well, to be honest, in order to catch the woman monster they have to be freed, so they could just pretend to agree to the deal and run away once they are freed,, so it kinda makes sense for them to ask what's in it for them if they really catch the monster even though they could ditch
There was one episode where an enemy hunting team set this huge fire and left a bunny hanging from a tree (I believe inside out) and wild bill goes "should we give it cpr". One of the other guys just goes "no bill, it's dead" in an extremely annoyed tone. That exchange floored me, 10/10 show
@soobunii4871 i heavily doubt it, i don't think it would be cool to kill an actual bunny and hang its body for some one-off scene meant for entertainment purposes.

@ConnorHammond I've always considered WWE wrestlers to be more similar to stunt actors. It's fake in that it's scripted and they aren't actually smashing each with weapons, but it's hard to fake some moves, you can only mitigate the damage. I grew out of watching Wrestling, but I still respect them because doing that shit weekly with awful health insurance must be terrible.
@@FairlyFatherless my favorite part of WWE is genuinely the stunt factor. It may all be scripted but its really entertaining to watch them put on a show
Honestly, I kinda respect that these guys have managed to turn running around in the woods and screaming about monsters into a nearly 11 year long career in television.
Hey at least it's not Curse of Oak Island At least all these guys do is run around and do wacky stuff. Curse of Oak Island probably dumps way too much money into completely meaningless television
My husband and I were so obsessed with this show. After the actor who plays Trapper died in real life, they decided on the show that he'd left them a special "Lore" book that leads them on mystery solving adventures. The later seasons have a like sketchy imaginary MIB type government organizations trying to stop them from finding monsters. It's literally a bunch of dudes playing pretend. The show is just as crazy as it seems in your review and only gets crazier in later seasons. Wild Bill also delivers a lot of incredible content and was quoted in an interview as saying that filming this show "saved his life" as it gave him direction/a way to process his ptsd after discharging from the marines.
watching this video was wild because i work in a psych ward as security and one of the patients was fixated on this show and explained the entire plot to me over a span of four hours including a tearful monologue about the tribute episode to one of the people who apparently died on the show. The guy was 100% convinced it was real and was warning me about going certain areas in america due to some huge wolves that they hunted on the show. It was honestly one of the most memorable patient interactions from last year.
Honestly this seems so fun, like these middle-aged men are just out here living their best lives. Making a full-on career out of basically running around, screaming and playing in the woods and what not
@@akbl1197it’s a bad (understuffed) taxidermy of a lion. You can see how those teeth would not realistically allow the thing to really close it’s mouth.
My husband proposed to me while we were on a trip in Cuzco, Peru. After a wonderful day that included gorgeous sites and delicious food after he proposed, we came back to our hotel and turned on the tv. This show was on and we had never seen it before. We ended the night watching it for like 3 hours and dying of laughter. Good times
In their defense, the death cat is an actual thing in Appalachian folklore (although, I believe the one from folklore actually is just supposed to look like a big panther/mountain lion, so they actually did take a few creative liberties)
Jeff is the scary concept of someone who is invincible but not invulnerable. They'll always come back, but they feel pain like any other human. The amount of times they've fed him to monster has left him so traumatized and reverted him to a child like state. He cant even comprehend that his "friends" would do such horrible things to him
When I was 12 I stayed the night at my friends house and his dad was watching this show and we were so enamored by it we stayed up all night watching it. He lived in the woods so the next day we decided to go looking for monsters and ended up finding a stray dog which his family kept.
First, let me say, I'm DESPERATE to find a stray dog, lol!!! I'm a dog lover, and wish I could find one.... Or 2, 3, 4.... You get the idea😂. But, this is a fantastic post and love to hear a pup was saved and you had a fun night and day and made some awesome memories! That's awesome for you! 👍💜🙂
I do remember one episode where they hunted a monster called "Hogzilla." Which was a 7 foot hog with fangs and claws that stood on it's hind legs. Their solution was to get a metal cage you'd use for German shepherds and whatnot. Then they found a normal 4 foot long hog, then proceeded to run around it and scream.
Same its my fav parts of the vid, now when i watch clips from the show too im just always thinking of jeff screaming and saying poor jeff and then i start dying laughing
My uncle was trapper john, he was an amazing man. Yes this show is wild, actually a lot of it is filmed on my farm in WV and a lot of the traps were built by my dad and grandpa and they also played the monsters sometimes. As a kid growing up on this set, I can attest that this show is absolutely unhinged. When my uncle first told us all about this idea we thought he was kidding till he told us the release date. This group of friends really just wanted to make money off of having fun😂 thank you for this, it really brings back good memories of my uncle john

