These videos are extremely well done, no other Minecraft videos give me goosebumps like yours do, when you made the gap and he appeared behind you, I got full body goosebumps. Great video, I wish you had more that I could watch. But I’ve already binged everything. I understand these must take a long time but please never stop making them.
I'm afraid that all the comments about him never escaping are true. They point out that the random cut to the bridge with the torch could've signified that he gave up and jumped. The text at the end confirms this by saying "The air looks colder here." In the end, no matter how persistent he was, he would've never escaped. No matter how worthy he was of escape, the backrooms didn't care. He knew this and decided that living in the backrooms was worse than any hell awaiting him in the afterlife. But it seems that hell wasn't what he found. Instead, he found peace.
20:15 one more thing about the theory that he jumped into the void: It specifically says: "I did not come here to wait any longer." Waiting is exactly what he did at the bridge. That's a really clever note I don't think anyone has picked up on yet
I love how (in my opinion) the ending has a cryptic message where he hallucinated the exit in the bridge level and jumped off into the void to end his suffering and misery in the backrooms
Wouldn’t work, dying to leave the backrooms is counted as cheating do he’d either be sent into the void and continue falling and falling for infinity or be sent to level run for your life.
[spoilers] I think that a more positive theory could be that the torch being put down at the end and the cut to the bridge could be symbolizing the eventual decision to move on, to continue down the path of whatever life has to throw at him, and that through all that perserverance, he did really make it. The "the air is cold here" could symbolize the cold feeling of death or want thereof, but it's moved past. This may be completely wrong, and I may be speculating in a way not intended, but I think it's at least possible that there may be a "happy" ending.
[SPOILERS] I don't think he ever left The torch placed at the end symbolises both the broken bridge as well as the overworld After passing this spot of the bridge countless times, each time, contemplating, he would see it a better option to throw himself off the edge, to end the torment The title is also weird, saying 'I Escaped [REDACTED] Days in the Backrooms Maybe his escape was not from the backrooms itself, but from spending 'i̶̠̋n̸̹̒f̵͖̈́i̸̙̓n̶̰̒i̷̙͌t̸̫͑e̶͔͒' days within it OR maybe not. He has shown to be extremely persistent throughout his journey, multiple times. Also the books hint that they were all written by himself, maybe on previous expeditions and the fact that he doesn't recognise or remember them could be a coping method to stay sane.
i can confirm the theory of the books, if you read all caps from every word in order, they spell things out like "HELL" or "RRR" (im not sure what this one means) and the most significative one "I AM YOU" at level 2000, all in all, very cool and great way of showing hidden lore put there for observant people.
Day 6945 (the last day counter that we see) is already a little more than 19 years. He kept exploring even after the counter faded, and judging by the how fast the day counter was going up in that last little compilation, I'm guessing that it took him ~30 years.
i think he meant minecraft days. 6945 minecraft days is about 104 days in real life (aka almost half a year, and he said it took almost half a year in description and pinned comment)
He places down the torch to signal the end of his journey, but the torch is also at the bridge jump, and then it zooms in on the void, which might mean he never even made the jump, but honestly, idk. I am likely overthinking it lol. EDIT: He likely committed death yourself by jumping into the void, which is why the torch is there, and him escaping could maybe signal him making peace and moving onto the afterlife. EDIT 2: The theory is basically confirmed, but I do think he made it the first time, but the second time he was broken and likely losing hope, and the only reason he went on was to get to the bridge and end it. There's also text at 21:03 saying "The air feels colder here" (its incredibly hard to read) but it also says that at 9:22 which basically proves this theory to be right. (thanks to Loofkutu for telling me about the "the air feels colder here" text at 21:03) EDIT 3: I don't think some people understand that this series probably doesn't go by the lore created by the community, but likely its Garfilled's own lore, yes he probably used levels from the fanmade stuff but that doesn't mean he's going by anyone else's lore. (aka respawning in the backrooms, because that was disproven in an older video.)
