Wendigoon threatening to demote people’s favorite cryptids if they complain about their placing is an S tier moment

@@p-__you will never amount to anything

thinikin the same thing xD
Annoyed Wendigoon is my favorite cryptid.
Wendigoon telling us that he will take all the Cryptids down a grade if we keep complaining was such a dad “keep yelling and I’ll turn this car around” moment and I love that.
My farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
i felt a rush of nostalgia
Makes me want to complain about Bigfoot to the point he has to put it in F.
He has Dad energy. Like a young new dad
He's as angry as he's ever been.
My favorite cryptid is the Wendigoon.
Sightings in rural Appalachia have described an enormous, hairy humanoid, usually seen brandishing firearms and Hawaiian shirts. It has been described making lists, summarizing books or movies, and engaging in conspiatorial discussion.
Terrifying, but alluring
Undoubtedly the best cryptid.
It's got so much evidence on film too, I honestly believe this one is real tbh
Uh, yeah...
It even has a whole youtube channel about it…
As someone from Fresno, hearing that Mrs. Wendigoon put little nightcrawlers all over the house made me happy.
Hearing Wendigoon talk about Wendigos is like seeing a little kid FINALLY get to give their school presentation on their favorite monster
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
Yeah it's just wild how he showed almost no wendigos during that section. Maybe one or two photos were what wendigos are supposed to look like, not the deer head thing most people think of.
Bro why are you everywhere@@p-__
when i get like that about things i love people always tell me im talking too much and then i just get upset cuz its like, ok so you weren't listening at all? wtf!
it really is
You could make an entire tier list of just the cryptids that can be described as "a monkey but like a bit bigger or looked kinda weird"

Hey, a randon Brazilian here. Weendingoon, there's a book called "house of leaves" that is the most insane and confuses things i ever read. This book have a mount of concepts that are throught to you without explanaiton. Like: non euclidean geometry,depression,mental ilnes,grief and A LOT MORE. Its just a 83 pages of text, but HOLY SHIT, this thing is horendously confuse. I hould love see another 4 hours video from you talking about this book. Its a masave rabit hole that i have 100% of certainty that you will love discovers.
shit it’s only 30$ i might pick it up
100% agree - fingers crossed he sees your comment!
I second this. That book haunts me
@@justtalking6614 It's a kind of horor than i never experienced in any other midia. It's like a cosmic horror, but with something more...
Who’s the author??
As an Australian, the thylacine ranking makes sense honestly. I just hope that Australian cryptids like the Yowie and Drop Bear (especially the Drop Bear) are covered because Americans always have the funniest opinions 🤣
When I first heard of drop bears I laughed for so long. The thought of a giant koala just dropping down on you like some sumo ninja just kills me.
Yowie is Bigfoot but on steroids and violent
@@stoneyJutsunot something to laugh about mate pretty dangerous in rural parts of aus
@@stoneyJutsu people have died mate its not funny
but yeah id love a yowie or a bunyip on these
Wendigoon: The Thylacine is just an extinct species. F-tier.
Also Wendigoon: Megaladon is an extinct shark species. B-tier.
Being a Shark has perks
Thylacine is a dumb dog marsupial thing, megalodon is a big ass giant fucking ahark thats cool as fuck
complain about it and he can bring Megaladon down to F-tier too lol
I was totally gonna point out how they're the same haha
Because the other one is lame at least the megladon would be a terrifying massive shark
Something about this wholesome Christian man talk about horrifying cryptids just brings me a calmness

I heard the drama about you on Twitter and I want to say that your fans are here to support you and that your conspiracy theory and Bible theory icebergs have gotten me through a really tough time in my life and helped me to be more spiritual in my life and be more positive. So I just want to say Thank You for your videos and thank you for being a role model to me. Remember we got your back and God is with you. God bless and take care, brother.
What happened exactly? Can ya give me a tldr version because I have never heard of such drama occurring before
@Zacharyallbrook5162 So basically, some people on Twitter or X found out that Wendigoon is Christian and that he likes guns and they're quite offended, so they've been giving him hell ever since.
