A wholesome fact about smiling is that blind people still smile despite never seeing it, it is a natural expression
Yeah? Everyone knows that
btw I think the smiler’s scream is based on the cod zombies scream
@@dieselboy.7637 prove it
Really! I didn't know that?
@@dieselboy.7637 Bruh why be negative about it, even if it is well known, it is still a wholesome reminder.
We learned during the first 2 patients experiments that alzheimers was a symptom of the smile, so maybe he somehow killed his own dog and doesn't remember?
That's what I was thinkin
could be
yeah and patient 1 prolly killed 2 because of predatory instincts developing
@@phaij4623 i highly doubt they were kept in the same room- when youre doing studies like that on two different beings theyre usually separated- so as said in the video they prolly just died since people usually just destabilize at that stage
Yeah like it was just fine he said
"53 4D 49 4C 45" in the Gomez logs flashed extremely quickly and means "S M I L E" in hexadecimal.
"HPLCPLQLXTWJ" when put into a decoder turns into "WEAREAFAMILY"´, scene is at 21:31.
"smile"... hmmm... WHAT DOES IT MEAN
22:55 there is another code definitely in hexadecimal but its too hard to hear for me, see if you can figure it out using the ASCII code spreadsheet

I can't believe Jerma got his own analog horror series!
Thats what am saying!
Oh my God Jerma is secretly the spore hive mind.

THE AMONG US FUNGUS
jermer….,,
The fungus in short is called Cordyceps. It does basically turn ants and similarly sized insects into zombies that do what the fungus wants, finding a place to climb and then remain there where the spores can be strewn far.
The Last Of Us is based on a fictional version of this fungus, literally referred to as Cordyceps in the game, so it was a mutation that functioned differently and specialized on humans.
Media needs to leave Cordyceps alone already. It's being used way too much now. They're piledriving it into the ground, are beating the dead horse past the point of recognition, and are in orbit around Jupiter from how far they jumped the shark. It's lost all "oomph".
Such a fungus could never actually work on humans because human brain cells/nerves are obviously way more advanced than that of an ant xd
@@zaingamingtv2242 still a bit possible in a way. Some parasites make you crave things which is the basic version of controll
@@LeHyperTech cordyceps is literally prescribed as a medicine for humans. That how harmless it is. But in all fairness the goal of all bacteria and for that matter fungus isn't to kill the host but to simply leech off the nutrients the host acquires. Death of the host is nothing more but an unwanted side effect. Fungus will never evolve to harm humans cuz there is no point doing so. Some of the most deadliest bacteria are cross species bacteria that don't harm the species they initially evolved to adapt to. Also fungus and parasites are living things. It's weird but I will say that fungus do no mutate like bacteria. They are very much "stable".
@@zaingamingtv2242 Obviously it wouldn´t work in a sense of directing a new action, but it very much could work in the sense of enhancing aggressive behaviour to the point someone just rampages, and spores transmitted throughout lungs etc. is likely too. At that point it wouldn´t be cordyceps anymore and it´d be more likely to be some whole ´nother fungus transmutation.
21:21 Ryan saying "I'm seeing noise" gives the same vibes as "I'm hearing colors"
noise as in tv noise, also known as tv snow, which you make into ice cream in There is No Game, a game that Ryan played and you should definitely watch
the get ryan money grind never stops
Noise isn’t just audio. “Noise” also is a type of visual affect
there's a condition called synestia and it makes you see sound
*I can’t hear you it’s too dark in here* vibes
"I CAN SEE SOUND"
"I CAN HEAR COLORS"
"I FORGOT HOW TO SHET"
Variant C are like the brutes that attack you can see this by the abilities they gain which are Heightened sense, bloodthirsty, inhuman strength, inhuman stamina, and bulletproof exterior. So that would make variant B the spreaders, Variant C the brutes, and A the standard infected. I hope this was helpful to you Ryan.
All burn the same, I suppose
@@Lithuanian_NAFO_ladYep.
Iron within, iron without?
Just so you guys know, the fungus Ryan was talking about is a "Zombie" virus that infests some ants, it makes the ants basically climb up a tree to a sunny place and then grows out of the ant.
not only ants any creature that has a weaker system that the fungus can defeat whilst being the biggest a tarantula and most arachnids and its most common prey the ants
Cordyceps!
@@thesilentangel8299 its edible
he may have been talking about the fish parasite
@@m3pcstr honestly, I only remembered ants harboring the fungus. But it's interesting to know that it can affect arachnids as well.
words that you may not know the meaning
meningitis - inflammation of the tissues surrounding the brain and spinal cord, usually from ''infection'' 3:38
senescence - the condition or process of deterioration with age ( the loss of cell's power of division and growth) 5:42
acetylcholine - is a neurotransmitter, a chemical that carries messages from your brain to your body through nerve cells 6:23
Thanks man
For a while I avoided “The Smile Tapes” because many of the thumbnails made it seem like a ripoff of Mandela Catalogue. Turns out I was wrong, and I’m glad I got to watch Ryan’s reaction. Another valuable example of “Never judge a book by its cover”
yup! the "sus face" too had me thinking they were in it for views instead of making something cool. im glad i gave it a chance after a few vids
CLICK BAIT. that's what that is called. So no, do, judge a book by its cover only sometimes.
@@BlackMoonHowls i mean. idk if they were ever *trying* to use mandela for clicks it just happened to seem similar. so idk if i'd use the term clickbait here but sure
I just think the nature of analogue horror is that it can have similar visual styles. So a lot of analogue horror has ended up looking a bit like the Mandela Catalogue, but then that's understandable, it inspired a lot of people.
It if anything reminds me of a movie called smile, tho it’s less of a virus and more of a curse.
At 38:45 when it says that the microbe might be extraterrestrial it's because the Peninsula de Yucatan region in México (shown in the map) is where the asteroid that wiped the dinosaurs hit. So the virus came in that asteroid.
Hope Ryan sees it
Dang
Well, it said that the virus supposedly came from an insect that was crystallized by amber. Then again, the insect might have contracted the fungus after the asteroid impacted.
And also maybe the asteroid was actually small in the universe and the microbe was a more potent form of the virus so it killed off the dinosaurs
@@TheBigGyattNuke So,smiling dinosaurs?,that shit would be creepy tho
The "Variant C" part is actually the first time I have gotten teary eyed like Ryan and truly, deeply uncomfortable during an analog horror. Well done creators!
Dangggggg, this is really REALLY late but I'd recommended an analog horror named Vita Carnis. It definitely has some scary audio and concepts.