Honestly some of the best Minecraft content on the platform, the story telling is crazy and it keeps me at the edge of my seat the entire time. Love seeing how war you've come since the beginning of your channel and look forward to your future videos. Keep being great Garf!!
this feels like a parallel to life. the levels are set as different stages in life, each with its own challenges. the bridge seemed like the largest setback, a sort of breaking point, or near breaking point. the void, abyss, afterlife, peace... whatever it seemed to be. it represented a white flag, a sort of giving up on trying to finish the backrooms' challenges. but when one decides to persevere, to continue forth through the challenges, to jump across the gap instead of fall victim to its cold and eternal clutches, it gets harder. it gets harder and harder to continue, as it seems like there is no end unless you make one yourself. maybe the backrooms is a real place, a labyrinth that snatches people from their lives and forces their hand at survival inside of thousands of seemingly endless levels. or maybe the backrooms is life itself. maybe were all inside the backrooms, stuck in our own levels, facing our own challenges. someone may be sitting at the bridge, staring into the abyss, wondering if it would be easier to just give up. but of course it would be easier, but would it be right? is that what they really wanted? or do they want to be able to find peace, to be able to walk down that dank grey hallway and open that door to find the most beautiful sunrise theyd ever seen? thats what everyone wants, isnt it? a sunrise at the end of the struggle. an eternity of peace and calm after the turbulence of life, all of the things weve experienced. some have given up and have succumbed to the abyss. they fell, jumped, raised the white flag they had tucked inside of their belt. and others cleared the jump and kept going. they moved forward and believed that it would get better. there are ups, there are downs, and there are moments when even life itself is telling you to just give up, that its not worth it, that you should just stop. but you should never stop. you should keep going. whether youre stuck in the hotel or traversing the blazing hot desert, searching the shelves for anything you may find useful or placing your torch down at the cut in the bridge, you are in the backrooms. you are in life. it will be rough, it will be tough, and it will throw every stick, stone, and broken bone at you to try and make you break. to try and knock that torch out of your hands, but no. hold the torch tighter, because there is an end. there is always a good ending, for everyone. you just have to persevere long enough to see it.
20:48 I thought it was gonna fade out and say thanks for watching, but when it transitioned to the torch placed on the edge of the bridge, my jaw actually dropped. Its like little misfortune, but... Sadder
my theory is that garfilled wasn't able to escape the backrooms, he actually failed his jump on the level "the bridge" (or maybe he wasn't able to stop the voices), that's why the bridge appears at the end.
Am i the only person that noticed the many black figures in the videos? The first one is at 1:55 on the left side of the screen. It then appears behind him. If you miss the first hidden one there is one at 2:57 on the far right down the hallway. Here is a list of other sightings I found: 10:50 black figure in the far distance, although you are probably supposed to see this one. It also appears ahead. 12:14 figure barely in view in the center of the screen 12:46 same as above 19:22 middle left Also all the capital letters in the books spell HELL RRR I AM YOU If I missed anything please tell me.
Alright, the seemingly random caps on the books' text actually spells something, here they are in order: (2:11 - 2:39) Caps spell "HELL" (14:23 - 14:45) Caps spell "RRR" (?) (16:38 - 17:08) Caps spell "I AM YOU" These are pretty interesting easter eggs for the people like me that have a lot of free time. Although, the second book's caps are kinda puzzling... I wonder what the hell the "RRR" is about...

I agree with all of the theory comments saying he jumped into the void, but I also want to point out that at 7:42 Garf says "The only option was to keep moving forward, or succumb to the cold, and so I did." Garf here never specified, so when you first watch this video, you mostly likely assume "and so I did" meant he kept moving forward, but after watching the video, you know he "did", he succumbed to the cold.
In every book, there were capital letters scattered around in the sentences. Putting them all together, it forms 'HELLRRRIAMYOU.' As of now, this phrase does not have any meaning, But if you are planning to continue this series, I suggest you give a meaning to this, or maybe even create more of these odd patterns for us to decipher. Looking forward to the next video!
Honestly I would love to see Matt Pat to do an episode on this series, it's incredibly interesting and well put together. Good job man, you did amazing
Cool video! Also wanna say thanks for list of music used in this video. It's really good that you put it in the description. Some youtubers don't do that and makes me sad.
ok, so i have a theory. i think garfilled might be stuck in a cycle that he can actually change for his future self, he must have realized this sometime in between the dead servers video and now. the garf we see at the end is not the garf we were on the adventures with. neither are the original garf that entered the backrooms. the garf in the manhunt video is not the original garf. the original garf was only seen in the first video on the channel. when garf jumps down the pit the cycle resets. the garf at the end may be the final garf, the one to end the cycle. the server garf must be the one to write the books, or at least some of them due to him being the only one so far to realize that he wasn't the first. the one time he understood (sort of) is the servers video. this garf either aint the reacted smp garf or this takes place before redacted smp
I was wondering if the song "Buddy Stuart - In the valley of the sun" is copyrighted? Because its a great track and I would love to use it in one of my videos!
He probably had hallucinations or delusions after staying too long in the constant loop of the backrooms. It led to a cliff edge that seemingly looked like the end, but ultimately fell into his own sanity and jumped off the bridge (Thus the torch placement).
