 		[Trailhead ?] Can you help me
I've only been involved with a few ARG's and lurked a few others so I'm not entirly sure how to spot a trailhead, but while flicking through the newest YouTube vids I saw this.

Is it something?

 		also, it references the Voynich Manuscript

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voynich_manuscript
Quote:
The Voynich manuscript is a mysterious undeciphered illustrated book. It is thought to have been written between 1450 and 1520. The author, script, and language of the manuscript remain unknown.

Over its recorded existence, the Voynich manuscript has been the object of intense study by many professional and amateur cryptographers, including some top American and British codebreakers of World War II fame (all of whom failed to decrypt a single word). This string of failures has turned the Voynich manuscript into a famous subject of historical cryptology, but it has also given weight to the theory that the book is simply an elaborate hoax — a meaningless sequence of arbitrary symbols.

The book is named after the Polish-American book-dealer Wilfrid M. Voynich, who acquired it in 1912. As of 2005, the Voynich manuscript is item MS 408 in the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library of Yale University. The first facsimile edition was published in 2005.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I do not know who to trust anymore. It feels like everyone is watching me. Even the others. I have found a safe place to hide for now I think. But they may have already found my video. That is why I have divided this message up between you, in case on of you is on of them. Next time you will need LKJHG MNBVC POIXZ QWEAS FDRTY U
