That sign was interesting.

Even more eerie that sometimes it’s because someone died there (or potentially several people) and in some cases is still there because they couldn’t get to the body. Just seeing documentaries about it triggers my claustrophobia immediately.
I've seen a few on caving documentaries where they later explored large sections and filmed the opening all weird in a time-lapse. Literally the last one I saw had a concrete angled opening that was spray painted all crazy green and yellow

I mean this as affectionately as I can, but people crazy enough to even get to this point are not likely to be stopped by simple "stop" or "do not enter"
That sign before you enter the cave is something in real life. I used to scuba dive and would see them in front of underwater caves often.

@@Wings_Of_Avalon Your air tank is not only used for breathing, but is also connected to your suit, which is weighed down usually with lead weights (A diving kit is extremely heavy above the water) One of the gadgets connected to your suit is used to add air from the tank so you can achieve buoyancy once you reach the depth you want. This way you can just coast along without constantly bobbing about with every breath. You could theoretically add air to your suit to "find up", but it's still extremely dangerous as you're confined within a jagged, rocky cave with sensitive equipment and if already that disoriented, you are probably lost. In fact, cave diving requires a special license that is more advanced than a regular scuba license and they typically carry two tanks on their back rather than the usual one.

Funny Jack mentioned himself getting turned around in the first game while swimming around in a cavernous place. That's an actual phenomenon that happens to cave divers that go through underwater caves. Underwater caves are notorious for having "fake exits" that are essentially dead ends on the roof of the caves. You swim down through one entrance and you swim back up, but if you're not careful, you could actually go to one of those false exits. And since it's normally pitch black in those caves, you only have a flashlight to see by. And if you accidentally kick up soot from the cave walls, you end up being stick in a big cloud of dirt, blind as a bat, with no way to go. You can also ascend too fast and get the bendz and you get in delirious state and get disoriented and, in some cases, end up believing you can breathe water so you take your oxygen mask off and die. Suffice to say, I'm not ever going cave diving. Edit: Just FYI, most known, popular cave sites for diving have at least one line leading from the surface to the floor of the cave so you don't get lost or turned around. The people who usually die down there, stray from the path provided. There's typically signs that say something along the lines of "STOP. Prevent your death. Go no further." when you've reached a hazardous area in a cave system. Just do the right thing and you'll stay safe and live to tell the tale.
@@Hooper45 Well, there are absolutely safe ways to do so. As long as you're with experienced divers and y'all follow all the precautions, it would probably be fun!

The pinch test isnt to wake you, its to make you realize you're dreaming. If you feel it, you're awake, if you dont or it has a numb/off feeling you are dreaming.
I find the best method to check to see if you are dreaming is to count your fingers. For some reason you always end up with extra. Checking your watch is another good method
I got told to press my fingers into my other hand's palm and that if I was dreaming, it would go through my hand. Well I did that in a dream and i felt it and it was solid and not going through the other hand. I don't even remember what the dream was about except that the hand thing did not work. XD
Or if you go deep enough, the middle of the day is just as dark! The sun wont save you from the beady eyes you can only feel circling around you as the darkness consumes all but a few feet of water in front of your face. You think you hear something dart through the water a little ways away from you, a rush of water flows past you, followed by a school of fish. What are they running from?
Deep down in the ocean? I agree! On a ship at the surface? That's actually one of the most relaxing things I've experienced in my life. Admittedly we had almost no waves and the sky was crystal clear, but still... stars as far as the eye can see, otherwise darkness and the soothing soft sound of water... would do that again anytime!
Cold Abyss was actually a genius game especially for someone with Thalassophobia, its the fear of the unknown, what if there is something lurking in the dark, your imagination gets the worst of you, that's what was truly terrifying about the game, the whaat ifs created the most tension
Naw tbh it was really missing a huge factor of horror games, like really no sense of urgency besides oxygen, no higher explanation of things like flesh anus cave and no ambiguity doesn't work with it because the game is so short anyway there's no time to flesh out the ambiguity. Idk lots more but it was honestly mids
Horror is actually getting better now. The last two games were generally unsettling and the „person behind you” jumpscare got me good. Very entertaining video as always, Jack is really the only RUclipsr that is keeping me interested in horror right now
@@BLOOD_AND_INKit’s the fear of giant objects and structures, not giant underwater creatures. They would also count but I think you misunderstood what the phobia is
I don't have epilepsy, but sometimes the flashing light really bother me, and I can't explain how happy I am for the warnings in every video. Thank you for being so thorough
what always makes me mad is when there aren't warnings in games and videos lol. You could kill somebody with that. I don't have epilepsy, but I feel for those who do have it.
@@elder_books5496facts! I have epilepsy and I was first diagnosed with photosensitive epilepsy which is the flashing lights one but thankfully they changed that to a different type of epilepsy as lights don’t effect me but I still appreciate the warnings so much as anything flashing even on tv can set someone’s seizures off
Lol I love how he gave the monster a name in the last game. Now I'm just picturing 'John' as a weird roommate thats super chill with nudity and has a tendency to walk way too fast through doors.
