"Understandably Mother Leeds was upset and cursed the unborn child" As you do. Not sure that helped the situation.

A tier list AND an iceberg? What unending joy

As a Michigan native, I'm so happy to hear you talk about the Dogman. I think your placing in the tier list is pretty fair, since, if I'm remembering correctly, the Dogman song that was written and played by the disc jockey was meant to be a joke/prank that grew to take on a life of its own.

I grew up in Wyoming (specifically Douglas, the hometown of the Jackalope) and the jackalope means so much to me personally. The original jackalope mount was put on display in the LaBonte hotel but it was stolen years and years ago, they never caught the guy.
Other fun 'facts' include:
- the current hunting season for them is only June 31st between midnight and 2am
- their milk is a powerful, sought-after aphrodisiac
- it's illegal to bait them with whiskey (a favorite of theirs)
- they can mimic human voices, mostly as self defense
you can still get hunting licenses for them at the Douglas visitor's center. there are also multiple 10+ foot tall statues of jackalopes around town

As an Australian I truly appreciate you making the distinction between Tasmania and Australia 😉

Excellent video, but, as an Australian I feel the need to make a few corrections about the Thylacine. Firstly, it’s pronounced “Thylaseen” secondly, the Thylacine is likely on the list, not because it’s a weird extinct animal, but because after it’s extinction there were many sightings of the creature, and even today many people still believe that there are some out there still. But aside from that, great video!

wendigoon could make a 5 hour iceberg about vacuum cleaners and id watch it on repeat for an entire year. thank you, Iceberg Boy.

Wendigoon is the only one who can make a 10 minute intro and not completely lose me

It’s been a pretty RAD ride watching Wendigoon go from thanking viewers individually for watching to where he is now. 🎉🎉 so dope! Bring the weird stuff! Let’s do it!

My favorite thing about the Loch Ness Monster is that in 2005, a group of MIT researchers decided to try to map the lake and hunt Nessie, but they instead found a random common toad just hanging around at 325 feet down in the water. They have no clue how he got down there, why he would have swam so far down, and it left them baffled that he could even survive such water pressure. He swam off and was never seen again.

I had anxiety issues in high school when I was required to give presentations in drama class. To counter this issue I found if I talk about things that I found interesting, and felt like I was well informed about the subject, I did better. I went for the shock and awe presentations which included unusual sky fall, spontaneous human combustion, and some other odd subjects I can't remember. Finally the teacher took me aside after class one day and asked me to do something that wasn't off. At that point I did a presentation on Regiment 51, the all African American regiment that fought in the Civil War. That was a fun subject to cover in rural southern Tennessee in the 90s back when we still very much had racism. I grew up and became an archaeologist that is still very much interested in the paranormal. I laughed when you mentioned your school research.

Tier list actually begins at 10:30. We love our wholesome verbose man but for those of us with ADHD, that's the point you wanna skip to.

nessie deserves the highest of tiers, without her we wouldn’t have “you named my daughter after the lochness monsterrrrr”

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR LIKE A YEAR

I love how the Loch Ness monster is described as docile and tourists show up with harpoon guns trying to ensure dinosaur extinction is complete.

As a Maine native, I've been going to the international cryptozoology museum at least once a year since i was like 7 and taken a picture with my dad next to their bigfoot statue to see how much I grow. It's what sparked my interest for all things weird. To hear Isaiah mention it and to have it be behind the iceberg of this new series has brought such a warm feeling to my heart, and a tear to my eye. Thank you, Isaiah. 12 years of golden memories have all just came back to me in a single moment.💜💜

I am actually surprised that this cryptid iceberg and cryptid tier list didnt happen sooner.

Congrats on getting #1 on trending, you deserve it! Hopefully, this allows more people to see this amazing work

Thank you, iceberg boy. For all the icebergs you do.