What I think happened is that once the exit led back to level zero, he went back to the bridge and jumped. He only imagined himself escaping. The notes and figures he encountered was only himself subconsciously knowing he would never leave.
[SPOILERS] That made it seem like he escaped but I don't think so. The sudden, seemly random cut back to that bridge hole makes me think that he didn't escape, he wasn't more powerful, he succumbed to the void and imagined escaping probably on the second time across the bridge...
Fun fact : In the official Backrooms wiki, Level 9999 is an amusement park called "Karmaland Amusement Park" which is a typical amusement park surrounded by ocean. If you take the roller coasters you will end up on different level depending on your karma (Which is some sort of rate telling how good or bad of a person you are depending on your actions) and if you have good enough karma you have a chance to actually escape the Backrooms. This level is one of the levels often argued to be "the last level of the Backrooms" like level 3999 and of course level 9223372036854775807.
I love your work man! The editing is so good! I don’t ever watch Minecraft videos anymore because I’m not a kid anymore, but when you upload, I click immediately.
This video is absolutely amazing. The cinematography. The music. The bits of humor. The tiniest bit of unsettlement. The plot. It’s all so amazing. It felt like a movie and I was locked in from when I first put it on, to when I finished it.
I really hope he escaped, possibly the torch being at the bridge could represent him passing his biggest challenge... but we all know the torch means that that was the last place Garfilled was, I'm just hoping I'm wrong
This was incredible. I found you after a rec from a super small yt channel called zii, amd thought id give it a look. Absolutely worth it this was absolutely AMAZING. The effort, the story, the visuals, the music, all combined for a beautiful work of art. I got chills in the last minute. So obsessed.
I remember watching this particular video when I had limited access to screens in general in a period during Winter Break. It was incredibly enjoyable and thanks for that.
Even though I can not get my head around the lore of this channel. This is the second Minecraft video to make me genuinely feel for the character. It’s produced so perfectly with just a silly idea of a guy escaping a never ending plain to now a cinematic masterpiece of mystery is amazing and takes pure skill. Keep it up mate
Theory: He fell into the void from the bridge and ended up in the hall way passed out BUT when he woke up he opened a whole new thing where he was separated into two people one his himself the other. The harbinger
in level 2000, the uppercase letters in the book state "IAMYOU", perhaps this could mean the person following him was him but in the future, because of all the times he didnt escape, and went back to the same level, but who knows he could have just died on the bridge jump
Wow I saw this video and thought the pictures in the thumbnail looked familiar ... it was weird to see my first map in here. It actually gave me motivation to work on my current wip map. This was a pretty good video man! Keep up the good work! :)
I've noticed in the books, the caps give messages. "HELL" In the Hub, "RRR" in the Hotel, which doesn't make sense? And in the End it reads "IAMYOU" which in itself is bone chilling, what does it mean when it says I AM YOU? Is the backrooms just a manifestation of Garfilled's mental instability? Is the monster a part of him, as in his inner demons? I have so many questions.
level 0 book with capitals reads out HELL and hotel reads out RRR idk what RRR means (maybe an acryonm) The end book reads out IAMYOU (with spaces it is I AM YOU) maybe he is stuck in a loop i havent watched it all yet so (now i have) anyways great video keep up the good work!
@@Thom_Flute maybe the backrooms recycles old memories for the "human" that is trapped down there to make them feel welcome and the backrooms dream-like but it is where they're suppose to be, like their reality?
20:25 this is exactly what it felt like coming out of what happened to me in 2023... 16 months of torture. That feeling never goes away ... Btw for me the torch on the bridge symbolizes your footprint in the backrooms. Like your light will forever be solidified in that darkness. Kinda beautiful tbh.
Anyone else notice the capitalized words in the books? I looked over it again and noticed this: hellrrriamyou Not sure what the "Hellrrr" part is, but the "Iamyou" makes perfect sense to me. This lore is so intriguing!
i think there is something to the books he reads in the story. each book has "randomly" placed uppercase letters with the first book spelling out "HELL", the second books seems to say "RRR" (dont ask me what that means) and the third book saying "I AM YOU" i find the torch theory to be a good one but i feel the books have something deeper to it, such as the number of pages or what page the texts are on. i was thinking that maybe you could combine all the text pages together and make one big message but some of the text would seem to overlap eachother. I feel like im missing something about the second book, "enjoy your stay"
I see somethingin the middle of the screen at 21:02 am i the only one? Edit: Also the last book says I AM YOU so what if another Garfeild did jump into the void at the bridge and thats why the level was mad at him we see a tourch on the bridge at the end and Garfeild placed his tourch down when hiss journy was over so maybe and alternate version of himself gave up. Sorry love these lore videos!