This is such a weirdly wholesome show? Like, you got four fat guys in beards running around in the dark chasing sheepsquach, and somehow it's the healthiest male bonding relationship you could possibly hope for on television. It's weird how unconventional the relationships on this show are.
@@Random-sk6hmbro wtf, how does any of what he said relate to anything you just say? Also masculinity isn’t a bad thing, and really toxic masculinity isn’t a thing, it’s just called being an ass. Also patriarchy is honestly kinda stupid and that’s coming from a guy but still, none of what you said has anything to do with what OP said so why bring it up. Honestly this is why I hate these radical feminists because they act like all men should die even though men are necessary for humanity for obvious god damn reasons.
As an avid consumer of the Mountain Monster Universe, I can explain the guys in masks kidnapping the gang, this was part of the Rival Monsters Hunters Arc, and their whole thing is that they were evil because unlike our heroic southern gang who just trap monsters, these guys kill them, they also just kinda dick around and kidnap them because they wanna be top dog in the monster hunting world
This show is also well known in Germany. If you're wondering why... It's because of the accent. Not the original southern accent they speak, but the attempt to recreate this accent into the german language by the voice actors over here 😄😄 Shit sounded so hilarious that many german RUclipsrs or TikTokers where making fun of it and tried to imitate it. The voice always made me think of a guy who desperately tries to sound way more masculine than he really does 😂
As a West Virginian, our accent is so funny. It's different from the American deep south. I can only assume we just made it up while stuck in the Mountains.
@@criptideancia It's a weird quirk about Germany, they dub absolutely everything on tv into German, even though basically every German speaks fluent or nearly fluent English. I recall it led to one hilarious case with the South Park episode about Passion of the Christ; Cartman starts saying Nazi stuff in German, and everyone else has no idea what he's saying and think it's Hebrew, except they say this in German and it just makes the episode nonsensical.
I support this show with all my heart, everytime it reminds me of playing pretend in elementary school when we were old enough to not belieeeeve the stories we made up, but young enough to completely commit to them and have so much fun. Seeing grown men seemingly do the same thing warms my dumb little heart
I love this show. It was the funniest thing I've seen on TV in a long time. The last couple seasons had this big multi-monster story arc, along with this rival black-ops monster hunting group. which was pretty entertaining, but the guy who played the leader of the team, Trapper, became seriously ill and died, so they had to cut it short and began again with a more conventional monster hunt. Huckleberry had one of the best lines about that rival group. "I haven't seen this many guns since the day I got married, by God!"
I have been raving about this show for YEARS to anyone that will listen. Thank you for finally speaking out about it, it’s what we as a society deserve.
4:18 i really respect them for acknowledging the cameramen in this show. Most shows never acknowledge like these teams of people filming their life and everything traumatizing happening to them. 10/10
As a Texan I appreciate being able to understand these fine gentlemen. Growing up here doesn’t have many other positives but not having to use subtitles for shows like this is my one superpower.
As bad as this show is, it’ll always hold a special place in my heart because my grandpa showed it to me and it was like *our* show, and nowadays I can look back and make fun of it and myself for genuinely enjoying it when I was younger
my mom and i would watch this and finding bigfoot and we’d joke about how we could see my dad and his friends would do this stuff drunk lolol it still makes me so happy
the consept of a horror show where in the normal recording they are all making jokes, and having a good time, then on the confessional they are recluse and have a thousand yard stare, knowing something horrible is going to happen to them, is actually really cool
love the subtle positive masculinity subtext: letting your friends know when you don’t feel safe and removing yourself from that situation, the way the guys comfort jeff after his millionth near death experience,
As someone that lives in North Carolina, I think it's hilarious that Danny is put in such a state of utter confusion when he tries to decipher their southern accents.
FINALLY someone talked about this show. There’s an episode where the “sheepsquatsch” pissed in Trapper’s eyes. Yes you read that right. And he screamed and rolled around spitting on his own beard for 10 min straight and it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I routinely go back and watch that clip to this day. 😂
I went to high school with Jeff and the Death Cat. They were so in love, though unfortunately their love was a tragedy. Jeff was messed up for weeks when the Death Cat left. It took awhile, but he soon learned how to live without him. Seeing them like this again, I understand why Jeff was traumatized, it must've been hard leaving him a second time
I used to watch this show everyday when I was a wee 4th grader over the summer and me and my sister would be scared to death by anything monster related. We genuinely thought the entire story was real and I kept getting dreams about Jeff taking me into the woods to see a tinfoil bag saying "there's a bigfoot in that bag" but I'd always wake up before opening the bag.
One time my dad and I were switching through channels and came across the show halfway through the episode. It was the most insane thing both of us had ever seen, some guy was in a cage that they had built, another was getting shot at for trespassing, I think a tree got thrown at someone. Genuinely keep both of us at the edge of our seat and I’ll never forget it.
I was reading this comment while going up some stairs and as I read on my pace slowed and my confusion grew. Why wasn't I exposed to this show as a kid😂
@Kristian Alexis You know how some people remove the laughtrack from sitcoms to show how awkward the pauses are? I want someone to add a laughtrack to this show to show how you literally would not be able to tell the difference between this and a sitcom. That'd be pretty funny, I think.
I love that the skeleton guy kidnapped tied the monsterhunters to chairs but apparently left the cameraman with enough free-range to film the room and the guys from every angle possible
