Finding the Origins of Bizarre Media

[@ilovechai2520]

Imagine you decide to watch some tv and the first ad you see is the exact meme video you laughed at 5 minutes ago on your phone

[@sexygirlmax2019]

Happened to me when that one Hatsune Miku Polka song started playing in a commercial

[@KingLoof]

@@thepinkestpigglet7529 oh i remember that. and it was weirdly hyper realistic too

[@phantomhourglass13]

i remember seeing this creepy image of a kid standing in a hallway at night (apparently he was a victim of some kind of crime scene too) in like a "creepy images" short and then later that year seeing it covered on a commercial

[@phantomhourglass13]

the image was really dark and looked like it was taken from a camera, the kid was by a staircase and his eyes were glowing (also like on a camera)

[@mateuscaetano380]

0:50 I can only imagine your friends showing you a meme, waiting for you to laugh while you think "hmm... what's the context and origin of this thing?"

[@heart4brainzz]

i rlly appreciate these videos cuz they have that nice spooky vibe with the editing but its not discussing super serious topics like a lot of other youtubers who do true crime now

[@WeaponizedToyCar]

Is it weird that I’m the opposite? I’d rather have KZbinrs who make stuff like this take a more comedic approach.

[@WhatDillionYT]

@@WeaponizedToyCar Same tbh

[@princessCashel]

@@WeaponizedToyCar I'm with you. Just because it's a mystery doesn't mean it needs to have a spooky vibe. Love these kind of videos, but I feel like the creators try too hard to give it a mysterious vibe and overdo it.

[@bluemagician9724]

@@WeaponizedToyCar I'm both, I don't mind when Dantavius uses phrases like "public scooting" as algospeak but I also like when people conspiratorially talk about that one shitty creepypasta from 2009 about Felix the Cat ripping his own face off and Vinesauce Joel's face being underneath and declaring that he is *het*erosexual

Ok so while I don't doubt that someone made a version of the virus that does this, the original "you are an idiot" website did *not* have the power to wipe hard drives. It wasn't even exactly a virus, it had an annoying and malicious script for sure, but the worst thing that it could do was make computers crash because of the sheer amount of pop-ups that it opened.

While it is probably not completely impossible to find the bowling alley where this video was made, it is not very likely either. There are literally thousands of these small 9-pin bowling alleys in Germany, very often they are part of an inn or restaurant, and in many cases they are used only by the local bowling clubs at their designated time windows - and that's also the reason why the look is relatively plain, they simply don't have to attract customers with fancy design. Trying to identify this particular bowling alley would be much like searching for the famous needle in the haystack, I'm afraid.

[@AL-lh2ht]

To add to the bowling part is modern bowling has existed for a long time, like pre industrial revolution long. Bowling allies were also often made in rich people houses or large buildings. So there are a lot of old and kinda weird looking bowling alleys around.

[@CB66069]

Idk. I would probably not search Germany because this post is in english.

[@georgflausch]

@@CB66069 Who knows how many times it has been reposted? Probably someone just inserted an English text overlay at some point. We don't know where the video originally came from. And at least to me the entire appearance of the bowling lane looks quite German. I speak from experience ...

[@taxisalad]

The fact people heard the You Are an Idiot jingle in Rick Dees' Candid Phone and immediately concluded "this audio is still from the source that has no evidence whatsoever, trust me" and DIDN'T check the rest of the show. If they had, they would have found the other jingles made by an identical choir with the same melody. The fact they didn't and somehow took it as confirmation it's from the old speculated source with no evidences tells me they didn't give a shit about finding the actual source, which makes it baffling that they would try acting like they knew it for sure.

[@Skibdootz]

[@ivannintendo]

The clip of the yeti about to fall, and then tumbling down are two different clips cleverly edited together. As the yeti approaches the camera, it is closer by the armpit, but when it's falling it leaves with the camera closer by the butt. Also, it rolls down completely stiff, in the same pose as a teddy bear, so my guess is that it's just the stuffed suit. EDIT: Oh yeah, he pretty much says it 🤓🤓🤓

The Kegel one hit me close to home. I have a faint memory that as a kid, my class held a small event where we went to this kegel bahn behind our running track. And the video looks so much like i remember it looking. I have heavy dought its from my town, since its just some small town no one cares about, and comming across something speaking english is very rare. (Its in Mecklemburg Vorpommern) But it also had flower pots next to the track and a small room infront of the track with a windows. Same floor color too. But i also remember the lanes being very close to eatch other and the room getting smaller in the back, it may be just thru the shitty video but it dosnt seem as narrow as i remember. I have no idea if this would help anyone pin point where that one would be located but i thought i may share my memorys still.

Little glass gremoli literally is the most disturbing thing I've seen on the Internet that wasn't actual gore, and even then I feel like it's coming up almost on par with Funkytown I saw it for the first time and imagined this weird scenario in which I expressed disgust for it and was forced by those around me to approach and apologize to it, before it blinked at me, grimacing judgmentally, turning its head away as it did, before turning back and lunging as it pronounced something terrible and irrevocable at me that my mind left blank as I imagined this, even now just looking at it I have these weird thoughts of it sucking my eyes out or degrading me into something like itself, and all of these because of the raw terror that that thing's face instills in me

The cursed Joey picture could’ve been a website game in the early 2000s. I don’t remember what it was called where you could put two pictures together and it would make a combination of the pictures. Someone probably took the picture of Joey and mixed it with a cow or some kind of animal, because the tongue looks similar, they could’ve used that website hope this helps.

Idk if you are gonna reply to this, but you could talk about a really strange clip that i found on a video called "امرأة تدعي أنها السيدة مريم العذراء"، theres a whole playlist of videos called that, but im talking about one of them, that seems to be a compilation of videos of people with genu recurvatum, a condition that causes your knees to bend backwards like a dog, one clip of that video that has latched on to me for months, is of a woman with the condition, walking on all fours, wearing a hijab, in black and white, the background seems to be of a desert, that combined with the hijab, tells me this is from the middle east. That was long, damn, anyway, i couldnt find anything else about that clip, so it'd really help if you could look into it and see where it originated from.
