Longest greens, fastest reds. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

The death message should’ve been: “Ren couldn’t handle Grian’s drip”

"they're for your secret soulmate" the poison in that sentence made me forget for just a second that this is a minecraft server that they're playing on for fun

The fact that Scar's survived until this episode is a great achievement. He died twice, nearly three, in a single episode is an even greater achievement

A "Scar No!" moment was to be expected but I'm still surprised how long they lasted as a green compared to... everyone else (We won't talk about how long they lasted as yellow)

Grian: *never gets a minecart tnt trap right* Also Grian: *times a stalactite kill perfectly* what

Scar: gives grian cookies Grian: how did you get these? Scar: I made them. They're for your "SeCrET SoUlmaTe" Grian: ...I don't know what your talking about

I just adore how at 20:56, after Joel and Etho have been angry at Grian for so long, the three of them can just laugh about how Grian is babysitting Scar, just like in the first episode

this has to be grians biggest "ive won, but at what cost" moment in the entirety of this series

Ironically, Scar foreshadowed the episode in the first ten seconds; nearly dying twice, and showcasing the lethality of falling spikes when helmets aren't a thing

Grian: "nothing bad has ever happened to me while digging straight down" Meanwhile scar breaks block below him and proceeds to die

The Stalactite didn’t just pierced Ren it pierced Grians Heart. But the love for Big B never ends. So long.

Grain: tries to hide from reds Also grian: stares at the reds directly through an open window while the reds are heading towards the building he’s in

It’s never fully a life series without grian letting out either a “SCAR NO” or insane maniacal laughter.

25:01 "the ship burns, everything burns" had the same energy as "we burn, you burn with us"

Grian last episode: *vows not to harm Big B* Grian this episode: *accidentally frags Big B when skewering Ren*

You know this series is crazy when Scar’s MLG water bucket isn’t the most impressive thing in the series anymore

I think it’s hilarious that a single stalagmite worked better than any of the minecart tnt traps from the last 2 seasons

25:44 was probably one of the greatest and most horrific kill in the history of grian just perfect

When everyone stared at the ship burning and paying reapects to tango and jimmy with the music it was like the fighting stopped just for a moment and everyone agreed that it was the right thing to do to watch etho and joel suffer. Great episode!!

I love how Pearl immediately knew that the torture device was for her to use to torture her soulmate

Grian's double life season is the definition of "It's just a prank broo"

I can't believe the reds made a trap JUST for Scar by just leaving exposed TNT KNOWING Scar would steal it.

The thing that is so ironic about Ren and BigB being soulmates is that, Ren was the one that died every single time.

Fun fact: helmets are the only armor piece that protects against stalactites. Just though you might want to know that, for no reason...

Grian: walks straight towards the mob sounds Ah yes, using horror movie logic I see

Scar: Chaos Grian: Organized Chaos. The two together: hell if I know. oh no everyone is dead.

This episode had the most extreme foreshadowing than any piece of content ever

Grian: That sounds like a lot of zombies, why don't we dig towards the large amount of danger sounds? What could possibly go wrong?

Perfectly balanced, dropping a stalactite on scar to start, him casually mentioning bb being ur secret soulmate, Grian kiilling bb at the end...... A tragic lovestory :' )

Idea: "Shrink life Uses third life system (or last life system, either works), but map starts extremely large, then shrinks each time that somebody dies. As the series progresses, the map gets smaller and smaller as people die, meaning people encounter each other more, leading to exponentially more chaos toward the end of the series, as resources continue to deplete due to the shrinking of the map. This would also allow for people to have more opportunities to get lots of resources at the beginning of the game (to make getting good gear easier), and for extra conflict to occur with whoever controls the center of the map, as they would have an advantage at the end of the game.

22:19 Hearing the lone horn just reminded of the beginning of the series, where you could blow a horn and a hundred others would respond.

Grian's last Hermitcraft video: "I have never been hurt digging straight down and I'll keep digging down until I get hurt." Double Life: Scar digs straight down into a pit of zombies.

Next series: Timmy's Life. It's just like 3rd Life, but when Timmy dies, the entire server goes down with him. So rather than competing to see who can survive the longest, it's just everyone trying to protect Timmy.

"THAT'S THE BEST THING I'VE EVER DONE!! ... except maybe get married..." - Grian LOL 🤣🤣

I've been a big fan since the barge times, and recently become hearing impaired, I've found subtitles very helpful for watching content on youtube, but the effort put into the subtilties on this video made my experience amazing. Going from auto generated subtitles to color coordinated, labeled subtitles is night and day and I am so grateful for it, I thank you for the quality of your work, in all it's aspects.

I like how Etho is basically just, in awe at all the big plays that have happened. Scar's clutch bucket, and now the Grianite.

