you missed the fact that there used to be multiple cities inside the amazon but they quickly disappeared, no one knows why and we cant find them because the jungle covered them quickly and densely.
@@LilYee-vs2sv if your suggesting contact with Europeans, thats part of the mystery, the cities where already disappearing before Europeans made contact with nearby settlements
I’m noticing a theme of increasing closeness. First, it was space, then the ocean, then Antarctica, now the Rainforest, what’s next, Psychology? After all, Tugg is getting gradually closer to us…
@@Kody_Rulez I didn't even notice you misspelled anything. I thought you meant what you originally had. I wasn't correcting you, I meant Tugg would create a video of scary words he legitimately thought shouldn't exist. 🙂
An even scarier fact: the Amazon is the single most important forest on the planet and in the last 50 years over 20% of it has been cut down and burnt. The breaking point of the forest is said to be 25% of deforestation, and when that happens the balance of the forest will be so off that it might deforest itself. The amazon also literally creates its own climate (the trees and other plants siphon water and release it as gas) and it is the reason its always raining there. So IF the forest were to be destroyed it would affect the climates of more than 10 ocuntries in ways we don't know yet. TLDR: 20% of the earths biggest forest gone in 50 years and it might destroy itself and alter the climates around it if 25% of it gets destroyed.
@@poulinhp ah, that "screw you I got mine / well you're gonna die anyway so what's the point of anyone else living past the point in which you perish" mindset.
They asked a tribal man that recently exposed himself to civilization,(due to cartels and loggers murdering members of his tribe) what he was afraid of and he said "the only thing i am scared of is a jaguar".
Tugg is gonna manage to make literally every part of nature sound horrifying and make me spend my days always indoors until I die of a vitamin D deficiency.
You mean, vitamin D-ficiency 😅 (I'm so sorry for this joke. I'd like to personally apologize to every comedian for my horrific, horrible, awfully bad joke)
The Amazon has sharks, also purple spiders. there are just a lot of things there and I own a lot of tarantulas originally native there and I do breed them. Just so you know at least 50 or so Mascara bird eating tarantulas are going to be coming into the world soon. Males are purple and bright colors tend to be as a warning, the hair is so itchy that it makes me wanna die btw.
Brazilian here, yep. All that checks out. I would also like to add a fish called "Pacu", it weighs 25 kilograms, the same weight as an Olympic Barbell Weight Plate. Yes, one of the heaviest plates they use to test the strength of an Olympic lifter. That's how much the fucker weighs. The reason why this is scary is because the fish is also known as "Testicle Devourer" so do with that what you will. The river also has piranhas and flat headed sharks so when you call your travel agent make sure to pack swimming clothes. Also 11:27 I knew the giant centipede existed but I didn't know they were a goddamn Lethal Company enemy. Pack a shovel or a road sign with those swimming clothes.
Holy shit im from Mato Grosso and never heard Pacu being called that, there is an urban legend in my city tho that a woman lost her hand once, eaten by a jaú when she was washing some clothes at the river.
Well, bless you for finding a way to get the word out. My Christian God must have spared you just for that purpose. I'm kidding, but much respect for finding a way out.
I just imagined an old heavily bearded guy with a deep raspy voice turn back to me and say "lets go learn some shit" and then shoots a laser into the amazon rainforest. 8:15
Hey tugg glad you made this video I went to the Amazon when I was 13 and it was nuts. There are trees in the Amazon with spikes on them and their seeds are spike balls that literally explode, like a nail bomb spraying razor sharp wooden spikes everywhere
And you made it back. What a shame! The lengths some people will go to to disappoint their parents is truly remarkable. (I'm kidding and a little jealous tbh.)
yeah thats a Sandbox tree, when its fruit fall out of trees they are very fucking dry so they break open with enough pressure to launch pieces of itself(and seeds) far enough across the rainforest that more can grow and not compete for resources with others of its kind
As someone who's special interest is ants, I morbidly love it when people learn about the insane pain a bullet ant can cause. There's a reason why they're my favorite ant species And what I think is funny, it's not even lethal and there's even a whole tradition in the Sateré Mawé community to intentionally get stung by one as an initiation into adulthood.
@@fable4735 YES!! I love them!! I love the way they cut up and carry pieces of leaves. I also LOVE how they're little farmers! They use the leaves they collect to use as fertilizer for farms of fungi that they use to feed their larva. They're such cool little fellas
"The Goliath Bird Eater Spider is the biggest spider--" THAT YOU KNOW OF! There's so many undiscovered animals and shit in the rainforest, how confident can we be that the scientist's lasers have found all the spiders, Tugg?
