Fun story: I woke up last week at 1 AM with burning abdominal pain. I tried to wait it out, and put this stream log on to distract myself. Ultimately, same-day surgery was required (I'm fine lmao) and after I was discharged, I came home to find my laptop tabs open to the rapid escalation of: 1) DK Nightmare Stream 2) a panicked google search of "help my tummy hurts wat do" 3) searches for the nearest medical facility. Truly, one's browser history can weave a rich and compelling tale.
Same here, I'm rewatching the entirety of this for the second time now and looking back it's kind of adorable how small Harry thought the stream would turn out to be :D
As a young child, I refused to collect Golden Bananas that were in cages because I was convinced the cages would close on me, capturing that particular kong I was playing, meaning I would have to unlock them again.
I was there as a mod and I really thought things would calm down within a bit... both viewers and donates. (I was obviously, massively wrong), but that was the general take at the time..
I was there for the stream as a sad trans girl who was too young to get on HRT and now I'm doing a rewatch on HRT and slightly less sad trans girl :). Hbomb you really made a difference with this stream, you made a sad lonely trans girl feel less alone.
Wait, who? I keep googleing that name but I get 0 results. Perhaps it's someone who was Thanos snapped out of existence because of $10k worth of donations or something like that, I don't know
Can't wait for 10 years from now when the director's cut bluray comes out with live commentary from hbomb, Casey, AOC, Left at London, Grant Kirkhope, and others.
I hadn't heard of you or anything to do with this when it was happening, but I'm now really grateful that you did it. I just started hrt today and part of me is really scared of the future, but it's reassuring to know you and so many people that donated are supportive of my right to exist. Thank you.
This stream is one of the things that helped me start transitioning. Proof positive that there were people out there who wouldn't hate me if I did, something my anxious ass very much needed. Rewatching it now years later and I'm not sure I ever said thank you for that. So thanks.
When I was a little girl, I had one nightmare about Donkey Kong and kind of hated him for a while. (I overreact a lot, and this was one of the times; it lasted FIVE YEARS.) Then 5 years ago I warmed up to him and he became one of my favorite characters. Now that I'm becoming an adult, I'm watching this stream as sort of a rite of passage into my manhood.
Unfortunate that the chat is not on-screen so we don't get to see the massive number of times "TRANS RIGHTS" was spammed in chat. Maybe a thing to be fixed for the next nightmare stream ;)
Commenting the time code 17:31 because that's when my donation flashes up and I'm still proud I got acknowledgement for my lame Night In The Woods Video joke
Okay but hbomb saying that Ollie's kindness made him believe that someone as kind as JESUS could've existed... Like is that not the most profound and wholesome friendship feel I've ever heard... That's how my friends make me feel too man 😭
Shout out to BAD_LUCK who donated increasing amounts of money every time Hbomb failed the beetle race to the tune of $42 fucking dollars (luckily only 6 paid attempts lol).
I didn't catch this stream when it was originally airing but I just wanted to say thank you. The issues raised later on in this stream aren't really stuff I'd thought about before and watching through it was a really incredible experience, even setting aside the huge amounts of money raised for a really good cause and eve ignoring the fact I hit a kind of exhausted haze midway through and spent hours trying to work out which Kong would correspond to which Avenger (I maintain that Tiny is the world's greatest Pym particle user and it's only partially because Simi-ant is a fantastic name).I won't say that you should keep up this sort of work (dear God you'd die doing this all the time) but this whole stream is absolutely incredible.
Simi-ant is an excellent name; well done. I'm really glad that you were open to learning from this stream! To me (a Trans dude), seeing someone say they really listened to Trans voices and thought about the issues raised means a lot. We need more folks willing to listen, and also make great DK/Marvel puns.
When I have more time on my hands, I will watch all of this. The whole thing, no speedup. No skipping ahead of boring parts. I might leave it on in the background while doing something else, but probably not. I have decided that I want to witness just what this man put himself through for some reason. 58 hours of Donkey Kong sounds absolutely daunting.
this stream will probably remembered as the start of really fucking strong online activism towards trans rights, and a moment where every trans person came together to unite
36:05 "I wonder if who will be watching after the fact on a channel somewhere I wonder what context it'll be in?" This non-binary trans person is watch this stream for the first time an sees it in the context of a trans ally setting up a goal to do right by trans people while pissing off a famous Terf and in the process help create, what I consider, an important moment in trans history.
You asked what the context of someone watching this in future was. I'm watching this after watching your XOXO speech on this very stream and being a fan of you and your brand of comedy. It also happens I'm a struggling trans person. Thank you for this my friend.
Tiny Kong slide race: "This is literally impossible, humans made this to torture other humans" *uses his human brain to do a pattern recognition and beats it in several tries*
The early part of the stream was pretty special not gonna lie. I've already watched up to about the 20 hour mark after the fact, and I saw bits and pieces from the entire thing live. Looking forward to seeing more of this later.
After seeing his presentation on xoxo on this stream and it moving me to tears I am here to absolutely fail at binging this but I shall spend the next week(s) slowly watching all of this
This is amazing and I've never been able to focus on something for five and a half hours straight before. Bless you for this stream honestly. I couldn't watch it live but I kept up with what was going on and I cried when I realized how much money this stream raised for mermaids and how wholesome the whole thing was.
This is weirdly one of the best things I've found to force myself to be productive. Because even when I'm doing something I don't want to I know Hbomb is suffering with me
Harris: I get to show off my platforming skills! Also Harris: *fails the two simple jumps to get up the coal pile for the next several minutes straight*
The first part of the stream was the best. More relaxed. Actually enjoying watching the game and making money for trans kids. Never forget what you did for the trans community. We are all grateful.
So this livestream happened when I was in the final stages of being an egg. I was incredibly sad and incredibly avoidant of anything that had to do with confronting my gender. I avoided this livestream and any and all trans related content. I have been socially transitioning for the better part of a year at this point and I'm going to binge watch this entire stream.
I'm so glad I found this just now. I've been meaning to watch this whole thing but couldn't be bothered to watch it all on Twitch because I'm still kind of crap at using Twitch and the video was so massive and unwieldy and wouldn't save my spot if I had to take a break or whatever. Idk. Also I'm sick to the point of not being able to do shit and I need entertainment.