That first game had so much potential to be more...a cheeky cuthulu or finding out what exactly the structures were about when all cables connected as the cave looked so visceral.
@@apxllyxn2205 It depends for me. When I was younger I didn’t know anything about them and would keep doing my activities. Now that I do I’ve gotten strangely used to the feeling I’m paranoid at every slightly tired or dizzy feeling I have. But yes ^ I do get a feeling beforehand, sorry for rambling
@@apxllyxn2205 Unfortunately a couple minutes before the seizure I don’t remember anything about it, it’s called a “retrograde seizure”, it is, plainly, amnesia :P And after you wake up everything feels like time is slowing your body down and you’ll never feel better again. After resting you’re back to normal tho
I think under water would be way worse than space because in space you can see everything around you for miles be in deep water there could be a creature right in front of you and you wouldn’t even see it
Also the deep dark sea feels a lot closer to home than out in space. None of us are probably ever gonna find ourselves in space, but there is a bigger chance we could find ourselves out in deep sea 🥲
i fully expected the first game to have a plot twist where the ground start shaking and you realize you've been on the creature the whole time and all the "wires" are pieces of flesh thats why they have blood on them and that cave you went into that looked oddly fleshy was its gill or something
Fun fact: many underwater caves bear this exact sign and message. Some have hatches with locks on them and the placard reading “there is nothing in here worth dying for”. The hatches have keys that are given to divers that can prove that they are cave certified. And lastly there are many horror channels that delve into stories of divers that ignored these messages, such as @Scary_Interesting and @MrDeified
In my experience, the best way to check if you are dreaming is to close your mouth, plug your nose, and try to keep breathing. If you can, you are asleep. That's how I usually start a lucid dream. Also, I have a hard time seeing my hands correctly in a dream, but the breathing things is much more conclusive. I'm pretty sure the point of pinching yourself in a dream is to see if it hurts or not. It's not supposed to wake you up or anything.
honestly for me the moment i question if something is a dream then i instantly become aware that i am asleep and can choose to wake up but it’s only happened once since i’ve gotten older
@@alexodocharty2884I can usually only tell when I am in a dream when I wake up and try to get a little sleep before my alarm goes off. It allows for me to "switch off" dreams that go wrong (aka most of them lol).
@RandomFandom8 I'll have to give that one a try if I can remember (it's much harder to remember things like that when you're actually dreaming, lol). I could see it working, but my brain also seems really great at making excuses for visual glitches when I'm dreaming. I think that's why the breathing one works best for me so far, but that might just be a person-to-person thing depending on how your brain works. Lucid dreaming is a super interesting phenomenon, but it's so hard to really investigate it because focusing too hard tends to break me out of it, and even if I balance it just right it can only last for so long.
Jack has to play SOMA. It’s also an underwater horror game with an amazing story. I think he played 1 episode a lot of years ago, but I don’t think he has ever done more than 1 part.
The Japanese titles converting into English subtitles is a touch of quality I've never realized.. it was a breather of fresh air to see/ experience.. thx you
Twas the nightmare before the holidays, and all through the streaming was a wee youtuber, probably screaming. Scary delights of underwater fear, with twists of the mind that madmen find dear. Poor Jackie boy was aimlessly ambling through delicious terrors that left him scrambling. A joy to watch on this coldest of days; his fans rejoice at the Irishmans craze. Cheers!
The jump scare in "The Lost Fear" at 38:26 got me soooooo bad. I was really into the video and I literally jumped. Then started laughing my ass off. Then I watched it again listening to Jack's rant. I keep watching this moment over and over again since, cracks me the hell up!!! 😂😂😂
1:20 Youre amazing Jack thank you fot being you and thank you for making such amazing content. Have a Merry Christmas, Blessed Yule, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Quanza, or whatever you celebrate. Be safe.
I have to say, as someone who does celebrate Yule, thank you! I never hear about Yule being lumped in there with all of the other December celebrations. This warmed my heart a bit. Thank you. :3
@@maltemojI'm not sure about the time stamp, but they where probably just wanting to stay to Jack and others happy winter celebrations. *Edit: typos.
a terrifying thought about the first game is what if there was a creature with you the whole time, it was just never seen while he was in the water? Pretty creepy
I was looking in the comments to see if anyone knows if there’s actually anything there in the game, but he just avoided it so well or it was basically unseeable but close, like he didn’t have his flashlight on or something. I need to know
Deep water crushes or drowns you (horrible way to go), space boils your blood and the emptiness is terrifying(also horrible way to go lol) but both are fun to explore! 😅
@@soaphope3398 Actually wrong. If you're put in space you'd have a pretty agonizing death. Your lungs would expand into your chest which would make your lungs literally rip apart. Your blood would boil, your nose and mouth would be freezing, among other horrible things. And this death takes minutes, not seconds. Meanwhile if you're placed at the bottom of the ocean, the water pressure would kill you in LESS than a second. The human brain can't even process it happening when it happens which means you'd have no clue it's about to happen and when it does, you're just dead. But hey, don't operate submarines with a playstation controller and you should be good. Unless you mean a gradual death. Like being slowly submerged or slowly taken up into space. At that point I think it's a stalemate, both are horrible.
