Symbiosis moment

A symbiotic relationship perhaps? But then it doesn’t make sense that there is a lack of wild life around harvesters. It should be the oposite. Abundance of plants and protection from predators would be the perfect environment for small animals

honestly what I love about Vita Carnis: sure it's super natural to some degree, but it primarily revolves around taking elements of nature and creating creatures that could plausibly exist in real life (except for maybe the monolith). The harvester is my favourite monster due to how well thought out it is in its interaction with nature as a fictional wild living organism.

@@Potato-fc5zx there is a lack of large wildlife, but small animals are plentiful.

Just like clownfish.

"and addressing the public to be more careful". There ya go

@@strawberryscentedchlorofor9935 oh i missed that thank you

Sounds like the authorities have been turned to mimics

bruh, its such an easy solution, it has organs you can shoot it up or poison it they gotta be mimics XD

Killing harvesters would etheir take to many resources or just to dangeros

I'm betting "the critters" were humans that lived near the giant meat snake "prince". I'll keep watching the playlist to see where these storybook pages are going. Thank you for your efforts in typing these out. I've been watching on my phone and pausing on the right frame is a nightmare when you don't have arrow keys to frame by frame scroll.

@@TechxGuyxJames it is a pain having to time the pause but it helps reflexes if you look on the bright side

how are yall finding these

@@TechxGuyxJames why does everyone think the prince is the giant meat snake im lost

@@catherinedubov9876 Context clues such as the the prince being in a cave and the only cave like area we've seen being the tunnel with the giant snake. The prince also talks about "the creatures" as if they are much smaller and different from itself, this wouldn't make sense for a meat creature to say about other meat creatures. There are only a handful of meat creatures we've seen that are so big it's worth mentioning how small a human looks to them and the giant humanoid monoliths aren't gonna be found in any caves. There are implications that the giant meat snake was being fed tons of dead bodies by the locals which fits with the story of the creatures making a deal with the prince iirc.

I think it can be considered “horror” as it’s an analogue sorta feel to it. It’s also got the fear factor of not knowing what “really” lies beneath the surface, not just what we’re being told. The fact that certain “names” or “places” in these documentaries are censored out is to add the fear of the higher ups knowing more than the audience

you should start reading SCP

@@brickballyt I’ve read some SCP stories.

Old shows Luke the outer limits from the 60s are pretty cool. This stuff kinda reminds me of it, like as an inspiration at the very least..

I'm waiting for someone to do a deep-dive on the Vita Carnis creatures' anatomy and biology, and if nobody is going to do it, then I will.

Speak for yourself...

I DO have the fear of an elder mimic breaking into my home 💀

​@@emeraldwithasideoffries901 as an elder mimic myself, I like to hide in the dark as long as that weird looking object called a 'switch' doesn't turn on the lights

@@emeraldwithasideoffries901im mostly scared of the singularity getting within 100 metres within my house 💀

Maybe but wouldn't it attack a Meat Snake or a Mimic?

@@flamsey meat snakes and others might not grow anymore as all nutrition from crawl is being absorbed

its because the amount of energy used to attack is too substantial to waste the effort on such a small food item

3:30 it's discussed here

I think Wendigoon had some theory that it wouldn’t attack things small because it’s not worth the energy and effort for something that wouldn’t keep it fed for long

two meanings in the context of this video.

MATPAT did it its bound to go viral now

​​@@linnick4393 Yeah it was so unexpected to me

"Spread this masterpiece" IT'S ONE OF THEM KILL IT

Actually an intersting question We know that the harvester attacs within that 150 mesters range where there should be no predator and a lot of flora SO if you Just tapped the stick to that sus place it would likely get attacked by the harvester and you could escape in some time but a better tactic in my opiniom would be to have heavy rocks to throw cuz it doesn't leave any connection to you as the stick would i Look forward to Talking more about this

just wear steel boots and thick af pants and have a budy incase it still gets through. make sure you have some quick clot on hand to stop the bleeding. And the paralysis cant last forever so just wait for it to wear off.

@@final_boss69 I’m laughing at the way you say “just pick up big rocks” I’m imagining some poor guy getting hunted in the forest by one, and he just starts grabbing giant fucking boulders like the Hulk and starts chucking them at it.

@@RambunctiousReptilian oh shit yoeh tag is funny

@@trevstrevs the paralysis doesnt have to last forever just long enough for you to go into respiratory faliure and suffocate

nice to get a good meal, after nearly becoming one yourself.

thats one good dream if you ask me, minus the harvester.

@@gabrielbruce1977 I mean all it takes is some slow wide shuffles to go there or use the handy dandy gun

Industrial Harvester go brrr

Or you could carry a long spear or pike

@@krieger8825 That could help but the boom boom stick always does the job right

Hard question

depends on how hungry the meat snake is

I love that we can ponder the ecology of these creatures. Like what adaptations might other Carnis have to prevent a Harvester from consuming it? Would a Trimming be able to scavenge off prey from the Harvester? If so could we add n abundance of Trimmings in an area to the warning signs that a Harvester is nearby?

Now I’m just picturing a snake fighting the ground and screeching.

@@FloatyyBrainI thought the Carnis didn’t attack/eat other Carnis?

ive always thought the harvester was a giant egg.

