During the Russian Experiment known as the Kola Superdeep Borehole, the project was shut down due to the heat being underestimated after drilling 12 kilometers into Earth. But we all know the real reason. No, the real reason is because the Russians stumbled across a species ending fungus that would threaten to destroy all of humanity if not contained properly. In todays episode, we will discuss what this fungus is, how it takes over the body and ultimately what are the results!

Thanks for watching guys! Hope everyone enjoyed!
This video was terrifying.
Happy Thursday!
I’m sure I will. Should look at the wildfire virus from TWD tho!
Big oof forever. Long live big oof
I still say oof and whoever said you can't say oof from beyond 2021 is pretty cringe. Like me.
I love the fact that Roanoke never skips the chance to point out how inept Government is at being Government.
It's so immersive.
Governments are gonna government
I refuse to attribute the world governments actions as inept any longer. They are outright malicious. We are living in a Dr Richter mouse experiment
Ain't off the mark either! XD
Anyone who understands what the government does, and how badly they do it, are prone to call that shit out.
To be fair, poking around where we shouldn't is just the kind of thing people do in movies. Otherwise the film would just be a crew going
"Hey, what's this?"
"It's dangerous. Leave it alone and file a report about it."
*80 minutes of a man filing paperwork*
Or you can make it the ending of a movie. Like you see the story through a previous victim until they meet their end and the new protagonist just ends it with taking any chances.
Ironically, the soviet union probably would do this. Like the thing they were most known for other than the nukes was the bureaucracy. Layers and layers of bureaucracy. The cold war was only cold because a spy couldn't be bothered with the 'red' tape.
Thats why a good horror story needs a good thing forcing the protagonist into a shitty situation. Dead space is pretty good at it.
Nah you can still make
Your characters be smart while making bad things happen, or have an actual explanation around bad decisions
That is kinda why I like the ones where even if they are smart or have common sense there is something that changes how they think or what happens was forced upon them
Hey Roanoke! I worked with bronze for a time, doing both crucible work as well as being the person who unloaded the burnout kiln. When unloading the kiln (1500+ degrees Fahrenheit) I had to wear what I call the space beekeeper suit. Every inch of skin was covered, and the material itself was a metallic silver on the outside and wool on the inside. Certain kinds of wool are actually fire resistant! Alright, I’ll get to the point: the worst burns I got weren’t from the kiln or the crucible, but from accidentally touching a bronze piece after belt sanding it. Contact burns like that don’t hurt so much at first, so a lot of people think they’re fine. They’re not. It’s important to run the burnt area under cold water IMMEDIATELY to stop the heat from getting ‘trapped’, I guess. I don’t know exactly how it works, but while the top layer of skin feels fine, the heat just kind of compounds in the layer below. It’s likely that the protagonist dousing herself with cold water could stop her from becoming one big blister, but I’m not sure how she would survive the shock from going to extreme heat to a colder environment. When leaving the kiln we have to make sure to not just strip everything off right away to avoid shock. In addition, extreme ambient heat can give you a weird kind of high, making you less worried about literally boiling. Sorry this is so long, but I hope I can give a bit of insight into how humans react to extreme heat.
It works the same way that resting grilled meat after cooking works. Your exterior layer of skin is really moist. The hissing sound you hear when you burn yourself is the moisture in your epidermis evaporating really fast!
But the muscles and dermis beneath your outer layer of skin doesn’t have this added layer of fat and moisture. Even after you take the piece of meat off the grill, it’s still cooking inside. Let your burgers rest 5-10 minutes after grilling to lock in the flavor ;)
Was very interesting
I got burnt the other day and immediately ran it under freezing water for like 10 minutes and it actually kept me from blistering and experiencing more pain later! It was the first time I’ve tried it.
I've also heard that using heat will help the same, had a buddy on an oil rig run his neck against a hot pipe. Went to the rigs nurse ASAP and she used a hair dryer on high heat, then med, then low, then cool to draw the heat out. He doesn't hardly have a blemish now.
Figured I'd share.
You know, to me this seems more horrifying than any of the other zombie infections. In a lot of them you're just "gone". Your body is operating entirely on autopilot and you no longer have awareness of anything.
But here? You're fully aware of what's going on, what your body is doing, and that you aren't the one at the helm. It's also horrifying with the body horror stuff, as you'd be experiencing and feeling all of that, rather than your consciousness being completely gone or your body controlled by something else.
So you're more like a Voodoo zombie?