I guess appendicitis? i also had that recently. lt was not fun, even with same-day surgery.
got to the part where hbomb says "I wonder what context people will be watching this in the future" and laughed. Oh honey, you got a big storm coming
Same here, I'm rewatching the entirety of this for the second time now and looking back it's kind of adorable how small Harry thought the stream would turn out to be :D
2020 intensifies
*Snap with a step of the right foot*
The context for me: i realised i was trans while watching this stream
Congrats! 🥰
He started the stream literally naked looking for clothes.
This really is a legendary stream.
Oh man. Wonder if the 500 pound donation goal will be reached!
I know, I'm on the edge of my seat.
The best part is Hbomb’s genuine surprise at it’s steady climb.
Most intense 3 minutes of my life.
HEY FUCKIN SPOILERS YOU DICKS
*chuckles in time travelling space demon*
Naked out of the shower and the lens cap is on, who'd imagine such a promising start to phenomenal event
Yeah it's amazing the donations recovered after that initial disappointing tease.
A POX ON THAT LENSE CAP
I can't wait relive the time I stayed up for 40 hours straight, and f r e e d m y s k i n .
Hi hi guys
As a young child, I refused to collect Golden Bananas that were in cages because I was convinced the cages would close on me, capturing that particular kong I was playing, meaning I would have to unlock them again.
That actually sounds kinda cool.
Thanks, Karl. Loved your book. Big fan.
18:48 "When we get twelve hours in there won't be as many donates"
- Nostradamus probably
I was there as a mod and I really thought things would calm down within a bit... both viewers and donates. (I was obviously, massively wrong), but that was the general take at the time..
Like, best bad prophecy ever.
" this will take about 38 hours, rough estimate "
60 hours later lamo
The fact that he reached three times his initial goal before he even started playing is hilarious.
I was there for the stream as a sad trans girl who was too young to get on HRT and now I'm doing a rewatch on HRT and slightly less sad trans girl :). Hbomb you really made a difference with this stream, you made a sad lonely trans girl feel less alone.
Hope your transition goes well
💜🏳⚧
I hope the transformation goes well
Much love, enjoy the skittles💙💟🥳💙💟🥳
Godspeed, sister. Happy for you.
"When we get 12 hours in, there won't be as many donations"
you couldn't have been more wrong
This stream will be mentioned in history books. #ThanksGraham
who?
draxil42 Graham Lineham, the guy that inspired this stream.
Thanks Sobek
Wait, who? I keep googleing that name but I get 0 results. Perhaps it's someone who was Thanos snapped out of existence because of $10k worth of donations or something like that, I don't know
3 years late, but he was a slightly popular irish comedian who tried to do some stuff to mess up Mermaids (the charity this stream was for)

Bah!
I got a PragerU ad on this video that tried to make AOC look like an idiot who doesn't understand capitalism...why is youtube like this?
The last dying gasp of conservatism before 5 glorious hours of Dong
Because RUclips exists in capitalism and benefits from it?
I got a PragerU ad too, lord. Hbomb please give us a PragerU video
I mean prageru gave money to hbomberguy if you watched it so that sounds like a win to me
Trebor if you use an ad-blocker you’re basically stealing soy from his savouring mouth
Can't wait for 10 years from now when the director's cut bluray comes out with live commentary from hbomb, Casey, AOC, Left at London, Grant Kirkhope, and others.
watching this in 2023 and hearing hbomb say "thank you destiny" did at least 4d6 sneak attack damage to me.
I hadn't heard of you or anything to do with this when it was happening, but I'm now really grateful that you did it. I just started hrt today and part of me is really scared of the future, but it's reassuring to know you and so many people that donated are supportive of my right to exist. Thank you.

Every once in a while I return to this stream when I need a reminder that there's good in the world :) Thanks H Bomb
It is so good to watch him go "I wanted to set this to 1000$ but it is already gone" if you only knew
35:00 "That will solve itself" With hindsight, this is hilarious.
The early part of the stream was pretty special not gonna lie. I've already watched up to about the 20 hour mark after the fact, and I saw bits and pieces from the entire thing live. Looking forward to seeing more of this later.
The constant notification noise for subscriptions really sets the tone for this entire stream.
Who's this "Graham Lineham" guy? You keep talking about him but I can't find any evidence that he actually exists.
That's because the only part of history he wasn't erased from was this stream
We took his family.
We took his family.
Remember when this was supposed to be 25 hours long?
I really enjoy that his original goal was beaten before he had even set up the stream properly
It's big dysphoria time, you know what that means, time for wholesome stream
