Transcript

The casket of Queen Elizabeth I, while on view in Whitehall, Palace, London, mysteriously exploded. The coffin was shattered, yet the queen's body was unharmed. Believe it or not. In a moment, I'll tell you about a fantastic pilgrimage.

The pilgrims to Mount Keilis in Tibet indulge in the most fantastic pilgrimages in the world. They must circle the 22,000-foot mountain on their stomachs. They complete each circuit in the bitter cold, and this requires three weeks.

Yet many of the pilgrims circle the mountain in this manner a dozen times. Ultimately rising and prostrating themselves, they a night for nine months. Believe it or not.
