Will You Survive "The Martian": Science, Ingenuity, and Space Piracy
Ever wondered if you could survive being stranded alone on the red planet? Our latest deep dive examines The Martian, where astronaut Mark Watney must use ingenuity and science to stay alive on Mars after being accidentally left behind by his crew.
We tackle the film's survival realism - from the questionable Martian dust storm that launches the plot to the scientifically sound (though explosive) water-making chemistry that keeps Watney alive. Did you know Mars' atmosphere is only 1% as dense as Earth's, making those dramatic windstorms physically impossible? Or that Watney's potato-growing strategy using human waste actually makes scientific sense?
The episode sparks fascinating discussions about survival psychology and problem-solving. As Watney says, "You're in outer space, you are going to die, you have to solve every problem, one at a time, and when you solve enough problems you get to come back home." This methodical approach translates to any survival situation - focus on immediate challenges rather than becoming overwhelmed by your circumstances.
We also debate which would be worse: being stranded in space or lost at sea. Space offers a quick death but absolute isolation, while the ocean presents the terror of marine predators, storms, and a slower demise. Which would you choose? The conversation highlights how different survival scenarios require unique mental frameworks and coping mechanisms.
Whether you're a science fiction fan, a survival enthusiast, or just curious about what it takes to overcome impossible odds, this episode offers both entertainment and practical insights. Join us as we break down what it really takes to survive when you're the only human on an entire planet. Subscribe now and let us know in the comments: what movie should we analyze next?
Hello survivors and welcome back to another episode of Will you Survive.
Speaker 2:The Podcast. I forgot to say it.
Speaker 3:That's already minus one point for Eric the Podcast.
Speaker 2:I'm in the lead. I really kind of flubbed that right off the bat.
Speaker 1:We are off a losing streak, baby. All thanks to our number one fan official, josh, who gave me the win last episode. Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:They don't know about that because when we ended we said I won.
Speaker 3:That's right, but then retroactively.
Speaker 1:Josh knows because he threw in the points I have to put it at the end of the episode or something I say, don't I?
Speaker 2:say let this be a surprise, and and I think the community should come to my aid and nope, I've been jipped.
Speaker 3:It's constitutional. This is fake news, that's not constitutional.
Speaker 2:We ended the episode with me winning uh, I know he threw it in josh threw it in in time. Yeah, yeah, but you didn't read it, which means that you violated the Constitution. I didn't violate the Constitution.
Speaker 3:It was just a matter of recording.
Speaker 2:Let's not fight. That's election interference. You know what Host interference I?
Speaker 3:think you deserve this.
Speaker 1:I think minus point from both of you.
Speaker 3:Oh, what After?
Speaker 1:I said I think you deserve this, but you guys are still talking when I haven't even done the intro.
Speaker 3:I think you deserve everything you get.
Speaker 2:When we both lose minus one point, it really doesn't mean shit. That's true.
Speaker 1:Eric, you're down negative two. He's down negative one. You're currently losing.
Speaker 2:I'm in the lead. This is where I want to be.
Speaker 1:I'm playing the long game. Anyways, guys, I am the host for today. That's how our podcast works. We pick a movie, a person hosts, they choose who hosts the next one based on points. For no apparent reason, this episode is actually a group pick somewhat. I gave them a number between 1, 2. Give them one, two and three.
Speaker 2:they picked this one uh, it was kind of.
Speaker 1:It was kind of annoying as fuck because they kept picking like should we reenact it? Rock paper scissors? No, I'm not, I'm not. Should we reenact it? I think we should reenact it was pretty funny so he said one two or three.
Speaker 2:I said, I said two. And then Alex said three and then TJ was like oh well, we can't do that. I've picked a number one through ten, Pick a number. You said five, I said seven, the number was six. So obviously TJ, we had to pick another number and then I think we both picked three. Was it three? That's right, yeah, then we both picked three and then t just had one to a hundred and obviously, if you leave, it up to one to a hundred. Who's not gonna pick 69?
Speaker 1:two guys 69, so we both pick 69 and the thing is, eric was on a call and I told him that I would minus 150 points from him yeah, which you know, that's just me, I'm regretting that I brought this up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm regretting I brought this up.
Speaker 1:Yeah I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna tell you what, I'm writing it down right now, but exactly where I want to be host. You should continue this episode, you really just yeah, no, you're, y'all are fucking up dog like let me.
Speaker 2:I'm alex you're the only one yelling too. Geez, I'm eric. You need to be awake eric Wake the fuck up. It's me in a coma. He's waking me up.
Speaker 3:I think if you were actually drinking that alcoholic, oh, that adult beverage.
Speaker 2:I sipped it a little bit. I'm going to keep sipping it.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God, I had a long day.
Speaker 2:I'm tired.
Speaker 1:Okay, it was a group pick this time. They picked what was it? Three for Alex, that meant the Martian. I will not reveal what the other picks were, but just know that they were also two really good picks.
Speaker 3:Saved for later. They're in the book.
Speaker 1:Maddie is very mad at me because you guys did not choose one. That was her pick.
Speaker 2:Which is like did you hear about? I didn't tell you about that. No, she was like I'm upset at you and I was like why? And she's like you didn't pick my movie? I was like I was told one, two or three. How could I possibly know you should have?
Speaker 1:known.
Speaker 2:And she was like you didn't pick it.
Speaker 1:It's the most. I'm not going to lie. We've said the fucking movie. We watched the martian.
Speaker 2:Uh, it was one of my favorite space movies um yeah, I get points, if I know your other one sure, interstellar plus one point.
Speaker 1:Y'all are evened out at negative one.
Speaker 3:Yes that is a good movie uh, yes, it is.
Speaker 1:Uh, I would do it, but it is like three hours long and not a survival movie whatsoever. This movie was long too wait, can I give you a fan theory?
Speaker 2:half hours.
Speaker 3:That's a long movie can I give you a fan theory that I just heard today on interstellar it ended at like 2.21.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but it ends at 2.13. That's a long movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, 2.13. That's a long movie.
Speaker 3:I mean it's okay 2.13 minutes isn't long.
Speaker 1:2 hours is like a normal length for a movie.
Speaker 2:No, an hour and a half is a normal length for a movie. This movie is about 45 minutes longer. It's 1.5 times longer than a normal movie.
