What is up, my cranky crew? We're doing the full cranky place today. We are here in the quarry. I am super, super excited about this. I'll put a card up here, and you can go in the link in the description, but the quarry is basically a spiritual successor, I guess, to Until Dawn, which I played on the channel a very long time ago. I'll put a card there. I'll put it in the description if you wanna go and watch my series on that. I loved Until Dawn. It was super fun. It was very scary. It was very campy. There was a lot that I really, really loved about the game. And so today, we are here in the quarry. If I'm honest, I haven't looked at hardly anything about the game, just because I knew that it was coming out and I knew that I wanted to play it. And I just didn't really wanna know anything. So, my expectations are high because of how much I loved Until Dawn, but I legitimately don't really know anything about the game because I've just wanted to avoid it. So, let's get into it. It's also gonna be fun because I haven't done like a series on the channel in a while. So, let's get into it. I agree to all. I don't know what I'm agreeing to. Oh, isn't this nice? Wow, I'm gonna enable streamer mode. Or should I?  You know, we'll see what happens. Leave it or cat. I don't even know the cast of this. We'll see. I'm very excited. Evan Eva Gora. I don't know who that is. Wow, starting it off with immediate, immediate copyright music. Maybe I should have enabled streamer mode. It's okay. Just lower the audio or whatever. Maybe if I talk good enough and then pitch shift it. I don't know. Ted Raimi. Oh, Myles Robbins. That is cool that they have a streamer version. That's really cool. Halston Sage. I also, I'm not sure. Again, I've seen basically nothing of this. So I don't know like what the monster is in this game. If there even is a monster, I don't know. I am not sure. Justice Smith. Is this Ariana Grande? I have no idea. It kind of sounds like Ariana Grande. Just immediately starting with Ariana Grande. Great group. It's fine. It's fine. I'll just enable streamer mode after this. I should have done it from the beginning. Should have trusted my instincts, but it's okay. What's watching the car come down the road? Oh, Ariel Winters in this. She's a, she's from modern family. And Grace Sabrisky. I have no idea. I wanna pause it to enable streamer mode, but I don't wanna skip anything by accident. Why does the, thank you.  Because it was copyrighted. I don't think I do. It begins with an L, like the L word. Lesbians? Yeah, I was thinking. Lost, Max, we're lost. We're just, we're in geographic flux. Right, so. Geographic flux. Quick time events. Oh, we're getting. Take a moment to consider the following, as it will guide you through the various twists and turns that you'll hear during your stay at Hackett's Quarry. What you see here are quick time events. It's getting meta, which will help you to act at just the right time. Wow. Watch your step. Hackett's Quarry can be a dangerous place if you're not paying attention here's around. Okay. I have the ball and it could spell disaster. It could spell disaster. The better you tread is yours to choose. Wow. But it doesn't mean there won't be obstacles along the way. Okay, cool. Ah, honey, nice catch. That's how we do it, gamers. Thank you. That's how we do it. We're playing on PC, by the way. The roads are definitely getting worse out here. I guess it's all part of the rustic summer camp experience. Oh, right. That's where we're going. I lost track like 200 miles ago. 200 miles ago, huh? Hm. You know what, Max? It's okay. It doesn't make you any less of a man. I don't like the framing of this. I don't like the framing of this. There would be no United States of America. Not that. Oh, sorry, also. Wow, I'm here. Settings. Subtitles. Let's get those bad boys on, please. Thank you. Open dyslexic font. Oh, I love that. Damn, that's sick. I'm turning extreme remote back on. OK. See you later, Apple Pie. Columbus never actually landed in North America. What are you talking about? Didn't even know he wasn't in Asia.  Just another guy who didn't want to admit he was lost. Well, just another guy who's got a whole day named after him. So put that in your pipe and smoke. I mean, he was also not a good dude. I had us to camp already before I rolled my eyes out of my act. You're working on it. I'm working on it. But you know, whatever. I guess we'll just forget about that. Ooh. Let's pick the leaflet. Were there any directions on the fire? No.  Well, then, do we choose the map? Check's out. God, it looks really good. Yeah, all good. Look at the detail in the sky. Hey, eyes on the road, mister. Yeah, what are you doing? Whoa. Doing pull the brake. Ah, you didn't tell me what. I didn't know which way to go because you didn't show up. I thought I just had to press a button immediately. Well, this is going great so far. This is going really good so far. This is going good. Jesus Christ, what do you think that was? A bear? No. Bear? What was it? It was a person. It was a person. It was absolutely a person. It was not a bear. I don't think you hit a person. I don't know. I mean, it was really close, like really close, but maybe we didn't. Well, I guess let's just get out and look. This is great. What is it? Really, after this car up. Well, maybe it looks worse than it is. I should check out the damage before we try to start it up again, huh? Could you grab my tool box from the trunk? Yeah, yeah, OK. I don't feel good about having the hood up. I don't feel good about it. I feel good about it at all. This game is going to be full of jump scares, and I just know it. It's always what they do. Ah, the phone flashlight. Oh, interesting. What's this? It's not so bad.  How old are you guys supposed to be? OK. Well, let's go to the trunk. Interesting, interesting, interesting. I guess, oh, interrupts. What are interrupts? At certain times throughout the night, opportunities will present themselves, giving you the chance to take matters into your own hands. Oh. It is worth noting that they are only suggestions. You don't have to act upon them. OK. In fact, sometimes it's better not to. OK. Oh, that's great. I may do the interrupt thing and then get killed.  Let's go in the trunk. Let's see what we got in here. Do some snooping. Got to find the, that is not the toolbox. That is a letter. Ooh, rejected. Oh, rejected from Landis University. Uh-oh. Why did he keep that out like that, though? If that was supposed to be a secret. Thanks, honey. Yeah. Do you need a hand? Yeah, actually, if you could just shine a light right here. Here you go. Perfect, thank you. Sooner we get out of here, the better.  I don't think people curl up right in front of a campfire sing-alongs. So these kids are probably like 18 if they're going to college? Well, who's watching? Anywhere's better than here. Should we go out here? Is this a thing? Oh.  Are you just going to pretend that you didn't see that? Or is, am I just seeing that as the player and you actually didn't see that? Where are you going? Just over here. You're not going to tell them that you just saw a woman walking around in the woods in the nightgown? Yeah, come on, Max. What's going on? Thing. I'm worried that there's somebody down there.  