into the ocean and only in that

113
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:11.799
way managed to get Toño out again. Autumn was desperate, he was short

114
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:20.279
of breath. Apparently, he was
submerged by the fishermen again helped him out

115
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:26.399
to the surface, but this was
not left there. Toño was raising the

116
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:35.279
boat, but something, something was
preventing Toño from saying over and over again

117
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.200
he' s pulling me, he' s pulling me, he' s

118
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:43.639
pulling me. We were very confused. Who' s pulling you. Autumn

119
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:50.600
already climbed to the boat, but
genuinely I saw his arms straining and we

120
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:58.080
were all pulling something in his legs
that were still inside the sea, pulling

121
00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:05.360
it down. At that moment I
grabbed one of the toño legs so I

122
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:13.919
could lift it up and saw that
the ankle had another pair of hands holding

123
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:20.679
it tightly. It was like there
was a person down in the water trying

124
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:28.799
to sink it. I didn'
t want Toño out of there. I

125
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:33.159
saw her hands and as soon as
I approached her, I took the tone

126
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:39.840
leg to pull her up. I
saw a face coming under the water.

127
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:48.559
It was a cadaveric face. He
had long hair, long blond hair and

128
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.960
features, or at least the little
I saw of his factions, since almost

129
00:13:54.000 --> 00:14:03.799
entirely he could say it was a
skull. This was feminine. She was

130
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:09.759
like a woman who was under the
water for good luck as a ton and

131
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:16.840
so was I. This thing let
him loose like he gave up. Finally,

132
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:24.200
when we went up to Toño and
again we were in the port,

133
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:30.320
he told us something that to me
and apart from the fishermen, especially the

134
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:35.320
most inexperienced, the new ones,
made our skin rise, caused us to

135
00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:46.840
cause a chill. Autumn explains that
she had seen a girl in the distance

136
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:54.039
asking for help. Moreover, he
could also hear it without thinking about it.

137
00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:00.960
Twice he got into the water,
threw the raincoat, samboiled and went

138
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:07.240
straight to her. Once she was
with her, because Toño says she was

139
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:13.840
able to hold her, he could
embrace her already headed back to the port

140
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:20.559
with her in his arms. She
says that at the time of taking the

141
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:26.360
child, this strange little girl hugged
him tightly. Toño doesn' t explain

142
00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:33.720
how it happened, but it was
as if this girl weighed a lot,

143
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:41.240
as if she weighed here the kilos
and kilos and as time increased, this

144
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:46.840
girl weighed more so much that Toño
sank. He sank in the company of

145
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:52.919
that girl says that when he was
already submerging, when he saw that he

146
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:58.480
could not leave, he says that
when he saw that the water was getting

147
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:07.279
higher than him and he had difficulty
swimming to the surface, he released this

148
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:10.559
girl. But this girl didn'
t let go of him. This girl

149
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:17.279
took him by the foot and kept
submerging him and submerging him to the bottom.

150
00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:22.000
It was at that time that the
other fishermen got in and helped him

151
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.600
up to the surface, but they
say it is but Toño explains that,

152
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:33.639
even though they were helping him,
that girl was not letting go of him.

153
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:38.600
To top off this story, fishermen
and well say they didn' t

154
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:48.480
see any girl, they said they
did feel like something was submerging Toño,

155
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:55.360
like a force or something with a
lot of weight. I was pulling him

156
00:16:55.399 --> 00:17:00.000
more and more and more so that
they two together with both forces, they

157
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:06.000
had to rescue him. Sure,
there' s also what I lived,

158
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:11.559
what I could see. This I
didn' t tell them, this I

159
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:15.920
only told my uncle, what I
could see in the water, what I

160
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:23.759
was holding it. My uncle just
explained to me that, in effect,

161
00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:32.599
those things happen and that that'
s why you have to be very careful

162
00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:37.839
at sea. Me or something astounded. I asked my uncle about other similar

163
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:45.640
experiences. He just with his head
told me yes straight away. I asked

164
00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:51.799
him then, Uncle, what we
saw there. It' s a mermaid.

165
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:59.119
My uncle just drew a half smile
on his face and told me not

166
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:04.319
everything you see in the movies happens
in the ocean. He explained to me

167
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:11.000
that the ocean is a driving element. He told me they did a test

168
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:17.720
and I think you can do it
too. Water itself is an element that

169
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:22.359
can help you disinfect, which can
also help you heal a wound, but

170
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:32.720
it can also kill you. You
can put any container in the shape of

171
00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:37.160
it. You' ll see that
the water takes the form of this one.

172
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:44.359
If there is a path smaller than
this one or larger or for more

173
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:52.240
imperfections than it has, the water
will find the way to how to get

174
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:59.880
to this one and how to dock
to this one. Many lives have been

175
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:04.720
lost in the ocean, but this
is not why the whole ocean is haunted.

176
00:19:07.759 --> 00:19:17.839
My uncle believes that there are certain
currents or certain storms that attract this

177
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:22.640
kind of spirits, because, as
he said, water is a driving element

178
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:32.200
and just as it drives animals,
it leads life, because water, in

179
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:38.440
its entirety, is life. Thanks
to the water, life developed. It

180
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:49.799
can also move other energies, such
as evil spirits that reside within the water.

181
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:57.000
Not only does he believe this.
Many fishermen believe it, in fact,

182
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:04.839
the oldest and the most experienced all
believe this. I, while no

183
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:11.200
longer a fisherman, have to say
that after this experience I had a lot

184
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:18.160
of respect for the ocean, the
sea. And, if that were not

185
00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:25.640
enough, it should be said that
that storm that had started so volatilely and

186
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:36.880
suddenly so suddenly also calmed down it
was as if it had only lasted a

187
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:42.359
few four hours, the sun rose
again as if nothing had happened. This

188
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:48.680
also helped me to keep in mind
to be prepared at all times, as

189
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:55.680
it is not known when the sea
will be on your side offering you a

190
00:20:55.799 --> 00:21:02.160
very but very rich fishing of many
fish and when it will also be against

191
00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:11.960
you that has also sometimes turned boats
and has disappeared all the crew from one

192
00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:25.680
boat from moment to moment. From
a very young age, he met the

193
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:30.799
ocean, met the different types of
fish, learned to swim from a very

194
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:33.799
young age all this because of his
father' s being a fisherman. She

195
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:41.400
and her brother have a story together
in the ocean on the beaches, so

196
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.160
you have to take this into account
to know that the next story does not

197
00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:51.640
have its management. It' s
two kids who didn' t fear the

198
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:59.119
ocean at all. They are two
children who were extremely normal for them to

199
00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:06.960
swim to see even marine species like
sharks, to know crocodiles and not to

200
00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:08.759
hesitate, as they know how to
behave so as not to attract their attention.

201
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:15.720
So this is even more surprising to
know that what they saw that morning

202
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:22.359
with the sunlight, was not a
species that they recognized and it was because

203
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:27.319
of this same experience that they,
feeling so comfortable in the ocean at sea,

204
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:32.480
began to grasp a fear, an
absolute fear, since they realized that

205
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:45.720
the water, being very deep and
spreading in great dimensions. She can hide

206
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:52.519
beings that escape our understanding or at
least so she expresses it. His story

207
00:22:52.799 --> 00:23:00.599
is as follows. My name is
Istian Aragon. I want to tell you

208
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:06.400
my alex experience This happened to me
when I was a child and it also

209
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:10.720
happened to my brother. It happened
to us on a family trip or if

210
00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:15.079
you could say a family trip.
You see, my father is a fisherman

211
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:19.480
and throughout his life he was.
We take Nayarit and here the most fish

212
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:27.400
is shrimp and wet. My father, obviously, these two species were his

213
00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:33.079
main source of income, so in
my house he almost always ate either fish

214
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:40.720
or these species. But it also
goes without saying that I loved it and

215
00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:45.039
as a fisherman' s daughter I
also developed, along with my brother,

216
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:52.799
this love for the ocean from a
very young age so much so that my

217
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:56.359
father at age. I think four
years old started taking us with him on

218
00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:00.400
the boat, he started teaching us
Nadar, and practically at seven or eight

219
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:07.000
years old, which is when this
experience happened to us. We knew the

220
00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:15.839
whole coast, swimming in it,
moving around, locating, but we did

221
00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:22.599
not tell that, despite having all
that experience, we would see something that

222
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:27.119
would leave us with our hairs pointed
and with a certain fear, going back

223
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:33.400
into the ocean. As I explained
before, my father took us on certain

224
00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:41.000
trips, took us fishing and it
was precisely on one of these trips in

225
00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:48.160
the morning that he, like so
many other times had done. He decided

226
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:53.440
to just jump out of the boat
and swim, but of course he did

227
00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:56.480
tell us he was going to bring
us something very special. Obviously, me

228
00:24:56.519 --> 00:25:04.119
and my brother sat on top of
the boat waiting and very happy, perhaps

229
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:08.880
from what would bring us, but
the minutes passed and even though it hadn

230
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:15.359
' t been so long, we
began to see a silhouette there at the

231
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:22.359
distance that was moving down the water. It was a human silhouette. We

232
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:29.119
could see the feet, the torso, the arms. He even swam like

233
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:33.200
a human, so obviously and being
the only people nearby we immediately thought he

234
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:44.519
was our father. We saw that
silhouette swimming at one end and then the

235
00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:49.000
other, as if it were in
circles. Which we found strange. My

236
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:55.119
brother and I assumed now, since
we are big that maybe we saw her

237
00:25:55.200 --> 00:26:00.880
swim for about two or three minutes, seeing that this silhouette was just spinning.

238
00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:07.720
Sometimes he got lost and again we
saw her, we thought maybe our

239
00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:15.680
father was looking for something, but
he couldn' t find it, so

240
00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:19.039
I yelled at him, I told
him, Dad what you' re looking

241
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:25.400
for. We can help you.
And this was the worst thing I could

242
00:26:25.480 --> 00:26:32.000
have done. That silhouette stopped dry, turned and turned towards the boat.

243
00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:41.799
He stood there motionless, just floating
down the water that for this moment,

244
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:48.720
both me and my brother were extremely
rare that someone could hold their breath so

245
00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:56.200
much under the water. At that
moment the silhouette began to swim towards us,

246
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:03.400
but every time it approached it was
moving slightly more and more towards the

247
00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:08.079
surface. And it was thanks to
this that we were able to see her

248
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:12.839
better. Every time he got close. It was as if he was preparing

249
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.480
for you once you came with us, to climb the boat without any problem.