@@gagetaylor192 agreed. Drowning sucks, A LOT. Almost, if not worse than burning to death depending on if you pass out from smoke inhalation. Being crushed quickly at the bottom of the ocean wouldn’t be as bad as dying in space for sure.
As for waking yourself up in dreams using pain (mentioned around 29:00) I once had a lucid dream (only one I ever got) and my immediate thought was “how can I wake myself up” So I summoned a big buff dude to beat me up… I took a fair deal of punches before I woke up Also… 32:08 When Jack is your Gym buddy
I find it interesting that Seán's former favorite color was red considering he has mild protanopia meaning that his eyes can't fully perceive red light. This means that what he sees as red is more likely a muddy yellowish color to those who don't have color blindness, although his perception of yellow is distinct in that it is a completely different color than what he sees as red. That's an enigmatic concept to try to wrap my head around. What's even crazier to me is that people who have protanopia would never know they have it unless they are tested for it. That's similar to people with vision problems never knowing they had poor eyesight before vision tests and bifocals/glasses were invented. There were literally Native Americans running around hunting MAMMOTHS which, to them, probably looked something akin to a GIANT ball of fuzzy yarn stampeding around UNLESS they were either far enough away or close enough to it to see aforementioned mammoths clearly. But even then, THEY DIDN'T KNOW that their fuzzy clarity of vision, from either being closer to, or further away from, was not normal. Likewise, others with clear vision had no idea that what they were seeing was perceptively superior from what their colleagues were seeing because there was literally NO WAY for them to even contemplate comparing their vision with one another to find out they differed sight-wise. That seriously hurts my brain to think about. Alright I'm done. Hello everyone! I hope those of you who are optically challenged, like me, are wearing their glasses or contacts so they can enjoy this video with optimal clarity! And if you don't know if you have poor vision or not, I suggest setting up an appointment with an ophthalmologist to find out. It makes me a little sad to think there are possibly people out there living day-to-day without a clue that they could be perceiving the world better.
I had no idea I struggle to see greens until I was about 17! As an artist that complicates things, but colorwheels are a thing 😂 and as you mentioned, seeing green vs seeing a beige-yellow is noticeable to me, but it still makes my friends sad knowing that a grassy hill or plain is just all beige to me. Meanwhile to me they're still beautiful! 😅
John just wants to enjoy some pantless alone time in his nice 5d home, but this creepy guy who knows his name wandered in talking to himself. He won't even leave when threatened!
I know jack is probably not going to see this but right now there's nothing more entertaining and relaxing than watching him play horror games, thanks jack you'll be one of my favourite forever
That sign at the cave entrance is very much reminding me of the grim reaper sign they have at the entrance of the Vortex spring underwater cave. Even experianced divers have died there. It literally states "STOP prevent your death! Go No further!"
I really so appreciate the photosensitivity warnings! I watch your videos in a dark room so the flashes are pretty inescapable when they happen. Your always give me enough time to cover my eyes and avoid my migraines :))
Eating a food with liquid while watching horror? Rookie move. Unless you're a psychopath like me and you like to eat the cereal straight from the box with your hands.
I love the attention to detail when entering the cave, the grim reaper sign that's in all explored caves so inexperienced divers don't go in. And Jack just going "wanna bet?" 😂
@@CaesarLvcivswhat you mean "what horror really is"? Horror isn’t just one thing. It's a whole lot of things. Just because it may did not do anything for you doesn’t mean it wasn't horror. Like, what.. you watched a lot of older horror movies or whatever and think now because of that you’re some kinda horror expert? Cause you’re definitly not with a take like that.