They could be hurt. I don't know. I didn't think we actually hit any. Well, I don't know. I just heard something, OK, like a woman. Do you think we hit her? I just want to check it out. OK. No, you don't. All right. Just don't go too far, OK? Be careful. Sorry, no. Max, you don't say, hey, just be careful. You go with her. Just leave the car if she really wants to check it out. Either be like, hey, maybe we don't do that, or go with her. Don't just let her go alone in the spooky woods where she thinks she just saw a woman walking around in the. Guys, this is why you don't split up. You stay together. Now they're both going to die. I forgot that until Don was all like fixed camera angles and stuff for the most part. What do we have here? Haibam Skaibam. What is this? Haerim Skaibam poster. This is a poster from a traveling side show. Looks like it's been here for a while. Forgotten in the woods are those burn marks around the edges. Haibam Skaibam. Yucky. Why would you do this?  I think that you should just be like, hey, I'm done. Ooh, a fork in the road. What's? Why is there? Uh-oh. It sounded like a, what's it called? Like radiation for a second. Escapology trunk. A trunk filled with strange devices. That of an escapologist, perhaps? A relic of a traveling show that must have passed through the air. I don't like that or a way to keep people tied up in a straitjacket. What is she going to tell me? Is she going to be like, yeah, I didn't say anything. Weird. Must have just been my imagination. Are you going to tell him? Dude, if I was, I would not be searching around more. I'd be Denzo. I have a feeling that I'm going to get all of these. Ah! I'm going to get all of these characters killed because I'm bad at QTEs. Well, they don't want to hunt this. It's Silas.  What is that noise? I wish I could move the camera. I don't like that I can't see around this corner. Also, phone flashlights are not that bright, you know? It's, is that a man hanging in the back? You see that? Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Oh, don't lie. I'm so sorry. I cannot sleep. I cannot dream tonight. Big yuckers, dude. Big, big yuckers. Pretty good. Pretty good at things. Yep. Oh, yeah. Pretty good. Didn't trip or anything. What's wrong? Is everything all right? What's going on? There's noises all around me. Honey, honey, take a breath. It's OK. It's the woods. There's a lot of stuff out there. There's animals. It's easy to freak yourself out. No. Can we just? Are you not going to tell them what the trunk with the straight jacket in it, or? Check the back seat. Check the back seat. Check the back seat. Yes, there we go. We're in like a kid. Max, come on. Here we go. Here we go. We're getting out of here. Stuck in the mud, baby. Don't just slam on the gas. You got to ease out of it. Give me a minute. We've got to go, man. All right, you're not helping right now. I am trying to get us out of here. All right, enough.  You're not going anywhere. We're OK. We're safe in the car, really. We're going to be OK. GF. Roll it down. Hi, officer. How are you doing this evening? Are either of you injured? Really, we're fine. We're just a little shaken up. I don't like that guy. I don't like that guy at all. I don't like that guy. What are you doing? Are you folks want to tell me what happened here? What's path chosen? He gives me the heebs, dude. Package quarries full of twists and turns, unknown paths and unexplored wonders. With each step taken, you tread a path of your own, matched with its very own consequences. There will be moments throughout your stay that show you that the choices you've made, the path you chose could have gone another way. And Hacker's quarry, there's no such thing as the wrong way. But be warned, some paths are more dangerous than others. OK. So much fun. OK. OK. We swerved off. Well, we were just driving. And it's really, really dark out here. And I don't know. We must have had like a pothole or something because we swerved. And now here we are. I mean, these roads are really not in great shape. He's got blood on his neck. What is he, a blood on his neck? Sir. Sir? Is this kind of like the all-time scariest cop? I don't know. This is my first cop. What, like ever? Yeah, I'm not a criminal. This is your first cop. He's got a little hitch. Well, at least he's actually helping us out as far as we know. So that's good, at least. Oh.  Aren't we heading up to camp? We're heading up to Hacker's quarry summer camp. We're new counselors. You're one night early. No, no, we know. But we figured we'd get in early and scope it out, you know? I mean, they know we're coming. We called ahead. And to be honest, sir, one of us kind of oversold their navigation skills and got us completely lost. You're not going to make it to Hacker's quarry, not tonight. Why? Harbinger motel. It's the nearest place you can bunk up there for the night, OK? I think we're just going to stick to the plan, sir. I mean, Mr. Hackett knows we're coming and we called ahead. No, ma'am. You're going to head to the Harbinger motel.  Why? Ha, ha, ha, ha. Why not? I'll do respect, sir. Why can't we go to Hacker's quarry? Because I told you to go to the motel. What? Why? You're not my dad. Don't understand what the problem is. Ma'am, please step out of the vehicle. Oh. What? Officer, she didn't do anything. She's just wondering. If you wouldn't mind stepping out of the vehicle, I would just like to show you a route on your map there. Why do you have to step out of the car? You can show it through the window perfectly fine. For sure. You don't have to get it? You don't? Remain in the vehicle. You're a lot. OK.  Hello, sir. Why don't you show us the map there? So where are we? OK. So we, you, are right about here. Oh, hey. Harbinger Motel is here. Right. And where was Huckett's Corey? I'm sure the fine folks at the Harbinger Motel can guide you there first thing in the morning. Harbinger Motel, stay on the road. Watch out for potholes. Oh, you need like a statement? Just have a good night.   I don't like him at all. You can get a fake cop car.  Just saying. Why is this guy just sitting there? He's making sure that we go to the thing. Guy was giving me major weirdos about it. The dude needed like at least a dozen shots. Oh my god, I know. What was up with the thing? Did you see that? Was it blood? Nice to meet you. Well, let's go to the motel, I guess. All right, let's get back on the road. Yes. I think I've had enough woodland encounters for one night. Thank you very much. I agree. So where's this motel? OK, so we're here. And the motel is here. OK. But we're going here. What's there? It's quarry. I'll wait. He said. But he said to go to the thing. I'm going to check him into showing you. Very slick. Very slick. Get to the motel and listen to this guy's advice. You really want to listen to the advice of some creep-ass cop? He told us in the middle of the creep-ass woods to go to some creep-ass hotel. I don't know why. Let's hit the road, shall we? That's what I thought. Ma'am. Oh my god.  Seriously, do I look like a ma'am to you? I've got like 20 years before I'm a ma'am. Do you think he's going to follow us? 20 is debatable. Easy.  We deliberately disobeyed the officer's advice. You've got to be kidding me. There's nobody here.  Max, can we just look around before we jump to conclusions? Did you actually even talk to Mr. Hackett or did you just leave a message? What's the difference? This. This is the difference. There's a very big difference. Actually, there's a huge difference. I guess he doesn't check his voicemail. How was I supposed to know that? Well, I think that just assuming that it's going to be over. Really, there's somebody here? Yeah, or it's just an abandoned car and this is a complete waste of time. Why would there be an abandoned car? I'll be in the car.  