00:00First, though, we're going to get started here.
00:13I knew this was going to be bad when I saw you live.
00:18Why are we merengue-ing?
00:20What are you doing? You're dancing now.
00:21What is happening right now?
00:23He is doing the whitest merengue you've ever seen.
00:25I'm just not kicking it up. I don't want to throw my back out again.
00:28Oh, yeah, don't do that.
00:29Oh, yeah, he just must have got into his pills again.
00:33A little sore today.
00:37No, there's this crazy story, you guys, is where we're going to start in the Dominican Republic.
00:42A family in the Dominican Republic did something unbelievable.
00:51What did they do?
00:52They were having a big celebration, and they wanted Grandma to be there.
00:57They didn't dig her up.
01:00They didn't dig her up.
01:01Problem is, Grandma died 10 years ago.
01:03No, they didn't.
01:06They dug Grandma up, Chuck.
01:07They didn't open it up, though, right?
01:09They didn't open it up and take her out, did they, Dave?
01:12Yes, they did, Chuck.
01:13No.
01:14No, they didn't.
01:15When Margarita Rosario was dug up at La Colonia Cemetery.
01:24How's she doing?
01:24They were shocked by her perfect appearance.
01:28What?
01:30What?
01:31That's shocking to me as well, then.
01:35What kind of chemicals did they...
01:36A decade after her burial, they claim they find the corpse perfectly preserved.
01:45What?
01:46She had a full head of hair.
01:49Okay, you would.
01:50Some skin.
01:51And enough bones to be able to stand with little support.
01:56Do they have a picture of her?
01:58Yes, Chuck, they do.
01:59Oh, my goodness, Grandma.
02:02How you doing, Grandma?
02:05You ready?
02:06Yeah.
02:09That's Grandma now.
02:10Yeah, she's...
02:12I don't think she's looking that great.
02:13She's not.
02:14I don't think so.
02:15She's not.
02:16She's got no eyes.
02:19Of course.
02:20The nose is gone.
02:22I mean...
02:23Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.
02:25It's so crazy.
02:28I don't get it.
02:29I really don't get why you'd do this.
02:31I've never heard of this happening in my life.
02:32Is this some sort of thing that happens in other countries that we've never heard of?
02:36I don't know.
02:36No, I've never heard of this in my life.
02:38Let the rest in peace, you know?
02:40Can we stop the merengue music while we...
02:43Yeah.
02:43Can we please...
02:44They were on her for a party.
02:46I'm setting the scene.
02:48I know, I know.
02:49I know.
02:50But now I'm watching a skeleton be put in a dress.
02:55One family member said she was a great person in life.
02:58That's why she's still preserved.
03:01She keeps standing up by herself and everything.
03:04Oh, man.
03:04No.
03:05Intact, incredible skin as if the years had not passed, said another.
03:09You're a very alive son of a bitch.
03:10Yeah, that's not true.
03:11Others were not pleased, though, that the family disturbed their grandmother's rest.
03:16People saying, why did they need to take it out?
03:19You can't even let the dead rest in peace anymore?
03:21I don't get it.
03:22The family said they wanted her to be a part of their celebration.
03:25She's not.
03:28She has the smell, right?
03:30Oh.
03:31God, Jason.
03:32I didn't even think about that either.
03:34She's been in the ground for 10 years.
03:35I know, but I didn't think about grandma's odor.
03:39Yep.
03:39I mean, I think when they cracked that thing open, it would have been...
03:42Like worms and stuff.
03:43One of the worst.
03:44Oh, my God.
03:45I'm just saying.
03:46Yep.
03:47Maybe in 10 years, though, all that stuff is done.
03:49Like all the worms and stuff.
03:50I feel like they feast for quite some time.
03:53I mean, a decade.
03:54She's still...
03:54Come on, how long?
03:55She's still got some parts.
03:56Depends on how much of the brain's still left in there.
03:58They talk about the skin.
03:59I didn't see no...
04:00Did you see skin?
04:01Well, that's skin on her, yeah.
04:02I guess there is.
04:03There is.
04:04Oh, my God.
04:05What's crazy is nothing takes down that grandma hair.
04:08No.
04:08It's pretty incredible, really.
04:10It's almost flammable.
04:12Like flame-proof.
04:13It's unstoppable.
04:14Al believes she looks even more pleasant as a corpse.
04:19She's actually prettier.
04:22She looks like Charles Bronson.