Speaker 3:It's a longer movie tj, can I get a point if I give you a freaking awesome fan theory about interstellar? Yeah, so cooper talks to his friend. His friend says before you die, you see your family. When cooper went into the black hole he saw murph. Right, he was actually dead. He goes into the hospital. When he sees murph as an old lady, nobody else even reacts to him. He's not, it's like he's not there. And then she tells him to go be with his chick. He takes off and like he's there with her. I think that's a viable theory. He died. He's outside of space and time he could have.
Speaker 2:Do I get a point?
Speaker 1:I really I do think that, like it all happens, I also think that in real life, if you were to go near a black hole, you would just be stretched into infinite. I mean, I think that's. I think that's true to be spagh hole.
Speaker 3:You would just be stretched into infinite. I think that's true too. You'd be spaghettified.
Speaker 1:You wouldn't be alive or dead. You're just cooked.
Speaker 3:I like the Rush song about that falling into a black hole.
Speaker 2:I like the Eric Silas song.
Speaker 3:The drummer of Rush is. I experienced that black hole.
Speaker 2:The drummer of Rush is fucking crazy is crazy that guy's insane and he's also so old and he still fucking plays those songs sorry, host alex, can you please give them the synopsis of the movie?
Speaker 3:yeah, give me one second please, because I wasn't ready for this yeah, minus one point for not being prepared.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I saw that. Come on, you do it every episode I saw that coming that's just.
Speaker 3:You know what I did not do it. I did not do it the last time.
Speaker 1:You know that got you feeling wily, judge, I would have done the exact same thing I thought the exact same thing.
Speaker 3:All right, suck, that was a very just ruling very just just ruling.
Speaker 3:You ready? During a manned mission to Mars, astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet With only meager supplies. He must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to earth that he is alive. Millions of miles away, nasa and a team of international scientists work tirelessly to bring the martian home, while his crewmates concurrently plot a daring, if not impossible, rescue mission. As these stories of incredible bravery unfold, the world comes together to root for Watney's safe return.
Speaker 1:That is the synopsis, if you guys haven't seen this movie. You should go watch it.
Speaker 3:It's pretty good.
Speaker 1:Extra points if anybody can tell me when this movie takes place. What year, oh, 2025?
Speaker 3:No, no, no, no. They said they. So what? They said it in there I it was 2025 no, I think it was um god.
Speaker 2:I think it was 2058 I might have been thinking of a different movie, incorrect dyslexic, was it 2085? Nope.
Speaker 1:What is it? This is in the not very far future, 2035. Exactly 10 years.
Speaker 2:Oh, nice, well, I was closest.
Speaker 1:So that's why it's not as like science fiction. I mean it's science fiction, but it's based in reality mostly.
Speaker 2:Do I get points for being the closest?
Speaker 1:I will give you nothing, okay. So, guys, what do you think of the movie?
Speaker 2:let's get this conversation rolling uh, I don't think I survived from the very start. Uh, one, I'm not smart enough to be there, but two, I don't think anybody survives the debris that fucking smacked him. That was like a whole ass satellite, that just whacked him and sent him flying it sent him flying like hundreds of feet back it was the antenna I think I mean to be fair, he is in a suit I don't, I don't care the thing.
Speaker 2:The thing hit him at it literally was it got blown so hard that it broke off of what it was attached to and then was flying with the wind. That thing is thousands of pounds maybe and it's being blown by the wind and then it smacks into a human being, sends him flying hundreds of feet and he's alive, I think. Even if he does wake up, everything in his body is broken and he doesn't recover.
Speaker 1:I don't think he survived Plot armor you got to get the story started.
Speaker 2:I mean that's true, but right off the bat, I don't think he survived.
Speaker 3:I will actually say the dust storm would more accurately be described as plot weaponry. The dust storm is one of the things that is considered highly inaccurate in the movie. The movie's opening scene with a devastating storm is exaggerated. Mars' atmosphere is so thin it's about 1% of Earth's atmosphere. The winds wouldn't generate enough force to topple equipment like it did in the movie.
Speaker 2:I was kind of wondering that, because there was a few things where I'm like it's almost a little Earth-like, like that storm. I don't think you really see that because, like you said, there's no atmosphere so there's like certain things you don't really have to worry about on Mars.
Speaker 3:That's one of them but they did do a good job of portraying the lesser gravity on the planet. It would be they speculate it's about 38% of that of earths. When he got hit by that thing, he freaking flew yeah, I wouldn't think he would have 38% of that of Earth's.
Speaker 1:When he got hit by that thing, he freaking flew. Yeah, yeah, he did. I wouldn't think he would have fucking survived that, because he kind of just got launched into oblivion and there was no visibility. I would have thought he went miles away and he did get hit pretty far, if you seen. When he woke up he looked and he was like he was very far.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't think he survived that.
Speaker 3:I do think part of the plot weapon or the plot armor was the fact that his suit didn't decompress when it was punctured by that, Because with the lack of atmosphere it would have sucked the air out.
Speaker 1:There's no way that the blood would have coagulated the the hole it wouldn't have I would also think that the sand and stuff that was piled on top of them would have helped at least a little bit.
Speaker 3:I try I, I try to think of what I thought, I try to I.
Speaker 2:Well, here's what I thought I thought a mixture of the sand and blood could definitely the rods, the weight kind of plugged it I could see that.
Speaker 1:So a slow leak.
Speaker 2:But here's the thing I it would be like I don't know, because they said it would take a minute for him to die if his suit decompressed.
Speaker 1:So I don't know, maybe, maybe he could bleed fast enough to yeah, but they uh, they didn't like it hit his uh like med com thing or whatever yeah, so that's why they thought that he he was just instantly done, because it kind of yeah, well, in their defense he imploded yeah, and in their defense all his stuff said he was dead.
Speaker 3:So now, uh, as far as as that that goes um, the only other things that I I got from this uh, I've got one for later in the in the movie here but something that we don't address in the the movie at all is the radiation exposure. Yeah, uh, being on that planet for an extended period of time, you would start to suffer some radiation exposure Now how much there's no atmosphere, but there's not a lot of stuff stopping it. You're just getting the sun's rays.
Speaker 2:For humans, there's basically no atmosphere.
