    As a Norwegian it is pretty cool seeing someone go over all this. The Trolls have been part of our folklore as far back as the ancient sagas. You got all the names pretty spot on if I am honest. Jotnar though is kind of a more englishfied version, Jotun or Jotne is the local term for the big ones. Also the area they were in is called Jotunheimen, or the Jotun's home, it is a large national park of sorts covering the mountain and valleys in the area.

      i understand what you're trying to say with "cryptids as we think of them", you mean the most popular/infamous ones, but the thing is that the term 'cryptid' covers a wide range of possible creatures, from real living animals existing far outside their native range (english big cats) to real extinct animals (tasmanian tiger sightings, coelacanths) to possible undiscovered species (colossal squid) to wild nonsense fantasy shit like mermaids and mongolian death worms. Coelacanths and colossal squid are great examples of things that _used_ to be considered cryptids, and then had their existence documented by science and are now considered just mundane animals.

    I didn't expect the troll bite to give him rabies. Somehow I expected it to turn him into a troll. In a surreal film where trolls exist and can smell a specific type of person, it's grounding to know they are also vulnerable to diseases.

    • @Smulenify
      @Smulenify 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The trolls are supposed to be animals and natural, their existence is just kept secret. Them being able to smell christian blood is part of the folklore and stems from the belief that people posessed by demons would smell like demons, non-christians would smell bad, christians would smell normal/good and especially holy people would smell amazing. So really it's humans that are strange and smell differently depending on belief, and the trolls which can live for 1000's of years likely associate the smell with being hunted by early christians. So other animals like dogs and cats, could probably also recognise the difference in smell, but they don't care.
      Why christians smell different could be from various reasons. It could be that faith changes hormones in the body, but then it likely would also impact muslims and people of other faiths, which it doesn't seem to do. It could be something from going to church specifically, and that the smell lingers-- but not all christians actually go to church. In Norwegian the saying is that trolls can smell "christian mens blood", which could mean christians in general or it could be only christian/religious men specifically-- which means that muslim men might actually smell the same, but Malika is a woman so she doesn't smell that way. That would also work with the early christians hunting trolls theory, since that would primarily be done by men.
      Am I spending way too much time contemplating this over a movie that came out 13 years ago? Yes. Do I regret it? No.

    When you talked about armor and the effects of taking a hit it made me think of the energy transfer that a body would experience when wearing body armor and taking a hit. I don’t know if you’re aware of the Demolition Ranch channel, but today he tested an armor plate that can stop an AP 50 BMG and the effects on the body after taking that shot.

      @jacobfreeman5444 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      I can imagine why you say it was almost not worth wearing that armor. Just to stop that caliber of round the armor would be very heavy. Either from sheer thickness or from all the layers designed to stop such a projectile. Next...well, most people wouldn't consider the fact armor does not magically stop the kinetic energy of the blow. Even if the projectile does get stopped before penetrating you it also is still gonna transfer that energy to you. Even regular handgun ammo can feel like getting punch hard when wearing bullet proof vests. So I can not imagine the sheer devastation the round in question would still do...must be like getting hit by a truck. So your organs are not gonna in good shape after that. Bruised and broken bones, internal hemorages from tears to any of your soft bits exposed to that energy, and the sheer shock from the blow. Pretty sure you could easily still die.

I already didn’t think it was a survivable condition but it was cool to find out what would happen. I’m not sure who would want to actually wear that armor because the thickness looked to be at least 4 inches, and the only real impressive thing it did was stop a 300 Win Mag black tip, although you might die from spawling

    Slight correction on the European Tetanus guidelines: it's true that we don't booster everybody after a 10-year period, but if you get an injury that requires medical attention (like stitches) and it has been >10 years since your last tetanus-shot, you will get a booster there and then. Every GP-practice or ER carries them.

