The Dark World of Randonautica 

10:57 bruh idk what happened to my text there.... I had a fire joke there :( life is tough

Tried it with the intent of money, found a nickel wasn’t disappointed

I set my intention for "enlightenment" and it sent me to a Wendy's. Results may vary.

That TikTok when they found that suitcase was crazy though. Everyone was talking about how it might be a dead body but no one was talking about how randonautica took them there

As someone who has never used randomnautica but has trespassed and explored a lot: when you explore, you find weird shit. trust me.

I sent my intention as disappointment and the pinpoint kept moving as I walked around

"It took police 3 hours to get there" The famous Seattle Police Rapid Response in action, folks

Love how this dudes voice isn’t annoying at all

Imagine being the App employee who had to race there before them and dump the suitcases full of body parts. That's dedication to the experience.

Hopefully i'm not a victim of someone typing in "death" or "blood."

You missed an important detail. The kids who found the suitcase wrote “Travel” as their key word. Which is scary because people use suitcases for travelling.

My intention was "love" and it brought me under a bridge where there were two homeless dudes going at it. I am not even kidding.

Tried the app ONE TIME a few years back. My intention was peace or something like that. It led me to a forest reserved for hunters, in the middle of hunting season. Not the kind of peace I was looking for, yo 😭😂

As of now, two bodies were found. One man, one woman. The woman was 35 year old Jessica Lewis, who died from multiple gunshot wounds. The man, Austin Wenner, was 27 years old, who died from a gunshot wound to the stomach. Both are estimated to have died on June 16, and their deaths have been ruled as homicides.

the kids who found the body on tiktok had their thing set to travel, and they found the body in the suitcase. the whole story freaks me out

Wonder how long it'll be until clickbait RU-vidrs use this app saying "I found the Boss Baby at 3am 😱😱😱😱😱"

I used it a single time. I was having a stressful week and was going through some relationship stuff. I don't remember what my word was. I think it was energy or something. I walked down to the pinned spot and I saw a child's chalk drawing on the sidewalk that said in a pink heart, "YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL!" It was wholesome and I got a big dumb smile on my face.

Its true guys, I typed in depression and it lead to my home

Okay this whole thing is an AMAZING idea for a horror movie.

If she had chosen to walk you would have missed the ambulances... crazy how one small decision makes big changes

“I don’t want to record because it looks like they’re getting out the stretcher” Good for you! Seriously, you deserve praise for that. It’s unfortunate, but you are a minority of young people today. We are so numb to the existence of others, it’s rather upsetting. Love you guys.

Randonauts: *choose „death“ as intention* Randonautica: *gives coordinates to a dead body* Randonauts: :O

Imagine if they actually opened the trash bag and saw human remains. They dodged a bullet there like just imagine the trauma it would cause.

Just in case you didn't know; the body in the suitcases was actually the remains of 2 people. A young lady and her boyfriend were killed by their landlord.

the thing with randomnautica is that life is weird and people are pattern seeking. it's not that the locations themselves are leading you to anything, it's the act of setting your intentions. If you ask for ghosts, an abandoned home or hut becomes a haunted one, if you ask for love two people kissing may seem significant, and if you ask for death you will find it as death is everywhere. it's a great way to go out and explore the world and see some interesting coincidences, but at the end of the day they are just that.

My intent is finding something evil and malicious. It’s 435 feet away from my house Edit: I found a flock of geese in the exact spot

"Places that shouldn't exist" These are just places the majority of people ignore or neglect.

Nick: *has intent of happiness* App: *gives them an ambulance*

If you go out looking for something unusual to happen, any minor thing is going to seem unusual.

oh no i’ve returned to my creepy story phase again

Who the hell puts “death” as an intention

We tried with the intent of love. It took us to an outdoor wedding with very few people (guessing covid still). They invited us to stay & eat & hang out. Hey I'm not passing free food & free alcohol! Made some new friends too.

I did it with my sons… one son said turtles… there were two turtle statues at the coordinates. My other son said “confirmation I will achieve my dreams” at the coordinates there was a sign that said “Congratulations Jack”… Jack is my son’s name. Our minds were blown.

