Today we react to examples of uncanny valley Subscribe to my other channel!: @memeulous Instagram: / memeulous Twitter: / memeulous Merch: www.memeulous.shop/ Business/media enquiries: george@memeulous.com
you should search up lake bodom m*rders. they did a sketch of a guy with ALL his features exaggerated. and the fact is he looks exactly like his sketch. real creepy
as someone who has also had a long time fear of the dream man, when he came up on screen i tried to cover my eyes with my hands so fast that i punched myself in the nose so thanks george 👍
That dream man scares the shit out of me though, when I played through the smile tapes on a livestream I laughed at him because he was a goofy man, but honestly he gives me the absolute chills. LikeI wanna look away but I can’t, I just look back at him wordlessly
Fun fact (ish) the police actually did manage to identify a body from the composite sketch of the woman with the tiny pointed nose- in real life she did have a notable ‘chipmunk’ nose/ face so some people came forth and identified her
For the person who appears in everyone's dream, I feel like it's placebo. I don't think I've ever seen that man and a lot of people probably haven't. So either people have started dreaming about that face after seeing it, or retroactively added it into memories of dreams of the past, which is a real thing.
The police sketches are so terrifying to me because some of them are portraits of the dead victims . (im pretty sure) so i cant look at them without feeling a little ill :(
There is also a more rational reason to uncanny valley (can’t remember if this is the actual reason though) and it’s that we evolved with this fear to stay away from dead corpses who could have carried diseases
I love hearing you talk about death in paradise because I know exactly what episode it is and it is a fire show. It was the one with the voodoo lady suicide right?
That episode is my favourite cause of that twist. Like I predicted 90% within like the first 10 mins and was about to be disappointed. When that reveal came on, I was shooketh!
i've heard it's potentially a trait of autism, and that's not an insult because me too. the most reaction i got to the images george showed was the occasional "ew, that's weird", but no flinching or shudders. what I DO react that way to on the other hand, are things that are significantly more messed up looking (less humanlike) than most people's threshold for that reaction. i will not bat an eye at a creepy mannequin (in fact some of them are kinda fascinating in their weirdness) but i will have a visceral jumpscare reaction to AI generated images but specifically the ones from before the tech got good so the faces are horrifically mangled and distorted. i feel stabs of physical pain and flinch or jump when confronted with those or force myself to make "eye" contact with them, but according to the youtube videos i've seen compiling them, most people just tend to find them really funny. i imagine the way i react to things that consensus says are outside the uncanny valley is a similar reaction to how others react to things that are commonly seen as within it; i think we (or at least I) might have a differently-placed window of tolerance for what counts as "looks humanoid but is slightly off enough to be disturbing". this is backed up by the fact that certain AI generated images (specifically the head-and-shoulders-only photo combining breeder feature of Artbreeder) look "human enough" to me for it to not trigger the fear at all, whereas my neurotypical friend had a strong uncanny valley reaction to the same images, saying "they look creepily inhuman". somethin to think about
'Eyyy, David Szymanski, the DUSK developer (awesome retro FPS by the way, can recommend if you like that sort of thing) bringing the terrifying anthropological implications of the Uncanny Valley effect! The absolute legend, he never misses, or something.
When I was in college there was some dude that would break into people's homes, watch them sleep and eat some food. Basically most of the homes were kinda in the middle of nowhere. The only reason people knew he had been there was because he left thank you notes (for letting him watch your wife) and packets of coffee.
The face reconstructions that Police issue of bodies are because the faces are either severely rotted, bloated by being in water or smashed by violent attack into being completely unrecognisable. So the morticians just have to try their best with what they have. Sometimes these are literally corpses that you are looking at, just to add to the disturbing nature of it all!
George at the start: You probably look at all these things and are _slightly_ scared. I'm not saying like going "Ahh! Argh! Ahh!" like that kinda scared... George at the mannequin girl: Ugh! Aaa-AH-AHHH! No! I don't like this! 🤣
The reason police sketches are so creepy is because they're supposed to exaggerate features to get them to stay in your head better
Andthe scariest ones are because they are decomposed and its harder to draw
you should search up lake bodom m*rders. they did a sketch of a guy with ALL his features exaggerated. and the fact is he looks exactly like his sketch. real creepy
That's a fun fact 👍
Proud of your world class display in the hide and seek George xxx
Me and my mate were so mad he got out first and James didn't win
I desperately wanted a former eboys member to win
Jm
@@RACCOON.RODENTZwdym he won
That vid is trash. 🤮
as someone who has also had a long time fear of the dream man, when he came up on screen i tried to cover my eyes with my hands so fast that i punched myself in the nose so thanks george 👍
Same 😂
That dream man scares the shit out of me though, when I played through the smile tapes on a livestream I laughed at him because he was a goofy man, but honestly he gives me the absolute chills. LikeI wanna look away but I can’t, I just look back at him wordlessly
Oi I have a friend who looks a bit like him
WHAT

