As an exterminator, I can safely say bed bugs are quite possibly the only insect that house couldn’t have, they’re solely adapted to feeding on humans and can’t last long on other animals like ticks can
Those things have made me develop a psychological “itch”, I’ve busted out in hives before thanks to the stress I’ve developed thanks to having to deal with a bad case of them in a apartment complex I had to help refurbish.
Probably doesn’t have head or pubic lice either, as they have the same restrictions. The house probably has fleas though. Cat fleas will pretty much go for any mammal. ‘Cat’ is just a suggestion.
those things are the worst. I grew up in a family that did a lot of property management and I have many distinct memories of my dad dressing up like he was off to clean Chernobyl so that he could clear out evicted apartments without bringing any home.
There was outbreaks of them in Australia when I was over there 20 years ago, like entire hostels and hotels heavily infested. I went to one place that had just reopened after being treated for a week, 1st night I felt a tickle on my skin, threw the sheets back and lights on, 3 of them! I killed 2 and watched the other, it ran to wood frame of the bed an into a small crack, used a flashlight and there were at least a dozen more in there. I got some powder from the owners and put in it every single crack I could find. Thankfully did not get bit. Horrible creepy things.
Fun fact: going down into an underground watertank is always a bad idea because there is a chance they are filled with co2. Co2 is heavier than air so it seeps down there creating an invisible death trap for people trying to clean their tank and then all of a sudden become light headed and unable to climb the ladder back up.

