God that music seriously gives me extreme feels. I love coming back to this video and reminiscing. Surprisingly, the video aged quite well. It's still fairly entertaining.
Nearly 8 years since this was put on RUclips, and it's STILL amazing to watch. Just brilliant, including that rockin' soundtrack by Christopher Donovan. If there's a RUclips Hall of Fame for creativity, this vid's gotta be a charter member.
Remember watching this when it first came out and RUclips was just a simple video sharing platform for phenomenal creators to upload masterpieces such as this. So glad it's still up 15 years later.
A true classic! Can't believe i remember watching this at my friends house when it was pretty new. Such a long time ago, over half as old as i even am! 😳
This brings me back to happier days. This video alone. I just want you guys to know you created a memory, not just a video. Sounds so cheesy after writing it but it’s true 😂
This video speaks to me deeply. Sometimes I have dreams where I'm floating a bit, not too high and I can advance by will. Not walking, not jumping, just like I was wearing skates and my will propels me forward. It's such a wonderful feeling.
I was first shown this masterpiece by my school friends when it came out 16 years ago, when I was just 12 years old. I love coming back to rewatch from time to time! Good times
I was 9 when this video appeared on top clips of RUclips. What a time to witness the early days of the platform. It saddens me that current generations have grown up in the age of RUclips drama, controversy, and over marketing. Find these gems and treasure them. They’re a dying art.
Every now and then I come back to this video. It reminds me of such an exciting summer in 2006, when social media was in if's infancy and RUclips was just a cool new website. The music is so nostalgic, I must have watched this video 50 times. Thanks again, hope you guys are well and it must be crazy to watch this back 17 yrs later. EDIT: just looked you up and wow you're doing some amazing things! So cool this was the start of something.
I remember watching this video when I was younger and then going to audition to be in a commercial and I walked into the room and I see these 2 there. My little brain was blown. Later that day I got a call saying they wanted me to be in the commercial and I was the happiest child in my town XD
This has been in my Favorites list for as long as I have had a favorites list. And it's going to stay there. Right near Star Wars Kid, an early Mentos and Coke chain reaction video, Battle at Krueger, and Ted Stevens calling the internet a series of tubes.
It is Aug 2020 and I am still coming back to watch my favourite videos just like this and am reflecting on not only how they changed my world but also reflecting on what I would argue were the best years of YT. Thanks Paul and Tony!
@@paulb.cummings866 I don't doubt we could still have great YT, however YT is trying its' hardest to shove random crap in our faces these days sadly. Please do feel free to make your awesome content more regularly though :)
Was heartbroken for a minute when I couldn’t remember what to search to find this! A correct guess of “stop motion 2006” saved me. Used to watch this every week when this came out and I was an aspiring youtuber
I remember i watched this video clip six years ago, its music still resounds in my head but i could not find the clip itself now, i finally managed to fetch it ! i always like to hear this music when i want to cheer myself up , love you guys !
This is the earliest vid I remember watching on youtube, too. I found it back when RUclips had a feed of highlighted videos going from top to bottom, and this was way up there.
I had to go on Reddit and ask them lol I remembered watching this years ago when it wasn't even that old but I couldn't remember it, all I remembered is it was a stop motion fight with two guys lol 😆
one thing i really do enjoy about YT is finding these little gems in the rough. also, this has something of a pretty strong 90's era feel to it- the one guy is reminiscent of Anthony from RHCP w/the ponytail and it would easily show up on Beavis&Butthead. i would love to do vids like this. in fact, i just might include some stop-motion in whatever musicvid we do next to give myself a platform gimmick; this vid here is certainly not gimmicky tho, this is unadulterated creativity! thx 4 the inspo&keep it up!
I have watched this video so many times over the past five years. This was literally the first youtube video I ever watched, and it still stands as one of the best videos I have seen on here. You guys are awesome. Just wanted to thank you for your greatness.
10 years later, this video still holds up. Great stuff
9 years and 10 months
now 10 years
I watched this when it first came out, man I feel old
piper.spirit
Thanks!!
I'm so glad this video still exists.
Me too!
@@paulb.cummings866 I remember watching them so many times with my friends. Great memories.
Hell yeah!
15yrs and still as fresh as ever.
This was RUclips's most popular video at one point in time.
idk about that... was definitely trending at some point tho.
Before people kept track of what was trending lol
@@zachbergmann7916 it was popular in real life because that’s still how most people interacted.
10 year later and there is still time to get it 7 million
This video inspired me to take up stopmotion when I was just 10 years old. 10 years later I still haven't forgotten how important this video is to me.
now 15 years :o woah
2021 - Still enjoying this Masterpiece of Stop Motion Movie
Hell yes

