sorry for the short video. being sick sucks. on the bright side we're almost at 400k subs!!!funny how 15 minutes is considered short for my channel. y'all are SPOILED
I just wanna point out how many years it’s been since the Max headroom guy took over the TV broadcast and not a single bit of information has been revealed about him, I wonder if he watches back videos like these, enjoying the fact he’s gone completely dark and unknown to everyone. It’s a little creepy to think about, what are the chances of him taking over our TVs again nowadays?
I could see how in the 1970's that the Vrillon message would COMPLETELY freak people out back when people didn't have a deep understanding of space or aliens
Speaking of hacked things, in Mexico, cartoon network’s site got hacked many years ago. I remember I used to come back from school and entering the site to play some games and that particular day I saw adult content instead of the usual layout. I believe they got lots of complaints because during the “news” segment on tv (on CN’s channel) they put a warning not to enter the website since it was “unavailable” and displayed “odd content”. They also advised the parents to monitor their kids while they use their computers.
Omg I remember this happened to me too but, in the US! I remembered I was watching an episode of Totally spies and on the layout was promoting cam girls! I clicked on it and it redirected me to the cam girl website. Let me know if anyone else experienced this.
I don't really know If this is real or not, like I don't really know if all the "Happy Tree Friends accidentally aired on Boomerang" but like any other things that hasn't been uncovered, we may never know.
I remember the Handy Mandy incident. I was at my moms friends house bc I was sick. I was around seven when it happened. I remember she was in her backyard getting oranges and I was watching Handy Mandy until the sex scene popped up. I remember watching in absolute confusion until she came inside and yelled so loud and turned the tv off.
Dude I remember the time I was jump scared at night by the US govt with Barack Obama on TV announcing they k worded Osama bin Laden when I was in high school. It was a legit TV "hack" by the government over all the channels but it scared the FUCK out of me.
As a kid I used to wake up in the middle of the night to watch Family/Disney channel just to watch Lizzie McGuire and Phil of the Future and all them classic old shows, one night I was watching, it was like 2 AM and all of a sudden it was like this high pitched noise, and then it was like the classic coloured lines thing with a spinning pug face in the middle, idk how long it lasted for but it felt like forever and it scared me sm
I was watching satellite tv in Hawaii during the 80’s as a kid, WGN, when the Max Headroom dude hi Jacked the airwaves. I watched it happen live. It was rather disturbing and I will absolutely never forget the creepy feeling that it caused me to feel. The spanking part in particular lol 😂
@@nekrokodylREAL it would be so creepy imo. like imagine just being a 7 year old watching cartoons or whatever and all the sudden there's distorted audio playing while some guy is acting as high as hell. 💀
I have fallen down the Max Headroom incident rabbit hole SO many times. Yet I still can't put my finger on why it makes me so uncomfortable and uneasy?
Well, the creepy mask, the fact you can barley make out wtf he's saying sometimes, and the fact he keeps swaying erratically is PROBABLY the reason why, it's so fucking stupid that I wanna laugh but it creeps me out at the same time.
Uncanny valley effect. The mask looks like a person, so your brain recognizes it as the face of a person. However, because of the artificial, stiff smile on the mask, your brain can’t fully register it as a real human and it makes you feel uncomfortable. It’s your brain deciding for you “oh damn that shits not normal fuck that”. 🌈🌠The More You Know🌠🌈
Same, and yet somehow I'm only just learning that Matt Frewer played the original Max Headroom, and my mind is blown. Taggert from Eureka will always be one of my favorite sci-fi TV characters 😂 (I know he's been in a million other things though)
My tv has gotten Hijacked once and it was so unsettling. My dad changed the channel to Hulu and put on the second to last episode of American Horror Stories. When my dad put on the episode the tv turned off then turned to a random recording of a window to a room that looked just like my living room. So someone might have been watching us…
There's one I learned about recently via NEXPO. I dunno if it counts as a hijacking as the station never came forward to say it was a hijacking, but it's very suspicious. So in 2016, WKTV was interrupted by the emergency alert system, with a message about a hazardous materials warning in effect, followed by the phrase, "would you, could you, on a train?" That day, WKTV said it was an accidental broadcast of a test alert that wasnt meant to be used. An odd test message, but okay. The following day however, there was a serious train accident in Hoboken, New Jersey at the train terminal. Given the strange Dr. Seuss quote, "would you, could you, on a train?" used in the alert the day prior, people believed the two incidents were connected. WKTV once again stated the message was just an accident, even passing blame into FEMA, who then said they didnt put out the alert, and to this day no one knows what really happened. We dont know the reason the train crashed, like no ones been indicted for it, and we dont know if the emergency alert was an accident or the work of a hijacking. Edit: stupid thumbs, cant spell anything right
OMG i was coming to the comments to say this!! damn bro, you read my brain. I lived in Utica at the time and what a weird piece of history to be a part of??
