I will say that the cow tipping kids were the smartest horror movie intro characters I have ever seen. They didn't sit around to see what it was, they took off like smart people.

Farmer here, man you have no idea how nice it is to hear this stuff once in a while. It's a ruthless, thankless job so I really appreciate the thanks. And as far as the movie goes, no, we generally don't have any obligation to sell to anyone in particular, except maybe if you're part of a cooperative but even then as far as I know you can still sell elsewhere, it's just that they guarantee a sale if you go to them. Anyway, love your videos, and hi from France!

The idea of an invertebrate being able to just go "UwU I have a spine now" is both hilarious and scary at the same time

Two things I wanna address. Firstly, cow tipping isn't really a thing. Anyone who says that they've gone cow tipping is more than likely lying because there is a myth that cows sleep standing up when in actuality they lay down to sleep the same as any other animal. And secondly, thanks for showing us farmers some love Roanoke. I grew up a cattle farmer and it's nice to finally get a shout-out for what we did.

When Man throws Rock at darkness, Darkness throws terrestrial Anglerfish back.

That parasite would straight up die from alcohol poisoning if it tried to eat my dads liver.

“Instead of 300 cows you only need 150” Commercial beef farmers: 300 double sized cows means profit doubled!

On one hand, the idea of parasites big enough to have backbones scares me. On the other hand, the parasites in this movie look like giant, very angry blankets, and they make me grin whenever I see them in the video. Also you do make a good point about genetic modification having some unforeseen effects on other species, guess this is why extensive tests need to be done first.

Liver kings crying rn

"My lawyer won't let me finish that joke" had me cracking up! 😂

I love how you can hear the sheer joy Roanoke has every time he gets to say "Lock and load brides of christ" or "Get strapped or get clapped"

Funny story about biohazard stuff in the mail. Back when bovine spongiform encephalopathy was new one of my professors was working on creating a lab test for the prions to identify cows with BSE. Long story short they started a PR campaign to spread awareness to make farmers start testing cows for BSE, they made plushy cows with an anti BSE picture on it. And shipped it to an airport where it said BSE cows as the label. The entire airport got shutdown 😂. They brought in a hazmat team and opened the case to find plushies.

"other symptoms: Like crap yourself to death." That's a hell of a symptom Roanoke.

he has relapsed to angler fish hate, 3 videos without it and he has fallen again, we need an anonimus angler fish haters association

I confronted a Liver Eating Parasite once. I said G0ddamnlt parasite, whadda u want from me. The parasite looked at me and said, "I need about tree-fiddy." Well, it was about that time that I realized that this was no parasite, but was just Roanoke Gaming looking for donations to make more KZfaq videos.

That poor janitor man he probably had an hour left before he went home to his wife and kids. What a hero~

Man core memory unlocked, haven't seen this since the SyFy channel was the SciFi channel

I'm 95 percent of the way to making an angler fish with rabies.I think I'm being followed and watched but my research will continue

Pathologists do autopsies! Its funny to me because it's usually the one small part of our job that people associate with us. Could have also been a Diener (autopsy tech) or a PA. they often help with the eviscerations and cleanup. Also, thanks to you I finally looked up what Diener means and it comes from German Leichendiener which is literally Corpse Servant. Metal A. F.

Fighting against the detox Health nuts and telling us that we will die from incurable chlamydia This is why I love this channel so freaking much

I love this channel. Dude really dives in to the biology of the baddies in cool movies. I’ve thought about the same thing every time I watch a monster horror movie

I remember seeing this movie as a kid on SciFI channel when they actually showed really good horror movies. This gave me a paranoia on eating meat for like two weeks and got over it. It gives me a good laugh but the plot of the movie is unique compared to other movies

“I don’t want a tapeworm unless it’s beach season” Isn’t it basically always beach season on Mars? 😁

The Angler Fish bit always cracks me up 😂

Hey Roanoke. Idk if you will ever see this, but just wanted to say that i love your videos, and that you have inspired me to look more into the field of Biology as a possible carrier. You are a great teacher of Biology and quite funny as well. Hope nothing but the best for ya :)

>Imagine getting blueballed then a baby monster jumps out of your stomach. 🤣

22:22 - "That's NOT what you do! You're gonna end up Baldwin-ing someone!" Jesus Christ. I couldn't stop laughing. I actually almost cried.

Hey Roanoke have you ever thought of talking about the monster from the movie Leviathan? It talks about some people going to the ocean trench and fighting a monster similar to John Carpenter's the Thing! The monster kinda looks like a mix of an angler fish, barracuda, and a human! There's also another horror movie that's something similar to the Thing, it's called harbinger down.