The scariest part about cordiceps has to be that it does not take over the nervous system. It basically builds a second one by itself and takes over. Which also has one really weird implication. The fungus has to make decisions itself as it cannot depend on the ant to do so.
It isn't like it's a bunch of neurons, it's much simpler, the fungi that made the ant go higher and made it bite down once it got high up spread much better, all the fungus originally would have done is infect the ant and kill it, grow from it's corpse and sprout, then it would be found by other ants and moved into either a garbage pile or buried in the dirt they dug their tunnels with, probably not infecting many other ants since it won't get much airflow. Any mutation that made the ant climb would help, but the ant would probably keep climbing and fall off it would still be better than not interfering, so the next iteration would be using the ant's visual input to figure out where the highest point is, then biting down and locking the mandibles, so it can't fall.
Even so, it's less of a problem for ants than covid was for us.
In fact it's only the O. unilateralis core clade that cause the ants to bite down, there are several subspecies like O. unilateralis kniphofioides which don't seem to affect behaviour in such a seeming beneficial way, ants infected by it just walk to the mossy base of a tree and die. Neither of these fungi make decisions or do anything to the ant's brain directly, they exhibit what's called secondary metabolism, which a lot of fungi do, basically it's metabolic pathways for producing enzymes and hormones that don't affect the fungus, but the ant, the enzymes that allow the spores to get into the ant's exoskeleton are part of it, the neurotransmitters that make the ant want to climb, and the neurotransmitters that make it bite down when it is dying. That's all it needs, because unlike human brains, ant's neural ganglia are pretty simple, you give it one chemical and it goes and gets food, another it eats food, another it digs a hole, another it climbs a tree, a mix of a few, it digs a hole in the tree to look for food.
@@domvasta Fascinating really. And I wonder if the same concept could apply to humans, but since our neuronstransmitters are more complicated, could a fungus exist that just ups what it does to the ant? A fungus that can create cocktails of chemicals instead of just the couple it needs to coax an ant? A fungus that could coax us in simple ways, effectively making us zombie like, with only a few commands being issued to our bodies. Or perhaps unlike a zombie, and just push us in subtle ways to be more social or whatever the fungi needs to propagate, at least at first. Or! lol, like in the movie where our muscles are being pushed to do certain things, but I dont think that would go very far as it would call too much attention and be stopped by outside forces too easily. Still freaky though.
You are going to have have problems with humans like that because there are a few types of people like fight, flight, and freeze.
The vodka/ice water combination actually makes a great deal of sense. Alcohol causes your veins to dilate, leading to increased blood flow to the body’s surface and extremities. In a cold environment, that will help lower your core body temperature. If the fungus can just barely survive at a regular human body temperature, lowering it just might prevent it from taking root. Hopefully without killing yourself through hypothermia.
(this is also why you should never try to counteract hypothermia by drinking alcohol, despite a depressing number of people and pop culture pieces seeming to think it helps; drunking alcohol does make you feel warmer, sure, but you are directly counteracting your body’s efforts to conserve heat near your vital organs, making the problem worse)
Misinformation is a really big issue .. it's such a common problem that even ppl who actively try to counteract misinformation can sometimes cause it without meaning to of course. It's especially awful when misinformation can put your life in real danger.. 😓 I wish & hope in the near future more & more ppl help try to counteract this problem but all we can do is individuals is try to help others see the light it's really up to them to follow
Instead of carrying a bottle of vodka into the cold with you, carry a chocolate bar or some sweet cakes! It just might save your life in a pinch
@@cvi4057 I carry some tic tacs. They're pure sugar even though they claim to claim to be 0 grams of sugar per serving. They're like .5 of a gram. If you start feeling dizzy out in the wilderness or long hikes and you know you're hydrated its more likely than not hypoglycemic shock. It can happen even if you are not diabetic.
Oh, just the veins, you say? Wrong. Not just the veins. Further, dilated veins doesn't lead to increased blood flow to extremities and surface because veins do not transport blood to those places.
@@thetacticalpuertorican Smart. People focus too much on carbs and protein when they go out into the woods. They aren't entirely wrong, having a light source of dense protein and carbs in your pack is necessary, but so to is sugar. Thats why trail mix usually has M&Ms or something mixed in with it. Not the best choice personally, but it works. Personally I go with freeze dried fruit or dehydrated berries. Your Tic-tacs work too. Specially the orange ones, but I can't remember why off the top of my head. They're light and you get a lot more than just the sugar you need.
But specifically tying into why sugary things can save your life in the cold is because it forces your body to produce insulin and that raises your core temp for anyone wondering why. Be safe out there, and have fun 😁
"Spicy egg" and "led dispenser", your creative way with words on avoiding the video getting taken down is amazing.
Only got one question..... How the hell did they build the facility at the bottom with the giant fungus growth sitting right there. Did the Fungus growth write the construction crew a pass? that it wouldn't mess with them? Maybe the fungus and the crew hung out, talked about their dreams, and what they did for fun. They all exchanged numbers before they left, Fungus is now a RUclipsr, talks about 16th Century Art on his channel..... Great stuff.
The fungus crawled up from the depth to say hello?
The fungus mold was at the very last level. They have built levels, did their subterranean research and everything was fine. And at the lower levels they had to wear protective suits with oxygen tanks anyway - because of 200 °C. They couldn't get sick because they had suits on them.
It was OK for a while, probably for a few days, so they even built something at the lowest level.
But someone must have bring the mold on the exterior of their suit to the living area on the lower levels at one point.
I want to guess that it was down there and fairly inactive, dormant if you will, but by them breaking in they introduced enough air to slowly reinvigorate it after they built a bit
Being aware while your body moves on its own is probably my ultimate, most existential fear. 10/10 video
That and being set on. Fire alive.... Two things I absolutely dread.
This actually seems pretty easy to contain, just seal the hole. It's too cold outside for it to live on the surface without a host, and it's infection is obvious enough to catch early.
Or use a few megatons of Soviet engineering?
@@a_Minion_of_Soros so it can seep into the water supply for half of Europe over the next 60 years?