@@CowKirboi think a close one could be rabies. even though it doesn’t spread like the one mentioned in the video, it’s a close one
To be completely honest, I love the thought of more horrors like this that are just grim, awful, and gruesome but either have a happy ending like this or at the least end off with a glimmer of hope given in a dark and cruel world. I get that it's certainly not going to be for everyone, some would even say it ruins the horror, but I personally think it makes the horror better. If a protagonistic force is unstoppable, a narrative will quickly run dull. The same can be said with an antagonistic force
I completely agree
@@stingraymaster9168 Completely forgot I made this comment
With all due respect I disagree with that statement, making an antagonistic force unstoppable gives the sense of absolute dread that we are Done for.

Something interesting to me? The smile disease could be a reference to depression and/or anxiety. "Behind this fake smile I am in physical and mental anguish." When you think about it... those things are pretty scary too.
:fear:
yeah but is it just me but around 5:41 the word patient turns into subject they could be an experiment

Fire is the most obvious weapon. The skin was described as dried and taut across the body in the later stages. They would go up like kindling.

It would be really cool if Ryan started to subtly smile wider and wider as the video went on to freak us out.
LMAO YEAH
So I have a few things to say. In the beggining the radio signal thing, it could have been communication between "This man" and infected, because they saw him in dreams and the signal was at night. Then in 27:27 of your video, there were words at the bottom saying gunfire - evisceration - cannibalism - sporing. And the rest I had in mind you already said.
PS: it wasn't binary, it was hexadecimal to ascii
I don't remember how to convert hexa to ascii. I remember learning it in school
@@supercatmanvrcex is from 0-F with values of 0-15, hex numbers have 2 digits
The hex number A1 is (16*10) + (1*1) so 161
Then that number is converted to its value in the ASCII table
We need more.
Are the radio signals saying anything or are they just random?

