26 year old Australian tourist Sally Contarino disappeared from Las Vegas, NV on June 20th, 2026. There’s been no trace of her since.

Sally Contarino arrived in Las Vegas on June 13th, 2026. She was an experienced solo traveler that regularly visited California and Nevada.

On June 20th, she told a friend in Australia that she planned to hike on Lone Mountain, outside of Las Vegas. She checked out of her hostel and asked the front desk to watch her luggage. She then traveled to the outskirts of Las Vegas, where she was last seen on surveillance at a grocery store (image on right) purchasing water and protein bars.

After this, it’s believed she started walking several miles down the road toward the mountain.

It’s unknown exactly what happened to her after this. She missed her flight home to Australia that was booked for either the 20th or 21st, and no one has heard from her since.

Lone Mountain is 19 miles from the grocery store where Sally was last spotted. It’s unknown if she planned to walk the whole way there (her family says she loved very long walks), or if she may have hitchhiked or planned to meet up with someone. Scent dogs did pick up on her scent on one of the trails at the mountain, indicating that she made it there at some point during her trip.

Both ground searches and drone searches have been done, neither have found any trace of Sally. Her sisters fear she may have met foul play. Police haven’t indicated if they believe she got lost hiking, or if she may have met foul play.

Dead in a dishwasher : the Christopher Morris case

On September 25, 2000, An 11 year old Christopher Aaron Morris was found dead in a dishwasher in his house,which was located on the Sheppard Air Force Base (a military base) of Wichita County,Texas. He lived there with his dad,Who was a worker at the base.

On the day of his death, Christopher was alone in the house. At around 2 pm,his dad returned home from work, only to find Christopher missing. He went to look for him in his room and found dishwasher racks stacked on the bed,after which he obviously went to check the dishwasher. Inside he found the wet, naked body of Christopher. He had gone through a full cycle of the dishwasher,washing away all the possible DNA that couldve been left on him,in case someone else was involved in his death.There were no signs of forced entry or anything suspicious in the house.

Anyone would think that such a horrifying death in a quiet town of Wichita Falls would cause nationwide attention,but thats not true.

Little to no information about this case is available to the public,and theres almost nothing about him on the internet (I’ll list every source of information i can find below.)

In fact,one of the only things that can confirm that Christopher’s death actually happened is this newspaper article from Sheppard Air Force’s regional newspaper.in which,they express their condolences to those mourning Christopher’s death,and reassure everyone that the local police,with the help of FBI,will bring the truth forward.though,no further information about the case was disclosed.

(Interesting detail - In the article,they ask the public not to talk about this case,as to keep the rumors down and help the investigators get the correct information.could this be an attempt at covering Christopher’s death up and hoping for it to be forgotten?)

This is the most you can learn from the original sources.the authorities havent publicly classified the case as homicide. The autopsy reports were never released to the public either,so we dont know if he had sustained any injuries or bodily harm that could possibly direct the case towards a murder. (He had injuries from being boiled a dishwasher though) The only suspect there has ever been was his father,but he had an alibi of working at the Air Force Base on the time of his death and this idea was quickly forgotten.

It is speculated that Christopher died after he was locked and washed in the dishwasher.

the police had no leads and with nothing to follow,the case grew cold...

Though,it doesnt end here.the many odd details and inconsistencies in the case leaves us with a lot of unanswered questions : was it an accidental death or foul play?why was he naked?WHY IS THERE SO LITTLE INFORMATION ABOUT HIM?

First,i would like to point out the fact that the case was never determined to be a murder,which leaves us with one option : accidental death.Christopher (for some unknown crazy reasons) couldve gotten in the dishwasher himself.Though,people discussing this case suggest that this is an impossible situation,because at the time of his death in 2000 the dishwashers werent as advanced,and could only be turned on AFTER it was closed. His sister has also confirmed that this is true. So,the version of Christopher getting in the dishwasher is very unlikely, since he couldnt have turned it on himself. (remember,the dishwasher door had to be locked.)

