1. KFC CHICKEN RECIPE:
Kentucky Fried Chicken, better known by its acronym, is a franchise of fast-food restaurants specializing in fried chicken. Its founder Sanders created in 1940 the recipe of his famous fried chicken, which is kept secret. It is known that eleven spices and different aromas mixed with the flour are used, but the rest of the condiments are unknown.
There’s a sheet with the original recipe signed by Sanders himself in a safe deposit box at KFC headquarters in Louisville. Only two company executives have access to it and their names haven’t been disclosed for security reasons. So definitely, next to the Coca-Cola formula, this represents one of the best-kept secrets of the world in marketing.
2. WHO WAS JACK THE RIPPER?
Jack the Ripper was a serial killer who committed several crimes in 1888, mainly in Whitechapel, London, as well as in the poor neighborhoods around. His identity continues to be a mystery to the police.
This psychopath was described by the experts as an intelligent, effective, mocking, cunning, and cold man, obsessed with murder. The attacks attributed to him involved prostitutes, whom he killed following a distinctive modus operandi consisting of cutthroat, strangling, and abdominal mutilation. Removal of the internal organs of at least three of the victims led to the belief that the killer had anatomical or surgical knowledge.
3. ARSENIC IN NAPOLEON'S HAIR: WAS HE POISONED?
Another of the great secrets of the world: Napoleon could die poisoned? As we all know, Napoleon was banished by the British to the island of St. Helena on July 15, 1815. There he was sick to the stomach and suffered from pain in the right side, so the doctors diagnosed him with possible stomach cancer. However, recent analyzes of samples of the general’s hair, cut shortly after death and that have been preserved, reveal that they were impregnated with arsenic in a highly dangerous dose. This suggests that Napoleon could die from poisoning, which would also agree with his symptoms. In addition, Napoleon died very fat, almost swollen.
4. DEATH OF MARILYN MONROE:
She was found dead at her residence on August 5, 1962, at the age of 36. It was said that her death was due to barbiturate overdose, but due to lack of evidence, it wasn’t classified as suicide but as a possible suicide. But many people, including LA police officers, believed that his death was a murder, making it one of the most debated conspiracy theories of the twentieth century.
Marilyn had an affair with John F. Kennedy, but when the president thought she could be a political danger, he ended the relationship. In addition, Monroe maintained friendships with Communists residing in Mexico. This era was of the Cold War, so a woman that knew Secrets of State and that had contacts with the communists could easily represent a danger for the American government and the national security.
5. WHO BUILT THE PYRAMID?:
The pyramid construction techniques rather than being one of the best-kept secrets of the world is just a mystery. This is a subject that has brought debates to historians, archaeologists, and members of the scientific community. The men of Ancient Egypt built them more than 4,500 years ago, in the middle of the desert and with tools that today would be useless. One theory appears behind another, the next one disassembles the previous, so on. But this issue remains a mystery and only the ancient Egyptians could give us the true answers.