@WilliamOshea-sj9ze some people need to get a life,who cares if someone's a Christian or likes guns , it's absolutely pathetic
@@WilliamOshea-sj9ze tbf, we've had issues with well armed Christian conspiracy theorists in this country
Buuuuut people are stupid and don't want to look past appearances, even for someone as unproblematic as Wendigoon (afaik)
@@Historybuff_769Thanks for the opinion, Mr. Wilhelm. Thoughts on Serbia?
The story of the last thylacine is actually even more hilarious/tragic. It died alone in captivity and then, instead of preserving its body for study or whatever, they just threw it in the bin
"Uh, this one-of-a-kind animal died, what do we do with it? Stuff it, give it to science, bury it..."
"Throw it in the trash."
@@flordelphinta They DID actually have preserved specimens already, just,... not that one.
But yeah Wendigoon's putting it in F-tier was totally justified.
i don't know why but i just bursted out laughing after reading this. poor thing...
That's actually the opposite of hilarious.
Allegedly Forrest gilante found one
wendi is usually so polite and applogetic about criticism in his videos so his reaction to the twitter stuff was incredibly refreshing
His title is iceberg boy🙏
he deserves the criticism. Bigfoot not on S is a fucking crime
@@UnhumanNewman4:05 I think he’s talking to you here 😂
@@UnhumanNewmanbigfoot? More like Big L
@@UnhumanNewmannah bigfoot is extremely overrated at best he's just a
gigantopithecus that has somehow survived the Pleistocene Epoch era and up to now and the worst case is some guy that started the world's largest hoax so either he's a giant prehistoric ape and at worst he's a stupid human in a suit
Wendigoon telling us he's gonna take the Cryptids down a grade just reminds me of "I'll move your clip down if you keep misbehaving in class"
If wendigoon doesn’t post the next part soon I’m going to go feral
Which means you'll be in a future Iceberg of criptids :) (probably)
It’s been to long since the last cryptid video released
Are you feral yet?
WendiLoon is trying my patience 😂
wendigoon posted‼️‼️‼️
I laughed harder then I should have when Wendi said "Excuse me for thinking big-fish isn't as cool as Bigfoot"
He’s wrong but it’s funny
This is truly a comment of comments
Big Fish is a really good movie though :'(
bigfoot is just some hairy ape that's like a C- grade cryptid
It's cool because it might be an evolutionary memory from us worrying about other human species, similarly to how we're afraid of things that look human but aren't exactly right
As a Fresno local it's really weird to hear Wendigoon talk about our little folk tale. It's a pretty new cryptid too, considering it got it's popularly mostly online.
the fresno nightcrawlers are my favourite cryptid, they just seem so friendly 😭
it looks so dumb, i like it so much
Where I come from we have a lake monster(which is weird given my state has few large lakes), and occasionally people will bring it up and I’m like “most people here don’t know about this, who tf are you?” To be fair other local legends do include aliens, Bigfoot and the Wendigo so it’s easily overshadowed
Reminds me of the simpsons episode where Mr burns glows in the woods
@@arth-ritisoutdooradventure7467 What's the lake monster called?
Someone said you were getting flack for being religious on youtube, and one of the main reasons I subscribed to you was your religion reading series. I loved how unafraid, polite, and well said the stories were. Keep winning king.
I love his religion stuff. Wish he'd do more of it
As a pretty solid agnostic/atheist depending on the day, I like when he includes religious background in his videos. It never feels preach-y and always inclusive!
Dude him being religious makes it even better!
for some reason I actually thought he was atheist before the twitter tards started complaining, it's nice to know he's also christian
That Twitter thread was so dumb. Granted I didn't see what prompted Wendi to tweet, to summarize, "fuck off (but politely)," the guy's claim was basically because Wendigoon is a Christian then that must mean he's also racist?? The screenshots to supplement were completely irrelevant. It's all very stupid lol.
17:20 the image of a horror movie where a character is getting pounded by the rain and the wind, and they look straight up, as the camera follows their gaze, with a lightning strike illuminating a massive bird hidden the clouds is amazing
I was obsessed with the thunderbird when I was younger. My friend Gabe, who is Ojibwe and Sioux, use to tell me stories about how it was revered by his tribes, and very much real.
a history teacher of mine used to tell us stories abt it. there's so uniquely terrifying abt the thought of looking up to see a bird so huge it blocks out the sun
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
@@p-__type shit
A bit off topic but could you tell me how to properly say “Sioux” I’ve seen it written many times but I don’t think I’ve heard it said out loud, so I’m not sure how to say it
oooo any stories to share? Id love to hear!
