Mystery Flesh Pit National Park

"humans aren't stupid enough to visit a place where the bodies of dead people are used as trail markers!" Mount Everest: Yeah, you see, about that....

32:10 Imagine telling your kids you met their mom while you were both bathing inside the hormones of a giant Lovecraftian creature turned into a national park

The creepiest part of this is how children are naturally frightened of going into the pit and how the corporation had to put so much effort into making seem OK.

"98.6 degrees, and 100% humidity." Ah, Florida.

Imagine lying down for a nap, and then you get a really bad stomach ache. And you wake up, and ants have just made little tiny mounds all over your back and are actively crawling in your mouth and down your throat. I have leveled up and unlocked: A new Nightmare

The 70s and 80s were wild times. You never hear about a person from the 1950s or 1990s digging up a giant Lovecraftian horror to turn into a themepark.

Can you imagine humans coming across like prints or something of this ARG a few hundred years down the road, and being absolutely terrified trying to figure if this is real.

Fun fact: mastication means chewing. Chewing. Those poor bastards were caught between some sort of teeth down there.

“Dad how did you meet mom?” “Well son I met her in the flesh pit thermal springs”

Much like deadly incidents in real life, the flesh pit catastrophe was the culmination of many smaller failures and poor decisions snowballing into a disaster greater than the sum of its parts. It all lends a vital touch of believability to an otherwise fantastical event. MFP has excellent immersion and world building in general, and the creator deserves so much props for that.

About halfway through reading his page on it, I decided I felt worse for the Pit than the people who went in there. Even if the individual tunneling was relatively tiny, imagine all of these basically parasites digging bits out of you, putting stuff in you and even doing the deed inside you. Not fun

horrific flesh pit: "i sleep" 13 dollar bottle of water: "real shit?"

Things like this are proof that Hollywood isn't out of ideas. People are just scared to take a risk.

42:02 yo the "petting zoo with the declawed lobsters" is a fuckin crazy sentence bro

Imagine you're taking a nap and suddenly you cough after what you think is accidentally inhaling some spit, and then realize you can't close your mouth and then suddenly you puke. All this while you're still groggy af because you were just sleeping.

To be fair, if people built an entire giant shopping mall inside me, filmed freaking...adult funtimes films inside of me and sold them in the gift shop of said mall, AND named parts of my anatomy things like "God's Mistake"...I'd be kinda pissed off too!

This would have been the perfect 80s horror movie. The corporate cynicism, the bodyhorror, the satire. I could have seen John Carpenter direct this.

I like the reason things went wrong sound like something completely realistic. Marketing/customer service folks allowing people to stay in the park after hours, trying to do the whole "customer is always right" thing but not aware of security or engineering aspects that make it dangerous, while you have more work crews on the other side trying to make numbers and unaware that there's already a power strain. Classic case of the left hand doesn't know what the right hand's doing, and is more realistic then some CEO purposely risking lives for a few more bucks.

watching this 2 years later and the horror of 13$ for a water bottle didnt even faze me...