@@n3tw0rk_n3k0 I dislike how accirate this is... "just shove a hammer into the next one you did fine. Time is money! Keep going!" Only reason Michael Meyers survived a concrete demo saw is because he came back from the dead anyway, so even if that had hit him in the neck like planned it wouldn't have STOPPED him
The nailed shut part is pretty common for basement or side doors. It is to prevent any burglars from easily pulling the doors open. Also, back in the day, there were animals large enough to break doors and steal food, or hurt you in the process if they get spooked.
I'd like to nominate a different creature as this monster's origin. The Hellbender. Hellbenders are the largest salamander, and amphibian period, in the US (Also the 4th largest in the world). They natively come from the eastern US already and have been there for millions of years (since before the dinosaurs bit the dust). I'd say its less of a stretch for them to extend their range west than for their relatives to come across the Bering Strait.
It could be some mutation or offshoot of the Hellbender salamander. Cuz Hellbenders usually reach about 1 ft-2ft long, I believe. But they are primarily on the East Coast, not on the west coast like California. But I do like Roanokes theory about it being Chinese giant salamanders that migrated over to the U.S. and mutated/evolved.
It wouldn't make that much sense for a water dependent animal to travel from the east to west coast. It would require going through either rivers or going through the coast down from the east coast and across central america and back up the hot and dry southwest. Makes more sense for amphibians to travel across the pacific through the Aleutians.
Jules is the real hero here honestly. She took out three of them, and also was the most reasonable voice. Granted, that's a low bar, but she's got way more protagonist energy than Dad-Whos-Name-I've-Forgotten.
@@avrie6668 Ah yes Beun, the crazy crack head who moved his family out to a house in the middle of the ass end of no where that continuously ignores all major red flags, who works on shit and drinks shitty water till he gets injured by a monster and has to be saved by his more bad ass wife. Or did you mean Ben, the guy that did all the same things but is still a complete and total disappointment?
That back door part was real af. I remember getting the house to myself for a couple of days, goofing around and drinking. Went to the kitchen to get some water and saw my back door open. I freaked the fuck out, like grab the gun level of panic. Turns out my dog had learned to open it. Regardless, the fear that someone is CURRENTLY in your house is one of the top 10 most gutting feelings
the explination at 33:25 actually lines up really well with the fact that Giant salamanders are found in North America, in the form of Hellbenders, and there was a Canadian Giant Salamander in the fossil reccord not that long ago that was almost double the size of Chinese giant salamanders.
Man what a unique looking monster design, I sure hope no big-budget TV show/movie productions steal it's totally unique one-of-a-kind non-generic look.
@@BlueTeam-John-Fred-Linda-Kelly have you ever seen the movie The Monster? Came out about 2016 and the creature in that movie looked pretty much like the giant salamanders in this one, but had white eyes and was way more badass!. And there was only one creature...until the end.
That’s why I think Tremors is absolutely horror. Everybody did the smartest things they could do AND didn’t call each other a liar and walk into the monster’s mouth out of spite, we never saw the monsters until the characters did, and even knowing everything about them is terrifying because you don’t SEE them even if you know they’re there
I'm a big creature feature/practical effects fan, and sadly the pre-release interview for this movie actually had me hyped. "We hired a contortionist to do the movements in the suit which looks reaaally creepy! You're gonna love this creature feature we made!" And then the camera constantly cuts back and forth so you never see it moving for more than a couple seconds at a time.
On top of that the creature is really shit in design, you can very easily read that it's a human with makeup, not even the pitch black nature of those scenes save it.
Honestly I'm not all that strong and I could probably take these things in a fight. If I'm in a forest, and being hunted by creatures I could escape by WALKING away from them... Yeah gimme a big stick, and I could come out on top. God have mercy on these things if I get a hoe, sledgehammer, shovel, or you know... A gun.
Dear Roanoke, America's oldest reptile store, The East Bay Vivarium, is located in Berkeley, which is immediately next to Oakland. I think that is what inspired the setting for the story.
One thing i'm starting to learn from these films is to not ever trust an old house or secluded land that's been willed to you. The monsters design was cool, that's about it.
@@princeshadow13 I would totally live there, so long I get to get balls deep in some squishy fishy-squid frog holes 😂😂😂 I'd be alright with all that mess. I would love to be a "Deep One", if ya get me. Even lived in a very small town like Innsmouth, but smaller and with more meth addicts. Probably as ruinous too, though, I could be wrong about the amount ov decay.