As someone who lives in the Appalachian area, I can indeed confirm that we spend our weekends running around in the mountains being chased by T.V show producers in masks.
Hell yea, run around the woods from the producers awhile then go back to Mamaws place and have her make some good ol cathead biscuits and sausage gravy.
This is, no lie, the fucking funniest thing I've seen in like three months. I really needed the huge, crying, wheezing laugh this gave me. Please, please, please review more
I love how this show is written so that it's easy to mistake as a misguided documentary. It has me on my knees howling with laughter watching these guys and imagining their perfect credulous TV audience at home being terrified for their safety. It's so funny! Precious.
I went to high school in West Virginia, and every year, the health class would make their own episode of ‘Mountain Monsters.’ Every time, they just had a kid dress in a bigfoot suit, and a few other kids would pretend to be the guys in the show. Not a lot happened at that school, so a lot of the kids looked forward to seeing it at the end of the year in the school broadcast. I deadass forgot about it until I saw this video, and thought it was kinda interesting.
I remember seeing part of this where they set a trap for a monster called a smoke wolf. They ended up with a regular wolf in it, were still really excited, and the episode ended with a disclaimer like "No wild animals were captured in this show." I'm also pretty sure I recognized a monster sound effect from a video game while they were acting like they heard something in the woods, so 10/10 show
as someone from south louisiana, this is my civic duty 1:18 “We’re in Wood County, West Virginia, and that [brute] team pushed all our guys in the back of that van. Me and Wild Bill’s gonna haul ass across this field and try and catch up with them.” 2:38 “The van stops. A guy gets out and comes back, gives us our camera.” 3:12 “You alright there Jeff?” “Yeah, I’m doing fine.” 3:46 “Me and brother Willy, we’re reconning around this cabin. We’re gonna get up there and put an eyeball on it, see what the hell is going on with our team members.” 4:23 “The light kicks on right in our face. You can see a mirror on the wall, and you can see a speaker and a camera. I’ve never seen a place like this, but it looks like an interrogation room.” 5:12 “This whole situation is weird.” 5:16 “Hello?” “Oh shit!” 5:34 “Damn.” “I’m sitting.” “As soon as that skeleton appeared in my face and said ‘sit down,’ I sat down.” 5:58 “You’re the guy that killed the Stonish Giant.” “Yeah.” 6:08 “A deal? Let me tell you what, right now, old boy. There’s no way in hell we’re gonna help you kill another damn Bigfoot.” 6:48 “The woman of the woods?” “The woman of the woods is someone we don’t want to mess with.” 7:18 “This team has already had one heck of an encounter with her. When we were in Lee County, she touched Huckleberry and Jeff. Marked them for death. She affected Jeff’s mind, maybe for life.” 8:06 “Alright. We help you get this woman of the woods. How does this benefit us?” 8:40 “You didn’t kill him?” 8:16 “He says he can deliver who killed the Stonish Giant. If he can make good on that deal, that’s something we’re really gonna have to consider.” 9:30 “Well, yeah, you kinda did.” 9:52 “Where’d you go?” 10:12 “Damn! “Oh my god.” “It’s a hog’s head.” “What the hell?” 10:40 “All of a sudden, right there behind it is a damn hog’s head!” 11:04 “Blood coming out of its nose, its ears, its eyes. What the hell does that mean?” 11:19 “Holy shit.” “I’m telling you guys, there was someone in here.” 11:39 “They’re gone, there’s nothing else we can do. We have a lot to fill you two in on. Let’s do it away from here. I don’t feel safe.” 12:59 “Alright guys, the next creature we’re going to investigate is one we have a history with. We’re going after the Cherokee Death Cat.” 13:23 “We know this Death Cat is nothing to mess with. It’s a huge feline. Weighing in at five hundred pounds.” 14:17 “Well Bubba, we heard you had a pretty interesting encounter out here.” “Well, yeah, we did. So when we’re coming out of the woods, I was along about that tree back there, and Dad was in front of me on that little bank, and he just stopped dead. And he said ‘did you see that?’ And I said ‘see what, Dad?’ and he said ‘that big cat.’ He said ‘son, that cat was eight or nine foot long,’ said ‘it was huge!’” “Dah-gone.” (it’s like saying “oh wow”) 15:05 “And Dad said ‘leapt through the air, and hit right there on that bare spot on that tree.” 15:35 “I’m interested to see how far it is from that log up to where it lit up in that tree. That’s a pretty long shot.” “I want to get a measurement and see exactly how far this big cat jumped.” 15:48 “These big predator cats, they don’t fool around. This thing could be on top of you before you blink your eyes, and you’re done.” “Something big’s been through here.” 16:39 “Check this out! There’s a pee post! This is fresh pee, dude.” “We just found a scent post! You can see claw marks almost seven feet in the air, and fresh urine at the base of the tree. This has to be the Death Cat.” 17:58 “Jeff!” “He’s not here.” 18:25 “Wait, Jeff, hold up Jeff!” “Grab him.” “Oh my gosh, that scared me to death.” “Jeff, talk to me dude, what’s wrong?” 18:44 “We just got up to Jeff, and he was shook up.” “Settle down, settle down.” “What happened, dude?” “What?” 19:03 “Are you hurt anywhere, Jeff?” 19:12 “Jeff said when we got separated, the Death Cat came out of the tree right on top of him.” 19:26 “I think the best thing we can do is get Jeff out of these woods.” “Come on, huh?” “And try to talk to him in the morning.” “That could have ended really, really bad.” Sorry if I misheard anything ^^; hope this helps anyone with auditory processing issues or who might not understand certain parts
Best parts of the early seasons were seeing the large traps Willy built. There are so many episodes I would love to see Danny pick apart. Like the episode where Buck got hypnotized by the Mothman. Or when the Cherokee Devil made Huckleberry dance in the mud naked - then Buck suddenly knew how to read Cherokee.
This show used to come on at the most obscure time at night for like 10 hours straight and it literally shaped my entire being. The code names for eachother, the drama, the plot, im SO happy this abomination exists
I remember watching this as a kid and thinking this shit was real I though Jeff was actually crazy and in one episode he quits the job and the group goes to his house and he has all this information on all the monsters dude it was so wild and just awesome
@@stingreas ik its like, this is literally how most of my grandpas friends talk, and it's only northern Kentucky. Drive an hour and it's worse but I'm just used to it by now.
