    This has got to be one of the more horrendous examples of an adult lol As a daughter nopes out of that relationship, they would have to take one last cruise together down a creepy road in order for her to go live with her father. During this drive however, the car would be attacked by a creature unknown. So will the mother actually step up and be a chad? or remain a huge nerd, lets find out!

      Well giving that it has wing membranes and the way it moves it seems to me to be more bat like than primate a carnivorous hunter that spends most of its time in a cave and given the size would probably means not much flying and more ground movement thus the increased speed aversion to light bats being nocturnal and light instinctively means leave for home or danger predators bigger than you are appearing plus living in a cave only coming out at night to hunt adds fear of the unknown and the structure of the hands and jaw would also indicate a bat like creature that rose to the dominate species in its cave being the largest predator in the cave to start with can help with that plus with small rodents stumbling their way in from time to time could have led to increased growth if larger animals fell through holes at the surface which might be how it leaves the cave by climbing up and out. just a theory.

      Also 100% true. I mean we have "magically attacked from a distance" for thousands of years. The earliest reliable data says we had the atlatl for anywhere between 21 and 17 thousand years. 10 to 30 yards doesn't sound like much now but attacking from 30 ft out (10 yards) is insane, no other species can do that.

      As someone who was read horror books by his dad which lead to a long series of early reads, yes. Both my parents were teachers, so reading was never absent. Took me down an interesting road.
      Reading with your child helps with bonding, emotional intelligence, and with learning issues. I often read with my nephews and nieces sincer my cousins are not very fond of it. It's like the Simpson scene of an old man reading to children.

      It can be literally anything too, it doesn't have to be a book, literally ANYTHING the child shows interest in will suffice. I grew up on a farm and as many young farm kids are I was obsessed with the equipment. So my dad would read the little blurbs on the back of my Ertl farm equipment trading cards and also sales brochures for farm equipment with me before my bedtime when I was really little.
      That's all it took to kick off an interest in reading because the logic in my tiny mind went a little like this; I thought the equipment was cool, I wanted to know more about it, I learned more about it from the stuff my dad read with me, so if I learned to read I could learn more about these cool things on my own. So I started following along, started associating the symbols on the page with the sounds coming out of my dad's mouth, slowly started reading with and to my dad, and before you know it I'm having my sister bring me home books from the school library and I'm reading copies of Goosebumps and Box Car Kids in preschool.

    I seriously love how you put that in the beginning, how we have a choice to end and not pass our trauma onto our offspring. I grew up with an abusive father. One of my biggest goals in life besides becoming a full-time musician is to be a better father than mine ever could have been, and was. My biggest fear would be that I turn into anything, even the smallest bit of that piece of shit.

      Yeah I've come from at least two generations of abusive parents and if I ever become a parent, which is unlikely and would definitely be by adoption, I intend to be the exact opposite of my sperm donor, who I only ended up stuck with because mom got her cancer diagnosis as they were finalizing the divorce paperwork. That piece of trash used the way he was raised as an excuse to be a terrible human being when he was even in our lives but I just can't be so petty even if I wanna be, I just can't make any logical sense of it nor does even the concept make me feel any good so obviously continuing the cycle will only prolong my suffering as well. It can be hard to find another way when that's how you were raised and most probably tend to default toward rausing their own kids as they were but it's going to be so worth it and honestly the best way to get back at bad parents imo, don't let pain and bitterness control you, instead become a better person to show them how THEY failed you and how they don't get to control your future. Good luck man, I know you can do it

      A mental illness can become a genetic one if it has a precedence in the family
      and I don't treat Trauma and phobia as mental illnesses but just gave a example of something intangible and within ur mind as a product of environment can become something genetic.
      My mom has fear of driving a automobile(doesn't mean she can't but avoids subconsciously) and relies on public transport and Cabs due to a couple of accidents she saw during that time.
      Which also affected me to certain degree since I end up finding excuses to not drive unless it's absolutely necessary and prefer to rely on public transport or a walk if the place is closeby.

      @@ak-ub1ym I do think there is some precedent to generational trauma although one can't disregard nurture as well since one's parent being afraid of something would make a small child see that as dangerous since they're the big, strong adult that's supposed to protect them. Now... Prey animals defaulting to bite first and ask questions later while predatory animals tend to have a moment of confusion is probably due to where they naturally stand on the food chain and the fact that a prey animal being more prone to violent outbursts could injure or scare away a predator does encourage a possibly genetic disposition to readily biting, though idk with how fast tech evolves how strongly that affects humans since so much changes and doesn't remain a constant for us to develop much of a reflex response to, but it's still interesting to note. This from someone with one parent with serious anxiety and one, parent only by genetics and legal status, who was prone to violence because he was raised by people prone to violence, though alcohol was involved in at least one case so debatable how naturally aggressive they'd be otherwise with that lowering inhibitions. Idk how to tell the exact line between nature and nurture though, all ik for certain is the anxiety issues got passed down but could also be coincidence as that parent wasn't, to my knowledge, affected by negative stimuli growing up but I was so it probably could be inherited or could be learned in my case. Brains are weird meat machines though either way

