Top 3 IMPOSSIBLE places people were found | Missing 411 (Part 13)

11:44 Freddie gonna get ya

Things I’ve learned from Mr. Ballen, 1. Stay away from the woods 2. Stay away from swamps 3. Don’t go in caves 4. Don’t go scuba diving 5. Don’t go hiking 6.Don’t go scuba diving in caves, the woods or in a swamp while hiking

If my two year old is lost in the woods I'm not going to bed lol. Get ready for a long night of walking.

About the animals helping him... my dad was a radio operator in the Navy during the Korean War. A part of his job was to communicate when a person was saved from the ocean. He'd take down their story to communicate to headquarters. Many stories involved either whales or dolphins protecting them by interacting with them, helping them stay afloat and saving them from sharks. It doesn't surprise me at all that animals would protect a small child.

"Everyone thought someone else was watching him." LITERALLY. so important to recognize that habit. I'm personally not good with kids but my mom absolutely loves kiddos and whenever I've tagged along to some place with kids, I've been making the conscious decision that, when I go chill in the background, I will watch the kids who stray. When a kid runs off to the side of the yard or behind a tree while everyone else is paying attention to the crowd, I watch for that kid. Makes me feel happy and thankfully nothing bad has happened, but it's something I can do that fits my comfort zone AND really helps.

Could you imagine going camping with him? " hey, you guys wanna hear a story?"

Trainer: "Sorry I think my dog made a mistake" Dog: "Know your place, human..."

I started watching MrBallen about 1 year ago and these disappearance stories freaked me out. Then I got inspired to help those who have lost their loved ones find them. I joined a big search organization and I went on my first search today. It's truly incredible how so many people are willing to come together and help out when someone is missing. It makes you believe in humanity. I will definitely continue this type of "work". Thank you MrBallen for inspiring me to do this.

Nobody gonna talk about where the cat went in the first story lol.

Everyone just watches a toddler run into the woods like ‘he’ll be fine :)’

Scout: hey, someone is missing! 1600 people: not in this fucking town, they ain’t. Let’s go.

I lost my dog one night tracking a deer. He bolted with his leash still on. I was afraid he might get tangled in the brush and get stuck somewhere on the mountain. I spent from 8pm to 1:30 am finding him. He was still on the move after a wounded deer. I can’t imagine parents sitting in their house saying “well it’s just too dark and cold to look for our missing son outside. Let’s just wait till the morning!” I would be even more frantically searching for him at that point.

I went out in the middle of the night, in the middle of a storm, in the middle of the woods, looking for my dog…I can’t imagine going home for the night while a child was missing.

I love how this channel isn't over dramatized. No scary music, no low voices, no weird cadence to his speech, and he doesn't act like obviously made up stories are true.

The cows could be moose? I'm from rural NH and moose seem to really like bogs/swamps. Moose are terrifying, they're incredibly large and have creepy long faces. If I was 2 years old I might mislabel them as cows.

Concerning Bud. I was in the US Army 8 years- 11C MOS (mortars/infantry). We had a guy in a platoon I was in. He was a pretender. He was always wanting to slip away from actual soldiering and go play 'Rambo'. Sneak around by himself and see what he could get into. We were in the field once (Hohenfels, Germany), and this was a big Mechanized Unit with Bradleys and 113s all camped out in the Battalion Staging Area before we engaged with the OPFOR. It had snowed and it was about knee deep. This dude told his squad leader he was going for a piss and was gone for hours. Finally, the Platoon Leader gets a call on the radio from Battalion HQ/TOC saying they had this dude over there and that he was 'lost'. Dummy had slipped out of our Platoon A/O and decided he wanted to try to sneak up on the Pogues over at Battalion. And he did... sort of. But he couldn't find his way back in the dark (and on a field exercise, you're in black-out dark conditions), so he was forced to walk into Battalion HQ and basically tell them what a Soup Sandwich he was. LOL, Platoon Leader woke up the Platoon SGT and made him go pick the dude up. They made a detour on the way back and Platoon SGT smoked him beside the tank trail in the snow for a half hour while explaining to him what a f--- up he was. But, anyway... Given this Bud guy was kind of outdoor type and was looking forward to this assignment, it wouldn't surprise me to find out that he simply took it upon himself to walk to the top of that mountain because... it's there. He probably underestimated the distance (hills and mountains are bedevilling when it comes to guessing how far away they are). He probably fell into that crevice and got stuck the same way Jessica McClure fell into that well back in the 80s. You'd never think someone could fall down into such a tight space, but there it is.

I like the stories when the kids are found safe.

That bloodhound was like "My nose knows bro."

Alternative take on Story 3: Bud was SUPER annoying, so the others pulled a like button-esque murder and put him the only place they KNEW no one would find him and lied on the official report.

In the last story, what if Bud was murdered by his battle buddies for something we don't know about and they took it to the grave.
