The Lost Super Mario 64 Screamer

[@PigPigGamer]

HUGE UPDATE: A week ago, we managed to get our first huge find from the search since late 2020. In fact, we finally have some new FOOTAGE of the video! A user named sindexmon managed to find the uploader of the privated reaction, and so Mahvl contacted him with hopes of potentially getting the video. And guess what, we did! This footage not only gives us a better look at the video itself, but we even get to see the legendary thumbnail frame actually MOVE. This find is HUGE for the search and gives me more hope that maybe we can get the full thing this year. Check it out!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnKZZKCjaquhg9E

The early years of KZbin were plagued by jumpscare videos and 100% the reason why I grew the habit to always look at comments first. This along with the Mario kart Wii daisy circuit screamer were the two that I’ll never forget. What a shame this one is still lost!

I swear, lost media hunters are like new age, digital historians. It's insane how they find things and the pure luck they get with it. But sometimes things are lost in time like with most art.

[@BadWolfAce]

I swear, I've been trying to hunt down a specific screamer video that really got me as a kid. Chances are that it's lost to time but I remember it so vividly. It was an easter egg tutorial for Call Of Duty Zombie on the map Der Riese. After looking into a sniper scope into the distance, Reagan from The Exorcist jumpscares the viewer. Gave me a heartattack!

This video was the first screamer I ever saw and absolutely terrified me to the point of falling out of the chair at my aunts computer. Truly hope it’s found to relive it.

[@undergroundcentral6671]

I had nearly the exact same experience. I remember running upstairs from the computer and crying which caused my aunt to go downstairs and watch the video, didn’t have the same reaction as me of course lol.

Something about hearing a lost media still remaining lost is both sad, and yet fascinating. I always had this expectation that anything can be archived, even if only 1 person has whatever video people are finding saved. So to end up finding out that that’s not always the case is interesting. I’ve always found this case interesting, it had so much coverage, and yet there still hasn’t been any reuploads despite this specific video being watched a decent amount of times. My case of KZbin lost media has some sort of answer I was looking for, but like this, there isn’t any reupload. I’m sure most know who scaretheater is, his second channel being owler, etc, however what many don’t know is that originally that channel was once called, “ECWGaming,” this was back when I would watch creepypasta videos and a few years ago, I was trying to find a creepypasta series that was dedicated to one of them (Casey’s cave), only to find out they are gone, however most of the people in the original creepy pasta narration video (made by TheBrotherMachado) also remember this series as well. The only evidence of this video existing is another person who only used snippets of it as a background, but it was only for a short while. Then of course it was found out that scaretheater was the owner of that channel, right before he would change the channel, however I’m not exactly sure if he has any of those videos archived (something tells me he likely does not), so just like the Mario screamer, it’s likely gone for good unless someone that has it saved finds out people are looking for it (which again I doubt). With that said, I’ve always found lost KZbin videos to be more interesting to me. Like despite being a big platform, some, if not many videos are usually gone, some are archived, but most of them are likely gone.

I really like this lost media case for how unique and interesting it is, since normally lost media hunts are for official media from already established parties. However, Super Mario 64 Big Star Secret is a fake tutorial video of SM64 made by some random KZbinr during KZbin's infancy, which sets it apart from other pieces of lost media, and I find that pretty cool.

[@SwaggyG_2102]

Crazy to think what is basically just another one of those screamers from the late 2000s ended up amassing such a wild goose chase online.

[@V_MC]

Finding Lost Media seems so fun tbh, i'd love to be apart of something like that at some point- just searching for a thing that's been deleted but may still remain in the dark, dusty corners of the internet. Seeing how much information you can find on it and working with a whole group of other researchers and theorists. In this case, it must've felt like such an accomplishment to get the actual creator of the lost video to answer most of those questions you've been trying to find answers to for such a long time. Congrats to everyone who researched this project and finally got their answers. Take care, everyone.

