I did it! I just finished watching every episode of the Why Files! It took discipline, dedication, reduced productivity at work, ignoring my family, and a bottle of Visine.

Whether it be what you want to hear or the truth in the false ones that try to deceive. Please keep doing what you do best! Finding to find the truth for the rest of us!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@iscovidoveryet7828]

I used to go to a Catholic French school in St.Catharines Ontario with a kid in my 4th grade class in the late 60's, who began getting attacked by a Poltergeist at home. I remember teachers whispering among themselves when talking about what was happening to him, and waving the sign of the cross. Was always nice kid, we liked him. Eventually Police were called to his home, and even filed unexplainable events in their reports that they'd witnessed for themselves. He left school that spring, and heard his family moved to Quebec. That was pretty much the last we'd heard of him, but the events made it into local Police Reports and The St.Catharine Standard newspaper.

[@nicoleeolee1209]

I think it's really cool to see how far you've come, how much the channel's grown! Love the compilations!

[@TheRealYedahs]

Found your channel like two years ago, sent my brother a link to a video - he’s been subscribed and watching ever since as well - love the content, enjoy your time off.

[@NicoleZXO]

You are my Absolute Favorite Channel!!! Number 1 on KZbin all these other channels have nothing on you. Plus Hecklefish is a plus he’s a sassy little fishy. We love you AJ please keep on trucking.

Watch your health and mental health guys. 🙏🏻🩷 Sending good vibes to you all. 💖💖 Shalom. 🕊️✌🏻

ok

[@stumbleinn597]

Reading between the lines, it looks like you may be going through a lot of stress AJ, whatever you do look after yourself first. The channel and indeed all of us will still be here

[@user-zr8vb9vg9n]

MIB is after him for exposing too much info.

[@thomasgirty6397]

excellent things are worth waiting for !!!! one of the best series on KZbin.

[@BrakerOfficialMusic]

Definitely watched this entire video a couple times over while waiting for the new drop. Hope you're enjoying your time off and come back rejuvenated! :)

[@themightytitan4157]

Have a great break. It's great seeing these compilation vids and how the show improved over the years.

[@tparr01]

You guys knock it out of the park EVERY week. Have a good, well earned rest. We Love you!

[@The..Dark..Knight]

Ok, the "SE7EN" spoof about "Hecklekicks" was awesome! "I might have overreacted." 😆 You guys never cease to amaze me. I remember finding you guys from the beginning and was always really impressed with the quality of content that you put out from day 1. I knew I was witnessing something special. I'm happy for you guys and you deserve the rapid growth and positive feedback from everyone. I think the biggest thing that always set you apart were telling the stories as if they were real. And only going over their believability or the credibility of those involved at the wrap-up. And of course Hecklefish is a stroke of genius.

[@krtallygirl]

Came to the comments to say the same thing! Amazing work!

[@jtbaying2312]

I want the high Tops.

[@thundershirt1]

No AJ, YOU are appreciated! Take off as long as you need. I'll be here when you get back.

[@CS-cp5io]

Well-deserved break! Thank you for your talent, and time, to this amazing channel! Enjoy! 😊

[@sexgod57able]

Ed and Lorraine Warren was one of my all time favorite episodes. So happy to hear it again. Thank you.

[@vCASTORTROYv]

Please take your time AJ. Your true support will be waiting and always greatly appreciate the work you’ve put in, in such a short time. Enjoy your free time. ❤

[@frostwireless]

Thank you for posting in the afternoon, it's difficult to watch late at night, but i cant help but stay up as long as possible to enjoy every Thursday!

[@eire542]

Same usually have to wait up till 2am when it comes out my Time

[@TheFerretLives]

Same here, you must be in the UK too? Yep I used to watch the premieres live at 2am then watch After Files until nearly 6! I was pretty much nocturnal last year but my sleep is almost normal now so harder to do

[@tylerpeters2624]

I agree, post at 6 instead of fucking 9 on the east coast.

[@eire542]

@@TheFerretLives no Ireland but same thing same time I must not be the only adult who watches his show 😅

[@Swashbuckling13]

You are my favorite channel! I'll be here whenever you get back from your well-deserved vacation, AJ!

[@jimhickeyjr]

I know you're only doing these little marathons because you're on vacation, but I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE these two hour marathon episodes!! you should do this more often

[@TheWhyFiles]

Glad you like them!

