Manage episode 438938857 series 3512829
Often referred to as the "Wonderman”, the Count of St. Germain was an enigmatic 18th-century figure. His exact date of birth and origin is unknown, but he reportedly was multilingual and highly educated in music, philosophy, and politics. The Count found his way into various European royal courts and was rumored to be a key figure in historical events. He was also reputed to be a master alchemist, allegedly defying death to achieve immortality—rumors even some of his contemporaries believed. Though he supposedly died in 1784, stories persisted that he belonged to secret cults and lived on as various other people, with some claiming his existence since the time of Christ. Was he truly immortal, a time traveler, or merely a clever conman?