I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I agree with Max on this one. If you didn't talk to the guy, I don't think it's just safe to assume that you could just show up a day early and maybe Silas is home. I don't know who Silas is. Who is Silas? Do you think Silas was the one that was the escape artist? Well, let's just go back to the car. I'm just assuming that everything, uh-oh. It's going to want us to go down under there. Is one of the windows? What is this? Treehouse, the jetty, the boat house. OK, the car park. That's where we are.  That's the motto of the summer camp. I'm sure you will make you stronger. This is a place for children. Sorry. I don't want to go down there, guys. I'm going to be honest. I want to play it smart. Oh, it's going to make me, isn't it? Ooh, what's over here? Well, have you done, Max? Well, have you done? Yeah. Hey, you ready to roll? Here we go. Why? Why we shouldn't trust this at all? No, just no. You might as well put a sign there.  Iggy, Iggy. Oh, it's a naked man. I'll be right back. I'm going to get some help. What would you do? Max, Max, get over here. In this situation. There's somebody in the bunker. I think they might be stuck. Bring some tools so we can break the law. You know. Hey, I'm back. We're going to get you out of there. I would. This is. Oh, my god. You scared me, Max. I don't know. You just said tools. Why didn't you just bring? Look, there's somebody in there. He picks a hammer and a crescent wrench. And he has a hole too much. Look. I'm looking. I am. Why? There was definitely someone there. You saw him move. OK. You saw him leave. All right. Take the hammer or take the wrench? I guess the hammer is going to. You sure? It's going to be super loud. Oh, man. OK. All right. Let's let's do the wrench. Yeah, OK. Wrenches. Is that really? Are we going to be able to break a lock with a wrench? How are we going to out? You need a hand? Yeah. I don't know if that's how wrenches work, but that's OK. You know, we're in a video game. We'll suspend our disbelief. Yeah, I don't like it. Oh. Yeah, it's not good. Should have just left. We should have just left. Also, we should get like a flashlight, flashlight. The phone flashlights, they're just not strong enough. They don't light up a room as well as an actual flashlight. Are you hurt? Do you exist? Yeah. What's this thing moving? Hey, be careful. Yeah, what's this bike? What's this bike thing? Oh, Max is just going to stay there? Not be a helper, man? Ian. Uh-oh. Ah. Ah, I don't want to walk around in here. Hey, Max, will you come in? I want to look at it. Can I look at it more?  A collar looks to be too big for a dog. What kind of dog would be called Ian? I actually really like human names for dogs. I think it's funny. Like a dog named Michelle. That would be kind of funny. Max?  Or like not as like a stylistic thing. I think it's fine. But I just, I don't like having everything be. So how about we go back to Max? What if we just be a little bit, uh? Maybe it was a possum or something. No, there was, there was someone here, I swear. Yeah, you're not going to tell him about the dead body? It's been kind of a night, you know? Let's just get to the motel. We can come back here first thing in the morning. We can check everything out. But I mean, you must be exhausted. I know I am. There's somebody behind him. I think our imagination is going to be a little bit more urgent about this. Your eyes are really shaky. We're going to help them even though it's probably a bad idea. Oh, we're going to die. Oh, we chose our path. We chose our path and we're sticking to it, gamers. But again, the game said no wrong path. No wrong path. Imagine if I just left him.  It's the cop. It's for sure the cop. It's the cop.  It's the cop. Oh, this is royalty free? Yes, please. Oh, man. A path was chosen. I mean, I guess we sort of got the illusion of choice, didn't we? A little bit with that one, because I'm sure if I had gone up there and left Max, the same thing would have happened. Ooh. Yes, yes. Look at that moon, huh? I haven't seen anything like that. Well, I like this so far. Very, very fun. This game is going to be spooky. I haven't played a classic spooky game like this in a second. It's a lot of skulls of different creatures and whatnot. Is there going to be like a narrator type guy? Like there was in a- Hello, my friend. Oh, yep. Welcome to the show. Hey. We are friends, aren't we? Are you the woman for the woods? I've waited for you. I've waited, yes. So I do hope our time together proves enlightening. There's no need to worry. I'm here to help you. Think of me as your guide into the unknown. It's exciting, yes, and terrifying. If you're brave enough, if you let me help you, I can help you. We can help each other. You didn't find anything. And so I have nothing to show you. You need to look harder. I didn't find anything? If you don't help me, how can I help you? We're supposed to be friends. You said so yourself. Search harder. Only you can find them. OK. All right. There are secrets out there, you know? Secrets and lies, paths to uncover, on which I can shed light. If you let me, help me help you.  OK. Well, Max is dead. So it killed him. Ooh, that's the prologue. Is this next summer? Now this sounds like royalty-free music. Oh, yeah, this is royalty-free for sure. Hacket's quarry forever. Oh, boy. What wonderful things will this summer hold? Hm? So who's Mr. Hackett? Hackett's quarry summer camp. 1953. So Mr. Hackett must be pretty old then. Oh, that's the end of summer. Lightest. Lightest. The bus is gone. You know how many hearts are broken on the last day of summer camp? It's like a romantic apocalypse. I mean, you never know. The universe has a kind of way of working these things out. The universe? Yeah, like the cosmic space gods. Oh, yeah, I love a cosmic space god. OK, spell it. Nothing to spell. You know, we're cool. Oh, so cool. We are super cool.  Uh-oh. Did you guys find any dead bodies or anything? Kate, this is, um, you've heard of spatial awareness before, right? Spatial awareness is for nerds. Be a lamb and grab the last couple of bags, will you? Yes, boss. Be a lamb? Say, I don't have enough for me.  Yes, I am. Oh, boy. All right, well, let's see what we have here. So, hey, kiddo. Ever hear about this door over here? Hey. Hey, what do you listen to? Nice. Good to know. So I need to find some tarot cards, I believe. I'm assuming that's what she meant by cards. But I guess we'll find out.   Not in the mood, sign. Hm. All right, well, let's see what we got up here. What's the inside of this lovely cabin look like? And are there any tarot cards just chilling around here? Hello? Hey, hey, are you guys going to help with the bags or what? Oh, you know, I was actually just working on fixing the door. It's broken. Dylan, come on. Dylan, please. I can't. I got to get the last bags in there. Come on. What's wrong with this thing? Dylan, please. Sorry, bro. Cool, thanks, guys. We'll have to find another way in. Through? Ooh, what do we have here? Hickey's Glory Semicamp, 1953. Got the camp plaque. Look at how pretty this place is. How could anything bad ever happen here, right? It couldn't, definitely couldn't. Breaking in through the window trick, a classic. Skill. That really winded you going through the window. What do we got here? Horror.  