To be fair that clip is of a Cuban crocodile a fairly small croc. A crocodile of this size wouldn't be able to gallop, it could run a little bit but the bigger the crocodile the slower they are, especially on land. It's actually a problem huge crocs face and why you don't see as many giants out there, if they get too slow the majority of their prey would outrun them and they have to turn to bigger/slower prey, including humans.

[@stingerjohnny9951]

Hey NT, fancy seeing you here, loved the Godzilla Creepypasta narration btw. Quick question, since crocodilians never stop growing, and the larger ones are almost exclusively aquatic so they don’t need to worry about weight, do crocodiles not die of old age, but rather of starvation when they run out of food big enough for them?

[@itsgqmer8401]

@@stingerjohnny9951 from what I know they do die from old age but they don’t stop growing till their dead. Crocodiles can live for a very long time if every thing is right (food, few predators, environment etc) they can live up to 100 years.

Time to go nerdy here. In prehistoric times way before homonids evolved there were big land crocs. They could get the size of real large crocs of today. They had different sized legs though which allowed them to run quite fast. PBS Eons channel has video about them.

[@C.h.r.o.m.e]

As a Australian, this movie still holds up in the top 3 scariest films, just for the simple fact of how real it is and can be. No monsters,aliens,ghosts, killers etc, just a wild animal living.

[@husoldiers2221]

Rogue is actually based off the true events of a giant, male saltwater crocodile named Sweetheart who attacked boats in the late 70s. Although Sweetheart was never known to attack humans, it's scary to know how things would play out had you come in contact with him when in the water.

[@Scar-Predator]

It's also based on a story of 3 boys who went to the Finnis River to get clean after splashing each other with mud all day, getting swept away by the current, noticing something in the water, 2 of them getting up high on a mangrove tree, with the third being face down unmoving in the jaws of a crocodile before it disappeared, and the boys having to stay awake to prevent falling in the water and getting eaten, while the crocodile repeatedly shows up sitting at the bottom. The KZbinr Mr. Ballen goes way more in depth with the story and gives more detail so make sure to check him out if you like the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format.

I've called a support line before. They mostly just keep you engaged in pleasant, friendly conversation while intermittently asking you if you're thinking about harming yourself. Sometimes life is tough and you just need someone you feel safe in unloading your problems on.

[@Alteori]

I've heard of that and I've told my mom to call into one for her depression. My mom had mentioned she wanted to die but she wasn't actually suicidal at least those were her words. She just needed somebody to talk to, but I remember when my mom had done something to me a long time ago and I was in the house alone I was hurting so badly as a kid and the pain was so overwhelming that I took a knife and tried to cut myself. I didn't do it right and I did it across then when I caught myself because of how hard it was to cut through my wrists I dropped the knife and started crying. In that moment I really felt like I wanted to kill myself and the last thing I was thinking was that I should call a hotline and I knew that there were services out there like that. In that moment I just wanted the pain to end and could not think of anything else. I didn't feel suicidal before that point Just in that moment because my mom did so horrible to hurt me that the pain was just immediate but it had been piling on me from staying in that household with her. That was basically the straw that broke the camel's back and I just went for it. Very weird that because of the adrenaline I did not even feel the knife as I was trying to saw through my wrist. I was kind of manic. I was still in my early teens and nobody was home and she had left to go discard my animals which is what drove me over the edge because it's the only thing that I had to hold on to that I loved the most in that house. Had I gone through with it in that moment and done it correctly when I was really trying to take my life I wouldn't be here today. I haven't had those thoughts since and I redirected them to getting out of that house. The point is, it's really awesome that there are these services available to people who might be going down that road to help prevent them, but I can tell you from experience that when you're actually suicidal and in that mental state at that moment you feel it, all the hotlines in the world don't mean jack.

[@SilientShadow]

@@Alteori Oh wow, that's pretty gut-wrenching! It's obvious that you feel a really deep connection with animals, and that sounds like a scene straight out of a horror movie. When I was a child, my parents threatened to sell off my beloved parakeet because I still owed some money to pay off his cage, and just the threat was really upsetting. Lol, I think that was around the time I began saving my money really obsessively, because I never wanted to be strapped for cash again! The best phrase I've ever heard regarding suicide is that it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem. My favorite scene in Cast Away is when Tom Hanks is talking at the end of the movie about how he had become so utterly discouraged with being marooned on his island that he decided to hang himself, but the rope he had made wasn't strong enough to support his weight so he knew he wouldn't even be able to hang himself properly. And from that point on, he decided to "just keep breathing" one day at a time, until the tide brought him something to build his raft with. You need to remember the best times in your life, because it gives you faith that the hard times will pass and the "new best times" that are around the corner will make it all worthwhile.