@@a_Minion_of_Soros yeah, risk to blow up the spores up to the upper atmosphere and risk to get it to land in how weather palaces where it could actually take hold if
Yeah, the upper atmosphere temperature could kill it but I wouldn't take the even the slimmest chance for it to happen given the option.
i love all the creative names he keeps giving for all these "monetization impairing" terms he needs to reference in these videos. "Giving themselves a new mouth" and "spicy egg" were great.
Giving themselves a new mouth is extremely creative. I love that he is using fun terms instead of defaulting to unaliving like lazy content creators.
What’s funny to me is that the actual bore hole is only 23 cm wide. No one can go down it and it’s not like a mine shaft. It’s just a hole that looks like they were drilling for water or oil. But the did cap it with thick steel plates and huge bolts.
There was actually an explosion deep down the hole in 1995. Nobody can really explain what happened there. Maybe just some gas bubble but nobody knows for sure.
What's really unnerving about this is how it basically blends the fungus-based zombie infection of The Last of Us with the Cronenberg-esque meat agglomeration body horror of Dead Space, just add bioluminescence.

This makes me wonder about mind altering parasites... are their victims aware or do they get tricked as if it were a decision of their own?
Depends on the parasite. Some subtly alter brain chemistry, some highjack the nervous system and aren't subtle at all.
Toxoplasmosis is a good example of a fairly subtle parasite in the context of humans, don't know of one off the top of my head for not so subtle

Losing my mind over “making himself a second mouth” and “lead dispenser” ,, your creative ways of censoring is my new favorite thing lmao
‘Spicy egg’ (grenade) was my favourite.

I wish RUclips didn’t censor everyone.
I remember a story I read as a child about a boy who decided to dig a whole in his back garden. Various family members and neighbours commented on it, saying how it could be a pond or some such he was digging. But he was adamant it was just a hole.
Sometimes, you just want to dig a big hole.
"I AM A DWARF AND I'M DIGGIN' A HOLE!"
This movie sounds like it was partially inspired by the SCP "The Flesh That Hates" that also fuses people together and turns everything into flesh carpets everywhere and is funny enough, also located in Russia.
Doubt it, the concept has been around for a long time, before scps became a thing
I love every time Roanoke talks about breathing he feels the need to point out that we’re not breathing manually, all just to screw with us. I laugh every time!
Just one of the many small ways he interacts and engages with his audience, and we love him for it.