In USA human eat egg,In Soviet russia,egg eat you

if that's the case, then this mf won't last 5 minutes with HowToBasic

Just, don't go near it lol. I'd rather shoot it from a distance than be it's 150m kill distance 😱

Joel miller approves of this message

@@DodgedodgesProblems who the fuck

@@Subject_98 fair, forgot the fuckin distance the tumor has

Drive by

It wouldn't overtake crops, it would use them as camo. Some poor farmer would see a mass in his field, think it was some animal eating his crops, then die when the harvester stings him. Unless he understood what it was and handled it carefully (with fire and help from the authorities).

Harvesters actually can move, but they're moving 1 non-existent Island in Canada

@@IsaiasPrieto-kd4vb i wonder how they move?

@@alexmadness19 probably like the host, they plug out and just move

Agreed. While I'm mildly disappointed because the Trimmings, Crawl, and Meat Snakes were _beneficial_ to the earth, that amazingly realistic hand more than made up for it.

@@TurtleShroom3 One could argue that the mimic is also beneficial to the earth.

Mimic + Harvester = Hidden Bulb

mimic and harvest would make a dangerous partnership

what if the mimics abducted humans and took them to harvesters so they can feed?

Just imagine. A mimic has just finished feasting on someone's infant and it heads off into the woods to digest it, and then it gets snagged by a harvester and wails like a cat giving birth, all while being thrashed around on the forest floor in the middle of the night.

@@ColinInAsweater exactlyy

The scary part about the harvester is that you don't see it coming, like you can hit by the spikes before you see the big bulb at all

@@applekhi3962 Or if you do see the bulb, chances are you may be right near one of those tendrils

@@Kurotitan7125 that's true you can see and by like "aw shit!" Because you don't know what to really do next or where to step because you may end up tripping on the spikes

but a mimic is terrifying. i'd rather peacefully bleed out than suffer from a massive anxiety attack in my very last moments because i know that a horrifying humanoid predator is gonna directly attack and eat me. of course i know that i also could be not awake... if a mimic kills me in my sleep i'd be semi-ok with it, but there are a lot of cases of them attacking a non sleeping person. and that singlehandedly seems like the worst death that could happen to you out of all of the meat creatures. plus the video for them was the most scary out of all of them imo, way worse than this one

@@ihavenoidea2805 atleast your death from the will be quick and maybe painless but with the harvester, you literally bleed out and can't move an inch and with that time you basically reflect on everything as you die slowly, which honestly scary and sad af

The issue is they never mentioned that it was weight activated, while it's the most efficient way to function we don't actually know

Dude, I have a Harvester near my woods. Let me try it, I'll come back and tell you the results.

​@@mariobroro whoops

@@mariobroro 🙏

This is bad advice considering it only makes you more vulnerable

dude, that reminds me of a time not long ago when a harvester literally started to grow in my backyard, i dont know how but it just did.

I am a few seconds in because I came out of curiosity from the film theory… how bad is it???

@@bumbledragon3648 i dont really remember i dont think it was that bad. as bad as lemon party atleast

It's not this episode that "the scene" is in. I'm guessing that you probably ended up seeing that scene by now though. :)

@@REDMOON982 no i havent

Oh the jumpscare one?

​@@liamknight1966 "Species Anomaly Report: Harvestors." They start uprooting themselves, moving closer to Hudson Bay by the month. Around this time, a small family goes hiking in the woods; a boy wanders away from his mother, before setting off the spines of a nearby harvestor. The mother finds him, and also ends up as harvestor chow. The scene is notorious, because it contains a depiction of a child's face decomposing, as well as the death wails of both mother and child.

It might just pop your tires with its tentacles, then you'll be stranded. It is no problem because you can just shot it lol- however authorities seem to have trouble dealing with it so maybe it has defensive measures against threats that go for the bulb? Maybe the bulb is like really tough or smth.

@@bobaa4268 G R E N A D E

Yeah, if you where stun on a limb, a tourniquet should work in theory.

yeah they should have ivented a something that can make the paralysis ineffective

i think their skin is very durable, its made of the same meat all other creatures are made out of and you can hear in other videos that that exact skin is very tough to damage. but i agree with you, it could still be destroyed by a few methods, for example burning? so if it stayed underground it would literally be so op and literally unkillable. but as we know evolution is not perfect. there are sometimes traits that are neautral/not really beneficial or even harmful for the organism. but as long as the animal survives, they're gonna pass that trait on to their genetic offspring (the meat vines are still gonna produce the harvesters the same way) because that's how they evolved and didn't entirely die, so they'll stay that way.

@@ihavenoidea2805 evolution is not an rpg, things dont need downsides if the creature wants to stay hidden there is no reason to grow overground it is more likely to die out by draining its environment out of bigger animals rather than anything

Same lmfao

... Uh good luck.

Easy solution: Never enter your backyard.

@@NoahTravit the roots are also in my front yard though (My back yard is small

If it is tame then it is observing you to hunt you later. If it’s fitting into human society cut all contact from them and report for reasonable mimic suspicion to authorities.

mimics aren't smart enough to make a youtube account, nor to even understand a video on mimics or harvesters.

It would probably just deflate your tires.
