In all honesty I never really got this whole ARG business stuff. I mean seriously, what's the whole purpose of it? Just to have us on a wild goose chase after some guys random "clues to this and that" videos?

Pretty much. I think it's natural that our forum would participate in them; they're like simulations of a lot of the stuff we do. (Assuming that stuff involves cryptology. Mayans, anyone?  ) |

Well, I downloaded the entire video file from the "secret vault" and will be going over it soon.

Hmm, looks quite entertainingly exotic. Maybe I'll bond up with all the rest of you to discover this secret formula. Why, when I watched this video and looked at my Coca Cola bottle unexpectedly, curious of it's contents, I wanted to learn more.
Plus, what is this "Gangadiddle?" But, never mind that, we have work to participate into.
Firstly, it's a good suggestion you did that, Pyro, it may lead to a code, try and find out if you can. Secondly, we should get another forum to participate in this project, or at least another population of people that happen to be your friends. The more, the merrier. Now, thirdly, we should do experiments with Coca Cola. I don't know which type, but any type will do.
Now, on Youtube, I've stumbled upon an experiment that actually showed an egg being dropped into a cup of Coca Cola for a year, and coming out into a solid shape, but, in a more squishier fashion, where the egg would not break if you press your fingers on it normally, that would often break a portion of the egg. Instead, it actually squished forward, making room for the finger, while still keeping it's shape after the finger was removed. It was like a rubbery type of fashion, somewhat, and considering that egg shells are somewhat related to tooth mallow, that would happen to teeth once drunken enough.
Now, the situation being is what type of chemical could weaken an egg shell to such a state? Maybe someone could find out. It could probably be sugar, but it would of put some holes in the egg while doing so, not just leave it like that. Let's try and find out, it could probably link to the secret formula, if not, then it was a chance... Besides, discovery is all about taking risk, am I not wrong? So, let's try and see if we could find out.
I'm going to look up Doctor John Pemberton's and see if I can get any results. I'll note back if I do get anything interesting.
NEW INFO: It seems that the first version of Coca Cola was a Cola called "Pemberton's French Wine Cola." Apparently, it was used to cure an addiction to morphine that many people had gotten back in The Battle of Columbus, Georgia. Evidently, this drink was originally an experiment of coca and coca vines, which then made his own "Vin Mariani" (Don't know what that is, but I'll look in on it)
Now, I don't have much info than that, but, to the video...
What was the picture of those two men about? They looked as though they were holding Coca Cola bottles, as well as having laboratory coats on...They also had question marks on them. What could this mean? Could it mean that one of them is Pemberton, while the other is an assistant of his? I'll look into this, as it probably has a great meaning to this project of ours.
NEW INFO: Even more shocking news. Here's where it gets strange. The original recipe had coca leaves in it. Now, coca leaves actually have a substance of cocaine in it, up to 15 to 30 mgs Now, the company denies still using it, it's still used in Coca Cola drinks today, only in an spent fashion. Research, though, shows some cocaine still getting through This could be a hoax, but, I'm just lending info on the drink as much as I can. Remember, discovery is about taking risks, and we need to take some.
Also stranger is that in a court case in Antalya, Turkey mentions cochineal dye (I'll try to grab info on that) in it's drink. The company, however, denies it still uses the dye.
Wow, this is rather interesting, I'll get more info on the drink. But, now back to the video.
When the Coca-Cola is falling from a skyscraper, isn't there a date there? 1886? Someone, try and get a biography about Pemberton, and see anything that links to the date of 1886. Try and find out if anything interesting happened at that time. Now, about the bottle on the Coca Cola sign, It has NK and the C of Cola in it? Is it something about NKC? What does that mean? Could somebody find out, if they can.
Now, when the arrows spread around the world, Atlanta is it's starting point. According to many information sources, in 1885, Atlanta and Fulton Country enacted a temperance legislation, that's when Pemberton came up with a nonalcoholic alternative to his French Wine Cola, where it gained the name of Coca-Cola from Frank Mason Robinson, which later made it's way into the Coca Cola Company. Now, what does this have to do with the world? Maybe it could be at an earlier date, but what could it have to do with the world?
"Why would they want to steal it?" Who would want to steal the Coca Cola formula? Again, maybe a biography could note who.
Also, I just noticed the numbers on those two men at 43. I did some research and found out...
Only two people in the damn world know of this secret formula, where one know one part, and the other knows the other part.
What does this mean, exactly?
It means they could be anywhere in this entire world at any given time, and if one of them had something serious happen to them (death or something) It would mean the formula would be lost. Forever.
I don't know who those two men are, but I'll try to find out.
AeroAwesomeness, out

A pointless observation on the video (or not), it goes from a security guard to a knight to a ninja to the doc (in ghost form or something) to a robot and ghost doctor again. (A random dog is in there somewhere.)
This might mean (as is made obvious by the idea that Dr. P. is still alive) is that time is meaningless.
Of course, I'm just saying every little thing that pops into my head. Sometimes it ends up helping.

Of course, I'm just saying every little thing that pops into my head. Sometimes it ends up helping. But how could Doctor P. still be alive? He was born in 1803. Unless they had a type of perseverance chamber that kept him alive, then it would be impossible for him to have remained alive. But, maybe, it meant that his tradition was still going on, being held on by his sons or daughters. Maybe, but, it's highly unlikely. Still, there may be a chance. |

The Doctor is in game, so I will leave it to you to figure what is important or not.
But what you said about Coca-Cola, aero, is pretty fair knowledge. The coca ingredients, that is. One of my sources said that the Doctor also was trying to invent a cough syrup, another said a headache medicine.