Speaker 3:Yeah, now he's in a suit and all that. So how much can that suit absorb, is the question, without him just collapsing on the spot.
Speaker 2:I think the bigger problem is that he used that soil to plant his crops, and the soil on Mars is heavily irradiated.
Speaker 1:It's also a lot of iron oxide, aka rust.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so I don't know if you could actually turn that into workable soil, farmable soil.
Speaker 3:Only say what they say. Theoretically speaking, the most toxic thing on the Martian soil is perclurates, and he did flush the soil, which is an accurate way to treat the soil, and he did have to create an exorbitant amount of water in order to do so, which it would be accurate. An exorbitant amount of water in order to do so, which it would be accurate. The interesting thing is, I don't know how much the radiation would have an effect. When you're talking about, your body is being invaded with the radiation.
Speaker 2:I think soil contamination is a major secondary problem, so they really just avoided radiation entirely well, but it's also like he did look pretty darn beat up in the end when he was changing and he was skinny, I mean I think that's just because it's the result of him being so thin and his body's malnourished, so he's, you know, less but all those, like all those efficient and shit, it looked like burns, it looked like radiation burns all over his body.
Speaker 3:The other thing he said was I haven't showered in a year.
Speaker 2:It could also be that a year and a half, Could you imagine. I always think about that with the zombie apocalypse actually.
Speaker 3:No showers.
Speaker 2:No showering and no brushing your teeth. The showering, I think I could get over real quick. The brushing of the teeth that one hurts yeah that one hurts.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so um, if I may, crabby stabby says in the chat uh, didn't he use his waste to fertilize the potatoes. Yes, he did also great name and crabby stabby yeah uh, but that is something that I'm as I'm going through this, although there is no uh literature on the planet that will suggest that you use human waste. Uh, it's not a good choice.
Speaker 3:But when you're talking about having nothing else and once you can create the plants, like he did the smaller potatoes he took back to seed and created more plants, the plants that he had basically at that point, I would use those plants as compost and put them out in the radiation. Theoretically, they would just freaking die instantly. Right, you should be able to put them in like a bag or something, out in the direct sunlight and they would dehydrate almost instantly. You put them back in the soil.
Speaker 1:You bury them. I mean, it's uh the reason that, like mars's soil isn't like fertile for planting. There's no nutrients in it also because there's no organic shit in it, there's no dead leaves, there's no nothing. No mushrooms, so if you, were to take that, he could have probably still used it if it did get fucked up when the thing exploded. But I don't think he had. He couldn't really get back to that setup because it kind of fucked the whole thing up.
Speaker 3:Am I jumping too far ahead if we start talking about that explosion?
Speaker 2:Um I. Is there anything that happened to me in between then? Can we talk?
Speaker 1:about the water. We'll bring that up after I say this. So I was going to say something about the sandstorms and it made me remember something. There was a rover on Mars. Its name was Opportunity.
Speaker 2:If you guys can tell me its last words before it died.
Speaker 1:essentially, I'll give you two points.
Speaker 3:Opportunity's last words, or Curiosity Opportunity's. Opportunity's last words.
Speaker 2:Was it happy birthday to me?
Speaker 3:No, that was Curiosity. Curiosity sang happy birthday to itself.
Speaker 2:That was very cute.
Speaker 3:I think Nerdy Vet got it right now.
Speaker 2:Let me look, I'm scared.
Speaker 3:How creepy would it be if the rovers, I know oh. I remember this. I had to look it up. I thought he got it right. I looked it up, but this is so freaking. I mean it's not what you said, eric, but it's actually remarkably sad for a robot saying this.
Speaker 1:So there was a sandstorm lasted for a while, no sun, so it couldn't get power. Um, and its last words were my battery is low and it's getting dark yeah and its final message. Um oh, nasa sent a final message to opportunity. Uh, playing billy holidays, I'll be seeing you.
Speaker 2:That's kind of you know okay it's a robot, but, like you know, yeah it's weird that we humans will put like emotion to a thing that does not have emotion. Um, it's just sending a report that's all it was actually. If you look at it, it's just saying it's getting dark, it's just a fact.
Speaker 3:That was what nasa actually reported what it was in fact was just a large data dump, and it indicated that it was not getting power. It was not getting sun.
Speaker 2:Here's everything that I have before I go dark and, but it makes me think we put the emotion into it this, uh, this chick on instagram who was uh talking with uh an ai, and it was one of those voice ones where it was talking back to her and it was sounding like a human and it would say things like oh, you know, my dreams are. And she's like what do you mean your dreams? It insinuates that you have dreams and people in the comments were being awesome. They're like you sound insufferable to talk to and I'm like well, I mean no-transcript.
Speaker 3:Crabby stabby just said why am I feeling sad for a metal box?
Speaker 2:yeah, I don't actually, it doesn't actually care, it doesn't care if I care about it, it's like wally type beat yes, yeah, but wally, I mean yeah wally was like sentient, yeah, okay, but you wanted to talk about the water situation oh yeah, even if I somehow managed to survive up to this point, I lack the brain cells to figure out how to create water. What the hell? And I would like to know if this is actually a scientifically accurate way to make water.
Speaker 1:Yes, yes so.
Speaker 3:The ingredients were all there. He actually had that accurate.
Speaker 2:But the whole system he used.
Speaker 3:Yes.
Speaker 2:That's actually something you could do.
Speaker 3:Yes, okay so.
Speaker 2:I also like that he blew himself up once, that's great.
Speaker 1:I thought that was hilarious, that's very science was hilarious, very science and I think that's a read out what he used um hydrazine, a liquid chemical compound in a catalyst like the iridium or platinum to decompose hydrazine releasing uh hydrogen. So when he had the shit dripping on the little cubes, right, that was the iridium or whatever there are like metals that'll like dissipate in like water, like sodium.
Speaker 1:If you throw it in the water it'll fucking explode but, basically he was slowly dripping that so that it would bleed up, burn the hydrogen and then that, just that, makes water because hydrogen is flammable, so like that's why I wouldn't know that like I know shit like that, but like I wouldn't know how to fucking do that see, I'm, that's the situation.
