Noo watch vesus3 could we be the last of us!!!
Look up Stachybotrys chartarum (or toxic black mold). Very dangerous stuff.
Am I the only one who wants a zombie apocalypse like this :/
so zombies can exsits if cordeyceps evolves to infect humans
Does Dnews even realize that when the name of the video is a question they end up never answering that question?
But in the game it isn't regular Cordeyceps, it's a mutated version of Cordeyceps
CRISPR…..
when i saw a grow mushroom near my house i knew i had to come back here.
That fungus is not the only zombie like virus in the animal kingdom, there's also Sacculina. Sacculina goes through the flesh of crabs and through the bloodstream it goes to the brain where it controls the crab like a zombie enslaving it and castrating it
I completed it 5 times. The last time I only died 2 times.
I luv you, that game scared the crap out of me.
I got up to the part where i was carrying wood for a bridge….lol, then i put it back on the shelf. Too slow for me
I don't care man. I just want the Apocalypse to happen
This Is The First Video I've Seen Of Yours And I Love It! Keep Up The Awesome (& Very Informative) Work!
But if it's transefered by spores through air then we would actually be doomed for extinction. Cuz it would be everywhere
Carpenter Ants in Germany? wat
Corona supposed to effect animals only, are you sure that won't develop!
Alzheimers is a fungus
What if it merges from a virus like covid-19?
So if the last of us or just any zombie Infection happened then I'm sure alot o loved ones would die
