Comcast Required Weekly EAS Test - 1999 | 100% REAL

[@thatpersonwhocommentsevery9181]

I saw a lot of these in the 1990s and 2000s. I usually saw them in the 2000s while watching Nickelodeon.

I think the first time I saw an actual EAS was in 2008 or 2009. I was freaked out lol.

[@montcopaWx]

First time I saw one was an amber alert. Bright Red background, black letters. I was 3 and it scared me to death. This is in about 2011.

[@marigoldmusic33]

First time was in around 2013, i was at nanas and in the kitchen, i looked up at the tv and theres the black screen with a tornado warning.

[@notgreywaves2380]

First time I saw one was probably 2012. It was an amber alert. The child was murdered by its abducter. It was a blue screen with white letters. I remember very little if it.

[@CringePoop]

mine was in 2013 when i saw it while watching wallace and gromit on cartoon network. it was a monthly test and it was a blue box with a red border.

[@MrVirtualMachine0]

First time for me was 2010. That was also the first time I was in a tornado warning.

[@beckybecky125]

From green to red to black to (some cable boxes) gray.

[@MudkipVideoMaker]

dont forget blue with red outline in black background

[@novanokona]

@@MudkipVideoMaker Mine before I got rid of cable was bright blue with no outline

[@person6440]

This video is the only time I've heard EAS tones and didn't feel some sort of dread.

[@demon9554]

VCR's cant display an eas without a glitch, apparently

[@thatpersonwhocommentsevery9181]

No, he made a VHS TV recording, not an actual VHS tape that is like in stores or something.

[@EASguy114]

@@thatpersonwhocommentsevery9181 Plus, not all VHS tapes/recorders can handle the sudden changes on the screen.

[@TugAndThugComputing]

The same header kind of affect it along side the scan rate

[@marigoldmusic33]

I think its the sudden changes that mess up the tape

[@Orc-icide]

RUclips IS NOT VCR TECHNOLOGY. The error is made in converting media types

[@davidlagerbom3404]

if theres one thing i love, its shaky eas screens with not-stable tone notes

[@rusva3755]

This was broadcasted June of 1999.

[@happyaccidents523]

Incorrect. The alert is from March 17, 1999.

[@rusva3755]

@ oh ok

[@BoredVHSlover]

can you make a playlist of EAS alerts like this one, just the comcast alerts or tests are quite fun

[@landonthegamer364]

Ive seen one thats funny it had a lady and a bird and she was like
How about this?
Bird turns into eas

[@landonthegamer364]

Edward wished he could be the eas “drops coin in wishing fountain”

[@goldenarc3484]

First time I saw EAS was in 2008 and I was scared to go close to the living room

[@loser2466]

That lady is Betty Furness the Westinghouse saleswoman before she became the spokeswoman for the company in the late-1940s

[@abandoned24]

Also, this is what it looked like during SpongeBob.

[@C.A._Old]

VHS era was golden.

[@spongebobation]

When you click the link on the desc, It shows a terminated user

[@jesusrdz8765]

It glitches so much

[@PharyngealMedia]

Those tones sound a little bit off

[@THFVEcopyrightchecking]

@Henrystrikesback I think it was just the terrible quality of the EAS alert since it is old

[@THFVEcopyrightchecking]

@Henrystrikesback Probably since the date is a little new

[@THFVEcopyrightchecking]

@Henrystrikesback maybe

[@THFVEcopyrightchecking]

@Henrystrikesback what im trying to say is maybe the vhs was so old being uploaded in 2010s it got glitchy bc its old

[@loser2466]
