Hi friends happy Monday!
Hope you are all staying safe and healthy out there. Sorry I went a little MIA but I am happy to be back. Today I wanted to talk about Jim Jones and what was going on with his whole situation. This could easily be a 3 part series, there are so many more people and factors that came into play as well, but I wanted to keep it simple and focus on Jim and his life. Honestly, it would've gotten so confusing QUICK if I started throwing all these different names at you. Anywho, thank you guys so much for stopping by and hanging out with me. Hope you all have a wonderful rest of your day, Love and appreciate you guys so much!! I hope to be seeing you very soon

No one noticed he could perform “miracles” but couldn’t heal his wife?!?!
Apparently he did "heal" her. The doctor told her she would need a wheelchair after 40, but she died at 51 without the need for a chair. I think he claimed he prevented that from happening.
MrsP oh wow. Thanks for letting me know. 😊 But he still had to sleep with others cause he wife couldn’t. 🙄🤦🏻♀️ how convenient. This is so crazy.
I wish I could like this 2x. Lol. The funny part is how didn't he get anyone to heal in the crowd that he didn't know? That called him out on it...was like, I'm crippled, have cancer...etc...then he does nothing to heal them and they limp off stage... or die(not funny at all btw)...and ppl start to realize he was lying?! This is so bizarre...unless he always 'picked' ppl he knew...🤔
There's a docuseries on this and it explains that several of the people he "healed" were drugged and told this or that was wrong with them like a broken foot and he did his thing and boom they could walk but didn't know how they broke their bones
RIGHT!!!
As a black girl I can confirm: Black churches are so lively and everyone is always happy to be there. The shouting(form of dancing) and music or even the food that we have after it's all comforting. Really shows their passion for all they do and believe in. Proud of that
It's a brown people thing I guess haha a lot of Polynesian and native churches are similar
We just get it I guess
Just pentecostals in general
I went to Catholic Church growing up, it was like being at a funeral every Sunday 😴 so boring, so depressing lol
I go to a predominately white Christian university and got soooooo bored with everyone’s lackluster response to the reality of Christ and His teachings... joined a mainly black church and I am so sad for all of the ignorant whiteys that want to go to churches full of other white people that aren’t even excited to hear the best news they could ever hear.
Bailey isn’t lying about that last tape. I had to listen to some of it for a college course years ago, and it is truly devastating. You hear people screaming in pain, including CHILDREN and BABIES, and you hear mothers wailing because their children are dying. There’s one point where mothers are crying and begging to keep their children from taking the poison, and Jim Jones is telling them they have to let their children go. You don’t forget that tape once you hear it. Jim Jones is an absolute monster.
A little addition, where he says "mother, mother mother dont do that". He was stopping his wife marceline, who he made congregations mother as he was "father"... Marceline was saying to stop it... He was telling her to stop. And let her children die.
I was gonna go listen to it, but I don’t think I will now. Oh my gosh.
Oh my goodness. 😭
Listening to that tape broke something in my brain. I regret it.
@@MyLokelani08 its not great audio and you cant make alot of what is going on unless you know whats going on. But near the ending there are kids in the background saying they feel sick and that "it hurts" and stuff
Its very sad
At my previous job I worked with a woman who survived this nightmare. Her, her son, mom, sister, and her husband all lived in Jonestown. When Jim Jones was telling everyone they had to die, she fled in the rainforest with her baby on her back. Unfortunately, her family didn’t join her. She had to leave in secret because she knew it was her only way out. A tragedy.
PS she’s literally one of the sweetest, kindest people I know. Her name is Leslie and she actually wrote a book about her experience. It’s called Slavery of Faith by Leslie Wagner-Wilson
Thats Leslie Wagner Wilson!!!
i'm so glad leslie's okay! she sounds awesome!
@@2-d_in_a_bag in a documentary she said that she was gonna return to get her family but they all die tho 😞 including her husband who was a security guard
@@elizabethmarielunacordoba9956 that's really sad :(
@@2-d_in_a_bag look It Up its on CZcams the documentary Is from 2018
This is the definition of “they had us in the first half, I’m not gonna lie”

Seriously, The beginning he actually seemed half decent. He seemed off but he could had a normal life.
For fricken real...I wasn't sure if this was the same Jim Jones I had heard of at one point..whoa
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
At first I was like “this guys nice!” Then I was like “oh! 😀”
Right I was like awh I love this dude going against racism but now I’m like 😐 dude
No man that starts right off scamming people should be considered a nice man.
I didn’t drink kool aid for weeks when I first heard of this case.
Same 😂
Same
Jim Jones scares me like no other cult leader because his early message of equality is one I would have agreed with, and might have been tempted to follow. Other cults leave me wondering how these people got taken in by the leader, but with Jones, I know exactly how. I can see myself as one of his followers and it terrifies me.
Same! Normally I think at least ik I wouldn't have fallen into this cults trap but I can't say the same for this one.