I am 100% sure that the giant centipede and Goliath bird eater are only half the size of some other kinds of even more giant centipedes and even more Goliath bird eaters
There’s also I think it’s called the Giant Huntsman spider, it’s arguably either the same size as the Goliath 1’ leg span or possibly reported to even be Bigger. They’re horrifying looking too look it up, huntsman species are highkey my nightmare spider, just from their looks and leg shapes they’re scary af
3:11 fun fact: my dad went to the Amazon forest as a rural doctor (Artículo 8 aquí en Venezuela) and sometimes people came with wounds of arrows with this poison, which was INCREDIBLY dangerous because the person stops breathing. There the only option is do assisted ventilation and wait to worn it out, but super effective to hunt monkeys ;)
How would the monkey be safe to consume after being shot with enough poison to kill a man? Genuinely curious, like is there a style of preparation that makes it safe or??
@@massdysfunkton No surprise here, actually 1) Even the slightest warming could be enough for messing up the chemical features of some substances. So I don't think it's necessary to invent some fancy ways of cooking. 2) The poison within monkey's body doesn't have to stay intact as if it was in container. It has to go through chemical reactions. Suppose you made monkey to drink some liquor. Will you become drunk if you consume its meat after that? Probably not, since the alcohol already reacted in its flesh. 3) Most importantly, we are not even sure those monkeys were supposed to be eaten. They could be hunted for sport (which is sad) or just exterminated after trying to steal crops or fruits (which is reasonable).
@@d.whillmar1740 The actual reason, for anyone that might be interested, is that venom needs to enter your bloodstream in order to affect you, so eating an animal that was shot by a venomous dart (not poison, the monkeys were never poisoned) won't actually do anything.
@@d.whillmar1740 I can only say that I’ve never heard about this specific tribe my dad was ( yanomami) that they hunted for sport, it’s actually the opposite. They hunted monkeys only to eat and only ate what they killed, so they didn’t eat anything they themselves raised. There’s been many cases where the monkey they hunted had a baby and they just keep it an raise it, no thoughts on eating it, and once they were given chickens and they just kept them around.

In regards to the Goliath Birdeater, birds don't actually make up a big part of their diet. They only really eat insects, but have been known to eat frogs and small rodents. They HAVE eaten birds, but it's a rare occasion.
I've held a birdeater, it was smaller so it might be a different one and not the goliath one, sadly it wasn't in the rainforest it was in a zoo, despite seeing this video twice I still want to go there
arachnophobia/entomophobia warning from 9:30 to basically the rest of the video thanks im going to hibernate in my 1-bedroom apartment until the outside world stops makin crazy horrifying shit :) (all the same, protect the rainforests and natural places, y'all. shit's important to the planet or whatever)
I did not see this comment until after I saw creature #2 which made me scream and drop my phone on the floor. I was not prepared for that at all even though I know that they have giant spiders there 😬😬😬
The rainforest is like a video game, where after you pass it, you get more a difficult version. First it’s levels like Canopy & Massive River, but in Rainforest+ you get Pitch Dark & Sub Terrain river. Then in Master Mode you get the boiling river level!
If the rainforest is like a video game 🎮 then it’s one of if not the deadliest video game on the face of the earth 🌎. you go in there, you have a solid one out of three chance of not coming out 😅
I was certain he was going to mention the caimans and how the jaguars hunt them. I'd also love a video of Tugg finding out about the tribe that puts a ton of bullet ants into gloves and then wears them in a ceremony.
For those afraid of the dark I am here with words of encouragement - You are not afraid of the dark, you are afraid of what is IN the dark. That is perfectly rational fear!
No, I'm afraid of the dark dark, not what's in it. You wanna think about how horrifying it would be to open your eyes and see nothing? To never be able to see the stars again? and what's worse, imagine your family/partner coming home with a new cat, and you're never able to see what colour it is or what patterns it has? Horrible. I'm not afraid of the things in the dark. I'm afraid of THE DARK. For all I care a killer clown can be sitting in the corner of the room. I'm not going to care. If I wake up unable to see, we're gonna have problems.
My favorite thing about ol tuggaroonie , outside the fact that he presents all of his information like he's having a panic attack because he probably is, is the fact that he presents all of his information as if he wasn't the one who looked it up in the first place. He reacts to information like it's the first time he's seen it and it feels genuine every single time. But the reason I keep coming back is his fast-paced frantic delivery that makes me feel comfortable.