I’m surprised Part 2 was uploaded so quickly. I was expecting to wait 2-3 months lol
My farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts
Fucking same. Bro!
Same!
I want to be a trans kid when I grow up
@@TransKidsMafiawhat
Wendi getting drunk with power over the tier list is hilarious
The flat woods monster was so loved, it’s what inspired the aliens on the farm in Majoras Mask. Well deserved S-tier!
I haven’t gotten to that part of the video yet, but I love Majoras mask so now I’m excited to see it.
As a kid that was probably the most stressful and (almost) most terrifying part of the game next to the entirety of Ikana, and the way Romani just looks lobotomized after the aliens return her is disturbing
The Tremors movies made me realize how terrifying giant worms could be at a young age so I’ve always liked the Mongolian death worm stories
There was an episode of this show I used to watch (Sliders) and one of the episode was about a version of earth where giant worms were under the whole planet
The lost tapes episode about giant sandworms terrified 10 year old me
Literally same. Loved that movie as a kid, it totally freaked me out
Tremors is an often forgotten scary movie.
Dune did the same for me
Felt like he was punishing those who were complaining about Kraken being in B tier when he added the walking sentient pants to the same tier
LOL
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
To be fair both Kraken and Fresno Nightcrawlers should have been S tier
I’m not sure if you plan on continuing the missing 411 series but if so I would love to see you cover Bart schleyer. It’s understandable how a lot of the kids go missing but a grown man who is known for being trained in and loving wildlife and survivalism is so bizarre. Love your content!
I feel like a significant number of cryptids come down to people unexpectedly encountering owls at night and freaking out. Some owls are HUGE up close, have big reflector eyes and their wings make absolutely no sound, so they can be extremely uncanny to meet face to face in the dark.
“Take your cat dog back to the McDonald’s PlayPlace, the adults are talking” Best phrase I’ve heard 🤣 I can’t wait to say this to my family. Love you Wendigoon! ❤️❤️
Oof. 😂
Don’t tell the Furries this!
If that’s the best phrase you’ve ever heard I feel really sorry for you
I love how the first few minutes of this video feel like we got the teacher ranting about a topic we knew would set them off by asking the right questions
The megalodon is the most overrated thing ever the fact that it’s even considered a cryptid nowadays is so annoying
@@merucrypoison296For reals. Too many movies and appearances in other media. Not to mention the people who think the Megalodon is still alive and it's in "The Marijuana Trench"
@@TotallyNotUltraman1966 how you feel about it will matter when you make your own tier list

Whats the twitter been saying?
@@NbNgMODthey don't like that he's Christian and likes guns, causing a hissy fit over something that dosen't even bother them
@@cantremember6794 aww I see, does that mean Christians are revoking their right to bare arms?
@@NbNgMOD Trying to claim both him and Internet Historian are Nazis. Stupid people being stupid.
Thylacine, a unique animal, gets F tier for being an extinct species that may not be extinct; but the Megalodon, which is just a big shark which is absolutely 100% extinct, gets a B?! I'm declaring shenanigans!
The Mongolian Death Worm is one of my favorite Cryptids because of lost tapes, that episode was legit terrifying as a child
Oklahoma octopus fucked me up tbh
I still think that the Mongolian Death Worm is an undescribed species of venomous snake.
I like the Mongolian Death Worm because of its Dune incarnation. It just feels like a force of nature. Also the Gobi dessert being the one where a lot of the dinosaurs were excavated spices things up.
That episode fucked me up
I remember when they had lost tapes on animal planet. I used to stay up till like 4 am just to watch it then not sleep because I was too scared to
There is something oddly creepy to me about instances like the Lizard Man, the Dover Demon, or the Beast of Bray Road. These bizarre creatures with enough presence to trigger real police investigations, disturb an entire community, gain traction in headlines - just vanish. Like whenever you see a spider in your room only for it to disappear in a blink.
It's still there, somewhere.