You know, and it's kind of funny because it's a horror video game. Kind of silly, kind of kooky, kind of crazy. It's also been a very, very long time since I played. I mean, the last time I played Until Done was when it came out, which was, I want to say, like, 2015? Question mark? I thought that bear was a person. So if there's any, like, nods to Until Done, I might not remember, if I'm honest. Just because it's been a bit. Are we just going to leave these, like, dirty plates out and stuff? Like, aren't we, like, leaving, leaving? Is there? Hey, I found my way in. How are you? Why didn't you open the door, huh? OK, really, dude? Locking me out? OK, in my defense, A, it was Dylan's idea, and, two, it was really funny. Oh, yeah, right. I don't know if it was that funny. I don't write the rules, man. OK, whatever. Look, are you going to help me with the bags or what? No, I've got to stay here and wait for Mr. H to return our cell phone. Sorry. Jesus Christ. OK, and why are the stairs blocked? Well, apparently it's to keep raccoons and other pesky bar mints from ransacking the place. Mr. H is where it's not mine. Oh, boring. OK, is that where our stuff is? It's upstairs. Is that you, Dylan?  All right, what else? What else we got? Anything down here, no. Where are the bags? Is it down this dark spooky hallway? Not down the dark spooky hallway, OK. Here we go to the other side. What's over here, maybe? What a lovely camp. What a lovely, lovely camp. Where are the rest of our bags, though? We've got to take them to a water face. That's where I came in. I believe it's right over here. Let's see. Ah, this is the kitchen. Temperance. Oh, I got one. OK, well, cool. So I don't have to look, look for them. Is someone going to be in the freezer? Why are we going in the walk-in? We don't need to do that. Man, that's a bad place to get stuck. Foreshadowing. I love foreshadowing. Can't wait to get stuck in there in a couple hours. That's going to be great. OK, well, this is not the place. It might be Danny. Ah, there are our bags. OK. Got the bags. Got them. Great. All by yourself, huh? Yep. I guess you're not to get used to that. Oh my god. You are so mean. That is mean. At least I'm honest. Oh, OK. Here we go. OK, you're not telling me the whole truth about you and Amari, son? Ooh. Let's be playful. Oh, OK. So now I'm the one who's not telling the whole story, huh? Oh, well, this is the bait I just got to take, Jake. Oh, sorry. I just got so distracted about that. Ryan, I forgot what we were. Oh, no, no, no. You were telling me how you totally have a thing for Ryan. Wait, are we talking about Ryan, the sailing instructor with the sexy brooding loner thing that totally doesn't do anything for me at all? Let's be sweet. Knew it. Who said I was hiding that? I'm not. I'm just saying, you know, I feel like if you really did like the guy, you would have made a move by now.  I don't. OK. Her whole thing is like, how are we going to make this work? Different schools, blah, blah, blah. My whole thing is like, you know, maybe long distance, blah, blah, blah, blah. And she was just like, Jacob. She gave you the look, huh? Yeah, do not pass, go. Man, she just got you wrapped all the way around that dainty little finger of hers. How does she do it? Who defeated her brave? Let's be defeated. OK, you know what? Maybe you're right. Maybe she does have like this superpower over me. But you know what? Maybe I like it. Oh, likes it. Check. Totally not in denial. Check. OK. Wow, the fumes of jealousy are just stifling over here. Excuse me? I'm just saying, I guess some girls don't have what it takes to hang with the big dog.  The big dog? Don't ever refer to yourself as the big dog ever. Let's seize the moment. I'm just saying, I don't know why you didn't make a move on Ryan. You should have seized the moment. Well, I can't seize the moment that ever happened. Yeah, well, you can't wait for it to come to you. You got to make the moment happen yourself. Oh, right.  So wait. I'm not going to miss a game. What was that metaphor? So are you sure that this old respect to Robert Lee?  The doors might actually kill me.  Well, I haven't killed you yet.   I think something else is going to kill both of you, probably. An engine. OK, so total hypothetical.  Well, you'd probably break the fuel line or, I don't know, rip out the rotor arm.  OK, and what does a rotor arm look like again? It's like a arm that's all rotary. You know, it's under the little black dome with the leads poking out. Jake, you do realize that even if we somehow did get stuck out here, one more night with Emma wouldn't make a difference? Trust me, Chick's made up her mind. Yeah. Sure. Don't do it. Yes, we'll just have to find out. Don't do it, Jake. Don't break the rotor arm. Well, let's steal the rotor arm. Because if we break the fuel line, then maybe we can't get a van. But if we just steal the rotor arm, then we can put it back. You know, but what if you come along with me, buddy? I'll put you right back tomorrow. No harm, no foul. Up here, my dudes. Dumb. Why did they look like they're up to something? Hey, Jacob. No, dude, please. Duh-duh-duh-duh. What? Oh. Oh. There it is. Oh, man, good side. Freak. Oh. Well, now we have a flashlight. We have good signals. Freaks, surrounded by freaks. Oh, thank god. I'm going to get the whole no technology thing, but take me back, world. You would have thought Mr. H could have, like, charged up our phones, like, a little bit. Nothing's ever your fault, is it? You know, you should really just save it for emergencies only. Unless, of course, is being dumped an emergency. Oh, man. You don't have to do that.  OK, well, at least I had a relationship this summer. Oh, damn, now we've burned. Yeah, well, maybe not everyone is looking for a hope.  Where is everybody else? Why would I know that? Everyone else's are there. Is this just two? Look, I don't even know how to respond to that.  OK, yeah, keep dreaming, Junior. Well, I guess we're staying here for the night because we took the rotor arm. So there's that. It's so pretty. Very, very pretty. Who are you? Oh, and you have cool tattoos. Or is it just pen?  I don't know. Hey there, party bear. Status report. We are officially empty nesters. High five. Next day. It was completely missed. I should have done that. You're about to get your backpack on now. Why did I do that? Let's go collect our bags and away from this mosquito-infested backwards dump. Door's locked. Bags inside.  It's obvious what we have to do here. Find someone with a key. Shape our destiny.  