#405: Man From Viral Tiktok Looks Exactly Like Missing Husband- Did He Fake His Own Death For Another Girl

Rotten Mango

Do you trust a random stranger to give you life-altering advice? A TikToker is standing on the sidewalk with a giant pasteboard - “ASK ME FOR FREE ADVICE.”  A middle aged man on a bike stops and asks “Do I go to Uzbekistan or stay here?” The whole exchange is bizarre. She asks him why would he move? He tells her for a woman. She asks him why doesn’t he just date an American woman? He tells her that he’s already married with kids… All of this is made more confusing by the fact that the entire time the man appears calm. He’s pleasant and keeps smiling…  That TikTok is filmed in June. In August, just 2 months later, a man goes missing in one of the deepest lakes in the state. He’s presumed dead.  But why does he look identical to the man in the TikTok video? Did this man actually drown?  Or did he fake his death, abandon his wife and kids, to be with a new woman?

“I woke up alone in a hospital. There is nobody here. I can’t find a single person. Humanity is extinct. The date is February 2027.” That is from a viral TikToker, Javier, who claims he is from the future to warn us about humanity. But there’s no way he’s actually from the future, right? Meanwhile, in Miami - an IG model is telling the police - “the aliens are coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming. They’re coming.” The authorities are confused. She tells them - “I’m from the future. I’m a crystal ball. You can live off me.” The police ask her if she remembers what happened.  “Yes, I remember. I died.” Puzzling. Because she’s not dead. She is very much alive but just one block down there are two people that are dead and they’re not coming back.  Full Source Note: www.rottenmangopodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Rotten Mango

Someone is going to die at the luxury 5 star resort… it’s going to happen. It happened in Hawaii. The hotel manager was stabbed by a wealthy hotel guest.  Then in Italy. A wealthy woman was killed by her husband for her inheritance. And now - someone is going to die at the Four Season Resort in Thailand.  At least in the show White Lotus. Season 3 with Lisa from Blackpink will debut sometime in 2025.  The only thing is - did you know there was an actual real life murder mystery there?  The wife of one of China’s richest men was found floating in the private villa pool. She was dead. But more interesting than that is the rich man’s first wife was also found dead 10 years prior. Leaving everyone to question - is this wealthy man and high profile business tycoon killing off his wives one by one? How is he getting away with it? 3 deaths spanning across 3 countries.  1 billionaire family and a son searching for his dad to get answers.  Will White Lotus be based on this true story?
