Exploring the World of North American Cryptids | rosiebellmoo Reacts to Big Tugg

[@OurHeroXero]

I was picking up a pre-order from Gamestop late one day and another customer brought up the conversation of cryptids (they never used the word, but they were talking about these unscientifically-proven beasties). At one point, they mention fairies as being real, gives a description, and then shows a photo on their phone...the photo did _not_ match their verbal description.

[@kevinnorwood8782]

The woman who allegedly gave birth to the Jersey Devil was Mother Leeds. According to the story, when it was time to give birth to her 13th child, under the pain of labor, she cried out "Let it be a devil!". And the baby was initially born as a normal human baby, but then it transformed into a monster right in front of them.

[@AngiraBlu96]

*Rebekah* Leeds, if I recall correctly.

[@ultimateninjaboi]

ok. Jersey native here. 1909. it was MUCH more than 30 sightings, but that number is from like... one town, specifically. we're talking like over 100 sightings in central Jersey OVER THE COURSE OF A WEEK OR TWO. Including official police reports of a whole ass squad of officers firing on the thing, among others. so not even just random people out in the woods. schools were closed in a few towns. local law enforcement and military were just keeping a presence on public transport (i wanna say that was in Newark, specifically) to help keep a level of calm, and to encourage people to keep going about their days. was absolutely nuts.

The dog man. Send Bao. Dog man will run for his life.

[@edmardisla8492]

xDDDDD

[@Dracoward]

Mothman is the Absol of the human world. Change my mind.

[@grindingtheaxe3027]

Batsquatch is just a regular sasquatch that lost it's parents on the way home from the theater.

Fun Fact : cows kill more people a year than sharks cows being 22 people a year vs sharks being 6 people the reason we fear shark more is largely due to holliwood movies.

[@Kirdex90]

Moral of the story, don’t swim with cows.

[@TheZephyrsWind]

My old mom (she's 70) was perfectly ok with getting in the water at the beach till she saw Jaws when she was young way back in the stone age. I'm much more afraid of jellyfish than anything else after some got me really bad on my legs and feet. My skin sucks since I'm a... A ginger, plus I've A skin disease, so the stings had a much worse effect on me. I legit thought something bit my feet off & that I was running back to the beach on stumps.

[@TheZephyrsWind]

@Kirdex90 True. Dang those stupid cows ruining my beach trips!

[@Smitty1Werbenjägermanjensen]

Cows are a**holes though so even if there wasn’t more close human interaction with cows than sharks it would still make sense. Also a little note that is only an estimate based on official reported shark kills, meaning it’s more than likely higher since they can’t tell when a shark shallows a person unless it’s by chance like that missing Argentina man Deigo something I think it was like this year or last year. Or the body they found in a tiger shark in I think ‘95 again caught by chance and found the body which to my knowledge is still unidentified. In conclusion don’t screw with animals or think they won’t because they can and will.

[@pureheartspassionarts]

In their defense, we eat more cows than sharks, so it makes sense that they want to kill us more. XD "You want the flank, you get the shank, moo!"

[@ianswinford5570]

Guy in video: talking about Loveland Frog using a magic wand. Me: You’re a wizard, Froggy!

[@simonlasneau9575]

Its my Everquest character!

[@sharpshooter33]

The moth man is just an incredably unsuccessful super hero. One day he will just give up and call the cops instead of trying to solve the problem himself

[@akirisa_uwu1769]

You guys might know the little known fact that "the mitochondria is the power house of the cell" but did you know that the mitochondria is the result of a failed predation attempt?

[@hellomadetScuffed]

Everyone mentions that the mitochondria is the power house of the cell, but no one talks about the fact that mitochondria are a cell organelle 🤷‍♂

[@p51mustangs39]

In south Louisiana we have the Rougeaux. It's a cross between a werewolf, Bigfoot, and a swamp man.

[@AngiraBlu96]

It’s basically a bayou version of the French Loup-Garou, which literally just means “man-wolf,” if I remember correctly.

