    My grandmother was in the blitz, she had her bike stolen and it was brought back by vigilante civilians. Apparently there was groups of people who hid their identity and patrolled the streets at night stopping crime. They would dish out beatings too. I think of them as the "Blitz Avengers". Pretty cool thing to do.

    Actually there was a pretty similar case in Germany at the same time. Paul Ogorzow, also know as the "Berlin S-Bahn Killer".
    This was a railway serviceman, who used the nightly blackouts to attack, rape an kill women on the nighttrains. He was found guilty for 31 rapings, 8 murders and equally attemted murders between 1939 and 1941.

    Over such a short period of time, he would actually be a spree-killer, rather than a serial killer. Serial killers claim three or more victims over a period longer than a month, typically with a substantial amount of time between crimes. Still, incredibly fascinating and disturbing. I've become a true crime buff lately, particularly serial killers, and can't believe I haven't heard of the Blackout Ripper before. Great video.

    During a flash flood in 1967 my grand parents lost their home, 2 of their children as well as most of their cattle. My grandma survived by holding on to a branch of a tree. As she was holding on she noticed a snake coming towards her. It slithered on to the branch and didn't attack her. Eventually grandpa found her and took her to a shelter.