Just stumbled across this channel love that he incorporates science into his explanation! Subbed
Wow, this thing is basically an ancient Flood supercell: fast enough to quickly overrun the body’s natural defenses, fuses multiple infected together into a single giant neurological mass for food, could easily wipe out the world with just a single spore, but ultimately is too old/weakened to fully control the host and resorts to just puppeteering the meatsuits while the brain is fully conscious of all the pain & mutilation it’s experiencing. 😱
Yeah but the Flood takes the nervoussystem and not only muscles
@@Luna.Tenebra not in Jenkin’s case. And the analogy above explains why
@@silent_stalker3687 even then it was still going for the nervoussystem, it just couldnt kick Jenkins out of it completly
a Gravemind I believe you mean. Also it's more like Gravemind mixed with the rat king. They even got the red lighting when they show it
@@Luna.Tenebra To be fair, realistically, nothing could kick you out of your own nervous system without killing you. Your spinal cord is the highway for your nervous system, connecting everything to the brain, and the only way to stop it would be to severe the link. Consequently, this would prevent you from breathing and kill you very quickly.
I gotta admit, the scene where Kira walks out of the mold cloud talking to herself was actually pretty damn disturbing
At this point I've been watching your videos for about 4 years and I have to say Roanoke you never disappoint! I have an idea, the Protoss and Zerg from the starcraft universe. Now that would be extremely fascinating. Much love from Kentucky Roanoke, I look forward to anything you put out there!
one of the best horror scifi monsters is a fungus that take over the body but leaves the person's mind intact. so you have this scream person yelling that "you need to run away", or "save me". as the mold monster charges you
Pissed my pants with that imagery
I want whoever dubbed the general Hitman guy in this movie to dub other stuff. That man has one of the most powerful voices I've ever heard.
I'm a young artist/writer working on a scifi story, and I've gotta say, thank you for posting what you post. Your explanations give me so many ideas, and motivate me to continue working on my own project. You have no idea the impact your channel has made on me in the past two years, and I really appreciate it. Thank you
may you never have writers block! as a horror writer my self I also love how inspirational this channel is haha
I just saw a movie recap of this movie on Monday, and checked to see then if you'd done the science on it! So loving that it got posted the same week!
So, something to note with engineers, they tend to be very ingrained in their way of doing things. If he's an electrical engineer he won't think about the mechanics of the elevator as much as he would the electronics.
I always get excited when I hear about electron microscopes. My uncle used to be a computer scientist, created the OS the Ohio state mainframe back in the day. He got into genetics and used his computer skills to optimize the microscopes while creating some of the early GMOs. Why did he transition from computers to creating GMOs? He wanted to make a banjo out of a gourd, but gourds are too thin and break from the tension of the drum head

Id say its almost a worse fate in this movie
What about the Rat King? Or the mold thing from Splinter?
fungus
the music playing in the background is really fitting, eh?
nah re7 for me
She was probably already infected.
In the Lower Cave, when she got the key, she had the mask off, and judging by the film, the whole air down there was full of spores.
I was so young when I got tinnitus that I just thought it was normal. I didn't know about it until I was 23 years old.
to be honest this mold actually reminds me of the mold from resident evil 7 but i say it has both traits of the cordyceps and the mold combined which is quite terrifying to think about
If you ever want to do a book based one there is an extremely interesting book series called Alex hunter, it has a lot of microbiology in the second book as one of the main characters is a microbiologist. The first book also has a underground lake in Antarctica that has a completely seperate evolutionary tree that I think you would find extremely interesting.
I would love to cover books, the biggest issue is footage acqusition
@@RoanokeGaming this is true
@@RoanokeGaming I’d imagine that the majority of the people here wouldn’t mind if you used books because a lot of law Channels for games like warhammer and star wars get a lot of subs without footage