Why hasn't somebody called The SCP Foundation yet? This is right up their alley.

Is it just me or is the word "human remains" more terrifying than "dead body"? Why are you people likeing this? Its not even a good comment!

Anyone else notice that between both of those houses is a playground? And mind you their intent was happiness. I mean... how has nobody noticed this coincidence?

Something interesting to point out is that the human mind is able to make connections where there are none. It’s partially true that you manifest these scenarios because you notice it more when you're looking for it. These are pretty crazy coincidences though tbh

I used the app and it took me to some guys yard with a sign that said “trespassers will be shot” smh

I genuinely feel so bad for these kids. Imagine going out with your friends to play what seems like a harmless game and finding a body how traumatizing.

i did this a few days ago w my friend and my intent was “love” and it took me to where my first date was w my ex i-

While my mom was sick with cancer and I was sick with liver disease we used Randonautica and it took us to a park where we went out and had fun for the first time in months. Then awhile later when I was recovering I used it again with a new partner and it led us to a closed off street full of street cats who we then fed and pet. I’m a huge animal lover. I know it’s probably coincidental but I still appreciate those moments Randonautica gave me.

If only a real man of science like JayStation was here to test this.

From my experiences with Randonauting, the app shows you what you want to see. With that there will always be a light side and a dark side. My favorite personal Randonauting experience was when I set my intention as “odd nature”, or something similar to that. I had expected to see some cool plant or bird. Nope. Saw a squirrel with a half tail.

Me and a friend were using this app, and our intent was weird shit, we went out in the middle of nowhere and we had a muddy pig run out and greet us

I think with this it's a case of confirmation bias, I think there's probably thousands of people using this app and finding nothing. The only ones actually posting anything are the ones who found something and therefore it looks like there's more coincidences than there actually are. It's like blindly throwing a dart at a dartboard a thousand times, eventually one of them is going to hit the bullseye.

I set my intention for "friends" but even randonautica can't find one for me

The name of Randonautica immediately reminded me of Subnautica

I set my intentions to "Alabama" and it started leading me to my sisters room.

The smell of a person decomposing is something you never want to know what it smells like.

I’m going to set my intentions to my dad. I hope I can find him. wish me luck Edit: thank you for all the likes, this gave me more encouragement to finding him

Could you imagine how horrible this would be if they opened the bag themselves?

Nick: “ I wanna see something darker” Randonautica: “ so you’ve chosen death”

In order for this app to be “unexplainable” or “paranormal” you have to ignore the 99.9% of cases that result in mundane nothing burgers and focus on the .1% that result in anything remotely “freaky” to experience. Ignoring that your experience doesn’t actually match your intentions, and the location of these freaky experiences doesn’t necessarily occur on the exact spot you’re sent to.

Someone should just set their intentions to “cure for covid-19”

the creepy thing about the suitcase is that the kids thought it would be money, and the name of the person in the suitcase was cash. night docs has a very interesting video on it.

"Guys we were randonauting and our intention was death" Huh I wonder what could POSSIBLY happen.

Idk about "opening doors" etc. but tbh.. I've always kind of toyed with the idea that our thoughts really do somehow affect things. Like little things.. you randomly think in your head (and never say out loud) about a movie you havent seen or thought about in years, suddenly it comes on tv, or someone else starts talking about it. Another example.. sometimes when i learn like a new word or phrase for the first time, ill suddenly start hearing it everywhere. Im 31 years old like its just weird that i can go my entire life never hearing/knowing about something, only to suddenly be hearing it everywhere? Its weird.

Looks like he forgot the first rule of randonauting: DONT do it at night

I am still skeptic if this is true or not Because if something like this turns out to not be fake, it would change our entire view of the world and not to mention that the creator of the app would have a lot of explaining to do

bet someone’s gonna randonaut their way to the backrooms

My Dad is a coroner and was a paramedic for 30 yrs prior....it will change you. Seeing stuff like that puts how fragile and gruesome life can be.