250
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:25.480
And it was so that little by
little he discovered. We saw the

251
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:30.119
forearms of that thing. They were
grey arms, they didn' t look

252
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:37.119
like those of human skin. Besides, they had beaks coming out of the

253
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:45.720
forearm, brown beaks. His head
had no hair. It was just a

254
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:52.359
gray ball, maybe with some dark
strands coming out, but ultimately, it

255
00:27:52.359 --> 00:28:00.200
wasn' t hair. Realizing this
quickly we ran into the fuel and lit

256
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:06.680
the boat and believe me that I
have to tell you that fear does great

257
00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:12.400
things, because we were kids and
frankly, speaking, that was the first

258
00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:19.599
time we ever managed to start the
boat engine in our whole life and yet,

259
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:26.759
trying to intentionally start it. Earlier
days we could never turn it on.

260
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:33.200
It was as if our strength wasn' t enough, but on that

261
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:36.319
occasion I don' t know how
we did it, but we lit the

262
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:41.839
boat. In short, fear makes
you have extra energy and strength to run

263
00:28:42.839 --> 00:28:49.319
out of there, the moment we
start the boat. A voice from the

264
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:56.359
other end, a voice that I
recognized perfectly, made me turn around was

265
00:28:57.119 --> 00:29:00.960
my father who was telling us hey
where he' s going, why they

266
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:06.640
light the boat. I in tears, screaming desperate, I said come please,

267
00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:11.359
come, Dad Come my brother who
still watched that strange being says that

268
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:19.599
this one plunged into the water.
As soon as he felt and heard the

269
00:29:19.599 --> 00:29:23.599
engine of that boat. My brother
mesmerized and told him my father, also

270
00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:30.400
screaming Come please, Dad Come quickly, get in the boat, Get in

271
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:34.119
the boat. My brother' s
concern at the time was not that that

272
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:41.599
thing would climb the boat with us, but that he thought he was going

273
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:45.480
to grab our father, as he
was in the water. My father,

274
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:49.839
as he could and very quickly,
swam to get with us. Once there,

275
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:53.720
we begged him. Dad, please, let' s go, Dad,

276
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:56.960
we gotta get back to shore,
let' s go. Please,

277
00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:02.440
we weren' t that far away, but I think it' s enough

278
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:06.680
that if they got us down they
wouldn' t see us again. Once

279
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:10.839
returning to the coast, we explained
to our father and what we had seen

280
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.880
and at that time, perhaps because
we were children and even though it became

281
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:19.160
extremely strange to him, he talked
to my mother and told her that probably

282
00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:29.079
we had confused a species that maybe
we didn' t know with a monster

283
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:34.400
practically before our eyes, maybe some
strange fish my father trying to get some

284
00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:41.279
logical answer. Sure, we didn' t believe this. We' re

285
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:44.519
still going with my father, but
that' s it. If he got

286
00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:49.119
off, we' d get off, too, if he got on us

287
00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:57.680
too. We never took it off, always stuck to it, since that

288
00:30:57.720 --> 00:31:03.279
experience, all our childhood and adolescence. My father, now that he is

289
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:08.680
sixty, tells me that he believes
in the words that we said. Perhaps

290
00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:14.640
he was afraid and did not want
to recognize that, but over the years

291
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:19.920
and with the experience of him and
some other fishermen much is said about strange

292
00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:29.119
silhouettes, whether human or other,
swimming in the water. The best thing

293
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:33.599
you can do at the time,
if you see one, is ignore it,

294
00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:37.880
not pay attention. You don'
t have to let that thing realize

295
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:44.599
that you can see it, because
if it shows signs that you' ve

296
00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:48.880
seen it, as I did on
that occasion, confusing it with my father,

297
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:55.119
maybe it can be the worst mistake
you can make inside the ocean.

298
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:04.400
But after hearing so many anecdotes from
fishermen, I think that I, as

299
00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:15.839
many believe that they do well to
fear the ocean, not only huge creatures

300
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:22.640
hide beneath it, but also legends, legends that remain alive despite the years,

301
00:32:22.039 --> 00:32:29.160
such as the following story, where
this sailor, who went along with

302
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:35.599
all his crew, faced a storm
in which a ship appeared, but not

303
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:46.839
any other ship. They looked like
an old ship, they looked like a

304
00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:58.880
boat that got trapped from another era, a ship that just wasn' t

305
00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:04.200
from this world. My name is
Isne Williams. My experience begins as follows,

306
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:12.799
before joining the naval, where I
currently work. I was a sailor.

307
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:19.039
Most of my life I' ve
dedicated it to the ocean, whether

308
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:23.599
it' s a sailor fisherman or
a seaman, but in those years,

309
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:32.519
when I was just a young adult
I was a few twenty years old,

310
00:33:32.519 --> 00:33:35.200
I had recently got a job in
a shipping company. Obviously, at sea

311
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:42.519
every few months we had to go
to the Panama Canal. We were going

312
00:33:42.599 --> 00:33:47.640
from the Gulf of Mexico to Panama. It was a long road and we

313
00:33:47.759 --> 00:33:55.839
passed through many ports and very interesting
places, various legends, various stories that

314
00:33:55.880 --> 00:34:00.359
were told in each port. But, of course, what all moms relevance

315
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:06.680
is what one can see with one' s own eyes and on that occasion

316
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:14.800
I witnessed something that many will surely
believe impossible, or believe as a legend,

317
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:21.239
a legend that sailors use to scare
people away. But this is not

318
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:24.559
so. I want you to know
it' s true. It happens that

319
00:34:24.599 --> 00:34:30.280
in one of these trips, when
we went to the Panama Canal to transport

320
00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:37.039
merchandise, since we already had our
offices and we had to transport some things

321
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:42.840
that came from China to the coast
of the United States on the other side,

322
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:46.880
and the Panama Canal was more than
perfect for this happens that on the

323
00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:51.880
way of that trip that has to
be said, it was not the first

324
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:55.239
time that it did, something happened
that was not very common. Suddenly,

325
00:34:55.679 --> 00:35:00.280
the sky became dark and we had
to deal with a storm, a storm

326
00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:09.159
that was abruptly formed. This is
more common in the open sea, but

327
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:15.320
we were very close to the coast, although we could not see land,

328
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:21.440
we were quite close to a few
minutes or even an hour, but what

329
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:25.719
I saw in that storm was something
I had never seen until that moment.

330
00:35:28.079 --> 00:35:32.960
They were not too big tornadoes,
but if enough to intimidate many of us,

331
00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:40.400
tornadoes that were forged from the clouds
up there to the ocean and just

332
00:35:40.519 --> 00:35:49.719
below them a swirl that was dragging
everything. The captain tried to evade this

333
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:59.320
clear, but the wind, the
rain the sea was very volatile. Chains,

334
00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:05.400
even some thirty- five kilos,
flew out of the deck to fall

335
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:10.440
into the ocean. The winds were
very strong, so the captain immediately ordered

336
00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:17.599
that no one be on deck to
secure everything, but that we get in

337
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:24.719
immediately. Where I was was was
a freighter, so it was heavy and

338
00:36:24.800 --> 00:36:30.199
with a very good engine. We
were empty, because when we arrived in

339
00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:34.800
Panama we were going to fill up. But just when everything was secured,

340
00:36:36.119 --> 00:36:40.960
when I was already getting into it, I noticed that one of my colleagues,

341
00:36:43.159 --> 00:36:46.760
a man of some fifty years old, who called him Chepe. I

342
00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:52.639
honestly don' t remember his name, and I never remember naming him by

343
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:54.840
his name. True, I only
knew they called him Chepe, so I

344
00:36:55.559 --> 00:37:02.480
also started calling him. So,
when I see you standing there looking at

345
00:37:02.679 --> 00:37:09.920
something on the horizon I tell you
chepe chepe Get in, what are you

346
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:15.039
doing a chain of those is going
to fly out and it' s going

347
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:20.280
to hit you in the head put
chepe turn and tell me neitan look what

348
00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:22.800
' s in front of us.
You don' t see it. I

349
00:37:22.800 --> 00:37:27.199
must admit it caught my attention,
so it was immediately, as the wind

350
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:31.920
and rain, as I said,
were very volatile and I find something even

351
00:37:32.039 --> 00:37:43.039
more strange and more surprising than those
tornadoes. There was a boat in front

352
00:37:43.880 --> 00:37:49.199
of us heading our way. It
wasn' t very close, but it

353
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:53.039
was at an approximate distance. Just
by the distance and by seeing the dimensions

354
00:37:53.039 --> 00:38:00.480
of this was even bigger than ours
or with a similar size, you can

355
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:05.480
say that this was not the big
deal. Maybe it was another freighter.

356
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:12.320
And here begins the strange thing,
since the appearance of that ship was not

357
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:21.000
normal. It wasn' t a
ship of this era, so to speak,

358
00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:24.800
it was a ship that seemed trapped
in time. It was an ancient

359
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:31.440
ship, about the time of the
1800s, and it was floating like nothing

360
00:38:31.480 --> 00:38:36.280
in the sea. Obviously, seeing
this, not only did I look at

361
00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:42.159
him, but also all my companions, including my captain, and it was

362
00:38:42.199 --> 00:38:47.920
this same one who told us to
get in, everyone leave the deck immediately.

363
00:38:50.159 --> 00:38:53.039
We listened and went to the captain' s cabin, as the area

364
00:38:54.159 --> 00:39:01.960
where we were was very cold.
Inexplicably, it had become almost like in

365
00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:08.400
a refrigerator and that we were in
warm times. We attributed it to the

366
00:39:08.519 --> 00:39:15.440
bad weather and once in the cabin, I saw how the captain told the

367
00:39:15.519 --> 00:39:21.280
Petty Officer and the Master to change
course, to turn a little in the

368
00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:30.440
direction of the tornadoes. I,
by this time I was dying of fear

369
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:37.880
only to see those immense tornadoes pass
one side of the ship. Obviously,

370
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:43.519
the captain knew what he was doing. I knew the boat was heavy and

371
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:51.119
fast enough and strong enough not to
be absorbed by the whirlwind. But in

372
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:57.920
the midst of that catastrophe, seeing
the whirlwinds and the whirls, I realized

373
00:39:57.960 --> 00:40:02.559
what the captain wanted to be.
He was just going to the tornadoes for

374
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:09.039
doing it, especially because the route
wasn' t that way. He'

375
00:40:09.159 --> 00:40:16.599
s opting to be a deviation.
But why good I could quickly deduce that

376
00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:25.239
I was avoiding approaching that ship that
we had seen that ship did not move,

377
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:35.639
I was only standing floating and my
captain preferred to go to the tornadoes

378
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:40.840
than to pass near that ship.
After minutes, perhaps some time, of

379
00:40:40.840 --> 00:40:50.880
sailing in turbulent waters. We finally
got out of that storm. Once we

380
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:55.480
arrived in Panama, we began to
talk about what we had seen and inevitably,

381
00:40:58.320 --> 00:41:04.079
we touched on the topic of the
boat and one of my companions,

382
00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:08.199
a young man, like me,
who had been working with them for seven

383
00:41:08.199 --> 00:41:12.840
years, asked me if it was
the first time I saw something like this.