Same it so sad to know that I would have probably been one
Instantly made me think of that meme "he had me in the first half, not gonna lie"
Some commentator on one of the docs I watched on this said something like, If Jim Jones would have been hit by a car on his way to California, he would have gone down in history as one of the pioneers in the fight for racial equality.
same..
Dying by poison is incredibly painful. That's why Jim (And the mistress) chose the gun.
if that's the case, how come he had the members choose the poison
@@KBroskii Because he’s a megalomaniac, a hypocrite, and a coward. He expected his followers to suffer, but he would always find an exception to the rule for himself. What a monster.
Wow
@@jasmynelliott fr
Jones was too chickenshit to drink his own poison.
Jonestown is one of the few stories that truly make my skin crawl. I know this might just be a theory, but can you imagine being an african american in the times of segregation and you hear of this wonder church that accepts everyone and truly cares for you? Can you imagine how many african americans viewed his church as a sanctuary? A safe haven? A place where they truly felt equal? This monster could've easily make some of my family his victims and it sickens me. I hope he rots for eternity.
That’s why anyone or any group that demands you agree or you’re the enemy is shady. It’s so important to REALLY know what a groups truly stands for and always question them! If they get mad when questioned it’s a red flag. Anybody that I’m going to represent I’m making sure I 100% know everything about them.
This is very true. Such a sad story. I remember when I first learned about this story as a child it stuck with me for a long time after that. When a new documentary would come out I would watch it and feel the exact same way as I did when I first learned about it.
I dont think thats a theory that was definitely the case
I live in an area where there are people whose family members and they themselves were a party of the Temple. It is so disturbing and sad.
lp
shes on trending every time she posts and still has the strength to sing the theme song, what a power move
Wow she really has grown in her channel
The theme song has to happen
The theme song is always my favorite part! 😂
I didnt really like it when I first started watching but its really grown on me haha 😅
Please don't ever stop singing your theme song. If you wanna change it up, maybe just add on backup singers and/or a music video...
Some of my aunts and uncles knew Jim Jones, went to school with him at Richmond High School. One of my uncles said Jim was a real nice guy and was shocked to hear the news. My Mom tells a story about how this little Black boy walked into a barbershop in Richmond to get his hair cut for his mother's funeral. The White barber refused and Jim Jones stood up for the child. He shamed the barber for refusing the boy service when he just wanted to be presentable for his mother's funeral. This tragedy is heartbreaking on so many levels.
I can’t doubt those stories at all, he’s a prime example of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
I believe that that very story about the barber was retold in the 1980 TV movie "Guyana Tragedy: The Story Of Jim Jones" (starring the great Powers Boothe, who won an Emmy for his breakthrough performance!). :-)
I love that you separate "black" and "African American" because its totally not the same thing. love it
well... people can be not American but just African but still be black, but in this case yeah.
genuine question, what's the difference?
@@defensiveninja3419 For us AAs, African American is our ethnicity and black is our race. Black woman from Nigeria is Nigerian and black, but is not African American because she is a not descendant of American slavery.
@@defensiveninja3419 like me being a black girl, but I'm from the Caribbean, so I'm not an african-american
@@SimLove1031 I wonder, though: If you were to get US citizenship, would you be considered African-American because of your African ancestry? This is a sincere question.
bailey honestly make me feel like i’m her best friend the way she talks in all her videos
she’s so sweet i love her
i think that mainly my fav part, it makes her videos more entertaining.
Scratching that parasocial itch
Agree
Yes!!!!!
Me looking at Bailey’s hair clips: Cosmo and Wanda ain’t slick
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
I dont get it?
@@kelly82485 Nickelodeon fairly odd parents
😭😭😭😭
Here in Jamaica we had a cult Pastor (Kevin Smith )who sacrificed his members etc I'd really love if you could do a story about it.
That story is sick too
Didn’t he died?
People dont always realize that when you are disabled you are sometimes stuck with an abusive partner. Basically you choose between staying in the relationship or being homeless.
And being homeless is a slow, painful death.
Or in a nursing home, especially back then when they weren't regulated as much back then. Very scary. I was able to choose the nursing home that I went to after I fractured my upper right humerus, yes that bone. The food was better than some places might have been. And I visited him every day to make sure he was taken care of properly, they did an excellent job with him and everyone else there. He was high maintenance, to put it lightly. Constantly calling the nurses or aides for help when I could easily do something for him.
@@grandcatsmama3421 tbh nursing home quality can vary A LOT.
If he can miracle heal people, why can't he heal his wifes back...did no one question that?
Yo that was my thought!😂
Some did realize it was bad (not most of them, but a few tried to leave, it was awful). This was a very interesting story. It was really, REALLY sad though..... 😐😐😐
In cults you’re taught not to question anything over time. For us on the outside looking in though it’s super obvious how nuts this all was.
She was only bedridden for a while and he did say that he prevented her from having to use a wheelchair.