The max headroom broadcast hijacking always freaked me out, it was the combination of the stiff and unnatural smile of the mask and the weird erratic movements that just scared me.

i cant tell how happy i was when i got out from school on a long Monday day and got to see one of the most interesting topics from one of my favorite youtubers. THANK YOU TUV!
I've never experienced hijackings before but im always afraid like sometimes im watching Disney Channel and the screen and sound Lags and freezes which freaks me out cause you never know if it's some glitch in the system , some funny thing like a roblox person dancing or the most disturbing shit ever
The show was playing called "Mayday," about plane crashes, and presumably this show like all of them, plays audio of mayday calls from distressed flights, and also probably cockpit voice recordings from air tragedies. The audio sounds familiarly like some pilot voice recording I've heard in other plane crash videos, like as the pilots last words as the thing noses down. if there was a digital glitch in the tape played broadcast it could stick on the audio and loop it until it was caught and reset by the technician at the station.
The first episode I watched from them was about KLM Cityhopper Flight 433, and I think the next one was Southwest Flight that sucked one passenger out due to engine failure, probably 1420 or 1380
your videos will never get old. even though i’ve seen all this stuff already, it’s your personality that keeps me here rewatching all the same stuff. i hope you feel better
What I want to do, is to broadcast a message about roblox, in multiple languages, showing their unethical acts, and including photos of plane crashes, with a message displaying about how roblox will not stand until the end of their company occurs, including their unethical acts.
I saw a video a while back that detailed the technical details of the Max Headroom incident. Since the broadcast station of the sports channel was a massive building with incredibly powerful antennas and equipment, the FCC, radio experts, and investigators all concluded that the hackers had to have been in a nearby skyscraper with equally powerful transmitters, able to take over their channel antennas. Although they never found the people responsible (obviously), they all accepted the theory that whoever was responsible, had ready access to a sister tower and just wanted to play around. Either way, whoever did it had excellent skills in signal intrusion, and was able to outsmart all of the investigators. It was probably a bunch of kids whose dad probably worked at another station, and they took advantage of the equipment while the adult was taking a dump.
The people behind the Max Headroom incident are still out there and there's a good chance that they watch videos of themselves. So, they might be watching this very video. Pretty cool.
Tuv is genuinely one of my favourite youtubers right now. His commentaries are never boring and they are always interesting. I discovered this channel not long ago and man, I am now addicted to watching his content. There are people who make these kind of videos but they are never as good as Tuv
Make sure to be getting some rest Tuv. Your mental and physical health is more important to us than these videos. The videos can wait. I hope you get well soon. But thank you for posting even though you're not feeling the best.
6:29 wow what a pleasant commercial for an easy bake pancake maker. I sure hope nothing bad happens or some emergency alert comes in and interrupts it!
I remember watching some documentary on the Max Headroom interruption and it was believed that the person who did it was within a short distance of the station due to limited capabilities. Imagine the person was just a short distance away and weren't able to determine who it was. Just in (long) arms reach!
I feel for you, getting sick during the holiday month..just recovering from a sinus infection myself...one that the first rapid care doc I went to said was just a cold. If you look up the "jesus help us all lord" audio used in that hijacking, the sourced audio back story is eerie AF, not gonna lie. It involves an actual warzone, and saying more than that ruins the suspense.