[@bobthejester3105]

Rosie. Do NOT the batsquatch

[@johnj.spurgin7037]

Honestly, knowing how genetics work, The Jeresy Devil is the more horrifying.

[@mileaminute3498]

My brother has this picture of the frogman showing him crossing the street, and grabbing at a tree on the side of the road like he’s about to climb it. The picture is an old looking pencil sketch, and the the reason my brother loves it so much is because the artist gave the frogman a big, and bizarrely realistic hairy ass.

[@PowerSynopsis]

I was just watching some Big Tugg then I saw that Rosie posted this up. How fortuitous!

[@Red-iu6wu]

that's weird. i was reading about Canadian mythical/cryptid creatures last night. there are a lot of lake creatures and i guess that makes sense considering all the lakes. also i had a pet moth at one point. it was green and i was like 10ish. it was massive. i guess it flew into a camp fire and lost half a wing so i fed it and kept it. it liked to stay on my shoulder and when i took it off it would flap trying to get back to me. too bad they dont live long

[@ReticentSparrow]

I think my man here double-dipped. "The Beast of Bray Road" always comes up when I look up Michigan Dogman.

[@garystorey6472]

Yeah, but they are not the same. The Beast of Bray Road is from Wisconsin. Specifically, Bray Road is right outside of Elkhorn Wisconsin. Technically, if anything, he double dipped in a sense of using 2 Cryptids from Wisconsin. The other is the Hodag, which is from Rhinelander Wisconsin.

[@garystorey6472]

However, the reason that the Michigan Dog man is sometimes linked with the Beast of Bray road comes down to the fact that one of the leading Cyrptozologist/Paranormal hunter that wrote the book about the Michigan Dog man, Has written alot of Books main one being on the Wendigo, but others about paranormal places around the midwest. One of those books being the Wisconsin Road Guide to Haunted Locations and the Wisconsin Road Guide to Mysterious Creatures.

[@garystorey6472]

His name is Chad Lewis he is from Eau Claire Wisconsin and was also featured on a couple of episodes of Monsters and Mysteries in America, which used to be on the History channel and Travel channel from time to time.

[@ReticentSparrow]

@@garystorey6472 Hey, thanks for the info! I'll go check the creatures and that book out when I get the chance.

[@garystorey6472]

@ReticentSparrow I hope you do they are good reads. Unlike a lot of other writes, Chad Lewis also talks to locals, and he conducts actual, like investigations about the subject he is writing about. In my opinion, he is better than some other Cryptozological writers who just dont take the time to learn about the story of the subjects they are writing about.

[@Tanx33]

12:00 Run Fool by Rodney Barnes had a podcast episode about this creature or something just like it that was originally taken down with dynamite the same way a few weeks back. made it seem way more realistic and threatening than just a tree whale. of course all his podcast are about NA legends and myths and always sound more frightening than any of the crypto enthusiasts do when talking about this stuff.

[@Rosiebellmoo]

Ooo that sounds like an interesting podcast !

[@AngiraBlu96]

As an Okie, when I discovered Animal Planet’s Lost Tapes (*during my middle/high school days of extensive research on the creature I fear more than snakes, my own mother, God Himself, and the Devil himself, the Chupacabra 🔥😱🔥*) and discovered the likes of the horse-sized Oklahoma Octopus, I was understandably shook. As far as I know, the sightings/human disappearances w/ 0 bodies found have been in Lakes Thunderbird, Tenkiller, and Oolagah (*≈155mi SW, ≈135mi SW, and ≈35mi SE of Bartlesville*). ….. Yeah, now you see why I *ACTIVELY AVOID* those 3 lakes. The Jersey Devil is why I wanna avoid the Pine Barrens of New Jersey and my 2nd most feared creature. It went from normal baby of the Leeds family to horse/dragon demon w/ an ungodly shriek that I can only describe as the fusion of a woman’s scream, an elk’s bugling, and a table saw and I am scared 💩less.

[@Hrmagate]

Pretty cool listening to some actual real life folklore. Even if some of it is completely ridiculous sounding, lol. My favorite would have to be the land whale just for how absolutely derpy it sounds.