384
00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:15.960
I replied that yes, and that
I had been a fisherman and a

385
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:22.800
sailor before and never in my life
had it been for me to witness something

386
00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:29.800
similar to that. He explained to
me that only that was one of so

387
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:34.519
many experiences and so many legends that
are told in the sea, in the

388
00:41:34.519 --> 00:41:37.320
ocean. He explained to me that
in all the years he had been working

389
00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:45.679
there he had heard several things and
seen worse. One of them was the

390
00:41:45.719 --> 00:41:53.639
singing of the sirens, the singing
of women who hypnotized the men also when

391
00:41:54.320 --> 00:42:00.440
they were passing through a place that
was cloudy, that had torn or in

392
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:07.719
the night, you could see people
walking on the water. They could not

393
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:13.679
be seen with clothes or with a
perfect silhouette, but they could see in

394
00:42:13.760 --> 00:42:21.119
the distance among all that blackness,
by the clouds at night that was a

395
00:42:21.159 --> 00:42:28.920
person with that distorted silhouette. We
could just say they just called them ghosts.

396
00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:37.599
But the worst thing was to find
something big, like on that occasion

397
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:44.320
with a boat. I must say, this ship didn' t look normal.

398
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:50.280
It was like he was surrounded by
some kind of fog that distorted him

399
00:42:50.360 --> 00:42:55.199
completely. We couldn' t see
it as we' d seen an ordinary

400
00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:04.320
ship around it was like a fog
splice. He explained to me that this

401
00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:07.599
was a ghost ship and that these
were one of the worst, since,

402
00:43:09.199 --> 00:43:16.840
as he approached if the captain would
not have preferred to go around him,

403
00:43:17.119 --> 00:43:24.400
the sure thing was that we would
have sunk even before we came to see

404
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:31.559
him closely. That was an experience
that until today I can not forget and

405
00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:38.679
of course that even being now mercantile
marine, I carry it and clearly ce

406
00:43:38.719 --> 00:43:45.679
what I have to do, if
that again I find with a similar ship

407
00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:53.679
in open sea. That was my
story. I hope you' ve liked

408
00:43:53.760 --> 00:44:02.880
greetings from the whole Community from Florida. This fisherman, as he said in

409
00:44:02.880 --> 00:44:08.760
the story, is already an old
sea wolf and now wants to share with

410
00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:17.239
us an experience that happened to his
uncle. There are many myths at sea.

411
00:44:17.400 --> 00:44:22.719
Rather, coming from sailors, it
is said that we do not have

412
00:44:22.760 --> 00:44:28.360
to make bad omens before leaving.
There are always things a sailor has to

413
00:44:28.400 --> 00:44:31.800
avoid doing both at sea and in
the harbor, if he wants to return

414
00:44:31.880 --> 00:44:44.199
alive and healthy to land and with
his family. In this story we will

415
00:44:44.239 --> 00:44:51.280
witness a few omens and like these
if you miss them. The ocean may

416
00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:57.679
get mad at you. Perhaps this
is why it is said that strange forces,

417
00:44:57.840 --> 00:45:06.679
gods, energies and in the next
story rule in the ocean. We

418
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:15.000
' ll know a little more about
this. The next story in question happened

419
00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:22.320
to my uncle. This time we
leave a few more years ago. When

420
00:45:22.480 --> 00:45:27.159
he was a fisherman. It was
a boat totally different from the one I

421
00:45:27.199 --> 00:45:34.639
got on with him. By then
he already had some experience in the work

422
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:40.719
of fisherman. One of his friends, his closest friends, was also a

423
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:52.119
fisherman named Facundo. He was a
young man, very fearless, very stubborn

424
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:57.920
and very challenging. One morning,
when they were working in a no-

425
00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:06.960
fishing area very close to the open
sea. The following happened and before I

426
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:10.480
explained this to you, I want
to tell you that fishermen, as well

427
00:46:10.480 --> 00:46:19.639
as sailors, have their superstitions have
their bad omens. As many say,

428
00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:30.000
these bad omens are not like that
simply because they have some rules or have

429
00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:35.559
some supernatural superstitions that fishermen would like
to have. No. This became more

430
00:46:35.639 --> 00:46:40.719
than clear to my uncle that they
had a reason why and why they believed

431
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:50.440
in this so much, one of
these bad omens is that never ever if

432
00:46:51.840 --> 00:46:54.000
you are in bad open, whether
it is a fisherman or a sailor,

433
00:46:55.639 --> 00:47:02.000
you should not hurt the seagulls,
because you have the belief that seagulls carry

434
00:47:02.039 --> 00:47:10.239
the souls of sailors who have lost
their lives in the Ocean. And this

435
00:47:10.280 --> 00:47:15.280
is more than anything to give a
little respect. This, considering that my

436
00:47:15.400 --> 00:47:23.480
uncle was a fisherman, was somewhat
tedious, since the captain hurt these animals

437
00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:30.639
when they took out the fish,
When the fish was on the board,

438
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:38.199
some seagulls inevitably came, what we
had to do was scare them away without

439
00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:46.679
harming them. Although Facundo had a
very volatile temperament and on one of these

440
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:55.199
occasions he drew a resolve he always
had. He pointed a seagull at her

441
00:47:55.280 --> 00:48:02.760
and threw a stone at her,
not just one. He repeated this three

442
00:48:02.800 --> 00:48:10.239
times, taking the lives of three
seagulls on board. The captain realized this

443
00:48:10.239 --> 00:48:15.440
and obviously scolded him and sent him
to do other work, work that no

444
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:22.360
one wanted to do. This more
than anything as a form of punishment.

445
00:48:23.559 --> 00:48:30.519
And here' s what' s
interesting because when they went back, they

446
00:48:30.599 --> 00:48:36.840
bumped into something they bumped into in
the face with something really hard. Underneath

447
00:48:36.920 --> 00:48:44.960
it was as if the boat had
anchored, it had stumbled upon land with

448
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:51.840
a receptacle shook the entire boat.
My uncle had even fallen. They all

449
00:48:51.920 --> 00:48:57.119
got up after the big blow they
had suffered. They were looking overboard and

450
00:48:58.280 --> 00:49:04.039
in that my uncle heard a scream
coming from the other side of the deck.

451
00:49:06.599 --> 00:49:14.320
It is the cry that none of
the fishermen or sailors ever want to

452
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:16.719
hear and are shouting. Man in
the water? Man in the water?

453
00:49:17.440 --> 00:49:24.679
Man in the water? They all
went immediately and found precisely that Facundo was

454
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:31.320
at sea. And even though Facundo, like all fishermen, knew how to

455
00:49:31.320 --> 00:49:39.480
swim very well in some strange way, he couldn' t stay afloat.

456
00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:49.800
He sank and then again he went
out asking for help. There is another

457
00:49:49.840 --> 00:49:54.000
evil omen, which I will tell
you later, and that is that,

458
00:49:54.159 --> 00:50:02.440
at first no one samboured to collect
it. Take it by floaters from these

459
00:50:02.480 --> 00:50:09.039
Lifeguards and throw them with a hard
rope. He just had to get hold

460
00:50:09.159 --> 00:50:15.760
of them and we were all gonna
pull the rope and we were gonna bring

461
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:21.119
him back to the boat. But
something strange happens here, as if that

462
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:28.360
blow wasn' t enough every Lifesaver
who threw him in the face. The

463
00:50:28.519 --> 00:50:34.519
rope broke and the eye did not
break from the friction it made with the

464
00:50:34.519 --> 00:50:42.280
boat. In addition, they are
large ropes, they are thick ropes,

465
00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:50.199
they are boat sailor ropes rarely break
and even have years of duration. My

466
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:57.639
uncle remembers that three lifesavers were thrown
at him and the three ropes that went

467
00:50:57.679 --> 00:51:05.800
with these lifesavers, the three ropes
were broken. And not only the strange

468
00:51:05.840 --> 00:51:09.880
fact that these ropes broke was the
trigger of even more terror on top of

469
00:51:10.000 --> 00:51:15.920
the ship, but when they checked
it, they realized that these ropes had

470
00:51:16.000 --> 00:51:24.960
burst, but more than anything,
they seemed cut as if they had been

471
00:51:25.000 --> 00:51:31.719
cut with a knife. That was
practically impossible. They, before throwing it,

472
00:51:32.239 --> 00:51:37.599
looked at it, stretched it out. The rope every time they threw

473
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:45.840
it was fine overnight. She remembers
it just bursting, it was cut off.

474
00:51:47.880 --> 00:51:53.360
The ship' s master had an
idea what all of us were looking

475
00:51:53.519 --> 00:52:00.079
at. How to get Facundo Facundo
out, fortunately, thanks to the floaters.

476
00:52:00.840 --> 00:52:07.199
He could stay afloat, he could
stay on the surface strangely, being

477
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:13.039
a good swimmer, he could not
reach the ship. He was trying to

478
00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:17.639
swim, but he wasn' t
moving around. It was like something was

479
00:52:17.639 --> 00:52:27.199
holding him back. It was like
something was stopping him. The master had

480
00:52:27.320 --> 00:52:35.199
taken out a heavy large wooden beam
that helped more than anything to the support

481
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:40.320
of the crane with which we pulled
out The fish between six, between my

482
00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:47.679
uncle and six other fishermen, held
it tightly, They passed it to Facundo,

483
00:52:47.880 --> 00:52:53.239
He took it only In this way
they could return it to the boat.

484
00:52:54.199 --> 00:53:00.440
Once Facundo was out of danger,
the captain launched the ship. He

485
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:07.239
thought about turning back, turning back. But curiously enough, the ship wasn

486
00:53:07.280 --> 00:53:13.840
' t stuck. The ship had
not encountered anything or at least was no

487
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:17.880
longer stuck, as he thought simply
with whatever, with what they had encountered,

488
00:53:19.079 --> 00:53:23.639
was no longer there or perhaps it
was something that had purposely pushed them.

489
00:53:28.679 --> 00:53:32.039
That' s where the captain makes
the decision to return to port.

490
00:53:34.239 --> 00:53:38.760
I didn' t want to stay
at sea that day. He begins to

491
00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:44.519
connect everything that had happened and tells
them that they will return, because today

492
00:53:44.679 --> 00:53:50.599
it is more than clear that they
made the ocean angry and that, for

493
00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:55.000
their bad luck, if they were
slow to return, it is possible that

494
00:53:55.199 --> 00:54:00.159
the sea will take all their lives. And the other bad omen I want

495
00:54:00.239 --> 00:54:05.440
to tell you is that when a
man falls into the water, but it

496
00:54:05.559 --> 00:54:09.440
falls because the ocean wants it to
fall, not because of an accident.

497
00:54:10.920 --> 00:54:19.360
When the ocean claims the soul of
that subject it must not be saved.