So, a few fun facts about Amphibians and Axolotls: - Amphibians, like Roanoke said, are the link between fish and reptiles, and as such get the best of both worlds. They can breathe in water and on land, even if they need to stay wet to breathe properly on land still a pretty sweet deal. But aside from that, they also get indeterminate growth, which is something only water living animals possess. For those who don't know what that is, it means the animal can keep growing bigger and bigger, so long as there is enough food and room for it or it's not killed in some way, be it disease or predators, though generally amphibians won't grow massive because that would lock them to having to live in the water where gravity affects them less. Cool perk, can't really use it. - Axolotl have a thing called neoteny, which means that cute pink little salamander looking thing we are used to seeing ((They can actually be a lot of other colors like blue and green too)) is their baby form, which they pretty much keep their entire life, because for their environment, basically one cave pool outside of Mexico City ((They are basically extinct in the wild as of 2022)) has very little nutrition. So, staying a small form that doesn't need as much is better for them. If for whatever reason they do end up growing up, if there's more food or space, they lose their trademark frilly gills and pretty much look like every other salamander ever. I was gonna say something else, but I think it can just be summed up as "Nature is a weird bitch, but Humans are even weirder" Our experience is very much shaped by our senses and what we have, which is why it might seem weird to have no eyes or no true stomach like a Platypus, but they can obviously make due with what they have. Very much depends on what role you fill in the grand chain of life ultimately.
I feel like this should have taken place in Florida instead of Oregon. It would have been more believeable. As for dunking on the west coast, I live on the east coast too and approve of this sentiment.
No, I live and grew up here in Oregon, along the coast. And it fits. There are a lot ov rural areas in this state and a lot of rednecks, my pa is one, lots ov meth and guns. And beavers are all over along the cascades. Weird shit goes on around here all the time but most folks only hear about what goes on in the valley, a region starting at the border with Washington and going South. The valley is filled with all the liberals while most others live along either side. We mostly get along, but like everywhere else our politicians always fvck things up and only give a damn about the regions they live in. So Florida and Oregon are only so different when it comes to the amount ov wealth and the climate. We get rain more often and probably have the same amount ov white trash (like myself) as Florida. But I don't know what they put in their water because they're fvcking crazy. Must be that super meth!
Something about axolotls - they're the "nymph" form of adult salamanders, but more or less are a forever-baby. They CAN complete the metamorphosis into an "adult" version, but this is incredibly rare and shortens the axolotl's lifespan significantly. Neat little guys.
Hang in there pal. It does get better... TBI from IED here. It was really bad at first. It just takes time, and strength to bear down and push. You'll make it.
Sometimes I fall into the abyss thinking about what kind of person I'd be if it hadn't happened. It can be really tough, dude, I'm just happy I have someone to lean on. Also, dogs.
I love how they have all these cgi monsters, but when the kid gets pulled out of the window, the best they could do was Christopher in a black morph suit.
this is certainly a film. The fact it just sits there screaming at the floor because it had to consider the idea that something is faster than it is quite hilarious and mind boggling.
At the beginning the axolotl is clearly in the middle of a large circulating shared water situation, which means the water in his tank is going to be the same water as the other tanks between 70 and 80 because that's what majority of tropical fish require. Axolotls on the other hand require 50 to 60° water. They will also become cannibalistic when they're stressed, actually it's moreover they eat a lot especially if they're overheating because you've increased their metabolism. They will eat their substrate they will eat the plants in their aquarium They will eat the decorations if they can fit them in their mouth and yeah they'll eat each other. So the axolotl analogy actually makes even more sense 😂
Just wanted to say thanks for what you do Roanoke. I had an interview for a Microbiologist position and when they asked what the difference between a bacterium and a virus was it was actually some of your vids/definitions that instantly came to me. Feeling really good about my chance.
With how much the US spends on maintaining them, I do believe the US number +-20%. Russia likely has the number they say but many might not be functional. Still we are better now than we were in the early 80's. That wasn't enough to glass the planet but it would have been a very rough time. I think the estimate was 30% of the Earth population would pass in the first year. Now if MAD were to be enacted, I think the estimate is something like 7% of the world population would pass. Most of it would be in Europe.
We almost certainly have more than declared, upkept to a functional level, while Russia 100% has more than declared, with most in a state of total disrepair. Our military budget is absurd, and we genuinely spend enough to keep up our nukes, while Russia hasn't even upkept their tanks, never mind their nukes--the money gets "lost" because it's easy to hide corruption in maintenance budgets.
The lobotomy from Bioshock Infinite made me come close to a panic attack, had to get up and walk away or I would have been out. So thanks Roanoke for reminding me while I was happily chowing down on a burrito. I felt my stomach go. Jokes aside that is a monstrous thing to do to someone. As always thanks for effort you put into these, always look forward to another biology lesson.
I feel like those creatures were very aware of the younger daughters location a lot of the movie. Maybe it was a strong scent she was releasing that they were always able to find? Salamanders have a very good sense of smell.
Can confirm, strange creatures showing up on a building site with a bunch of rough arses with infinite tools which can be easily repuprosed for painful tasks is a good way to get nowhere
There’s a movie made in the early 2000’s called the burrowers, that’s a crazy creature I think you should check out. Bites to paralyze, then waits a few days while you rot just right to then eat you alive slowly.
Broo yes! I literally commented that a minute ago. Because the first thing I thought of with the title talking about how slow the monsters were, was the burrowers! Was actually a rather good movie in my opinion, I've watched it two or three times over the years