Why would it ever not be? 😁
Such an iconic video from the weird and wonderful early years of RUclips! No ads, sponsors, or subscribers. Just creative content for the fun of it
Nearly 8 years since this was put on RUclips, and it's STILL amazing to watch. Just brilliant, including that rockin' soundtrack by Christopher Donovan.

needs an hd remake
And here we are, my friend, 14 years into the future. And it still strikes a chord of nostalgia in you, no matter how many times you watch it.
16 years later, still here.
One of my first yt vids i ever seen
Zype Shifty Me too-classic one!
+Zype Shifty. Me too :D

This still makes me so happy. Great memories of watching this a million times in high school in the 2000s.

Man, 17 years later, and this video is still so good. First video on RUclips i ever favorited.
Amazing. Thanks!
This has been stuck in my mind for over a decade. I had to look it up again. It is still one of the most clever and fun videos I have seen.
This video speaks to me deeply. Sometimes I have dreams where I'm floating a bit, not too high and I can advance by will. Not walking, not jumping, just like I was wearing skates and my will propels me forward. It's such a wonderful feeling.
17 years later. Still enjoyed
15 years later, still going strong! Let's see how far they'll go!
I remember when this came out years ago. I watched in when it only had afew thousand views
Amazingly done! Thoroughly enjoyed watching
16 years later... So glad I saved this video in favorites.
This video brings back memories of college in 2006-07. The world was a simpler time then and Facebook was actually cool.
I was in 9th grade when this came out lol
I remember loving this video when I was 14. Now I love it and I'm 29 😂
2nd best part of this video is coming back to reminisce with ancient RUclipsrs like us
This seriously belongs in the Stop-motion hall of fame!
I was first shown this masterpiece by my school friends when it came out 16 years ago, when I was just 12 years old. I love coming back to rewatch from time to time! Good times
yeah, been watching this one every now and then for years. I love the music.
It's me, back again 10 years later. hope to see you again in 10 years!
Aww...that ending always gets me teary by how beautiful it turned out...

Same
Blame Google, they are more or less solely responsible for sucking the soul and heart out of the RUclips community

Do you even remember writing that comment?
Still a masterpiece.
Severely underrated even today
Corridor, anyone?
Wassup.
This is my first time watching this video and I still got a fucking nostalgia effect somehow.
I remember I had a dream once where I moved around like in this video! XD
This video is one of the all time classics of youtube! :)
16 years and I still come back to watch. Awesome work.
wow I remember when people had the attention span to watch a video this long. Been on my favorites list since shortly after it came out.
I finally found it. This is a time capsule.
One of the best youtube video ever made
I remember when this video was new. Still rocks!
I remember watching this video when I was younger and then going to audition to be in a commercial and I walked into the room and I see these 2 there. My little brain was blown. Later that day I got a call saying they wanted me to be in the commercial and I was the happiest child in my town XD
Haha awesome! What commercial? And who are you?
This is probably my 80th or so time watching this video. Enjoy life fellas 🍻
Maybe 100th time now. Masterpiece fellas.

Saw this video in 8th grade while learning about stop motion animation in my computer class. So nostalgic, I still watch this every now and then.😊
First thing I favorited on RUclips ever. Before RUclips was RUclips
This is why RUclips was invented, not for stupid podcasters.
true
So what about your channel?

The Golden Age of RUclips.
2022 - 16 years and still rocking!