The incident in my country was very creepy but i wasnt born at the time but there was a war in the most popular and biggest city called Vilnius well Russia started a war and they didin't want people to get news so they almost shot a girl on tv news live it was a crazy day and to this day we find this day special because we got our country back and this all started in 1991-01-13
Regards to Anthrax, the song “Fight Em Til You Can’t” is from their 2011 album “Worship Music”. That’s the only thing from that album related to that zombie thing
if we wanna talk about hijacking i should tell you my story... so , i live in an eastern european country ,and it was that time when momo was popular... i was a child back then and out of nowhere the tv started spelling latin words and images of momo and lots of gore. my country was tramautised and so was i ... i was with my friend and we were ALONE just imagine the terror we went through ... i still remember the photo...
I REMEMBER THAT!!! Somewhere on March 2019, I was 9 at the time, I was waking up, when my mom showed me a news video that has slideshows of people's arms with very big wounds, and one of the images is the sculpture of Momo, that is taken from Japan. It's actually just a statue, but my mom said when someone messages me, I would tell her about it. Apparently, it's another blackmail scam, but a very deadly one. It's called the "Blue Whale Challenge* and if you know, you know. Basically, if a person received a text from a stranger convincing them to play a game, then the person is a victim. It said that you would have 50 days of daily tasks, the first days are not too bad, but in the last day, you would have to kill yourself. And if you don't follow the orders, then their family would be killed or kidnapped, be assassinated or idk. But it has consequences. One of the stranger's preferred profile picture is the sculpture of Momo, so that the victims would get scared easily and follow their orders. Some people say it's fake, but some say it isn't, in fact, some people did killed themselves when playing it. RIP to those who died... And I think Xplo Gamer made a parody video of that like 2-3 years ago.
I really wanted you to talk about the Wyoming Incident, a tv hijack were a lot of text and 3d images of people with creepy faces was shown. The disturbing thing about this incident was that people who watched it had a physical reaction to it. Things like headaches, nausea, vomiting and more happened to viewers while watching. It might also be a warning to you for this if you want to cover it up, because it might happen to you. Not pressuring tho, the video is still amazing! Keep it up! Edit: Ok so apparently the whole story is fiction, which means that it isn't true. Thanks for the info guys.
Was Max Headrooms character/legacy turn negative after this? Like was the show he was on or commercials he was in,we’re they discontinued or did he have any back lash from this? I know he had nothing to do with this (the actor) but I wonder if the team that created the character had to go back and never use his character again
bro i saw a yt vid of behind the scenes of the max headroom hack and it looked legit with how they made the background and the person behind the mask was rlly aggressive
Dude I genuinely love your videos, always makes me so happy because of your personality, and cheers me up even when Im really down, keep up the good work, hoping the best for you!
Without these Broadcast Intrusions, we wouldn't have analog horror at all! Media from the early 1900s to 1969 can be creepy to most. So with the hijacks, it's best that we'd appreciate analog horror inspired by these events(take the Wyoming Incident ARG/creepypasta for example); especially on the internet! 😁
oh man the montana dead bodies alert I remember hearing about that years before I started listening to anthrax fight em til you can't is one of my favorite songs but for the longest time I couldn't shake that feeling like I recognized the voice in the intro from somewhere
i’ve been really enjoying your content no matter what old and new. it’s so good to be able to watch a bunch of crazy stuff retold with your calm voice. good to watch before bed :)
Hijackers in the 80's or 70's were just so silly. But Vrillen was just calm and wanted world peace pretending to be an alien. The person who was Vrillen is so sweet. I love that guy. He had such a creative idea for world peace. That's adorable bro. Also..HELP WHAT? MACDOOGLE? What kind of last name is that- *Falcon and Snowman part
BRO I AM IN ACTUAL SHOCK RIGHT NOW. I've been watching your channel since the damn beggining, like i watched every single one of your instagram tips videos back when you had like 4k subs, i always remembered looking at your channel and thinking about the potential you have. And i am so happy you actually did it lmao, 400k subs, you are an actual legend!!
