But that means the plants already escaped the area and therefore made the whole thing pointless.

I think that was her point

That would be an incredibly happy ending because the wretched person you'd want to die actually dies instead of being the sole stupid/evil survivor.

​@teache1210 exactly if they've spread that far already wouldn't the locals know since they were clearly aware the temple already

They didn't build a fence cause they actually wanted to trap/kill people from time to time in the name of greater good

lmfao same I had to pause it

Random patient: I have a splinter in my thumb Jeff: (grabs hacksaw) bring him here I'll fix it

He has big ‘I could totally land an airplane’ energy in the book. Just thinks he knows best when he’s actually green in even own field of work. It seriously fucks them constantly.

I mean, they have no way to fix the infection. No antibiotocs. The guy is dehydrated and starving so have no energy to keep up any level of immune responce. All they have is a bottle of alcohol, and a knife

I mean. To be fair hes got the right idea. Look at those wounds. Most of all kinds of tissue other than bone are gone. There's nothing to save. Even in a modern level 1 this would only be treated with bilat AKAs. with significant wound debridement, and left with a wound vac in place since primary closure would likely not be an option initially. Of course he should have known that he's not a surgeon and without a proper hospital attempting that procedure is likely to kill him faster while still doing absolutely nothing about the infection. So not improving quality of life or outcome. He was always going to die.

@@DDIAZ-we4dz I’m gonna go ahead and disagree here. I’ve seen ex-fixes correct much worse. But maybe you’re talking about the plants, but in any case with no X-rays can’t be definitive.

reminds me of the story of 1500+ sheep jumping off a cliff, ofc the first ones that jumped just died but the ones that went after lived cause of all the cushioning. People and sheep mentality ya know 🤷‍♂. People itching for a story to tell only to be the ones told in said story.

@@streamofthesky Yep pretty much

That is just the Darwin award doing it's thing. Some people are just determined to die in a stupid and avoidable way.

It's truly amazing how some people just crave a worthless death.

@@gs4011The body chasm on Mount Everest comes to mind. Image freezing to death in a corpse lined pit just because you wanted to satisfy your ego. Nobody, not even your other bored rich friends, gives a shit about you summiting a damn mountain. It’s been done a thousand times already.

Easy Peezy

WHAT would yew dew

Pro tip: Don’t be stupid tourist

@@MrDoverfield Pro tio: dont have an amy

What's the book called

Too stupid to attempt burning the plants though

@@UmbraMan1 I like to think that they tried, but with how deep the cave system is the fire never goes deep enough to get it all. And if the plant is smart enough to mimic people it could be smart enough to cover the well so no oxygen gets in and the fire is smothered.

In the book I believe it also reviled that the plant actually covers signs as well so putting up warning signs didn't work in the past.

​@joshhorn9164 even then there's a thing called "Gasoline" and hell fire bombs that can be dropped down into the temple. This movie is so bad xD characters are utterly stupid and not going to ask the locals about anything suspicious and such before even going there.

IF she goes to the hospital immediately she MIGHT be salvaged, but as dumb as she is I seriously doubt it. Knowing her temperament, she'd probably head directly for a cheeseburger and some strange...thereby spreading the vinerus everywhere.

About the boy. If I knew that the Mayans are scared of the plant, I'd be cattapulting vines out from the ruin.

in the book she dies first. And she didn't guide the shot or throw the plant at any boy. Nothing similar happened.

@@biljam972 i thought she was pulled into the jungle at the end of the book by the vines

@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic no, that was Stacy. Amy was killed first, I think along with Mathias. Whines chocked her to death.

🤤

Here! We have to listen to Papa Roanoke: stay strapped or get clapped.

Yep 😂

Why yes

Yes

Amy's the worst!

​@@SuperSwordman1Amy from WhatCulture Horror?

​@@SuperSwordman1the absolute worst, basically an anglerfish with legs

An anglerfish with legs that triggers prion disease

Amy hate 4 life

Bingo! I believe you hit the nail right on the head. There is a theory that the plants are the physical embodiment of a Mayan deity, who'll destroy the world unless it is provided with fresh sacrifices from time to time. That's why there are no boundary walls or signs. The villagers have intentionally spread word about the ruins, so that daredevils visit the place and sate the old God's hunger. They could sacrifice their own people, but why bother, if outsiders voluntarily step in to do it for them? This is a bit like the Cabin in the Woods remake. Sacrifice a few to save the rest of the world!

Nah

That makes a lot of sense. The animal (plant I guess) wouldn't leave the area if it always has some annual source of prey. Makes sense.

Yeah, that was my theory too.

Yeah

That’s a good point. I wonder if there’s any way to make weed killer edible

That's a lot to gamble on a probably.

They'd all be murked if that was the case, just like in the cabin

It would be a stretch. But I would hope that it was possible.

