The budget for this video must have been massive! In reality this might have been one of the highest budget videos done in quite a while - the staffing per-hour cost of this one must have been off the charts.

[@hmm.sketchy6182]

realistically, i feel like knowing the ppl at LTT are very like-minded and would have DONATED their time to a chaotic shit-fest of an april fools video like this for the laughs. you know behind the scenes the amount of jokes banter and fun were off the charts just doing the shoot and the camaraderie was the best payment. but, i'm VERY certain linus paid them fairly, if not even had a bonus in-place for it. Dan and Sarahs acting just had me rolling. there's some... very, very underhanded jokes to be made regarding the 'red dye' coming out of the artistic department and i feel like one of them was made by someone during that shoot, resulting in linus' reaction at the cut.

Well Elijah was working on something in a tight space with someone else and when he went to talk to Linus, Elijah hit his head on a beam of some sort and was saved by the helmet. He probably would have gotten concussed or even fallen off the ladder. TLDR: The helmet was kind of a meme that turned into an actual preventative safety measure for Elijah.

Linus dropped the calendar, so he doesn't know the date today

[@user-lv6rn9cf8m]

@@paush51 No. Kiribati.

[@CrafterAurora]

@@paush51 no the country is called Kiribati, Kirimati is an island that makes up only part of the country, although Kirimati is in the section of Kiribati that has the first timezone in the world so both you and @I_love_learning are technically correct.

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

You guys and gals really REALLY put a LOT of work into this shoot.. wow I'm like SUPER impressed. Nice job team, seriously. I know you'll never see this comment, but Linus and all who you love and love you back, you're a wonderful part of my and my family's life. Thank you.

[@EnderKhaos]

4:18 "The Activate Windows" alert was a nice touch

[@سعیداکبرزاده-غ7ه]

That’s probably not specific to this video though. They use unactivated windows for their videos all the time :))))

[@DanielFerreira-ez8qd]

​@@سعیداکبرزاده-غ7ه well this is meant to be an editor workstation. That'd drive 'em nuts

Thanks for the PS5 jailbreak files!

[@tyguy849]

I hate my life I clicked on it

[@jimbus1999]

They even put the link to the PS5 jailbreaking guide in the description. Thanks, LMG!

[@nostopplease]

it worked for me, what about you?

[@kevin96chanel]

Worked for me.

[@bouncypear_net]

Handy guide to have around in case I ever get myself a PS5. Link seemed good!

[@LRM12o8]

The link doesn't seem to work, but I'll keep trying. I'm never gonna gove it up, even it lets me down!

[@transient_]

Now I only need to 'acquire' a PS5.

[@Lizard_geek]

wow actually included the files to jail break a ps5 in the description though. Worked great!

[@TheSolongsidekick]

What kind of a dingleberry doesn't hover over every link they click online to ensure it's not something stupid?

I’m always impressed how hard LMG goes on April Fools jokes😂

it's march...

Im supprised its not April Fools

[@nbt1254]

I just had the constant thought "Damn what a high effort shitpost"

[@Ade-zb6lt]

I mean, that part of the joke, right ???? RIGHT ?!?!!?!?!?! Edit: I too am joking, pls don't ban me. thx

[@Jeriks]

This seems like such a hassle i feel a bit bad for the employees lmao

17:22 Twist: Gary was saying "Arc" on purpose 😳

[@Ranhallen]

and of /course/ it's Dennis doing the whipping lol.

[@TheDuckter]

lol

[@lukasmoravec2489]

No! He's right! XDDD

[@sirmyself]

He was told that Arc was the safe word. Linus just didn't tell him it was also the wrong answer

[@Keldaria68]

Wait, do you mean this was planned from the start? Like he would go on a video and purposely say arc was better just to plant the joke for a future video. Like this was all scripted from the beginning? Who would think to do that. My god, you’d need like a whole room of writers to come up with a plot that complex.

[@bleuthoot]

2:17 Someone at the editing team must be really proud of that transition. That's smooth!

[@adfjasjhf]

That one was soooo smooth

[@c2thew]

Butttterrryy smooth transition. Holy cow

[@rcole7274]

Hopefully they didn't edit the opening of the video

[@c2thew]

You guys seriously outdid yourselves. Peak viral video. I’ll remember this video for years. Nice job LTT team

[@treywaller165]

Did anyone else spot the armed guard behind Sven from the Business team? F***ing hilarious!!

[@Moterloid01]

10:00 was scrolling through the comments while listening, didn't expect a pump shotgun as the weapon of choice for the Armed Guard

[@LlamaFluff]

As someone who’s being watching LTT for over 10 years, this is so nostalgic. Reminds me of when you did the video saying why you needed the “new” office (still waiting on that bronze GabeN statue btw!) It’s so cool you got to go back to the old office, I had no idea you still owned the property. Reminds me of all the amazing old videos, and the classic kitchen set :)

[@aurvaroy6670]

I'm pretty this is April fools. Otherwise, why did they expand their team so much and take over more offices?

[@LlamaFluff]

@@aurvaroy6670 yeah it's April Fools, it's just nice to see the old house again

[@Bremend]

It's amazing how you got so many people to fit in there, even assuming jumpcuts

[@jakebradley361]

12:09 i reckon they should've had security guards patrolling the house with paintball guns for any escapee employees

[@josepio4168]

Yeah "Paintball" gun

[@IraChesley-hg7eg]

Love how actual content was produced here! That one tech news, and the Wan show on the inflatable couch make so much sense now!

[@pahnazd]

Must have been difficult to shoot with how much everyone had to hold back their laughter during this whole ordeal

[@scottstuart1807]

You laughed at yourself and redeemed the plot while also giving us all an awesome laugh! This was so well done, thank you!
