You know that would make a good episode on the twilight show. A person who just stands there and people start to question, only to find out he's some spy cam for aliens.
If club penguin is this unhinged I could only imagine the reactions of humanity trying to make sense of a human who doesn't move blink breath talk or eat but somehow manages to appear in different places without explanation
The thing about “alien technology” though if we go there, is that it would likely be so advanced that the camera itself could convincingly pass as a human, even posses human level intelligence perhaps. Maybe that explains all the [insert political party you oppose here]s
In a way it's kinda sweet that the community is so determined to be inclusive that a person who refuses to participate is seen as hostile and suspicious. I wouldn't even notice him tbh
From another perspective, it's super creepy and cursed. Dude could just be AFK or something and they're gradually just getting their torches and pitchforks ready. Dude's doing nothing to anyone but gets treated like a threat just for existing. It's ironically super intolerant for a community trying to be inclusive.

@@MyNaymIsSnek1526do keep in mind there’s private server things of the game like club penguin rewritten and probably several others that allow players to keep the penguin world alive ! The original game may be gone, but they technically still persist !
The psychotic energy radiating from Normal Bird is insane, it was hilarious seeing how everyone interacts with them I never got to play Club Penguin when it was still possible to, what was it like?
Honestly this is basically what it was like. There were also a ton of mini games and events though, and the theater had plays where you could interact with the stage. The minigames gave you coins so you could get clothes and decorate your own igloo ("iggy"). There were memberships so you could be able to buy more nice items (I played for I think 8-9 years so it was worth the $5 or so a month for some of that time as someone who loved the game) and a lot of it was making experiences talking to people or role-playing with them. Like making up families or serving pizza or coffee. Buying the pets which were balls of fluff called puffles. Later on there was a series of ninja themed card minigames too and you could level up your belt to black belt and unlock each belt and some cool stuff. Really good game. You might be able to find some copies people put up if you look for "club penguin private servers" or CPPS 's. The main most popular one, Club Penguin Rewritten, got shut down for having ads and making money off the copyright though (it sucks cause it was pretty much just like the golden era of the original), but I think there are still some other ones people have made out there. Or make your own if someone has the source code for the game shared. I believe it was open source when the original was made. Anyway yeah :) hope that gives some of an idea what it was like. There are also tons of old videos of people playing up too.
At some point the original gave the puffles stats and favorite minigames too, so you could take care of them and also bring them along to their favorite game for extra coins. The main game people would play nonstop for quick coins was called "Cart Surfer" and it was this fun one down in the mines where you have to do as many tricks as you can while safely turning each corner and dodging things so you could get the most points. Eventually they brought in this thing called a stamp book where you could collect the mail style stamps (basically Achievements) for each game to unlock double coun reward for that game, as well as for other interactions around the island, like giving a tour or having an igloo party with x amount of people in your igloo at one time, just for the fun of achievements.
My penguin was in here dude when I tell u we have been talking about what Normal bird could be for so long🤣 this was not on the list You can still play on newer versions of the game cpl or cpj are the best imo. I think most of this video was from cpl club penguin is very fun and interactive
I understand that this video was just for April Fool's, but I hope you do more of these weird, two minute one off videos. It'll keep your channel alive and add just a little bit more content for the end of the year compilation video...or you could just do more of those movie reviews that you made for a little bit. Either way, I'm here for it. Bless you, Bale.👍(Edit: NOOO, I EDITED THE COMMENT AND LOST ALEX'S HEART, WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN TO ME?!)

I kept saying "buddies" because that's all you said to me once so I said it every time I saw you just standing there. Nice to come across this video and see what you were up to because I was definitely confused seeing "Normal Bird" everyday just standing in random rooms haha.
No it was fucking amazing dude. I miss it so bad. This is just as bad as me forgetting my webkinz login and the company refuses to tell me my password 😭 I had over 40 pets and spent DAYS on that game

if it looks like a normal bird, sounds like a normal bird, and smells like a normal bird, it must be a normal bird...

As we observe the penguin in its natural habitat, one question remains. What lies within the thoughts of these creatures?
Fish
I loved this! Do you think there’s any potential for a ToonTown rewritten video?
Best april fools prank ever, Alex didn’t make a theory on club penguin
So, are we getting a Club Penguin Theory in the future?

I miss these days man had a great laugh thank you
he's back at it again...
One of my favorite videos on the internet.
This perfectly captures how chaotic club penguin is.
The sound effects used for the video are so good, they just elevate the videos quality even further.
OH MY GOD I LOVE CLUB PENGUIN (sorry, I instinctively screamed with joy)
This makes me miss Club Penguin bc it was the best online game on the World Wide Web :(

This is that one video that is supposed to go to the extras channel, yet here it is.
Club penguin was my childhood! Great to see this back for a day!
10/10 best documentary about penguins 🐧 👏👏👏
I like this April Fools video better than last years. That one was… disturbing 😂. I miss Club Penguin ❤
Its so crazy that i recognize multiple people from here
That last bit was hilarious and the spongebob walking sfx is the cherry on top
The Slenderman sound effect sold me on this doc
I really hope you make more of these, this was great!
this is some new content! you realy were not kidding...
this is delightful. everyone getting scared and teaming up on the poor camera penguin cracked me tf up
ngl I want an 1-hour version of this just to watch during meal
