Incredible shot choices

​@@philcollinslover56705I agree with you.

Fungi are kind of an odd one out of all the living things. Prior to 1960, it was generally thought they're just plants, but it took some digging deeper to realize they don't actually fit to plant category and aren't like corals (which are classified as animals).

Candida are doing this…

​​​​@@OniLeafNinNot exactly. Becoming more pathogenic, yes, but candida cannot and will never be able to turn you into a zombie. Cordyceps however, were it to suddenly jump to mammals, potentially could do something analogous. Not sure if it'd present like in this series, but it would not be good. I'm thinking more along the lines of rabies, you wouldn't be functional enough past a certain point for any deliberate action like chasing someone down. That is, unless some jackass scientists in a sketchy government lab were able to decode _exactly_ how Cordyceps does what it does, correlate that with specific genes, and then deliberately do something really... Stupid

He kinda forgot to talk about how temperature isn't the only thing preventing cordyceps from infecting humans like it infects insects. It took millions of years of co-evolution for cordyceps to infect insects, and it only works because they don't have antibodies in their immune systems. Humans are much more complex organisms, and the human immune system would absolutely dunk on any attempt at anything resembling a cordyceps infection. In fact, cordyceps has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine for its wide array of health benefits, which have also been documented in scientific studies, so consuming cordyceps is actually good for you.

@@OniLeafNin I grow Candida for a living and I always alcohol my hands even when I've been wearing gloves.

It plays on common facts in reality and even thou it omits another crucial fact ( human immunity system ) it starts the show with a bang

Helps that humanity, globally, is coming off a real pandemic. Of the virus variety thankfully, I guess?

@@Puti880415 i think people can overlook that fact because we can assumed that if the fungi know how to infect human bodies it probably know how to avoid or defeat human immune system, like HIV.

@@tarrinpun3798 That is a correct assumption, not to mention fungi produce penicilium which is form of antibiotics. So therefore it all clicks together that fungus can produce some sort of immunity suppresant

It's complete simplicity makes it terrifying

I'd kill just to see some more prelude into the apocalypse for it happens. Like actually getting police reports from Indonesia where the first infected was sighted instead of just analyzing its corpse. It was still pretty cool nonetheless.

But zombies.... Seriouy I believe that is the direction they are taking. Its more of a drama then a zombi outbreak. Kind of like later seasons of the Walking Dead but with a higher budget. Obviously the relationship between the two main characters will be the shows primary focus with zombies going "Rawr arggg" in the background.

​@@franksegui4478🤓☝️Ermm.. actually the term for those "zombies" are infected

Oh great, if this stays more a character drama than about the zombies, that means 100% of zombie films and TV shows relegate the zombies to some background threat, rather than the cause of the apocalypse.

@@franksegui4478have you played the games… because zombies were ALWAYS the background… tlou2 is probably going to upset you if you’re in it for the infected

Ohh shit i forgot he was in Spartacus sand and blood fuck that show was bomb as hell R.I.P Andy Whitfield dude was amazing so sad to see him leave is at such a young age

He takes the attention of the audience well

I did not realize until right now that that's Johnathan from The Mummy movies.

I can never forget his role in Spartacus. He made Batiatus the best character in the show.

he was also in agents of shield

Because at that point, it is an impossibility. It'd be like an astronomy professor feeling anxiety and panic over the powers of the universe. Like, one of the things that could happen is that a cosmic laser hits Earth, and wipes us out. No warning. No chance to take cover, no chance of survival. Extinction in the blink of an eye for those lucky, while a massive heat up and the Earth blowing up for those who managed to survive the initial hit. The odds of us being hit by a laser are astronomically low. But it's never zero. Here, the doctor knows what fungus can do, but only if the odds hit it to reach that state. There was no fungi at that point in time that was able to do what he said would happen, until the astronomical odds hit that number, and cordyceps did. He was calm, because, while he was talking about it, it was essentially not going to happen. Not in the world he was living in at that time.

Yes, the way the entire crowd goes silent and motionless all at once, frozen in the horror of what they're hearing is itself a mirror to the fungi controlling all of humanity. This series opening is as unforgettable as the opening to HBO's The Newsroom. m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mK-gfsmolp2RqY0.html

Kind of reminded me of the, "the people it kills, get up and kill" scene from 'Dawn of the Dead'.

the host face reaction from when the scientist started talking about climate change until the end was soo good, so you can see the uneasiness and fear creeps into him

And the scariest part is: it's a real possibility

seriously...this is not scary. and the crowd reaction comes off way to forced and predictable, like the whole scene was actually playing out predictably.