Just got off work, perfect video to relax after a stressfull day, thanks roanoke!

Brother! I knew I had a reason I kept my subscription up for your channel! Not only are you hilarious, you are also properly accurate and interesting to watch. Thank you for FINALLY saying the truth about "detox" teas and such, they are a damn scam!

"You will probably care more about your kid than your spouse" That's a 50/50 coin flip my friend and I can say I did not win that coin flip.

"There is inherent danger in messing with herbivores" spoken like a seasoned Ark veteran.

Is it wierd that i sort of treat this channel like a tv series but before reruns? Like, i have no idea if these videos are going to get taken down and edited, so i feel compelled to watch them as soon as i can

"Ill never eat bugs" - said by roanoke as he goes head first into a bucket of shrimp and crab legs

Always remember, you can only shock asystole *flat line * in movies. In real life, it'll be a real bummer. Unless you really hate the patient, the hospital, and everyone in the room.

Roanoke, the new vet Eli is played by Vincent Ventresca, who also played a convict/test experiment on the show, Invisible Man, who has an experimental gland surgically implanted in this brain which secretes a hormone that turns the host invisible. You should do a review on the show.

I'd love to see you do a video on the Mimics from Edge of Tomorrow. Your take on their alien biology would be fascinating.

Ok.. Since you mentioned it.. I almost died from diverticulitis. I was very lucky stuff did not end up outside of my intestine in the first place especially with how large of an area that was ripped open.. I had been dealing with the pain for over a week when I finally went in.. I was barely able to move but I did move around.. At first I was taken to the doctors office.. And the lady at the reception desk immediately yelled at my brother ( who was my legal guardian ) to take me to the hospital. I did not even make it into the building because she could see me slowly trying to move to the door. ( The receptionist had a good view of the entrance and the entrance had a glass area all around so you could see in-out of the front area. When I got to the hospital, I walked in, and it took some time before I was seen.. A bit before I was seen though my brother's friend who took us there asked for a wheel chair for me because he was worried about how hard it was for me to move. ( Keep in mind. I had been, according to other people that seen me and have told me.. Looked like a walking corpse.. They said I looked like someone who was dead skin wise.. Something that was.. Yea not fun. ) It took some time before I was scanned and given medication to help with the pain.. But yea.. Some of the worst pain I have ever felt. The first surgery caused me to lose several feet of intestine, a small portion of my stomach, a small portion of my liver, and something else that I can not remember right now.. I ended up having a second surgery to take back out the stoma that I had to live with for about a year. During said second surgery they took care of a strangulated hernia that might or might not have been there beforehand. ( Something that also had some rot to it but it was not bad enough for another stoma requirement thankfully. ) I have since had several hernias as the parasite that did the damage to my body has weakened a LOT of things.. My intestine for example is as of a 80 year old's intestine.. and this was back in 2011.. So yea.. Parasites can be nasty especially if they go unchecked.. The parasites I had was finally dead/gone by said point but it did a lot of damage to my system... ( They never found out or at least never told me what kind of parasite I had. )

I learn a lot of unexpected things from this channel while getting a good laugh. Whatever you're going through, please know you're making life bright and funny for someone else out there with love for science as much as fiction.

Unrelated to the video but those weird lines at the top right of the video whenever it’s a scene from the movie made me think I had broke my phone and I almost had a heart attack 😋

18:06 I'm glad to see Angler Fish is still enemy #1 😂

0:35 I was eating and you almost made me choke on my food, bravo.

14:10- losing my mind at the short detox rant because this is exactly what my dad says every time he hears about/sees detoxing. He gets so pressed about it

Anglerfish Facts! In most species, a wide mouth extends all around the anterior circumference of the head, and bands of inwardly inclined teeth line both jaws. The teeth can be depressed so as to offer no impediment to an object gliding towards the stomach, but prevent its escape from the mouth.[25] The anglerfish is able to distend both its jaw and its stomach, since its bones are thin and flexible, to enormous size, allowing it to swallow prey up to twice as large as its entire body.

With your confusion with the fertilizer truck, generally for plotlines if you tell the audience a plan you have to have something go wrong. If you don’t tell the audience the plan, you can do whatever you want.

Hey Roanoke. I hope you see this comment and can answer this question in your next video. Do you consider Finding Nemo a horror movie since there is that one scene with the Anglerfish chasing Dory and Marlin?

