love that the "alaska triangle" just comprises of like 70-80 percent of the state, which is fucking huge by the way "why do so many people going missing in the alaska triangle?" Because its a massive area, statistically speaking the greater an area the more people there are that go missing which just sums up these shows in a nutshell, the premise always comes back to knowing nothing about statistics or basica math

[@Neockoen]

They should just make a galactic triangle that encompasses the entire milky way and introduce it with lines like: “every human that has ever existed disappeared in this triangle”

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

It's also a frozen death scape for 9 months out of the year north of Juneau, and most of it is remote, treacherous, and full of blind creVASSEs that can collapse and swallow you whole in the snow barrens.

​@@Neockoen You're saying this like other people have gone missing in the edge of the galaxy, i think just the Earth is fine for now

Honestly we should put a triangle on earth 100% of disappearances happen there and it's sketchy....

[@Chewbaccafruit]

I'm pretty darn sure the aurora borealis affects people's behavior. Namely, the presence of the aurora borealis makes people much more likely to go outside and watch the aurora borealis.

​@@gankhef5564I think Billiam just got bored of the show's nonsense and imagined a more interesting reality show based of what few real events they could be find in between the random insanity.

[@rikhuravidansker]

"Gnomes" in folklore referred to the earth elementals of Paracelsus, and thus have more in common with naiads (freshwater nymphs who were water elementals), undines (air elementals: female ones were sylphs), and salamanders (fire elementals which included newts and dragons, crocodiles being considered a form of dragon: salamanders were associated with angels): gnomes looked like humans made of vegetation and wood, whilst the garden gnome is the same as the Hudrefolk of Scandinavian and Germanophone folklore, the Hudrefolk comprising elves, trolls, and the water-spirits called nisse. Since elves were tall in folklore, garden gnomes and Christmas elves are actually nisse and trolls.

It was never really good history. Even from the start it made shows on a low budget and a lot of corners were cut. But it did go up sharply in ratings by embracing reality TV and woo.

[@rikhuravidansker]

@@vylbird8014 All television is low-budget, with the exception of "Avatar: the Last Airbender," "Star Trek: Discovery," and "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds," all of which were medium-budget. "Rings of Power" is high-budget, but looks awful because of the high frame rate. I have mentioned in another comment in this section that it only talked about certain parts of history, nearly all American (the rest being Christian). I forgot it talked about cryptoarchaeology in "The Mysterious Origins of Man" and various pseudoscience in "Encounters with the Unexplained" (which was reformatted in a half-hour format as "Xtreme Mysteries"), both of which only talked about the Middle East when it came to history (the exception was Atlantis-related, thus talking about the Neolithic).

They are just like us in a way, and if you're nice to them they'll help you and if you're an asshole they'll cause problems for you.

[@GhostsGraveyard]

It's always extremely funny to me how they'll go on these shows talking about humanoid creatures that would probably also have somewhat human intelligence, and then proceed to try and hunt them like normal animals. If it's smart enough to make and wear clothes, it doesn't want your floor meat.

They have the Wildman and Bushman in Alaska, not Sasquatch or Bigfoot: Alaska also has serpent-whales and indeed the Thunderbird. Nonetheless, as an atheist skeptic these stories are just the result of folk memory.

[@i.m.evilhomer5084]

Come to think of it... Alaska is home to a large population of semi-bipedal furry creatures known as bears. They do have brown & white fur like bigfeet & yetis. Could there be a connection? I would say yes, but history channel says otherwise.

[@rikhuravidansker]

@@i.m.evilhomer5084 In folklore, Yetis were not white: the idea of them being white comes from Ivan Sanderson thinking the dzu-teh or Tibetan brown bear was a Yeti legend, and the pseudoscientists and media parroted him, the media via the Rankin-Bass shorts.

The team finds out that her attacks coincide with Salmon Spawning Seasons (try saying that 10 times fast), and realize the top month is right that week (what a coincidence). So Jax and Ken come up with an idea to try and attract the fish woman… In Jax’s words, “We’re gonna need some chum.” They end up going night-hunting, with a chum bait made of salmon (and some of Jax’s donated blood).

As someone who has live in alaska for almost 20 years. I've never seen anything remotely supernatural. I've gone hunting, camping, and on many other adventures in the woods. Nothing. The reason alaska is so dangerous is because of alaskans, the wildlife, and the environment. A lot of alaskans are violent drunks with little to no regard for women. Most of the missing people are from them or the many active criminal elements. Alaska has a relatively high level of violent crime and there's miles and miles of uninhibited land that are great for disappearing anything. Then there's the wildlife. Everything up here bigger than a dog can and will kill you. Also alot of people have an idea of a moose as a little deer like animal. It is not. It is a Ford F-250 wrapped in fur with a big rambar on the front and a kick that can kill instantly. Finally there's the land itself. Even in warm months being stupid or even just taking a wrong step in the wrong place can and will end you. Maybe there is some kind of ghosts or goblins or bigfeet, in alaska but the real problem is the prevalence of violence, crime, and corruption. But anyways that's my piece.

Almost all First Nation cultures have stories about various creatures that will lure children away and kidnap them as well as monsters hiding in the bush/forest/snow/mountains etc. It basically is a way to a. discourage kids from wandering off from the group and b. provide an explanation for when kids did wonder off and disappear (stories help in making sense of tragedy). Also dude saw a woman looking unhappy on a night time hike who didn't respond to him when he greeted her? Gee I wonder why a lone woman whose hike has gone later than planned after the sun went down might be rushing back, look unhappy and not want to talk to the random dude she doesn't know.

Not just first nations. That's common in every culture in the world since the beginning of humanity.

Torngarsuk is a bear god of the underworld and fishing who only has one arm, and it's a human one.

[@forbush99]

Loved your version of Cats In The Cradle. Keep up the good work!

[@liamconnolly6255]

The movie the guy was in is called "new world order" c movie at best. I watched it 4 years ago and somehow knew right away what movie it was.

[@jinxyhexus]

Man this video was entertaining to watch, and I love the 'I Married a Witch' poster on your wall! Always a good time when a Billiam vid pops up. :)

[@Poison_Paradise]

I truly love your longform content, but a nice under 30 minute video is a real good refresher; thank you Billiam!

[@LunaMothWings]

From the UK I think you'd get a real kick out of 'Most Haunted'! One of their psychics even got caught making things up and they carried on! Sadly I don't think they had any bear ghosts but plenty of old 'famous' people noone knew

[@scottcripps3029]

I swear billiam is the most underrated channel on you tube it deserves everyone's love

[@infamous-riv3ra36]

Missed an opportunity to make an Alaskan bull worm joke in the beginning

[@alyssajakielek687]

YES!! FINALLY!! No one so far has really acknowledged how weird and hilarious this series is

[@MarzieMalfoy]

I love what you done to that song! It really fits! 😂

[@theviking1359]

I was just thinking I haven’t heard from this channel in a while. Welcome back.

[@finnhaverkamp]

Is there a vampire one? Because 30 Days of Night is such a great concept, and you might as well steal it if you're a Hollywood producer

Gnomes in Alaska. People from Nome, Alaska: You rang?