The way he said it sounded like someone who’s really thought about this, and has since made peace with the fact there is nothing that can be done if it happens.

@@alexman378 Indeed, he’s come to terms with the fact, as hard to accept as it was.

There's at least one thing that can be done tough: isolation. It's not like TWD where everyone in the planet is already infected regardless of what they do. You need to be in the vicinity of the fungus to get it, and don't let modern globalization fool you: planet Earth is f*cking HUGE. There are lots of places where people could seclude themselves and live relatively normal lifes. Hell, some places may not even notice the world falling apart at all. When he said "we lose", I take it as the loss of civilization, land and lives. The world wouldn't be the same again. But humanity would prevail.

@@moteroargentino7944 Isolation didn't work very well for us last time. The more advanced humanity becomes, the less people are out of reach. Siberia and the stretches of northern Canada and the Anatarctic could even be at risk not too far from now. In many ways, they already are. In a would-be scenario, the smarter people would run to the north or the south. Forced to flare out. Nobody is ever perfectly safe.

Idk why but that makes my blood run cold

The world has been warmer than now, and will be again.

@@Kyle-sr6jm With less trees to absorb the heat compared to the last time it happened. The earths' natural forestry has basically been decimated. Google "do trees absorb heat?" and have a look at the type of tree mentioned. The oak tree. The most important tree on planet earth, and it is largely the reason we even have a temperate atmosphere. It is literally known as "The tree of life". The next time the earth heats up we won't have enough oak trees to offset the temperature. And everyone knows what happens when heat stays in one place with no release or absorbtion....it becomes an oven.

@@Kyle-sr6jm Yeah, it has. About 120,000 years ago. And the average was about 0.1-0.2°C hotter than it is now. When we reach the 3°C point above pre-industrial level that we're heading towards in the next 40-50 years now, we'll have to go back several million years to find something similar. At 4°C, here's a perspective for ya: When the Earth was at 4°C below pre-industrial (about 15,000-20,000 years ago was the last time it was that cold), New York was under a kilometre-thick sheet of ice. Imagine the difference to today, then replace "cold" with "hot". That's how fucked we are if it hits +4°C.

Which is ridiculous. Portobello mushrooms are not about to suddenly evolve to zombify us. He mentions aspergillus, the mold essential to Japanese cuisine consumed in huge quantities. Miso paste will not suddenly turn us into zombies. This is not how evolution works. Saying any fungi could potentially suddenly zombify us is like saying any plant, animal, insect, or bacterium could suddenly evolve to zombify us. The precedent given are a handful of exotic fungi that evolved over long periods of time with a fee species of small insects. Evolution is gradual. Besides, fungicides exist. There is fungal disease and antifungal medication. You can walk into any pharmacy and buy such medications to kill fungal infections like athlete's foot. The more common fictional modified rabies virus and supernarural explanations are more plausible than the overnight evolution of a fungus that can turn humans into zombies. An engineered bioweapon, alien technology, magic, and good old fashioned divine retribution are more plausible than the sudden emergence of human zombifying fungus. The pseudoscientific explanations that have been in vogue to be explain zombies over the last several decades are less believable than magic. These are walking corpses, often living indefinitely. There is no mechanism for them to function. Muscles cannot work without the human organs and behaviors that sustain them. Anyone zombified would be dead in a few days, since they don't have any self-preservation instincts. They'd die of dehydration. In a few hours, they'd be tired. In cold regions, they'd freeze outside. In hot regions, their bodies would degrade extremely quickly.

My son who was diagnosed with autism also has a severe candida infection (aspergillus niger to be exact). It is believed to have caused his condition, and is becoming more and more common worldwide, along with increases in cancer, and other serious diseases.

​@@christophersheldon7088 Please don't go around spreading misinformation on the internet❤

@@christophersheldon7088 Candida is becoming a threat because of its ability to thrive in clinical settings, but I have never heard of it being able to cause autism. I think you may have misunderstood something.

@Michael-jp8ir Gut dysbiosis and candida are extremely common in ASD children and adults. Candida is linked with many different mental disorders and diseases. I believe damage to the vagus is what caused my son's autism, and anti-fungal medication (combined with low carb/sugar/dairy diet) has changed his life for the better. Perhaps some research is needed on your end.

I like this type of idk what it is called. I call them Science Horror. Explaining about some type of pandemic that can't be stopped even using fire (I heard that the cordyceps can survive high heat). According to my experience (and you too who's reading this), we all know this will spread very fast even If we tried to warn, prevent and stop this pandemic/endemic. Why? Look what happened during the COVID-19 pandemic. No one can stop ignorance except ourselves. I think you know what I mean. History can be stopped from repeating if we all learn from it.