Also Jerma has his ow analogue horror, that is amazing :D
they're def not hundreds of ballistic missiles, since lucas sutterfield survived that and moved to san francisco after too
I think the dog (Max) was killed by its owner because like said before, the fungus makes you violent, and it also stated that max was fine the day before which means it wasn’t that likely for Max to pass away due to disease.
I really love this series, instead of minimalist IRL footage of someone walking through their house with a monster implied to be there, we actually get to see the monsters and hear what they do. It’s what makes it scary, as nothing is left to the imagination.
Idk, i feel like leaving it to the imagination makes it scarier, since whatever gaps your mind fills in about the "monster" or whatever the threat is in a horror scenario is way worse than most things clearly shown to you.
Definitely not. Horrors left to the imagination is much scarier than those that are fully revealed. Even in real life, if someone or something is in your home, you're going to more terrified not knowing who or what it is and more importantly where it is compared to seeing very clearly what the intruder looks like and what weapons they are carrying and where they are moving through the house through a security system.
@@thelelanatorlol3978 Well, creating unknown is creating dread, the feeling that something is wrong, that something is off. Showing the monster, showing it to be a real, tangible threat creates a flight-or-fight response, it makes you want to run. That's why horror games often have chase scenes, it's a way to get you to feel in danger. Dread lasts longer, but that terror feels far more intense. Which one you use depends on the feel you want the story to have.
see that's why vita carnis genuinely scares me they show the creature in many aspects doing all these things but it makes it more terrifying when you don't get info like how to kill them. It's just "all you can do is run or hide and both don't work very well" it just makes me scared.(this is particularly with the mimics)
thats the difference between horror and terror
Who knew, the best way to survive a demonic smiling fungus is to just be really sad.
Depression got ya
Depressed people: The Expert
Interesting to me how easily this applies to modern day. People tend to hide behind fake smiles so that they don’t seem sad. Problem is, the more they hide, they more they believe they’re okay. Little do they know, it’s slowly killing them.

Never get tired of Ryan being Ryan
I AM GLAD RYAN NOTICED, yes! It is like the same thing as that zombie fungus called Cordyceps! It happens on both ants and praying mantises
Actually, cordyceps works on all insects. Beetles, locusts, all of them.
there’s a similar fungal growth that grows on mammals, but only rabbits. It’s like a bunch of spikes on their head
it happens to any insect or any small animals being the biggest a tarantula since they got a weaker immune system and since the humans mammals fishes and the others have stronger immune system its quite safe to get contact with since the fungai is anywhere between food plants and others any animal who gets in contact will get infected whilst being normal for 2-3 days after that time they stop and start acting differently and after a week or 2 it'll get complete control over all of the body and will start getting somewhere to stay and grow spores and after that it'll spread to other places and restart its things and also the fungus are really good for us since the body kill the fungus and gives nutrients to the body and if the disease or any deadly parasites have the strength to attack the immune system and get control it would take years to recover if its not that strong but if the diseases has enough power to infect anything it may lead into human and life extinction
@@VelociraptorWithInternet I only know them on either spiders, ants or mantises because that was the documentary showed to me
The last of us 0-0
7:34 Ryan is thinking of cordyceps. It's a fungus that infects ants and turns them into zombies basically and makes them go to a high point, grows something out of the ants, and a bird eats them and spreads the fungus farther.

It's called Vampire Wars and it's NOT for the faint of heart nor the average zoomer F head. So watch out it's an Adult 80's era anime maybe 90's. You can find it on YT if you search hard enough.
"average zoomer f head"?

pretty creepy.
Edit: just like the first one, not sure if this has been debunked already but abaliomundo risus translates into "the world's laughter" in latin.
At 21:12 it says "Shaun did the right thing" its only for a second but its creepy reading that
I did this the long way by shifting it without using anything, but yeah. Also, it's shifted 15 (left to right) if you do it manually.
To be honest, The Smile Tapes was in fact a weird concept, which I originally thought of when I first see it pop up online, but nowadays it feels like people can me scary sus faces most of the time.
Anyways, definitely enjoyable seeing you reacting to some more analog horror tapes and VHS videos, and I do really hope that you are having a wonderful day mate.
Also by the way, the quality of these tapes are getting really good as the days go on
Also, the fungus you're thinking of is the _cordyceps_ fungus, an ascomycete fungus (meaning it's a 'sac fungus,' because of its preferred method of germination inside the ascus (from ancient Greek _Askos_ ,meaning 'sac' or 'wineskin') that nonmotile spores accumulate, expanding the mushroom until they pop in a spore cloud, and are carried on the wind. Cordyceps differs from most of its brethren however, in that it is actually classified as an endoparasitoid fungus, mostly on insects and other arthropods.
And if the name _cordyceps_ sounds familiar, it should: the zombies of _The Last of Us_ are essentially the victims of a mutated strain of _cordyceps_ that now affects people rather than bugs.