498
00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:24.920
That occasion was more than clear that
all of this, that was what the

499
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:35.480
sea was about had intentionally hit the
ship and had caused facundo to fall and

500
00:54:35.519 --> 00:54:40.599
at that time we had challenged him
to save him. The captain was on

501
00:54:40.679 --> 00:54:49.840
the way driving very quickly. The
captain told his fishermen to pray, to

502
00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:54.039
their gods, to pray to any
entity they believed in, and to ask

503
00:54:54.039 --> 00:55:04.400
the sea not to turn them and
much worse, to disorient them. Because,

504
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:08.960
even though the captain had years of
being a fisherman and of knowing those

505
00:55:09.000 --> 00:55:15.360
waters very well, even the most
expert and this is proven by history,

506
00:55:16.400 --> 00:55:24.280
even the most expert captain can be
lost. The sea is very mystical and

507
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:31.559
can cause tragedies. Fortunately, they
arrived at port, but facundo was forbidden

508
00:55:31.679 --> 00:55:37.880
to go up. The next day
and for a full week, the captain

509
00:55:39.039 --> 00:55:45.519
didn' t want to take any
chances on what might happen on the high

510
00:55:45.519 --> 00:55:52.159
seas. I didn' t want
the ocean to get angry again. There

511
00:55:52.199 --> 00:56:00.639
are commercial sailors. These commercial sailors
are those that we commonly see in the

512
00:56:00.760 --> 00:56:07.400
great ships, those that take out
tourists, those that go on cruises and

513
00:56:07.440 --> 00:56:14.920
also to quillos are hired in yachts. Interestingly, these sailors, even though

514
00:56:14.960 --> 00:56:21.599
they are accompanied, even though they
carry many people hundreds and in some cases,

515
00:56:21.760 --> 00:56:27.760
thousands on board a ship, including
personal cleaning waiters, even on large

516
00:56:27.760 --> 00:56:36.079
boats, you can experience paranormal experiences
in the middle of the ocean. This

517
00:56:36.119 --> 00:56:40.039
is very peculiar, as much of
the stories are said to be alone to

518
00:56:40.079 --> 00:56:46.360
see something like this, to capture
entities, even in the water, as

519
00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:52.599
you need to be calm. This
story again confirms to us that this is

520
00:56:52.599 --> 00:56:58.400
not true, that seeing something strange
can happen at any time, day or

521
00:56:58.480 --> 00:57:04.280
night. This sailor shares two stories
with us. He was a commercial sailor

522
00:57:04.480 --> 00:57:08.760
all his life and, despite being
accompanied, he always lived things that would

523
00:57:08.800 --> 00:57:20.840
leave many people disturbed. His experiences
are the following hello alex. My name

524
00:57:21.000 --> 00:57:27.000
is Eugenio Montiel. The next experience
I want to tell you belongs to my

525
00:57:27.000 --> 00:57:30.639
uncle. My uncle, as well
as many people. Since he was little,

526
00:57:30.559 --> 00:57:37.239
he liked the ocean sailing swimming,
so his family did not do anything

527
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:43.280
strange that for his profession he wanted
something related to the sea and as he

528
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:50.400
came from a good family, he
was very easy to learn in specialized schools

529
00:57:50.440 --> 00:57:55.039
for one day in the future to
be captain of a boat. This was

530
00:57:55.119 --> 00:58:00.519
fulfilled at the age of thirty-
five. He was requested by agencies,

531
00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:07.880
by families of a lot of money
to drive their yachts, to drive cruises.

532
00:58:07.639 --> 00:58:14.360
And in these two ships that I
just mentioned to you, it was

533
00:58:14.400 --> 00:58:20.559
precisely in those that you experienced beyond
disturbing. I want to tell you the

534
00:58:20.559 --> 00:58:22.840
first one. This happened to him
when they were on a cruise. He

535
00:58:22.880 --> 00:58:29.800
was not a captain, but if
he had a very high rank position in

536
00:58:29.840 --> 00:58:34.800
his errands, he also had to
go down with the sailors who were monitoring

537
00:58:34.880 --> 00:58:39.320
all the machines by means of security
cameras. These cruises, some are large,

538
00:58:39.519 --> 00:58:45.079
others are medium, others are small. Specifically, I don' t

539
00:58:45.159 --> 00:58:47.679
remember well if this happened to you
on a medium or small cruise. But

540
00:58:47.760 --> 00:58:53.400
as small as a cruise ship is, there are many people in it,

541
00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:59.360
and one, as a sailor and
also as a safety officer, has to

542
00:58:59.360 --> 00:59:00.679
be aware that everything is going to
work. All right. Remember that he

543
00:59:00.719 --> 00:59:07.280
was chatting with other sailors who were
in the cameras when suddenly one of them

544
00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:12.360
calls him and tells him to go, as he needs to see something that

545
00:59:12.440 --> 00:59:17.000
' s catching the camera. This
sailor says he feels very nervous, something

546
00:59:17.000 --> 00:59:22.480
scared as if he had seen something
that would have left him very disturbed.

547
00:59:23.079 --> 00:59:30.559
My uncle goes and this sailor precisely
tells him that he saw something strange sleeping

548
00:59:30.599 --> 00:59:37.039
in the camera facing the propela of
the ship. These propelas that the ships

549
00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:42.719
have, depending on the size,
can vary, because it is in itself

550
00:59:42.840 --> 00:59:47.320
what gives the boat strength to go
sailing. They are very large, absorb

551
00:59:47.400 --> 00:59:52.320
water and drive it. There'
s a camera fixing this one more than

552
00:59:52.400 --> 00:59:58.159
anything in case there' s a
problem, in case the major propellant or

553
00:59:58.159 --> 01:00:02.880
the smaller ones, which are smaller, get stuck if they manage to catch

554
01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:07.760
something that' s too hard to
crush. They have to stop the machines,

555
01:00:08.519 --> 01:00:14.679
see through the cameras and think about
how to fix this or simply stop

556
01:00:14.719 --> 01:00:19.960
acting and moving with the others until
they can reach the mainland, where they

557
01:00:20.000 --> 01:00:23.920
will be given their maintenance and a
corresponding solution. My uncle comes to the

558
01:00:24.000 --> 01:00:28.800
House and he looks at it and
sees that it is in the direction of

559
01:00:28.840 --> 01:00:32.199
the greater propela, the greatest of
all. He asks her well, what

560
01:00:32.280 --> 01:00:37.400
do you want the sailor to see
gets nervous. He tells you look,

561
01:00:37.719 --> 01:00:38.920
I don' t know how to
explain it to you. Please stay here

562
01:00:39.280 --> 01:00:44.599
and see it with your own eyes, because if I tell you, you

563
01:00:44.599 --> 01:00:49.559
probably won' t believe me.
But please trust me and stay here.

564
01:00:51.599 --> 01:00:53.840
I hope it happens again. My
uncle says he stared at the House and

565
01:00:53.960 --> 01:01:00.480
talked to the sailor and others about
twenty ons minutes, almost half an hour,

566
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:07.199
but he didn' t see anything. It should also be said that

567
01:01:07.239 --> 01:01:12.760
at that time they were going through
a storm. All guests were mostly in

568
01:01:12.800 --> 01:01:20.639
the lounges, casino or in their
rooms. No one was on board,

569
01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:24.599
because obviously, who wants to be
in the middle of the storm raining and

570
01:01:24.639 --> 01:01:30.880
with strong winds. And I'
m telling you this because my uncle also

571
01:01:30.880 --> 01:01:34.679
mentions it. Passe turns out that
after a while, he manages to see

572
01:01:35.280 --> 01:01:38.840
something there in the House, he
manages to see that something is moving on

573
01:01:38.920 --> 01:01:45.199
the edge of this not remotely,
but rather playing. I also have to

574
01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:50.559
stress that these cameras are a night
vision, because underneath the water, you

575
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:54.679
can' t see anything. Everything
is completely dark. And even more,

576
01:01:54.840 --> 01:01:59.519
at that time it was night,
my uncle stays with his mouth open and

577
01:02:00.159 --> 01:02:04.880
this talks about it in a very
serious way that what he saw was the

578
01:02:05.039 --> 01:02:09.159
face of a girl who looked just
for one or two seconds maximum in front

579
01:02:09.760 --> 01:02:15.039
of the House, as if this
girl were flesh and blood. Her hair

580
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:22.679
floated in the water, her eyes
were completely dark and very large. This

581
01:02:22.800 --> 01:02:29.280
girl sketched a smile at them in
front of the House as if she knew

582
01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:32.840
she was being watched. This was
for a brief moment, as I tell

583
01:02:32.840 --> 01:02:37.719
you, it was one or two
seconds maximum. Then, this girl just

584
01:02:37.800 --> 01:02:40.760
let go as if she had been
held to the ship and got lost.

585
01:02:42.360 --> 01:02:45.880
He just got lost. Let'
s explain a few things here, and

586
01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:51.840
the boat was on the move,
as I tell you, it was a

587
01:02:51.840 --> 01:02:55.239
cruise ship. They are heavy and
the propela just to which the Chamber was

588
01:02:55.320 --> 01:03:00.519
aiming was the largest, it was
the one that absorbed the most water.

589
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:07.000
It was practically impossible for a living
being to be in that range, as

590
01:03:07.039 --> 01:03:10.719
it would have been absorbed and destroyed
by the propela. This child, however,

591
01:03:12.119 --> 01:03:15.679
was there as if nothing. All
the sailors who were there were left

592
01:03:15.679 --> 01:03:22.519
without saying a word, until my
uncle told them to stay calm. Keep

593
01:03:22.599 --> 01:03:27.800
checking the cameras and if you see
anything like it, just ignore it.

594
01:03:28.840 --> 01:03:32.360
One of the sailors told her how
it' s possible for a girl to

595
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:37.079
be underwater. But my uncle,
very sure, replied that that child is

596
01:03:37.199 --> 01:03:42.920
not alive. Storms, more specifically
in this ocean, in the open sea,

597
01:03:43.679 --> 01:03:47.239
bring more than water and strong winds. Sometimes you can see these things.

598
01:03:49.320 --> 01:03:52.800
Luckily, we saw it in the
Chamber, but believe me it'

599
01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:57.000
s even scarier when you see it
with your own eyes in the water.

600
01:03:57.280 --> 01:04:01.000
Just if you see something like this, don' t take it into account,

601
01:04:02.239 --> 01:04:08.960
because in this job you can see
a lot of this and if you

602
01:04:08.960 --> 01:04:11.679
don' t have enough nerves to
deal with it, this kind of thing

603
01:04:11.679 --> 01:04:15.199
will eat you alive. Our job
is simply to verify that the ship,

604
01:04:15.480 --> 01:04:20.760
the ship or whatever we are driving, has no malfunction and is handled as

605
01:04:20.840 --> 01:04:28.159
it should be. Beyond that,
ignore this story to make you honest.

