7 Terrible Hiding Places You Somehow Got Away With

The "hiding above someone" tactic is actually pretty realistic, because people tend to not look up when searching for things and prefer looking at eyesight level. That's why supermarkets put the most expensive stuff right at the hight of your head and the cheapest things at the bottom. Also: after seeing a SWAT-Team getting tricked out by a runnaway that put a thing over his head and stood still in a corner of a room, these hiding strategies are not too unrealustic anymore...

[@ChishioAme]

Wanted to say the same thing; unless you know the thing you're looking for has a tendency to climb things, people really don't look up all that often and even then, it's more of a conscious thing. I mean, in a brightly lit day, with a person standing tall and proud, skylining themselves, yeah, you _might_ see them even if you're not looking for them, but in a dark and foggy night when they're crouching and _actively_ trying to avoid being seen? Yeah, not really happening.

[@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi]

i heard about an officer in the Israeli army who, to prove a point that the trainees didn't check corners when breaching, stood in one during a live ammunition drill. They shat themselves when he got out of the building when it was done.

[@dustwarewolf5532]

People all too often make fun of stealth in video games for being unrealistic, and while this is sometimes true such as in Skyrim, the being above eye level thing you just mentioned really does work, ninjas having done that for centuries. It actually becomes less effective however, the farther away from the seeker you are, as the farther away they are, the more high up they are able to see without looking up by more than a 45 degree angle.

[@johnsamer98]

ninjas actually did walk along roofs to move about unnoticed. buildings were lit from inside and unless you were above the kitchen there was no way of light reaching the rooftops especially since the roof overlaps the walls in old japanese buildings making the light shine across rather than up. they didn't have lamp posts either in ancient japan so as long as you didn't draw the attention of a person with a lantern you could sneak around unnoticed. victorian thieves used to pull a clever trick where if they were being chased they would run into a room with an adjoining door and hide in the closet. the pursuer would assume they ran into the adjoining and follow. at that moment the thief would burst out of the closet and run out of the door giving them a head start in the chase. obviously after adjoining rooms went out of fashion so did this trick as it's very obvious where somebody went when there's literally no where else they could have gone. in world war 2 british soldiers escaping nazi prison camps would hide in piles of manure that were being transported from farm to farm by allied members of the french resistance. turns out that nazi privates were reluctant to search the manure even if they suspected a person might be hiding in it because of how gross it is. this method actually fooled the nazies for quite some time until a superior officer did the smart thing and picked up a pitch fork which is what would have been used to shovel the manure and started stabbing at the manure. this resulted in the deaths of several escapees via deadly infection. several small, flexible and underweight prisoners have escaped via air ducts to this date but a lot lot lot more have tried to do so and died in the process. restrictions of movement have lead to suffocation, some have climbed through unused parts of the facility and got stuck and died of thirst, some have severed arteries on mechanical fans and bled to death, one man climbed into a chimney by mistake and was choked by noxious gases but most have met a grizzly end when shafts went vertical and they slipped and fell several stories to a sudden stop. it certain not a good method of travel. so all these sneaking methods have some sort of truth to them. however the game developers might have used them out of context in completely unrealistic situations and the audience isn't stupid enough not to notice.

You just didn't hide in lockers enough for it to decide it should be checking lockers now.

To be fair, I got spotted on the Dishonored rooftops plenty of times even while being silent. It only works on the guards right below you.

The walking with people made sense in the first one when it was set to specific people in white robes similar to Altair's robes but the blending after that, apart from possibly the courtesans as guards would probably be spending more time looking at them than the Assassin; didn't make much sense.

[@WhiteFangofWar]

Now to be fair, once the thugs in Arkham City know you're around, they DO check the floor vents and shoot you if they see you there. Tall grass, though... That's like the infinite space of hiding spots. A Pokemon the size of a house can hide in there perfectly, and Snake makes good use of it too.

I remember a side quest in Dying Light, where you got to make sure a path is safe for a survivor, and take out the volitile nest you'd eventually find in it. While going through the tunnel, you might try to avoid contact with the defending volitiles, rather than attacking them, so you can LITERALLY hide behind the side of a barrel near a doorway, and at times, a volitile would walk past you, as if you were invisible.

This reminds me of the one time I was playing Alien Isolation. On mission 5 I made the mistake of unlocking both doors in a room that had no hiding spots.... per-sey.

How about just raw skill in the fallout series? I'm cranking out the greatest pre-war hits from my pip boy, mere inches from a raider and they're all, 'did you hear something?' to their equally unaware buddy who should be able to see me.

[@lumen8341]

Jet is a hell of a drug

[@WildfireMagni]

I thought Jet was supposed to increase your awareness.

[@torinsmith9867]

Earbuds?

[@WildfireMagni]

I'm not sure they even have regular earphones, let alone earbuds.

[@keanunmoskaluk3518]

They’re dumber than a fire ant or those big my experiments!

