@@taiguy53 I mean yeah… they grew attached to it. Some people can laugh at roadkill in weird positions, but if something you’ve raised dies that affects you
The most unrealistic thing about this was no one complaining about the smell due to the body decomposition. Imagine, if the smell of a real size body after 3 days of death is awful what about a giant's body?! That got me wondering, there's no way people would be there like nothing, not with the smell...there's no way.
I think this is an analogy of how we treat death. A lot of the comments are focusing on the smell, or on how are the people not freaking out. The giant could be any one of us, and this is probably how strangers would treat your own dead body.
a lot of people in these comments are like "wow, it says a lot about society because this is what totally would happen"... but it wouldn't happen. I have zero idea why people are insisting it would happen or people would treat this situation this way, even if there wasn't a terrible smell. The far more realistic outcome is everyone would be frightened of it and/or attach religious and spiritual significance to it. If we were being even more realistic, nobody would be able to even go near it because the government would have closed it off.
They wouldn't hide but they would also not allow them to stay near the giant the government would have taken the ownership of the dead giant for research purpose and to investigate where and how did this reached here.
They could it cover it so easily but they would of taken the body as soon as possible and no county would let it rot that's a giant Biohazard literally
If this happened in real life, there is no way that there would be just one scientist that is assigned to this and to just 'keep tabs on it'. The entire beach would be sectioned off and quarantined and there would be an entire camp of scientists and technicians working on studying the giant and collecting tissue samples 24/7. Eventually the body would get chopped up and the parts taken away to a more established facility where they'd likely preserve them for further study.
To understand the movie you can't take it too literally, the giant is actually a washed up whale. Of course we wouldn't treat an actual giant like this but when it's just a whale, sure. I think that the reason a whale is portrayed as a human, is because we see through Steven's point of view, to him this magnificent beast is worth as much, if not more than the humans. So he just thinks of it as a human, like him, instead of a washed up whale.
The Drowned Giant was originally a short story by JG Ballard, the same person who wrote "High Rise" (made into a 2015 film with Tom Hiddleston), and "The Drowned World". It is about human reaction to death and isn't really supposed to reflect the real world at all because it's about human psychology and our reaction to death.
He felt that way bc he was the only person acting like a real human being there..I felt the same way he's feeling, Steven isn't the giant he's just being a real human being
Its not that deep, its basically just trying to shame people that see a blue whale beaching as a spectacle instead of being respectful to the animal, but saying "what if the whale were a person?" Its childish.
It literally took me the first two minutes to realize that this was animated. Edit: How are people still commenting on this Edit Edit: It really took me about 15 seconds.
Why cant you guys just understand that not everyone has the same eyes If some people doesnt immediately realize that it was an animation then props to the animators and the one who rendered it That they really did a great job
Animated yes, but the model they used was actor Jonathan Groff who played King George, III in Hamilton and Kristoff in Frozen. I wonder, How much money was Jonathan paid to do this?? BIG BUCKS, I'm sure!
it seems sad, but realistically someone would pay millions for the head or even a finger bone, and put it in museum to be admired, or perhaps a wealthy elite will buy it and use it as a source of inspiration. The book's take is a little too dramatic and depressing, there's a lot of positives that could come from that.
This is absolutely devastating and heartbreaking. This giant's body was completely disrespected all the way. People climbing and jumping on the body, the graffiti and slurs drawn on him, his body being completely dismembered and amputated and then his bones and body parts displayed everywhere around the town. It's honestly really disgusting and shameful. If I was the main guy I would've stepped in and tried to save the body. No way in hell will I let a creature's body be disrespected like that. We wouldn't let beached whales be treated that way. I wouldn't let the same thing for a mythological creature. Also it took me minutes into the video to realize that this is entirely animation.

You cling so much to material body. It's just a bunch of material operated by electricity. When the electricity is cut and the controller cease to function, it's no more than a wreck. Why do you respect a corpse while you - I'm sure, don't deny - sometimes disrespect living people?

