2-13 In Search Of... Anastasia (Part 1 of 3)

Season 2 Episode 13 Part 1

Hosted by Leonard Nimoy and broadcast weekly from 1976 to 1982, In Search Of... is the greatest mystery documentary show ever. I grew up watching this show, enjoying the spine-tingling presentation of quasi-fact and dramatic synthesizer-heavy music of Rinder and Lewis.

I am not selling this material, neither am I interested in buying bootlegs. It is currently commercially unavailable, so I am joining with others to make evaluation of this excellent series possible.

I'm posting these videos to fill some gaps left by recently suspended users (from whom I downloaded these). Check my subscriptions to find users with more episodes, and drop me a note if you have posted any "new" ones. Thanks for watching!

Also from Wikipedia:

"Several women have falsely claimed to have been Anastasia, the most notorious of whom was Anna Anderson. Anderson's body was cremated upon her death in 1984, but DNA testing in 1994 on available pieces of Anderson's tissue and hair showed no relation to DNA of the Grand Duchess."

From Wikipedia: "Her possible survival has been entirely disproven. In January 2008, Russian scientists announced that the charred remains of a young boy and a young woman found near Ekaterinburg in August 2007 were most likely those of the thirteen-year-old Tsarevich and one of the four Romanov grand duchesses. Russian forensic scientists confirmed on April 30, 2008 that the remains were those of the Tsarevich Alexei and one of his four sisters."

@beautystruck "were most likely" and "one of the rour romanov grand duchesses and "one of his four sisters" does NOT prove that it "has been entirely disproven" those statements are not proof, but speculation at best.

@ztztzyzy I'm just quoting Wikipedia, and everyone knows that everything on there is not necessarily true, but a general consensus...

[BarelyLiberal]

this documentary got a lot wrong. For istance, it states that Empress Alexandra was happy with social events and enjoyed them. The Empress actually hated social events and was very shy. She hardly ever went to balls.

[Siouxsielover1]

@myvoicebreakscrystal wrong.

[MasterClassRU]

The father of zar Nicholas II was Alexander III, not Alexander II.

;(

@IR0NSIDED Your lying. They all died excpet possibly Anastasia. Besides what proof do you have.

[spiderwebbie96]

@IR0NSIDED They do have DNA, many European royals such as Queen Elizabeth II are related to the Romanov children. They are all related though Queen Victoria.

[myvoicebreakscrystal]

this is how the mystery got started.

[myvoicebreakscrystal]

this is how it happened. The family was tricked into a room thinking they were having their portrait taken and the person leading the revolt told them they were going to be executed. the killers then started firing and killed most of the family. Some of the sisters fought and were (if i remember correctly) stabbed. As they were carrying the bodies out they heard anastasia moan. She was still alive. they were burning the corpses and as they went to burn anastasia they couldnt find her.

@beautystruck Supposedly the one daughter that was with Alexei's body was not Anastasia, but it was that of Maria, their sister.

@ztztzyzy DNA evidence shows the girl was not Anastasia, but a Polish factory girl who disappeared.

PWNED.