As someone else from the south, the fact that this person used the word "flabbergasted" is 100% proof that they are indeed from the south. Nothing says "2nd place in the civil war" like words and phrases no one has casually used for 200 years.
Back then this show actually genuinely scared me with the so-called “monsters” but looking back now everything was so goofy-especially in later seasons w the supposed “rival” group. I will say though that it made the lore deeper, but other than that it was painfully obvious everything was staged. Also RIP Trapper (1947-2019) ❤️
I’ve loved this show for YEARS. It is literally one of my favorite shows (I cried when trapper died) it’s so ridiculous and over the top, but as someone from Appalachia, this is culture. It’s like the Glee of monster hunting. I reference wild bill at least 3 times a week with my dad, even when I’m now in college.
As a southerner myself, Danny not understanding a damn word they’re saying, meanwhile they’re speaking clear as crystal to me will always be the funniest thing 😂
as someone from georgia hearing people with these accents always makes me feel so happy, as i lost mine a while ago. also didn’t danny go to georgia tech?? ik atlantan accents aren’t THAT thick but there’s plenty of old southerners here bahaha
My parents and I always had a theory that the cast fully truly believes everything that’s happening and the job of the producers is todo things that make them believe it lol. Watching through that lens makes it even funnier
As is tradition. Where I grew up not too far away from these good ole boys, Boy Scouts would take the newer members on late night snipe hunts through the woods and scare them as a sort of low harm hazing.
I watch this video like 3-4 times a week. It’s my favorite video of Danny’s. I wish he would review more episodes. I remember the day it came out, I laughed as hard as I still laugh today.
Oh my GOD my family LOVES these guys. We were flipping through channels one time and got enraptured by a marathon of it. We're constantly referencing that whole arc with random doors appearing in the middle of fields and forests and summoning cult members. It was such a guilty pleasure, so entertaining. Edit: Okay was waiting to see if he mentioned it in the video but he didn't so-- rest in peace Trapper. iirc they were playig the marathon *because* Trapper had just died and in between a few of the episodes they would cut to this out-of-character gathering where they were all sitting in a circle talking about their memories with him and the show. It was honestly really touching to see and a bit of a relief that they're clearly just goofing around with this series.
I’m a Dutch Canadian, but my mother is a southern American from the Appalachians, and I’m also married to a southern man. I didn’t realize until this video and seeing Danny’s difficulty in understanding them that I am unintentionally fully fluent in “frantic mountain hillbilly”
Literally! He said something about needing subtitles and I was like, "oh yeah I need subtitles to pay attention too!" "... So I can understand them" "say what now"
My dad used to watch this show bc it’s hilarious. He’s been saying from the beginning that he thinks the camera crew is just messing with them and these guys don’t know it’s fake and I can’t agree more
this is like when you're playing with your friends when you're kids. just doin whatever you want, having a blast, making up nonsensical shit. honestly wish i could do that for a job
I love how it’s like this horrifying horror movie tear stuff (or at least trying to be) and then you hear “these darn hootin’ n’ hollerin’ ghosts gon’ scare the overalls off a tractor driver real good”
i love the metaphors that southern americans use. someone tweeted about hearing a southern guy say "with my luck, it could be raining titties and i'd still look up and catch a dick." and i genuinely love that.
The reason the main characters keep accusing the skeleton men of killing the Stonish Giant is because they saw the skeleton men dragging its body across the forest and before that they heard a gunshot.
My day started off with a giant oak tree falling on my house but now Danny has posted watching my FAVORITE cryptid show. I got to meet Buck, Huckleberry, and Wild Bill in person at my local bigfoot festival and here's what I learned: Buck: he's very friendly and easy going Huckleberry: he's become heard of hearing and talks to every little kid he met like they were his grandkids Wild Bill: cannot understand what he says in real life either and also has to pee a lot....like every 10 minutes
I literally never comment on videos, but I'm so happy you made a video about this show. I discovered this show a few years ago and watched every single episode. It's very entertaining, lol. They never get any monsters on camera, they run through the woods screaming when they're "chasing after a monster," and put so much effort into traps that never catch anything without the monster "escaping." Overall, a solid 10/10.
To answer your question: I work for a monster. They can be late on payments. And sometimes they just pay you in shells and gold teeth, but the trade in value is pretty good. Never had problems with her health insurance plan either. So it’s not a bad job if you don’t get spooked easily
I used to watch this show religiously. It started off acting like most monster-hunting shows (more self-aware though), but it evolved into a show not even trying to pass off as semi-real anymore. There have been human antagonists. I'll always love the show and the whole AIMS team though. And RIP Trapper. I was really sad when he passed Edit: I made this comment before seeing the video and I see that the human antagonists storyline was literally one of the first things you brought up. Oh, and often times, Wild Bill does get subtitles
I loved this show! I’d always watch it with my grandma (who doesn’t speak English, so I translate for her) She’d always give them nicknames, call them silly, and I got to tell about creatures and cryptids to her. Man, she listens to me all day. “Mi tesoro”, my treasure, that’s what she calls me.
I almost passed away when I saw the notification this show has been an inside joke in my family for years also highly recommend whatever episode it is that huckleberry gets brainwashed or something and runs away to stand under a waterfall naked, then pisses himself in the side by side and the one where jeff gets a minature skull stuck up his nose and they take it out with tweezers in a shed
the funny thing is that when i was younger, me and my family used to watch mountain monsters on a daily basis when it first came out. we always found it funny and we still have inside jokes that are about the show even now lol