[@Alteori]

@@SilientShadow YES, permanent solution to a temporary problem. I'm so so glad I didn't manage to do it. I would not have met the love of my life (who coincidentally had a mom that drove him to want to commit suicide too) and I would not have met my dogs. In the end, my mother did not win and I am still here. I told myself after, nobody is worth throwing your life away for unless you choose to do so to save someone who is worth it.

Hey Alteori, good question at 2:45. “Do suicide prevention hot lines work?” It’s a complex one and you’re totally right there are many times where it doesn’t. However depression is different in everyone and for many people it’s having negative thoughts whilst having the awareness that you’re having those negative thoughts, having to keep retelling yourself what’s true, for those people who have conscious awareness of those thoughts whilst they’re happening suicide prevention hotlines are incredibly helpful and save many lives. Thanks for asking, hope this helps. ❤️

[@Alteori]

Thank you for answering my question that does help. I know a lot of many people who knew there was help out there and people tried to help them and they still took their lives. I guess it's better than nothing. After all you can't really make someone want to live unless they want to save themselves.

2:42 I'm not an expert but I'll put my two cents. I believe the whole point of the hotline is help people steer away of those thoughts at the early stages. They get calls from alot of people in different walks of life.... I have to admit, it's gets depression to hear their story, their call for help. While it's not a solution to the problem. It's a step in the right direction. Just having a human being not just hearing you but seeing that you matter. Not pity but empathy. I'm sure there's a bunch of websites where you can learn more and if that is what you wish.

[@Shadednecros]

@@archermon373 Oftentimes, it's due to lack of foresight on the family member's part. It's not a pleasant feeling when you're close to that edge and you reach out to a family member for help, only for them to not take you seriously; or worse, outright act aggressively because they think think you're just wanting attention. Such reactions only serve to push the individual closer to the edge, and if they survive, can cause reluctance to seek help in the future.

I have this film. Got it from Walmart. I really enjoyed it. Watched it multiple times. I also watched the commentary and behind the scenes. There's so much to say. The people were legit on edge because of the real cross shown. The helicopter flying around for the air shots spooked them a fee times. The scene in the quarry, the workers quadruple checked that there were not crocs in the area when neil fell into the water, only to find out one was found a couple miles from there. The the island scenes, the croc was cgi, but they used a diver when it grabbed the dad under water. Even though they made the croc look massive, it's not unusual to see a croc reach comparable lengths. In the den. They mixed cgi with animatronic for the croc, which is why the hand ripping scene looked good. It was a well made film. It was the same director and writers as a film called wolf creek. I saw wolf creek 2 I believe, and that was a gory film. Kinda like the hostile films. The old guy with the ashes in this film was also in the wolf creek films.

Check out a 2008 Australian movie called Black Water, you won’t regret it. Also look up the crocodile it was based on called “Sweetheart”. He was a 17 foot crocodile in 77-79 that attacked people’s boats and boat motors, but never actually killed anyone. But some people got stranded because he chewed up the boat motors. And actually both gators and crocs run at similar speeds of 11-mph, but I think some crocs can accelerate faster. Also, some large American/Nile crocs may run up to 20 mph, which are slimmer in shape. However, salt-waters are almost as stocky as gators with somewhat broader snouts that lead some to wonder if they were actually gators. Even though the mugger croc has a broader snout.

Not gonna lie, when I first watched Black Water as a teen, I thought I was going into a B-Rated monster movie. Instead I went into a very realistic horror drama.

I can relate to your reaction whenever you see a dog in a movie, as someone who has 4 rescues (boxer Cross and 3 EBT) i always want to know the fate of the dog and care more for the dogs welfare than any of the actors 🤣🤣 *Kevin* was the hero of the film!!

[@Alteori]

He really was 😥

[@Captain.AmericaV1]

@@Alteori you ever seen *Marley and me?* It's a film about a dog, it's a bit sad in parts but a great film. Also my four puppas saw your concern for Kevin and sent doggie hugs!!🐕🤗

[@bigboycreams4769]

Audience when human dies: Oh nooo... anyway Audience when dog dies: This is literally the worst thing to ever happen to me. I never understood that way of thinking. I've had plenty of dogs in my lifetime and I've loved them all more than I can express. And it is definitely sad whenever a dog dies in a movie or show or whatever. But come on, why do people need a website to know whether or not the dog ends up dying, it really isn't THAT disturbing. Anyway aside from that, this is probably my favourite monster movie. As an Australian we don't usually get much inclusion in modern media and when we do it's incredibly stereotypical and offensive. This movie doesn't get enough recognition because it's genuinely very good and the characters are all well written and very well acted. Thanks for revewing it and exposing it to a broader audience.

