Fun fact:Wendigos originate from Algonquian folklore there are 7 types of wendigo from different Algonquian tribes some of them do have animal features but none of them have deer skulls. Until dawn wendigos are very accurate to what wendigos are look like in the original stories but not quite because wendigos are supposed to be over 15 feet because in the original stories it says the more they eat the taller they become which is why they are always hungry and why Algonquian legend calls them giants with a heart literally made of ice.Wendigos get so hungry that they chew their lips off. Since they are winter spirits they only live in cold places in the American continent like Minnesota's northwoods, the forest of the great lake region and the central regions of Canada. The only way to kill a wendigo is to destroy the heart with fire.Once the heart is destroyed he trapped human is now free but now the wendigo spirits is also free to posses new victims. They only posses anyone that eats human flesh in a winter forest once possessed the victim becomes more monstrous.Wendigos represent the dangers of selfishness and greed taking over a person.

I may be just a city guy with absolutely no experience of camping but i'm pretty sure that, even without scary monster trying to kill you, you do NOT walk around in the woods at night. Seriously i want to know what the plan was with whole "i see eyes shining in the dark, let's go check them" situation.

As a half-country boy I can say that if I saw glowing eyes higher than mine in the distance while I am camping I would find the nearest thing that could be used as as a weapon then wake up my father and anyone else camping with me. Also, I do tend to walk a bit into the woods at night in order to pee. But not very far and most certainly not if I was under any sort of risk.

Not trying to save I don't think. If you have tons of people taking your food and pretty much turning rotten it's less for them to eat. That was demonstrated at the beginning.. I honestly think the big foot attacked so they have a bigger chance at a meal.
Really happy you said the best thing to run into was a bear and not a moose. A moose is wayyy scarier. Heck, their biggest predator is the orca when moose get too cocky and decide to swim.
You can technically reason with a bear by leaving them alone when they start entering threat stances. They aren't looking to kill people, they're more interested in fish and berries than meat. Only reasons they get pissed is when you're in their territory or if you're too close to their cubs.
A lesson that I learned pretty quickly from being out in the wilderness a lot is that if a predator is attacking you, it's (usually) because it's hungry and if you can convince it you're not worth the trouble it'll hunt something else. But if an herbivore is attacking you, it's because it wants to kill you and you better hope to God that you have something to save your ass.

A lot of that also applies to skinwalkers. All I know is that one side of has some Native American and the other has some proper Irish. And both sides come with stories to stay out of the woods at night.
Yea its just that, a superstition, now granted i aint bout to be doin it at night in the forest lmfao, too tactically minded for that, wouldnt wanna give away my location, but at the same time i wouldnt be out there at apl without at least three guns, my 357, semi auto shotgun, and my lovely ak107, hell racking off the magnum like three times would make anyone or anythint stop and think for a moment hmmm is this guna hurt? And at least i can fight back, even if its pointless
@@themanwithnoname1839Where the hell did you get an AK-107? Assuming you live in the US, there's no way you were able to buy an AK-107 or the civilian version (SR-1) as I'm pretty sure Kalashnikov only made one production run because it was a huge commercial flop. Not to mention, it's a pain to get newer Russian rifles intended for military use (I mean fully built in Russia and shipped overseas. Excluding parts kits)
17:42 That's creepy, I live near the Uwharrie national forest, and one night I was walking home from my mom's house and as I stepped up onto my porch this ball of dirt hit me right in the face. Knocked my lens out of my glasses and I had to run back to my mom's and she had to put a flax seed in my eye to remove some debris. I never thought it could have been thrown. Just thought it got catapulted somehow... Creepy!
I was in Iceland once. And i experienced the 'hidden people (Huldufolk)" It's a long story. I did not actually see the creatures, but i did hear them and it made me rly scared. It was like i was on the same road i was, but not quite, i was like in a parallel world for a bit.
