From the demise of the dinosaurs, to the death of Jesus, to the shooting of JFK, what mystery grabs you attention enough that you want to finally give the world the definitive answer, with proof?

Flight 370 tops my list right now. My first thought was Earhart and then Hoffa.

Truly, I would like to understand more of the history behind the Antikythera mechanism. How it was developed, designed and built as much as what it does.

@SQUEEKY2, frozen caramel.
@dxs, one, two, three, CRUNCH! Three.
@rojo, my ancesters walked across the ice from Asia.
@Adagio,sea monster.
@ucme, she always uses so much bath oil, she is too slippery for anything to stick.
@Incoherency_ , yes.
@ragingloli, If you mean 9/11, a threat was issued, “Help us, or we ..”. GW didn’t take it seriously, so he knew it was comimg, but he didn’t beleve it.
@Jonesn4burgers Are you sure? It is much more likely that they came around on a coastal route. This could be done without having to wait for the ice to melt and land corridors to form inland. It would also explain the earlier sites in the Americas that are coming to light.
Gee, that is new for me. So someone greeted my ancesters when they got here? Maybe the human race started in more than one part of the world?
I want a clear shot of the Loch Ness Monster.
It would be interesting to watch them place the capstone on the largest Egyptian pyramid.
Watch the delivery and erection of the Sarsen stones at Stonehenge.
^^^ And the Easter Island giants!
I believe that most alien sightings are false due to visual evidence pointing to only one thing; said sightings evolving alongside man’s representation of aliens as years and cultures go by.
I would know the truth of this though. How the psychology behind aliens works.
D.B. Cooper. Somebody, somewhere knows his identity and whether he survived his parachute jump.
Back then, it was standard policy to comply with a hijacker’s demands and protect the airplane’s crew and passengers alive. Things have changed.
I can’t believe no one took Adam and Eve, if only to end the debate. Better yet, watch the first animal walk the Earth, 1,000,000 birds with 1 stone. Not a thriller, but think of the questions answered!
@ibstubro Let’s just take it to the origin of the universe then. I want to know how we came to be and what was “before” existence and time.
How about finding out what your parents saw in each other in the first place?
Or your own conception? Nah, don’t want to know.
@ibstubro
If you are going that route, I want to see Odin slay all the Frost Giants.
That must have been a sight.
WHAT IS THAT, ^^^ HOW DID IT GET HERE, AND WILL IT EVER RETURN TO ITS OWN KIND?
Awwwwww snap! I went there.
(sorry, @ragingloli, but ya really bring it on yuhseff.)
Actually, I wrote a response to this.
To the effect of, “You might learn more than you realize, @ragingloli, in that Odin might have had an ancestral basis in fact. An actual person that inspired the tale.
A new twist leads me to The Shroud of Turin. I doubt the true premise, but I can’t see art being that precise, either. Perhaps a recreation, with tint?
I think we can pretty safely assume we will never really know who Jack the Ripper was.
@rojo By the way, have you seen this? It’s not a solution, but apparently the mystery is even bigger.
@SavoirFaire Yes, thank you for the site, I was reading about this very thing last week maybe earlier this week, it all runs together. On the website I was viewing there were a couple of interesting items such as that the Cursus shown actually has two pathways/entrances through it, both of which point to Stonehenge, and they also discovered a pit/sinkhole that has been filled in that intrigues them because it is (I believe) in line with the heel stone.
I’m satisfied that Jack the Ripper has been identified, but I’ve never invested a lot of time in the case. It’s understandable that people who have spent a lot of time with jack are not satisfied. It’s too late in the game for a definitive answer that will allay all doubt, in my opinion.
Who was the person or group the Tempter bamboozled into thinking the “golden rule” came from men.
Aside from that, I would want to know what actually did land in Roswell, NM?
WTH happened to Elisa Lam?
Among the many mysterious elements of her case, is how did she place or who placed the heavy lid back over the opening to the water tank after she entered it?
I remember that, @Brian1946, although I’d not heard that much detail.
Thanks, and thanks for awakening one of my favorite questions.
You’re welcome, @ibstubro
I’m tempted to go to the Cecil Hotel to check out some of the aspects of her death for myself, especially that potentially creepy elevator.
There’s a man claiming to be a PI who might go or have been to the Cecil. I’m thinking about contacting him to see if he wouldn’t mind having a totally amateur partner.
@Mimishu1995
I think I read that her parents, or she and her parents, emigrated from China to Canada.
Was there something about her that seemed Vietnamese to you?
@Brian1946 well it’s just the word “Lam” in her last name. It could make a perfect Vietnamese-American name :D
I was hoping to see a Vietnamese in the spotlight :p
@ibstubro . . . yeah. the last spotlight she was in belonged to the first police officers on the scene.
OK, I have one more that has really been at me the last couple of days, did DB Cooper really get to spend the money, or did he end up wolf food in the forest?
What was Stantons involvement in the assassination of Lincoln and did he help see to it that Booth escaped and lived out the remainder of his life in relative obscurity?
Who were the perps of 9/11? Arab hijackers my ass.