@@YouMeUngaBunga wdym "with a take like that"? he wasn't wrong, not to discredit the kid but the game simply lacks a lot of what other good horror games have, trying to take aspects from PT, while it lacks a lot in other aspects. most of the scares are from jumpscares, which already are debatable in terms of actually SCARING you, rather than surprising you. there isnt enough atmospheric tension for you to properly be sucked in, and be actually scared of the whole game, rather than just feeling discomfort from the lack of light and the occasional startle from mr naked man running at you. although some parts had lots of potential, they didn't deliver as much. not to mention some of the texts scattered around broke you out of the immersion since they were sort of funny to read. the original reply wasnt wrong, it is impressive considering hes only 13 and probably will only get better from here, but there still is a lot to learn
@@quothh3631 Yes, the game and its horror aspects weren't perfect at all, but my main critique directed at the first reply wasn't that they thaught the game wasn't that good, it was about the point about "learning what horror really is". Just because it doesn’t scare YOU doesn’t mean it's not horror. If the horror element at that moment was effective or not is completely beside the point. It's not about that in my reply. Horror isn’t that one set thing. I have arachnophobia, so spiders would be a good scare element for me, but I'm not scared of small corridors or rooms for example, so I wouldn't get scared by that. But somebody else would. The same for jumpscares, which ARE horror elements. They exist to scare you by surprise. Just because you can overuse/overdo elements doesn’t mean they just like that don't belong to the horror category anymore. People get scared of and fear all kinds of different things, it's not just about what YOU fear/get scared of, because you’re not the only one playing or watching horror content. And "with a take like that" was mostly directed at their "considering he is 13, perhaps", which sounded kinda arrogant. Like, "YeAh, fOr A tHiRtEen yEaR oLd, PERHAPS, bUt NoT fOr a GrOwN uP lIkE mE 🤓". Sounded kinda like unnesessarily(really don't know how that word is correctly spelled rn) downplaying the kids already quite good game making skills. He can still learn a bunch in terms of what horror elements to use and where to effectivly use them, but that is all. Nothing about that "what horror really is" bs. So, yes, from my perspective they were wrong.
It did make me chuckle at the start of the first game, where the English narration is constantly breaking up due to static, but the Japanese subtitles are still in full sentences so if you understand them you can tell what he's trying to say. XD
I love the epilepsy warning at the beginning and for the part where it happens. I don't even have epilepsy, but I love when people are considerate of others and warn them of these things.
that’s not just considerate, imagine watching a video of your favorite youtuber and suddenly getting a fucking attack because some dude paid thousands didn’t care enough to put a warning.
it's kinda funny that Cold Abyss was put in a 'scary' games' video cos its description is a 'relaxing, atmospheric game' (totally agree with putting it in a scary games video. it is a great game but so so unnerving lol). loved jack's playthrough!

You think you hear something dart through the water a little ways away from you, a rush of water flows past you, followed by a school of fish. What are they running from?
Deep down in the ocean? I agree!
On a ship at the surface? That's actually one of the most relaxing things I've experienced in my life. Admittedly we had almost no waves and the sky was crystal clear, but still... stars as far as the eye can see, otherwise darkness and the soothing soft sound of water... would do that again anytime!
On the contrary, I can think of nothing more peaceful and serene than the cold darkness of kilometers of water
Honestly yes
I think Jack's calm and curiosity in that game disputes your claim
Cold Abyss was actually a genius game especially for someone with Thalassophobia, its the fear of the unknown, what if there is something lurking in the dark, your imagination gets the worst of you, that's what was truly terrifying about the game, the whaat ifs created the most tension
Naw tbh it was really missing a huge factor of horror games, like really no sense of urgency besides oxygen, no higher explanation of things like flesh anus cave and no ambiguity doesn't work with it because the game is so short anyway there's no time to flesh out the ambiguity. Idk lots more but it was honestly mids
Horror is actually getting better now. The last two games were generally unsettling and the „person behind you” jumpscare got me good. Very entertaining video as always, Jack is really the only RUclipsr that is keeping me interested in horror right now
Megalophobia sounds like every human would instinctually have it
I dont
At that point surely it would be easier to point out the people that AREN’T scared of big underwater creatures
@@BLOOD_AND_INKit’s the fear of giant objects and structures, not giant underwater creatures. They would also count but I think you misunderstood what the phobia is
@@BLOOD_AND_INK submechanophobia is the fear of submerged man made objects.
Megalovania playing in the background made me cackle a little too
I don't have epilepsy, but sometimes the flashing light really bother me, and I can't explain how happy I am for the warnings in every video. Thank you for being so thorough
Yeah same, no epilepsy or seizures, but flashing lights make me feel dizzy and nauseous. I also appreciate the warnings a ton
same! I always appreciate it when people put warnings
sameeee @@Bamboo_Roche
what always makes me mad is when there aren't warnings in games and videos lol. You could kill somebody with that. I don't have epilepsy, but I feel for those who do have it.
@@elder_books5496facts!
I have epilepsy and I was first diagnosed with photosensitive epilepsy which is the flashing lights one but thankfully they changed that to a different type of epilepsy as lights don’t effect me but I still appreciate the warnings so much as anything flashing even on tv can set someone’s seizures off
Jacksepticeye, narrated by Jacksepticeye as David Attenborough. Masterpiece.
this comment is underrated
Elaborate further because idk wtf you're talking about
I don't know what it is, but something about Jack giving the most basic, generic names to freakish monsters makes me hysterical
Absolutely agreed 😂
My husbands name is John so it was a strange experience hearing him call my husbands name XD.
The Lost Fear got me so bad too when I played it back in October. Glad I wasn't the only one that got my soul scared out of me.
