In response to the mother not being able to identify her child:
My brother died when I was thirteen and the hardest thing I went through was how quickly I forgot his appearance. Back then, they wouldn’t have pics on their iPhone to remember. You’d be amazed at how quickly the brain forgets. I often wonder if I were to walk past my brother on the street, would I recognize him? With all the grief and stress Mother Dunbar was going through, her memory could be affected

[leturna-m]

if the next season of ruining history doesn't talk about the french people dancing, i am going to RIOT

[Thesweetestpegasus]

“Pony or bike?”
“Neither”
*5 seconds later*
“God I want a horse”

hi on the notion of tatted babies: in croatia during the war children were getting separated from their parents by the italians and nazis and so parents literally tattooed their small children with very intriciate and specific patterns so that if they ever were separated because of the war, they would be able to find each other when they were older. If you look up traditional croatian tattoos you can see the style of pattern they used :)

I feel like Bruce was probably being abused at home- an uncle beating him, a mother not looking for him for forever, etc. He saw an escape from his hard life, and chose to be Bobby Dunbar.

[eacles-imperialis]

Every time I hear about the people in France who danced until they died I think where’s the episode

[Live_wire_]

Theory: Shane can actually see ghosts and has just been messing with Ryan this whole time

[waffles]

Who else loves when Shane realizes that the show just started? 0:06

[TheNeonCupcake]

Personally I believe that the woman was so beside herself with grief that when she was presented with a child that looks similar she latched onto the idea that this IS her child. Similar to how women who have a still birth become obsessed with caring for those like like baby dolls. They know it's not their baby but they will swear down that it is because the alternative is too much for them to handle.

[oliversolar]

okay but why haven't they made a video about the french dancing thing?

[bobbydunbar]

Hey it's me Bobby. I'm good, very old. Chime off bro.

[ceciliagomez]

As a mother I think with out photos to remind you of what they looked like and the fact that a 4 year old changes so much in a matter of months I think I would have a hard time knowing with out a doubt if a child was mine. Also children forget people even faster then an adults so I’m not surprised that the child wouldn’t recognize its mother.

I didn't realize how invested I was in the Hotdaga until Gene got shot and I wanted to cry.

[Myplaylistsofmusic]

The thing that I always look forward to in every postmortem episode is when Shane does the 😦 face at the beginning of the episode. Also in the supernatural series when he shakes his head in the main episode as Ryan asks “are ghosts real?” Lol

[dianapullen]

Funny story. My mom lost me in a department store and when she came to the security asking for me, they asked her “what does she look like” and my mom was like she has a giant scar on her forehead and blonde hair and the guy was like “I’m going to need more of a description than that” and my mom literally yelled “HOW MANY BLONDE KIDS WITH GIANT SCARS ON THEIR FOREHEADS DO YOU HAVE BACK THERE.” Let’s just say he delivered me back to my mother within seconds lol

5:58 to be fair, my 98 year old great grandmother watches unsolved

Shane:
‘What- we’re starting?’’ ‘Oh ok.’’ ‘What’s Ryan babbling about’’ ‘How did I get here’’

[FlapJacques]

When are we getting the BuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime: The Dancing French People episode?? That thing has been a running joke ever since the beginning of Shane's appearance

[tgyhjdfgh]

Shane at the beginning always makes my day :)

[moonydoll]

Not to be morbid or crude but back in those days people didn't really acknowledge pedophilia as we do today. Most people didn't consider it at all (unless someone was an outed homosexual, not saying homosexuals are pedophiles, just that homophobes choose to think that ). The fact that a non-relative was spending so much time with these children already puts me at unease, and the fact the he had an "affectionate" nickname for Bobby is even creepier. And for the other children that were with him, children are so susceptible they can pretty much be convinced of anything if you say it right or say it to them enough. The weird friend is the reason Bobby went missing IMO