Well they would have to be let go in order to catch the monster so they kinda need a reason to catch it otherwise they could just go home.

Honestly, I kinda respect that these guys have managed to turn running around in the woods and screaming about monsters into a nearly 11 year long career in television.
This shit has been around for 11 years??

Hey at least it's not Curse of Oak Island At least all these guys do is run around and do wacky stuff. Curse of Oak Island probably dumps way too much money into completely meaningless television

My husband and I were so obsessed with this show. After the actor who plays Trapper died in real life, they decided on the show that he'd left them a special "Lore" book that leads them on mystery solving adventures. The later seasons have a like sketchy imaginary MIB type government organizations trying to stop them from finding monsters. It's literally a bunch of dudes playing pretend. The show is just as crazy as it seems in your review and only gets crazier in later seasons. Wild Bill also delivers a lot of incredible content and was quoted in an interview as saying that filming this show "saved his life" as it gave him direction/a way to process his ptsd after discharging from the marines.
That’s so sweet. I want to watch the whole show
aw that's so weet
I love how this show was the only cryptid show that actually admitted it was fake. The team is actually likeable for once too, which is damn rare.

Yeah but does Jeff know it's fake? 🤣

watching this video was wild because i work in a psych ward as security and one of the patients was fixated on this show and explained the entire plot to me over a span of four hours including a tearful monologue about the tribute episode to one of the people who apparently died on the show. The guy was 100% convinced it was real and was warning me about going certain areas in america due to some huge wolves that they hunted on the show. It was honestly one of the most memorable patient interactions from last year.
to be fair, he was right about the wolves. Although those are most likely the LEAST of your worries in the Appalachians
The wolves have been seen by people outside of the show also. Very interesting show and funny too.

My husband proposed to me while we were on a trip in Cuzco, Peru. After a wonderful day that included gorgeous sites and delicious food after he proposed, we came back to our hotel and turned on the tv. This show was on and we had never seen it before. We ended the night watching it for like 3 hours and dying of laughter. Good times
this is such a cute story 🥺 im glad you and your husband had a great time

I love how they were so unimaginative that when they designed their monster, it is literally just a lion... with porcupine quills stuck in his face.
Don't forget that it's also extremely buff
Unimaginative? What do you mean? It's all real!
Also like... A 500 pound 9' long lion literally just describes a male lion lol, like it's not any bigger than a heftier lion
In their defense, the death cat is an actual thing in Appalachian folklore (although, I believe the one from folklore actually is just supposed to look like a big panther/mountain lion, so they actually did take a few creative liberties)
@@saracreel3546hm pretty interesting
As someone from Appalachia it's incredibly wholesome to see guys like this focus their energy towards healthy outlets like monster hunting
It's what they do before and after the monster hunting...
What are the unhealthy outlets 😨
Men will do anything to avoid going to therapy, including faking a kidnapping & spending a decade hunting monsters in the woods. 😔

