Am I the only one who thinks that easter island statues having torsos underground adds to the mystery more than it solves it?

*skip 15 seconds*
Ok, there we go.

[ARIXANDRE]

I'm seeing a "mysteries" trend in Watchmojo and I'm loving it.

How do reefs in Bermuda Triangle explain disappearing planes?

[MegCazalet]

“Anna Anderson” was identified almost immediately and even met with her family in Berlin. She was a Polish woman named Franziska Schanzkowsza. She was mainly lucky, she even had the same physical abnormalities as Anastasia, but was also an incredibly good liar, very observant, had great memory, and people *really really wanted* her to be Anastasia. I highly recommend the book Resurrection of the Romanovs by King and Wilson.

It's not just a Sailing Stone! *hugs* It's a rock! A A

Planes disappearing over oceans has never been mysterious to me. I think a lot of people underestimate how wide and deep the ocean is.

The Easter island heads, that doesn't look like a torso. Some guy just said bury them deep so they won't fall over.

Now i'd love to see a top 10 unsolved mysteries!

The face on Mars wasn't solved, it was explained away to stop people from panicking.

[pawnhearts]

Watchmojo: After all this time this case has been closed
Snape: Always

[jackosteve]

That song n the beginning destroyed my ear's -_-

[steelersgoingfor]

The Eastern Island Heads..bodies just made it more mysterious right?

[THFLCNx]

But the Dyatlov Pass mystery still lives on!

[burnedrat]

Okay, that's how the Egyptians moved the blocks to the build site. But, how did they build the pyramids?

[jimb.]

*#1 - The mystery of why my dad went to the grocery store to get a gallon of milk and never came back.* ☹

[jmcc]

That is not an explanation for the construction of the pyramids ... You are saying just how they could have moved the stones ...

[iissac]

Did you guys read one article on each topic? Seems like it lol

[galesito]

"hey, if you're a fan of the song that's playing right now..."

I'm not, mainly because I'm not tone deaf.