This might be the best video I've seen on this lost media case, it just feels way more comprehensive in it's info than the others. An interesting detail you forgot to mention is that it's been confirmed that Database was the AudioSwap song featured in the video. The reason we know this is because on a KZbin reupload of the song, there is a comment from around 2011 saying that they got there from Big Star Secret. It's on this video in particular, you're probably gonna have to scroll a bit before finding the comment: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fInUgaxoq7Gaa9k

As far as him having the video goes, he’s not QUITE sure if he has it or not, but he did say that he’d check to see if he does. He’s also going to be contacting some of his friends (who are also into the same things as he is) to see if they know anything as well, as well as doing some more digging into the subject in general. So yeah, the guy is starting to go on his own small hunt for the video, so that’s nice. His girlfriend’s apparently helping out as well. We obviously don’t have concrete confirmation just yet that he has it or not, but considering the fact that he both recognizes the video and thinks that either he or one of his friends has it and is currently looking for it is a good sign imo. Even if this guy doesn’t have it, maybe one of his friends does.

[@robertanderson9447]

It's not Big Star Secret, but there's this other Mario 64 video I remember seeing possibly in 2010 or 2011, and haven't found it again in years. I don't remember its name, but it was telling you how to unlock Luigi via text commentary, and I recall the editing being more convincing than most other videos. Some of the steps included "Go to Lethal Lava Land, do NOT take damage or you must reset the game. Go into the volcano, dive into the lava waterfall at this exact spot" at which point the video froze for several seconds, before cutting to something. It was either Mario falling behind the mirror in the castle, or appearing in front of a Luigi painting. I have sadly forgotten the order of events. Once Luigi was unlocked, the player showed off his abilities which included a special triple jump that put him in a floating state, much like in the Mario 64 prototypes. The video ended on a black screen with text saying something like "This video was an elaborate hoax." That stuck with me because I had been taking actual notes, and had to ask my mom "What's a hoax?" Does this ring a bell for anybody? It's been bothering me for so long.

This video is so good and so interesting, you should most definitely do some more lost media related videos, and it looks like it's getting some decent views. Also I have a request for you, please make a video about the lost/unreleased Shrek animation test from 1996 aka. I Feel Good. I actually helped find those snippets for the Shrek I Feel Good test last year (as of writing this comment) so yeah, feel free to credit me if you make a video about this case. Also in my honest opinion, I have way more hope of the Shrek test animation being found/fully released than for this SM64 Screamer video getting found :(

[@Laszkus]

Some new frames was found of shrek test animation

[@PigPigGamer]

Shrek I Feel Good is another one of my most wanted pieces of lost media, and seeing you help uncover some of it last year was really cool :)

[@ReallyRealTime]

Had we not been so hellbent on unlocking the weeg himself, than the videos deletion would have never happened now would it?

[@randomuser8390]

I might be missing something, but I have a theory. So there was a long hunt for an 80's pop song called "Ulterior Motives" that lasted for several years. A user named Carl92 uploaded the song claiming he found it lying around in his house somewhere. It turns out that all along it was in a porno that Carl92 had watched but didn't mention since he was embarrassed about watching porn and sent people on a wild goose chase to see if the song had a life outside of the film. What I'm trying to say is that I think LotusMan17 still has the video and isn't telling anyone. Why do I think that? Well keep in mind that LotusMan17 was just fine with giving kids nightmares for the sake of his own amusement. What makes you think he wouldn't keep those kids hunting for the very same video years later for his own amusement as well?

[@FallenA1]

Omg I think you got something going on

[@randomuser8390]

It may be a conspiracy theory but it's still a possibility.

[@briansweeney2089]

It was found

[@UltraCenterHQ]

Someone should make a fake version but the jumpscare is blue Mario twerking

[@biichann6833]

I’d love for you to cover the Post my mouth game! Made by the company responsible for fruity pebbles, I played that game so much as a kid. It’s only partially found. One mini game is still lost that sticks so clearly in my mind where it was almost like flappy bird but a 2000’s flash game. You had to collect purses and jewelry for your mouth avatar

[@FurKid_the_Gg_roo_99]

We'll be getting Luigi in Mario 64 with this one!

[@mayzdev]

this is something i dont have high hopes for but really hope is found. I recommend also checking out the hunt for the Copeland Herobrine Stream. This and that are what i hope to be found most of all!

[@dillynmario]

Pigpig movie is also lost media, you should look into that one, seems interesting

[@disastrous579]

Big update: The uploader of Screamer Prank - FAIL has apparently been identified.