@@boyxgamer That's a fair point; hunting the monsters inside themselves
Jeff is the scary concept of someone who is invincible but not invulnerable. They'll always come back, but they feel pain like any other human. The amount of times they've fed him to monster has left him so traumatized and reverted him to a child like state. He cant even comprehend that his "friends" would do such horrible things to him

When I was 12 I stayed the night at my friends house and his dad was watching this show and we were so enamored by it we stayed up all night watching it. He lived in the woods so the next day we decided to go looking for monsters and ended up finding a stray dog which his family kept.
What a wholesome story 💕
I think that is the best possible thing you guys could have found
First, let me say, I'm DESPERATE to find a stray dog, lol!!! I'm a dog lover, and wish I could find one.... Or 2, 3, 4.... You get the idea😂.

That’s adorable
You found more then they have at times. Also pupppppyyyy
I do remember one episode where they hunted a monster called "Hogzilla." Which was a 7 foot hog with fangs and claws that stood on it's hind legs. Their solution was to get a metal cage you'd use for German shepherds and whatnot. Then they found a normal 4 foot long hog, then proceeded to run around it and scream.
😂
I want to do this with my friends
Sounds fun to me😂😂
poor hog
@sewer~rat not the part where you're mean to a hog for no reason, just the part where you run around a cage and scream
the fact that there is a guy named trapper who is not the one who builds the traps is incredible
Every single time, that clip of Jeff screaming in abject terror sends me into hysterics. Poor Jeff

Yes this show is wild, actually a lot of it is filmed on my farm in WV and a lot of the traps were built by my dad and grandpa and they also played the monsters sometimes. As a kid growing up on this set, I can attest that this show is absolutely unhinged. When my uncle first told us all about this idea we thought he was kidding till he told us the release date.

As an avid consumer of the Mountain Monster Universe, I can explain the guys in masks kidnapping the gang, this was part of the Rival Monsters Hunters Arc, and their whole thing is that they were evil because unlike our heroic southern gang who just trap monsters, these guys kill them, they also just kinda dick around and kidnap them because they wanna be top dog in the monster hunting world
Lmao the lore 😭
It’s all adding up now thanks for the lore 😅
"Arc" LMFAO
That’s actually insane, lmao
And that’s what you missed on Glee
This show is also well known in Germany. If you're wondering why... It's because of the accent. Not the original southern accent they speak, but the attempt to recreate this accent into the german language by the voice actors over here 😄😄
Shit sounded so hilarious that many german RUclipsrs or TikTokers where making fun of it and tried to imitate it. The voice always made me think of a guy who desperately tries to sound way more masculine than he really does 😂
I'm surprised this show existed but it even got dubbed in german?? 😂
As a West Virginian, our accent is so funny. It's different from the American deep south. I can only assume we just made it up while stuck in the Mountains.
Ich dachte mir die ganze Zeit, dass es mir irgendwie bekannt vorkommt lol
Link?
@@criptideancia It's a weird quirk about Germany, they dub absolutely everything on tv into German, even though basically every German speaks fluent or nearly fluent English.
I recall it led to one hilarious case with the South Park episode about Passion of the Christ; Cartman starts saying Nazi stuff in German, and everyone else has no idea what he's saying and think it's Hebrew, except they say this in German and it just makes the episode nonsensical.
I support this show with all my heart, everytime it reminds me of playing pretend in elementary school when we were old enough to not belieeeeve the stories we made up, but young enough to completely commit to them and have so much fun. Seeing grown men seemingly do the same thing warms my dumb little heart
Omg yes this is the exact vibe
hundred percent
I love this show. It was the funniest thing I've seen on TV in a long time. The last couple seasons had this big multi-monster story arc, along with this rival black-ops monster hunting group. which was pretty entertaining, but the guy who played the leader of the team, Trapper, became seriously ill and died, so they had to cut it short and began again with a more conventional monster hunt.
Huckleberry had one of the best lines about that rival group. "I haven't seen this many guns since the day I got married, by God!"
I was about to say. This shows got some serious detail put into the plot it’s so silly I love it
I love that by the end of this Danny has seen so much of the show that he just says "hollering" like it's part of his normal vocabulary.

the consept of a horror show where in the normal recording they are all making jokes, and having a good time, then on the confessional they are recluse and have a thousand yard stare, knowing something horrible is going to happen to them, is actually really cool

I went to high school in West Virginia, and every year, the health class would make their own episode of ‘Mountain Monsters.’ Every time, they just had a kid dress in a bigfoot suit, and a few other kids would pretend to be the guys in the show. Not a lot happened at that school, so a lot of the kids looked forward to seeing it at the end of the year in the school broadcast. I deadass forgot about it until I saw this video, and thought it was kinda interesting.