Only 3 minutes in and we've already got someone searching for danger without any plan for what to do if they actually find it. This is going to be good. Lmao
True like if your power randomly cuts out at night don't go out unarmed it is common for intruders to cut the power at your breaker and knock you tf out when you open the door
Honestly, this video MORE THAN EVER makes me wish you did Video Games. Like seeing you talk about How To Beat Until Dawn without the limitations of the game would be great.
When you were elaborating about the eyes. It's straight up the old quote: Eyes rarely go in pairs. Usually they are equipped with a hundred teeth, a dozen claws and a digestive tract. Exactly in that order
The most unrealistic thing about this movie is a black man camping, finding a dead body and not immediately wanting to go home, then seeing a chick be possessed and not nope tf outta there instantly 😂
“If you and your friends where on a field trip and found yourselves in the territory of, not one, not two, but three murderous cryptids, what would you do” Honestly, at some point you gotta take it as a sign that, god doesn’t want you alive.😂😂😂😂
How to beat wendigo? Either show him a new ARG and run away while he's distracted or tell him to record a new volume of disturbing things found on the internet
What kind of Professor takes you out to a place where people frequently go missing or died Wouldn’t a normal professor take you to a science convention or somewhere with people around other than the woods?
He's trying to catch up with his big brother. They both dreamed of being famous biologists who catalogued the most rare creatures in the world. One day Oak, one day.
You'd think so, but no In middle school our teachers took us on a trip in the woods and a few things happened: A. We found a drunk guy in the middle of nowhere on some hills who literally looked as if he was dead B. We got lost without even being that deep in the woods C. Some kids were throwing stones at other kids (sure, at their bellies and legs, but still...) D. Some kids left early before we went deep into the woods while others disappeared as they took of on their own and only hours later we heard from them - they decided to visit some meadows or go home without telling anybody, so it was pretty much "A is gone.... oh u say they went home? Okay sure I'll trust you" And it wasn't even a big mountain or something, it was pretty tame So.... yeah, you'd think so, but no haha
1:05 Whoever decides to go investigate or piss it off is now an official offering in my mind. I woulda just about faced and turned off all the lights after locking and barricading the doors. Nope nope and nope. I’ll leave at dawn.
A general rule of thumb: Never go outside in unknown territory, be it forest or jungle. Lots of creepy crawlies come out at night to spin webs or generally hunt for food, and many of them can be considered dangerous to interact with. This place may not be Brazil, but it doesn't make it any less dangerous when going out at night.
I do appreciate that Chris, the one person being selfless, is the one to survive. Lilly may have waited for him, but probably only out of survivals sake and she already attempted to have them leave without a care about their friends. Marie cared more about having a necklace than report the body. Other white guy cared more about his own grades then doing the right thing. Rob cared more about his need to find big foot. And the professor showed his selfishness by making that trip in the first place.
The absolute best choice of background music, I was even sad when you changed it for a short period. Actually makes these death games sound a lot more serious.
2 things about the scene where the girl untied herself from the tree. First no don't untie yourself early while the man with a gun has it pointed at you yes wait for him to be distracted. Second when you are free yes run towards him aka the way you came to the clearing and not off in some random direction into the monster filled woods with no where to go.
Well untie yourself as soon as possible and pretend to still be bound, there's no benefit to remaining tied up. And she has no knowledge that there could be threats in any direction except the one she runs towards so unless she was going for the weapon or keys to the car ANY other direction puts where further from known danger.
Idk where Wendigos originated from but holy shit. Seeing them in games and hearing about them in little horror stories these things are no joke. I'd rather deal with hordes of the undead then these things
You would have a way better chance to survive a zombie horde then a wendigo if they attacked you house zombies might not even be able to get in but if the wendigo is hungry and it definitely will be it will get in
Wendigo is native american spirit tale in origin. Most likely a primitive tale to keep people selfless and more useful collectively. Basicly someone being stuck and driven by primal hunger to cannibalism would possibly be not perceived as logical back then, rather as evil spirit possession.