Me and my best friend have this thing called "tugg time" where we watch one of your videos everyday during our lunch period, it helps us get throught the day. Thank you!
I live in the Amazon and can confirm that we will die by an unknown things every time. But raiforest has a lot of indigenous people that didnt need to go through school to learn shit, and if you go to the forest with them, you will avoid most awful things, and even if you are attacked/affected by some of the deadly stuff, they will give you some plants (that can probably also cure cancer), do a dance, sing, pull some smoke and youre good to go.
When I was at the Amazon our guide said we shouldn’t touch the small branches close to rivers because that was this pointy thing they called a ‘sponge’ that can instantly give you a deadly alergic reaction
I Once had to survey a bullet ant nest to check what they were bringing in and taking out. In the middle of the night in the rainforest, having to turn off the light between surveys. I started to ponder if I should continue my path as a biologist
crazy to think that other planets somewhere have a similar amazon rainforest but because their enviroment has a lower gravity and its less oxygen rich the creatures just look like demons. Avatar literally exists somewhere and you will not convince me otherwise!
Fun Fact: Bullet ants live in parts of the USA such as Texas. They have their own type called the Texas Bullet Ant. I unfortunately learned this through my grandmother who decided it was a good idea to make a bet with my great aunt to see who could stand in a bullet ant pile the longest :).
You've got this youtube thing down tugg! Good stuff. Whatever you are doing, keep putting the love in and good work! Good God you could make this your career if you haven't already
As a Brazilian, I am so happy about this video. However, it deserves a part two, bc the real dangers are the river otters and the exploding trees. Also, fun fact, jaguars hunt and eat crocodiles so that's not scary at all. But fr i love all of ur vids
i went to the amazon rainforest like two years ago and i straight up discovered a new species of tree 💀💀 it is a lovely place though, ignoring the mafias that keep jaguars as pets in a mini zoo but oh well
On the animals bit you forgot the candiru, which is a tiny fish that can detect your urine and swim up and lodge itself in your urethra.....lovely stuff
I'm Brazilian, but like, from the farthest state from the Amazon forest. I live in awe of the people who live there (and they're so cool too, like culturally speaking)
The Amazon river's currents are so strong it keeps going like a mile into the ocean. It takes 3 kilometers for the river water to slow down ennough to start to mix with the salt walter... and there's pirates sailing on that river
Hey tugger, yeah jaguars are no joke. When i was in Guatemala, i had to take a dump at night and didnt wanna wake everyonee in the camper so i went to the bathrooms outside. I saw two pairs of eyes watching me walk the 100 feet and the guys working there told me i almost died lol
Fun fact: the goliath bird eater is the largest spider ever, that we know of. There was another ancient "spider" that was bigger but it ended up being a sea scorpion iirc.
tugg has honestly become and inspiration to me. the amount of research he puts into every single fucking video... i want to have the executive function that he has
During my time in the Amazon I did not get eaten but did almost get eaten and for whatever goddamn reason our guide decided to tail a fucking jaguar which was fun. And then got us flipped by a caiman, which is just a giant aggressive crocodile.
This was fun and horrifying. There's a boiling river?! Look, if you told me a river in Ohio was boiling because it was on fire due to pollution, I'd believe you, but this thing is just naturally boiling?! What the what?! Love your videos, you're awesome!!
Oh, you forgot about the Giant otters, wich are basically water jaguars that live in packs and are super aggressive, like, if they catch you chilling too close to them they will fuck you up just for the sake of it.
first video to start off the night, so I don’t lose my sanity in this over night shift. Three cheers for Tucker for simply just uploading at a decent time frame on the regular I’d go into blind battle for this man if 1 person likes this
Those quicksand photos are in fact a fetish thing. It's kind of baffling that one of my greatest irrational childhood fears is something people wack it to
3:52 Tugg.... It's a rainforest, of course it will flood. It's called RAINforest, the thick forest INVITES rain, rainforests are one of a few variables that influence the earth's climates and weather. If you create a new forest, you will create a new weather pattern like that one Indian guy did.
Holy shit that last picture was pure horror, like something out of the movie "The Thing". Love your videos man, they keep me up at night which is actually a bad thing but still, you're awesome.
