VIDEO EDITOR: You might want to have a chat with your host. Looks like the camera is focused on the microphone setup because that's crystal clear. LOL. Yeah. He needs to move the microphone out of shot so the camera can focus on him and not the object that's closest to it (the microphone). It was the issue even in the ad for the sponsor. He looks hazy. It's headache inducing and makes people's eyes ache too (mine anyway). Thanks!
According to ancien egypt mythology, Malachite is *associated with death and the power of resurrection as well as new life and fertility* .
Congrats Eric, you managed to bring Geographics & Biographics a true comeback !!!
I'm doing everything I can. Apologies on the camera. I have a new lens, but there are a few recorded on the old one still. The new lens looks awesome, though.
Hahaha "colonization"
Love your content eric! Happy Easter ✝️✝️✝️🙏🙏🙏🙏✝️
Thanks for a great story. I’m also happy my mom’s family waited for the Mayflower. 😊
This was Eric's best video! More like this please! Keep it coming. You are entertaining
The channel delivers as always. Well done Eric, and for the dev team as well as the production team. Quality content delivered by a quality crew. Thank you!
I love the people shocked Simon didn't do the video. Its been months since he has done one here. If you're shocked, you weren't exactly watching a lot.
I lived in the NC outer banks for a while. I can't fathom what would give the English the idea that it was a suitable place for a colony. The barrier islands are essentially just wind blasted sand bars sticking above the water. Very little fresh water. Surrounded by deep water on more or less all sides. Constant danger of storms. Alligators were likely everywhere. Miserable summers and miserable winters. Especially considering this was during the little ice age which lasted from 1400-1800, time would have been tough. So they chose a sand bar. Genius. The mainland would have been a much better choice.
Roanoke island is right off the main land. The plan was never to stay on the island.
Great presentation and story. Thanks. Correct angle.
Good work as ever :D
This was actually better and more entertaining than I had expected having heard this story many times before and only clicking on the video out of sheer boredom. 👍😅
*insert Roanoke gaming reference here*

Thanks Radu
I’m sorry for your loss Eric.
Wrote about the camera fps/not being smooth issue on earlier video. Its still there. Also the camera looks a bit blurry (low res)

Horror writers love the Roanoke story. It gives us so much fodder for our stories. Just look at the sixth season of American Horror Story.
Wait what? Wheres Simon? Alright I'll give you a chance new guy
Who’s this new new guy?
Eric Malikyte. Been a writer for this channel for some time. And occasional host for several months.
@@paulherman5822 Does the Brit who replaced Simon still host episodes?
@@kingjames3949 Yes, they share hosting duties.
@@kingjames3949 Yes. But he was under the weather for a while, plus Eric shows up sporadically.
is this a long ad since it's Eric. 😂
Roanoke island always had a haunty feel to me - and I don’t even believe in that shit!
Thanks Ravu! Super fun storie.
Roanoke Colony is mention in the 2010 film Vanishing on 7th Street.
Yeah, horror writers LOVE Roanoke. I even used it for the backstory in my dark fantasy cosmic horror series.
Unlock fact boy from the basement. I guess the writers broke free and took over.
Nah, they parted ways. The channel manager posted a video saying she mismanaged the channel while dealing with the loss of her father. He originally owned the channel and when he passed, she suddenly had to learn how to run his whole business. Simon and the channel parted ways amicably and everyone is still friendly. ATM they're still in search of a permanent host. All of this applies for Toptenz too.
Surely there is a record of the
colony when they arrived,and
what they did.They cannot
disappear just like that,no way.
Gotta say, you have a badass sounding last name. 😊
Did anyone else see the coolest thing in this video besides me in the background?? Ssj goku!
RIP Akira Toriyama. It's gonna be in the bg of any video I record for a while now.
@@geographicstravel you guys are awesome
I do wonder what happened to the colonists.
I miss Simon.
He left of his own will. Stop trying to force him to come back.
@@resileaf9501 To add on to this, Simon has approximately a billionty other channels, so it's not like he's disappeared from RUclips
@@resileaf9501 He didn't say that Simon has to be brought back. He only said he misses him, and that's ok.
@@thejackal5099 Considering how many other channels Simon can be found in, missing him is really not an issue.
I agree, it's so hard to find whistler on youtube.
Who’s this handsome hairy man? Also where’s Karl?
Croatoa!
Broatoan
I thought this was one of Simon's channels?