606
01:04:28.760 --> 01:04:32.480
Alex and the entire crypt community told
us about it when he was forty-

607
01:04:32.920 --> 01:04:39.159
two and he claims it was true. Like this second, this second story

608
01:04:39.280 --> 01:04:45.000
happened to him even when he was
younger. He was still studying some courses,

609
01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:51.840
but he could already defend himself by
sailing in small boats, small boats

610
01:04:51.920 --> 01:04:59.119
such as yachts, fishing boats,
etc. Etc. On one occasion at

611
01:04:59.159 --> 01:05:04.519
the Capes, an agency that rents
yachts for people because they are of a

612
01:05:04.519 --> 01:05:09.760
lot of money, offered him work
for what would be all summer holidays.

613
01:05:10.360 --> 01:05:15.719
He issued, obviously from experience and
also because he wanted to perform on other

614
01:05:15.719 --> 01:05:19.679
ships. I' ve never handled
a yacht before, big and small.

615
01:05:20.440 --> 01:05:26.239
He gladly accepted the job. He
says they had a radio where they could

616
01:05:26.239 --> 01:05:30.280
move. And so, obviously,
families and some couples, because they go

617
01:05:31.119 --> 01:05:38.320
with music, distracting themselves, having
fun, either by day or by night.

618
01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:44.800
There are some families who rent the
yacht for three days even and these

619
01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:48.920
yachts tend to be large, they
come with bedrooms inside. They only make

620
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:54.039
stops on the coast to go,
walk, or go to dinner, but

621
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:57.920
what they want to live is the
experience of being at sea. So,

622
01:05:58.199 --> 01:06:04.400
a few kilometers rent them for almost
three full days. This was the situation

623
01:06:04.400 --> 01:06:10.599
of that family. My uncle went
and this one asked him to take a

624
01:06:10.599 --> 01:06:13.480
walk. I don' t know
how to explain myself. He explained it

625
01:06:13.519 --> 01:06:17.440
to me very well in maritime terms
we could say, but now, to

626
01:06:17.440 --> 01:06:19.800
make you honest, I don'
t remember very well. The point is,

627
01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:26.079
they stopped at what we could say
a pit. You' ll see

628
01:06:26.079 --> 01:06:30.039
at sea. All the sand.
There are some areas where it is very

629
01:06:30.679 --> 01:06:34.559
deep and then again the sand rises. There are areas that are like very

630
01:06:35.400 --> 01:06:42.760
small abysses, like large holes that
go that have meters kilometers of depth.

631
01:06:43.239 --> 01:06:47.079
In this type of abyss, on
the surface is calmer everything and usually the

632
01:06:47.199 --> 01:06:51.639
motor is a little forced to pass
above this, as there is a current

633
01:06:53.199 --> 01:07:00.199
that pulls you down. But obviously, the engine is enough and plenty to

634
01:07:00.199 --> 01:07:02.360
get out of there. But then, if he has to be forced a

635
01:07:02.440 --> 01:07:08.239
little, my uncle stopped there more
than anything, because the family told them.

636
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:15.119
They wanted to be as deep into
the sea as possible and that'

637
01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:18.079
s where the agency allowed it.
Night fell my uncle went to his cabin.

638
01:07:19.320 --> 01:07:23.920
He was already in perfect shape for
you. Everything had been checked out.

639
01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:30.119
The family was traveling with a dog, a German shepherd, a very

640
01:07:30.199 --> 01:07:35.239
well educated dog, very friendly,
especially during the first two days the dog

641
01:07:36.280 --> 01:07:42.840
behaved in a very good way.
But this last night, when they stopped

642
01:07:43.599 --> 01:07:49.119
in that abyss above, or we
could say near that pit of that abyss,

643
01:07:49.840 --> 01:07:56.000
the dog began to behave strangely.
My uncle says that the dog used

644
01:07:56.079 --> 01:08:02.039
to snarl, bark, squeal,
but not a person in particular, but

645
01:08:02.079 --> 01:08:06.800
towards the ocean, towards the sea, as if something found there made him

646
01:08:06.880 --> 01:08:17.119
uncomfortable. He behaved strangely, nervously, violently. So much so that some

647
01:08:17.159 --> 01:08:21.840
relatives decided to put him in,
but during the night this got worse.

648
01:08:23.600 --> 01:08:27.840
The dog couldn' t sleep.
He was very restless. I think animals

649
01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:35.119
can catch vibrating things more than we
do and at that time the dog was

650
01:08:35.159 --> 01:08:44.560
feeling it. I was feeling they
were in danger or something I was watching

651
01:08:44.600 --> 01:08:48.000
them that night. Marriage has a
fight, nothing from the other world.

652
01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:54.960
A simple argument like any couple and
in that my uncle, who was in

653
01:08:55.359 --> 01:09:00.199
his cabin, who has windows out, listens to the film does not pay

654
01:09:00.279 --> 01:09:03.319
attention to him, since he does
not want to get into matters that do

655
01:09:03.319 --> 01:09:08.960
not matter to him. And he
sees the wife walking to the front of

656
01:09:09.000 --> 01:09:13.880
the yacht and immediately my uncle notices
something falling overboard and whipping in the water.

657
01:09:15.720 --> 01:09:20.920
Immediately he stands up, opens the
door, runs and sees the wife

658
01:09:21.000 --> 01:09:28.760
nowhere. Suddenly he begins to hear
cries of help coming from below the water.

659
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:32.439
When you see one of the lights
on the yacht, you see that

660
01:09:32.520 --> 01:09:38.680
the wife is in the water trying
to get out afloat. He was drowning,

661
01:09:38.800 --> 01:09:42.720
but he was fighting. He immediately
gives the order to one of the

662
01:09:42.800 --> 01:09:47.079
sailors who comes with them, as
it was he and four other assistants.

663
01:09:48.119 --> 01:09:53.880
One of them jumps and sees immediately
for the wife, while the husband watches

664
01:09:54.079 --> 01:10:00.760
from above the lady is very upset
screaming over and over again that her daughter

665
01:10:00.840 --> 01:10:08.560
is in the ocean that her daughter
had fallen off the yacht. Obviously,

666
01:10:08.600 --> 01:10:12.960
we all get the lights, we
turn on every one of the lights that

667
01:10:13.000 --> 01:10:18.399
were on the yacht to use everything
around, but we didn' t see

668
01:10:18.399 --> 01:10:23.199
anyone. The husband, for obvious
reasons, is also entering the alert to

669
01:10:24.119 --> 01:10:27.600
see, but as it is possible
that the girl was at sea. It

670
01:10:27.640 --> 01:10:31.359
was not unlikely, since the mother
had fallen, but the girl started screaming

671
01:10:31.359 --> 01:10:35.479
by her name over and over again, over and over again until the girl

672
01:10:35.520 --> 01:10:42.359
left the yacht of her room more
than anything in the company of the dog,

673
01:10:42.760 --> 01:10:49.279
slitting her eyes. That good guy, I' m here because they

674
01:10:49.279 --> 01:10:53.920
' re yelling at me. She
was asleep. The mother climbs on the

675
01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:58.840
yacht and embraces her daughter with all
her strength. How could the girl find

676
01:10:58.960 --> 01:11:04.199
herself laughing? This mother says that
after having argued with the husband, she

677
01:11:04.199 --> 01:11:10.680
went to smoke a cigarette in front
of the yacht and it was at that

678
01:11:10.720 --> 01:11:16.640
time that she heard the cries of
help coming from the water. Your daughter

679
01:11:17.479 --> 01:11:23.640
was yelling at you over and over
again, Mom, help me? Mom,

680
01:11:24.159 --> 01:11:29.039
help me? Am I sinking?
I' m sinking. Please,

681
01:11:29.439 --> 01:11:33.600
when she looks down and sees her
daughter there in the water, without thinking

682
01:11:33.600 --> 01:11:42.920
twice and in a way we could
say something desperate, since although the mother

683
01:11:42.960 --> 01:11:46.520
knew how to swim, at that
time she went into crisis, she threw

684
01:11:46.560 --> 01:11:53.960
herself and couldn' t coordinate.
She was so desperate, so she herself

685
01:11:54.079 --> 01:12:00.000
was sinking, too. We all
looked over the ocean, but there was

686
01:12:00.000 --> 01:12:05.159
no one else, no one else, that wife would have confused with her

687
01:12:05.159 --> 01:12:11.520
daughter. It has to be said
and emphasized that the lady was not alcoholized,

688
01:12:12.399 --> 01:12:18.520
had not taken any substance, was
clean. It was a family trip.

689
01:12:18.760 --> 01:12:24.000
She smoked it a lot and that
from time to time, so it

690
01:12:24.039 --> 01:12:28.800
was in her five senses, when
she saw this. They don' t

691
01:12:28.880 --> 01:12:33.640
know what they saw that night,
but in short, it was something they

692
01:12:33.680 --> 01:12:39.800
wanted to fool us all. The
dog could sense it perhaps took the form

693
01:12:39.880 --> 01:12:50.880
of that girl to pull the woman
and plunge her into that abyss. Legends

694
01:12:51.000 --> 01:12:58.520
or horror stories are told in different
populations. Surely if you are in a

695
01:12:58.600 --> 01:13:03.079
city, in a village, even
if it is rural, they have a

696
01:13:03.199 --> 01:13:09.000
legend that only the inhabitants of there
know, either in desert or as in

697
01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:12.560
this case, on a beach that, although at the time they were passing,

698
01:13:13.159 --> 01:13:18.079
both who tells the story and his
family thought they were simply delusions of

699
01:13:18.199 --> 01:13:23.920
a person who was sadly losing his
mind. In time they realized that the

700
01:13:24.840 --> 01:13:30.000
person who claimed to live these experiences
was not completely crazy, they realized that

701
01:13:30.039 --> 01:13:35.479
those words he said that what stalked
the beach might not be entirely invented.

702
01:13:38.760 --> 01:13:48.199
His story is as follows: hello, Alex Mira. This next story was

703
01:13:48.279 --> 01:13:53.640
told in my village. I'
m from Veracruz and beyond a story,

704
01:13:54.159 --> 01:14:01.479
it' s a legend, but
that really happened there was a man who

705
01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:05.920
is no longer alive. They called
him Don Gerardo to make you honest.

706
01:14:06.039 --> 01:14:12.479
Many of us don' t even
remember his last name. His story is

707
01:14:12.520 --> 01:14:17.000
very sad, but he has left
a stamp and a certain fear for an

708
01:14:17.000 --> 01:14:24.359
inconcret path of Veracruz Mira. Don
Gerardo was a person who didn' t

709
01:14:24.439 --> 01:14:30.640
have a lot of possibilities, he
was always a pickler and when he started

710
01:14:30.760 --> 01:14:35.520
fishing, he only fished what was
right for him and he himself consumed it.