So following all of the above we have a theory that someone locked Christopher (or somehow made him willingly get inside while being nude) in the dishwasher,and manually turned it on from the outside afterwards. Supporting this theory is the fact that there was allegedly a handprint left behind on the dishwasher,though its unknown as to why the police never pursued this theory.

Another weird fact is that Christopher lived in a gated residence of the Sheppard air force,where no outsiders could enter easily.could it have been the inside work of the Air Force? it would make sense as to why the police buried this case,why they asked everyone to be quiet,and disclosed no details to the public..

And this isnt the weirdest part yet.as i said before, theres very little information about Christopher’s death online,and about 90% of those come from true crime podcasts or facebook posts discussing this bizzare case.There's not one actual report on it.

Though,we can find him on a..rather unusual site.

In the early 2000s, there used to be a BlogSpot site ran by someone named PenileCodeAvenger, dedicated to sharing the cases of domestic violence. (Simply put,think of it as a self-run subreddit about domestic violence.) though,there is one post that stands out.

On May 17, 2005, PenileCodeAvenger would make an out of the ordinary and oddly specific post about children’s death on military bases. well,there’s nothing alarming about the post itself,since the site was all about bringing awareness to stuff like that.

The weirdest part about this post was the comments that would follow it.as much as there was no direct mention of Christopher in the post,almost all of the comments were talking about Christopher Morris.even more,they all claimed to know him personally, saying stuff like “i used to be his friend” “im his cousin” “im his classmate” and all of them are demanding info about the case.theyre written in a bot like manner,they all carry the same narrative...You get the idea.Very weird.

Why in the hell would the only ever mention of Christopher Morris online,would be on a random unpopular BlogSpot website,one that specifically talks about the topic of domestic violence?How did these people even find this niche post? How are they all his friends,classmates,those who used to know him?? The idea of those people finding this random website at the same time would be close to very unlikely.The accounts seem to be made shortly before/after the post too.

Basically,what im saying is that someone who was weirdly obsessed with Chris’s case made all these accounts claiming to be related to him and demanded information from the public.

Yes,it's possible that those people are infact,real. But then again,how did they find this post? And seemingly consecutively? They couldn't have searched up "Christopher Morris" on the internet and found it,because there is no direct mention of Christopher in the post itself,only in the comments (and the first few of them dont even mention his name,just refer to him as the kid who died in the dishwasher)

And that’s not all..

If you search up Christopher Morris on reddit and scroll through the posts and the comments, you will surely encounter people who STILL claim to had known him back then. I mean,come on...What are the odds of this being real? How do all of those people know a random 11 year old boy from a small town,living in a gated community? and who are those sick people pretending to be others and why? WHY IS EVERY DETAIL ABOUT THIS CASE JUST STRAIGHT UP OFF PUTTING?

I have read many,many unsettling true crime cases,but this is the only one that has kept me awake for days,pondering my mind with the question : just what in the world happened to Christopher Aaron Morris??..

The only theory that makes sense is that this was a dare or a bad prank that went wrong. His friends could have pursuaded him to go into the dishwasher,then locked him inside and washed him.

but...this doesnt seem right either. His dad had only been gone for 2-3 hours. He lived in a gated community where someone must have seen something. and why was he naked?...

to many,it sounds like a military cover-up.they wouldnt like their reputation tarnished.the details line up. No autopsy released,the case wasnt investigated thoroughly, not classified as homicide,no information available about him and the police asking the community to keep quiet?? this is too suspicious. But even if this was the case,why would they do it?it still doesnt make any sense.

I hope this post reaches the right audience and brings attention to this horrifying death. RIP ro Christopher Aaron Morris. P.S since i was asked by many to make a separate post about this case, i'll be posting this in many communities.