I can not imagine my life without Jacksepticeye's Indie Horror game series
Fr. I watch these vids yearly.. 😂😂 His vibe is immaculte yk??
Would it be a
Iife worth livin' ?
It adds to my spooky season extension, I listen to creepy podcasts all year but winter is when I really do it up and watch just tons of stuff
That Silk Bulb Test actually got under my skin.
Lol I love how he gave the monster a name in the last game. Now I'm just picturing 'John' as a weird roommate thats super chill with nudity and has a tendency to walk way too fast through doors.
That first game had so much potential to be more...a cheeky cuthulu or finding out what exactly the structures were about when all cables connected as the cave looked so visceral.
If you click on the bubbles that appear above the fixed cables, they do tell a bit of a Cthuhlu-esque story
The oxygen gauge edit at 13:14 was so good
nice
Nice 👍
Nice
nice

i didnt even notice it was an edit it looked so natural
As an epileptic, I sincerely thank you so much for your warning at the beginning Sean. You look out for us so much. Bless your heart
When you see flashing lights, do you immediately have an epilepsy or do you feel unwell beforehand so you have some time to get yourself safe?
@@apxllyxn2205 It depends for me. When I was younger I didn’t know anything about them and would keep doing my activities. Now that I do I’ve gotten strangely used to the feeling I’m paranoid at every slightly tired or dizzy feeling I have.
But yes ^ I do get a feeling beforehand, sorry for rambling
@@apxllyxn2205 Unfortunately a couple minutes before the seizure I don’t remember anything about it, it’s called a “retrograde seizure”, it is, plainly, amnesia :P And after you wake up everything feels like time is slowing your body down and you’ll never feel better again. After resting you’re back to normal tho
21:53 bro fucking VIOLATED Willam Dafoe 💀😭😭
I think under water would be way worse than space because in space you can see everything around you for miles be in deep water there could be a creature right in front of you and you wouldn’t even see it
we also know far far more about space than we currently do and probably ever will about the ocean
There’s also tons of scary shit that lives in the deep sea. Nothing lives in space.
Also the deep dark sea feels a lot closer to home than out in space. None of us are probably ever gonna find ourselves in space, but there is a bigger chance we could find ourselves out in deep sea 🥲
i think space is scarier, if you float off you can't stop yourself, but underwater you can
Both are pretty terrifying. You have no control in either place and I think for humans, that is detrimental to fear
i fully expected the first game to have a plot twist where the ground start shaking and you realize you've been on the creature the whole time and all the "wires" are pieces of flesh thats why they have blood on them and that cave you went into that looked oddly fleshy was its gill or something
31:15 I felt it in my toes. I don't think I've ever been jump scared so hard.
Fun fact: many underwater caves bear this exact sign and message. Some have hatches with locks on them and the placard reading “there is nothing in here worth dying for”. The hatches have keys that are given to divers that can prove that they are cave certified. And lastly there are many horror channels that delve into stories of divers that ignored these messages, such as
@Scary_Interesting
and
@MrDeified
Jack not seeing the huge underwater face at 10:55 though.
He also didn't saw the funny number at 13:14
He did see that...
@@infernaltourist9601I thought that was just something the editor did.
@@CaesarLvcivs You might be actually right
is that a face?
Honestly, a creepy shadow from a projector is a great scare gimmick 😱🤣
I so greatly appreciate creators and editors putting super explicit and time stamped flashing lights warnings into their content. Thank you
In my experience, the best way to check if you are dreaming is to close your mouth, plug your nose, and try to keep breathing. If you can, you are asleep. That's how I usually start a lucid dream. Also, I have a hard time seeing my hands correctly in a dream, but the breathing things is much more conclusive.
I'm pretty sure the point of pinching yourself in a dream is to see if it hurts or not. It's not supposed to wake you up or anything.
honestly for me the moment i question if something is a dream then i instantly become aware that i am asleep and can choose to wake up but it’s only happened once since i’ve gotten older
@@alexodocharty2884I can usually only tell when I am in a dream when I wake up and try to get a little sleep before my alarm goes off. It allows for me to "switch off" dreams that go wrong (aka most of them lol).
Another method I've heard is to try pushing your finger through your palm
@RandomFandom8 I'll have to give that one a try if I can remember (it's much harder to remember things like that when you're actually dreaming, lol). I could see it working, but my brain also seems really great at making excuses for visual glitches when I'm dreaming. I think that's why the breathing one works best for me so far, but that might just be a person-to-person thing depending on how your brain works. Lucid dreaming is a super interesting phenomenon, but it's so hard to really investigate it because focusing too hard tends to break me out of it, and even if I balance it just right it can only last for so long.
Jack has an unnaturally good David Attenborough impression and it's both scary and impressive
Jack has to play SOMA. It’s also an underwater horror game with an amazing story. I think he played 1 episode a lot of years ago, but I don’t think he has ever done more than 1 part.