One of my sources said that the Doctor also was trying to invent a cough syrup, another said a headache medicine. Yes, whenever they're is something rather interesting at hand, I always like to participate. I have a vast note for exploration in the unknown and paranormal. Things like that of which we cannot explain, or seem to get our hands on. Anyway, it seems I've looked up a biography of John Pemberton, and it seems...Well, this will better point it out. "The product that has given the world its best-known taste was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886. Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a local pharmacist, produced the syrup for Coca-Cola®, and carried a jug of the new product down the street to Jacobs' Pharmacy, where it was sampled, pronounced "excellent" and placed on sale for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink." So, now we know what the 1886 part of the video means...But, what of the worldwide exchange part, beginning at Atlanta? Does it have a special tie to what of been held today? I'll try and do some more research on it tomorrow. See you then. NEW INFO: HOLY SNAP CRACKLE POP. It seems I just got hands on the ORIGINAL sheet of paper that displays the recipe. It was written by JOHN PEMBERTON himself, and is actually 100% legit. It was written just before his death, in his diary. Now, this is the original, maybe the recipe nowadays has been changed, but, this is as close to the Coca Cola Recipe as we can get. Alright, here it goes. # * 1 oz (28 g) caffeine citrate * 3 oz (85 g) citric acid * 1 US fl oz (30 ml; 1 imp fl oz) vanilla extract * 1 US qt (946 ml; 33 imp fl oz) lime juice * 2.5 oz (71 g) "Merchandise 7X" * 30 lb (14 kg) sugar * 4 US fl oz (118.3 ml; 4.2 imp fl oz) powder extract of cocaine (decocainized flavor essence of the coca leaf) * 2.5 US gal (9.5 l; 2.1 imp gal) water * caramel sufficient # Merchandise 7X(I can't seem to find out what this X means): * 80 oil orange * 40 oil cinnamon * 120 oil lemon * 20 oil coriander * 40 oil nutmeg * 40 oil neroli # "Mix caffeine acid and lime juice in 1 quart boiling water add vanilla and flavoring when cool. Let stand for 24 hours." Now, this is the original, but, I'm sure that Coca-Cola has changed the recipe. But, if you guys want to call this a wrap, then I'm okay with that. Also, I found this |

From a section of the medical files in the link AeroAwesomeness found: He continues at length about "a taste you will never get tired of that will be smarter than a tongue's tastebuds." Then he asked about something called a "corndog." Patient reports fantastical visions from the future involving impossibly cute polar bears, floating ice cream, and large crowds eating exploded kernels of corn in the dark while watching moving pictures.Seems Chaosky was probably on to something with the time stuff, but I dunno what. The second file in that link is the same picture at 0:18 in the video, and assumably the X-Ray screening of the knee damaged by shrapnel mentioned in the medical records. The third file seems to show that he was against war, but I can't figure out anything other than that obvious point. Though I can't read the writing under what I see as a bubbling oasis or something, and an animal (impossibly cute polar bear?) getting an achievement ribbon? Meh, I know I'm mostly just pointing out all the obvious stuff, but whatever. EDIT: Plus, what is this "Gangadiddle?" I don't know much about it since I haven't been paying much attention towards it, other than it involves all riddles and codes and such, and members here and at another forum have been researching it for months. www.tdresearchclub.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=arg&action=display&thread=1432&page=1 |

Say, what about those little Coca Cola bottle icons in the top right corner that appears every now and then? Maybe it is there to tell us the most important parts. Or, even, it is there to tell us the least important parts. It only appears here and there, and occasionally in two videos in succession. It may be a clue.
Edit: About the two labcoat dudes, the were both holding a peice of paper. The little icon was there too. I think that maybe when Dr. P died, two people, most likely either collegues or those with envy of his "wine" found the formula and promised each other not to give it to the wrong hands. Or something like that. I'll just read a few wikipedia articles.

Well, in the file where he mentions all those food items, he's clearly referring to corn dogs, popcorn, and... well I can't actually make out what the flying ice cream is. @ AeroAwesome's first comment: The two people holding cokes next to each other with a question mark is actually related to a commercial they released. If you're a frequent movie goer like me, you see it a lot. Also, I tried different URLs on COke's website, and their 'Cannot find page' splashpage is weird. www.coca-cola.com/restricted/reedfiles/(I was trying to see if Coke gave us an info on the modifiers of the coke recipe. ) Yay for not helping. |

I think everytime they appear an annotation link appears, so clicking the video when one's up will open the link. Chaosky got all the links in the first post. |

The file said "Floating Ice Cream". Well, a long time ago, I saw drinks with Ice Cream in them. The Ice Cream was floating, but I forgot what kind of snack that was called. It kinda makes me think of a Rootbeer float that kids drink. I was right. I just googled Floating Ice Cream and found this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_cream_soda E: Corn Dog - People can eat with a drink, and that drink can be Coca-Cola Popcorn - At the movies, they usually offer Coca-Cola with Popcorn Ice Cream Soda - This is pretty easy, Coca-Cola with Ice Cream on top. A Coca-cola Float. All the food mentioned usually can go with Coca-Cola (Or as many say, Coke) so I think Dr.Pemberton was thinking of stuff that would either go great with Coca-Cola or would mix in with Coca-Cola. |

Aero, how did you find that restricted access page? I've looked everywhere I know and I can't find anything.