@@ningamer5 are you thinking of Deep Rising? It took place on a cruise ship there with a giant monster that had tentacles coming off of it that usually grabbed the people and eat them.

Another great video 😁👍 Love your content, please never stop! My dad suffered multiple strokes over the years, one during his sleep, one while driving in the car with my mother. She realized something was wrong when he started to slur his words and she directly got off the Autobahn and to the nearby hospital. When your brain clocks out on you, you pretty much lose the game.
Hey Roanoke, I dunno if you take suggestions, but I’d really think you’d find interest in the flora and fauna of Deep Rock Galactic. Most of the environments are entirely underground and the creatures are possibly herbivorous, carnivorous, and lithovorous (I hope thats a word), and there is a new season coming out with new variants of enemies. Plus its just a fun game to play!
Considering the history of just how big some amphibians used to get (crocodile-sized salamanders for example), then getting this big isn’t far fetched. Becoming somewhat ape-like though would take far longer to accomplish. Perhaps rather than the last ice age, they came through during one of the ice ages from hundreds of thousands of years ago? Same route BTW, just much earlier. Also, I think you might enjoy the bear monster from Omen or the mutant lizards from Aberration.
@@Abramus5250 or he could mean the mutated bear monster from Annihilation? I've seen thousands of horror movies over the years and that bear scared me worse than anything else I've ever seen before.
As much as I LOVE this channel and all of his hard work, it makes me a bit sad... Roanoke will never know that extremely exciting and comfy feeling you get from seeing a new upload from Roanoke Gaming 😢
There are many species of salamanders on the Pacific Coast, including a few species in the genus Dicamptodon which are "giant" salamanders. I've seen them eat whole mice, garter snakes, and even other salamanders that were barely smaller than the one eating them. I had one as a pet for about 10 years, and they will eat anything that will fit in their mouth and are way faster than you'd expect a salamander to be. But the species that has the most terrifying teeth is the Arboreal Salamander, which is one of several species in Northern California that cannot swim at any point in their life cycle, and mainly live in oak trees around here. Those things will make you bleed.
You should do a video on the Silent Hill Shattered Memory monsters. Turns out the monsters you encounter changes its appearance based on what you observe in the world.
Bother fun fact about xyotols is that the reason they look like that is because they are stuck in their juvenile form. They don’t produce the chemical needed to begin the transition into their full adult form
Speaking of tetanus, I recall a few years ago, there was an unvaccinated kid who caught tetanus. His folks took him to the hospital for treatment, and after his recovery (and gods know how much in medical bills), his parents refused to have him vaccinated... like REALLY?+
The Halloween candy thing had me laughing, not wanting the kids to consume too much sugar, we hide most of it and eat it once the kids have been sent to bed. Usually while watching Netflix or fail videos.
I gotta say, I've been watching for a long time, and I love watching this channel and learning more about evolution,mutations, and microbiology. I recommend this stuff to all my friends whenever we watch horror movies cuz I'm always looking to see if you covered it. Love this stuff and keep up the amazing work!

As an Oregonian, I feel a need to point out (after multiple years of drought conditions in most parts of the southern state) that they do no get 90 inches of rain, which is one of the reasons why it goes up like a tinder box on an annual basis. Please pardon my pedantism 😅. Amazing video as always though!
I honestly like the new format, I was at first sad that you had to change it because of exterior factors like people just staying for the movie description, but now, I realised that it do make the science part more digestible, which is a big plus for me. Glad to be there!

That whole inheritance talk reminded me of when i got my uncle's inheritance. Dude was from my dad's side and absolutely hated him. For whatever reason he just wanted nothing to do with him at some ooint and wrote him out of practically everything he could. Unfortunately for him, he forgot to write my dad out of his will completely, leading to my dad inheriting half of his property. Unfortunately he wasn't alive at the time, but fortunately for me I was, so for whatever legal reason all of that 60k went to me. So that was a pretty nice start to life. Or, it would've been if i wasnt still in high school for another two years and needing to pay rent with no actual free time to get a job. Moral of the story, if you hate someone make sure you actually write them out of your will if they were in there, or else you may end uo giving their kid half your house's worth of cash
39:05 kind of reminds me of a gumball episode where they were playing dodge or daar and Nicole had this weird thing on her head that kept second guessing her😂 the joys of having younglings in the house that make you watch all of their shows...also, this movie has to have had the most useless display of self-preservation, common sense and survival instinct in the history of horror movies. The inspiration of this script was "dumbass"
I like the new format of mixing the summary and the science explanations. I find that some of the subjects in science explanations aren't my cup of tea but always like the summary. In those cases its like if in lord of the rings you saw all of the action first then needed to watch Frodo and Sam walk for the next 3 hours.
It’s very hard to hide the fact that you are maintaining a nuclear warhead, let alone an extra 50. Each one takes dozens of people and millions of dollars every year just to maintain. So while the US might be hiding an extra like 5 maybe, the number we publicly know wouldn’t be very far off of the actual amount

