The story of Albert Zimmerman Heimer is a tragic one. He had an eventful life; starting with a boxing career in his youth, becoming an army major in his prime, serving as an assassin for the CIA in his middle age, working as a mall cop in his later years, and finally being recruited by the Arkum Sanitarium in his old age where he became a doctor. Due to his old age and experience, most people called him G-Pa or Grandpa. Later, Al was slowly dying from oldness and because he was so important to the team, he volunteered to have experimental procedures done on him to help him live longer. However, they also resulted in giving Albert terrible Alzheimers and thus most of his wisdom was lost. Margaret, his wife, didn't cope so well and slowly drove herself insane and donned a mask. She now recalls no memory of her husband's tragedy and neither does Al.
Well, he did say he took out the guy that shot JFK so I assumed he was working for some underground organization. The source your looking for is ruclips.net/video/i42bL-s69Jo/видео.html at the 31:38 mark.
I can never get over how you fully transform into a completely different person / character. It's easy to forget you are one single person. All of these characters seem like their own person. Well done.

As someone who's father passed away a couple years ago of early onset Alzheimer's this video was almost sweet in some sense. Bittersweet yes, but it actually brought up more good memories than bad ones. I hope any other people who have experienced this think of the good times instead of being upset.
I mean this is Arkham we are talking about, perhaps the doctor doesn't actually have Alzheimer's disease. maybe Professor Clemons just swapped his brain with a goldfish.
This character reminds me so much of my grandfather, he passed very recently from alzheimers after struggling with it for years. This video is actually kind of comforting, reminds me of some of the silly things he did within his last few years. Great content as always.
To this day one of the best ER's ASMRs. The shifting audio, softer than usual voice... Really awesome to listen to it from a DAC-sporting audio player and armature headphones before sleep. The analytic sound makes it feel like ER is literally whispering into your ear. The sound is 3D. I wish this track was available in FLAC outside of youtube.... And, yes, I've checked his Google Music(not bothering with anything else), it's not there...
@@transgendy I'm in a 3 year relationship now and I'm very happy. I'm so beyond lucky and grateful too. My entire family (including extended) supports me, and every one of my friends has supported me as well. I'm thankful everyday for the immense amount of love my friends and family have for me. Thank you all for asking!
I frequently stay up late to write and watching these Videos help 1. De-Stress about my deadline for my Senior Project 2. Help me get sleep And I can't stress enough i've been able to get over my anxiety because of these videos Thank you so much Uncle E
Gotta say, Rift, if I had the money for a mic, video camera, and a mask or two, I'd probably be asking for your blessing to make videos like yours. This is cool shit, and I really appreciate it. Keep up the good work, man!
Ok, so yea, after watching this I can kinda see why ppl may be offended, but only because it's so well done and real, almost too real maybe. Rift did his job a little too well this time. The "problem" might be that it wasn't done in enough of a jokative way but in more of a serious, sad way. Like every time he re-introduced himself it made me feel genuinely bad for the guy. At the exact same time though, some of the commentary was hilarious and some of the best yet. Did you come up with that beat yourself? That part made me geek. That and the pretend my finger is a social media account and you're following it.
Bold move having a character with alzheimer's, you manage to make me laugh but at the same time it makes me feel sorry for all the people with Alzheimer's Good work
He's basically just checking for any cancer of the throat or stomach or if you've got a lot of pain when swallowing because of a ulcer in your throat. Sorry if I geeked out a bit. I'm just really into medical stuff and I'm thinking of getting myself a job in the medical Field
"Speak now or forever hold your piece......You're not holding a piece are you?" *looks down quickly* I fucking died. That was f#%^@ing hilarious I'm not even joking I genuinely loved that moment it was perfect like something out of a stand up comedy it was genius
nice, I liked myself 4 years later and this channel is still best and the original, thanks God (or nature for atheists) that I am still blessed to know who I am
*sees comments complaining about triggered people* *sees comments about people complaining about triggered people* *sees buried triggered comments* *realize im laughing about an old man with Alzheimers* *realize i really dont care*
One question, before I forget- what, exactly, happens when one is buried in Margaret's garden, or when one merely goes out there? I personally have been buried there a few times, but I can't remember what happens and always wake up in my own bed. Any theories or similar experiences? I would love an answer if anyone knows the truth:)
Hi rift! I was wondering you could do a mental illness asmr?? I have ptsd and I really love your videos and sometimes watch them after a flashback. Keep up the awesome work man. Seriously love your work
I love the stress picking from this vid and the Halloween vid. I keep scrolling back to 40:40 on this and watching that bit over and over. Makes my scalp tingle like crazy! :D
Al Z. Heimer I see what you did there. To be honest, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Ephemeral Rift. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of ASMR, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head.
Yes. And you need to have extensive knowledge of deep philosophical concepts in order to even grasp the most simple jokes and concepts in these videos.
Oh, by the way, im Al. Z. Heimer, of the Arkam Sanitarium for Mental Rehabilitation, did you know that my friend Al works up there in Arkam, which reminds me that the Arkam Sanitarium is up there, yeah, a good friend of mine works at Arkam, yeah his names Al, Al Z. Heimer, he works at Arkam Sanitarium, up there in Arkam.......
Part of me is so sad, my grandfather had Alzheimer's. It's no joke, and the likelihood is that I'll have it too V_V (Still great work here, keep it up)
Yes its sad, but you set yourself up to be trolled. The internet is not really a safe space. Pretty much 99% of the old folks get Alz. If they don't die before hand. Its a fact of life.
There are a lot of comments here about anticipating offended people... but so far not seeing any offended comments that aren't jokes or sarcasm... I think we underestimated the general audience of these videos, I for one am proud that my fellow travelers of the rift are mature enough to not be offended by this. Good job guys 👍