Grian in every series: wait how do I redstone properly why isn't this working Grian in double life: pointy rock :D

I just realized that this is the second time Grian has named an episode “Uh Oh” in this series. I do suppose it works because he gets down to red in both episodes, but it’s still strange.

7:31 This moment is so intimidating LOL Grian cowering and when he zooms in to Etho and Joel, they're just standing there... *menacingly* Those two are truly the most intimidating power duo of the server LOL I've said it before and I'll say it again

This is such a good example of Chekov's Gun. You had the set up at the beginning of the video, finding out how deadly Dripstone is, then in the climax, it all paid off when you used it.

Ah, yes. “See, this is why we need her, Scar. This is why we need her, she’s crazy. We need a crazy lady.” and of course, “Everyone wants us dead.”

2:18 I don't know how only people who make double life animatics only noticed this just listen to SCAR's line in this time

I kinda felt bad for Ren when he died but seeing chat at 27:58 I’m so glad he was such a good sport about it

If you think Grian and Scar losing two lives is bad, then you forgot that Joel(smallishbeans) lost four lives in last life in one session.

When the people who has the worst soulmate relationship are the last yellows, and the others who have pretty good relationship with their soulmates are red, then does that mean bad relationship is the way to survive?

Grian killing Ren is like a Shakespearean tale about the dangers of jealousy or smth I can't stop laughing

I love how Scar is so sweet, befriending animals and always being so polite, but then anything he does that's mean or daring is so unexpected.

Grian, literally last Hermitcraft episode: "I will keep digging straight down until it kills me" Scar: digs straight down and kills Grian

“Scar we need to have another funeral” always gets me no matter who’s perspective I watch

Funny how the last two times in the series, everyone tried their upmost to survive, but as soon as someone dies along with you, people almost and not almost kill themself all the time.

Random thought but what if the next series is called “Half life” where throughout the series you start with 20 hearts on green,15 on yellow and 10 on red, throughout the series/ the more damage you take your health slowly decays to half of the original value

“Secret soulmates” *Murders him with a rock* “Still secret soulmates”

"I don't see anyone, I think we're ok." Elsewhere: "Is that Grian in the window of that tower? Get him!"

the fact that the episode started with a stalactite and ended with a stalactite is the best thing I have ever seen

After Grian said he and BigB were still secret soulmates, I almost expected the episode to end with Grian jumping off a cliff in solidarity, killing himself and Scar in the last seconds of the session.

Grian: “Pearl, you almost got killed by Australia” Me: “Add that to the list of things that can kill you in Australia; your internet.”

If I had a nickel for every time Grian killed BigB just because he was affiliated to RenDog I would have 2 nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

15:45 This is why you DONT DIG TOWARDS OMINOUS SOUNDS Them two brain cells at its finest😂

I love how immediately apologetic Grian is about almost killing them with the dripstone. A little foreshadowing for what happens later on! xD

The timing on the Dripstone was about as chobblesome as chobblesome can get.. that was the greatest thing I’ve ever seen

That dripstone kill was straight up a Chekhov's Gun moment. He nearly killed Scar in the beginning with it and it came full circle by the end.

In the next season of the "life series" you should have a designated graveyard at spawn. Everyone makes thier own gravestone at the beginning with a book and someone is elected "The Book Keeper" That players sole job is to note in everyones books when they die. So if Pearl got blown up by Tango. Even accidently. The Book Keeper has to write the death message in pearls book. Then the victor has to go to the graveyard once everyone is dead and reflect on thier actions that lead to this point. If nothing more than some story to this cool series.

Grian: 'but I was so caught up in the euphoria of my dripstone trap working, that for a moment I lived in a world where I didn't just kill BigB' Edit: 25:30 for that sick timing

It was such great forshadowing at the begining when scar almost died to the dripstone for the kill at the end. Grian must have realized how powerfull it was when he took like 6 hearts from one dripstone.

“Drip stone even from like, three blocks away nearly killed us,” The ultimate foreshadow

This series is crazy. I have never seen Ethoslab and tango stun silence before. I guess it just goes to show you that everyone may have a hidden Minecraft pro inside them even scar.

"Two can keep a secret if one of them is dead" - this just popped in my head in the end

my heart literally stopped when i heard scar say the cookies were "for your secret soulmate" i was not expecting that

If they weren't S-tier before then by now, with Scar's clutch mlg water bucket drop and Grian's stalactite kill.....WOW no one can deny this!

Man, I saw that trap for yellow Scar clear as day. They knew he'd come for a random pile of TNT, and detonate it when he got close.

Love that although Scar was the one who died it was pretty much Grian who got them to red - digging TOWARDS the zombie sounds and just going Oh, OK when Scar bounds off to an obvious trap! Epic episode Grian. Love you two.