Once the Wendigos started hunting them they had no chance Wendigos are too fast, too strong and too stealthy to avoid Of course it depends on the Wendigos, every story they are in is different
A Wendigo was a supernatural evil spirit in first Nations mythology. The non-spirit form is mostly a modern take. Its main weapon was its ability to mind control its victims, make them commit cannibalism and, not shockingly, murder. As far as I know you could not defeat it only make it not come for you, as its mental powers kinda made a fight impossible. In some sense this movie got it pretty correct in portrayal.
At 27:43 since we know for a fact he attacks unprovoked the fact the bigfoot didn't reach forward and snap that mans neck like a twig is nothing shy of a miracle
It looks like he was a pet or something because the first time he saw the guy he didn’t kill him and he might have been protecting him from the night and when he roared Bigfoot came to his aid and fought for him
Honestly, you are so much better than other TH-camrs (I am mainly comparing you to Cinema Summary because you two are the biggest ones). I never really understood how he overtook you, you post videos a lot more frequently I like your humor a lot more and you explain way better. Hope you're doing well!
Cinema Summary has probably the worst “How to Beat” videos imo. Especially with “Spontaneous” which is him just speculating entire video and retelling plot. Nerd Explains at least offers way to solve stuff and in the end of the video has very good summing up of the video.
Damn that moments when you've watched every nerd explains video and you think you've found a new one you missed. Only to remember within 5 seconds you've watched this one:(
I like that they actually look like Wendigos rather than the wechuge you see them so often confused with. Wechuge being the one with antlers and glowing eyes.
Oddly enough, that add read was probably the most convincing read I’ve come across. I’m not going to buy any form of powder I put in water, but you had me thinking about it
Honestly if I was out in the woods where both Bigfoot and wendigos are believed to be inhabited I'd choose the massive 2 bore double barrel shotgun over a hunting rifle with a scope since it could probably kill either one or at the very least wound them badly enough to force them into retreating and leave me alone long enough to get the hell out of there safely
This is the only movie where Nerd Explains would not have to worry about surviving. The spirit of the Forest would be bowing down for him as he's the Alpha when it comes to Cannibalism.
7:19 the .577NE would still be around 12 to 14lbs The thinking man's option is the long action AR10 chambered in 375 or 416 Ruger for a better blend of dangerous game stopping power and maneuverability as unlike the Nitro express the 375 ruger is designed around an 18 inch barrel
This is possibly the best Ad break I have ever witnessed in any youtube video ever. Good job, I am not getting the free sample because I am not fast enough of course. But maybe the 10% will come in handy.
I mean, I think dying in the phase of planning your attack gets you into Valhalla. Sure, you're not in combat, but as long as you die with your weapon in hand as you make decisions to do a god's work, I think that counts. May Odin himself comment if I'm wrong on this.
Tonight, I hope your blanket feels so cozy that you feel embraced by it as you tuck yourself in, that you feel so comfortable and at ease in your bed that you sleep with not one worry in your mind and no nightmares through the night. Wishing you the most beautiful dreams and that you wake up feeling completely rested so you can have a good day. You are so brave for taking care of yourself, resting and for facing each day. Remember that.
I love how the wendigo,reality manipulating cannibal demons have to try and hunt while they,most often seen as the apex predator,have a stronger enemy they can't really kill or possess,the sasquatch
That's the best-written ad I've ever heard on this site and if I had money, I'd do it just for that. The whole thing was a ride I could imagine in my head like I was listening to an audiobook.