I didn't notice it at first but there is text there, I think it says "the air feels colder here" from what I can see, which i think gives further credence to the idea that he jumped into the void
never thought Minecraft and a Garfield skin could be so creepy and unnerving but I gotta give you credit this is really well shot and edited I really enjoyed it man just like your other backrooms video
So here’s what I gathered from what the levels are (or are inspired by) 1. Level 0: Basically just the level 0 from the original backrooms lore, mixed with some Cain Pixels and his own original twist much less yellow than the original. 2. The second level is DEFINITELY based on The Poolrooms, a more obscure level on the backrooms wiki. 3. The third level is something original. I don’t think there’s a snowy bridge level on the backooms wiki. 4. There’s a bunch of deserts in the back rooms, but this one is Level 440, that’s literally the name. Though it wasn’t actually JUST a desert. It was originally a forest which turned into a desert later on. Also you usually start in the level dying from dehydration. 5. The next one is Level 5 (obviously). This is one of the more visited levels in the original backrooms. Though, Level 5 is usually much more expansive, and there weren’t signs of snow in the original either. 6. Level The End An enigmatic level. One of the most famous levels in the backrooms. There’s no entities, and the computer can lead you basically anywhere IN the backrooms, it just can’t let you out. 7. Level 9999 This isn’t actually what Level 9999 is, the original level is “Karmaland Amusment Park” Though this seems as if it’s for the sake of the video.
Clues: 1st Book spell "HELL" in capital letters. Maybe a nod to how the backrooms are essentially hell. 2nd Book spelled "RRR". Maybe a nod to [REDACTED] SMP, since their logo is a simple . 3rd Book spelled "I AM YOU", which can hint to a possible SECOND Garfilled, who's looking to make the life of OUR Garfilled a living hell.
Writing this as I watch the video- Capital Letters in "the walls." spell: HELL Self explanatory. This place is hell. Capital Leters in "enjoy your stay" spell: RRR Which from what I can tell, means nothing. Capital Letters in "the end." spell: IAMYOU Put spaces in-between, and you come up with "I AM YOU." Is this future him trying to warn him? Is there some kind of loop at play here? Or is it just the backrooms or a different entity trying to mess with him? Who knows. No matter what, it seemed that he finally got his escape in the end :)
The music really hit me hard at 19:13 to 19:57. If you feeling down this will motivate you for sure. This just shows that no matter how or difficult certain things many be in your journey,keep trying and it will pay off.
Wow, I don’t know how I didn’t watch this sooner but I’m glad I watched it! I don’t think anyone has truly captured the horror of the backrooms as well as you have. Truly, this is spectacular. Can’t wait to see more of this ART, and have a great January all!
i think part of the reason the backrooms cannot be escaped from is that the backrooms is not a place but rather a "state of being" i sometimes question whether even death can be considered an escape from the backrooms as the backrooms seems to fundimentally alter what it means to exist
Just because there's no end to the Backrooms doesn't mean you can't canonically escape in multiple ways on multiple floors. Which one is correct is still unknown. Escape is very unlikely, but still possible.
I like to think that he did escape, and the torch simply signifies the biggest challenge he faced. Putting the past behind him, if you will. Going forwards from the backrooms. A guiding light to others trapped, perhaps. Perhaps that's what the torch on the bridge is.
this just goes to show that the backrooms are so horrifying that even if you take a mostly kids game and add backrooms elements to it, even it can be horrifying

this feels like a parallel to life. the levels are set as different stages in life, each with its own challenges. the bridge seemed like the largest setback, a sort of breaking point, or near breaking point. the void, abyss, afterlife, peace... whatever it seemed to be. it represented a white flag, a sort of giving up on trying to finish the backrooms' challenges. but when one decides to persevere, to continue forth through the challenges, to jump across the gap instead of fall victim to its cold and eternal clutches, it gets harder. it gets harder and harder to continue, as it seems like there is no end unless you make one yourself. maybe the backrooms is a real place, a labyrinth that snatches people from their lives and forces their hand at survival inside of thousands of seemingly endless levels. or maybe the backrooms is life itself. maybe were all inside the backrooms, stuck in our own levels, facing our own challenges. someone may be sitting at the bridge, staring into the abyss, wondering if it would be easier to just give up. but of course it would be easier, but would it be right? is that what they really wanted? or do they want to be able to find peace, to be able to walk down that dank grey hallway and open that door to find the most beautiful sunrise theyd ever seen? thats what everyone wants, isnt it? a sunrise at the end of the struggle. an eternity of peace and calm after the turbulence of life, all of the things weve experienced. some have given up and have succumbed to the abyss. they fell, jumped, raised the white flag they had tucked inside of their belt. and others cleared the jump and kept going. they moved forward and believed that it would get better. there are ups, there are downs, and there are moments when even life itself is telling you to just give up, that its not worth it, that you should just stop. but you should never stop. you should keep going. whether youre stuck in the hotel or traversing the blazing hot desert, searching the shelves for anything you may find useful or placing your torch down at the cut in the bridge, you are in the backrooms. you are in life. it will be rough, it will be tough, and it will throw every stick, stone, and broken bone at you to try and make you break. to try and knock that torch out of your hands, but no. hold the torch tighter, because there is an end. there is always a good ending, for everyone. you just have to persevere long enough to see it.