It helps that they aren't nearly as widespread and fleshed out characters as, say, Bigfoot or Mothman. Lots and lots of unknowns still lingering around them.
Sort of makes me think the people who were behind the hoaxes got bored and stopped doing it
I’m sure all the island creatures wondered what happened to the shipwrecked sailors when they died too. A one off humanoid creature that seems to have a lot of sightings for a few months or years just to disappear should at least be entertained as possibly shipwrecked extraterrestrial.
Spiders eat bugs. It’s somewhere cleaning your room.
the government caught them. killed them. perhaps they escaped a facility somehow (which is extremely unsettling to think about)
Keep positive man! Don't let Twitter get you down! Keep the feeling that makes you wake up to tomorrow. You're exactly were you're supposed to be, much love man!
Two interesting points on the thylacine, there was a breeding pair of thylacine that were on a ship bound for America and the ship crashed, it was carrying animals that were bound for zoos across the country, and most of the animals actually made it to shore so some people theorize that that breeding pair could have possibly even made it to shore, and that is what the rumors of the chupacabra stem from in America.... Second, before the thylacine was hunted to Extinction in Australia, and Tasmania its original habitat also extended to Papua New Guinea including several nearly impossible to reach mountain ranges, however natives from those regions when shown pictures of them say they've seenthylacine in recent years in some of these incredibly remote regions. I've seen Forrest galanteon his podcast talking about how he thinks that if any of them actually do still exist to this day that that's where they're going to find them in the almost impossible to reach areas and mountains of Papua New Guinea, basically a isolated population of these animals that have been living in this mountainous terrain and valley areas that are almost impossible for humans to get to...
I love how triggered Wendi gets when people at him for the rating of the cryptids
Never slander a man with a fascination for cryptids.
My only real complaint is I wish he would have said something about if the cryptids were based on real animals, like how likely they'd be realistic. Otherwise, yah lol
22:35
one thing that should be noted is the wendigo is probably also inspired by deer, elk or moose with chronic wasting disease, and honestly meeting one would be as terrifying as meeting a wendigo.
I think elements of that could contribute to later iterations, but the original mythology and concept is distinctly humanoid/zombie-esque
Creutzfeldt is terrifying
I’m from PA, deer capital of the world. And I got within a few feet of one. I was walking home down an alleyway one night when a deer started walking to me, all shakey like. The deer seemed disoriented. He kept trying to follow me. Even in the dim light I could see the patchyness of his fur and his eyes seemed glazed over. Getting within a dozen meters of wild deer is super common here. But this guy was a few feet from me. I ran across the street, and he kept following (almost being hit by a car) he was drooling as well. Sad thing to see. Also a very freaky thing to run into in an alleyway in the middle of the night.
So, due to the weakened state of the animals plagued with that cheonic wasting disease, those animals become precise vessels for demons to possess and inhabit, thereby allowing them to stand on two legs and have an insane amount of strength and force, then?
Interesting;
@@stuglife5514 omg are you sure it didnt have rabies??
Are we getting a part 3 of this at any point? I've been hoping for more.
I just had major spinal surgery, and these videos are perfect for distracting me from the pain. Building my own tier in my mind is a good thing to focus on. Really looking forward to part 3, and discovering more I've never heard of before. Braxy was a new one in this tier.
From a fellow member of the jank spine gang I wish you the best of luck my guy! Take it slow and get better soon!
@@koolaidman4869 Thanks
As someone of Native American heritage I greatly appreciate you emphasizing the difference between the original indigenous beliefs of the wendigo and the modern wendigo tales, because so many don't do this and it is INCREDIBLY frustrating to see ppl completely bastardize and butcher native beliefs and then try to present those modern retellings as the originals. This is most egregiously done with skinwalkers. Literally what everyone nowadays seems to think is a skinwalker is NOT a skinwalker whatsoever and is radically different from how they're described in native beliefs.
then your legends are different than the ones other people like, your culture is not more important than their culture. ever. being mad about people purposely misrepresenting your culture is fine, but being mad at having their own that is based on tales from untold generations ago and have changed since is completely pointless. your native American versions have likely changed over time as much as the pop culture versions have, that is just how information and culture disseminates. if you are getting pissed because you want sole rights to the name of a thing that exists in pop culture AND native American culture, then that's a massive you problem.