Well, I guess we'll break in. OK. Let's do it. We better not get in trouble. I won't tell if you won't tell. Mr. Hackett's going to find out. So what? I'll just think it was a bear or something. A bear? Have you ever seen a bear in these woods? No. That doesn't mean we're not out there. I don't know how often bears just like, All right, let's do this. Pick locks. On three. One, two. Oh, that was easy. Oh, about the power of positive thinking. Why do I ever listen to you? Because I'm always right. Are you sure they're going to think it was a bear? Oh, my God, relax. It's not like we killed someone. All right. Well, I'm just going to take another look around, make sure we didn't miss anything. Go nuts. OK. What do we have? Oh, what do we have here? This was little Izzy's. Oh, a little Izzy. Ew. We're going to keep it. Let's get you back to Izzy. We're going to keep it. Because what if we can use it as a distraction for when we inevitably are going to get murdered? I think we can take all the things we can get, you know? We're actually going to miss all those lumpy loose springs. Anything here? Freak show. Why would this place be in the news? Freak show goes up in flames. Is that it? Is that it? Is that all? Do we have anything over here? No? All right. Well, let's go. What is this? Hello, bird. Hello, big old crow. What is this room? It's that big old crow, that big old raven guy. It's going to be weird not waking up to Dylan's morning announcement. What kind of mic they got in there? Hmm. I thought that the raven was going to do something. I mean, it might have. It may have affected our path in some way. Somehow. Could we have gone through every cabin? What is this? A little radio. Oh, recorder. I'll tell Chris about it when we see him. Chris, which one is Chris? Okay. Is there anything else out here that could be useful for us? Aw. Ouch. I hope Jacob hasn't seen this. Evidence. An empty vial. A vial of what? Is that Dylan's? We got the pool. Oh, okay. Hi, Emma. So, Emma. Breaking hearts this summer, huh? Breaking a whole lot of hearts. Ready to roll? Ready to roll. Let's do it. Do I get your drive? I want a drive. Time to let loose and bemoose this caboose. Dramatic. Annoying. Confident. It's just acting. It's what the people want. So you're faking it? I mean, in a way, faking it is just being yourself. But louder. You should try it sometime. You never know who you might impress. Okay. It's too late now anyway. For what? You and Nick? You never know unless you put yourself out there. Which one's Nick? Nick the Australian one? Nice steering tech. Jankies. Okay, so hypothetically, if I were to put myself out there, what if he ends up being a dud? Kind of like you and Jacob. He's actually really sweet. Then why'd you quit it? Summer fling. We're going to school like four states away. He gets it. Yeah, sure. He gets it, though. He seems. That's us. You and Nick could be different. Why don't you guys handle? Hit him up. I already have his email. It was in the packet they gave to us on the first day. Email? Are you 93? What's wrong with email? I would feel a little bit weird. Like I kind of get what she's saying, but I would feel a little weird if like, someone I was interested in like even remotely like emailed me. I feel like this is a weird way to contact me. Victory lap around the camp. Victory lap. Let's go to scenic route. Let's see what the scenic. Sure. What's the victory? Two months. No technology. I kind of thought it was nice to be offline. Well, I didn't. Plus my subs need me. Let's go sarcasm. How'd they even get by for two months without you? I will have you know that I have a very loyal and engaged subscriber base. I provide very important and educational lifestyle advice in the form of entertaining and hilarious video monologues. They rely on me. Oh, totally.  Very big deal. I mean, I'm sure they're going to be like really heavy a rock. She just doesn't get YouTube. My favorite spot? The fire pit? The island. Mad secluded, right? Mad secluded. Is that smoke? Should we tell someone? It looks pretty contained. It's probably just Mr. H burning some stuff before you know, he closes camp for the summer. Yeah. Speaking of which, we should. We should probably, you know, get back. Oh yeah. We're gonna leave without you. No, they're probably like all waiting for us. Everyone's waiting for us. Everyone, yeah. Nick, waiting for you. Everyone, see him.  Oh, who's watching? Yucky. I could score a summer camp entrance. Don't worry, Jacob. I got you. I got a full tank of gas, so...  Ha ha ha!  Does nobody own phone chargers anymore? There's no signal out there anyways, dude, okay? This place is like patchy as balls.  What? No. It's okay. I'll just go get some juice from Mr. H. before we go. Uh, you... Ray. Hey, Nick. Hey, where were you guys? What did you like to know? Ignore her, please. Let's go. But what about the rotor arm? It's missing. Just got to get these bags up onto the... Oh, here. Let me get it for you. I can take care of my own bag. Thank you. Are you sure? I mean, it's really not that big of a deal. She can take care of her own bag. Thank you. We can both take care of our own bag. Thank you. Cool. That was sad. Nudge? What's Nudge? Uh, Abby. Do you need... Yeah? Can I...  Isn't that cute? Oh! Are you just going to awkwardly look around for ten minutes? Nice.  Hey, has anyone seen Ryan?  I'm here. What were you doing under there? Having a little knee part? I was listening to a podcast, actually. Podcast? Nice, that's cool. What's the podcast? Protective. Is it about me? Yeah, what's it about? Is it about me? You think I was listening to a podcast about you? Okay, if anyone you're out of podcasts about them, it'd be me. Yeah, if there was a podcast called How to Look and Smell Like a But.  Ha ha! What is it about Look and Smell Like a But? No, it's a... Paranormal podcast. This episode was actually about this place, weirdly enough. The Hag of Hackets Quarry. The who of the what's-it-where now? The Hag of Hackets Quarry. What's the Hag of Hackets Quarry? You don't know about the Hag of Hackets Quarry. Uh, if I did, would I be asking them, ass? Tell her about the Hag of Hackets Quarry. I don't think she wants to know about the Hag of Hackets Quarry. Can we just please stop saying the Hag of Hackets Quarry? It's just this campfire story for the kids.  A few years? That's... Looking for a lost baby boy. Silas? Reports of whispers or whatever and this figure that floats around. You know, textbook ghost stuff. So is this before or after Max and whatever? She catches you alone.  Or something. I don't know. It's never really been clear. Anyways, Hag of Hackets Quarry. Give me that up. Right here in the podcast, man. How do you make that up? Defensive. Oh, yeah? You got a cooler one? Oh, no, I wasn't being sarcastic. I didn't really tell it right. Look, no, no. Seriously, dude, I think it just came out wrong. Oh. You gotta be careful with this stuff, man. This shit's true. Come on.  He seems sweet. Oh, Mr. H. We're off to it. You're younger than I... You're younger than I thought you'd be. Sorry, Mr. H. I had to liberate some luggage.  Maybe if somebody didn't spend so much time trying to impress the ladies with all those ghost stories. You asked. Ghost stories? The Hag of Hackets Quarry. Sure. Hey, you still have the van key, Mr. H? Well, yes, I do. You know... I'd lose my head if it wasn't stuck on. Back to the office I go. Okay, Mr. H. Give me a hand. Would you, Ryan? Oh, okay. Yo, Mr. H. What's up, DJ Dylan? A little chance I could get a little charge. I want to have some tunes for the road. No can do. Oh. Why? Cool, cool, yeah. No worries. Good man. Kind of it. Why not? Are we going to be Ryan now? Are we going up to Mr. H's? So, Chris, I'm actually glad we got a moment to talk. Uh-oh. I'm not fired, am I? No, it's just, you know, about the whole thing with the... Hold that thought, partner. I'm going to have to take this. Oh, yeah. Oh, sorry. Hello? Listen to podcasts? Don't do so much, bro. They're almost out of here, all right? You're cutting it pretty close. We don't want to have... Just hold your damn horses, all right? Everything's A-OK on this end. This is a waste of time. You know what? No, should I have? He's gone quiet. Probably staying out of the way.  