A quick explanation to why farmers would be using feed that's bad for their cows. This system they have of "we give you feed, you sell us back the cows" is actually incredibly common in farming both in flora and fauna farming. It sounds like a good deal but the problem is exclusivity. During an amount of time in a contract you MUST get feed from them and you MUST sell to them. This is actually a bigger problem in plant farming because you can be in violation of a contract you don't even know about because your neighbor has a contract and because a few seeds ended up on your property (which happens) your whole farm is at risk because you just broke trademark law and now you have a choice. Sign the contract yourself or give up the farm to someone who will

Oh man, it's quite a blast from the past watching you cover this movie. I was watching your episode on the thaw a while back and the parasite theme of it reminds me of an obscure b grade horror movie i saw a long time ago that was also about parasites. I forgot the name of the movie and i could only vaguely recall some of the details of the movie but i remember it had giant parasites that ruptured out of animals. Flash forward to today and as i was watching the video i can't help but feel the plot evoking some sense of familiarity until i realized this movie is _that_ movie i saw way back in the past. I never thought some day you were going to literally make a video about this old memory of mine but i'm pleasantly suprised. Thanks for the video and the nostalgia my man, your content has been one of the few sources of joy i have on this site 👍

Nothing like a liver eating parasite to start off my Saturday 😅

please do a video on vampyr game on how the pure vampires blood becomes weaker when infecting more people they turn into Skals. also how skals feeding ways completely changing to where they can feed of peoples flesh instead of the purer vampires can only drink blood. it would also be interesting to know how there are different branches of the vampire blood like how one branch makes people look like werewolfs

I work for a meat department and we have certain tags for each peice of meat. Also we always wash hands when moving from different meats like beef and chicken.

I've seen some of the movies you cover but not all of them... this falls into the latter category. I really enjoy the depth of your channel, you always inject so much humour and enthusiasm. I follow a couple of other content creators who add other dimensions to characters and creatures using real-world biology and psychology. Although everyone following you will appreciate movies, adding that extra depth allows people to appreciate them so much more. Your explanations are also very accessible.

Awesome. I've been binging Roanoke's videos for 3 days killing time, hoping that he would release a new one. Sweet.

"UwU I have a spine now" Is today's quote of the day. lol

The genetic manipulation of cows reminds me of the movie Isolation (2005), which deals with unexpected deadly side effects of DNA experiments on cows. Might make for a good review down the line.

Roanoke’s limitless hatred for angler fish is hilarious to me because they’re one of my favorite deep sea animals. It’s the dolphins that freak me out. Would much rather hang out with an angler fish than a pod of bored orcas.

There's a webcomic called "freefall" set on a colony world in the process of being terraformed (with a lot of realistic science applied to the setting) one of the main characters is a vet, but as there are very few animals on the planet his job involves sending the planet with microbes and parasites for the very reason stated in the beginning of the video. At one point her quips he's single because it's hard to date when you tell people you have tapeworms (referring to his lab not his body)

Something tells me that Roanoke is a 2A kinda guy... Love it, keep up the good work!

We really need a Roanoke bingo card: "Stay strapped or get clapped", "Humanity number one, baby", "Concern about antibiotics", "Rabies", "Prions" and as a bonus, bragging about his car.

Holy heck, I ain’t never been this early for Roanoke before. Today’s gonna be a good day.

The dreaded liver eating parasite was my nickname in highschool

Hey, farmer here, we watch. Keep up the good stuff brother.

“It comes at night” is a great movie for this channel

Fun fact you cant tip a cow. Its like trying to tip a car.

I love this channel so much! I was wondering though if there was a specific place that we can ask for movies to be covered. I've been trying to get more people to watch a movie called Indigenous and their "chupacabra". The creature effects are so good for a lower budget movie.

Halfway through a nightmare month of work, doing 6 10s til February. Lookin forward to spending part of my day off listening to the man himself while I cook. Thanks much Roanoke, wishing you good luck and reliable machinery

>AN organ that detoxes your body Brother you've got four: a liver, two kidneys, and a spleen all dedicated to filtering the crap out of your blood

Yeah as a person from montana, they do be like that. Living the fear of anyone not from the state. Its a big reason why we are basically 10 years behind everything.

I doubt you’ll see this but man… you’re the best. You brought back my wanting to go into the med field and to med school. Not to mention, without these videos I doubt I’d still have the wanting to learn more and more. You make learning fun. Also, I partially agree on detox stuff. Physically it doesn’t do much but make you slightly dehydrated which help make you more hydrated making you actually detox but it does help in a psychiatric sense… stuff is weird and people are dumb lol

at 27:33 . look the cow in the back has a cactus stuck on it's belly . look at the front cow's right ear and then move your eyes a bit towards the right.

