    A tip NL, at 38:46 you can see a secret door at the bottom - if you opened this up you'd be able to grab the idol and escape through it, meaning you can trigger the lava while keeping the Ankh. It's pretty rare for you to get a situation like that but as you can imagine it's a pretty massive boost to a run.

    Axolotls are relatives of the common north american tiger salamander. Being amphibians, they experience life stages with metamorphosis occurring throughout. What makes axolotls special is that they stay in their larval stage their entire lives. This would be the same as a frog staying a tadpole for their entire life.

    Something I've always wondered, isnt killing yang always better than giving him turkeys? What does giving yang turkeys accomplish? All I can think of is when he turns into a shop, he offers rope. He lets you buy 3 turkeys, but you get the three for free killing yang. He gives you a key to his cave, but you get that for free killing him. And you get his gold when killing him, which is probably equal to the ropes he sells, so all in all, I don't see why not kill him every time

    I don't mean this in a negative way about NL's gameplay, but just as a communal info kinda thing for just whoever wants to know. When NL is talking about how his death is "Dereky" with reference to the moon challenge, it is actually pretty avoidable if you know how that challenge spawns traps. Whenever you see a setup like that area with the crate and the split level, there is a frequent chance of an arrow trap on the top part of the split. For that reason, it's good to expect the arrow trap and drop something into there that would trigger it.
    All that said, game is very Derek, all the time. Even for avoidable deaths, there is extreme Derek energy permeating everything, so I don't mean anything by pointing out how to avoid that situation.
