The Real-Life Ninja Turtles | Vermont’s Underground Lab
Episode 269
RSS — DESCRIPTION
In the 1960s, a secret laboratory beneath a small-town library in Vermont tested an illegal life-extension formula on animals. The goal: to make pets live longer. Every test failed—until they tried turtles. What began as success turned into something unexplainable. The turtles started watching the scientists, mimicking them, and one night, they escaped.
Twenty-five people were injured in the chaos that followed. The lab was exposed, its creators arrested, and the story buried. But locals still whisper about the shape seen walking upright through Pleasant Park after midnight—a turtle over seven feet tall.