Nobody else. Put your earbuds in. Pretend you were listening to music. Sorry, I wasn't... I wasn't listening. I was just, like, waiting. I mean, I heard... I didn't hear what you were... We're cool, champ. Just come on in. Sorry I pushed you out like that. Where's the paint? Is that...? You need a hand? Looking for the keys? No. End of summer. Busy, busy. Anyway, you were asking me? Oh, yeah, yeah. It was just the whole animation school thing, what you thought I should do. Right.  I'm not exactly around, so I wouldn't want to leave Sarah on her own. Our family's small enough as it is. Family is important, right? You're not really paying attention. Dang it, Chris. Hmm. Let's be frustrated. This is just important to me. You know what's important to me, Ryan? Trying to run a successful summer camp. Still trying to make up for the losses from last year. Hmm. Terrified kids are bad for business. Phone calls. I get from scandalized parents, nightmares, thumb-sucking, bed-wetting. Think about that. The next time you're flipping porn about the, uh, the... Oh, the Haggra Hackets. Just think next time, champ. Use the old skull muscle. This is skull muscle. Let's be apologetic. I didn't realize it was such a big deal. Got to understand the repercussions of your actions, Buster.   A leader. Yeah. Just stick to kumbaya next time, okay? All right. You guys don't do kumbaya anymore? Good grief. I'm outgrowing my own cliches. You found those keys or what, Buster? Seriously, Chris, what's going on? I just want to get you guys safely out of dodge before the sun goes down. What happens after the sun goes down? Why? It's getting dark, Ryan, and it's not safe to drive in the dark. And safety is the first step towards fun. Sure. Just give me a minute.  I ain't going to help you find your knees, Chris. Who's that? Will you say goodbye to Caleb and Kaley for me?  Well, you'll see them again next year. Caleb works in the scrap yard during the off-season, and Kaley, well, she's still figuring out what she wants to do. She's got her whole life ahead of her. It's a weird-looking photo. They'll just come and go as they please, really. Teenagers, am I right? You can say that again. I could have used the help packing up since we were short staffed. You guys seem to manage all right. But I'll tell them both you were sad and you missed them. Unlocked at the van. Put the keys in my pocket. Came in the office. Right where I left them. Ugh. That was like the best old man trying to run, I've ever seen. Is that a deer on the painting? That's weird. Hmm. Well, crew, let's rock and roll, shall we? Oh. You're new? I try not to dwell on the past, man. Good. Because it's time to dwell on the minivan. Get on with our respective lives. Move it, let's go. I feel like he's not going to be super happy when the van is no more. What's the problem? Ugh, dude, I don't know. I think there's something wrong with the engine, Mr. H. Yeah, you can see that. Yeah, dude, it's just, like, kaput. What, dude, I'm telling you, all right, it's busted. Well, maybe you're doing it wrong. Well, maybe you're doing it wrong.  Enough. Enough, both of you. Come on, come on, chill. Let's go, dude. Told you kids to check everything. We did, it should be working. Yeah, well, coulda and shoulda doesn't mean it is, does it? Dammit. Jesus. It's a little, uh... Look, it's not that big of a deal, okay? We'll just spend one more night here. No! No! Just stop. Let me think. This dude's up to no good. I don't like that. One more night shouldn't be that big of a deal. He's very intense. Dammit. You're right, you're right. He's really intense. Yeah, you're right. Hey, Brown, come here for a sec. It's... It's a deal. Make sure that everybody is inside the lodge for tonight. Lock the doors. No one in, no one out. No one, got it? Okay. Okay. I'll be back first thing in the morning. And we'll get you all on the road. You just have to keep everyone inside. Can you promise me you'll do that? Yeah. Sure. What's going on, baby? What's going on, baby? After God's sake, keep the noise down! Keep the noise down? They're like in the middle of the woods. Why does it matter? So... What was that about? He said to stay inside. That we're not leaving until the morning. Are you kidding me? What's it do? Well, we should go inside like he said. We could go inside until the morning. Or we could do something else. Let's follow and... No, no. We should really listen to what Chris told us to do. Of course. Who cares what Chris told us to do? He's not our boss anymore. I mean...  It seems like the stars have aligned for us, no? Okay, okay, okay. One last epic bonfire blowout for all time. Damn, one more epic bonfire blowout would be sick. Oh, dude.  Dylan's in, obviously. My man, Caitlin. I go where my people need me. Yeah, okay, Em, what do you say? Yeah, I'm in. Mr. Hackett seemed pretty insistent He was just trying to freak us out, you know? Like, um... If I had to... Why would he want to scare us? If somebody was that intense about me staying inside, I would do it. I don't think he was trying to freak us out, Jacob. I think he was really freaked out by something. Jesus Christ. Chris seemed real serious about this, guys. He did. Just say your end, man.  Dude, he won't even know. No, no, no, dude. It's all good. We get it. You don't want to disappoint daddy. Let's get defensive.  You know what? I don't even care what you guys do. I'm doing what Chris told me to do. He might be the only one that survives. Ryan, come on, man. Wait. Hacketeers. Party planning committee, let's do this. First things first. You will get some firewood. M and I will go to stores for some supplies. How are you going to get to the store? And Dylan, you just... I don't know, figure out how to... How are you going to get to the store? All right, let's do this. Is this...is this Chris?   Oh, this is big yikes, dude. This is big yikes. Why are his pupils so big?   Oh, yep, that's blood. Are you about to... go scare the... the children? What's it say? Hunting season. Oh, yeah, that is, uh... That is not good. That is not good. Uh, hello, miss. I was hoping you'd come back to be... Yes, I found a card. Let's see what you found. Temperance. Temperance. Uh-huh. To be balanced. To consume in moderation. Or to indulge in excess. Temperance. Take it or leave it. But remember, sometimes, with temperance comes deferred gratification. There's more I can show you if you like. Yeah. Oh. Let's see more. I was hoping you'd say that. Forwarned is forarmed. You'd better be going. It's still early and the moon is bright, but time won't wait. Not for those with a story to tell. Be careful. Look out for yourselves. And look out for my cards. Okay. Spooky lady. All right, guys. Well, I am going to end this one here. So, depending on how this video does, I may or may not continue the series on YouTube. I might just stream a bunch of it and then upload that as a big thing instead of uploading like one hour to two hour videos. Depending on how this does, let me know if you'd like to see it more in a stream and then I upload that to the VOD channel or if you'd like to see more of this. Let me know. So, anyway, I'm going to leave this one here. Thank you guys so much for watching. Hope you enjoyed. If you did, make sure to slap that like button right in the face and I will see you guys in the next video. Love you all. Stay cranky. Bye.