it was a marketing campaign
I don’t think it’s been in my dreams
And why does the 'have you dreamt about this man' guy look like a baby painted in medieval times?
Agreed
I think it's just cause he's got a pretty generic face people feel like they've seen him before
Oh god, the absolute shared trauma of that scene in Doctor Who where the gas mask comes out of the guy's face 🤢😨
Please let me in mummy; I'm scared of the dark
I was more traumatised by the masks tbh.
uncanny valley is actually like one of my worst fears ever it makes me so nervous
Theory:
George secretly hid his face in this video and the reason he covers his face is because it is uncanny and will scare off viewers.
George is the dream man
2:17 take it back the cat is not ugly at all🔫 I love him
i swear the cat is so cute and has such an intense face reminds me of maine coons
REAL. When he called that sweet baby ugly i audibly gasped.
The police sketches are so terrifying to me because some of them are portraits
of the dead victims .
(im pretty sure)
so i cant look at them without feeling a little ill :(
Honestly same
i feel like whatever is under the mask, when we see it the uncanny valley response will be triggered to an extreme
That cat was adorable. It was smiling and everything.
There is also a more rational reason to uncanny valley (can’t remember if this is the actual reason though) and it’s that we evolved with this fear to stay away from dead corpses who could have carried diseases
The old lady faceswap at 6:20 actually jumpscared me a bit 😅
i still can’t believe you won the sidemen hide and seek contest
I love hearing you talk about death in paradise because I know exactly what episode it is and it is a fire show. It was the one with the voodoo lady suicide right?
Yes that episode death in paradise is a banger show
That episode is my favourite cause of that twist. Like I predicted 90% within like the first 10 mins and was about to be disappointed. When that reveal came on, I was shooketh!
Uncunny Valley? Leave my bedroom out of this.
LMAO
Georges face is uncanny, thats why he keeps the mask on
W rizzle
Very nice
i feel like george looks like something out of uncanny valley
Death In Paradise is sick. Lets Go!
I thought I was watching George reacting to Real ghost videos again at the beginning that stuff is creepy as hell
Dr who, death in paradise, I swear bro watches all the same shows as me
I don't feel anything when I'm looking at uncanny valley pictures or videos, so that's either concerning or a blessing
yeah me neither I thought I was strange 😭

Anyone else terrified by the face on the closet most of all?
I love Death in Paradise. Make sure you watch Beyond Paradise once you are caught up.

The absolute legend, he never misses, or something.
George is uncanny valley
Shit comment
I love Death in Paradise!! :)
Can’t lie the constant doctor who references got me going
Love this channel!
Uncanny Valley is why George won't show his face
I’m gonna have a lovely sleep tonight
Don't watch this video on your own in the dark
I made the mistake of watching this before sleep, i am now never sleeping again, thanks memulous
Personally, I like the “Ever Dreamed This Man” face, he’s like if Super Mario was a real boy, or if Pinocchio was made of skin.
As someone who recently watched some of the early episodes of the newer Doctor Who, I appreciate two references in one video
me when i see literally any one wearing glasses and a bandana
right before bed, thanks george x
Death in paradise was one of my mom's fav shows, somehow you bringing it up caught me very off guard lol

Death in paradise is a classic
'Probably a robot or something" literally Greta Thunburg
the man in the dream was a promotion for a horror film
death in paradise is so goated
One of the most famous examples of the uncanny valley in gaming is the secret message hidden within Sonic CD, with the deformed Sonics.
That gas mask zombie episode was one of the only things too properly, truley scare me as a kid
🎵Mummy, mummy 🎵
Are you my mummy?
Death in paradise is class
3:15 They identified her with that image. Alas I can’t remember her name, but they did find out who she was.
I remember that death in paradise episode, the one with the lime juice
WAKE UP GEORGE M HAS POSTED
YEEEESSS A FELLOW DEATH IN PARADISE FAAANNNN
When I was in uni, a flatmate told me I looked and acted like something out of the uncanny valley, until now I didn't know what it meant
Now we only get him twice a week than every day

Would you think too much uncanny valley exposure would glitch you into the backrooms?
Good thing you stopped there George. XD

The second picture wants to skip school under the ruse of a strike
Nahhhhh those fucking weird dummy things for unidentified bodies are fucking horrifying. Genuinely sends chills throughout my entire body
George at the start: You probably look at all these things and are _slightly_ scared. I'm not saying like going "Ahh! Argh! Ahh!" like that kinda scared...
George at the mannequin girl: Ugh! Aaa-AH-AHHH! No! I don't like this! 🤣