Disappearance Of 17 Year Old Boy

12 years after his disappearance, the story of 17-year-old Guram Dadianidze has resurfaced, sparking widespread outrage and raising critical questions.
In June 2014, Guram traveled from the Temka neighborhood to Mleta, Georgia, for the Lomisoba festival alongside 15 neighbors. Due to the rugged mountain terrain, they left their minibus in the village of Mleta and hiked up to the shrine on foot. According to the participants, they began their descent at around 2:00 AM. Official reports state that during the walk down, Guram sat on a stone to rest, just 300 to 500 meters away from their vehicle. He allegedly asked the others to go ahead, saying he would catch up. When a neighbor returned to check on him just minutes later, Guram was completely gone. He had no phone, leaving no digital trace, and police found no initial signs of violence. For years, the investigation remained stalled —until a newly surfaced video went viral, throwing the case back into the spotlight. In the video, Guram's mother recognizes what she firmly believes is her son's voice pleading: "(name) don't leave me, please. "1
While authorities claim to have questioned everyone involved, there are glaring contradictions and inconsistencies throughout the witness statements and interrogation records. The timeline surrounding the trip's planning, the exact moments leading up to his disappearance, and the actual circumstances of that night remain deeply suspect. It is clear that members of that group know more than they are letting on. Guram's mother has waited 12 years for answers, and bringing public awareness to this case is essential to demanding the truth.

The Disappearance of Guram “Gurika” Dadianidze.

Please read and pay attention to every detail i write in this because this is one of the most bizarre and disturbing cases of the country georgia. The whole country is actively trying to solve this case with their own contributions to finally find the truth and help a single mother who has been searching for her only son for the past 12 years.

In 2014, 17-year-old Guram “Gurika” Dadianidze disappeared during a trip to Lomisa in Georgia. Twelve years later, he has still not been found, and the circumstances surrounding his disappearance remain unresolved

What makes the case particularly troubling is not simply that Gurika vanished in a mountainous area at night. It is the number of unanswered questions surrounding the people who were with him that night,including accounts that appear to have changed over the years.

What Happened That Night?
Gurika traveled to Lomisa with a group of young people for the religious festival. According to accounts that circulated after his disappearance, the group eventually began making its way back.

One of the central versions of events was that Gurika sat down on a rock and told the others to continue, saying that he would catch up with them.

That explanation has become one of the most controversial parts of the case.

According to recent reporting, however, at least one person who had previously given an account consistent with this version later told Gurika’s mother something different — reportedly saying that they had never actually seen Gurika there. When his mother questioned the change, the explanation reportedly amounted to: “I don’t know.”

That contradiction is significant. It does not, by itself, prove that anyone harmed Gurika or deliberately lied. But it raises an obvious question:

Why did the account change?

The People Who Were With Him

The people who accompanied Gurika have faced renewed scrutiny because of inconsistencies reportedly found between their accounts.

Recent online discussions and media reports describe multiple people from the original group being questioned again, with claims that some statements do not completely match earlier versions of events.

One particularly important issue concerns the exact moment when Gurika was last seen.

If the original account is correct, Gurika was left behind voluntarily and was expected to catch up with the group. But if that account is inaccurate, then the timeline of his disappearance could be completely different.

That distinction matters enormously.

A person disappearing alone in the mountains is one scenario. A person disappearing after an argument, confrontation, accident, or other event involving people who were with him is another.

At present, there is not enough verified evidence to say which scenario occurred.

“Kakha” — The Name Heard in the New Recording

A newly resurfaced video has added another disturbing element to the case.

The recording reportedly contains a male voice saying words interpreted as:

“Kakha, don’t leave me, please.”

Gurika’s mother, Sopho Bibilashvili, says she recognizes the voice as her son’s. Her lawyer, Tariel Kakabadze, has also brought attention to the recording.

However, the recording’s authenticity and the identity of the person speaking have not yet been conclusively established. It therefore cannot currently be treated as proof that Gurika was alive at the time the video was recorded or that a particular person was responsible for anything that happened to him. (Narratives⁠**)**

Nevertheless, the name Kakha is potentially important because it corresponds to a person associated with the group and has become part of the questions surrounding the case.

According to accounts circulating about the case, Kakha has maintained a different position about Gurika’s fate, including the possibility that Gurika left and remained alive. These claims should be treated as allegations and reported statements rather than established facts.

Why Are the Changing Stories So Important?

