Honestly I was hoping based on the title that this was going to be a video about how to instruct a wolf how to survive the wrath of Liam Neeson.

Alpha Wolf : Exists Liam Nesson : I will look for you, I will find you and I will lie down dying next to you

A polite request for Nerd to cover dog soldiers as they make several large mistakes but mostly do logical things and i think that would be refreshing for Nerd

The sarcastic and facetious narrative about the protagonist being out on the hunt to quench his thirst for blood and souls departing bodies is pure gold. Great delivery.

As if a random wolf would attack a full team of workers head on as they work on loud equipment, damn this movie was trying hard to make wolves seem agressive and dangerous to humankind

Dude, lian was the danger all along, even me, with zero survival experience would know that the safest place would be by the crash, it wouldnt take more than 4 days for them to be found, get enough water to last for a few days and u're golden, i cant for the life of me understand why would anyone suggest leaving the crash site, its like a plane crashing into the ocean, but floating and a mf goes "you know what ? I think we should try swimming to civilization"

The references to Liam’s character being a covert evil force preying on the people he’s “protecting” was brilliant

Nerd isn’t kidding when he says moving in a single file line is a bad idea. It just makes the slowest person an easy target for predators. During the Great War, men were getting picked off regularly by packs of wolves on the Eastern Front. It got so bad that the Germans and Russians called a truce at one point just so they could exclusively hunt the wolves on their respective sides of the line. Wolves absolutely will drag you away and rip you apart if they perceive you as slow or weak.

The Plot Armor is extra THICK with this one.

I'm an Alaskan and everyone I talked to after this came out in town thought it was trash. They rarely get Alaska right- especially when most of the time it's shot in Canada.

Request for Sir Nerd to do a video of a movie called Black Sheep (2006). Spoilers, it is a movie set in New Zealand with zombie killer mutant Sheep. Also because it was an indie film there is a chance it won’t be copyright struck on RU-vid. Also while I’m here I’ll do a call out for a fellow Nerd for a video on how to defeat the hillbillies in a House of 1000 Corpses. Also a great horror movie.

De-icing is only for the cockpit windows, engine inlets, spoilers and control surfaces. The passenger window do not effect the pilot's ability to fly the plane. So they don't have electrical resistance (which would take a heavy toll on the plane's generators or have the heavy plumbing if bleed air is used instead. The outer windows being in contact with the -40°C outside will make this very inefficient too which is why plane windows have a big gap in the first place between outside and inside. The same applies for outside fuselage and the inside of the cabin, the gap is insulation because air doesn't transfer heat as good as metal and will not add weight.

Omg your impression "yesss let the death flow through you" NERD why are you so funny I adore you

These videos are so ingrained deeply in my brain that I'd hear Nerd's voice monologuing every time I do something. I got downstairs to eat only to hear him judge me for not clearing my home door to door with a knife and make sure that there's no intruders hidden somewhere.

With the amount of roasting I though I was watching Cinema Sins. XD

Better to be surrounded in a metal shell by wolves than in the middle of a wasteland with no cover.

The sarcasm was so hilarious in this one loved it. Great job!

The first time I saw this, I liked it. The second through tenth time, I implored others to watch too. Then it started to make no sense. At this point, I prefer to think that he killed himself that night, and this was his purgatory. It isn't particularly logical, but it doesn't make wolves into cartoon villains and makes his journey more interesting and less insane

No, no, see, it's like this: If any part of a gun is the slightest bit damaged in any way, the entire thing is utterly useless. Neeson throwing the gun away is completely realistic. As for leaving the plane, these are actually metal grey wolves, whose power grows in proximity to metal structures like plane wreckage. Making for the treeline makes perfect sense in this context, as trees are the ultimate weakness of metal grey wolves. As for having all the tools they could possibly need and not using them properly, well, that's obviously irrelevant because the wolf attacked them while they were still in the planning stage, thus rendering all resources completely pointless for the rest of time. Going through the woods in the dead of night while surrounded by potentially hundreds of wolves you can't see is just sheer badassery, and anyone who questions it is clearly not a real man. Burke was just too weak to survive, so they told him to "sleep", knowing he'd pass peacefully in the night. The "rope on a tree" plan is just stupid by any means, especially considering they could easily have simply jumped off the cliff, falling hundreds of feet into the water below, and been absolutely fine. The movie significantly suffers from this point on.

a 50 min video? YES PLEASE, wait where's my popcon

you should make a video on how to survive Liam Neeson

The laughter while calling him a moron during the drowning scene was hilarious! 🤣

17:20 “After all, it's not like they're gonna cut through the side of the plane with a blowtorch and start yoinking dudes out, _Ghost & The Darkness_ style… “ I feel old for getting that reference...