I think it would be interesting if roanoke would look at the species from destiny. I know it's not the most popular game now but it would be interesting
I actually believe that these are not Chinese giant salamanders but a variant of them that lives in America called Hellbender salamander they don't get as big as the Chinese species but they are still very large for a salamander some being as long as a human arm they are typically found in the middle of the somewhat following the Mississippi River perhaps they could have been more plentiful at a time and have reached the area retreating into the caves and growing to this massive size scene in the movie
I love how you are more and more finding you voice, or rather, telling the truth. Life uses us all as different pieces on the board. Glad you are grateful you aren't a pawn.
On the Phineas Gage tangent I’ve always heard the story of his accident and his recovery, particularly with people who said he became more aggressive and rude but I’ve got to be honest I’ve always thought that “yeah, I think I would be pretty pissed off in general for a long time if it had happened to me”. I mean the guy left his home for work and when he came back he couldn’t chew a steak anymore.
I was trying to remember this movie. So I wanna point out that the family just UP AND LEFT their old life, they run a pet store and they seemingly left it, they also brought pillows, blankets, food and other stuff for the new house WITHOUT even seeing if it was in livable condition, like wtf??? Also, I vaguely remember something and it was something about how the house was discovered, the info was really not very straightforward, it was really weird how they said it, idr exactly what, though. That house was not in good condition, but they decided to live there anyways?? OH, one more thing I remembered, so the last time the Realtor comes to the house and before she leaves I think someone mentions the time, and they show her leaving when it's still decently bright out, so like, just before sunset? And when she gets to her car, it's nighttime? How fkn long was that walk??

I'd like to nominate a different creature as this monster's origin. The Hellbender. Hellbenders are the largest salamander, and amphibian period, in the US (Also the 4th largest in the world). They natively come from the eastern US already and have been there for millions of years (since before the dinosaurs bit the dust). I'd say its less of a stretch for them to extend their range west than for their relatives to come across the Bering Strait.
You're a smart guy.
It could be some mutation or offshoot of the Hellbender salamander. Cuz Hellbenders usually reach about 1 ft-2ft long, I believe. But they are primarily on the East Coast, not on the west coast like California. But I do like Roanokes theory about it being Chinese giant salamanders that migrated over to the U.S. and mutated/evolved.
It wouldn't make that much sense for a water dependent animal to travel from the east to west coast. It would require going through either rivers or going through the coast down from the east coast and across central america and back up the hot and dry southwest. Makes more sense for amphibians to travel across the pacific through the Aleutians.
Jules is the real hero here honestly. She took out three of them, and also was the most reasonable voice. Granted, that's a low bar, but she's got way more protagonist energy than Dad-Whos-Name-I've-Forgotten.
His name is Beun but I'll forget that so he'll be known as crack head for me ❤
The dad is a dumbass and gave me side character vibes 😂
@@avrie6668 Ah yes Beun, the crazy crack head who moved his family out to a house in the middle of the ass end of no where that continuously ignores all major red flags, who works on shit and drinks shitty water till he gets injured by a monster and has to be saved by his more bad ass wife.
Or did you mean Ben, the guy that did all the same things but is still a complete and total disappointment?

That back door part was real af. I remember getting the house to myself for a couple of days, goofing around and drinking. Went to the kitchen to get some water and saw my back door open.

@@Mike-qz4by Mf you lucky I couldn’t find you
the explination at 33:25 actually lines up really well with the fact that Giant salamanders are found in North America, in the form of Hellbenders, and there was a Canadian Giant Salamander in the fossil reccord not that long ago that was almost double the size of Chinese giant salamanders.