In a missing-person investigation, witnesses do not necessarily remember events perfectly. Twelve years is a very long time, and people can misremember details without intentionally deceiving investigators.

But when accounts concern the last known moments of a missing teenager, discrepancies become especially important.

Some of the questions that remain include:
Who was the last person to actually see Gurika?
At what exact time was he last seen?
Was he really sitting alone on rock?
Why did one person’s account reportedly change?
Who was using the phone that allegedly appeared in photographs from that night?
Who was “Kakha” in the reported audio?
When and where exactly was the new video recorded?
Why were the people who were with Gurika unable to provide a definitive explanation for what happened to him?
Were all relevant witnesses questioned again as new information emerged?

None of these questions proves criminal involvement. But together, they demonstrate why Gurika’s family continues to demand answers.

The Family’s Fight for Answers

Gurika’s mother, Sopho Bibilashvili, has spent years trying to determine what happened to her son.

In June 2026, she publicly called for renewed investigation and for the area to be searched with specialized equipment. She has repeatedly emphasized that she wants to find her child, regardless of whether he is alive or deceased. (tvpirveli.ge⁠**)**

Her position is important: she is asking for answers, not publicly declaring that a particular person is guilty.

That distinction matters because there is currently no publicly established evidence proving that any of Gurika’s companions killed him, abducted him, or deliberately concealed his whereabouts.

A Case Still Without a Conclusion

The newest developments do not provide a definitive answer. Instead, they make the unanswered questions even more important.

If the new recording is authentic and the voice is proven to be Gurika’s, investigators could potentially gain a new piece of evidence about his final known movements. If witnesses’ statements genuinely contradict one another, those discrepancies also deserve careful examination.

But suspicion is not proof.

The people whose accounts have attracted attention should not be declared responsible without evidence establishing their involvement. The proper question is not “Who is guilty?” but rather:

“What actually happened to Gurika Dadianidze, and why have the people who were closest to his final known movements been unable to provide a consistent account?”

Twelve years later, that question remains unanswered.

And until Gurika is found or reliable evidence establishes what happened to him, the case remains an open mystery one in which every contradiction, every witness statement, and every newly discovered piece of evidence could matter.

In 1966, Two Brazilian Electronics Technicians Were Found Dead Wearing Lead Masks, With a Cryptic Notebook and Missing Capsules

In August 1966, two electronics technicians, Manoel Pereira da Cruz and Miguel José Viana, traveled from Campos dos Goytacazes to Vintém Hill near Niterói, Brazil.

They were found dead on the hill several days later, lying on their backs in suits and waterproof raincoats. Both had lead masks covering their eyes. There were no obvious injuries, and their belongings were still with them.

A small notebook found nearby contained a strange set of instructions. It mentioned arriving at a specific location at 16:30, taking capsules, protecting metals, and waiting for a “mask signal.”

No capsules were ever found.

The deaths were never explained. Toxicology testing at the time was limited, and much of the biological evidence was lost before more extensive testing could be done.

Over the years, the case became closely associated with UFOs and claims about spiritist experiments. Some of those stories are difficult to verify, while the notebook and the circumstances surrounding the deaths are much better documented.

The lead masks are what made the case famous, but the missing capsules may be one of the more important details.

The 1974 TWA Flight 514 historical mystery: 92 killed when a Boeing 727 crashed into Mount Weather near a secret US facility. This disaster became one of the most mysterious aviation tragedies.

On December 1, 1974, TWA Flight 514 disappeared into thick clouds while approaching Washington Dulles International Airport. Minutes later, the Boeing 727 slammed into the western slope of Mount Weather in Virginia. All 92 people on board were killed.

The disaster became one of the darkest aviation tragedies in the region. Yet the crash also drew attention to something few Americans knew much about at the time: a secretive federal facility hidden near the mountain where the aircraft came down.

