Be sure to tune in to Houdini, Labor Day at 9/8c, only on HISTORY.

In 2004, A man that would soon adopt the name Benjaman Kyle woke up outside of a Burger King in Georgia without any clothes, any ID, or any memories. He was diagnosed with Retrograde Amnesia, unable to remember who he was, and with no identification, unable to find out. Now, if this was like any other story about amnesia, it would have probably resolved itself soon after. But the trouble was, authorities couldn't identify him either. Local and state police failed to discover him in any known records despite an exhaustive search. And then in 2007, the FBI became involved, but were also unable to identify him: making him the only US citizen in history listed as missing despite his whereabouts being known. One particularly unfortunate side effect of not having your own identity is that without a social security number, he is unable to obtain full-time employment, and without memory of any past skills or disciplines, the problem is only amplified. After a student documentary was created about benjaman, news media picked up the story which attracted the attention of local business owners. One of the owners offered him a job washing dishes, a job which he is still working today. This enabled him to move out of the woods where he was sleeping and into an air conditioned shed where he now stays. But his true identity remains a mystery to this day.