Yes I been spamming this across the comments lol. I want him to finish the game on the channel and he needs to!
Jack: "WHAT DID YOU PUT IN MY MILK?"
Me: Pauses mid sip from my glass of milk
The Japanese titles converting into English subtitles is a touch of quality I've never realized.. it was a breather of fresh air to see/ experience.. thx you
9:03 Jack hitting us with those four notes that give everyone fucking PTSD flashbacks
Twas the nightmare before the holidays, and all through the streaming was a wee youtuber, probably screaming. Scary delights of underwater fear, with twists of the mind that madmen find dear. Poor Jackie boy was aimlessly ambling through delicious terrors that left him scrambling. A joy to watch on this coldest of days; his fans rejoice at the Irishmans craze. Cheers!
Wait this is so funny and well weitten
👏🏻
That was beautiful!
Awesome story 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice poetry
Jack: “I know the way out but-….”
Me watching him do the cave: *PANIC INTENSIFIES*
31:10 Dropped all my icecream on the floor and fell off my chair 💀
Talk about a JUMPscare
13:15 That "NICE" edit though. lol
Jack calling the lanky naked thing John in the 3rd game made it much easier to watch 😂
The jump scare in "The Lost Fear" at 38:26 got me soooooo bad. I was really into the video and I literally jumped. Then started laughing my ass off. Then I watched it again listening to Jack's rant. I keep watching this moment over and over again since, cracks me the hell up!!! 😂😂😂
He gets so much more Irish for a second haha
The Jumpscare at 31:20 made me jump so bad my phone flipped in my hands, screen facing away from me. I literally spun my phone in fear
I was on such edge after the second game I am legit so grateful to have found this comment.
@@silversugar2140 glad I could help hun ♡♡
1:20 Youre amazing Jack thank you fot being you and thank you for making such amazing content. Have a Merry Christmas, Blessed Yule, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Quanza, or whatever you celebrate. Be safe.
I have to say, as someone who does celebrate Yule, thank you! I never hear about Yule being lumped in there with all of the other December celebrations. This warmed my heart a bit. Thank you. :3
JACK PLEASE FINISH THE WALKING DEAD SAINTS AND SINNERS.
This is so sweet
Ok but why did you put a time stamp where literally nothing at all happens and nothing that has anything to do with your comment, either?!
@@maltemojI'm not sure about the time stamp, but they where probably just wanting to stay to Jack and others happy winter celebrations. *Edit: typos.
a terrifying thought about the first game is what if there was a creature with you the whole time, it was just never seen while he was in the water? Pretty creepy
I was looking in the comments to see if anyone knows if there’s actually anything there in the game, but he just avoided it so well or it was basically unseeable but close, like he didn’t have his flashlight on or something. I need to know
@@gageirvan1784 At around 9:03, you can see for a split second a creature passing by. So there is something in there.
been watching this dude since I’m 11, im almost outta hs now. Been great growing up with you jack.
Same, been watching for 10 years and I’m 27 now. It’s special right? 🥰
The Megalophobia edit at 9:04 effing KILLLED ME!!!
Jacksepticeye even all these years later still manages to be one of my all time favourite RUclipsrs, never change jack ❤❤❤
@@Lyrics_Destroyeroh brother
@@Lyrics_Destroyeroh be quiet, he is just a nice person and at least he has a love where judging on your judging of people, you won't.
@@Lyrics_Destroyer is it wrong to have a favourite RUclipsr, I’m just speaking my mind
@@Lyrics_Destroyer hey, I hope your day gets better eventually. All love 💕
Ay I love this community 😂😂 No bullshit here ya'll!! ❤
The fact that Jack uploaded this video when it's midnight in my country, just exactly what I needed
Hope you enjoy the spooks. It's night and raining here. Really comfy time for Jack to drop this. >:3
Ayo ph?
@@GeloGee close enough, further southwest actually
It's 1:56pm for me so it's afternoon
It’s 11:20 for me rn
I cant remember the last time a game has let me down more than that first one
Plays game*.... I...win? TERRIBLE!
Lol I was disappointed too
That jump scare in the 3rd game pushed me back to my seat.
Deep water crushes or drowns you (horrible way to go), space boils your blood and the emptiness is terrifying(also horrible way to go lol) but both are fun to explore! 😅
I think I’d choose space death over ocean death. It seems like it’d be a lot more instantaneous so there wouldn’t be much pain
@@soaphope3398 Actually wrong. If you're put in space you'd have a pretty agonizing death. Your lungs would expand into your chest which would make your lungs literally rip apart. Your blood would boil, your nose and mouth would be freezing, among other horrible things. And this death takes minutes, not seconds.