Man… I hate to break this to you, but he’s dead. He never made it out. Well, technically he did but… yeah
@@manofmanywords2375 i think in that case (someone gives up at the bridge) the rest of the backrooms is trying to find peace after death
Well said
Nothing was ever confirmed. But that what make his channel good, isn’t it?
Beautifully said!
Love the niche brand of weird internet horror you're working with, it's really interesting and creative. Keep it up, always love to see you uploading!

I thought it was gonna fade out and say thanks for watching, but when it transitioned to the torch placed on the edge of the bridge, my jaw actually dropped.
Its like little misfortune, but... Sadder
my theory is that garfilled wasn't able to escape the backrooms, he actually failed his jump on the level "the bridge" (or maybe he wasn't able to stop the voices), that's why the bridge appears at the end.
ohh actually it can be like that
Yea maybe thats why its REDACTED
Am i the only person that noticed the many black figures in the videos? The first one is at 1:55 on the left side of the screen. It then appears behind him. If you miss the first hidden one there is one at 2:57 on the far right down the hallway.
Here is a list of other sightings I found:
10:50 black figure in the far distance, although you are probably supposed to see this one. It also appears ahead.
12:14 figure barely in view in the center of the screen
12:46 same as above
19:22 middle left
Also all the capital letters in the books spell HELL RRR I AM YOU
If I missed anything please tell me.
I saw the first one and was scrolling the comments about it
Nope your not the bonely one you saw this
Alright, the seemingly random caps on the books' text actually spells something, here they are in order:
(2:11 - 2:39) Caps spell "HELL"
(14:23 - 14:45) Caps spell "RRR" (?)
(16:38 - 17:08) Caps spell "I AM YOU"
These are pretty interesting easter eggs for the people like me that have a lot of free time. Although, the second book's caps are kinda puzzling... I wonder what the hell the "RRR" is about...
Maybe RRR is for RRRedacted?? A little bit of a stretch, but
@@idekimbored Maybe it’s “turn right three times.” I doubt it would be that supportive of the player but still…

I agree with all of the theory comments saying he jumped into the void, but I also want to point out that at 7:42 Garf says "The only option was to keep moving forward, or succumb to the cold, and so I did." Garf here never specified, so when you first watch this video, you mostly likely assume "and so I did" meant he kept moving forward, but after watching the video, you know he "did", he succumbed to the cold.
He did wait an absurd amount of time
In every book, there were capital letters scattered around in the sentences. Putting them all together, it forms 'HELLRRRIAMYOU.' As of now, this phrase does not have any meaning, But if you are planning to continue this series, I suggest you give a meaning to this, or maybe even create more of these odd patterns for us to decipher. Looking forward to the next video!
could be a anagram; "I AM YOUR HELL"

yes it's because I'm valuable, thank you for reminding me
Honestly I would love to see Matt Pat to do an episode on this series, it's incredibly interesting and well put together. Good job man, you did amazing
I know right! That's what I thought too when I started watching his videos
His videos are perfect for a theory!
matpat* :troll:
I would love that
Actually he has done backrooms videos
It’s on his other channel called Film Theory
Cool video! Also wanna say thanks for list of music used in this video. It's really good that you put it in the description. Some youtubers don't do that and makes me sad.
ok, so i have a theory.
i think garfilled might be stuck in a cycle that he can actually change for his future self, he must have realized this sometime in between the dead servers video and now.
the garf we see at the end is not the garf we were on the adventures with.
neither are the original garf that entered the backrooms.
the garf in the manhunt video is not the original garf. the original garf was only seen in the first video on the channel.
when garf jumps down the pit the cycle resets. the garf at the end may be the final garf, the one to end the cycle.
the server garf must be the one to write the books, or at least some of them due to him being the only one so far to realize that he wasn't the first.
the one time he understood (sort of) is the servers video.
this garf either aint the reacted smp garf or this takes place before redacted smp
oh god this theory actually makes sense because often in the videos he finds signs that say "garfilled was here"
Another thing that supports this is that if you take all of the capital letters in the second book, you get I am you
Garfenberg
Such a cool video! Epic stuff gg!
