Hello AllDeaf Community,

A few months ago an obscure mystery came to the attention of a popular imageboard. The content in question is within three youtube videos. The mystery? What the woman in question is saying. The audio is too muffled for those of us capable to understand. So . . . I am essentially begging for your HELP.

Can anyone lip-read what the young woman is saying? This is an ardent mystery and any hidden details would be greatly helpful.

Seeing I am unfamiliar with the rules and standards of this board I must INSIST that the dialogue to be seen may be HIGHLY offensive - as I cannot understand what she is saying by mere audio.

>>>I will happily elaborate on what I know of the mystery - if requested.<<<

I appreciate any help this community can provide : o)

I cannot tell you how appreciative I am. Let's try to solve this together.

p.s. I'll be back on later tonight to follow up.
 
we are solving a mystery.

I think the only one who can understand her is her own family. They are used to her way of talking. But she mumbles to much for me.

Yeah that seems to make the most sense. Gah!!

I guess I'll check in with some old colleagues and see if I can't track down a professional in a field relative to advanced lip-reading.

I do appreciate the attempt <3
 
Too blurry. Lipreading without any audio cues is very, very difficult and requires a very crisp view of the speaker's lips and mouth. I'd need to be able to see her teeth and tongue more clearly, and I just can't with this. I don't think anyone will be able to help you out, but good luck.

Also, the videos are kinda creepy. Like part of a bad horror movie or something...
 
is there something flashing in there? Like, subliminal messages?

I think I saw something in a foreign alphabet for an instant.

Yeah I guess you're right. I really appreciate this feedback. I'm a step closer than I was.

You know that may very well be the case. This entire excerpt may be un-used doc footage for a film. Although given each section and the tale behind it I'm fairly certain it isn't.

You know I'm not sure. I'm looking for rapidshare/torrents of this. Trying my best to get higher quality feed.

What exactly is "the tale behind it"?
 
Haven't got time to watch all the videos.

Just skimming thru, I noticed she is left handed, she smokes, she has a dated hairstyle (70's?), and she wears a ring (engagement, wedding?). Also, there are drops in continuity as her outfit changes back and forth with a clip. On part of the video only the top of her head shows. Something wrong with her lower right arm. Amputation? Birth defect?

The film quality and tracking bars make it seem like old-school video recording.

I will try to be as brief as possible. Concise is not my specialty.

A thread was created on a very popular image-board. (PM me to ask which one.) The creator told a tale in which he found a discarded computer tower. He took it home in hopes the power supply was functional for a friend in need. He booted up the machine and found nothing on it. The only contents were barbie.avi - Thusly the youtube uploads.

The video showed what you now see - a young one-armed woman talking. His story went on to discuss the last few minutes NOT posted to youtube. Where the footage cuts to railroad tracks and a broken piece of wood, et cetera. This reminds the writer that there are nearby railroad tracks either where he found the computer or somewhere near - I can't recall specifically. So he investigates the tracks and finds a shack off of where he links the piece of wood. He navigates the shack and finds an upgraded, LOCKED, door inside; highly creepy and peculiar. He walks upstairs and looks to a bathroom where he finds running water - which strikes him as being very strange - dripping on a piece of plastic covering a tub. He hears a noise and jets out of the shack.

He goes on to post a few pictures of the shack and fails to post anymore. Leaving all of us extremely puzzled and highly intrigued when these videos are - totally out of the blue - uploaded to youtube a few months later and re-posted to the image-board.

The videos may be a completely unrelated interview someone is trolling for responses with. However, why not investigate the content of them? Maybe it will lead us to further clues concerning the mysterious thread and barbie.avi itself.

Questions?
 
This is a thread from the guy who found the dumped computer that had the .avi videos from an abandoned house.

4chanarchive - /x/ - Creepypasta: barbie.avi

Some speculation that this girl may be dead, committed suicide.

I was able to lip read something, something about her disgust with her skin and at the end of video 3, she said, "signing off"

Her facial expression showed alot of depression.

The cam footage appears to be uploaded from a old style camera from the 1980s and converted as a upload into a computer judging her hairstyle from the time and clothing styles as well.

The thread from the looks of it, is about "Urban Dwellers" a popular hobby from people who likes to visit abandoned places, like old homes, hospitals, asylums, factories, etc. There's alot of websites dedicated to urban dwelling and they uploading pics of places they have visited. There's been some claims of ghost sightings as well.

How do we know that the back story is true?

The video showed what you now see - a young one-armed woman talking. His story went on to discuss the last few minutes NOT posted to youtube.

How do we know that part of the story is true, and if it is, that it even relates to the young woman? If the video of "barbie" is about 30 years old, how would the condition of the shack be relevant today?

Ha, ha. He certainly lured everyone in that way. :lol:

Curiosity? I don't know. Your personal motivation might be like mine. To find out who she is, her story. What why and when. Et cetera.