Book series is ok but kinda jumps the shark around books 5.
One of the things I love about this channel , is I get nice movie recommendations.
G'day from AussieLand mate! Love your videos. Keep up the amazing work :D
as much as the concept is a fairly common one in horror media I still really enjoyed this movie and its special effects. When using earthly biological ideas in horror you get a lot of similar themes in games and movies etc. I don't mind though i feel like there are lots of different ways to use it and i like to see different takes on it. It's just another genre of entertainment, like zombie genre or ghosts. The part that I really like is that it's just doing what it does to survive and isn't intentionally hurting people. THAT is the true horror. No malicious demon or mutated rabies could ever be so terrifying as nature itself. You can't reason with it, or bribe it or do some magical spell to stop it, you can't even put a bullet in it's head to kill it. I love it. Absolutely horrifying.
But mutated rabies is nature too
@@totalguardian1436 I think that's slang for zombie virus, though I guess it depends on whether you see something natural that's been modified in a lab as nature still or not.

I try not to get paranoid but there’s something so out of whack in terms of this channels reach.
Its cool medicine education, movies, fatherly vibes.
This place deserves more recognition but I cant imagine how destabilising this platform is for Roanoke.
So would a theoretical cure be an ice bath? Lowering your body temp till the fungus dies then recover?
No because it just goes dormant at best since you will never be able to get your core temp low enough to kill the fungus in your body.
Technically yes. So we know this mould's living range only just covers 37.4 degrees C (which funnily enough means birds are ideal/superior hosts for it as they average 41 degrees C). The lowest recorded human body temperatures which people survived are 11.8 degrees from a toddler and 9 degrees from 51 yr old undergoing controlled treatment. So with that in mind and 37 degrees being on the lower end of the moulds range in a controlled setting with equipement and experts a person could be lowered to a temp the mould dies while the human can be revived.
However. Given that the mould crystalises upon 'freezing' any person infected could survive the infection only to die to crystal fragments being in their body.
@@scarletsblood8510 I'm curious now as to the physical properties of the mold crystals. They could perforate the internal anatomy when the freeze, causing hemorrhaging. If that doesn't happen, the destroyed mold could cause artificial clotting - assuming muscular action grinds them down or it hardens into a form of calculus.

If you’re wondering why we are driven to to dig really deep holes in the earth. It’s the same reason we keep trying to go deeper and deeper into the ocean.
Humans naturally have an innate desire to explore their environment to see what they can find.
What better way is there to do this than to search the deepest most crevices of our planet? The answer no other way.
Speak for yourself. I just wanna find the Arkenstone.
the faustian spirit eventually bites us in the ass, but it never stops us from digging a deeper hole.
If we have such a strong desire to explore than why haven't I ever completed the Meridias Beacon quest 😉

So happy to see Roanoke cover one of my favourite movies at the moment!
Can I just say that I love your background music choices! I'm always so happy to hear the Last of Us themes playing
excellent as always, thinking that the upside-down creatures and biology would be great
Seems more like the Flood from Halo which was also inspired by mold. So the Captain Keyes reference is pretty on point.
I'd love to see you do an episode on some Stargate creatures, the Goa'uld and the Wraith. The way you science things is just perfect.
“Force multiplier” has become my favorite word in these videos! It gets me every time! 😂
This is my favorite horror genre. A virus that molds people and slowly painfully turns them. Absolutely terrifying.

Just curious, but would you ever cover short film-type content by any chance, like from Love, Death & Robots? A couple of fun ones I can think of would be episodes like Suits, The Secret War, or Bad Traveling.
Roanoke talking about Upside has to be the most dad thing I've ever witnessed
I think a really cool movie that I would be really interested in having the science explained it Pontypool. It involves a zombie-esque virus, but the way it transmits is very interesting.
Watched this about a month ago with low expectations, was actually a half decent movie.
was pleasantly surprised as well
Hey roanoke, there's a movie where ships crew finding a russian spaceshuttle wreck with a mutated seabears inside. It's called Harbinger Down and it has Lance Henriksen playing a grumpy grandpa captain. Any chance you're gonna take a look at it?