I was wondering if the song "Buddy Stuart - In the valley of the sun" is copyrighted? Because its a great track and I would love to use it in one of my videos!
it's been a year and a half, i hope you enjoyed making this content as much as we enjoyed consuming it! thanks Garfilled, keep up the good work
He probably had hallucinations or delusions after staying too long in the constant loop of the backrooms. It led to a cliff edge that seemingly looked like the end, but ultimately fell into his own sanity and jumped off the bridge (Thus the torch placement).
i love this lore with the backrooms and [REDACTED] SMP and cant wait to see more of the lore and the huge plot twists!!!:)
What I think happened is that once the exit led back to level zero, he went back to the bridge and jumped. He only imagined himself escaping. The notes and figures he encountered was only himself subconsciously knowing he would never leave.
[SPOILERS]
That made it seem like he escaped but I don't think so.
The sudden, seemly random cut back to that bridge hole makes me think that he didn't escape, he wasn't more powerful, he succumbed to the void and imagined escaping probably on the second time across the bridge...
Maybe your right just maybe
Maybe he fail the first time
Just maybe
or maybe the one that escaped as in a alternate universe/ paralel universe and the OG one fell in the void when he jumped
@@mystery_e1753 yah
@@mystery_e1753 he can easily break the walls I’ve done it if you go far enough up the roof you make it to some place
Fun fact : In the official Backrooms wiki, Level 9999 is an amusement park called "Karmaland Amusement Park" which is a typical amusement park surrounded by ocean. If you take the roller coasters you will end up on different level depending on your karma (Which is some sort of rate telling how good or bad of a person you are depending on your actions) and if you have good enough karma you have a chance to actually escape the Backrooms.
This level is one of the levels often argued to be "the last level of the Backrooms" like level 3999 and of course level 9223372036854775807.
as always, another garfilled banger

Very funi
Funy :3
I love your work man! The editing is so good! I don’t ever watch Minecraft videos anymore because I’m not a kid anymore, but when you upload, I click immediately.
This video is absolutely amazing. The cinematography. The music. The bits of humor. The tiniest bit of unsettlement. The plot. It’s all so amazing. It felt like a movie and I was locked in from when I first put it on, to when I finished it.
I really hope he escaped, possibly the torch being at the bridge could represent him passing his biggest challenge... but we all know the torch means that that was the last place Garfilled was, I'm just hoping I'm wrong
This was incredible. I found you after a rec from a super small yt channel called zii, amd thought id give it a look. Absolutely worth it this was absolutely AMAZING. The effort, the story, the visuals, the music, all combined for a beautiful work of art. I got chills in the last minute. So obsessed.
This was honestly great and nostalgic a bit too. I love the music in these as well as the sound effects
I remember watching this particular video when I had limited access to screens in general in a period during Winter Break. It was incredibly enjoyable and thanks for that.
A video again about backrooms, with the same music, same aesthetic, but so much more effort and feeling put into it, i love your content :)
this and the first backroom video that you've made give me chills down my spine lol i wouldn't thought that a blocky game will disturb me.
Important message this gave me was never give up. You will be free even if being free means death. Keep going. You will reach it
Even though I can not get my head around the lore of this channel. This is the second Minecraft video to make me genuinely feel for the character. It’s produced so perfectly with just a silly idea of a guy escaping a never ending plain to now a cinematic masterpiece of mystery is amazing and takes pure skill. Keep it up mate
Theory: He fell into the void from the bridge and ended up in the hall way passed out BUT when he woke up he opened a whole new thing where he was separated into two people one his himself the other. The harbinger
in level 2000, the uppercase letters in the book state "IAMYOU", perhaps this could mean the person following him was him but in the future, because of all the times he didnt escape, and went back to the same level, but who knows he could have just died on the bridge jump
For those who thought the caps in the book at 2:11 were random, if spelled together it spells 'hell'.
This is amazing!! Such an entertaining and well done video, it's really really cool. Congrats!