Yeah it's really sad how much those legends were bastardized and appropriated in modern pop culture. I used the skinwalker for a cryptid based ttrpg campaign taking place during the gold rush and in my research I quickly learned how different they actually were. It's actually insane how much it's been mishandled.
@@logandarnell8946 Nowhere in BathinginAcheron's comment did they say that they were mad about people having a different, separate modern version of the belief. They are mad, because people think that the new modern beliefs are the original Native beliefs. Go back to school and get some reading comprehension, please. It will help you greatly in life
Also you got mad for nothing and typed a whole ass novel complaining about something that didn't even happen, haha
@@logandarnell8946 Wow, their point flew so far above your head you couldn't reach for it if you tried.
Or you're a troll.
As someone also native American we live on reservations full of drunk obese people and no water.
as someone who’s lived in denton texas my whole life, goatman is definitely a big part of just living down here. me and my friends consistently make jokes about “going to goatman’s bridge and performing a ritual.” hell, my dad took me there once after a partner had broken up with me. goatman is definitely a top-tier cryptid for me
Must be a Denton thing. Im in a nearby city and never heard of it
@@phyre3466I’m from Fort Worth and never heard of it until I went to university in Denton
It's certainly an aspect of the town's culture, but I think the people cryptids around town are much weirder than Goatman, somehow. Tiger Head Guy, Flat Earth Guy, Zombie Truck, Spiderman, etc. What a weird town we live in...
Been to Old Alton Bridge a few times
I live in Denton too and I love it. Such a fun cryptid. Haven't been to the bridge yet but I love the stories around it and can't wait to go there at some point.
i hope the thylacine did not truly die out because id love to see one recorded in the wild and it would be happy news for everyone if such a cool creature is still around. it may not be the "coolest" cryptid but its more plausible then most and id say its still an exciting topic worth talking about. although i absolutely appreciate the subjectivity of your list, hoping you some day make thylacine at least a D rank though.

I admire your dedication to providing well-researched content by accepting when some elements are not in your wheelhouse instead of tossing out uncertain info! And it's going to be a more enjoyable video to watch you talk about things that you love. The passion you put into things is what brings me back again and again to your channels.
I've been watching you for a while and I just want to say I'm very happy to see how well your channel has grown. keep up the good work.
"Critique me again. Come at me again. I WILL throw you in F tier." has to be my new favorite Wendigoon quote by far
The beginning of this video had me dying of laughter. Especially "Looking at you, Smoo" part. Imagine being called out by Wendigoon like a student who is misbehaveing. Annoyed Wendi is just comedy gold and I want more of it.
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
That combined with "If you're getting these as a gift, make sure they understand object permanence." I love sassy Wendigoon. lol
He did do the thylocine dirty though. There is a bunch of cool lore around it. Way better than lame bigfoot knockoffs anyway.
@@incidentlyaniguana2193honestly just the biological aspects of the thylocine makes me love it as both creature and cryptid. It makes me sad that he ranked it low but i understand and respect his ranking. Its all personal opinion.
You've been absolutely crushing it lately man! Can't wait for the rest of this series, keep up the awesome work
As someone who has been a lifelong skeptic of all things supernatural, but equally intrigued by ghost stories, cryptids, and mysteries of the sort, no creature has ever filled me such a sense of primal dread as the wendigo. A spirit manifestation of insatiable hunger is borderline cosmic horror and I just love it so much. Always get a chill down my spine when I read stories based on it

Look I’m not going to lie. I’m a sea/lake monster nerd. Initially your placement of them was KILLING me. But after a bit, I realised that the greatest thing about this is that you and I can both be into cryptids, but independently be interested in such different aspects of them. That’s cool.
rare UA-cam comment W
probably my favorite UA-cam comment
No you should hate what is different
Being from BC I’m a big fan of the Ogopogo and Caddy
Wow you realized people have opinions. I guess it had to happen eventually. 😂
I almost wonder if the Wendigo is based on Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease/kuru. The descriptions of the contorting body, emaciation, seeming possessed, etc. Especially with the spirit affecting those whom have specifically eaten human flesh; not just killing a person, but eating them. It’s known that kuru can last longer than traditional sCJD and is more likely to cause behavioral changes as one of the first symptoms, including agitation and psychosis. Symptoms also include social withdrawal, muscle spasms, loss of appetite, loss of speech, etc. It almost seems to me as though the legend of the Wendigo could’ve been a way for these communities to not only explain kuru, but also serve as a warning against consuming dangerous meat
The Oklahoma National Guard’s patch is the Thunderbird, I think it’s very fitting given the purpose of the guard and its history. I love wearing the thunderbird patch.