@@redundant4456 not like _this_ no but something in a similar direction could happen. Cordiceps IS a thing and it only takes the right mutations for this whole crap to either turn into the last of us or something similar. In fact, Last of us is probably the closest thing we have of a scenario that could happen IRL. Of course the chance of the right mutation happening is so minute it's virtually impossible, but with enough time it could happen
@@KryptoKn8 yeah no still not happening. You underestimate just how advanced human nerves are in comparison to an ant. Also cordyceps is literally prescribed as medicine for some people and is good for your body lol. That's how harmless it is. Fungus isn't bacteria either so it doesn't just randomly mutate. Besides fungus don't actively try to kill their hosts they just want to leech off their resources. The host dying is actually an inconvenience for the fungus if anything.
Actually you’re not wrong as that virus has moved on to moose and deer and scientists fear it can go to humans. The only way it can get to us is if we eat the infected dear or moose but later on with mutations it can maybe transfer to us

MAYBE he is in his head and the real him is running around trying to find an escape from the spores. and hes just trying to find a way to be connected to the real world again
?
Thats a very good theory.
24:39 I can’t quite figure out what the numbers that the voice is saying but for anyone who can I suspect it to be a simple number to letter translation (1=A 2=B 3=C etc.) it could also be a shift (1=Z 2=A 3=B) or scramble (random numbers up to 26 mean random letters), it is probably the first option though
It's not direct number to letter, I just don't know what it is
There are a few reasons why people find Smiles creepy since the misplaced trust of a smile can let people drop their guard, like a doctor smiling after the death of a patient or a politician smiling after being called a liar and so many more ways
Bruh you're missing the point that's uncanny valley, The SMILE "drug" (fungus) forms this rigor Mortis like state on your face forcing a smile while rapidly aging and deteriorating your face making you insane, so you attack others to spread the spores inside of you, it takes over your mind. The fungus makes this over-sized larger than belief smile on your face and makes you into a biological death machine.

@@BlackMoonHowls Thanks for that, but chemical warfare is a terrifying thing, which yes this takes in another world thank goodness, but dreams are another very scary thing it's where your brain and body are at their most vulnerable, meaning dream manipulation can cause irreversible mental damage.

Ryan rlly finding gold with some of these:)
Hi Ryan! your videos are always genuinely entertaining, and the way you comment while playing games or reacting is how I like people to do so, keep up the good work!
fun fact: the text that flashed on screen at 21:22 is a Affine Cipher which translates to "WE ARE FAMILY" the text is "hplcplqlxtwj" if you wanna check for yourself
So, what I think is that, initially, this was meant to represent heavier topics like depression or other mental illnesses, where people just hide behind their smile, acting like they don't have anything wrong with them, like they are doing fine, with nothing wrong with them, laughing and smiling just like everyone else. Eventually, it seems to go away from this kind of topic, and towards a more usual horror situation.
This makes me think it could also sort of be an allegorical thing for people like that, symbolizing how when you hide all your negative emotions to cope, it always proves unhealthy, because when you bottle it up, it always winds up with you breaking down or lashing out at some point. Obviously this series would still be an incredibly meta hyper-realism take on that in a horror setting, but still.
You're lost in the sauce

Love these ARGs. Always creepy and pretty close to reality which makes them even creepier.
thats analogue horror not an arg.
I think variant C is like the smile fungus's version of a super soilder because it must have realized how ineffective the first A variant was against all the human weaponry.
The things that i mostly liked its how the start was sightly calm, only a dangerous disease which people didn't worry that much, to the point where they knew the apocalypse has started, forming panic and agony on earth, and the evolution of the infected, at starting only one type, then creating beasts that even humanity couldn't handle.

