This audiobook is about what happens when the only way to stay alive is to overcome seemingly impossible odds. These are stories of courage, determination, and the ability to overcome injury, pain, and physical and mental challenges that seem overwhelming. But most of all, these are stories about the triumph of the human spirit. When everything seems lost, when all hope of rescue is gone, when exhaustion, illness, injury, and hunger have taken their toll, some people still find the mental strength to continue. Are these special people?

Policemen are trained to respond logically and rationally in moments of stress - they have a very stressful job wherein they are seen as de facto villains for both criminals as well as the people they are protecting. They often, to their detriment, represent the ruling class, causing them to not have many admirers. It is thus interesting to see the number of accounts reported by policemen that hint at a paranormal entity, as this seems to be an aberration with respect to their usual personality.

People have been speculating about the Rosicrucians for more than 400 years. Are they a shadowy secret society that controls governments? Do they really possess arcane and powerful knowledge passed down from medieval alchemists? Or from the Ancient Egyptians? Or extra-terrestrials? Or supernatural entities? Find out. It is fairly well known that there are links between Rosicrucian groups and astrology, the occult, and extra-sensory perception. What is less well known is that there are also links between Rosicrucian groups and black magic, murder, suicide, and even the Nazis.

The pirate is one of the best-known and most-loved anti-heroes. The image of a swaggering adventurer in a tricorne hat and a pair of long leather sea-boots has been a part of Western popular culture for more than 300 years. However, a great deal of what we believe about pirates is actually based on fictional stories, and even the popular conception of what a pirate looks like is based on a very specific time and place. The truth is that pirates have been around for as long as humans have been sailing ships out of sight of land.

Between robberies, reports of lost people and pets, bar fights, domestic fights, car accidents, and anything else you can imagine, police officers have an incredibly difficult job. Listen to these eyewitness accounts of what members of the police force have had to deal with, and perhaps gain a better understanding - and appreciation - of what they are doing for you.

Every year since 1954, a Bilderberg meeting has been held in an exclusive hotel in Europe or North America. Attendance is by invitation only and includes some of the most powerful and influential people in the Western world. Are Bilderbergers working toward a new world order? Are they part of the secret ruling elite known as the Illuminati? Are they even human? Let's look at the evidence and see if we can assess whether Bilderberg meetings really do have an impact on the way that the Western world is run.

The Skull and Bones society, for decades, has captured the imagination of thousands. With such an ominous name, people across the globe have questioned the practices, rituals, and beliefs of the members. With rumors of all sorts of activity surrounding the acts of the society, it can be incredibly difficult to know what to believe. Are they as bad as some think they are? Do they engage in Satanic rituals and activities? Let's discover what really goes on inside the Skull and Bones society, and finally learn the truth.

Even with every effort we take to provide safety, the danger still exists. Thousands of people per year go missing and are never heard from again. The missing person is a unique phenomenon, one that is so powerful it can grip the public in fear as well as unite it. Some cases garner national attention; others are local legends. Men, women, and children are all subject to the possibility that today may be the last day they see their loved ones.  

The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and the Temple of Solomon were a religious organization as part of the Roman Catholic Church. During their 200-year existence, the Knights Templar (as they are popularly known) developed from a primarily military and monastic purpose to become the wealthiest and one of the most powerful Church orders.

Police officers make good witnesses, mainly because that is what they are trained to do. When a police officer responds to a call, they never know what they are likely to encounter. Police officers also often find themselves in odd places, whether it's a patrol at the dead of night on a lonely stretch of road or attending a call of a disturbance at a remote house, police officers go to places that most of us never will.

The Gestapo were the secret police that Hitler instituted to ferret out spies and other people who did not fall in line with his ideologies; if, for instance, someone was suspected of being of Jewish origin, Hitler would send the Gestapo to round them up, take them into custody, interrogate them - often with violent and painful methods - and then either kill or send them to a concentration camp where they would probably die in any case.

The most celebrated attempt at the führer's life, is believed to be the one carried out by Clause von Stauffenberg, in Hitler's Wolf's lair headquarters. The explosion killed four, but Hitler survived. The attempted conspiracy was documented in a feature film The Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise as Clause von Stauffenberg. What is interesting to note, is that the motivation of almost all the assassins and conspirators greatly varied. While some wanted to take over his position as the leader of Germany, there were some who wanted to put an end to the Second World War.

Conspiracy theories are a fascinating study of imagination meshed with facts to create a reality where even the moon landing could be faked. Many discredit conspiracy theories as baseless and attention seeking, but it would do us well to remember that many of these conspiracy theories have been proven to have been true after all. Almost without a doubt, the Illuminati are the Holy Grail of conspiracy theories (pun unintended).

The history of the world brims with the whispers of secret societies. Much remains hidden from the knowledge of the common man and the mystery that trails secret societies, remain a part of the lesser known. Some of these elusive organizations have become laymen's knowledge but the information garnered is, more than often, vague and incomplete....