they fell out of anchovies was Gerald told him well I went back to get some that's the Gerald top it we know different yeah a lot different so would you go on please well I was upstairs counting the receipts from yesterday getting the bank statement ready for him as a cashier yeah there we go would you go on please well first thing I know the man standing right behind me holding this gun pointed right at me you can just that he liked to scare me out of my wits must have been terrible or it was I just turned around and there he was with this gun just about scared me to death that's when he asked you for the money did he didn't ask he just told me to put it in a wooden box he had just put it in the box what do you say what were his exact words well he just kind of walked over and said put the money in the box and don't cause no trouble this is a stick up like that he said it or did just what he said sir I gave him the money dumped it all in the box just like he said they told me to lay down on the floor just told me to lay down and not to make any noise he would come back and kill me I think he'd have done it too I think you were the room I well I did what he said flat on the floor did he have the box when he came in yeah I had it under his arm I was down behind the meat counter all of a sudden I heard this scream that was me I let our yelling and Tom here heard it so Gerald we kind of looked at each other and then I grabbed the meat cleaver and started up the stairs I didn't know what was wrong but I didn't know it was in trouble I appreciate that Tom I knew you're in trouble and I came around and got the stairs come up the office and then I saw him he was just coming down he still had the gun did he yeah that gun in the box I didn't know what was in it at that time but I had an idea I just kept the cleaver and started up the stairs stopped when he saw me stopped right in his tracks Tom's awful brave so he told me to get out of his way or else he'd kill me where he pointed that gun around kind of believed him so I backed down the stairs and him right behind me all the time he had that gun pointed at me where was the manager all this time you mean Gerald mm-hmm I don't know I was now I saw him you're down to the cash register in front you saw this guy coming down the stairs and ran for the phone to call the police fella saw him and he took off after Gerald I thought he was going to shoot him but he didn't just hit him give him a concussion of the head exactly sympathy that's all one hour and a year wrong I've seen it he gave Gerald an awful hit right along here were you hard now which way the man go after he left the store please they ran down that way down Union I will you describe the man for me was about five feet and he was going to be a little better if you told us one of the time I guess you'd never get it that way a little difficult so you go ahead Irma well I told the other policeman he was about the funniest looking little man I ever saw real little oh not really I think you just kind of hunched over well he looked little but how tall was it oh about five foot eight maybe nine guess that's about right tell him about the way he was dressed oh yeah had on this black overcoat and a hat all pulled down over his eyes the hat I mean what color was his hair do you remember and what I could see but it was kind of long like colored that's right and yet a must-have you know real big look like old-fashioned kind like people wore now to kid you know handlebar black real black well he left the store did you notice we got into a car yeah he did I saw him run down the street and jump in one dark color I'm not sure what kind it was I think it might have been a Hudson Lake model I saw that I was looking up the side window upstairs and I saw the same thing did you tell the other officers about it I didn't need to die I guess you better get out of broadcast on yeah you happen to get the license number of the car yeah that's where I went to work got it written down right here on my apron she numbers ain't too plain but you can make them out no sir I can't you'll have to help me there I got it too right here I saw I'm getting the car and I wrote it down thank you having the number the car is going to make it easier to catch my lane it should make it a snap just find out who owns the car and man it's not gonna be that easy I'm afraid why both numbers are different a supplemental broadcast was gotten out carrying both the license numbers at the victims of docking Frank put in a call to DMV asking him to forward all information on the numbers the prime lab crew came out and went over the place for fingerprints but they were not able to turn up anything we could use we continued to question the butcher in the cashier we've got a complete description of the thing the one outstanding thing that both of them agreed on was the mustache both said that it was a direct contrast to the color of the man's hair and said that it might have been darkened with shoe polish or some kind of grease people in the vicinity were questioned but none of them were able to supply us with any new information the injured manager was removed to Georgia Street receiving hospital for emergency treatment and then referred to his own doctor Frank and I talked to him but he only verified the story that we've gotten from the other two people in the store 1245 p.m. we returned to the city hall and asked the stats office to start a run on the M.O. for us the victims were asked to go through the mug books but they were not able to identify any of the photographs Frank and I spent the rest of the day talking to the other storekeepers in the vicinity of the robbery we asked each of them if they'd seen anyone watering in the area anyone who looks suspicious from each of them we got the same answer none of them could help us in establishing the identity of the suspect the kickback on the license number came in from Sacramento but when we checked out the information we were no closer to apprehending the thing the next morning Thursday August 14th Frank and I met in the squad room hi Joe how's my old buddy this morning I'm alright sound happy the problem with a straight now oh yeah sure got home last night everything's great all right hey we started last night what's that thing and me we're going on a

home about the hold up man something about him the way he acted and talked made me think I knew he was that I'd seen him some place before uh-huh we're most of the night just thinking about it and

through the record bill while Frank went through the packages checking the description we got another suspect I went down to the stats office and picked up the list of possible that they had for us