I loved the fact that he analysed the metaphor of the entire episode. This also made me deep: our reactions to the ‘death of the giant’ could say a bit about our views on humanity, suffering and how we empathise too! I literally was thinking, ‘it’s like a dead whale - don’t sit on it, help it!!’ I sympathised with the giant so much, without even knowing who or _what_ exactly it was… it’s interesting how we can interpret it all so differently
I think this represents no matter how big, famous, special, unique you are someday you will just a piece of fragment, flesh that will die. And some parts of you will only remember and can some use as something in useless ways.
Is no one gonna talk about the fact that this movie is animated, like I get this level of quality is casual now but still it's amazing to see how realistic animations have gotten.
I like to imagine the main character is imagining a beached whale as his dead son. His son might have been a celebrity who succumbed to drug addiction which is symbolized by him decomposing, this makes his father feel less of a connection to his son. The graffiti represents how people treated him as a commodity, it's like social media hate-posts. His legacy is represented after he fully decomposes and his bones are collected by the towns people, he's still treated as a commodity, he's just no longer the center of attention. Like the video mentioned; he's now a myth/legend.
"We humans, like the giant. Will someday fade away and remain only the memories of the people we met. But eventually, those memories would fade as well." That was deep.
It's heartbreaking that people are stepping up giants and taking pictures, giant's eyes speak a lot of things, and his sparkling eyes were full of msg but there were only jerks and dumb were zoning out.
Plot twist: This is actually the origin story of Attack on Titan. Edit: I never thought I would get this much likes and NO at same time. 😂 I’m sorry I couldn’t help it. I was actually looking for someone who commented an AOT reference but I wasn’t able to find one so I just did. Thanks for the likes and sorry for the cringe 😂.
This movie just turned dark really fast. The feeling of us being a memory to others we've met along the way will fade slowly as time passes by. In the end. All of us will be forgotten. It's just depressing and terrifying at the same time.
It saddens me how instead of being respectful of someone that passed away people graffiti, amputate, and play on it. That's just sick and demonic honestly. Other then that I dont think something as huge as this in real life would have been a trend that just faded away so quickly. There would be so many things people would be trying to discover and things we would be realizing. It would probably start a panic attack as well for many people as well. I remember hearing of how someone hacked into a radio section and pretended there would be an alien invasion, you had many people killing themselves and their family members. Something like this would invoke panic in many crazy people too. It wouldnt have been this calm and peaceful. Only explanation would be that they werent in the u.s.😂
The War of the Worlds radio program wasn't a hack thing. They said at the beginning that it was just a story, but some people tuned in afterwards and missed that part.
1.Accurations are performed from corpses if they agree to a certain amount of money before a person dies.2.Amputation can save the lives of many people.
@@jasonvoorhees6547 1. The giant never gave consent before it died to humans. 2. So far we see people amputate and use the Giants body parts for basically show and tell plus memory purposes. They weren't using it to save lives. Your comment only works for humans who properly did what they were supposed to towards a deceased corpse. That was never shown within the movie. And the experiments performed on the giant more then likely would be based on what exactly it is, how similar it's DNA is to humans it's age, and so forth. The odds of someone using it to save a life would be low.
@@jvanek8512 you don't often see the male being the abused one, and within society in comparison to females that abuse ratio is different. So people being offended by a subject that happens more often would make a lot of sense don't you think? Even most men haven't bat an eyelash towards this show due to the fact that it isn't an issue that most men face symbolically. I think that may be the reason.
this is like the the gullivers travels but the humans are the lilliputians and the giant is the gulliver. i am not talkin about the story line. i am talking about the layout of the movie.
Yeah right, they definitely would go to the corpse without any fear and let there children play on it,a mass panic definitely wouldnt occur,they definitely would spray on it like its a wall, they definitely would cut it apart like it’s easy to do, they definitely would forget about it only a couple of days later, governments definitely wouldnt protect the body. What psychopathic place do you live in for you to think like this?
“For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.” Ecclesiastes 9:5 NIV
The point of the story is we are all dead people. Everyone of us will die at some time or other. It is what we leave behind that matters. Also myths are stronger than reality. When memory fades away they are replaced by myths.
Welp, for me, the giant is actually you. The people is the society making fun of you and tearing you apart. You(the giant) drowned in sadness or pain or whatever stresses you that is caused by the society, for example, body shaming. Since you already drowned and died inside, the society starts making fun of you and tearing you into pieces. They don't care and still continue to do it. The stages of decaying is actually the stages of you changing into someone you don't want to be, mentally losing the real you. The protagonists in this episode is actually still you, watching as the people slowly kill you more. You're the only one who feel empathy upon yourself. The bones are the pieces you can never connect. That's the way I understand this, and I also accept the opinion of others.
That's also partially how I feel upon watching this. The fish in the giant's hands, the giant's gentle features, the fact this adult giant never shown itself nor caused any harm. In a way this giant seems like a greater being worthy of more than us humans. But watching people playing, humiliate and degrade the giant makes me feel... sad. Because that's exactly what we would do to things other than giants. We will ridicule the greatest things and make them into myths. Makes me wonder what the natural state of humans are suppose to be? Good? Evil? The way they treated the giant.. it was neither.. playing and doing things to a body that isn't alive viewed as a robot seem unimportant. But.. with those with a mind and soul, we recognize respect. Maybe the giant should've been buried. Maybe the government should've taken the giant for research, but the slow decay, the way humans marvel then get uninterested. Do we even have values as a species anymore? We destroy, we ridicule, we turn great beings into myths. Like the millions of Native Americans that once freely roamed North America, reduced to a tiny minority. It's much more better to forget and ignore these things, that way we won't burden our minds, but in the back of my mind I wish things were different. I wonder what'll happen if we're extinct and a new life form replaces us. Will they mock us? Will they respect us? Will they forget us? ... no... we were here, just weird beings that came into existence.

