Top Comments of this video!! :3
The “club” that cracked the Zodiac Killer’s code are pure geniuses!! The way they cracked it was by using a misspelled word. The word in the cyphered code was properly spelled with an “i” and the code breaker used a “y” and then solved it! If you ever watch the movie with Robert Downey Jr. where he plays the reporter who is in estivating the Zodiac Killer, it was the guy he went to visit in SoCal. He died before he could be arrested.

Wasn't the Somerton man all but confirmed to be suicide? The "Tamam Shud" text was in his pocket because he was a fan of poetry (and 'it is finished' is a fitting phrase to carry into the end of your life), and the "undeciphered codes" were notes/math/whatever he had written out to help bet on horse races.

My dad worked at an oil refinery less than a mile from where the first known Zodiac killings took place.
He didn't know this until he got home of course, but he knew about it the following night when he was on top of one of the big oil tanks, perfectly silhouetted against the refinery lights.
He laid down making himself as thin as possible and called for help on the radio.
The police were called and it turned out it was the armed security guard for the industrial park adjacent to the refinery.
I guess he had a rather intense conversation with police, with the cops wanting to know about his location the night before. He was cleared as a suspect though. The managers decided they didn't need that particular security guard and decided an armed guard wasn't even needed.
I believe the security guard didn't know anything about the killing the night before.

Somerton beach man-DNA was from a plaster cast taken before he was buried. His wife was in Victoria-he left her. The book of poetry had the phone number of a 27 yr old nurse, who lived a 5 min walk from where body was found. When she saw the plaster cast-she nearly fainted. She told daughter-she knew who the man was, but couldn't talk about it. The daughter suspected her mother could speak Russian & may have been a spy. There was blood in the stomach and an enlarged spleen-a slow acting poison. No vomit in area of the body-shiny shoes + seen with 2 other men-killed elsewhere and taken to beach. The book that the scrap had been ripped out of and later tossed into the back of a car was a rare first edition [1859] of that work.