Those guys behind that Max Headroom hack are too ahead of their time. Only 34 years later, their hack would come to the level of basically any other weird 21st Century internet humor we have now.
To be honest I'd be okay with tuv canceling this grind month since he's sick. I can relate to feeling of having to work and look at a bright ass screen while your body feels like it's against you
Fact about the Jesus Christ help us all video, The man who shouts “Jesus Christ,help us all lord”, is actually a Vietnam soilder. There is footage of this and it’s somewhere on this site. anyways,thought you just wanted to know
I love how tuv just try’s his best to make us happy and he even went out of his way to literally make a video while he was sick :((( AND HE DONATES TO GREAT CAUSES?? bruh atp he deserves so much love and like everything. ily tuv
I once woke up in the middle of the night after a nightmare, and I saw a hijack of some werid alien goblin with real eyes and it just jumpscared me and yeah, I'm not sure if I'm true because I did just wake up from a nightmare, and I kinda can hallucinate things right after I'm scared and it's the middle of the night
Dude i just really love his execution in presenting these disturbing content. It feels like he's really in front of you just talking with you (like a podcast or sumthin) and it doesn't really feel like watching creepy shit. Also he really cares about his viewers lol
He’s a really good orator and would make an excellent podcast presenter. He is engaging and interesting to listen to and watch. Keep up the good work!!
I wish the people that did the max headroom hijacks would come forward since the statue of limitation ended in the 90s so they can't be charged for it but at the same time them still keeping it a mystery is why it's the greatest example of trolling the world has seen
It took me 8 months to finally watch this video because since seeing it 4 years ago, the Max Headroom incident has given me nightmares and I've had a hard time thinking about it, so this was the only video you've made I haven't seen But now that lots of videos about it are getting recommended to me, I finally got over it! Good video as always :D
When we still paid for cable, my mom and I were watching L&O SVU one afternoon and I think there was a hijacking. It only lasted a few seconds, but the screen faded to black with a special effect. A voice said "the time is now to rise against " and a logo flashed with what looked like a brand name? I looked it up right after and found NOTHING and I mean NOTHING on the entirety of the internet about it. Still weirds me out to this day.
Watching your vids and just hearing your voice brightens my day and listening to your vids while working and getting through the day makes it alot easier, I hope you feel better soon!
Max Headroom is definitely my fave! It’s so mysterious and cool, that I can’t even imagine who that person was. Hopefully we’ll gain information soon, or maybe it’s better not knowing. Just because it’s so scary not knowing who it was.
OMG my dad works at WGN and he had used to work back when he like started like people that worked during that time and they would like tell stories about the hijack it’s crazy
I vaguely remember the Jesus Christ, Help Us one. I was around 10 and used to watch those type of shows with my parents. Iirc we all kinda just sat there confused since it seemed out of place.
BROO i’ve been getting migraines all week 😭 so i def understand how hard it is and i appreciate you pushing through! make sure to take care of yourself thought! aspirin and water!!!

@Wyatt P is this guy gay?
nice pfp.
I've never experienced hijackings before but im always afraid like sometimes im watching Disney Channel and the screen and sound Lags and freezes which freaks me out cause you never know if it's some glitch in the system , some funny thing like a roblox person dancing or the most disturbing shit ever
imagine if they had twitter during the max headroom hijack 💀
Lmao

Props to Tuv for being sick with a headache and still delivering an amazing video
Yessirrrrrrr
The show was playing called "Mayday," about plane crashes, and presumably this show like all of them, plays audio of mayday calls from distressed flights, and also probably cockpit voice recordings from air tragedies. The audio sounds familiarly like some pilot voice recording I've heard in other plane crash videos, like as the pilots last words as the thing noses down. if there was a digital glitch in the tape played broadcast it could stick on the audio and loop it until it was caught and reset by the technician at the station.