Wow, the message it conveys just hits me hard. When we pass, we live through the memories of our family, but they will pass on as well and the world will forget about us. But I think that's okay. That's just the way it is to be a living thing. We are born, experience things, then go.
To me, a fulfilling life does not necessarily mean everyone will remember you afterwards, but that you lived your life the best you could and find someone who truly loves you, then I won’t have any regrets
@@sereneceline you're right, you don't have to be famous or leave a mark on this world. As long as you know yourself that you are happy and loved, that's enough.
The only thing we could do to be immortal is to do great things, doing so a person can be immortal in everyone's memories. This is the only was to live forever and proof of E X I S T E N C E
As every person in this episode is CGI, it gives me hope for future shows and films to use this to quite an effective degree. I'd like to see a Warhammer 40K series with this level of quality animation rather than live-action.
personally, this speaks to us on a deeper level, like Adam mentioned one day we will pass away, perhaps if we made some good connections in some people's memories and in their stories our existence may live on. The pics, the media that we chose, the songs that we liked, the things that we did in our own past times, that also is experienced by the most closest to us, some friends, parents and maybe siblings and if possible some relatives, maybe on the most deepest levels, only 10 people know us throughout our lives. whether it's our parents, spouse, children and friends and no one else beyond. with our passing, remains our memories and the stories of ours, and that too will wither away, with time as our own children, their children and subsequently our traces vanish off of the earth in the long run, maybe somehow a pic of ours smiling chilling with the boys at the beach is found at the beach 100 years later buried but now found. and the one that finds it will wonder about that pic, the people in the pic that lived, before it becomes some part of some museum that preserves it for the next generation to visit and look at the lives lived by. So, what is the point of living such a life where u r only living. perhaps the motive of life is to still doing all these things, with and to all these people, and perhaps to do it so well, that it reaches most people, that it helps most of them, and maybe lives on, to create and expedite something, a legacy that lives and improves for the people. that is itself a very symbol of what we have been, us as humans. Our humanity.
Man. The animation on this is so good. How come I've never come accross this show? Thank you mystery recapped. Actually, a lot of people love this channel for helping them save time on movies. But I get to discover really crazy shows on here.
What's even more disturbing? I didn't realize this was computer generated, until I noticed Steven didn't seem quite right. I knew the giant was, but the rest of the people, at least at first glance, looked real.
This episode made me feel so miserable, desperate..dissappointed and sad, but in a way that filled me with a weird sense of joy having experienced those feelings over a fictional event. It is truly masterfully written..
Unless the giant's flesh is made of a special kind of meaty rubber that smells like petals when left in the open to decay, the putrid stench would have literally killed off the entire town.
Narration is great but I also love how you explain the movie at the end, theories and interpretations included. Very professional. Thank you, for your hard work.

I loved the fact that he analysed the metaphor of the entire episode. This also made me deep: our reactions to the ‘death of the giant’ could say a bit about our views on humanity, suffering and how we empathise too!
I literally was thinking, ‘it’s like a dead whale - don’t sit on it, help it!!’ I sympathised with the giant so much, without even knowing who or _what_ exactly it was… it’s interesting how we can interpret it all so differently
I think this represents no matter how big, famous, special, unique you are someday you will just a piece of fragment, flesh that will die. And some parts of you will only remember and can some use as something in useless ways.
‘People get enough playing with the giant’ had me weezing
Is no one gonna talk about the fact that this movie is animated, like I get this level of quality is casual now but still it's amazing to see how realistic animations have gotten.
WOAH!!!I didn't even notice that it's animated at all....that's actually so cool