Meanwhile if you're placed at the bottom of the ocean, the water pressure would kill you in LESS than a second. The human brain can't even process it happening when it happens which means you'd have no clue it's about to happen and when it does, you're just dead. But hey, don't operate submarines with a playstation controller and you should be good. Unless you mean a gradual death. Like being slowly submerged or slowly taken up into space. At that point I think it's a stalemate, both are horrible.
@@gagetaylor192 agreed. Drowning sucks, A LOT. Almost, if not worse than burning to death depending on if you pass out from smoke inhalation. Being crushed quickly at the bottom of the ocean wouldn’t be as bad as dying in space for sure.
As for waking yourself up in dreams using pain (mentioned around 29:00)
I once had a lucid dream (only one I ever got) and my immediate thought was “how can I wake myself up”
So I summoned a big buff dude to beat me up… I took a fair deal of punches before I woke up
Also… 32:08
When Jack is your Gym buddy
Damn… that’s kinda concerning 😂
In my lucid dream, I jumped off a roof to see if I could fly XD
Man I love how Jack was playing around and having fun by faking turning around but then he immediately was ready and quiet when he did 23:41
I find it interesting that Seán's former favorite color was red considering he has mild protanopia meaning that his eyes can't fully perceive red light. This means that what he sees as red is more likely a muddy yellowish color to those who don't have color blindness, although his perception of yellow is distinct in that it is a completely different color than what he sees as red. That's an enigmatic concept to try to wrap my head around. What's even crazier to me is that people who have protanopia would never know they have it unless they are tested for it. That's similar to people with vision problems never knowing they had poor eyesight before vision tests and bifocals/glasses were invented. There were literally Native Americans running around hunting MAMMOTHS which, to them, probably looked something akin to a GIANT ball of fuzzy yarn stampeding around UNLESS they were either far enough away or close enough to it to see aforementioned mammoths clearly. But even then, THEY DIDN'T KNOW that their fuzzy clarity of vision, from either being closer to, or further away from, was not normal. Likewise, others with clear vision had no idea that what they were seeing was perceptively superior from what their colleagues were seeing because there was literally NO WAY for them to even contemplate comparing their vision with one another to find out they differed sight-wise. That seriously hurts my brain to think about. Alright I'm done. Hello everyone! I hope those of you who are optically challenged, like me, are wearing their glasses or contacts so they can enjoy this video with optimal clarity! And if you don't know if you have poor vision or not, I suggest setting up an appointment with an ophthalmologist to find out. It makes me a little sad to think there are possibly people out there living day-to-day without a clue that they could be perceiving the world better.
thank you fellow commenter for making me think about people with vision problems thousand of years ago
As someone who’s legally blind I think about this a lot hahaha
I had no idea I struggle to see greens until I was about 17! As an artist that complicates things, but colorwheels are a thing 😂 and as you mentioned, seeing green vs seeing a beige-yellow is noticeable to me, but it still makes my friends sad knowing that a grassy hill or plain is just all beige to me.
Meanwhile to me they're still beautiful! 😅
I love the stress response of turning into David Attenborough lol
27:25 had me rolling 😂😂😂😂
12:53 reads the sign that says danger and not worth dying for
Jack: (proceeds to walk in) Oh really?
I was missing 3 scary games haha, I am glad you made a video of it
John just wants to enjoy some pantless alone time in his nice 5d home, but this creepy guy who knows his name wandered in talking to himself. He won't even leave when threatened!
I know jack is probably not going to see this but right now there's nothing more entertaining and relaxing than watching him play horror games, thanks jack you'll be one of my favourite forever
23:40 and 28:50 both had me rolling. Appreciate the content Jack, the vids are amazing and you're funny as hell.
Jackie boy you are on a roll and it's such a good one!!!
Merry Christmas happy Christmas 🎄☃️🎅🏻🤶🏻🧑🏻🎄❄️☃️🌨️
I jumped so hard at 31:12 that I punched myself in the lip XD
Dude I had my earbuds on and when I tell you my phone went flying with my buds on, it really spooked me that bad 😭
That sign at the cave entrance is very much reminding me of the grim reaper sign they have at the entrance of the Vortex spring underwater cave. Even experianced divers have died there. It literally states "STOP prevent your death! Go No further!"
I really so appreciate the photosensitivity warnings! I watch your videos in a dark room so the flashes are pretty inescapable when they happen. Your always give me enough time to cover my eyes and avoid my migraines :))
this is the best early Christmas gift I could ask for, thank you once again for another amazing video
No way the first jump scare made me spill my cereal all over myself
Eating a food with liquid while watching horror? Rookie move. Unless you're a psychopath like me and you like to eat the cereal straight from the box with your hands.
