The Untold Story of Stefán Karl: LazyTown’s Robbie Rotten

[@sanddagger36]

that is how you hook someone into your story. you tell people how successful it was and how easy it was, and then you drop the last bit "it took 7 years"

[@FlashBack_2024]

Right? Hahaha

My kid used to love this show. Nice to see a bit of background to it.

[@FlashBack_2024]

Thanks!

[@angelabajek6574]

I love the research and care you put into making this video. 💞 It's a beautiful tribute to his life and legacy. 💕

[@FlashBack_2024]

Aww, thanks! Glad you liked it! It was a labor of love, for sure!

[@a.t.m873]

I think he would've been a perfect Dr. Robotnick in the Sonic movies.

[@FlashBack_2024]

I never tought about that, but yeah, now that you said, I totally agree

RIP Stefan Karl Stefansson 1975 - 2018 He will always be number one

[@tamrinto]

I didn't know Stefan had tourettes syndrome until today.

[@FlashBack_2024]

It's always eye-opening to learn something new about someone. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@tamrinto]

Forever the internet's Number 1

[@RoseQuartz692]

This was amazing both your videos and yes he was a fucking legend

[@FlashBack_2024]

Thanks! and yes, he was

[@imaginekudryavka9485]

Came here from your latest video. I never knew much about LazyTown so this is fascinating. Can I ask why you're such a big fan, like what's your personal connection to it? Is it well known in Mexico (didn't you say that's where you're from)? Also, I like your voice!

[@FlashBack_2024]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really happy that you enjoyed the video and found it interesting, especially since LazyTown can be a bit of a hidden gem. As for why I'm such a big fan, I grew up watching it, and it had such a fun, positive message. But over time, I started to admire all the behind-the-scenes work, like how much effort went into creating the characters, how crazy the sets were, and the wonderful people who worked on it. It’s fascinating how much passion went into making the show. Oh, and I’m actually from Brazil, but no worries! LazyTown wasn't exactly popular here. The first two seasons were broadcasted a lot, but the third and fourth weren't. I only watched them as an adult, haha. And thank you for the compliment about my voice! That really means a lot. 🧡

He achieved immortal status as a legend. Though he was called up to heaven because they needed him his impact is forever. I really hope his hometown gets that statue. EDIT 10:48 got me ugly crying

[@FlashBack_2024]

It's amazing how some individuals can leave such a profound impact on so many lives. A statue would be a fitting tribute! And I also cried while editing, at least I know I didn't cry alone :,)

[@MisatoBestWoman]

@@FlashBack_2024 we all cried when his death happened it was heartbreaking

[@Kat-xp8zn]

Weird question incoming, but eh, did you by any chance found something about Magnus "allegedly" being rude at Stefan at some point? saw a bunch of nerds claiming in stefan's book you could notice something related to this...but i wasnt able to find something...

[@FlashBack_2024]

There's a moment in his book that he says that they tried to replace him as Robbie, specially after the amount of make up started to hurt his skin and he demanded more time between shots. He also complains about the number of producers and executives constantly interfering with the recordings, and says that sometimes he felt alone on set, which is why he became so close to Máni. But there's nothing clear or specific about Magnús, so it's hard to tell.

[@Kat-xp8zn]

@@FlashBack_2024 Oh alright, i should have known better than to listen to some clowns on tumblr, thank you for clarifying

[@FlashBack_2024]

Don't worry, people say a lot of things, it's okay to believe them.

[@williampj3573]

Well I didn’t know Stefan was bullied from his young age when he was at school So as a kid, I used to despise on his villain character Robbie but not himself in real life It’s because I hate villains But when I watch from wicked binge on KZbin which characters who survive squid game not only Only heroes but villains And when I watch from phantom strider’s video The five worst and best dreamWorks movies and Sony pictures animation for my teen years The Villain has make me change my mind and I don’t hate villains any more after I watch the videos Besides if Stefan never never diagnose with that cancer into 2014 then the show LazyTown as my childhood will continued for making episodes and seasons And they will make LazyTown the movie In 2018 so I have my 20th anniversary of LazyTown video if you want to check it out I think you’re gonna found it weird it’s because I done to mayor humdinger and ronno with the images That I use for them

[@FlashBack_2024]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I'm glad the video made you reflect on Stefán and the characters from LazyTown. Stefán really had an incredible life story, and it's interesting how he brought so much to Robbie's character, even as the 'villain'. As for your 20th anniversary LazyTown video, it must have been an interesting project for you to work on! Keep exploring your creativity