No, honey I will not take out the trash, Nerd Explains just dropped.

I'd suspect the whole movie is really purgatory for Neeson, and that after he finally dies in the end scene (he took the alpha with him), he wakes up back at the field with no memory of the events and the whole thing begins again.

I'm glad you actually talked about wolves hunting patterns, this movies, "wolves are evil apex predators" narrative drove me up the wall, some people actually use this movie as a reference to how bad wolves are. Yes wolves are dangerous wild animals, and though rare, they have been reported to attack humans on occasion, but they are not evil, they are surviving.

Where was Liam leading them anyway? I don't remember him checking a map and choosing a location.

Moral of the story: STAY AT THE FUCKING PLANE!

Part of my brain always laugh at the premise of this movie because i can't see wolves as a big threat. It's not because i'm an idiot (well i am one but that's not the reason here) but because i live in europe and the european wolf is literally half the size of the american one. It would be like watching a movie about Liam Neeson against a pack of coyotes.

I love it when you pick out someone to roast and bully🤣🤣 Liam Neeson is the unfortunate victim in this video

Never looked at the movie that way. Just always saw it as him trying to help the crew get out alive but since you reminded us that he is seppuku-cidal, he was just looking for his own way "out".

This movie pissed me off, the entire time when I was watching it, I was grumbling to myself about the inaccuracies of animal behaviour and how they should have just stayed at the crash sight.

I have this movie Blu-ray and have seen it once. It was the most depressing movie I have watched, and I have watched Schindler's List!

😂😂 this is likely one of your best episodes in a while. The recurring joke of Liam being both a homicidal and suicidal maniac, killed me. Damn good work!

even if they don't care about the workers the business would still report the crash even if it's just to avoid prying eyes from snooping when it gets out. and unless the wolves are starving them staying together at the wreck site would mostly keep them away as long as the "meat" wasn't in the area.

Liam was feeding the wolves to make it a fair fight. Goku status

As a survivalist expert (i've seen every man vs wild episode, and countless youtube videos) i had to shut off half my brain to watch this movie

Liam's character here has developed a spiritual philosophy around death as it is implied he is one who takes lives, it is also his duty to comfort them as they cross to the other side, hence the petting of the wolf and his comforting of the dying man. It's something you develop after being responsible for many deaths, you look at things dying differently, somber and melancholic but something that eventually has to be done.

Fun Fact: Wolves don’t lap water like dogs do. Instead they suck (like you would through a straw). A wolf-dog hybrid w/ enough wolf in it will do the same.

I swear he said "And we'll lose the wolves in those trees." Uh, sure.

I’ve re watched this video like nine times and I love the jokes man why don’t you do a how to survive from the wolves perspective?

Yeah plus the plane has an emergency Locator Beacon

IRL survival experts and outdoorsmen the world over must have collectively facepalmed so much at this movie...

Yeeaaa Nissan definitely felt like the villain in this 1

Atleast his wife or daughter didn't get kidnapped this time

Finally, you cover The Grey omgg, bless ya Nerd

Always a good day when Nerd drops a video! And of a movie I know!

You made this great movie even better.

I work at an airport in operations and we really do try our best to ensure safety. An alert 3 or basically shtf scenario happens with a crash i pray i dont ever have to handle that call

May I respectfully request a review of Sweet Home and/or The 8 Show?

Maybe the best edition of Nerd Explains I’ve ever seen. A tour de force 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

If you thought two weeks was gonna be long enough for me to forget that this is day 105 asking for a how to survive the crazy family in house of a thousand corpses. You dont know me son!

The Boeing whistle-blower comment alone gets you a thumbs up.

Bro got some personal beef with liam neeson.