The first episode I watched from them was about KLM Cityhopper Flight 433, and I think the next one was Southwest Flight that sucked one passenger out due to engine failure, probably 1420 or 1380
your videos will never get old. even though i’ve seen all this stuff already, it’s your personality that keeps me here rewatching all the same stuff. i hope you feel better
couldn’t have worded it better myself

What I want to do, is to broadcast a message about roblox, in multiple languages, showing their unethical acts, and including photos of plane crashes, with a message displaying about how roblox will not stand until the end of their company occurs, including their unethical acts.
Can we just appreciate how “Vrillon” introduced himself? Definitely a worthy bestie.

I saw a video a while back that detailed the technical details of the Max Headroom incident. Since the broadcast station of the sports channel was a massive building with incredibly powerful antennas and equipment, the FCC, radio experts, and investigators all concluded that the hackers had to have been in a nearby skyscraper with equally powerful transmitters, able to take over their channel antennas. Although they never found the people responsible (obviously), they all accepted the theory that whoever was responsible, had ready access to a sister tower and just wanted to play around. Either way, whoever did it had excellent skills in signal intrusion, and was able to outsmart all of the investigators. It was probably a bunch of kids whose dad probably worked at another station, and they took advantage of the equipment while the adult was taking a dump.
The people behind the Max Headroom incident are still out there and there's a good chance that they watch videos of themselves. So, they might be watching this very video. Pretty cool.
I highly doubt that people probably in there mid 50s watch youtube and who knows they may be dead
I found this guy through his iceberg videos and I'm so glad I did. He seems like such a good genuine person. Happy to be a new subscriber
I found him from penguinz0
@@Bird_Manukilla i found penguinz0 bc of tuv

Tuv is genuinely one of my favourite youtubers right now. His commentaries are never boring and they are always interesting. I discovered this channel not long ago and man, I am now addicted to watching his content. There are people who make these kind of videos but they are never as good as Tuv
6:57
The pancakes are the ultimate weapons against the undead
Make sure to be getting some rest Tuv. Your mental and physical health is more important to us than these videos. The videos can wait. I hope you get well soon. But thank you for posting even though you're not feeling the best.
I was born in 2007 😭 7 months and 23 days days after that Disney Hijacking (December 24th)
6:29 wow what a pleasant commercial for an easy bake pancake maker. I sure hope nothing bad happens or some emergency alert comes in and interrupts it!
I’d personally like to say thanks to Tuv for really trying hard for us even though he’s sick. Feel better man 💕💕
Let's go bring him some soup
6:17
F*ck That imagine watching TV at 2 a.m & they "highjack" the show you're watching informing about a TORNADO WARNING trust me that scared me like hell
I remember the pancake commercial because everyone at my school in 3rd grade kept on spreading word of zombies coming to life lol
I remember watching some documentary on the Max Headroom interruption and it was believed that the person who did it was within a short distance of the station due to limited capabilities. Imagine the person was just a short distance away and weren't able to determine who it was. Just in (long) arms reach!
For those who are wondering, in the music video of rap god by Eminem he is supposed to look like Max Headroom (the first hijack on this video)
I love that the max headroom is still a open mystery most of the hackers seem to drop themselves in it so to see one that still stumps people is great
I feel for you, getting sick during the holiday month..just recovering from a sinus infection myself...one that the first rapid care doc I went to said was just a cold.
If you look up the "jesus help us all lord" audio used in that hijacking, the sourced audio back story is eerie AF, not gonna lie. It involves an actual warzone, and saying more than that ruins the suspense.
The incident in my country was very creepy but i wasnt born at the time but there was a war in the most popular and biggest city called Vilnius well Russia started a war and they didin't want people to get news so they almost shot a girl on tv news live it was a crazy day and to this day we find this day special because we got our country back and this all started in 1991-01-13
Is that girl alive???
@@dripjaeger627 yea but old
I like how you literally look so calm even though ur talking about morbid topics
Regards to Anthrax, the song “Fight Em Til You Can’t” is from their 2011 album “Worship Music”. That’s the only thing from that album related to that zombie thing
But fr tho, the song is so cool that I kept it in my playlist for months
if we wanna talk about hijacking i should tell you my story...
so , i live in an eastern european country ,and it was that time when momo was popular...
i was a child back then and out of nowhere the tv started spelling latin words and images of momo and lots of gore.
my country was tramautised and so was i ... i was with my friend and we were ALONE just imagine the terror we went through ... i still remember the photo...