I was kinda thinking that. So why does Grandpa think Margaret is his wife?
Fun fact: there is an Ephemeral Rift wiki. Please make this canon!
what did he do again?
I can see that the doctor moisturizes his hands a lot more than his face.
NippleOfOdin 😂
Moisturize me
came here to point that out but you beat me to it :D
Didn't grandpa tell us previously that he got a hand transplant?
Someone should give my channel some feedback
I can never get over how you fully transform into a completely different person / character. It's easy to forget you are one single person. All of these characters seem like their own person. Well done.

You better take me out on a date first before asking such questions

Hey this guy kinda reminds me of my acquaintance, Al Z Heimer. He’s a doctor down at Arkham Sanitarium. Great place.
I may have Alzheimer's, but at least I don't have Alzheimer's.
MrSeagull pears
MrSeagull Actually the best comment I've ever read
MrSeagull don’t think anyone wants it I just lost my grandad from Alzheimer’s dementia it ain’t nice
if you die and have Alzheimer, do you forget u died and come back?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Bittersweet yes, but it actually brought up more good memories than bad ones. I hope any other people who have experienced this think of the good times instead of being upset.
He should make a video with the same doctor, but he’s a young man and has a GREAT memory. Like what he had for breakfast 2 weeks ago.
i just noticed that *A*rkham *S*anitarium for *M*ental *R*ehabilitation is for ASMR
HOLEY SHEEEEEIIIIIITTTT! You just blew my mind, friend
I SEE WHAT YOU DID THURR. But it didn't work.
You dont say?
Yeah, it was obivious...
And i didn't notice until a couple days ago.(T^T)
Guys... guys...
It’s because he has Alzheimer’s.
Please hold your applause.
ER is such a talented humorist, the fact that the medium is ASMR is just that much of an extra treat.
I like how his name tag is upside down so that he can read it in case he forgets his name again. Your attention to detail is amazing, rift.
That feeling when you visit your grandpa with alzheimer on a regular basis and still are able to enjoy this video without getting triggered.
There are some feels i hope i never have to feel
Honestly though, I have no family that is affected but family friends and its heartbreaking.
I mean this is Arkham we are talking about, perhaps the doctor doesn't actually have Alzheimer's disease. maybe Professor Clemons just swapped his brain with a goldfish.
My grandma also had Alzheimer’s. I’m still okay with this video.
Ghost3210 I'm with you there bud, My (adoptive) mom would probably find this funny even
Grandpa are you qualified to... Grandpa what are you doing with that needle!? GRANDPA!?
This character reminds me so much of my grandfather, he passed very recently from alzheimers after struggling with it for years. This video is actually kind of comforting, reminds me of some of the silly things he did within his last few years. Great content as always.
i think its brilliant, funny, relaxing and actually brings light to the subject to what Alzheimer is.