This was just all the homework Wendigoon had to do for the Red Thread, which you should all watch in the Official Channel! He just decided to share his analog boy study notes with us🙏

Hey wendingoon! I reckon the reason why the thylacine is on the list isn’t because it’s a weird animal that’s dead, but because there’s so much debate about whether it still exists in the wild or not! There’s so many alleged sightings and rumours and claims that there’s still wild thylacines running about, I’m not sure if anyone still believes them nowadays but it was genuinely a source of contention here in Australia and ig possibly NZ too (although not sure) and there were many efforts to find alive thylacines. There were also breeding programs to try and breed back thylacines, I’m not sure if any are still ongoing by this point.

I'm so happy the Cryptid iceberg is finally being made. I've watched a few cryptic iceberg videos, but after only seeing this video , I think yours will end up being my favorite.
You bring an element of personality to your iceberg videos, that many don’t do much. Christmas came early indeed.

I’m so ready for the 10 hour compilation of these videos

The true iceberg boy returns. Thanks so much for the consistent content wendigoon, your stuff always brightens up my day, especially during this turbulent year. You’ve also helped me be more comfortable and stronger in my faith. From the bottom of my heart thank you and God bless.

I remember I first found Wendigoon with his disturbing movie iceberg. It's so awesome to see how far he's come and how much he's grown since then. We love you Wendigoon ❤

Thank you for pointing out the origin of the Chupacabra. They've done my home island's cryptid so dirty over the years, hurts every time. Growing up in the mountains, I have always been told stories of the "reptilian bug eyed two legged sharp teeth blood sucker." Mixed between an iguana, insect and humanoid creature that would live in the mountains or plains, basically wherever there were chickens, pigs, or cows in the area. So seeing it being turned into just a "rabbid like dog" took away so much from it.

oh my god, I remember when your channel was just starting and you were doing the conspiracy theory iceberg! it feels so cool to see you back in action on another huge iceberg project again. Can't wait to hear about the goblin universe.

OH I AM SO READY FOR THIS SERIES! Please don't hold back, don't take shortcuts, we need CONTENT to listen to!! Thank you mr Wendi!

I’m an Iowan Native, from Van Meter, and I really hope to see the Van Meter visitor! Although trivial compared to some of the big players, it means a lot to my small town and our culture as a whole :) It’s also a pretty original story/monster in terms of things. Love you Wendigoon!!!

Mothman got some CAKE

The Thaylicline actually has some people believing it's been seen again in the wild though mostly elusive. So it's cryptid status is granted because it's possible there's a handful still out there somewhere.

I'm surprised this wasn't done before, it's probably the most on-brand thing for this channel

my psihology teacher in uni likes the occult and misteries so i told her to watch you, you truly make interesting stuff

This made me so so happy. I’ve watched sour previous iceberg videos multiple times and cryptids are one of my favourite topic…christmas came early haha ❤

I was so read to throw hands about Mothman's place in the tierlist but you never disappoint Mr Wendigoon

Fun fact about the Loch Ness Monster: A team of people were scanning the lake to try and find it, and they found what appeared to be exactly the monster laying on the bottom of the lake. However, it ended up being a massive monster prop from an old Sherlock Holmes movie that had been filmed there.

I have been waiting for this day since I first discovered this channel, I am so excited to see what the other tiers have to offer. Thank you Mr. Wednigoon.

I remember when you uploaded the first video on the conspiracy theory iceberg and I’ve been here ever since. I love your content and it’s got me through a lot of stuff. Thanks for making this.

I always get so excited whenever I get a notification from this channel! So excited to see more of this iceberg

I love cryptids. I don't care how unlikely they are, etc. I'd rather live life thinking there's some mystery out there. Great video!

A cryptids iceberg from Wendigoon?! The Christmas season truly has started!
I'm a massive cryptids fan, so this first tier was a nice appetizer, but I cannot wait for the next videos.
I also feel you on the doing monsters-based homeworks thing 😂
Just one thing though, I know in the video you said that you don't want to indulge too much on the credibility of their existence, but a nice little mention on the current opinion on them even from a scientific point of view would be nice I think. You already mentioned things like the Surgeon Photo being fake or the origins of the Jackalope and the Dogman, so some more in depth analysis of their plausibility wouldn't hurt I think. On this topic, several years ago researchers did an environmental-dna research on the Loch Ness lake and the results were quite interesting.