@@Saimeren the average man lives until the age of 75. So him already being 6 feet under is definitely a possibility. And i guess he should be thankful about it.

I thought that the 28 days franchise has an extremely terrifying take on the zombie theory. Super-rabies that spreads from bites and blood? Unrealistic given the time the infection kicks in, but…let’s just say it revolutionized the zombie genre for a reason.

@@BenjaminSteber Interestingly enough, from an epidemiological standpoint, the Rage Virus is easily contained. Its rapid onset and virulence ensures that it cannot spread past geographical boundaries and, thus, cannot infect the entire world.

They all seem to bounce off each other in one way or another. Halo did this with the Flood through some of the original lore. It's a fungus that evolved into a hive mind. Then they ruined it with some story about a shape-shifting ancient hyper intelligent race. Even 20+ years later, I still hate that level when they first show up.

​@@simcoyote True

Yeah but still nonsense. The guy r retends anti funguls dont exist (they do). That fungus have complete control of ants (they dont). And that the nervous system of a human is similiar to an ant (many fold times more complicated). I get its just a show, but people might by some of these arguments without thinking.

Very similar to someone being fully paralyzed, except instead of being motionless your body is being moved against your will, you feel all the pain and exhaustion as usual but you can do nothing. Prisoner in your own mind. For me, the most terrifying iteration of the zombie in pop culture by far

The game of this show actually established that very fact in the background. There's certain times in the game when you can sneak around and encounter the infected and if you manage not to alert them, you can hear the human inside crying as it eats another person. They are very much just along for the ride.

No, its impossible to happen. Its a science fiction, don't take it too seriously (but kudos on the directors to cherrypick the facts to make it 'reasonable' in TLOS universe, hence the immersiveness). TL;DR: The nature of human body is way, way, WAY complex than ant's to make it a reality. The reason why ants that are infected with cordyceps are 'zombified' is because the fungus infected the ant's muscle membranes instead of the mind, which is way, way, way harder to achieve in mammals. Insects like beetles got infected by cordyceps having the similar end but they didn't get 'zombified' because it takes too much energy to spread throughout the muscle membranes. All that with the combination of the complexity of our immune system with the likes of neutrophils and integrins to combat fungus infection is making it more irrelevant, unless your immune system is having a bad time in the wrong time. And we still didn't dive into the topic of antifungal medical treatment yet, which is a thing for literally millennials. A simple antifungal treatment can easily chase off the fungus out of our body. If people are really concern with fungus related topic, we should all focusing on Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) instead as fungus are growing resistance to antifungal medical treatment in recent years. The entire world still didn't bother to focus on such concerning subject yet as little development and research are being done on it (Sounds familiar? Thats right, its a similar vibe as COVID back in 2020 as human never gives a fuck until shit hits the fan). WHO's 2019 report has stated that there are literally 1.27 millions of casualties caused by AMR, and speculated that by the year of 2050 it will reach 350 million casualties, yearly deathly toll will be 10 millions. All-in-all, we should focus our effort in combating AMR instead by voicing our concerns to the global community. Fungus are a magnificent creature with tons of benefits when controlled and combat well, but when its out of control, don't expect it will end well. Stay strong, stay healthy.

@@LukeDOMGBBQ A number of insects are susceptible to to these fungi, but that hasn't prevented these insects from achieving a healthy population. For that matter, our bodies constantly encounter hostile fungal spores in stupendous numbers every day. Cordyceps may have a novel method for spreading it's spores further if it sufficiently infects a host, but it still has to defeat the hosts immune system.

@@Sethgolas To counter your points, human society is integrated in ways that even ant colonies don't replicate. Ant colonies are isolationist and two ants from different colonies meeting typically results in all-out war. This means that ants roam inside their own territory with little "exploration" of the vast world outside of it except for food. A single fungal epidemic can wipe out an ant colony, but transferring to the *next* colony is where the difficulty lies. Human travel and societal integration means that the spread is already almost guaranteed. As for the immune system, humans are already being slowly stripped of their immune system in the developed world. Everything being "clean" and the sheer lack of exposure to nature that city dwellers have means that they are even more susceptible to transmission as we sit.

I think its the best reason "why" zombies exist. Too many times, zombie infection takes on a bit of a supernatural component. Last of Us has a somewhat plausible reason for zombies.