If the Ouija Board was an app, it would be Randonautica.

set my intentions to "sex" and it sent me to chuck e cheese. I've been happily married to THE Charles entertainment cheese for 5 years and we are soon expecting our first born. Thank you randonautica

This dude is risking his life and his girlfriend just to debunk this theory. What a legend.

I forgot about this and this made it way creepier, my dad got this app after seeing all the stuff on RU-vid so my brother typed in "money." It took us to a parking lot of an auction building where they searched and I rode around on my bike there for like 10 minutes and they found a dime. Not much but still... unerving

just a theory... if your intention was 'blood' to start with, then it was 'happiness', those ambulances could have been there for a home birth, or someone who went into labour? it would explain both the blood and the happiness intentions.

You're actually the only person who I feel confident you aren't joking or staging things for this app. ..

Everybody gangsta until someone's intent is "end the world"

I remember this was my 1st ever Nick Crowley video I watched. I have been hooked on this channel every since! I added it to my list of horror, creepy, paranormal, unsolved mystery channels like Nexpo and those kinda channels

I mean the original intent she said was ‘blood’ oop. The universe really said “no take backsies

Technically, the concept of Randonautica, as stated by its creators, is true - you're much more likely to paint your perception of a place with a specific emotion if you believe that place to be a manifestation of it. For example, if you wish to go somewhere creepy and the app sends you to, say, a random field, then you're much more likely to think of it as being eerie than to find it peaceful. That's just how things like the placebo effect work. That said, I do really like the concept behind Randonautica, even if it isn't as fantastical as people think. You're also much more likely to "discover" things that match up with your preconceived notions of what a place should be. The fact is, many of the things people are finding - old clothes, blood spots, people hurt, wood forts, etc - are all there all the time. We've just been desensitized to the world around us and focus far too much on where we're going, not paying mind to the places we inhabit. Also, the warnings are partially true too, but not because its some otherworldly phenomena. It's just because urban exploration can be incredibly dangerous - especially if you're just going into the woods, looking through abandoned houses, etc. Not only could you run into potentially harmful people far from anyone else, but you could also severely injure yourself on broken planks and the like with few ways of getting to safety. Btw! IMO, the happiness points are pretty easy to explain - as shown by the houses around you, you seem to be in a rather wealthy suburb, maybe on the outskirts of a major city? Many older people live in wealthy suburbs, and many of them require medical attention far more than the general public for what younger people would consider minor problems. So, the ambulances were most likely helping old people who injured themselves in the shower or something, or maybe someone was giving birth in their homes. As stated before, older people are most likely living in those houses, and older people usually have kids when they move into upper-middle class suburbs. And for the Death intention, y'all were driving around late at night near cities on a 55 mph road - drunk drivers are obviously gonna be around and likely to hit someone as a result of being drunk. Again, I don't wanna diss you or sound like I'm being dismissive, but that's honestly the best explanations for them.

My cousin tried this and she's scared to tell me what happened-

I tried this with my friend and our girlfriends and it led us to a dark backroad. Halfway to the destination was a random car that turned off it’s lights and started driving toward us and we were forced to reverse all the way back into the main road was pretty creepy 10/10 I don’t recommend

"I've lived in this town/neighbourhood for so and so years and never noticed this" That's literally the point. It's so mundane, so ordinary, or so overlooked that once a location generating app sends you that coordinates, you immediately think there's something to it.

I set my intention as "happiness" I found a dog *maybe it is right*

Morale of the story: Don't go looking for happiness, you'll never find it.

I had downloaded Randonautica twice some years ago but never actually used it to hike anywhere because the original warning and advise message at the beginning put me off so much. The second time I actually had it downloaded just to read to a friend what the original warning message was like, only to find that they meanwhile had changed it to sound more neutral - typical warning stuff you might find in other hiking apps, like don't walk into private grounds, don't walk into unfamiliar areas on your own or after dark, such things. The original message I had when I downloaded it the first time sounded far more sinister and foreboding. Like the app was outright sending you to your death on purpose. The first location it would have sent me to was in some forest near my home village. Peaceful small village and forest, knew the forest for over 20 years of my life, had played and walked through there often - didn't go after Randonautica sent me there though because I had the feeling that this would be the place I die if I went there. Uninstalled the app afterwards. It could all be coincidences. But there are other hiking and exploring apps which send you out to a random location - but none of them greet you with such a sinister and foreboding sounding warning message. Btw, the second time I had downloaded the app to show my friend I also wanted to create a spot. We were in the middle of a city, one might think that there are many interesting things to see in a city. But no matter what option I tried, it didn't find a spot at all.