The boiling river is so hot it can cook a cow If it fell in. Which is terrifying... But not as terrifying as the fact that the boiling river is SO HOT that if you wanted to eat that cow it wouldn't just be overdone, but BURNT
He'll lose his shit with the part about how we know so much about the food chain in the U.S. was from Yellowstone kicking us in the balls when we killed too many wolves. It changed how rivers flow... cause we hunted wolves..... oh and the colorful boiling ponds, etc bodies of water that people die in every year, the out of control bear population that yogi bear tried to warn us about feeding, and the fact tourist walk anywhere near bison assuming nothing could ever or will ever go wrong... Yellowstone is unique in its flavor of nad kicking glory
I'm so glad I found your yt I watch your tik toks to fall asleep but now I can just these videos and not have to scroll 😭 your videos are so informative and I love your content ❤️❤️
Guys the Amazon Rainforest is a perfect example of what would happen if we give a whole half continent good land, heck ton of rain, some greedy trees, and a lot of time and isolation

But raiforest has a lot of indigenous people that didnt need to go through school to learn shit, and if you go to the forest with them, you will avoid most awful things, and even if you are attacked/affected by some of the deadly stuff, they will give you some plants (that can probably also cure cancer), do a dance, sing, pull some smoke and youre good to go.
As usual the horror in his voice when he talks about horrifying creatures and terrible places is just so damn entertaining please don't ever change
When I was at the Amazon our guide said we shouldn’t touch the small branches close to rivers because that was this pointy thing they called a ‘sponge’ that can instantly give you a deadly alergic reaction
Freshwater sponges, not sure about allergic reactions thought. Apparently they are a nice haven for the Amazon’s way too many species of catfish
10:05 I love how you slipped in the word “babe” 😂
6:34 wait untill he finds out about sewers😂
🤣
2 things terrify me about the Amazon, giant bugs and giant parasites that swim into holes
Look up the Candiru fish!
Oh, so you like Pacu? It isnt either of those, but it likes to eat testicles :)
No!
As a Brazilian I can say I’m proud of our giant deadly forest
If not deadly then not brazilian babyyy
As a Peruvian, I can say the same.
I Once had to survey a bullet ant nest to check what they were bringing in and taking out. In the middle of the night in the rainforest, having to turn off the light between surveys. I started to ponder if I should continue my path as a biologist
crazy to think that other planets somewhere have a similar amazon rainforest but because their enviroment has a lower gravity and its less oxygen rich the creatures just look like demons. Avatar literally exists somewhere and you will not convince me otherwise!
I love how tugg puts music to Alvin Flames in every description
9:39 felt the hairs on my leg when this showed up and jumped
Fun Fact: Bullet ants live in parts of the USA such as Texas. They have their own type called the Texas Bullet Ant. I unfortunately learned this through my grandmother who decided it was a good idea to make a bet with my great aunt to see who could stand in a bullet ant pile the longest :).
Ive been watching the channel since like 300k subs and for some reason this line goes SO HARD. Best line Tugg has said yet. 1:10
You've got this youtube thing down tugg! Good stuff. Whatever you are doing, keep putting the love in and good work!
Good God you could make this your career if you haven't already
Love the direction your new videos have been going, learning about horrifying things has never been more fun!
The amount of emphasis he put into "bats off the fucking wall" was inspirational. Absolute banger way to end a video.
11:06 Pog red panda
As a Brazilian, I have to say... spot on. I've been to the Amazon's, and good god it's so easy to get clapped.
9:18 Normal Jim! You’re killing me Tugg
Oh lord. “Normal Jim” has me rolling
9:00 wait until you find out electric eels arent even eels, theyre knifefish, which are closer related to catfish and carp than to actual eels
As a Brazilian, I am so happy about this video. However, it deserves a part two, bc the real dangers are the river otters and the exploding trees. Also, fun fact, jaguars hunt and eat crocodiles so that's not scary at all. But fr i love all of ur vids
i went to the amazon rainforest like two years ago and i straight up discovered a new species of tree 💀💀 it is a lovely place though, ignoring the mafias that keep jaguars as pets in a mini zoo but oh well
5:34 dude that have me a heart attack
Exactly what I was gonna say😂
the Amazon *RIVER*
why did he do that??
Because hes tugg@@cORTHEX
On the animals bit you forgot the candiru, which is a tiny fish that can detect your urine and swim up and lodge itself in your urethra.....lovely stuff
Tugg, can you make a video about poisonous mushrooms, please
I'm Brazilian, but like, from the farthest state from the Amazon forest. I live in awe of the people who live there (and they're so cool too, like culturally speaking)
I do love the picture of Huckleberry Finn and his always trusty man friend "normal" Jim.