711
01:14:36.319 --> 01:14:41.840
He was a person who was always
on the street and eventually, seeing

712
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:45.880
that much of his food was taken
off the coast, he decided to go

713
01:14:46.039 --> 01:14:50.479
live on one of these beaches,
in a hidden place where the authorities would

714
01:14:50.520 --> 01:15:00.199
never tell him to move. He
had spent so many years prowling around that

715
01:15:00.319 --> 01:15:04.800
place that he knew more than clearly
some places where he was not going to

716
01:15:04.800 --> 01:15:10.840
be interrupted. It began to be
his house, which was only wooden and

717
01:15:10.920 --> 01:15:15.640
eventually he met a girl, a
girl also in a street situation. They

718
01:15:15.680 --> 01:15:21.159
became partners, went to live with
him, and eventually a son emerged from

719
01:15:21.239 --> 01:15:28.079
that relationship. But two years after
he had conceived that son, the girl

720
01:15:28.159 --> 01:15:32.199
left Don Gerardo and left with another
man. Although the abandonment of his partner

721
01:15:32.279 --> 01:15:38.439
hit Gerardo hard, at least he
had his son and raised him with much

722
01:15:38.560 --> 01:15:45.000
love, with much devotion. My
parents witnessed these years, as I was

723
01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:50.520
too young at the time as Don
Gerardo Sella, being basically a pepenador and

724
01:15:50.600 --> 01:15:58.560
fisherman. At the same time he
began to carry some dogs, dogs also

725
01:15:58.560 --> 01:16:01.439
belonging to the street and his son
took them to have friends, because his

726
01:16:02.560 --> 01:16:06.600
son did not go to school.
He was learning everything that Gerardo could teach

727
01:16:06.680 --> 01:16:12.800
him, even though it was a
life, we could say not so good.

728
01:16:13.319 --> 01:16:17.720
They lived in deplorable conditions. We
could say they were both happy,

729
01:16:18.880 --> 01:16:23.880
but happiness ended when his son,
at the age of ten, as he

730
01:16:24.760 --> 01:16:28.600
had taught him, his father,
went swimming on the beach, as he

731
01:16:28.640 --> 01:16:33.880
always did. It was one of
those days, he didn' t come

732
01:16:33.880 --> 01:16:39.319
out of the water. On that
tragic day, his son disappeared. Don

733
01:16:39.399 --> 01:16:45.600
Gerardo, distressed, got in and
lasted hours from the afternoon to hours of

734
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:54.119
the morning looking for his son on
that beach and in the following, Don

735
01:16:54.199 --> 01:17:00.000
Gerardo was known, so some neighbors
lent themselves to help him and even later

736
01:17:00.159 --> 01:17:03.840
days, asking for the child perhaps
had escaped from the house, but they

737
01:17:04.399 --> 01:17:09.960
never found him. They all assumed
that perhaps the child out of recklessness,

738
01:17:10.920 --> 01:17:16.319
perhaps believing that his ten- year- old strength was enough to fight the

739
01:17:16.359 --> 01:17:21.000
sea currents further into the open sea. He wanted to swim beyond what he

740
01:17:21.039 --> 01:17:28.600
owed and the current ended up dragging
him. After this, it is said

741
01:17:28.640 --> 01:17:35.199
that Don Gerardo fell into madness because
he began to see things that did not

742
01:17:35.680 --> 01:17:41.039
exist or at least that was what
the neighbors said. Don Gerardo began to

743
01:17:41.079 --> 01:17:46.560
say that a corpse came out of
the water and went to his house and

744
01:17:46.640 --> 01:17:50.600
told him that if he had to
go at that time he would practically run

745
01:17:50.600 --> 01:17:55.600
it. He said this body didn' t have an eye. Her skin

746
01:17:55.720 --> 01:18:00.960
was peeled. The flesh inside which
one could have seen was rotten, lacking

747
01:18:00.960 --> 01:18:08.439
parts of skin, some fingers.
It was like a corpse, but it

748
01:18:08.520 --> 01:18:13.960
moved and could talk. He told
all his neighbors about this, and he

749
01:18:14.000 --> 01:18:18.960
also told my parents. But obviously, alex how to be realistic, how

750
01:18:19.159 --> 01:18:25.039
you' re going to believe something
like that, especially coming from a person

751
01:18:25.079 --> 01:18:29.319
who' s on the street and
who lost both his partner and recently his

752
01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:32.520
son. Of course, we all
thought he had fallen into madness for what

753
01:18:32.640 --> 01:18:38.119
they only heard. But as the
story ended, they turned around and left

754
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:44.279
feeling very sad. For Don Gerardo, the only thing he had in that

755
01:18:45.119 --> 01:18:50.960
cabin that fell more and more were
his dogs. I was like seven at

756
01:18:50.960 --> 01:18:58.600
the time, but this number of
dogs started to decrease. Some in the

757
01:18:58.640 --> 01:19:04.239
morning appeared lifeless and Don Gerardo said
it was that corpse that was coming out

758
01:19:04.319 --> 01:19:09.399
of the water that was running it
and that, if he wasn' t

759
01:19:09.479 --> 01:19:14.840
going to go for each of his
dogs on different days and at night he

760
01:19:14.880 --> 01:19:21.119
was going to get rid of them
until inevitably his turn. What began to

761
01:19:21.159 --> 01:19:26.359
be said there where I live,
is that Don Gerardo had fallen so much

762
01:19:26.359 --> 01:19:30.840
into the madness that he himself was
taking the dogs' lives, so some

763
01:19:30.960 --> 01:19:35.800
neighbors, with a good heart and
thinking that Don Gerardo no longer had any

764
01:19:35.840 --> 01:19:42.640
kind of salvation, at least mental, went and convinced him to give to

765
01:19:43.319 --> 01:19:49.720
the remaining dogs. As I told
you before, he had about seven or

766
01:19:50.960 --> 01:19:57.239
eight looks, then he only had
three left. Then most, according to

767
01:19:57.399 --> 01:20:01.319
their own words, had arrived.
I' ve been lifeless. Don Gerardo

768
01:20:01.359 --> 01:20:06.680
accepted and gave to those dogs,
but as he gave them, he began

769
01:20:08.560 --> 01:20:14.399
to distance himself. Little by little. He stopped putting in maintenance until he

770
01:20:14.399 --> 01:20:19.640
moved back into the streets. It
seems then alex I would be a few

771
01:20:19.760 --> 01:20:24.720
thirteen or fourteen years old. I
had a dog back then. It was

772
01:20:24.760 --> 01:20:29.880
a big dark- colored dog,
it wasn' t of race, but

773
01:20:29.880 --> 01:20:33.239
it was of big dimensions. He
always followed me everywhere and near where Don

774
01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:41.399
Gerardo lived there was a stream that
was surrounded by stones. There we used

775
01:20:41.479 --> 01:20:45.359
to go play my dog. He
had followed me on some rare occasions,

776
01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:50.359
but he ended up hurting himself because
of the stones and even though I scolded

777
01:20:50.439 --> 01:20:54.520
him not to follow me. At
the end of the day, he always

778
01:20:55.279 --> 01:20:59.840
followed me, so on one occasion
and I regret this very much, we

779
01:21:00.119 --> 01:21:05.399
arrived near the house, or rather
the former house of Don Gerardo. By

780
01:21:05.439 --> 01:21:10.239
this time we all thought he was
simply a gentleman who had lost his sanity,

781
01:21:11.359 --> 01:21:15.880
so nothing he told us we took
him seriously. We were there on

782
01:21:16.000 --> 01:21:23.079
the beach and since my dog can' t swim and he wanted to get

783
01:21:23.159 --> 01:21:26.159
in this one and especially, minutes
later we were going to go to the

784
01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:31.319
Riachuelo. Me and my group of
friends decided to tie my dog there so

785
01:21:31.359 --> 01:21:34.880
he wouldn' t follow us.
Anyway, we weren' t gonna take

786
01:21:34.960 --> 01:21:41.880
just half an hour. And while
my dog was sociable, the truth is

787
01:21:42.039 --> 01:21:46.079
that he was also very brave.
He wasn' t allowed to be caught

788
01:21:46.119 --> 01:21:49.760
by anyone and even on the street. He was a dog of strong character.

789
01:21:50.560 --> 01:21:56.640
I tied him to one of the
trees and left with my friends when

790
01:21:57.359 --> 01:22:02.439
it was getting late, when the
night was just minutes away from getting completely.

791
01:22:03.960 --> 01:22:11.399
I came back for my dog.
My dog was lying totally inert and

792
01:22:11.520 --> 01:22:16.880
lifeless. Obviously, I got sad
and went immediately to tell my father this.

793
01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:23.399
My father had brought him to me
as a child and I also had

794
01:22:23.439 --> 01:22:28.319
a lot of love for him,
so he went immediately to the beach and

795
01:22:28.359 --> 01:22:32.279
went against Don Gerardo. He believed
that in his madness, as he had

796
01:22:32.399 --> 01:22:36.960
taken the lives of other dogs on
the beach, very possibly mine had also

797
01:22:36.960 --> 01:22:42.800
been taken away. But something didn' t add up as much as he

798
01:22:42.880 --> 01:22:45.960
looked from one side to the other
in the company of my uncles and other

799
01:22:45.960 --> 01:22:50.119
neighbors as well. They found no
one, but what one of them says

800
01:22:50.880 --> 01:22:58.920
if he saw, they were footprints
or a very strange tread path. They

801
01:23:00.079 --> 01:23:06.000
were not from any sandal, from
any boot or shoe, or from any

802
01:23:06.119 --> 01:23:13.880
foot he recognized. They were just
like holes in the sand coming out of

803
01:23:14.960 --> 01:23:19.640
the water as far as my dog
was tied looking for Don Gerardo. Many

804
01:23:19.800 --> 01:23:26.359
of the merchants told us that he
was in the square, but that he

805
01:23:26.439 --> 01:23:30.119
had been there all day, that
he had not moved, and that house

806
01:23:30.960 --> 01:23:38.960
he had had, that now was
practically a few wooden planks raised. He

807
01:23:38.960 --> 01:23:44.439
hadn' t been back there for
a long time, he didn' t

808
01:23:44.479 --> 01:23:48.000
feel normal, like an animal'
s lifeless body. My father called a

809
01:23:48.000 --> 01:23:53.319
veterinarian to explain to him what had
happened to him, since there were no

810
01:23:53.399 --> 01:24:00.920
marks that had suffocated him or that
he had been embedded in something like the

811
01:24:00.960 --> 01:24:05.600
dog might have lost his life.
The vet answered my father that something very

812
01:24:05.640 --> 01:24:12.560
strange happened to that dog because it
had no blood. Everything had been drained

813
01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:17.880
as if it had been some sort
of leech. Many believe that what Don

814
01:24:17.960 --> 01:24:24.640
Gerardo lived was because of his madness, but I believe that something he was

815
01:24:24.720 --> 01:24:30.039
saying was right, because some time
later I found out that he said through

816
01:24:30.279 --> 01:24:36.720
talks of the dogs he buried and
that they were already making no life because

817
01:24:36.840 --> 01:24:43.720
of that supposed corpse that visited him, that he was running from there too

818
01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:51.560
it was the same one that took
their blood. Thank you for sharing my

819
01:24:51.560 --> 01:25:00.840
story. Greetings to the whole Community. Not only are the fishermen the ones

820
01:25:00.880 --> 01:25:06.800
who have bad times in the Ocean, the sailors and more specifically and what

821
01:25:06.840 --> 01:25:15.079
this story makes very interesting. Soldiers
from the naval navy also experience paranormal experiences,

822
01:25:15.760 --> 01:25:21.000
such as the following story, which
comes from one of these elements.