That ad read was beautiful. I'm noticing a few creators are getting to be more entertaining with their reads, and I think it honestly works. Think I'm gonna try it if it ships to the UK...
considering at the start they can quite literally see the antlers its either a deer in which case theirs no reason to track it down since its not anything important or a moose which you dont want to track down because it is dangerous
I haven't seen the movie but from the description, my theory is that Bigfoot was a poor soul possessed by the spirit of flesh but fought off the infection to keep some of his sanity to become a sort of Anti-hero
ALSO,one of the cryptids at the start had a clear antler part of it’s head in the dark,it has a slight light on it showing the antlers,if it’s massive and has antlers just stay inside Another also,how does a cryptozoologist not know wendigo can imitate a human’s voice to trick people,my god
I prefer the supernatural lore for wendigos where after someone eats enough human flesh (while starving) it becomes the only thing they can eat, they maintain their human level intelligence, but lose the ability to speak over time as they only focus on feeding, the only way to kill them (besides starving them out, which would take tens of years) is with fire.
I think if Lilly had warned them about everret and made noise in the bathroom to prevent getting taken and they had the gun and barricaded one room instead of the whole house they could survive till morning between the 4 of them.
I like how whenever he talks about what supplies they should’ve brought, it’s always like “yeah these college students should’ve pulled up with full military tech and a tactical nuclear warhead just in case”
New movie idea: a person finishes watching all NerdExplain’s videos and ends up in a deadly trap that incorporates the knowledge learned from the videos
I’m a minute and a half in and they see eyes in the dark that are kinda high up and something big enough to knock over trash cans… and don’t immediately lock themselves in out of fear of the probably bear outside? Edit: 3 minutes in and I am shown to be correct in my guess that bear eyes shine like that.
For anyone confused why a bear is better to run into than a moose just remember that moose are as tall as a bus and as long as a car. An animal that weighs that much with the horns they have could absolutely annihilate you (honestly wendigos would get destroyed by a moose and big foot wouldn't get off so easy either.) That's just in the forest, hippos and rhinos are much heavier and scarier (not to mention things like great whites or orcas.) Hell a whale could accidentally turn you into jely just by speaking so we can lump them on this list. If you think about it we don't really need supernatural creatures because the real world is already super scary and full of things constantly ready to kill us.
a bear is also a predator that doesnt want to put too much energy in so you can back away and it would leave you alone a moose would still come after you

A lot of that also applies to skinwalkers. All I know is that one side of has some Native American and the other has some proper Irish. And both sides come with stories to stay out of the woods at night.
Yea its just that, a superstition, now granted i aint bout to be doin it at night in the forest lmfao, too tactically minded for that, wouldnt wanna give away my location, but at the same time i wouldnt be out there at apl without at least three guns, my 357, semi auto shotgun, and my lovely ak107, hell racking off the magnum like three times would make anyone or anythint stop and think for a moment hmmm is this guna hurt? And at least i can fight back, even if its pointless
@@themanwithnoname1839Where the hell did you get an AK-107? Assuming you live in the US, there's no way you were able to buy an AK-107 or the civilian version (SR-1) as I'm pretty sure Kalashnikov only made one production run because it was a huge commercial flop. Not to mention, it's a pain to get newer Russian rifles intended for military use (I mean fully built in Russia and shipped overseas. Excluding parts kits)
17:42 That's creepy, I live near the Uwharrie national forest, and one night I was walking home from my mom's house and as I stepped up onto my porch this ball of dirt hit me right in the face. Knocked my lens out of my glasses and I had to run back to my mom's and she had to put a flax seed in my eye to remove some debris.
I never thought it could have been thrown. Just thought it got catapulted somehow...
Creepy!
Woah, that’s creepy
I was in Iceland once. And i experienced the 'hidden people (Huldufolk)" It's a long story. I did not actually see the creatures, but i did hear them and it made me rly scared. It was like i was on the same road i was, but not quite, i was like in a parallel world for a bit.
@@someguy7629 Fascinating! Stay safe out there. :)
Only 3 minutes in and we've already got someone searching for danger without any plan for what to do if they actually find it. This is going to be good. Lmao
True like if your power randomly cuts out at night don't go out unarmed it is common for intruders to cut the power at your breaker and knock you tf out when you open the door
Honestly, this video MORE THAN EVER makes me wish you did Video Games. Like seeing you talk about How To Beat Until Dawn without the limitations of the game would be great.
