Badger Badger Badger 20 Year anniversary edition (Vanilla)

[@moobit]

Mushroom! MUSHROOM! (decomposes into dust due to realising own age)

[@priuskiller426]

It’d just grow bigger realizing. Mushrooms don’t ever die.

[@InquisitivelyUninterested]

God I know the feel. Saw this and was like “oh man! It’s been redone” and then I looked for what year I watched the original💀

[@nathaniellindner313]

If anything, millennials’ impending decomposition due to our extreme old age will just make the mushroom bigger

[@EngineerRiff]

@@priuskiller426Well actually, I searched it up. Mushrooms only live for a few days and then just disappear

[@PluvioZA]

Damn.. I can't believe it's been 20 years already. Weebl, the fact that you still think to do stuff like this after all this time really makes you a legend!

[@PluvioZA]

See ya'll in 20 years.

[@hjalfi]

Possibly the single greatest internet meme of all time. ...although now I think of it, aren't the entire top 5 all Weebl videos?

[@laukinath194]

I would argue All Your Base sticks better, but this is such an original, definitely pure early internet fun!

[@AlexR_44]

I like "The End of the World" just a littttllle tiny bit more than badgers. but that's a bit newer.

[@MemeSlayer]

@@laukinath194all your base wasn’t created by the internet though

[@Washeek]

more importantly, all your base arguably didn't touch as many people due to it originally being a tier 2 meme. @@MemeSlayer

​@@laukinath194my thoughts as well. This is good, but all your base is legend.

[@Waffletigercat]

Give those people who did the mocap for the badgers a raise. And the mocap for the mushroom deserves an Oscar.

[@PureRok]

Mocap? You mean to tell me these aren't real badgers, mushrooms, or snakes!?

[@LegendStormcrow]

@@PureRok Well, it's mocaps of the actual badgers and snakes. They are kind of old and needed a lot of de-aging.

[@Waffletigercat]

@@PureRok Didn’t you watch the featurette the other day? They mocapped everything for this version.

[@Shifsabre]

​@@Waffletigercatonly one of the surviving actors had the energy to jump properly, sadly, so they just used his performance for all of them. As for the mushroom, it was portrayed by a spore of the original mushroom. The snake was portrayed by Barack Obama for some reason

[@stevetayler9518]

I hear they'll use the same technology for their upcoming tour. Badger: Voyage.

[@aericwolf]

Amazing that it's been 20 years... a bit sad that this version won't slowly go out of sync after watching it for 15 minutes though.

[@i.m.evilhomer5084]

It's amazing to know that the original is 20 years old now. It's also amazing that the badger series of videos have become anthems for badger conservation.

[@Rukhage]

Oh no! A cull!!

[@ThePureSynergist]

Haha. Sick! That’s epic.

[@ScarletFlame101786]

Omg same here XD my little girl loves this

[@JJsiN84]

20 years, and I still love the harmonies in the "SNAKE" section. 😆 😆

[@StarlitSwamp]

It’s always been my favorite part too ! Sounds like the dude is dying over there. 😂

[@squidwardonachair1852]

Its neat to have a new badger animation to celebrate its 20th anniversary! Cant believe its been so long!

[@MasonBladePromos]

Rly tho it’s nuts

[@bandanathereaper9863]

I honestly thought it was older...

[@Tranceplant82]

I remember 20 years ago, I was like: I can't believe I watched this on a loop for like 10 minutes straight. Today I watched every second of it and would replay it again and again. 😂😂 Thank you for this highly addictive masterpiece.

[@stealthbeatle4945]

I can't tell if you've lost control in general or if it's because of the music video. hopefully the latter.

[@iamhereblossom1588]

Remember the variation that went something like goal it’s a goal ooooh it’s a goal! scored by England England England on albino black sheep? That one pops into my mind all the time. Wondering if that’s on here too.

[@ToxicTurquoise454]

Indeed!

20 years................. I was there Gandalf.................

[@cdname47]

Sadly all the badgers and snakes featured in the original video are long since dead. So nice of their descendants to get together to honour their fallen ancestors.

[@spicy_nutmeg]

thanks to you i just did a lil google and learned that honey badgers can live for 24 years sooooooo this may still be our bestie badger after all!!

They actually are the same badgers in canon. Guy's got mocaped so the software could de-age them. One uses a walker.

20 years later and I can still remember the lyrics!