Faith healers say when you are not healed it’s because you lack faith. It is your fault so people fake feeling better so no one question their faith.
funny story my grandparents visited jim jones’s church when he was in indianapolis and they claimed he was “a really charismatic fella” but decided not to join. thank goodness bc it quite literally could’ve ended my bloodline
I know a man whose parents were apart of his church, but they left when he went to south america. They went out to Arkansas and built a house in the mountains in Mena. He does work for people there, but won't take money for anything. People just put money in his account at a hardware store or they buy groceries for him and his family. He is actually a really sweet man. He never raises his voice, cusses, or anything like that. Only one of his kids was born in a hospital, and they are great kids. He doesn't really remember Jim, but he said he liked going to the church because sometimes his dad would let him have a coke after.
The scary part was that I see why a lot of people even MYSELF would’ve joined him bc he wanted equality for everyone and that’s what people needed in the 60’s so it’s scary how so many people were lead on by him and ended up dying when all they wanted was a safe place
if Jim had kept doing what he was doing in the first 25 minutes of the video he would have been the greatest ever he could've been such a philanthropist ,but nooo he had to be a crazy person and do all that crazy possessive homicidal maniac
Can you imagine if someone had assassinated him earlier on? He'd probably be hailed as a major civil rights icon. That's crazy. Wow.
You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain
Allyson Jones I believe that was the point she was making by mentioning him. ✨
And Osho!!!
@eneres diy how dare you! How dare you
Like abe lincoln.?
I was purposely skipping over this video because I knew that someone in my family was killed in the massacre. But last night my cousin made a post about my great grandfather who was killed in Jonestown because she learned new info about it so I figured I should watch. I called my mom and she still cries over it, she misses her grandpa. She’s still heartbroken because she had a close relationship with him and remembers spending so much time with him when she was younger. She told me before how her older sister was planning on going to Jonestown with him and his second wife but didn’t end up going. Thankfully she didn’t and she’s still alive today. It hurts to know that this is part of my history.
Over the last few days I’ve been speaking to more family members and getting more details of what things were like for Jim Jones’ followers. My mother says every night when they sat down for dinner there was a photo of Jones hanging there near the dinner table. They also hung a photo of him over their bedroom doorway. When they would arrive at/depart from the church my mother and her siblings (children at the time) would have to cover their eyes while their grandpa walked them into the church or into the car. They had to do this because people would be protesting and holding signs that their grandpa didn’t want them to read. The protesters would shout that there was a witch in the church. It’s so sad that my great grandfather was so convinced. He sold several properties that he owned and gave it all for Jim Jones and to move to Jonestown.
Oml
Love to you and your family ❤️❤️❤️
ForJoy TV thank you for sharing, he had that charm unfortunately that of a very sick person.
Wow! I'm so sorry for the loss of your family member! Hugs!
Actually, Bailey, if you haven't already, this would make for a brilliant "Dark History" video if you haven't already. It is MACABRE. On the morning of the 19th, Guyanese foot soldiers went to the compound and it was dead quiet. The whole ground was apparently covered in a veil of fog. They described the ground feeling damp and marshy. But that silence was shattered when a younger teenage foot soldier actually saw what he was walking on. He apparently screamed and screamed, went into hysterics. All he could say was "BODIES! ITS ALL BODIES! EVERYWHERE". I hope that man is okay.
I love how the church members weren't allowed romantic relationships but Jim could have mistresses. Seems right.
Jim Jones as a child wearing his Sunday clothes to school when his parents consistently ignore him reminds me of that video of Michael Scott as a kid where he says "I want to get married and have 100 kids so I can have 100 friends and no one can say 'no' to being my friend." which is pretty much a cult if u think abt it
thats so sad :o
Please don’t compare Micheal to this man.
Also, Phyllis said Michael wore either suits or ties every day when they were in school. My brain went to the same place, but that’s the part I thought about.
You guys are my people 😂
MICHAEL SCOTT WOULD NEVER
I’m confused as to why the followers didn’t notice he couldn’t heal his wife’s back???
Maybe they didnt know?? O.o but yeah thats hella weird
Alia Y. He told the whole church about his affair and why, so surely they caught on to that ahaha
Duuuuuuuuuuuuude😳 I didn’t even think about that!
@@Mformaddii okay trruueee I forgot about that hahahah 😂😂😂😂
Probably his her problems and smooth talked everyone.
It's a shame he could not use his skills in unity to help humanity instead of destroying others.