I goddamn love listening to your "These people are being stupid, let's see what NOT to do" story telling. I appreciate your work.
That’s why I think Tremors is absolutely horror. Everybody did the smartest things they could do AND didn’t call each other a liar and walk into the monster’s mouth out of spite, we never saw the monsters until the characters did, and even knowing everything about them is terrifying because you don’t SEE them even if you know they’re there
This might be your most deranged episode to date with all the side tangents, the quips, jokes, memes, i'm all in for this
Roanoke is able to scratch an itch no other RUclips could. Movie? Science? AND memes?
*chefs kiss*
"Now we move on to the place with real monsters- California. "
Had me in tears 😂
I'm a big creature feature/practical effects fan, and sadly the pre-release interview for this movie actually had me hyped.
"We hired a contortionist to do the movements in the suit which looks reaaally creepy! You're gonna love this creature feature we made!"
And then the camera constantly cuts back and forth so you never see it moving for more than a couple seconds at a time.
On top of that the creature is really shit in design, you can very easily read that it's a human with makeup, not even the pitch black nature of those scenes save it.
Well that’s unfortunate on all points there
You might like the show All of Us Are Dead; the zombie movements are all choreography and they must be contortionists
@@jbear3478 Hah, I totally misread your meaning about choreography and thought it was another zombie musical. I will totally give it a look.
@@anecro So it turns out it was a full rubber suit and the contortionist nearly suffocated in the aquatic basement scenes.
I dig the Roanoke Gaming riff. Caught me off-guard. As a California native, I approve of your opinion.
XD thanks brother
I love hearing Roanoke say he can take the creatures he covers in a fight lmao
Honestly I'm not all that strong and I could probably take these things in a fight. If I'm in a forest, and being hunted by creatures I could escape by WALKING away from them... Yeah gimme a big stick, and I could come out on top. God have mercy on these things if I get a hoe, sledgehammer, shovel, or you know... A gun.
Dear Roanoke, America's oldest reptile store, The East Bay Vivarium, is located in Berkeley, which is immediately next to Oakland. I think that is what inspired the setting for the story.
One thing i'm starting to learn from these films is to not ever trust an old house or secluded land that's been willed to you. The monsters design was cool, that's about it.
Ruin has come to our family...
Next you'll say that we shouldn't go to a town called Innsmouth
@@princeshadow13 I would totally live there, so long I get to get balls deep in some squishy fishy-squid frog holes 😂😂😂
I'd be alright with all that mess.
I would love to be a "Deep One", if ya get me.
Even lived in a very small town like Innsmouth, but smaller and with more meth addicts. Probably as ruinous too, though, I could be wrong about the amount ov decay.
I like how you obviously put much more thought into this film than it’s writers
So, a few fun facts about Amphibians and Axolotls:
- Amphibians, like Roanoke said, are the link between fish and reptiles, and as such get the best of both worlds. They can breathe in water and on land, even if they need to stay wet to breathe properly on land still a pretty sweet deal. But aside from that, they also get indeterminate growth, which is something only water living animals possess. For those who don't know what that is, it means the animal can keep growing bigger and bigger, so long as there is enough food and room for it or it's not killed in some way, be it disease or predators, though generally amphibians won't grow massive because that would lock them to having to live in the water where gravity affects them less. Cool perk, can't really use it.
