Not even Youtube, they aired that **** on TV in some countries for an energy drink iirc.

Imagine all the people that got 'pranked' by that on television.

For those out of the loop.

 

[Shroob]

They did? When was that?

Either way that's seriously ****ed up. Whoever was responsible for producing that commercial should be sued IMO.

IIrc either Australia or New Zealand.

My dad got me really good when I was younger with a video about supposed secret message that you can hear when you reverse Jingle Bells. He got me REALLY close to the monitor. Halfway through the backwards version an inverted epilepsy-including screaming man popped up and I just lost it. And I was in far less control of my Aspergers at that time so my reaction was way greater than it should’ve been. At least my dad still feels bad about it today though that hasn’t stopped him from scaring me in other ways...

No, this is just confirmation of multiple Sheldon's in the Big Bang Timeline. Here's how many Sheldons we have.

Sheldon
Young Sheldon
Toon Sheldon
and Fierce Deity Sheldon

Sheldon is going to be the next DLC character, as an echo of Link.

not the "brave" rep you were expecting, huh?

To make up for me being an idiot, let me shoo out the cursed content with something a little bit more blessed, innocent, and all-around feelgood.

I'm so jealous of everyone who doesn't get terrifying flashbacks from seeing that car on the hill.

**** that's one thing from the early-Youtube era (2005-2009) that i'll never miss. I hate all the prank videos that had them at the end of the video.

Middle School me got PTSD from that ****.

I always hated screamers, especially when I was in my early adolescent years. You aren't alone.

For those out of the loop.

Oh, no, there's no way in hell I'm watching that video.

 

[Ura]

I'm so jealous of everyone who doesn't get terrifying flashbacks from seeing that car on the hill.

Funny how there's so many users that weren't around during that time huh?

We're like the cranky old men telling the young'ins how good they have it now.

So I’m nuzlocking renegade platinum. And working towards gym one, when Psyduck kills two of my Pokémon, feels bad.

I highly doubt that'd even be allowed nowadays...

Remember when they had to take down that YouTube ad for that Nun horror movie because it contained a fairly similar jump scare?

 

[Opossum]

They did? When was that?

Either way that's seriously ****ed up. Whoever was responsible for producing that commercial should be sued IMO.

IIRC they actually did get sued because some elderly viewers had legitimate heart attacks.

Ah, found the disconnect.

You had friends in middle school, and around 2007.

I did not.

For those out of the loop.

Ahhhh.

Gotcha.

Alright. Well played.

Literally everything about this typo is concerning.

Course now you can get jumpscared by 5-second YouTube ads promoting horror movies. **** those marketing execs responsible for that.

Good on them. Serves them right for pulling that ****. Bad enough that 11 year old me had to see that on YT.

Damn, Golden left? He was one of the first dudes I knew around here. He had his moments of getting heated, but I liked him enough. Hope he'll at be least alright though.

First time I saw the maze, I legit fell out of my chair, ripping my headphones out of their socket and mashed the off switch on my old Pentium 4.

It was awful.

Those ones aren't nearly as bad IMO. I always pause the ad if I see something like that happening.

There are rules you gotta know

You tell us how to jump and then infract is for the hops

So we're talking about pre-10's internet stuff? Here, let me pitch in with a favorite of mine.

It's a scientific possibility that Weegee is a criminally underused meme compared to him being seen every five seconds nearly a decade ago.

 

[TheMightyP]

Imagine if had a full team of 6 instead of a team of 3. So in other words, you would have to manage 6 different Pokemon to use them to their full potential.

Sounds like fun to me.

Hey everyone.

Brelooming Disaster dmed me on Discord a little while ago and asked me to tell you guys that he's going into intensive care tomorrow.

It's... well, it's not looking so good.

There's a pretty good chance he'll die soon.

I'm not sure if he's open to dms right now or not.

He said that he doesn't want anyone to stress out over the situation, so I hope that we can all respect his wishes on that.

Pretty sure the best thing any of us can do is hope and pray for the best outcome possible.

 

[Shroob]

Rest in Peace, YTMND, you were the birth of the memes before memes became popular.

Adolescent-me was just trying to watch a video about the still image of the shark in Ocarina of Time's Lakeside Laboratory one evening. Video title and description told me there was some Easter Egg involving it.

Cue Link going to the bottom of the tank and firing the Hookshot at it.

Cue ghostly face black-eyed woman popping out of nowhere and unleashing the most bloodcurdling, horrifying loud scream I had ever heard in my life.

 

[Iridium]

They did? When was that?

Either way that's seriously ****ed up. Whoever was responsible for producing that commercial should be sued IMO.

It's kind of ironic. Wanting people to buy an energy drink for energy (and perhaps raise adrenaline), but they had to scare people to do raise it first. Kind of genius, but very bold.

Still, I've seen more cursed stuff than that in which I didn't want to.

*PTSD intensifies*

So a little context for y'all...

> On one faithful Summer day in 2006, 11-year old Ura is encouraged by his brother (who's a massive douche at this point of time) to play this game he found on the web.

> Ura's brother leaves the room and clueless pre-teen Ura goes ahead and plays.

> Ura gets through the first 2 levels easily and wonders why he left the room.

> Ura's brother walks in right before the end of the 3rd level and tells me something really big is about to happen before leaving again.

> Ura clicks and is scared ****less by what he see's, having massive heart palpation's while douche brother is laughing.

Even worse is that only a couple of weeks prior he did the Scary Car Ride on me and took so much pleasure in that as well.

Glad he mellowed out and isn't a ****head anymore.

 

[Wademan94]

I can never react fast enough for it, it’s like one second of a cat mewing and suddenly scary cat and I’m given a heart attack. I don’t remember what movie that was for..

 

[Knight Dude]

Ah damn, that... sucks.

No one should have to go through what he's going through, especially at that age.

Here's to hoping he makes out healthy.

 

[BlondeLombax]

This video came out in 2012, though.
I am unsure if the meme came out before 2010, though.

It's a repost of the original. If you do a quick search, you'll be able to find remixes using the video made over 9 years ago.

Still doesn't change Weegee's tragic obscurity, though.