Luckly he didn't forget his teeth this morning.
And he remembered to press the record-button after 2 tries.
He probably just forgot to take them out the night before.
I forgot what I was going to comment...
Jeff is usually the answer

“Al Heimer is a stand up guy”
That Al Heimer is shredded
We need another one of these with Al, I keep coming back to this one.
It's immersive to watch this over and over
I just love the papercups or tapping in general with the occasional repeated muttering of a single word or sentence. Another outstanding video!
*distant screaming*

my grandmother died of Alzheimers but I can still enjoy this video.
Well, what a fitting name for Grandpa

"Do you have any trouble swallowing?"
*Me:* I HAVE SEVERAL QUESTIONS
He's basically just checking for any cancer of the throat or stomach or if you've got a lot of pain when swallowing because of a ulcer in your throat.

“No, no, Elizabeth is my brothers name.” 😂😂😂

Patrolling the nuclear winter almost makes you wish for a Mojave.

Mustnot Benamed agreed
Caltash my old line 😂
Patrolling the comments almost make you wish they were didabled
Caltash hey, that’s my thing. Anyway, im gonna go nuclear winter the mojave during a patrol.
Couldn't fall asleep because of the laughter for the first 10 or so minutes but then the exhaustion got the best of me 😂😂 Great video
Anyone else go straight to the comments section?
Yep
That's because they're so fucking weird today...
Rex Casey what else would it be
DillondavoBMX i dive straight into them every time
Ye
Definitely one of my most favorite videos with ASMR
Sees everyone complaining about people triggered by video
*sees no triggered people*
Ironically the triggered people are the ones looking for triggered people. As is usual.
When it first released there were a few but they were burried.
It's funny. People getting triggered by the lack of triggered people...
i'm kinda triggered but i'm not going to ruin it for everyone else enjoying themselves
GlomorianPeacock yup
id love to see more of Dr. Al Z,Heimer
When he said 1:04, "The heck is my name?" That was funny as hell.
The beginning of this video is fucking gold
This is my favourite asmr video by far I love the concept ❤️
Same dude, I keep coming back to this one. So relaxing and funny.
My face exploded with contained laughter when he said By Cicle.
What if the so called doctors are actually the patients and they've just created a mutual reality where they're treating the true doctors! 0.o
Now that's one big plot twist!
This is your best ASMR video EVER ♥
goodness, that mask looks so authentic... it's like you've aged 30 years. great job.
I used to visit my grandma who had dimensia. Was there for a while though. Kept falling asleep.
Your hands are pretty youthful considering
Louis Bradburn He used a lot of lotion, he forgets so he uses lotion like 5 times a day
MonochromePilots nein u
18:30 is by far the funniest part of the video
Arkham Sanitarium for Mental Rehabilitation... I don't know why but I never noticed that before. Well played, Rift. Well played. Keep it up, Uncle E!
When I asked what your next video was gonna be about I did not expect this at all
The funny thing is that I actually forgot he uploaded this untill I saw it in my recommend list.
I am not a smart man
I don’t know what I’m more impressed about the voice or the mask
I think Ephemeral Rift is obsessed with the word "Sanctuary"...
doomshop I thought it was 'nefarious'.
I thought it was ampersand
Best doctor i've ever seen
Platitude for the day: If you don't mock yourself, eventually someone will do it for you.
Tavrin Callas yes yes yes and yes
I have watched this video so many times that I now say all the iconic lines with him while listening
Just bought a $500 pair of headphones and this was my goto asmr video for testing. My lord I haven't gotten this many tingles in YEARS
"She's out in Margret's garden" was pretty fuckin dark.
I don’t get it?
Just two minutes and I have tingled about a hundred times.
had this playing in hte background while studying and happened to listen in right as he said: ''James Hetfield is my favorite blues singer''
Omg yes Metallica is an amazing pop band
Have you heard their new song yet?? It’s called wrecking ball
This is honestly good
Its official he literally doesnt run out of ideas.😂

I really like the pen on clipboard sounds.
“You’re not holding a piece are you? We dont allow firearms in here. No no no.” 🤣😂
You knew this one was gonna be a blast within the first minute
This is more comedy than ASMR. Its hard to relax when you're laughing every few seconds.