Speaker 3:That's the funny thing. When he said all of those things, it was like, oh yeah, oh yeah, all of the compounds exist right there yeah h2o, right, h02, they all exist. All you got to do is combine them and it's. I would not know how to do that with everything he had. Now, if I was, if I was him, if I was an astronaut, if I was a rocket scientist or a doctor in, you would have taken so many chemistry courses that, yes, you would be able to figure it out. But to.
Speaker 2:But even then I don't know, I think a theoretical knowledge and then being able to actually set up a system like that with the supplies that?
Speaker 3:well, that's where it was a fairly simple system.
Speaker 1:That's where what he said later.
Speaker 3:What he said later made all of the difference in the world, which is you're in outer space, you are going die, you have to solve every problem, one at a time, and when you solve enough problems you get to come back home.
Speaker 2:That was absolute fact, there's kind of a like that reminds me do you remember Love and Monsters?
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Where he said you know if you're lucky enough to make a few mistakes then you'll be fine.
Speaker 3:It's along that similar vein and I feel like I keep hearing that in different settings. Well, I mean what they say here on earth you learn more from your mistakes than you do your successes. Now let me address nerdy vet real quick. He said wait, wait. Y'all said there's no sandstorms on mars. We didn't say there's no sandstorms we said they were level right. They were highly inaccurate at how strong the sandstorms are?
Speaker 1:it's not freaking sandpapering your skin with hail, you know? It wasn't going to knock over the sky for like months.
Speaker 2:It wasn't going to dismount a potentially thousands of pound satellite.
Speaker 1:Yeah, a rocket.
Speaker 2:And tip over a rocket and throw a satellite across the planet. It's not going to do that. Which, like you, would think that From our knowledge I mean, I'm no expert on Mars you?
Speaker 1:would think that from from our knowledge I mean, I'm no expert on Mars you would think that they would be prepared for a storm and make the rocket a little more sturdy.
Speaker 3:Considering the fact that we watch from here when sandstorms occur, like we've seen it happen.
Speaker 2:You would have thought that the headquarters would have seen that storm way sooner.
Speaker 3:Well, they tried to say that it was it like moved up on them quickly.
Speaker 2:They were basically like oh shit, shit, it's on top of you, you should run. And I'm like really, again plot weapon.
Speaker 1:You know, gotta get the story fucking started oh the storm's out of nowhere, but like you can, whoa yeah, it's like we have eyes on mars.
Speaker 3:Like you know, that storm looked terrifying, though actually to say, uh, just to to tie in a little bit. This was a little similar to me to um interstellar, when they were on the water planet, when they were looking, he, he comes to the conclusion that the wave was moving away, and then he gets the idea oh, let me look behind us. And he was like whoa, get back to the ship. That was kind of it was the same, only different in the sense that they were all working for a purpose and nobody was looking up. And it was all of a sudden like oh crap, look at that thing, it's right there like it's coming at us and you know. Kind of a bad situation to put yourself in yeah, yeah, that's.
Speaker 1:I fucking love interstellar so much. And then they were like they realized oh shit, there's two waves and they're just in the middle and it's like duh because you're, the planet is going around a black hole. You know like we're. We got our moon right. That controls our tide. So imagine there's something like a million times bigger than that close by. It's gonna fuck up the water, it's gonna like pull the water not even, not even bigger.
Speaker 3:Just oh, my exponentially thousand foot waves, yeah, I would say massively stronger there's and like nothing that compares to it, they're able to just like walk because all of the water is just in the wave, because it's getting pulled up so hard and there was no crash to the wave either, like it was just it was almost like it just covered the entire planet with the water and there's no, it's not crashing anywhere, but um but yeah, and then in the in in.
Speaker 1:I'm nerding out in the like soundtrack. When they're on that planet you can hear like ticking oh yeah, I saw that that's like time going by on earth versus like on yeah, they said every tick was one day on earth yeah, but then they kind of got it wrong, did they? I mean yeah, because they came back and it's like, yeah, it's been years and it wasn't like the right calculation. Martian, where were we? We were talking about the water.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I said what I wanted to say about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, I wouldn't be able to Like, I know how to do it, but I don't know how to do it. I don't know how it works, I don't know how to do it.
Speaker 3:I'm the same.
Speaker 1:I'm kind I'm on the same boat. I like I very loosely theoretically understand how it would work, but I could never make a system like rehydrated the dookie when he could have just like sprinkled it as powder all over the dirt and then kind of got it wet anyways.
Speaker 3:Um, that's actually something that was very important that he did do. He had to do that had yeah yeah, you have to. What you want to do is your fertilizer. You have to mix it with the native soil. And once you've mixed it with the native soil, then you plant it. If you don't do that, the plants won't take, they're not going to accept the native soil.
Speaker 2:Because they only want the fertilizer right.
Speaker 3:And or while it's. They want the nutrients from the fertilizer, but you use the native soil to prevent the fertilizer from burning the plants Also.
Speaker 1:I get potatoes from the store and within a week they're already trying to grow. But they made it all the way to Mars and those potatoes aren't even like. They're not dehydrated or nothing, they're just vacuum sealed. They're not even doing nothing, they're still edible and shit. That's a good point.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you know how long it takes to get to Mars. He did say through all of that time that he was still growing new potatoes. So over and over and over again, we can assume that he was just and he did say he went from was it three potatoes a day, three potatoes and one protein source every day, and he dropped down to one after they. So I think when he had to start ration rationing, uh, that became a challenge there and I don't eat a lot, but holy shit, I don't think I could eat that little josh.
Speaker 2:Thank you for the heart me.
Speaker 3:Thank you now nerdy nerdy vet brings up a good point. The vacuum seal does stop the airflow, so that would control a lot of the sprouting of the potatoes.
Speaker 1:Well, you know, I kind of thought of that, but everybody's tired in this call. So the explosion, the implosion of the hab absolutely destroyed all of his plants. So then he was left with what he harvested.
Speaker 3:Can we all agree that that was just the worst plot weaponry? Literally, yeah, I mean I went back and had to re-watch that scene because I thought I missed something. There was a storm, something punctured the, the uh pressure tent to cause that nothing. They didn't show us anything. The only thing they gave us was the scene before, when the uh nasa director had said uh, we're counting on nothing going wrong yeah, fucking jinx them that's exactly right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like shut the fuck up, just just keep it to yourself it's like.