I love how the jackalope is a proven hoax yet made it out of N/A into B tier. Wendigoon is unapologetically himself and I love to see it.

This was fun. I’m so excited for this series 😊

this video being #1 on trending is amazing and also fully deserved

I love your cryptid based videos. Keep them coming!

Finally an iceberg! Just like the good old times. I found your channel thanks to your first iceberg videos and i’ve been craving an iceberg video from you ever since. I hope it’s a long one. Thanks Wendigoose man!

I'm undecided about whether I want to watch each part as they come out or if I want to listen to the supercut while working... Oh I know! I can just do both 😜

I am unable to express my pure, unbridled joy. When I was a kid, I was obsessed with cryptids, but there wasn’t too much information about them. Granted how much I enjoyed the conspiracy theory iceberg, I can’t wait for this to be done. May the rolling giant bless you with his kind eyes, Isaiah. Thank you.

I actually went to the the Portland Cryptid Zoology museum when they first touchdowned in Portland, the amount of stuff they have there is very interesting and cool. What was even better there is seeing all the cryptids that I didn't even know about, so having them do this iceberg will be the best way to show all the info to those who love cryptids in general

Aaaah I'll have to skip this one for now bc I'm doing my own work with a cryptid and mythological creatures iceberg. Wishing you the very best with this series!! 💜

I'm so excited for this! I saw that cryptid museum in Maine when I lived there for school and I've always been so fascinated by it. Thank you!!

Very excited for the rest of this series. I hoped you would mention the "Gable Film" in relation to the dogman. It's another definitive hoax but it scared the hell out of me when I was a kid.

wendigoon videos always leave me feeling thoroughly thanked and appreciated

man, seeing wendigoon go from a couple thousand subs just starting the conspiracy theory iceberg all the way to 3.26m subs, multiple collabs, AND the cryptid iceberg is just insane lmao. keep up the great work bro we're 100% here for it

wendigoon is one of the only youtubers who could make a video on ANYTHING & i'd still watch it

You make the most consistently great videos It always makes me feel better when you post

Whoever made this iceberg needs to be spoken to about their font choices… other than that its a very respectable iceberg, has a good amount i haven’t heard of either!

Living in Michigan, the Dogman scared the shit out of me as a kid. Seems pretty real when you know what the woods are like out here.

as someone who subscribed when the disturbing movie iceberg came out, i am SO thrilled for a new wendigoon iceberg

My mom once lied to me that she ran over the Goatman and ate his remains. I was more freaked out by her than the cryptid after that.

Looking forward to these, I've thought that cryptids were cool ever since I read through the cryptids Childcraft book in the 3rd grade. I don't even know if they still make Childcraft books, but we didn't have the internet in 1993, so seeing all the Cryptids in a book was cool. I was especially entertained by the idea of Mokele-membe

Only Wendigoon could drop a 35 minute video and it feels like an absurdly short video for a channel lol

I have filed my formal request for a 9 hour long iceberg video on different kinds of paint drying. Please and thank you iceberg boy. Love you, you're awesome and congratulations on your marriage 🎉

This is the best winter holiday gift you could have given us!! My home state has a slightly obscure local cryptid, I’m hoping it shows up! :D

I feel like I've been waiting a lifetime for this iceberg. ❤

As a Vermont native, I respect the D tier for Champ. I love horror and the mystery of cyptids, but Champ is just a little guy, he means no harm 💕

Really fun episode! Enjoyed this one a lot.

I remember seeing one of those jackalope head mounts as a kid and not knowing any better I thought it was real. The one I saw though had small, much more proportionately sized antlers though. Since I saw it as a kid, for years I always just assumed they were real creatures. Like, there’s deer with freakin fangs like a damn vampire, so why couldn’t there be a rabbit with horns. It wasn’t til like a decade later that I finally learned that jackalopes are not real. 😂😂

Almost a million views in less than 24 hrs 🎉 im so proud of you bro and apperciate all the effort and quality of work 👏

Love this sincerely. I've always had an interest in cryptids but looking them up can be kinda cumbersome since it's mostly either very shallow wikipedia articles or way too in the weeds 4chan threads so I can't wait for more of this.