04:28Yeah.
04:30All right.
04:30So we go from the Dominican to Africa as we take our world news travels this morning.
04:38Okay.
04:39Here's another crazy ritual.
04:40Okay.
04:41In some African cultures, it's believed that ancestors are reincarnated as bees.
04:51Okay.
04:51Okay.
04:52Yeah.
04:52Yeah.
04:54As a result, Nikun Tensha Ninjabamba is no longer with us.
05:03Well, they're killer bees over there, right?
05:07I would hate to be... have to be a bee.
05:10That seems like they got so much work to do.
05:12It's like you just died, and then you got all that work.
05:16Yeah.
05:16You got all that work that...
05:17Yeah.
05:18A lot of work.
05:19Like, oh, my God.
05:20I was reincarnated as a bee?
05:23He was speaking with the bees...
05:26Mm-hmm.
05:28...that were swarming during a traditional ceremony.
05:32He couldn't quite figure out the message his ancestors were trying to send him.
05:41Oh.
05:42He figured it out, though, when he died.
05:45So he had to get closer.
05:47Oh, no.
05:48To the African killer bees.
05:51Just to understand what his ancestors were...
05:53Yeah.
05:54...really trying to say to him.
05:55Yeah.
05:56Yeah.
05:56That's when the bees swarmed.
06:00Yep.
06:01And turned on him.
06:04Hard to hear that.
06:05Well, because the...
06:06You got the...
06:07You got the African...
06:10There you go.
06:11What are you doing?
06:22Are you being stung?
06:25Or you just like the music?
06:26Oh, no.
06:28What?
06:28You like the song?
06:29Oh, no.
06:30Yeah, I like it, too, man.
06:32It's good.
06:32It's one of my favorite beats.
06:33Yeah, no.
06:35I don't know those lyrics.
06:38Bees together, mate.
06:40Bees together, mate.
06:41Bees together, mate.
06:42What?
06:42Bees together, mate.
06:43Bees together, mate.
06:44Bees together, mate.
06:44Yeah, go.
06:45Run, run, run.
06:46Go, not the set of Ninja Baba.
06:48Run, run, run, run, run, run, run.
06:50Woo!
06:51Oh, I defaulted.
06:52Ah, no.
06:58That's how it unfolded.
06:59Ninja Baba eventually died from multiple stings.
07:02Yeah.
07:02From his swarming, what he believed to be, family members.
07:05No, just as we call them over here, the African killer bees, because they're killer bees over
07:15there.
07:15They kill you.
07:18Again, I'm thankful that I don't believe my ancestors will try to communicate with me
07:24as bees.
07:25Yeah.
07:26That's another thing you can be grateful for.
07:27Yeah.
07:29They had to pick something else, you know?
07:31And if they do, they do communicate with you, it's like, just make it easy to understand
07:36so you don't get swarmed.
07:38Like, uh, maybe, uh...
07:41He's like, huh?
07:43Yeah, I don't know.
07:44Huh?
07:44I don't know what other animals...
07:45They got...
07:46They didn't listen.
07:47What was that?
07:48There's a lot of dangerous animals over there.
07:50Yeah.
07:50So, like, you can't say they come back as, like, a croc, because they're hard to talk
07:58to.
07:59Yeah.
07:59Lions.
08:00I can honestly say I never imagined these two sound effects in my headphones.
08:04No.
08:04Together?
08:04No.
08:05At the same time?
08:06Swarming bees and African music.
08:08African Congo drums.
08:09Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, babe.
08:13Eh, babe.
08:16Somebody, please!
08:18I love Nick Oshenta when he joins in.
08:20Somebody, please help!
08:23He's good.
08:24He's a good singer.
08:27Yeah.
08:28Until he dies.
08:28Yeah, he was dying.
08:31Better at singing than he is at communicating with bees.
08:33Yeah, yeah.
08:33He absolutely is.
08:35So, he gone.
08:36Yes.
08:37Rest in peace, Nick Oshenta and Ninja Bamba.
08:39Now he's a bee.
08:41Now, well, apparently, according to him.
08:43Uh-huh.
08:44According to his family.
08:45Yeah.
08:46His ancestors were saying, F you.
08:48Yeah, yeah, they did.
08:50They were stinging him.
08:51Yes, he died.
08:52No.
08:53No.
08:53No.
08:58No.
08:59No.
08:59No.
08:59No.
09:08No.
09:12No.