The Disappearance of 17-Year-Old Guram Dadianidze — A 12-Year-Old Unresolved Case in Georgia

I want to share a Georgian missing-person case that has remained unresolved for 12 years and has recently received renewed attention because of a newly circulated 2014 video.
Guram Dadianidze was 17 years old when he disappeared on June 11, 2014, in the village of Kvemo Mleta, in Georgia’s Dusheti municipality. He had gone to the area with relatives, neighbors and friends for the traditional Lomisa religious festival.
He has never been found.
What happened that night?
A group of people from Tbilisi traveled to Mleta for the Lomisa celebration. After spending time at the shrine, they began returning toward their vehicle during the early morning hours.
According to the later official reconstruction, Guram was walking with the group when he stopped and sat down on a rock to rest. The location was reportedly only around 300–500 meters from the vehicle.
Guram apparently told the others to continue and said that he would catch up.
They continued walking.
After several minutes, they realized Guram had not followed them. Someone went back with a flashlight to look for him.
But Guram was gone.
His phone was reportedly not with him, making it impossible to simply track or call him.
A search began shortly afterward.
What makes the case complicated?
There have been different accounts about the exact circumstances of Guram’s disappearance.
Some early reports placed his last known location near the school in Lower Mleta, while other accounts referred to the area around the church.
The family has also questioned whether all of the original witnesses gave completely accurate accounts.
One of the people connected to that night is Kakha Gelashvili.
His daughter, Ani Gelashvili, was also with Guram during the trip.
In a recent interview with TV Pirveli, Ani described what she remembers about the final moments before Guram disappeared.
According to her account, Guram was last seen by their friend Tini. Guram apparently told him to go ahead and said he would catch up.
When Guram had not appeared after about five minutes, Kakha Gelashvili went back to look for him.
Ani says that Kakha returned alone.
She also claims that rescue and patrol crews were already very close to the area — only a few meters away — and that they were informed about Guram’s disappearance very quickly.
She disputes reports that the group immediately left for Tbilisi, changed their clothes and then returned to Mleta. According to her, they remained in the area throughout the night together with local people, police and rescuers.
These are Ani’s recollections, rather than independently established findings.
The 2014 video that resurfaced 12 years later
This is where the case becomes particularly strange.
A video recorded in 2014 recently began circulating online.
A young male voice can be heard saying:
“Kakha, don’t leave me, please.”
Guram’s mother, Sopho Bibilashvili, believes that the voice is her son’s.
She says she recognized Guram immediately.
If the voice really is Guram’s, it could be extremely significant.
But there is a major dispute over that identification.
Ani Gelashvili says the voice is NOT Guram
Ani Gelashvili, Kakha Gelashvili’s daughter and Guram’s friend, was interviewed by TV Pirveli.
She says she is certain that the voice is not Guram’s.
Her argument is particularly interesting because she personally knew Guram and was with him during the 2014 trip.
Ani said, essentially, that Guram’s mother has been traumatized by twelve years of searching for her son and may hear similarities to Guram’s voice because she desperately wants to find him.
She made an important distinction:
The video itself could be completely real and unedited, while the voice in the video could still belong to somebody else.
According to Ani, the identity of the voice has to be established by forensic examination, not by either woman’s personal certainty. (EXCLUSIVENEWS.GE)
And this is where I think the case becomes genuinely interesting.
Because we now have two people who knew Guram personally giving completely opposite opinions:
His mother:
“I recognize my son’s voice.”
His friend Ani:
“I am certain that is not Guram’s voice.”
Neither statement by itself is forensic proof.
Why does the name “Kakha” matter?
The recording apparently contains the words:
“Kakha, don’t leave me, please.”
That is obviously interesting because Kakha Gelashvili was one of the people connected to the original trip.
However, the fact that the voice says “Kakha” does not prove that the speaker is Guram or that Kakha was involved in anything criminal.
It is simply a potentially important clue that investigators would need to explain.

