1. WOW!

2. Crazy that this doesn’t have more views as of yet.

3. PLEASEEE make a cave wyrm entry! ❤

4. Watching this as I am treating my ear fungus. Hope it doesn’t take over and end the world 🙂

5. Dude, u will forever be my background noise when picnicking by myself in my local cemetery

6. Slayyyyyyyy

7. You know since you did a video on centaur and minotaur how about one on the blemmyes?

8. Absolutely one of the best alien/zombies in all of fiction. REALLY hope they do more with the flood in a game/movie/(NOT LIVE ACTION) TV-show

9. " unity no matter the cost" * bill Wurt's voice* "you could make a religion out of that" oh wait wrong franchise never mind XD

10. Can you do a video about ghoul biology?

11. The biology of The Thing would be great

12. When Dead Space meets the Thing?

13. Honestly, if you wanted to do a continuation of this and expound even more on this, Id get into contact with Hidden Xperia, hes at the forefront of Halo content creators and is pretty much a walking encylopedia on the Flood.

14. I don't believe the precursors had designed the food. My understanding was that the dust had become corrupted over time.

15. Moral of the story, Don't snort gods ashes.

16. Plz do the swan lake monster

17. Another idea that could be interesting for the monster ecology is a Jorogumo from Japanese mythology.
    For anyone who doesn’t know, they’re a yokai which, similar to a lot of creatures, has the top half of a human and the bottom half of another animal. In this case, a giant orbweaver spider.
    Sometimes this can vary but that’s the common idea.

    I’d love to see what you’d done up with for it, especially after your episodes on mermaids and sirens.

    Obviously though, it’s up to you.

18. TEN HOURS ONLY 5k VIEWS?!? YOU NEED TO POST MORE CONSISTENTLY AND MORE OFTEN OR YOU’LL DIE LIKE THE OTHER CHANNELS

19. Maybe you can also do the Necromorphs from Dead space. The rabbit hole you can go down with that.

20. Another point to add: Sergeant Johnson managed to outright resist the flood because of the treatments he received during the ORION program, which was the precursor of the SPARTAN-II program of the UNSC to create super soldiers (the II is in honor of all those who died during the ORION program). Johnson also kept some dead Flood cells in him which actually granted him regenerative abilities.

21. Great Video

22. I hope we get more videos exploring biology in other media, not just cryptids

23. Thank you so much sharing honestly that it's a compilation!
    But in all honesty… I completely forgot you uploaded it or whether I watch or not so…
    I will watch the compilation all the way through for a reminder, lol.
    Frankly I respect it a lot when YouTubers share when something is a compilation (reuploaded mash up)

24. This is awesome, if you're tackling lore from video games, might I suggest the Elder Scrolls universe? It's my favourite lore from media, and there's a wealth of monsters, shapeshifters and intriguing gods. I do love the Halo lore as well. It's incredible that you were able to travel so far with today's technology.

    Alternatively, if you are still entertaining monsters from myths and ancient religions, Celtic, Slavic and even old Christian lore has some incredible creatures to 'pick apart'.

    I'm really glad this channel exists, you're doing incredible work entertaining and informing simultaneously.

25. Biologically of the Yautja would be awesome if you do more aliens

26. Still no explanation as to how the flood subverts the laws of thermodynamics

27. Can you do Kitsune biology next? Although I personally don’t believe land-dwelling shapeshifters exist, it would be interesting to see you try and explain that aspect of the legend

28. So i guess you can say….the FSC ”floods" the immune system 🤭🤭

29. You should do the biology of a dhampir. They're half human half vampires. They're born from a human parent and a vampire parent.

30. "Homjiminy"

31. Actually the real terrifying thing is that the host doesn't lose its intelligence, in the Flood novel there is a chapter of an infected marine and his consciousness is pushed aside as the Flood controls his body

32. Henry Viley, in his fan-fiction "Premiseverse," suggests that the Volus species from the Mass Effect universe was engineered in prehistory to possess cellular and biological traits radically different from other creatures, with a native biosphere incredibly atypical—specifically to hinder the Reaper species' ability to biologically assimilate them. He further proposes that Volus are prodigiously strong and lethally effective in battle if in their native pressure, gravity, and atmospheric conditions. I wonder how the Volus would fare against the Flood. I prefer the Forerunner terminology for the Flood. The Forerunner word for them would translate into English as "the Thinking Dead," and I see in that a different type of warning, a spiritual one.

33. This sounds oddly like the script from a bigger YouTuber I watched a while ago. The beginning 5 minutes was pretty much the same as that one…

34. Yippeeeee

35. I'd love to see your work published by Chaosium or a third-party editor as a supplement to CoC 7E.

36. 343's retcon mentioned, unsubed

37. Kinda like the divoc maxxine

38. I mean, technically speaking, a cave full of these things COULD be considered a strategic weapons cache… Though the lack of control over the scale of the destruction would be a slight issue. 😂

39. @ThoughtPotato can you do an video on the Rage Virus from 28 Days Later please?

40. "The earth will end only when God declares it's time to be over. Man will not destroy this earth. This earth will not be destroyed by a flood."

    – John Shimkus

41. I think it could be cool if you tried your hand at The Thing from John Carpenter. Though, it may prove tricky, given how little we know about it.

42. A nice change from the cryptids. Love the biological horror.

43. How about Bigfoot biology?

44. i love the videos man, please keep them up, you deserve more recognition, all your videos are super fascinating to me

45. Do Spartans, elites and all the halo species

46. Hitting thought potato 10 minutes after new drop? Were so back

47. Floods when they effect bodies of other aliens are smexy…hmmh