It is caused by exposure to mucor mould which is commonly found in soil, plants, manure, and decaying fruits and vegetables. it also stays in the nostrils of people but donot affect them, if ur already weakened by an existing condition only then it gets dangerous. it doesnt need to mutate to harm you it already can it depends on how good ur imunity is. the second wave of covid ravaged the healthcare in India and this was a result of that

Spartacus ? is that same guy who get to have segg with many girls in almost every opening scene in every ep ?

@@anacc9261 there are none straighter

@@anacc9261 kinda like your profile pic

Neumann: “What if the world were to get slightly warmer?” Me: “Eheheheh, ah man wouldn’t that be cra… ah, fuck.”

Temp has very little to do with it. Its directly related to the increase in carbon in the atmosphere. My son who was diagnosed with autism also has a severe candida infection (aspergillus niger to be exact). It is believed to have caused his condition, and is becoming more and more common worldwide, along with increases in cancer, and other serious diseases.

So why is he wrong? That's not a challenge - I'm honestly curious.

@@Atreus21 For one, we do have means of combating fungal spores from disseminating in the air. Air filters would be the first line of defense on a macro scale. I'm not certain that likening human behavior to that of ants is entirely accurate. Sure, humanity is also a social species, but ants are on a whole different level of population density. And most importantly, unlike ants, we have scientific methods to assess human brains for abnormalities.

@@jonahmiller5881 yeah, that was the only thing that was false in his speech. Most of the other stuff could happen, but we do have ways to fight fungal infections.

@@AnthonyJMurph The problem is that any infection of the brain is exponentially harder to treat. We have a structure in our bodies called the blood-brain barrier. This is a membrane around our central nervous system that is extremely selective about what it lets through, far more selective than most of the other membranes in our bodies (lungs, stomach, intestines, etc.) and this is a good thing. It prevents most viruses and bacteria from crossing into the central nervous system, which without modern medicine was almost always fatal. But some microorganisms are a lot more effective at crossing the blood-brain barrier (Meningococcus bacteria for example), and that means that the antibiotics or antivirals have to be able to follow them into the central nervous system. This can be a serious pharmacological challenge though since the blood-brain barrier is really selective about what it allows across. So yeah, we have a ton of antifungals that can treat a fungal infection in the lungs or the bloodstream, but not as many that are able to cross the blood-brain barrier. If a fungus evolves that is either immune or resistant to the CNS antifungals that we have discovered, then that represents a serious problem if that fungus is also highly infectious. Not likely, since a lot of things have to happen in tandem, but over a long enough timespan anything can evolve.

I was sad he left Transplant

I got reminded of that too, I kinda got chills. Ps: The Oppenheimer movie is gonna be great

@@pjv3963 Didn't know there will be a movie.. I recently watched a documentary about him and his life was very interesting. Thx for the info, I will definetly check out the movie :) ...edit: I just googled the movie and damn does it have a great cast and director. thx again for the info :)

@@_etwas_ you're welcome. You need to see the trailer if you haven't already

@@pjv3963 I just now have and I am genuinely hyped now :)

That's the same actor who's gonna play Oppenheimer is it not? I stand corrected peaky blinders guy got it, I've gotta say though this actor, peaky blinders, and Oppenheimer himself all have a similar look about them.

thanks for your lovely comment on my video, glad you were entertained :D I entertain on a daily basis on my twitch from Monday to Friday, pls come gib me a follow to show support, id super appreciate it my friend! twitch.tv/MARS_BDO

Same 💯

Fahrenheit or Celsius?

@@skiboi Celsius

Well I'm certain the reason for that would be the globe warming up after the ice ages receded, no longer needing a higher body temperature to withstand the frigid temperatures

@@gabrieltorres3932 nah, considering the fact we only started measuring that in the last 2 centuries it's most likely due to a reduced amount of infections causing fevers. If less people are sick, less people have fevers and less people are hot (haha). That's the issue with averages, they seldom tell the full story.

@@aytekineric8306 But there was a mini ice age which ended in the 19th century, that could've been a factor too. Its also the reason we're seeing "Record temperatures", because we started recording around the time it ended, before the planet started warming up.

Hey! Thanks for your lovely comment on my vid, would it be cool if i please asked if you could follow my twitch? Im so close to 100 followers haha 😅 it would mean a lot to me 🙏 twitch.tv/MARS_BDO

Personally it feels a little anachronistic for me. At first all I could hear was the vague 21st century language from random doomsday movie dialogue. But the camera work and acting is very good so it doesn't throw me off too much.

Like it is right now sadly glaciers are melting faster and that plays a huge role in earth temperature

JoJo! HelloLo! 👋😁 Could i please ask if it would be cool for you to follow my twitch please? It will help my channel grow and stand out, please consider it twitch.tv/MARS_BDO