As an Ex Jehovah's Witnesses, I'm so thankful for people like Bailey who are willing to share cult stories as it brings awareness to the very real dangers that they pose. Please stay safe everyone
My dad was in the airforce during this time and he was sent out to Jonestown. His war skill was mortuary so he had to bag and tag all the bodies there. He said that he didn't handle Jim's body, although his buddy did. He recounted his experience to me and said how they were alerted to get on a plane and had no idea what was going on or where they were going. They then landed in Panama and were notified at that point exactly what was happening and where they were going. They went from there to Jonestown. He told me about all he saw there, and it was horrifying. He said often bodies were falling apart since they were exposed for some time to the elements. Mothers holding their children that still had the liquid in their bottles. He has ptsd from his experience there and said he still has nightmares many nights about it. I only just learned about all this from him recently about him going there and it was so wild to me listening to him talk about it even though I'd already known a lot about Jonestown.
that’s wildddd
Jada Jones super wild! I was just in awe when finding out and listening to him speak about it. I know it isn't easy for him to talk about which is probably why I'm only just finding out at 30 years old.
Thank you for sharing this. I’m sorry for your father. How horrific.
Wow!!😳 that would be insane to see!! They said you could smell the bodies in the helicopter before they landed...very tragic...those poor kids 😢
Jesus effing christ that is horrific. I can't imagine being one of the people trapped in this death cult or being one of the people to sort through the aftermath. An absolute living nightmare
Does anyone else still randomly hear her saying “aqua tofona” in their heads?
We missed you Bailey!
Yes! The other day I saw a commercial for Aqua di Parma and I immediately heard “aqua tofona” 😂
Just today my friend was talking about how 2 of his grandma's husband's died and I was like "aqua tofona*
I will literally say it randomly out of nowhere.
@@CMace33 you get me
We were at Total Wine when I saw this tequila bottle, I walked over to it, tossed my hair back, looked my hubs dead in the eyes and said "Aqua Tofona" he looked at me like I was crazy
i personally believe his whole social justice and desegregation act was all a ruse to get aa’s on his side. he preyed on the unfortunate so that they could join his cult. truly evil.
Yep, exactly.
Yeah. He studied H!tl3r as a youth and said the awful salute words of his as a kid.
yes.
@@synkronized Really? I haven't heard that but I would not be surprised. He would like anyone who reached any sort of notoriety.
Yes!
R.I.P to those 409 people who were never identifies, and obviously to the others as well.
That number just sits with me. Like it's so high, and we'll never know who they are, what if they had families out there and they never know what happened to their loved ones.
When she started talking about black churches I started nodding my head cause we go crazy during praise and worship 😂💃🏾🕺🏾
Loool it ain't no joke!
That's how you manifest though.
🤣🤣 go awfff
I NEVER wanted to go to church in my life until I moved nextdoor to a black church
White Church of England churches are SAD. No ENERGY and I remember when the black church visited it was POPPING! Drums, instruments, and "Praise get lord" and hands up in the air 😂
Ngl he had us in the first half with the equality but then you know
He could’ve been so great if he would’ve just stopped while he was ahead.
I've grown up my whole life hearing about Jonestown. and yet... this feels like the first time I'm getting the real story. Thank you, Bailey!
Fun little fact: I live in Indiana, and Marceline Jones (Jim’s wife) is buried across from my grandparents. And rumor has it that they buried Jim right next to her in an unmarked plot. So while my town is pretty boring, it definitely has some skeletons in its closet 😜
I’m in Indiana. Where are you talkin 👀
I'm in Indiana where about is this 👀
I missed you too Bailey! At this point I feel like we are friends and she's telling me the neighbor's chisme 🤣
lol I love this type of bochinche though 😂👌🏼
Right?!?!

so accurate!!
"She has an opinion! Stay clear!"
Gonna need that on a tee shirt.
Yes!
I’d buy it in a heartbeat!
This is the only comment she "loved" ♥
Thank i
Literally I’d buy it
Now I know why no one talks about the 60s. They had Jim Jones AND Charles Manson. That explains so much. This is really sad and it makes me cry. Rip to the victims and I pray for the ones who were able to escape this nightmare 😞😭
white men in the 60s….. yikes
I've listened to these tapes in the past. Bailey is right. You hear babies and children crying and screaming and dying on the tapes. I'm big on true crime not much phases me. I had to turn it off. I couldn't take it anymore. I can't listen to toddlers screaming in fear watching people die knowing they're next. No thanks. I pray all these people especially the little ones are resting peacefully and live on as angels.
As Creed from The Office once said “ I’ve been in a number of cults. Both as a leader and as a follower. You make more money as a leader. But you have more fun as a follower”
why am I not surprised that someone referenced Creed 😂
Takirah Haye knew it would come out too 😂
I LOVE CREED😭😭😭💖
Omgosh you’re one of my people! Lol. I wonder what Dwight would have thought about Jim Jones? Lol
Bailey: i missed you
Me: 😳🧚🏻✨🥰💫 serotonin
Same

So a little over a year ago, my husband was listening to one of your “ stories “ and I was in the other room , doing some crafting project,(I’m not much of a tv watcher), and when he turned it off to do something else, I said “ hey!!! I was listening to that!” He laughed and turned it back on so I could hear the ending. He told me who you were, and I’ve been hooked ever since!! Bailey, you don’t know it, but sometimes your the only company I have ( I’m in the back woods of Alaska off grid other than my phone) and your my “crafting “ partner . Ohhh girl the art we create!! 😂😂
The tapes are horrifying. Just to hear the babies screaming, makes it the worst recording I’ve ever heard
The candles in the back looks like a vampire's room and I'm living for it
Nosferatu? More like yasferatu
I miss the 🌙 though. Loved the 🕯 and 🌙 together.
