Of all the bizarre mysteries the internet has ever presented, a website titled 973-eht-namuh-973 is unique for a couple of reasons: for one thing, it’s still active, and if you click that link, you can investigate it for yourself right now. If you choose to do so, however, be aware that you might be signing up for a long trip down a very deep rabbit hole, because another thing that makes 973-eht-namuh-973 unique is its immense size: by some estimates, the site may contain upwards of 100,000 links, leading to an untold number of pages.
Pictured above is a typical page on the site, and as you can see, it can’t exactly be called gibberish; it definitely has its preoccupations, such as the Egyptian pantheon of gods, numerical sequences and ciphers in which numbers correspond to letters of the alphabet, and in particular, the number 9. The site was allegedly created by a mysterious figure named David Denison, who has had not one word to say about his intent.
There is, though, a forum where users can discuss their journeys, and yes, there are a handful of posts from those who claim to have “gotten it,” to have deciphered whatever message it’s trying to impart. As one might expect, though, they’re not about to spill the beans, if indeed there are any to spill — because, as one such user put it, “Wisdom comes through work. Should you be granted everything, you wouldn’t progress.”