It’s like your content is getting better and better with each new vid, especially how you advertise your sponsors
When you were elaborating about the eyes. It's straight up the old quote:
Eyes rarely go in pairs. Usually they are equipped with a hundred teeth, a dozen claws and a digestive tract. Exactly in that order
The most unrealistic thing about this movie is a black man camping, finding a dead body and not immediately wanting to go home, then seeing a chick be possessed and not nope tf outta there instantly 😂
This channel taught me so much about how to deal with getting kidnapped and escape techniques. Many thanks.
Now the real difficult part is remembering it in those high stress situations, and then actually doing them.
“If you and your friends where on a field trip and found yourselves in the territory of, not one, not two, but three murderous cryptids, what would you do”
Honestly, at some point you gotta take it as a sign that, god doesn’t want you alive.😂😂😂😂
How to beat wendigo? Either show him a new ARG and run away while he's distracted or tell him to record a new volume of disturbing things found on the internet
Take my like you son of a gun
No my friend he's a wendiGOON
the wendigang has been defeated
Οr tell it that there's a giant nearby
I think you mean wendihoes
What kind of Professor takes you out to a place where people frequently go missing or died
Wouldn’t a normal professor take you to a science convention or somewhere with people around other than the woods?
He's trying to catch up with his big brother. They both dreamed of being famous biologists who catalogued the most rare creatures in the world. One day Oak, one day.
You'd think so, but no
In middle school our teachers took us on a trip in the woods and a few things happened:
A. We found a drunk guy in the middle of nowhere on some hills who literally looked as if he was dead
B. We got lost without even being that deep in the woods
C. Some kids were throwing stones at other kids (sure, at their bellies and legs, but still...)
D. Some kids left early before we went deep into the woods while others disappeared as they took of on their own and only hours later we heard from them - they decided to visit some meadows or go home without telling anybody, so it was pretty much "A is gone.... oh u say they went home? Okay sure I'll trust you"
And it wasn't even a big mountain or something, it was pretty tame
So.... yeah, you'd think so, but no haha
Horror Professors just be like that
1:05 Whoever decides to go investigate or piss it off is now an official offering in my mind. I woulda just about faced and turned off all the lights after locking and barricading the doors. Nope nope and nope. I’ll leave at dawn.
A general rule of thumb: Never go outside in unknown territory, be it forest or jungle. Lots of creepy crawlies come out at night to spin webs or generally hunt for food, and many of them can be considered dangerous to interact with. This place may not be Brazil, but it doesn't make it any less dangerous when going out at night.
It took place in upstate New York.
I do appreciate that Chris, the one person being selfless, is the one to survive. Lilly may have waited for him, but probably only out of survivals sake and she already attempted to have them leave without a care about their friends. Marie cared more about having a necklace than report the body. Other white guy cared more about his own grades then doing the right thing. Rob cared more about his need to find big foot. And the professor showed his selfishness by making that trip in the first place.
It feels like you are more likely to find a RL Sasquatch or Wendigo than to find a smart camper/woodland traveler in a horror movie
The absolute best choice of background music, I was even sad when you changed it for a short period. Actually makes these death games sound a lot more serious.
I thought I was only one
but kinda settled with it as change is inevitable
2 things about the scene where the girl untied herself from the tree. First no don't untie yourself early while the man with a gun has it pointed at you yes wait for him to be distracted. Second when you are free yes run towards him aka the way you came to the clearing and not off in some random direction into the monster filled woods with no where to go.
Well untie yourself as soon as possible and pretend to still be bound, there's no benefit to remaining tied up. And she has no knowledge that there could be threats in any direction except the one she runs towards so unless she was going for the weapon or keys to the car ANY other direction puts where further from known danger.