[@DJ4x]

Loving the bass synth in this one compared to the original. Crazy that after 20 years we're going to get new mixes of this.

[@Kaiber_Phoenix]

Even after 20 years it never gets old gotta say though that "save the badgers version" from a few years back you did was a "flash" of genius.

[@Lawnie]

Am I supposed to be doing something? Yes. Am I going to sit here watching the entirety of this video despite that? Also yes.

[@bskorupk]

A warm childhood memory of mine was waiting for 20+ minutes for the dialup to conjure up new things like a crystal ball, be it nerdy-info sites, webcomics, or trippy loops like this one, It was always a magical experience, Thanks Weebl! :)

[@TheArkaslavskChannel]

It's a mystery to me why this man still doesn't have a million subs

[@user-on7du7lc9m]

Because he already has 1 million badgers

[@LegendStormcrow]

He's been busy fighting the King of the Beavers with magical Trevor.

[@Wolvenworks]

Actually yeah why DOESN’T he have 1 mil subs? We need to spread the word!

[@davidfernelz]

Because KZbin wasn't his main platform and this is also older than KZbin

[@eMorphized]

I'm pretty sure he's already got a Webby

[@uattias]

This was 1 day ago? I can't believe the legend is back.

[@Dudebrush4pwood]

20 years of knowing exactly how to vocalize my terror upon seeing a snake. thank you, Weebl.

[@pipinfresh]

I can't believe it has been 20 years. I remember sitting around the computer in class with my friends laughing hysterically at the original.

[@mastermesian9821]

20 years?!?!? 😳 Where have the years gone. So much nostalgia here and this is an excellent remake. Thank you for this. ❤

[@M-eye-uh-rawr-D]

A relic from the internet that was. Weebl is one of the best, and I'm glad he's still animating

[@ComfyMarius]

Up to this video I was convinced I was only able to be watching these sorts of animations on loop as a kid, but I felt myself falling back into it and thinking "man if this was a loop I would've let it run for ages probably" - Good to know some things don't change, cheers for all bops, Weebl!

[@FalconSpirit]

On PC, you can right click the video and pick loop. On mobile, turn on loop from the settings button on the video.

[@sagacity6446]

When 13 badgers appear, that's when it gets REAL crazy.

Huh... That (Vanilla) in the title feels like an omen of some sort. There's going to be a not vanilla one too? Anyway, congrats on 20 Years. Looking forward to another twenty of weird and catchy songs.

Thank you for brightening my day! Nostalgic and addictive video like 20 years ago! xD

Always a pleasure to revisit the classics.

[@Starhawke_Gaming]

Just need the 10hr loop of this now and it will be peak nostalgia for the early 2000s KZbin experience

[@ferretyluv]

KZbin didn’t exist in the early 2000s. You’re thinking of Newgrounds. KZbin came out in 2005 and got big in 2006. Also, there was originally a time limit of 10 minutes. It was expanded to 10 hours in like 2008 or 2009.

[@Starhawke_Gaming]

@@ferretyluv ok, late 2000s. Thanks

[@chrisbg99]

20 years. I was just a 20 year old young man watching that video endlessly for whatever reason. I wasn't even stoned. Just easily amused. Now I am almost 41 and Badgers is still somehow extremely amusing.

[@MidnightSonnet]

I'm 41 and this is way more amusing to me now than it was back then for some reason. 😅

[@mattm7220]

So devastated this wasn't made to seamlessly loop if the Loop option is selected in KZbin, for that pure nostalgic flash video feeling

[@lestranged]

it still slaps, need a 10 hour loop.

[@SteevyTable]

When I was in band, when a game against Wisconsin came up, I think we spent about as much time singing this as we did actually practicing their fight song.

[@Anamnesis]

Disturbing to realize that if we went back yet another 20 years, we'd be in 1983.

[@siafhir]

Wow. 20 years already! Nice re-rendering, but one thing I really liked about the original is that the badgers were not quite in sync with each other. It gave the scene a more natural look. That got lost in the new one as they're perfectly in sync.

[@MatthewRamirezful]

Hard to believe I was 10 when this came out. Only thing I can say is thank you Weebl for the amazing songs.

[@DaveMastor]

In the original flash, if you let it run for long enough, it would gradually become more desynced between the audio and graphics. Thanks Weebl for the good times over these two decades!

[@Classixish]