Wendigoon!!! This couldn’t come at a better time, I’ve started planning a leg sleeve exclusively of cryptids so I’ve got so many ideas now!!

i remember finding wendigoon's channel when he had about 1500 subs, and watching his my chemical romance breakdown video. I remember the first conspiracy theory iceberg upload, and i remember seeing the numbers just grow, and keep on growing. Now having seen him get married, and grow so much and give us better and better content, its kind of like our own little community.

i somehow have never heard of champie but i’ve always been a nessie fan so the idea of her having extended family in the us just tickles me 😂

Watched all of Wendigoon's content within two weeks. Can confirm he's one cool dude

I was both equally dreading and excited about Wendigoon going into Cryptids when I first subscribed.

you also promised to continue the scp icebergs a year ago....
regardless, i am grateful. love your videos

Thank you for getting around to doing this. Been waiting on you doing this iceberg since you originally referenced it. Need this

Another Iceberg series??? Long live iceberg boy 🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️

Thank you for making your videos. I don't know how long I've been watching you channel but it's been a few years and you always make me smile. Thank you.

I love when you do icebergs!!!😊

Being around for the start of an iceberg after watching all of the other ice bergs makes me feel special

I personally think that your idea of cutting these icebergs into smaller parts is a great idea. I think it makes the videos more appealing to a potential new viewer, as opposed to a nine hour mega video

Dude so fun, thanks Wendi boi 🤠I just want to binge all the cryptid iceberg videos right now, looking forward to the next

this past week has been awful. so glad i can sit down for 30 mins to watch some wendigoon. appreciate everything u do man

glad to see iceberg boys back doing what he does best

As a Sasquatch I greatly appreciate the shout-out and A tier listing. I can also assure you we are rather harmless. In fact most of us walk amongst you and you don't even know it. You didn't hear that from me though😉

My favorite spine chilling cryptids are Dark Watchers (shadowey people seen in groups watching you from the horizon line) and Hide Behinds (a creature perfectly able to hide behind Anything, contorting and creeping closer and closer until it kills you)
Edit- the contorting is a personal speculation for addrd creepiness but however they do it, its scary

Awesome video, as always! Do you think once all the parts are out you'll stitch them into one big video like you did with that one series I cant remember the name of? (Sorry lol)

As someone from Maine who plans on making spooky content, this is fun to see

I like how the internet collectively decided to call Wendi Iceberg Boy, the most honorable title ever

"Chupacabra" was the name my friends and I gave to a shot we invented about 10-15 years ago. It's a very simple yet devastating recipe consisting of 1 part tequila and 1 part Jagermeister.
While it doesn't drain blood like the cryptid, it does seem to drain your soul and leaves only blurry memories of the encounter. Not recommended for anyone but the bravest and most experienced of cryptid hunters.

I remember talking with a friend about the possibility that Mothman has some hypnotic ability or maxed out charisma stats or something because we've never met anyone, from the obsessed to the casual, who see Mothman and think of him as anything less than the coolest cryptid in school.

Iceberg boy finally did the iceberg I was most excited for! Thank you Iceberg boy ❤

I love this video and can’t wait for part 2!

Hi Wendigoon! You should checkout "The Department of Truth" comic book. It's about a secret organization that tries to stop conspiracy theories because if enough people believe them they become real. It covers a lot of famous ones, including cryptids. The artwork is amazing and it's second arc is starting soon.

Great video Wendigoon! Minor correction - as a Kiwi I have to sadly report that the thylacine did not live in New Zealand. Our only native land mammals before human settlement were bats!

You know it's gonna be good when the iceberg starts 10 minutes in lmao
Jokes aside, amazing work!

The Michigan Dogman was first seen in the 1800s by a couple of lumberjacks and natives have talked about them and Bigfoot in their culture. I think they should have been at least a B Tier List cause they’re quite fascinating. My friend has actually seen one and that was in Jersey lol so I think they exist for sure.

So excited for more of this iceberg!