6:59 that is the best transition in between videos i have ever seen
Is it just me or does this just put a smile on your face
LMAO
my mouth hurts.
My face hurts

8:31the flour wasnt really flour but spores. the man was probably a spore puffer.
6:33 The Fungus you are thinking of is called the Cordyceps also known as the zombie fungus, they take control of bugs and before they die, bring the bug to a high point where they bite down as the fungus bursts out their body, scattering spores everywhere looking for a host. A similar parasitic pathogen takes over snails. Making them commit suicide to get eaten by a bird so they can infect the bird.
YESSSS ANOTHER REACTION VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING! Your reactions are always so fun and never fail to make me feel good! Sometimes my best friend calls me and falls asleep with me watching Ryan in the background 😂😂 she said my favorite RUclipsrs have comforting voices
Can't believe they turned The Batman Who Laughs into an analog horror.

The code is 53 4d 49 4c 45 and in hex it translates to "smile"
27:46 sussy smile
1:51 Ryan when he sees your search history
5:45 senscence means deterioration process through aging
You could make a killer point and click game out of a concept like this
4:04 when the imposter is sus
The thumbnail got me confused for the style it was made. Pretty amazing to see an amazing guy watch an amazing series. :]
I'm only an hour late. Also Ryan I know you'll probably never read this with all the other comments you get but you really brighten things for me. As a humble fan I hope you're doing good and I always enjoy a good laugh or scare with you. Though your edits sometimes scare me more than the game. 🤣 Keep on keeping on Ryan and thanks for the content. Always a treat.
Shut up -.-
Respect to a fellow Ryan fan
It's a shame the creator has retired this series, one of the few analogue horrors where I was there from video 1 and I loved it, even if you think the faces thing is cliche, I dunno, I still have this primal enjoyment of it
7:27 you are talking about the ant fungus here is some info I found on the web about it
The fungus Ophiocordyceps camponoti-floridani can infect ants and manipulate their behaviour in a way that is beneficial for fungus growth and transmission. These infected ants are also called zombie ants. Influenced by the fungus, the ants climb to a high point and bite into a branch, attaching themselves until death

F1rts....
Finally the Smile Tapes Analog Reaction.
28:25 Did anyone notice the face in the window?
Variant A - the first variant.(Psychotic state.)
Variant B - Carrier variant. (The host doesn't know.)
Variant C - ???
Don't have a name for them (A & C) yet but...
C is very scary.
-Heightened Senses.
-Bloodthirsty.
-Increased Strength and Stamina.
-Bulletproof Exterior.
38:46 Means that the Microbe was from space.
And not from earth.
53:30 The Mule. Like a Drugmule.
A donkey that was used to bring things around.
The man used himself to spread the virus again?
Or he thought it was drugs from the black market.
28:25 That’s some serious FNaF 1 “silver eyes” bullshit right there.
53:30 I think the guy thought it was like an expensive type of crack or something and sniffed it then boom infected.
@@vov0626 I think they use themselves as some sort of vessel to keep the virus going on and on
53:30 he didnt spread the virus again, that was just showing the man who killed the dude that was hiking and how he got infected
32:05
The sequence of numbers and letters is a hexadecimal code which says "a soulle"
3:50 when the imposter is sus!!!!
Ryan:” i don’t think i wanna smile again..”
also ryan: (smiles)
13:10 maybe it was the rats... or the ruber room
Do u guys see the man was behind the screen 15:32
Ryan "I don't think I ever want to smile again"
Also Ryan "smiles while saying it"
6:22 Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that has a number of uses by our brains and bodies. In the brain, it helps with arousal, motivation, and memory, in the body it helps with the regulation of muscle contraction and body movement alongside dopamine. In Parkinson's patients, who lack dopamine while maintaining average to high levels of acetylcholine, suffer from uncontrolled movements and rigidity of the muscles caused by the imbalance. I think that those suffering from this fungal infection may be suffering something similar to Parkinson's Disease but it mainly affects there facial region as opposed to their other body parts.
21:15 those letters translate to “we are a family”
thx
A whole hour of Ryan it’s a dream come true ❤🖤