The plant might as well be an alien you don't know anything about it why risk the planet to save a couple of people and the locals aren't stupid who knows how many generations have known about the plant maybe it's behind why so many pyramids and temples are abandoned

Same

Those were good but the comedy trade off nowhere near worth it. This one is great because he has the comedy plus the original over strategizing that you guys care so much about

Now I need to watch these lol

I think she made it back to civilization, then died. What makes it scarier is that the plant lay dormant in her body until she was buried so that it was able to grow from there grave

@@onomstarr No way the plant would survive if she was embalmed.

@@swimmingmide Not everyone gets embalmed though.

@@scarletamazon3455 The vast majority do, especially if you are shipping a body any significant distance. Like to a differnt country.

@@swimmingmide Found the American lol

Ngl I bet the Mayans would like the threat being erraticated

@@jkbutterfly3142 Actually. no. They worship it as the living embodiment of an old God.

Napalm

@@krishanubanerjee6955Fine, they go too

Really? What did they change

@B.O.Xproject a lot of the change was just things happening to different characters. Like Eric was the one carving himself up, not Sarah. Etc.

@@slam5798 ah interesting Now I kinda wanna look into it

@B.O.Xproject the book is really good and a lot more graphic in some ways. I highly recommend it.

​@@slam5798 Is the book also called he ruin?

She really is the absolute worst!!! 😂

Get. Out. 😂😂😂😂😂

You make me feel very old

😂😂I only clicked on this video because the pyramid did remind me of movie scene I saw when I was younger

​@ah_dan6572 If the plants cover the signs up from the temple, how are they not free yet?

@@Usher2660 How big would have been or what the natives did during the Mayan period the plant? Like the temple looking newer and people maintain the temple. Then more POV's on the present locals on the know-how of the plant and more lore.

Same me too.

Good idea! Im sure these backwoods hillbillies living in the middle of the mexican jungle can just go to "flamethrowers-R-us" and pick one up!

As far as i recall, the plants have waay too much reach for me to be confortable with a flamethrower, i'd say molotov cocktails are a bit more safe, if not having the army involved

@@SnlDrako huh, yeah sounds like really good range, more than enough to torch it from the other side of the quarentine zone, at least 10 m looks enough to safely do it

If you start out that way, the plant could release spores. First, use corrosive chemicals to burn the plants away, then bombard the temple with radiation to eliminate the spores.

@@SnlDrako Given the sheer number, I'd chalk it up to plot holes.

I got the movie 8 years ago. Never new there was a book.

​@@morgancrow6337 doesn't matter. Take the risk. Try to survive.

Im pretty sure that may have already been tried. And besides, burning EVERY BIT of those vines to ash would be a very difficult if not impossible feat to accomplish without getting too close to them.

As far as i recall, they did try it, but the vines are somewhat resistant to it, and smarter than they look, the best they could do was to have an area with coarse dirt so it doesn't spread and the vines slowly starve, only slowed down by tourists meddling in

@@mistasofly Flame throwers have plenty of reach

@@montypython5521 Where were they gonna get a flamethrower? And besides, not even a flamethrower would have enough fuel to burn EVERY bit of those in and around the pyramid.

They don't burn it probably for the same reason you're not supposed to burn poison ivy

Fire Is not always a good solution because many plants have developed some kinda panic preservation mechanism to ensure species survival and due to plants being filled with water fire doesn't work as fast as you want it to causing the problem to become worse.

Some plants use fire to spread.... still there are plenty of alternatives im surprised they didn't call th US im pretty sure we have some liters of Agent Orange in storage somewhere

@@Fireheart310 And there's no way in hell that you could burn it all without getting infected. It goes all the way inside the temple. So is it even worth the risk to get that close when you have a method that can at least keep it contained with minimal risk.

thats why nukes exist

@@thesovietkevin7275 For starters, exactly why the villagers don't tell the government about the temple. Either they'll be killed to keep it a secret so that it can be weaponized, or because the area will get nuked and they'll be killed. The other thing that has to be remembered is how this movie ended. All it takes is one idiot getting away spreading it to a new area to render the nuke pointless.

Doesn't seem that bad to me. If I'm missing and my family or friends call to check on me, it might be useful to have your location recorded in your voicemail.

Yea I don't like the change of the narrator

Agreed

Who changed narrator?

The Gerard Butler movie?

It's in Mexico aka North America

He had me a lil confused by that title at first glance

Never played Undertale. Is it the game with skull head guy with the music megalomania?

@@TheDarkLink7 Yeah that’s the one

*Hears evil plant laughing in the background*

@seanmckenzie9843 been meaning to play it. That and Mother.

Me too! It was so hopeless. I remember feeling very unnerved after finishing it

Yup and that's why We hate her.

I would love one of those videos where a dummy points to information in thought bubbles, with goofy, incredibly cheerful music. Like "how to prepare for being in a horror movie? 1. Is your phone charged? 2. Are you going down a dark alley alone? 3. Have you besmirched an old gypsy woman who cursed you? 4. Did an Alien monster just board your vessel?"

Me too!! There were other "how to beat" pages, but they havr mostly turned into recap videos.

Maybe because they've tried before and it just infects you like try burning poison ivy it's not going to be pleasant

And then some napalm after just to make sure.