I would absolutely watch a deep dive by Wendigoon on the Wendigo, without hesitation
The Texas Goatman is also associated with a story of a man killed by a lynch mob, so his spirit haunts the bridge he was hanged at. Admittedly, that makes him less a cryptid and more just a ghost story, but I feel it’s still worth mentioning.
Nothing little more than a story unfortunately as there are no records from the time of any such goat farmer having ever lived in the area let alone his murder at the hands of a lynch mob
@@sithsynjent4389 Right, because every lynching has been well documented before. I know it's just a story, but it's a bit more likely than a goat-headed demon. Plus this story has motivated kkk meetings there as recently as 2017.
Goatman’s bridge. Cool place to be at night
@@Sn00chieb00chiesand during the day it’s an old suspension bridge covered in graffiti and trash😂 I do love the trails behind it though, I just always feel like I’m gonna stumble upon something illegal happening
@@bethanylamastus15 lol exactly
Father, if you dont post part 3 soon, Im going to go so feral ill be on this list
This series is great, I’ve been itching and checking daily for part 3
As a kid (In the 90's) I remember reading a random UFO book that my dad had, and it had one story about three kids encountering an extra terrestrial being in the woods and I remember the picture being super scary at the time. I was always wondering about that story and if I could ever see the picture again, and now I found out it was the Flatwoods Monster, and the picture here is probably the one in the book. Thank you for closing this (albeit insignificant) chapter in my life!
Listening to Wendi threaten to put some man Childs favourite imaginary animal down the tier list had me laughing. The way he treats them like spoilt kid
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
17:47 my favourite story about the Orang Pendek is when a research team went looking for it and asked the natives if they've seen it and alot of them told them storys of them witnessing it walking around in the woods but when they started saying it wore a yellow shirt the researchers started getting confused and kept asking until they finally came to the conclusion that the people were just describing one of the crew members who had a big beard.
The fact that a bunch of crybabys are trying to cancel a UA-cam legend is hilarious.
Please never stop doing what you do wendigoon. You are loved by many regardless of a few loudmouth idiots who are mad they can't create such a successful UA-cam channel themselves.
Saw your collab with papa meat and Charlie. 👍 👍 kudos
Who is trying to cancel him?
@GrayMask_Studios apparently anti-Christian/catholic/w/e
Ppl who believe in God in general
It was news to me too. "They" are mad bc he mentioned in his videos that he was a Sunday school teacher and went to church. The fact that anyone gives cancel culture any standing to start with is stupid. (I mean if you're a murderer or a pedo then I get it.) But in this country you have the freedom of religion and that gets peoples panties in a bunch for some reason.
@@the7thArk The problem they have is that people in America have freedom of religion.
@@the7thArka bunch of mean comments don't mean that he is getting cancelled oh my god, get a grip. He has 3 millions subscribers and he'll only keep growing. Christians are not oppressed.
Wendigoon threatening to punish everyone by rearranging the tier list is the funniest thing ive ever seen
"You wanted your stupid cat dog thing on the tier list....fine...F TIER...STUPID CRYPTID"
"IF YOU DONT SHUT UP ABOUT THE CRYPTIDS IN B TIER IM ARRANGING ALL OF THEM AND PUTTING THEM IN F TIER 😈"
My farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts 💨
hard agree that the wendigo is one of the greatest, most terrifying cryptids out there. i always had a fascination with it, as well as skinwalkers. they both have that uncanny valley feel to them, but what i think makes the wendigo more chilling than the skinwalker, is the fact that it’s something that literally, used to be human. skinwalkers are scary because the idea of something non-human wanting to appear human is genuinely terrifying. but the idea of an actual human TURNING into something non-human because of their disgusting, animalistic behavior gives me the shivers. the thought of seeing a creature as terrifying as that, and knowing it used to look just like you truly keeps me awake at night. as a kid, i used to be scared of gollum from lotr, because i couldn’t comprehend how a person, with feelings and a soul, could turn into… that. so yeah, i totally understand you wendigoon.
skinwalkers are literally human. theyre witches.