I remember seeing part of this where they set a trap for a monster called a smoke wolf. They ended up with a regular wolf in it, were still really excited, and the episode ended with a disclaimer like "No wild animals were captured in this show."

@@stingreas ik its like, this is literally how most of my grandpas friends talk, and it's only northern Kentucky. Drive an hour and it's worse but I'm just used to it by now.
I’m from the north and can understand them
As someone else from the south, the fact that this person used the word "flabbergasted" is 100% proof that they are indeed from the south.
Nothing says "2nd place in the civil war" like words and phrases no one has casually used for 200 years.
Back then this show actually genuinely scared me with the so-called “monsters” but looking back now everything was so goofy-especially in later seasons w the supposed “rival” group. I will say though that it made the lore deeper, but other than that it was painfully obvious everything was staged. Also RIP Trapper (1947-2019) ❤️
what happened to Trapper?
@@violetbean8928 he died
@Violet Bean yeah he’s dead
He went to see the psychic Bigfoot in the sky
@@dovebin I assume they were asking how he died but great answer
11:10 I kind of want someone to make a "did you kill the Stonish Giant" T shirt replicating the cover of "are you my mother?"
I would buy that shirt
@@GageStoops wouldn't we all?
I’ve loved this show for YEARS. It is literally one of my favorite shows (I cried when trapper died) it’s so ridiculous and over the top, but as someone from Appalachia, this is culture. It’s like the Glee of monster hunting. I reference wild bill at least 3 times a week with my dad, even when I’m now in college.
I do the same thing with my dad, this show made me so happy as a kid, and I'm glad I'm not the only one that watched it
You’re so right, this is our Glee
Wait, trapper DIED?!
TRAPPER DIED⁉️
Trapper died???? Irl or in the show?
As a southerner myself, Danny not understanding a damn word they’re saying, meanwhile they’re speaking clear as crystal to me will always be the funniest thing 😂
Fr! I'm from WV (actually ab 3 hours away from Wood County, featured in the first clip) and everyone sounds completely normal to me 😂
as someone from georgia hearing people with these accents always makes me feel so happy, as i lost mine a while ago. also didn’t danny go to georgia tech?? ik atlantan accents aren’t THAT thick but there’s plenty of old southerners here bahaha
Same. I grew up in north central Florida and I understood every word the gang said.
I just moved to Kentucky so their accents are becoming more and more normal to me
Same, these are the most avg accents in AL
My parents and I always had a theory that the cast fully truly believes everything that’s happening and the job of the producers is todo things that make them believe it lol. Watching through that lens makes it even funnier
Like the titular dog from the movie Bolt 💀
Jeff being the exception since he always fakes being hurt to convince the others of what's happening.
Truman show for rednecks
As is tradition. Where I grew up not too far away from these good ole boys, Boy Scouts would take the newer members on late night snipe hunts through the woods and scare them as a sort of low harm hazing.
I watch this video like 3-4 times a week. It’s my favorite video of Danny’s. I wish he would review more episodes. I remember the day it came out, I laughed as hard as I still laugh today.
This comment is the truest thing ever.
I mostly love it cuz I watch the show with my dad, but this specific video never fails to make me laugh
I'd be so down to watch Danny review more episodes.
as someone whos been kidnapped before i can confirm they let me not only keep my camera but also let my whole camera crew come along
Oh my GOD my family LOVES these guys. We were flipping through channels one time and got enraptured by a marathon of it. We're constantly referencing that whole arc with random doors appearing in the middle of fields and forests and summoning cult members. It was such a guilty pleasure, so entertaining.
Edit: Okay was waiting to see if he mentioned it in the video but he didn't so-- rest in peace Trapper. iirc they were playig the marathon *because* Trapper had just died and in between a few of the episodes they would cut to this out-of-character gathering where they were all sitting in a circle talking about their memories with him and the show. It was honestly really touching to see and a bit of a relief that they're clearly just goofing around with this series.
Thats actually so sweet
I’m a Dutch Canadian, but my mother is a southern American from the Appalachians, and I’m also married to a southern man. I didn’t realize until this video and seeing Danny’s difficulty in understanding them that I am unintentionally fully fluent in “frantic mountain hillbilly”
I’m southern and I didn’t even notice the accents until Danny pointed out how he couldn’t understand them 😂
@@Cleoleo471 literally same 😭 Ig all southerners are fluent in it sshshs
I’m born and raised in Texas, and HARD SAME
@@kinkanalchemist SAME! To me there's barely an accent!
Literally! He said something about needing subtitles and I was like, "oh yeah I need subtitles to pay attention too!"
"... So I can understand them"
"say what now"
My dad used to watch this show bc it’s hilarious. He’s been saying from the beginning that he thinks the camera crew is just messing with them and these guys don’t know it’s fake and I can’t agree more