Wow I saw this video and thought the pictures in the thumbnail looked familiar ... it was weird to see my first map in here. It actually gave me motivation to work on my current wip map. This was a pretty good video man! Keep up the good work! :)
I've noticed in the books, the caps give messages. "HELL" In the Hub, "RRR" in the Hotel, which doesn't make sense? And in the End it reads "IAMYOU" which in itself is bone chilling, what does it mean when it says I AM YOU? Is the backrooms just a manifestation of Garfilled's mental instability? Is the monster a part of him, as in his inner demons? I have so many questions.
Moment of silence for Garfilled, he never escaped the backrooms.
Also the last part got me emotional
The fact that the void showed up so often (even the only shot at the end of the video) implies that there is more in the depths of the void.
This is pure determination 19:06
Refusing to give up fills you with determination
level 0 book with capitals reads out HELL and hotel reads out RRR idk what RRR means (maybe an acryonm) The end book reads out IAMYOU (with spaces it is I AM YOU) maybe he is stuck in a loop i havent watched it all yet so (now i have) anyways great video keep up the good work!
the inevitability of the backrooms vs the indominable -human- cat spirit
This is truly incredible. The storyline is amazing!
I love the attention to detail!
For example, how the capitals in the 1st book spell out “hell”
The ones in the third also spell iamyou or just i am you with spaces.
The second one is strange with rrr but it could mean anything.
@@flamenailed it could mean "readacted" or smth
@@Thom_Flute maybe the backrooms recycles old memories for the "human" that is trapped down there to make them feel welcome and the backrooms dream-like but it is where they're suppose to be, like their reality?
20:25 this is exactly what it felt like coming out of what happened to me in 2023... 16 months of torture. That feeling never goes away ...
Btw for me the torch on the bridge symbolizes your footprint in the backrooms. Like your light will forever be solidified in that darkness. Kinda beautiful tbh.
Anyone else notice the capitalized words in the books? I looked over it again and noticed this: hellrrriamyou
Not sure what the "Hellrrr" part is, but the "Iamyou" makes perfect sense to me. This lore is so intriguing!
idk what the rrr is for but i guess hell could be talking about the backrooms or something
I did a little digging ie I just went to the urban dictionary and rrr seems to mean real realize real
I think it is I AM YOUR HELL
@@humanbeing4321 that's weird who is righting those books
@@humanbeing4321 Ooh! that would make sense
i think there is something to the books he reads in the story. each book has "randomly" placed uppercase letters with the first book spelling out "HELL", the second books seems to say "RRR" (dont ask me what that means) and the third book saying "I AM YOU" i find the torch theory to be a good one but i feel the books have something deeper to it, such as the number of pages or what page the texts are on. i was thinking that maybe you could combine all the text pages together and make one big message but some of the text would seem to overlap eachother. I feel like im missing something about the second book, "enjoy your stay"
I see somethingin the middle of the screen at 21:02 am i the only one?
Edit: Also the last book says I AM YOU so what if another Garfeild did jump into the void at the bridge and thats why the level was mad at him we see a tourch on the bridge at the end and Garfeild placed his tourch down when hiss journy was over so maybe and alternate version of himself gave up. Sorry love these lore videos!
I didn't notice it at first but there is text there, I think it says "the air feels colder here" from what I can see, which i think gives further credence to the idea that he jumped into the void
The middle of the screen showed the air feels colder here
Honestly you have great story telling and its been great to see you expand apon it.
This mod was just waiting for a story to be told about it, and Garfield came and told it, and did so excellently.
Garfilled*
Tbh I think the tor h symbolizes how his journey could have ended at the bridge, but instead he persisted. Tho tho likely has a dual meaning.😊
"Its literally a desert" made me laugh for some reason.
the level "literally a desert" makes sense tho bc he is in a desert.
16:38 the capital letters spell IAMYOU
never thought Minecraft and a Garfield skin could be so creepy and unnerving but I gotta give you credit this is really well shot and edited I really enjoyed it man just like your other backrooms video
Even if you escape the Backrooms, you’ll never escape the trauma from being there
So here’s what I gathered from what the levels are (or are inspired by)
1. Level 0:
Basically just the level 0 from the original backrooms lore, mixed with some Cain Pixels and his own original twist much less yellow than the original.
2. The second level is DEFINITELY based on The Poolrooms, a more obscure level on the backrooms wiki.
3. The third level is something original. I don’t think there’s a snowy bridge level on the backooms wiki.
4. There’s a bunch of deserts in the back rooms, but this one is Level 440, that’s literally the name. Though it wasn’t actually JUST a desert. It was originally a forest which turned into a desert later on.
