Servus zsammen, your lieblings-Ami back again with more research. [As I posted last year,](https://www.reddit.com/r/Austria/comments/jke5ks/whats_the_weirdest_local_austrian_story_you_know/) I’m continually on the hunt for cool, WTF, interesting, funny stories. Last year’s post brought up some cool interesting stuff, but nothing that grabbed me enough to try and get someone else (like a magazine editor, or a TV exec) to grab on to it.
I’m looking for out-there stuff – the kind of stories that told and re-told in communities, maybe few know the whole story, maybe it’s just so wild as to be unbelievable.
[Here’s a written piece that I found the subject matter quite cool](https://www.outsideonline.com/culture/essays-culture/john-ackerman-caves-minnesota/)
[Here’s a documentary that’s a big, obvious story](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5Mpj73OVDE&t=71s)
[Amazing stuff](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-three-identical-strangers-documentary-20180702-story.html)
Why am I asking you guys: more people know more stuff. Simple. As. That.
If I place (a magazine article) or try to develop (moving images) the story you told me about, I’ll pay you €100 no questions asked.
To be clear, I expect most answers here won’t make the cut – but I’m happy to do whatever I can to encourage really interesting stuff! Not really sure how to prove I can do that… alright, first three people to respond with an honest attempt at an answer (not included in last year’s post) get €20 Amazon or Lieferando Gift Cards, their choice. (Just maybe give me a few hours, I’m working, running errands, and going ski touring!)
Note: PMs are totally OK.
Sie können gerne auf Deutsch oder Mundart antworten – es mir wuascht.

So, not sure if I understood you correctly. You want us to post interresting local stories here, preferrably with links?
So you want to bait people into doing research for you or do creative thinking and then “generously” pay them a lousy 100€ while you surely expect to make way more out of it?
All while you spread that disgusting “hustling” vibe in your posting. Get lost.
EDIT Judging from your posting history it seems you are a freelance videographer of sorts. I know the business so I know you have surely come across the kind of “business”-person that trys to sell you on the idea of doing work for too little money while being overly enthusiastic about how great you are and how generous they are. In reality they just want to take advantage of you or your knowledge in some way.
Right now YOU are that person. Do you want to be that person?