Idk where Wendigos originated from but holy shit. Seeing them in games and hearing about them in little horror stories these things are no joke. I'd rather deal with hordes of the undead then these things
You would have a way better chance to survive a zombie horde then a wendigo if they attacked you house zombies might not even be able to get in but if the wendigo is hungry and it definitely will be it will get in
Unlike a zombie a wendigo keeps its intelligence so yeah you're f*** either way
Cod zombies start
FETCH ME THEIR SOUL’S!
I remember it was a native American tale
Wendigo is native american spirit tale in origin. Most likely a primitive tale to keep people selfless and more useful collectively. Basicly someone being stuck and driven by primal hunger to cannibalism would possibly be not perceived as logical back then, rather as evil spirit possession.
"GOD DAMNIT" had me laughing, because I like when you explain supernatural videos more. Good shit
“Nearby, jake steps in shit and falls beside a discount skellinton from spirit holloween”
That shit cracked me up so badly 😂😂
Once the Wendigos started hunting them they had no chance
Wendigos are too fast, too strong and too stealthy to avoid
Of course it depends on the Wendigos, every story they are in is different
For a moment I thought it was "Until Dawn".
Same
@@crem-crem4070 Tho It would be cool if there were channels like this for videogames.
@@krunoslavkovacec1842 I was thinking the same but I’m not sure how viable it is
@@krunoslavkovacec1842 there probably is, just look on TH-cam.
That would have been better. Such an amazing game. The Quarry is pretty solid, but it's just not the same 😕
No thoughts, head empty, only three cryptids fighting each other
A Wendigo was a supernatural evil spirit in first Nations mythology. The non-spirit form is mostly a modern take. Its main weapon was its ability to mind control its victims, make them commit cannibalism and, not shockingly, murder. As far as I know you could not defeat it only make it not come for you, as its mental powers kinda made a fight impossible. In some sense this movie got it pretty correct in portrayal.
I hate spirits
@Cr00k3d M@n Still need to go Emperor of Mankind on their butts, we shouldnt be bending over backwards cuz some malformed ghost fart is a bully.
@Sebastian of current thing is valid we need to tax them spirits! Living in our reality rent free! Reeee
Their weakness is fire….
@@CasualCasimir Pokémon go BRr
Bigfoot did tell them to leave.. I'd argue he wasn't an evil bigfoot..
At 27:43 since we know for a fact he attacks unprovoked the fact the bigfoot didn't reach forward and snap that mans neck like a twig is nothing shy of a miracle
It looks like he was a pet or something because the first time he saw the guy he didn’t kill him and he might have been protecting him from the night and when he roared Bigfoot came to his aid and fought for him
*Sees rock gets thrown at window in the middle of the night. *
Chris: “hmm must have been the wind”
Honestly, you are so much better than other TH-camrs (I am mainly comparing you to Cinema Summary because you two are the biggest ones). I never really understood how he overtook you, you post videos a lot more frequently I like your humor a lot more and you explain way better.
Hope you're doing well!
Plus Cinema Summary's voice is kinda irritating
Agreed. Cinema just doesn't do a good job with break downs or strategy
I mostly like Cinema Summary for the Japanese and Korean death game videos. Those are really interesting to me.
Nerd Explains used to post less frequently, so maybe that's why
Cinema Summary has probably the worst “How to Beat” videos imo. Especially with “Spontaneous” which is him just speculating entire video and retelling plot. Nerd Explains at least offers way to solve stuff and in the end of the video has very good summing up of the video.
I don't know if it's just me or not, but I just love to watch "How to Beat" and "Movie Recap" videos. Idk where they came from, but I'm glad they did.
Yes! A new video, man I love watching your videos, I always feel like I learn something. Anyways, keep releasing these amazing videos!
hmmm.... feels like a bot
oh nvm he got different comments
@@deathseeker7994 nah im not a bot man, just a person who really likes Nerds videos 😅
What in the fuck do u learn from horror fiction movies lmao
Is it just me or does anyone miss nerd explains old background music? I feel like that music made him more unique compared to other channels
Damn that moments when you've watched every nerd explains video and you think you've found a new one you missed. Only to remember within 5 seconds you've watched this one:(
Never thought I'd see the day that Nerd Explains calls me a "Gullible lil' sailor"
I like that they actually look like Wendigos rather than the wechuge you see them so often confused with. Wechuge being the one with antlers and glowing eyes.