The timeline problem
There is another major issue.
According to the official reconstruction, Guram disappeared during the early morning of June 11, 2014.
The person who reportedly recorded the newly circulated video told investigators that the video was recorded at approximately 3:00 p.m. on June 11, 2014.
If both timelines are correct, that means the recording was made approximately 11 hours after Guram was reportedly last seen.
That creates an obvious investigative question:
Where was Guram during those 11 hours, if the voice in the recording is actually his?
And if the voice is not his, then:
Who was the boy speaking, and why was he saying “Kakha, don’t leave me”?
This is why the forensic examination of the original recording and the voice is potentially much more important than simply asking whether Guram’s mother or Ani is more convincing.
The mother’s reaction to Ani’s interview
Guram’s mother publicly responded to Ani’s statements.
She was extremely upset by the interview and questioned why Ani was now saying these things.
Sopho said, in substance, that she does not understand why people are confusing the investigation and why they would not want the case to reach the truth.
She continues to believe that her son may be alive and that the voice in the video belongs to him.
She has also questioned whether the phones of the people who were with Guram in 2014 were properly examined and whether their messages, photographs and other communications could contain information about what happened.
Again, these are the mother’s concerns, not established findings of criminal conduct. (EXCLUSIVENEWS.GE)
The landslide theory
Over the years, one possible explanation was that Guram might have fallen into difficult terrain or been caught in a landslide.
The family has continued to question this possibility.
More recent searches were conducted in the area, including searches involving equipment intended to examine the terrain.
No confirmed evidence has been publicly reported showing that Guram was buried by a landslide.

The biggest unresolved question
The case can almost be reduced to one enormous question:
If the 3 p.m. video really was recorded on June 11, 2014, and the voice really belongs to Guram, then what happened to him between his disappearance in the early morning and the time of that recording?
But there is an equally important alternative:
If the video is genuine but the voice is not Guram’s, then who is the boy speaking — and why is he saying “Kakha, don’t leave me”?
At this point, neither possibility has been conclusively established.

Scientists believe they may have found Count Dracula’s burial place after decoding a mysterious 15th-century tomb inscription

Italian scientists have announced the possible discovery of the burial site of Vlad the Impaler, ruler of Wallachia. He is also known as Count Dracula.

For the past few years, they have been studying the inscription on the tombstone from the Turbolo Chapel. Having deciphered the text, the researchers concluded that it is connected to Count Dracula.

At a conference in Romania, the scientists stated that the text is a panegyric to Vlad III.

It mentions "Vlad, ruler of the Wallachians," who was killed twice, fled from his enemies, and departed in peace, praising God, after which he was awarded the title of martyr.

OTRO FRAUDE MAS ESTILO JAIME MAUSSAN.

​

​Desmontando otra narrativa sensacionalista: Análisis de "Alien Archivist" y el caso Killmer

​Hola a todos.

​Últimamente he visto circular este enlace de Substack ([alienarchivist.substack.com/p/killmer](https://alienarchivist.substack.com/p/killmer)) y creo que es fundamental hacer un control de calidad y desenmascarar el patrón que sigue este tipo de publicaciones antes de que se venda como "evidencia" o "revelación exclusiva".

​Aquí detallo los puntos débiles y las banderas rojas (red flags) de este texto:

​1. Falta de fuentes primarias y verificables

​El artículo recurre a la clásica táctica del storytelling conspirativo: nombres de supuestos testigos, agencias de inteligencia o archivos "clasificados" de los que curiosamente no existe un solo registro oficial, documento desclasificado mediante FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) ni rastro académico/periodístico independiente.

​2. Formato Substack y monetización del sensacionalismo

​Substack es una plataforma excelente para blogs independientes, pero carece de revisión por pares (peer-review) o control editorial. Muchos creadores de contenido crean narrativas ficticias o exageran historias del fenómeno UAP/extraterrestre para construir una audiencia cautiva, ganar suscriptores de pago o generar tráfico a través de teorías de conspiración.

​3. Estructura narrativa cliché (El patrón del fraude)

​El héroe/informante incomprendido: Presentan la historia de "Killmer" bajo el tropo del científico, militar o investigador que descubrió la "verdad" y fue silenciado o ignorado por el establishment.

​Datos técnicos imprecisos: Se utilizan pseudotérminos científicos o jerga militar vaga para dar una falsa sensación de rigurosidad, sin aportar ecuaciones, análisis espectrográficos ni metodologías replicables.