Most probably these lost colonists were taken off by the mosquitoes... I've been there many times and some relatives have a home in Wanchese (Roanoke Island) and I can testify that the mosquitoes in that area are voracious...they fight over which one gets to take the hapless victim back into the swamp.
Great writing!
Without any of the native Croatoan there's no way to test for any traces of English DNA. If they went to live with them they for sure integrated into the tribe.
Wait? You're the host? Is Carl gone forever?
Why don’t they do some DNA testing of natives that can trace their heritage back to the Roanoke area and see if there is some European DNA mixed in.
🇺🇸🇺🇸
I hope he covers something new about this topic rather then the same info as the last 15 people to cover it.
Must have been s* in the old days
What happened to Simon?
Split from the owners of this channel and now runs his own channel called Places.
@@thejackal5099That sucks - these folks got all the subs Simon worked himself to death for across several channels. =/
@@kozad86he also has a much more engaging personality than this automaton
He passed away RIP :[
@@thejackal5099 It's hard to believe he wasn't overextended anyways. He seemed to be everywhere. Then again, maybe he's just one of those over-achievers.
Still sticking to the alien abduction theory. There's no proof for it but there's no proof against it either, 😂.
It was aliens. Definitely aliens.
Who tf is this guy
Where’s Simon!!!???
On one of his billionty other channels lol
Simon's gone. Get over it.
Been gone for months now. I don’t miss him or his shit pronunciations
This is Simon with hair transplant
Beard outgrew him
'Because there wasn't a pronunciation guide'
As if that's EVER stopped dude from butchering any pronunciation.
I don’t understand why Simon isn’t here, is he just too busy?
"America's Lost Colony"! Don't you mean "England's Lost Colony"?
After all, the USA (aka "America") didn't exist when the colony was founded in 1585 (not 1587). And didn't for another 190 years.
It was founded by the first Queen Elizabeth's England, not America. 😉
It was still North America, so it's still regionally accurate.
@@geographicstravel
It was England's lost North American colony then.
Agreed? 😉
OK who is this guy and why is the audio so freaking bad?
Bass boost much. Ugh sounds awful.
Please use a low frequency filter.
Not sure I feel enlightened on the topic after watching. We seem to see a lot of this bloke's talking head, with a few photos inserted on repeat. The last half needed expanding. The actual theories are brushed over, with each given about as much time as the alien theory. Could have better described those missing,, women, men, children? DNA evidence? Do any Indigenous people still live in the area? But basically the English massacred the Indigenous people? How many? That deserves much more time.
The narrator seems more concerned about garnering comments for his scriptwriter mate than about telling a full and interesting story.
I'm not pining for Simon - he's on too many channels and has become the ultimate script reader, inserting his oh-so-witty smart-arse comments, while clearly not being engaged in the content of the actual script he's reading.
In journalism and PR, it's a career-ending fail if you become the story. However that seems to be the style of so many channels - it's all about the host. I'd much rather get lost in a well-told, well-researched story where the narrator is not the dominant factor.
The Geo/Bio Graphics are officially losing my subscription. I subscribed for Fact Boy, not these other presenters. Just sad to see 2 of my favorite Whistler channels be left behind by the man himself. Maybe one day Simon will return. But until that day I am done. The videos just don't have the same life Simon brings to the table while discussing facts.
You didn't like this guy's South Park impression?
Omg you took the words out of my mouth. I’m sure you new presenters are great, but I’m autistic and Simon’s precise timbre and pitch, and patterns are the familiar perfection I crave.
Simon is the OG but just about anyone is better thank Karl Smallwood, or whatever his name is. He is so grating.
Simon fell off...
Unsubed. Mr whistler is just better
They litterally wrote where they went on a tree and the rescue team didn't follow it 😂 and it turns out there's a lot of evidence that they went where they pointed 🙄
No lmao. There was a single word carved in a wood post at the fort. Which was the name of a native tribe. Most likely they were killed by the tribe and the tribe left the markings. They didn’t write down “went to this place to meet these and survive etc.”
Yeah and it says castle Aaaaggghhh also because he died while carving it 🙄
What the hell happened to Simon? Not interested in this guy.
Another redux of a Simon Script.
You don't live and breathe facts....at least Simon doesn't. When it comes to politics and world events/views....all these 'graphics' channels are incredibly heavily biased to whatever the WEF view is. So don't lie. Just say nothing and you won't be called a liar, when it comes to 'living and breathing facts'.