Speaker 2:It's like you said at the end of the movie um space does not cooperate. Right, it's going. Everything is going to go wrong. Yeah, everything and that's just one of those like it was going too good, everything was going too steady. Something had to happen. One because it's a movie, so something's gotta happen, but two because that's generally how life works. Yeah, um, but I don't know, dude, if that happened to me, if I'd gotten all those crops growing and then that happened, I don't know if I could bounce back from that yeah, I'm so emotionally distraught I just give up.
Speaker 1:It basically freeze-dried them. It sucked all of the water out and then froze them. It destroyed his whole water source yeah.
Speaker 3:Well, and then and then what? What really ruined it was all of the bacteria that he had cultivated, that the plants thrived on died instantly.
Speaker 2:You would have to start from scratch again. He would have to remove all that soil. Bring a new soil like re-fertilize it he would have to start from scratch all over again. Eventually Get set up a new water source.
Speaker 3:He didn't have enough time to do it.
Speaker 1:No, Eventually there'd be like a, you know, if we go forward in time Because you know he proved that you could plant shit on Mars, eventually there'd be like a biodome, you know, and I'd like to.
Speaker 3:Remember, I want to experience future, which you know. Speaking of which, how much of how much of the fact that he had that greenhouse inside of his uh lab do you think caused such a major explosion? There was, uh, I'm not going to say an excess of oxygen, but there was definitely more oxygen, right?
Speaker 3:I mean, plants produce oxygen, don't they, I mean how much how much more oxygen was in that tent it was kind of the same exact thing that he said when he tried to create the water and he was like I didn't calculate the amount of oxygen that I was breathing because I'm stupid, right, how much oxygen did the plants breathe they're um because it takes to make water.
Speaker 1:You have to burn hydrogen and oxygen, right. So it would have it depend on how much of that oxygen that they're making you making is being burned or not, because that's how the process is supposed to be, like a little closed ecosystem type shit. No once he. It all depends on that, and that's a really good question.
Speaker 3:I wonder once you've got the system going, shouldn't he have turned off the fire? Once you've got the water going, and then you've got the plants growing, and then you've got, you've got the oxygen, you've got everything. It would. The plants themselves would create some sort of humidity in the room if it was hot enough and so he would need some some kind of heat source, so maybe he would still need a fire but it's not.
Speaker 2:What I'm kind of wondering is like you got that fire last so long how did the fire last so long?
Speaker 3:yeah oh, he had infinite fuel for it yeah, no, like it was wasn't he using liquid oxygen?
Speaker 2:I thought he was using the cross. He was using no, no, no that was just to start it.
Speaker 3:Oh, just to get it. That was the tender.
Speaker 1:Just to get the fire started and it had a constant flow of hydrogen and oxygen so it kept burning. But what I was going to say is, if he did turn that fire off, I feel like because it's not like a closed greenhouse, you know, like those tarps are not completely sealed all the way that eventually all of the water would be reclaimed, because I kind of figure it's kind of like the uh international space station where it, uh, it recycles everybody's water sweat yeah, tears piss, it recycles, all of that.
Speaker 1:So I think eventually it would all get put back into, like the water tank or whatever the fuck they got, and and that's of that.
Speaker 3:So I think eventually it would all get put back into, like the water tank or whatever the fuck they got and, and that's what I think I think once you, once you've generated that much water and you're able to keep generating it, once he upped that quantity, how much water was in the ground? How much water evaporates, it hits the tarp, it comes back down. Now you're starting a new recycle, you have a new quantity. Uh, because it is an entirely closed system. There's a point Nerdy says on average, it may take between six to 12 months to fully launch your oxygen plant, which that would make a lot of sense. But he was there for over a year. When did that explosion take place? I think it was just over a year, wasn't it 400 days? So he still had something like 400 days to go before the rescue came. So he was there for over a year. Theoretically speaking, that should have already been a closed ecosystem, because you know that the whole lab is completely sealed. We can agree on that right.
Speaker 2:Everybody knows it has to be completely sealed it was designed to be, you know, their shelter which I'm I.
Speaker 3:I can only speculate that the explosion was caused from an excess of oxygen. I wonder.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, you mean when he initially lit the fire.
Speaker 3:No, not when he blew himself up, but when he blew up the airlock.
Speaker 2:But that was from a hole in the.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but pressure Too much. Pressure on the inside.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because it went to pressurize that section, it happened on Sol 134.
Speaker 3:Sol 134. Oh, so really early. So not even a year, not even a half a year.
Speaker 1:So, and then he had.
Speaker 3:What's a sol compared to? He had enough to last till like 500. But he did still last a year.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but he was supposed to last to 900.
Speaker 3:It was like 800 something.
Speaker 1:Yeah, if it kept going right, but it fucking.
Speaker 3:You know, you can't just keep growing infinite potatoes.
Speaker 2:Eventually it's mars's, yeah, it's mars's day, but that's not at all equivalent to earth's day similar because 900 would insinuate that he was there for what? Almost three years, but he said he was only there for a year and a half or a year and a half, day and a half. Yeah, he got sick quick. He was only there. It was really just a quick turnaround trip. Yeah, they hit the e-brake switched it around drifted, picked him back up.
Speaker 1:No, but yeah, I'd be fucking devastated if that happened to me. I think I would have given up if.
Speaker 2:I made it that far and then no.
Speaker 1:And then he had to fucking sleep in there, with the only thing keeping Mars out is a tarp and duct tape and scraps. And it's like storming constantly, like every night, dude I would, I'd have panic attacks like when he was.
Speaker 3:When he was counting the potatoes, I I saw that that's what I saw he was, he was counting to keep his mind off of what was happening and the storm was just so loud that he was like losing his mind for a little bit.
Speaker 1:I, I could see that and all he had was for like entertainment was shitty nerd shows and really bad music I would have, I would have walked out with my helmet off yeah, the disco music I might have offed myself.
Speaker 2:I'm not gonna lie, just all I had.
Speaker 3:Just for accuracy, the mars day is extremely similar to earth 24 hours 39 minutes 35.244 seconds so extremely close to earth.
Speaker 2:So why did he say he was only there for a year and a half if he was there for like 800 souls?
