Peculiar little synchronicity there. My wife and I were talking about this at lunch yesterday, oddly enough. French Revolution, the guillotine is in vogue. One second you're intact and the next you're severed head's in a basket. I say that the brain should have considerable awareness at least for a minute or two. Jean-Claude's still in there even is he's .... indisposed .......

Back in 1925, a diphtheria epidemic struck Nome, Alaska and there was no antitoxin left in and around the village. Land, air, and sea routes were unavailable, so 20 mushers and 150 sled dogs relayed the serum across 674 miles in 5 1/2 days, in subzero temperatures, near-blizzard conditions and hurricane-force winds.

In England you sometimes see these "wavy" brick fences. And curious as it may seem, this shape uses FEWER bricks than a straight wall. A straight wall needs at least two layers of bricks to make is sturdy, but the wavy wall is fine thanks to the arch support provided by the waves.

According to legend, ‘Die Glocke’ was reportedly one German “wunderwaffe” (“wonder weapon”).
Farrell says that the device was considered so important to the Nazis that they killed 60 scientists that worked on the project and buried them in a mass grave (watch video below).
In his book, Hitler's Suppressed and Still-Secret Weapons, Science and Technology (2007), Stevens states that ‘Die Glocke’ contained red mercury and describes stories alleging that a concave mirror on top of the device provided the ability to see "images from the past" during its operation.
Witkowski stated that ‘Die Glocke’ ended up in a "Nazi friendly South American country". Cook, on the other hand, states that it was moved to the United States as part of a deal made with SS General Hans Kammler. Farrell stated that it was recovered as part of the Kecksburg UFO incident. Who knows, but definitely interesting.
Is it possible that the notorious SS colonel Hans Kammler traded ‘Die Glocke’ to the U.S. military in exchange for his freedom? (Kammler disappeared in the closing days of World War II and was never seen again.) While the Allies sent back home a trove of German superweapons during Project Paperclip, including jets and missiles, there’s no record of ‘Die Glocke’ anywhere.
What happened to this secret Nazi project? Did it actually even exist? Was Hitler on the verge of using the Nazi Bell to change history forever, and if so, where is it now? Learn more in the video below:
