1
00:00:05,749 --> 00:00:02,659
a story that has been around for quite a

2
00:00:10,700 --> 00:00:05,759
while this is a story about a person

3
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:10,710
called the count of st. Germain a fairly

4
00:00:15,230 --> 00:00:12,330
interesting character there's a lot of

5
00:00:18,590 --> 00:00:15,240
claims about this person first of which

6
00:00:20,510 --> 00:00:18,600
is that this person was time-traveling

7
00:00:22,759 --> 00:00:20,520
vampire this is a time-traveling vampire

8
00:00:24,259 --> 00:00:22,769
story that's correct Joe though the

9
00:00:27,769 --> 00:00:24,269
first flame about the count of st.

10
00:00:29,990 --> 00:00:27,779
Germain is that he was the son of the

11
00:00:31,999 --> 00:00:30,000
Prince of Transylvania

12
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:32,009
oh that's over there in Europe

13
00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:37,110
Transylvania but in the in the 1740s he

14
00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:41,120
hung out with Harold woful Harold

15
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:43,680
Walpole the son of a British prime

16
00:00:51,950 --> 00:00:47,510
minister at the time and this guy

17
00:00:55,689 --> 00:00:51,960
reported that the count was not only

18
00:00:58,369 --> 00:00:55,699
extremely talented at playing violin and

19
00:01:01,490 --> 00:00:58,379
music composition but he was insanely

20
00:01:05,690 --> 00:01:01,500
mad and odd at the same time

21
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:05,700
uh the count was so out there in crazy

22
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:07,650
in his personality that he was arrested

23
00:01:13,910 --> 00:01:11,610
for spying but he was released pretty

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:13,920
soon after by the king if it was

25
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:16,410
verified he wasn't spied he then left

26
00:01:23,690 --> 00:01:19,170
for mainly in Europe after that so this

27
00:01:26,090 --> 00:01:23,700
guy was hopscotching and and in across

28
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:26,100
Europe with a bundle that her he said

29
00:01:30,469 --> 00:01:28,410
before Jets were even Jets yeah that's

30
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:30,479
right so you would say after after

31
00:01:35,570 --> 00:01:31,710
hanging out in England he went to

32
00:01:39,320 --> 00:01:35,580
mainland Europe and years later he was

33
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:39,330
found in Paris hanging out with Louis

34
00:01:45,730 --> 00:01:42,330
the 15th and was said to have gone on a

35
00:01:49,070 --> 00:01:45,740
lot of different secret missions or

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:49,080
Louis 15 they didn't really go it's not

37
00:01:55,070 --> 00:01:51,210
really any description of what those

38
00:01:57,170 --> 00:01:55,080
secret missions were but he was tasked

39
00:01:59,529 --> 00:01:57,180
with doing some interesting things and

40
00:02:03,380 --> 00:01:59,539
in the laboratory one of which was

41
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:03,390
dyeing fabrics so this guy was not only

42
00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:05,850
a a well well-versed in music

43
00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:10,080
composition but he is a chemist or at

44
00:02:14,570 --> 00:02:11,760
the time it probably be kind of

45
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:14,580
classified as an alchemist because it

46
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:17,730
was also rumored that this guy would

47
00:02:23,420 --> 00:02:20,910
just hand out diamonds to people that he

48
00:02:26,620 --> 00:02:23,430
liked be walking down the street you are

49
00:02:29,350 --> 00:02:26,630
pretty friendly with the count of the

50
00:02:31,670 --> 00:02:29,360
saint-germain boom you get a diamond

51
00:02:33,590 --> 00:02:31,680
come hang out with a count at the party

52
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:33,600
boom you get a diamond and it was

53
00:02:37,130 --> 00:02:35,130
alleged that this guy was just creating

54
00:02:40,230 --> 00:02:37,140
diamonds through his alchemy and just

55
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:40,240
turning regular rocks into diamonds

56
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:42,850
and there are rumors floating around

57
00:02:51,060 --> 00:02:47,050
that this guy was hundreds or thousands

58
00:02:57,540 --> 00:02:51,070
of years old and that he was present at

59
00:02:59,780 --> 00:02:57,550
the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD now if

60
00:03:04,590 --> 00:02:59,790
you know that the Council of Nikias it

61
00:03:07,740 --> 00:03:04,600
was the council that was was convened

62
00:03:11,210 --> 00:03:07,750
and assembled all the Christendom and

63
00:03:15,090 --> 00:03:11,220
resulted in a uniform Christian doctrine

64
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:15,100
all the the Nicene Nicene Creed

65
00:03:21,740 --> 00:03:16,770
so this there's rumors that this guy was

66
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:21,750
there in 325 AD at the council and then

67
00:03:26,699 --> 00:03:23,890
next thing you know he's appearing in

68
00:03:30,060 --> 00:03:26,709
the the 1400 is hanging out with kings

69
00:03:31,500 --> 00:03:30,070
and queens so after Paris he wound up

70
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:31,510
going to Russia for a little bit hanging

71
00:03:37,380 --> 00:03:33,570
out with Catholic grades I guess and

72
00:03:40,750 --> 00:03:37,390
then then in German after Germany yeah

73
00:03:45,369 --> 00:03:40,760
or in Germany he continued his lab work

74
00:03:46,270 --> 00:03:45,379
uh then supposedly in 1784 the count

75
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:46,280
passed away

76
00:03:51,819 --> 00:03:48,650
however there were sightings of the

77
00:03:54,190 --> 00:03:51,829
count throughout Europe in the 1800s so

78
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:54,200
this guy was kind of like Elvis you know

79
00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:57,290
he's dead in the late 1700s next thing

80
00:04:01,059 --> 00:03:58,250

and numerous as Elvis in modern day so

96
00:04:41,469 --> 00:04:38,510
after after his supposed death in 1784

97
00:04:45,850 --> 00:04:41,479
the next sightings took place in New

98
00:04:48,490 --> 00:04:45,860
Orleans in the early 1900s and in New

99
00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:48,500
Orleans he was known as Jacques st.

100
00:04:54,790 --> 00:04:51,710
Germaine he worked his way into high

101
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:54,800
society and hosted lavish parties he'd

102
00:04:58,779 --> 00:04:57,289
speak of historical events in great

103
00:05:00,730 --> 00:04:58,789
detail at these parties like he had just

104
00:05:05,890 --> 00:05:00,740
recount recount all these amazing

105
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:05,900
details of places and events that he

106
00:05:11,379 --> 00:05:08,210
attended throughout the entire history

107
00:05:13,990 --> 00:05:11,389
of you know modern day I guess ranging

108
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:14,000
from year 300 up until the nineteen

109
00:05:20,589 --> 00:05:18,289
hundreds at these at these parties that

110
00:05:23,020 --> 00:05:20,599
he threw he would never eat or drink

111
00:05:26,140 --> 00:05:23,030
even though he was offered you know

112
00:05:28,990 --> 00:05:26,150
bottles of wine or food possibly even

113
00:05:30,550 --> 00:05:29,000
crumpets he denied them all and one of

114
00:05:34,149 --> 00:05:30,560
these parties though the cops were

115
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:34,159
called because a woman fell from his

116
00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:36,650
belkin balcony it was determined later

117
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:39,830
though that the woman jumped in terror

118
00:05:48,029 --> 00:05:42,969
she did survive the fall

119
00:05:50,909 --> 00:05:48,039
and during the interview process she

120
00:05:54,629 --> 00:05:50,919
claimed that she had jumped from the

121
00:05:57,809 --> 00:05:54,639
balcony to escape saint-germain she also

122
00:06:02,900 --> 00:05:57,819
said that he had bitten her on her neck

123
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:02,910
during the attack so

124
00:06:07,610 --> 00:06:05,360
cops were like okay you claim that the

125
00:06:09,230 --> 00:06:07,620
this guy Jacques Germain this guy who's

126
00:06:10,190 --> 00:06:09,240
thrown all these highfalutin parties

127
00:06:11,780 --> 00:06:10,200
tried to bite you

128
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:11,790
we'll go talk to him so the cops talked

129
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:13,650
to him and they said why don't you just

130
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:15,450
come on down to the station tomorrow and

131
00:06:20,540 --> 00:06:17,850
we'll sort this whole entire thing out

132
00:06:23,150 --> 00:06:20,550
so the next day the cops were sitting

133
00:06:25,370 --> 00:06:23,160
around waiting for the Jacques st.