[@PigPigGamer]

Yea funnily enough, Jason uploaded that

[@disastrous579]

@@PigPigGamer Yeah I saw, lol. Legit the craziest anime plot twist of all time. Although, there are some obvious complications with getting it now because Jason has gone silent. I obviously don't want anyone bugging him more than he probably has been bugged. Since I heard that they found the uploader through the metadata, I wonder if the video itself is in there somewhere so we could mayyybe get the vid that way? IDK how metadata works at all so correct me if I'm wrong lol

[@TailsGaming1999]

@@disastrous579hey I just wanna give you a update disatrous. So it turns out it’s probably not him as no one else could get the metadata thing to work and the person who did so turned out to be a raider

[@ContraryASMR]

Wait, I vaguely recall that 'super mario 64 secrets: Hidden Switch palaces' video seen in the Recommendeds of the Archive Page, and it's not up anymore. Did that video have any original content, or was it just Stock Game Footage

[@c00lac0la]

If the creator ever wanted to, he could remake the screamer and upload it. It wouldn’t be the original people sought after ofc, but it would be something. That’s all up to the creator ofc, I understand if he wouldn’t wanna recreate something he made years ago.

[@PigPigGamer]

I think Lotus is actually considering making his own remake at some point, as I've heard the idea of it being mentioned several times

[@disastrous579]

@@PigPigGamer Where did Lotus say that, out of curiosity?

[@PigPigGamer]

@@disastrous579 I think he mentioned it in the old big star secret server before that one went to shambles due to poor moderation

I distinctly remember watch this, but it was definitely after the music was replaced. The video doesn't do any edit to the zombie and the video ends right after it (or I got scared and changed video lol idk)

CONGRATULATIONS FOR FINDING (a part of) IT

[@bashfulwolfo6499]

It’s strange, I feel that this is the first time I’ve heard about this video, but the username and the video contents itself seem extremely familar. Wondering if I once stumbled onto it years ago and just forgot about it? I used to binge watch anything and everything Easter egg-related (tbh I still do lmao)

[@ShB-o8h]

By any chance lotusman17 have the phone that he recorded the gameplay. it might be possible it have the gameplay footage

[@UnfortunateSolar]

It's a shame the video got taken down though all because they fell for a silly little prank

[@-theyrehome-880]

You've done great on all your videos, I am glad to see what yu make next whether that be creepy pasta related or what not.

[@youtube_bat3811]

it’s been partially found in barely interpretable quality and no audio, but it needs to be cropped from a reaction video

[@oxitape1563]

The very simple yet enthusiastic “Discuss.” from the Mario SpongeBob video will never not be funny to me.

[@Blurryisme]

23:51 Hey I wonder who made that :) In all seriousness I did not expect to see my dumb recreation of it to blow up as it did, I had to clarify it was not the actual video because it got to the point where people were posting it to the lost media wiki's discord server and somehow didn't notice the very obvious creepypasta tier ending to the video. But hey, it was fun while it lasted :P

[@PigPigGamer]

LOL yea I’ve seen a billion ppl send ur video in the discord thinking it’s real

[@LegionEagles22]

I saw PigPigGamer notification and immediately clicked. Love your videos, bro!

[@SCLStuntFan]

So I'm just gonna name-drop myself here. Hi, I'm SCL, and years ago, I unwittingly started a search for lost media. Don't ask me for info; I don't have any. I just saw the screamer as a kid and posted about it, without thinking it would get singled out as THE screamer worth researching all those years later.

[@Th3_C0der_And_Th3_Gamer]

hey update on the video almost recovered the whole thing expect to see it in about 2025 on about april i think if it gets here sooner we will be able to get the footage we got

[@wickedviscus2139]

lol i saw this video when i was 6 or 7, really wish i could find it! one of the first screamers i came across. i remember the screamer being more of a barn/ scarecrow. and right before the screamer, i remember reading "AND....." then it came out

[@TailsGaming1999]

Alot of people remember the “AND!!!!” And I can definitely get why you thought a barn/scarecrow cause the zombie kinda looks like that

[@anasgamer5629]

What's the name of the song in 25:22

[@KyanBladez]

Since you made a Mario 64 video It would be pretty cool if you ranked Video game creepypastas :DD This video was also very cool
