    Fun fact: wearing a life vest before doing “the jump” is actually more dangerous than not having one. The surface tension can be easily broken by feet, but you’re much less aerodynamic with a life vest. Also, the bouyancy of the vest with jerk you upward when you hit the water, this could slow you down much faster than what is safe. The vest can also get pushed up your chest and get over your face, making it harder to swim and breathe

      Instead of a vest, get one of those PFDs that you have to inflate yourself. That way, you can get into the water as safely as possible without the vest harming you, but if you are conscious and injured, you can manually inflate it after

      Yeah, I've jumped from a two story, maybe even three story drop into water with a lifevest, even if it's your size, it will push up above your chest to your face because you are definitely heavier and have more momentum than a foam filled jacket. I makes you more blocky in shape, which is indeed less aerodynamic and hydrodynamic, as the human body isn't really angular or blocky unless you play LOL. Might as well just try and boost your momentum or jump height to clear any rocks or cliffs, or scout out less risky clearings. Also, try to make sure your body temp isn't top different from water temp, or you could pass out from the temp shock, and, assuming you can't swim in your sleep, you'll probably drown or flood your lungs. Same difference idc.

      @@NicknotNakthat would be a great idea. Life vests and rafts have small pressurized capsules of CO2 in them that automatically pop when the bobbin inside them dissolves after contact with water. The jumper would have to do nothing, and in the case they hit something or pass out from temperature shock, it would inflate and keep their head above water until they’re either pulled out or regained consciousness. You, sir, have outnerded the nerd. Good job.

      ⁠@@heathermillsphantomlimb9314you know they do make things like that already? From what I remember they are expensive as hell and really only used in cases where falling (or crashing) into water is a reasonable fear, and especially if the conditions of said circumstance is likely to make you fall unconscious.
      Basically, they do what you said, can automatically trigger when being submerged in water for a short period of time (not fast enough to where it can happen accidentally, but not too slow that someone would drown) and can reliably keep an unconscious person in a face up position until help can come. They aren’t really used much because there’s not a ton of situations that would call for a person to carry something like that around, but they can be extremely helpful when rescuing someone from the water would take a while, such as bad weather conditions.

    “Ram the door with your shoulder.”
    I don’t know where you picked this up, but all you’ll do is bruise like a peach (or even worse sustain a shoulder dislocation) and do nothing to the door. The right tactic is to turn around and mule kick the door backward with your dominant foot right under the handle, since that maximizes the force of impact while also using your leg and knee as a piston to create more force. If it’s good enough to be part of standard breach and clear training of almost every law enforcement agency, it’s good enough in a situation like that.
    Also, rescue breaths aren’t needed, especially without proper PPE. That’s how you catch a disease. The average response time for EMS crews is around 8 - 10 minutes, which is just at the outer limits that straight compressions are viable without needing to introduce additional oxygen into the blood stream.
    Whoever did the research for those two parts deserves a pay dock, because the first strategy will get you and your friends killed in a situation like that.

      It is the most lethal disease you can catch. 3 recorded cases of survival have ever been found. 99.99% of people who catch it will die.
      And that death isn’t the “tell my family I loved them”. Rabies is a hydrophobic disease AND photophobic one. After infection it tricks the brain into thinking drinking is bad. Making you physically unable to swallow. It quite literally dehydrates you to death. As well as making you not like any form of light as the disease itself is actually easily killed by UV.

      It's also funny that he points to the bigger bats as being the ones it'd be reasonable to be afraid of, because in reality the smaller ones are much deadlier since there's a bigger chance you might not notice if you get bit, and if a rabid bat bites you and you don't notice before you start to feel symptoms, you are basically guaranteed to die.

    a tip for the tiger, tigers as well as most wild cats, are ambush predators, so best way to survive one is to to never lose him of your eyesight, they will not attack if you see them
    why?
    as i said, they are ambush predators, even one injury in the wild could be a death sentence, so the prey being aware abd having a chance to counter even if it dies, is too much of a risk for the tiger, so ironically, sitting on your butt and waiting for help while watching the tiger would be the best course of move lol