Skinwalkers are literal humans. It’s really frustrating seeing something from my culture get so twisted up by the outside world. Skinwalkers are people; greedy, selfish, evil people who hurt others to get their way. They don’t wear people’s skins, they don’t mimic people or voices. They are called skinwalkers because they use the skins of animals to fast travel and spy and do things in secret. They’re witches.
Part of why they do- I suspect is because they can’t feel or choose not to. It’s speculated that they or some of them give up their humanity….. which likely ties in with why they emit and provoke a lot of fear, anxiety, etc.
Also as a side note- I still think that no matter what they are, they’re still bound by certain laws set in place by the Creator…. And can be opposed by spiritual forces.
Namely Angels if you want me to be specific
@@daydreamdirty are you replying to me about skinwalkers? If so, Navajos don’t believe in one almighty creator or angels. We have a pantheon of deities who are, although very powerful, not almighty nor rule over us. They assist us, they teach us their knowledge. Skinwalkers are like dark medicine men, using their natural born abilities and gifts for selfish and evil reasons. Obviously there are gonna be ways to oppose them, but you should never want to try and test that should you ever come across one. Just like how, sure you can go to the hospital if you break your arm while doing something stupid, but you shouldn’t have been doing something stupid in the first place.
Well skinwalkers actually used to be human as well. They aren't so much non-humans trying to appear human but much like the wendigo, humans that became non-human.
Loving this format, I love long-style videos but am willing to watch a shorter video if the total length of the series is like 5+ hours
Love it man keep up the good work!! Goat-Man approves (read it in a cryptid book when I was a kid, he jumps out at night from edge of highway onto front of your car)
For any Zelda fans watching, you may find the Flatwoods Monster familiar because in Majora's Mask, the aliens that come to abduct cows from the ranch are based on Braxie
a few weeks ago i saw a video about the flatwood monster appearences in games and the youtuber had the weird love for it and called it her girl
The Orang Pandek has been described less like a orangutan but more like "the little man of the forest" similar to the homo floresiensis (hobbit). The interesting thing about Orang Pandek is that its sightings predate even the discovery of the bones of homo floresiensis. And the Orang Pandek sightings are also in Indonesia, where the homo floresiensis was said to exist. Meaning that it is possible that homo floresiensis may not have gone extinct 50,000 years ago on the island of Flores but could still be alive today (or relatively recently) on the neighbouring Island of Sumatra. It is like the Yeti and Bigfoot but with an increased probability of existing. I say increased possibility than the yeti or bigfoot because we have an archaeological reference point in the same part of the world. To your point if we discovered that the homo floresiensis was still alive and living in the forest of Sumatra it would completely redefine what it means for us to be human.
yes!!!!! thank you!!! i was so hooked on orang pendek and immediately thought, yup, they’re homo floresiensis. if that’s true, it will most definitely redefine what it means for us to be human. exactly what you said.
Bros insane
@@shaistadinis4606 what's crazy is its not just in indonesia, its also seen in the jungles of borneo and some stories say they live in groups, makes it more plausible and the forests are mostly unexplored.
@@dawson3776 most part of borneo is in indonesia
cryptid he likes: 5 min deep dive
cyptid he doesnt like: 1 min rundown
lol thank you for the extra information
I wanted to come here and say I've been watching you since the beginning and now I'm 25, married, and I have 7 month old twins. I work from home as a grant writer, while also taking care of my babies, and I have a lot of time to plug a headphone in and listen to your videos while they are napping or I'm writing. Sometimes I will connect my headphones to my TV and watch you on the UA-cam app, and my boys will see you and smile ear to ear, the same way some kids smile for Mrs. Rachel. Just wanted to say thanks for being you!
Highly underrated comment! W on your end, Boox.
