    HUGE MISTAKE: Thumpers do 40 damage their first and second hit. If you are not critical health and they hit you, this will put you at 5HP and their next hit will kill you, totaling at 4 hits to kill you.
    NOTE: Thumpers will not be aggro’d if you hit them while in phase 1, which means it is possible to kill them without ever sending them into phase 2.
    Sorry for the mistake I will double check future videos. Thanks to @Charon510 and @jeremyminecraft7145 for the comments.

      Should be mentioned that as of now, the Thumper will not agro on to you if you hit it from behind. (If it can't see you, it won't agro.)
      Unlike the Nutcracker, which immediately agros onto you when it's hit

    This shows these things are very thorough when hunting or patrolling there territories.

      Steps to explode: 1
      Attack DMG: 50 / 100
      Most common on: Dine (17-35)
      Landmine has 2 phases
      1. Idle
      In this phase the landmine will make a beeping noise every few seconds and emit a red light
      2. Boom
      When a player steps on it then steps off it explodes doing area of effect damage to nearby entities including players and monsters.
      Hitting it with a shovel, droping a shovel on top of it will trigger it.
      Used stun grenades are a great way of exploding them without getting hurt. You can throw it on top of a landmine and it will trigger an explosion.

    I wasn't fully paying attention, and I think that's the only reason the knocking didn't get me

      I didn't hear it at all, because of noise from a window

    The door knock fucking terrified me because a few police cars and an ambulance just drove by my house.

    bruh I can’t find a singular comment that doesn’t talk about the knocking besides the one by alter ego, but it did kinda get me since it was so random, same with the discord notification sound in one of the other videos

    Thumpers are one of my least favorite enemies to fight because of janky hitboxes. It's like you have to aim in front of their mouth sometimes and aiming for their actual body does nothing

      yeah the hitbox is weird. I plan on including info about hitboxes in my next 55 Things You Didn't Know video.

    I stood up and checked the door and then was paranoid for a good couple of minutes