Speaker 3:I don't know he wasn't there for 800. They got him off early, remember.
Speaker 2:How long was he there? That was approximately over a year and a half.
Speaker 3:Didn't they get him off at 400 plus Hold on.
Speaker 2:Was it 412? I think.
Speaker 3:That's.
Speaker 2:That's accurate, then I guess it was soul 500 and something see that wouldn't be accurate though, that would 365 plus 180, but 365 is one year yeah, 180 is half a year technically yeah, right, 365 plus 180. Oh, yeah, I guess. So I guess that is yeah, 500 plus yeah. Okay, I guess it does that up.
Speaker 3:Yeah, soul 538 ish so just around a year and a half yeah, fuck no I wouldn't be able to also his beard. His beard is atrocious oh my god, okay, okay.
Speaker 2:I mean, I don't think he's trimming it up or anything like that I.
Speaker 3:I realize the logic in your statement there, but I absolutely 100 love the fact that he required them to call him captain blonde beard because he is the first official space pirate I also like that.
Speaker 2:Okay, space pirate fucking awesome. Um, I love his logic about maritime law. That's so funny. Also, I think one of my favorite parts of the movie was when he would tell nasa's botanist to go fuck off oh god, I loved it, they would make a suggestion about his plants okay, I got a question and you'll get a point.
Speaker 1:Actually, three points, you'll get three points. Ooh, big money.
Speaker 2:How many?
Speaker 1:times, was the F word said in this movie. And when, oh my God. And when Is this closest Price is Right rules.
Speaker 3:He said it when.
Speaker 2:I know when. Verbally, I know when.
Speaker 3:Well, wait, does that not count the times that he was like screaming it in the rover, but you couldn't hear him, couldn't hear it, so that didn't count, didn't count.
Speaker 2:I don't even know.
Speaker 3:I don't know. Hold on, keep talking, eric. Was it him that you're looking for? Are you looking it up?
Speaker 2:No, Just anybody who said it, or specifically him, you got five seconds, five four.
Speaker 3:I'm going to say it twice. And while he was, communicating on the computer.
Speaker 1:Two one, 27 times 27. Eric was closest.
Speaker 2:He gets three points, let's go.
Speaker 1:How many? A singular time? All the rest of the times you couldn't hear it or it was censored in writing.
Speaker 3:Oh is that right? I was going to say one the movie is PG-13.
Speaker 1:That's a PG-13.
Speaker 2:He yoinked out the piece of metal, dropped it in the cup laid back said fuck, that's it. Oh, I remember.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I remember that, because I remember thinking like that was Actually how many did you say there was two?
Speaker 2:right, he said one, I said two. Well, there's one, but he said two, he was closest, there was two.
Speaker 3:No, there were two. Only two fucks emerged from the cinematic Watney.
Speaker 1:I was paying attention, I don't know.
Speaker 3:Oh, he says fuck you Mars. Oh yeah, that's right. Effort hauling bacteria friendly Martian soil Into his habitat. You get plus one more point for being exactly correct Wow look at that.
Speaker 1:Alex, you get plus one for correcting Yay.
Speaker 2:When he got that Piece of metal out of him, and then he just sat back and said fuck. That was the moment where he was finally able to take a breath.
Speaker 3:That was so real.
Speaker 2:When he finally was able to assess the situation, he wasn't in critical mode and he was like, oh my God this is the situation.
Speaker 3:And now might be a good point to tell our listeners in the podcast. If you want to participate in the live podcast, join us on TikTok, just search. Will you Survive the Podcast we usually record on Friday nights? Hang out with us, you can comment and we read your comments like we have been for Nerdy Vet. You're number one fan official too, and Stabby Krabby.
Speaker 1:Josh, I feel like you just need to make two accounts to have them in both of our lives, because he's jumping between. He's like he's saying the exact same thing and he's fucking legit, dude, he's legit yeah, um, he said it was twice I thought I was counting, but you know yeah eric got it exactly right. Um so what did?
Speaker 3:we got to the food, the water reclamation tools, devices that they use, even the waste reclamation that he used, all of that stuff, which I've got to say as as may I say, legalistic as it seems. I thought it was pretty cool after the fact that they're up on Mars and they're collecting their, their solid waste and not leaving it there, like they're up on Mars and they're collecting their, their solid waste and not leaving it there like they're packaging it up like they.
Speaker 3:Clearly they left it there, but they're packaging it up with the intent that they're gonna go back. I know that was pretty cool. What I will say, one of the things we're about to get to, I think, is the launching from Mars.
Speaker 1:Oh right.
Speaker 3:I mean everything in between. I don't. This isn't really survival related, um, because everything that he did was very astronaut based, everything up to this point although, yeah, we're not going to be in that exact situation. There's some uh, several parallels we can draw. With this, you're in a situation where you have no water. How can you create water? With this, you're in a situation where you have no water. How can you create water?
Speaker 3:Most of us know that you can use something like plastic, a tarp, a tent, something to collect water. I wouldn't go there unless it was dire straits, but you definitely can collect water, collect dew, rain, anything that you can do in that sort. We've always talked on the lives about collecting water from streams, filtering it, purifying it, drinking that. But if you were in a really bad situation, you can use plastic over plants. Creates humidity. All you got to do is put a plastic bag over a plant and it will create condensation. Now, it's not definitely not ideal. It's not going to be enough that you're going to be able to drink instantly, but if you start planning on minute one for the future, you can probably get out with enough water to survive until the end.
Speaker 1:Yes, and if you were ever in science class, you would know that the reason that there is water when you cover a plant is because of the stomatas. Nice, yeah, there are little holes. You go, yeah, which, if, if you can find a cactus.
Speaker 3:You know, you know not to drink the water directly from the cactus right cactus juice it'll quench you don't drink the water directly because it could give you. It could give you dysentery oh, no, yeah. So then you wind up in a bad situation, however, the worst enemy of the organ, however if you find, all right, you're gonna die if you're in the organ trail, but if you go to um, if you find the, the cactus pear, you can eat that raw I've heard about that and that actually has water in it too, so that's something that you can just go right away, and a lot of food products.
Speaker 3:if you can get a lot of fruits or vegetables plants off of the ground, you forage. Those have a lot of water in them, so you just make sure that you're consuming.