I imagine that the slugs in the Amazon just have to play rain world irl
Just image it looks more like a cat slug
The Amazon river's currents are so strong it keeps going like a mile into the ocean. It takes 3 kilometers for the river water to slow down ennough to start to mix with the salt walter... and there's pirates sailing on that river
I always watch Tuggs videos multiple times because there’s so many hilarious jokes that go lightning fast and are clever af
Hey tugger, yeah jaguars are no joke. When i was in Guatemala, i had to take a dump at night and didnt wanna wake everyonee in the camper so i went to the bathrooms outside. I saw two pairs of eyes watching me walk the 100 feet and the guys working there told me i almost died lol
Fun fact: the goliath bird eater is the largest spider ever, that we know of. There was another ancient "spider" that was bigger but it ended up being a sea scorpion iirc.
tugg has honestly become and inspiration to me. the amount of research he puts into every single fucking video... i want to have the executive function that he has
1:45 Kitty cat’s tail made the cut! 😻
“Eddie Burback” I love knowing I have the same TH-cam sub box as Tucker.
During my time in the Amazon I did not get eaten but did almost get eaten and for whatever goddamn reason our guide decided to tail a fucking jaguar which was fun. And then got us flipped by a caiman, which is just a giant aggressive crocodile.
i love tucker’s videos. i learn more from him than i was merely able to retain from any part of school cuz he’s so relatable. keep tuggin tucker. ✌🏼
This was fun and horrifying. There's a boiling river?! Look, if you told me a river in Ohio was boiling because it was on fire due to pollution, I'd believe you, but this thing is just naturally boiling?! What the what?!
Love your videos, you're awesome!!
10:11 An inch is indeed pretty big 🗿
Damn
Oh, you forgot about the Giant otters, wich are basically water jaguars that live in packs and are super aggressive, like, if they catch you chilling too close to them they will fuck you up just for the sake of it.
9:18 "normal jim" is so funny
The Amazon is like Australia, but on the hard difficulty
It's all fun and games until Tugg learns about anacondas
That New England Six Flags joke really hit home, good one Tugg
as an amazonian I aprove this message
first video to start off the night, so I don’t lose my sanity in this over night shift. Three cheers for Tucker for simply just uploading at a decent time frame on the regular
I’d go into blind battle for this man if 1 person likes this
say less
As a Brazilian, I can say we are also very sacred of it, but some people live really close to it😊
Those quicksand photos are in fact a fetish thing. It's kind of baffling that one of my greatest irrational childhood fears is something people wack it to
"Normal Jim" - yeah i caught that 😂😂😂😂
3:52 Tugg.... It's a rainforest, of course it will flood. It's called RAINforest, the thick forest INVITES rain, rainforests are one of a few variables that influence the earth's climates and weather. If you create a new forest, you will create a new weather pattern like that one Indian guy did.
'normal jim' is A+ comedy way to go.
Holy shit that last picture was pure horror, like something out of the movie "The Thing". Love your videos man, they keep me up at night which is actually a bad thing but still, you're awesome.
10:35 Rest In Peace, Justin Schmidt. Fuck Parkinson’s disease
I love you so much Tucker your videos always brighten my day your one of the funniest creators I know. Thank for that.
3:21 corn starch and water ooblack
The fact that the picture of a woman that's stuck in quicksand is crazy
The boiling river is so hot it can cook a cow If it fell in. Which is terrifying... But not as terrifying as the fact that the boiling river is SO HOT that if you wanted to eat that cow it wouldn't just be overdone, but BURNT
Maybe the desert could be our next terrifying topic
mans made it through the whole video without mentioning jumanji ;-;
Unnoticed comment lol
Hey Tugg, you should talk about the oddities of Yellowstone National Park and the supervolcano it sits on top of… (please please please please plea-)
He'll lose his shit with the part about how we know so much about the food chain in the U.S. was from Yellowstone kicking us in the balls when we killed too many wolves. It changed how rivers flow... cause we hunted wolves..... oh and the colorful boiling ponds, etc bodies of water that people die in every year, the out of control bear population that yogi bear tried to warn us about feeding, and the fact tourist walk anywhere near bison assuming nothing could ever or will ever go wrong... Yellowstone is unique in its flavor of nad kicking glory
@@hossdelgado626 I couldn’t have said it better myself👏
I want him to do one on Australia
@@Walleyedwosaik it'd be 20 seconds long... *stares at camera* "it's fucking Australia. 'nough said"
I'm so glad I found your yt I watch your tik toks to fall asleep but now I can just these videos and not have to scroll 😭 your videos are so informative and I love your content ❤️❤️
Guys the Amazon Rainforest is a perfect example of what would happen if we give a whole half continent good land, heck ton of rain, some greedy trees, and a lot of time and isolation