823
01:25:23.600 --> 01:25:28.840
Like the first story, this sailor
holds the theory that perhaps souls who lose

824
01:25:30.079 --> 01:25:36.439
their lives at sea never leave it. Maybe it' s not because they

825
01:25:36.720 --> 01:25:42.479
can' t or maybe they don' t want to. Anyway, I

826
01:25:42.479 --> 01:25:46.000
' m pretty sure the next story
will give you to think every time you

827
01:25:46.079 --> 01:25:53.000
go to the beach about poor souls
who keep working and refuse to leave hello

828
01:25:53.039 --> 01:26:05.279
the whole unity thing. My name, that sequiel. The experience I want

829
01:26:05.359 --> 01:26:10.640
to tell you doesn' t come
from me. It' s coming from

830
01:26:10.680 --> 01:26:17.479
my father. This happened a few
years ago, about a decade ago.

831
01:26:19.159 --> 01:26:28.920
My father was a sailor. He
was part of the Mexican Navy, but

832
01:26:28.920 --> 01:26:33.399
he wasn' t terrestrial. He
left in the boats and arrived at different

833
01:26:33.439 --> 01:26:40.479
ports of the Mexican Republic, more
than anything where they occupied him. In

834
01:26:40.520 --> 01:26:48.600
the course of the sea he told
me many things, many rules that had

835
01:26:48.720 --> 01:26:56.239
some popular sayings that sailors have.
And even though if several paranormal things happened

836
01:26:56.319 --> 01:27:06.760
to him, such as seeing silhouette
in the water, seeing even ghost ships

837
01:27:06.920 --> 01:27:13.640
in the morning fog in the sea, there was an experience or rather an

838
01:27:13.840 --> 01:27:24.319
event that left me quite intrigued.
You see, my father says there'

839
01:27:24.399 --> 01:27:31.319
s a certain area near the port
of Veracruz where a tragedy happened. It

840
01:27:31.359 --> 01:27:39.680
happens that they were making an oil
platform, the reasons why it was not

841
01:27:39.800 --> 01:27:47.319
finished. My father does not know
only rumors, but indeed, it had

842
01:27:47.319 --> 01:27:57.760
begun. They had the bases,
the weather, the sea, the climatic

843
01:27:57.800 --> 01:28:02.520
conditions and the zero maintenance that is
given goes to the remains. It caused

844
01:28:02.680 --> 01:28:11.000
this base of the platform to deteriorate
very easily to the degree that, after

845
01:28:11.039 --> 01:28:17.479
a few years, it completely disappeared. As I said before, the reasons

846
01:28:17.520 --> 01:28:25.600
are not known, but what is
known is that lives were lost. Some

847
01:28:25.720 --> 01:28:33.800
workers there died from an accident and
this could be left here as a tragic

848
01:28:33.840 --> 01:28:42.039
story. But the funny thing is
that my father every time he went through

849
01:28:42.159 --> 01:28:47.239
the boat and in the company of
more sailors to get an idea. They

850
01:28:47.279 --> 01:28:55.039
' re naval sailors, they'
re soldiers, they' re not superstitious.

851
01:28:56.319 --> 01:29:01.079
They can only believe in what they
see or what everyone and every time

852
01:29:01.199 --> 01:29:10.439
they went through, a fear invaded
them all equally. And it is that

853
01:29:10.520 --> 01:29:15.439
during the autumn season, by regulating
at sea, when it is dawning,

854
01:29:16.640 --> 01:29:24.880
there is a certain fog, a
fog that prevents them from seeing after a

855
01:29:24.880 --> 01:29:30.159
certain distance. But they can see
silhouettes, they can see things, and

856
01:29:30.199 --> 01:29:39.520
they' re getting closer. The
funny thing here is that when they were

857
01:29:39.600 --> 01:29:47.159
passing through this place, they saw
the silhouette of what seemed to be the

858
01:29:47.159 --> 01:29:55.640
bases of that platform, something that
made no sense because they had already been

859
01:29:56.359 --> 01:30:00.840
there several times, especially during the
day and also at night. The bases

860
01:30:02.079 --> 01:30:09.880
were no longer found, or at
least they were not on the surface the

861
01:30:09.960 --> 01:30:17.560
sea had accidentally devoured them among the
fog they could see and as the ship

862
01:30:17.640 --> 01:30:26.720
approached, these silhouettes of the bases
were disappearing as if the fog took them

863
01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:40.319
with it, as if they were
practically air. Another very strange thing that

864
01:30:40.399 --> 01:30:46.840
happened is that the radar was starting
to fail, so to speak, and

865
01:30:46.960 --> 01:30:51.239
this was often told by the captain
more than anything. I believe that,

866
01:30:51.319 --> 01:30:58.079
in order not to infuse the fear
so much, the radar used to ring

867
01:30:58.199 --> 01:31:04.079
in that area. I' ll
explain this radar to you a lot.

868
01:31:05.319 --> 01:31:12.039
This radar is on the ship and
it' s marking you if something very

869
01:31:13.079 --> 01:31:18.319
big or of heavy proportions, something
huge. You can also catch animals.

870
01:31:19.520 --> 01:31:26.119
It gets closer to the eye ship
only if this thing is big and heavy.

871
01:31:28.119 --> 01:31:33.880
The strange thing is that the radar
didn' t dial anything. But,

872
01:31:33.920 --> 01:31:41.439
however, this one at the same
time had a security system and it

873
01:31:41.479 --> 01:31:49.199
is that if that thing was approaching
and it was approaching and the ship was

874
01:31:49.319 --> 01:31:54.760
not taking evasive action, that is, as if it was going to pass

875
01:31:54.880 --> 01:32:00.720
very close to it or if it
was going to crash flat in front of

876
01:32:00.760 --> 01:32:08.720
it, the radar was starting to
ring over and over and over again it

877
01:32:08.720 --> 01:32:12.760
sounded and sounded in case the sailor
who was in charge didn' t realize

878
01:32:12.760 --> 01:32:18.520
what was happening. The radar alerted
him every time we passed the radar was

879
01:32:19.640 --> 01:32:28.000
activated and not once did my father
and other sailors know what it was all

880
01:32:29.800 --> 01:32:38.720
about. It was like we couldn' t see anything. This happened several

881
01:32:38.720 --> 01:32:45.399
times and for obvious reasons, they
tried to find a logical solution. They

882
01:32:45.399 --> 01:32:53.640
thought maybe I was a big animal
and the mistake they made that my father

883
01:32:54.880 --> 01:33:00.560
was present on one occasion when they
did this. I understand they did it

884
01:33:00.640 --> 01:33:09.239
more times, but my father was
present in one of these and is activating

885
01:33:09.439 --> 01:33:16.720
the microphone. They wanted to know
if they were picking up the sound of

886
01:33:16.720 --> 01:33:24.920
something close to the platform, but
this became more than clear that they never

887
01:33:25.079 --> 01:33:31.159
should have, because out of giving
answers, this did the opposite and was

888
01:33:32.479 --> 01:33:39.720
to give more doubts about this whole
subject. In the microphone you could hear

889
01:33:39.800 --> 01:33:51.239
voices, voices that came from the
bottom of the ocean, voices of people,

890
01:33:51.760 --> 01:34:03.960
voices of men and not only voices, but also blows, metal blows

891
01:34:05.560 --> 01:34:15.920
sounds like tool, As if someone
was working in the bottom of the ocean

892
01:34:16.000 --> 01:34:23.000
multiple times you wanted to reach something
that was logical. In this case,

893
01:34:25.039 --> 01:34:31.960
but it was never possible. That
platform had been abandoned, deteriorated and as

894
01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:38.960
time passed. Only they laid the
foundation at the bottom. There was no

895
01:34:39.079 --> 01:34:46.119
other plant nearby, there was no
company that wanted to work there. My

896
01:34:46.199 --> 01:34:54.119
father says and explains to me that
what is heard in that area are the

897
01:34:54.319 --> 01:35:03.640
workers who lost their lives. They
keep working, They keep doing their jobs.

898
01:35:05.159 --> 01:35:12.359
Maybe they don' t even know
they' re no longer alive and

899
01:35:13.880 --> 01:35:24.479
they' ll be there for eternity. Beyond hiding strange energies souls, the

900
01:35:24.479 --> 01:35:30.600
ocean also hides some things that could
be legends or myths. I think the

901
01:35:30.680 --> 01:35:38.800
most popular would be cracken or sea
monsters. Since the human began embarking on

902
01:35:38.840 --> 01:35:46.479
these oceans many years ago these stories
began, stories of sailors seeing strange creatures

903
01:35:47.479 --> 01:35:59.199
in the ocean. This sailor,
this soldier fervently believes in this. He

904
01:35:59.239 --> 01:36:05.239
assures that there are larger animals,
animals that the human does not know living

905
01:36:05.279 --> 01:36:14.039
in those marines, inhabiting those marine
abysses. And this sounds more and more

906
01:36:14.079 --> 01:36:18.720
and we cannot leave it unnoticed,
for man, the human, has reached

907
01:36:18.760 --> 01:36:26.760
the moon, but they do not
know the depths of our oceans. No

908
01:36:26.760 --> 01:36:32.520
one' s ever come. This
is the limit and the next story is

909
01:36:32.600 --> 01:36:36.159
not going to be anything else,
but to corroborate all that is said.