Somebody watching at 2019?

EPIC! First time I watched it in 2007! ))
So glad I was able to find this again!

I remember when this came out. It was groundbreaking.
this is so trippy!! can't believe I'm only finding this right now xD we make live action stop motion too!
Subscribing
Anyone here from Niko?
I almost didn't make it through the playlist, I actually live like 3 blocks from that playground they filmed at, small world I guess
Yeah
does it look still the same nowadays?
That soundtrack is immortal.
Who is watching in 2015????
+Andre Johnson not me
+Herman Chuy 2016
Still watching in 2016
+annoyedandroid Same here. Saw this eons ago. Decided to show it to my kids, which I now have.
lol , watching it 2016
When the Internet was real
xD who is watching it in 2016?
14 years later still rockin
Still going back here
just coming back for my annual memory of the sickest video of 2000s era youtube
good art never dies
It warms my heart to see this again
I just discovered this work of art, it's beautiful!!!
I discovered this video before three of my four children were born. Now I come back to watch it once a year at least. Awesome music!!!
one of the OG stop motion vids on youtube, still lovin it 7 years later
16 years ago my friend and I tried to run in the same way in winter. We slid on the ice. So many pleasant memories thanks to you guys!
Amazing! Love to hear this
Linked this to a friend in 2007. Lots of fun watching it again!
So much nostalgia. One of the few old but gold videos on RUclips, and probably, all of the Internet.
Was heartbroken for a minute when I couldn’t remember what to search to find this! A correct guess of “stop motion 2006” saved me. Used to watch this every week when this came out and I was an aspiring youtuber
The final scene showing the night view always leaves me with a deep sense of lingering emotion.
I think this was literally the first video I ever watched on youtube. Good to know it's still here.
I remember i watched this video clip six years ago, its music still resounds in my head but i could not find the clip itself
now, i finally managed to fetch it !
i always like to hear this music when i want to cheer myself up , love you guys !
This is the earliest vid I remember watching on youtube, too.
I found it back when RUclips had a feed of highlighted videos going from top to bottom, and this was way up there.
Seriously, watching this brought my tears. It’s kinda cool and nostalgic at the same time
I have my misgivings about a lot of how searching for stuff on RUclips goes, but "stop motion fight old" led me here at least.
I had to go on Reddit and ask them lol I remembered watching this years ago when it wasn't even that old but I couldn't remember it, all I remembered is it was a stop motion fight with two guys lol 😆
one thing i really do enjoy about YT is finding these little gems in the rough.
also, this has something of a pretty strong 90's era feel to it-
the one guy is reminiscent of Anthony from RHCP w/the ponytail and it would easily show up on Beavis&Butthead.
i would love to do vids like this.
in fact, i just might include some stop-motion in whatever musicvid we do next to give myself a platform gimmick; this vid here is certainly not gimmicky tho, this is unadulterated creativity!
thx 4 the inspo&keep it up!
those drums changed my life
Can't believe I'm here in 2020, loved this video
I haven't seen a stop motion video as good as this since it was uploaded
One of the first truly great youtube videos, still great in 2022!
This is the first video I added to my Favorites on RUclips. I watch it once a year or two and always cheers me up. Thank you Paul!
Thank you! I'm so pleased to hear this
This was my all time favorite youtube video back in the day!
My communications-technology teacher showed us this video in class today. Brilliantly done; I can only imagine how much work it took.
We're almost at 15 years. Wow. I'd love to see an HD remake with the two gentlemen as old as they are now.
Haha Tony and I live in different parts of the country now, but maybe someday it'll happen!
6 years on and I still love this video.
The first ever video I saw on You Tube. I loved it then & I love it now. Great video guys
So much patience involved in filming this. This was one of the first videos I watched on RUclips, now my kids watch it.
I have watched this video so many times over the past five years. This was literally the first youtube video I ever watched, and it still stands as one of the best videos I have seen on here. You guys are awesome. Just wanted to thank you for your greatness.
I've seen around 40 Stop-motions here on youtube. This is the BEST.