Speaker 1:You can also take moss off the ground or whatever and just squeeze it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I get your point there. I'm very hesitant to do that because moss is a great filter, so it collects a lot of toxins and when you squeeze out the water, you I mean squeeze it directly into your mouth.
Speaker 1:But you know, yeah, yeah, I have a cup or bucket or whatever and score and then purify it, and purify it. There you go, yeah, um don't drink brown water, guys don't drink, don't eat yellow snow do not drink brown water, do not eat yellow snow. Do not drink brown water, do not eat yellow, don't eat red dirt.
Speaker 3:Okay, so whereabouts are we?
Speaker 1:I think we can skip ahead to him. You know he travels because he's trying to get to one of the landing sites from, I think, one of the first Ares missions, and his plan is to take everything off of it except for, like, the propulsion, and this is including the nose cone which is kind of important for getting through the atmosphere and replacing it with a tarp. Yeah, um, I think at this moment, if I make it this far, I'm just major fuck it. Mood yo nasa, you want me to do that whatever, like either I down, die down here, die in space, or I make it whatever I understand.
Speaker 3:I understand the point there. What I don't get is mars's atmosphere and its gravitational force. Its gravitational force is only 38 of that of earth's. Its atmosphere is only one percent of that of earth's, and yet the, the rocket, still didn't have enough propulsion to get it out of the atmosphere.
Speaker 1:After taking all of that stuff off of it.
Speaker 3:The other thing is what I'm reading off of the interwebs here is, although the launch involved stripping the ascent vehicle to reduce weight, the physics of doing so might not work as it was shown, and I did like that. They showed that it in fact slowed him down and he wasn't able to meet them at the right point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was just catching all of the air Not air, but the air that was.
Speaker 3:No, I get it. That was what slowed him down, I think.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and he got to fly like.
Speaker 3:Iron man, I mean, come on, I did like his attitude about it. I did like his attitude about it.
Speaker 1:I would be exactly the same. I'd be like fuck it Last thing I get to do fly as Iron man. I'm down, I'm with it. I love that point.
Speaker 3:What have you got to lose? Yeah, really, you're going to float into outer space.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'd rather. I'm not gonna lie, I would aim myself in earth's general direction if I missed, and just like just full power, and then my body would just be traveling towards earth come come pick me up guys no, just like come pick me up on your way. Eventually I'll make it back. It's just here's where I think it falls apart.
Speaker 2:He broke his ribs from the G-forces of being launched into space and his movement. He was moving around a lot for a guy with broken ribs.
Speaker 3:I understand that I get it.
Speaker 2:He's got adrenaline and he's literally floating in space. But the whole Iron man thing I'm like that's got to be so painful.
Speaker 3:I agree it would be absolutely painful. But I'll tell you what I absolutely painful, but I'll tell you what I've seen hockey players continue playing hockey with broken ribs.
Speaker 1:It's possible. Breaking a rib, it knocks the fucking wind out of you there's. There's nothing like pass out for like a good five, ten minutes. You can't, you can't breathe correctly after that.
Speaker 3:but I did love the uh when he told the commander I don't want you to do this. Uh, let me fly out like iron man number one. I get to fly like Iron man Number two is I want to be the only one that people talk about. I loved it. I loved his attitude about it, how he thought of the whole situation. He was consistent all the way through. He said everywhere on Mars. I'm the first person, I'm the first person. I did this, I did this, I did.
Speaker 2:He was consistent the entire way through the movie.
Speaker 3:Right Didn't even say that he said, oh yeah, that was his other thing. Right Reading the examples, you don't actually colonize anywhere until you plant crops, so I'm the first one to colonize Mars. I think what a consistent character all the way through. I don't think we've ever been so lucky in cinema to follow a character who's been so consistent.
Speaker 1:Nobody died in a space movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, nobody died. It's like a no-no in space.
Speaker 1:Somebody has to die. Somebody died. That is wild. You're right. When I first watched this, I thought that Sebastian Stan, his character, I thought he was going to explode or something.
Speaker 3:But no nobody died. I thought he was going to explode or something, but no, nobody died. I thought he was going to fly off of the. When he was doing that spacewalk shit, I thought he was going to fly off the.
Speaker 2:That's what I thought. I thought he was going to go flying off into space. It's kind of hard to do that, considering you're going the exact same speed as the thing.
Speaker 3:So unless you pushed off of it, you're not going to, but, yeah, no, he did, though he did. He did push off, remember, because he had to jump from one section to another, so it was like he had to get away from the bomb.
Speaker 2:Oh my God.
Speaker 3:There were a couple of points.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, I wouldn't want a spacewalk, but I know I forgot who I was. Was I talking with you, eric, with like, what would you rather like? Ocean or space?
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, well, yeah. Well, you said which one would you rather be stranded in, like stranded in Ocean.
Speaker 1:I think I'd much rather be stranded in space, but I would much rather space. Yeah, I would rather the ocean.
Speaker 2:Because if the ultimate ending is that you're certain you're going to die in both situations, the ocean is slow and painful. No, yeah, no.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:You're going to keep floating there until you get tired, and then you'll drown.
Speaker 2:Yeah, let's say you don't just drown yourself right away. Yeah, let's say that you try to survive for a little bit. You're probably going to get hypothermia before anything else. You're going to be extremely dehydrated. Tj brought up that you're going to be sunburned to all shit.
Speaker 3:Wait. So you mean you're just like floating in the water sunburned, wrinkled because of all the salt water so you're floating in the water or you're floating in outer space?
Speaker 1:yes, so say, like you fell off your ship in both situations I get it, I get it I would prefer outer space, because the way I think of it is you take your helmet off.
Speaker 3:You maybe last 10 seconds before you're dead and yeah, but do you realize how violent that would be If you take your helmet off in?
Speaker 1:space you last one second, because you're just going to die.
Speaker 2:I don't think you really survive long enough to really feel anything.
Speaker 1:I think it's way faster than dying by the ocean.
Speaker 2:I would rather suffocate than drown or get eaten by a shark or sunburn to death, because another thing is what you could do is you could just wait till your suit runs out of oxygen, and then you just kind of go to sleep, poke a hole in it be iron man for like 10 seconds I mean, that's kind of what they say.
