History Abridged with Jack Rackam | The Man from Taured part 2 - the True Story #shorts @JackRackam | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
There’s an urban legend about the man from Taured who arrived in Tokyo airport with a stamped passport originating in a country that doesn’t exist in our reality, details in part 1. Here’s the truth: A man arrived in Tokyo Airport 1959 claiming to come from a country south of Ethiopia called Negus Habes, his passport written in an unknown script similar to arabic. He gave his whole life story, how he fought in the war, how he’s an American spy based in South Korea who’s on a secret mission for Egypt acting as a diplomat to Negus Habes to recruit Japanese military volunteers. The courts contacted all of those countries, at least the ones that existed, and found him guilty of identity fraud. As for all the stamps he’d collected in his alternate reality passport? They were fake too.