Maybe the real wolves were the friends we made along the way ❤🐺♥️🐺

This is giving, the warden Hugo, levels of being a leader

I really hope that your views will go up again because I love your videos and your comments in this one were comedy gold :D

Excellent movie review

A request to cover MAMA-2013. A thrilling story of sadness involving a ghost assuming the role of a mother of 2 children whos father the ghost murdered. And then takes aim at the adoptive parents of the children. Lots of monster screen time as its more like a monster than ghost but definitely a ghost. Very enthralling story and deeper meanings of abusive motherhood. And mistakes made 😅

I actually think it makes more sense to just take the whole wallet. Pulling out just the identifying and sentimental items not only requires taking your gloves off and takes a lot of time, it also makes everything way harder to carry. Also, the wallet itself can be an identifying item.

How To Beat from the villains' perspective(s) could be a good idea. How would a bunch of wolves take on a bunch of Alaskan oil rig workers and one bloodthirsty security guard after their plane crashes to prevent more environmental destruction to their home?

I never noticed how much logic I overlooked to enjoy this movie. We got robbed of the final boss fight though. I thought the improvised wolverine get up was cool. Pretty unique, and I mean, prolly better than your fists?

I was dying laughing throughout the whole thing 😂 love the vid

Best one yet 😂 great work guys 👍

Honestly this is my favorite Liam Neeson movie! 🍿

I been waiting YEARS🎉🎉🎉

I was starting to worry, thanks nerd for uploading

42:17 okay, that broke my heart… 😭 I cried fr

Tbf that final “gear up for the fight scene” was pretty awesome and building a fire would both do nothing and there isn’t enough time since when he finds out he’s in the den to where the alpha attacks is like a minute at most which would be barely enough time to get a fire smoking

This is one of my favourite movies!!!

I guess the message of the movie was "Never trust and Alpha". Liam just talks hard and makes the others around him submit with his Brooding Edge.

😂 great episode NE 👍

Pat the Wlof! *PAT PAT PAT*

This is like a frozen version of Non Stop, where LN kills everyone in the movie himself. Their wallets are his keepsakes 💳 😅😂

A similar situation in Arctic (2018) with Mads Mikkelsen requires your help ❄️

I dont know who scripted this one but this script had me laughing outloud, great job guys

Jokes on you! I'll never get in this situation because I am both afraid to fly AND hate the cold!

Your commentary is exquisite

7:42 That Boeing whistleblower joke took me out faster than Boeing takes out their whistleblowers 😭

Do the taken movies, but how to survive liams wrath as one of the bad guys

waiting for NE to see that french shark movie Under Paris🤣 they definitely needed some help

These videos are always a hilarious laugh riot

Wolves are generally shy creatures who avoid humans so... not sure how plausible this movie is- youre way more likely to die via polar bear or moose

I remember this movie because the trailer was misleading and when I saw it in the theater I was very displeased. The trailer made it seem like a cool survival type scenario (emphasis on survival) instead of a super depressing, plodding character drama. I wish we got that movie. I also wish they came up with a real reason why the survivors couldn't remain at the best spot of discovery, the plane.

How to beat the creeper from jeepers creeps or aliens from sign or an American werewolf in London please nerd explains 🙏

Okay my dad works for a group that does satellite programming for the faa. If the plane as a transmitter and an altimeter (which it does cause it’s larger than a bush plane) the second that plane drops below about 2000 ft (give or take depending on the region)an alarm sounds in the control room of the tower that is tracking that plane. Everyone know the second a plane goes below the base altitude and efforts immediately start to contact the plane and get emergency crews gathered. So they need to STAY BY THE PLANE

“If your plane crashed in the middle of the wolf infested Alaskan wilderness, what would you do?”- CRY?! TF?!?

I still cant see anyone but Qui-Gon when I see him as thats who i first saw him play XD

I'm thinking the movie is Ottway's predeath dream. People talk of visualizing a variety of scenes before death. Ottway's perspective is him being cursed in purgatory for hubris. Also, it was a well made movie as all of the cast dies.

i like how u assumed he would still have the same skillset from his previous movies😂, i do the same with reeves.

You made is sound like we are the wolfs trying to beat Liiam. Lol.

Nice video

mentour pilot makes an appearance !!

i couldnt stop laughing at this LMAO, but this is good info on what not to do

and to think, in a alternate ending that didn't sit well with test viewers, Neison won the fight, got up and walked away. it actually could have been so much stupider.

One reason I can think of for leaving the plane is the Dyatlov Pass incident but then you should only leave when the food runs out and you only have bodies left.

Outdoor Boys cameo around 13:35 😂

Do a how to survive but from the wolves perspective as they try to survive Liam neeson

I loved this movie