I REMEMBER THAT!!! Somewhere on March 2019, I was 9 at the time, I was waking up, when my mom showed me a news video that has slideshows of people's arms with very big wounds, and one of the images is the sculpture of Momo, that is taken from Japan. It's actually just a statue, but my mom said when someone messages me, I would tell her about it.
Apparently, it's another blackmail scam, but a very deadly one. It's called the "Blue Whale Challenge* and if you know, you know.
Basically, if a person received a text from a stranger convincing them to play a game, then the person is a victim. It said that you would have 50 days of daily tasks, the first days are not too bad, but in the last day, you would have to kill yourself. And if you don't follow the orders, then their family would be killed or kidnapped, be assassinated or idk. But it has consequences.
One of the stranger's preferred profile picture is the sculpture of Momo, so that the victims would get scared easily and follow their orders.
Some people say it's fake, but some say it isn't, in fact, some people did killed themselves when playing it. RIP to those who died...
And I think Xplo Gamer made a parody video of that like 2-3 years ago.
I really wanted you to talk about the Wyoming Incident, a tv hijack were a lot of text and 3d images of people with creepy faces was shown. The disturbing thing about this incident was that people who watched it had a physical reaction to it. Things like headaches, nausea, vomiting and more happened to viewers while watching. It might also be a warning to you for this if you want to cover it up, because it might happen to you. Not pressuring tho, the video is still amazing! Keep it up!
Edit: Ok so apparently the whole story is fiction, which means that it isn't true. Thanks for the info guys.
@MrSyph wait what
That was scary as hell
@@santiy2081 the headaches and stuff were fake i think he is saying the hijack wasn't though
@@bouboi576 oh thx for the info
Yeah 333 special presentation fuckin traumatized me
Was Max Headrooms character/legacy turn negative after this? Like was the show he was on or commercials he was in,we’re they discontinued or did he have any back lash from this? I know he had nothing to do with this (the actor) but I wonder if the team that created the character had to go back and never use his character again
bro i saw a yt vid of behind the scenes of the max headroom hack and it looked legit with how they made the background and the person behind the mask was rlly aggressive
I respect that alien/man/thing, that’s a damn good message
Dude I genuinely love your videos, always makes me so happy because of your personality, and cheers me up even when Im really down, keep up the good work, hoping the best for you!
don’t care
@@cozy2348 nobody asked for your negative comment , have a nice day though !
6:15 hearing the beep immediately got my attention and i also instinctively paniced lol, ig the eas is doin its job
Without these Broadcast Intrusions, we wouldn't have analog horror at all! Media from the early 1900s to 1969 can be creepy to most. So with the hijacks, it's best that we'd appreciate analog horror inspired by these events(take the Wyoming Incident ARG/creepypasta for example); especially on the internet! 😁
School is getting stressful especially the semester is ending, but your videos is just making everything better ily tuv
Same :D
oh man the montana dead bodies alert
I remember hearing about that years before I started listening to anthrax
fight em til you can't is one of my favorite songs but for the longest time I couldn't shake that feeling like I recognized the voice in the intro from somewhere
i’ve been really enjoying your content no matter what old and new. it’s so good to be able to watch a bunch of crazy stuff retold with your calm voice. good to watch before bed :)
Who else always taps the like button before the video even starts 🙋♀️ love what you do Tuv ❤️
Me for sure

Me lol
I already know that his content is amazing
Hijackers in the 80's or 70's were just so silly. But Vrillen was just calm and wanted world peace pretending to be an alien. The person who was Vrillen is so sweet. I love that guy. He had such a creative idea for world peace. That's adorable bro.
