Question on Third Door (Incredible Tales)

student 17 SG

To those males who is about 22-30 years old(already served NS), who watched Incredible Tales on Saturday night on Third Door, how far is the story true? Which year did it happened? Find it quite gruesome especially with regard to the unexplained death of the NS serviceman.

Gordonator SG

it's only a legend, a tall tale. i think it's just a story passed down by many people to many people, meant only to scare the recruits... Wink

anyway, it happened in the 80s, charlie company if i'm not wrong. the only truth is that a recruit called Lin really did died in the jungle, cause of death unknown...

kopiosatu SG

from what i know its true. because i know some who were involved... well if they're lying its up to them. but on their account, its true

student 17 SG

But in the end another servicemen also hanged homself right? And there is only one dorm with an extra door right? So most likely some parts are true, maybe about some hauntings. By the way, kopiosatu, can you ask those friends as to what really happened? Home come cause of death unknown, and the programme said Lin's body was disected.

kopiosatu SG

well the guy i knew, said it happened just one batch before him... he's around 27-28.

Death unknown mah... got his guts laid out nicely on the floor, third door was for the spirits

student 17 SG

How gruesome! Any idea who or what disected his body? Is the third door open to people or always locked?

kopiosatu SG

story is, spirits did it to him.

and the third door isn't for people.

Xprobe SG

Your friend speaks a load of crap. I am 35 yrs old and I heard about even before my BMT

kopiosatu SG

35 years old, and when did u go to tekong?

Mospeada SG

u were from tekong also? which camp?

Xprobe SG

Cant tell you or someone can ID me very easily given my the other info I have posted about myself. But can give you a time period - late 80s.

kopiosatu SG

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm ok ok

student 17 SG

The area when Lin died, did MINDEF get any priests to exorcise the area, or offer any offerings? Is that area still used for night training? Seems that MINDEF should not let soldiers use the area anymore. And did the ghost of the second soldier who hanged himself manifested?

CyanSupra SG

waa...
really got such thing?

elindra SG

Err btw, what is a Third Door

Eiizumi SG

Its the 3rd (COUNT!) DOOR in a bunk.

zenmaster SG

Charlie Company in Tekong, Old Camp 1.
The bunk has an additional door in the middle, on top of the 2 doors at each end of the bunk.

Xprobe SG

Ask the mid-late 80s batch, all Attend Cs in or next to Charlie heard rifles cocking at night when all companies havent even come back from night shoot.

elindra SG

Ok. I’ve never been in an army camp because I’m female ma. Haha

erijazz SG
