Ever wonder if something scary could be living right under your feet? No, I don't mean bugs or your downstairs neighbors. I mean underground, like mole people or the monsters from The Descent. Haven't thought about that horror movie in a while, huh? Don't worry Theorists, with today's episode I'm going to make sure you never forget it or it's cave dwelling monsters ever, EVER again.

@polumathes9729 3 роки тому
To be fair, discovering a dead species is not the same as discovering a live one. For example, assume that T-Rex had not been discovered yet. The likelihood that it was alive would be astronomically low; it’s just too big for us to reasonably assume we’ve missed it walking around in the world. But the likelihood that we haven’t found the animal because it’s dead and buried is a waaaaaaay different thing.

It actually is just able to have symbiotic relationships with certain species harvester ants.

You forgot that we only see the younger active crawlers that are near the surface and ever go out to hunt on the surface world. With thousands of miles of caves deeper than we saw there could be tribes of them in much higher number the deeper you go with different food sources including cannibalism.

@charliefinnmichael4770 3 роки тому
Fun fact; there's a scene early on when the girls are in caves, but the crawlers aren't known yet, and you can see a figure in the background. That was a mistake and a infact it was just someone from the crew who accidentally went into frame, but the director left it in because a) it will give the viewer a bit more of a "oh crap. They're in danger" feeling before the characters. And 2) which is more of a theory; the viewer won't be as blindsided by the crawlers as normal. Which I love

I’m guessing the fact they’re still sustained, albeit not very well, is because they’re listed as endangered. I can’t imagine anyone listing the crawlers as endangered though xD I think even the most dedicated conservationists might pause at that one. Loved this episode!!

I have it on dvd and im pretty sure ive watched it over 100x. The character development is so good, and the drama and audacity of Juno. I also live in Ga so the appalachia isnt too far, and ive heard about the |-|aint witch(cant say their name or you call them) and its fun that it was close by but my favorite is their accents. Really charming accents and the shots are really good. When the cave collapses, the sound they used is the gasp of the leading lady when she wakes up from her dream
@kylarkage1119 2 роки тому
One thing I noticed not mentioned is that yes individually your points are correct. The evolution changes to seeing and hearing. How they would get enough food to survive. However as you mentioned the loss of sight is caused by isolation and living entirely in caves. But if to survive they would have to frequently leave the cave then they aren't that isolated. Meaning they would evolve to the point were they have absolutely no sight. Even if they only went out at night at best they would have reduced vision but not necessarily lose all of it. Long story short your point individually are correct and fascinating but when put together they cross each other out. Still love this theory just noticed this wasn't mentioned.

@daniell1483 2 роки тому
The process is still being studied, but there are established terminologies for animals that have adapted to subterranean ecosystems. Troglobites (also troglobiont) are fauna strongly bound to cave systems, whereas troglophiles are animals that act like the creatures in the Descent, which are capable of leaving the cave system but prefer to nest there for whatever reason. And just a small correction, the first movie showed animals that had been hunted by the Descent creatures outside of the cave, before the cast goes into the cave system.

@@terryfuldsgaming7995 Dude, the Cave mentioned in Canada was legitimately discovered like 2 years ago. We do not know the majority of many places in the world, especially in the thundra. The thing of "40 year long generations" may be true for humans like me, but considering the state these guys would be in, those "40 year long generations" would be more like "10 years" at best. Humans haven't had the "40 years generation" thing for that long. Honestly, I am fairly certain 2k years ago, we still had 20 year generations. Honestly, you seem like the type of person who goes "The Earth if flat" because you have read it somewhere and don't take other information in account.