Bailey coming back after 2 weeks acting like she didn’t get dubbed the queen of the beauty community
Nicole McKenzie she’ll always be my unproblematic queen
If someone even TRIES to take her down I am going to *riot* in behalf of the Temple of Sarian
RIGHT
When your at work and Bailey uploads...you take your break to watch.
SO UNPROBLEMATIC 😩😍🙌🏽
My mom met him in her early 20's. She had moved to San Francisco, and he approached her talking about "Sister I started a church, you should come" blah blah blah. She said she took one look at him in those big glasses and thought....something is off.
Absolutely INSANE I’d never heard this story. This is why doing popular stories are worth it! Some of us live under a rock 😅
I've heard people use the phrase "they drank the Kool Aid. Now I know what it means.
Bailey: “I love cults”
Also Bailey: 😳realizes what she said😅😅😅
🤣🤣💕😅
I’m gonna keep commenting this in hopes that you will see it! If you ever need a story then I highly recommend doing anne Hamilton with the cult called the family. It was located in Victoria Australia, it is honestly one our most chilling stories and something I don’t think anyone will forget in Australia, unfortunately my dad was one of the children brought up in the cult and the story is both tragic and fascinating
isn't that the one that julian assange supposedly grew up in???
Bump
I saw she has a google doc that you add stories to! I bet you'll have more luck of her seeing it there. I don't remember where you can find it though....🤦♀️
@Bailey Sarian
Katie Rooney they have a documentary called the family that talks about what happen and talks with the survivors, my grandmother talks in it 😖
Thank you Bailey. I didn't know you did this 2 years ago. I was a little girl in Guyana 🇬🇾 when this happened. It was very traumatic for everyone. We still don't like drinking purple cool aid.
I remember seeing the photos and was horrified.
If anyone is interested in this kind of stuff, I would look into Stories from Jonestown. It focuses more on the members of the Temple (who honestly were victims in this case) instead of Jim Jones himself, and was written by one of the members of the Tectonic Theatre Project (who was behind The Laramie Project). There’s an opinion Times article that I think is worth a read: “The Story of Jonestown is more than Jim Jones.”
I’m glad you gave context to the entire situation that explains what happened up to the event.
this is trippy.. my aunt tried to join the cult when she was a teen and my grandpa wouldn’t let her 👀
Thank goodness
Oops I thought you said your mom...you said your aunt...lol...my bad..but anyways the outcome still would have been bad
Woah what happened!? I need details 😂
WTG Grandpa
My great-grandmother wanted to join too and even went to a few meetings.
Fun fact: the mayor of Dixon, CA (where I am located) is named Thom Bogue and he’s a survivor of Jonestown. 💕
Wow. I live in Sac and I didn’t know that.
Woah that's crazy
Whoa! That’s crazy town! Like Jonestown!
I just moved to Yuba City Area & did not know that! Thank you!
Woaaah!
My grandma was in this cult when she was young. She was one of the few that couldn't go on the trip because of money.
Bailey tells it better than anyone , even if you’ve heard a story a million times . She is like a best friend spilling the tea girl !
Right!?!? AND while doing AMAZING makeup!!! I can’t just do my make up period. Lol
Facts! She’s amazing
Yesss
This is why I like watching/listening to her. ❤️
My uncle who was in the army at the time had to clean up the body's after this happened. He said that they could only stay and clean up for 20 minutes at a time because the crime scene smelled so bad. I won't go into detail but the clean up for this tragedy was horrific and very sad. He has been to war before but he said this was the worst things he has ever seen. RIP to all the victims of this sick man.
I read a book that was by one of the rescue team that talked about the smell having a strong scent of almonds (like almond flavoring used in baking) because of the crazy amount of cyanide that was used, that later on down the road, he couldn’t walk by bakeries without the smell reminding him of cleaning up those bodies.
💖My gratitude for your uncles service and thanks for helping clean & getting... Ppl back to their families so they can rest in peace. 💖
Oh I'm so sorry he had to go through that.
That's horrifying! My uncle worked with a man who was part of the People's Temple and died in Guyana.
@@lindsayhowlett6737 do you remember what the book was called? That’s so sad :(
This gave me chills because we’re seeing Jim Jones-like false teachers in the modern church today. I hope people don’t generalize Christianity based on the first part of this story.