- Axolotl have a thing called neoteny, which means that cute pink little salamander looking thing we are used to seeing ((They can actually be a lot of other colors like blue and green too)) is their baby form, which they pretty much keep their entire life, because for their environment, basically one cave pool outside of Mexico City ((They are basically extinct in the wild as of 2022)) has very little nutrition. So, staying a small form that doesn't need as much is better for them. If for whatever reason they do end up growing up, if there's more food or space, they lose their trademark frilly gills and pretty much look like every other salamander ever.
I was gonna say something else, but I think it can just be summed up as "Nature is a weird bitch, but Humans are even weirder" Our experience is very much shaped by our senses and what we have, which is why it might seem weird to have no eyes or no true stomach like a Platypus, but they can obviously make due with what they have. Very much depends on what role you fill in the grand chain of life ultimately.
5:44 That’s a very modern-looking dinosaur toy for the 70’s.
Guess they didnt exactly *scale* up to our expectations huh 😔
(Know its a amphibian but let me have my pun 😓)
HA!
I feel like this should have taken place in Florida instead of Oregon. It would have been more believeable.
As for dunking on the west coast, I live on the east coast too and approve of this sentiment.
Those things would have to show up in a place with low gun ownership if it popped its head up in Florida.
@@Solidrum You're confusing Florida with Texas. A better comment would have been to suggest monsters are terrified of Florida Man™ :P
@@bigtiredpotato I live in Florida, and we have a good number of gun owners here. But yeah, Florida Man would take them head on.
Don't really feel like this would work in rural Florida, they are used to large reptiles and have plenty of guns and unhinged people.
No, I live and grew up here in Oregon, along the coast. And it fits.
There are a lot ov rural areas in this state and a lot of rednecks, my pa is one, lots ov meth and guns.
And beavers are all over along the cascades.
Weird shit goes on around here all the time but most folks only hear about what goes on in the valley, a region starting at the border with Washington and going South. The valley is filled with all the liberals while most others live along either side.
We mostly get along, but like everywhere else our politicians always fvck things up and only give a damn about the regions they live in.
So Florida and Oregon are only so different when it comes to the amount ov wealth and the climate.
We get rain more often and probably have the same amount ov white trash (like myself) as Florida.
But I don't know what they put in their water because they're fvcking crazy.
Must be that super meth!
Watching Roanoke constantly get sidetracked is like looking in a mirror when I’m trying to talk about stuff 😂
Something about axolotls - they're the "nymph" form of adult salamanders, but more or less are a forever-baby. They CAN complete the metamorphosis into an "adult" version, but this is incredibly rare and shortens the axolotl's lifespan significantly. Neat little guys.
I love this new format. Its very conductive to my adhd and the moving between science and film help keep me engaged.
The good thing about TBI's and the ensuing memory issues? Every Roanoke upload is a surprise!
Well theres the silver lining! lol
Hang in there pal. It does get better... TBI from IED here. It was really bad at first. It just takes time, and strength to bear down and push. You'll make it.
Sometimes I fall into the abyss thinking about what kind of person I'd be if it hadn't happened. It can be really tough, dude, I'm just happy I have someone to lean on. Also, dogs.