Why people go on this and think of the intention “blood” or “death”. Like, why 🤦‍♂️

I went Randonautica with my sister. We used "Childhood" as our intention. We never had a great childhood, it was filled with depression and suicidal thoughts. There was a beautiful white house, it was in beautiful condition. It had a baby blue roof and the windows were stained blue. It looked like a house out of a dream, to get to the house we had to walk through a meadow filled with different coloured flowers. There was a huge tree, almost unreal. It has a roped swing and it looked like something out of Matilda. Now that I look at it the house it exactly the same, just add huge backyard space and no fences or trees surrounding the house except for the huge tree near the side. I'm still questioning whether or not it was a dream. It was so beautiful and made me wish we grew up there.

Both of these instances are just insane! Definitely be careful what you ask for!

no one is talking about how this is legit terrifying and that’s honestly baffling to me

"PLEASE DONT GO RANDONAUTING" *sobbing tears* "WE PUT OUR INTENTION AS DEATH" welll......uh...... why in the hell would u do that and expect something nice??? lmfao

It ended up there were two people murdered. A guy and his girlfriend lived with a man who was their landlord. They pissed him off. He killed them and cut them up. Put them in suitcases, and threw them into Elliot Bay in Seattle.

It is called the "Full Moon" effect. You remember the crazy/odd things and forget/ignore the mundane things. It is your Perception of what you see not what you see.

The Marketing Advisor of Randonautica is a Genius

My friends and I had a weird experience where we used the intention 'Aliens' and it dropped a pin near us which was inside A DAMN MILITARY BASE. And like we couldn't get inside obviously but that's where it wanted us to go???

8:08 Okay. This is a serious thing WHY WOULD YOU SENT INTENTIONS TO DEATH.

Whenever I hear the word “astronomical” I think of that guy on tiktok. “The volume in this bus is ASTRONOMICAL”

I set my intention to “Hellish” and found a path with a bunch of stuffed animals tied to trees.

"im actually shaking, like im not even joking. Im shaking" Completely steady camera footage ensues

The happiness it gave you was the 2.2 million views you have on this video.

I don't know why people aren't asking to find "money", "happiness" or "winning". It would be a lot more pleasant.

"This video is made possible by Randonautica"

Did 16 randonaught spots, 14 random feilds, 1 dudes back yard 1 clearing in woods next to road. I think its just random coincidence and confirmation bias.

I did it and set my intention to death (bad idea) and what had happened, it send me to a cemetery and after looking around it, I found a grave, but it wasn't covered, so you could just see the coffin underneath. Really scary

imagine dropping acid then going raundonauting what an adventure that would be

I downloaded the app, my intent was "Reunion", i live in a big farm in texas, it was a 39 minute walk, i rode my bike, the location was litteraly the grave of my dog named "chewy" my dad was a massive star wars fan and named the dog after his favorite character. My dog wasn't the only one buried there, my grandfather "Lloyd Cole" (we moved to a new location just about a month ago, which is why I feel safe saying this information) the place they were buried was called MukeWater cemetary. His obituary is still on their website today if anyones interested in fact checking. Since today I'm too scared to open that god forsaken fucking cursed app

Gonna set my intention as ‘hot babes’ to find out if there really are hot babes in my area

I think that the app is connected to local EMS location data thru the GPS function. I'm explaining it poorly but I think that when you put in certain data like the "blood" option it is giving you the location of the most recent location that a call for EMS was made to. That's why you found first responders at those specific locations cause their GPS is supplying the same data.