Finally, someone tells it like it is on that Wolves are not scary predators.
She looks back to see he's be replaced by the band member from KISS.
Just laughing my ass off! Absolutely sublime!
Oddly enough, that add read was probably the most convincing read I’ve come across. I’m not going to buy any form of powder I put in water, but you had me thinking about it
Honestly if I was out in the woods where both Bigfoot and wendigos are believed to be inhabited I'd choose the massive 2 bore double barrel shotgun over a hunting rifle with a scope since it could probably kill either one or at the very least wound them badly enough to force them into retreating and leave me alone long enough to get the hell out of there safely
A horror movie with a final boy? And not a final girl? Revolutionary!
27:46 something about a Bigfoot knowing how to do a neck snap is making me giggle so much for some reason.
This is the only movie where Nerd Explains would not have to worry about surviving. The spirit of the Forest would be bowing down for him as he's the Alpha when it comes to Cannibalism.
If you are greedy I will corrupt your soul!
I will gladly kill and eat all my friends if it keeps me alive.
Understood, safe travels fellow monster.
7:19 the .577NE would still be around 12 to 14lbs
The thinking man's option is the long action AR10 chambered in 375 or 416 Ruger for a better blend of dangerous game stopping power and maneuverability as unlike the Nitro express the 375 ruger is designed around an 18 inch barrel
Or a .458 Socom which would allow a shorter barrel
Dayum, after seeing big foot going against a horde of Wendigos in this scenes I might just watch the actual movie lol
This is possibly the best Ad break I have ever witnessed in any youtube video ever. Good job, I am not getting the free sample because I am not fast enough of course. But maybe the 10% will come in handy.
That sponsor segment transition was honestly pretty funny
This channel is P R O D U C I N G videos. Like a lot of them. I can only say that I appreciate.
I mean, I think dying in the phase of planning your attack gets you into Valhalla. Sure, you're not in combat, but as long as you die with your weapon in hand as you make decisions to do a god's work, I think that counts. May Odin himself comment if I'm wrong on this.
A little black raven has told me of your knowledge of the eternal paradise of the warriors. You shall be rewarded handsomely with a thumbs up!
I think you’re thinking of Sovngarde
@@seeklaliugulara2201 Hey! That’s Only In Tamriel

Tonight, I hope your blanket feels so cozy that you feel embraced by it as you tuck yourself in, that you feel so comfortable and at ease in your bed that you sleep with not one worry in your mind and no nightmares through the night. Wishing you the most beautiful dreams and that you wake up feeling completely rested so you can have a good day. You are so brave for taking care of yourself, resting and for facing each day. Remember that.

Thanks bro, goodnight
U too 😶
14:21 POV: You failed the quick time event (QTE) in the Quarry in the last scene as Laura lol-
Tbf tho this movie might be interesting if it becomes interactive games
I wonder what the cryptids in that forest would do if one of them had the world's brightest flashlight.
I care not if I’m shouting into a void, I must request: please do green room!!!!! The scenario is perfect!
I love how in this both bigfoot and wendigos exist and bigfoot terrifies them
Your delivery is so entertaining. Watch from start to finish. Didn't even skip the sponsorship ads. Your Inception must be working.
you’re actually hilarious 😭 23:45
I love how the wendigo,reality manipulating cannibal demons have to try and hunt while they,most often seen as the apex predator,have a stronger enemy they can't really kill or possess,the sasquatch
"WITH THE DAWN, COMES THE LIGHT OF BIGFOOT" OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR!
I'm here still waiting for Hannibal to become the first urban Wendigo
That's the best-written ad I've ever heard on this site and if I had money, I'd do it just for that. The whole thing was a ride I could imagine in my head like I was listening to an audiobook.