[@GarciaXVLegend_04]

Just saw it on KZbin the other day and thought it was pretty solid surprisingly. The poor dog though :(

[@UnendingNothing]

YES OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS MOVIE FOR AGES!! I watched this when i was younger and I thought it was amazing but I couldn’t find it ever again, hopefully its as good as it was

[@Buddy-Dale]

2:36 well the nsph dont just try to talk down people (tho thats a big part of what they do), theyre also there if anyone needs to talk, whether someone's hesitant to "self harm", having soo-i-sy-dull thoughts, having a mental break down, or just need someone to talk to. ive called them myself late last year for... depressive reasons, and they were very understanding and even offered to dispatch someone to come over to check up & talk to me so I honestly just have nothing but good things to say about them and couldn't recommend them more to people who are going thru some things

33:00 CRAP! The crocodile has "Predator" cloaking tech! It's the only logical explanation for how a multi-ton croc moved without making a sound! :B

[@cyborgparrot1996]

I saw this Movie a few months ago, pretty good Animal Horror Movie. I also recommend this similar Aussie Giant Killer Crocodile Movie from the late 80's called Dark Age (weird name I know) starring John Jarrat of Wolf Creek fame (I meet the guy at a geek convention a few years ago, he's a pretty chill dude), it's not full on horror like Rogue (it's more of an adventure/rescue movie) but it's still pretty good and worth a watch. :)

[@squidwardtenticles1656]

Omg Thanks I tryed to suggest this movie to you for ages. It made sure I never went swimming alone. I traveled Australia as a kid with my mum and sister's. Never saw one that big though. Maybe 5/6 meters long, we called him Toby.

[@UberCoolBen]

The scary thing is that monstrous crocodilians like this used to exist millions of years ago. Purussaurus, Sarchosuchus etc. Would've been amazing to see in person.

[@YourHuckleberry99]

Monstrous Crocs and Gators still do exist. Give em a big enough territory and plenty of prey items, they fuckin grow big man. The one in the film definitely looked like a Purussaurus for sure

[@choekyigyaltsen7579]

Rogue ? Wasn’t there also another movie called lake placid ?

[@Alteori]

yes

[@liamwarner5749]

There was an entire lake Placid series of I think 4 movies plus multiple other crock movies like Primeval.

[@choekyigyaltsen7579]

[@liamwarner5749]

@@choekyigyaltsen7579 There's a lot of scary criters that people think are extinct. Genereally I believe in accepted logic but somtimes at 2 am when the front door decides to close itself (has to be some pressure differential if its not shut properly as it'll sit like that for hours then decide to finally shut properly) and winds blowing outside. I look at the dark apartment and think about how small some of those things were and remember the cat species that had been living next to people in a city for generations with no one noticing and all the wild empty places of the world and I wonder are they really gone?

[@tacocheesecakee]

There’s an older movie similar to this called Blackwater. It’s pretty got the same synopsis but it’s pretty cool. It was a childhood movie of mine

[@antsandmoreaustralia]

It’s funny how salt water crocs can get to 8 meters but none that big exist because they were all killed of by farmers but some are close at 6 metres

[@Central.intelligence.agency1.1]

I’ve called the NSPL. It’s… it’s not always cut and dry when you’re feeling that way. For me personally, I called them because I was seriously thinking of doing it, and that scared me. I wanted SOMEONE to talk me down, to help me get through that moment so that I could tell my family and get some help.

[@grunt1807]

Hey Alteori, There's a sci-fi movie from the '80s called "Enemy Mine". My mother passed away recently and it was one of her favorites. Add it to your list of future movies to watch.

[@drinkthatsoup]

Suicide hotlines are a critical service for suicide ideation. Often times these people will feel utterly hopeless and see no way out - but a part of themselves deep inside is looking for a reason to hope again. That's why isolation for someone who is struggling is so dangerous; Isolation for someone going through suicide ideation can drive people to suicide but talking to someone can help them find some hope again. Many people end up calling these hotline because at that point you might as well - there isn't much left to lose. A professional can prob explain this better but hope this made sense. Writing this makes me sad remembering that suicide is often a choice people make they feel like they have no choice... :'(

[@electriczombie2573]

love this movie, also your voice is so nice and easy to listen to, great video :)

Primeval scared the shit out of me when I was a kid because it was the first time I saw a giant croc literally chase after someone! Also pretty brutal scenes.

[@mastergamerleafer]

I remember that show and those blind creatures gave me nightmares

[@Incognito_Blazer]

@@mastergamerleafer Oof yeah as someone who knows both what the OP and you are talking about, those are two different 'Primeval's lol One is a pretty decent movie about a giant croc in Africa based off Gustave, a legit giant man eating croc And the one you're thinking of is a pretty good show about time space anomalies causing creatures from the past, future, and alternate timelines to appear in modern day, with an entire organization built for finding the anomalies and creatures to stop them from hurting the public and also to find a way to predict and eventually stop the anomalies Tbh kinda sad the Primeval show didn't get more seasons