this is like when you're playing with your friends when you're kids. just doin whatever you want, having a blast, making up nonsensical shit. honestly wish i could do that for a job
As an monster hunter player i can confirm that we regularly got kidnapped in the middle of nowhere by a skeleton that force us to hunt
sorry man, I'm the skeleton, no one was answering my SOS flairs :(
@@pigeonaticIm the stonish giant and im mad at you
@@pigeonaticmate I’m the tree no wayy!
I love how it’s like this horrifying horror movie tear stuff (or at least trying to be) and then you hear “these darn hootin’ n’ hollerin’ ghosts gon’ scare the overalls off a tractor driver real good”
i love the metaphors that southern americans use. someone tweeted about hearing a southern guy say "with my luck, it could be raining titties and i'd still look up and catch a dick." and i genuinely love that.
The reason the main characters keep accusing the skeleton men of killing the Stonish Giant is because they saw the skeleton men dragging its body across the forest and before that they heard a gunshot.
"Bigfoot's workin' with the Chupacabra!" An actual quote from this show.
And the hellhound too
A mirror, camera, and speaker is so terrifying for these guys because then it would feel like they’re seeing their own video
My day started off with a giant oak tree falling on my house but now Danny has posted watching my FAVORITE cryptid show. I got to meet Buck, Huckleberry, and Wild Bill in person at my local bigfoot festival and here's what I learned:
Buck: he's very friendly and easy going
Huckleberry: he's become heard of hearing and talks to every little kid he met like they were his grandkids
Wild Bill: cannot understand what he says in real life either and also has to pee a lot....like every 10 minutes
Lmao
Oh no, they left Jeff behind again, didn't they! D:
A giant tree falling? :0 Are you sure they didn’t bring the death cat along with them?
I can relate to Wild Bill tbh
@@legallypumpkin To which part? The not being easy to understand or the having to pee a lot? Or both? Cause the peeing thing is probably not healthy.
For y’all who don’t know, the leader of the group, Trapper, past away in 2019. Rest in Peace Trapper. ❤
rest in peace, trapper ❤️
I feel like Danny could make a series about reacting to this show specially and I'd enjoy every second of it
PLEASE 🙏
I literally never comment on videos, but I'm so happy you made a video about this show. I discovered this show a few years ago and watched every single episode. It's very entertaining, lol. They never get any monsters on camera, they run through the woods screaming when they're "chasing after a monster," and put so much effort into traps that never catch anything without the monster "escaping." Overall, a solid 10/10.
danny not being able to understand an accent thats not even strong is actually funny lmao
I was wondering if I was crazy, though I’m also from the south though lmfao
@@olivia-nq7ry I’m from the south and understood the accent perfectly
Lol, a bunch of southerners saying it's not that bad. I needed the subtitles for sure.
yea it was fairly easy to understand, im from the west coast
English isnt even my first language and I understood them well lmao
To answer your question: I work for a monster. They can be late on payments. And sometimes they just pay you in shells and gold teeth, but the trade in value is pretty good.
Never had problems with her health insurance plan either. So it’s not a bad job if you don’t get spooked easily
Sounds like a pirate though?
I should knoe I work at _AARRRRR_ bys.
I used to watch this show religiously. It started off acting like most monster-hunting shows (more self-aware though), but it evolved into a show not even trying to pass off as semi-real anymore. There have been human antagonists. I'll always love the show and the whole AIMS team though. And RIP Trapper. I was really sad when he passed
Edit: I made this comment before seeing the video and I see that the human antagonists storyline was literally one of the first things you brought up. Oh, and often times, Wild Bill does get subtitles
I loved this show! I’d always watch it with my grandma (who doesn’t speak English, so I translate for her) She’d always give them nicknames, call them silly, and I got to tell about creatures and cryptids to her.
Man, she listens to me all day. “Mi tesoro”, my treasure, that’s what she calls me.
that’s such a sweet story, beautiful souls
@@miraclelynnette2078 yeah i love her. I think she thinks i make up these creatures lolol
@@rylies7614 lol thanks i don’t open up on my personal life online but i had too for this
She’s so precious :)
this made me tear up from being so happy i miss my grandma😭
I almost passed away when I saw the notification
this show has been an inside joke in my family for years
also highly recommend whatever episode it is that huckleberry gets brainwashed or something and runs away to stand under a waterfall naked, then pisses himself in the side by side
and the one where jeff gets a minature skull stuck up his nose and they take it out with tweezers in a shed
NO PLZ THE NAKED HUCKLEBERRY IMAGERY IS COMING BACK
the funny thing is that when i was younger, me and my family used to watch mountain monsters on a daily basis when it first came out. we always found it funny and we still have inside jokes that are about the show even now lol