@@Howitgoes799 the wonder of watching videos in 240p
I like to imagine the main character is imagining a beached whale as his dead son. His son might have been a celebrity who succumbed to drug addiction which is symbolized by him decomposing, this makes his father feel less of a connection to his son. The graffiti represents how people treated him as a commodity, it's like social media hate-posts. His legacy is represented after he fully decomposes and his bones are collected by the towns people, he's still treated as a commodity, he's just no longer the center of attention. Like the video mentioned; he's now a myth/legend.
Beautiful
I was also thinking that the giant might have been a celebrity; I came to see if anyone else thought this lol

it's shocking that i came to your comment exactly when the narrator started saying these lines. this is scary lol. 🤯🤯🤯
And you're 14
It's heartbreaking that people are stepping up giants and taking pictures, giant's eyes speak a lot of things, and his sparkling eyes were full of msg but there were only jerks and dumb were zoning out.
Plot twist: This is actually the origin story of Attack on Titan.

@@isalxy. yeah
The giant is a whale and the main character feels empathy and personifies him that's why his genitals were labeled as a whale's.
I think so too but it was odd how they didn't deal with the body like they do with whale corpses I mean blowing it up to ease the moving process
Actually no, the book shows it as human

This movie just turned dark really fast. The feeling of us being a memory to others we've met along the way will fade slowly as time passes by. In the end. All of us will be forgotten. It's just depressing and terrifying at the same time.
Is nobody gonna talk about the incredible detail that was put into this for an animation...
I think that, it's crazy how calm everyone is in this movie
"The episode has a deep and metaphor communing"
Mystery recapped got the most interesting movies
It saddens me how instead of being respectful of someone that passed away people graffiti, amputate, and play on it. That's just sick and demonic honestly. Other then that I dont think something as huge as this in real life would have been a trend that just faded away so quickly. There would be so many things people would be trying to discover and things we would be realizing. It would probably start a panic attack as well for many people as well. I remember hearing of how someone hacked into a radio section and pretended there would be an alien invasion, you had many people killing themselves and their family members. Something like this would invoke panic in many crazy people too. It wouldnt have been this calm and peaceful. Only explanation would be that they werent in the u.s.😂
The War of the Worlds radio program wasn't a hack thing. They said at the beginning that it was just a story, but some people tuned in afterwards and missed that part.
1.Accurations are performed from corpses if they agree to a certain amount of money before a person dies.2.Amputation can save the lives of many people.
@@jasonvoorhees6547 1. The giant never gave consent before it died to humans. 2. So far we see people amputate and use the Giants body parts for basically show and tell plus memory purposes. They weren't using it to save lives. Your comment only works for humans who properly did what they were supposed to towards a deceased corpse. That was never shown within the movie. And the experiments performed on the giant more then likely would be based on what exactly it is, how similar it's DNA is to humans it's age, and so forth. The odds of someone using it to save a life would be low.
@@jvanek8512 you don't often see the male being the abused one, and within society in comparison to females that abuse ratio is different. So people being offended by a subject that happens more often would make a lot of sense don't you think? Even most men haven't bat an eyelash towards this show due to the fact that it isn't an issue that most men face symbolically. I think that may be the reason.
@@jvanek8512 cry

That is about right
Exempt one of the giants survived.
Deep, dark and definitely interesting. You have the best voice for narrations
This is just like when you drop a small food on the ground, it's for the ants attractions as well.
This sounds like what humans would actually do if this was real.
Not really

no lmao what
Yeah right, they definitely would go to the corpse without any fear and let there children play on it,a mass panic definitely wouldnt occur,they definitely would spray on it like its a wall, they definitely would cut it apart like it’s easy to do, they definitely would forget about it only a couple of days later, governments definitely wouldnt protect the body. What psychopathic place do you live in for you to think like this?
Ngl I don’t doubt thst
“For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.” Ecclesiastes 9:5 NIV

The most unrealistic thing is how they look real even if it’s animated
Yeah it's looks real in far but animated in close
I don’t know about them but I wouldn’t play on a dead man’s decomposing corpse, nor sit in his ear of all places
That just weird and nasty 😂
Thank you for pixeling out the naughty bits!
The point of the story is we are all dead people. Everyone of us will die at some time or other. It is what we leave behind that matters. Also myths are stronger than reality. When memory fades away they are replaced by myths.
Summarise:
Steven has a crush on a giant naked man

