[@ulrichs.3228]

In a way, this sounds like every Friday night on every "dating" platform ever. With Daleks.

[@Tynach]

YES! YEESSS!!! FINALLY someone understands the concept of an extradimensional alien's experiences! They don't perceive the world the way we do, and cannot search for the elements themselves, but they CAN perform operations on our physical world, hence needing someone to gather the materials and tell them where the materials are gathered. The consistency is perfect. There could be more detail added (like specifying what the safe distance is, or giving detailed instructions for how to specify the precise location and dimensions of the procured metallic elements to minimize damage to surrounding areas and maximize elemental purity), but overall this was SIGNIFICANTLY better than how such things are usually portrayed. I will say, however, that 'OUR LOCATION CANNOT BE EXPRESSED IN TWO DIMENSIONAL SYMBOLS' is factually incorrect. You must simply make use of some form of subspace, which is a the mapping of an n-dimensional figure using fewer than n dimensions. For example, saved on a storage drive of some sort, this video is a 1-dimensional mapping of a three dimensional construct (2D images, plus time to make them move, 3D total). It's 1-dimensional because it is a string of bits; 1s and 0s. A computer file containing 3D model data, bone and armature rigging data for that 3D model, and animation data for the rig, is a 1D representation of 4D data. It would have been more accurate to say that ALANHUMID lacked the necessary knowledge and vocabulary to express this information. In later videos using this method, you could still say that it was believed that English lacked the vocabulary necessary, and it was likely that human languages in general lacked the ability. Of course, the way you portrayed the alien mind (or minds? The concept doesn't necessarily map well) is still perfectly consistent, you just had that one piece of information incorrect, and honestly it's not something that most people think about enough to get into this sort of detail.

[@AtomicShrimp]

One thing to bear in mind is that we have no idea whether the alien entity was being completely straightforward and honest.

[@AtomicShrimp]

Also, have you considered a scenario where, to the alien entities, the concepts of discrette, countable dimensions, divided only into just 'spacelike' and 'timelike' varieties might be so puny and incomplete that it is nearly impossible to use

[@Tynach]

​@@AtomicShrimp In mathematics, there are countable infinities, and uncountable infinities. Things like fractions are countably infinite, while real numbers in general are uncountably infinite. When speaking of multiple dimensions, the specification of a specific dimension can be - and in some cases Must be - made using uncountably infinite combinations, but the number of dimensions being discussed will always be a subset of a countably infinite set of dimensions. If they were capable of controlling the mind of a human and studying our existence through that host, then they already have a specification for at least our spatial and time dimensions. While to them these may seem like arbitrary dimensions (as arbitrary as 'up', 'left', or 'down' are to us, as they depend on our orientation relative to each other ('your left, my right', for a simple example)), they will have enough information to extrapolate more concrete meanings such as 'north' and 'east' if we were to use such terms. That is, they can use their knowledge to extract a concrete meaning from our less concrete terms. I have spent way too much time thinking about these things.

[@Tynach]

Of course, you might also run into a situation where an infinite set of dimensions is used. These are still countably infinite though, and probably do not apply to us humans directly. It might apply to their machinations with which they communicate with us, but that should be handled entirely on their end.

[@Tynach]

And... Honestly, I can totally see the alien trying to just get us humans to accept the free perpetual motion machines being offered to us (payment via angular momentum and so on). Honestly, anyone who actually understands what's being offered would jump on such an opportunity immediately (assuming it was real).

I have to say, this is my favourite scambaiting video so far since I'm a fan of science fiction and aliens. Edit: That voice though... amazing! XD "WE REQUIRE METALLIC ELEMENTS..." "... TO MANIFEST OURSELVES INTO YOUR WORLD."

[@bheppes]

I loved the "Our purpose is to serve Humans" .... "It's a cookbook..."

[@darronb248]

When they say their locus cannot be described in your language say " say your location in your language" or "what planet are you from"

[@martinrose2668]

The narration and speech of the alien entities is so much fun I would read a story like that

[@Nevertoosweet2eat]

Great! Really enjoyed this. So the cook book, is it "How to Serve Man"? A Twilight Zone reference?😂😂😂👍👍👍

[@gary24fan]

When a Doctor Who alien encounter meets Atomic Shrimp's scambaiting activities. Bloody well done mate!