      if a sickness is already within you a booster will do literally nothing to help
      it's not a 'cure' it's a sample of dead viral or bacterial matter to allow your body to build antibodies with, if you're already infected with something then your body will already be building antibodies for it
      rabies vaccines are an exception because without the shot your body will not actually know to fight it off before it's already too late but this is primarily due to the location of infection and rabies basically being sneaky

      Can confirm the U.S. is kinda similar. While we should get a tetanus shot once every ten years, in my 30 years of living, it's not really ever been... mentioned by doctors. The only times I've gotten my boosters are when I suddenly, accidentally get a nail or rusty object through the foot and the doctor is like "Oh, shit. You need your tetanus shot. No better time than now. You're getting it now. Stay in that seat."
      In other news, I would greatly prefer a nail through the foot to a bite. Nails through foot (not hitting bone) only hurt for a couple minutes and barely bleed. Bites just fucking suck, man. They stay itchy for like a month.

    Regarding tetanus and related bacterial infections: When I was in college, my microbiology professor showed us a segment on something called phage therapy. Basically, areas that are too poor for or for whatever reason cannot provide antibiotics to patients sometimes utilize bacteriophage viruses to treat various infections, including MRSA. It was remarkably effective and very interesting, if a bit haphazard.

    I randomly came across this movie a number of years ago and absolutely fell in love with it. I watch it maybe once a year and it never fails to get old. Is just such a unique subject for a movie, and personally, I think very well done.
    When I saw the movie "Troll" coming out in 2022, I was pretty excited, but so terribly let down. It wasn't bad, but definitely didn't live up to Troll Hunter.
    Thank you for doing such an amazing movie! I personally love how much you go into the synopsis of each movie because a lot of these movies I won't watch, normally because they're kind of scary and I hate horror movies. However, I'm also intrigued by your explanations of the monsters. 😂

    I think the best part about the movie was speculating what is going on with Thomas, is he going to turn into a troll or something? The usual weird "fantastic diseases" and then it just turns out to be old mundane rabies. Despite being about such a fantastical topic such as trolls, the movie does feel like a weird nature documentary in the end.

    I would love for you to cover, even on Roanoke tails, these creatures from stories of Lovecraft’s. The Shadow Over Insmith featuring the Deep Ones, the Whisperer in Darkness featuring the Migo, At the Mountains of Madness featuring the Star Spawn and the dreaded Showgoth. Also the Color Out of Space featuring the Color. All of these have a very robust biological description for nearly each creature.
    In the mountains of madnesses, as the two explorers of the Eldridge ruins read the transcription, they realize even these creatures labeled entities like Cthulhu and his young(lower even than aza and narl) as even more utterly alien in comparisons to our own differences from the old ones themselves.
    Basically saying well humans are not from my planet but at least humans are from my galaxy. Great writer.
    The bipedal fish, the deep ones, with their ability to interbreed with humans, and most likely have the gene for gigantism, and DNA regulation like lobsters to live forever, unless harmed or otherwise.
    the ultimate video and challenge to do on Lovecraft would be the Color Out of Space, which was a Lovecrafts intention to make a life so abstract in explanation. Elijah Woods made a good decision making that his first film out of the mythos. Its difference stands out the most among his other creations. A truly different life form, that not any creature from your covers have come close to. Except for annihilation because they ripped it off.

No wonder he just walks off into the wilderness by himself at the end, he's checked out by that stage.

    Thanks for the constant content, Roanoke. I love listening to your scientific breakdowns while I work.
    Question, not about the square cube law, but about reaction times in a creature that massive:
    Could light-based nerves serve to convey information faster than the normal setup? Basically fiber-optics instead of standard wiring?
    I am a massive fan of Kaiju movies and am constantly trying to come up with ways to explain them scientifically. (as much as one can) My latest bugbear is figuring out why there isn't a noticeable delay between them being hit in an extremity and their reactions. With normal nerves it seems like there would be a bit of lag when the "stubbed my toe" signal has to travel 400ft to reach the brain.
    Also would dovetail with how 90% of modern Kaiju are bioluminescent.
    Keep up the awesome work!