Is there any reason why JG Ballard is not being credited?
Welp, for me, the giant is actually you. The people is the society making fun of you and tearing you apart.
You(the giant) drowned in sadness or pain or whatever stresses you that is caused by the society, for example, body shaming.
Since you already drowned and died inside, the society starts making fun of you and tearing you into pieces. They don't care and still continue to do it.
The stages of decaying is actually the stages of you changing into someone you don't want to be, mentally losing the real you.
The protagonists in this episode is actually still you, watching as the people slowly kill you more. You're the only one who feel empathy upon yourself.
The bones are the pieces you can never connect.
That's the way I understand this, and I also accept the opinion of others.
I agree all the way
I wouldn't say this is me tbh
That's also partially how I feel upon watching this. The fish in the giant's hands, the giant's gentle features, the fact this adult giant never shown itself nor caused any harm. In a way this giant seems like a greater being worthy of more than us humans. But watching people playing, humiliate and degrade the giant makes me feel... sad. Because that's exactly what we would do to things other than giants. We will ridicule the greatest things and make them into myths. Makes me wonder what the natural state of humans are suppose to be? Good? Evil? The way they treated the giant.. it was neither.. playing and doing things to a body that isn't alive viewed as a robot seem unimportant. But.. with those with a mind and soul, we recognize respect. Maybe the giant should've been buried. Maybe the government should've taken the giant for research, but the slow decay, the way humans marvel then get uninterested. Do we even have values as a species anymore? We destroy, we ridicule, we turn great beings into myths. Like the millions of Native Americans that once freely roamed North America, reduced to a tiny minority.
It's much more better to forget and ignore these things, that way we won't burden our minds, but in the back of my mind I wish things were different. I wonder what'll happen if we're extinct and a new life form replaces us. Will they mock us? Will they respect us? Will they forget us? ... no... we were here, just weird beings that came into existence.
Yoo this is deep
Wrong.
The Drowned Giant was originally a short story by JG Ballard, the same person who wrote "High Rise" (made into a 2015 film with Tom Hiddleston), and "The Drowned World".
It is about human reaction to death and isn't really supposed to reflect the real world at all because it's about human psychology and our reaction to death.
the cool thing is its actually a whale, the guy just imagined it as a big human and we are following the same narrative
Is actually a human and not whale Steven all he saw is a human dead human
Finally, this show is amazing
It really is!
I was waiting and expecting that giant to wake up and everyone starts panicking and running for their lives lol.
Imagine just playing on a giant corpse thats a bit wierd
I guess that's what it's like for ants, then? XD
Wow, the message it conveys just hits me hard. When we pass, we live through the memories of our family, but they will pass on as well and the world will forget about us. But I think that's okay. That's just the way it is to be a living thing. We are born, experience things, then go.
Well that's depressing I literally hate being born in this awful world.
@@sebajun8601 sorry if it made you feel bad 😅 still, we should try and enjoy our lives to the fullest
To me, a fulfilling life does not necessarily mean everyone will remember you afterwards, but that you lived your life the best you could and find someone who truly loves you, then I won’t have any regrets
@@sereneceline you're right, you don't have to be famous or leave a mark on this world. As long as you know yourself that you are happy and loved, that's enough.

As every person in this episode is CGI, it gives me hope for future shows and films to use this to quite an effective degree.
I'd like to see a Warhammer 40K series with this level of quality animation rather than live-action.
Idk why but I've watched this almost 10 times and everytime it hits so deep inside me...as though I can feel every scene and the explanation...

I would be sad if a giant like that had died, this actually made me cry
unless it is a titan
Didn't realise the video came out like 43 minutes ago I was just binge watching Mystery Recaps videos
personally, this speaks to us on a deeper level, like Adam mentioned one day we will pass away, perhaps if we made some good connections in some people's memories and in their stories our existence may live on. The pics, the media that we chose, the songs that we liked, the things that we did in our own past times, that also is experienced by the most closest to us, some friends, parents and maybe siblings and if possible some relatives, maybe on the most deepest levels, only 10 people know us throughout our lives. whether it's our parents, spouse, children and friends and no one else beyond. with our passing, remains our memories and the stories of ours, and that too will wither away, with time as our own children, their children and subsequently our traces vanish off of the earth in the long run, maybe somehow a pic of ours smiling chilling with the boys at the beach is found at the beach 100 years later buried but now found. and the one that finds it will wonder about that pic, the people in the pic that lived, before it becomes some part of some museum that preserves it for the next generation to visit and look at the lives lived by. So, what is the point of living such a life where u r only living. perhaps the motive of life is to still doing all these things, with and to all these people, and perhaps to do it so well, that it reaches most people, that it helps most of them, and maybe lives on, to create and expedite something, a legacy that lives and improves for the people. that is itself a very symbol of what we have been, us as humans. Our humanity.

What's even more disturbing? I didn't realize this was computer generated, until I noticed Steven didn't seem quite right. I knew the giant was, but the rest of the people, at least at first glance, looked real.