There is really nothing to generalize. Jones--even in his younger years-was a self professed Atheist and Marxist who very cynically and opportunistically used a "religious" platform to prey upon people like the insidious vulture that he was. The idea that Jones 'started out' a Christian, then transformed into a secularist, is just pure fantasy. I have a stack of documents obtained via a FOIA request, as well as a number of books on this subject, and honestly, I don't believe he had any real core beliefs or convictions whatsoever; a megalomaniac and sociopath if there ever was one... And very likely working in the service of others who were as bad as he was.
I love the way this woman tells stories. I can really visualize what’s going on. You are awesome Bailey
You should talk about the Cleveland Ohio abductions... the girls were held for 10 years!!
YES! Thissss. I just dm’d her on Instagram about this!!!
Yes i have read lots about this story.
Yesss!!
Or all the girls are going missing lately.. could be connected to Wayfair 🙄
yesssss I was definitely going to ask, but I didn’t know if it was too popular
My dads grandmother was one of the followers who went with them to Guyana. I remember watching a documentary about it when I was a kid and my dad spoke up about it. He said he remembers going to the church as a kid in California & seeing the “miracle” sermons Jim would have. He said that the govt brought back the majority of the bodies but his grandmother’s body was never identified, so there’s no telling if she was left back there or brought back here. He got very teary eyed speaking about it and said he didn’t like talking about it...
Awe. Sad. ☹️
You can speak to the fbi and have them help "close" her case and see/pick out her pic of who was brought back so she can have a gravestone. ❤️
Prayers 🙏
That's so sad. 🥺
How terribly sad....gosh
For those who are curious about the tapes; unless you are desensitised to human suffering, neurodivergent where you are capable of closing off emotions entirely/don’t completely understand emotions, or can disassociate, don’t listen to them. With my neurodivergency the suffering in the tapes doesn’t affect me, but it would affect a neurotypical individual whom is capable of understanding emotions. Dunno how else to explain it, but basically I can’t feel that emotional response, but these tapes can bring out strong emotional responses from neurotypical individuals.
The tape has a lot of children screaming/crying/pleading, parents actively telling their children, whom are dying, to be quiet. You can hear struggling, a hysterical woman and Jim telling women to control their children and to silence them, whom again, are literally dying and in pain.
The tape starts to get really quiet towards the end, and at the end of the 44ish minute tape there’s silence, no crying, no screaming, no talking, all you can hear is the music Jim had been playing in the background the entire time (edit; I have been told the music was what Jim recorded over, so the distorted music comes from that). So you’ve been warned; if you are emotionally healthy then save yourself from listening to the tape, especially parents, folk have told me as parents this pains them and hurts their hearts, so this will be an incredibly difficult listen. I’m “lucky” to be neurodivergent and don’t really understand emotions at the best of times and am completely desensitised/can disassociate (I’ve cPTSD along with being neurodivergent) but the tape is still extremely creepy to listen to.
Edit: never once stated all neurotypicals (NDs) are incapable of feeling emotions, I specifically stated that I, myself, as an individual, have a complete lack of proper understanding of emotions, am desensitised and can disassociate entirely from what emotions I somewhat understand. All NDs are different from one another, so please stop assuming I claimed we are all the same with regards to emotional responses. Thank you.
Being neurodivergent doesn't mean incapable of feeling or understanding emotions, folks! 🙄
@@AmazonElf most neurodivergent people find it difficult to react, manage, and recognize strong emotions. such as fear. im assuming thats why they brought it up.
cin♡ Neurodivergent people are also not mindless robots, either. I'm neurodivergent as are two of my kids and some other relatives. We have no issues with our feelings or those of others. I don't know. Maybe we're just oddballs there.
@@AmazonElf i cant really speak for her but i’m pretty sure nuerodivergency is different for everyone.
As a mother, just reading your description has made me uneasy and furious, my heart hurts. I could never watch the tape
It’s the glasses and imitation for me.😂😂 I LOVE BAILEY! She has a way with making us feel as though we are sitting right in front of her.
yo, my main thought during this was why the church members didn't question why he didn't perform a "miracle" and heal his wife's back pain 🤐😅
The inner circle knew the 'miracles' were only a marketing ploy :(
He wasn't finna disentangle himself from his younger entanglement
Exactly!!!!!
I thought the same thing!
I cackled
His anti segregation techniques were actually genius. If he would have made that his life goal, he would have been heroic instead of dastardly. Le sigh.
I know, he could’ve started something so beautiful, but was overcome by the very things he preached against. So sad.
he used black ppl from the very beginning. he didn’t really care about them.
@@cheri618 ok but did anyone force them to follow him? it's a cult, of course followers are used like in every case but on another hand, they choose to follow and this is the trick with cults, it's people's choice.
@@hyu6624 and the fact that he literally openly admitted to cheat his wife and everyone was like ok great and keeps following him to corners of the world...humans are so weird sometimes...
@@cit7rus855 rather than weird, they were brainwashed by that maniac
🇬🇾As a Guyanese growing up I've always been too scared to ask about the Jim Jones story .like half of the people were hush hush about the situation and the other half tell the story with such details that I use to feel scared about eating and drinking from random people. Thank you Bailey for this it was well put together.