​Efecto "La prueba definitiva está por llegar": Prometen revelaciones o continuación de los datos, pero nunca entregan evidencia dura (imágenes en alta resolución, muestras físicas analizadas por laboratorios independientes, etc.).

​4. Incoherencias históricas y de contexto

​Al contrastar la cronología planteada en el texto con registros históricos o eventos conocidos del fenómeno UAP, la narrativa se cae por su propio peso o recicla mitos urbanos ya desmentidos en los años 80 y 90, adaptándolos con nombres nuevos para una audiencia moderna.

​Conclusión

​Debemos aprender a separar la investigación seria del fenómeno de los blogs que lucran con la credulidad. Si un post de Substack no ofrece documentos cotejables, cadenas de custodia claras para sus afirmaciones o respaldo de investigadores reconocidos, no es más que ficción especulativa disfrazada de investigación.

The Philadelphia Experiment: What Really Happened?

The legend says the USS Eldridge was used in a secret Navy experiment that allegedly made the ship invisible.

The Navy denies it ever happened, and there’s no solid evidence proving the story.

In 2016 a guy posted this photo on 4chan claiming he's in North Korea right now. Can anyone identifies this place?

https://youtu.be/5c8ck8o\_\_gs?si=UTdiDiwaENcQ4wOU

When I was chilling looking for good YouTube video this one was on recommendation so I clicked it. The second story of the video, absolutely hooked me, it starts from 3:54

According to the video, in 2016, a guy posted this photo on 4chan claiming he's in North Korea right now. He said he smuggled internet modem from Chinese border, took this photo in hotel in North Korea and posted it on the board.

At first, people in the thread OP was just faking up story, and posted some replies like "Do anti-government thing" in your hotel.

However, once the time passes some people started to think OP was not faking at all, some concerned OP should stop the connection with the internet right now.

Well, here's the thing. I'm a South Korean myself, so I know about North Korea more than most people.

It's absolutely true North Korea doesn't allow any foreigners visiting the state posting photos or videos online.

Just like the video mentioned, the most infamous case is Otto Warmbier. A college student who "supposedly" trying to steal propaganda poster in North Korean hotel (at least that's how the government claimed), arrested, stood on trial, and although the US government managed to make a deal of sending him back to his country, turned out he was already dead on arrival due to acute tortures. Yes, North Korea is that serious.

However, if someone's brave and reckless enough, it is possible to film a video on spycam, and then upload it online after leaving North Korea.

Most famously some reckless foreigners once took a video of the fifth floor of North Korean hotel and then uploaded it on YouTube after arriving to their home country.

Yes, this was absolutely stupid activity. Not only they entered the forbidden floor, and filmed it, they even got caught by one of the staff members in the hotel. If the person took the video was alone, not having companions, he really could've had same fate as Otto.

Anyway, back to the thread. Although OP did leave some few replies, he only vaguely revealed where he was at that moment. And alas, some trolls in the thread started to report the photo to North Korean government officials emails and threatened the OP. People genuinely said "enjoy your time in death camp."

After this, OP didn't leave any further replies and the thread was close.

Due to this reason, some people speculated OP was arrested, secretly punished by the government and never seen again.

However, I think this is unlikely. If OP really traveled to North Korea, pretty sure he had alerted that to some of his acquaintances. And if he hasn't been heard for many days, they would've alerted to the states and his story should've been all over the news. Unless, well, he was totally alone and never told anyone about his trip.

This was the first time I've ever heard about this case until I saw the video. I tried to search about it online but seems like no one has discussed about it further.

My personal speculation is, the OP was most likely lying. Although the overall gloomy and dystopian atmosphere of the photo does remind me of North Korea, there are many other places like this in Eastern Europe, Russia, or even China.

I think the place where the photo was took could be either Harbin or Yanbian. Due to the fact that born are regions very close to North Korean border and many Chinese-Korean people living there, the overall place are sort of similar to North Korea.

Still, I think this photo really intrigued me in many ways. What do you guys think? Do you think OP was telling the truth, or if he was lying, where the place could possibly be?