[@OllieSMH]

I’m pretty drunk right now since it’s 2AM here (drink responsibly) but that voice and this premise is so funny right now and I’m laughing so hard 🤣🤣

[@omikronweapon]

"Im drunk lol. Senpai notice me"

[@nessamillikan6247]

False, you're not drunk. You misspelled nothing and use your parentheses correctly.

[@kbjerke]

@@nessamillikan6247 Ah, but he missed some punctuation. (Period, comma...) So, I believe him! :-)

[@nessamillikan6247]

@@kbjerke That's fair. But the properly placed apostrophes in OP's contractions would trip anyone up with a BAC over the legal limit. Maybe it's excellent fine motor skills.

[@OllieSMH]

Ahaha I was drunk 🤣 I just have good typing skills for whatever reason, and autocorrect is helpful. Anyways, good morning how’re you guys? 🤣

[@daveadriffield7296]

I knew it. John Warosa is an alien.

[@PandemoniumMeltDown]

The worst kind: the Australien kind (JuiceMedia)

[@Grey_Warden_Invasion]

Somehow with a voice like that I expected the alien to open each conversation with, "I am the harbinger of your destruction."

[@TheAdvertisement]

This is possibly the funniest scam I have ever seen. Scammers as they are, they have an amazing sense of humor.

[@eccentriastes6273]

This has to be one of my favorite scambaiting videos ever. The alien replies had me rolling.

[@retrodoodmanx7161]

it is fun. make more of this alien kind of conversation, human.

[@SeenAGreatLight]

Atomic Shrimp: "I would like to order *an entire cubic meter of **_platinum,_* please." Scammer: "cool, where r u"

[@divadollfaceable]

Absolutely hilarious! Thank you so much for the laughs!!!

[@theneoreformationist]

WE PREVIOUSLY ATTEMPTED TO PROCURE BARS OF METALLIC ELEMENTS, ONLY TO DISCOVER THE BOX WAS MISLABELED AND HAD CURRENCY INSIDE.

[@Amethystar]

Absolutely loved this! Definitely a fun little experiment, and in spite of the silliness, still a good lesson in questioning what you see on the internet!

[@icantthinkofanything798]

A Bitcoin scammer and an alien in a human host would be an INCREDIBLE improv skit

[@nicocchi]

The funny part is that you asked for a crazy expensive amount of mats and the scammer still asked for just $500. If the trade did actually happen by some miracle, the only one getting scammed is themselves lol

[@Bloodray19]

I love this way too much. We need more aliens contacting scammers

[@johnnyboy95101]

It took me so long to watch this from physically cringing at these scammers responses, but it was worth it to see them try.

[@akirapink]

i love that they drop the ominous foreboding act to ask “what is 100$. explain”

[@paulolima6407]

Masterpiece. Very creative and well written. I loved it.

[@Indiskret1]

I hope I get another one of those KZbin questions "What did you think of this video?". Instant 10 out of 5! 4th re-watch, still laughing, cats staring. 🐱‍🚀👀

[@lutherhrgrvsbf]

Best video I’ve ever seen, a solid 5 out of 7

[@PandemoniumMeltDown]

@@lutherhrgrvsbf 5th, I agree.

[@Otonio_Bruno]

"IT'S A COOK BOOK" Atomic Shrimp just pulled out one of the best sci-fi references of all times, The Twilight Zone is such a amazing show.

[@QuadteRr]

This is much better than nonsense generation imo. I rewatch the scambaiting series all the time, but skip all the hacker stuff because nonsense gets old pretty fast, and I just lose the thread of conversation. It may work to annoy scammers, but I get affected by that too. This video, however, is really fun, because it is ridiculous but fully comprehensible. The "S" sound being longer at the end of words really adds to the probably malevolent nature of the alien.

[@Crackpot_Astronaut]

"THIS HOST REQUIRES A PERIOD OF DORMANCY" - That's a brilliant way of saying "I'm tired, I've got to go to bed" 😆 After checking the times, I got a great chuckle. Very clever.🤘