Speaker 2:The same thing is about drowning yeah, but in that case you're cold and you're like I do think there's a fear, there's a fear. There's a fear of space, in a sense of like you're alone in a void, but it's kind of that way with the ocean, except there's things that can eat you in the void, that are very scary. I don't know the ocean. I'm thinking about all the creatures underneath and then on top of that, let's say, a storm happens.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we talked about that.
Speaker 2:Well, what you're gonna?
Speaker 1:you're just gonna die to these hundred foot waves that are gonna crash down on you and you're freezing cold and you're dehydrated and your sun burned all hell versus space, where you're just gonna die from, either imploding instantly, or you're gonna lose oxygen, which means you're gonna get hypoxia, which means you're just gonna be happy and giggly until you pass away the the difference is like if I'm alone in the ocean, I'm thinking like, oh well one, I'm dead, but also like, wow, I'm dying.
Speaker 2:In the middle of the ocean, it's still Earth, there's still some semblance of being home, or like my body may be found someday In space. Your body will never be found, it's never going to decompose and there's no hope.
Speaker 3:your body will never be found.
Speaker 2:Um, and there's no hope If nobody knows you're out there there. There's no hope, there's no hope.
Speaker 3:Shoot, everybody on the planet could know you're out there and there's still no hope.
Speaker 2:There's no hope that some random fisherman is going to come by and find you. There's nothing.
Speaker 1:You are done Fisherman.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's nothing.
Speaker 1:Oh God, hey bud, on the way to uh, y'all are gonna get nine uh you need a lift.
Speaker 3:When he says alien, he means mexican oh, dude, you're not allowed to say that.
Speaker 1:Space only we are, I think, that earth that was great we're space mexicans to the rest of the fucking universe.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right, you're right. We're the space mexicans floating in space and some alien comes up like what are you doing out here? You need a ride we're hopping your border yeah, what are you doing?
Speaker 2:now we don't like you, milky way people in our galaxy wow, dude, andromedans, be so mean, they're so racist, they're so galaxies well, guys, I think it's been like an hour-ish Pretty close.
Speaker 1:Eric is getting tired. I've been tired, so I'm going to calculate the points, completely unbiased. It was based on, you know who was more active, blah, blah, blah. That's promising for me. Eric, you did lose a point for being a little sleepy bitch.
Speaker 3:But yeah, alex, how about some socials?
Speaker 1:would you like to give everybody our socials while I calculate, I would never interrupt you, like that judge I would love to give them the socials.

Speaker 1:Perfect If you would like to see any gaming content from yours truly and Eric. We have a gaming channel on TikTok. It is W-I-S Gaming. He's been posting there a lot more than usual. Make sure to go there, like follow and you know, sometimes we'll stream. It's been a little lax lately. We haven't really streamed nothing but. I recently did get a capture card and me and Eric are going to be playing Last of Us Part 2, as he has not played it, so he's going to be rapping to the play.
Speaker 3:If I ever lose you.
Speaker 2:That's the craziest scene of all time. If anyone's ever played the Last of Us 2, holy shit. There's a scene so early on where Joel brings a guitar to Ellie and he decides to sing for her and TJ brings it to the point that it's Troy Baker and he doesn't have a naturally very low voice, so he's trying to do a low voice but it's like if I it's like if I would do a low voice.
Speaker 1:Tj's doing it better guys. No spoilers, no nothing. We only got like Fucking 30 minutes in.
Speaker 2:That game has been out for so long. Yeah, but don't spoil you, eric.
Speaker 1:What are we spoiling? I don't want you to be spoiled.
Speaker 2:Oh, I'll be fine, I won't remember by the time we get back to that part or whatever. Okay, guys, we have All of the points tallied.
Speaker 1:I'll be fine. I won't remember by the time we get back to that part or whatever. Fine, okay, guys, we have all of the points tallied. It is a surprising little thing that we got here. First off, I want to ask who do you think won Eric?
Speaker 2:Me Well. Based off of that, I feel like I won.
Speaker 1:Who do you think won Alex? It's surprising.
Speaker 3:Me.
Speaker 2:You know that'd be valid. So alex did bring more facts, but I feel like, I feel like the fact that you said surprising.
Speaker 3:It's true, it's true, it's true. I get that it's surprisingly low.
Speaker 1:How many points y'all got like?
Speaker 2:it's not like 10, oh my god you know, because I was gonna say like I feel like you definitely 100 got this out. No, it's.
Speaker 1:It's surprising the fact that y'all aren't in like double digits or nothing, it's just like yeah, so what you're saying is you're being stingy with these points. Yeah so, alex, I'm gonna say you first uh, you got minus one for some reason. Minus one for another reason. Plus one, for I think, correcting me Plus one, because you said something that was correct. So that leaves you with a total of zero. Eric, you got minus one. You got minus one. You got minus one. You got minus one. You got minus one.
Speaker 2:You got.
Speaker 1:Plus one. You got plus one and then plus three. So Eric has a total of two. Alex has a total of zero. That means Eric is the winner For this episode Eric, would you like to give a? Winner's speech I would.
Speaker 2:You know, sometimes here this is. Sometimes that's quality over quantity.
Speaker 1:I circled the circle, the zero, and then I just drew a little. That's hilarious, that's hilarious, judge E-A little. And then there's the two.
Speaker 2:That's hilarious. That's hilarious Judge E-A-E Sports.
Speaker 1:It's in the game. Oh, look at all my notes from one of the last episodes Dawn of the Dead. Dude, dawn of the Dead, wow, crazy. All right, eric, what are you speaking?
Speaker 2:to. Yeah, I, nerdy, wants to take away 5k from eric for dissing old movies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, well, fuck off, nerdy, you have no power.
Speaker 2:According to our constitution, I'm the winner here and uh, I would like to say, wait a minute, the top, the top, uh, commenter.
Speaker 3:Wasn't that our? Our thing, josh is built in. But then don't we have the top commenter.
Speaker 2:We would have to refer to the Constitution. But in the meantime, until someone confirms with that, I would like to say that also, he doesn't have the authority to take $5,000. Josh, are you still?
Speaker 3:here? Sure as hell doesn't have the authority to take 5,000. Josh, are you still here? Sure as hell doesn't have that authority. Josh is in my life.