      And I do agree with ur take since environment does create the precedence with any organism grows up in. But to a certain degree some part of how we see our environment is also passed down to future generations via genetics.
      As a whole (in america especially) so please don't take this the wrong way but in america we see any cultural / ideas / get so easily commoditized as a product which came out as a product of industrials during WW1 & 2 which progressed the west technologically but not spiritually so the environment built is a commoditized one which is reinforced generationally with all its good & bad aspects ,
      I believe that the way the older generations who lived during that time influenced the ppl so much even the foreigners who settle down in States after marrying one of their own & down a generation or two become more western in connection compared to motherland of the family so this happens both genetically and environmentally.

      i had some thought about it, and if, in their pov, they are living in a world dominated by science and technology, then surely there shouldn't (emphasis on shouldnt) be any big monster out there eating you alive. therefore, any stupid decisions can be done because "im not a wuss who is afraid of a little darkness" moment, like wandering into the dark woods alone in the middle of the night to try and see where a wolf carcass has gone. which you know, might be reasonable veering on the funny side. like, imagine any decisions you are making that involves going into darkness and the likes, if you imagine yourself inside a monster/horror movie, then you know for a fact you wouldnt be making those decisions (ie, like how these people would act, in their pov). but these people dont have an audience's perspective, like yours, so they wouldnt know that they are characters in a horror/monster movie and would end in a horrific fate for the decisions they've made. albeit id say that people should atleast have some intuition, because shit can feel wrong sometimes. but alas, stupidity for the sake of story

    I can't believe that I literally just took an anthropology class this Spring on human origins, so the fact this video came out during finals week is quite hilarious. I definitely agree with the posibility of it being a primate, as it seems to have a similar tooth pattern (2 incisors 1 canine and it seems like 2 premolars and 2 regular molars). They also seem to have a posterior sagittal crest, which is indicative of a stronger tempora fossa (the muscle that basically controls the jaw, the larger the muscle the more surface it needs to attach to, hence the crest). The skull shape makes me wonder if maybe it was a relative of Paranthropus Robustus instead of H. Habilis, but honestly it really could be either. This was likely also a male, due to the canine size and the crest size. But overall it's build and cranial structure is definitely that of a hominid!
    This video was absolutely fascinating to watch as always! And apologies for the long comment, I find hominid research fascinating lol.

    14:22 That's such an interesting perspective that I've never truly thought about. The idea that humans truly are cyptid creatures of eldritch horror to most animals. Exactly as you put it is how we often describe unknowable creatures from myth and folklore. That's so cool to think about, and it really makes perfect sense why animals react so violently or fearfully to us. It also explains why they do so even when we are trying to help them, like freeing a deer when it's suck on a fence or when a seal is caught to remove a plastic tie around its neck.
    Like imagine being stuck in the woods, isolated, starving, dehydrated, and on the edge of death. Then out in the distance you hear thr horrifying screams of a skinwalker running towards you. You pick up something to try to defend yourself in vain. It suddenly lunges, pinning you down with terrifyingly massive sharp claws and impossibly powerful limbs, and out of nowhere it injects you with some fluids. You keep struggling, crying and screaming, as it starts running off probably taking you to its family to eat you. Finally, though, it drops you off right in front of a populated highway and runs off. And that's it.

So in addition to the parental threats of being left as a snack to the monsters near pitch black roads in forested areas, I also got to experience being the joys of my parents and family treating to "feed me to the alligators" (if we were nearer the swamps and marshes) or the sharks (if we were nearer the coast).

    youtube recommended your video talking about shin godzilla, and now I'm at least 15 videos deep into your channel, you've got some amazing videos out there, I really enjoy your humor, your movie summary, and breaking down the biology, the medical side of things, the disease and all the other science side of things in these movies

    I can totally relate to going off when talking about stuff you're fixated on. Back when I was defending my Bachelor's, I exceeded the time limit by an hour, effectively making the students waiting their turn after me shit bricks. (Got the highest grade tho.)

      @@bryantsanchez-carazo5816 I think I might have translated it wrong, in my country (I'm Polish) to get your degree/diploma, in the last year of your studies you have to prepare a project and then present it to a jury of professors, then answer questions. It's called a defence, literally. We don't have a major here, it doesn't work like in the US, you just study the subject you applied for. I studied graphic design and my final project was a series of watercolor illustrations based on Scandinavian folklore plus design of a book about the topic with those illustrations in it.
      Huh, I only now realised that while I studied something completely different from Roanoke, the subject of my final project kinda is something he could make a video about. Small world.

    My thoughts on why the "troll" was taken down but not out by the fire is that it has a similar reaction of "fainting goats" making it panic then the creature locks up causing it to "faint". Fire most likely is its trigger so it doesn't cause cave-ins. Most underground fires are caused by gas build up and leaking into structurally weak areas of caves.
