You got it mixed up on the last one. The one where she stands there is actually the real easter egg.

I think oddheader got a closer look at the Witcher easter egg, notably the guy who recorded the clip that odd used, the guy who recorded the clip is named Robert if I recall, he was pretty clever with what he did, instead of standing next to the fire place and then zooming in with the camera mode, he placed Geralt close to where the figure would appear and then switched to camera mode, zoomed out, getting the figure to pop up and then zoomed in again. I don't think odd knew at the time that is was a reused asset, but I do know that from your video so the lesson here is to watch more than one Easter Egg channel so that you can get a little extra info I also want to add that I did see Slender Goat in the demo version of Goat Simulator, but I can't remember if the rest of that stuff was also there, like the tree and tombstones. I'd replay it to find out but I probably wouldn't know how to find that location again since I found it by complete accident