By the end of this series, I think you should make individual videos about each S tier cryptid. Like, further in depth videos
I’ve never heard of Owl Man until now, but I instantly got a little creeped out when Wendigoon described it. One night around 3:00 AM eastern time (I live in Michigan) I woke up to a super loud thud/bang right outside my window that I sleep next to. My first instinct was to pull back my curtain and look out in the front yard to see if someone was out there, but perched on the gutter right next to my window was a massive owl, I’m talking huge, this was by far the biggest owl I’ve ever seen and it was staring right at me through my window. I got spooked since that’s pretty rare at my house at least, but I just chalked it up to being a bigger than average Great Horned Owl. But now I have some doubts about what I saw 😂😳
yooooo michigan gang
It's my understanding that birds will often drop in, wondering if we have grapes.
my farts are better than Iceberg Boy's farts.
I never heard of owl man either but I was homeless for a stretch in Spartanburg SC and at one point I had a tent in a pretty wooded area and ended up hearing some crazy ass sounds at night. It ended up being this massive Owl me and a friend decided to name it Oscar. It'd make crazy noises. There were so many times we'd smoke a blunt and Oscar would start hooting like crazy and making what sounded like mating calls. Never knew what type of owl it was just that it was massive and sounded hilarious when high. I miss Oscar.
@@ivviimcmxcix2191 you're telling me you befriended a cryptid, smoked with him, and barely questioned it? I'd miss a friend like that too. Y'all were clearly bonding.
I love your "I will turn this whole series around!" energy. Run your show how you want, I'm here for it.

How did you give the Meg a B when you gave the Thyla an F for the exact same reason. Its an animal thats gone extinct.
And where's the rake
Not gonna lie I’ve got a uni presentation today and I have been taking notes of your presentation style and it has really helped in my confidence in presenting information. You have a very good way of presenting information and I am very thankful for all you content (long time fan 😂)
I love how passionate Wendigoon is about cryptids and explaining how much he likes them. It makes me feel so much joy. Thank you for the great posts Wendigoon:)

@@p-__ ok
I love The Flatwood Monster so much because not only does she have such a wonderful design, but she was also probably just a very angry barn owl who scared the shit out of these kids and it sparked an entire tourism industry/local culture shift.
Just stopping in to say, I'm so glad to see you on all these podcasts, and your blow up in general. I've been around since there were less than 10k and you deserve all the success you seek
Excellent video. Enjoyed it very much and mostly agreed with your rankings. We've investigated a few of these, and for "The Goatman" I would add that in Wisconsin it has become muddled with urban legend to become a "Lover's Lane Killer" kind of cryptid.
Yesss!!!!! I have been WAITING for more on this iceberg. You are so appreciated for the hard work you put in. I'm excited to hear there's even more!

The beginning where Wendigoon was just ranting about how people were complaining about where he placed cryptids on the teir list made me laugh so much 🤣
I don't think I've ever seen him so aggressive lol
yo wendy! my hawaiin came in yesterday and it looks sick! i can’t wait to wear it in public so all the other fellow wendigooners can recognize it! keep up the sweet uploads and you rock so don’t let any of the nonsense get to ya.
thylacine you will always have a special place in my heart. MY FAV CATDOG (marsupial) TO EVER!!! im probably biased, but man let me have hope that the silly little guys are still around lol
As a Brit I approve of your funny British voice and you have my permission to do it whenever you want
We decline your permission and will continue to do as we please.
I really like this series because it reminds me of being a kid on early youtube and watching the “top 10 cryptid sightings” with big red circles in the thumbnails and dramatic music, but this time with better research, quality, comedy, and personality
Thank you for fixing the Tassie Tiger. You might have guessed that us Aussies are pretty insistent about it and I’m glad you also fixed the pronunciation. ❤
ive actually seen the goat man myself, im from the uk and saw him in a tree he said "alright mate" i nodded and smiled ..... lovely guy
Flatwoods monster was new to me. I love it when the places where the story originated fully adopt the lore and either take it extremely seriously or make it like almost a tourist attraction.
chop chop cryptid boy i need part 3
It's a nice evolution to see Iceberg Boy go from simply making videos using pre-made icebergs to making his own for this series. Can't wait for more!