Hello and welcome to NewsClick. Yesterday, claims of Ram Setu being man-made were everywhere. These claims come up every couple of years and get the Hindutva Brigade excited and then they start circulating these claims. So, today we have with us Prabir Purkayasthar, Editor-in-Chief to talk about what these claims are, why they keep coming up and what is the actual science behind the Ram Setu. Welcome Prabir. So, let's start by talking about what this promo, the science channel promo actually says and you know what is the actual scientific explanation of what they are saying. Well, there are two things I think we must register in the promo. First that is of course it's a promo. They want you to see the full program and this in some sense is like clickbait for television that you make a sensational claim. So, people will want to watch the full channel whatever they're going to say which is obviously going to be much longer. Now, having said that, what is the basic thing that they are claiming which has been picked up by others. As I said, the promo is not explaining anything. It's making a certain sensational statements in order to attract eyeballs. And in this they are saying that the sand on which the rock stand which constitutes what is called the Adams Bridge or Ram Setu doesn't really matter. That the sand is younger while the stones which are on it are older. What's our ages?  So, this is the first anomaly they are claiming and the second thing is well the stones are rather big and it would require superhuman engineering as it were to set them over there. Therefore, are there really some kind of divine intervention and therefore the concept of the Lord Rama, a mythological figure. Though actually the Ramayana claimed it was constructed by the Vanarseda. So, it wasn't claimed that it was constructed by supernatural powers. But having said that, let's look at the first what the dates are, 4000 and 7000. Now all the Hindutva Brigade as you called them, they are saying the Ram is 1,750,000 years back. So, if they are willing to say the Ram in order for the Setu to be artificial needs to be only have gone to Sri Lanka in the current terminology. Only 4000 years back they themselves are now going back on the genealogy they came for claim for Rama. The Tretayug, Dvaaparyug and all these yugs they have talked about and the antiquity of the Aryans in India. And therefore also that this is the, shall we say the Sanskritic homeland, the Vedic homeland and it's really been there for millennia and so on. All this claims and come into question. So, they have the really the unenviable task of accepting what the science channel says and also reconciling it with their historical evidence and they keep on claiming which is really the mythologies that we have. The second part of it, the explanation seems to be rather simple that sand deposits because it is continuous wear and tear of coral reefs, other weathering action of the sea itself and that would deposit on shallow shoals which is what this is. Because this is really some continuity of structures between India and Sri Lanka and as the sea came up they went there for some parts of it to go below the sea. And this we get shown which is narrow region of the sea in that sense gets sand deposited on it. And because the weathering of the rocks the coral reefs are continuous the sand is going to be younger. Then what are the older rocks which are already there from before. So, all we are talking about is really something rather simple to explain if we exercise your common sense. But then you know this is also the way the science channel actually operates. If you have seen its other programs you will see the science channel takes up some of this mythological claims, some of this what it calls anomalies, some of it could be various shall we say things which are circulating like the abominable snowman, Yeti, the bigfoot or the lockless monster. And then creates this whole hype about it as if they are going to show us something startling and come out with yes the lockless monster exists, something similar. While at the end of it they will give a rather mundane explanation of it. If you have seen the science programs, science channels programs, it is really something which is very similar to what they did to the lockless monster. They took a picture from space which is easily available. They actually can buy this from various satellites which are circulating above the world. And then with these feeds you can create some anomalous objects that you find created by such pictures and then have a whole spin a whole show out of it. The lockless monster they claimed here is the lake in which you can see a big something which is there in the water.  You sometimes get an artifact of the image and in this particular case the vote has disappeared and what is definitely the wake and that comes up as if it's an unexplained big object. So this is really a part of image processing which is what all of these have to do in order to sell us the really attenuated sharper pictures and otherwise you would get from this what the camera is directly. This is how it always works. So I think that's the nature of television today to create something out of nothing.  Smriti, Rani, Piyush Goyal, Ravi Shankar Prasad. All of them have already made public responses and are very excited about this episode using just this promo. That's a very interesting exercise that periodically happens. One is of course the saying and this is what our ICHR chairman has been on record saying that our mythologies are oral history and the supersede any scientific evidence we can find. But if they get any shred of so-called scientific evidence and immediately rush to the press, rush all over, the Twitter is flooded, postcard news and other of these fake channels which specializes in really fake news they immediately come and say oh here is the proof. So science is only accepted if it supports their mythologies. Otherwise mythologies supersede science is the position to take. But it is really startling to see union ministers, very senior ministers of that once you have named rushed to the press saying it proves everything because the science channel has said so. Without the elementary precaution of checking up what the science channel is all about, how do they treat news and have they really said what they're claiming it has said. It's not that scientists have said it quote-unquote scientists. It's a Twitter message the science channel has put out only to draw eyeballs. And of course the media response to it as you said was also very interesting. They were feeding into this frenzy times now had this whole 15 minute long segment where they were using these claims and then ultimately blaming the UPA government like how could the UPA government say all of this. So what do you say about the media response? Well I think media owes to its readers, its viewers something more than what they're doing. If we look at the sequence of it today as you know is the Gujarat elections. So anything to beat the UPA with day could be argued was the times now on the Republic TV's day. It didn't matter what it was. In this particular case it was a science channel saying something. The chief editor of times now going in his for our Ornop style, the angry Ornop style which he seems to have popularized and going on and on about science has said, science has said. No it was science channel. I was wondering why was he getting so excited about it till it came to the crucial part. UPA bashing. Now one day before the elections in Gujarat you were doing UPA bashing. The intent was really to help the BJP as much as you can which seems to be the agenda of both times now on the Republic TV. Every day their primary task seems to be meeting the opposition on some issue or the other. But I think we are being inserved by the media who in competition with each other are trying to sensationalize non-news as news and not willing to do preliminary checks. Asking even some geologist in the country what does it really mean? Does this 4,000, 7,000 years have any alternative explanation? Is it possible that it could still be not a manmade structure but a natural structure? So elementary precautions are not taken. News click is nowhere in this, shall we say in this league. But before we went in to critique what was happening we actually did some due diligence, minimal time that it takes to do it. We talked to some people, we looked at what the science channel is but why these big channels don't do it is an important question. Yeah and as I said they should have consulted geologists because there are actual scientific papers already out on this Ram Seto and how it came to be. So thank you Praveer for joining us and that's all the time we have today. Thank you for watching News Click.
