  • Gets car stuck in the snow "Oh, man... it doesn't get much worse than that!" Has heart attack "Okay it got worse"
  • @blueboi5140
    "They didn't make it back home that night." Oh yeah Nexpo? You think im watching this to hear about some dudes that went home and had a basketball game.
  • @yp2kk
    now imagine shones had passed away from that heart attack, and in addition to the 5 missing, there would also be an unexplained dead body just sitting on the same road
  • @Furchee
    This dude sure loves this "dramatic" pauses, holy
  • @alsohedge6537
    This is the darkest “Me and the boys” story I’ve heard
  • @Luna-ry8lv
    Imagine getting stuck in a forest in winter, getting a heart attack and witnessing people disappear strangely. I would have lost my mind
  • @GothicPurple
    Considering the untouched food and heating supplies, I think it's more likely that Huet and Mathias left the cabin soon after they arrived, dropping a few things off (including Wire) and assuming they'd return with help within a few hours since the cabin was a mark of civilization in the area. Unfortunately on this treck to go get help they would get lost and die, leaving Wire, who lacked any sense of self preservation, alone for months to starve to death.
  • @rileybanks1191
    The depressing part of this to me is that (most likely) at least a few of them stayed alive in that cabin for a few months, long after the authorities had left them for dead. Had the search continued, there was a decent chance they would've been found alive. I fully acknowledge that they were having trouble with the snow, but it's just... *fuck*.
  • @SnugLife
    I thought my internet actually got messed up lmao
  • @thebigfish2420
    My phone is ridiculously faulty, so when you did that glitch thing I assumed that it finally gave up after 8 years of service
  • @azynkron
    Don't forget that Hypothermia causes your brain to start to shut down together with that your body starts to feel hot. This is why people do irrational things and also start to take of their clothes at the end.

    After revisiting this video, I decided to look into the incident more and found a really good podcast called Yuba Country Five by Mopac Audio. After doing so I'm both thoroughly convinced of 2 things: 1. The authorities involved in the search didn't do nearly enough to find these men while claiming that they were doing all they could. A forest service employee stated that he had told them about the trailer at the start of the search which they claimed they checked. Obviously they didn't and they lied to save face. 2. Joseph Shones is full of shit. Multiple people familiar with him claimed he was constantly spinning tall tales and mouthing off insane stories to anyone who'd listen to him while he listed to the sound of his own voice. Almost every time he recounted his story it changed in some way or another to the point where he got his own story wrong when sitting down with the families of the boys. As one of the investigators put it, he was an unreliable narrator. All in all, this is a really great video and it does get pretty much everything right as far as I can corroborate from the podcast, the best videos on stories like these are the one's that make you dig deeper out of interest.
  • @bludowski
    commonly known as "the boys." every group of guys ever
  • My mans has a fucking heart attack, recovers from it, and walks eight miles to a lodge after said heart attack
  • @DizzyedUpGirl
    It's funny that the "glitch" is the most replayed part.
  • @wanye8438
    While there are a lot of horror content creators out there, Nexpo's videos just hits different.
  • @aubreyterry9453
    My man just casually had a heart attack and recovered in a few hours by himself.
  • @normanm11
    “A cold one with the boys” had never had a more sinister meaning before.
  • I'm sitting in a well lit, pretty busy office at 10am with only one headphone in and your sound design STILL gave me goosebumps. very well done man