Also..HELP WHAT? MACDOOGLE? What kind of last name is that-
*Falcon and Snowman part
BRO I AM IN ACTUAL SHOCK RIGHT NOW. I've been watching your channel since the damn beggining, like i watched every single one of your instagram tips videos back when you had like 4k subs, i always remembered looking at your channel and thinking about the potential you have. And i am so happy you actually did it lmao, 400k subs, you are an actual legend!!
Those guys behind that Max Headroom hack are too ahead of their time.
Only 34 years later, their hack would come to the level of basically any other weird 21st Century internet humor we have now.
9:39 only in new jersey of course
I live there.....
To be honest I'd be okay with tuv canceling this grind month since he's sick. I can relate to feeling of having to work and look at a bright ass screen while your body feels like it's against you
I agree with you
@@C0GNITIVE-DISS0NANCE thank u
@simmsquee u gotta be trollin
@Wyatt P at least hes making good money lol
He wants to grind because of the December cash, which I respect.
Found your channel yesterday, watched 8 hours of videos back to back. Settled in for another binge today 🕺 thanks for doing what you do!
In 1971 all tvs in America shut off and people report hearing whispers
Fact about the Jesus Christ help us all video, The man who shouts “Jesus Christ,help us all lord”, is actually a Vietnam soilder. There is footage of this and it’s somewhere on this site.
anyways,thought you just wanted to know
Ohhhhh
thats kinda sad
@@vickytop9 actually he was just entering the war site in a tank,he saw and said “Jesus Christ,help us all lord”
I love how tuv just try’s his best to make us happy and he even went out of his way to literally make a video while he was sick :((( AND HE DONATES TO GREAT CAUSES?? bruh atp he deserves so much love and like everything. ily tuv
I once woke up in the middle of the night after a nightmare, and I saw a hijack of some werid alien goblin with real eyes and it just jumpscared me and yeah, I'm not sure if I'm true because I did just wake up from a nightmare, and I kinda can hallucinate things right after I'm scared and it's the middle of the night
Dude i just really love his execution in presenting these disturbing content. It feels like he's really in front of you just talking with you (like a podcast or sumthin) and it doesn't really feel like watching creepy shit. Also he really cares about his viewers lol
Agreed 👍
He’s a really good orator and would make an excellent podcast presenter. He is engaging and interesting to listen to and watch. Keep up the good work!!
as someone who lives in montana, the zombie hack scared me to death lmfao
the fact that i live in great falls and i never knew that happened

I wish the people that did the max headroom hijacks would come forward since the statue of limitation ended in the 90s so they can't be charged for it but at the same time them still keeping it a mystery is why it's the greatest example of trolling the world has seen
It took me 8 months to finally watch this video because since seeing it 4 years ago, the Max Headroom incident has given me nightmares and I've had a hard time thinking about it, so this was the only video you've made I haven't seen
But now that lots of videos about it are getting recommended to me, I finally got over it! Good video as always :D
7:12 thankyou tuv, as a British person I am very happy you included Danny g from
When we still paid for cable, my mom and I were watching L&O SVU one afternoon and I think there was a hijacking. It only lasted a few seconds, but the screen faded to black with a special effect. A voice said "the time is now to rise against " and a logo flashed with what looked like a brand name? I looked it up right after and found NOTHING and I mean NOTHING on the entirety of the internet about it. Still weirds me out to this day.
That's sounds scary AF. I would be horrified and I would overthink ALOT if that happened to me
@@ToxicWasteX3 I think about it ALL the time it was so strange
@@TimeQuxxn sounds very strange
Watching your vids and just hearing your voice brightens my day and listening to your vids while working and getting through the day makes it alot easier, I hope you feel better soon!
Love you man, I feel what you going through. Your one of the few who understand life.
Max Headroom is definitely my fave! It’s so mysterious and cool, that I can’t even imagine who that person was. Hopefully we’ll gain information soon, or maybe it’s better not knowing. Just because it’s so scary not knowing who it was.
9:25 OMG I FUCKIN LOVED HANDY MANNY
Having some serious childhood flashbacks here
Fr😭
Yee 😢

OMG my dad works at WGN and he had used to work back when he like started like people that worked during that time and they would like tell stories about the hijack it’s crazy