[@gin3648]

Platypus meantioned, Australia also has some cool cryptids like the bunyip and yowee, also the dropbear, but that's mainly to scare tourists. Wild koalas arent exactly friendly and also have chlamydia, so... do not (befriend) the koala.

[@TheZephyrsWind]

Dropbear? That conjures up some hilarious mental images lol.

[@unboundvision]

I always did love our cryptids. They're a lot more fun and wacky compared to cryptids in other places like Europe. There's just something special about North American cryptids.

[@mizleytoonz7289]

Here in California, we only got (to my knowledge) the night crawlers, since the first sighting of them is Fresno, California. I could be wrong, so anyone correct me, please. Also, it's nice to catch a Rosie vid. Cute cow!

[@unknown20005]

i was gonna say how do they know that it wasn’t just a furry wearing their fursona

[@Trivial_Whim]

That "what if he didn't do it" and "he was framed" about the wampus is literally what happened to the Tasmanian Tiger. It got blamed for Tasmanian Devils killing sheep.

[@spidiccus8561]

My favorites are the nightcrawlers and the frog man, they're both silly creatures

[@hibouowll7468]

Maybe the dog-wolf things that you called werewolf couldn't turn back into a human form. Or, they thought that if they called it a werewolf, people would not pay enough attention to it.

[@Dracoward]

Honestly thought he'd mention the Flatwoods monster at the end segment, because I've seen Google results, the way people interpret it in art definitely FlatWOULD.😅

[@Rosiebellmoo]

Omg bwahahaa 🤣

[@Peppershark85]

I’ve actually heard about the Slide-Rock Bolter from the Distractible podcast.

[@V-Gaz-f1m]

XD the loveland frogman just sounds like a scooby doo villain

[@garm352]

I always enjoy your commentary on videos

[@MoteofLobross]

Those Fresno monsters look like someone got a pair of stilts and a pair of super large sweatpants and pulled them all the way up.

[@procow2274]

I lived in Louisiana back in the day where panthers arnt supposed to exist but everyone there knows about them and wont bat a eye if you mention them.

[@p51mustangs39]

My mom used to tell me that LSU dropped off panthers and a bear on their property. They saw the panther a few times but it mostly stayed away from them.

[@lul9435]

The frog man looks like something put of final fantasy 😏

[@williamoneal4112]

We have a few cryptids from Alabama, but my favorite is this one(and I'll include the most detailed description I found): Yunwi-Tsunsdi are a race of small humanoid nature spirits, sometimes referred to in English as "dwarves" or "fairies." They are usually invisible but sometimes reveal themselves as miniature child-sized people. Yunwi Tsunsdi are benevolent creatures who frequently help humans in Cherokee stories, but they have magical powers and are said to harshly punish people who are disrespectful or aggressive towards them. Their name literally means "little people." Some non-Cherokee people refer to them by the nickname "Yunwi" or "Yumwi," but that is an error... yvwi alone just means "person" in Cherokee.

[@RimuruTempestAt]

4:26 the bones on the left is a real thing it was a wooly (I KNOW IT'S NOT SPELT LIKE THAT) rino but not all the bones or just the people who was like doing dino stuff messed up and it was in Australia I think

[@dannore8077]

The Beast of bray road isn't a werewolf but is in fact a wereyote

[@granvilledavid7814]

16:29 looks like if a pug fused with Oscar the grouch then became part dragon for some reason.

[@deathssinner]

The hodag is actually an upper peninsula Michigan cryptid.

[@NocnaGlizda]

03:48 - This gentleman looks like Walt “Stop killing my great company” Disney. Do a reaction to “all species of sharks” sometime. Surprise guaranteed. There are tons of them and they are incredibly diverse. 12:20 - This story is a famous fairy tale from long ago from my country. It is the story of the dragon and the shoemaker Dratewka. No one could defeat the dragon so the shoemaker used a dead sheep and stuffed it with something explosive. Then the dragon died. 26:50 - They bought the biggest possible camera to mount (because it's the USA) and this is the image quality? Excellent. 29:12 - yeahhh, Octopuses don't have tentacles, they have legs. But it's a classic if you know these animals from drawings, you perverts!

