AGodzillafan-made video reveals the “canonical explanation” for how the famedkaijustands above the ocean in so many different iterations. Throughout over 70 years of movies, Godzilla has always been shown to stand in the ocean, oftentimes doing so at depths that, despite his size, he shouldn’t be able to stand at. This has been seen in everything from Legendary’s Monsterverse movies, to theend ofGodzilla Minus One, standing in ocean depths that are much too deep for his size. This has become somewhat a staple of his character due to its frequency.
Now,Pasko Boyohhas created a video offering a “canonical explanation” as to why theGodzillamovies show the titular monster standing above the ocean.The video shows thekaijuwalking across the ocean floor in silver high heels,which give him a boost reminiscent of the many times he’s risen out of the water. The video’s caption also crowns him “King of High heels,” giving him a new title aside from King of the Monsters. Check out Pasko Boyoh’s full video below:
What Godzilla’s Fan-Made Video Says About How He Stands Above The Ocean
A Comedic Interpretation Of An Interesting Question
The famouskaijuwearing high heels is a comedic interpretation of how he’s always able to stand above the water, but also begs the question as to how he’s really able to do it. WhileGodzilla’s height has fluctuatedacross history, his shortest was at 164 feet inGodzilla Minus One, whilehis tallest was 394 feet inGodzilla: King of the Monsters. However, there have been multiple instances across his movies where the depth of the water he wades into or stands in doesn’t match up.
Godzilla Minus One’s Title Explained: Why The Godzilla Movie Is Called That
The newest movie including the iconic Kaiju - Godzilla Minus One - has an interesting title that holds a deeper meaning within the film’s story.
The easiest explanation would be that he treads water in deep areas, his size giving off the illusion that he’s actually standing up. However, instances like whenhe clearly stands in water that’s hundreds of feet deep duringGodzilla: King of the Monsters,meaning this can’t always be the case. Perhaps he gets lucky every time he wants to stand up in the water, managing to stand on rocky structures under the ocean that can’t be seen. Whatever the case, it’s part of his character’s history, possibly something theupcomingGodzilla x Kongsequelwill continue to address as well.
Our Take On Godzilla’s Ability To Stand In Water That’s Too Deep
It’s Just Another Staple Of His Character
Pasko Boyoh’s interpretation of how thekaijustands so high above the water is hilarious, and also shows just how much the joke is now associated with the character. While futureGodzillafilms may not feature it as much as anticipated, with only two major instances in the last several years, it’s still something to be on the lookout for when a new entry arrives. For now, however, the video offers a comedic alternative viewpoint of how he’s able to stand so high up in water that’s clearly too deep.