Did u say.. "kill.. the clowns.. from.. outer space?" Lol that's just awesome

If it was just the science dissection, I probably wouldn't stick around, but it's the humor and frank way of putting things in combination with the science that makes me stick around. I'm not gonna lie, usually the science is beyond me and I have hard time grasping what it actually means, but you manage to explain it in terms that make sense to me, even if I don't actually know what it means. The channel fascinated and entertains me through your delivery as much as the actual content, so for whatever it's worth, I'm here for it.

Deep rising or bust! Still waiting on my parasitic nematodes to get a video!

I had to pause the video and come down to the comments to say Roanoke is on point with his jokes. Always wear a rain jacket, and a toothpick in a meth lab. That shit got me good.

Have you heard of a game called Parasite Eve? It's about mitochondria mutating and turning people into monsters. Or spontaneously combusting them.

Poor Roanoke man, he seems to be having a very specific issue; let's all of us help him through it! Whatever it may be

Ladies and gentlemen I think I speak for everyone when I say yeah parasites suck but like Dr Roanoke said sadly we can't live without them which again suck.😂

What i love the most about this video is how you took time to explain how the concept of the movie ties to real life with the whole parasite explanation. Loved it!

Hey, strange question and you’ll likely not respond but is the reason you focus on plagues and parasites because you’re specialized in that field? Like if I made a request that you do a series of deep dives into the lore and biology of monsters from the monster hunter series would it be something you’d consider doing? It’s not about plagues or parasites though (although there’s instances of illnesses that show up from time to time in the games for monsters), monsters are entirely products of their environment and develop traits specific to their functions. What I’m asking is, would you be interested in making videos that explore a monster and discuss its traits and habits (and what environmental influences could have been at play in how they evolved into what they are). There’s ALOT of monsters (equals alot of videos lol) and all have incredibly unique and diverse designs and traits.

Any ETA for a video on the Quarians from Mass Effect?

Any chance we'd get a scientific analysis on the Energy mutants from sunset overdrive? Long shot I know haha

Vet here, not really odd to not be able to identify worms on sight, you got to do a Baermann's test for that. The more common way we ID fecal parasites is to look at the ova (eggs), the ova are fairly unique to each species.

Now I'm afraid my IBD I picked up in the military is actually a parasite. Damn it. New fear unlocked.

If I had a hunch, I'd say you're going through the process of a divorce? Hope you're okay man. Your videos are great fun to listen to 😅

"Cows will wreck you if they dont know you" 😂

Thank you for making every one of your videos both educational, AND entertaiing.

All of that conversation about stacked cows, and not one mention of the Belgian Blue. They have a similar genetic trait to Ronnie Coleman, where they have roughly double the muscle density of the average bovine.

Always nice to see one of these videos and hear Papa Roanoke say this one could be more possible than you'd think...

This is one of those movies from my childhood where I’d sit down and watch it on ScyFy one Saturday night with my dad. Only ever saw it once, during the time ScyFy had a new movie every Saturday night, but it’s one of those weird core memories we all have as kids where, for some reason, you vaguely remember something, but not enough to explain it well enough to find it again. It wasn’t even special to me, just one of those things you just remember for some reason. I never thought I’d learn the name of this random movie whose scenes occasionally invade my thoughts. It’s a little surreal to be honest. Good video as always, and thank you for helping cross out one of those things that kept me frustrated as I tried to remember the name.

Always love hearing the TF2 soundtrack being used, keep up the good work Papa R

"Just identify it you nerd!" had me in stitches.

when i was a kid i had a massive fear of a parasite eating my brain. like every time my head hurt a bit i thought some parasite was eating my brain.

Bro Roanoke be popping off today: „he gone Baldwin someone“ 😂😂😂😂

I wasn't ready for that Omni-man's but(t) 😂😂

Fun Fact! We have cows that have extra muscles, they have the Double-Muscle gene, and the breed is called Belgium Blues. Problem is: they can't give birth naturally, and the meat tastes bad and is expensive because you have to factor the cost of a c-section birth into the final meat-cost.

Astrology person here. Regarding 24:08, a planetary retrograde is when a planet seems to be moving backwards in the sky from our perspective here on Earth. What the planet rules be thrown out of balance. The planet Mercury rules communication, travel, automobiles, shipping, and mail. Mercury also tends to go retrograde three or four times a year.

God the Omni man in the first 40 seconds was the funniest thing I’ve seen all day, was not prepared for it at all

The person who runs the hospital morge can be called a pathologist, mortician, or a medical examiner/ physician. Depending on who you ask.

I straight up had a double take when you said Temu version of Dean Winchester. I can't believe I'm getting exposed as a Supernatural fan this way especially at the comment of him throwing away confidential files. He won't throw it away, he'd be stealing it