[@dragonmaster613]

Your entry for Dishonored is a real-life stealth move. It relies on a phenomenon that very few people look beyond a 45° angle. It was popularized by Ninjas as a Jitsu. Batman was trained as a Ninja. The "zombies" in Evil Within Aren't real! (It was all in his head)

[@schlegs86]

Hahaha!! Luke was brilliant in this one!! Also Ellen's joke was GREAT!! ("BOO, boooooo")

[@cathalkanaly5440]

I love the line they said "supercalaf*** you all" best quote I have heard this year

[@namikkou]

Yes. Yes it was.

[@TrailRat2000]

Supercali-gof**kyourself is now my new go to swear word.

[@frodoman8754]

NightSprite same

[@justinjacobs1501]

same

[@json.]

The haystacks were pretty bad, but what about the times in Black Flag when you would hide in fields on plantations that just had single stalks spaced a couple feet apart? "Don't mind me. Just another plant here. Also, ignore that dead guy over there too. He's just a plant."

[@jetomance5961]

OMG - can we please please please get a best of Ellen? The "WEEEE" at 6:30 just killed me xDDD

[@TrickyTalon23]

Dude how are they going to expect a random barrel to hide the hero inside? Sure it moves places but who’s going to pay attention that it could be the same barrel and not just a different one?

[@earlgrey197]

Speaking of boxes, in TF2 there's a taunt that the spy* can use to Cover themselves in a box. This works more often than it should.

[@JaneXemylixa]

Yeah! Maybe because in such a fast-paced game people just filter out immobile objects, even those that weren't there five seconds ago?

[@Chris_Sizemore]

The AI in TF2 is just horrible and inconsistent. Half of them act like complete noobs while the other half are on god mode. Its almost like you're playing against real people.

[@totallynotapuffball9119]

No, because the ones on the other team are always the gods. Also, the box just doesn't work on them. :(

[@totallynotapuffball9119]

It's because they either have a sense of honor and refuse to kill friendlies, or are too stupid and immature to notice.

[@Pluvita]

"that the sound" GABE'S FAVOURITE CHARACTER IS THE SOUND, GUYS!

[@r0be077]

Skyrim: crouched right in front of the enemy.

[@bobby2055]

r0bE0 yup, with sneak high enough, you can literally disappear in front of their eyes.

[@yourschosen5868]

Ellen: “...I’ll Bale! 😉” Me:😂 Literally Everyone Else: “Boo!”

[@bevvox]

Brandon H ditto

[@Jane-75-80]

I'm not so sure about that it is a such a punny pun I couldn't bear it

[@Ashley80005]

I thought it was so stupid it was funny. It gave me a chuckle.

[@jazzam8427]

7:45 Hilarious. It's moments like these that make me love these vids :)

[@jonathanainley5261]

I need Luke going "supercali-f*ck-you-all" in gif format to use for whenever I've been let down via group chat

[@Cooperma426]

Supercalif**kyouall XD

[@michaelgrnfld1]

Matt Cooper 😂

[@kellenmoore960]

LMAO

[@bevvox]

Her face though!

[@festethephule7553]

Matt Cooper I kinda wonder if that was improved.

[@michaelgrnfld1]

Feste the Phule seems like it

[@bendittrich1218]

I used video games to hide from my problems.

[@ailahmashod]

Ben Dittrich but what if video game IS your problems?

[@mrakasuryakusuma551]

Cryoprel Hide from problems with other problems

[@adrianlauer]

I still use video games to hide from my problems

[@justing5775]

No mention of Fallout... just crouch in the shadows and [HIDDEN]!

[@TheReZisTLust]

Justin G until they see you cause your not really hidden from other vantage points

[@Firion316]

That's basically most modern games with a "Stealth mechanic"

[@nomercy8989]

0:50 this joke actually worked for me. Good job!

[@wiley-e-coyote]

How bout in plain sight? In Legend of Zelda: Majora's mask, wearing the stone mask some how completely renders you invisible to almost everyone and all you have to do to get it is find a soldier and give him a potion.

[@cd1565]

Well Ellen, you couldn’t possibly be Agent 47 as he draws the line of his disguises at women’s clothing, even though he has the perfect condition for a wig. You know he’s BALD.

[@brodriguez11000]

Make for one SCARY looking woman.

[@A.Fort.]

I used to think that hiding on rooftops and high shelves and stuff was ridiculous until I realized how many times people have successfully hidden things from me by putting them on shelves slightly above my eye level.

[@HovektheArtist]

Come on guys no mention of any dark corner or right next to someone in broad daylight in any bethesda game

[@RainbowEssence-c3w]

To be fair, it's actually part of human psychology to not really look up all that often. Which is also why it's actually a pretty good place to hide. I don't recall the exact details but in my one marketing class we discussed it and I learned that human have a tendency not to look up all that often. Products that stores want us to buy are placed at eye level (for obvious reasons) and cheaper ones are placed below and above eye level.