My great grandma tried to convince my grandpa to go be healed by Jim Jones (for his paralysis) which is like a big bizarre thing in my family now
It might just be me, but I don't ever get upset at Bailey when she doesn't upload. I'm just so grateful that she makes these videos and makes Mondays better.
Same im just happy she still uploads. Its great that Bailey can take a couple of weeks off for her time. It makes for better videos. She's refreshed and happy to upload.
Right I just missed her so much 🤣
I'm really happy she is still able to live her life and just be awesome in Mondays! ❤️
Agreed! But she's missed when she's gone for sure. But Queen is making them life moves!!!
Hear, Hear! Here Here? Hear Here? I never did figure out which way that want. Anyways.. Yes! Her energy was great, seemed more relaxed even tho Jim Jones was a freakin creep.
I’m from Guyana 🇬🇾, and let’s just say we don’t trust eating from anyone because of this man, his story is past down from generations to generations
My mom is from Guyana that story still makes her cry...
@@gamerluxetv6920 as a fellow guyanese that was the worst time in Guyana history very very terrible I am glad that he is dead but I am sorry for my lost people
Wait really? What's the most popular story about it?
I’m from Guyana and this story still haunts everyone here ☹️
I was just speaking on this. That entire story was and still is a nightmare. It made me cry.
besides the fact that jim was a literal cult leader his early days made him sound like a great person and i can see why he gained such a following
Don't listen to the tape. You hear children crying in pain for being poisoned. It's brutal.
Please Bailey please add a beanie to your merch saying "Heavy on my noggin" 😱 ps you're amazing girl! aqua tofana will never be forgotten 😄
Aquaaatofanaaaaaa 😭
Yess I would buy one in every color! ESP if it’s cheetah print
i want a dad hat with it!!
LOVE this! hope she sees it😭
Evelynn A YAAAAAS
he not lying about black churches we be having a whole party
I remember saying the same thing to my mom when I was younger on why if rather go to a black church
Meanwhile, the mostly white churches my family used to drag me to sang just the most boring hymns.
I defintely say that everyone should go to a black church at leat once in there lives for the experience. I think it can dednitely change your take on how churches usually are
True
I'm not religious in the absolute slightest, and I didn't go to church with my parents but I went to church with like, everyone else's families lol. So because of that I've been to every kind of service you can think of and I always had a blast at the black churches. It definitely made things a lot more interesting.
Where's Bailey and her personality been all my life? She makes me laugh from the gut all the time! Love you girl!
Lol in 6th grade a substitute teacher played the DVD the teacher left on her desk for social studies class. Turns out, the librarian dropped the wrong video off and we watched a documentary on Jonestown… the principal had to send out a class wide apology email cause we went
home and told our parents how scarred we were lol… we were supposed to learn about the presidents 😅
Saw this on trending and I had no idea make up and mystery was a thing. Two of my favorite things in one 🥰 definitely subscribing
Welcome to the family hope you stay 💛
Welcome to the family❤❤❤we dont bite lol
Welcome! I would suggest following her on Twitter and snap so you get more updates ❤ we love Bailey
@Jesus Gonzalez sweetie Haters like you mean Bailey is doing something right. Thank you next 😂
@Jesus Gonzalez aw she hurt your feelings by being herself anyways move around and keep hating cause she getting that coin
When BAILEY put those big glasses on and did the Jim Jones impersonation. I died.
SAME!! 😂😂 I was looking for this comment
Me too!!
Same! She’s so funny 🤣
Anybody know where to get glasses like that
DIED!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
At first I felt so conflicted because he seemed like a great person, I knew that he wasnt going to be because Bailey was making a video on him. But like, not being racist, creating a church where both black and white people could come and preach their religion. Making companies accept black customers, helping teenagers get to college for free with free housing and free food. Even the stores that helped out the community get clothes that they may need while helping the other people in the community get rid of some unwanted objects or clothing in their homes. Everything else, horrible, but those things made me think that he wasnt so bad at first.
You know, the scary part of this story is how easy it would be to fall for his charisma and charm. On the outside he looked like a genuinely decent person. Maybe he started that way. Maybe he was always screwy. But no matter what it makes me feel uneasy.
“ & so are 19 year olds ayeee up top “ 🤣 i literally can’t even
I hollered so loud 😂😂😂😂
this made me cry laugh hahaha
The sunglasses just made it!
@@cassandrasipes5453 honestly she’s so funny 🤣
@@jordandavis5231 that's what I did!! Scared the cat....