910
01:36:38.840 --> 01:36:48.000
I hope you enjoy it. Another
story from my father. It happened to

911
01:36:48.079 --> 01:36:55.520
him when he was on board a
fracta, a fracta one of these very

912
01:36:56.399 --> 01:37:03.199
large steel warships completely. He considered
it extremely strange, because, even though

913
01:37:03.239 --> 01:37:11.640
the ship was too large, which
intimidated all animal species, a case like

914
01:37:11.840 --> 01:37:20.800
this happened to him. I don' t know if you' re aware,

915
01:37:21.039 --> 01:37:30.119
but there' s a lot at
sea about animal monsters. Out of

916
01:37:30.159 --> 01:37:38.359
our imagination. I think the most
popular case is the Kracken the Leviathan animals

917
01:37:38.479 --> 01:37:45.399
of enormous proportions that, according to
legends, live in the depths of the

918
01:37:45.439 --> 01:37:53.039
Ocean. My father, with all
the years of experience he has, he

919
01:37:53.039 --> 01:37:57.600
says he believes this. More like. They don' t believe monsters per

920
01:37:57.840 --> 01:38:11.840
se, but they believe that animals
of great proportions, fish, squid,

921
01:38:12.479 --> 01:38:19.920
eels, different species of aquatic animals
live in the depths that are very different

922
01:38:19.960 --> 01:38:26.000
from those we know. He can
attest to this, for on one occasion

923
01:38:26.039 --> 01:38:32.359
he saw what a sea monster,
a sea monster, could say that he

924
01:38:32.479 --> 01:38:42.479
only saw it once and never showed
up again. And it' s this

925
01:38:42.640 --> 01:38:45.840
next story that, luckily, he' s going to explain it to you

926
01:38:45.840 --> 01:38:54.079
himself. It was night we were
in the Gulf of Mexico, almost leaving

927
01:38:54.119 --> 01:39:01.560
this near Yucatán. We had anchored, we were, as it were,

928
01:39:01.840 --> 01:39:09.960
in the open sea, as we
saw nowhere traces of civilization. It was

929
01:39:10.000 --> 01:39:15.079
just the sea and the ship.
On that night, it was up to

930
01:39:15.079 --> 01:39:18.199
me to do the duty shift.
He had to walk from one side to

931
01:39:18.199 --> 01:39:27.000
the other, check some things,
carry a log and stay until about ten

932
01:39:27.079 --> 01:39:30.239
in the morning the next day.
He wasn' t the only one.

933
01:39:30.800 --> 01:39:36.439
This warship is very large, so
there were many more sailors in different locations.

934
01:39:39.840 --> 01:39:45.840
As you know, at the sea
where we were. Once we anchor,

935
01:39:45.319 --> 01:39:53.720
we stop the noise almost completely.
I think there' s more noise

936
01:39:53.720 --> 01:39:59.279
coming from the waves. And it
was for this very detail that I realized

937
01:39:59.319 --> 01:40:08.159
what was happening. I was walking
when suddenly I hear a rumble, a

938
01:40:08.239 --> 01:40:12.520
rumble that' s not normal at
all, it' s not a sound

939
01:40:12.520 --> 01:40:17.199
that makes the fract. It'
s a sound of water, as if

940
01:40:17.319 --> 01:40:26.239
something had fallen, as if someone
had fallen overboard. I identify where the

941
01:40:26.319 --> 01:40:32.520
noise came from and I' m
walking fast towards this place. When my

942
01:40:32.600 --> 01:40:40.560
suspicions arrived, they ended up being
true, because in that place, on

943
01:40:42.279 --> 01:40:45.359
that journey, there was supposed to
be another sailor who, like me,

944
01:40:45.520 --> 01:40:51.680
was playing the night guard, but
he was not without wasting his time.

945
01:40:53.319 --> 01:40:58.399
I looked overboard and I could see
in the water, in that dark water

946
01:40:58.600 --> 01:41:06.640
that there were traces, as if
someone had fallen, call those traces that

947
01:41:06.680 --> 01:41:15.760
leave the water agitated in one place
where the fall comes from. I,

948
01:41:15.800 --> 01:41:19.359
at that moment, could have gone
and set the alarm that maybe the sailor

949
01:41:19.359 --> 01:41:26.520
had fallen. But I find something
strange, and it' s that as

950
01:41:26.560 --> 01:41:33.520
I look closer I see that it' s not the only trail I see

951
01:41:33.600 --> 01:41:39.920
that there are more traces around this
one. I had not heard that more

952
01:41:39.960 --> 01:41:45.880
people had fallen. Until I pay
more attention and see that those traces that

953
01:41:45.960 --> 01:41:50.079
leave the water, all those waves, it' s not a body falling,

954
01:41:51.800 --> 01:41:58.960
but something that was coming out of
the water and that was sticking to

955
01:41:59.000 --> 01:42:05.039
the fract, but something that was
coming out of the water and sticking to

956
01:42:05.239 --> 01:42:12.960
the fracta. I see in that
moment that there are dark lumps coming out

957
01:42:13.079 --> 01:42:17.920
of the water and sticking to the
fracta, sticking to the iron so that

958
01:42:17.920 --> 01:42:23.760
they understand me. It' s
like a salamanchesa comes out of the water

959
01:42:23.800 --> 01:42:31.279
and sticks to them and walks stuck
in steel to the top. When I

960
01:42:31.359 --> 01:42:36.640
paid more attention, I saw that
she found several of these things stuck to

961
01:42:36.720 --> 01:42:44.239
the fracta and that they were not
only stuck, but that they were climbing

962
01:42:44.239 --> 01:42:50.640
super right away, that that wasn' t normal. Those things were moving,

963
01:42:51.960 --> 01:43:00.920
those things were alive. They were
watching me because their eyes were shining

964
01:43:00.039 --> 01:43:06.600
in the dark they were blinking they
were staring at me as they went up.

965
01:43:09.399 --> 01:43:12.920
There were quite a few of them. I think a few forty or

966
01:43:13.720 --> 01:43:17.479
fifty stuck around and still dating more. At the time, all I did

967
01:43:17.600 --> 01:43:24.399
was pull out a gun. By
that time I had already risen in rank.

968
01:43:25.359 --> 01:43:28.279
I approached one of the triggers that
are used to ask for help,

969
01:43:29.760 --> 01:43:36.560
either to warn something or to report
a failure while I pulled it. I

970
01:43:36.760 --> 01:43:44.800
quickly returned to the embroiderment I pulled
out the gun. I set her up

971
01:43:44.800 --> 01:43:49.000
for this. He had also taken
a flashlight that was on the side of

972
01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:57.920
that trigger. I turned on the
flashlight and pointed it down and down at

973
01:43:59.239 --> 01:44:02.760
my gun and it was that with
the light of the flashlight I could see

974
01:44:02.880 --> 01:44:06.800
better what these things were all about
that were coming out of the water.

975
01:44:09.079 --> 01:44:14.960
They had the head like that of
an ajolot, but unlike this animal,

976
01:44:15.319 --> 01:44:21.159
two long extremities came out of them, like the arms of a human,

977
01:44:23.720 --> 01:44:30.039
with which they glued to steel and
climbed their bodies. From what was left

978
01:44:30.000 --> 01:44:39.119
was simply a huge fin, like
those of an electric eel, which he

979
01:44:39.199 --> 01:44:44.399
used to propel himself out of the
water and jump towards the ship. I

980
01:44:44.520 --> 01:44:49.279
was just pointing at them and when
I greeted them, they stopped for a

981
01:44:49.279 --> 01:44:59.239
moment, but they still kept climbing. It should be emphasized that its color

982
01:44:59.439 --> 01:45:06.560
was totally dark. They were coming
up very fast when one of the sailors

983
01:45:06.640 --> 01:45:13.239
came running. This sailor didn'
t have a gun, so he was

984
01:45:13.279 --> 01:45:16.319
just waiting for someone to arrive.
I needed witnesses to do what I was

985
01:45:16.319 --> 01:45:23.680
going to do. I had the
trigger ready. I was just waiting for

986
01:45:23.800 --> 01:45:30.239
someone else. He looked like me
and saw them. He asked me,

987
01:45:30.520 --> 01:45:36.199
but what is that, what is
it? I just started pulling the trigger

988
01:45:36.279 --> 01:45:44.439
and started shooting again and again and
again. Those things I had never seen,

989
01:45:45.800 --> 01:45:50.439
but they had common sense, like
any other animal. As they heard

990
01:45:50.439 --> 01:45:59.760
the detonations, they started jumping back
into the water. Not all of them

991
01:45:59.800 --> 01:46:08.000
were just nearby. Obviously the shots
attracted more people, more sailors. I

992
01:46:08.039 --> 01:46:15.920
kept shooting, while the other sailor
just looked astounded. I looked at him

993
01:46:15.039 --> 01:46:20.199
and I told him you saw them. He said yes to me. I

994
01:46:20.279 --> 01:46:27.800
answered with a ok. I told
him I need you, because if there

995
01:46:27.800 --> 01:46:30.680
' s no proof. If there' s no witnesses like you, they

996
01:46:30.720 --> 01:46:33.039
' re gonna think I' m
crazy. You don' t have a

997
01:46:33.119 --> 01:46:36.960
gun, don' t worry,
I' ll just take your words.

998
01:46:39.119 --> 01:46:44.199
I kept firing until, finally,
each and every one of these things went

999
01:46:45.680 --> 01:46:51.920
back to sea. I wasn'
t gonna let them get onboard. Among

1000
01:46:53.000 --> 01:46:58.880
all the sailors who arrived came a
Petty Officer I explained to him what I

1001
01:47:00.159 --> 01:47:05.920
had seen and that not only that, but one of the sailors who was

1002
01:47:06.000 --> 01:47:14.680
supposed to be taking care of it, that part had disappeared and that,

1003
01:47:14.920 --> 01:47:21.479
according to my suspicions, perhaps it
had fallen overboard or worse had taken it,

1004
01:47:21.880 --> 01:47:30.680
even though I had my history and
the other sailor rectified everything that he

1005
01:47:30.800 --> 01:47:36.479
had done. It was hard to
believe, but at the end of the

1006
01:47:36.600 --> 01:47:42.039
day, they didn' t treat
me crazy. The evidence was there and

1007
01:47:42.079 --> 01:47:48.560
the disappearance of an element was also
there. A boat went down, searching

1008
01:47:48.600 --> 01:47:55.000
all over the area and around the
entire fract on a perimeter for the missing

1009
01:47:56.159 --> 01:48:04.560
sailor, but it didn' t
matter all those efforts couldn' t find

1010
01:48:04.560 --> 01:48:13.439
him. This left me as an
experience that, in short, the sea

1011
01:48:13.560 --> 01:48:26.319
the Ocean is immense too large and
that in it animal things creatures are hidden

1012
01:48:26.520 --> 01:48:35.000
that escape our imagination. Whether they
are too big or in this case some

1013
01:48:35.039 --> 01:48:41.319
small beings, because I do not
calculate those animals more than a meter,

1014
01:48:41.600 --> 01:48:48.760
but they were quite numerous, as
they moved by herd, something that certainly

1015
01:48:48.840 --> 01:48:58.199
left me a good teaching to be
on the lookout, even when everything is

1016
01:48:58.239 --> 01:49:05.640
quiet, when there is absolute tranquility, because it is at those times when

1017
01:49:05.800 --> 01:49:16.600
nothing is expected that the worst things
happen. Those were my stories. Thank

1018
01:49:16.600 --> 01:49:21.039
you for allowing me to share them.