[@FolkoMagipaw]

You... do realize one of the assassin's tenets are hide in plain sight right...? Accoding to assassin's creed logic, hiding in a hay stack makes 101% sense :D

[@laterkater4213]

The amount of effort you guys go to for a one line gag is why I love this channel so much. #chimchiminey

[@randomusernameforchris3392]

In order to be seen in a haystack someone would have to be Eagle eyed. (I’ve needled around with the only pun I could think of; otherwise it’d be a character assassination)

[@wierdalien1]

Random Username for Chris ouch.

[@randomusernameforchris3392]

Alistair Shaw There weren’t many other puns I could make. Sitting on it for too long would cause puns and needles (I actually wrote pins, first, I thought but puns is apt)

[@randomusernameforchris3392]

John Redican had a awful day but that made me laugh. Cheers

[@wierdalien1]

Random Username for Chris sorry my response should have been BOOO (boo) (Honestly I laughed, it was very good)

[@randomusernameforchris3392]

Alistair Shaw not a problem. It’d be a bit of a straw man to argue who’s puns are most cringeworthy between the presenters and commenters (Outsiders; maybe?)

[@jordanjohns7981]

Hey, give the AC guards some slack, they have noticed that hay is a hiding spot, but they have also noticed that every time someone goes near it, they disappear.

[@PokeMaster22222]

11:10 They do eventually, especially in Arkham Knight when they can throw thermobaric charges into the floor grates to cause AoE damage and destroy the grate it was thrown under and a few directly connected grates too.

[@QuintetMaster]

It's not in a stealth game, or even part of the gameplay for that matter. But in Final Fantasy VII, when you've broken into the Shinra science lab and then hear Professor Hojo coming, Cloud hides behind a box... that's facing the player, not Professor Hojo. He's still totally visible.

[@nguyenhuuvinh6492]

What about Overwatch or any FPS games for that matter? You could just hide in the objective zone forever and the other players would never find you because NOBODY.EVER.PLAY.THE.OBJECTIVE.

[@realism_logic]

There are people playing the objective. But you can avoid them as well: just pick Sombra and go invisible.

[@IndigoTail]

Or play bastion and there will be no witnesses

[@aiodensghost8645]

Nguyen Huu Vinh I did that on Destiny, killed so many unsuspecting players with the Madditor (while it was still good, before they nurfed Rangefinder... damn you, Bungie!!!)

[@IndigoTail]

I only play sombra to fuck with others minds and annoy the heck outta them by hacking all the health pack and emp all their shield off

[@Baby_Beers]

7:53 Luke I just have to say that I literally almost died laughing at the end of this

[@nguyenhuuvinh6492]

Batman: Why do the bad guys can never find me under the vent you ask. Well the answer is very simple... BECAUSE I'M BATMAN.

[@cacs2201]

Nguyen Huu Vinh a vent they would find him by looking down, lets remember that

[@cr300]

I cant remember for certain... But i think higher difficulty changes this.. like the guards are a bit less stupid

[@JachAnen]

Except for Deadshot. That darn laser.

[@slewone4905]

Those were vents? It's on the floor. You can open anywhere. You can see through it from the top.

[@thegoshdarnedbatman5257]

No I'm batman

[@SorenDaein]

Not surprised the Metal Gear series made this list. That cardboard box stunt is legendary. Not only did it appear as Solid Snake's taunt in his Super Smash Bros. Brawl appearance, it also got used in his Death Battle against Sam Fisher with the box itself playing a vital role in fooling Sam. Otacon ridiculed the idea as insane but it worked. Plus if we never got the "Cardboard Box Hiding Stunt" from the Metal Gear franchise, it's very unlikely the "Barrel Hiding Stunt" would have existed in Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker. Something tells me that was inspired by Metal Gear.

[@gabrielarchambault8034]

Theres a fan theory that says wayne enterprises owns Gothams ventilation systems and Wayne would have had them designes so he can fit in them

[@brodriguez11000]

But then you have the vents in alien:isolation, dishonored, etc. Heck one could do an entire segment on "hiding in vents", it's so common.

[@dares5852]

They will never suspect a cardboard box on a staircase I'M SUCH A GENO...*bullets everywhere*

[@loganwoods1590]

“Superkcali-f***-you-all”... love ya man

[@cabbagyboi9129]

A little surprised that the TF2 Spy didn't make the list. A paper mask... Really?

[@sorokor]

Tanner Merrill His cigarettes disguises him

[@Smashingrascal]

Tanner Merrill it's more a diguise than a hiding spot

[@cabbagyboi9129]

Okay, I guess that's fair...

[@nightcorecoder9703]

I'm in love with the pun ;-; new favorite channel

[@tzisorey]

Thanks, now I've got the urge to watch the 10-hour version of Barrel Beat.
