    10:56 Only Matpat could be so determined to parse out the layout of the lines on the logo and check for clues in the surrounding papers that he misses the very obvious coordinates.

    Kane handles a jumpscare better than all the big budget horror movies. It was earned and didn’t need music and a loud sound effect to pull off.

    • @MonsterPrincessLala
      @MonsterPrincessLala Před rokem +104

      The thing here is too is that it's kinda the reverse of the Hollywood jump scare. Horror movies for instance use the music and sound to build the tension that culminates in the jump scare. With this, the jump scare is a genuine surprise, it isn't expected, and instead of ending the tension it's used to ignite the tension.

    I figured out part of the pitfalls room! If you go back to backrooms pitfalls video from Kane Pixels, watch 5:37 to 5:45. If you watch close enough you will notice the camera man makes his way over and walks on the suspicious plank Matpat had pointed out throughout this video. When the camera man walks on it, he falls THROUGH the plank as if it wasn't there. The suspicious plank is not real but imaginary. It is not really there. The camera man was not just clumsy after all.
    If you want Matpat to see this new revelation, give it a like please.

    • @cara_lina

    What if this guy who brought shotgun had different instructions about their mission. Like he was scared to death when he lost his gun and after they confirmed that it was Peter who took it he called for backup. Maybe he had to find either him or his body but when he saw Peter standing in front of him he called for help with threat? Maybe he was instructed to not let him out of backrooms if he was still alive.

    • @kitsu_noshi
      @kitsu_noshi Před rokem +76

      This would make sense if they knew about the bacteria and it would explain why he was able to survive months without food and water since the bacteria provides sustenance to it's host. This is why the company asumed that, if this guy is alive he must be contaminated and this is why they can't let him leave the backrooms. Also, they wouldn't have brought a real gun with them if they were hunting for cryptics, it would have made more sense to bring a tranquilizer gun with them because studying a living monster yields more result than studying a dead monster.

So if he was down there for months it would be like not eating for 3 or 4 days and he would probably be starving but still alive.

    Something worth noting, I think, would be how Peter knows for certain that everyone thinks he's dead. Last we saw him, he was setting off the alarm in the observation room. Now, he's wearing different clothes (because he was shown to be in the hazmat when he set off the alarm) and seems to have pivoted from just scared and lost to fully angry. He goes straight for tackling the guy with the gun and taking it. Holding the group at gun point, even when one of them is someone who seems to be a friend of his. He even goes as far as to pull the trigger as soon as someone calls for back-up.
    There are so many reasons for why that might be, but all I can think is that he was abandoned. I can only imagine this corporate entity seeing him and sending him straight back into the backrooms because, as Matt said, letting him come back would only cause more confusion. They turned him away and left him for dead in hopes that someday, one of their teams would find what was left of him and they could pretend he never found his way to an exit. Considering they were in a meeting with the government, it also would've served them not to openly deal with the guy who they lost in the backrooms.

When he first saw the pitfalls, he said something like “woah, this is new.” When I was done watching that video, I thought Marvin died. But in the reunion episode, when Marvin saw the pitfalls, he wasn’t surprised. So it seems like Marvin survived the pitfalls chase but I’m still confused because I thought he died.

    MatPat: Looks up MLML for some non-existent obscure reference. Couldn't be arsed to look up the coordinates that would have connected 10 other pieces for him immediately, including the USJ and MLML references that he glosses over after watching the full video.

    The cup in the beginning is for Moss Landing Marine Labs. That’s where the coordinates lead to.

    Theory: With the sudden notice of Shrek being hinted to in the Backrooms, and Mat having never done a Shrek theory (that I know about, please correct me if I'm wrong) and Mat was wearing a green hoodie...
    MatPat sent Shrek into the Backrooms

      Matpat stole Shrek’s skin and hid the body in the Backrooms, it’s now official

      Mat _is_ Shrek in the Backrooms. Also I believe he has two theories on Shrek. Granted one of them is moreso about Donkey.

    Maybe this dude survived off of mold, and off the carpet water since its supposedly moist, it could be clean drinking water. He could have possibly found something that gives him food, like random rooms that contain food.