It's always interesting to see what parts each creator cuts out from the various pairs. If you guys usually only watch Grian I would definitely recommend watching Scar as well this week. There's bit of convo missing which gives greater context (like why exactly they went to the zombies, whose the better Sand dealer etc) and for those curious about Scar knowing about Big B there's a couple other things Scar does for Grian that obviously Grian can't show because he wasn't there but it's worth it from Scars POV. Scar's known about Big B for awhile now btw and has a mini alliance with Pearl (I think they still have it) on the basis of being rejected and that might have been one of the reasons she let them stay in the tower. It's why they so were so happy to be doing the cactus stuff.

i love how every season pearl just pushes her luck until it kills her, she's nothing if not consistent (and really funny)

let's be real, that zombie pit death was totally on Grian for hearing "sounds of death" and deciding to go closer, with Scar in tow, on the run lmao but also seeing scar completely fall for Etho's and Joel's silly TNT pile from afar was so funny THAT SCREAM WHEN IT WORKED OH MY GOD dripstone underrated

"I made them, they're for your secret soulmate" ScAaarrrr 😭😭😭😭

Etho: "I got an army" Grian: "and we have a Pearl"

Honestly my favorite moment is just Scott coming in and going "ARE YOU HARBORING REFUGEES PEARL?" I have no clue why it made me laugh as much as it did but oml

One of my favourite things about this series is when somebody intentionally hurts themselves to get back at their partner XD

Grain: Drops dripstone on Ren, killing him and BigB Martin two seconds later: Would now be a good time to mention...

That kill on ren and big b was actually so impressive hearing the screams from different povs was actually so funny 😭

18:36 this from Grian's POV is literally the scariest death yet imo. He saw the tnt activating and he couldn't even warn Scar, Scar literally didn't know what hit him

"I didn't mean to destroy you. I mean... I MEANT to destroy you... but I didn't think it would really work." ~Megamind

Grians ecstatic screams everytime he kills someone is hilarious.

I love how they went over to have a wake for Tango and Tim, and ended up holding a viking funeral for the relation-ship on the side

This episode/session is going to spawn so many animated clips. In Grians episode alone we have; -Grian almost killing Scar with dripstone -Pearl and Scar almost killing Scott and Grian with Cactus damage. -The Saluting to the RelationShip as it Burns down during the funeral -Scar and Grians death by Zombies -Scar and Grians death by TnT -Big B and Rens death The list can go on if we even count in everyone else's perspectives! This session was amazing.

This series progressed a lot quicker than I expected, it's the first of the Life series I've watched and I had no idea there would be so many reds and yellows by only episode 5

Idea for next season: "False Life", people are given between 2-6 lives, but also get to CHOOSE how many lives it displays they have. This way, people with fewer lives can pretend they have more to seem more powerful, and people with more can pretend to have less as to seem less threatening. You can trade lives. Once someone that chooses to seem to have less lives reaches 1 life, they will have 1 life until they actually die. And when people who choose to seem to have more lives reach 0 actual lives, they die. Another idea: Once someone dies, they can choose one other player with at least 2 lives and plead with them for 5 minutes about why they should give them one of their lives. Yet another idea: Make lives craftable with 4 diamonds, 2 gold ingots, 2 iron ingots, and 1 golden apple

My idea for next season: "Hidden Life" Everyone starts off with a range of 2-4 Lives, except for one who starts on 1. The twist is that everyone's lives are completely hidden from everyone else and they cannot be disclosed. This will likely cause a lot of drama as people are finished off sooner than expected, as well as likely to have people fake the red status to give themselves more leverage.

Grian's signature quote, "SCAR NO!!!"

my favourite part is how grian killed ren who he was jealous of for ages because ren was bigb's soulmate so he really went "if I can't have him... no one can"

I really hope I'm not the only one who actually cried at the end during big B's funeral, that speech touched me 😭❤️

I will say this last life double life shenanigans have been the best series next to hermit craft I've ever watched. Every episode is packed with moments that literally leave my mouth open. Jaw dropped on my desk. I seriously cannot begin to describe how much I enjoy this series. I hope it has a long life, because I don't know what else in the world there would be to watch other than hermitcraft. This is it, the pinnacle of minecraft content imo. Having good unscripted fun.

Grian in the last few series: WHY DIDNT THE TRAP GO OFF?! WHY IS THE REDSTONE NOT WORKING! Grian in Double Life: Hehe spiky rock and sticky hook go brrr.

i LOVE that scar just instantly resorts to 'imma burn it' anytime anything goes wrong XD

28:26 now scar lost an eye too

"dripstone, even from like 3 blocks nearly killed us" _foreshadowing_

Grian: hears like 1000 zombies Also grian: LETS EXPLORE IT

The scared grian at the start was the most un-british grian ever

There’s a reason it’s called SOUL mates… Because even from beyond the grave, your love for each other still lives on and ties you together…. RIP Big B….