@@RoanokeGaming EXCELLENT.
@@RoanokeGaming How many? 👀
@@Kernwadi FEEEEEEEEEeEEEEET
@@Nathan_Coley As many as possible...
this is certainly a film.
The fact it just sits there screaming at the floor because it had to consider the idea that something is faster than it is quite hilarious and mind boggling.
At the beginning the axolotl is clearly in the middle of a large circulating shared water situation, which means the water in his tank is going to be the same water as the other tanks between 70 and 80 because that's what majority of tropical fish require. Axolotls on the other hand require 50 to 60° water. They will also become cannibalistic when they're stressed, actually it's moreover they eat a lot especially if they're overheating because you've increased their metabolism. They will eat their substrate they will eat the plants in their aquarium They will eat the decorations if they can fit them in their mouth and yeah they'll eat each other. So the axolotl analogy actually makes even more sense 😂
Just wanted to say thanks for what you do Roanoke. I had an interview for a Microbiologist position and when they asked what the difference between a bacterium and a virus was it was actually some of your vids/definitions that instantly came to me. Feeling really good about my chance.

With how expensive and difficult it is to maintain nukes, there is no way Russia or the US have the numbers they claim to have.
not even close, which I wont complain about. We really do not need these things
Literally no way of knowing that. They might even have more.
With how much the US spends on maintaining them, I do believe the US number +-20%. Russia likely has the number they say but many might not be functional. Still we are better now than we were in the early 80's. That wasn't enough to glass the planet but it would have been a very rough time. I think the estimate was 30% of the Earth population would pass in the first year. Now if MAD were to be enacted, I think the estimate is something like 7% of the world population would pass. Most of it would be in Europe.
Doesn't matter, one nuclear warhead is one too many
We almost certainly have more than declared, upkept to a functional level, while Russia 100% has more than declared, with most in a state of total disrepair. Our military budget is absurd, and we genuinely spend enough to keep up our nukes, while Russia hasn't even upkept their tanks, never mind their nukes--the money gets "lost" because it's easy to hide corruption in maintenance budgets.
The lobotomy from Bioshock Infinite made me come close to a panic attack, had to get up and walk away or I would have been out. So thanks Roanoke for reminding me while I was happily chowing down on a burrito. I felt my stomach go. Jokes aside that is a monstrous thing to do to someone. As always thanks for effort you put into these, always look forward to another biology lesson.
I feel like those creatures were very aware of the younger daughters location a lot of the movie. Maybe it was a strong scent she was releasing that they were always able to find? Salamanders have a very good sense of smell.
Can confirm, strange creatures showing up on a building site with a bunch of rough arses with infinite tools which can be easily repuprosed for painful tasks is a good way to get nowhere
There’s a movie made in the early 2000’s called the burrowers, that’s a crazy creature I think you should check out. Bites to paralyze, then waits a few days while you rot just right to then eat you alive slowly.
Broo yes! I literally commented that a minute ago. Because the first thing I thought of with the title talking about how slow the monsters were, was the burrowers! Was actually a rather good movie in my opinion, I've watched it two or three times over the years

@@ningamer5 are you thinking of Deep Rising? It took place on a cruise ship there with a giant monster that had tentacles coming off of it that usually grabbed the people and eat them.

How can I describe it the movie that I mentioned also has scene were character use blowtorch to keep monster away
Also did you know about this vampire movie were cowboy looking like characters hunt vampires I don't know name of this movie too
There's a bathroom scene were husband fight his wife that get turned into vampire and a scene were a character
I think he use a book with cross mark on it or it was Cross instead in dark room to fight vampire I really liked that scene Because in it you can only see character and entire area around him is dark so he has to use his speed to stop vampire from attacking in dark

Hey Roanoke, I dunno if you take suggestions, but I’d really think you’d find interest in the flora and fauna of Deep Rock Galactic.

Considering the history of just how big some amphibians used to get (crocodile-sized salamanders for example), then getting this big isn’t far fetched. Becoming somewhat ape-like though would take far longer to accomplish. Perhaps rather than the last ice age, they came through during one of the ice ages from hundreds of thousands of years ago? Same route BTW, just much earlier.

Killed me on the "Raccoons are at it again" remark 😂😂
There are many species of salamanders on the Pacific Coast, including a few species in the genus Dicamptodon which are "giant" salamanders. I've seen them eat whole mice, garter snakes, and even other salamanders that were barely smaller than the one eating them. I had one as a pet for about 10 years, and they will eat anything that will fit in their mouth and are way faster than you'd expect a salamander to be. But the species that has the most terrifying teeth is the Arboreal Salamander, which is one of several species in Northern California that cannot swim at any point in their life cycle, and mainly live in oak trees around here. Those things will make you bleed.
You should do a video on the Silent Hill Shattered Memory monsters. Turns out the monsters you encounter changes its appearance based on what you observe in the world.

That whole inheritance talk reminded me of when i got my uncle's inheritance.
Dude was from my dad's side and absolutely hated him. For whatever reason he just wanted nothing to do with him at some ooint and wrote him out of practically everything he could.

It’s very hard to hide the fact that you are maintaining a nuclear warhead, let alone an extra 50. Each one takes dozens of people and millions of dollars every year just to maintain. So while the US might be hiding an extra like 5 maybe, the number we publicly know wouldn’t be very far off of the actual amount

So I wanna point out that the family just UP AND LEFT their old life, they run a pet store and they seemingly left it, they also brought pillows, blankets, food and other stuff for the new house WITHOUT even seeing if it was in livable condition, like wtf???
Also, I vaguely remember something and it was something about how the house was discovered, the info was really not very straightforward, it was really weird how they said it, idr exactly what, though.
That house was not in good condition, but they decided to live there anyways??
OH, one more thing I remembered, so the last time the Realtor comes to the house and before she leaves I think someone mentions the time, and they show her leaving when it's still decently bright out, so like, just before sunset?