Also you usually start in the level dying from dehydration.
5. The next one is Level 5 (obviously). This is one of the more visited levels in the original backrooms. Though, Level 5 is usually much more expansive, and there weren’t signs of snow in the original either.
6. Level The End
An enigmatic level. One of the most famous levels in the backrooms. There’s no entities, and the computer can lead you basically anywhere IN the backrooms, it just can’t let you out.
7. Level 9999
This isn’t actually what Level 9999 is, the original level is “Karmaland Amusment Park”
Though this seems as if it’s for the sake of the video.
Level 3 is not custom. Its in the backrooms wiki. Search it up
Clues:
1st Book spell "HELL" in capital letters. Maybe a nod to how the backrooms are essentially hell.
2nd Book spelled "RRR". Maybe a nod to [REDACTED] SMP, since their logo is a simple .
3rd Book spelled "I AM YOU", which can hint to a possible SECOND Garfilled, who's looking to make the life of OUR Garfilled a living hell.
18:03 *internal screaming*
Level 440 to Garfilled: be careful what you ask for
The sound design for this is amazing! Great work!
bravo dude and with the twist at the end where he actually jumped into the void off the bridge is just amazing this was cool
A happy ending for a cheerful cat, that never gave up and succeeded at the end
This was cool! Thanks for providing the download to the map and stuff in thr desc! I can't wait to play it.
Ah yes A perfectly normal day to see a blocky version of Garfield enter the background of infinite ruse of no return.
this is such a fun video exploring the back rooms concept! very well done dude!!
Great video as always Garfilled !
14:24 the capital letters spell RRR
Writing this as I watch the video-
Capital Letters in "the walls." spell: HELL
Self explanatory. This place is hell.
Capital Leters in "enjoy your stay" spell: RRR
Which from what I can tell, means nothing.
Capital Letters in "the end." spell: IAMYOU
Put spaces in-between, and you come up with "I AM YOU." Is this future him trying to warn him? Is there some kind of loop at play here? Or is it just the backrooms or a different entity trying to mess with him? Who knows.
No matter what, it seemed that he finally got his escape in the end :)
You should definitely make this as a film with the same story
line, I am sure it will be a big success.
The music really hit me hard at 19:13 to 19:57.
If you feeling down this will motivate you for sure.
This just shows that no matter how or difficult certain things many be in your journey,keep trying and it will pay off.
FINALLY YES, A NEW BACKROOMS VID!
new upload yess🎉
Wow, I don’t know how I didn’t watch this sooner but I’m glad I watched it! I don’t think anyone has truly captured the horror of the backrooms as well as you have. Truly, this is spectacular. Can’t wait to see more of this ART, and have a great January all!
i think part of the reason the backrooms cannot be escaped from is that the backrooms is not a place but rather a "state of being" i sometimes question whether even death can be considered an escape from the backrooms as the backrooms seems to fundimentally alter what it means to exist
fun fact you guys maybe didn't notice, at 2:12, the capitalized letters in each sentence individually put together spell out "HELL"
yup
in the next book was RRR but Idk what that means
It also spelled the next one IAMO
instead of jumping the gap in the bridge, you could have gathered snowballs to make snow blocks so you could build over.
Some people think that he found a way out and others think that he's still wandering the backrooms , but only time will tell.
Just because there's no end to the Backrooms doesn't mean you can't canonically escape in multiple ways on multiple floors. Which one is correct is still unknown. Escape is very unlikely, but still possible.
I like to think that he did escape, and the torch simply signifies the biggest challenge he faced. Putting the past behind him, if you will.
Going forwards from the backrooms. A guiding light to others trapped, perhaps.
Perhaps that's what the torch on the bridge is.
I always once in a while watch this again, and i am happy i do, it always gives me a different perspective on it, as i grow older, so does the video.
18:08 I kinda wished he would just scream and the video would end
this just goes to show that the backrooms are so horrifying that even if you take a mostly kids game and add backrooms elements to it, even it can be horrifying
Give some credit to the torch for surviving this and guiding him
garfilled if you just didn't mess with the fabric of reality none of this would have happened
how to escape the backrooms:
1) bring 2 ender pearls
I'm confused
@@void_games5283 me to
The void :
@@void_games5283 My guess is that its a reference to the Nether roof Pearl clip.
"E.L.L.R.R.R.I.A.M.Y.O."
-every capital letter in the books.
So did the water hole at 5:12 actually go anywhere? I kinda wondered if you had faced death and kept going if you would’ve made it completely out.