134
00:06:25,870 --> 00:06:25,380
Germaine to show up he didn't show up at

135
00:06:28,550 --> 00:06:25,880
all

136
00:06:32,690 --> 00:06:28,560
so the cops took it upon themselves to

137
00:06:36,220 --> 00:06:32,700
go back to the counts house and there

138
00:06:39,350 --> 00:06:36,230
they didn't find him he had disappeared

139
00:06:40,700 --> 00:06:39,360
a lot of his belongings were still there

140
00:06:45,260 --> 00:06:40,710
but he was nowhere to be found

141
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:45,270
they did find several open bottles of

142
00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:48,170
wine but the wine bottles were full but

143
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:50,880
when they tested the wine bottles they

144
00:06:57,010 --> 00:06:53,490
poured it out all the wine bottles were

145
00:06:59,860 --> 00:06:57,020
full of blood

146
00:07:02,670 --> 00:06:59,870
leading some people to conclude that

147
00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:02,680
this guy the count of st. Germain is

148
00:07:09,999 --> 00:07:06,110
either a time-traveling vampire just a

149
00:07:12,790 --> 00:07:10,009
long living vampire or this person is

150
00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:12,800
from a long line of just amazing

151
00:07:15,909 --> 00:07:14,479
storytellers in this key path this story

152
00:07:19,450 --> 00:07:15,919
on from one generation to the next to

153
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:19,460
kind of perpetuate this kind of myth the

154
00:07:27,490 --> 00:07:21,919
last sighting of this guy there was a

155
00:07:30,430 --> 00:07:27,500
guy in France in 1972 that claimed to be

156
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:30,440
the count of st. Germain this guy's name

157
00:07:36,850 --> 00:07:35,090
was Richard Chan free this guy was a

158
00:07:41,980 --> 00:07:36,860
handsome good-looking guy he dated a

159
00:07:46,689 --> 00:07:41,990
very notable singer at the time but he

160
00:07:49,330 --> 00:07:46,699
later committed suicide by a carbon

161
00:07:54,430 --> 00:07:49,340
monoxide from from a closed garage door

162
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:54,440
though he didn't he tried this guy in on

163
00:07:59,110 --> 00:07:56,810
French TV tried to prove prove that he

164
00:08:01,570 --> 00:07:59,120
was the the authentic the original count

165
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:01,580
of st. Germain by doing some alchemy by

166
00:08:07,270 --> 00:08:04,130
turning something into gold led into

167
00:08:09,219 --> 00:08:07,280
gold but he failed to do that though it

168
00:08:11,950 --> 00:08:09,229
didn't work he died from carbon monoxide

169
00:08:14,170 --> 00:08:11,960
poisoning his garage I know what's the

170
00:08:15,490 --> 00:08:14,180
bad kind of gas that you comes out of

171
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:15,500
the exhaust from monoxide yeah I just

172
00:08:19,420 --> 00:08:17,810
was was he not familiar with the rope

173
00:08:21,279 --> 00:08:19,430
you can pull down to open garage doors I

174
00:08:25,510 --> 00:08:21,289
don't think he that was before the road

175
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:25,520
cratchit that was free rope well we'll

176
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:27,050
send someone over there from the racing

team to put a rope on that door yes that

178
00:08:35,050 --> 00:08:32,469
was the the brief rundown of the

179
00:08:36,130 --> 00:08:35,060
so-called time-traveling vampire to

180
00:08:39,190 --> 00:08:36,140

00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:48,560
Nimoy back in the 70s in search of did a

186
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:51,529
whole big long our episode on the count

187
00:08:56,260 --> 00:08:54,410
of st. Germain and I think that I think

188
00:08:58,360 --> 00:08:56,270
there's some records of this guy a lot

189
00:09:00,940 --> 00:08:58,370
of is this kind of like myths and fairy

190
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:00,950
tales urban legends and I think it just

191
00:09:05,319 --> 00:09:03,110
kind of gets all woven together to

00:09:07,630 --> 00:09:05,329

193
00:09:09,150 --> 00:09:07,640
time-traveling vampire like Spartacus

194
00:09:10,950 --> 00:09:09,160

196
00:09:16,350 --> 00:09:12,850
different events in year 300 the Year

197
00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:16,360
1700 1950s who was the eyewitness who

198
00:09:26,190 --> 00:09:20,080
was spotting him at multiple events

199
00:09:27,810 --> 00:09:26,200
across 1,600 1,600 years who's that guy

200
00:09:29,940 --> 00:09:27,820
and why is he using for so much that's

201
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:29,950
the actual time-traveling vampire that's
