The Hamburger Lady - Creepy Deep Web Video Explained

The Hamburger Lady video is meant to have been pulled from the deep web some time ago and has had a lot of speculation over where it comes from.  If you are unsure on what the deep web is then this diagram should help make it clear.  There are layers to the internet at different accessibility levels.  The lower levels are the deep web and are not accessible on a normal browser.  These are the Tor networks and you need the Tor browser to find them.

I have seen people saying that it's a cursed video, one of those "if you watch it you will die in three days" things.  I have heard some say the story behind it was real and it was made by the orderly or the doctor or even the spirit of the Hamburger Lady herself.  

The story is about a woman in a hospital suffering from major burns all over her body.  The doctor has written a journal entry about her and the way her flesh looks like hamburger meat.  He speaks of taking turns caring for her in her suffering and how an orderly was sick all over the floor from dealing with her.

I have had a dig around and I found a few things out about this video.  It is creepy for sure, that we know, but what is the real story of it and was she a real person?  Click below to watch my explanation video and see the original video taken from the deep web.

Sitting and Smiling

A YouTube channel that does exactly what it says on the tin.  

Benjamin Bennet is a performance artist who has been performing sitting and smiling for a VERY long time.  He puts on his web cam, gets comfortable and then he sits and smiles and nothing more......for four hours.

The first video is dated July the 28th 2014 and to date there are 219 videos (at the time of writing this, with the last one being added three hours ago).

In that time he has had a couple of slight problems.  In one episode he forgot to go pee before starting and wets himself, but the really crazy one is early on.  Episode 5 has a special guest.  He is sat there doing his thing when someone breaks in to his house and opens the door behind him.  What does he do?  He sits and smiles.

UPDATE: I am currently sat here watching Sitting and Smiling on live steam #221  There is something even more unsettling about it when it's actually live.  Knowing he is sat there right now with that creepy smile and his eyes burning a hole in to my soul.

Weird Performance Art

I am not an expert on art by any stretch of the imagination but as the saying goes, I like what I like.  And it seems I like Olivier De Sagazan's Transfiguration.  While I know this blog is not about art, I can't help but share this because it really is quite something.

I have seen a video of this before being passed around Facebook and it did catch my attention.  It's a very strange performance involving clay, water, paint, hair and sticks.  There are a few videos out there of Olivier performing this but I personally find this one to be the best, much better than the one that was passed around.  It shows the full performance and is far more emotive than the others....it also gets much more strange.