Interesting deduction and learning more vocabulary everyday.
Just watched the Movie Recap a few days ago on this movie and glad Roanoke is covering it in depth!
This is both fascinating, & complete nightmare fuel that I want to douse in fire. Also makes me think back to the Mold from RE7 & RE8, especially with it crystalizing when it gets too cold. Love your work Roanoke, can't wait for what you come out with next. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm pretty sure fire will make it stronger

The mold fusing together, wanting to take over humanity, and weak against cold, all being unearthed from some arctic area. This is very similar to The Thing

Hey Roanoke, been really enjoying your content! I've got a hypothetical, do you think it would be possible for us to engineer a virus or something that would act like our own dna and replace/replenish broken or missing parts? And if so, following that same train of thought, would it be possible for us to use that to make a virus that would actively stimulate muscle growth?
The very last scene is actually her pulling the pin, as the subtitles said "Ana pulls the pin" at the same frame, and afterwards, as the screen turned black before rolling credits
Can you do the Chimera parasite from Rainbow Six Extraction? I love these, I've never really been into science but these are always interesting.
been playing that, figuring out what it is
Hey Roanoke it will be interesting if you cover contracted phase 1 and 2 and how the disease progress, great video as always 🤠
"Spicy egg"...made me 😁😁😁. Very creative.
Still waiting for Monster Hunter breakdowns haha, Love the video man keep up the good work
Yay! Another video! Also, I love how you called out Dead Space in this video, I just started playing the games after gaining the courage to finally play through them. Your videos on the Dead Space necromorphs piqued my interest in the games.
"Cause youtubes not forever." *Moment of silence.* I really though Roanoke was about to put a second advertisement spot in!
Im experimenting with like actual natural breaks rather than mid sentence cut off-
@@RoanokeGaming Do it up dude. I enjoy your sort of fast paced way of explaining but I'd listen either way. Nothing wrong with experimenting.
“Btw you’re breathing manually” you’re gonna be the first one we sacrifice to our new/old mold god
Thank you, now I am thinking about breathing as I do it xD
Great vid as always
Great video man personality I think you should do the H5G9 virus from Sweet Tooth next
I'll check it out!
@@RoanokeGaming you should!! Sweet Tooth is a really fascinating and bizarre series
this reminds me of GTFO, It's got pretty much the exact same plot and has a very similar infection.
Dig super deep whole? Check
Some sort of infectious disease? Check
Send more people down? Check
Infected have bioluminescence? Check
Infected mutate heavily? Check
I just love your videos. As someone with a medicine degree, I highly appreciate the science and facts behind your videos!
i recommended this when it came out!!!!c awesome!
Your videos are always interesting and I love the scientific portions. Honestly, I've always loved making up fictional organisms and have tried my best for physically (at least, proportionally) accurate designs, but with Roanoke's help, I can now make them more biologically accurate as well, so thanks. Although, it's fair if you DON'T want me to thank you as I've taken more to the horror genre in the past 6-7 years ^^'. Hehehe... Assuming I ever get so far with a single idea, I hope one day you find one of my "children" and grow to love/hate (or both, both is also valid) it as much as movie monsters like this one ^^
Ngl I don't watch movies anymore and haven't in multiple years since my old glitchy laptop with a dvd player died so these are always fun, and no need to worry about spoilers for smth I'll probably never get to watch anyway. This movie seems like a fun one to watch if it's not taken too seriously but not so much if you expect normal, practical human responses to an unknown and highly dangerous threat lol. Idk about everyone else in this universe, but I'd of asked more questions and been a bit more hesitant to.... Well, participate in any of that honestly. Oh? No one has returned in how long exactly from an underground facility housing an unknown organism that's known to be infectious? Really sorry for them but I choose life. Thanks
... Also I want an old god 🥺. Maybe summon a tad bit less mold though if we get to make requests lmao
How does the multiple screaming head monster even work, do they each have their own respiratory system? Or is it like a bagpipe kinda thing?
“Spicy Egg” got a good chuckle from me lol
I'm not the type to comment on videos, I usually like and lurk. This is video is a great example of the type of content I enjoy and they're the reason why I use RUclips. The fact that creators struggle with censorship, exposure, and being fairly compensated for ad revenue makes me frustrated with the platform. I hate that I have to leave a comment just for the sake of manipulating an algorithm that doesn't even benefit the audience I'm a part of. That being said, here we are. Keep up the good work and fight the good fight.
