Goat!!

For reference, Rocky's roughly the size of a labrador retriever. Add more than 200 kg of rock to that you have a refrigerator sized Eridian.

edit: i also wanna note that the specific phrasing ("on the order of 400 kgs" = roughly 400kgs) made it seem like it was, while definitely the upper size of the species, still not necessarily THE largest yknow? Like the Eridian equivalent of being 6'3". Yeah bigger exist but that tends to be outliers... Give me 450 kg Adrian just bc.

Simon's last wish as his consciousness faded was for Eden and the consequences of the Quiet Rapture were to have never occured. He's not sure where he'd ended up but it had given him enough time to process some of what the hell just happened.

Meanwhile, aboard the Hail Mary, Grace and Rocky were parsing out Grace's food problem after a stroke of good luck while digging through storage, when a mysterious Blip appeared on the ship's radar.

God I literally cannot emphasize how much I love Iron Lung. Even outside of being a Markiplier fan, my favorite things ever are passion projects. You can tell that there is an insurmountable amount of love and care that went into this film. You can tell that literally every part of it was made with the utmost passion that I feel like only other creatives seem to recognize. I can see the hours poured into even the smallest details and I adore it. I honestly think Iron Lung has changed my standards for films. It had a very clear goal from the beginning, make an enjoyable horror movie that was loyal to the source material, and it managed to hit it out of the ballpark. Iron Lung has definitely wormed its way into my top 5 movies, and I feel that would have been the case if I had never heard of Markiplier before. If you had a role in this movie you should be proud!! You did excellent work, I can tell so much effort went into this movie despite the small budget (less than 5 mil for some absolutely insane CG is astounding! The render farm more than paid off mark!!! I want to give all of the artists for this movie a big ol forehead smooch cause HOLY SHIT I can’t stop thinking about the hallucination/vision scene!!!)