It felt like I had just stuck a fork in an outlet and got shocked I jumped like a foot
@@gagetaylor192💀
Jack never fails to give us the best content possible and still remain mentally sane
Between the sound and the camera becoming larger at 33:33. That indeed spooked tf out of me
Your impressions are amazing 🖤
That SAW impersonation is off the hook, just nailed it Jack, perfectly
Jack had a flashback to subnautica for the first few seconds
Was that like 2 seconds of megalovania I heard play when Jack said megalaphobia? 😂😂😂 superb editing, my dude
21:08 Sean being Cardibied xD love it
I really love that Trey puts his editussy into these videos
STAWP WHAT LMAOOOO
I really appreciate all these horror related videos this last week Jack! Nothing is like watching you watching scary videos or playing scary games.
Merry Christmas Sean! Hope you have a Happy New Year too! 🥰❤️🙌🏼
I love the attention to detail when entering the cave, the grim reaper sign that's in all explored caves so inexperienced divers don't go in. And Jack just going "wanna bet?" 😂
Mad respect to Vasco Rocha, it was an amazing game.
Considering he is 13, perhaps.
However, still has a long way to go on the matter of learning what horror really is.
@@CaesarLvcivswhat you mean "what horror really is"? Horror isn’t just one thing. It's a whole lot of things. Just because it may did not do anything for you doesn’t mean it wasn't horror. Like, what.. you watched a lot of older horror movies or whatever and think now because of that you’re some kinda horror expert? Cause you’re definitly not with a take like that.
@@CaesarLvcivshorror is subjective, people fear different things
@@YouMeUngaBunga wdym "with a take like that"? he wasn't wrong, not to discredit the kid but the game simply lacks a lot of what other good horror games have, trying to take aspects from PT, while it lacks a lot in other aspects. most of the scares are from jumpscares, which already are debatable in terms of actually SCARING you, rather than surprising you. there isnt enough atmospheric tension for you to properly be sucked in, and be actually scared of the whole game, rather than just feeling discomfort from the lack of light and the occasional startle from mr naked man running at you. although some parts had lots of potential, they didn't deliver as much. not to mention some of the texts scattered around broke you out of the immersion since they were sort of funny to read. the original reply wasnt wrong, it is impressive considering hes only 13 and probably will only get better from here, but there still is a lot to learn
@@quothh3631 Yes, the game and its horror aspects weren't perfect at all, but my main critique directed at the first reply wasn't that they thaught the game wasn't that good, it was about the point about "learning what horror really is". Just because it doesn’t scare YOU doesn’t mean it's not horror. If the horror element at that moment was effective or not is completely beside the point. It's not about that in my reply. Horror isn’t that one set thing. I have arachnophobia, so spiders would be a good scare element for me, but I'm not scared of small corridors or rooms for example, so I wouldn't get scared by that. But somebody else would. The same for jumpscares, which ARE horror elements. They exist to scare you by surprise. Just because you can overuse/overdo elements doesn’t mean they just like that don't belong to the horror category anymore. People get scared of and fear all kinds of different things, it's not just about what YOU fear/get scared of, because you’re not the only one playing or watching horror content.
And "with a take like that" was mostly directed at their "considering he is 13, perhaps", which sounded kinda arrogant. Like, "YeAh, fOr A tHiRtEen yEaR oLd, PERHAPS, bUt NoT fOr a GrOwN uP lIkE mE 🤓". Sounded kinda like unnesessarily(really don't know how that word is correctly spelled rn) downplaying the kids already quite good game making skills. He can still learn a bunch in terms of what horror elements to use and where to effectivly use them, but that is all. Nothing about that "what horror really is" bs.
So, yes, from my perspective they were wrong.
The silk bulb test is my favourite! Thx so much for playing it
I like how Sean can make a scary game into a comedy!
It did make me chuckle at the start of the first game, where the English narration is constantly breaking up due to static, but the Japanese subtitles are still in full sentences so if you understand them you can tell what he's trying to say. XD
Yay scary stuff right before Christmas as it should be!
Yo Jack, it's been a good minute since you did the last try not to laugh challenge. Love your videos, keep up the amazing work you do.
I love the epilepsy warning at the beginning and for the part where it happens. I don't even have epilepsy, but I love when people are considerate of others and warn them of these things.
that’s not just considerate, imagine watching a video of your favorite youtuber and suddenly getting a fucking attack because some dude paid thousands didn’t care enough to put a warning.
I find it funny how there was just a convenient waterproof flashlight at the bottom of the ocean waiting for jack
made the mistake of clicking this at 4 in the morning
Same
That sounds like a terrible time and idea
Damn, you’re only a half hour ahead of me lmao
Well It's 12 at night for me
I'm watching this at 2:69 in the morning
LOVED THE 24 REFERENCE. It's my ALL TIME favorite show!!
it's kinda funny that Cold Abyss was put in a 'scary' games' video cos its description is a 'relaxing, atmospheric game' (totally agree with putting it in a scary games video. it is a great game but so so unnerving lol). loved jack's playthrough!
3 scary games! let’s go! thanks for the video and merry Christmas jack!🎄🎁🎅🏻💚
i love that the game made the oxygen thingy say “nice” when the oxygen is at 69