My grandfather went to school with Jim Jones. Not like high school, but a theology type of school as an early 20 something. He said that the best way to describe Jim Jones, was CHARISMA!! He said that there was always a group of people around him, listening to his theories & ideas. He said that when Jim spoke to you, it felt like you were the only & most important person on earth. He said Jim was able to manipulate & maneuver any situation to his own desire. My grandfather said Jim scared him, alot. When the church was in the process of moving to Jonestown, Jim got in touch with my grandfather & invited my family to join them. He said that it would only cost $25k per member of the family to join them in "paradise." I'm really glad that my grandfather passed on that invite. But it is cool that my family has such a creepy connection. Ok... that's my claim to fame. Thanks for this video! It was awesome!
can't imagine how your grandfather felt when he heard what happened. dodged a bullet there
I live in Guyana, and my father told me when it happened he was at the airport that day and they were piles of bodies coming on the airstrip from planes. The area known as Jonestown is now just abandoned bush lands.
I would love to hear Bailey talk about the Waco Siege.
It’s almost like his interest in religion was his way of rebelling from his mom who didn’t seem fond of organized religions
My thought too. And perhaps an attempt to get her attention?
yes and also he used it to control people
I think it was more of the attention from people he never had from his parents
I believe it was more for attention than rebellion
"Oh, you don't like religion mom? Hold my beer."
I am a guy who has no interest in makeup at all but the combination of the interesting true crime story and the surprisingly relaxing makeup applying made me thoroughly enjoy this video. Thank you!
Right
exactly i am a girl with no interest in makeup but she makes me love makeup with the mix of something i love...true crime
Welcome!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how you can make terrible events come to life with the way you tell the story. At the same time you put your own spin on it and in a sense make light of it, respectfully of course, but you just make the topic not as heavy. You rock Bailey!! BTW love your imitation of peoples voices LOL. Cracks me up! 😂 Never a dull moment while watching your videos! 🤩🖤✨🕯️🧐🙌
Wow! That was one of the most comprehensive videos on Jim Jones I have ever watched! I have watched every documentary I can find about him over the years and over time they all sound the same you did an amazing job on this and for the first time in a long time I learned new information about him. Your research was so thorough. Thank you so much for this video, I’d love it if you would make a part 2!
My mom’s friend grandmother almost went there. She said a lot of people especially Black people wanted to go there because they wanted to get away from segregation. She was really young at the time 17 almost 18 years old. She told me she still gets nightmares of how close she almost came to going there.
wow... that’s so crazy to think about how our grandparents/great grandparents could’ve been apart or even around these kinds of things
Those hair clips...COSMO AND WANDA AINT SLICK
😂😂😂 love this!!
I’m crying 😂😂😂
best comment ever
kdksbwnshjsjshs
I always think of ice cream bars 😂
Caught a glimpse of your pup. He is so adorable. Need to have him in more videos.
I remember seeing images of everyone who died in the town. Not that long ago I had to watch a documentary about it, such a sad story.
I’m currently in labor watching this 😂❤️
Congrats 🎉
Congrats!!!
Congrats ♡♡
Name him/her Jim/Jimmy
mk jimifer for a girl lol
Is anyone else just so so SO proud of Bailey every time they see her number of subscribers??? It keeps going up!!! Before you know it, she's gonna hit 2 million!!!!
YES! So happy she's getting that recognition she deserves
Dang, she’s gaining subscribers so quickly. She’s barely uploaded this past month and she’s gained over 600,000 subscribers! I hope she doesn’t change though. It’s crazy the mentality you have when you start gaining followers and you start making content to appease your followers and eventually you’re not being yourself anymore.
@@ayannahhicks3337 yes! i would literally cry when that happens, ive been supporting her for so long
dehemmi she so deserves it ,she is amazing 😉
right! i remember when i found her i was like "well she about to blow up" and she is ❤
The fact that CA offered up space for mass grave for the unidentified deceased brought me to tears.
Absolutely heartbreaking 💔 My love and prayers go out to all the victims and their families left behind.
I think this is the first episode ever where
“ **laughs** sorry, it’s not funny”
didn’t occur.
LMFAOOABSJSHS BYE.😭😭😭
you're right! 🤭
Oh this episode is GREAT!!!! I LAUGHED SO HARD I ALMOST PEED🤣 Can I get an amen lol Bailey thanks for making ppl laugh and smile.
Grace Gadow I know. I miss that
I wish it did.. Still makes me laugh! *~*
I could love Jim with his idea of welcoming everyone in the church, but . . . . He made a cult. Why Jim? Why?
he ended up using equality as a manipulation tactic....so sad...
The crazy thing it was actually making sense until he started in with the craziness. The equality idea was great but the manipulation smh 🤦♂️
Lol I know he went crazy
See my husband and I were thinking the same thing when she was talking about how he wanted churches to be diverse and centered on equality for all. We couldn't help but wonder what went wrong. Clearly it was ego and money but I mean... it all started out making sense yknow?
Because he was a control freak
I just love Bailey. She's the highlight of my monday
I suffer from panic attacks and left alone at home triggers it more, but when I listen to your voice it helps me sleep and calms me like you are with me as a best friend.
You are a real genuine sweetheart! Luv you sooo much! 💜💜💜💜