[@AmazonEventer]

Thank You AJ, Hecklefish and all the team!! Hope you're enjoying your break, and thank u for the compilation! ❤❤❤

[@dazzledunn-deal1448]

Aj, if you happen to see this please know that you are so respected, liked, admired and loved by my family. When i saw a video recently that seemed like someone may want toncause you sabotage my heart went out to you immediately. Please know that your character speaks for itself and my family is praying for you! ❤❤❤

[@enterthecatalyst]

I have a stigmatism so I thought you were praising and pleading for your life to AI.

[@MrArtVein]

​@@enterthecatalystI also have an astigmatism, only reason I knew to double take is cuz it's my nickname too 😂

[@speedyz28]

The amount of work You do is astounding. I Love the extra long format!!

[@GenXPrepper]

Love this show! I love the story followed by the facts. I can't wait for each new episode, have watched all of them! We'll all still be here when you're ready. Enjoy the much deserved you time.

[@mickeyknoxx8371]

This show is a staple in my family’s household. Literally the only show I’ve followed loyally since the x-files

[@shawnkeys4712]

Not surprised you need a break. This is an amazing channel but it must be a massive thing to develop each week. Thanks for all the effort you put in to bring us these amazing episodes. Know that YOU are appreciated

[@wemii76]

This was really cool. Granted you deserve just a break in general, but as a big fan will say we appreciate the compilations.

[@contessamessa7688]

I think you and Hecklefish have been fun and informative from the start. One of the few shows my 16 year old watches with me.

[@churrle8528]

You deserve the break man. Can’t tell you how much we all appreciate you AJ! Thanks for all you do. I just got 90 minutes of the deepest tissue massage I’ve ever have had. Highly recommend.

[@nsedwards]

I love the format you've gone with, tell the story as if it's proven and then give the actual facts, perfect. You guys are awesome, please keep it up :)

[@Savvykitten]

I've watched this more than once the past few days. often leave it in the background while i got to bed as white noise. Me and my mom have loved this channel for years, AJ please take all the time you need to relax. We'll still be here supporting you and eagerly waiting for the next video. 😊

[@reneeharvey777]

AJ, you deserve a lot of money for your WF show. The amount of time and energy it takes to research the information for your stories is extreme! I truly hope that someone recognizes your skill and hard work so that you can be properly compensated.

[@MartynColebourne]

This is honestly one of the best if not the best shows ive had the pleasue of watching snd i genuinely look forward to each and every new episode. Pls keep up the fantasic work x

[@SilkySime_TheAussieGameCat]

I discovered The Why Files about a year ago. Since then it is my favourite thing to watch OVER ANYTHING on any platform. I cannot thank everyone involved with bringing this content to us all. Got my wisdom teeth ripped out yesterday. Choice for headphones? Had to be Hollow Moon. Cheers legends

[@kaykaystern]

My favorite channel too‼️‼️🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️

[@ladyjaysindeore1113]

AJ and Hecklefish make my week in any form. I hope y’all feel better soon and enjoy your time off!

[@isaiahfoa2566]

Thank you for all your videos. I hope your well and rested ❤️

[@mr.g-sez]

[@mickmouse4650]

Hecklefish would never sign that contract!

[@charlesmacka]

@@mickmouse4650 plus they could never afford his fee

[@bretdaley6869]

Dude can act

[@tiffanymorales11]

They are better than Hollywood Stars!!! AJ is one of the real ones!

[@justinoliver1984]

Well said ​@@tiffanymorales11

[@michaelt2939]

Imagine my face when I saw how long this video is. My Saturday night is sorted! Thanks, AJ, from NE England.

[@donnyrichter3729]

Dude everyone needs a day off. Plus what you do is important. I struggle to find meaningful content. You got it all. Ancient civs and comedy. You are providing people like me happiness which can be hard to find for an outsider like me. You sir are one of my heros.

[@Celtopia]

I have to say,.....your sing at the end, is my tune i walk to work with every morning, and is a true inspirational tune for when i feel stressed.....thank you for being you.

[@jolinhsu1149]

I totally enjoy this channel. I regret that I did not find this earlier. Now thanks to this wonderful idea of “combined rerun”, I can watch from the beginning. Thanks a bunch!

[@capnohan]

.... combined rerun..... Love it....lmao

[@SuperSolkanar]

You, my good Sir...are truly a legend, but even legends need a break... Take all the time you need, everyone here will be joining you again when you get back...and know that you...are appreciated ✌🏻

[@CatatonicOne]

A BIG "THANK YOU", for the videos you make. Since discovering your channel I have been obsessed with watching. Thank YOU for all you do to bring us such amazing, informative content. ❤❤❤