[@Cjp171]

Biblically accurate Batman

[@Jalandarah]

19:52 is from the movie Xtro, which is definitely one of the movies that ever was...

[@greed94]

Tugg is love Tugg is life

[@procow2274]

If you really want to know more about some of them Bob gymlan does videos about a lot of these including a interesting one about the dog man

[@OOTHG]

Not the mountain fish whale giving the hills that hawk tuah

[@jonnysimpson093]

BIG TUUUUGGG!!! I love him so much

[@Trivial_Whim]

Werewolves are a European thing. Clearly this American cryptid has to be fresh and unique!

[@johngeo5816]

24:15 rose thats what an omen is.

[@sci-fiaction6576]

All these cryptids came from Uncle Stan’s ideas from Gravity Falls

[@OccamsNinja]

HEY! He left out the One True King of Cryptids. There's a great video on it by this adorable vtuber, who kinda reminds me of you Rosie. I think you'd like it

[@knowlegeableknight]

if you really want to learn about cyrtids watch the show mountain monsters. but I must warn you never watch alone.

[@dragon2218]

Rosie is *my* favorite cryptid

[@Trivial_Whim]

Gilled deer were also found to be real.

[@alexanderjoe4316]

I'd go for mothman, he looks like he cuddles well!

[@DanielJ_Mart]

I’m not gunna lie.Bat Squatch is built like a tank. If someone did want to get with it… I ain’t blaming them

[@gamemasternintendoo]

26:54 Looks like someone’s skinny jeans escaped from captivity. 😊

[@ianswinford5570]

20:39 - Best moment of this video! (XD

[@LuciferAMidnight]

I dated a land whale once… not from Colorado though, she was Texan 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TheZephyrsWind]

What cryptid would you choose to be real?

[@pizzaboy3332]

American cryptids, no mention of wendigo

[@legendarywolfgeneral5572]

Ngl, would the mothman and batsquatch

[@joeramsay6269]

So fun fact: turns out the Loch Ness monster is fake, the people there fabricated everything in regards to it

[@AiriMagePRISM]

TUGGLETS ASSEMBLE!!!!

[@222aztek]

I don't know how I feel about this video.

[@jademirror]

Upwards of 30% can be explained by excessively hairy people or deformities in nature.

[@grimmtide7612]

Mothman is irl absol lol

[@Buzzfer]

The huak tuah fish :O

[@ndr2q]

Such cute brrrr cow ❤

[@MrAceSilent]

Love your videos

[@AnimeArtistV]

Great video 😊

[@joshritz7067]

Ok so werewolves transform into the wolf form from the human and generally considered malicious. Dogmen are in that form all the time and not considered any more evil than any other large predator.

[@joshritz7067]

There is no talk of Bat-squatch here. But we do have the Mogollon (Moh.gee.yon) Monster. That one people described as basically the mutated bears from Fallout, but before Fallout was a franchise. Then the Bigfoot fanatics got involved and suddenly it's just another Bigfoot cryptid

[@plotholedetective4166]

I do not like scp but I do like mythology so..... Fine

[@nicholasdonohue7936]

People who truly believe these types of things actually exist blow my mind.

[@Guardian-of-Light137]

Someone made a comment once that said. Even if they were real so what? Scientists will discover them, slap a name on em, and then they'll just be another animal, like all the others. I don't believe in some of the more ridiculous ones that people have come up with. But I do wonder how many of the more plausible ones are real. Or at least an animal that is very close to the description that someone might have just stretched the facts on, or just got things wrong.

There's so many people gay for the mothman.... I know this because I am one of those people... god give me a seven foot tall moth any day

[@jacobcrowder4920]

What would you call a furry that is a frog I doubt you can call them as scaly why I say that it makes sense for scaly that it's a reptile or a dragon and frogs are not reptiles they're at Vivian's when it makes sense instead to call them a slimy?🤔🤔🤔😃🫠