    Excellent tip about the maze. I'm surprised IRL by how few people know that. If you always follow either the left, or right wall you'll eventually find your way out. As long as it's well lit (I know Dodge's maze wasn't, but he could also see over the walls easily) you don't even need to TOUCH a wall, just follow it (including around any blatant dead ends)

    16:50 Using her immunity here is a waste of her immunity, she could've just hanged back and not participated. Like you said she already has the necessary points to move onto the next round so she could just intentionally fail instead and still pass unless there is some rule that says doing so will get you booted even if you have enough points to pass.
    18:25 That's just movie magic making things look lighter than it actually is, in reality that field was probably significantly darker than it is for us watching. Cause I've been out at night away from where artificial light was and even on a completely open field I outright couldn't see anyone further than like 30 feet from me, and even then anything closer wasn't exactly clear.
    Honestly I don't even feel like this movie was a "death game" considering only like half of the challenges were inherently life threatening. The first challenge to jump into water had major risks involved so yeah, definitely a easy death if you mess up. The tight rope if you were fine with missing out points could be taken safely. Stealing from the farm had major risks due to all the traps and insane homeowner so yeah, life threatening. The haunted house was only even remotely dangerous because of the moron starting a fire, really the only life threatening risks were from the other competitors. The walk over the abandon rails was fairly safe if you took it carefully and straddled the rails themselves instead of walking on the planks between them. The individual challenges were fairly safe, if a bit panic inducing due to playing on their fears, only really dangerous if conducted in an inherently dangerous location like the poor guy with the old farm having the floor break under him (though like him even that panic is mitigated by just convincingly pretending to have a phobia that isn't inherently dangerous). The joust though, yeah it really boils down to who has the bulkier car most likely to keep them alive in the potential collision.

    I've never actually worked with cats (big or small), but I've fed enough animals to know that it's never a game of fetch unless both the handler and animal know what to expect from each other.
    And while the tiger would probably indeed fetch thrown pieces of meat during regular feeding time, both the time of 'feeding', as well as the human 'handlers' and their behaviour in the movie are unfamiliar to said tiger.
    In the situation depicted in the movie, I would throw the meat in the tiger's path, so it could more easily notice a familiar meal on its way to the little sister.

    Can say that your video is 10x more entertaining than the show itself. I didn't even get through the first episode, at least now I know the ending.

    The sudden language change is awesome - as someone who speaks that language it was pretty cool! And _for once I didn't spoil the delight by looking through the comments too much._

    Compared to some small towns I would so do this. Yes you can die but staying in a dead town is a slow death.

    This movie is wild, it's a death game where none of the competitors die, the final is between two people not in the competition anymore and is decided by a random tiger on a stroll. Also some teenager has an IED, what a ride

    I don’t wanna be “that guy”, but at 3:41 you said gravitational constant referring to gravity. Well, the gravitational constant is actually something else, it’s value is about 6.6743 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1s^-2, while gravity is about 9.81 m s^-2. Not a huge deal, just something felt like pointing it out.
    Other than that, great video, you never fail to entertain me.

    Another note for the tiger cage thing- if we're going to do the whole "sensory overload" thing, bringing a bottle of Liquid Ass is also an excellent choice. With the trifecta of blindness, deafening, and smelling something so goddamned awful, we're sure to probably avoid death by Tiger.
    Note: This movie is so fucking stupid. Aside from everything else, why the hell did Heather get out of the pickup to approach the tiger? Such fucking stupidity. And also, the movie seems to try to set her up as some sort of heroine or something? The amount of bullshit that happened for her to get kicked out of the game, get pulled back into an event, get officially put back into the game, forfeit, and then still end up in the last fucking event somehow? Not to mention the fact that the tiger showed up to the last event at fucking all. What sort of bizarro world are these idiots living in? There's a lot more I want to point out, but I look like a complete goon ranting in somebody's youtube comments.
    Edit: And then Heather somehow won the fucking money on top of it all, what the fuck?