Who in the heck would go take a closer look on shining eyes in the dark?Even todlers would run back inside crying
That ad read was beautiful. I'm noticing a few creators are getting to be more entertaining with their reads, and I think it honestly works. Think I'm gonna try it if it ships to the UK...
considering at the start they can quite literally see the antlers its either a deer in which case theirs no reason to track it down since its not anything important or a moose which you dont want to track down because it is dangerous
The locals are smart enough to stay out of the forest when these things become active. So it is not a problem to them.
I haven't seen the movie but from the description, my theory is that Bigfoot was a poor soul possessed by the spirit of flesh but fought off the infection to keep some of his sanity to become a sort of Anti-hero
1:16 this is how you know he has never lived near/in a forest before
“The shining eyes don’t belong to riddick” 😂
ngl that was the best energy drink add i've ever seen
ALSO,one of the cryptids at the start had a clear antler part of it’s head in the dark,it has a slight light on it showing the antlers,if it’s massive and has antlers just stay inside
Another also,how does a cryptozoologist not know wendigo can imitate a human’s voice to trick people,my god
Outsmart any cryptid by never leaving your home.
I love that your dropping more videos lately and the variety that comes with them, thankyou AND I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!
I prefer the supernatural lore for wendigos where after someone eats enough human flesh (while starving) it becomes the only thing they can eat, they maintain their human level intelligence, but lose the ability to speak over time as they only focus on feeding, the only way to kill them (besides starving them out, which would take tens of years) is with fire.
13:42 "Exposure can lead to liver function"
I'm no doctor but I think that's what livers are supposed to do.
Never had a video make me wanna order something so bad....and this ( among other things ) is why your my new favorite TH-camr
I think if Lilly had warned them about everret and made noise in the bathroom to prevent getting taken and they had the gun and barricaded one room instead of the whole house they could survive till morning between the 4 of them.
I like how whenever he talks about what supplies they should’ve brought, it’s always like “yeah these college students should’ve pulled up with full military tech and a tactical nuclear warhead just in case”
New movie idea: a person finishes watching all NerdExplain’s videos and ends up in a deadly trap that incorporates the knowledge learned from the videos
“How would you beat them” The American way hails of gunfire, flamethrower and a fuck that attitude
It’s weird that these wendigos aren’t super fast like wendigos are said to be, and they look more like aliens then wendigos.
Big Foot was friendly? and its just never explained lol? thats kinda insane and funny
I’m a minute and a half in and they see eyes in the dark that are kinda high up and something big enough to knock over trash cans… and don’t immediately lock themselves in out of fear of the probably bear outside?
Edit: 3 minutes in and I am shown to be correct in my guess that bear eyes shine like that.
Ahh so excited for a how to beat wrong turn!! And thanks for the gamer supps rec! Love your vids!!!!
I loved this movie when I watched it, I thought it was a fun story and it had some real spooky timing, and the ending music was real good too.
Running into cannibal demona is the worst thing to happen to you in thw woods, but a pissed off moose is a very close second.
I would love to see more cryptid related stuff... I think they are really cool personally 🤷
you're the best how to survive channel man. your narration is so good 😂😂😂😂
For anyone confused why a bear is better to run into than a moose just remember that moose are as tall as a bus and as long as a car. An animal that weighs that much with the horns they have could absolutely annihilate you (honestly wendigos would get destroyed by a moose and big foot wouldn't get off so easy either.)
That's just in the forest, hippos and rhinos are much heavier and scarier (not to mention things like great whites or orcas.)
Hell a whale could accidentally turn you into jely just by speaking so we can lump them on this list.
If you think about it we don't really need supernatural creatures because the real world is already super scary and full of things constantly ready to kill us.
a bear is also a predator that doesnt want to put too much energy in so you can back away and it would leave you alone a moose would still come after you
The shining eyes dont belong to riddick"😂
